Chapter 237: Huo Du
Not long after Ye Tao left, Zhao Yi was about to lie down and rest, the door suddenly opened, listening to the voice, Zhao Yi asked unhurriedly: "Tao, didn't you say that you would come back later?"
The person at the door smiled bitterly when he heard this, with some bitterness in his eyes, and hesitated for a moment before he spoke: "Great Protector, it's me." "
Zhao Yigang's closed eyes slowly opened, and the two rows of long and slightly curled eyelashes fluttered, but he forgot that Bai Meizhu was there just now, Zhao Yi got up and tidied up his clothes, and confirmed that it was all right, then he looked at the door and opened his mouth to call Bai Meizhu.
"It's you, come in. "
"Hmm. "
Bai Meizhu was a little restrained after entering the house, she didn't dare to raise her eyes to look at Zhao Yi, she just stood on the side, Zhao Yi could guess what he was thinking, didn't he even leave here just now?
Seeing that he had been keeping a just right distance, Zhao Yi felt a warm feeling in his heart.
"Thank you for blocking that sword for me. "
Bai Meizhu responded lukewarmly: "Protecting the safety of the Great Protector is what subordinates should do." "
Whether he is worried about her or is doing the duty of a subordinate, Zhao Yi is not easy to speculate, if he does the responsibility of his subordinate, Zhao Yi is sentimental, but if it is because of something else, I am afraid that it will be a senseless heartache.
Zhao Yi immediately understood the reason why he did this, the boundaries should still be drawn clearly, and there should be no less time to care.
"Bai Meizhu, if you have nothing to do, go to the mountains and rivers, I know that you have always wanted to wander among the mountains and rivers, I will not stop you, and you don't have to go to the rescue side. "
Bai Meizhu was silent for a while when she heard this, although she couldn't see his face, but Zhao Yi was sure that Bai Meizhu had turned her head at this moment, and her eyes fell on her face, across the bed curtain.
"But the Great Go, your injuries?"
Hearing some hesitation, Zhao Yi hurriedly said: "My injury is not a big deal, not to mention that those people will not attack me again for the time being." "
Bai Meizhu also suddenly realized that now that Ye Tao was by her side, the people of Jiuzhi did not dare to be too rampant, after all, none of them wanted to ruin the friendship between Jiuzhi and Wuzhi because of a Zhao Yi.
But there is no guarantee that Zhao Yi will not attack Mo Changfeng again, just like today, it is Mo Changfeng that Zhao Yi went to find, when she wants to do such a dangerous thing, she refuses to tell others, where she goes, what to do, what if she gets injured again?
Bai Meizhu was faintly worried, and pretended to ask indifferently: "Great Protector, my subordinates don't understand very well, why did you kill Senior Brother Mo?"
In addition to wanting to know where their contradictions are, so that Zhao Yi can solve this matter, Bai Meizhu is also really curious.
He couldn't figure it out, could it be that the last time Zhao Yi asked him if he knew Bai Meizhu, she already had murderous intent, but what did Zhao Yi have to do with Mo Changfeng? Unless the witch had any close relationship with Zhao Yi, Zhao Yi would think about being angry for her.
Bai Meizhu can only guess like this, but he can't guess which one it is, Jingyuan, Feng Tuo or Bai Shu, but with Bai Meizhu's understanding of Mo Changfeng, Bai Shu is impossible, Feng Tuo likes swordsmanship, and it is very likely to have something to do with it, so they have a common word together.
"As you can imagine, I'm just complaining about others. Zhao Yi confessed, and glanced at Bai Meizhu, a cold gaze came, even through the bed curtain, Bai Meizhu felt a cool air passing by.
"Is it for the sake of the Phoenix Protector?"
Zhao Yi shook his head, "No, I'm embarrassed for you today, did the people from Jiuzhi say anything to you?"
When Bai Meizhu saw Zhao Yi's reaction, only Jingyuan was left, but he didn't think that Jingyuan would actually have a relationship with Mo Changfeng.
"It's nothing more than chewing on the root of the tongue about the subordinates leaving Jiuzhi. Bai Meizhu was joking, but Zhao Yi was distressed when she heard this, and said with concern: "What about Mo Changfeng, does he think so too?"
Bai Meizhu had a smile on her face, but she clearly had no bottom in her heart, "He should understand me, otherwise, the more than ten years of getting along day and night would be meaningless." "
"I'm worried now that Jingyuan will know the truth, just let it be, she will always have to face it. "
Zhao Yi thought that Jing Yuan knew that Mo Changfeng was still alive, and she would definitely not be able to stand it, but at this time she had lost the opportunity to kill Mo Changfeng, if he lived a few more days, Jing Yuan would definitely find him, and Jing Yuan would only have to face it at that time.
Bai Meizhu was overjoyed, and asked in surprise: "Great Protector, do you mean that you don't plan to kill Senior Brother Mo?"
"I won't know how to do it for the time being, not to mention that if you look at me like this, will I still be his opponent?"
Although it was good news that Zhao Yi no longer attacked Mo Changfeng, Bai Meizhu laughed at this time, and he was a little embarrassed, so he had to add one more sentence: "If the Great Protector wants to win, his subordinates think that there is no way." "
Zhao Yi shook his head and sighed, and only said, "You go." "
"Where are you going?" Bai Meizhu looked dazed.
Zhao Yi chuckled lightly and said, "Mountains and rivers, so many magnificent scenes, you can go wherever you want, why ask me." "
Bai Meizhu smiled and said gracefully: "Thank you for being fulfilled." "
Northern border of Danzhou.
"Uh......h Woo......"
The wind is howling, with the unique arrogance and arrogance of the Gobi, there is a desert full of wind and sand from Huodu 100 miles away, and in autumn, the wind in the north is getting more and more wild, carrying huge sand particles and constantly tumbling and twisting, and invading towards Huodu.
This kind of fierce wind howl, the weather in the yellow sand has lasted for nearly a month, and the well in the courtyard of the Huoduli family has been empty for a long time, and it has completely become a dry well.
The dry food stored in the summer has also begun to be taken out at this time, and some people can not go out without going out, such as women, children and children.
And the worst of all is the people who are still walking in the desert at this time, their torn clothes cannot withstand such a strong sandstorm, a few bare skin has been scarred, the cloth shoes of their feet have worn out a hole, and the exposed toes are baked by the blazing sun.
Dry and cracked lips were like dry bark, and it seemed as if there was no place for life in their bodies.
"Hurry, Huo Du is almost here. "
The man at the front, about forty years old, looked a little thief-eyed, he saw the city wall looming in the wind and sand in the distance, and immediately shared his joy with the large army behind him, and also encouraged everyone to continue to move forward, after all, the destination was in front of him.
The troops staggering forward behind them, about twenty people, finally opened their eyelids, which were no longer able to open, only to see that under the eyelids there were eyes with complicated expressions, resolute but could see some greed.
They all clearly remember how they were driven out by those bald monks a month ago, and those monks said that they were aliens, half-human, half-demon aliens, and let them wander at this time, just because God has the virtue of a good life, and those monks were unwilling to kill them, but changed to another cruel method to torture them.
Now, they can only silently move forward in this vast sea of sand, counting their remaining lives.
In a month, two or three days a brother will be roasted alive in the desert.
Yesterday there was another man, who knelt on the sand, and then lay down on his back, gasping for breath, and his face was as white as a piece of paper.
Fortunately, now the remaining twenty or so people have finally been redeemed, and they have seen Huodu, that beautiful place, a place where they can live in peace.
The eyes, which were dull at first, began to become bright, and little by little they regained their luster.
They cheered and ran towards Huodu, but under the city wall, the city wall covered with mud and sand could no longer see the original gray stone color, only golden mud and sand.
"Dingding......
The crisp camel bell came from far and near, and a group of men riding on the camel peak were coming from the other side, it was really early as it was better to come by chance, and this could meet the city lord who took people out to find water and came back.
I saw that the man at the head had a full beard and brown hair, and it seemed as if he had been neglected for several days, and the food tied to the camel was the most tempting thing.
The twenty or so people looked at the living people, and the greed in their eyes was even more exposed, and they were seen by the bearded city lord, but they mistakenly thought that they were looking at the water and food that he led his brothers to bring back.
The bearded man looked up at the scorching sun, and carefully examined their dress, and was scorched by the scorching sun to the point that there was only a desire to survive, and the man sympathized with them, and threw the jug in his hand to them.
Those people were stunned, and the first one took the kettle, shook it and found that there was liquid in it, but when they opened it, it was not the blood they wanted to drink, and the joy on their faces disappeared for many days.
"There's only a little water left, so you're going to drink it. "
The man nodded, and really took a sip, and sure enough, his spirit and spirit had recovered a lot.
"Thank you, thank you!"
Huo Du has not seen strange faces for several years, and now these people have actually passed through this big Gobi and come to Huo Du, I really don't know whether it is a blessing or a curse, and the bearded man can't help but ask curiously: "Who are you?"
"We are ......"
As soon as one of the people left the mouth, he was held by the wrist of the person next to him, and when he looked at him a few more times, he saw an eerie feeling, he glared at the man, and then turned back to the bearded man and said bitterly: "We are exiles. "
"Exile?" the bearded man frowned, and a man behind him said, "Isn't deporting criminals here the same as treating our Xuanyuan clan as filthy rogue?"
The bearded man then said angrily: "Huodu has become a place of exile for criminals, have those people asked me about the Xuanyuan clan?"
The man pretended to be shocked and said, "Could it be that Your Excellency is the Xuanyuan Clan Patriarch Xuanyuan Jing?"
The bearded man nodded, and said in a deep voice, "Exactly." "
"The little old man has eyes and doesn't know Mount Tai, and he also asks the Xuanyuan patriarch to forgive him. The man pretended to kneel down.
Xuanyuan respectfully said: "Those who don't know are not guilty, there is no need for such red tape, you get up." "
"Thank you, Patriarch. "
Seeing that they were all bowing their heads, as if they were afraid of him, the bearded man had no choice but to show a kind smile, "Which group of people have you been exiled to here?"
The man hated and said, "It's the monk of Lanhai Temple." "
"Why?"
"The sin of stealing. The man was resigned.
"Bold!"
