When night fell, Bai Lushen came to the agreed place according to the time on the letter, and when he saw the lord of the brocade guard, he subconsciously looked at the other party, and then arched his hand and said: "It turned out to be Cui Deputy Qianhu in person, and I missed the distance below, please forgive me." ”

"Hey, the White Protector is polite."

Cui Yixiao waved his hand and said with a smile: "In the future, the person who will be responsible for liaising with the White Protector will be here, you and I will have more opportunities to work together in the future, and I hope that the White Protector will take more care of it." ”

"My lord is joking, I should say this next." Bai Yu tugged at the corners of his mouth, looking like he was not smiling.

"It's all my own brothers, don't talk about this, come, please take a seat."

Cui Yixiao set the meeting place in the private room of a restaurant, and he also understood the truth of darkness under the lamp, rather than looking for a sneaky person who did not see the light of day to arouse suspicion, it was better to be generous.

"Brother Bai, let's have a drink first, this is a good wine I brought from Beijing." Cui Yi smiled and said that he got up and filled Bai Yu with a glass, and then drank it himself first.

Bai Yu Shen saw Cui Yixiao drink all the wine in the cup, and he also picked up the wine glass, secretly checked it before drinking, and drank it with a smile after confirming that it was okay.

Cui Yixiao is not in a hurry to say things, but the other party drinks and eats food, chatting about the world, this is also the habit of the people in the court, and Bai Yushen is not in a hurry to ask.

After three rounds of wine and five flavors of food, Cui Yixiao put down the wine glass and said pointedly: "Brother Bai, there are a lot of people looking for you on the rivers and lakes recently. ”

When Bai Yu Shen heard this, he arched his hand and said: "Thank you for your concern, it's just that those juniors of the Wuyue Sword Sect are a little happy, don't you get in the way, don't you see that those guys in Wudang Shaolin are still silent." ”

Cui Yi smiled and said: "Dogs that can bite people don't bark." ”

"My lord is right, referring to Sang scolding Huai, but it is reasonable." After that, Bai Yushen and Cui Yixiao looked at each other for a while, and the two laughed together.

After laughing, Cui Yixiao took the wine jug, filled Bai Yu with a glass, and said as he moved: "Brother Bai, I can't hide it, I came this time, and I was also ordered by the above, and I have something to explain to you." ”

Bai Yushen's heart tightened, and his face did not change: "My lord, please command." ”

"It's not a big deal," Cui Yixiao said that he also poured himself a glass of wine, he picked up the wine glass, and said nonchalantly: "Recently, there have been a lot of things in the rivers and lakes, and that Tianquan of the Qingcheng faction is very noisy." ”

Cui Yi smiled halfway through his words, but it had already made Bai Yushen's heart sink to the end, he looked down at the wine in the cup, hesitated for a moment, and said knowingly: "What do you mean by ......?" ”

"This kid is unlucky, and he is remembered by our adults, so ......" Cui Yixiao and Bai Yushen clinked glasses, and then made a gesture to wipe their necks, everything was silent.

Cui Yixiao drank the wine in the glass, and Bai Yanshen's movements seemed to be a little heavy, he squatted on the wine glass, and did not drink it for a long time.

Seeing this, Cui Yixiao pretended to be puzzled and said, "What's the matter, Brother Bai, is there something difficult about it?" ”

Bai Yushen hesitated for a moment and didn't speak, Cui Yi said meaningfully: "I heard that although this Qingcheng Xiaodao Master is not famous, his martial arts are not strong. ”

After that, Cui Yixiao kindly hugged the other party's shoulders and said in a low voice: "Brother Bai, don't worry, after this matter is completed, I will definitely personally ask for credit for you, and when he returns in the future, you will wait for a thousand households, brother Tai can rest assured." ”

“...... Yes, since the adults have orders, then I should naturally share the worries of the adults. Bai Yu raised his head and drank all the wine in the cup, looking quite moved, but in fact, his eyes were full of heaviness.

Cui Yixiao didn't seem to see it, and pulled the other party to continue drinking.

After the banquet was over, Cui Yixiao left in a carriage that concealed people's eyes, while Bai Yushen stood in the cold wind, and most of the wine in his eyes quickly dissipated.

He looked up at the bright moon hanging high, and returned to the place where he was hiding with heavy steps.

After that, more than half a month passed, everything was still calm, and at this moment, the people of the Wuyue Sword Sect were about to chase to Beiyue Heng Mountain, Tianquan and Bai Yushen were discussing, it was time to set off.

The two dressed up in disguise and went north along the official road, avoiding people from all walks of life along the way, not afraid of walking slowly, but afraid of walking too fast and running into the Wuyue Sword Sect that had returned in vain.

The atmosphere along the way was a little dull, and in the past, although the two did not deal with each other, Bai Yushen would always take the trouble to ridicule Tianquan's chivalry with words, and the two always had something to say.

But now, the other party seems to have an extra person on his lips, and he has cherished words like gold along the way, but it has made Tianquan a little uncomfortable.

The two went all the way to the east, preparing to cross the Yellow River through Kaifeng Mansion, and then go north, on this day, Tianquan first came to the riverside ferry, found a boatman to buy each other's boat.

Tianquan is not necessary to waste like this, but unfortunately this season is not beautiful, a few days ago the heavy rain poured for the second half of the month, the Yellow River water flow soared, the already turbulent water is now even more life-threatening, ordinary people do not dare to go on the river at all.

Fortunately, it is not in the flood season now, otherwise I am afraid that it will not be as simple as the boatman not daring to cross the river, in fact, Tianquan's original intention was to wait a little longer, but Bai Lushen insisted on leaving, so he had to agree.

The two bought a boat, and they were ready to cross the river, seeing the river churning like a dragon roaring filial piety, crossing the river at this time was by no means a good choice, Tianquan frowned and followed Bai Yu Shen to board the boat.

Bai Yushen looked up at the sky, it was overcast, and seeing that the rainstorm was coming, Tianquan urged: "Hurry up, otherwise when the heavy rain comes, I'm afraid it will be dangerous." ”

Bai Yushen didn't answer, he sat at the head of the bed, and suddenly sighed for no reason.

"Boy."

Bai Yu asked a strange question in a heavy tone, and he said, "How old are you this year?" ”

Tianquan held the pole's hand for a moment, he glanced back at Bai Yushen, and then said, "Seventeen, what's wrong?" ”

“...... Amazing, when I was seventeen, I didn't have the skills of you. Bai Yushen rarely boasted, which made Tianquan feel a kind of confusion, uh, should it be said that he was proud.

Tianquan didn't know how to respond, he just silently did the work in his hands, Bai Yushen got up and walked over at this time, he stood behind Tianquan, raised his palm several times, but put it down again, and finally turned into a long sigh.

"Boy, as you said yourself, I saved you three times, and you also gave me back three lives, and now I have paid it back twice, and this third time, I don't need you to pay it back, today you and I will clear it up." Bai Yushen said suddenly.

Tianquan was stunned for a moment, he didn't understand why Bai Yushen suddenly said this, he turned back suspiciously, and saw the complexity and exhaustion on the other party's face, and at this moment, a muffled thunder sounded in the sky, and then, a few drops of light rain fell on their heads.

"Not good...... Hey, you can help too. Tianquan urged.

Bai Yushen looked up at the sky, but he was unmoved, he said in a low voice: "I said seriously, the account between you and me, it will be settled today, it is you who provoked someone who should not be provoked...... Don't blame me. ”

Tianquan didn't hear the dripping muttering of Bai Yu behind him, he just kept urging the other party to help quickly.

Bai Yushen took a deep look at Tianquan, and then slapped out a palm without warning, hitting the opponent's back, and the latter was directly seriously injured by surprise.

With a mouthful of blood spurting out, Tianquan's body also fell forward into the river, at this time a big wave hit, Bai Yu stabilized the boat, and then looked down, the other party's figure had been submerged in the river.

Bai Yu was silent for a moment, and then drove the boat to quickly cross the river before the heavy rain fell.
