The smoke and dust finally dissipated, and Qin Ke's figure slowly appeared.

He looked really embarrassed now compared to before, and the dirty clothes that had rolled in the mud were now more torn, and a long tear ran from his shoulder to his waist, revealing his chest that did not look very strong.

A large scar heaved in his breath, like a silent and restrained angry dragon, waiting for the next time to roar.

And his tiger's mouth and wrist were constantly flowing blood at this moment, penetrating the hilt of the Bodhisattva's sword, dripping into the large pit that was shot out by the heavy iron arrow.

But even so, his eyes were still staring ahead, looking at Jebeg with "unbelievable" written in his eyes from afar, with a fierce momentum and even a little mockery.

Unfortunately, this posture lasted only two breaths, and then he let out a cry of pain, and hurriedly changed the Bodhisattva sword to his right hand, took out a clean handkerchief from his torn clothes, and began to bandage himself.

Jebeg's archery skills are still very terrifying, whether it is the prison-like arrow curtain and the heavy iron arrow that fell from the sky, it is enough to make the fourth master of the public loser die, but fortunately, he is not a public loser, relying on the perception ability of the wind vision, he still guessed the direction of those arrows in advance, and responded in time.

It's just that Jebeg's arrow is too powerful, and even if he tries to avoid the edge as much as possible to hit the back of the arrow, he is still shocked and scratches his wrist.

However, he fought to the cost of being injured and ruining a piece of clothing, and finally avoided the heavy iron arrow that fell from the sky.

"Anyway...... What kind of poison is this?" Qin Ke looked at Jebeg, knowing that he was injured at the moment, and it was difficult to shoot an arrow, so he calmly picked up an arrow from the ground with a slightly purple tip.

He was sure that it was poisonous above, but why did he run his qi and blood and didn't seem to feel any damage to his body.

Jebeg was equally shocked by this, and as a sharp pain rushed up from his body, he finally could not hold the bow, and the whole person fell to the quiver, and the remaining dozen feathered arrows were scattered all over the ground.

"Impossible......" Jebeg said tremblingly, "Why are you okay? Even if you dodge the Shen Iron Arrow, but the poison on my arrow is enough to poison anyone under the Little Grandmaster, why can you still speak?"

"Uh...... Huh?" Qin Ke was stunned at first, and then scratched his head a little confused, and said, "Is that so?" He even stretched, "You see...... Nothing to feel. ”

However, at this time, he suddenly realized something: his current body was already different from his original body, and he reshaped his organs and meridians with the power of the divine dragon, and purified the poisonous blood of the black dragon before he became a person again.

But it seems that in terms of the changes within his body, he is no longer purely human.

Although there are many poisons in this world, how many poisons can be more terrible than the poisonous blood of the black dragon?

So he will be a walking monster in the future? Qin Ke smiled bitterly, not knowing whether this was a good thing or a bad thing.

The war drums were beaten again, Qin Ke glanced sideways at Cao Pei's back as he was beating the drums, and his mind refocused on this duel, the barbarians on both sides were already silent, and the people were cheering one after another.

Jebeg sat on the ground with a dead face, looking at the figure that was getting closer and closer in despair, and pleaded in a low voice: "Immortal Heaven, don't ......"

Qin Ke's eyes were like torches, the Bodhisattva's sword was sharp, and Jebege's head rolled down from his shoulders in response.

The bloody blood splashed Qin Ke's head and face, and he couldn't help but jump in his heart, but he finally didn't make any dodge movements, and he didn't even blink his eyelids.

......

"Are you really not going to Canghai with me?" In the heavy snow, Cao Pei and Qin Ke beside him spoke slowly, their eyes full of unconcealable anticipation.

Canghai had already left ahead of schedule, it was said that there was some urgent military situation suddenly, and with Cao Meng's order, Liu De and Guan Changyu also left in a hurry, which made Qin Ke a little lost and helpless.

He originally thought that he could find out more about Master here from Liu De this time, and he also wanted to know more about Zhao Ziyun's past.

However, Liu De made a promise before leaving, saying that when he returned to Canghai, he would send him a letter to Jingwu, which was better than Qin Ke's personal trip to the north.

It's just that Liu De left a sentence before leaving, which is still lingering in Qin Ke's heart at this moment, making him a little confused.

"Don't look for your master again, maybe you can find him naively, but he may not be the master you remember anymore. You will understand later, but fortunately, you are still young and have a lot of time to find the answer. ”

He said so, but Qin Ke always felt that Liu De had hidden something and didn't say it directly, as for what it was that he didn't say directly, Qin Ke pondered for a long time and had no answer.

"Ah Ke?" Cao Pei looked at Qin Ke's stunned appearance and gently patted him on the shoulder.

Qin Ke came back to his senses, looked at Cao Pei and smiled apologetically: "Uh...... What did you just say?"

"You guy. Cao Pei also couldn't laugh or cry, and then sighed and said: "I mean, don't you really go to Canghai with me to have a look? We are brothers and sisters now, but we have to separate before we know each other...... In fact, even if you don't want to live in Canghai permanently, you can also take this opportunity to feel the feeling of galloping in the northern grasslands with me. ”

"Northern Grassland, Ah ......" If you want to say that you don't have any idea at all, it is definitely impossible, since leaving Daoxiang Village, Qin Ke has also grown a lot of knowledge, and gradually has a rough outline of the outside world, and has also gained a lot of joy.

How many times have he been ready to go to the north, anyway, Cai Yan has been clamoring to see the Great Wall that stretches for thousands of miles from the northern grassland, and it is best to climb over the Great Wall to the extreme north......

But since he got the Five Elements Sinan, neither he nor Gao Yishui could figure out how to use it, so he had to go back to Jingwu and ask Zhuge Wanling in person.

From the time he left Jingwu until now, too much time has passed, and he has only found such an artifact, counting the Biluo Sky in Gao Changgong's hand and the half-cut army enshrined in Jingwu Taimiao, there are only three pieces of barely enough, as for the whereabouts of the master, it is becoming more and more mysterious, which is really frustrating.

"Forget it. Thinking of these headaches, he quickly retracted the heart that wanted to gallop freely, and smiled helplessly: "Big brother, I naturally want to go, but unfortunately I do have to do things in the future...... When I have free time, I will definitely go to the sea to find you. ”

Strange to say, although he met Cao Pei for the first time today, when he really knelt with Cao Pei and said the sentence "I don't want to be born on the same day and month of the same year, but I want to die on the same day and month of the same year", he suddenly felt a real sense of closeness.

Although he and Cao Pei are not blood brothers, since they have really worshiped the gods of heaven and earth, they can be regarded as brothers and sisters, so they naturally have a sense of closeness.

Walking side by side along the way, Qin Ke also roughly understood some of the situation of his eldest brother, as well as his lofty ambition of "inheriting his father's will and securing the people", and he couldn't help but have a little more admiration in his heart.

And Cao Pei, of course, has been persuading Qin Ke to go north with him in an extremely sincere tone and assist him in doing things together, hearing that Qin Ke rejected him again, Cao Pei finally showed a helpless smile, and also understood that Qin Ke is not the kind of person who will easily change his mind, and sighed: "It seems that I mean not to move you, okay, you have what you want to do, although I am your eldest brother, I can't forcibly tie you back to the sea...... But don't forget the agreement between the two of us, but you must come to the sea to get together!"

"Definitely, big brother. Qin Ke pursed his lips and chuckled, stretched out his hand and high-fived Cao Pei, and asked, "That...... Big brother, what are you going to do next?"

Cao Pei said: "The order my father left for me was to take Jebeg's head and run all over the county, so that the people would know that I was not all burning, killing and looting, but a righteous army seeking peace for the people. You should know that what my father wants is to dominate the world, and he values the people's hearts more than the military killing. ”

Qin Ke nodded, he was amazed by this, this Cao Meng was indeed completely different from Xiang Chu.

Speaking of this, Cao Pei's expression became solemn, he looked up into the distance, and said, "My father has always been my role model, and what he has done in this life is by no means inferior to that Zhuge Prime Minister of Jingwu. In my opinion, even if Prime Minister Zhuge changes places with him, he will not do better than him...... Back then, my father was committed to being a righteous son, starting with a county, pacifying the north, and reclaiming wasteland to support the people, and now there are 100,000 iron horsemen in the sea, and the vast grassland is under control.

Speaking of this, he suddenly sighed with some regret: "It's a pity, I probably won't be able to be like my father in my life, and my father shouldn't have chosen me as his heir......"

"Why?" Qin Ke looked sideways at Cao Pei and said suspiciously, "Aren't you the eldest son, eldest brother?"

"My brother is the eldest son, and I am the second-in-law, speaking of which...... I am lucky to be the son of the world now. Cao Pei smiled bitterly: "My brother is the one who is most like his father, in terms of courage, mentality, essays, and political strategy, he is far superior to me, and he is a son of this life...... Ben is his, too. ”

"My father lost the battle that time, and my brother brought a team of men and horses to intercept the pursuers in order to let my father and me escape, and finally ...... Defeated and killed. ”

"To this day, I often dream of my brother's anxious look when he carried me on his horse, and he told me that no matter what happens, as long as I follow him, as long as he lives, I will not be harmed in any way. ”

"I was still young at the time, and I was so frightened that I couldn't speak when I saw the fire and blood all over the camp, and my brother killed more than a dozen people along the way and sent me to my father's side......"

Cao Pei lowered his head, his voice heavy.

After finishing speaking, the two of them were silent, and Qin Ke could only pat Cao Pei's shoulder to show comfort.

Cao Pei smashed a piece of ice that fell from the eaves with his toes, and pretended to be relaxed: "Okay, these are things of the past, since the eldest brother is no longer there, I always have to become strong and continue to protect my father for the eldest brother, and protect the foundation created by my father." ”

At this time, several Canghai cavalry came all the way, each equipped with two war horses, and the first one was holding a square box with one hand, as for what was inside, Qin Ke and Cao Pei naturally knew it.

"I'm leaving, I don't know ......when I'll see you in the future" Cao Pei grabbed Qin Ke's shoulders hard, stood side by side with him, looked at the red sun that was about to set in the sky, and said solemnly: "You have to remember that we are brothers, then I will protect you as a younger brother in this life, if you have any difficulties in the future, just come to me." I don't have a lot of stuff on hand, but if you want to, even if you take all the elite riders under my command, I'll take care of you. ”

His tone was sincere, which made Qin Ke feel a warm current in his heart, and he was slightly moved.

Qin Ke has never had the opportunity to enjoy the love between siblings, after all, his parents died tragically when he was a child, and his sister was ......

Later, although he was dependent on the master, he always regarded the master as an elder, and he was close with a sense of gratitude and respect. Cao Pei is different, he is a few years older, and the two of them stand together, but they really feel like a brother who is cold on the outside and hot on the inside, and a younger brother who is not deeply involved in the world.

"I see. Qin Ke nodded vigorously, "Big brother, you have to be careful." ”

"Be careful?" for some reason, Cao Pei's smile became a little strange, "I've always been careful, you don't have to worry about it." ”

He slowly let go of Qin Ke's shoulder, turned around and got on the war horse, looking at the long mountain road and the heavy snow ahead, Cao Pei took a deep breath, and finally turned back to Qin Ke and smiled slightly.

The sound of the horsewhip crackled in the cold wind, and the group disappeared like a wild dragon flying in the snow, and in an instant it had already run hundreds of paces away.

Qin Ke stood in place and watched for a while, a little stunned, and at this moment, of course, he didn't know the origin of the "emergency military situation", let alone the surging situation in Jicheng at this moment, which had almost become a monstrous flood......
