Chapter 110: Fireflies

At night, the wasteland at the foot of the Tien Shan Mountains becomes even colder.

The clouds in the sky half-obscured the dark moon, a few stars dotted, the cold wind howled on the wasteland, and there were no traces of people, but the snow reflected the dim moonlight, adding a touch of comfort to the surroundings.

At this time, someone lit a bonfire in the middle of the wasteland.

On the bonfire, there is a rabbit, roasted with oily shiny and fragrant, and the surface of the golden rabbit meat is oozing out of the skin, dripping into the fireworks, constantly making a crackling sound.

In front of the rabbit rack, beside the campfire, there were two people sitting side by side, a man and a woman, one large and one small, each wearing a thick fur jacket, staring at each other.

Neither of them wanted to speak first, as if whoever spoke would lose the upper hand first, and for a while, the scene was extremely embarrassing.

Maybe this is not the way to go, the girl seems to be unable to hold her breath at first, she blinks, but for a moment she does not know how to speak.

"Alas!"

"Say something if you have something. ”

Although the man's body was not so serious in front of him, he didn't expect that the exit was still very stiff, as if he was very nervous, and the girl seemed to be a little relieved when she saw him like this.

"You say, can they really find it if they do this, isn't it...... Dog ......"

After speaking, the girl seemed a little embarrassed, and even felt that her words were like scolding, but she couldn't find any suitable words for a while.

"Don't worry, if that girl is hungry, her nose is more smart than a dog. ”

The man chuckled, as if he had thought of something, and at this moment, there was a creaking sound of feet stepping on the snow not far away.

The two looked up and saw two figures crossing the hillside and walking towards them.

"Xiao Qi, look, I'm right!"

The little girl smiled, and even let go of Lin Qi's hand, and ran down as soon as she slipped through the smoke, Lin Qi followed behind, smiling helplessly, and could only take a few steps.

"Third Uncle, Sister Xiyu, are you waiting for us?"

Firefly came to the campfire, sat down on the side, and asked while stretching out her hand to bake the fire, but a pair of eyes stared at the roast rabbit in front of her, and it seemed that she couldn't move away, seeing that she was wearing a thick cotton coat, a little bloated, but it was very cute.

The two people waiting here are Mu Xuanli and Dusk Yu, although the two are father and daughter, they have not seen each other for 20 years, but they didn't expect to appear in this place together, so Lin Qi was a little surprised when he saw it.

"Uncle Sanshi!"

Lin Qi stepped forward to salute and sat down on the side, at this time, Mu Xuanli also looked at him, looked up and down, and couldn't help but nodded.

"It's back. ”

As a sound of peace, Mu Xuanli got up and took off the roast rabbit from the shelf, and then took out a bright dagger from his arms, looked at it and was about to start, but he didn't know how to cut it for a long time.

Unexpectedly, the peerless swordsman who had trained countless high-grade swordsmanship would make a difficult mistake against a roast rabbit, and he had no idea where to start, Lin Qi saw this, so he stood up and stepped forward to take both the roast rabbit and the short dagger.

"I'll do it anyway. ”

After Lin Qi finished speaking, he erected the rabbit obliquely, first let the oil stains slide off, and then skillfully picked up the short dagger, and now the rabbit meat was scratched a few times, so that the heat inside was released, at this time, the steam was pervasive, the aroma was fragrant, not only the firefly pear, but even the twilight ballad on the side couldn't help but swallow a mouthful of saliva.

Three times five divided by two, Lin Qi took off the two rabbit hind legs, one handed to the twilight ballad, and the other to the girl, and then skillfully decomposed the rabbit meat, and Mu Xuanli also prepared the oil paper early, took the rabbit meat one by one, and everyone sat on the ground and began to feast.

Mu Xuanli took out two soft leather pouches from behind him and threw one to Lin Qi, Lin Qi picked it up and opened the stopper, put it in front of his face and sniffed it, but found that it was wine.

"Third uncle, I don't drink......"

"It's okay, it's cold, drink some to warm up, and you're not too young, this little wine doesn't have much weight. ”

After Mu Xuanli finished speaking, he raised his head, and poured a few sips, as if he was setting an example for Lin Qi.

The wine was spicy in the mouth, accompanied by a turbid taste, and the wine went straight to Lin Qi's nose, Lin Qi swallowed it with his breath, only to feel that there was a fire in his chest, the heat in the sea of air was surging, and he was already sweating on his forehead, and even his nasal cavity was much smoother!

"Hahaha, this is the wine made by the grassland people, called the sun that never sets, although the name of this grassland barbarian is average, but this wine is really not bad!"

Listening to Mu Xuanli's words, Lin Qi nodded, raised his head and poured another sip, the wine was spicy and choking in his throat, but at this time, it had a different taste.

"Good wine!"

Hearing Lin Qi's heroic admiration, Mu Xuanli couldn't help laughing, and the two girls couldn't help but be curious and funny when they looked at their appearance.

Originally, from the beginning, no one in the field spoke, as if they were immersed in the delicious food in front of them, but in fact, except for the fireflies in the field, they all seemed to have their own thoughts, so the atmosphere turned out to be weird, I didn't expect Mu Xuanli to make such a fuss, it was suddenly active, and the strange atmosphere was gone, in exchange for Lin Qi's reopened heart.

Mu Xuanli took a sip of wine and put down the wine bag, but sighed.

"Xiao Qi, I know you have a lot to say, so it's better to just take advantage of the strength of the wine and just say it!"

Lin Qi was also seen by Du Xuanli and others since childhood, and he knew his temperament well, he knew that if he didn't pierce this layer of window paper first, Lin Qi wouldn't ask anyway, and now with the strength of wine, it would be even more natural.

Lin Qi's face was flushed, obviously the strength of the wine had already gone up his face, his eyes were straight, and he was stunned for a moment, then he lowered his head again and felt something from his arms.

It was boxy, dull, and held in his hand like a piece of iron, but inconspicuous.

But when he saw this piece of iron, whether it was Mu Xuanli or the Dusk Rumor, he suddenly looked straight in the eyes.

Mu Xuanli reached out to pick it up, but found that Lin Qi didn't have any intention of handing it over, his hand was even half empty, but in the end he could only take it back in embarrassment.

"Third Master, why are you doing this?"

Lin Qi finally asked what he wanted to ask.

Hearing Lin Qi's words, the twilight rumor was obviously a little cramped and uneasy, but Mu Xuanli seemed to have known that Lin Qi had asked this question, so he was not surprised.

"Now that you have passed the trial of the Qin Tomb, you must know the secrets in the Qin Tomb very clearly......

Hearing Mu Xuanli's words, Lin Qi nodded.

"Yes, including the fact that the Twilight Snow Clan is actually a descendant of the Great Piano!"

Hearing this, Mu Xuanli was expressionless, as if he had expected it, but Dusk Yu was obviously frightened, because this was something that even she didn't know.

"It's said that it's a descendant, but in fact, it only has one-twelfth of the bloodline. Saying that, Mu Xuanli sighed deeply, "Actually, this time, it is indeed me, and the selfishness of our Twilight Snow Clan is hidden in it, but in the final analysis, I don't want to harm you." ”

"But you know that there is something waiting for us on the road ahead, but you deliberately conceal it and let me risk it with the girl, but for what?"

"Because I know you and trust you, if I don't do this, you won't even choose to enter the Qin Tomb like this, let alone that you can pass the trial of the Qin Tomb like this, but because I believe in you, just like your master and sister, and your other masters, I believe that you will definitely be able to overcome many difficulties and complete your goal!"

Hearing Mu Xuanli's words, Lin Qi fell silent for a moment, he looked at Mu Xuanli, and then looked down at the iron in his hand, and he didn't know if he agreed with Mu Xuanli's answer.

At this time, the twilight ballad sitting on the side obviously couldn't stand it, she hesitated for a while, but finally decided to speak.

He ...... And we really don't intend to harm you, although the Qin Tomb is full of unknowns and risks, but do you know that for thousands of years, no one has been able to pass the final test in time, but so far, no one has ever been trapped and died in the Qin Tomb, and it is precisely because of this that we dare to let you go to the Qin Tomb, otherwise...... Otherwise, I wouldn't dare wait for you here......"

When she spoke, Twilight Ballad was even a little anxious, her face was flushed, she was originally cold and indifferent, and she cherished words like gold, but she didn't expect to say so many words at once, although in the back, her voice was a little weak, but her words were firm, and she was not faking.

After listening to his words, Mu Xuanli also nodded.

"Yes, in order to buy more time with you, she really held on to the last moment, even a few hours longer than the original set time, and by the time I arrived, she was already crumbling, if it was a little later, I was afraid that her life would be in danger first. ”

After speaking, seeing that Lin Qi didn't have any response, Mu Xuanli and the Dusk Rumor fell silent together, not knowing how to continue, and the atmosphere suddenly returned to the strange and extremely embarrassing situation at the beginning.

I don't know how long it took, Lin Qi finally raised his head, he held the iron block, as if he wanted to hand it over, but what he didn't expect was that Lin Qi was so strong that he pushed it for a long time, but he still couldn't find the right place.

"Third Master, you know, the name of this piece of iron, called Wanling Iron, I think it's exactly what you need!"

Listening to Lin Qi's words, Mu Xuanli stretched out his hand and greeted Lin Qi and took the Wanling Iron in his hand, the iron was very heavy, even Mu Xuanli was taken aback, and he almost couldn't hold it, he only felt that it was extremely smooth, and there was even a coolness that did not pierce his hands.

Seeing that the piece of iron was finally handed over to Mu Xuanli's hands, Lin Qi actually smiled, then fell back and slowly sat back by the bonfire.

"Third Master, I hope you don't live up to yourself and the expectations of your own people. ”

Hearing Lin Qi's words, Mu Xuanli was stunned on the spot, at this time, even the twilight rumors beside him began to look at Mu Xuanli, his eyes were full of eagerness and expectation, which was indescribable.

At this time, Lin Qi suddenly fell backwards, and he lay directly in the snow.

"Third uncle, I'm so tired, I really need to take a good rest......" After speaking, he really fell asleep in a deep voice.

And at this time, the firefly pear who was sitting on the side eating rabbit meat, at this time, was holding a rabbit hind leg that had gnawed most of it, it was sleepy-eyed, completely shaky, she saw Lin Qi falling, she actually skimmed off the bones in her hand casually, and then looked up to the sky and fell into Lin Qi's arms.

"Xiao Qi, you don't wait for me, ......"

The two actually fell asleep together, which made the father and daughter on the side stunned.

These two people are really tired, physically and mentally exhausted.

"If you sleep like this, you'll catch a cold......"

The twilight rumor was really a little relieved, so he looked back at Mu Xuanli, as if he wanted to ask for the latter's opinion.

"It's okay, these two people have exercises to protect their bodies, and they will get sick if it's not so simple, and Xiao Qi just drank wine, this scorching sun can drive away the cold and protect the body, it's very tight!"

After speaking, Mu Xuanli looked down at the Wanling Iron in his hand, his eyes burning, but he seemed to feel that the iron in his hand was a little heavier.

Unexpectedly, at this time, the heavy iron suddenly lit up with a faint golden glow, and with the glow, the iron slowly floated in the air.

"It's ......"

Just when Mu Xuan was unclear, a faint brilliance suddenly flashed in front of him, and then transformed into an incomparably clear human form......

"This ...... This is the Holy Spirit!"

Mu Xuanli's surprise was indescribable, and although the Dusk Song didn't know what the Holy Spirit was, judging from Mu Xuanli's performance, he probably knew how powerful these figures were.

"Mu Xuanli, it's been a long time. ”

It was the sky that spoke, but I didn't expect her to be an old acquaintance with Mu Xuanli.

"Holy Spirit, you ...... Why are you here?"

Cangqiong smiled slightly, and turned his head to look at Lin Qi and Yingli who were sleeping, with a gentle face, at this time, Mu Xuanli realized that the sudden appearance of the Holy Spirit people actually subtly guarded Lin Qi and Firefly in the middle, which seemed random, but it was intentional at all.

"The existence of the Qin Tomb is meaningless, and we have nowhere to go, so we can only pin on this piece of iron of ten thousand souls, and when the time is ripe, we will hand over the inheritance of our Daqin to our new owner of the Daqin one by one!"

Hearing Cangqiong say this, Mu Xuanli was taken aback, and only then did he suddenly realize that the master of the Daqin inheritance was Lin Qi.

"This ...... This ......"

Mu Xuanli was a little stupid, and he didn't know what to say to express his mood at this time for a while.

"Mu Xuanli, since the master is willing to temporarily entrust this Wanling Iron to you, it is the greatest trust in you, so you don't have to feel guilty and uneasy, you don't have to hesitate, and you don't have to be arrogant, I believe that in the near future, when you return the Wanling Iron again, you will definitely shock the world!"

Cangqiong's words seemed to break Mu Xuanli's heart, and when he heard the twilight rumor, he was obviously stunned for a moment, but he didn't say anything.

At this time, the figure of the Holy Spirit disappeared again, and the Ten Thousand Spirit Iron also fell back into Mu Xuanli's hands, the only difference was that the iron glow did not dissipate, and the air was also filled with a glow like fireflies, surrounding everyone and lasting for a long time.

As the saying goes,

The three-foot sword is terrifying,

Write the spring and autumn in the heart of the piano,

The mountains of fireflies can't be waved,

Drunk into the bowels of the chivalrous party.
