Chapter 18: You Don't Count

Dingβ€”β€”

The arrows that shot out of the fire did not hit the Iron Ridge Tiger, but it also made it sense that it was terrible, and as soon as it stopped, it grinned again.

Suddenly, Ning Yue's heart was also shocked, and he looked in the direction where the arrow was flying, only to see a figure standing on a tree branch in the distance that was in the air, bent like a full moon on the open bow, and the new sharp arrow had been wound.

"Hey, it's you, can there be anyone else? If you don't want to die, come over quickly. ”

The man glanced at Ning Yue with a cold attitude.

However, Ning Yue naturally didn't care about anything, and hurriedly ran over, feeling a little lucky in his heart, it was a blessing in misfortune to meet a human powerhouse to help him in this kind of place.

Roar!

At the same time, the Iron Ridge Tiger roared again, jumped up, and the sound of the bowstring vibrating sounded together, only to see a cold light nailed down diagonally, and stopped in front of the demonic beast.

It's not that he doesn't want to kill the Iron Spine Tiger directly, it's that the demonic beast has a fast reaction speed, and can always suddenly twist its body to dodge and avoid the fatal blow.

When he came to the tree, Ning Yue looked back with palpitations, only to see that the iron-ridged tiger was in a dilemma, and he was still hesitating whether to continue to chase him. At this moment, a rush of footsteps sounded, and he turned his head to look again, only to see more than a dozen figures hurrying over, all holding blades in their hands.

Seeing this, the iron-ridged tiger finally became afraid, turned his head and jumped, and fled towards the depths of the mountain forest. Unless forced to do so, Warcraft rarely clashes with hordes of human powerhouses.

"Well, if it weren't for the mission, I would really like to have a good fight with you brute. ”

The man on the tree finally put down the big bow, his eyes fell on Ning Yue, and said lightly: "It's okay, if you want to enter the city, you can come with us, it will be safer." ”

Ning Yue was about to refuse, but he didn't expect another voice to come first, light and good-sounding, it turned out to be a woman.

"Liu Wei, what happened?"

I saw that it was a woman about sixteen or seventeen years old, with three feet of green silk hanging down her temples, bright eyes like stars, bright teeth like jade, a little pink face was so snow-white, her clothes were graceful and luxurious, and she was graceful and elegant.

It's beautiful.

At this moment, Ning Yue was a little stupid, he had never seen such a beautiful woman before. Liu Weier, the junior sister who has the most contact, is as delicate as a hibiscus out of the water, but she is not as noble and gorgeous as the woman in front of her. The second is the previous Xiaoyin, who is delicate and cute, but a little less quiet and elegant.

"Hey, dare to look around, be careful that I poke you in the eye!"

The man called Liu Wei drew another feather arrow from the quiver, and was about to stab it out.

"Liu Wei, don't be rude. ”

Seeing this, the rich lady hurriedly stopped, bowed slightly towards Ning Yue, and said with a smile: "This son, I'm sorry, I can't discipline you, so you're so cute!"

Suddenly, her eyes were attracted by the little wolf in Ning Yue's arms, her eyes narrowed into a beautiful crescent shape, leaned over, looked at the fluffy little guy up close, and wanted to reach out and touch it, but unexpectedly, the little wolf actually grinned, very resistant.

Hurriedly pressed the little wolf's head, Ning Yue was a little embarrassed: "This child is afraid of life, so ......"

"Yes, it's all like that. ”

The eldest lady nodded and smiled, and then asked, "This should have been picked up or caught in the woods, why don't you sell it to me, the price is easy to say." ”

"This ......" Ning Yue was stunned for a moment and shook his head: "I'm sorry, I don't sell it." ”

"Hey, what do you mean, my young lady wants to buy your ......"

Suddenly, the eldest lady frowned and shouted, "Liu Wei, do you dare to say more and try it?"

That look, not angry but mighty.

"Why don't you sell it? I'm sure I can offer a price you're happy with. Immediately afterward, her tone quickly returned to gentleness, and it was the same as the two of them just now.

"The child is pitiful, having lost his parents, so ...... It seems to be more resistant to you, so ...... "Ning Yue doesn't know why, maybe it's sympathy, maybe it's really the little wolf who is not satisfied with the beautiful lady in front of him."

"Hehe, maybe it will like me if you touch it a little more. Well, you're going to go into town too, so take my car. Along the way, let me tease this little guy and relieve my boredom, how about it?" The eldest lady smiled slightly, and that demeanor made it impossible to refuse.

Of course, Liu Wei on the side wanted to stop it, but he was directly forced back by a look.

Half a quarter of an hour later, Ning Yue was a little flattered and sat in the gorgeously decorated carriage, except for him and the eldest lady, there was only one maid who served, and the delicate snacks and tea on the table could be used at will, such a treatment was unimaginable before.

However, what made him more concerned was that the many weapons placed on the shelves in the carriage were not unsheathed, but from the appearance of the lines, they were absolutely extraordinary.

In fact, he was guessing in his heart just now, and the beautiful and elegant rich lady in front of him was also a strong martial cultivator.

Otherwise, Ning Yue didn't believe that the eldest lady with such a powerful guard would be able to let a stranger into the carriage without knowing anything about the world.

didn't pay attention to Ning Yue's gaze, the eldest lady kept teasing the little wolf curled up on the side, but found that it looked completely ignorant, and sometimes touched it too much, and even bared its teeth and grinned.

"Well, I still don't look attractive enough. ”

With a helpless sigh, the eldest lady was a little lost, and her attention finally returned to Ning Yue.

"By the way, my name is Yuan Jingsi, what's your name?"

"Ning Yue. ”

The moment the words came out, Ning Yue regretted it, and actually said his real name, if the other party had read the wanted notice, he would be the turtle in the urn now. The guards outside, he couldn't deal with it.

Who knows, Yuan Jingsi didn't seem to know, nodded and said, "Not a bad name." ”

I don't know if I was confused by her innocence or beauty, Ning Yue asked in a strange way: "That, Miss Yuan is not afraid that I am a bad person?"

"Bad guy, what kind of bad guy can you be, could it be that you are still a member of the Red Wolf?" Yuan Jingsi laughed teasingly, but it made Ning Yue's heart startled again.

Red wolf?

For this name, he has also heard before, the Snow Dragon Empire itself is not calm, five years ago when the war initially subsided, the new emperor ascended the throne, but there are still many voices dissatisfied with him. Soon after, a brand-new killer organization emerged, collecting money to kill people, never missing, and even daring to attack the lords and nobles of the empire.

The wanted warrants of many members of the Red Wolf have been pending for more than four years, and they are notorious, but they have never been captured or killed, and their names have made the people of the powerful Snow Dragon Empire panic and talk about tigers.

Ning Yue was a little surprised, why Yuan Jingsi mentioned the red wolf.

This surprise, when he arrived at his destination in the afternoon, he was relieved in his heart, Yuan Jingsi's home turned out to be the City Lord's Mansion?

And this city is not ordinary, it is by no means comparable to a barren mountain city. Taixing City, located in the territory of the Snow Dragon Empire, is one of the trade hubs connecting the border to the vassal states.

At this moment, Ning Yue finally understood why Yuan Jingsi was able to have such a guard to follow him, a real big and small family, worthy of the name.

And according to rumors, Red Wolf, a killer organization, likes to find powerful people. The City Lord's Mansion in Taixing City is indeed a good target for them.

"How is it, my family is good, right?" Yuan Jingsi grinned, beckoned a maid, and gave an order.

"Next, Ning Yue, you can live here, just say what you need. ”

"That's not good, is it?"

Ning Yue was even more shocked, could it be that the eldest lady in front of her was so ignorant of the world that she had no precautions against him at all?

However, there was another point that made him a little puzzled, when he entered the City Lord's Mansion, some guards or servants also looked at him a few times, but he didn't seem to be curious, as if he had long been accustomed to it.

"Nothing unusual, I have a lot of rooms at home. Besides, I'd like to spend a little more time with this little guy, maybe he'll accept me. ”

Giggling, Yuan Jingsi once again reached out to touch the little wolf in Ning Yue's arms, but the latter did not appreciate it at all, he was very resistant, and he grinned and roared, as if he was demonstrating and warning the enemy.

"Thank you very much. ”

Ning Yue gave up, if he stayed in the City Lord's Mansion, he would indeed be safer. Taixing City is already far away from the Cloud Void Sword Pavilion, but if there are usually disciples on a mission, they will occasionally come here.

As for the possible dangers inside, there should be no for the time being, when he entered the city, he looked through the car window at the bulletin board at the city gate, did not see his portrait, and learned from Yuan Jingsi in gossip that the wanted warrant with a reward of less than 50,000 yuan would not be issued in Taixing City at all.

As long as the City Lord's Mansion doesn't specifically investigate his origins, it should be fine.

As he said goodbye to Yuan Jingsi and followed the maid to the guest room, Ning Yue felt as if his heart was suddenly empty, especially when Yuan Jingsi said that the reason for staying with him was because of the little wolf, there was still a sense of loss. Thinking of this, his cheeks were slightly hot, and he unconsciously recalled the smile of the eldest lady.

Really, it's beautiful.

The maid who led the way didn't notice the change in Ning Yue's expression, and said casually: "Miss will take in some people every time she comes back, so you are lucky." I just don't know, how long this time will be. ”

"He who has received the favor will dare to stay longer. Ning Yue came back to his senses and hurriedly replied.

The maid replied softly, almost inaudible: "This, maybe it's not what you say......"

In the next few days, it can be regarded as the most leisurely days in Ning Yue's memory, although there is no special maid to serve, but there is no worry about food and clothing, and the treatment is several times better than in the sect, and I can't help but sigh that the rich family knows how to enjoy it.

However, enjoyment is enjoyment, cultivation has not fallen, getting up early in the morning to practice swords is his habit for many years, cold and heat are unhindered. Since he started to hold a sword at the age of eight, he swung the sword a hundred times a day, then three hundred, and finally five hundred, and the habit of not being able to move by thunder, this number also controlled Ning Yue not to think about it.

Now, he is also swinging his sword for this, but for some reason, it is already the seventh hundred, and there is still a shadow in his mind, these days, he always thinks of her, although he can actually see her all the time.

Noble and elegant, beautiful and generous, Ning Yue had never seen such a moving woman before, and even he was a little longing, if Yuan Jingsi came to him every day, not for the little wolf but for him, how good would it be.

The throbbing and ignorance in his heart was unprecedented, and when he thought of that, his heart beat fast, and his cheeks were also hot, he gritted his teeth and swung his sword to chop, and a small tree not far away instantly cut off a branch.

"Whew, no, you can't be delusional like this, how can I ......"

Shaking his head vigorously again, Ning Yue reached into his robe and grabbed a scroll.

I'm afraid that's the only thing left to keep him fully focused right now.

Spiritual martial arts, sword and wind.
