Chapter 219: The Valley of the Shadows
An Xia looked back at him with some anger, in the past half a month, Xunlin has sold her nine times, and each time it is almost a price of hundreds of thousands, these money makes Xunlin love it, he regards Anxia as his cash cow, and their cooperation with each other is becoming more and more tacit.
It's just that that time was the last time An Xia was sold, and she waited for Xunlin in the prison car for three days, but he never appeared.
"Miss, you just come with us, that kid won't come back, our young master gave him a lot of money."
An Xia's eyebrows tightened, for some reason he never believed that Xunlin would be such a person.
"Who is your young master, what is he spending so much money to sell me?"
"We don't need to say more about the identity of the eldest lady, you should understand how many people want that bounty in the current Great Wilderness."
"I'm afraid it's not a small amount to impress Xunlin, one million dollars, I'm afraid your young master will lose money."
"It's not going to be a loss."
An Xia turned around, and it was Heiyu who was outside the prison car.
"It turned out to be you, no wonder they were so gentle with me, it seems that you have explained it, right?"
Black Domain nodded affirmatively.
"Although your brother and I are competitors, we are not enemies, the Lord of Qidu is our teacher, and you and I are considered brothers and sisters."
"Who's with you?"
Anxia glared at Heiyu viciously, then twisted her head to the side.
"Don't be like this, I spent money to buy you, I was entrusted by your brother, and he asked me to bring you back to Xuanjing."
"What about Xunlin?"
"He, isn't that a liar? He grabbed you in his hands and resold you one after another, he should have made a lot of money, right? ”
An Xia looked at Hei Yu suspiciously.
"My brother asked you to save me?"
Heiyu nodded puzzledly, "Although Lei Luo is disgusted, he follows Teacher Qidu to fight everywhere, even if I have a holiday with him, I still don't bother to do such a thing as falling into the well and taking advantage of the danger of others." ”
The chariots and horses of the Black Domain returned to Xuanjing, and before entering Xuanjing, Anxia saw Xunlin again, the guy who disgusted and hated her, and actually followed her to Xuanjing.
Since then, Anxia has been asking around, and she has always wanted to see Xunlin again, although she knows that even if she finds him, she can't do anything, but for some reason, she just wants to find him. Then Lei Luo came back, it was his sixth time with Qi Du, An Xia knew that every time Lei Luo came back, he would be scarred by torture, but that time was an exception, it was not Lei Luo who was injured, but their Qi Du teacher.
"Thunderfall, get out of here!"
An Xia hadn't woken up in a daze yet, and someone was already shouting at the door.
"Bang Bang~"
"Ahh
With the sound of fighting and shouting, Anxia fell asleep again, it had been like this for several days in a row, those other heirs, they would come to Lei Luo's mansion every day because of Qi Du's injuries and shouted with him, but the result was much the same, those who shouted were all beaten home by Lei Luo without exception.
"Brother, is the teacher's injury serious, don't we really have to go to see him?"
Lei Luo was wielding the new swordsmanship that Qi Du had taught him not long ago, and An Xia sat by the window and looked at him expressionlessly.
"The teacher said that this defeat, those guys who are not convinced on weekdays will take turns to come to the door and shout, and he asked me to beat them away."
"But why are you not allowed to enter the palace, is there a new change in the selection of the successor."
Thunderfall continued to wield his swordsmanship as if nothing had happened.
"Last time, I asked the Black Domain to save you, this guy didn't embarrass you, right?"
An Xia pouted and shook her head, "He didn't embarrass me, it's just that beast Xunlin, it's best not to let me catch it." ”
"Xunlin?" Lei Luo glanced at An Xia suspiciously, "This guy bullied you?" ”
"Don't stop bullying, he cheated for half a month."
Lei Luo stopped suddenly, and then looked back at An Xia coldly, although he didn't speak, An Xia knew what he would do. Three days later, Xunlin was beaten all over his body, with multiple fractures in his hands and feet, and Lei Luo had people drag him to Anxia's room.
"Miss Anxia, I didn't expect you to hold such a grudge."
From time to time, some blood flowed from Xunlin's mouth, but there was no painful look on his face, and he smiled happily, as if it was all a pleasure.
"Why did you lie to me in the first place?"
"If I don't lie to you, how can I get so much money, besides, although I lied to you, I still sent you back to Xuanjing safely, right?"
An Xia looked Xunlin up and down with some anger.
"How much money did the Black Domain give you?"
"Three million dollars before and after."
"Plus the previous one, you have almost five million dollars, why do you want to follow me to Xuanjing."
Xunlin shook his head and smiled.
"The Black Domain is your brother's enemy, I can't trust him."
"But if he really wants to hurt me, do you think you can save me?"
Xunlin muttered two words in his mouth, and then fainted in front of Anxia's eyes, out of curiosity, Anxia asked Xunlin to take Xunlin to a bamboo house on the outskirts of the city, which was Anxia's secret base, and even Lei Luo didn't know.
Since then, Anxia has been delivering medicine to Xun Ling every day, not because she is reluctant to let him die, but because she doesn't want him to die.
"How? Have you been feeling better lately? ”
Xunlin smiled and struggled to get up.
"Okay, almost, you see, I can get up."
An Xia looked at Xun Lin on the bed, shook his head helplessly, and then sighed and said: "Lei Luo, this guy is really excessive, he is so ruthless, and he is not afraid of beating people to death." ”
"He is the successor, the future leader of the Great Wilderness, of course he won't care about me."
Xunlin suddenly grabbed Anxia's hand for his bazaar wound.
"I thought you'd kill me, but you didn't."
An Xia suddenly blushed, he hurriedly broke free from Xunlin's clutches, and then said a little angrily: "If you do this again, I will kill you now." ”
Xunlin looked at Anxia and suddenly laughed again.
"Kill me, but before I die, I want to ask you to do me a favor."
An Xia hesitated for a moment, then asked, "What do you want me to do for you?" ”
"In a ruined temple in the west of the city, there is a million dollars I have deposited, can you help me send it to this place."
As he spoke, Xunlin took out a map from his arms, and the bright red handwriting on it should have been drawn by Xunlin with his own blood in the past two days.
"The money must be delivered, they are all waiting for it."
"Them?"
An Xia looked at Xunlin in surprise, then took the map, trekked for more than 300 miles, and found the village marked by Xunlin at the junction of Sandu and Xuanjing, a place with a whole mountain.
It was a fortress built according to natural hazards, the narrow aisle at the entrance only allowed one person to pass, and the abyss under the bridge was even more daunting. Anxia took the token given by Xunlin and cautiously came to the village. It was Xiao Qi who came to pick up Anxia, a free and cute girl.
"You're here to send money to the fifth brother, right?"
An Xia nodded slightly.
"How is Fifth Brother doing? Why didn't he come himself? ”
An Xia thought for a moment, and then said, "Xunlin has been busy with other businesses recently, so let me come over." ”
Xiao Qi glanced at An Xia suspiciously.
"When did you meet Fifth Brother?"
"It's been a few months."
"No wonder," Xiao Qi said vigilantly: "Generally, we don't care if the fifth brother is called Xunlin, that name, only outsiders can call it." ”
"I'm not considered an outsider, right?"
An Xia handed Xiao Qi the token that Xunlin gave her.
"It's strange, how could the fifth brother let a friend who has known each other for a few months come here."
Xiao Qi took the money bag in An Xia's hand, and then took An Xia and continued to walk inside.
"What is this place, and why is it so hidden?"
"This is the Hidden Valley, and my fifth brother and I both grew up here, didn't he tell you?"
Ansha shook her head.
"Why didn't the fifth brother tell you anything?"
Xiao Qi thought for a while, and then continued: "There are many children here, most of their parents died because of the war, and some of them are because of party strife, in short, the children here are orphans without parents. ”
"So you adopted them and let them die for you?"
Xiao Qi shook his head.
"This is a secluded valley, not a killer training camp, and children here can leave here when they live to be eighteen years old, go to the outside world, and find their own way of living."
"Then what good is it for you to work hard to raise them?"
Xiao Qi looked at An Xia in surprise.
"Why do you have to do it if there is a benefit, we used to be orphans like them, if it weren't for the Hidden Valley, my fifth brother and I would have died outside."
"Little Seventh Sister, Little Seventh Sister."
A few cute children ran to Anxia and them.
"Here's for you."
A child handed Anxia a small stone.
"This is Tianhe's wishing stone, the fifth brother said, as long as we listen to the words of the little seventh sister and Mr., we can get the gifts we want during the New Year."
"Last year I wanted a cloth bear, so I took a small stone and made a wish, and then I woke up and had it."
A few children innocently shared with Anxia.
Xiao Qi looked at An Xia and smiled, and then said: "Take it, there are more than a thousand children here, they make a wish every year, and the fifth brother will always satisfy them, these children are much happier than when we were children." ”
"Are these children being raised by Xunlin alone?"
"Most of the money was brought back by the fifth brother, he likes it here, and he likes these children."
"No wonder this guy wants money and doesn't want to die."
An Xia secretly underestimated that after returning from the Hidden Valley, her attitude towards Xunlin seemed to have changed as if she had changed as a person.
"How's it going today? Your injuries should be almost healed. ”
Xun Lin leaned against the door of the bamboo building, his injuries had basically improved, the last time An Xia helped him earn enough money, but to feed so many people in the valley, that money was only enough for half a year.
"I've bothered you in the past few months."
"It was my brother who injured you, and I should take care of you."
Anxia looked at Xunlin, and I don't know when this man became a lot taller in her eyes.
"It's time for me to leave, I haven't worked for so long, those kids should have nothing to eat."
"I just sent someone to see it last month, and they're doing well."
"You sent someone?"
Xunlin suddenly turned around and looked at An Xia with a sharp expression.
"Don't worry, I just asked them to go over and deliver the money, and I didn't let them in."
"In the future, you don't have to worry about this kind of thing, and don't let your people go to that place again."
"I just want to take care of those kids, I have no ill will."
"Do you know who they are?"
An Xia shook her head slightly.
"Didn't Xiao Qi tell me that those children were orphans?"
"Yes, they are orphans, but some of the children escaped from the court, and their parents died at the hands of people like your brother."
"What kind of person is my brother?"
"Do you want me to say it?" Xun Lin looked at An Xia expressionlessly, "How many people has he killed over the years in order to compete with the Black Domain for the position of the desolate master?" You don't have to defend him, no one can bear his guilt for him. ”
"I won't defend myself, and I don't need to."
An Xia was a little angry and ready to leave, but suddenly turned back and said: "The chaos of the Great Wilderness cannot be solved by someone leaving here, you will never understand that if we want the people to live a stable life, we must have a stable king." ”
After that quarrel, Anxia didn't see Xunlin for a long time, until one day Lei Luo said that Xunlin and his organization had made a big mistake, and Duhu Yequan was chasing them everywhere.
"Miss, this Sandu is a barren land, are you sure we want to operate here?"
