Time seemed to stand still in this moment, and the frosty moonlight illuminated this cruel scene.

Tears appeared in the corners of Zuoqiu Xun's eyes, Hua Rong was haggard, and helplessly stretched out his hand to grab the two who fell to the ground, but they were still a few feet away.

Just a stone's throw away, there is a separation between life and death.

Zuo Qiu Xun felt how powerless he was. I knew it earlier, I knew it was like this, I should never have accepted the task of assassinating the official, but what is the use of regretting it at this time? Yu Qin is still so young and innocent, she shouldn't die here.

Outside the city wall, Xu Huaigu heard the sound of fighting inside, he was so anxious that he clenched his fists, and his nails sank into the flesh and he didn't know it.

He knew that something must have happened to the plan, but he didn't know what had happened, and he couldn't do anything about it outside the walls, so he was really anxious.

But time stood still only for a moment, and it began to flow inexorably again......

But the expected punch didn't fall after all.

It wasn't that the old eunuch had sudden mercy, but that there was an object blocking the way of his fist.

The object was suspended in the air, emitting a soft green glow, and it was the turquoise hosta!

It is the mysterious hosta left by Yu Qin's mother.

As soon as the fatal punch fell, the hosta flew out of Yu Qin's chest on its own. That little bit of turquoise light shone, separating the old eunuch's fist and Yu Qin, that was the hope of life!

The old eunuch's face was surprised again, and his fist was even more difficult to score.

Zuo Qiu Xun decisively seized the fleeting opportunity, did not dare to slack off, and flew into Huang Shan and the others while the old eunuch was still surprised, grabbed the two and disappeared at the gate of the city that was dusty by the old eunuch's fist, and disappeared.

The hosta flew back into Yu Qin's chest with great spirituality.

The old eunuch obviously didn't expect such a treasure, and the killing intent in his heart was even stronger. If you don't turn the grass and eradicate the roots today, he will have endless troubles in the future!

He chased after him, and with a wave of his arm, his fist scattered with dust, revealing the open land, but he didn't see anyone as expected, and only the towering bluestone walls faced him.

Tricked! They must have a shrinking charm!

Outside the city, the neighing of horses and the voices of people driving horses were heard: "...... driving"

The old eunuch was so angry that he climbed the city wall and looked out, where he vaguely saw five horses galloping in the direction of the ferry in the night.

The old man was furious and angrily yelled at the soldiers of the city wall: "A bunch of waste! There are people outside the city who answer them, what do you think of the city gates? When men and horses are at the root of the wall, you will not see, are you blind? ”

A young general was scolded for no reason among the guards of the city, and he was also angry in his heart, and he also refuted loudly: "Who are you, what qualifications do you have to scold us for being a waste!" Except for the emperor, whoever goes to the city wall has to be honest with me! ”

The old man suddenly took a step closer, and a terrifying aura emanated, and said angrily: "Little rabbit cub, you haven't even come out of your mother's womb when I was fighting at the border!" What nonsense are you talking about here, hurry up and put the ladder and let me go out of the city gate to chase it! ”

The general opened his eyes disdainfully and said with some mockery: "You want to go out of the city at night? Okay, according to the law of the Great Yu Kingdom, show me the holy decree, and I will let you out. ”

The old man was very dissatisfied with his attitude, pointed at him with trembling hands, and said angrily: "Someone robbed the Xingqing Prison tonight!" They even escaped from the city, and the imperial city lost face! Can you take responsibility? ”

The general was surprised, his expression was finally solemn, and he knew that this old eunuch must be a martial artist sent by the imperial court to guard the prison, but he still said politely: "I don't bother you here, I'm still worried about how you will explain to the imperial court." ”

Then he waved his hand again, summoned the herald, and commanded: "Send me an order, send fast horses to the ferry at once, block the ferry, check all horses and pedestrians, and strictly prohibit any boat from entering or leaving without permission." Also, send troops to set up checkpoints in the upper and lower reaches of the Changyang River and Qishui to strictly check the passing ships! ”

The heralds immediately ran down the city wall, and the gates slowly fell, and immediately a large number of elite soldiers rode towards the ferry.

The old man was still vaguely uneasy, looking at the five black dots that were getting farther and farther away, frowning, as if he was thinking about something.

......

The morning light is faint, and the lush plains and woods are submerged in the sun. The birds chirped and sang, chasing from branch to branch, swaying slightly.

The withered yellow leaves are fluttering and falling, but they also look very beautiful.

The winter solstice has passed, but Xingqing is in the south of Dayu country, and the leaves are only yellow at this time, and they have not fallen. Thinking that Xu Huaigu and Yu Qin had just entered summer when they first came to Xingqing, five months passed in the blink of an eye.

Ignorant and ignorant when he first came to Xingqing, to settle down on his own ability, and finally got involved in this unwarranted disaster and was forced to leave Xingqing, Xu Huaigu turned his head and glanced at Xingqing again, with mixed feelings.

But remembering that Yu Qin was finally rescued in the end, he didn't dare to ask for anything more. I feel comfortable, I have never felt that the sun is so bright and moving.

Huang Shan, who was seriously injured on his back, his wound had been treated simply, and there was no major problem, but if Huang Shan's broken bones wanted to recover, it would take some time for him to be a monk of the Three Realms.

Zuoqiu Xun walked in front of him, she was just punched by the old eunuch, the injury was not serious, the blood at the corner of her mouth had been erased, and she was carrying Yu Qin on her back and hurrying slowly.

Yu Qin is still unconscious. Fortunately, Huang Shan helped her block a punch, otherwise with her ordinary body, she would have died. The old eunuch's punch on her back slashed the ground far away, and her clothes were torn apart and mixed with flesh and blood. Zuo Qiu Xun cut off her back clothes to expose her skin, otherwise it would not be conducive to wound healing.

The wound looks terrible, but it is only a skin injury, it is not life-threatening, and you can wake up after a while.

A tall horse with pure white fur spread joy around the two people on foot, and rubbed Zuoqiu Xun's cheek affectionately. Instead of being annoyed, she smiled brightly, obviously having a very good relationship with this white horse.

According to Zuo Qiu Xun, the white horse, the white sword, the white robe, and a pot of good wine are added, which is what a swordsman should look like.

The white horse had nothing but her lute and a large package on its back, and no one was riding on it. Zuo Qiu Xun was afraid of the bumps on the horse's back, Yu Qin couldn't bear it, so he walked with her on his back, anyway, it was not easy for an ordinary person to carry a sword cultivator in the Five Realms.

Xu Huaigu was happy, but he also had many different emotions in his heart. That day, Yu Qin's sentence "Xu Huaigu, I like you" really made him confused. He didn't know how to face Yu Qin who woke up.

Is his love for her out of the entrustment of his life-saving benefactor, or his own emotions?

Is it the love of a brother and sister, or the love of a man and a woman?

Xu Huaigu originally thought that he could see it clearly, but after thinking about it carefully, did he and Yu Qin have love between men and women? What a problem. What I experienced with Yu Qin in the illusion of Lethe River that day is still an illusion after all, can it be taken seriously?

Xu Huaigu didn't know.

Xu Huaigu is very solemn about this matter, if he mistakes his feelings and answers indiscriminately, it is indeed harmless to himself, but what about Yu Qin? may be a hurdle that she can't get over in her life.

Xu Huaigu definitely didn't want to see such a result, so he had to be cautious.

He looked at the people behind Zuoqiu Xun, and the past floated through his mind.

The first meeting on the bank of Qishui, three years of coexistence in the small village, displacement together, and finally in the bits and pieces of Xingqing.

What kind of feelings do you have for her? Xu Huaigu couldn't tell the difference for a while, but Yu Qin saw her own feelings very clearly.

It seems that the smarter Xu Huaigu has never thought carefully about Yu Qin, as if everything happened as a matter of course. And Yu Qin, who was ignorant on the surface, was obviously clear in her heart, and the veins were combed clearly and naturally by her.

Xu Huaigu fell deeper and deeper into his thinking, unable to extricate himself, and guilt slowly occupied him.

After all, he is no longer the person who can blow the wind freely by rolling up his trousers by the Ling River, touching small fish and picking up stones, there are some things that must be thought about, and he must think carefully and think about it again.

Zuo Qiu Xun turned his head and saw Xu Huaigu looking at Yu Qin behind him with a confused look, he felt very funny, and said mockingly: "Tut-tut, surnamed Xu, my sister Qin'er's back is so good-looking, you have to see your eyeballs?" Why don't I help you take off her clothes so you can see them? ”

Xu Huaigu couldn't stand her teasing, his face immediately turned red, and he twisted his head to the side.

Zuo Qiu Xun simply laughed insolently, and the hearty laughter reached his ears like a curse. The white horse seemed to be affected by her emotions, and also jumped and neighed happily.

Xu Huaigu was speechless in his heart.

There was a dingdong sound of a mountain spring in front of them, and the two of them walked there in unison.

The stream is not wide, more than two zhang, less than three zhang, and the stream can only reach the ankles. The water of the stream is clear and sweet, and the bottom of the stream is a variety of pebbles of various colors, large and small, square and flattened.

There was a small meadow by the stream, Zuo Qiuxun gently put Yu Qin down, sat cross-legged by himself, and faced her. Leaning her body against her, she took out the herb and carefully applied it to her back. Then he took out another bottle of pill and threw it to Xu Huaigu.

Xu Huaigu then fed Huang Shan one and threw it back. Zuoqiu Xun didn't eat it himself, so he put it away.

Xu Huaigu thought of the incident of escaping last night, and couldn't help but feel very proud.

Although last night's incident was very dangerous, fortunately, Zuoqiu Xun's last move played a role and bought enough time for the four of them. In fact, as the old eunuch vaguely guessed, the horses rushing to the ferry were just a disguise. They did not ride horses to the ferry, but walked from the root of the Xingqing city wall, all the way from the south gate to the northwest gate of the city, before leaving Xingqing and entering this forest, and then continued to the north without going to the ferry.

It's a good sound.

The white horse stepped into the stream and whispered his water.

Xu Huaigu also looked at the stones at the bottom of the stream, and couldn't help but think of the stones in the Ling River. At that time, he was just the one in the past after all, and he was really sad when he grew up.

But fortunately, there is still a river and lake.

Xu Huaigu's sword intent seemed to be about to erupt again, Zuo Qiu Xun was a little startled in his heart, and thought, "Is it finally about to break through the realm?" ”

The sword intent lasted for about a dozen breaths, and then slowly converged back.

Zuo Qiu Xun sighed in his heart: "It's almost, it's still a little." ”
