Carrying the sword into the rivers and lakes Chapter 9 Ferret Offerings

After many years, the two tyrants of the No Return Mountain got acquainted with each other, Gu Xiao rubbed the ferret's little head again and said, "You are not used to eating this meat with fennel and pepper, how about we catch one more in a while?" ”

"Giggle." The ferrets danced with their hands.

"Well, but I can't always call you a little guy, let's give you a name, what about me, my name is Gu Xiao, I'm eighteen this year, you love to eat roast rabbits, how about calling you 'little rabbit'?" Gu Xiao rubbed his chin and pondered.

"Sizzle" The ferret bared its fangs, bit Gu Xiao's cuffs and tore his head vigorously, expressing his dissatisfaction with the name "Little Rabbit".

"Yes, yes, this name is a bit too arbitrary, change one for another." Gu Xiao pulled out the sleeve of his shirt from the ferret's mouth.

"You are milky white all over, so you can be called 'Xiaobai'!" Gu Xiao nodded vigorously, as if he was very satisfied with the name he gave for the second time.

"Sizzle," the ferret's fangs ripped at its sleeves again.

"I also think it's vulgar, let's not call it 'Xiaobai'." Gu Xiao touched his sleeve and said distressedly.

Gu Xiao pondered for a moment: "In ancient times, there was a poem 'Treading the snow to explore the lonely fang, only the poets are together', I will fight with you, and I will chase you for a long time with the search for the snow of the seven fathoms, and you will not fall into the wind, how about it be called 'treading the snow'?" ”

"Giggle." The ferret stood up, tilted its head to look at Gu Xiao, and kept waving at Gu Xiao's two front paws, as if in agreement.

Gu Xiao saw that Taxue also praised his new name, got up and stretched his muscles, and pointed to Taxue in the direction of Caolu: "I've been out for a long time, let's go back together to see the master, Uncle Li, and then go catch the snow rabbit and come to me." Gu Xiao patted his shoulder.

I saw that Treading Snow did not listen to Gu Xiao's words, but turned around and walked towards the edge of the nest where Gu Xiao found it, and quickly ran to the nest, and after a while, I saw a cloud of snow flying out of the ferret nest under the boulder along the entrance of the cave, Gu Xiao looked puzzled, and got up to see what kind of reputation Treading Snow was doing.

Gu Xiao just walked to the edge of the nest, only to see the snow was gone, only to see the soil flying out in clumps under the snow, Gu Xiao leaned over to check the cave, only to see the snow only showing the milky white tail shaking outside, the whole body has been deep into the ground, and the two claws seem to be digging something.

Gu Xiao called: "Treading the snow, follow me back to the grass house, it has been too long for the right person to come out, Uncle Li will go back on his own, let's go back too, don't let the master and Uncle Li worry." "As everyone knows, the master and Uncle Li will not worry about him, the 'little overlord of the No Return Mountain', but they are worried about the fact that everything in the No Return Mountain, Gu Xiao will suffer again when he comes back.

Treading snow turned a deaf ear to Gu Xiao's call, and only drilled down vigorously, Gu Xiao was surrounded by snow treading in the clouds, so he had to wait patiently to see what Treading snow was going to do.

The time for a cup of tea passed, Gu Xiao was leaning on the boulder and waiting patiently, only to hear the small sound of the cave opening, Gu Xiao looked down, only to see Gu Xiao poking his head out of the cave with something in his mouth, and two black eyes were exploring Gu Xiao at the entrance of the cave.

Xiao hurriedly lay down, and with both hands picked up the snow floating soil that covered the entrance of the cave, only to see that the snow climbed under Gu Xiao with great effort, put down the things in his mouth, and quickly shook the milky white hair on his body that covered the soil, and the snow-stained soil flew away, and Gu Xiao covered his face in a hurry.

Finally dusting off the mud on his face, Gu Xiao carefully dusted the dirt on Treading Xue's body, and said: "Treading snow, what are you doing here, what's the matter, I heard that you want to follow me, and you have to take the hidden treasure with you, I'll see if you hide the meat of a hamster or a snow rabbit?" ”

After that, Gu Xiao looked down at the object placed on the ground under the snow, what was placed on the ground was not rat meat or rabbit meat, but a pitch-black leather-wrapped thing, although this thing was wrapped in leather, but it revealed a burst of murderous aura, Gu Xiao touched this thing, only to feel that the hair on his arm stood up, and the true qi of his body was lucky, and the true qi of Dantian Tsing Yi Jue suddenly rose to protect Gu Xiao's heart, Gu Xiao looked solemn, looking at the snow at this moment.

Treading Xue was standing up at the moment, his two front paws vigorously stirring the remaining dirt on the triangular head, listening to Gu Xiao ask what he was holding out, this Treading Snow shook his triangular head, looked at Gu Xiao with his eyes, and then looked at the pitch-black leather package.

Gu Xiao only remembered that stepping on snow is not like an ordinary ferret, and he chased it with light luck, so that the ice edge was a tool to stab it, and it could be easily dodged, this thing was accidentally leaked, containing true qi, and the family should be affected by this thing all year round, and gradually had a little true qi in the body, so it would not be like an ordinary ferret, and the reaction and escape speed were the same, at this time he looked at the snow and said, "Do you want me to open this thing?" ”

"Giggles," Treadsnow responded.

Seeing Treading Snow with clever eyes, Gu Xiao had to squat down, his hands were lucky, and he carefully brushed away the soil on it, only to see the black rope tied up all over the body, maybe it had been buried in the soil for a long time, or it had been washed by many years of rain, and the rope had been slightly decayed, Gu Xiao condensed his hand to untie the rope, and he would touch the rope, only to hear the sound of "clicking" and breaking on the ice surface of the river not far away, one by two, and then dozens of cracks appeared on the ice surface, and the cracks merged with a little bit in an instant, and exploded. The fish hiding in the aquatic plants were stirred by the real murderous spirit, wandering restlessly in the water, and some even jumped out of the water and were instantly frozen into popsicles by the cold weather.

In the grass house, Gu Jian, who had finished lunch, was holding a deerskin wine bag in his hand, closing his eyes to recuperate, feeling a monstrous killing intent from the mountains to the sky, Gu Jianyi was worried about whether Gu Xiao had offended the characters in the rivers and lakes when he was traveling, and he didn't stay long, only to see that the door of the grass house was rushed open by the sword intent, Gu Jian stepped out of the air, and rushed towards the killing intent.

Lao Li also felt the vision in the mountain, looked straight at Gu Jian and walked away, and muttered, "Who did the young master provoke at the bottom of the mountain?" Chased to the Mountain of No Return? It's really an eye-opener. Then he came out and chased Gu Jian in the air.

Gu Xiao was forced to retreat a few steps by this murderous aura, before he stopped his figure, and looked at the black leather package with a solemn expression, after the rope was loosened, the black leather package was naturally untied, leaking out the objects inside, this black leather wrapped in a pitch-black short blade, the short blade was simple and self-contained, the whole body was like ink, the blade was about a foot long, and the blade was like a flying stone falling to the ground, full of potholes, and the blade handle was integrated, only the ink color did not know what kind of leather wrapped the blade handle.

At this moment, the bursts of killing intent emitted by the short blade have made Treading Snow more frightened, hiding behind Gu Xiao and trembling, as if he no longer knows this thing, Gu Xiao was forced to break into a cold sweat in this winter day by the killing intent, at this moment, the broken moon behind Gu Xiao seemed to sense the master's predicament, and let out bursts of sword groans in the sword box, helping Gu Xiao resist this killing intent.

After hesitating again and again, Gu Xiao still reached out to hold the short blade, and in an instant, an ink-colored killing intent penetrated Gu Xiao Dantian from the palm of his hand, Gu Xiao Dantian's green clothes trick flowed in the dantian on its own at this moment to resist the short blade killing intent, these two true qi were chaotic in Gu Xiao's body, one ink and one green two true qi collided violently in the dantian, Gu Xiao's eyes were blue and one ink, and the two fought each other. Feeling the murderous aura of the short blade, the Broken Moon Sword behind Gu Xiao finally couldn't bear it, the sound of the sword groaning resounded in the sky, and the Broken Moon Sword came out of the sword box, like a touch of moonlight, and fell into Gu Xiao's right palm. At this time, Gu Xiao had already lost consciousness, only driven by the two true qi, unconsciously driven, like a marionette, Gu Xiao was holding the ink blade on his left and the broken moon on his right at the moment.

Gu Jian stepped into the air and followed the killing intent, his heart had never seen such a killing intent since he practiced martial arts, and he actually made himself feel uneasy, and at this moment, Gu Jianyi only thought about Gu Xiao's safety. After a while, Gu Jianyi, who rushed to the river along the murderous aura, finally discovered the source of the murderous aura, and at the same time found Gu Xiao, who was holding a blade in his left and right hands, and saw Gu Xiao's face blue and ink, and the dantian true qi rose like a big drum, Gu Jian's face was solemn, and he flew forward.

At this moment, Gu Xiao, who had already lost consciousness, had been brought into the illusion by the ink blade in his hand, Gu Xiao only felt that his body was in the dark, his body was like falling into the abyss, in the endless fall, Gu Xiao saw that there was a trace of brightness in the abyss, Gu Xiao reluctantly controlled his body to fall towards the light, and finally entered this light, Gu Xiao opened his eyes again, only to see the majestic palace in front of him, more than 10,000 armored warriors outside the palace were lined up on both sides, and a person in front of him was neither humble nor arrogant, wearing a robe, his body was like a gun, not in a hurry, and walking steadily, Behind him, a person trembling with a wooden box in his hand, like a bystander, followed the two through the congregation, stepping into the hall, looking at it from afar, a person sitting on the jade steps in the hall, wearing an ink-colored crown dress, embroidering the sun, moon and stars, mountains and rivers with gold thread on the crown clothes, the golden dragon entrenched on the crown clothes, he was mighty, sitting on the head wearing a crown, twelve strings of white jade beads before and after the crown, although the twelve white jade flowers half covered the eyes of the person, but he sat in the hall without anger and self-authority, and the majesty of the emperor on the body poured into the palace, Let everyone under the stairs shudder.

was watching, suddenly it was dark in front of him, like a continuation of the fragment, Gu Xiao looked at the scene in front of him again, he had become a person in a robe, Gu Xiao looked back, the person accompanying him had been cut into meat by the armor outside the hall, at this moment more than 10,000 armor soldiers were looking at him angrily, and the person sitting on the top of the palace was embarrassed at the moment, his sleeves were torn, holding a long sword, there was horror in his eyes and a different emotion looking at himself, Gu Xiao took care of himself, and found that he was weak, sitting slumped next to the pillar, holding a short blade in his hands, One of them was the inky blade that Treading Snow had given him.

The man in front of him who was wearing the crown and holding the sword, his frightened eyes gradually became firm, he screamed, and stabbed himself with the sword, Gu Xiao wanted to resist with his true qi at the moment, but he didn't have any strength around him, and he couldn't shout out the slightest sound in his mouth, so he had to watch the long sword penetrate his body, blood splashed, and slowly soaked into his clothes along his body, and after a while, the whole person was already immersed in blood.

"Ahh Gu Xiao woke up, looked down at his chest, his whole body was safe, there was no scar, he looked around, and found that he had returned to his room in the grass house, the Broken Moon Sword Box was lying quietly on the table not far away, the Tsing Yi had been washed and hung on the wall, and even the scratched part of the big sword had been sewn up.

Gu Xiao frowned, didn't he open the black leather wrapping thing with Treading Snow by the river, Gu Xiao looked at his left hand, and found that his left hand was still holding the ink-colored short blade tightly, maybe it was too tight, and his left hand was already white. Gu Xiao tried hard to recall what happened, and suddenly remembered to step on the snow, looking at the side, the snow was facing the sky at the moment, lying beside him and sleeping soundly.

Seeing that there was nothing to do in the snow, Gu Xiao breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "Little guy, you gave me this thing really..."

"Young master, you've been asleep for three days." Lao Li put the food on the table aside. Took the big piece on the table and draped it behind Gu Xiao.

"Xiao'er, when I rushed to your side in the mountains that day, you were already confused by the murderous aura in this blade, I wanted to use my strength to restrain this blade, but I didn't think about it, this blade killing intent is like a monstrous wave, and I can't subdue it, not to mention that this murderous aura has entered your body." Gu Jianyi spoke softly.

Gu Xiao listened to what the master said, looked down at the short blade in his hand, and at this moment he could no longer feel the slightest killing intent in the short blade. I only remember that I hesitated to pick up the short blade that day, and I don't remember anything about the future, but I saw in my dream that I seemed to be an assassin and attacked and killed the owner of the palace.
