30. Light warm

An Yi clenched the hilt of the sword in his hand and stared at Yan Xu, his lone wolf-like eyes were burning with steaming killing intent, as if he was going to pounce on it at any time and fight hard.

Yan Xu looked at him for a moment, and then smiled gently, "I just received the news before I came, all the Bliss Pills stored in the secret cellar of the Ming Flame Division in the palace were stolen, I was puzzled before, which one was so bold and so good at it, that he could steal things in the palace cellar with heavy organs, but now I understand." Zishuo, good means, a hundred Bliss Pills are your chips? What do you want? I think...... It won't be your purpose to change only one final antidote, after all, a hundred Pills of Bliss is enough for you to eat until the end of your life...... If you can save your life. ”

There are many disciples in the Ming Yan Division, and there are only one hundred and eight people who are qualified to take the Bliss Pill. However, due to the complicated refining process and the rarity of the materials, the pills refined every year are only as good as 300. The antidote to the Pill of Bliss was more difficult to refine, and unless it was for special reasons, the emperor would grant wealth or power to the Flame Envoy, but rarely gave the antidote. So far, there are only three antidotes to the Bliss Pill, which are kept by Tong Mo.

Since the first time he saw Zishuo in the fighting beast ring, Yan Xu knew that he was by no means a mediocre person, he admired talented people, and he also thought about taking it for his own use in the future. Later, I heard some rumors about his unruliness, thinking that he was still young in the end, and it was inevitable that he would be proud of his talents, and he should hone it for a few years, and he would not pay much attention to it. When Xiyue was robbed before, and when Tong Mo came to the news that the Bliss Pill was stolen today, he didn't expect that the two things were related to this person.

There were a total of one hundred and eight Bliss Pills in the secret cellar, and he only stole a hundred of them, leaving eight of them, and the reason why he did this was perhaps to leave a line in everything and not to do it, or maybe he had ulterior motives, so that the Flame Envoys fought to the death for the only eight remaining Bliss Pills, and they were torn apart. Whatever his reason, Yan Xu thinks he's an amazing talent. However, although he admires him, he cannot tolerate him provoking himself.

He raised his sword eyebrows slightly, and said lightly: "Let me guess, you planned before you robbed Xiyue, in case of failure, you will exchange these hundred Bliss Pills for her?" ”

An Yi clenched his sockets, and his thin lips were pursed into a line. He slowly glanced at the woman who was standing quietly behind Yan Xu, she was looking at him with wide eyes, although there was worry in her eyes, but it was just worry, which was completely different from the love-hate eyes she had just looked at Yan Xu, there seemed to be a thousand sharp blades in her heart, stabbing him almost unsteadily.

His voice was hoarse when he spoke again, "You guessed right, since you know everything, now give me a word, a hundred Bliss Pills are the lives of a hundred Flame Envoys, just in your thoughts, in exchange?" ”

Yan Xu chuckled, sometimes things are so impermanent, he just carefully planned a game to lure Yili to exchange Fuxi gossip for the cherished moon, but he didn't expect that his game had just begun, and he was actually calculated to exchange a hundred blissful pills for the cherished moon.

He laughed for a moment and looked at Comfort again, "It's really funny, if it weren't for the difference between you and me, I really hope to be friends with you." It's a pity that you don't know me well enough, and I have never been the only one who can make conditions to others, and you are still a little behind. I'm me, the Mingyan Division is the Mingyan Division, your wishful thinking is wrong. You sneaked into the Ming Flame Division, it was Tong Mo who had no eyes and no beads, and he deserved to suffer this catastrophe. The Lou Zi stabbed out by the Ming Yan Division himself was cleaned up by the Ming Yan Division himself, what does it have to do with me? ”

He paused, glanced at Yili, and there was an inexplicable smile in his eyes, "Yili, don't forget my words that night." After saying that, he turned around, took Xiyue's hand and walked to the carriage waiting on the side, while instructing Yun to ask, "Yili can leave, Zishuo, let people watch, and notify the people of Mingyan Division to come and deal with it." ”

Although Tong Mo has been secretly supporting Yan Xu, he has always been Rui Wang's person, Yan Xu's every move, he reports to Rui Wang in every detail, although he knows that he is responsible, it still makes Yan Xu feel bored, he doesn't like someone to spy on his actions in secret, even if that person is his father. This time, Mingyan Division came out of Louzi, if he couldn't recover those Bliss Pills in time, when the Cold Food Festival arrived in two months, Mingyan Division didn't know what would happen, and where would he have time to pay attention to him, he would be happy to see it, and even a little gloating.

The carriage walked slowly, Yan Xu kept holding Xiyue's hand, looked at her for a moment before saying, "You have been wronged." ”

Xiyue's eyes were red, and she plunged into his arms, she had a thousand words to say, but she opened her mouth, but she couldn't say a word, so she could only hug him tightly and finally speak after a while, but what she said was, "Jinyun, are you still cold?" ”

Yan Xu was stunned.

Of course he was happy to find Xiyue, just because she was an indispensable part of obtaining the Ten Directions, and when he got into the carriage, he was a little absent-minded when he thought about Yili and Zishuo, and at this moment, she didn't mention a word of grievance, only asked him if he was cold. This sentence warmed him more directly than her body temperature, and his heart that had been as hard as ice for more than ten days was suddenly injected by a warm current, and quickly spread to his limbs and bones. He hugged her hard, lowered his head and buried himself in her neck, greedily sucking the heat from her, "You're here, it's not cold." ”

The two hugged each other quietly for a moment, and then Yan Xu stroked her shoulder and asked, "Who is Zishuo?" ”

Xiyue thought for a while, and only said: "He said that he was the same door as Yili." She wasn't sure how credible Zi Shuo's words were, but one thing she knew was that Zi Shuo had infiltrated the Ming Yan Division to save her, and she didn't want him to accept his affection, but she didn't want him to die either, so she didn't plan to tell what she knew, "Will he die?" He stole the Bliss Pill, what would the Bright Flame Division do with him? ”

"If he dies, Ming Yan Si will not be able to retrieve the Bliss Pill again, so ...... Before Ming Yan Si retrieved the Bliss Pill, he was free to die, and he knew this very well. But after Ming Yansi retrieved the Bliss Pill, it was difficult to say, Yan Xu hooked the corners of his mouth, and raised Xiyue's chin to look at him, "Is there anything you want to ask me?" ”

He sensed the reservation in her words, and the fact that she didn't even dare to look at Yili when they left just now, and with what he knew about her, he could be sure that she had learned something from Yili's mouth.

Xiyue's body stiffened, and then lowered her eyes, "Yes, or those few words, what is my identity?" How did I get to you? Why do I lose my memory? ”

She had asked these questions a long time ago, but he had never liked her to ask them before, and he only showed a slight displeasure, so she did not dare to ask more, but now she was extremely eager to know.

Yan Xu took a deep breath and slowly rubbed her fingers against her face, "Xiyue, give me some time, in a few months, I will give you an explanation." "After you get the ten strategies, you will tell her a qiē, whether it is resentment or hatred, whether you go or stay, it's all up to her.

"Okay." Xiyue nodded and buried herself in his arms again.

The main army of 50,000 arrived at Tiger Hill a few days ago, and the original plan was delayed for several days due to the matter of the moon.

Xiyue concentrated on taking care of his daily life, and didn't care about the rest. But she knew from Yun Zhu's mouth that although Zishuo and Yili suffered a lot that night, they finally escaped before the people of the Ming Yan Division came. Yunzhu said that although he escaped for the time being, his life after that would never be easy, after all, it would be the Cold Food Festival in two months, and the Bliss Pill could not be refined in a short period of time, and if the Ming Flame Division could not retrieve the Bliss Pill in time, it would inevitably collapse the nest.

Ming Yan Si didn't care about how to cherish the moon, she only secretly prayed that Yi and Yili would be safe and sound, as for where she would go in the future, she had decided to wait patiently for Yan Xu to tell her all about it before making a decision, she just wanted to stay by Yan Xu's side now. In addition to taking care of Yan Xu, Xiyue stepped up the cultivation of the Northern Secret Technique, and she had broken through the fourth level before she came back. Yan Xu said that when the Northern Darkness Technique is practiced to the fifth level, her body temperature will begin to drop, she originally didn't plan to continue practicing, but that time she was robbed, she deeply felt the sadness of not being able to protect herself, and then An Yi took her away, if she had enough ability at that time, she didn't need to be at the mercy of others.

She was deeply disgusted with her own incompetence, and after struggling inwardly, she decided to take the risk and continue to cultivate the fifth level of the Northern Immortal Technique. After practicing for a few days, she found that her body temperature had not changed in any way, and remembered that An Yi had said that she had the pure yang qi of Master Duyi in her body, perhaps because of this, even if she cultivated the Northern Secret Technique, it would not affect her body temperature, and Yan Xu would not find out that she was secretly practicing the Northern Spiritual Technique, this discovery made her ecstatic and more diligent in her cultivation.

News came from the Mochizuki Gorge, the deputy general Yan Luo sent people to break into the gorge every three or five times, and fought more than ten battles of all sizes, and he had an excellent grasp of proportion, and he withdrew every time he had a slight victory, and he was never greedy for merit, and successfully attracted the attention of the Wei army.

A few days later, 50,000 Jin troops launched a fierce attack on Qiongzhou of Wei, and the Wei army did not expect a large army to suddenly appear on the side of Qiongzhou, and it was too late to save it, and Qiongzhou only held for a few days before it was lost. In mid-March, Yan Xu entered Qiongzhou with an army of 50,000.

Qiongzhou in March has a spring breeze, the cold winter has passed, it is the season of spring back to the earth for all things to grow, but Qiongzhou, which has just experienced the baptism of war, is full of displaced refugees, and there are still the corpses of Wei soldiers who have not had time to clean up on the street, and the ruins and ruins can be seen everywhere, a barren and dead silence.

Yan Xu took the moon and stood on the towering city tower to watch. He had strictly ordered the garrison not to disturb the people, but there were still many people in Qiongzhou who left with their families and small lands. Yan Xu did not stop them, they fled to other states and counties, which would only make the local people more frightened, but it would be beneficial to the Jin army.

Xiyue stood beside Yan Xu, looked at the refugees lining up on the street to receive porridge, and asked, "Jinyun, how long will this battle last?" ”

Yan Xu glanced at her, saw her frowning, and said with a smile: "Yesterday, General Yan has successfully captured Wangyue Gorge, and when Qiongzhou settles down, it is estimated that it will be taken in less than a month. ”

Seeing that he said it easily, Xiyue knew that he had always had great ambitions, so she didn't say anything anymore, but only whispered: "I hope the people can suffer less." ”

There was a faint sound of dispute in the distance, and the two looked around, a team of Jin soldiers were cleaning up the corpses on the street, and several ragged Qiongzhou people stopped the Jin soldiers while crying, preventing them from dragging away the corpses lying on the ground, "Brother Bing, it's good, just wait for a while, they died unjustly, wait for the master to recite the mantra of the past life and then take them away......"

Next to the corpse, a wizened monk was sitting cross-legged on the ground, his eyes down, and his heart was chanting the sutra without distraction. Xiyue recognized at a glance that this monk was Master Wataichi.
