At the moment when Liu Xuan was about to pull out the double-strand sword, the time of the entire Wanjiang Inn seemed to stand still.

The swaying window was frozen in the last moment.

The rays of starlight that came through were also frozen in the final shape.

For a while, in the entire space, only Liu Xuan was still conscious, and only the mysterious person in the darkness could still move.

The mysterious man thought for a moment and said, "For his sake, let him say a few last words!"

Then, Liu Xuan was able to speak, but the time of Wanjiang Inn had fallen into a certain state, and no matter how much he shouted, Guan Fei and Zhang Yi couldn't hear it.

Moreover, he also knew that the mysterious person in the darkness came from the "outside", and the one who helped the mysterious person in the darkness turned out to be the "sky" high above?

From the initial nervousness, to the fear, to the almost collapse of the mentality, Liu Xuan finally calmed down, he raised his quiet face, looked at the vague figure in the dark, and asked such a question: "You and Ji Yu are both from outside, right?"

The vague figure in the darkness was stunned, and laughed: "I can't imagine that there are a few talents in this small world, it's a pity, hurry up and say your last words, your time is running out." ”

Liu Xuan's face was pale, his face was covered with cold sweat, and he was sweating, but his expression was still very calm, and he said, "You and General Ji Yu, who is behind the deeper?"

The vague figure in the darkness was silent for a moment, obviously not expecting him to ask such a question.

So he said: "Nine Emperor Prince Ji Yu, I can't see through, how can I answer you?"

"Oh," Liu Xuan suddenly realized, and said, "It turns out that Ji Yu is a prince on your side." ”

The vague figure in the darkness said in a cold voice: "Okay, give you time to say your last words, just ask some irrelevant questions, it's time!"

When the "word" fell, Liu Xuan only felt that the already vague figure in the darkness was even more blurred, but in just an instant, a fatal hand struck him in the heart.

At this moment, he drew his male and female swords, and saw a pair of cloudy, old, and shocked eyes in the darkness.

In the early morning of the next day, when the first rays of sunlight scattered into the Wanjiang Inn, the three brothers Liu, Guan and Zhang packed their luggage and walked out of the Wanjiang Inn side by side.

Chinese New Year's Eve is approaching, no matter how dilapidated Wanjiang Town is, there is still a bit of festive taste.

Guan Fei and Zhang Yi glanced at each other, patted Liu Xuan's shoulder, and asked, "Big brother, there seems to have been some movement in your house last night, are you okay?"

Liu Xuan, who took out the horses from the stable, shook his head and said with a gentle smile: "There's no problem, a mouse suddenly ran out of my room last night, and I hit the mouse!"

Guan Fei and Zhang Yi glanced at each other again when they heard this, and said with a smile: "If the eldest brother encounters such a short-eyed mouse in the future, if he dares to disturb the eldest brother Qingning, just leave it to the two of us." ”

Liu Xuan nodded, turned over on his horse, and said with a smile: "Wait a minute, if you see Tao Lao, you don't have a lot to say." ”

As usual, Guan Fei and Zhang Yi nodded, and then turned over and went away with Liu Xuan.

None of them saw the sly smile that inadvertently flashed at the corner of Liu Xuan's mouth.

Wen Zhuo naturally also knew about Yuan Chu and Baima Gongsun, and before he had time to feel what kind of benefits Yuan Chu gave Ji Yu, Ji Yu had already captured the surrounding Luoyang with the support of Yuan's army.

For a time, Ji Yu, who occupied Yongzhou South and Sizhou Luoyang, actually formed an encirclement of Wen Zhuo's forces, which made Wen Zhuo even more headache and speechless.

Wen Zhuo had to negotiate with Ji Yu again, trying to persuade Ji Yu to give up Luoyang, Sizhou.

However, Wen Zhuo almost took out his Xiliangzhou to change, but still did not negotiate a satisfactory result with Ji Yu, so he broke up a little unhappily.

And Wen Zhuo, the national thief who coerced the Son of Heaven to order the princes, is still the number one enemy of the world's heroes and the princes of the Ten Roads.

If you kill Wen Zhuo, you can get a great achievement, and with this great achievement, you will naturally have countless opportunities to rise to the top.

Until, on the night of Chinese New Year's Eve, a Later Han minister named Wang Yin came to Luoyang City.

Luoyang City, after the people of Luoyang ushered in a new master again, they were very glad to settle down when they saw that they were not treated harshly.

Ji Yu, who doesn't have much joy for the Western Chu Palace, will not have any thoughts about the Later Han Palace now.

So, naturally, he lived in the renovated Protectorate Mansion.

Of course, this Protectorate Mansion was not rebuilt when he occupied Luoyang, but when Yuan Chu was the leader of the Allied Forces and captured Luoyang, the Allied Army rebuilt it with the entire Luoyang City.

At this time, in the main hall of the Protector's Mansion, Ji Yu, who was dressed in Xuanyi, stood in the main hall with his hands in his hands, and in front of him was the young monk and the little beggar Zhu Chongjiu.

The young monk pulled the little beggar Zhu Chongjiu to kneel in front of Ji Yu, his head bowed, and in a pair of clear and bright eyes, in addition to gratitude, there were many more complex emotions.

Ji Yu frowned and said, "In the barracks, there have never been women, if I want to set this precedent for you, it's not good." ”

The young monk's eyes rolled, and he said a little nervously: "The grass people have a word, I don't know if I should say it or not?"

Ji Yu's eyes drooped slightly, and he said, "Frankly admit that he is not guilty!"

When the young monk heard this, he took a deep breath, as if he had made a great decision in his life, and said, "The general can bring Lingyue girl with him, why can't my sister join the army with me?"

"Even if my sister is weak and can't kill a few enemies, she can still help cook in the barracks, cook a few delicious meals, and give them to the soldiers. However, it may not be very tasty, after all, it is a big pot of rice. ”

After speaking, he looked at Ji Yu with a firm gaze, as if a person had picked up enough courage and was ready to face death.

The little beggar looked at his brother like this, and was inexplicably a little nervous.

Ji Yu didn't get angry, his face was surprisingly calm, like a mountain spring, flowing slowly, extremely peaceful.

He asked such a question: "I took Lingyue with me, from beginning to end, I didn't put Lingyue in danger, you let your sister go to the barracks with you, there is only life and death on the battlefield, can you protect her?"

The young monk was stunned, and his heart was inexplicably moved, he raised his head, looked directly at the extremely beautiful face, and the eyes as deep and wide as the sea, and said categorically: "No matter what, I can protect my sister well." ”

It was not because he was too inflated and boasted of Haikou, but he was confident, and then he thought of the sudden breakthrough of the previous Buddhist scripture, Ji Yu knew that the young monk's hole card was able to protect the little beggar Zhu Chongjiu.

So, Ji Yu nodded in agreement, he stepped up to the young monk's side, patted him on the shoulder three times, and said, "Work hard in cultivation, take good care of your sister!"

The young monk nodded, his eyes shining like stars, and said, "Thank you, General." ”

At this moment, an old man in official uniform appeared in the main hall like a candle in the wind, leaving behind a series of phantoms, as if it was not a person moving quickly, but a shadow.

The corners of Ji Yu's lips rose slightly, in this spiritual secret realm, it is really Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon!
