CHAPTER XVI
The three of them randomly chose a braised noodle restaurant with few customers, ordered a few braised dishes to drink, asked for a jar of sake, and ate for almost an hour, when the checkout, Xiao Jiansheng handed over one or two pieces of silver, but somehow, the shopkeeper seemed to want to accept it but did not dare to accept it, resulting in an extremely ugly face.
This made Xiao Jiansheng feel more and more strange.
Under Xiao Jiansheng's questioning, the shopkeeper told the truth, it turned out that someone had already settled the account, but he didn't say who settled it, only said that he didn't dare to say more about the matter of losing his head.
In desperation, Xiao Jiansheng didn't ask any more questions, he ate and drank for nothing, but he didn't seem to appreciate it, as for the reason, it was naturally that they had just landed on the shore, and they were seen by others, which was tantamount to the enemy and the enemy, and the indescribable awkwardness in his heart.
Who is the person who settles the bill, Xiao Jiansheng is anxious after all, and he can't think of who this person is, no wonder he has been feeling a little depressed since he landed on the shore, it turns out that he was really followed, and the strange thing is that he didn't see through this breath.
Xiao Jiansheng was puzzled, the three of them came out of the lo noodle restaurant, and just as he was about to get into the carriage, he suddenly found a paper scroll inserted in an arrow hole that had not been filled, and it was unfolded with a few lines of hasty words: Don't go back to Fengtian, Wuji Palace is also dangerous, it's really not good, my sister still lacks a warm bed, I am willing to take you in, you don't want me to ask my sister how to find out your identity, I believe you are not stupid.
Xiao Jiansheng smiled faintly, he had already come to his senses, quickly took off the silver mask on his face, and when he was about to throw it away, he suddenly realized that this mask was made of silver, and then grabbed it, and the mask completely turned into a piece of silver.
He had vaguely guessed who this person was, Sadako Miyang.
As for how Weiyang Sadako quickly recognized his identity, it is naturally the mask of Nanguo An Gongzi, I am afraid that now everyone in the world knows that An Gongzi was killed by him, so there is no silver three hundred taels here.
Xiao Jiansheng laughed to himself and handed the letter to Meng Lingxiao.
Meng Lingxiao glanced at the handwriting that was difficult to distinguish between male and female, but according to the meaning of the words, he could guess that the other party must be a woman, and he was very familiar with Xiao Jiansheng, Meng Lingxiao returned the paper to Xiao Jiansheng, and said with a smile: "This is a good thing, but you can think about it, don't waste some of the girl's heart." ”
Xiao Jiansheng glared at his master and said with a smile: "I want to consider you, a big family, a manor, countless industries, and the person in charge of taking care of the manor is a short old man, but it is really attractive." ”
Meng Lingxiao smiled with interest: "She is short and attractive, could it be her?"
Xiao Jiansheng nodded and said, "They all call her a ghost wife, does the master know this person?"
Meng Lingxiao chuckled and said, "That old woman was even crazier than when she was crazy before she was crazy, how can she not know her?"
At this moment, Zhao Lingxue took the paper in Xiao Jiansheng's hand, glanced at it a few times, and said coldly: "It's her again, looking for death." ”
Xiao Jiansheng thought that Zhao Lingxue was talking about Weiyang Sadako, and hurriedly explained: "Miss Sadako's timely reminder is also a good intention, so you don't need to be treated like this, right?"
Zhao Lingxue snorted coldly and got back into the carriage, then poked her head out to look at Xiao Jiansheng and said, "The Lord is talking about you, you'd better not mess with flowers and grass now, otherwise you will bear the consequences." ”
Xiao Jiansheng subconsciously shrank his neck and jumped into the ox cart, but he didn't dare to squeeze the carriage with Zhao Lingxue again.
Meng Lingxiao didn't bother to listen to the two bickering, so he simply covered a thick quilt and half-snuggled outside the carriage and began to doze off leisurely, Xiao Jiansheng drove the ox cart to the west.
According to his plan, the route of this trip was naturally not to the Fengtian Dynasty, but to the Cangding Kingdom, and then turn to the vicinity of Chaotian Mountain, and then find the road that he had walked with his senior sister, and then separate from his master, this idea was also agreed by his master.
Just a day later, Zhao Lingxue suddenly proposed to change the route, she insisted on going north to Chaotian Mountain, obviously Zhao Lingxue was not ready to go with Meng Lingxiao again, Meng Lingxiao could naturally see it, in fact, he had already wanted to do so.
At noon, the three went their separate ways.
Meng Lingxiao drove back to Wuji Palace, Xiao Jiansheng and Zhao Lingxue walked to Chaotian Mountain, and when parting, Meng Lingxiao said earnestly: "Remember, boy, you should weigh which is more important in everything, but you must remember one thing, it is better to violate the rules of heaven than to be angry." ”
Xiao Jiansheng understood Shigong's worries, he nodded heavily, and said, "I will be relieved when Shigong returns to Wuji Palace." ”
Meng Lingxiao sighed: "Sometimes the tree wants to be quiet and the wind doesn't stop, there are always people who like to toss themselves to death before they are willing." ”
Xiao Jiansheng also felt the same way, but he didn't have the relieved tone of Shigong, after all, he was still inferior in strength, and he had to be cautious in everything.
Xiao Jiansheng saw Shi Gong go away, he only brought a spear with him, and the black stone chessboard was also handed over to Shi Gong to take back to Wuji Palace for collection.
Not long after, Xiao Jiansheng and Zhao Lingxue appeared by the river at the foot of Chaotian Mountain, Zhao Lingxue stopped here, looked at the direction of Chaotian Mountain from a distance, and said with a sneer: "The deity wants you to destroy the stone statue with your own hands." ”
Xiao Jiansheng shook his head and said, "If you want to cut off the connection between us, in fact, the most direct way is to kill me, why do you need to do more." ”
"Don't think the deity doesn't dare. ”
"You really don't dare, don't you believe it?"
Zhao Lingxue's face gradually turned cold, and the soft sword was like a poisonous snake about to spit out a letter, the sword did not leave her fingers, and the surrounding heaven and earth vitality began to solidify, and above the gray clouds above her head, there was gradually a muffled and sullen thunder came, Xiao Jiansheng couldn't perceive what realm Zhao Lingxue was now, but according to the caused heaven and earth abnormal kinetic energy, he vaguely guessed that it should also be the strength above the Seven Realms, and it was a little unrealistic to kill him in this realm, and he guessed that she would definitely not be able to do it, although the killing intent blooming on her body was already very Ling Ran.
Therefore, Xiao Jiansheng looked at Zhao Lingxue and said with a smile: "It is said that a one-day husband and wife are a hundred days, and a hundred-day husband and wife are like the depth of the sea, although you and I are husband and wife, but we have already had a skin-to-skin relationship, I don't care if you are the spirit master or Zhao Lingxue, but after all, you were born to the Zhao family, these things should be clearer than me." ”
Zhao Lingxue sneered: "Forcing the Lord to make a move won't do you any good, it's best to live one more day." ”
Zhao Lingxue restrained the killing intent on her body and walked along the stone bridge.
Xiao Jiansheng followed closely behind her and said, "Are you going to cut off our contact and do it to me again?"
Zhao Lingxue nodded as she walked.
Xiao Jiansheng suddenly smiled very happily, and then said: "The affairs of the world, only love words are the most difficult to cut, I don't know how you will cut off the grievances between us, why don't you talk about it?"
Zhao Lingxue paused slightly, and said: "Just wait and see, first go up the mountain to see the master, and then say, the lord of the deity has something unclear, and I want to ask for advice in person." ”
After a while, the two came to the foot of the mountain, and Xiao Jiansheng suddenly remembered one thing, when the grand meeting of Chaotian Mountain, someone wanted his life, although he didn't want to hold a grudge
, but when I think of this, I feel a little unhappy.
At this moment, the wheel of Chaotian Mountain is covered in a heavy snow, even the winding path to the top of the mountain is white, the two walk side by side on the mountain road, and take a short rest in a pavilion, at this moment, six people came to the mountain, looking at the costume should be a Taoist boy or something, a few people walked straight to the pavilion, and then came to Xiao Jiansheng's side, performed Taoist etiquette, one of the Taoist children said very politely: "The two donors forgive me, now the Lord has a law, one should not see the guests, and no idle people are allowed to climb the mountain." ”
Xiao Jiansheng pointed at Zhao Lingxue, who was covered with a veil, got up and said with a smile: "My master and I came from afar, just asking for a few sticks of incense, and we won't bother for a long time." ”
The Taoist boy smiled apologetically: "That's not good, we can only follow the Lord's law, we have no right to change, and I hope that the two donors will come and go, they are really sincere, and it is not too late when the mountain snow melts." ”
At this moment, Zhao Lingxue suddenly said: "Let you watch the Lord come out to see me, there is only one stick of incense time, and you will regret it later." ”
The six Dao boys were already a little shivering when they were frozen, and when they heard this, they raised their eyebrows, glared at the veiled woman, and sneered: "I'm afraid that the donor's words are the opposite, it should be me waiting for you to give you a stick of incense to open the mountain gate, otherwise ......"
It's a pity that the Dao boy hasn't yet expressed the rest of his words, and a bloody crack has already cracked in his neck, and after just three breaths, the blood crack suddenly opens like a bloody mouth, and the blood spurts out, and the white stone steps are bright red.
Several other sword companions were killed on the spot, and they didn't even think about the consequences for a while, and in addition to being furious, their waists believed that the death of their companions was caused by the veiled woman, and they all pulled out the swords on their waists and stabbed Zhao Lingxue with three enemies.
Zhao Lingxue didn't move, just sneered, and the three of them fell to the ground and died in an instant, all with a sword in their necks.
Six people blinked and four died, and the remaining two were either shocked, and there was no more arrogant posture just now, leaving a sentence, no one dared to disturb the master when he saw the distinguished guests, and the two of them would wait and see if they didn't open their eyes.
The two of them almost flew towards the top of the mountain, and disappeared in an instant.
Xiao Jiansheng frowned, looked at Zhao Lingxue in surprise, the sudden change made him feel strange, the ruthlessness of the shot made him feel frightened, and he couldn't help but think of Zhao Lingxue who was afraid of pain and blood, she used to be so gentle and innocent, it seemed to be an overnight thing, she completely changed, both strange and uneasy to him.
At this moment, Zhao Lingxue said, "They shouldn't dare to anger the Lord of the Deity, including you. ”
Xiao Jiansheng sighed and said, "No matter who you are, it is never a good thing to kill innocents indiscriminately, why do you need to make enemies on all sides? This will only make the world hate you more, and there is no place for you in the world." ”
Zhao Lingxue said calmly: "The Lord of the Deity does not need enemies, he only needs to surrender, in other words, is it wrong for the Lord of the Deity to take back what belongs to him? You don't know what happened back then, the land of the world, there is no place for the Lord of the Deity, there are hunting and killing everywhere, there are reward orders everywhere, even the three-year-old children keep saying that they have killed the Spirit Lord and received a reward of 10,000 taels of silver, could it be that the Lord of the Deity is at fault? What is the mistake?"
Xiao Jiansheng originally seemed to have a tiger hidden in his heart, about to be released from the cage, but after listening to Zhao Lingxue's words, he was speechless to refute again.
Just when the two were at a stalemate in the pavilion, an old man on the top of the mountain was holding a bamboo pole in his hand and looked in the direction of the mountain with a sneer.
