Chapter Seventy-Three: A Moment of Leisure

The beetle snake fled far away, and no one could keep her, so she could only let her escape. Xu Huaigu ate the tail of the beetle snake, not to mention that the robe was scrapped, his body was still in pain at this time, and as soon as he sat up from the ground, he felt a tightness in his chest, and spit out a mouthful of blood.

The man standing beside him with a knife saw that he was only slightly injured and that he was fine, and without saying a word, he went back to kill the demons.

Xu Huaigu looked at the back of the man, as if it was the woman named Xia Ying in today's camp tent. She had some courage to dare to face the beetle snake alone, which could be regarded as saving him.

In addition to her, it is no coincidence that there are also those thunderclouds that gather. Xu Huaigu glanced around, and sure enough, he saw Fan Xuan standing not far away, also looking at him, but he didn't dare to get close and speak.

Xu Huaigu had a cold face, spit out two mouthfuls of blood, he was in a very bad mood, and he didn't leave the battlefield, so he rushed into the demon group with his sword and killed.

For a while, there was no big demon in the demon group who could stop Xu Huaigu, and every time Xu Huaigu made a sword, dozens or hundreds of demon clans would die under his sword.

Xu Huaigu was red-eyed, but he handed out one sword after another, and he didn't know how long he had been fighting before he felt that the offensive of the demon clan was gradually weakening.

The city gate was well guarded by the monks, the demon clan failed to break through, the flying demons in the sky were also dying under the attack of arrows, and the beetle snake was even more far away, and the demon clan could not capture Tanglin Pass today.

If you wait for the great cultivators of the Star Moon Sect to arrive, I am afraid that the entire army will be wiped out. There was a piercing gong sound from the rear of the demon army, which was about to withdraw the troops.

The demon clan army gradually retreated, and the army of Dayu also suffered many casualties, so there was no pursuit. In fact, the army was mainly injured by the flying demons, the city gate was not broken, the cloud ladder could not be built, and the ground army of the demon clan was still useless, and the casualties were good.

If the city gate is broken, I am afraid that in a few moments, there will not be a single living person in the Tanglin Pass. There was a gong sound in the Tanglin Pass, signaling to collect the troops, Xu Huaigu breathed a sigh of relief, and slowly walked towards the pass with the monks.

Yin Zishi quickly walked to Xu Huaigu's side from the side, and said worriedly, "Are you okay?" I saw that your previous fight with the beetle snake was really dangerous, but unfortunately I couldn't get out of the way at that time, otherwise I would have gone to help you. Xu Huaigu looked at the sword that was still dripping blood in Yin Zishi's hand, shook his head and said, "It's okay, it's just a small injury, it's just a pity that this robe is a pity." Yin Zishi held Xu Huaigu, and the two walked back side by side, but they heard a rush of footsteps, accompanied by crying.

Xu Huaigu hurriedly turned his head to look, but saw Yu Qin running over crying, rushed forward and hugged him, and whimpered: "Xu Huaigu, I thought you were dead!" Xu Huaigu's nose was sour, but he couldn't help laughing, and said with a smile: "What are you crying for, how can I die so easily?" There are more dangerous than this, if you cry once, won't the tears flow into a river? Yin Zishi also smiled and glanced at Xu Huaigu.

Yu Qin raised her head at this time, cried so much that it rained, and said, "How did you survive?" I saw the snake demon pumping its tail on you, and I thought you were dead! Woo woo woo ......" Xu Huaigu hurriedly comforted: "I still have a magic robe on my body, I can't die." I asked you to follow Yin Zishi well, did you listen? Yu Qin suppressed her tears with a face full of grievances, wiped her eyes, and nodded: "Well, I have a sense of proportion, and I will definitely not have an accident." It's just you, who worries me every day and blames me for crying. Xu Huaigu touched her head with a smile, and the group of three walked back.

Xu Huaigu looked around, and a lonely figure squatted on the ground not far away, taking a handkerchief and wiping the blade.

Xu Huaigu recognized that it was Xia Ying, and Xia Ying looked up at him. Xu Huaigu nodded at her kindly and smiled, which could be regarded as thanks, but Xia Ying was expressionless, lowered her head and continued to wipe the blade.

Xu Huaigu secretly said in his heart that this person is really withdrawn, and it seems that he has always been a loner and unkind.

However, her heart is not selfish, if she hadn't stood up and stood by Xu Huaigu's side at that time, I am afraid that Xu Huaigu would have suffered a big loss from the beetle snake, and she must have thanked her in person another day.

Yin Zishi seemed to suddenly remember something, and said on the side: "By the way, Xu Huaigu, Elder Deng has something to ask me to bring to you, I haven't had much chance to be alone before, so I will tell you if I haven't met." Xu Huaigu looked at Yu Qin beside him and asked, "But what is the secret?" Yin Zishi shook his head and said, "If it's a secret, then I'll definitely tell you as soon as I see you." It's because it's not that important, so it's dragged on these days. The Great Elder wants me to tell you that the battlefield in the south is suitable for tempering, and you can stay for a little longer, and you don't need to rush north, but you must take care of your life. If you can break through the realm again, when you return to the Fuyao Sect, she will have a gift for you. Xu Huaigu asked curiously, "What is this gift?" Yin Zishi smiled: "I don't know about this, but judging from the face of the Great Elder at that time, it won't be light." Xu Huaigu also smiled: "Senior Deng is also true, it is my obligation to go back to Fuyao Sect, and what kind of gift is not a gift, I will see the outside." The group of three happened to walk into the city gate, Yin Zishi was going to do something, and wanted to leave the two, so before leaving, he solemnly said: "Xu Huaigu, although you are not nominally a disciple of the Fuyao Sect, but what Elder Deng treats you, you should have a number in your heart." She has been confusing her disciples, although she has not explained, but she must have regarded you as her disciple in her heart. I've seen the way she looked when she learned of your death, resentful and wanting to avenge you, and blaming herself for not secretly sending someone to protect you. She expects too much from you, and this gift is not only a gift, but also a responsibility. Take the words of the Great Elder to heart and don't let her down. Xu Huaigu also replied solemnly: "I will keep the words of Senior Deng in mind." If you go back to Fuyao Sect before me, please also give me a message to Senior Deng, just say that if I am lucky enough not to die in the south, after I go back, I will openly and honestly apprentice to my seniors. Reading the book, Yin Zishi smiled happily: "Okay, good!" I'll help you bring that! Remember to take care of yourself on the battlefield, you will be a brother in the future! When you enter the sect, I will definitely invite the great elder to be a witness and hold a wedding in the Fuyao sect in a lively manner! Yu Qin blushed and pushed Yin Zishi several times.

Yin Zishi and Xu Huaigu looked at each other and smiled, said precious words to each other, and left. Yu Qin and Xu Huaigu were still walking side by side, and the two talked about what had happened in these days, and they didn't talk about any major things, only about some of the daily trivialities.

This moment of tranquility is the most precious thing for the two of them. When they walked to a secluded place in the pass, they sat down next to each other with their backs against the city wall, Yu Qin leaned her head on Xu Huaigu's shoulder, and the two whispered.

Xu Huaigu said with a smile: "Speaking of which, this General Chu in your Tanglin Pass is still an old acquaintance with us, do you still remember?" Yu Qin frowned, lowered her head and thought for a long time, and didn't remember what Xu Huaigu said, so she asked confusedly, "When did it happen?" Why am I not impressed at all? ”

"I don't blame you, after all, you have less contact with her, and I am more familiar with her." Xu Huaigu said slowly,

"When I came to Fuyao Sect back then, didn't I just catch up with a woman named Gu March kneeling at the gate of the sect, looking for that surnamed Jiang Bo Qinglang? Do you remember that? Yu Qin nodded slightly, and said, "I remember this clearly, after all, you were still in the sect at that time, and it was rare for us to get together." ”

"Then do you remember that at the door of your Patriarch Hall, there was a woman who wanted to forcibly rush into the Patriarch Hall to ask for an explanation for Gu Yueyue?"

"I remember this, didn't you wait for me on the path next to the Patriarch's Hall at that time? I still remember that you were misunderstood by many sisters at that time, and you talked about it for a while. Speaking of this, Yu Qin showed a look of memory and laughed stupidly.

Xu Huaigu continued: "That woman's name is Chu Xiuyang, and she is this General Chu. Yu Qin raised her eyebrows and was taken aback: "It turned out to be her!" Listening to you say this, their tempers are indeed somewhat similar. After being surprised, she smiled again: "There is such a coincidence in the world, you don't say that I really can't recognize it." But you said that you are more familiar with her, is it possible that there is another article? Xu Huaigu put his index finger to his mouth and gently

"Shh In the camp before, she obviously didn't want others to know. If you had known that I had told someone, you might have blessed me for my sins! This is a deliberate ridicule of what Chu Xiuyang said in the camp tent.

Yu Qin was so amused that she laughed, and hurriedly urged: "The two of us are on one side, you say, I definitely won't tell her." ”

"She, in fact, is the princess of Fusang Kingdom, the sister of Chu Wenze, the crown prince of the dynasty. But she didn't like the life in the palace, and she learned the art of riding and archery since she was a child, and every day, she thought about going to the south to fight and make a career like a man. ”

"But she is also the princess of Fusang Kingdom, how can she go to the battlefield? What's more, it's a foreign country. So once, she secretly ran away and fled. I didn't expect it, I haven't seen her for many years, she really went to the southern battlefield, and became a general. Xu Huaigu laughed as he spoke, Yu Qin nodded suddenly, but asked again: "Shouldn't this kind of thing be hidden from people as much as possible, how do you know so clearly?" Xu Huaigu smiled: "I'll tell you, you can't blame me." ”

"It depends." Yu Qin glanced at him with slanted eyes, and pouted,

"I don't know what's going on between the two of you." Xu Huaigu leaned close to her ear and said with a smile: "Because, I was the one who helped her escape in the first place." ”

"I knew it wasn't a good thing, and I knew it all the time." Although Yu Qin's tone was deliberately not very good, she couldn't help but smile in her eyes.

"That's all? Gone? Xu Huaigu spread his hands and said innocently: "It's gone, otherwise what else can happen?" Yu Qin nodded with satisfaction and said with a smile: "Then this is about the same." ”

"Eh, I haven't seen you in a long time, you should hold my hand, right?"

"You can just hold it, will it be difficult for me to run away? I don't dare to say what I do. ”

"Isn't that afraid you'll blush?"

"I blush when there are people, and now it's just the two of us, what are you afraid of?" Xu Huaigu smiled, and the cold touch came to his hand.

Although Yu Qin said two words of disgust, as soon as the hands of the two touched, she stepped up her strength, interlocked her fingers, and clenched them very tightly.

It was dark, and a bright full moon rose into the sky. However, in the corner where the moonlight does not shine, there is also a different kind of moonlight.
