Chapter 421: The sword qi has fallen
"What are you so nervous about, and you won't be able to lose."
Xuanyuan Ye put away the fan and looked away.
Shangguan Li retracted his legs, then took out a few straps from his sleeves, and asked him while tightening his loose trouser legs.
"What does the prince mean?"
"Have you heard of Heng Qiuyu?"
Shangguan Li shook her head, she has not been in this world for a long time, and her energy is basically focused on medicinal herbs, and she is not interested in these jade, stones, and the like.
"I guess so."
Xuanyuan Ye was not surprised.
"The whale has not swallowed the sea, and the sword qi has fallen. Hengqiu jade was originally used to forge swords, but because this jade is so rare, it has always only been used on the blade of the sword, and it can be a divine weapon. ”
Shangguan Li: "......"
Such a precious thing is used to make a fan?
"Over the years, I've only heard of a sword being forged purely from Hengqiu jade."
Shangguan Li raised his head.
The bony fingers flicked lightly on the fan body, crisp as promised, like wind chimes.
Xuanyuan said slowly.
"The name is Zhuyi, and it is the sword worn by the last chief envoy of the Scarlet Dynasty."
Speaking of this, he suddenly glanced at the shadow not far behind him, and said with a smile.
"Right?"
A person came out of the shadows that was originally silent, and it was Beishui who threatened to stay with Xuanyuan Ye an inch, but he kept his promise and followed when he said he would follow.
Under the thin moonlight, his face was not so good-looking, probably because he was easily discovered where he was hiding.
Shangguan Li also cast a slightly gossipy look.
Beishui's face was straight.
"The matter of the scarlet Qing, even the prince has nothing to say."
"That's true."
Shangguan Li finished tying his ankles and said with his chin in his hands.
"Listening to the words of the Lord of Pear Island before, could it be that the previous envoy of your Scarlet Qing was the one named Wen Tu?"
Beishui's face was even darker.
Forget about the king of Zhenbei, where did this woman come from, dare to call that adult's name?
But if he scolded now, wouldn't he admit the identity of Lord Wen, so he frowned and changed the topic stiffly.
"I wonder what this has to do with the assassin we're looking for?"
"What's the matter, this girl should know."
Xuanyuan Ye raised his head, and happened to meet Shangguan Li's gaze, the faint moonlight floated beside the two of them, both of them were graceful figures, and they seemed to have an indescribable tacit understanding and match.
Beishui tugged at the corners of his mouth, silently remembering the task of investigating the identity of this woman.
Shangguan Li looked away and nodded his chin.
"That assassin can destroy Hengqiu Jade with one arrow, and although the arrow is worn, it is not cracked......"
Halfway through the words, Beishui had already understood what she meant, and his heart sank.
He knew the hardness of Heng Qiuyu, and it was not an exaggeration to say that he was a divine soldier.
But he was defeated by this unknown assassin?
Either the assassin was already proficient in kung fu, or the material of the arrow was not trivial. Either way, it means that the identity of this assassin may be much higher than the ordinary master or cannon fodder character that Scarlet imagined before.
Correspondingly, it means that it is not easy to catch him.
As he spoke, a man rushed in the distance. When he got closer, he was picked up by Beishui's paws.
"Eh, wait, wait, the strong man has mercy."
It's Riku.
Beishui put him down, but his hand did not leave.
"What are you doing here?"
"Our island owner, Scarlet Qing, wants to catch the assassins, and it has nothing to do with Pear Island. He's busy reassuring the guests who have landed on the island, so let me let you know...... After that, Pear Island will not be involved. ”
Riku's voice became lower and lower, and his confidence became less and less.
After all, he knew that the people in front of him now were people he couldn't mess with.
There was no anger on Beishui's face.
"The Lord of Pear Island is not involved, so what about her?"
He looked at Shangguan Li.
"Since this girl is also from Pear Island, why doesn't the island owner let her go back?"
"Forehead ......"
Riku hadn't really thought about this question before she came.
"Because from now on, this girl is no longer from Pear Island."
Just when Riku was struggling with what excuse to make, someone suddenly opened his mouth to relieve the siege.
When he looked over, it turned out to be the great god Xuanyuan Night.
The "Great God" raised his head and smiled at Shangguan Li.
"From now on, she and I."
Riku and Beishui were stunned.
Even Shangguan Li, who knew that he was saying this to relieve the siege, was in a trance for a moment, because the seriousness on Xuanyuan Ye's face was too realistic, she couldn't help but believe it a little.
After a while, she said.
"Why haven't I heard from the owner about this?"
Xuanyuan Night is well-founded.
"Otherwise, what do you think I talked about with Rika Shadow in the sake brewery?"
She wasn't entirely sure what it was talking about, but it certainly wouldn't be it.
Shangguan Li glanced vaguely at Beishui, a few meters away, and temporarily compromised. Now it seems that this is indeed the best reason.
Seeing that she doesn't object, that's acquiescence.
Beishui and Riku were each shocked.
It is rumored that the king of Zhenbei is not close to women, and even the emperor's favorite princess Changle has not seen him shaken for so many years.
Now you have a beautiful woman by your side?
This spread out, and it is estimated that it will be enough for countless spring girls in the capital to wash their faces with tears for a month.
"Now the problem is solved."
Xuanyuan waved lazily and let the north water come in front of him. The two sides are too far apart, and it is inevitable to raise their voices when they speak, and it takes a little more effort not to speak, this is drawing into the wilderness, and a little wind and grass kinetic energy is spreading far and wide, and I can't tell where the assassin will squat and listen now.
Beishui also understood this truth, and when he was about to come over, he heard the girl speak.
"Let's bring Riku with me."
"No!"
When Riku heard this, he pulled his legs and wanted to run, but his movements were obviously not as fast as Beishui, and he reached out and pulled him back again.
It wasn't until he brought the person to Shangguan Li that he reacted, no, why did he listen to this woman?
"Great, my lord, I'm just a messenger ......"
"We're short of manpower, and you've been on this island for so long, so you can be a guide, and since the owner of the island asked you to come, it must be the same thing."
Shangguan Li interrupted him, and what he said was reasonable.
Riku stopped when he heard this.
"You are a prince who is famous in the north and south of the country, and a commander of the Scarlet Dynasty, even if you find a reason, you can find a little bit of it!"
Xuanyuan Ye: "Since I know Your Majesty's intentions, how can I take people by my side, isn't this disobeying Your Majesty's will?" ”
Beishui: "Everyone else has been sent to look at the outskirts of the swamp, and now I'm the only one." ”
"I don't need to say it, do I?"
Shangguan Li shook his legs and smiled.
Riku: "......"
Aren't these big names a little shabby?
