The heat wave is rolling in

Since Lu Ci left, Meng Xiluo, who was seriously injured, rested in place for six or seven days, and her body gradually improved to the point that she was barely able to move. In the end, the one left behind by Lu Ci led her slowly forward, and after a few days, they finally met the people of Qianmin Villa.

The subordinate was reluctant to receive such an errand, but in the end, he reluctantly took care of Meng Xiluo for so many days. Now that he saw the people of Qianmin Villa, he was relieved, and after handing over the weak Meng Xiluo to the people of Qianmin Villa, he left without saying a word, preparing to go to the place where he and Lu Ci agreed to meet.

"Sister, who injured you so badly?" Meng Qi'er looked at the pale and somewhat unsteady sister in front of her, her brows were furrowed, and she was very worried.

Meng Xiluo was supported by two female disciples at this time, with a layer of fine sweat distributed on her forehead, slightly panting. She glanced at the crowd a few times, but didn't seem to find the figure she was looking for, and half-lowered her eyes and said, "Injured by the blue dome, in a miasma forest, it went crazy and has been killed. By the way, what about the little aunt? You've been rescued, but what about her? ”

"Woo woo...... sister, in order to save me, the little aunt died under the attack of the poisonous snake. Woo, those thieves are so despicable and vicious, they actually let poisonous snakes besiege us......" Speaking of their little sister-in-law, all emotions instantly surged into Meng Qi'er's heart, she couldn't control the tears in her eyes anymore, she squatted on the ground and cried uncontrollably, her words were a little vague.

Meng Xiluo raised her eyes, two cold lights flashed in her eyes, and a wave set off in her heart, there was a faint pain and anger, but she behaved calmly, and there was no excessive emotion on her face.

This little aunt has taken good care of Meng Xiluo since she was a child, so Meng Xiluo's feelings for her are far better than those of relatives who are related to her. Today, if Meng Xiluo heard the news of the death of other people in the village, she might not feel anything in her heart at all.

Seeing Meng Qi'er crying sadly, Meng Xiluo's expression was a little more moved, and she bent down and patted Meng Qi'er on the shoulder gently: "People can't be resurrected after death, don't cry." ”

"By the way, this dispute has long been over, and the people of the Lu Mansion don't seem to have returned to the house immediately, do you know why?" Meng Xiluo had already learned from the mouth of the person who escorted her that they were left with this dispute, and the people who flew through the cliff were defeated.

But Meng Xiluo didn't find out why the people from their Lu Mansion didn't leave, and the man didn't even want to talk to her more. As for Lu Ci's words, she didn't believe it. She knew that the people in her village were with people from other sects at that time, so she must know some hidden secrets.

Some of the people present chose to bury their heads in silence, while others showed tangled expressions. If you don't say it, you are disobeying the owner's order, and if you do, I'm afraid that things will be even worse. They all know the temperament of their owners, and they are really embarrassed at the moment.

Meng Qi'er was still crying, but her voice was much quieter, while the others were silent. This strange atmosphere lasted for a long time, and under Meng Xiluo's several questions, someone finally stood up and spoke: "It was the woman surnamed Ling who disappeared, and when we were separated from everyone, we happened to hear the Lord of the Lu Mansion order some of his subordinates to stay and find the trace of the woman." ”

"Was that python ever with her?" After the events of that day, Meng Xiluo was very jealous of the black spirit. In fact, it is not only the black spirit that is reckless, but now she has a shadow on any large beast. She was afraid that she would never provoke these beasts again, and it would be too uncertain and dangerous to keep them around.

The man who had just stood up shook his head: "No." ”

"I see, I said, it's over, what reason do they have to stay. Hmph, that aunt has repeatedly disgraced me, how can I calm down. This is the opportunity, and this time I will take her life. Although Meng Xiluo's face was pale and her spirit was a little sluggish, she could not hide her cruelty in her eyes.

After listening to Meng Xiluo's words, the people present looked at each other, and finally someone cautiously opened his mouth: "Owner, is this inappropriate?" After all, the Lu Mansion is now kind to us, and I am afraid that it will violate the morality of the rivers and lakes to act like this. ”

"What's the matter, the person who saved me was Lu Ci, not her aunt, I have always had clear grievances. Besides, that Dao Gu is from Ling Juguan and has nothing to do with the Lu Mansion. I think Lu Jingxing is just obsessed with her beauty, and the picture is fresh. Who would be involved with a Dao aunt if they have nothing to do, doesn't this make the people of the rivers and lakes laugh? Meng Xiluo said these words indifferently. Although she had never seen Ling Xiao's true face, she was sure that Lu Jingxing was confused by Ling Xiao's appearance and thought that Lu Jingxing was a person who coveted women.

In the end, the group couldn't persuade Meng Xiluo, and as a doorman, he couldn't disobey his owner, so he could only act according to her instructions. Only a few of them followed her on the way back to Qianmin Villa, while the others all stayed behind and began to search for Ling Xiao's traces separately, and then killed. To be on the safe side, and not to miss any places, some people even went back the way they came, heading to that battlefield. They expected that the people who flew through the cliff would not dare to go down again, so even if they appeared near the cliff, the thieves would not dare to come out and make trouble.

The brilliant morning light has passed, and it has been a long time since the four of them gathered in the main hall on the cliff. After the business was over, a few people started talking about other things as before.

Xun Yang sat leisurely with a thick gauze wrapped in his arm, holding a steaming cup of tea in his hand. Hearing Gu Panman inadvertently mention the woman who was snatched by Ke Tianxu, he looked at the tea cup and smiled strangely, and naturally took the words: "Brother Ke has seen the dragon these days, it seems that the charm of that woman is indeed extraordinary, and it can make Brother Ke linger so much." In a short period of time, I heard from people that you are already like glue. ”

"It's really good." Ke Tianxu replied casually and naturally. Even if he and Ling Xiao still have an innocent relationship now, he still wants to create an illusion for others. If it was too embarrassing to let others know that after so much time, he couldn't even conquer a weak woman, and he wouldn't be ridiculed by the people who flew through the cliff? Moreover, if Gu Panman knew that Ling Xiao was still in perfect condition, then Ling Xiao's life would be threatened.

Meng Xiluo noticed that Gu Minluo's expression on the opposite side had changed slightly, so she also opened her mouth to Ke Tianxu: "Master Kemen, I don't know how long you want to hide the beauty?" It's time to bring it to us. ”

"Hidden? Where does this begin? It's just that Yu'er is afraid of life, and he just came here not long ago, and he doesn't want to see people. Ke Tianxu smiled leisurely, lowered his eyes and took a sip of tea, and then looked at Gu Panman.

Gu Panman pretended to be pensive with his chin in his hand, nodded after a while, glanced at Gu Minluo's face imperceptibly, turned his head and smiled at Ke Tianxu: "In a few days it will be the birthday of the Kemen Master, although we are defeated this time, but the birthday will still be passed." Why don't you bring her with you, so that we can open our eyes. ”

"It's fine." Ke Tianxu nodded, his voice was calm, and he inadvertently glanced at Gu Minluo. And Gu Minluo just calmly lowered his eyebrows and drank tea during the whole process, silently. Ke Tianxu had already guessed Gu Panman's intentions, and he also knew her thoughts, but he also had this intention, and wanted to completely eliminate Gu Minluo's thoughts in this way.

Ke Tianxu drank the last bit of tea in the cup, got up and left first. These days, in fact, he doesn't stay with Ling Xiao all the time as he said. During the day, he spent more of his time alone in the study or in the cave, and devoted his mind to practicing or doing business.

It was only at night that Ke Tianxu would fall asleep with Ling Xiao in his arms very strongly. The wound on his back was not healed, and he could not do anything. I have to say that Ling Xiao's methods were too sharp, and the stab was in the right place, which really made him speechless.

Ling Xiao did not give up studying the fundamentals of martial arts because of Ke Tianxu's words that night. She thought, even if those books are not useful for unlocking her acupoints, it is good to increase some knowledge, this is something she had ignored in Lu Mansion before, she started with peerless secrets at first, and other things were just explained verbally by Lu Jingxing.

Of course, it was also because of the tight time at the beginning, when there were frequent murders but no clues could be found, and people were panicked. In order to allow Ling Xiao to enter the door of martial arts as soon as possible, Lu Jingxing picked the key points to explain to her, explaining his own understanding and perception of these basic things, rather than the stiff text description in the book.

Ling Xiao finished reading the last line of words on the bamboo slip in his hand, raised his hand and rubbed his eyes, put down the bamboo slip and got up and walked out, it was rare that there was no maid to follow at this time. She was a little suspicious, the maid would follow her every step on weekdays, but this morning was unusual, I was afraid that nothing good would happen, but she was not worried.

At this time, it was close to midday, the sun was strong outside, the heat wave on the ground was rolling in bursts, and the oncoming wind was hot. Seeing Ling Xiao go out, the two subordinates guarding the door did not stop him, but instead bowed his hand respectfully. Ling Xiao ignored it and walked straight to the edge of the cliff in the distance.

The edge of this cliff is where Ling Xiao often stops these days, the misty cliff is bottomless, and there are some thorns and plants growing on the straight cliffs, and occasionally a few verdant ancient pines hanging upside down. Ling Xiao saw a huge nest on a branch of an ancient pine, but she didn't know what kind of bird it had built.

Her scalp was a little numb from the sun, and Ling Xiao looked into the distance through the beams of brilliant sunlight, the world was far away, the majestic mountains and mountains rose from the ground, and the birds were singing, which made her feel at peace. She felt like she had already figured out a way to escape from here, but the time was not yet ripe, she was waiting, but she didn't think it was too far away.
