Chapter Ninety-Five: Yuehuazhu
The four of them ran wildly through the night, and did not stop until they left the canyon for dozens of miles, resting on a quiet hillside. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
"Shaoxia, thank you so much for saving your life. Asa took Arnold a few steps forward and fist-hugging Qiushui, who was sitting on the grass. Qiushui looked at the two of them directly, and snorted coldly: "Don't you recognize me?" Hearing this, both of them were stunned, thinking that this young man had never been able to meet with them, but after searching carefully in his mind, he didn't have any impression of this person.
Seeing that the two of them looked dazed, and indeed couldn't remember, Qiushui stood up, dusted off the weeds on his back, and then looked at them with a serious face, reminding: "Think about it carefully, three months ago, Wild Boar Ridge." ”
"Wild Boar Ridge ......" Asa muttered in her mouth, and suddenly, she seemed to remember something, and looked at Qiushui with a shocked face, her expression was as if she had seen a ghost: "Could it be that you were one of the two teenagers who were in the wild boar cave at that time, watching us hunt the wild boar king?" After she said that, Arnold seemed to remember that there was such a thing, but at that time he thought that there were just two ordinary people who happened to be caught by the wild boar king, and he didn't even look at it, so naturally he couldn't remember Qiushui's appearance.
"So you've known each other for a long time. Yun Ze interjected on the side.
"Hehe, in fact, we just did what we should have done at that time, that wild boar did a lot of evil, and someone should have cleaned him up a long time ago. Asa waved his hand, as if thinking that the reason why Qiushui saved them was because he had witnessed them kill the boar king for the people. Of course, their purpose is only to get a bounty from the villagers, and everyone knows this.
Qiushui was silent, still looking at them coldly. Asa saw that the atmosphere didn't seem to be right, so he put away his smile at the moment, and said with some embarrassment: "When, of course, Shaoxia, your strength is so strong, far above the two of us, even if we don't make a move, you can do it alone...... Ah, did we accidentally steal your prey in the first place? I'm sorry, I'm sorry. Asa thought of something, and immediately bowed and apologized there, but she didn't know that what Qiushui really cared about was the pained look on the little boar's face when he lost his loved ones. Qiushui himself became an orphan at an early age, so he can be said to empathize with that kind of sadness. But at this moment, there is no point in talking about these or avenging the boar king, after all, the boar king has indeed done a lot of evil, maybe the world is like this, good has good karma, evil has evil consequences, it's not that you don't want to revenge, the time has not come.
"Okay, okay, the reason why I saved you has nothing to do with any of this, I just want to know what is going on. Qiushui sighed, and his face returned to his former calmness. He found a clean place and sat down. Yun Ze was also very interested in what happened in the canyon, and the person who was lying down sat up all of a sudden, looking at the two of them with interest.
Asa and Arno glanced at each other, and then Asa sighed and said, "That's the case, a few days ago, Arno and I received a letter from Zongnei, so we rushed to Tiger City non-stop. When I arrived at the Gold and Silver Sect, I found that there were already dozens of bounty hunters like us waiting in the hall. At this time, Wang Junshi, who was beside the sect master, rushed over, and he told us that according to reliable information, tonight, a force from the Poison Sect Alliance would arrive from Dragon City and want to raid Tiger City. What we have to do is to set up an ambush in the valley of the cliffs they must pass through, and then destroy them in one fell swoop. So, according to the instructions of the military advisor, before the moon rose, we went to the canyon and found some higher and hidden places to hide. In the middle of the night, a team arrived from Dragon City, but in terms of number and size, it was far more than the military advisor had told us. But at that time, it was already difficult to ride the tiger, so we had to rush forward, and you can see the result. Later, there was a hint of helplessness in her voice.
"Hehe, it seems that you have become a victim of the Gold and Silver Sect. Yun Ze listened to Asa's description, and after a little thought, he understood.
"What do you mean?" Asa turned his head to glare at Yun Ze, and strangely, Yun Ze did not dodge, but looked at her. It didn't take long for Asa to look away.
"Yes, in fact, you yourself have long realized it, but you just refuse to admit it. Yun Ze smiled faintly. Arnold grabbed Assa's shoulders with both hands, turned her around, and asked with a serious face, "What's going on?"
Asa brushed the loose strands of hair on his forehead behind his ears, then shook his head and said, "I only vaguely guessed before, it stands to reason that there are many masters in the sect, but the people who participated in this operation are all unknown juniors, which in itself is unreasonable. And the reinforcements that the military advisor said had not arrived for a long time, so I wonder if we will just be pawns used to delay time. ”
Arnold opened his mouth on the side, as if he wanted to refute, but he couldn't spit out a word for a long time, and finally had to let go of his hand and let out a long sigh.
"Therefore, it is estimated that the real purpose of the Gold and Silver Sect is to want the Poison Sect Alliance to arrive in Tiger City later, and they will take this opportunity to bypass and give Dragon City a surprise attack, this move is really vicious. Qiushui also understood, and sighed there.
"It's just that I don't know if that thing is still in Tiger City. Asa said as if he had suddenly thought of something. Arnold tugged at her sleeve and motioned for her not to continue.
"That thing?" Qiushui and Yun Ze said in unison.
"Arnold, since the Gold and Silver Sect doesn't treat us as its own, what else do we have to hide?" Asa pulled Arnold's hand away, and continued: "Two young heroes, it's like this, in fact, the Poison Sect and they joined forces to deal with the Gold and Silver Sect for just a treasure. ”
"What kind of treasure can make them so coveted that they will do so much to make a big deal out of it at any cost?" Qiu Shui asked in surprise with a surprised expression.
"Actually, we didn't know it at first, but we just happened to hear someone mention it during this operation, so we connected the matter back and forth. That's right, our Gold and Silver Sect collects a certain percentage of commissions from hunters in the sect every year, and a few weeks ago, a one-star hunter with very poor performance offered a bead he had accidentally obtained in order not to be removed from the sect. At first, the sect didn't take it seriously, but when the sect master saw the bead in person, his face changed drastically, and he immediately put it away. It was then that the sect master began to retreat, and the beads never appeared in everyone's sight again. However, I don't know who leaked the news, but the news still spread, and there was a lot of discussion in Hucheng for a while, all speculating about what the bead was. According to a person who has seen the thing, the bead will emit a dazzling brilliance under the moonlight, like the legendary moon pearl. ”
"What, Yuehuazhu?" Hearing these three words, Yun Ze suddenly stood up from the ground and looked at Asa with a shocked expression. At the same time, among the trees on the side, there was a pair of red eyes, which also opened suddenly, staring at the people present.
