Yin Xuan was assassinated when he took the sword of the Son of Heaven, and it was impossible for those people not to do fifteen if they were the first year of junior high school, but when they asked Emperor Mountain is the territory of Da Yin, they didn't dare to make things blatantly, after the failure of the five killers, everything around was calm, and there was no abnormality, the reason why Nie Qingwan came to see Yin Xuan in person was that she was really worried about him, and she couldn't rest assured if she didn't look at him, and secondly, it was also to try the courage and strength of these people behind the scenes.

If the people in the dark have been secretly monitoring them, then the people in the shadows should know that Nie Qingwan is also here, and there are not many people with him, except for Feng Chang, it is a few personal soldiers led by Feng Chang.

If the people in the dark really want to kill Nie Qingwan, the queen mother, and Yin Xuan, the crown prince, then they will definitely not let go of such a good opportunity.

The main thing is that killing these two people can not only make Da Yin turbulent, but also take away Da Yin's Heavenly Son Sword, the weapon of the town.

The queen mother died, the prince had an accident, the sword of the Son of Heaven was lost, once these three news were transmitted back to the imperial capital Huaicheng, the great Yin would be chaotic, and at this time, the whole country would attack it, and the great Yin would be defeated.

There is no doubt that when these three pieces of news are transmitted back to Huaicheng, the imperial capital, they can crush the hearts of any of the people of Da Yin and the hearts of any ministers.

Therefore, Nie Qingwan judged that the person behind the scenes would inevitably take advantage of Yin Xuan's injuries to carry out the assassination.

But half a month has passed, and there is no abnormality around, and there is no suspicious person.

So, don't you have that guts?

If you have the courage to ask Emperor Mountain, the courage to kill Yin Xuan when you break through, and the courage to snatch the sword of the Son of Heaven, how can you not have the courage to kill her, the queen mother?

So, if it's not in the town, it's bound to be halfway.

Nie Qingwan squinted, and when she saw that Yin Xuan was looking down at the biographical information of the five deceased people and those painting books, she asked Nie Yin to open a car window.

As soon as the window opened, a breeze swept in.

The wind in March was still cold to the bone, and as soon as Nie Qingwan was blown by this cold wind, she shivered excitedly, and Nie Yin immediately took a fox fur and put it on her.

The wind blew from the tabletop, and he was about to take off with the paper, Yin Xuan stretched out his hand to suppress it, and glanced up at Nie Qingwan.

Nie Qingwan didn't look at him, she was staring out of the window at the moment.

There are countless states and towns in the Great Yin Empire, and Nie Qingwan has been memorizing these maps since she entered the palace at the age of seven, and by the time she was thirteen years old this year, she had memorized them for six years, and there was hardly a place where the terrain was unknown to her.

She also knew which of the more dangerous terrains she had to pass through from this town to the imperial capital Huaicheng, and if those people did it, they would inevitably choose one of these dangerous terrains.

Nie Qingwan chose to leave so early to prevent too many things from happening at night.

It's just that even if it's a blue sky and a white day, I'm afraid that the little ghost will get in the way.

Nie Qingwan looked at the scenery outside, estimated the time, and when she was about to reach the first dangerous place, she asked Nie Yin to close the window, turned her head and said to Yin Xuan, "Take the Sword of the Son of Heaven and accompany me down for a walk." ”

Yin Xuan was stunned for a moment, and looked at her puzzled: "Go down and take a walk?" Right now? ”

Nie Qingwan said, "Yes, now." ”

Yin Xuan was very puzzled, behind his shoulder was the window, he had been looking at the information on the table just now, almost didn't look out the window, and he didn't know where they had gone, after listening to Nie Qingwan's words, he turned his head and opened the window behind him halfway, then looked out a few times, then closed the window again, and said to Nie Qingwan: "It's all woods outside, and there seems to be a mountain pass in front, what are you going out to do at this time?" ”

Nie Qingwan said, "You go down with me, I'll tell you." ”

After speaking, he raised his hand and asked Nie Yin to inform Ren Ji to stop the carriage.

When the carriage stopped, Nie Yin helped Nie Qingwan down, Yin Xuan put away the information on the table and the painting book and put them in his sleeve pocket, took the sword of the Son of Heaven, and got out of the carriage together.

Ren Ji and Feng Chang both sat in front of the carriage and drove their horses, surrounded by six guards, all of whom were Feng Chang's personal soldiers, including Qi Qi, and several people all rode horses to accompany them.

These people seemed to know why Nie Qingwan got off the carriage halfway, they all looked calm, without a trace of confusion and doubt, Ren Ji and Feng Chang didn't even get off the carriage, how could Yin Xuan, such a shrewd and meticulous person, not find out about this? He narrowed his eyes slightly, and his calm and powerful gaze fell on Nie Qingwan's face.

Nie Qingwan said to Nie Yin: "You go up, I'll take another road with Yin Xuan." ”

Nie Yin said, "Hmm. He said to Yin Xuan: "Protect the Queen Mother." ”

Although Yin Xuan didn't know why, he still responded seriously and solemnly: "I will, with me, I won't let the Queen Mother lose a single hair." ”

Nie Yin got into the carriage, took the dry food package and the kettle out, handed it to Yin Xuan, and saw that Yin Xuan took it and tied it to his waist, so Nie Yin got into the carriage again, lifted the curtain and went in.

Ren Ji and Feng Chang, as well as several guards around them, all glanced at Nie Qingwan and Yin Xuan, and continued to move forward.

When the carriage disappeared, Yin Xuan asked out loud: "There will be danger ahead, right?" ”

Nie Qingwan said: "You were recuperating from your injuries before, so I didn't tell you about it, but with your cleverness, you should be able to guess why I did this." ”

Yin Xuan said: "Those who assassinated me in Emperor Mountain will make a comeback." ”

Nie Qingwan said: "Well, during your recuperation, Feng Chang had many secret investigations, but there was no trace of those people, maybe he gave up such an idea, maybe he was waiting for the opportunity, he dared to kill you, and he dared to snatch the sword of the Son of Heaven, these people are by no means ordinary people, and the people behind the scenes will not be as ignorant and incompetent as the monarch of the Jing Kingdom and the monarch of the Baichuan Kingdom two years ago, they must also be a resourceful person who cannot be underestimated, so we have to guard against it, we will go in two ways, confuse the ears and sights of those people, and let Ji and them take the official road, We take the path. ”

Yin Xuan frowned: "Isn't the path dangerous?" ”

Nie Qingwan said: "It's dangerous, but isn't it you?" ”

Yin Xuan was stunned for a moment, then raised his lips and smiled, he said, "Well, with me, I will protect you." ”

I never felt that the Queen Mother was a weak girl, even though she didn't have a trace of force, but at this moment, looking at her soft little standing in front of him, her height seemed to be less than him, combing children's braids, wearing children's cotton clothes with an average texture, except for that breathtaking face, her dress made people look like a child in the mountain village at first glance.

Yin Xuan stretched out his hand, pulled Nie Qingwan away, and said with a smile: "Then let's walk the mountain road, and by the way, find a family to order cloth, and wrap such a conspicuous sword." ”

In fact, there is also cloth in the carriage, but the texture of those cloths is better, and it is easy to expose the identity when you wrap the sword in that cloth.

Moreover, Gang Yin Xuan didn't know that they were going to go alone, so he didn't think of asking for a sword.

But now it's going to be a one-way street, and you have to wrap up such a conspicuous sword.

Nie Qingwan agreed.

So the two of them went to the mountain path, saw a family, and went to ask for cloth, and did not leave much to get it, and then continued to walk after some gratitude, on the way, Yin Xuan wrapped the sword of the Son of Heaven tightly with cloth, and then put it on his shoulder, the black and gray old coarse cloth with his rough clothes, but also complemented each other, not abrupt at all.

Although it was a small road, it was also a direction to travel, and when encountering mountains and rivers, Yin Xuan held Nie Qingwan and crossed these obstacles.

When I got past the first dangerous place, nothing went wrong.

There were no problems when I crossed the second dangerous place.

However, when passing the third dangerous place, Ren Ji and his party encountered an ambush, it was noon, the sun was shining, the cold wind was clear, there was no one and no car on the official road, only the sudden boulder fell from the top of the head.

The official road is far from the path, but as soon as the shouting and killing on the official road came out, Yin Xuan heard it.

Yin Xuan pulled Nie Qingwan violently, dragged her into his arms, and tightly protected her with his arms, his dark eyes stared vigilantly around, and then pricked up his ears again, listening to the sound of the wind and the sound of tearing in the distance.

Nie Qingwan couldn't hear it and asked him, "Something happened?" ”

Yin Xuan said: "Well, Ren Ji and they were ambushed. ”

Nie Qingwan was silent, although she couldn't hear it, she could judge it, she looked up at the noon sun, and whispered: "These people are just forwards, they are here to explore the way, their purpose is not to tear up, but to make sure that you and I are really in that carriage, so the object of their attack should be the carriage." ”

Yin Xuan didn't say how amazing his ears were, but he could still hear the sound at this distance from the official road, and he listened to it for a while, only to find that the sound of the fight suddenly disappeared.

Yin Xuan lowered his head and looked at Nie Qingwan.

Nie Qingwan asked, "It's over?" ”

Yin Xuan said, "Hmm. ”

Nie Qingwan said: "Then let's go, the most dangerous is ahead." ”

She pulled Yin Xuan's arm and walked forward.

Yin Xuan hurriedly followed, and after following up, he asked her, "Don't you care if they know that we are not in the carriage?" ”

Nie Qingwan said: "Whether you are there or not, you will encounter a strong opponent in a while, you should be vigilant, there is a possibility that someone will stop and kill this path." ”

Yin Xuan's eyes sank, and he responded: "Hmm." ”

The truth is indeed as Nie Qingwan guessed, the group of black-clothed people just now is just a tentative forward, and the real danger is behind.

And this one has been away for a long time, and it almost makes people relax.

Except for the group of killers who appeared at noon, one afternoon, whether it was an official road or a small road, it was calm, and when someone was encountered, Yin Xuan would pick up Nie Qingwan, avoid everyone, and step on the tree.

Of course, he was able to carry Nie Qingwan and step through the tree because they met just ordinary ordinary people.

In the evening, Nie Qingwan was hungry, so she sat with Yin Xuan by a stream to eat dry food, but just swallowed three mouthfuls, Yin Xuan stretched out his hand, grabbed Nie Qingwan's hand and neck, and threw her into his arms, and then the whole person jumped like lightning, fell under the boulder, stretched out his hand, and pressed Nie Qingwan's face into his arms.

He looked up and looked ahead, where, in the dim light of the day, stood a man with a sword, a famous swordsman.

The back of his ears moved, and he also heard footsteps, Yin Xuan looked behind him again, and there was also a person standing, standing with a knife, who was a famous knife.

The person who could silently approach him for a hundred miles to make him perceive the breath was definitely not a simple person, Yin Xuan's black eyes narrowed, and he hugged Nie Qingwan into his arms a little tighter, and he whispered: "There are two people, both of whom are dangerous. ”

Nie Qingwan slapped his hand away, looked forward, and then back, and did see two people, but far away, only vaguely saw the figures, and couldn't see what they looked like or what weapons they were holding.

Yin Xuan was very nervous, but Nie Qingwan didn't feel the slightest nervousness, she only asked, "Is there any sound of fighting on the official road?" ”

Yin Xuan's eyes stared vigilantly at the people in front of him, and his ears didn't dare to relax for a moment to listen to the movements of the people behind, and replied to Nie Qingwan's words in a low voice: "No." ”

Nie Qingwan said: "Then these two people are the leaders." ”

Yin Xuan asked, "Stay alive?" ”

Nie Qingwan said: "No, kill, take the handprint." ”

Yin Xuan: "......" What is the use of taking the handprints of the two killers.

Yin Xuan sighed speechlessly, looked left and right, and felt that it was not safe anywhere, where did he put the little queen mother? There were two killers at once, and he was afraid that he wouldn't be able to take care of it, so that the killers had the opportunity to hurt the little queen mother.

So, he wanted to carry the little queen mother on his shoulders and tie her with the cloth that tied the sword of the Son of Heaven.

It's just that before he could put it into action, the sword-wielder spoke: "We only need the Son of Heaven Sword, we don't want to kill, if you consciously hand over the Son of Heaven Sword, we won't do it." ”

It sounds very similar to the style of the Jianghu people, the sword of the Son of Heaven of the Great Yin Empire is not only coveted by the monarchs of small countries, but also coveted by the kings of other countries, and the people of the rivers and lakes are even more coveted, but the emperor is sad to ask, the sword of the Son of Heaven is difficult to take, and the person who can generally take out the sword of the Son of Heaven must be the true dragon of the Great Yin Empire.

It's not that no one's martial arts can catch up with the kings of the Great Yin Empire, nor is it that the kings of the Great Yin Empire are the people who are crowned with martial arts, just because the kings of the Great Yin Empire are flowing with the blood of the Yin family, and such bloodlines are not rejected by the Sword of the Son of Heaven, so if it is not for the bloodline of the Yin royal family, even if you break through to the last level and go to get the sword of the Son of Heaven, you will be eaten by the sword qi, and die there, none of the lucky people succeed, yes, no one dares to be lucky.

But Wang Jian left the Emperor Mountain, and in the hands of the sword holder, the evil spirit will be much weaker, if the person with deep internal strength can control this sword, this sword is a famous weapon.

With such a famous weapon, which martial idiot doesn't want it?

All wanted.

Especially the swordsman.

It's just that it sounds like the tone of a Jianghu person, but in fact it is not.

Nie Qingwan hooked her lips and sneered, and said to Yin Xuan: "You go and clean them up, and the Son of Heaven Sword will put me here." ”

Yin Xuan frowned, and immediately refused: "No, you have to follow me." ”

Nie Qingwan said: "What they want is the Son of Heaven Sword, where is the Son of Heaven Sword, where is the danger, Ren Ji taught you the internal strength of the mind and two sets of martial arts cheats, you haven't broken through the last level yet, you will break through here today, you must know that when you think that I am in danger all the time, you can burst out to the greatest potential." ”

Yin Xuan tightened her waist hard, and her voice was tense: "Don't think I'm so capable, what if I can't burst out of my potential?" What if I accidentally miss and something happens to you? No way! I can't let you leave me alone, and I can't give you the Sword of the Son of Heaven and put you in danger! ”

Nie Qingwan said: "This is Yi's decree, but also an order, you just need to carry it out, if something really happens to me, you will guard Da Yin." ”

Yin Xuan's eyes shook fiercely and glared at her.

The swordsman was impatient, a flash, the person was gone, in a blink of an eye, Yin Xuan held Nie Qingwan and retreated, avoiding an invisible palm wind, but avoided the back, and met the ruthless knife of the knifeman, Yin Xuan held Nie Qingwan and flashed to the left, retreated to the boulder, Yin Xuan squinted, looking at the two people with a sword and a sword, the body was like electricity, and the line was like a ghost, he reached out and pressed it back, holding the hilt of the sword of the Son of Heaven.

Nie Qingwan said: "Such a thief, he can't use the sword of the Son of Heaven, put the sword away, you just go, do everything you can, kill them, as long as you can kill them, you can do anything." ”

The two of them have already attacked, Yin Xuan has no way to argue with Nie Qingwan anymore, it is impossible to hide all the time, although he is very worried about the little queen mother, but he also knows that once the little queen mother makes a certain order, it will not be disobeyed, although it is dangerous to let her aside, it is even more dangerous to fight with her.

He couldn't take her with him.

Yin Xuan said coldly: "You hide behind the stones." ”

As he spoke, he pushed her back, and the Son of Heaven sword was thrown back, blocking between her and the boulder, forming a protective circle.

has been with the little queen mother for so long, how Yin Xuan can't understand the meaning of her words, she didn't let him use the Son of Heaven Sword, not just as she said, to inspire him not to break through the limit, but there is another aspect of meaning, she said later, 'Do everything you can to kill them, as long as you can kill them, you can do anything', so she asked him not to rely too much on the power of weapons, to strengthen his own ability. What are your own abilities? The ability to kill.

Yin Xuan turned around, his pants were raised, at that moment, he had no sharp blade, single-handedly, his face that could be printed in the moonlight was cold and cold, and his eyes printed in the moonlight were like ghosts.

The swordsman and the swordsman were stunned, but seeing that he didn't have the sword of the Son of Heaven, the two of them were not very jealous, and they reached an agreement with a clear understanding as soon as their eyes met, first kill the small, powerful, and then kill the big one, not powerful.

Nie Qingwan has no martial arts, and it is easy to kill her.

As long as the kid in front of him is solved, the Heavenly Son Sword and the Queen Mother are all theirs.

After the two of them agreed, they attacked Yin Xuan with all their might, Yin Xuan was already at a disadvantage with one enemy and two enemies, and he was bare-handed, and he gradually fell behind the fight not long after, he was cut in many places on his body, and he didn't know where to hit people, Nie Qingwan didn't follow, so he stood there with his back hand, looking at the front in silence.

The sky at dusk gradually turned dark, there were moons and stars, but it was not very bright, the surroundings were silent, the wind blew, the leaves sounded, making people listen to the heartbeat, too quiet, the silence was terrible, too dark, black and terrifying, but Nie Qingwan didn't seem to be frightened, not afraid, how she stood at dusk, how she still stood now, the Son of Heaven Sword was still wrapped in cloth, standing quietly in front of her.

After a while, it was probably one pillar of incense, about two pillars of incense, Nie Qingwan smelled the thick turbid bloody gas, and then she saw a vague figure running towards the faint moonlight.

The man flew fast, and in the blink of an eye, he came nearer.

When he could see it clearly, Nie Qingwan saw that this person was Yin Xuan, his clothes were stained with a lot of blood, on his chest, on his arms, even on his hair, his face was also stained with blood, and there was even more blood on his hands, but his eyes were blazing, his dark pupils flashed with a scorching light, and he said to Nie Qingwan excitedly: "I have broken through the last level of that mental method and the last level of those two sets of sword techniques!" ”

As soon as Nie Qingwan's tense nerves dissipated, the breath that she had been holding on to since she stood there at dusk finally dissipated, and she suddenly softened, and the whole person sat on the ground.

Yin Xuan was stunned for a moment, and reached out to help her, but as soon as his hand stretched out, he saw that there was so much blood, so he didn't dare to help, and let Nie Qingwan sit down.

Nie Qingwan raised her sleeve and wiped her forehead.

Yin Xuan also squatted down and looked at her: "Are you worried about me?" You don't believe in me as much as you think, and you're afraid that I'm not capable enough to defeat the two of them, and you're afraid that I'll die, aren't you? ”

Nie Qingwan didn't answer and asked, "Those two are dead?" ”

Yin Xuan said, "Hmm. ”

Nie Qingwan asked, "You don't have weapons, how did you kill the two of them?" ”

Yin Xuan smiled, the smile greeted the moonlight, licked the blood, printed on the handsome face like a god, really like a ghost, he whispered: "I don't have weapons, but they have weapons, I am good at swordsmanship, so when I start, I focus on attacking the swordsman, not to kill him, only to take his sword, with his sword in hand, they are not my opponents." ”

Nie Qingwan was really relieved to hear him say this, this kid is very smart, has a high level of understanding, and has a strong ability to adapt to the situation, he broke through the limit this time, and nothing can stop him in the future.

Nie Qingwan lowered her eyes, took out the handkerchief from her sleeve pocket, took his hand, wiped the blood on his hand little by little, wiped it, turned around and went to the stream to wash the handkerchief, and came over to wipe the blood on his face.

Yin Xuan sat cross-legged on the ground, looking at her motionlessly, looking at her gentle eyebrows, feeling the wipe of her gentle fingers, thinking in her heart that she was obviously very cruel, even if she was worried that he would die, she would not let him use the Son of Heaven Sword, when she ordered him not to use the Son of Heaven Sword, she may have made a plan that he would die, but she knew that he would die, she still refused him to use the sword, this is a ruthless and heartless girl, even if she is only thirteen years old, what she does is also chilling, but why, He actually felt the heart-warming warmth from her?

At this moment, Yin Xuan really wanted to hug her into his arms.

But, just thinking about it, he didn't do that.

He just looked at her, and slowly the corners of his eyes were dyed, and he was happy at this moment, but he didn't know if this happiness came from him breaking through the limit, or if he killed the killer and protected her, or because of her gentle treatment.

She has always been very gentle with him, and rarely speaks harshly, basically nothing.

However, tonight's gentleness was different, and he saw her nervousness in tonight's tenderness.
