Chapter 30: The Eve of the Declaration of War
The rain in the sky drifted in the sky like fine sand flying all over the sky; For the green things of the earth, bring a hope, moisten the leaf tops, but also for the water ducks in the river pond, bring a pleasant interest, looking for the mystery of autumn.
Xue Ru, who is absent-minded all day long, no matter how Nangong Ying teases her, she always smiles slightly, but Nangong Ying's heart is very white, Xue Ru is not really laughing, she just doesn't want him to worry, and Nangong Ying will not pick Yin as much as she can, she has been following Xue Ru, she can do whatever she wants, if Xue Ru decides to do something, he will also help Xue Ru to complete, the most important thing in Nangong Ying's heart is to protect Xue Ru and not let her be hurt a little.
"Xiaoxue, let's go, I'll take you to a place." Nangong Ying took Xue Ru's hand and said.
"Brother Shadow, where are you going to take me?" Xue Ru said as she walked with Nangong Ying.
"Hehe, the secret, you'll know in a moment!" Nangong Ying said to Xue Ru with a smile.
Nangong Ying and Xue were flying like a sword, and Xue Ru put her hands on Nangong Ying's shoulders behind Nangong Ying.
"Brother Shadow, what the hell is this place? You're still going to keep it a secret from me? "If you look left and right, all you see is snow-white clouds, and you can't see anything else.
"Hehe, it's definitely a good place, it's there in a while." Nangong Ying looked ahead and said with a smile, Xue Ru was silent and didn't continue to ask.
"Xiaoxue, you see, this is it." Nangong Ying pointed to the distance below and said.
"Huh? Is that? Xue Ru looked at the place where Nangong Ying was pointing.
After a while, Nangong Ying and Xue Ru arrived on the island, full of colorful small wildflowers, there is a big waterfall in front, birds are flying in the air, and there are many butterflies flying among the flowers, the air here is fresh, it is refreshing, Xue Ru closed her eyes, opened her arms, and felt the breath here, very comfortable, slowly Xue Ru's face showed a smile, Nangong Ying saw Xue Ru smile, not to mention how happy she was.
"How? Like it here? Nangong Ying looked at Xue Ru with her eyes closed and said.
"Well, I love it here." Xue Ru opened her eyes and turned to Nangong Ying and said.
"Well, if you like it, it's fine." Nangong Ying said to Xue Ru with a smile.
"Brother Shadow, how did you find this place? It's far from the Tien Shan Mountains! "Snow walked forward, walked among the flowers and frolicked with the butterflies.
"Once in the past when I was in a bad mood, Edgeworth flew everywhere, flew farther and farther, and then accidentally fell from the sky, and landed on this small island, which happened to make me discover this place, which can calm your heart, and then whenever I am unhappy and upset, I will come here to restore my mood." Nangong Ying admired the surrounding scenery, looked at the waterfall, listened to the sound of the waterfall, then looked at the birds in the air, the butterflies flying among the flowers, and finally looked at Xue Ru standing among the flowers.
"Hehe, I didn't expect Brother Shadow to have such a story, by the way, Brother Shadow, what kind of things would you be unhappy about?" Xue Ru walked to a grassy clearing and sat down to look at Nangong Ying and said.
"Me, I'll be unhappy because the people I care about the most are unhappy, and I'll be sad when I see the people I care about the most sad." Nangong Ying walked towards Xue Ru, sat next to Xue Ru and said.
"Hehe, Brother Shadow is so gentle and considerate! I think the person Brother Shadow cares about the most must be very happy! Xue Ru said with a smile, lying on the grass and closing her eyes, listening to the sound of birds, waterfalls, and the rustling of leaves by the wind, and fell asleep.
"Will you be happy? Xiaoxue, if I said that the person I care about the most is you, will you feel happy? Alas. Nangong Ying looked at the sky and spoke in a very small voice, I am afraid that I dare not say it loudly to Xue Ru!
In this way, Nangong Ying and Xue Ru fell asleep on the grass together, and when they woke up, it was already dark, Xue Ru was very grateful to Nangong Ying for bringing her to this island, on this day on the island, Xue Ru's mood was much better, her whole body became relaxed, and she also figured out a lot of things.
"Brother Shadow, thank you, thank you for bringing me here." Xue Ru stood up and said to Nangong Ying.
"Well, I see that you are much better, I am also relieved, you have been absent-minded because of Han Xiao's matter during this time, I am very worried about you, and I am relieved to see you smiling." Nangong Ying also stood up and said to Xue Ru.
"I'm sorry, Brother Shadow, for worrying you about me." Xue Ru glanced at Nangong Ying, then turned her back to Nangong Ying, lowered her head and said.
"Hehe, it's okay, Xiaoxue, as long as you're okay." Nangong Ying walked in front of Xue Ru, put her hands on Xue Ru's shoulders, leaned over and looked at Xue Ru and said.
"Hmm." Xue Ru raised her head and looked at Nangong Ying and said.
"Alright, it's getting dark, I'll go back quickly! If the Dragon Hidden Immortal finds out that we are not there, it will be over. Nangong Ying's hands moved away from Xue Ru's shoulders and said.
"Well, let's go back!" Xue Ru hurriedly said.
Nangong Ying and Xue Ru flew back to the Palace of Despair at the same time, and after arriving at the Palace of Despair, Xue Ru and Nangong Ying separated, Nangong Ying looked at the back of Xue Ru leaving, and felt that Xue Ru was much better than before, and Nangong Ying's heart was also much more relieved.
When Nangong Ying was about to leave, he suddenly felt a little uneasy, I don't know if it was the reason for the sixth sense, I always felt that Xue Ru would be discovered by Long Yin Shangxian, so he came to Long Yin Shangxian's room, seeing that Long Yin Shangxian was about to go out of the room, he decided to use Han Xiao's matter as an excuse to drag Long Yin Shangxian, so that Xue Ru's going out would not be discovered by Long Yin Shangxian, and then Xue Ru returned to his room smoothly, Nangong Ying also returned to his room to rest, and Long Yin Shangxian saw that the time was not early and decided not to rest. Nangong Ying and Xue Ru are safe, and they smoothly concealed the matter of going out, which can be regarded as a thrill!
After Xue Ru returned to the room, she lay on the bed and recalled the bits and pieces with Han Xiao, she was very happy every day, she never quarreled, although Xue Ru and Han Xiao were not sisters, they were better than sisters, they had always talked about everything, thinking about it, Xue Ru covered her mouth and cried, tears couldn't help but flow, and she didn't dare to cry out loud.
Xue Ru got up and wiped her tears, Xue Ru's expression seemed to say, "Now is not the time to cry, what do you want to do." ”
As the sun climbed higher in the sky, the blue, no longer so deep, slowly faded. Before you know it, clouds and breezes are chasing and playing in the sky. The gloomy sunshine gave the sky a soft and warm color, which was very comfortable and relaxed.
After yesterday's Xue Ru seemed to want to do something, she came to the room of the head Nangong Ling.
"Master, Xue asks to see you if you have something." Xue Ru knocked on the door twice and said.
"Come in!" Nangong Ling sat up and leaned against the pillow and said.
"Sir, I have something I want to discuss with you." Xue Ru pushed open the door and walked to Nangong Ling's bedside and said.
"What's the matter? Sit down and talk! Nangong Ling looked at Xue Ru and pointed to the chair behind Xue Ru and said.
"Yes, boss, I want to go down the mountain to talk to Sister Xiao'er, the reason why she hurt the boss must be because her mother-in-law's death came too suddenly, and it hit Sister Xiao'er too hard, I think someone must be in the middle of it to stir up the feelings between us, Sister Xiao'er has always been the most reasonable person, and will never hurt innocent people for no reason, boss, I beg you, let me investigate this whole thing!" Xue Ru looked at Nangong Ling's eyes and said.
"Xiaoxue, I feel that this matter is not so simple, if you go to investigate, you may encounter danger, even the powerful Xiao'er mother-in-law has not survived, let alone you!" Nangong Ling looked worried.
"Boss, don't worry, I will exercise myself every day, I will make myself stronger and stronger, I promise that I will be safe, please boss, let me go!" Xue Ru nervously assured Nangong Ling that she would not be injured.
"Alas, even if you say so, I'm still not at ease, so let's go, it's okay to let you go, but you must let Long Yi and Zhou Rou accompany you, otherwise, I won't allow you to go." Nangong Ling said to Xue Ru.
"Yes, sir, and, thank you, sir." After Xue Ru finished speaking, she lowered her head slightly, feeling that she had caused a lot of trouble for Nangong Ling, and she couldn't help it.
"Okay, Xiaoxue, you go to Long Yi and Zhou Rou, it's better to be careful in everything, you know?" Nangong Ling repeatedly told Xue Ru to be careful.
Xue Ru walked out of Nangong Ling's room and closed the door, she stood at the door of Nangong Ling's room for a long time, maybe Xue Ru was a little worried about Nangong Ling's injury, after all, she was injured by Han Xiao, Xue Ru's heart was even more sad, and after a while, Xue Ru sorted out her mood and went to find Long Yi and Zhou Rou.
"Brother Long Yi, Zhou Rou, it's great that you're all here." Xue Ru hurriedly ran in the direction of Long Yi and Zhou Rou, and said with a breath when she arrived in front of them.
"Xiaoxue, what's wrong? Look at what makes you gasp, is there something urgent? Long Yi said with a hand on Xue Ru's shoulder.
"Yes, Xiaoxue, let's go back to the room and sit down first!" Zhou Rou took Xue Ru's hand and looked at Long Yi and said.
"Well, it's close to my room, so let's go to my place first!" Long Yi nodded and looked at Zhou Rou and Xue Ru and said.
"Come on in." Long Yi pushed open the door and looked back at Zhou Rou and Xue Ru and said. Xue Ru and Zhou Rou walked in front, Long Yi walked in the back and closed the door when there was no one around.
"Here, let's drink some water first!" Zhou Rou poured a glass of water first and handed it to Xue Ru, who was sitting next to her.
"Thank you." Xue Ru took the water cup and said.
"Xiaoxue, what the hell is going on?" Long Yi sat across from Xue Ru and asked.
"Brother Long Yi, Zhou Rou, I want to talk to Sister Xiao'er, and I want to investigate what is going on, why did Sister Xiao'er become like this? I've just talked to the boss about this, and he said to let you two go with me. Xue Ru said as she looked at Long Yi and Zhou Rou with a glass of water in both hands.
"Indeed, there are many doubts about this matter, why did Xiao'er become a dragon? Why did Granny Xiao'er die? Why did Xiao'er shoot at the boss? I always feel that this matter has been planned a long time ago, and I don't think it's so simple to find out the truth about Yin. Long Yi stood up and walked in the direction of the window, looked out the window and said.
"Yes, I never thought that Han Xiao would want to kill the master, and Han Xiao's mother-in-law's martial arts should not be so weak, unless that person's mana is very strong and strong, and it is strong enough to be comparable to the immortals." Zhou Rou also carefully analyzed the whole thing.
"It's just that there are too many suspicious points that I want to find out, I believe that Sister Xiao'er is a person, she will not shoot at the head of the house for no reason, there must be a misunderstanding here, so, Brother Long Yi, Zhou Rou, you will accompany me, right?" Xue Ru looked at Long Yi standing at the window with a pleading gaze, and then looked at Zhou Rou who was sitting next to her and said.
"Of course, Xiao'er is very important to me, irreplaceable, and I still have something to say to her, so Xiaoxue, don't worry, I will definitely accompany you to see Xiao'er." Long Yi walked over to Xue Ru from the window and said.
"I'm the same, my friend is in trouble, I must help, don't worry, Xiaoxue." Zhou Rou took Xue Ru's hands and said.
"Thank you, Zhou Rou, thank you, Brother Long Yi, thank you very much." Xue Ru looked at Zhou Rou in front of her, then looked up at Long Yi who was standing beside her and said, tears rolling in her eyes again.
"Xiaoxue, don't cry! If you shed a tear, I won't help you! Zhou Rou looked at Xue Ru, who was about to cry, and said mischievously.
"Hmm." When Long Yi heard what Zhou Rou said, he nodded, agreeing with what Zhou Rou said, as long as Xue Ru shed the first tear, he would no longer help her.
"Ah, why are you like this, Brother Long Yi, Zhou Rou, you are really bad." Xue Ru raised her head and let the tears that were rolling in her eyes slip back.
"Hehe, there's no way, who made you cry so much!" Long Yi said with a smile, and Zhou Rou also smiled secretly on the side.
"Really, you two don't want to make fun of me." Xue Ru pursed her lips and said, seeing Long Yi and Zhou Rou making fun of themselves, she was very unconvinced.
"Hehe, okay, I won't tease you, then let's go find Han Xiao early in the morning!" Zhou Rou smiled and said.
"Well, okay, it's still early, should the three of us go out and talk to each other?" Long Yi looked at the sky outside the window and said.
"Hehe, okay, since we entered the Heavenly Immortal Sect, we haven't seriously studied martial arts with each other!" Zhou Rou looked at Long Yi and Xue Ru with expectant eyes.
"Alas, let's go, I also want to see how much my swordsmanship has improved." Xue Ru got up and looked at Long Yi and Zhou Rou and said.
"Hehe, let's go, let's go and learn seriously." After Long Yi finished speaking, the three of them walked towards the door.
Long Yi, Xue Ru and Zhou Rou came to the creek not far from the Anyi Palace, the place is very spacious, it is the most suitable for testing swordsmanship, the first to start is Zhou Rou and Xue Ru, both of them are very gentle, comparable, both of them are practicing swordsmanship hard, Long Yi is admiring the swordsmanship of the two on the side, Xueru and Zhou Rou do not seem to have used their full strength, each other has reservations.
Next is the swordsmanship competition between Long Yi and Zhou Rou, the woman's swordsmanship is soft, the man's swordsmanship is rigid, although it is soft and rigid, but Long Yi's swordsmanship is changed, both soft and rigid, it is changed according to the strength of the opponent, it can be said that Long Yi's swordsmanship is the strongest among all the disciples of the Tianxian faction, and it can be compared with Nangong Ying, and Zhou Rou and Long Yi will definitely lose the competition.
"Alas, Long Yi, how the hell do you practice swordsmanship? If you have a secret trick, tell us! Zhou Rou put away the sword in her hand and looked at Long Yi with a smile and said.
"Hehe, there's no secret tricks, it's just up to you to understand the swordsmanship, each set of swordsmanship has more than one usage, oh, take your time to comprehend!" Long Yi also withdrew the sword in his hand and said to Zhou Rou.
"Hehe, Brother Long Yi, I think you are too smart." Xue Ru walked up to Long Yi and Zhou Rou and laughed at Long Yi.
"Hehe, Xiaoxue, don't laugh either, it's your turn!" Long Yi looked at Xue Ru and said.
"Hehe, Brother Long Yi, you have to be merciful!" Xue Ru pulled out her sword and said.
"Don't worry, I'll be merciful to your men." Long Yi also pulled out his sword and said.
Long Yi and Xue Ru's swordsmanship competition began, dozens of moves passed, the two of them were on par, Xue Ru faced a master like Long Yi so that he had to use all his strength to fight, and Long Yi was at ease, Zhou Rou stood by and watched, instantly felt numb all over his body, had to admire them, Zhou Rou was fighting with Xue Ru, Xue Ru had not used all his strength, and now Xue Ru has reached the limit, I don't know when Long Yi will reach the limit, or he has no limit.
"Ah, Brother Long Yi, if you don't fight, I'm no longer good." Xue Rulongyi waved his hand to signal that he had lost, and sat on the ground looking up at the sky and panting.
"Hehe, this won't work, just your little ability, you still have to practice! No wonder the boss doesn't worry about you going to find Xiao'er alone! Long Yi walked up to Xue Ru, who was sitting on the ground and looking up at the sky, and said.
"Hmph, I'll beat you someday, we'll see, hmph!" Xue Ru looked at Long Yi standing beside her, rolled her eyes at Long Yi and immediately turned to the other side, closed her eyes and lay flat on the ground.
"Hehe, Xiaoxue, I can't see it, you're quite unwilling to admit defeat!" Long Yi squatted down and looked at Xue Ru and said.
"Long Yi, don't tease Xiaoxue, otherwise others will say that you are bullying the small with the big when they see it! Hehe. Zhou Rou walked up to Long Yi and Xue Ru and said with a smile.
"Zhou Rou, even you want to bully me, ignore you, hum." Xue Ru opened her eyes and stood up, and after speaking, she rolled her eyes at Long Yi and Zhou Rou.
"Huh." Long Yi and Zhou Rou glanced at each other and then lowered their heads and smiled.
"Hehe, okay, okay, don't be angry, we won't tease you." Zhou Rou stood next to Xue Ru, holding Xue Ru's arm with both hands and said.
"Okay, it's not early, let's stop here today, let's go back and freshen up and rest early, and gather here on a cloudy day." After Long Yi finished speaking, Xue Ru and Zhou Rou left the Anyi Hall and returned to their respective residences, looking forward to Li Yin's arrival.
