Ye Hongjian's body seemed to tremble slightly, and her red lips opened as if she wanted to say something, but she didn't know where to start.

After repeating this two or three times, the trembling of her body became more and more intense, and she bit her lip and looked at Xu Han.

But after Xu Han said this, he lowered his head and was silent.

Roar!

But at this moment, there was a sudden roar behind them.

It's Ah Huang's voice!

Xu Han raised his head suddenly, something happened to Qin Keqing, he and Ye Hongjian glanced at each other, both of them recovered from what happened before, and the two of them didn't hesitate for a moment, and they rushed towards the direction of the camp.

The campfire in the camp has been extinguished.

Xuan'er's eyes widened, her amber pupils were narrowly stretched, and the hair on her body stood up like sharp needles.

The whimper's body became huge, and his mouth couldn't help but let out a low roar.

And Ah Huang, who had turned into a giant ape, had already fallen to the ground, and a huge blood hole in his chest was shocking.

Not far away, the figure under the black robe took steps like a ghost, step by step, step by step, towards Qin Keqing, who also fell to the ground and had a pale face.

In this scene where Xu Han and Ye Hongjian left, there was a battle here—a completely one-sided and devastating battle.

A sword stretched out from the cuff of the black robe and hit Qin Keqing's throat, and Qin Keqing couldn't move.

She looked up at the black robe, its face shrunk under the hood blurred, only the eyes wrapped in anger and struggle twinkling in the sparse starlight.

"Who the hell are you!" Qin Keqing knew that she seemed to have no way out, she gritted her teeth and plucked up the courage to ask.

She didn't understand why the black-robed man was like a maggot on tarsal bones, always following behind her, wanting to kill her at every opportunity.

The black-robed man loosened the sword in his hand again, and the cold and sharp blade cut a bloody mark on Qin Keqing's neck, as long as he was willing, he could easily take Qin Keqing's life in the next breath.

But he didn't.

His hands trembled a little, and his eyes flickered more and more.

He opened his mouth and asked in a hoarse voice, "Do you have any other way, don't you give it a try?"

Qin Keqing, who was ready to be killed, was stunned, but she quickly reacted and understood what the man in black meant.

Then Qin Keqing shook his head decisively and said, "I won't do that again." ”

When the black robe heard this, a sneer suddenly came out of his mouth under the hood: "Why can't you do it? Not only can you do it, but you can also do it better than anyone else, more ruthless than anyone else!"

Qin Keqing was silent in the face of the black robe's mockery, she stared at the flickering gaze under the black robe, and looked at the scene for a long time before she said again: "Actually... Do you want to save him?"

The black-robed body shook at that moment, and his tone suddenly became a little louder: "What?"

Probably because of some horror, the two words blurted out at this time were not as hoarse as they were usually.

Of course, Qin Keqing didn't notice this, she seemed to have figured out something, she was no longer as frightened as before, and her tone was a lot calmer: "I have no grievances with you, but you don't hesitate to kill me at the cost of your life, I have always been puzzled before." Until I saw the ancient demon in the Sword Tomb..."

"If I really get to the point where I will be devoured by that monster, with Xu Gongzi's temperament, I will never die without help. The power of an ancient demon has made him almost unable to help himself, if he devours the demonic energy in my body in order to save me..."

Speaking of this, Qin Keqing paused, her body actually took the initiative to take a step forward, and she said again: "If it weren't for me, how could the dragon and snake twin method harm him." I don't want to be a burden to him anymore, so you can do it..."

The sword stretched out by the black robe was subconsciously retracted at that time, and he was about to say something more, but at that moment, two figures suddenly jumped out from behind Qin Keqing.

The phoenix covered in fire roared, and the black divine sword summoned three thousand sword shadows.

At that time, two killing moves roared and went straight to the face of the man in black.

Seeing this, the black robe didn't dare to hold it up in his heart, so he could only hurriedly put away his sword and retreat, and at the same time summoned the sword intent in his body to disperse these two killing moves, so that he could stabilize his body.

"It's you again!" Xu Han fell in front of Qin Keqing, looked at the black robe with cold eyes, and Ye Hongjian, who also arrived at that time, picked up Qin Keqing, who had fallen to the ground, and asked her about her condition.

Xu Han glanced back at Qin Keqing behind him, and after making sure that she was only injured a little, but there was no major problem, then he calmly frowned and asked again, "Who are you?"

Rao is Xu Han is also bored with this person, he doesn't know the origin of the other party, but the other party seems to know him well, and even not only him but also the exercises of the people around him are all at his fingertips, and as if the ghost is not gone, he repeatedly shoots to find his trouble.

Compared with the previous saber-rattling, this time he was hit by the rescue of Xu Han and Ye Hongjian and broke his conspiracy, but he did not fight Xu Han again as before, but just stood in place, looking at Qin Keqing behind Xu Han with complicated eyes.

Then, he said to Qin Keqing: "His sword path body has been sanctified, I am no longer his opponent, remember what you said today, don't be a burden to anyone." ”

At that moment, the man turned around and stepped into the darkness.

His body gradually merged with the darkness at that time, and disappeared in an instant, only his hoarse and low voice was still at that time, echoing back and forth in the ears of Xu Han and others: "Whether it is him or the world, now I can't stand the slightest drag..."

"If you do it yourself, so will I..."

......

Qingzhou, sixty miles west of the city, there is a village, called Ximian Village.

The population of the village is sparse, but there are only 30 families, and the people mostly make a living by planting cotton and hunting, but these days, the army that catches children is constantly shuttling everywhere, and the land is diseased, the people in the village are probably very frightened, and the young people drag their families to flee for refuge, and those who can go to their relatives go to their relatives, and only a few old people are left in this Ximian village.

Perhaps it was also because they felt that there was no oil or water to be fished in this place, and the army of the search came several times, and after making sure that there was no prime of life in the village, they completely abandoned this place, and even the holy medicine was not distributed—probably in the eyes of those in power, it was a great waste to give a holy medicine to these old people in the village who were about to die.

As a result, Ximian Village has become a paradise, at least the tragedies that happened in various parts of the Great Zhou have not been staged here.

However, the disease of the land makes it difficult for crops and cotton to survive, and the village is in the prime of life, and hunting is obviously not something that a few old people in the village can do, and it seems that there is no other choice for these old people except to wait for death.

But fortunately, a few days ago, a girl and an old man came here to spend the night, after most of the people in the village fled, many houses in the village were vacant, the old people did not mean to be embarrassed, and vacated a thatched hut for the old man and the young man who claimed to be a master and apprentice to live. But they didn't want to be the saviors of the remaining old people in Ximian Village.

It was not surprising that the girl was carrying a yellow monkey at that time, but after hearing about the situation of the old man in the village, the next day they piled up a pile of rice grain like a small hill out of thin air. The little girl said that it was given to them, and the old people were grateful to Dade, only as if the girl was a god sent from heaven, and respected her more and more.

At night, the little fairy in the heart of the old man of Ximian Village suddenly sat up from the bed, she came to the door next door, looked in along the crack in the door, and after making sure that Zhou Yuan, who was wearing blue linen clothes in the house, had fallen asleep, she tiptoed out of the door, and then trotted all the way to an empty col at the entrance of Ximian Village.

The little one looked up at the sky, and there were no dark clouds, and the dome was full of stars.

But strangely, the starlight seemed to encounter some obstacle, and could not fully shine into the world, and the night was terriblely dark, as if the stars in the sky were just decorations. A gust of night wind blew, and the chill to the bone made the little guy shiver.

Xiao Nineteen finally sighed in an old-fashioned manner: "This year's winter seems to be much colder than ever..."

Something was going on in the world, and she couldn't tell what that change was, but she could feel it very clearly.

This made Nineteen very uneasy, what did she have to do to protect herself, her master, and of course, Uncle Xu, Xiao Nineteen felt that they were all very good people.

Thinking of this, the little one clenched his fist tightly, and then pulled out a long knife from behind his back, which was a full head higher than her body, and held it in his hand.

She began to swing her knife.

Knife after knife, the movements are a little clumsy, but the expression is extraordinarily serious.

Su Muan said that no matter how powerful the knife technique in this world is, it can't escape a slash, a pick, a sweep, and a split.

Nineteen didn't believe Su Mu'an's words, and also asked Xu Hanmengliang and others to discuss their exercises, although she kept these exercises in her heart, but those were still too advanced for her now, and it seemed that the only thing she could learn now was the "stupid method" that Su Mu'an taught her.

Rao is still in her heart to keep some doubts about Su Mu'an's words, but this is also the only thing she can do now. Only by doing these things can she ease the uneasiness in her heart a little.

Therefore, every day when she can't sleep at night, she will run here alone to wield a knife.

Xiao Nineteen was only nine years old after all, and while wielding such a big knife, dense sweat stains soon appeared on her forehead.

She put the knife in her hand aside with some dejection, sat down on the ground with a plop, and muttered: "This girl is so hard, if you know that your knife-breaking method is lying to me, you just wait for me to smash your ears!"

Thinking of this, she sighed again and said, "If only I had the ability of Su Mu'an." ”

Su Mu'an is not much older than her, but her ability is obvious to all, although her mouth speaks ill of him from time to time, but in the bottom of her heart, Xiao Nineteen still envies Su Mu'an's superb knife skills, otherwise she would not have secretly practiced knives every day.

Xiao Nineteen thought about this, but suddenly there was a soft sound behind him.

It was the soft sound of riding boots stepping on the stone slab, and Little Nineteen suddenly came back to his senses.

She grabbed the long knife on the ground, turned around, and took a posture at that time, and shouted, "Who!?"

Of course, no matter how well she stanced, the long knife that was a head taller than her was held by her like this, no matter how she looked at it, it made people feel ridiculous and had no deterrent effect at all.

Click.

Click.

Perhaps it was precisely because of this that the footsteps that were coming towards him did not stop for a minute, and he walked from the shadows not far away, and the footsteps were getting closer and closer.

Nineteen vaguely saw what seemed to be a thin figure dressed in black, but he couldn't really see his appearance due to the foggy night.

"Don't come here!" Although she was powerful in front of Xu Han and the others on weekdays, she was very clear about how much she was capable of, she took a step back and shouted loudly towards the man. But that didn't work, and the man kept walking closer and closer to her.

Nineteen panicked, and subconsciously wanted to touch the trapped dragon on his waist, but found that the thing had already been squandered by his master when Ah Huang took them to find Xu Han a few days ago.

Realizing that her last reliance was gone, Nineteen became more and more flustered, and she continued to retreat, but the man also kept walking towards her. At last, in the process of retreating, Nineteen had retreated to the edge of the hill, and without realizing it, her feet slipped, and her body fell back at that moment, and she was about to fall from the mouth of the cliff.

At that time, the black figure suddenly stepped forward quickly, and an old hand stretched out and grabbed the little hand that Nineteen raised indiscriminately because of the panic, and then the old hand was slightly forced, and the little nineteen's body was lifted by him at that time, out of the danger of falling into the cliff.

The little nineteen, who was out of danger, gasped for a while, and then remembered his situation.

She raised her head in some trepidation and looked at the black-clad figure standing in front of her, and she had already begun to plan a way out in her mind.

But such thoughts vanished the next moment when she saw the face of the man in black.

She changed her previous frightened attitude, and a burst of anger appeared in her eyes, and she stomped her foot at that time, and said dissatisfied.

"Master, what are you doing!? I'm scared to death!"
