Chapter 40 The Change of the City Lord's Mansion
On Aoxue Peak, Mengxue was still dressed in plain white clothes, standing in the wind on the empty snow.
Although it is only halfway up the mountain, the strong wind mixed with snowflakes is like countless sharp ice blades, and even the strongest wine cannot dispel such cold.
Mengxue was wearing thin clothes, standing in the snow and cold wind, making people feel the urge to hug her slightly slender body into her arms,
Ye Lingyu hugged his arms and shivered, and came to her cautiously,
"Master gone?" Meng Xue asked, looking into the distance.
Ye Lingyu nodded slightly: "He said to leave for a few days." ”
"Since I was sensible, the master has never left Aoxue Peak. Meng Xue retracted her gaze, as if confiding, and as if muttering to herself.
Ye Lingyu was slightly stunned, he didn't know why Meng Xue suddenly talked about the past, if an ordinary girl wants to confide in her heart, she has always said it to the person closest to her, but for Meng Xue, who is Ye Lingyu? Especially after learning the truth about recruiting relatives from the Red Dust Knife, he didn't believe that Meng Xue would really fall in love with him.
"Elder Hong's reluctance to leave Aoxue Peak should have his own reasons. Ye Lingyu could only take over the topic.
"It's not that you don't want to leave, it's that you can't leave. Meng Xue turned her gaze to Ye Lingyu, and her gaze was as clear as snow, which made Ye Lingyu look in a trance, "When the master was young, he galloped across the continent, and in order to fight for a famous life, he also created countless killings, and when he was old, in order to no longer stain blood, he retired on this Aoxue Peak." Because his reputation is really bad, and he is afraid of being found by the enemy, he stays on Aoxue Peak and does not come out all year round. Even when the stubborn disease attacked, he was still reluctant to take half a step, so in the end he thought of using the way of recruiting relatives to find someone. ”
Ye Lingyu scratched his cheek, looking like he understood. But in my heart, I thought, beauty, your mind is too simple.
If it's just to find someone who exorcises drugs, it's not about how many methods are needed.
It is true that the old man is reluctant to leave Ao Xuefeng, but he has other plans in his heart, he really wants to help his daughter find a wishful husband, but you not only misunderstood his thoughts, but also helped him speak.
Ye Lingyu looked at Mengxue and shook his head with a smile.
But then again, Ye Lingyu really didn't see it before, that old guy from the Red Dust Knife was once famous for killing.
"I think the Red Dust Knife shouldn't be his real name, but he calls himself Hongchen, which means to see through the Red Dust, since he has seen through it, then why bother to trace the past right and wrong. ”
Meng Xue's slender eyelashes gently incited: "You can see it quite openly." ”
Ye Lingyu shrugged his shoulders: "As the saying goes, the past is like a cloud." ”
"Then let me ask you, did you participate in the recruitment of relatives before because of that prince?"
"Yes. Ye Lingyu replied unequivocally, this is the case, and he has nothing to hide.
Meng Xue's head drooped slightly, and the afterglow looked at Ye Lingyu's side face: "What if...... I mean, if there was no prince in this world, and I was not for the sake of my master, but sincerely wanted to find a husband, would you still participate?"
Ye Lingyu was stunned by her question, and didn't know how to take it for a while.
Seeing his stunned appearance, Meng Xue couldn't help but smile.
The smile on that cold face overshadowed the surrounding snowy scene.
Ye Lingyu lost his mind for a while before he recovered, then coughed lightly twice, and quickly opened the topic: "I also have some insights about helping Hong Lao remove toxins before, and I may retreat for a while, if there is any news of Mo Fei, remember to tell me." ”
"That's right, I have something to do during this time. Meng Xue's gaze turned to the direction of the top of the Snow Peak, "On the top of the mountain, there is a 10,000-year-old Snow Flower that is about to ripen, and I need to make some preparations these days." ”
"Xue Yaohua?" Ye Lingyu heard this name for the first time.
Seeing his ignorant appearance, Meng Xue could only explain step by step: "Xue Yaohua is a rare and visible treasure of heaven and earth. Have you ever wondered why the weather in Proud Snow City is not very cold, why is it snowy on Proud Snow Peak? ”
"Could it be that it's all because of Xue Yaohua?"
Meng Xue nodded slightly: "The heaven and earth spirit objects that can change the weather, you don't need to tell me how precious they are." Snow Yaohua, ten thousand years of maturity, if a martial artist with ice attribute spiritual power takes it, it can greatly improve his physique, according to legend, those who take Xue Yaohua will not be lower than the ground level in the future. ”
"Steps. Ye Lingyu couldn't help but marvel.
This is not only to improve physical fitness, this can be said to be a washing of tendons.
It can give a person the potential to move up the ladder. What is a level? That's all about being strong.
If the Heavenly Rank is the Taishan Beidou on this continent, then the Earth-level martial artists are undoubtedly the helmsmen of all forces.
Of the 10,000 Yellow-Rank Martial Artists, one hundred of them may be promoted to the Xuan Rank, but among the 100 Xuan Rank Martial Artists, one may not be able to advance to the Ground Rank. Just like what Hongchen Dao once said, on the way to cultivation, diligence can only be ranked second, and the first is a person's understanding. If you don't have enough understanding, even if you work hard, you can only be mediocre.
If the existence of Xue Yaohua is exposed, I don't know how many warriors will come to fight, and then maybe it will be another bloody storm.
"As soon as this kind of natural material and earth treasure matures in ten thousand years, it is so difficult to mature, isn't it even more difficult to collect it?"
"You don't have to worry about that. Meng Xue said lightly, "The master has already laid out the formation before leaving, and the method of collecting it has already told me, and I only need to urge the formation when the time comes." ”
"Won't there be any danger?"
"You're caring about me?"
Ye Lingyu scratched his head a little sneeringly.
Meng Xue smiled: "Don't worry, there will be no problem, if you want to retreat, just go, anyway, you can't help if you stay." ”
In this regard, Ye Lingyu could only bow his head and admit it. It is an indisputable fact that the strength is too low, and staying will only get in the way. Although it is true to say this, it always sounds like a needle is piercing your heart.
"Okay, if anything, call me. After Ye Lingyu finished speaking, he was about to walk towards the wooden house.
But as soon as he moved his steps, he suddenly heard Mengxue "huh".
"What's wrong?" Ye Lingyu hurriedly turned around and asked.
Meng Xue's cold eyes revealed a chill, and she looked in the direction of the foot of the mountain: "Someone has touched the prohibition. ”
Hearing her say this, Ye Lingyu's heart suddenly became alert. The forbidden place of Proud Snow City, usually few people come here. Not long after the Red Dust Knife left, someone appeared at the foot of the mountain, which was not a good sign.
"Could it be Mo Fei?" Ye Lingyu suddenly remembered that guy.
Meng Xue's eyes were still a little uneasy: "When he left, I opened the forbidden jade pendant for him, it doesn't look like him." ”
With that, Meng Xue took out a bronze disc from the Qiankun Ring. The center of the disc protrudes upwards and is uneven all around. Although Ye Lingyu saw it for the first time, he recognized it at a glance, and the protruding part in the center of the disc was clearly a shrunken Aoxue Peak.
The landscape on the disc is the area covered by the prohibition.
The disc vibrates slightly, and in the southeast it is where the fluctuations are most intense.
Meng Xue and Ye Lingyu glanced at each other, and without saying more, they rushed towards the southeast together.
"What kind of attacks are the most forbidden to withstand. On the way to the race, Ye Lingyu asked.
"According to what the master said, even if the ground level master comes, he may not be able to break it. ”
"Ground Rank ......" Ye Lingyu has a relative, the Red Dust Knife can lay down such a prohibition, and its strength is really extraordinary, he glanced at Meng Xue again, "If there is danger for a while, you will stay in the prohibition and don't come out." ”
"What? Do you want to be a hero at this time?"
"I'm too lazy to tell you, just do what I say. Ye Lingyu's tone cannot be denied.
"I'm not a weak woman, besides, none of you men can rely on ......"
Without waiting for Meng Xue to finish speaking, Ye Lingyu quickened his pace and rushed to the front.
Meng Xue's face changed slightly in the back, how could this man be so domineering, it was unreasonable.
The speed of the two of them was not slow, and in a moment, they came to the place where the prohibition was touched.
A psychedelic array was placed in the forbidden place, and from the outside it looked like a thin layer of fog, and it was impossible to see the inside. But when you look at it from the inside, you can see it clearly.
"This is ......" Ye Lingyu looked at the scene outside the ban, his face was a little unnatural.
Mengxue's situation is similar to him.
Outside of that prohibition there were many people in armor roaming.
Looking at the style of the armor, it should be the guards of Aoxue City. They were bustling in the surrounding jungle, and there were twenty or thirty people in the area in front of them alone.
"How can there be so many?" Meng Xue came to Ye Lingyu's side.
Most people know that the ban on Aoxue Peak is laid down by a master, and few people generally dare to come here easily.
"I'm afraid there is a change in the City Lord's Mansion. The corners of Ye Lingyu's eyes became sharper and sharper.
will order these people to come, you don't have to think about it to know, the city lord will definitely not give such an order, the one who gave the order must be An Junfeng's house, that bastard is really a thief. But then again, now that the soldiers of Proud Snow City have been mobilized by An Junfeng, where is the city lord of Proud Snow City now?
Ye Lingyu was haunted in his heart, and beckoned to Mengxue: "Is there any jade pendant that has opened the ban?"
"I don't know what you're going to do, but don't mess around. Meng Xue solemnly warned, but still gave a piece of jade to Ye Lingyu.
Ye Lingyu took it casually, and then pressed it lightly on the prohibition, and a one-person-high hole immediately appeared in the place where it touched. Ye Lingyu rushed out quickly, with a little footsteps, and rushed towards the nearest guard.
Seeing his sudden move, Meng Xue was shocked.
Ye Lingyu's speed was so fast, the strength of the guards was only the fifth layer of the Yellow Order, and before he could react, he was grabbed by Ye Lingyu's throat.
Ye Lingyu quickly turned around, dragged the guards, and quickly returned to the prohibition.
"Wait...... Wait, don't kill me!" the guard cried as he lifted his hand and gradually recognized the situation.
Ye Lingyu turned his hand and put him still on the ground, exuding a faint killing intent on his body: "Answer my question honestly, and I will spare your dog's life." ”
"Yes...... Don't kill me...... Whatever you ask, I know everything I know. ”
"Let me ask you, what is the situation in the City Lord's Mansion now, what about the City Lord and his family?"
This is what Ye Lingyu wants to know most at the moment.
The guard first looked at Meng Xue next to him, and then looked back at the ghostly Ye Lingyu, and couldn't help but tremble: "That...... That ......"
"Say it quickly!" Ye Lingyu was really a little impatient.
"That...... The city lord's family is all ...... It's all in the prince's ...... ...... hand," the guard said, slurring.
"And then, what's going on now?"
"That's it...... The city lord's family, tomorrow in front of the city lord's mansion...... Beheading. ”
