After hesitating again and again, Lin Jiangxue finally opened her eyes, and a middle-aged man's face came into view. Even by her harsh standards of appearance, she was a handsome middle-aged man.

He looked at a face of about forty years of age, broad shoulders, square but not rigid, with sharp and angular lines, two well-placed thick eyebrows, a pair of eyes that never get sleepy, a high and straight nose, thick lips, and the lips were covered with a layer of black and white short whiskers, which emphasized the solemn temperament of the whole face.

It was an almost perfect face, and the only imperfection on the face was that it was too pale skin, pale like a patient who had not seen the sun all year round.

He was dressed in a gray robe and had a pair of riding boots under his feet, exactly like the skeleton sitting on the stone bench.

Lin Jiangxue suddenly had a gloomy feeling, and couldn't help but say, "Who are you?"

The man did not answer, and a sad expression appeared on his face. Lin Jiangxue didn't urge, the two were silent like this, their eyes intertwined, and after a long time, the man finally spoke: "Who are you?"

The voice was still cold, but it had some human tones.

This tone made Lin Jiangxue more natural, she was sure that the person in front of her would not hurt her, the reason was simple, if she wanted to kill her, she could do it just now.

She said: "Qingfeng Pavilion Lin Jiangxue pays a visit to the seniors. ”

It must be right to call a senior, not to mention the age of the other party, even if it is an unpredictable cultivation, it is enough to be called a senior.

He was standing in front of Lin Jiangxue, but Lin Jiangxue couldn't feel his existence, even the masters in the early stage of concentration couldn't do this.

The man frowned and muttered in a low voice, "Qingfeng Pavilion?" Looking at his appearance, he didn't seem to be very familiar with this sect.

Lin Jiangxue hurriedly said: "It's the Qingfeng Pavilion in Yunzhou." ’

Qingfeng Pavilion is also one of the top sects in the Southeast Region, and it has existed for a long time, Lin Jiangxue thinks that as long as he is a martial artist in the Southeast Region, he should have heard of the name of the sect, but unfortunately, this man still shook his head and said softly: "I haven't heard of it." ”

Lin Jiangxue couldn't help but feel a little frustrated, but it was not easy to attack, so she could only whisper: "I have told my seniors my identity, and now it is the turn of my seniors, who are you? Why are you here?"

It's not that there can't be people around the Linglong Pagoda, like the Shalaba tribe used to live here, but there are still people living so close to the pagoda, which can't be doubted by Lin Jiangxue.

The man chuckled, and the sadness in his eyes intensified.

"Who am I? I forgot. He said.

Lin Jiangxue said: "You caught me?"

"Not bad," the man did not hide, "your friend is good, and he almost found me." ”

Lin Jiangxue stared at the man's eyes, she saw loneliness in these eyes, and saw coldness, like an iceberg standing in the polar region.

"Why?" Lin asked Jiangxue.

The man chuckled and said, "Do you need a reason to arrest someone?"

"Isn't it necessary?" Lin Jiangxue's expression was a little strange.

"Of course," said the man, "I have caught you for the truth, and I don't need a reason." I don't even know who I am, do I need a reason to arrest someone?" he looked mild-mannered, but his words were extremely arrogant.

"You!" Lin Jiangxue was just about to have a seizure, when she suddenly saw the man's eyes, and the ripples in those eyes were not joking emotions, but a kind of helplessness, loneliness, and a touch of sadness.

"What he said was true, he really forgot who he was. Lin Jiangxue thought to herself.

If a person forgets who he is, it is undoubtedly a sad thing, and Lin Jiangxue felt that there was a softness in her heart as if she had been touched.

Of course, it was only for a moment, and the next moment it would return to normal, and she would not forget that she was a sealed person at the moment, and it was self-evident who was the person who sealed her.

"Okay, then why did Your Excellency seal my true qi, with your cultivation, Dabi doesn't have to be like this. She asked in a deep voice.

The man was stunned, stared at Lin Jiangxue, and said in a low voice, "I—I don't know." ”

Lin Jiangxue stared at him, suddenly sighed, and said, "What you did by yourself, would you not know the reason?"

The man's calm face suddenly changed, he became agitated, and said loudly: "I don't know, I really don't know!"

Suddenly, as if he had gone crazy, he clutched his head.

Lin Jiangxue sighed again, for some reason, looking at the man's painful appearance, the rebuke that came to his mouth couldn't be said no matter what.

She whispered, "Since you don't know, then break my seal and let me go." My companion should be in a hurry. ”

The man suddenly calmed down and raised his head, a pair of originally gentle eyes flashing with a terrifying fierce light.

"No way!" he snapped, "I can't let you go, no way!" He was like a beast that chooses people to eat.

"Why?" Lin Jiangxue couldn't help but raise her tone, and then she regretted it, in the face of a martial artist whose strength was much higher than herself, her attitude was too tough, tough enough to anger her opponent.

And to provoke a strong opponent, the end is self-evident.

But this man was not angry, he didn't look at Lin Jiangxue, and said to himself: "I can't let you go, I must not let you go, although I don't know why, but I must not let you go." ”

Lin Jiangxue couldn't help but feel a little frustrated, she had never encountered such a situation, so she said in a deep voice: "What if I have to go?" As she spoke, she took a tentative step forward.

She was ready to leave, even if the man didn't help her break the seal, and she wouldn't feel comfortable in this gloomy cave, with a corpse and a weirdo.

She's leaving, there's no doubt about it.

As soon as she took a step, the man stood in front of her with lightning speed.

"Don't go!" he snapped.

"Why!" Lin Jiang said.

"I don't know," the man's tone softened: "But I know, I must not let you go!" Unexpectedly, lightning sealed Lin Jiangxue's acupoint, and at the same time, with his left hand, he pressed the stone wall next to him, and a stone on the stone wall was dented, and a rumbling sound sounded, like someone beating a drum in the sky.

A flat stone wall rotated backwards entirely, revealing a secret door, and the man ignored Lin Jiangxue's struggle and entered it without hesitation.

"The third is already the third person. He whispered with a confused look in his eyes, perhaps even he understood what he was saying.

Late at night, the search continued.

The oasis is very large, but after everyone has assigned their own area, the search is also very fast, Liu Qingfu prepared signal flares for each person, and once they found information about Lin Jiangxue, they would launch it as soon as possible.

The area that Han Chuang searched belonged to the center of the oasis, between a forest of aspen trees and shrubs, and was the most dangerous and difficult place to search, which was also requested by Han Chuang himself.

He searched carefully, almost dividing a small piece of territory into squares, looking inch by inch, but the result was frustrating - he found nothing.

After another search, he stopped, standing cross-legged, hoping that the flare would light up, which meant that someone else must have found the clue, but the reason why hope is called hope means that it is still being realized, and it seems to be far away.

Xiao Bai's voice sounded in his heart: "It's okay to take a break, your feelings are right, there are indeed other people in this oasis." ”

Han Chuang said in his heart: "You also feel it?"

Xiaobai said: "It's not a feeling, but there is definite evidence." ”

"Huh?"

Seeing that Han Chuang was a little puzzled, Xiao Bai said, "The low bushes have traces of being trampled on. ”

Han Chuang followed and said, "That's right, I found out too." After a pause, he continued, "And there are new knife marks on the trunk of the poplar tree. ”

Xiaobai said: "That's right, so there must be someone in the oasis." ”

Han Chuang smiled bitterly: "But why did he kidnap Lin Jiangxue, and why did he live here?"

This is also a point that he can't understand, Lin Jiangxue is not outstanding in a group of people, why did he kidnap her, could it be that someone came to see that she was affected by the demons in her heart?

Han Chuang suddenly felt a little uneasy.

Xiao Bai comforted: "Don't worry too much, no matter who he is and what his purpose is, since he kidnapped Miss Jiangxue, he won't hurt her for a while, and although the oasis is big, all of you will eventually find some traces." ”

Han Chuang was about to speak, when he suddenly heard a burst of footsteps behind him.

"Who!"

His right hand was gathered in a palm, ready to attack.

No one spoke, Han Chuang turned his head sharply, and saw a figure flashing by, burrowing into the green next to him, this time he was not mistaken, it was a person, a woman.

A woman's skeleton is generally smaller, and her running posture is different from that of a man, and that person is a woman, a petite woman, both in terms of bones and running posture.

His eyes narrowed, and he ran toward the bush.

Suddenly, a short sword stabbed out of the bushes, just like the moment when the moon was shining brightly, and in the blink of an eye, the sword blade was in front of Han Chuang, and Han Chuang was not panicked, but this level of sneak attack could not help him.

I saw that he stretched out two fingers of his right hand and accurately clamped the blade of the sword, no matter how hard the opponent tried, he couldn't break free.

Han Chuang's squinted eyes opened suddenly, and the corners of his eyes seemed to be smiling, and of course he was a little surprised. The person who came was none other than Mingyue, the female killer who had assassinated him in the city that never sleeped, the last time she was dressed in black, and this time she was dressed in a light red shirt outlining a delicate curve, and her eyes were as black as ink, flashing with a sharp man.

Xu is because of the force, his face is pouting, he is annoyed, and he is also cute.

Han Chuang knew that she was definitely not the one who kidnapped Lin Jiangxue, so he also put his mind at ease, and with a few fingers, he picked up the short sword and flew out.

Mingyue took advantage of the situation and slapped a palm with her left hand towards Han Chuang's chest.

Han Chuang shook his head, didn't dodge, let her slap it, the moment his palm touched his body, he released his true qi, and immediately shook the bright moon away, Han Chuang took advantage of the situation, sealed her three acupoints in a row, and restrained her.

Mingyue saw that she was being controlled by others, and her face showed a look of sadness, but it instantly became sharp.

"Traitor, kill if you want!" she cried out.

Han Chuang smiled slightly and said, "Why did I want to kill you?"

Mingyue said angrily: "You kidnapped Gongzi and Miss, injured my master again, and asked why you killed me?"

Childe?

Who's that?

The figures of Yan Chiyang and Qin Xiang'er appeared in Han Chuang's mind, "The two of them are also here, and they have been kidnapped?", he was immediately shocked, and said hurriedly: "You mean someone was kidnapped?"

Mingyue said angrily: "What are you pretending to be a traitor, what about the middle-aged man who kidnapped Childe and Miss? Let him come out!"

Han Chuang got another piece of information, the kidnapper of Lin Jiangxue may be a middle-aged man, of course, if he wants to get more information, he must first gain Mingyue's trust.

I saw him shake his head, and with a wave of his right hand, he unraveled Mingyue's acupoint.

Mingyue had a shocked look on her face, but after a moment, she sneered, "What kind of tricks are you playing?" ”

Han Chuang smiled slightly and said, "Miss Mingyue, I didn't play any tricks. ”

Mingyue exclaimed, "How do you know that my name is Mingyue?"

Han Chuang smiled: "I not only know that your name is Mingyue, but I also know that you have a master named Mo Chou, and the son and young lady in your mouth are probably Yan Chiyang and Qin Xiang'er." ”

"Who the hell are you!" Mingyue's expression became more guarded, a stranger she had never seen before, but he could accurately tell her information, and she was not allowed to think elsewhere.

Han Chuang saw Mingyue's doubts, and couldn't help but smile: "It seems that the girl has forgotten me," he walked to Mingyue's side with a slow and elegant pace, smiled and took her hand, and said in a low voice: "The city that never sleeps, the night of the bright moon, the sword of the mother and the child." ”

"It's you!"

Mingyue immediately remembered such a person, and then quickly shook her head and said, "No, no, you are different from him." ”

Han Chuang smiled slightly, and said, "Naturally, it's different, it's much more handsome, isn't it?"

Mingyue made a vomiting gesture and whispered, "Are you really him?"

Han Chuang said with a smile: "Since you know about this, can you still do it?" At that time, the girl's sword in one hand really surprised me. ”

Mingyue's face turned red, she knew her own affairs, and the Zimu Sword couldn't help Han Chuang at all, and she was stopped by him at that time.

Han Chuang smiled slightly and said, "By the way, how did you get in, hasn't Yan Chiyang's sect been eliminated?"

Mingyue glanced up at Han Chuang and said in a low voice, "It was a monk who helped us in." "Then inform Han Chuang that the monk is not allowed to help you enter the forbidden land.

It's not a secret, and even if it is, it's nothing.

When Han Chuang heard this, he was so angry that his teeth itched, and he said in his heart: "Okay, you can't be a monk, it turns out that there is such a simple way, and Lao Tzu is risking to participate in some exquisite event." ”

Mingyue saw Han Chuang's expression was different, thinking that he was annoyed that she had used means, so she said: "This is the monk's willingness, and we didn't force him." ”

Han Chuang smiled: "Of course, of course I know, but that monk is not a good thing!"

As soon as Mingyue heard this, she immediately said with the enemy: "That monk is really not a good thing, it turns out that it is so dangerous here, he didn't tell us in advance, only three days after he came in, Yan Gongzi was injured, and a few days ago, he met a strange person, kidnapped Gongzi and Miss together, and injured the master." As he spoke, he began to weep.

Looking at her appearance of rain with pear blossoms, Han Chuang couldn't help but have a big head, and hurriedly held her arm, and comforted her softly: "Don't cry, I'll accompany you to see the master first." ”

After speaking, he hesitated for a moment, and finally did not release the signal flare, perhaps because he felt that it was not worth it.

The two crossed the bushes, rushed out of the poplar forest, and came to the river, and Han Chuang realized that the distance between them was only such a short distance between the downstream and the upstream.

An old man lay in a clearing by the river, his eyes closed, his brow furrowed, his face as pale as a corpse, and if it were not for the occasional movement, one might even wonder if he was dead.

And in fact, he was still alive, only seriously injured, and when Han Chuang and Mingyue approached, he opened his eyes, his gaze swept over Mingyue, and finally fell on Han Chuang.

"It's you. He laughed, his voice shaking.

Han Chuang smiled and said, "You recognize me?"

Mo Chou said: "Although your appearance has changed, the feeling will not change, a killer can see through all disguises." ”

Han Chuang shook his head and said with a smile: "Okay, I'm not here to discuss the matter of disguise, let me see your injuries first." He squatted down and took Mo Chou's hand.

The hand was as thin as ever, but the skin on the surface of the hand had lost its luster and turned into a gray color.

Han Chuang sent a true qi into Mo Chou's body, and then frowned.

"What's wrong?" Mingyue asked urgently.

Han Chuang waved his hand, signaling her to be quiet, and after a while, his brows tightened.

Mo Chou smiled open-mindedly and said, "How is it? The old man is seriously injured." ”

Han Chuang glanced at him and said in a low voice, "I won't hide it from you, it's very heavy." ”

If the internal organs are displaced, the injury of the truncated meridians is not serious, and I am afraid that there is no serious injury.

Mo Chou smiled, his gray eyes shining with light.

"He only used one trick. He said, "A palm print on my chest." He struggled to pull back the shirt on his chest, revealing half of his palm prints, black, black, scorching.

Han Chuang glanced at the pitch-black palm print, then fell silent, his brows furrowed.

Mingyue asked anxiously, "How is it?"

When Han Chuang saw it, he immediately said, "It's a little troublesome, but it's not incurable." As he spoke, he took out a large pill from his waist.

"Eat this first to save your vitality. ”

Mo Chou married the Great Returning Dan, smiled weakly, and said, "The Great Returning Pill of the Qingzhu Sect, who are you?"

Han Chuang shook his head and said, "Does it matter?"

Mo Chou nodded.

Han Chuang said helplessly: "I'm just an outcast of the Qingzhu Sect. ”

Mo Chou's eyes lit up and said, "Han Chuang?"

Han Chuang smiled but did not speak.

Mingyue blinked, stared at Han Chuang, and said, "You are Han Chuang, the guy who judged the sect for the demon girl of the Evil Moon Sect?"

Han Chuang said: "Qingqing is not a demon girl. ”

Mingyue stuck out her tongue and said in a low voice, "I'm sorry, I mean to say, I mean-" She blushed and couldn't say a word for a long time.

Han Chuang shook his head, knowing that what he had done had become an idol in the hearts of deviant girls, didn't he see Wei Hongqiong as well?

At the moment, he said to Mo Chou: "Let's take Da Huan Dan first, and then how to treat it, I still need to think about it." "If you don't absorb the Shenmu Wang Ding, and you don't have the space jade pendant, I'm afraid Han Chuang can't do it.

But with these two things, plus the medicine garden that Xiaobai helped him take care of in the jade pendant, there was a chance to cure Mo Chou.

Han Chuang knew it in his heart, so he said, "By the way, who hurt you?"
