As soon as I ran to Niankong's side, I saw a mouthful of blood spurt out of him.

I was shocked. "Niankong!"

His body slid uncontrollably to the ground, and I hurriedly supported him, but due to lack of strength, he still fell to the ground.

"What's wrong with you?" I subconsciously reached out and checked his pulse. He seemed stunned and ducked, his voice weak: "It's nothing." ”

"You're vomiting blood, how can you be fine!? What the hell is wrong with you? "I'm in a hurry.

He barely pulled a smile out of my arms. "I just don't use force. Just now, the matter was urgent, and he used his internal strength to be a little more anxious, and his qi and blood surged......" His words became more and more laborious, and his body became cold.

"You're a symptom of poison, but now shouldn't be the time for poison." Could it be that the time of the poison has been brought forward? But now is the most ugly time, and the real time for poison should not be before dawn, right?

He shook my hand as if to comfort me. "It's just because the internal force is too strong, so it doesn't matter."

"But......" I was about to speak, but he interrupted me.

"Can you help me go to the hot spring cave?" His voice trembled slightly.

That's right, hot springs! The hot springs relieved his poisonous symptoms. I didn't say much, but carefully lifted him up.

It was a very difficult journey, and I was afraid that he would faint suddenly, and he almost fell several times.

Seeing that the cave covered by vines was getting closer and closer, there was a sudden flash in front of us, and six or seven people appeared out of thin air, blocking our way.

Niankong was extremely fast, and pulled me behind him.

"Senior brother, oh no, it should be called Commander Ling, I haven't seen you for a long time, don't come unharmed." The person who spoke out was dressed in a gray dark striped suit, although his figure was not as tall as Niankong, but he was extremely well-proportioned, and his muscle lines were prominent, obviously a person who practiced martial arts.

Looking at this person's grim face, I was stunned, "Commander Ling...... Why does this sound familiar?

After speaking, the man looked at me, his eyes flashed, and he said, "I didn't expect that Miss Leng would still follow him until now." What kind of ecstasy soup did he pour on you, so that you could even let go of the revenge of killing your father? He spoke sarcastically.

Something in my head flashed and I couldn't grasp the slightest.

"Commander Ling" ...... "Cold Girl" ...... "Father's Hatred"......

My brain suddenly thundered: Nian Kong is he! ……

I looked at Ninkong in disbelief. I saw that his expression was very calm, but the hand holding my arm tightened a little.

"Senior Brother Cangyue is really interested, he came here at night, didn't he come to admire the moon?" Niankong's voice was clear and pleasant, without the slightest hint of weakness, as if his vomiting blood and poisonous hair just now was just my hallucination.

The corners of Cangyue's mouth hooked, and she said with interest: "I am on the orders of the master, and I invite the senior brother to go back to the mountains for a while." ”

Niankong raised an eyebrow. "Senior Brother Cangyue is not confused, the Venerable Master has already ascended to the Immortal, how can I and other ordinary people be able to see it when they say it?"

Cangyue's face suddenly changed when she heard this. "What 'Venerable Master'!? Ling Niankong, who is your master, you don't need me to remind you!? ”

Niankong's tone was still unfazed. "I only worshiped Master Xiuli as a teacher, and Niankong has always been in my heart, and I don't need to be reminded by my junior brother."

Cangyue snorted coldly. "Ling Niankong, you are a villain who deceived the teacher and destroyed the ancestors. Do you think you really killed Master back then?! What a joke! Just with you and Xiao Jifeng, how can you hurt the master in the slightest?! ”

Niankong didn't care about Cangyue's accusation, and took my hand, wanting to bypass the group in front of him. Unexpectedly, they stepped forward one after another, and with a snort, they all pulled out their swords at their waists, and waited for the battle.

Seeing this scene, Nian Kong sighed faintly. "Senior Brother Cangyue, you know that they are not my opponents, but they are still like this, it really makes me embarrassed."

Cangyue sneered. "It may have been true that we were no match for you in the past, but today we are very different."

"What's the difference?" Niankong squeezed my arm quietly. I don't know what it means, so I don't dare to act rashly.

"You hide it well, but you can't hide it from my eyes. Your steps are vain and your breath is disordered, and it must be the poison in your body. If we don't seize the opportunity, when will we wait? Give it to me! ”

They had to order their swords to be stabbed at both of us. I was horrified in my heart, and I only felt that Niankong grabbed me, and carried a few quick dodges of light skills, but I didn't attack at all. I knew that he would never use force again, and I was anxious.

Seeing that the six or seven people were about to shoot again after missing a blow, they only heard Cangyue say gloomily: "Stop!" I'm going to ask my brother to go back in person. After speaking, he suddenly turned his palm into a claw, and the claw actually struck at my neck, so fast that in the blink of an eye I felt a strong wind blowing in my face. Seeing this, Niankong seemed to be furious, and stretched out his hand to protect me, but he didn't want Cangyue to suddenly change the target of the attack, and slapped Niankong on the chest!

"Niankong!"

I saw him spurt out another mouthful of blood, and his body slipped to the ground softly.

"You!" I glared at Cangyue, but he ignored it. I suddenly felt a pain in the back of my neck, and suddenly my eyes went black and I lost consciousness.

******

In a daze, the two memories of the original owner flashed alternately in front of his eyes. Unlike before, I finally saw the face of the man in Tsing Yi in my dream. That's right, it's him, Niankong.

But what he said in the dream, I still don't know.

When I opened my eyes, I found that the surrounding environment was very dim, and the only source of light was the torches on the stone wall, which only illuminated the larger ground.

Stone wall? It looks like it's a cave.

I didn't see any trace of Niankong, but I thought of the scene before I fell unconscious, and I was very worried, so I called him: "Niankong? Are you there? ”

There was no response but echoes. I was a little anxious, and I took off the torch, but I didn't know where to look for him, so I had to choose a direction with my instinct and move slowly. The sound of footsteps is crisp, echoing in the cave.

"Niankong? Niankong? I called him many times, but there was still no answer. Where exactly am I?

As I walked forward in thought, I suddenly felt something under my feet.

What is it? When I pulled the torch over, I found it to be a bone. It seems to be...... It seems to be a human leg bone.

A sense of foreboding suddenly swelled up in his heart, and he quickened his pace and continued to move forward. Further on, I found more and more human bones scattered on the ground. After a rough calculation in my heart, there were dozens of people. I was shocked to see what kind of place this was, where there were so many bones! Suddenly, he felt that the echo of his footsteps was not as ethereal as Fang Cai, and he couldn't help but look up, but he was instantly frozen.

I saw that I had reached the end of the cave. In front of the stone wall at the end there are piles of white flowers, in the shape of a hill. And the pile of things is none other than human bones!

A chill ran down my spine and up my head. I gasped and took two steps back, only to feel something hit behind me, and my body froze. The fear in my heart piled up to the extreme, and the screams were about to spill out of my throat, but my eyes were suddenly covered by a palm.

"Xuan'er ......" The voice of the person behind me was very weak, and the hand covering my eyes was still trembling.

"Niankong!?" I turned sharply to look at him.

"Hmm."

His face was as pale as paper, and his body suddenly fell short, and I hurried to help him, but I fell to the ground with him.

"Niankong, how are you?"

His head rested on my shoulder, very weak.

"It's okay, just take a break."

Are you sure? My heart tightened inch by inch when I remembered the image of him spitting blood from his mouth, but I knew that he didn't want to talk to me about his injuries, so I could only knock on the side: "We ...... Where is this? Who is that Cangyue? Who is his master? ”

He smiled bitterly when he heard this, and only answered the first question: "Yunhua Mountain......"

I chuckled in my heart: sure enough, my guesses were correct.

When I heard the conversation between Niankong and Cangyue before, and heard the "Commander Ling", "Leng Girl", and "Father's Hatred" mentioned by Cangyue, I suddenly remembered the story of Commander Ling and Nanli's first talented woman Leng Qingqian who had been told by the old man when I entered the city with Kong'er and Yue Luanxi in Mingxianglou together.

It is said that the commander of Na Ling was taken into Yunhua Mountain by a demon girl named Shen Yan since he was a child, and many years later he and his companions slashed the demon girl, not only regained his freedom, but also received a reward from the Nanli Emperor. Commander Na Ling was ordered to lurk beside Leng Yihan, the commander of the Nanli army, to collect evidence of his collaboration with the enemy and treason. In order to successfully complete the mission, he also intends to get close to his daughter Leng Qingqian......

The more I think about it, the colder my heart becomes. It turned out that Niankong was the leader of that Ling, and the original owner was the daughter of the Leng family who was completely injured by him. Xiu Li is really right, he is by no means a gentle and kind person.

Yes, he has been ravaged by oblivion since he was a child, and he and his companions are killing each other in a dark cave to survive. Even if it's a gentle temperament, there will be a drastic change, right!?

Thinking of this, his heart suddenly ached, he had experienced many unimaginable pains and tortures!

As if seeing the sadness in my eyes, he asked with a wry smile: "Has Xuan'er heard the rumors of Yunhua Mountain?" ”

"Hmm."

He sighed helplessly, but he actually touched a skeleton not far away. I didn't know why, I just watched him move in a daze. He seemed to have picked up something.

He withdrew his hand and spread out his palm to show me. In his palm lay a piece of jade pendant, the whole body was white, and the jade quality was of high quality. The jade pendant is round, carved with dragon patterns around it, and there is a "颀" character engraved in the middle.

My heart jumped: an accessory engraved with a dragon pattern must be a royal thing. And this word "颀" ...... The storyteller said that Yue Lingqi, the third prince who had abducted Yue Xiongqi back then......

"What is this?"

"This is Qi'er's jade pendant." He subconsciously looked at the skeleton, which was clearly not grown. "He was only ten years old, the same age as I did when I first arrived......," he said, in a very low tone, with infinite sorrow.

Presumably he was very close to that man back then! Otherwise, I wouldn't have shown such a look.

Then he ...... "I'm a little timid.

He has a tenacity, he was bullied in the first year of Yunhua Mountain, but he still maintains a proud backbone. I saw my own shadow in him, and I always protected him. But I don't want to ......," he paused, as if he was out of breath. "But he didn't want to sink into oblivion, and imprisoned me in the same hole as him. Ten others were imprisoned along with them. It was the second time I had been imprisoned in the cave, and I continued to protect him until the two of us were the only ones left......" His voice lowered.

I shook his hand lightly, he looked at me, smiled reluctantly, and said again: "I still remember his eyes and expressions." He said I could only live if he died...... "The pain in his eyes terrified me.

He didn't say any more, but it was not difficult to guess the situation later: Qi'er was willing to die for him, and Niankong was willing to live for him, or in order not to let Yue Lingqi die in vain, so he ......
