Qianchen Volume: Concentrate on Cultivation and Hide Hatred, Exploring the Rivers and Lakes to Provoke Old Enemies Chapter 26 Uninvited Guests
Sure enough, it is a good skin, and it is much easier to get things done. Liu Qingmei withdrew from his trance, simply tidied up his armor, and walked to the depths of the inner palace. Without tea, Liu Qingmei came to a chic courtyard, where the mountains are surrounded by water, like a peach source. It's just that what is incompatible with these scenery is that the columns of black-clad and black-armored guards surrounded the place.
Unlike Liu Qingmei's armor, these guards were more solemn and cold. They were dressed in black and black armor, and stood majestically with solemn sticks in their hands. The hideous mask covers the face, making people daunted. Liu Qingmei walked forward slowly, kneeling on one knee not far from the courtyard. Fushou reported: "The lord of the country, the owner of Mingyue Mansion is already on the way to chase the murderer at this time, and he can't go to the appointment." There was no answer in the door for a long time, and after a while, an old man dressed as a eunuch slowly walked out and said to Liu Qingmei: "The lord of the country already knows, you should step down." Liu Qingmei didn't say much, got up and saluted, and then turned to leave.
Soon after she left, a middle-aged man dressed casually, with a disheveled hair and a yellowed book in his hand, walked out slowly and stood silent in front of the door. Seeing the old eunuch who came, he suddenly knelt on the ground, and asked with his hand: "Lord of the country, what do you command?" The man still looked at the book in his hand intently, and muttered to himself, "How can the plot in this book be so ingenious." You come and go, not like mortals can find it. ”
The old eunuch thought for a moment and replied: "What does the lord of the country mean, let people follow and have a look?" The middle-aged man suddenly closed the book in his hand and said to the old eunuch beside him: "Take advantage of the rainy night, it is better to add some light, the widow is a little tired of reading, and needs some fresh stories to relieve his boredom." The old eunuch agreed, turned around and whispered a few words to a black-armored guard next to him. When the man heard this, he hurried out. Only then did the old eunuch turn to the lord of the country and say, "Your Majesty wait, the story is about to begin." ”
The middle-aged man stretched his waist and turned lazily to walk into the house, but the old eunuch followed in a panic but not in a hurry, and slowly pulled the door down, and the courtyard here returned to calm, as if no one had ever come.
Not long after Liu Qingmei walked out of the door, a black-armored guard chased after her and said to her: "Commander Qiqi, the lord of the country has an order to order you to follow closely behind, and you will return on time, and there must be no mistakes." Liu Qingmei replied to the order, then turned around and galloped away. At this time, although she didn't know the intentions of the lord of the country, she also guessed that she was close to Nalan, and she didn't feel that her heart was tight, so she ran out of the palace wall......
At this time, Luo Xiu and Chixin had already escaped from the capital and were running in the direction of Lonely Howling Heights. It's just that Chixin was ambushed by the hidden pile buried by Nalan just now, and was shot by a short arrow in the waist and eye, and blood was dripping out, and his face was gradually becoming weaker. And because Luo Xiu wanted to take her, his speed also slowed down, and he looked back from time to time to see if anyone had caught up.
Although Chixin was seriously injured at this time, his mind was still clear, so he said to Luo Xiu: "Nalan has been fooled, if we keep this speed, I think he will be able to catch up soon." At that time, you will have to stop him. Luo Xiu shook his head and sighed, "Why are you so careless? Can you still be punished? Chixin shook his head and said, "That man's shot was as swift as the wind, and his breath was covered by this heavy rain, so I walked in a hurry and didn't notice anything, so I landed."
"Then do you see that person's face, or the number of exercises?" Although Luo Xiu was worried, he still asked coldly. Chixin shook his head, as if he would hurt his vitality if he continued to talk about it. Luo Xiu didn't ask any more questions, and continued to hurry with his red heart.
At this time, Nalan did not delay after meeting with the dark pile, and chased all the way along the bloodstains of Chixin, but it did take some time to find the right direction for the bloodstains to be washed away. Fortunately, there was no expectation to go, and the general direction was to Lonely Whistling Heights. Nalan no longer hesitated, and chased after him at an accelerated speed. Soon after the start, Liu Qingmei also caught up, relying on the unique tracking technique of the official yamen, following the direction of the two passers-by, and also chased up.
In this way, I kept chasing and fleeing, and the sky was unaware that there were signs of clearing, and the heavy rain that had fallen all night was gradually collected and slowly eased. After a long night's journey, Luo Xiu and Chixin were exhausted, so they found a cave on the road and prepared to wait for the rain to stop before leaving. When he came to the cave, Chi Xin spat out the blood, and the whole person suddenly collapsed on the ground.
Seeing this, Luo Xiu didn't mean to help, but just took a shallow look, and then a wooden bottle emerged from his waist, and a black pill was taken out for Chi Xin to take. He went out, and after a while he gathered some firewood and came back. When the fire was lit, Chixin's complexion softened a little. Luo Xiu went out to hunt a few hares, shaved and deboned, and roasted them.
Xu recovered from the thrill of the night, and her naked stomach screamed a few times, and she also returned to her usual cynical appearance, sticking out her tongue. Luo Xiu was still roasting the rabbit with a blank face, but handed the one that was almost roasted in his hand to Chixin and asked her to wait for it to cool before eating. Chixin was probably hungry, and without waiting for the rabbit to cool down completely, he grabbed the rabbit's leg and began to tear it, but occasionally he was burned, so he bared his teeth and yelled twice.
Luo Xiu turned a deaf ear at all, just looked at the rabbit in his hand intently, and after it cooled down, he ate it slowly. After eating the rabbit in his hand, he wiped his hands with the hay in the hole, turned his head to Luo Xiu and said, "Even if this is the case, you still have to eat so carefully?" Luo Xiu didn't answer, just ate silently. After eating, he wiped it on his body, stood up and walked out of the cave.
The sun shines down after the rain, and the earth has a toasted earthy fragrance, which is a unique taste after the rain. Seeing Luo Xiu walk out, Chixin felt bored, so he stood up and followed. After a short period of adjustment, Chixin's mental and physical strength have recovered a lot, and after a short bandage, the wound has no effect on the journey. Luo Xiu no longer cared whether he could keep up with his heart, and suddenly accelerated his pace and ran forward.
After a while, a dense forest appeared in front of him, and Luo Xiu walked this road many times, even if he had his eyes closed, he could walk through, but at this time he had a trace of fear of this wood. This unprovoked fear suddenly lingered in his heart, as if it were nothing, and made Luo Xiu begin to feel uneasy. Chixin came to Luo Xiu, and also noticed the strangeness of the woods, and the killer's intuition made Chixin lift his spirit, follow Luo Xiu, and walked in cautiously.
The sun was still shining outside the woods, but inside the woods was a bleak scene, and the dense woods crisscrossed it made it even more eerie. At this time, Chi Xin asked coldly, "Is there anyone in the woods?" As soon as the words fell, several figures flashed, and soon appeared in front of the two. The first person is Nalan, the owner of Mingyue Building. It's just that now his face is silent, full of a cold sense of slaughter.
Seeing Luo Xiu and Chixin, Nalan didn't speak, but just signaled to the three people around him, and slowly retreated into the darkness. One of the three, a short, lean man was already eager to try, and although he had a broken leg, it could not stop his arrogance. I only heard him shouting: "I am the victory of Mingyue Tower, and you will die." It turned out that this person was Gao Sheng, who was cut off by Nalan that day, but I didn't expect Nalan to keep him until now, Luo Xiu thought coldly.
At this time, a red-haired man walked out, pushed Gao Sheng away, and said, "Let me clean them up." While they were arguing, the other man murmured, "If you continue to be so irritable, I don't mind killing your sister together." After saying that, he laughed coldly. When they heard the man's words, the two men withdrew and said no more.
When the two of them quieted down, the man took a step forward and said, "In the next Mingyue Building, Liu owes again, and today is polite." Hearing this name, Luo Xiu and Chixin were both at a loss, but they did not take it lightly. This is Nalan's voice coming from a distance, "This Mr. Liu has not long been in Houtang, and he is the guest of honor in my building, and the girl must have understood it just now." ”
A trace of cold sweat broke out behind Chi Xin at this time, and he turned his head to Luo Xiu and said, "This person hurt me." Liu smiled sinisterly, and said obscenely: "The girl's blood tastes very good, why don't you give some more to Zaixia?" As soon as the words fell, he jumped out and shot out, without the slightest respite with the two of them. Luo Xiu rushed this person over, and then protected the red heart behind him, although the two of them usually do not deal with each other, but when it comes to the critical moment, they still take into account the friendship of the same village.
I saw that Liu Youyao's hands were like eagle claws, with a left protrusion and hook, and the offensive was extremely fierce. Chi Xin knew very little about the martial arts of this path, so he could only dodge and dodge. After Luo Xiu fought with Liu Youyao, he blurted out, "Chi Rongguo? Are you Chi Rong royalty? Liu Youqian smiled coldly again, acquiescing to Luo Xiu's words. Nalan's lazy voice sounded again, "I owe my brother again, women don't have to keep their hands, men must stay alive, I still have something to ask him." ”
Liu Youyao smiled coldly and said, "Then it will be as Brother Nalan wishes." Then he turned and attacked the red heart. The naked heart couldn't dodge, and was grabbed by a claw in the back of the heart, and suddenly his clothes were broken, and he was drenched in blood. Liu owed another blow and was about to take advantage of the victory to pursue, but was attacked by Luo Xiu from behind, so he could only temporarily retreat. The three of them were at a stalemate, and everyone on the side was watching coldly, and it seemed that the situation was a foregone conclusion.
Just when the two sides were fighting, a hearty laughter came from a distance, accompanied by laughter and a few words, which immediately turned the seven points of the red heart into smoke. I only heard people say: "Aunt Chixin, why did you make such a mess, the owner sent me to pick you up." Look at you, let's go and tease the little fresh meat again. "The person who came was none other than Gu Xing, who had not been seen for a long time. In the past few years, under the tempering of Zai Moye, the monk who is not familiar and Gu Lingding, Gu Xing has made rapid progress, and he has already reached the realm of the fifth-order initial product, and at the same time, the use of poison techniques can be described as first-class, and no one in the valley can match it.
Chi Xin arranged countless assassinations for Gu Xing over the years, at first it was nine deaths, and then it became a cat-and-mouse game, but Gu Xing became a cat, and the assassin became a mouse. Chixin was also stimulated enough by Gu Xing's crazy words from time to time. It's just that I never expected that the back hand arranged by the owner would be him.
