The pale yellow mist slowly flowed down the pattern of the altar, converging in the center of the third layer, enveloping Jingge.

He formed a pale yellow cocoon, and it was difficult to see his true face.

If there is a master who is proficient in occult arts, he can see that the pillar of luck that has broken several pieces on his heavenly spirit cover is being filled and connected by the mist. But it is only a continuation of the previous section, and there are still many cracks in the remaining section.

Seven days.

He Qing sat cross-legged on the sky with her eyes closed, guarding the ground every step of the way.

In the past seven days, Her Royal Highness the princess has secretly come several times, watched from afar, and quietly left.

The night went on as usual, and it was the last night. Since Jing Ge was wrapped in a cocoon of mist, she could no longer sense his situation, and could only see that the Qin Wang Sword inserted at the top of the altar was still slowly transporting mist.

"Your Excellency."

She called out to Zhuge Yin with the technique of sound transmission, opened her eyes and stood up in the void, looking at the top of the altar intently.

Zhuge Yin appeared beside her.

"What?"

Kazuki pointed to the top of the altar and shook her head blankly, she didn't know what was going on.

"King Qin's sword seems to be sliding down?!"

The sword on the Seven Stars Altar was slowly falling, running through the altar layer by layer, disappearing at the top.

What a change this is, the two of them looked solemn and hurried over.

"It's on the third floor." Kazuharu senses its location.

"The third brother hasn't come out yet, so it may be useless to disturb at this time." Zhuge Yin frowned.

He Qing was silent, probing with the keenest sense of God.

"But when the time is calculated, it's time to finish." Zhuge Yin waited for a moment and said, King Qin's sword could not be missed, and he raised his hand to open the door of the third layer of the altar.

He Qing stared at the young man in the room, and the vanished Qin Wang Sword was hanging in front of him. He was whispering, babbling non-stop, as if he was communicating with Qin Wang Jian.

"The ceremony was a success." Zhuge Yin showed a hint of a smile.

"Thank you, big brother, Miss Qing." Jing Ge saw the two of them come in, stood up and bowed slightly and said.

This method really worked, he could feel the changes in his body, the decline had stopped, he was no longer weak, and his spirit had returned to its peak state.

This made him very happy.

"It's just a temporary loan of three years of life for you, and I'm afraid that when you relapse again, you won't be able to recover, so let's do it for yourself." Zhuge Yin shook the feather fan and said, and then he left. The state affairs were busy, everything was done according to the princess's orders, and he did not want to waste time.

Jing Ge nodded, signaling that he knew. Three years is better than half a year, isn't it?

"Mr. Jing, the art of prolonging life is over, please return the Qin Wang Sword to me." He Qing looked at Jing Ge and said, with a cautious look on her face.

In fact, she was shocked in her heart, the person in front of her was completely different from the Jingge she had seen seven days ago.

Seven days ago, he was introverted, ordinary and low-key, looking like a sick and weak man who was powerless.

And now, his eyes are shining, calm and confident. The place of the dantian exudes a blazing aura, like a majestic burning sun, the momentum is vigorous, and the twilight that was on the verge of death has disappeared, leaving only endless vitality.

It's hard to imagine, is this what he was like before he was sick?

None of this is important, the important thing is that he is holding the King of Qin Sword in his hand at this moment. He Qing tried to summon Qin Wangjian back, but the weak connection she had established with it a few days ago was completely ineffective, and it was Qin Wangjian who was very close to him.

He is very strong, and with the King of Qin's sword in his hand, it is inevitable that he will have evil thoughts, and it is not good if this is the case. It is not uncommon for white-eyed wolves to take revenge, and she has to wait for them.

"Miss Qing is too worried." Jing Ge could naturally see her thoughts, and immediately said with a smile, reversing the hilt of the sword and handing over the Qin Wang Sword to her, and at the same time, the edge was exhausted.

He had a gaffe, but he was too excited.

He Qing took the sword of King Qin and thought to himself: Fortunately, there are no crooked thoughts, otherwise the old lady would have to beat you to death.

The face is soothing and at the same time has a hint of redness, which is not very embarrassing for people to see through their minds.

This guy is also witty, but unfortunately he can't escape the fate of dying young. Thinking of this, I can't help but sigh.

"Three years is still too little for you." She said softly, and made up her mind that she would find a way to continue her life within three years, not for him, but for Her Royal Highness the Princess.

"Time is not about how much you have, but how you use it."

Jing Ge looked up at the starry sky and said, in three years, he can do a lot of things.

Compared with the previous serious illness, his physical condition is not as good as day by day, and he is so weak that he can't look like it. Now that he is back to normal, he feels very satisfied.

"You're optimistic." Kazuharu said.

Otherwise, what else can you do, you won't die if you cry? can't avoid things, and I can only accept it calmly and comfort myself.

"By the way, where did Yun'er go?" Jing Ge asked, he went out of the customs, how could Yun'er not come if he was in the palace of the Song Dynasty.

"Uhh

"Huh?" Jing Ge frowned and narrowed her eyes slightly, worried that something had happened to her.

"Miss Yun'er left the Song Palace three days ago." He Qing replied.

"Where did you go?"

Jing Ge was puzzled, if she wasn't in a hurry, she would wait until she got out of the customs.

"Mr. Jing should know that she is the princess of the Song Kingdom, and in my Xiliang territory, there are still former Song relics occupying a city and resisting in vain. The princess was merciful and did not kill them all. There are still remnants of the former Song royal family there, and when Miss Yun'er learned the news, she went there with them. This is what she left for you. ”

He Qing took out a letter and handed it to Jing Ge.

Jing Ge opened the letter and took a look, it turned out that she had secretly found Yun'er when she saw those two people in the past, and told her that the Song Kingdom had not yet perished, and many subjects were resisting. She still had relatives alive over there, so she went there under the persuasion of the two of them.

The two of them found a good time to take advantage of their retreat, so as not to cause accidents, Jing Ge sneered.

"The Song Palace's defense is so tight, how can two former Song relics get in touch with her." Jing Ge said suddenly.

When He Qing heard this, 10,000 flowing cloud horses galloped past in his heart, and this seat is also a dignified Xiliang protector. The previous Great Protectors were all high-ranking existences, and I, as for Her Royal Highness the Princess, took the blame.

"You are guests, and you are free to contact anyone, and we Xiliang will naturally not stop you." He Qing thought for a moment and then replied stubbornly.

"Oh." Jing Ge nodded with a smile.

"Does Miss Sunny know where she is?" He asked again.

"I know that the remnants of the former Song Dynasty are entrenched in the Qingqiu area, more than 300 miles away." He Qing replied. There are the Fourth and Seventh Legions of Xiliang stationed there, and as long as the princess gives an order, it is easy to destroy a group of thieves who have lost the country.

"Miss Lao Fuqing leads the way, I'm going to find her." Jing Ge said, how could she be left alone in a strange place.

He Qing nodded and ordered someone to prepare a horse.

Her mind was reminded of the conversation she had with Her Royal Highness that day.

"Miss Yu Yun and Mr. Jing are very close, inseparable."

"Well, then let her stay in Xiliang." The princess said as she tightened the straps of her cloak.

"Arrested? Still is? He Qing asked, her eyes narrowing slightly.

"Ah, how can you have such vicious thoughts, I am good sisters to her." The princess looked at Kazuharu incredulously.

He Qing was speechless, yes, yes, yes, it was a slave and a slave who was vicious.

"Just let those former Song Dynasty relics take her to Qingqiu to be a princess." She said casually.

"Then the kid is going to find her after he gets out?" Kazuharu asked.

"Take him there, I don't believe that Sister Yun'er will be abducted by him if she becomes a princess." She said with a smile, she knew both of them well.

He Qing was slightly stunned, terrible, Her Royal Highness the princess was scheming. Is this jealousy? I can't see that the two of them are always glued together.

Qingqiu was a small Song state, with tens of thousands of troops and many masters, and the Song people who were unwilling to submit to the rule of Xiliang gathered there.

Jing Ge knew that Xi Liang didn't kill them all because of mercy, it was just a nice rhetoric. Just give them some buffer time, too radical means will bring the strongest resistance. It will make Xiliang pay a heavy price, and it's not worth it.

A princess who has been in exile for many years, returned to the court, and the ministers were loyal and dutifully assisted her, trying to restore the country? It's impossible!

It is most likely that the Son of Heaven will order the princes to use her name to seek power and seize the throne. Where there are people, there are these struggles, where she cannot be safe, she can only be a puppet at the mercy of others.

Not to mention that the two major armies of Xiliang were stationed nearby.

Once the beacon smoke of Xiliang and Qin is ignited, the old Song Dynasty of Qingqiu will definitely be destroyed in a moment. It is impossible for King Liang to leave a huge hidden danger in the hinterland when the two countries are at war.

There was no safety for her to stay there.

The sound of horses' hooves echoed through the woods, and with the faint light of the snow, the two horses passed like lightning, and they were already a hundred miles away in the middle of the night.

Jing Ge slowed down slightly, seeing that it was still a while before sunrise, so there was no need to be too anxious, and it was better to arrive early in the morning.

He Qing silently followed behind him, tightening his wide cloak.

"There are strange beasts in the dense forest ahead, and ordinary pedestrians will detour when they pass by." He Qing looked at the dark forest in front of him and said, and a strange roar came out faintly.

"Will Miss Yi Qing still be afraid of wild beasts?" Jing Ge glanced back at her, but he didn't stop, and went straight to the horse.

"Of course, those furry things, cockroaches and rats and other bugs make my heart tremble when I look at them." Kazuharu replied with a smile, "If you can avoid them, it's naturally better to avoid them as much as possible." ”

"I didn't expect that the great protector of Xiliang, who is the world's best martial arts cultivator, would also be afraid of these things." Jing Ge chuckled, slightly surprised. After all, it's a girl, and she naturally hates these things.

He Qing glanced at him and didn't answer. Just follow behind, tighten the cloak, hide yourself inside, and hide your breath at the same time.

Jing Ge was amazed, she really deserved to be a peerless master, if she hadn't seen her behind her, even if she was only a few meters away, she wouldn't have been able to perceive her existence.

And Jing Ge did not deliberately hide it, and continued to ride forward. He was a little curious, what kind of strange beast was here, and he had a faint guess in his heart, and he wanted to verify it.

The clatter of horses' hooves spread far away in the quiet of the winter night, and sure enough, it caught the attention of some creatures.

"In the southeast direction." Kazuharu reminded him.

Jing Ge looked over, only to see a pair of eyes the size of copper bells appear in the forest on the side of the path, green in color, flashing with a long light, jumping like a ghost fire.

Green glowing eyes again.

Jing Gel looked at the roaring and whining beast, which was huge, about the size of two or three horses. Its forelimbs were slender with sharp claws, and behind its elbows were long barbs, shiny reflections, and obviously extremely sharp, and it stood upright, slapping its chest and roaring, its eyes showing a fierce light.

"What kind of monster is this?" He Qing was slightly shocked, she knew that there were rumors of strange beasts in this forest, and she only saw the true face today, and she was still surprised when she was prepared.

"Demon creatures."

Jing Ge had previously guessed that three hundred years ago, the First Emperor swept the world and drove the demons out of the Great Wall, and it was inevitable that there would be fish that slipped through the net and thrived somewhere.

It seems that the reproduction ability of the species in this forest is not very strong, and there are not many of them, otherwise they would have attracted the attention of Xiliang a long time ago.

Jing Ge looked at it carefully, this creature's form and aggression were so strong, did it evolve naturally?

"It doesn't seem to have a very high IQ, it should be a low-level species." Jing Ge judged.

"Outside the Great Wall, are they all such monsters?" Kazuharu asked, staring at the fierce beast tightly.

Jing Ge shook his head, his brows furrowed slightly, "I don't know, a few days ago, the Northwest Army captured one, which is different from it, but has many similar characteristics. ”

"I thought there were no traces of demons within the Great Wall, and it seems that after I go back, I will have to order someone to search the whole territory thoroughly." He Qing said, maybe there are remnants of demons in other places.

"It's better to be caught alive." Jing Ge said lightly.

"Huh?"

She was a little puzzled, what to do alive?

"Maybe one day Xiliang broke through the Yanmen Pass, and the northern demons crossed the Great Wall again? However, Sergeant Xiliang suddenly faced a large number of such monsters, and he had no experience in dealing with them, so he was afraid that he would not be able to escape the fate of rout. You might as well search for some demons now, study their weaknesses, and find a way to fight them. Jing Ge explained.

"Mr. is far-sighted, precautionary, broad-minded, and admirable." She nodded heartily, deeply agreeing, ashamed of herself.

"In this way, Mr. Jing also thinks that one day Xiliang will break through the Yanmen Pass?" She asked with a smile, noticing Jing Ge's previous words.

"Whether you can break the Yanmen Pass or not, who is the main person in the land of China, I actually don't care much. As long as the world is at peace, and the people I love are not disturbed. Jing Ge replied softly.

The two of them talked, treating the monster as if it were nothing. Perhaps sensing the despisy of dignity by the lowly humans, it became more furious, angry, roaring, and pounced on it with great speed.

Although the body is large, it is as flexible as a rabbit, and many trees are knocked down during the rampage, and the ground shakes the mountains, and the momentum is terrifying.

Jing Ge struck, and he jumped up from his horse, appearing in the air like a ghost, and stepped down on its huge head, even if the monster was nimble and agile, it could not avoid this kick.

With a muffled bang, accompanied by a howl, its three- or four-meter-tall body shook a few times, and slowly pressed against the bushes and fell.

Kazuharu watched him intently, wanting to know how deeply he was hidden and how powerful he was.

She was curious, and at the moment when Jing Ge came out, she felt a palpitating breath, as vast and majestic as the waves of the angry sea. Now it was calm and unsearchable.

However, a magical beast with brute force could not pose any threat to Jing Ge at all. He kicked it to death with the simplest moves, and Kazuharu couldn't see the depth of him.

"Let's go."

Jing Ge fell back on the horse, clamped his legs, and galloped past.

Under the guidance of Kazuha, the two arrived at Qingqiu in the early morning.

As the name suggests, the green hills are full of hills, and there are many mountains that are not tall. The city is built on the mountain, and the scenery is good, which is also thanks to this

When the Xiliang army attacked, they could flee into the mountains to hide, and the cavalry could not gallop, so they preserved a lot of strength.

Xiliang had no choice but to take them for a while, so he had to still occupy this area by them for a long time, and then later, he simply stopped attacking. However, an elite army is still stationed here on standby.

"Can they identify you?" Jing Ge asked.

"What about recognizing?" He Qing replied proudly, the world is so big, she can't go anywhere.

Jing Ge was dumbfounded, he wasn't worried about Heqing's safety, I was afraid there was no one in the world who could hurt her. It's just that she is the great protector of Xiliang, and it is not very convenient to enter the former Song stronghold.

"I'll go in by myself." Jing Ge said.

He Qing nodded, she was not Jing Ge's entourage, so there was no need to follow up, but she got along with him very well along the way, and it didn't hurt to go in with him.

She turned around and headed for the Seventh Legion.

The winter is rising, the sun is shining, riding the dust, galloping into the territory of Qingqiu.
