Thunderstorms began to fall in the gloomy sky, and the people who had toiled in the fields gathered up their tools and ran briskly towards their houses. In the bleak world on the outskirts of Zhongzhou, Meng Yan, who was extremely worried about Ouyang He's safety, was driving a fast horse at this moment, desperately rushing towards the direction of the City God Temple.

"What murderer, what mole, I don't know what you're talking about!" Ouyang He felt very inexplicable in the face of the questioning of everyone in Lieyang Gate.

"Senior brother, this girl has a really hard mouth, it seems that she won't admit to killing the head if she doesn't give her a little bit of power." The Lieyang Sect disciple who had rubbed Senior Brother's shoulders before pouted vigorously on the side.

"Hmph, Ouyang He, seeing that you are just an ordinary weak woman now, Lao Tzu didn't want to embarrass you too much. As long as you admit that you killed our former head in the ghost castle and signed a confession, you can also avoid suffering from these flesh and skin, and maybe the big guy can still give you a good time when the martial arts trial is held in the future. The senior brother shook the leather whip in his hand in front of Ouyang He's eyes and said viciously.

"Hehe, are you planning to bend into a trick? But I tell you, no matter what you want to do to me, even if you kill me, I will never admit to doing anything I have never done. Ouyang He was still fearless in the face of the threat of the people in the Lieyang Gate, and at the same time, she also replied categorically to the senior brother of the Lieyang Gate who was standing in front of her.

"Okay, since Miss Ouyang is so bold, then don't blame us for being polite. Do it! ”

The senior brother handed the leather whip in his hand to the ugly-looking Lieyang Sect disciple who had rubbed his shoulders before, and then the disciple showed a very obscene smile and then hit Ouyang He's body hard. Ouyang He gritted his teeth and endured the incomparably piercing pain of the whip hitting him, and at the same time, the bloody wounds drawn by the whip were also exposed in front of everyone's eyes along with the torn clothes.

"Ahh After forcibly enduring more than ten lashes, Ouyang He finally couldn't hold back the severe pain and screamed.

"Hahaha, let you be hard-mouthed, when I knock you out, you don't have to obediently sign a confession for the old men." The disciple said to Ouyang He with a smile while whipping, "When these things are done, we will also let you follow the brothers to be happy, haha!" ”

Ouyang Hehe, who had been cared for and raised in the boudoir since she was a child, had suffered so much, so when she endured dozens of whips and fierce whippings, her eyes gradually darkened and she sank into a coma.

"Hehe, even if the people in the rivers and lakes blow her to the gods, she is just a woman in the end, and her fine skin and tender flesh can't withstand torture. Come on, let her draw a charge on her confession. Senior Brother Lieyangmen said triumphantly.

After listening to Senior Brother's instructions, the rest of the Lieyang Sect disciples immediately took out the pre-prepared confession and prepared to cover Ouyang He's handprint while she was unconscious. At this moment, a bag of flour suddenly spilled into the temple from the leaky roof, and the people in the temple were immediately thrown into chaos.

Meng Yan, who arrived at the City God Temple in time, jumped into the temple along the beam and cut the rope that bound Ouyang He with a sharp knife. He then quickly rushed out of the house with the unconscious Ouyang He on his back, and the senior brother of the Lieyang Sect, who reacted at this time, immediately led his subordinates to chase him out quickly.

Meng Yan carried Ouyang He on his back and searched around the mountains for a place to hide, and finally the emperor lived up to his wishes, and he found a small cave in a dense overburden that was just big enough for the two of them to live in.

Looking at Ouyang He, who had finally recovered but had become scarred again, Meng Yan's heart was as painful as if he had been pierced by ten thousand steel needles, and tears the size of beans slowly fell from his flour-stained cheeks.

He took out what little gold he had left and gently applied it to some of the more bleeding wounds, then he tore off the fabric of his clothes and bandaged them briefly.

Worried that the people from Lieyang Gate had not gone far yet, Meng Yan did not dare to take Ouyang He out of the cave easily. Since the rain was heavy at the moment, and the blood dripping from Ouyang He's fingertips along the way had become imperceptible after being diluted by the rain, on the whole, it was still safe for them to stay in this cave for the time being.

Meng Yan carefully placed Ouyang He in a soft place in the cave with a lot of hay paving, and then gently covered Ouyang He's body with the shabby but cold coat on his body.

Meng Yan sat on the side and slowly wiped away the flour and water droplets on Ouyang He's face with his sleeves, while at the same time, he stared at this beautiful face that he might never get tired of looking at in his life with those delicate and gentle eyes.

"Ling Gongzi, Ling Gongzi, you go quickly, leave me alone!" Ouyang He's brows suddenly moved a few times, and then she whispered softly as if she was talking in a dream.

"Ling Gongzi ......" Meng Yan's originally calm thoughts became chaotic in an instant after he heard Ouyang He's soft murmur.

"Perhaps, compared to me who is good for nothing now, he ...... It can bring you the life you want......"

Meng Yan's eyes did not become a little sluggish because of Ouyang He's murmuring, he was still staring at Ouyang He's sleeping face like a child with affection as before. In the heart of this nineteen-year-old boy who has already experienced all kinds of hardships in the world at a young age, the girl lying beside him at this time may be an eternal light in his bleak life, making him feel the warmth and comfort of being by his side again.

Meng ...... Meng Gongzi, you ...... How did you end up here? Ouyang He took advantage of Meng Yan's daze on the stone wall and gradually woke up, and Meng Yan's slightly majestic figure in front of her made her feel a little surprised and surprised.

"Senior brother, there seems to be a cave here, should we go in and have a look?" Meng Yan was happily preparing to answer Ouyang He, however, the movement of the disciples of the Lieyang Sect outside the cave made Meng Yan, who had finally relaxed his body and mind, have to become nervous again.

"Hehe, this cave is so hidden, it's okay, you take a few junior disciples in there to investigate." The senior brother decisively agreed, and several Lieyang Sect disciples shook off the rain on their bodies and tiptoed into the cave.

"What to do, what to do, there are so many of them, and I am powerless now, and it is impossible for me to leave here safe and sound with He'er on my back." Meng Yan nervously listened to the footsteps of the Burning Sun Sect disciples getting closer and closer, and at the same time, he nervously thought of a way to get Ouyang He out of his mind.

"Meng Gongzi, hurry, you hide quickly, the person they are looking for is me, it has nothing to do with you, I don't want to lose any of you anymore." Ouyang He clenched her teeth with a frown, and then she forced herself to stand up slowly, "As long as I follow them, you will be safe, you will be safe......"

Ouyang He said to himself as he dragged his injured right leg and walked slowly in the direction of the cave entrance.

"He'er, you stop!" Meng Yan rushed forward with an arrow step and clicked on several acupuncture points of Ouyang He, and Ouyang He lost consciousness again with a look of surprise and fainted in his arms.

"He'er, I'm sorry, this may be the last time I'll beg your forgiveness." Meng Yan's eyes moistened and put Ouyang He in a dim corner in the depths of the cave, and then he quickly uprooted the hay around him and completely covered Ouyang He's body, "For He'er, I'm afraid I can only take a risk now." May God bless her, and He'er can get out of danger smoothly. ”

Meng Yan took off Ouyang He's coat and wrapped his clothes around a slender stone, then he picked up the stone on his back, preparing to take advantage of the dark weather during the thunderstorm to trick the disciples of the Lieyang Sect outside the door into deceiving the disciples outside the door from this place.

This plan went unexpectedly smoothly in the process of Meng Yan's implementation. When the disciples, including the senior brother of the Lieyang Sect, saw Meng Yan rushing out of the cave with the stone on his back, they chased after Meng Yan one after another, so at this time, there were no disciples of the Lieyang Sect who were still guarding the door of the cave just now.

Perhaps it was already arranged by the heavens, and not long after the people of the Lieyang Gate left, the two real people of the Firmament Palace took Ling Rui and happened to pass by here on the way to Clear Mountain. In order to find a place to temporarily shelter from the rain, Xuanmo Zhenren and Ling Rui unexpectedly discovered this hidden cave by accident, and the three of them immediately walked into the cave to prepare to rest for a while.

As soon as he walked into the cave, Lan Yin Zhenren seemed to immediately feel a powerful and familiar True Qi gushing out from a dim corner in the cave. Lan Yin cautiously approached the corner, and she noticed that the haystack in front of her was placed unnaturally, and it was obvious that these licorice were not grown naturally but deliberately set up. She picked up layer after layer of hay, and Ouyang He, who was still unconscious under the haystack, appeared in front of them.

"This ...... Senior sister, isn't this the girl who performed the 'Sky Dance' in front of the Ghost King's Hall in Xudu before? I heard others say that she seems to be Ouyang He, the owner of Yufeng Mountain Villa who is now wanted in the martial arts, how could she be hidden here? Xuan Mo was really a little surprised when he saw Ouyang He in front of him.

"Her breath was stable, there were no internal injuries, and she was only in a coma because she was acupuncture. Seeing so many skin wounds on her body from being whipped out, I guess some chivalrous warrior rescued her from a certain demon cave and then hid her here temporarily to avoid being pursued. Lan Yin said thoughtfully while checking Ouyang He's pulse.

"So, how is this girl injured now? If she really has a relationship with the palace master, I'm afraid we can't just sit back and ignore her. Xuan Mo asked with some concern on the side.

"Senior brother, just take care of the young man on your back, I naturally know this girl's hurt." After Lan Yin finished diagnosing her pulse, she took out a pill from her bosom and asked Ouyang He to take it, "It seems that we have to bear another traveler on our way to Qingshan." ”

"Hehe, that's going to be a trouble for the senior sister, but seeing that this girl is so thin, it's probably just an effortless errand to let the sturdy senior sister carry her on her back."

"Heh, I haven't said anything about you for a few days, you're poor again, take care of yourself, there's still a long way to go to Qingshan!"

Lan Yin carried Ouyang He on his back like a familiar car, and the two youngest real people among the "Five Saints of the Firmament" embarked on the return journey back to the Firmament Palace with the two young boys and girls who were still a little mysterious to them. On the other side, Ling Rui's father, Ling Wanli, who was rescued from the Yuzhou prison by Qiu Ying, was also hurrying in the direction of Qingshan at the moment, and the reunion between Ling's father and son after ten years might be coming.
