eighteen

The moon was hazy, the candlesticks on the table were piled up with hills of wax tears, and the flickering candlelight was dim and faint.

Yanyun frowned deeply, and the scenes of the past penetrated into her dreams, chasing, killing, hating, and exhausting, attacking her one by one.

The short and tight nightmare, the dream was overwhelming blood red, the tense atmosphere weighed down her breathlessly, her limbs wanted to move but she was fascinated by the nightmare, unable to move.

It was late at night, and she was finally freed from the nightmare, and she suddenly opened her eyes and looked at the top tent in a daze. Deng Yuan's face flashed in her mind, Yang Xun's laughter echoed in her ears, she clutched the sheets tightly with both hands, thinking of Sigong and Changyu, thinking of the Xingfeng Wei and the people of the East Four Elements who were killed in front of the castle tower that day, thinking of her cowardice and incompetence in the past ten years, thinking of Deng Yuan and Yang Xun's scheming, she bit her lip, and the unwillingness and hatred in her heart were like the surging tide in this dark night.

When the last spark of the candle is extinguished in the night, the moonlight pours in through the window, bringing the shadows of the trees to the ground.

The sound of scurry, agile footsteps came from the hallway, almost fleeting. Yanyun sat up vigilantly and silently moved to the door, pressing her ear against the crack in the door.

Someone outside the door climbed to the roof by the railing of the corridor.

Yanyun was hesitating to go out, but he heard the door of the next room suddenly open, and the people inside seemed to be following the people in the corridor before, and they also ghostly climbed onto the roof.

She wondered in her heart, why did there be two martial arts masters in this inn one day.

At this moment, the window was suddenly opened, and a dark shadow flashed in. Yan Yun immediately moved quickly to the table, picked up the vase on the table and quickly threw it towards the black shadow in the corner of the wall by the window, but he didn't hear the sound of the vase breaking, and the person was able to catch the vase so quickly and quietly.

"Shh A voice came from the corner.

I saw the black shadow slowly walking to the window, and under the moonlight, Yanyun saw that this person was actually the gourd he met in the Flying Crane Tower during the day.

Hulu also saw that the person in the dark was the woman dressed as a man he met in Feihe Tower today, and he was slightly stunned.

"It's you!" Yanyun lowered her voice, and through the moonlight she looked at the man with the same surprised face, only to see him put aside the vase she had just thrown, and then quickly closed the window.

"What are you going to do?!" Yanyun took two steps back and looked around, looking for a sharp weapon.

"Don't worry, girl, I have no malicious intentions, I just borrowed the girl's room for a while." Hulu saw that she seemed to be about to attack, so he quickly explained.

Just then, footsteps came from the rooftop.

The gourd screamed badly, and immediately ran towards the door, but thought of something, looked at her, pushed the door open, and dragged her out of the door. Yanyun was about to let him go, but he heard a "whoosh" sound, and a leather whip with a sharp blade tied to his tail stabbed at them like lightning.

Seeing this, the gourd pushed away the wild goose clouds, and the whip passed between the two of them, sinking into the root of the wall. In the next moment, a black figure moved in front of the gourd, trying to lock his throat.

The gourd snorted coldly and dodged sideways. When the man in black saw that he had avoided him, he drew his whip and turned around with a throw, which chased after the gourd like a swimming viper. Hulu looked at the blade with a faint green cold light at the tail of the whip, and a chill flashed in his eyes, and he stepped on the wooden railing in the corridor, turned over and jumped on top of the leather whip, and once again dodged the cruel moves of the man in black.

The man in black drew his whip back and was about to attack again, but he heard a small voice from the side: "Master." ”

The man in black looked at him, and was stunned when his eyes fell on the woman standing in the shadows.

The dark clouds in the sky dispersed, the moonlight was cold, and Yanyun timidly looked at the man in black in front of him, although he stood against the light, Yanyun still recognized him, and the black bone whip made of snake king's skin he used. He was the most powerful assassin in the Sixteen Elements, and he was the Yunbian Ke who taught her martial arts for ten years.

The gourd standing on the wooden fence looked at this sudden scene with a smile, and the next moment he immediately jumped over the wooden fence and disappeared into the night.

Yunbian Ke frowned when he saw that this person had escaped by taking advantage of his carelessness, but he did not catch up, but turned to look at Yanyun.

"Master." Yanyun hurried over.

Yun Bianke looked pale when he saw Yanyun, thinking that she was seriously injured that day, his eyebrows tightened and he asked sharply, "How are your injuries?" Why is there only one person here, the Wind Guard? ”

Since the battle of Danqingfeng, Yanyun thought that he would never see his master again, but he didn't expect to see him here today, and his heart was sour and happy.

"I acted separately from Tanlong, Xingfengwei has suffered serious losses this time, and there are still many matters that need to be arranged by Tanlong." Yan Yun looked at the bone whip in Master's hand, remembered his pursuit of the gourd just now, and asked, "Why is Master here?" ”

"You can't protect yourself now, and you still have the leisure to take care of your teacher?" Yunbianke glanced at Yanyun, and saw that her face was gloomy and miserable, presumably the apprentice who had never been involved in the world must have suffered some hardships this time, and said: "You are alone now, what are your plans?" ”

"I want to go to Mobei in vain." Yanyun said.

Yunbianke sneered: "Want to find Xue Jingrong?" ”

Yanyun was silent.

The name almost came out of Yunbianke's nose, and he said: "This master of the Northern Four Elements is probably beyond the ordinary, and there is no trace of Danqing Peak's accident, so most of them must be dead." ”

"In any case, we can't afford to give up this opportunity." Yanyun refused to give up, but seeing the master's contemptuous look, he didn't know what the origin was.

"I'm afraid that this northbound lord will eventually refuse you to leave the door." Yunbian Ke heard Yanyun's persistence.

"Why did Master say that?" Yanyun felt strange, even if the northbound lord had a withdrawn temperament, but as long as she Huo Yanyun lived for one day, she would still be the lord of the sixteenth line, and the master of the line saw his subordinates, what reason did his subordinates have not seen?

This time, Yunbianke did not answer, and looked at the dark night outside with heavy eyes.

The atmosphere suddenly became silent.

Yanyun didn't know what to say, these days Deng Yuan and Yang Xun must have ordered her to be exterminated, and all those who were in contact with her would definitely die. She looked at the master, the master has always been idle and uninhibited, and has always looked sideways at those people who hide knives in the open and secret battles and laughs in the southwest two divisions, and now the traitor villain is victorious, I don't know if there is a killing order for the master.

"Aren't you worried about being a teacher?" Yunbian Ke said a word to break the apprentice's heart.

Yan Yun buried his head: "The apprentice is not good, not only did he fail to glorify the master, but he also put the master in danger, which is really ashamed." ”

"Hmph, don't be arrogant, little apprentice, you dare to go into the Longtan Tiger's Den alone at night to get medicine for the dragon, if the former master knows that his daughter has such courage and courage under the spring, he must also be blind." A smile appeared on Yunbianke's mouth, and he was dyed a little cold by the moonlight.

The top assassins in the world are all from the Sixteenth Element, and the leader of these cold-blooded killers is actually a person who can still smile, perhaps this is also the reason why Master is different from other assassins. Master once said that being an assassin is ruthless, and she has always kept it in mind. But she also remembered vividly that whenever Master said these things, he would laugh at herself, saying that he didn't know how much to do.

"There are still important things to do for the teacher, the old ghost of the iron has already sent someone from the assassination division to Jiangling City to arrest you, if you don't want to die, leave here quickly." Yun Bianke's expression was restrained, and he said with a serious face.

Yan Yun was stunned, she didn't expect the people from the assassination department to know her whereabouts so quickly.

Facing the master, Yanyun wanted to say something precious, but it was like a fish in her throat.

Finally, she slowly knelt down and silently kowtowed three times.

Yunbianke looked at Yanyun, who was about to face the uncertain road ahead alone, and hoped that the wind and rain in the rivers and lakes would eventually make her strong and steel.
