Chapter 158: The Willows and Flowers Are Bright

In front of Murong Xue and them was a cliff that was a hundred feet high. The huge mountain was abruptly fractured here, as if it had been chopped by the gods with a knife and axe, and it actually fell vertically, and there was not even a little grass and shrubs around it. Directly below the cliff, a large choppy river flows, and the sound of water rumbles.

At this time, it can really be said that there is no way forward, there are pursuers behind, and there is a desperate situation.

Li Bing's face turned pale at this moment, and he couldn't stop muttering: "No, this palace can't die...... Hongu can't die here......"

Shan Tingxian glanced at Murong Xue and asked hurriedly, "How are you water?" ”

Murong Xue was slightly stunned when she heard this, and subconsciously responded: "I grew up by the river since I was a child, and I still ...... It's okay, right? ”

Shan Tingxian nodded, and then said to Li Bing beside him: "Your Highness, forgive the offense!" Now please pinch your nose with one hand and protect your crotch with the other, yes, that's it......" He said as he helped Li Bing fiddle with the weird posture and continued: "Now close your eyes, shut your mouth, and clamp your ass groove, yes, don't let it go!" ”

After that, he grabbed Li Bing's collar and jumped off the cliff directly.

Murong Xue was dumbfounded on the spot, and only heard the screams of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince echoing in the air.

Immediately afterward, there was a muffled thud, and the river below immediately churned with a huge white splash.

My dear grandmother! Murong Xue couldn't help but exclaim in her heart, and watched in disbelief as the heads of those two people floated and sank on the surface of the turbulent river, looming, and quickly disappeared.

Shan Tingxian, count you ruthless! didn't even say hello, and dared to jump off the cliff directly with the Crown Prince of the Holy Tang Dynasty! Murong Xue was angry and admired the former deputy leader of the Jinhe Gang at this time. However, he didn't care about feeling any more, the pursuers had already forced to a place more than ten feet behind him at this time, and if he delayed for a while, he would definitely die. He quickly took off his royal blue crewneck robe, shook off his soap boots, and leaped off the cliff.

The feeling of being in mid-air was really uncomfortable, and even a master like Murong Xue, who was proficient in light skills, was almost dizzy. Fortunately, this feeling did not last long, and in the blink of an eye, he fell into the water with his head turned over.

A huge impact instantly stunned Murong Xue. His brain was blank, and he simply felt the pain, the heart-rending pain, but for a moment he couldn't understand what the pain was.

Murong Xue poured two mouthfuls of cold water in a row, and suddenly woke up, only to find that she was sinking to the bottom of the river. He hurriedly held his breath, used his hands and feet together, and flopped a few times, rushing to the surface of the water before suffocating to death.

At this time, Murong Xue was already far away from the place where she jumped off the cliff just now, which showed the rapid flow of this river. At the same time, he could faintly see a large number of Assassins gathered on the cliff, pointing at him.

Murong Xue knew that the other party had nothing to do with him for a while, and this little fate was temporarily saved, so she took a deep breath, made her body float on the water, and floated downstream along the river.

After soaking in the icy water for about half an hour, the river finally became gentle. Murong Xue cheered up and struggled to swim towards the shore. By this time, he was already exhausted, and as soon as he landed on the shore, he first lay motionless on the rocky beach, panting for breath.

After a long time, Murong Xue slowly raised her head and carefully looked at her surroundings.

They were attacked by an ambush at noon, and after a fierce fight, they fled now, and now the sun was about to set, and the sky was gradually getting dark.

This river beach is covered with fist-sized stones, surrounded by dense forests, and there is no trace of Li Bing and Shan Tingxian as far as the eye can see. Murong Xue couldn't help but become anxious in her heart, worried about whether something happened to these two people.

Thinking of this, he gritted his teeth and struggled to stand up straight, staggering forward along the river beach to search.

After walking dozens of steps with difficulty, Murong Xue suddenly remembered that her beloved iron-tired bow had been lost in the previous battle. A strong feeling of frustration and chagrin suddenly welled up in my heart. lost the crown prince, and lost the divine soldier passed on to him by his teacher, and hit Murong Xue again and again.

He suddenly fell to the ground, and the more he thought about it, the more miserable he became, and finally he couldn't bear it anymore, and cried bitterly.

"Huh? Why is that man crying? Suddenly, a crisp and pleasant voice sounded behind Murong Xue.

Immediately afterwards, another delicate voice said: "Yes, a big man is still crying, so useless." ”

Murong Xue secretly said in her heart, this is probably the two village girls in the mountains passing by here, and when they saw him shed tears, they couldn't help but be curious and teasing. He didn't bother to turn around and take care of the second daughter, just slowly stopped crying, staring at the river silently.

A series of light footsteps gradually came closer, and I only heard the voice that was the first to speak just now: "Childe, what's wrong with you?" ”

Since the other party opened his mouth to inquire, even if Murong Xue was impatient, he couldn't be too rude, so he turned his head to look and found a young woman with a handsome face standing in front of him, looking at him curiously at this time.

Murong Xue stood up with great difficulty, and said with a slight salute: "This girl, she accidentally fell into the water below, and there is no big problem at this time, Miss Lao has asked." ”

"I said how he got wet, it turned out to be overboard." A young and beautiful girl approached and smiled at the older woman, "Sister, it's so strange that so many people have fallen into the water today." ”

Hearing this, Murong Xuehu's body was shocked, and she hurriedly asked, "Girl...... What did you say? Someone else overboard? ”

The older woman smiled slightly: "Childe doesn't know. Our sisters have already rescued two people who fell into a coma just now, and now we are planning to take advantage of the fact that the sky is not completely dark, and hurry to the nearby mountains and forests to collect some herbs, so that they can decoction to ward off the cold. ”

"What about them?!" Murong Xue asked with a roar.

The two women were startled by his appearance, and the little girl said angrily, "Are you going to eat people?" Why are you yelling? ”

Murong Xue knew that she was out of shape, so she hurriedly restrained her excitement and slowed down her tone: "The two girls forgive their sins." The two people you saved may be companions below, so I was anxious and offended the two of them. Please also forgive your sins, forgive your sins. ”

Then, he carefully described the appearance of Li Bing and Shan Tingxian.

The older woman listened patiently, nodded and said, "Son, don't worry." Indeed, as you said, your two friends have been rescued by our sect master and returned to the villa, and there is no fear for their lives. In this way, Qin'er, you go to collect the medicine alone, and I will take this son to visit his friends. ”

The little girl said crisply, reached out to take the woman's bamboo basket, and then jumped away. The young woman saluted Murong Xue: "The slave family's name is Siyun, and you haven't asked what the son is called?" ”

Murong Xue hurriedly bowed his hand: "Don't dare to be, I will return to the surname Murong, Murong Xue." ”

"Master Murong, please come with me." Siyun smiled slightly, turned around and led the way, leading Murong Xue towards the mountain. The two of them walked along the rugged path all the way, although Murong Xue was so anxious that he couldn't wait to immediately fold his wings and fly to the side of the crown prince Li Bing, but Miss Siyun was always slow and leisurely, as if he was strolling leisurely, so that he had to slow down.

Murong Xue asked speechlessly, "Miss Siyun, I heard you say just now that it was your sect master who saved my two friends. Dare to ask what kind of sect you are? ”

Siyun said: "Let the son smile." In fact, we are not a sect or a gang in the rivers and lakes, just a small mountain villa. The former suzerain, that is, the old owner of the villa. When he was young, he was fascinated by the legends of various rangers and heroes, and went around to learn from teachers; In his later years, he became fascinated by the Taoist metaphysics of cultivating immortals and ascending, and began to study the method of longevity. Therefore, in the end, he simply changed the villa into a nondescript and peculiar sect, and took in a large group of ignorant little apprentices, who accompanied him all day long to fool around. ”

Murong Xue thought to herself: This rich old rich man is really good at playing, but he is also really boring.

However, people have their own way of living, and it has nothing to do with him, so Murong Xue didn't care very much, and continued to say: "I see, the old owner is really free and easy, which is enviable. You just said that his old man was the former sect master, so who is the current sect master? ”

"Three years ago, the old sect master went out to visit the fairy mountain," Siyun replied: "The current sect master is the only daughter of the old village master, that is, my young lady. ”

Murong Xue was stunned when she heard this, and asked, "Your sect master is a woman?" ”

Siyun's pace slowed down even more slowly, and asked Murong Xue rhetorically: "What does Gongzi mean by this?" Can't a woman be a suzerain? ”

"No, no, no, I definitely don't mean that." Murong Xue hurriedly explained: "Fang Cai is just a quick talker, and asking casually is purely unintentional. If you are rude, please don't be surprised by Miss Siyun. ”

Siyun smiled and said, "The slave family doesn't have a strange son, I'm just asking casually." ”

As they spoke, the two of them had come to the door of a manor. Taking advantage of the afterglow of the setting sun, Murong Xue took a closer look, only to see that this manor was built on a mountain, and the scale was extremely large. All kinds of pavilions and pavilions in the courtyard are stacked along the mountain, scattered, and under the cover of lush forests and bamboos, there is a unique style.

The outside of the manor gate was cleaned, and there was not a single trace of fallen moss on the bluestone steps. There is a pair of couplets engraved on both sides of the door, the upper one is "the loyalty and filial piety and benevolence and righteousness in the square inch of the Lingtai", and the lower one is "the oblique moon three-star foreign poems and wine books sword rise from the wind and clouds", the couplet text is vigorous, the skeleton is vigorous, and it looks extraordinary.

Siyun introduced to Murong Xue that this couplet was the handwriting of the old owner.

Murong Xue praised from the bottom of her heart: "Admire, admire." This couplet, whether it is the artistic conception of calligraphy or the pattern of mind, is unusual. It shows that the old owner is a master in the world. ”

Siyun nodded with a smile and made a gesture of please: "Childe, go this way." ”

At this time, the gate of the manor was not closed, and through the open doorway, you could faintly see that several houses not far from the door were already lit.

Murong Xue said politely, stepped over the threshold, and walked into the courtyard.
