Chapter 127, Escort

You Fang turned around, and in the mountains at dusk, he finally saw the legendary Moon Shadow Fairy in the rivers and lakes.

Beautiful? Naturally, it is an exaggeration, how can there be a fairy in this world! But there is another word called "a bright eye", which is very expressive and accurate, and when You Fang saw her, her eyes really lit up.

The sky has been dark, the mountains in the west only leave a ray of afterglow, the mountains and forests are full of shadows, but she stands in front of her, the mountains and fields seem to add a touch of beauty, as if to make people forget the surrounding darkness, the ancients used "bright" to describe "charming", the word bright is really appropriate.

Her skin is like warm jade, her complexion is very good, her facial features are also very beautiful, and the most important thing is that she gives people the feeling of standing there - that is, bright. Of course, she is not very old, but at least she should be in her twenties, right? She looks like a seventeen or eighteen-year-old girl, and her eyes are very clear.

Xiang Yinghua is not too tall or short, about 1.6 meters, and is wearing a half-length windbreaker that is almost beige. You Fang's eyesight is very poisonous, and it can be seen through her clothes that her body curves are not very exaggerated, but they are very well-proportioned and feminine. However, what caught his eye the most was the bracelet on her right wrist.

Thirteen pale blue silicon jade wheel crystals, each of which is only the size of a Bodhi bead, is an intact Feng Shui secret mineral crystal. Of course, this kind of thing can not be perforated, if it destroys the internal structure of the crystal, it is equivalent to destroying its object and aura, with a delicate silver chain inlay connection, worn on the delicate wrist, can set off her brightness and beauty.

The volume of mineral crystals can be large or small, too large and too small, and it is rare for the crystal shape to remain intact. Such a small silicon jade wheel crystal essence, there are very few complete crystals, and there are even fewer unique objects that can become secret artifacts, and it is unimaginable to be able to gather exactly the same thirteen, and Xiang Yinghua wears it on his wrist casually, like an ordinary bracelet.

How much is this bracelet worth? If you measure it by money, the price of a villa with a single courtyard on the edge of Hangzhou's West Lake may not be enough.

You Fang doesn't understand the market, and he doesn't know how much this thing is worth, and he doesn't know how much money he "smashed" just now, because his pocket of spars came too easily. But he was knowledgeable, and he could see that the spars inlaid on Xiang Yinghua's bracelet had been refined to the purest level, just like the nine spars he had refined with the help of ancient rituals.

The shape of the silicon jade wheel crystal is soft and cylindrical, like a chess piece, from the center to the edge, the depth of color changes, like a circle of annual rings, and like the ripples of water waves. In addition, there are golden radial patterns that shoot from the center to the surroundings. Its caste can not only extend the divine consciousness, but also condense the earth's qi.

And Xiang Yinghua's bracelet is a miniature and extremely subtle feng shui array, You Fang doesn't know the name of this array, but sighs that its use is too wonderful, it is simply a test of imagination. Xiang Yinghua wears it in his hand, and when he uses himself as a spirit to guide and transfer the spiritual center, it is equivalent to having this magic circle to help.

No matter what kind of artifact she had in her hand, it could greatly extend the scope of her divine sense's control, and the power of the Earth Qi Spiritual Hub that was running greatly increased. And at this moment, she didn't hold anything in her hand, she only needed to stretch out her hand with the bracelet, whether it was offensive or defensive, You Fang couldn't move.

"Don't hide it from Miss Xiang, I am mixed in the archaeological team, experiencing the mountains and rivers of the world and the relics of my ancestors, so as to exercise my sense. In Feiju Village, Chuyang Township, there is a treasure land of feng shui, the edge of the valley has found ancient tombs that stretch for thousands of years, the villagers are rampant in tomb robbery, the political axe sent an archaeological team to investigate the situation and rescue and protect, and a national treasure-level cultural relics were unearthed before.

The cultural value of this thing is very important, filling the gap in the research of the Southern Chu culture in the vicinity, afraid of the ignorant villagers to rob, the archaeological captain personally sent it to Guidong City, and organized cultural relics experts to identify together. Unexpectedly, this man had a sinister heart and set up an ambush here.

I saw him in Feiju Village, and secretly scared him away once, but I didn't expect him to still be fierce and immortal, and blocked us and our people and things here. I was lucky enough to see through his line and ask him what he meant, in the barren mountains and forests, he relied on the secret method to cultivate superbly, trying to kill people and seize treasures. I was forced to do it, not only for the sake of the national treasure, but also for the safety of the other two people who were transporting the things. ”

You Fang just glanced at her, then clasped his fists and saluted, briefly stating what had happened. Xiang Yinghua was surprised when he heard this, this young man could tell Sun Fengbo's identity and also call his own name, of course, he was a fellow Taoist. He called Xiang Yinghua by her name at first, and called her Miss Xiang when he hugged his fists, Xiang Yinghua had never heard a fellow Jianghu who was quite old call her so.

You Fang's eyes lit up when he saw her, which was normal, but it was just appreciation, and there was no special excitement. Immediately noticed the bracelet on her right wrist, her expression was very focused and admiring, it seemed that she was an expert in the identification of feng shui formations and the names of the spirits of the utensils. This surprised her even more, because You Fang's expression was just admiration, and there was not much surprise and shock.

I'm afraid there is no second person in the rivers and lakes who can walk freely wearing a string of such bracelets, not just because of money. Xiang Yinghua himself didn't think this thing was anything, but You Fang's reaction still surprised her, because he just glanced at it, and then withdrew his gaze and saluted with his fists.

"There was a car parked on the side of the road, the tree in front of it had fallen, there was a man and a box hiding in the grass on the other side of the hill, and when I came, there was a woman with an iron rod looking for them in the woods, who were they?" Xiang Yinghua asked quietly.

"The box contains unearthed cultural relics, and the Provincial Cultural Relics Bureau asked to send them to Guidong City, the man is the archaeological team leader, the woman is the archaeological team member, and they are a husband and wife. …… You say they're separated? The head of the pond was hiding in the grass, and I had to go over and see what was going on. You Fang saw that the other party did not return the courtesy, so he put down his hand and replied calmly.

Next, Xiang Yinghua's reaction was unexpected by You Fang, only to see her take out a small mobile phone from her pocket, dial a number and say: "Second uncle, I am Yinghua, Sun Fengbo of the Nine Star Sect was killed in Luofeng Slope, I have already seen the person who shot it, his name is Mei Lande, you mentioned it to me." …… Send someone to deal with it, and I'll find out the reason and bring someone back to give an explanation. ”

After she finished calling, You Fang said with a bitter face: "Miss Xiang, this kind of thing happened here, I should explain it clearly, but the road ahead is unfinished, the danger is unknown, and my task has not been completed, so it is not good to go with you immediately." If something happens again, it is still the master of the secret method of the Jianghu Fengmen, and Songhe Valley is still difficult to get rid of. ”

Xiang Yinghua glanced at him: "Whether what you said is true or not still needs to be verified, and I will deal with it myself, so you don't need to worry." She walked over, stood still a few meters away, stretched out her right hand and turned it half a circle, then glanced at Sun Fengbo's corpse, and then frowned slightly and looked away.

You Fang observed very carefully, this supreme master was a little afraid to look at the dead, not because she was timid, maybe she had never seen this kind of scene. Xiu Weigao doesn't necessarily kill people, and when he sees a bloody corpse in the wild, he definitely doesn't feel very good, no matter how big his ability is, he is a girl from a big family after all.

"What are these? There were cartridge casings over there, and it turned out to be a pistol! How can you use a gun? Xiang Yinghua saw the pistol parts scattered on the ground, and suddenly asked again.

You Fang replied: "When it comes to murder tricks, guns are much better than secret methods. This is ambiguous, and he did not admit that the gun was pulled out by himself, looking at the situation at the scene, it is more like Sun Fengbo shot back, and was finally killed by You Fangge.

"Someone will come to inspect and clean up here, since you have done this matter, you have to take responsibility, and now there happen to be five factions of the rivers and lakes in Songhe Valley to worship the mountain, and they will give this matter a judgment." Melander, you come with me, and ask the other two. Xiang Yinghua turned and walked higher up the hill, seemingly not worrying that You Fang would escape.

"Wait, I'm going to take this thing with me." You Fang turned around and pointed to the bronze staff in the corpse's hand.

Xiang Yinghua didn't say anything, he left by himself, You Fang broke Sun Fengbo's hand and picked up the bronze short staff, followed behind and said: "Miss Xiang, those two are official cultural relics workers, and they came to protect and rescue national cultural relics and monuments, and they have nothing to do with the Jianghu Fengmen. ”

Xiang Yinghua nodded: "Since this is the case, then you should pay attention to what you say, whether it is true or false, you can't hide it from anyone." ”

After saying this, she said no more, and walked around an undulating hillside, and in front of her was a dense forest, when she suddenly heard someone shouting, "Who is it?" ”

"Sister Cheng Yuan, it's me, Xu Kai!" You Fang was short of energy at the moment, so he could only shout as loudly as possible.

You Chengyuan rushed out with a probe shovel in a flash, and saw Xiang Yinghua seemed taken aback, and then strode forward and said, "Why are you injured, who did it?" …… Who is this young lady? ”

You Fang pointed to Yinghua and explained: "The gangster's kung fu just now is quite high, fortunately, this Miss Xiang passed by to help drive him away, she is a friend of mine, a fellow practitioner of martial arts on the rivers and lakes." It's okay now, go back to Director Chi, why did you leave your husband alone? ”

The sister and brother conveyed a lot of information in just a few greetings, first of all, You Fang reminded his sister not to reveal his identity in front of Xiang Yinghua, an "outsider", because he had determined that Xiang Yinghua did not know, so he was still Xu Kai, a member of the archaeological team. Secondly, he hinted that his sister, Miss Xiang, was a master and needed to be treated carefully, but as for how he was injured, he did not explain in detail, which was obviously inconvenient.

In Xiang Yinghua's opinion, Mei Lande is also inconvenient to talk about the inside story of the Jianghu Fengmen in front of the archaeological team members, You Chengyuan is a person who practices martial arts, and she has already seen it. She was also surprised when she suddenly saw You Chengyuan's appearance in the wilderness, but she was very polite and did not reveal too much different colors.

You Chengyuan stretched out his hand to support You Fang, but You Fang politely said no, the three of them walked out of this field together, and did not pass the place where the battle was fought just now. Outside the ravine, Chi Mu Duo was still an honest cat in the grass.

"Husband, it's okay, I met a master to help, it's Xu Kai's friend, that gangster has been driven away, the national treasure is safe, you come out." You Chengyuan called out Chi Mu Duo, and personally picked off the broken grass blades stuck to his head and clothes.

"Director Chi, can I check your documents? It means nothing else, it's to verify identity. This is usually what the police say, but Xiang Yinghua said it bluntly, although it was a question, but the tone was not to ask for the other party's opinion.

When Chi Mu Duo saw the sister and brother come back with a bright and beautiful girl, his jaw was about to drop in surprise, and he didn't know what was going on. You Chengyuan said that this person was a friend of "Xu Kai", but it was obviously not like the situation, and he actually wanted to check his documents. He subconsciously asked, "May I ask this young lady, who are you?" My identity is no secret. ”

You Fang persuaded on the side: "Director Chi, just let her take a look at the documents, we left the car on the side of the road and ran into the field, we really need to explain, Xiang Miss helped, naturally we have to ask clearly." ”

Chi Muduo was very cooperative, took out his work card and ID card and handed them to Xiang Yinghua, but Xiang Yinghua didn't answer, glanced at it and nodded: "Thank you, I know." Then I took out my mobile phone and made a few calls to ask if there had been an archaeological team in Feiju Village, Chuyang Township, and what was the name of the person who led the team?

I don't know through what channel she asked, but soon someone called back, and the matter had been inquired about clearly, and it was indeed correct. After asking, Xiang Yinghua said to the three of them: "In this case, I will personally escort you to Guidong City, and there will be no more accidents." ”

She said that there would be no more accidents, the other three people were surprised, You Fang hurriedly said: "This is really good, Miss Xiang's kung fu is very good, with you escorting the car on the way, no one in the gangsters here dares to act rashly, I really don't know how to thank you!" ”

You Fang understood Xiang Yinghua's intentions in her heart, she was not an escort but a detainee. It is actually very simple to find out the facts, as long as they are sent to Guidong City to see what is going on, it is impossible for "Mei Land" to let the entire national cultural relics department cooperate with him from top to bottom.

But Xiang Yinghua was not too troublesome and was willing to do this, which made You Fang feel very surprised. When it comes to seeing people's eyesight in the rivers and lakes, You Fang is of course a big expert, and it is not complicated to deal with people like Xiang Yinghua, because she is not used to making too many detours in doing things. On the one hand, her cultivation is very high, on the other hand, her status in the Xiang family is also very high, there is no need to beat around the bush if you have any ideas, and over time this kind of surname has been formed, she is the pride of the sky in Songhe Valley.

This is not the same as the pampered eldest lady's kind of Ren surname or brutal temper, Xiang Yinghua is not squeamish at all, otherwise it would be impossible to have such a high secret method cultivation. No matter how good the qualifications and environmental conditions are, she can't reach this realm without hard work, although it is different from the suffering of martial arts, but it pays more attention to it and has higher requirements.

This is a manifestation of self-confidence and concentration, it seems that the brain does not turn around, but this kind of person is definitely not stupid, he understands it very well, but he is too lazy to ask more and explain. It was clear on the phone just now that she was going to bring "Mei Lande" back to Songhe Valley, and there were still five factions in Songhe Valley who worshiped the mountain, I don't know what happened?

Xiang Yinghua replied casually and meaningfully: "You don't have to thank me, I really don't want you to have an accident here, it's getting dark, let's go." As he spoke, he glanced at the direction of the fierce fight on the side of the mountain beam just now, intentionally or unintentionally.

The little wanderer is more refined than a monkey, and when she saw this action, she guessed one thing, the reason why Xiang Yinghua didn't want to take him back to Songhe Valley immediately was because she didn't want to go back, but it was not good if she didn't go back, so she happened to find an excuse to stay outside, anyway, Sun Fengbo's death needed to be investigated. Under normal circumstances, this kind of thing needs to be investigated by Yinghua in person, is it related to the worship of the five factions of Fengmen?

Seeing that You Fang has already warmly agreed and thanked, You Chengyuan and Chi Mu Duo are not easy to say, there are enough changes encountered today, it is simply impossible to react, at this moment, listen to You Fang.

You Chengyuan went to get the box in the grass, and Chi Mu Duo's attention was suddenly attracted by the bronze short staff in You Fang's hand, and he stepped forward and grabbed his arm and asked, "Xu Kai, where did this thing come from?" ”

You Fang handed it over: "When the gangster left it, what do you see?" ”

Chi Muduo took out a pair of white gloves from his pocket and put them on, carefully took them over and looked at them carefully, and said while looking at them: "It is a cultural relic of the same style as the bronzes unearthed in Nanchu Village, it is too important!" It is difficult to leave this kind of thing in the stolen tombs, and from the perspective of cultural relics research, multiple artifacts need to be compared and identified, and we have unearthed too few physical objects. …… This could be the staff of a priest or the scepter of a tribal leader, and if so, it is not quite the same as the cultural habits of the Yellow River Valley. …… Well, it should be a ceremonial utensil used in sacrificial ceremonies, I have the impression that I have seen it in the murals of the tomb, and there is more than one. ”

You Fang smiled: "I saw that gangster in the village, and I suspected him at that time that he was a black market cultural relics dealer who colluded with the villagers, and it seems that it is true." ”

Xiang Yinghua glanced at You Fang, there was a sudden look in his eyes, and he suddenly interjected: "This thing was unearthed a year ago." Her tone was very sure, even if she was not an expert in cultural relics identification, she could judge the historical aura precipitated on this short staff and the change of the spiritual surname, and this thing had also been cultivated by Sun Fengbo's mind.

You Fang killed Sun Fengbo just now, knowing that there would be fellow Daoists in Songhe Valley to inquire about it, but he took away the magic weapon of the Nine Star Sect's Wearing Staff Hall Master in front of her, which is a very taboo thing in the rivers and lakes. However, Xiang Yinghua didn't ask or stop it, let alone ask You Fang to explain, he just watched coldly with doubts, and finally understood the reason at this moment.

She didn't remind or question anything, on the contrary, she just wanted to see what You Fang and the others were doing? -- Xiang Yinghua's mentality is like this.

"Is Miss Xiang also an expert, how can she know so clearly?" Ikeki Duo, who didn't know why, was curious. At this time, You Chengyuan had already carried the box back, Xiang Yinghua did not answer, and frowned slightly: "It's not early, don't go quickly!" ”

Well? It seems that she wants to leave as soon as possible, and she doesn't want to meet the people who came from Songhe Valley, and of course You Fang doesn't want to, so she beckoned: "It's not suitable to stay here for a long time, Director Chi, Sister Cheng Yuan, let's go quickly!" ”

You Fang really guessed correctly, Xiang Yinghua didn't want to meet with the visitors who came to worship the mountain in Songhe Valley at the moment, and ran into the killing of Sun Fengbo, so he decided to personally "escort" You Fang to find out the situation. She is a master of art and bold, and she is not afraid of what tricks they play.
