Chapter 105: Movement of the Two Sides
"I know where. ”
Yue Qianlong turned his head to look at Qi Yan, by the way, he grew up in Mengchi Town, and he actually forgot about him.
"Then you draw us a map, and we'll find it. ”
"Even if we find it, how much water can you two bring back? If you save this child, can you still save everyone in the south of the city? Now we have to find out why Mengchi Town is short of water, so that we can cure the root cause. ”
One step in place, it makes sense.
Yue Qianlong turned to ask the child, "Little Liu, can you talk to us about it?"
"I don't know the specifics, but there were originally many wells in the city, but since the wind and sand for decades, the wells in the city have slowly dried up, and everyone is trapped in the city and can't go out to find water, so they can only wait for death. ”
"Didn't you try to dig the well deeper?"
"Everyone has tried, and no matter how deep the well is, all you can see is yellow sand, not even a drop of water. ”
"Then didn't the small river in front of the Nie Family Sect Temple you said flow through the location of these wells?"
"I heard my father and mother say that it used to flow, but after the wind and sand, the river was diverted and no longer flowed through the whole town of Mengchi. ”
Diverted?Yue Chitaki understood, "Where did you divert it?"
"At the corner of the south and east of the city, there is now a cemetery. ”
"Looks like we're going there. ”
Qi Yan tried to prop himself up and said, "I'll go with you." ”
"Master, you better have a good rest, you are injured, and we can't use our internal strength and sword qi in the Mengchi Array, do you go or become a burden to us?"
"If they say this is what I am because I was born, how can I stay out of it?"
Yue Qianlong pursed her mouth, she knew that she couldn't persuade this person.
"It's almost dawn now, so let's wait until after nightfall today. ”
Xiao Liu listened on the sidelines, blinked again, and said, "Why do you say that Mengchi Town has become like this because of you, you ...... Is the surname Qi?"
"That's right," Qi Yan didn't hide it, "My name is Qi Yan, and it was when I was born that there was wind and sand, and since then I have trapped Mengchi Array." ”
"Are you Qi Yan?" the child was silent for a while, and then asked, "You, can you go out?" I always thought that you had died in the yellow sand. ”
Yes, since the Mengchi Array was besieged by the wind and sand, as long as the people in the town took a step out of the city gate, they would inevitably be buried by the quicksand, this scene Xiao Liu had seen thousands of times. When he was a child, he also heard many rumors about Qi Yan, everyone said that he was a disaster star from the sky, and they all said that Mengchi Town became a purgatory on earth because of him. However, although Xiao Liu listened to it, he didn't believe it in his heart, he didn't think that the birth of a life was a bad thing, let alone harmful to the common people. And after that, Qi Yan knew what the ending was, and resolutely walked out of the city gate, and this place did not change in the slightest after Qi Yan disappeared, but even so, everyone seemed unwilling to forgive him or even forget him, and he must attribute all the misfortunes and sufferings in this life to him alone.
"The moment you walked out of the city gate, did you want to kill yourself?"
Qi Yan was stunned, he didn't expect this kid to ask such an irrelevant question.
"The people in the city must have done a lot of excessive things to you, and when I think about it, you should have been about my age. ”
"Suicide?" Maybe yes, Qi Yan looked at the little boy with dirt on his face, and said that he was also left here by the people of Mengchi Town to wait for death, "I just want to be pure, when I am in Mengchi Town, life or death is no different for me." ”
"You walked out of the city gate but were not swallowed by quicksand, perhaps, God just let you come back to save Mengchi Town. ”
Qi Yan was stunned, he didn't speak, just lay down and closed his eyes to recuperate.
Now there is no water in this room at all, and it is very difficult for the three of them to stay, especially Qi Yan, after his previous blood loss, his body has become hot in just an hour.
Yue Qianlong picked up the water bladder, got up and said, "No, I have to go get water first, otherwise they will all die of thirst." ”
"No, I'll go. ”
"Ah Jue, you better stay and take care of them. ”
"My martial arts are purer than yours, even if I don't use internal strength and sword energy, I won't be ruled by those people. After Su Jue finished speaking, he grabbed the water bladder and left, not giving Yue Qianlong another chance.
They waited in the house for two hours, and finally waited for Su Jue back after noon, the man brought back a full water bladder, Yue Qianlong gave Xiao Liu a little after the water bag, and used some to moisten Qi Yan's lips and clear his wounds. After that, Qi Yan seemed to be asleep again, and his body was not as hot as in the morning.
"Jue, what's going on in Chengdong now?"
"There is no one in front of the Nie Family Sect Temple, it seems that they are all searching for our bodies in the mountains and forests that burned down last night. ”
"What about the corner between the east and south corners of the city?"
"I didn't pay attention, but I felt a strong sense of pressure as I approached the corner, and there must be something there. ”
"Something?"
"I'll talk about it in the evening. ”
Northern Regions, Huayang City.
Twilight Zhaoming and Li Ran have been guarding here for a few days without any movement, could it be that Liu Yan hasn't used any internal strength in the past few days?
Twilight Zhaoming was a little anxious, "How is Ning Chen's side?"
"He said everything was fine. ”
"What do you mean?"
He said that Su Jue and Yue Qianlong were both staying in the palace, and there was no change in Ning Wangfu, so we can rest assured. ”
"Why hasn't Qi Yan been moving? Hasn't he been in a hurry to recover his strength? He's so quiet, it's not right. ”
"Wrong?" Li Ran thought for a while, and then said: "He originally came to Huayang City to conceal his whereabouts, and his sword qi suddenly disappeared in the city, or he found Ning Chen who was following behind, I think, he already knew that we had laid an enchantment in the city." The reason why they don't act is to deal with us. ”
"You mean, there's no point in us staying put?"
Li Ran fell into deep thought, now that they have withdrawn, they have not withdrawn, and they have not withdrawn, what should they do?
"What about the news of Taihua Mountain?"
"Again, no anomalies. ”
"Let Zhao Qingyi relax her supervision of Fei Yan, if she has action, she doesn't have to stop her, just let people follow her secretly. ”
Li Ran's face changed, "Do you suspect Fei Yan?"
"This girl has always only had her master in her heart, and it is not impossible to help him desperately. ”
"But Qi Yan has killed Zixi now, with the intimacy between Yan and Zixi, she can't be Qi Yan's internal response. ”
"Today's Taihua, nothing is impossible, just tell me to go down as soon as possible. ”
Li Ran's heart was sour, the current Taihua is not an exaggeration to say that it is falling apart, there is an internal response to the Northern Regions hidden in the door, which is also a tacit understanding between him and Twilight Zhaoming, Fei Yan looked abnormal after returning from the Yongqian Palace, and he was extremely calm when he heard the news of Zixi's death, which had to make himself suspicious of Twilight Zhaoming.
After receiving Li Ran's summons, Zhao Qingyi was puzzled, this is obviously a simple and innocent child, how could Li Ran suspect the two of them of collusion because of her master-apprentice relationship with Qi Yan?
"Senior sister, what are you thinking about sitting here alone?"
Zhao Qingyi immediately turned around and said with a cold face, "What are you doing here in the Void Garden?"
"This is Master's garden, and I am also Master's disciple, can you come, Senior Sister, can't I come to tidy up the garden for Master's filial piety?"
Zhao Qingyi ignored this person and was about to leave.
"Senior sister, you are now a senior disciple of teaching, do you have to put this shelf in front of your junior brother?"
"What are you looking for me?"
"What you told me to do, there is a movement. ”
"You say it's not Yan?"
"Well, the disciples outside the Tianji Hall couldn't sit still as soon as they withdrew, and they had already left the mountain gate by taking advantage of the moonlight, and now they were being followed by the cultivators. ”
Fei Yan wanted to go down the mountain? But she was very safe in the door these days, and she didn't mention anything about going down the mountain to herself, and Fei Yan really hid something from them.
"You go with her and see where she's going. ”
"Are you going to bring her back?"
"No need, just see who she's seen, where she's been and come back to report it. ”
"Senior sister, you are guarding against non-shame," Yu Ze played with taste: "Is this the order of the head master, or is it the meaning of you alone, senior sister?"
"You don't want to obey?"
"It's not that I don't want to, it's just that Yu Ze wants to know whose life I wanted. ”
"If you don't go, stay in the door. ”
Seeing Zhao Qingyi moving, Yu Ze immediately stuck to it again, and said obediently: "Senior sister, don't be angry, I just asked a few more words, senior sister, when did I Yu Zeshirk what you ordered? I will go down the mountain now, and I will definitely live up to my mission." ”
He had already gotten the answer, and Yu was satisfied. This order must have been given by Du Zhaoming, but since Zhao Qingyi was willing to let himself spy on Ruan Feiyan, it showed that they were not suspicious of him, and now it was just right, he was still worried about what should happen in Taihua Mountain, but now he went down the mountain just in time to find an opportunity to put all the blame on Ruan Feiyan, it was really wonderful.
Ruan Feiyan, this girl, went to Mirage City as Yu Ze thought, many years have passed, and looking at these buildings again, Yu Ze couldn't help but sigh in his heart, he was still a child who didn't care when he left last time, even if Xiao Qiyu made him the prince, he didn't understand what the meaning of this title was. Although he is the prince of the Northern Regions, he is more intimate with Taihua Mountain than the Northern Regions. At least Zhao Qingyi is still in Taihua Mountain, but in the Northern Regions, only Xiao Qiyu, the emperor who is very alienated from him, although they have an uncle and nephew who are related by blood, but Xiao Qiyu has not seen him for many years, and Yu Ze is not sure now, whether that person will be the young man in his memory.
However, thinking of the various Xiao Qiyu who got rid of the Muyan family before, it was still considered comprehensive, and Yu Ze now felt that Xiao Qiyu was more and more suitable for this throne, and he himself was better to be an idle and wandering person. He thought about it, if he could help the Northern Regions survive the catastrophe this time, he and Xiao Qiyu would resign from the position of the prince, and persuade that person to extend the heir to the throne as soon as possible. Anyway, this son belongs to the Xiao family, and Xiao Qiyu is not a bad treat to his children, let alone a shame on his father. Speaking of which, his father killed his brother to seize the throne, this is the most disgraceful thing that makes Yu Ze feel the most disgraceful, and it is precisely because of this that he took the initiative to avoid Taihua Mountain and serve the Northern Regions in secret, maybe this can also reduce his father's guilt for the Xiao family.
