"I'm afraid that when you go to Kunlun, some of you will be busy." Tang Xi smiled.

Nian Tong said: "I'm not afraid of being tired, I'm just worried that I won't be able to help, and... I can't figure out the purpose of the Red Sleeve Villa stationed in Kunlun, I'm afraid there will be some surprises. ”

Tang Xi also nodded and agreed: "The situation is compelling, Jisheng and they are there, no matter what, we have to go and see." ”

"By the way, master, what do you think, how about Qu still and Jisheng, are they worthy?" Nian Tong changed the topic, changed his mood, and suddenly looked like a gossip.

Tang Xi shook his head: "Ji Sheng is light on the surface, but in fact, he is quite scheming, and although Qu still has extraordinary skills, he is not deep in the world, and he is very simple. The two of them are together, and nothing good will come of it. ”

Nian Tong disagreed: "One is simple, the other is deep, don't the two just complement each other?" Master, do you think that two people with opposite identities and opposite personalities are not qualified to be together? ”

"That's... There may be exceptions. Tang Xi's voice was a little softer, after all, he and Nian Tong had a master-apprentice relationship.

Following the footprints or wheel prints left by the driving of not many people who came and went, Nian Tong and Tang Xi walked on the road to Kunlun one mile and one away.

Kunlun Mountain is high and far away, and finally finished the mountain road, the two of them saw a river that is not particularly wide, but the river is turbulent, although Tang Xi has a good water nature, but when he sees such a rapid river, he will inevitably hesitate, not to mention that Nian Tong's water quality is not good, he can't take risks.

Turning around along the river, he only found a small boat, and he didn't even see a single household, and Niantong felt very melancholy.

"Do you want to use this boat to cross the water?" Nian Tong looked at Tang Xi in embarrassment.

Tang Xi looked around and said, "If you have a pair of wings at the moment, you can fly over." ”

Nian Tong sighed very helplessly: "Master, can't we use light work here?" ”

Tang Xi shook his head: "I've heard them say before that there are a lot of whirlpools under this river, and it doesn't hurt to work lightly on the river water normally, if your toes touch the water, there is a great possibility that you will be sucked into the whirlpool, and when the time comes..."

Nian Tong got goosebumps on one arm: "Is it so scary..."

"It's autumn, and it's already cold here, and if you don't drown, you have to freeze to death in the water. I don't know where this waterway leads, and I don't know how long it is. Now there is only this ship. ”

Nian Tong inspected the boat, except for a little dilapidated, there was really nothing wrong, she looked at the sun that was about to sink, and said, "In this case, then we will get on the boat and cross the river now." ”

Tang Xi also carefully checked it again, confirmed that there was no problem, picked up the oars in the boat, and helped Niantong to get on the boat with one hand.

"You sit in the boat, sit tight, hold the edge of the boat with your hands, don't distract me."

Nian Tong nodded sensibly, while helping Tang Xi watch the movements around. After getting on the boat, even if you sit down and lower your center of gravity, your body will still shake as the waves of water come in waves. Nian Tong looked at Tang Xi who was standing with some concern, but he seemed to be standing very steady, and Nian Tong felt that this was really a kind of ability.

"Don't look at me." Tang Xi suddenly said, "......"

"What?" Nian Tong looked inexplicable.

"I'll be embarrassed."

Nian Tong was shocked, she, what did her master say just now, he would be embarrassed? Just a few glances at him... Nian Tong wanted to refute something, and thought that safety first, it was better not to collide with him.

The wind was strong, Tang Xi looked at the shore that was about to arrive not far away, and suddenly there were a lot of things he wanted to say in his heart. People are like ants, they are powerless in front of a small river, if... He said that if Nian Tong really had an accident in the big war in the near future, he wouldn't even have a chance to show her his heart.

"Ninki." Tang Xi spoke.

"What's wrong?" Nian Tong glanced up at him, his expression was very serious, in short, it was not like the usual appearance on the face of a person like him.

"I... I like you. ”

"Huh?" Nian Tong was a little distracted just now, and the wind was strong, she didn't hear what Tang Xi said, and just wanted to listen carefully, she suddenly saw something with black arrows flying in front of her.

She looked at it calmly, hurriedly stood up and took out her sword, and said, "If there is anything to say later, you can paddle well, and I will block it." ”

Tang Xi also noticed that something was wrong behind him, although he was a little discouraged Niantong didn't hear his courageous confession, but the top priority was to cross the river quickly and reach Kunlun.

The wind and waves hit wave after wave, and Nian Tong kept waving his sword to block the oncoming sharp arrows. Originally, on the flat ground, this was still very easy, but now on the boat that couldn't even stand steadily, Nian Tong felt that it was gradually a little difficult.

"You hold on, it's almost there!" Tang Xi shouted at Nian Tong.

Nian Tong didn't have the heart to answer, but swung the sword in his hand harder. The dense arrows hit like a heavy rain, and she tried to keep herself calm, after all, if she really fell from here, it might really be a corpse without bones, for herself, and for the sake of the master, she had to work hard.

The rain of arrows suddenly stopped, and Nian Tong remained vigilant.

"These people are menacing, and they have to kill us." Nian Tong said.

"Can't be careless." Tang Xi replied briefly.

"yes, I know."

The boat finally landed, and Tang Xi jumped ashore and stretched out his hand to Niantong.

Nian Tong breathed a sigh of relief, and also stretched out his hand, suddenly, a sharp arrow jumped from the side, Nian Tong hurriedly dodged back, the action was too big, the whole person took two steps back, the hull of the boat shook, her center of gravity was unstable, and she fell heavily on the boat. And that arrow also went into the water.

Tang Xi didn't dare to act rashly, he was afraid that if he rushed on the boat, it would cause the boat to shake even more, so he had to lean forward and say, "Be careful, don't move too much, be careful to move forward." ”

Nian Tong was a little frightened just now, but finally came back to his senses, nodded, slowly stood up, and took two steps forward.

"Niantong, be careful!" Tang Xi suddenly shouted, stepped forward and knocked out the flying arrow with his weapon, but the huge force that suddenly came made the boat and the water wave violently tossed at the same time, Nian Tong grabbed the edge in the boat, and the water splashed up, soaking the boat, Nian Tong's hand suddenly became slippery, and there was no way to firmly grasp the edge of the boat.

Suddenly a wave hit, the water overturned the boat, Niantong was immersed in the water, before she had time to stick her head out, the turbulent water seemed to be pushing her away, she stretched her hand out of the water, but there was no way to calm down, she could only be slapped up by the splash little by little, the water poured into her ears and nose, she felt very uncomfortable.

Tang Xi was so anxious that he couldn't do it, but at this moment, there were more arrows, and while he looked back at Nian Tong anxiously, he was forced to sharpen more and more arrows. He gritted his teeth and jumped into the water. What is more important than his apprentice?

But there was a faint pain behind him, Tang Xi frowned, as if he smelled a fishy sweet smell in the water, he felt that the strength in his body seemed to be slackening, but he was still unwilling to give up. Finally, he felt as if his last strength had been used up, his consciousness was blurred, and his arm went limp.

"Nintori—" he was still reading her name.

Qu still walked in with the medicine, and Ji Sheng was giving Tang Xi the medicine.

"How's he doing?" Qu still asked.

"I've bandaged him, and the wound is fine, but—" Ji Sheng stared and said, "The arrow is poisonous." ”

"Huh?" Qu was still shocked, "That poison, does it matter?" ”

Ji Sheng shook his head: "The water has diluted his poison a little, and it will not be fatal, but in the future, he needs to be more attentive." ”

"It's good over there..."Qu still breathed a sigh of relief, "Tang Xi is so powerful, who can harm him?" ”

Ji Sheng said, "I guess it's for his apprentice." ”

"I don't know if Qin Sang has found Niantong..."Qu is still full of worry, Niantong is her good friend, she once saved her from fire and water, and now Niantong's whereabouts are unknown, she is really worried.

A group of them arrived at the foot of Kunlun Mountain, but Kunlun was heavily guarded, because the daughter of the King of Kunlun was held hostage, so Kunlun's entry and exit were strictly checked. They thought that they were here to help the King of Kunlun, not to mention the hospitality, so they would not be turned away, but Kunlun now seemed to be controlled by the Red Sleeve Villa, so they had to rest at the foot of Kunlun first and wait for the opportunity.

The time didn't come, but it waited for Tang Xi. When they found Tang Xi, Tang Xi was washed ashore by the river, his back was covered with blood, and the whole person was half dead. But after looking around for a long time, they didn't see Niantong, and it seemed that Tang Xi's injuries were very serious, so everyone had to bring Tang Xi back for treatment first, and let Qin Sang go to the bottom of the river to find Niantong.

Ji Sheng said: "I seem to think that this string is all designed. ”

"Yes..."

"Hmm..." Tang Xi's eyes moved slightly.

"Are you awake?" Ji Sheng asked.

Tang Xi opened his eyes, confused for a moment, as if thinking of something, suddenly sat up, pulled the wound on his back, and frowned painfully.

"You're hurt, be careful." Ji Sheng said.

"Where's Niantong?" He asked.

Qu still said: "Don't worry, Qin Sang has already gone to look for it, we saw you by the river and brought you back first." You're seriously injured, so take care of it. ”

Tang Xi lifted the quilt and was about to get out of bed, but was stopped by Ji Sheng.

"You can't go right now."

"But Niantong's whereabouts are still unknown, and you let me lie here in peace?" Tang Xi asked.

"What's the use of you? If you can't find her, you'll have an accident, and we'll save you again. Your injuries are not the most important thing, but you are poisoned. ”

"Poisoned?" Tang Xi looked up.
