After Bi Ling and Yu Xiaowei left Tubo, they took the ashes of the forest period down the Lancang River and returned to the Taoyuan Wonderland. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info Seeing the surrounding green mountains again, the blooming peach blossoms, and the flowing water, the scene of the first meeting with Lin Ziqi seemed to be unfolding in front of their eyes again. They buried Lin Ziqi and Murong Ying together, sprinkled flower petals, offered wine, and mourned.

Coming out of the peach paradise, it was already dusk. Where do we go next? This is a question that Biling has been thinking about. But before she could figure it out, a big net fell from the sky, covering her and Yu Xiaowei in it. Yu Xiaowei quickly pulled out the iron sword, cut through the big net, and rolled out one by one. But Biling had no weapons on her body, not only could she not escape, but the more she struggled, the more trapped she became. Yu Xiaowei was about to come forward to rescue, when suddenly more than a dozen people jumped down from the surrounding trees, dressed in seedling costumes and holding sharp blades, between Xiaowei and Bi Ling. Yu Xiaowei waved his iron sword, rushed up, and immediately fell into a heavy siege. Two Miao people took the opportunity to tie Biling's hands and feet and escorted them to the river. There, a large ship was docked.

When Yu Xiaowei heard Bi Ling's call for help, he was in a hurry, jumped out of the encirclement, and pounced on the two Miao people. Suddenly, a figure flew out of the boat, bypassing Bi Ling and rushing straight at Xiao Wei. In a hurry, Yu Xiaowei stabbed a sword. I saw that the man dodged the iron sword, stretched out his left hand, and choked Xiao Wei's right wrist with one claw. Yu Xiaowei's hands shook and he lost the iron sword. The man then pushed out a palm with his right hand and hit Xiao Wei's left chest. Yu Xiaowei spat blood from his mouth and rolled several feet away on the ground. The Miao people took advantage of the situation and rushed up and captured Xiaowei.

Bi Ling couldn't help but scream out of Xiao Wei's name. Then, she saw clearly the person who hit Yu Xiaowei. It turned out to be a woman, about thirty years old, with ring-eyed eyes, dark skin, wearing a cyan Miao suit, and an eagle pattern on her chest was particularly eye-catching.

The woman walked up to Bi Ling and saluted, "Yun Ying helmsman Qin Mei, I have seen the second princess. ”

The establishment of the Eagle Cult is more complicated. Under the head of the sect, there is a chief governor, and under the chief manager, there are two wings, left and right wings, and these are the officials who are in the general altar. In various places, the Eagle Sect also has large and small rudders, with altars under the rudder and detachments under the altars, forming a close organization from top to bottom. This Cloud Eagle Rudder is the rudder in charge of the Miao Xinjiang region, and it is also the largest branch of the Eagle Sect.

Only then did Bi Ling remember that she had seen this Qin Mei in the general altar, so she asked, "It's you!" What do you want? ”

Qin Mei replied: "The sect leader has issued a killing order in the whole sect, and it is important to catch the second princess, regardless of life or death." The subordinates searched in Miaojiang in many ways, and finally found a clue in Taoyuan Town, so they laid a net for all the miles. Today, I really waited for the second princess to appear. ”

Bi Ling asked: "The 'sect leader' you are talking about, is that my sister?" ”

Qin Mei replied: "Yes." The subordinates will escort the second princess to the main altar and hand it over to the sect leader. ”

At this time, another woman came out of the boat, a little younger, and was the altar master of the Colorful Wing Altar under the Cloud Eagle Rudder, named Feihong. She walked to Qin Mei's side, pointed to Yu Xiaowei, who was seriously injured, and asked, "Helmsman, what should you do with this man?" ”

Qin Mei glanced at Yu Xiaowei and only said two words: "Feed the fish." ”

A few Miao people immediately bundled Xiao Wei and lifted it up and walked to the river.

Yu Xiaowei had no strength to struggle, but there were still words in his mouth: "Ling'er, I'll go first!" ”

Bi Ling hurriedly shouted, "You can't do this! But no one paid attention to her. Seeing that Yu Xiaowei was about to be thrown into the river, Bi Ling didn't know whether it was out of grief or fear, so she shouted: "No! ”

Qin Mei raised her right hand: "Slow!" The Miao people stopped, and Bi Ling was exhausted. Qin Mei said again: "It seems that this person is very important to the second princess. The subordinate will take him here first, in case the second princess escapes on the way back to the main altar. ”

Bi Ling gritted her teeth and said, "Don't worry, I won't run away again!" ”

Yu Xiaowei was tied to a big tree, still shouting: "Ling'er, you can't go with them!" ”

Qin Mei shouted: "How dare you call the name of the second princess so lightly, slap your mouth!" ”

The Miao people were about to make a move, and Bi Ling shouted: "Stop!" She turned her head to look at Yu Xiaowei and said, "Thank you for the help you have given me during this time, accompanying me through mountains and rivers, and avenging my killing of the enemy." But we can't run away like this for the rest of our lives. Now, let me go and make a break with my sister! ”

Qin Mei nodded, raised her hand and said, "Second princess, please!" ”

Bi Ling walked into the cabin and let Yu Xiaowei keep calling behind her. The danger of going to the main altar, Bi Ling knows better than anyone else, but at this moment, she has no choice.

After the boat sailed, it took two or three days to reach the main altar against the current. Although Biling is still revered as a princess on the ship, her hands and feet are tied. She sat in the cabin all day long, looking at the scenery outside the cabin, and didn't think about tea and dinner.

Qin Mei walked in, and seeing that the food on the table was still brand new, she picked up a bowl of soup and slowly handed it to Bi Ling. Bi Ling glanced at the soup, and then continued to look out of the cabin.

Qin Mei shook her head and said, "Alas! There are a lot of rumors in the church about the matter between your sisters, and there are different opinions, which can be described as confusing. I can only promise to send you to the main altar, and as for what the sect leader will do with you after you arrive at the main altar, it is not up to me to decide what a martial artist can decide. Maybe she will miss the sisters and let you live. ”

Bi Ling smiled faintly and said, "In my sister's eyes, I am the biggest obstacle for her to sit firmly in the position of sect leader. If I don't die, she won't be at peace. In the past, I would run away because my mother, Aunt Feng, and the sisters of the Eagle Sect had not avenged their great revenge; And now, the white-haired ice demon is dead, my wish has been granted, and I have died without regrets. ”

Qin Mei said, "But according to what the sect leader said, it was you who introduced the white-haired ice demon into the main altar that caused the catastrophe of our sect. ”

Bi Ling turned her head to look at Qin Mei and said, "Yes, I led her to the main altar, but I have no collusion with her." ”

Qin Mei asked, "Then why did you stay with her all the way?" ”

Biling replied: "Just like I'm with you now, do I have a choice?" What's more, the Ice Demon has already taught me well, even if she doesn't have me to lead the way, she will go to the main altar by herself. She was holding me and just wanted to demonstrate to my mother. ”

Qin Mei said: "It's a pity that most people in the sect don't believe you now. ”

Bi Ling looked out of the cabin again and said, "What is the difference between you believing and not believing?" Now my sister wants to kill me, and if you give me to my sister, you will be promoted and rich. ”

Qin Mei didn't say anything more, left the bowl of soup on the table beside Bi Ling, and turned to leave the cabin. She walked up to the bow of the boat, leaned on the mast, watched the green hills on both sides of the strait, and listened to the sound of the waves under the boat. The ship moved forward in the darkness of the night, and she said nothing.

At this time, Feihong also came to the bow of the boat and asked, "Is the helmsman wondering if he should hand over the second princess to the sect master?" ”

Qin Mei asked rhetorically: "What do you think?" ”

Feihong replied: "If it is really as the sect leader said, the second princess is in contact with foreign enemies and kills the first sect leader, then it is our duty to hand her over to the sect leader; But in case, the second princess is not a traitor......"

Qin Mei asked again, "Are you doubting what the sect leader said?" ”

Feihong replied: "With all due respect to her subordinates, the second princess has avenged the first sect leader with her own strength, thousands of miles away, and has avenged the first sect leader, and has eliminated great troubles for my sect, and what she has done is not like a traitor; On the other hand, the sect leader, since he succeeded to the throne, has not said a word about revenge against the white-haired ice demon, and only bent on chasing the second princess, which is really unconvincing. ”

Qin Mei said: "Whether the second princess is apostasy or not is not up to us. Now that the eldest princess has succeeded to the position of sect leader, she wants to hunt down the second princess, and we can only follow her orders. ”

Feihong lowered her voice, making sure that only she and Qin Mei could hear it: "There are quite a few rumors in the Sect that the eldest princess is the leader of the sect, but it is actually ......."

Qin Mei raised her head and took a deep breath and asked, "What do you want to say?" ”

Feihong thought about it for a while, but decided to continue: "When the first sect leader was funeral, in addition to the two princesses, there were only Fuju's right envoys, as well as Yingxue and Ningshuang, two front guards. However, shortly thereafter, the snow and frost disappeared for no apparent reason. Who can tell the merits? ”

Qin Mei straightened her face and said, "Feihong Altar Master, don't forget, we have all sworn allegiance to the Sect Master. Even if something strange happens, we shouldn't suspect the Master. ”

Feihong asked: "What does the helmsman mean, do you still want to hand over the second princess?" ”

Qin Mei did not answer and left the bow of the boat. The boat was still sailing in the direction of the main altar, and the sound of the waves still echoed in Qin Mei's ears. The images of Chi Jin and Bi Ling flashed before her eyes. She knew that one of them was a traitor to the Cult of the Eagles, and the other was a savior who could revive the Cult. But who is the traitor and who is the savior? The figure of Yaoluan appeared in her mind again, and she longed for Yaoluan to give her an answer. She probably never thought that after catching Bi Ling, her mood would be so contradictory and helpless, without the slightest excitement.

I don't know how long it took, Feihong came to report: "Ahead is Fairy Town." ”

This sentence interrupted Qin Mei's contemplation, and she said softly, "It's here so soon." She walked out of the cabin, it was still dark, and the boat was docking. Next, they should change boats and enter the altar through the Fairy River. However, Qin Mei said to Feihong and all his subordinates, "You are waiting here. ”

Feihong asked, "Helmsman, do you want to take the second princess to see the sect leader alone?" ”

Qin Mei said: "No, the second princess also stays here." ”

"Huh?" Feihong was even more confused.

Qin Mei explained: "I'll go to report to the sect leader first, and then come back to escort the second princess to the main altar." ”

Although this is a bit tedious, it is understandable that Feihong took the order.

Qin Mei tidied up her clothes and hat, and when she was about to get off the ship, she looked back at the subordinates on the ship, looked up at the stars in the sky, took out a small bag from her bosom, handed it to Feihong, and said, "If I haven't come back by dawn, you can open it." ”

"This ......" Feihong was confused again, but she only needed to believe that Qin Mei had her own arrangements.

Qin Mei crossed the fairy river alone and came to the front of the Eagle King Palace, and saw that there were still lights in the hall, and the voices of Chi Jin and Fu Ju came out, but she couldn't hear what was said. After the guards in front of the palace entered the palace to report, Qin Mei was allowed to enter the palace.

The Eagle King's hall was still so dim and empty, with a few oil lamps, a few pillars, and a few curtains. Sitting on the throne of the sect leader in the center of the hall was Chi Jin, who had removed the black veil that Yao Luan had set up in front of the throne at the beginning, so that all the disciples could see her beauty. Compared to half a year ago, her appearance is very different. Wearing an eagle's crown, wearing an ochre red robe, his face is painted with blue and black eyebrows and dark red lips, his hands are wearing white jade bracelets and eagle claw fingers, his eyes are half-closed, and he sits upright on the middle stage, like a sect leader. As for Fu Ju, he stood on the left side of the throne, which used to be where Ming Feng stood, that is, the position of the head of the Eagle Sect.

After Qin Mei finished the etiquette, Chi Jin opened her mouth and asked: "Qin Mei helmsman, why did you come here late at night?" Her voice was deeper than before.

Qin Mei replied: "Muslim master, his subordinates do have important things to repay. The day before yesterday, Yun Yingru saw a suspicious person in the Lancang River, so he took her down. At a glance, her subordinates saw that she was the second princess who had been hunted down by the sect leader many times. ”

"Biling?" Chi Jin's eyes immediately widened, and he looked at Fu Ju beside him, revealing a look of surprise.

Qin Mei still replied calmly: "Yes, it is the second princess Biling." ”

Chi Jin hurriedly asked, "Where is she now?" ”

Qin Mei replied: "I am being imprisoned in the rudder of Yunying." ”

Chi Jin asked, "Why don't you bring it to the main altar?" ”

Qin Mei replied: "The road is far away, and my subordinates are afraid that there will be mistakes, so they ask for instructions first." ”

Chi Jin immediately said, "Bring her quickly." Whether she lives or dies, the Sect Master wants to see her! ”

"Yes." After Qin Mei received the order, she said, "My subordinates dare to ask the sect leader, how do you want to deal with the second princess?" ”

This time, before Chi Jin could speak, Fu Ju replied first: "The sect leader's killing order is clearly written, Bi Ling is in contact with foreign enemies, and if she commits chaos, she should be punished for the crime." ”

Qin Mei said: "My subordinates thought that if the second princess was really a foreign enemy and made trouble, she should use the power of the white-haired ice demon to usurp the position of the sect leader, however, instead of doing this, she eradicated the white-haired ice demon, which is probably something else." ”

Fu Ju said: "It is precisely because the first sect leader was wise and wrote down his will in advance, and passed it on to the sect leader, and the sect leader led us to repel the white-haired ice demon in the Eagle King Palace, that Bi Ling's conspiracy went bankrupt. When Biling saw that the matter was revealed, she absconded in fear of sin. As for the relationship between her and the white-haired ice demon, they were originally using each other, perhaps because of some infighting along the way, causing them to kill each other. ”

Qin Mei said: "Even if the second princess had the intention of usurping, after all, she killed the white-haired ice demon, which is also a great achievement for my sect. I hope that the sect leader will offset her merits and demerits, and let her go! ”

Fu Ju's face sank, and she asked, "Lord Qinmei, are you interceding for Bi Ling?" ”

Chi Jin's brows were also furrowed, and he said, "This sect leader once said that whoever dares to intercede for Bi Ling again will be punished for the same crime." ”

Qin Mei shouted: "Sect Master, you really don't think about the slightest bit of sisterhood? ”

Chi Jin shook his sleeves and said, "What is the relationship between this sect leader and this rebellious person? ”

Qin Mei covered her chest and shouted loudly: "If the first sect leader has a spirit in the sky, he will not want to see your sisters kill each other!" ”

Chi Jin slapped the throne and shouted, "Hmph! You just have to bring her, why do you have to ask so much? ”

Seeing that Chi Jin was so persistent, Qin Mei simply turned her heart sideways and said, "The sect leader forgives the sin, and his subordinates really can't put the second princess to death!" ”

"Presumptuous!" Chi Jin finally jumped up, his eyes lit up with a fierce light, pointed at Qin Mei, and said, "You...... How dare you ......"

At this time, Fu Ju stood up, ran to Chi Jin, saluted and said, "Sect Master is angry!" In fact, the helmsman of Qinmei is also loyal, and what she said is not unreasonable. ”

"Why can't you ......?" Chi Jin looked at Fu Ju in surprise, but when she saw Fu Ju make a slight reassuring gesture, her heart immediately regained her calm. The two of them already had this tacit understanding.

Fu Ju deliberately said loudly: "I also hope that the sect leader will first order the pardon of the second princess's capital crime, and then the helmsman of Qinmei will bring the second princess to the main altar." ”

Chi Jin knew that this was Fu Ju's delaying tactic, so he agreed to it, anyway, as long as Bi Ling arrived at the main altar, wouldn't it be Chi Jin's words whether she was alive or dead?

But Qinmei was not stupid, and said: "Ask the master to write down the **** order and send it to the whole sect." "Her trick can be regarded as clever, which makes it difficult for Chi Jin to regret it in the future.

Chi Jin saw that this delaying tactic did not work, and he couldn't help but be a little annoyed.

But Fu Ju still put on an upright posture and said, "Since the sect leader has promised to pardon, what's the harm in writing a **** order?" ”

Chi Jin hesitated, she didn't know how Fu Ju planned it, but she still trusted Fu Ju after all, so she gritted her teeth and wrote the **** order.

Fu Ju took the **** order, handed it to Qin Mei, and said with a smile: "Okay, Qin Mei helmsman, go and bring the second princess." ”

Qin Mei held the **** order, relieved, thanked Chi Jin, and withdrew from the Eagle King Palace.

When Qin Mei walked away, Chi Jin asked Fu Ju, "What did you mean just now?" ”

Fu Ju said unhurriedly: "Sect Master, you also saw it just now, if you don't stabilize her first, how can she bring Bi Ling here?" ”

Chi Jin said: "I know this. But you shouldn't ask me to write down any **** orders! If Qinmei announces the **** order, how will we kill Biling in the future? ”

Fu Ju smiled lightly and said, "Sect Master, don't worry! That **** order, she can't take it out of the main altar. ”

Chi Jin asked in surprise, "What do you mean......?" ”

Fu Ju said: "Qin Mei has her heart to Bi Ling, and it will be a big trouble to stay, so today, she must not be allowed to walk out of the main altar." ”

Chi Jin said, "Oops! If you hadn't stopped her just now, I would have killed her here, so why bother with it? ”

Fu Ju said, "Sect Master, don't worry! Since Qin Mei is the first helmsman of this sect, her skills are not below you and me. If you push her into a hurry, the consequences are difficult to predict. It's better to leave it to the wild man. ”

"Savages?" The worries in Chi Jin's heart suddenly disappeared, and they were replaced by a burst of secret joy.

Fu Ju nodded and said, "Yes." After killing Qin Mei, the sect leader will order Yun Yingru to hand over Bi Ling in her name, and everything will be done. With that, she covered her mouth and burst out laughing.

Chi Jin was also very satisfied, and a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.

Besides, after Qin Mei left the Eagle King Palace, she wanted to go directly to the Fairy River to take a bamboo raft, but she was just in time for the guard to change shifts, and the bamboo raft was not allowed to travel. In desperation, she had to wait for another half an hour, until after the guards had changed shifts, and then the new guards on duty would take her on the bamboo raft.

A bamboo raft is rowed through the cave. Qin Mei has walked through this cave many times, and each time it is so dark that she can't see her fingers. But today it seemed darker, and the sound of the water was more rapid than usual, sending chills down the spine and adding to the eerie feeling.

After walking for a long time, before she saw the exit, Qin Mei felt that something was wrong, so she asked, "Why haven't you come out of the cave yet?" But no one answered. Qin Mei asked again, but no one answered. Her instincts told her that danger was looming. Although she couldn't see anything, she could feel that the raft was moving faster and faster in a certain direction, and it was not the usual exit direction.

Finally, a bright light appeared ahead. Qin Mei jumped out of the bamboo raft and landed in the light. It was a hand-hewn stone platform, ten zhang long and wide, with four lights on each side, so there was light. Directly in front of the stone platform is a stone door with a hole, three feet high. A huge sculpture of a stone eagle spreads its wings on the lintel. There was a deep corridor behind the door, and I didn't know where it led.

This is clearly the architecture of the Eagle Sect, but Qin Mei has never been there. She took off a light and walked in the hallway. After a few hundred steps, she stopped, because a coffin appeared in front of her. The coffin is made of nanmu, covered with a crown of eagles, and tied with black scarves on all sides. Such a decoration can be enjoyed by ordinary people. There is a spirit card erected in front of the coffin, Qin Mei shines the light on a closer look, and the spirit card reads: "Yao Luan, the eighth holy sect leader". This is Yaoluan's coffin, how could it be here? Qin Mei looked ahead again, and behind this coffin, she could faintly see several coffins with similar shapes. Qin Mei suddenly reacted: "Could it be that this is the resting place of my sect masters for the ages?" ”

Qin Mei didn't understand how she broke into here, but according to the Eagle Sect's decree, the place where the sect leader rests is a forbidden place, and she must not trespass. This made Qin Mei so nervous that the light in her hand fell to the ground without holding it steady, but fortunately it was not extinguished. Qin Mei hurriedly bent down and picked up the lights. But just by bending down, I saw a skull leaning against the foot of the coffin by the light of the lamp. Although Qin Mei has experienced a hundred battles, she was really startled when such a thing suddenly appeared here and now. Qin Mei took a closer look, it was a female corpse, decomposed, difficult to distinguish, and wearing the costume of the red-clothed guard of the Eagle Sect. Not far away, there was another corpse, also dressed in the same costume. Both bodies had broken cervical vertebrae and should have been strangled to death. Both bodies had a waist tag around their waists that read "Seat Guard".

Qin Mei suddenly remembered: "They are the two guards who mysteriously disappeared after the funeral of the Sect Master-Yingxue and Ningshuang?" Why did these two people die here? Does the Sect Master know about this? ”

Before Qin Mei could figure it out, a gust of wind suddenly hit behind her. Fortunately, she was agile and quickly rolled over on her side, only to see a big foot stomp on the spot she had just placed. When I looked closely, there was an eight-foot-long monster standing there, like a human being, but with a huge physique, rough limbs, and a hairy face, and could not speak, but could only "whoop" and scream, like thunder. Isn't this the legendary wildling?

The savage continued to chase after Qin Mei. Don't look at the size of this wild man, his movements are not sluggish, and his steps are several times that of ordinary people. Qin Mei dodged a few times, but she still couldn't shake the wild man away, so she simply jumped up and kicked the wild man's lower abdomen. But the wild man's skin was rough and thick, and his feet were only like itching. Where did Qin Mei meet such an opponent? There was nothing to be done for a while, but he was forced into a corner. The wildling threw a punch and slammed it into the wall, kicking up a cloud of dust. Qin Mei took the opportunity to hold the wild man's arm, used it as an axis, turned over, and gently tiptoed her left foot on the top of the wild man's head, and jumped behind the wild man.

As soon as she landed, Qin Mei ran out of the door without looking back. It was only a few hundred steps away, and she was soon at the door. Just as one of her feet had already stepped out of the door, a pair of crossbows suddenly shot from both sides of the door, which she did not expect. With a knee-jerk reaction, she dodged one of them, but the other arrow pierced her right leg. Not to mention the bleeding and pain, but worse, she could no longer escape.

The wild man chased after him in a few big strides, raised his big foot, and stomped on Qin Mei's injured leg fiercely. Although the sound of bones shattering could be heard, Qin Mei bit her hair tightly and did not scream. The savage grabbed Qin Mei's neck and easily picked her up. Qin Mei hung in mid-air, unable to breathe, and even her throat was about to be crushed. She realized that she was about to die, and Yingxue and Ning Shuang should have been strangled to death in this way, right? The savage could also feel that the woman in the palm of her hand was weakening, quietly waiting for death to come.

However, it was the last bit of strength in Qin Mei's body that was concentrated on the index and middle fingers of her right hand. Suddenly, the hand was raised, making a talon pose. The wild man could no longer see the winning talon, for the talon dug deep into his left eye. There was a heart-rending scream from inside the cave, a sound of pain, fear, madness, and rage, deafening, as if it was about to collapse the entire cave.

The savage in severe pain pushed Qin Mei away with one palm, hugged his head, held the blood, and fled back to the depths of the corridor. Qin Mei was pushed all the way to the river, and after squirting out a large mouthful of blood, she finally stopped moving. Her eyes were staring straight up, her right palm still clutching the eyeball.
