Chapter 111: Hengshan Sect
The two of them came to the courtyard behind the nunnery, only to see several trees cut off by sharp weapons. The back door opened, and the door panel flew out a few feet away. Xiang Yan walked towards the door. Qu Feiyan said: "Brother Yan, let's stay here for one night and leave, don't be nosy, right?" Xiang Yan smiled: "We have to find some wild fruits to come back to satisfy our hunger!" You can't just go to bed hungry, can you? ”
There is a small road leading to the mountains outside the back door, and after walking out of more than ten zhang, it will divide into two forks. The two walked to the path on the right, and after a short time, they saw hidden arrows and iron cones on the ground. The trail leads to a patch of hilly rolling hills. Qu Feiyan said: "It should be someone who attacked Shuiyue Nunnery, and the master in the nunnery fled to the mountains through this road." ”
The two of them walked forward again, and from time to time they saw hidden weapons and broken swords along the way, and there were still large dried blood stains among the grass. The mountain road became more and more dangerous, spiraling upwards and winding into the back mountain. After walking for several miles, there were rocks everywhere, and there was no road to be found.
Qu Feiyan frowned and said: "Brother Yan, it's not too early now, and the mountain road is not easy to walk, let's pick some fruits and go back to the nunnery!" Xiang Yan said: "The mountain road is so difficult to walk, there must be few people here in normal times." If we don't care, there are too many teachers in the nunnery, and half of them will be exposed to the wilderness. Let's look for it again, it's also a merit to help people collect their bodies. ”
After walking for a while, there was no road in the mountain, and there were no hidden weapons and blades to show the way. By this time, the sun had completely set, and the sky was getting darker. Qu Feiyan said: "Brother Yan, it's getting late now, let's go back first!" We'll come back tomorrow morning. Xiang Yan looked up at the old sky, then looked down at the mountain road under his feet, and finally said, "Okay." ”
The two of them walked slowly down the mountain. After not taking a few steps, Qu Feiyan suddenly pulled Xiang Yan to hide on the side of the road, and said softly: "Be careful, someone is coming." Not long after, a group of men in black came down the hill with buckets.
One of them muttered as he walked: "On a cold day, people can gather around the fire, but we have to hunt, fetch water, and cook, and we are so busy that we can't even eat meat." Another said, "Alas, who made us work badly!" Another person smiled and said: "You use the time you spend visiting Yihong Courtyard to practice swords, and the next time you go on a mission, you can roast and eat meat, and you don't have to hunt and cook." Everyone laughed.
The first person sighed again: "It's been so many days, we are all about to run out of food, how did those nuns of the Hengshan faction survive?" The crowd slowly walked away amid laughter.
Xiang Yan said suspiciously: "This is not the territory of the Hengshan faction!" How could the master of the Hengshan faction be besieged here? Qu Feiyan said: "It should be the master of the Hengshan faction who is here to place an order, and the robbers were involved when they besieged Shuiyue Nunnery." ”
Xiang Yan thought for a while: "In the original book, the Hengshan faction was only besieged once, could it be that this group of men in black is from the Songshan faction?" ”
Qu Feiyan said again: "Brother Yan, we can't live in the nunnery. In case that gang of robbers eliminated the Hengshan Sect's masters tonight, they would definitely not be willing to stay on the mountain until dawn. If they come back to the nunnery and happen to meet us, we are afraid that we will be in danger. ”
Xiang Yan said: "Fei Fei, Master Yilin, who saved you, seems to be from the Hengshan faction, right?" Qu Fei said: "Yes." Xiang Yan said: "I don't know if there is her among the disciples of Hengshan who are besieged, why don't we follow that group of black-clothed people to have a look?" Qu Feiyan said with a smile: "Why does Brother Yan pay so much attention to Sister Yilin?" Xiang Yan said: "She is a good person!" One more good person in the world is better than one more bad person. ”
The two quietly followed the men in black to the stream to fetch water, and then followed them back to the camp to see them pour the water from the bucket into the bucket.
Xiang Yan observed for a while and said, "The man in black has a very tight defense in the direction of the Hengshan faction in front, but he is very lax in the defense of our direction in the rear. Qu Fei said: "Normal." They shouldn't have seen anyone in our direction for many days, what else is there to guard against? ”
Xiang Yan said: "Their lax defense is just right for us. Depending on the situation, they should not attack the Hengshan faction's division before dawn, and we can take the opportunity to go back and find a way to get some sweat medicine and add it to their water tank. When the time comes, the masters of the Hengshan faction will naturally make them look good. Qu Feiyan said: "You don't need to go back to get sweat medicine, I have it on me." ”
Qu Feiyan took out a medicine bag from his body, and the two of them touched the camp, poured the medicine powder in the medicine bag into the water tank, and quietly exited the camp.
Xiang Yan said: "The man in black is cooking dinner, and there should be a lot of people poisoned." We went around and reminded the masters of the Hengshan Sect and asked them to pay attention to the situation here. Qu Feiyan said: "No need, let's go back directly." This group of black-clothed people won't wake up until noon tomorrow, and such a long time is enough for the masters of the Hengshan Sect to notice that the situation has changed. ”
Xiang Yan was shocked: "The effect of this sweat medicine is so strong? Does it last that long? He hesitated and said, "With so many people in black, it's impossible to eat together, right?" If someone doesn't get drugged and saves someone else, aren't we working in vain? I still said hello to the masters of the Hengshan faction, please pay attention to this side! Qu Feiyan said with a smile: "Brother Yan, don't worry. I used the sweat medicine recorded in the "Five Poisons Secret Book". If you can't wipe out all the people in black, then let the Five Immortals Sect close the door directly. ”
