Chapter Seventy-Five: A Chance Encounter at Night

Chu Xiuyang began to write a letter, Xu Huaigu and Yu Qin glanced at each other, decided not to bother anymore, and walked out of the tent together.

The night is as cool as water, and you can sit and watch the morning glory Vega. Tonight is cloudless, the stars are shining, and the stars in the sky seem to be about to splash to the world with the heavenly river, a good scene of tranquility and stability.

Today, the blood of war is still full of the blood of war during the day, and there is such a huge contrast at night, which cannot help but make people feel a lot of emotion.

Both of them were attracted by the view, and their steps invariably slowed down and took a leisurely and slow walk.

Since he happened to talk about Chu Xiuyang's brother just now, Xu Huaigu couldn't help but think of his parents.

At that time, he entrusted Yu Qin in his will, asking her to take Xu Huaigu's parents to leave Jiangyuan and go to a place where the war could not be affected, and now only Yu Qin knows the whereabouts of his parents.

Xu Huaigu looked up at the stars in the sky and asked her: "I saw it with my own eyes back then, Chu Xiuyang's brother Chu Wenze loves her very much, and he doesn't want her to be hurt in the slightest, it can be seen that the family affection that blood is thicker than water is still precious." Speaking of which, where did you take my parents? Yu Qin's tone was calm, and she comforted him and said, "Don't worry, since you and I have become Taoist couples, and I have no parents, I will naturally treat your parents the same as my own." When you wrote to me at the beginning of this year, I was sad, but I had to do what you had given me. Now they both live in the small town at the foot of Fuyao Mountain, and I have left them enough silver, and they are doing well. When you're ready to see them, let's go to Fuyao Sect together, and I'll take you to meet them. Xu Huaigu looked directly at Yu Qin and said seriously: "Thank you, I'm afraid this matter has cost you a lot of energy." Yu Qin smiled slightly: "What does it matter? I've said it all, your parents are my parents, and when I say these things, it looks like I'm an outsider. Xu Huaigu asked again: "Then have you told my parents about my death?" Yu Qin frowned, hesitated for a moment, and still nodded: "I said, after all, they also have the right to know about such a big matter." ”

"How are they?" Xu Huaigu's tone was a little anxious,

"What did they say?" Yu Qin slowly stopped, turned her head to look at Xu Huaigu, with envy in her eyes and a little lonely.

She whispered, "What else can I say?" Naturally, they are all sad and dying. Your father seemed better, but he blamed himself vigorously and scolded himself for not using anything, and your mother became more and more disgusted, and cried for days in a row, as if her tears were about to run dry. I accompanied them day and night for the past few days, for fear that if one of them did not pay attention, your mother would not be able to think of a short-term vision. How sad do you say they are the only one of their children? I kept persuading and persuading them for a long time, and they slowly got better. Yu Qin sighed in frustration, her eyes moistened, and said: "Pity the hearts of parents all over the world, knowing that the child is dead, it is grief-stricken." They also asked me where your bones were, and that they wanted to find a good place for you to be buried, and I didn't know how to tell them that you had died in a foreign land, and that you had died at the hands of monks, and that most of your bones were gone. When Xu Huaigu heard this, he had mixed feelings in his heart, and it was very unpleasant.

As a son, he has never fulfilled his filial piety for a day, and he has never only made them afraid. Xu Huaigu thinks that he is worthy of heaven and earth, but he is really worthy of his parents.

Yu Qin continued: "But then you wrote again to explain the reason. Knowing that you were okay, I was happy and immediately ran to tell your parents. They hurriedly said that they would come south to see you, and I persuaded them to persuade them. Your parents are almost fifty years old, from Fuyao Sect to Xingqing, thousands of miles away, where can they withstand it? I only said that I would go to see you for them, and promised that I would bring you safely to them, and then I came to Dayu Kingdom. Xu Huaigu came face to face with her, held her hand, stroked it gently, and said gently, "Thank you." It was rare for Xu Huaigu to speak softly like this, Yu Qin blushed slightly, and smiled shyly: "It's not all bad to say that you faked your death." At least I'm acquainted with your parents, and they approve of me. Later, when I was about to leave for the south, they said that when we returned, they would marry me in style. Xu Huaigu said with a smile: "Yin Zishi also said, when we return to the Fuyao Sect, Senior Deng will personally give us a witness, this is enough scenery, right?" Yu Qin lowered her head and said with a smile: "According to the temper of the Great Elder, he said that he was a witness, and he didn't know how to tease us!" In my opinion, it's better for your parents to be safe, please ask them. ”

"What's this? Senior Deng is always kind-hearted, teasing is teasing, and he will never harm us. I don't think it's as good as everyone has seen it together, it's good to do it lively! ”

"Cut, that's too far." When Yu Qin thought of the scene at that time, she was expectant and shy in her heart, and her ears were red.

"It's better to live the life you have now. I'm still at war with the demon clan, so no matter what, I have to fulfill my duties as a frontier first, and then make plans. ”

"What you're saying is that the war is still going to be tight." While the two were talking, they had already walked to the city wall behind Tanglin Pass.

It is close to the nearby mountains, so there is a dense wooded area through which a path runs into it, deep and far away, and it looks even more intimidating at night.

Xu Huaigu and Yu Qin were both monks, so they were naturally not afraid of any ghosts and gods, so they continued to walk inside.

It's all the quiet time they need to be alone, and if no one disturbs them, they'll be happy to spend the night.

Xu Huaigu said with a smile: "If this was put in the past, you would definitely not dare to enter such a forest at night, right?" If I really practice, it's still good, and even my courage has become bigger. Yu Qin glanced at him, turned her head and smiled: "Who do you look down on?" When I was still living in the Astragalus Mountain, the forest was deeper than this, and I went in at night. I remember one time when my father went hunting in the mountains and didn't return home on time, I was worried that something would happen to him, so I took a knife and went into the woods. Guess what happened next......"

"Shhhh......h

Yu Qin looked at him with a puzzled expression, while Xu Huaigu looked into the depths of the woods without blinking, pointed in that direction, and said, "There is movement there." Yu Qin's body trembled suddenly, and she also looked over there, but only saw the dense woods, and the rest was dark.

Yu Qin was a little scared in her heart, she put her hands tighter, lowered her voice, and asked cautiously, "Really?" It can't be a ghost, right? Xu Huaigu laughed softly: "Ghost? Ghosts are nothing to be afraid of, but if they are individuals, they are interesting. Let's go, let's take a look. With that, he pulled Yu Qin and walked forward.

Yu Qin thought that more things were better than less, and wanted to persuade him not to go, but Xu Huaigu was curious and couldn't help her persuade him.

Yu Qin had no choice but to follow Xu Huaigu's footsteps and go deep into the woods. Not far away, Xu Huaigu waved his hand to signal her to stop.

The two of them carefully hid behind a large tree, and sure enough, they saw a person standing not far from the clearing in front of them, looking at his figure like a young woman.

She vaguely held something like a small flying sword in her hand, she lowered her head and whispered something to the flying sword, then let go of her hand, and the thing flew into the sky silently.

"Whoosh" left Tanglin Pass. Yu Qin didn't dare to make a sound, so she sent a message to Xu Huaigu and said, "It seems to be a flying sword?" Xu Huaigu nodded, his eyebrows tightened.

He subconsciously thought of the worst outcome in his heart, this person was most likely a small worker, passing information on the customs to the outside.

If you put it this way, the two of them went out for a walk at night, but they happened to run into a big incident.

Besides, this person can use the Messenger Flying Sword, so he must be a monk, so the nature is even more serious.

"What did she just say to Flying Sword?"

"It's too far away for me to hear." Xu Huaigu was full of doubts, and secretly made up his mind that he must know the identity of this person.

After the woman sent the messenger flying sword, she stood in place, looking up at the bright moon in the sky through the gap in the trees.

She looked at it for a long time before she withdrew her gaze, turned her head and walked back slowly. As soon as she turned her head, Xu Huaigu suddenly saw her face in the dark night.

It was the person they knew, Fan Xuan of the Zixia Sect. What is she doing here alone? What did she say to the messenger flying sword just now?

Xu Huaigu wanted to rush to her immediately to ask for clarification, but obviously it was irrational, he could only press his temper and prepare to follow quietly.

Suddenly, a wild cat came out of nowhere and ran past Yu Qin's feet. Yu Qin's nerves were already very tense, and she was frightened by this wild cat, so she couldn't hold back and screamed out.

Although the voice was not loud, Fan Xuan was still a monk of the Six Realms, so he naturally heard it clearly.

"Who! Who's there! Fan Xuan heard the shouts in the woods, and immediately frowned, and hurriedly asked loudly.

The two did not answer, so Fan Xuan frowned, and walked towards the source of the sound step by step, aggressively.

Yu Qin glanced at Xu Huaigu guiltily. Xu Huaigu saw Fan Xuan approaching step by step, presumably unable to hide, so he simply dodged out from behind the tree, frowned and looked at her, and asked preemptively: "I still want to ask you!" In the middle of the night, what is your intention to hide in the forest and send a message flying sword outside the gate! Fan Xuan originally thought it was a soldier, but when he saw that it was Xu Huaigu, he was suddenly shocked, and the aggressive momentum went down.

Yu Qin also ran out from behind the tree, took Xu Huaigu's hand, stood beside him, and frowned at Fan Xuan.

Fan Xuan looked at Yu Qin, then at Xu Huaigu, and said in surprise: "Xu Huaigu, Yu Qin...... Why are you here? Xu Huaigu's face was grim, and he said coldly: "We came out for a walk, but it's you, what are you doing in such a secluded woods alone?" Reading the book and facing Xu Huaigu's questioning, Fan Xuan was obviously a little lacking in confidence, and hurriedly replied: "Me? I'm here to see the moon. ”

"Then what did you do when you sent the Messenger Flying Sword before? Did you know that this is a battlefield, and it's suspicious for you to do so! Fan Xuan suddenly understood why Xu Huaigu's tone was so cold, it turned out that he regarded her as a meticulous work!

Fan Xuan was in a hurry, and hurriedly explained: "No! I sent the flying sword to the Zixia Sect, and my master asked me to contact her from time to time to report her safety! If you don't believe it, you can go to the Zixia Sect and ask! Xu Huaigu sneered: "Your master is the most protective, no matter what you do, she will definitely have to favor you." I asked her, what can I ask? Fan Xuan's heart fell to the bottom all of a sudden, and she really couldn't wash it away when she jumped into the Yellow River.

She had to explain vigorously: "It's not like that! It's really just a matter of reporting peace to my master! I'm also a member of the Zixia Sect, and I've killed a lot of demon clans these days, how can it be a fine work? It's not good for me either! ”

"Huh...... Advantage? Xu Huaigu sneered,

"What's the benefit of doing things for the demon clan, isn't everyone very clear in their hearts?" Fan Xuan's expression became more and more anxious, and she wanted to explain, but she didn't know where to start.

The more this is the case, the more suspicious Xu Huaigu becomes. Yu Qin patted Xu Huaigu's hand, looked at him and said, "Maybe it's not as bad as you think, if it's safe, it's reasonable." Xu Huaigu's expression was solemn, he raised his head and glanced in the direction where the Flying Sword had left, and said coldly: "Fan Xuan, I will keep an eye on you carefully." If I find out that you have done anything suspicious, or if I find out that you have colluded with the demon clan, see how you and your sect should give an explanation to the people of the world! With that, Xu Huaigu turned his head and walked away quickly, Yu Qin glanced at Fan Xuan meaningfully, and also chased after him, and the two walked back to the gate side by side.

Only Fan Xuan's face was like ashes, standing in place like a piece of wood, unmoved for a long time, letting the darkness of the woods swallow her.
