Chapter 67: Arrival
Huo Mian sat up, he had taken the repair pill, his body was still weak.
"What the hell happened just now?"
Qi Mingchen ate the last bite of meat and said, "We were ambushed by the Meteor Sect, and Li Dao is a traitor. ”
"Ambush? Mole? How could such a thing happen? Huo Mian said incredulously, "How could such a thing happen for no reason?" ”
Qi Mingchen did not answer, and quietly waited for the rest to wake up.
He didn't bother to explain one by one, and it would be more convenient to answer together when everyone woke up.
Soon, under the effect of the healing pill, everyone woke up one after another, only the elder was still in a coma, maybe the medicine was still working, or maybe the injury was too serious, and it seemed that he would not wake up for a while.
"Senior Brother Qi, now except for the elders, the rest of the people have woken up, can you tell me what is going on?"
Mo Xixi's tone was rarely much gentler, which was diametrically opposed to her usual cold and arrogant temperament, after all, she knew that a large part of the reason for her salvation was probably related to Qi Mingchen.
Qi Mingchen took the last sip of wine and said: "Actually, I don't know much, I only speculated that Li Dao was a person from the Meteor Sect at first, and I also heard that everyone with a quota would die, and I speculated that this operation might encounter an ambush, so I have been observing him in the later stage, and I probably guessed that they would act here." ”
"Then why didn't you tell us in advance?" Luo Mu asked, in fact, what he wanted to ask more was, why didn't he tell him in advance, after all, he had said so many things about the Meteor Sect before, and he should have gained some trust.
"I'm worried about complications." Qi Mingchen didn't explain much.
At this time, Li Ming spoke, "Who saved us?" There are more than ten corpses around, and the people who fight with us are also the strong people of the day after tomorrow, it is impossible to solve it with a few of us, not to mention that the elder was attacked by a sneak attack at the beginning, and our strength is definitely the last of the strong crossbows. ”
Li Ming's eyes were extremely complicated, with puzzlement and confusion, for him, he should be the one who should not be saved in the eyes of Qi Mingchen, no matter what angle it is, even if he is regarded as an accomplice to Li Dao's side, it is understandable.
As a result, he was rescued, and he was fed the pill by Qi Mingchen.
It's just incomprehensible.
"At the beginning, I paid a strong man to protect me secretly, and after this matter was resolved, the person has left."
Almost all of the problems were explained, and everyone knew that they all owed Qi Mingchen a life.
Mo Xixi walked over and said in a serious tone: "This matter is very serious, we must notify the head as soon as possible, the Meteor Sect's actions are so arrogant, it is obviously ready to tear its face......"
After she finished speaking, she looked at Qi Mingchen, her dark brown eyes filled with gratitude, "If it weren't for Senior Brother Qi, you sensed the danger in advance and responded in advance, we would all have died here." ”
"Yes, Senior Brother Qi, I really didn't expect you to think of this step in advance, it's amazing!" Huo Mian didn't care whether the elders and the young could talk about it, he was no longer low-key, and came to him with a light in his eyes, as if he saw someone who admired him extremely much.
Nan Ruiga, who usually behaved kindly, stood at the farthest place, and did not speak, with her head down, not knowing what she was thinking.
"It's the most precious thing I've ever had." Mo Xixi handed him a long brocade box, "Although it can't compare to your life-saving grace, it can barely make up for your loss." ”
Qi Mingchen took it and opened it to take a look, pointing to a golden necklace, which looked very exquisite.
"This is a magic weapon, which can help you speed up your cultivation when you are cultivating, it is an auxiliary type of magic weapon, although it is not ranked, but it is also a rare type, it was given to me by the master before leaving, I haven't had time to use it yet, so I'll give it to you now."
He had heard that the head of the sect was very fond of this only female disciple, but he didn't expect to send such a precious discovery, if it was converted into spirit stones, it should be able to sell tens of thousands of medium-grade spirit stones at auction.
"No need." He returned the artifact, "I can't protect this artifact now, I don't want to go through the experience of having my quota stolen again." ”
When Mo Xixi heard this, his eyes were fierce, "I promise that such a thing will never happen in the Canglong Sect, and no one in the sect will dare to do those dirty things to you in the future!" ”
"I'm sorry, I still can't take it."
Qi Mingchen doesn't want to have a deeper relationship with anyone, which often means trouble.
He understands himself, he is a person who trusts others easily, and if he allows others to come closer, he may not be betrayed as before.
Maybe it's sincere in the moment, but who can guarantee that it will always be sincere in the future?
This is also the reason why Qi Mingchen did not use his own pill when he fed them the pill.
Seeing that he insisted on not accepting it, Mo Xixi could only sigh and said, "I have never seen a person with such a character as you, and I can't even repay it." ”
"I don't need to reciprocate, the only one is demanding." Qi Mingchen said lightly.
"What requirements?"
"I hope that everyone will keep this matter a secret from others after they reach the Sword Pavilion forces."
Mo Xixi was puzzled: "Why?" Is there anything to keep secret? ”
Qi Mingchen said: "At present, the Meteor Sect has no scruples about doing things, and I am worried that if it is exposed to the Sword Pavilion, they will do even more irrational things. ”
“…… But why did the Meteor faction do it to this extent. ”
Seeing that he finally came to the topic he was good at, Luo Mu hurriedly walked to the middle and talked about the contradictions that had been hidden between the two sects in a vivid voice, which made the others stunned.
"Why does the sect keep hiding this kind of thing, and why does the Meteor Sect want to exterminate us?"
Nan Ruijia spoke, his expression was very indifferent, "Okay, there's no point in discussing these now, everyone else is fine except Li Dao at the moment, and we will continue to hurry when the elder wakes up." ”
That's when everyone ends the discussion.
At the fire, everyone did not continue to rest, and experienced that their lives were hanging by a thread, and everyone was in no mood to sleep.
Burning the fire, silently waiting for the day to come.
Although Mo Xixi and the others have woken up, the injuries on their bodies are still recovering, and they still look miserable from the outside.
There was no one to clean up the corpses around, and the smell of blood made everyone even more silent.
"Is there really going to be a fight with the Meteor Faction?" Mo Xixi asked heavily, "What will happen during the month that we are not in the sect......
There was no answer, and there was silence again, except for the sound of candle flames.
"Ahem, cough, cough ......" After a while, there was a violent coughing sound not far away, and everyone turned their heads to look and found that it was the elder who woke up holding his chest and coughing vigorously.
I saw that after the elder started, he looked around, scratched his head, and said, "Let's set off when it is dawn." ”
This sentence silenced everyone.
"Elder, do you remember what just happened?"
The elder coughed and said slowly, "It's not a big deal, just don't delay tomorrow's trip." ”
Mo Xixi wanted to say something, but was stopped by Luo Mu on the side, and said in a low voice: "The elder doesn't seem to want to care about this matter, let's not ask more." ”
Qi Mingchen on the side looked at the appearance of the elder, and also felt some doubts, this reaction was obviously abnormal.
At the same time, at the age of the elder, he must have experienced the conflict between the two sects, which is completely different from the Luo Mu who has only heard of it.
Obviously, the elder is not completely unaware, and such an attitude is very problematic.
When daylight came, everyone continued their journey and found that the horses were all dead.
"Fortunately, there are not many roads left, but Li Dao is dead, how to explain to the people of the Sword Pavilion after that."
Romu said distressedly.
"No need to explain, if you look at our current state, let's just say that we have been attacked, and no one will believe it."
"When the time comes, if I meet people from the Meteor Sect, I guess I can't help but go up and beat them." Luo Mu clenched his fists, "I don't share the sky with the people of the Meteor Sect!" ”
As long as they thought of almost dying under the conspiracy of the Meteor Sect, they were afraid for a while, if it wasn't for Qi Shenchen's anticipation and preparation, they really didn't know what would have become.
"Young people, it's better to hold back your temperament." The elder, who was sitting cross-legged and looked inscrutable, suddenly spoke, "If you want to live, stay in the Sword Pavilion desperately, don't go back." ”
After saying that, he stood up and took the lead in walking forward, leaving the other disciples to look at each other.
Qi Mingchen looked at the back of the elder and narrowed his eyes slightly.
"Elder, what do you mean?" Luo Mu hurriedly chased after him and asked, but it was a pity that the Elder Lu after him just walked his own way and didn't say a word.
The road that was originally planned to be reached in half a day was a day late, and everyone was tired and hungry by the time they arrived, not to mention that everyone's injuries had not healed, and the hardships on the road were indescribable.
Only Qi Mingchen, who was not injured, was not affected, occasionally helping with hunting and providing some food.
The only uncomfortable part is that the wine is gone, and I can only eat meat and drink alcohol, which is really uncomfortable.
Everyone left the forest at night and came to the sphere of influence of the Sword Pavilion, and as long as they walked into the town, the people of the Sword Pavilion came to receive them.
Everyone felt a lot more relaxed now, and Huo Mian couldn't help but say: "I can finally rest well, I really can't stand this blood-stained clothes." ”
Except for Mo Xixi, no one else brought a change of clothes, which caused their group of people to look like refugees who had escaped from somewhere.
As soon as he entered the town, he was met with strange looks from many people.
The town itself will welcome many members of the third-class forces, all of whom are the pride of the sect, and they look extraordinary in terms of dress and temperament.
This line of the Canglong Sect is in stark contrast to other sects.
The place of reception was very close to the town's official mansion, and there were other sects waiting, and when they came here, they were ridiculed.
It is worth noting that among the ridiculed sects, there are no people from the Meteor sect.
The expression of the Meteor faction was more shocked and puzzled.
