Chapter Eighty-Nine: The Rainstorm
Cheering up, she said to herself, since she has entered this road of no return, let's try to do more.
She walked towards the villa.
Qin Sang said with a bitter face: "Do you really want to leave me alone?" ”
Mingluo sensitively felt that this sentence seemed to express her disgust for her, she pouted and said, "Hmph, you take him away, I can be alone." ”
Ji Sheng couldn't cry or laugh: "Qin Sang, you stayed not only to escort Ming Luo back, but also to protect Kunlun." ”
Qin Sang lowered his head and said, "Okay..."
"Miss Mingluo, you have to be careful to protect yourself in the future, don't go out and walk around at will anymore, the situation is different from before." Ji Sheng told Ming Luodao.
Although Mingluo is arrogant, she is also a reasonable person, she nodded.
Ji Sheng said, "Alright, let's go." ”
Tang Xi was waiting for this sentence, he was like an arrow, he was impatient with these etiquette and social interactions, if it weren't for the special situation, he might really not be too lazy to wait for a few quarters of an hour.
Qu still quietly asked Ji Sheng: "Why did you leave Qin Sang?" ”
Ji Sheng glanced at her: "Do you want to leave you?" ”
"No, no, no..." still shook its head into a rattle.
Ji Sheng smiled: "What are you nervous about?" You're a girl, it's not good to leave you alone in Kunlun, where the sky is high and the water is far away, and..."
"And what?" Qu still gossiped and asked.
"I think Qin Sang is too pitiful to be alone, find him a companion." Ji Sheng couldn't help but laugh.
“... Hmm..."Qu still choked, "Then, why don't you go and be with that Mingluo girl?" ”
"Me?" Ji Sheng seemed surprised, "I don't seem to think about myself. ”
Qu still doesn't know whether he should be happy or unhappy, happy that Jisheng is not a man who is interested in women, and if he is unhappy, he may not necessarily look down on himself.
Tang Xi listened to them quietly on the side, and suddenly interjected:
"When I find Niantong, I'll confess to her."
"In such a hurry?" "You don't think she'll be scared." ”
"I was scared before, but I can't wait anymore, I'm afraid that she will be snatched away, and I'm even more afraid... There is no chance later. Tang Xi's expression was very solemn.
"Does she like you?" Qu still asked.
"Maybe I like it..."Tang Xi thought that she was drunk and kissed herself, and suddenly felt a little warm in her heart.
He blushed. Qu still said to Ji Sheng seriously.
Ji Sheng nodded: "Mm-hmm, I saw it." ”
Tang Xi rolled his eyes.
The three of them got into the carriage, and Tang Xi personally drove the horse back to Jianshun.
However, the day was not as good as expected, and the carriage traveled for a day, and when it came to a certain mountain, it rained heavily, and several large stones fell down, blocking the way, but the heavy rain did not mean to stop at all.
Tang Xi's head is very big, but this is a natural disaster, not a man-made disaster, and he can't find a place to complain, the rain is heavy, and he can't do light work, and he can't stay in the carriage all the time, in case he smashes down a big stone, it's not for fun.
A long dragon-like lightning appeared in the sky, and with a "bang", the torrential rain was like a note, interweaving the space into a continuous rain net. The celestial statue cracked through countless openings, and the torrential rain converged into a waterfall that poured down.
Ji Sheng also frowned rarely, this weather was rare and weird, as if he had the intention to stop them, he looked at Tang Xi, until he must have been very anxious in his heart.
Sometimes, the feeling of powerlessness is really the worst.
This rain may be the last sound of this summer, after this rain, it is completely autumn, and the weather instantly turns cooler.
Niantong looked at the rain outside the window, for a long time, it was indeed a long time since I had seen such a heavy rain, this rain seemed to swallow the whole world, a cool breeze blew in, she wrapped her clothes, the rain splashed on her hands, she sighed, closed the window.
Xu Yungui knocked on the door, Nian Tong stepped forward and opened the door, lowered his head, and whispered: "Owner." ”
Xu Yungui raised his eyebrows, walked straight in, sat down on the wooden chair in front of the table, and said, "Are you still used to living here?" ”
"Well, it's all good."
"It's raining heavily outside."
Nian Tong was a little strange why he suddenly said this, so he only responded.
Xu Yungui continued: "When I was born, it also rained so much... I heard that my original name was Yugui, but when I grew up, I felt embarrassed, so I changed it to Yungui. ”
Nian Tong listened silently. I don't know why he suddenly talked about this, but he felt that Xu Yungui was not so difficult to get along with.
"The clouds return, the clouds return and look forward to the return of the clouds, covering the haze." Nian Tong said.
Xu Yungui glanced at her with strange eyes, but quickly withdrew his gaze.
"You're very qualified, and it's good for us to use you." Xu Yungui said.
Nian Tong smirked, not knowing what to say, and some of the good feelings he had just now were suddenly gone.
"Come with me, I'll show you something."
"Hmm." Nian Tong said.
Nian Tong followed him to a secret passage, where there were many old ancient books, all of which were some practical cultivation scriptures, different from the rules that Nian Tong had learned before.
"You can pick a few books and read them."
"Give it to me?" Nian Tong was a little surprised, these cheats are extremely precious at a glance, so they were given to her so easily?
Xu Yungui nodded: "Although you have high qualifications, your martial arts are too simple, and you must learn to be smart and use different tricks on the battlefield." ”
Nian Tong took the two books in front of him and said, "Thank you." ”
Xu Yungui didn't have any expression.
"That," Nian Tong tentatively spoke, "can you tell me what we're going to do next?" Belch... If you don't believe me, you don't have to say it. ”
Xu Yungui chuckled lightly and said, "I might as well tell you first, why I stationed so many people in Kunlun." ”
"Because... I? Nian Tong asked.
"It's not just because of you." Xu Yungui shook his head, "Everyone only knows that half a year later, and now there is no half a year, and that big battle is to compete for the land of Hongye Ridge." Although Hongye Ridge has always been under the jurisdiction of the imperial court, but my Red Sleeve Villa is close to Hongye Ridge, and most of Hongye Ridge has been used by me for many years, at this juncture, the more relaxed I behave, the easier it is for the other party to take it lightly, and when I react, it is too late. As for why Kunlun... First, because Kunlun Mountain is high and far away, it will take at least three days to go back and forth, and they will not have time to come back, and secondly, because the King of Kunlun has a daughter, who is a handle that we can use, and third, Kunlun is located in an important place, if this move can get Kunlun, it is also an unexpected joy, if not, there is no loss. ”
Nian Tong felt a chill behind her, she didn't expect all this to be so well arranged: "Can I ask you, my master..."
"Your master was hit by an arrow."
"What?" The book in Niantong's hand fell to the ground with a click.
"But he was saved, Qin Sang and they saved him." Xu Yungui said, "Your reaction seems to be a little big. ”
Nian Tong breathed a sigh of relief: "It's good to save it... He's my master, so it's not surprising that I'm more responsive, right? ”
"Although it was saved, but," Xu Yungui glanced at Niantong, "the arrow is poisonous." Although the toxicity is not strong, it can accumulate over time and can be harmful to the body. ”
"You...," Nian Tong took a deep breath, "Although I am subordinate to the Red Sleeve Villa, he is my master after all, please give me the antidote." ”
"It could have been given to you, but wasn't he already used by the imperial court at the martial arts conference? We can't take this risk, he is a strong martial artist, and it is not a bad thing for us to have less trouble. ”
"But!" What else does Nian Tong want to say.
Xu Yungui interrupted her: "Okay, don't be shackled by these feelings, in a short time, Tang Xi will be fine." ”
Nian Tong gritted his teeth, if it weren't for her, the master wouldn't have gone to the martial arts conference, and if she hadn't fallen into the water, the master wouldn't have been in a hurry. Therefore, in a certain way, the master's poisoning was all because of her.
She must help Tang Xi get the antidote!
Nian Tong kept up with Xu Yungui's pace.
Qu still stayed in the carriage, while Ji Sheng and Tang Xi got out of the carriage, and the rain didn't seem to stop at all, it was still extraordinarily heavy, the sky seemed to be opened a big opening, and the rain just fell with a bang.
The rain hit the faces of the two people, Tang Xi's face was solemn, looking at the road blocked by stones in front of him, the mountain on the left, the cliff on the right, the surging river below the cliff, the narrow road that could only accommodate two carriages, the muddy water hit by the heavy rain kept flowing down, and then flowed down the cliff.
Ji Sheng said: "It's not a way to go on like this. Let's find a place to hide for a while. ”
Tang Xi shook his head, but walked to the big stone blocking the way and touched it with his hand. The rain had already soaked the stone and made it slippery, Tang Xi frowned, pushed hard, and his hand suddenly slipped away, and a streak of blood was washed away by the rain just as soon as it came out.
"Tang Xi!" Ji Sheng shouted, "Are you going to move this stone away?" ”
Tang Xi didn't speak, he continued to muster his strength, gritted his teeth and pushed the stone hard, Ji Sheng couldn't move, sighed heavily, and stepped forward to help. Pushing this boulder is not something that one person can do.
"I didn't realize that you like Niantong so much." Because of the heavy rain, Ji Sheng almost shouted this sentence.
Tang Xi was a little surprised that he said this at this time, "If you like someone one day, you will do the same." Do you like someone else? ”
Ji Sheng said: "No, feelings are just a burden that drags people down. ”
Everyone has their own ideas, Tang Xi didn't dissuade anything, just said: "I used to think so, maybe when you meet someone, everything will be different." ”
Ji Sheng raised his eyebrows and didn't say anything more, just condensed the strength of his palm.
