Chapter Twenty-Eight: The Night Rain and the Cold (I)

The summer day is like a child's face moody.

The men in Chang'an City all lay under the trees at night, shaking folding fans, bare-chested, touching the skin of their mouths up and down, like bellows burning in a blacksmith shop, blowing out.

Now this God, it is so hot that these men are lying under the tree, shaking a folding fan to wipe the sweat on their foreheads.

The heat at this time has exceeded the heat when I saw beautiful women.

Even if a few beautiful women are wearing tulle and their breasts are half-exposed, I am afraid that they will not have this mind at this time.

On the top of the hill a hundred miles away from Chang'an City, there were dark clouds, the sky seemed to be splashed with thick ink, gusts of cold wind blew, and there was a rustling sound in the woods. Outside the woods, which are not too dense, there is a ruined temple that has long been abandoned.

On the other side of the hill, there are some houses that have long been deserted. I think this ruined temple was originally a place of worship for the people, but later the people moved away, and the temple was also abandoned.

The night was too dark, and the wind gradually became louder, compared to the heat of Chang'an, it was a little cold here hundreds of miles away.

Xu Changan took Li Daoyi and Xiaobai to the broken temple, Li Daoyi shrunk his neck, always feeling wrong.

With Xu Changan, it is almost impossible to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages through calculation. Every day is anxious, for fear of some accidents.

He touched Xu Changan's shoulder, grabbed Xiaobai, and stuffed it into his arms.

Xiaobai screamed, and only then did he want to struggle, Li Daoyi said: "Don't make trouble, this Dao Ye is holding you, come to Dao Ye's arms!"

Xiaobai fell into his arms, and suddenly warmed up a lot, and Li Daoyi's heart also had a little confidence.

"You brother, these days in Chang'an, I don't think about how to recover my cultivation, even if I go to the Huixi Realm! You see now, I can fight the Huixi Realm, and I can even fight with the little grandmaster, but if it is useless, I can't fly with the sword, so I have to ride a horse and walk. If you let outsiders know, wouldn't it be shameful for my dignified little Heavenly Master of Tianji Pavilion and the high monk of Luohan Hall to run around on horseback?"

He babbled and said, as if he was complaining about Xu Changan.

Xu Changan ignored him, the two of them have known each other for so long, and they share life and death, and they are connected by the same fate, no matter how ugly they say, Xu Changan will not care. What's more, at this time, Li Daoyi just complained a few words, and in his heart he actually hoped that Xu Changan would resume his cultivation as soon as possible.

Xu Changan didn't care what kind of temple this was, looking at the sky, it was estimated that there would be a heavy rain later. He felt the darkness and entered the temple, then found some dry grass and dry wood, and found a fire fold from his bosom.

In Chang'an, it is naturally impossible to use cultivation to light a fire at every turn, so he also prepared a fire fold.

When I opened the fire fold, I was about to ignite the dead grass, when a gust of wind blew in, just blowing out the fire fold.

Xu Changan's face was solemn, but Li Daoyi, who was in the dark, did not notice it.

This fire fold is naturally different from ordinary people, even if adults want to blow it out, they have to get closer. After all, this thing, which is exclusively used by the palace, is naturally much better than those in the market.

The rustling sound outside the ruined temple became louder and louder, from the original wind blowing the leaves to the rain hitting the leaves, and now it was as if there was sand hitting the leaves.

But the woods are also a hundred meters away from the broken temple, and it is normal to make such a loud sound.

Xu Changan was holding the fire fold in one hand, and the other hand had already touched the hilt of the sword with light.

Li Daoyi also became alert, and asked in a low voice, "Is there a situation?"

Xu Changan didn't answer, both of them held their breath, and the "rustle" became bigger and bigger. Suddenly, Xiaobai in Li Daoyi's arms screamed, and a thunderbolt exploded in the ears of the two of them and a cat, and the sound of jade beads falling on the roof of the broken temple came from the roof, Xu Changan breathed a sigh of relief, and the hand holding Hanguang also let go.

This time, he lit the fire without incident.

Li Daoyi, who was in the firelight, glanced at Xu Changan angrily, with a little disgust on his face.

"I was so scared by you, I thought there was an assassin! ”

Li Daoyi listened to the sound of the rain, roasted the fire, took Xiaobai out of his arms, threw it beside the fire, and then took out some jerky from the baggage, handed it to Xu Changan, gave some to Xiaobai, and ate the rest himself.

Although he was also a monk, Li Daoyi had no intention of abiding by the rules and precepts of those monks.

......

Luo Ziang came to the courtyard, and Zhan Xu lived in the courtyard.

Although Xun Fa and Chu Shilian have not yet assessed him, the matter of letting him take care of Zhan Xu was decided by Qi Fengjia. These two ordinary scholars understood the severity, so they did not intimidate, let alone object.

Luo Ziang pushed open the door, Zhan Xu sat in a wheelchair, and there were two cups of tea on the table next to him.

A little guy hurriedly ran over when he heard the noise, and saw that Luo Ziang was about to ask a question, only to see Luo Ziang take out a token and shake it in front of his eyes, so the little guy was silent and hurriedly retreated. When I went out, I closed the door by the way.

This little guy is also a cultivator, but his cultivation is not high, and after Xu Changan left that day, he arranged for him to monitor and take care of Zhan Xu.

Zhan Xu glanced at Luo Ziang, and a trace of fear flashed in his eyes, but he quickly covered up the past.

He pointed to the tea on the table, and said calmly: "Master Luo, please tea!"

Luo Ziang was not polite, so he sat on the stool, picked up the teacup as if drinking, and drank it all.

"Okay, Zhan Xu, you know my identity, don't say it. ”

Zhan Xu smiled slightly, maintaining his usual gentleness and composure.

"Luo Gongzi, excuse me. ”

The corners of Luo Ziang's mouth pulled out a trace of curvature, flicked his big sleeves, and suddenly put it on the table, leaned forward, and approached Zhan Xu.

This action is extremely aggressive, and in the prison of the Criminal Department, older bad people will interrogate prisoners like this, oppressing.

"Have you sent someone to hunt down Xu Changan, it is not difficult to judge Xu Changan's whereabouts. He was originally a junior grandmaster, but now that he has been sealed, it is not difficult to return to the junior grandmaster. Before breaking through to become a grandmaster, go to the heart burner to ask your heart and find a good sword fetal material, this is the most important thing he should do. You only need to arrange the people in advance, and it is estimated that he will not be able to reach Tiejian Mountain. ”

Looking at Luo Ziang, who was squinting, Zhan Xu shook his head.

"I sent someone, but I didn't kill him. ”

Luo Ziang stared at Zhan Xu, and finally looked away.

"I didn't believe you, but I believe now. ”

Zhan Xu was shocked, as if the secret had been seen through, and glanced at Luo Ziang in horror.

"There is an old guy from your family sleeping in your body, the old guy has always had foresight and scheming, so I believe what you just said. ”

When Zhan Xu heard this, a cold sweat broke out on his forehead.

"Actually, I'm very strange, with your ability, if you really want to run, you will try it. You also know that Qi Fengjia is five big and three thick, so if you don't pay attention to it, you will run away? But you didn't even make a move to escape, although your legs were crushed by the grandmaster, but as far as I know, Xiang Liu has no feet. Of course, this is just a joke, and more importantly, you Xiangliu has a strong ability to heal himself!"

Luo Ziang said, and directly kicked Zhan Xu's foot.

The beads of sweat on Zhan Xu's forehead fell down in large pieces, I don't know if it was because of pain or nervousness.

"Hey, it's really not good. I said Zhan Xu, you are too ruthless, in order to stay in Chang'an, to prevent yourself from healing?"

Zhan Xu pursed his lips and didn't dare to speak.

The Luo family was already extremely experienced in them, and now Zhan Xu knew that he was wrong about what he said.

"Well, I said you're addicted to this wheelchair? You tell me the real purpose of the old man in you, and I'll let you out. Before, you didn't want to go out, but now that I'm here, you can't get out. ”

Luo Ziang's eyes narrowed, and there was a slug of essence in his eyes.

Zhan Xu was shocked, the silence around him was terrifying, Zhan Xu heard his heart pounding, and his eyelids kept beating.

With a "snap", a drop of sweat fell to the ground.

It was obviously just a drop of sweat, but both of them heard it clearly, especially Zhan Xu, the sound of this drop of sweat falling seemed to be louder than his heartbeat.

Perhaps it was the rain in the distance that brought a few dark clouds, and a thunderclap sounded over Chang'an, and Zhan Xu was frightened.

Luo Ziang squinted, pursed his lips a little boredly, stood up and stretched his waist and said, "Oh, Zhan Xu Gongzi, if you don't want to say it's okay, I'll always know." I don't have much interest in you, but the old guy in you is kind of interesting. Since I have come to Chang'an from the Western Quiet Land, let's move around more in the future, and I will come to see you often. ”

After saying that, he moved his body and walked out the door.

As soon as I stepped out of the door, a heavy rain brought coolness to Chang'an.

And Zhan Xu in the room was paralyzed in a wheelchair, his face was as white as a dead corpse!

......

The fire was suddenly extinguished.

The ruined temple, the sound of the rain, the two people and a cat waiting with bated breath in the dark.

The night was dark, and the rainy night without lightning or thunder seemed to obscure their eyes, though their eyesight was much better than that of mortals.

Xu Changan moved, but the target was Li Daoyi, who was sitting opposite him.

The light in his hand was handed forward and stabbed towards Li Daoyi!

Screams, sword light, and blood were scattered on the walls of the ruined temple.

At the same time as Xu Changan took out his sword, he quickly took out the fire fold and threw it on the firewood that had just been extinguished.

The firelight reflected the faces of the two, and Li Daoyi did not look back, frowning.

He patted himself on the shoulder and muttered to Xu Changan: "Remind me in the future, I'll dodge, otherwise you will have to pay me a piece of clothing." ”

Li Daoyi glanced at the wall, and saw that the blood had drawn the shape of a fan on the wall.

Xu Changan's Nunu mouth, who didn't care, nodded upward. Li Dao thought for a while, and the two of them raised their heads at the same time, only to see that there were seven or eight more figures on the beams of the house!

"Eh, are you just that Zhan Xu's water and clouds, the strength is not good!" Xu Changan has not done anything since he was sealed, but now that he has the opportunity, he is actually a little excited. Besides, he also wanted to test his strength.

These seven or eight people are all little grandmasters, so Xu Changan also seems a little relaxed.

"What bullshit, a few of you want your life today!"

The assassination was broken, and the leader no longer hid it, so he pounced on the two!

Xu Changan frowned, and said secretly in his heart: "Could it be that he is really not Zhan Xu?"

It's just that at this time, he didn't have time to think about it, so he could only raise his sword to deal with it!
