The battle on both sides was already about to come to an end, and when they were defeated, and then Jinyiwei was killed, they could have a fisherman to profit, who would have expected to kill halfway to bite the gold.

Who is this person? Why did you interrupt the duel between Ye Gucheng and Ximen Fuxue?

Under a palace in the southwest corner of Fengtian Temple, a person appeared behind the middle pillar, and it was Zhu Yijun of Mingshenzong. Although there was an unexpected factor, things have developed to this point, and there is no longer any way to stop, only to improvise, and wait to see the intention of the person before making a decision.

…………

Lin Xian'er said everything to Yi Xiaofeng's heart, with tacit understanding, it is the so-called heart that has a good heart.

Yi Xiaofeng had a solemn look between his eyebrows, and said coldly: "These are not the most important things, if he is not kind-hearted, I will kill him mercilessly!" ”

In order to find out the true relationship between Ye Sanniang and Ye Gucheng, Yi Xiaofeng and Lin Xian'er stayed at Yuelai Restaurant that night.

Ye Sanniang also showed her face once during the day, and after dinner, she went back to her room, and then asked someone to boil hot water for her to bathe, Yi Xiaofeng swore that when he went, he definitely happened to catch up with Ye Sanniang who happened to be undressing, not that he deliberately peeped.

The woman didn't go out the rest of the night. Tomorrow is the day of the decisive battle of the Lantern Festival, don't they need to do something one night in advance?

The more abnormal it is, the more problematic it is, but Yi Xiaofeng knew that it was useless to keep it any longer, so Yi Xiaofeng went back to his room at the beginning of the third watch.

"Could it be that we're thinking too much?" Lin Xian'er asked.

"No, it's possible that they found out that we were spying on her, or maybe the preparations they have to do have been completed, just waiting for tomorrow night to act!"

"In that case, let's get a good night's sleep, and go into the palace early tomorrow to investigate again, what do you say?" Lin Xian'er took off her coat and went to bed.

"Lady, there will be a big battle tomorrow, why don't we do a good warm-up exercise tonight!"

"I don't want it, ahaha, it's so itchy...... Stop it...... Ahaha......"

……

Inside the Imperial Palace, the Imperial Study.

"Are you two ready for what I have explained?"

Zhu Yijun's face was cold, his eyes lit up, it was a somewhat crazy bloodthirsty light, and the two people standing in the audience didn't dare to breathe.

"Back to the emperor, the servants are all ready, just waiting for your order." Liu Tong replied confidently.

"Back to the emperor, the dead soldiers trained by the minions are absolutely heaven and earth, no matter how high their martial arts are, they will never want to escape!" Gao Huai said to the emperor respectfully, and glanced at Liu Tong provocatively, and it could be seen from his eyes that he was full of disdain.

"It's better to do what you say, if there's any trouble tonight, you two come and see you!"

"Obey the order, the minion will go all out and live up to Longen!"

"The slave has done his best for the emperor and died!"

"I don't care how you usually calculate with each other, but I don't want to see anyone declare a personal vendetta in this matter, which will ruin my big affairs, otherwise I will castrate the two of you again, and even the nine clans, do you hear?"

Zhu Yijun has always turned a blind eye to the open and secret battles between them, as long as they are not too excessive, he will let them go.

"Slaves obey!" This time, Liu Tong and Gao Huai spoke in unison, and the tacit understanding was abnormal.

"Okay, don't talk nonsense, go down and prepare!"

Zhu Yijun drank the two of them impatiently, if it weren't for the two of them who were still useful, they would have formed a party in private, trying to control the government, thinking that I was really a mediocre waste? After this time, whether it succeeds or not, both of them must die.

During the Lantern Festival, thousands of homes are brightly lit, this is a day of reunion, but at this time at the top of the Forbidden City of the Imperial Palace, thousands of people in the martial arts gather here, just for the once-in-a-century battle of the two peerless swordsmen.

"Long Longjiu, how many gold medals did the emperor give you?" Goldbeard's pair of thief eyes were rolling around, although there were doubts and displeasure in his heart, but he did not show any resentment on the surface, and he was very cunning.

"The emperor only gave me eight gold medals, and I sent out six, Mu Daoren, Wu Daodao, honest monk, Tianshan Erzi, and one side of each of you, and the remaining two I originally wanted to blow snow for Ximen The woman and Yu Ruyi, who knew that they didn't want either." Long Longjiu said.

"Do you know that now the city is full of turmoil, and everyone says that there is a gold medal, and you can enter the palace to watch the battle of the century."

"Don't worry, the gold medal was made by Nirvana, and he can tell the truth at a glance."

"I'm relieved."

At the beginning of the moon, a round of bright moon, round as a jade plate, hanging high above the south sky, under the moon before the flower, what a beautiful thing it should be to sing to the wine!

At this time, there were already a lot of people outside the palace, and the door was like a city.

"I'm gold again, hurry up and let me in."

"This side of mine is a real gold medal, I bought it for five million taels, I am definitely qualified to go in and watch the battle, right?"

……

Thousands of people with gold medals in their hands clamored to enter the palace to watch the battle, and Ouchi's guards had to stand by to prevent riots.

When the four imperial guards saw Long Longjiu coming, they immediately found the backbone of the main body, and stepped forward to ask: "Long Longjiu, now that so many people are holding gold medals to enter, what do you say?" ”

"It's simple, I only issued eight gold medals, find Nirvana to check, and the fake gold medal will be blown away immediately, otherwise it will be punished for the crime of rebellion!" After Long Longjiu finished speaking, he entered the palace gate, and the method himself had already said, and that was the matter of the Ouchi guards later.

On the roof of Fengtian Temple, two figures, one black and one white, stand opposite each other, and everyone's eyes are all focused on the two of them.

"Ximen blowing snow, my sword is called Juque, three feet and nine inches, cast by meteorites outside the sky, it is one of the five famous swords of Master Ou Yezi, a sword-casting master in the Spring and Autumn Period." Ye Gucheng proudly showed the giant sword in his hand, and the demeanor of a master was like an isolated pillar of the sky.

"Three feet and eight inches, cast from the cold iron of the Western Regions, no worse than yours."

Ximen blows snow and is cold on the outside and hot on the inside, he has never liked to talk nonsense, cherishes words like gold, and does things cleanly, and he doesn't like to beat around the bush, so he directly drew his sword after speaking.

Ye Gucheng strangely did not draw his sword, but held the sword in front of his chest, "Ximen Blowing Snow, before the competition, I want to ask you a question." ”

"Say."

"What did you become a swordsman for?" Ye Gucheng turned to look at the particularly round and huge moon in the sky.

Ximen Fuxue was stunned for a moment, his eyes were far away, as if he recalled the story of a long time ago, and only then did he say quietly: "Killing people is a sacred and beautiful thing, so every time I kill someone, I will fast and bathe."

There will always be treacherous people in this world who cannot be killed, when I plunge a sword into a person's throat, and see the blood bloom under the sword, I see the splendor of the sword like a brilliant firework blooming, that kind of beauty is nothing compared. ”

There is a loneliness that cannot be described because it comes from the soul. There is a kind of person who has come close to the realm of God because he is ruthless.

"The world says that Simon blows snow not snow, but the blood on his sword, and it is indeed worthy of his name! Is there really a person in this world who is born to be a ruthless swordsman? ”

"Perhaps, but that only exists in legends."

"Do you have a beloved woman? Or have you ever loved someone sincerely? Ye Gucheng asked.

"I thought I wasn't going to fall in love with anyone until I met her. What about you, have you ever really loved someone? ”

The happy smile that flashed on Simon Blowing Snow's face quickly turned indifferent and cold, maybe he wasn't sure in his heart whether the path he had chosen was the right one?

"Me? Even if there is, what? Perhaps, I don't deserve love in my life! Full of vicissitudes, this is very different from the free and proud Ye Gucheng in the past, which makes Ximen Chuixue a little wondering.

"What are the two of them doing? Chatting? We don't spend so much money to catch up with them. ”

"It's like, hey, why don't you start yet?"

"Hurry up, hurry up, don't waste everyone's time!"

……

Ye Gucheng looked at the noisy crowd below and laughed noncommittally, while Ximen Fuxue turned his head to look at the bright moon in the night sky, and raised his sword at Ye Gucheng.
