Chapter 1: Redemption of the Soul
The land of Kyushu, the world is divided into three. The Changli State monopolized a large area of territory north of the Chang River, and was the most powerful in China among the Three Kingdoms; Located on the eastern coast, Sangyue Country has a small geographical boundary, but a warm climate, rich resources and rich people's livelihood; Xiyouguo, located in the southwest mountainous region, was originally a rogue force, because of the advantage of occupying many mountains and dangers, it has secretly developed for a hundred years, and has quietly grown.
At this time, it is the early spring season, the snow and ice melt, everything stretches, and the cold air wafts with a faint earthy fragrance.
On the path leading to Longyang City in Kyoto from Beiling County in Changli Kingdom, a young man in a light blue robe was walking in the direction of Longyang City. I saw him faltering, his face was tired, but he couldn't hide his handsome appearance and unconventional temperament, and there was a snow-white little monkey sitting on his thin shoulders.
"Xueqiu, we won't be able to go to the capital, let's starve to death and be exhausted, if this appearance is seen by that stinky old man, there will be no shame." Xi Muyu muttered aggrievedly.
"Squeak, squeak" Snowball replied by scratching her head, as if to comfort her.
"Hmm, why didn't there even be a shadow of a person along the way, are we going the wrong way again?" She looked at the trees around her, and her beautiful face overflowed with helplessness.
It seems that it is really good to be at home for a thousand days, but it is difficult to go out for a day! It's only been half a month since she left home, and she let this eldest lady of the Xi family taste the hardships she has not suffered since she was a child. First, he was cheated of money; then was abducted into the Qinglou, almost losing his chastity; Changing into men's clothes and being treated as a thief to send the officer, it was hard to escape, but I didn't want to get lost in a forest, fortunately I met a hunter, and I kindly pointed out the way to the capital for food. But on this day and night, she and Snowball only ate two dry cakes, and they were already tired and hungry by this time.
"Alas!" She sighed heavily, and sat down on a broken log by the side of the road.
It rained last night, the road was still a little slippery, after walking for a few hours, the trouser legs had already been wrapped in mud, looking at his embarrassment, Xi Muyu couldn't help but smile bitterly, if Hanxiao saw her miserable appearance, the pair of big round eyes would probably fall out.
It was almost nowhere, and the trees were dotted with a little bit of fresh green, and the sun was shining into the forest shallowly, without any warmth.
Suddenly, Snowball squeaked and jumped up and down happily, Xi Muyu saw Snowball's abnormal behavior, and immediately cheered after concentrating for a moment: "It's the sound of the carriage, great!" Snowball, we're saved! After speaking, he dodged and hid on the side of the road, and his agility was the same as before.
After a while, I saw a purple-red carriage galloping towards the corner, and the two horses pulling the carriage were both excellent horses, walking like flying on some slippery roads, and the chariot driver seemed to be not fast enough, whipping the horses one after another.
In the blink of an eye, the carriage came closer, Xi Muyu stopped in front of the carriage with a stride, the driver did not expect that the oblique stab would suddenly rush out of the person, frightened, he tightly held the rope, and then rose into the air and slapped a palm at her.
Xi Muyu saw that the palm wind was cold and didn't dare to take it hard, so she fell to the side and rolled down next to the carriage, the snowball grabbed her shoulder tightly, and squeaked at the driver.
The horse could not restrain the momentum of the forward rush, and the front hooves jumped into the air, and the carriage also fell heavily from the ground, and there was a muffled grunt from the car. The driver saw that his palm was slapped in the air, and he heard the movement in the carriage, and in a fit of anger, he drew his sword and pointed at Xi Muyu, shouting: "Get out!" Or I'll kill you! "In normal times, this young man would have died a long time ago, but today the matter is urgent, and he doesn't want to make trouble.
Xi Muyu was about to get up, when he suddenly saw blood dripping into the soil in the carriage, and the blood was dark red and purple, and he couldn't help but be stunned: "Redeem the soul!" ”
Seeing that he ignored him, the driver raised his right hand and stabbed with his sword, Xi Muyu was too late to dodge at this moment because of the previous distraction, and saw that the sword was about to stab her.
"Stop!" Suddenly, a low roar came from inside the carriage, and at the same time, a strong internal force separated the sword qi.
