Chapter Twenty-Seven: The night is dark and the moon is thick, and the road ahead is unknown
On the top of the moon, the breeze caresses the overgrown depressed courtyard, and the remnants of the desert are imprinted on the uneven ground.
Xiao Liu'er swallowed nervously, is this the place the residence that the man said?
The courtyard in front of him has obviously been abandoned for a long time, but the iron bolt on the old wooden door is new, which looks out of place, and it feels a little weird. Every place in this Qin City, Xiao Liu'er is clear, and this courtyard has been uninhabited since he was born.
Xiao Liu'er has been shuttling through the streets of Qincheng since he was five years old, and has seen many different people, but he has really never met such a person as Moli.
However, since he has already agreed, he will not back down, after all, he has already weighed his fate on this person from now on.
Gently pushing open the old wooden door, the wooden door creaked unpleasantly as he moved. Xiao Liu'er's heart trembled, he immediately closed his eyes, and slowly opened them in an instant, looking into the courtyard.
The crisp chirping of cicadas in the ears also has a bit of poignant meaning in this place, and every chirp seems to be urging people to reincarnate. Xiao Liu'er lifted the bamboo lantern in his hand, and the faint light only illuminated the land under his feet less than an inch, less than the round of silver light above his head.
"Heroes? Swordsman? ......" Xiao Liu'er didn't know the name of the indifference, and only whispered the name that he thought should be a good match.
However, he screamed for a long time, but did not hear a single response, only the chirping of cicadas in the trees and a few faint cries of birds in the distance. He carried the lantern and walked carefully on the ground full of broken branches and leaves, and every step was accompanied by a creaking sound, making every step seem to be stepping on his heart.
"This yard is not something you should be into." The cold and thin voice was like the dew of a cold night, but in Xiao Liu'er's ears, the voice was eerie and terrifying, like a cold sword on his neck.
"No offense, it's just that the villain has news and came to inform. Seeing that the door was ajar, he made his own plans and walked in, hoping that the hero would forgive him. Xiao Liu'er pretended to be calm, and the candle flame of the lantern in her hand flickered, so faint that a gust of wind could blow it away.
"Say." With just one faint word, Xiao Liu'er didn't even know where the voice came from, he could only look into the main house, and use it as the place where the sound came from.
"Half a month ago, that young lady entered West Street and never came out again." Xiao Liu'er stiffened, her face looked a little pale in the cold moonlight, and a layer of cold sweat was already on her back.
As soon as he finished speaking, Xiao Liu'er felt an internal force pushing him out of the door, his hand was unstable, the lantern fell to the ground, and the faint candle flame was extinguished in an instant.
In a hurry, he spread his hands and said busily: "Not long after that young lady entered West Street, all forces in the rivers and lakes gathered in Qincheng, saying that they were looking for someone, but in the end they were hopeless."
The force seemed to be much softer, and after pushing Xiao Liu'er out of the door, the next second, the wooden door quickly closed. The iron bolt on the door swayed, as if denying him entry.
"Hero ......" Xiao Liu'er stepped forward, and before his hand knocked on the door, he heard a sound beside him, his lantern was falling aside, the candle in the lantern had been lit again, and a small cloth bag next to the lantern, he quickly stepped forward and picked it up.
Just as he was about to take a closer look, he heard the faint voice sound again, "This is your reward." ”
After that, there was no other words, no matter how Ren Xiaoliuer asked, there were only cicadas in the air. In the end, as if he was arguing, an internal force struck, and he collapsed to the ground again.
Xiao Liu'er patted the dust on his body, exhaled a breath of turbidity, looked helplessly at the closed wooden door, shook his head, carried the lantern, and disappeared in front of the door.
Yinhui stood on top of a roof, his eyes faintly looked in the direction where Xiao Liu'er left, and a trace of thought flashed in his indifferent eyes. He could see Xiao Liu'er's thoughts, but there were some things that he could get easily, so he wouldn't cherish them.
West Street? Mo Li thought of what he had heard today, why did Miss Yi's delicate body go to that dangerous place? It seems that the rivers and lakes are also involved.
Mo Li looked up at the pitch-black sky, the cold moonlight was obscured by the dark clouds, leaving only a trace of brilliance. The Southern Dynasty is about to change!
Away from the mountain, Hanryan Temple.
Qin Shu lay on the bed, looking into the distance, her clear eyes swept the scene outside the window without focus, and none of them left an impression in her eyes. She closed her eyes, emptied all thoughts from her mind, and drew a card from the tarot card next to her pillow with a blank face.
Her slender wrist slowly raised, holding the card in her hand in front of her eyes, and by the light outside the window, she saw the card in her hand, the moon card.
A wolf and a dog howling left and right, a crayfish on the riverside, the moon in the sky with its eyes closed, its brows furrowed, and its oppressive dark blue hue all over the deck.
For some reason, the summer wind blew on Qin Shu's body, but she felt a little cold, she got up with her clothes and stood in front of the window. There are some things that no matter how much she deceives herself, it is useless, and she is really confused now.
There's nowhere to come from, nowhere to go. In this strange world, she is not even a passerby.
Qin Shu didn't know how long she had been standing in front of the window, and when she got up the next day, her legs seemed to weigh a thousand pounds, and every time she moved, it seemed as if a thin needle had pierced into it. When Yin Yueren entered the house, she saw Qin Shu walking to the table with difficulty.
Her body was as straight as usual, but her feet were much stiffer, and each step took a long time to complete. Yun Shu behind Yin Yueren was about to step forward, when a peach blossom fragrance wafted by, and in the blink of an eye, Yin Yueren had already helped Qin Shu.
"What's wrong with you?" Yin Yueren carefully helped Qin Shu to sit in front of the table.
Yun Shu put the basin in his hand on the noodle rack, squatted in front of Qin Shu, and checked her legs, "Miss, what's wrong?" ”
"No problem." Qin Shu waved her hand lightly, put her skirt down, and raised an elegant smile with her picturesque delicate eyebrows, "It's just that I stood for a long time last night, just take a rest." ”
Yin Yueren didn't buy it, her charming eyes stared at Qin Shu, obviously a little dissatisfied with her words, only to see her lips lightly opened, "Xiao Shu, don't ask why you have to stand for so long, I will take you to the Heavy Domain for training now, how long can your body last?" ”
"Yun Shu, you go find some hot soup and towels, I will use them for hot compresses." After Qin Shu explained to Yun Shu, she turned her head to look at Yin Yueren and said softly, "It's much better in this way."
"Xiaoshu, you are really stubborn." Yin Yueren sighed helplessly, Qin Shu is good at everything, but she is unwilling to accept the kindness of others.
Qin Shu smiled, put Yin Yueren's hand hanging on the side, and said softly: "Okay, Sister Yin came so early, just to taste our Jian Yue's craftsmanship, which is not worse than the chef of Luochen Building."
Yin Yueren's eyes were staring at Qin Shu's eyes, as if she wanted to see something from them, but those eyes had always been as calm as a lake, without a trace of waves. She stared at it for a long time, and could only give up, "Come with me after eating, you know?" ”
"Okay." Qin Shu put her hand in the basin brought by Yun Shu, and put her jade-white palm into the clear water, causing layers of ripples.
The moment she stepped into the Heavy Domain, Qin Shu really knew for the first time the reason why Qin Lou was strong, only adversity could temper so many of the best masters in the rivers and lakes. She followed behind Yin Yueren, and Yun Shu and Jian Yue had already been taken to other places for training.
In the heavy domain, everywhere, Qin Shu can see the unyielding soul.
Somewhere in the heavy domain, Wei Feiyan sat in front of a window, looking at the people who were training hotly below, and drank the wine in his hands. His raised eyes swept over the crowd, and at a glance he saw Qin Shu's thin figure, and she didn't see her a little stronger after half a month of recuperation.
However, in the afternoon, Qin Shu's plain clothes could no longer see the original color, but her delicate little face was a resolute look. Even from such a distance, Wei Feiyan could also imagine those calm eyes like a lake.
Wei Feiyan didn't know why she came to see Qin Shu's training, probably to see where her potential was. After seeing him, he realized that the training that was not worth mentioning in his eyes could make Qin Shu fall countless times.
Unconsciously, not a drop of wine could be poured into the wine jar in his hand, and his eyes were still clear. Looking at Yin Yueren's training method, Wei Feiyan suddenly felt that it might not be a good idea for him to let Yin Yueren train.
Yin Yueren is an informal right protector outside, but in the heavy domain, he is an instructor that everyone fears. Because she is Qin Shu, at first she will control her training intensity, but after seeing Qin Shu's tenacity, her intensity is getting bigger and bigger, and every time Qin Shu drags her half-crippled body.
Wei Feiyan watched it for a day, and had an inexplicable feeling in his heart, this should not be the path that Qin Shu should take.
When Wei Feiyan appeared in front of Qin Shu again, he only said one sentence, "I will teach you in the future." ”
After saying that, she left the medicine and left, Qin Shu watched Wei Feiyan leave the figure inexplicably, and continued to wipe the wounds on her body. In the past few days, she has been like this every day after training, and the injuries on her body have healed and injured, and she has never healed.
Because the training of the heavy domain is closed, Qin Shu is the only one who can only do everything by herself. Even if it was injured, no one took the medicine.
Qin Shu didn't take Wei Feiyan's words to heart, but the impact of changing a training person on her was only a matter of training methods and intensity. She had heard Yin Yueren say that Wei Feiyan was the first and only one to walk out of the Twelve Folds of the Heavy Domain. Perhaps, it is even more fortunate for her to let Wei Feiyan train.
On the second day, as soon as a glimmer of light rose in the sky, Qin Shu woke up. As soon as her eyes opened, she saw Yin Yueren's magnified pretty face, her eyes were in a trance for a moment, her pupils shrank slightly, and they returned to normal.
"Xiaoshu, the landlord asked you to go to the Wufu Palace, and I am your guide." Yin Yueren's voice filtered through Qin Shu's mind once before she remembered what Wei Feiyan had said last night.
Qin Shu got up slowly, Yin Yueren consciously sat on the edge of the bed, a peach-colored shirt with a jasper forbidden around her waist, and the tassel of red agate fell obediently below.
