Chapter 18: Civil Strife in the Shrine

"What? Xiaoxue was taken captive, what is called Xiaoxue being captive? Lu Qingyu pressed his palm heavily on several cases, which really startled the butterfly who was telling him about the situation.

"At the same time, ...... were stolen Fu Xiqin ...... "Butterflies have red cheeks because of nervousness. "I can get that kind of thing back, I'm talking about Xiaoxue now." Lu Qingyu's reaction to the theft of Fu Xiqin was not as strong as just now. It seems that Xiaoxue is the most important! Butterfly was very unhappy in her heart, and she hoped that Lu Qingyu would punish her for the theft of Fu Xiqin, because she was indeed the only one who had a weight left in the palace that night. It's a pity that Lu Qingyu didn't, Lu Qingyu's emotions seemed to be only affected by Xiaoxue, and he never showed any feelings to others.

"You did it on purpose!" Lu Qingyu looked at the butterfly scrutinically, but it made the butterfly's heartbeat inexplicably speed up a lot. "When no one can escape the tracking of your butterfly today, you won't be unable to catch up, but you never thought of chasing, you don't want Xiaoxue to stay in the shrine." Butterfly's initial expression was surprised, but she immediately turned relieved, after all, the only one in this palace who dared to speak bluntly to Lu Qingyu except for Fan Jia was the butterfly: "You don't have to say the reason if you know the reason, it's not interesting to say a lot of things." Butterfly has completely forgotten the subordinate identity between her and Lu Qingyu, and just wants to find a balanced fulcrum in her heart.

"Then do you know what Xiaoxue means to me?" Lu Qingyu's powerful fingers made a red mark on Butterfly's fair face, "She is everything to me." It's the only reason why I, Lu Qingyu, will eventually quit the rivers and lakes. Tears gradually welled up in the butterfly's eyes: Isn't it too ironic that the world that they fought bloodily and fought hard to the death, which anyone regarded as Lu Qingyu would never give up no matter what, would be decided by a little girl?

Butterfly said with difficulty: "The other party is Yuwen Tuo, and if I catch up, I will just send him to death,...... You just want me to die? ”

Lu Qingyu's hand gradually let go, turned to a fist, and finally spit out three words: "Yuwen Tuo." ”

"Ha......" The butterfly suddenly burst out laughing, which in turn startled Lu Qingyu. After all, butterflies have always been associated with words such as calm, elegant, and calm, and it was the first time Lu Qingyu had seen such a gaffe. The more the butterfly laughed, the more painful it became, it turned out that she gave up the life of being as comfortable as the wind to live this life of licking blood from the knife all day long in order to be a reason why she didn't even know the result, but when she learned the result, she found that she had already become accustomed to the Roselle Palace, and when she wanted to leave, she didn't know where she should go. Isn't it already the most ironic joke in the world that a free butterfly can lose its way?

Even in the face of such a butterfly, Lu Qingyu was still not moved in the slightest, and the coldness on his face was still comparable to the cold of winter. "I just promised you that if you have the ability, you can enter the Luoshen Palace, and I didn't promise anything else." Lu Qingyu still said something colder than the expression on her face.

At this time, Butterfly suddenly understood that she was used to admiring Lu Qingyu, and the reason why Luo Shen Palace kept her footsteps was entirely because there was a person she admired and admired. Her existence exists because of his existence, and that's all. It's not so much that Luoshen Palace made her lose her way, but that Lu Qingyu let her find her direction and recognize this fact, and her heart will no longer be so painful: since she can't get it, all she can do is guard.

At this time, a subordinate came to report: "Lord, the three lords have returned." ”

Lu Qingyu said with a tight expression: "There were four when I went out, why did I come back three?" ”

The next person didn't dare to say it, and Lu Qingyu had to go to the main hall in person.

Yu Dongqiu did not come back, except for Zhuo Yingqiao, Ye Qiuchi and Fan Jia were seriously injured.

Lu Qingyu suddenly felt that something was wrong in her heart, and hurriedly asked, "After I left, what happened?" "The strange thing is that it is Zhuo Yingqiao, who has always been silent, who has always been silent, to tell all the experiences in the princess's mansion, Ye Qiuchi and Fan Jia's expressions are very stiff and sluggish, and their eyes are also cloudy, and they neither kneel nor salute when they see Lu Qingyu.

It turned out that the ambush under the big banyan tree was Liao Xiangjun, the head of the Tianshan Sword Sect. This shrewd and strong woman saw the four masters of the Luo Shen Palace, and without saying a word, she stabbed without saying a word, first used the sword to control the qi, and sealed Zhuo Yingqiao's meridians at a distance of six or seven feet, Zhuo Yingqiao couldn't move, and naturally couldn't cast spells secretly. Then the woman cut Fan Jia's move "Caiyun Chasing the Moon" with a move "Flowing Wind Whirlwind Slash", and broke Fan Jia's sword in the second move alone, and the broken half of the sword head was inserted into the left of Fan Jia's atrium. Ye Qiuchi was about to stroke the qin, but found that Liao Xiangjun's sword had reached under the piano board, in order to prevent his fingers from being cut off, Ye Qiuchi had to abandon the qin and retreat, but before her legs could play, the ruthless and accurate sword cut a huge hole on her right shoulder. However, Yu Dongqiu's speed can keep up with this woman's swordsmanship, and although he suffered a little from Han Feng's stabbing with his flower fingers, he still persevered for a while. It's a pity that Yu Dongqiu's body is agile and his moves are flexible, but after all, he is still young, and his internal strength is naturally far inferior to Liao Xiangjun's accumulation of more than 40 years. But Liao Xiangjun's goal is only Yu Dongqiu alone, and he will capture him after he succeeds.

"What is this woman doing in the Central Plains? What are you doing with that dude? Is it difficult to fall in love with that kid who is handsome? Lu Qingyu said casually, as if he didn't care about Yu Dongqiu's life or death at all, but his fists were clearly clenched tighter and tighter.

"Don't you know what to do now?" A delicate and tactful but absolutely familiar voice came from the door of the hall, and Lu Qingyu was a little happy when he heard this voice.

Zihua Yu walked in from the temple gate with a smile in her heart, and she was like a frightening leap in her steps, coming slowly, and a smile was enough to turn everyone upside down. This made all the bloody men in the palace hesitate when they drew their swords and faced each other.

"Idle people, etc., trespassing on the shrine, the crime should be put to death." Lu Qingyu ordered his subordinates lightly.

Zihua glanced at everyone with a smile, but no one made a move at her.

"Are you all reversed?" Lu Qingyu feigned anger.

"Is the Lord hesitating to find Xiaoxue or save Yu Dongqiu first?" Zihua completely ignored everyone and just smiled at Lu Qingyu.

Lu Qingyu was indeed hit by what he said, and he was speechless for a while. Zihua continued: "Alasβ€”β€”, Luo Shen Palace has always been above all the factions of the martial arts, so it is naturally condescending and inviolable, but domineering is also not good about domineering, at least the news always comes later!" ”

Lu Qingyu said: "What do you mean by this?" ”

Zihua's boos were even louder: "Alasβ€”β€”, the patriarch of the Hashku south of the Tianshan Mountains used the Tongtian Treasure Mirror that was only recently opened as a dowry to recruit a virtuous son-in-law, and now the people in the rivers and lakes are in a commotion, and they have rushed to the Tianshan Mountains to attend the meeting, and the imperial court has also sent a prince to avoid chaos in order to form a good alliance with Fanbang, don't you even know at all?" Even if you don't know this, Princess Delissa of the tribes in the capital cities of the Western Regions should have heard of it, right? ”

Lu Qingyu didn't pay attention to the princess or anything like that, and just asked eagerly, "Is that the Kunlun Mirror?" ”

Zihua said with a smile: "Is it only known if the Venerable Lord personally ran away?" Then he asked tentatively: "But right now, it makes your problem more difficult, if you go to Tianshan, you can rescue Yu Dongqiu and go to the Heroes Meeting, but will it be more important to find Xiaoxue Maiden?" ”

Lu Qingyu fell silent again, and Zihua also waited patiently for his silence.

Just when Lu Qingyu was thinking the most, a cold sword poked out from his right side, it was Fan Jia's sword, not only Lu Qingyu didn't expect it, but even Zihua didn't expect it. Lu Qingyu only had time to take a small step back, but Fan Jia's sword still left a bloody wound in his chest, Lu Qingyu had not been injured for a long time, after such a blow, it really made him a little painful, but far greater than this pain came from his surprise, he would never have thought that Fan Jia would betray him, he had thought that everyone in the world had betrayed him, Fan Jia would never betray him, and he hated betrayal the most. In addition to the pain, he also provoked the murderous nature that seemed to be born in his heart, and he would never let the betrayer stay in this world.

But before Lu Qingyu's Xiangfei sword came out of his sleeve, he felt that there was a sharp weapon coming at him behind him, accompanied by the nine-fold Sanskrit sound that the Fanle Fairy was accustomed to, Lu Qingyu didn't need to look back to know that there was a nine-peer blade behind him scraping towards him. He hurriedly opened the Zihua beside him with one palm, and danced a string of sword flowers with his backhand to divide the light blade, and at the same time, the butterfly also shouted: "You are crazy!" Then one hundred and eight hidden weapons broke out and blocked the blade of light. When Lu Qingyu stopped, he was also thinking that because Ye Qiuchi was his subordinate, he had never thought about how to break her move, if it wasn't for the butterfly's timely attack just now, he would almost be scraped all over his body by the next light blade.

Ye Qiuchi turned to play a song "Tianchi Xing Rhyme", and there was an evil murderous aura in the rhythm of pure heart and few desires, and Fan Jia danced a set of flowing flower swordsmanship. The piano is a sword song, and the sword is a piano movement, which just combines the most perfect match in the world, and at the same time, it is also brewing the most impeccable offensive against Lu Qingyu. Lu Qingyu laughed loudly, and showed the Xiangfei sword and said, "Come on!" I really didn't try your martial arts properly when I subdued you. ”

The first move of the Phantom Ying swordsmanship, "Flying Snow", the sword qi swept unscrupulously on the tip of the sword, and there seemed to be real snow flakes flying between the waves and the horizontal streams, and the other subordinates of the Luo Shen Palace were afraid that they would not be able to dodge, and they scattered and fled, while Ye Qiuchi and Fan Jia did not retreat, but advanced, blocking the sword qi from both sides, and went up, even if the clothes on their bodies were shredded and fell out of the broken flesh and blood, they were unconscious, and they still got up and hit Lu Qingyu's sword edge. Lu Qingyu felt that something was wrong and hurriedly withdrew his hand, but who knew that only this time, he asked Fan Jia to leave a cut on his arm.

At that moment, everyone in the Roselle Palace saw the group of leaders fighting within it, and they didn't know what to do, so they could only watch with their eyes. Although the butterfly had the heart to make a move, it was really powerless, but I was afraid that it would help Lu Qingyu instead, so I had to watch. Lu Qingyu was also really distressed, he saw that the two of them were different, he was afraid that someone had controlled his mind, he would kill the two of them if he made a move, and if he didn't make a move, he would be injured constantly, thinking that he had really put a hard fight on the ill-intentioned person this time, and in addition to resentment, his eyes turned to Zhuo Yingqiao, who had not moved, and blamed himself for thinking of this most suspicious object for a long time, Zhuo Yingqiao could have understood Xuanmen spells, passed witch Gu pharmacology, and controlled Ye Fan and the two people who were defenseless against him It was not difficult, besides, Why after returning from the princess's mansion, why did the expressions of the two of them be demented, only Zhuo Yingqiao was unusually sober, this is an obvious fact. Caring is chaotic, it seems that the matter of Xiaoxue and Yu Dongqiu still lowers his usual judgment.

Zhuo Yingqiao seemed to see his suspicion of himself from Lu Qingyu's eyes, but he did not avoid it or have a false heart, as if he was still trying to think about who the real murderer was as a victim.

At this time, Li Hate and Zhang Xiaoxia withdrew to block the surging attack of Ye Fan and the others, Lu Qingyu pulled away and stabbed Zhuo Yingqiao with a fierce sword with the momentum of flying eagle predation, but Zhuo Yingqiao not only did not hide, let alone look at him, as if he was still seriously thinking about who was the murderer.

"Whew-" The moment the sword stabbed Zhuo Yingqiao's throat, it was blocked by another sword, there were not many people in this world who could stop Lu Qingyu's sword, but this sword was firmly blocked. Lu Qingyu flew away, just wanting to see who else in the Luoshen Palace had such a ability.

The person who came out of the sword is a little person who can't make Lu Qingyu much impression in terms of appearance and talent-Zhuge Qingqing. But he just remembered his name, and vaguely remembered that he was very good at tending to flowers and plants, and the snow orchid on the wall seemed to be made by him.

Zhuge Qing put the sword behind him and said to Zhuo Yingqiao diligently: "Uncle, you are so capable and benevolent, you should have become the leader of such a huge organization to benefit the martial arts, why do you have to be subservient?" ”

Zhuo Yingqiao didn't speak, just looked at Zhuge Qing, with pity, disappointment, and contempt in his eyes: pity is still just a child, disappointed that this child has done things that are not in line with his age, and contempt for him Even if he does things that are inconsistent with his age, he is still frozen in the level of youth and frivolity.

"Zhuge Qing, why did you help your uncle take my Divine Palace?" Lu Qingyu's eyes were like looking at a three-year-old child.

"Just by virtue of this ......" Zhuge Qing blinked an eye, and a group of killers and dead soldiers followed behind him, and as soon as they entered the palace, they all drew their swords and made moves, and everyone in Luoshen Palace was naturally not to be outdone, and they also drew their swords to meet them. As a result, the shrine was once again in chaos, and it became a completely slaughtering and bloody Shura field.

Lu Qingyu lowered her eyes again, and saw Li Hye and Zhang Xiaoxia's seriously injured and defeated bodies. As he expected, the kung fu of these two people was indeed just a fledgling, and how to defeat the two masters of Luoshen Palace was just to delay time. Helpless, Lu Qingyu had to draw his sword again and fight with Ye Fan and the others. He wasn't worried about Zhuo Yingqiao's choice at all, because he had seen his final decision from Zhuo Yingqiao's eyes just now, he was only afraid that if he moved too slowly, in that case, the blood of Ye Qiuchi and Fan Jia, who had been completely reduced to combat tools, might drain and die after draining.

"Uncle, take advantage of this time to use your most powerful spell 'Blood Crown Full of Autumn Red', so that these three ruthless people will die together and disappear! Zhuge Qing tugged at Zhuo Yingqiao's shirt, and his voice was a little out of tune because of extreme excitement.

Zhuo Yingqiao looked at Zhuge Qing coldly and said, "If I used that spell on them, wouldn't I be just as ruthless?" ”

Zhuge Qing said: "To get rid of these three big devils, it is not too much to use any means. ”

Zhuo Yingqiao said: "Wouldn't it be more pleasant to watch Lu Qingyu fight to death?" ”

Zhuge Qing said: "After Lu Qingyu kills them, he will come to kill us, so we can only take advantage of it now." ”

Zhuo Yingqiao shook his head and said, "Lu Qingyu will not kill them." ”

Zhuge Qing said: "But he obviously wanted to kill you just now, and he is simply an emotionless demon." ”

Zhuo Yingqiao finally glanced at Zhuge Qing and said in a miserable tone: "Then I should really kill him!" After speaking, he raised his hand and formed a spell, Zhuge Qing's eyes had already been reflected red by the red light in his hand, and that red seemed to be mixed with some kind of imagination of power and the pursuit of power. Zhuo Yingqiao looked at him like this and couldn't help but sigh softly, and then saw the streamer in his hand flying out, who knew that Zhuo Yingqiao's spell was not against Lu Qingyu and the three of them, but just fell on Zhuge Qingqing's body, and saw a whirlwind with a fishy smell entwining him to death, and gradually the wind turned red, as if it was pumping Zhuge Qing's blood by the swirl force, and the air was also suspended with bright red blood beads thrown out by the whirlwind and with a stronger fishy smell, and everyone was splashed.

Zhuge Qing didn't even feel the pain, he just never dreamed that his beloved uncle would make a move on him. He only felt that his body was empty and tired, and he could no longer support his restless will.

Lu Qingyu also fought with Ye Qiuchi and Fan Jia. In this process, Lu Qingyu also appreciated the essence of martial arts: it turned out that it was not the highest level of martial arts to kill people, and it was really more difficult to be able to protect the opponent's life without being injured. This Ye Fan and the two of them are in one, and the match can be described as seamless, Lu Qingyu can neither completely shoot nor not shoot at all, this level of physical combat immediately exhausted him, but the other party is still launching fierce attacks again and again, and the moves are killed. Lu Qingyu is really strange: according to his character, he shouldn't be tolerated when dealing with these two people who are already indistinguishable from each other, but why can't he do it?

"Why can't he kill these two people?" Zhuo Yingqiao was also asking the dying Zhuge Qing the same question.

Zhuge Qing couldn't answer anymore, he could only wait for Zhuo Yingqiao's answer with wide eyes. Because he is not a god or a demon, he is also a man with all kinds of feelings. Even if a sentient person deliberately pretends to be ruthless, his affection will still be exposed at a critical moment. Those two were loyal subordinates who followed him for five years and died for him, including me, so his sword was not to kill me, but to test me, why can't you see this? Zhuo Yingqiao's eyes were full of disappointment.

"We are still loyal to him, how can he disregard our life and death, the feelings between people are relative, if you had known this truth, you should have known that I would never betray him." Zhuo Yingqiao continued.

Although Lu Qingyu was fighting, he heard Zhuo Yingqiao's words, it turned out that this person who had always been taciturn knew him better than himself, in fact, everyone knew him, and each of them understood a part of his character, so that when the five of them were together, he was completely in their hearts, and it was he who played this cohesive role that made Luoshen Palace come to this day. When he thought of this, Lu Qingyu suddenly felt a trace of inexplicable emotion in his heart, and this trace of emotion immediately turned into an infinite power, allowing him to instantly comprehend a new sword technique "Snow Full of Heavenly Mountain", a sword swing out of a wall-like sword pressure, which was not lethal, and heavily blocked the attack of Ye Fan and the others, at the same time, Zihua also used an "ice spell", and the ripples of water froze the two of them, and also froze the Gu worms that were violently active in his body.

Lu Qingyu pulled away and came to Zhuge Qing, and his so-called dead soldiers have now really become dead soldiers, although Luo Shen Palace also suffered heavy casualties, but the rebellion was still suppressed.

Zhuge Qing struggled to raise his eyes and looked at the cluster of fresh snow orchids on the wall, and couldn't help frowning: "I don't hesitate to use my own flesh and blood to cast the myth that blooms on the wall like this, just to be able to survive in the Luoshen Palace, and wait for the opportunity to launch a rebellion for you to compete for the position of the lord to repay you for your rescue and acceptance of me, but I didn't expect it...... Am I wrong? ”

"Then how shall I repay the Lord for his kindness to me? Mutiny? ”

"But he has no kindness."

Zhuo Yingqiao finally couldn't help but stroke Zhuge Qing's forehead with pity: "Child, you are just a child." If only Rende was there, Roselle Palace would be long gone by now. ”

Zhuge Qing also closed his eyes - senseless death.

Senseless death happens every day, when will the world be peaceful?

No one has thought about this question.

Lu Qingyu looked at Zhuo Yingqiao's slightly distorted face holding back tears, and finally couldn't help but put his shoulder on his shoulder, but Zhuo Yingqiao was a little flattered, he looked up at Lu Qingyu, and said categorically: "No matter who you are, don't want to replace you, at least I don't allow it." ”

Lu Qingyu knew that Zhuo Yingqiao's words were definitely from the heart. His impulse to rescue Yu Dongqiu now far exceeded the fight for some artifact. He was even a little grateful for this Zhuge Qing, he let him know his subordinates on a deeper level, and also let him understand himself on a deeper level.

Looking out from the palace gate, the sun is just right in the courtyard, and the flowers are gilded with a layer of dazzling gold, so you should really let go of your body and mind and have a good time. It's a pity that for this stormy rivers and lakes, it can only be completely nothing, and it is far less real than a sharp weapon. Lu Qingyu felt tired for the first time.
