The dark sky is far away in the sky above this flower forest mountain, tonight's quarter moon is covered by stratus clouds, the moonlight is hazy, but the sky is full of stars shining, like silver nails as brilliant, embellished with the sky.

Deep in the mountains and dense forests, there is no sound during the day, and in the middle of the night, it is even quieter, and the slight sound of breathing can be heard.

The mountain was foggy, and the mist was curling, shrouding Jun Weirui's body, and she was dressed in red clothes, dyed with some damp breath, which was originally a strong color, but there was also a trace of loneliness.

Jiang Li stared at his back, his heart was full of mixed feelings, some words were blocked in his throat, he opened his mouth, but he didn't say a word, he turned around and walked away with Luokui on his back, and gently stepped over the snow-covered dead branches, the sound was far away, as if snow was falling.

At the moment when Jiang Li turned around, Jun Weirui suddenly turned around, staring at the back of the two of them leaving, she bit her lower lip with some annoyance, her eyes were full of mist, and after a long time, she turned around as usual and disappeared into the vast night.

The place that Jun Weirui was referring to was a cave, which seemed to be a natural formation, and perhaps no one had set foot in this place for a long time, and the withered yellow weeds that were more than one person tall were shivering in the night wind, and the entrance of the cave, which was only half a man's height, was hidden behind the weeds, inconspicuous.

The two of them stopped in front of the entrance of the cave, which was far away from the place where they had just been separated from Jun Weirui, and as far as the eye could see, they could only see the dark night, and the pale white frost that swept the ground, and as for the low fence, the half-hidden wood door, and the crooked thatched hut had long since disappeared.

This place is really very secret, and enough to shelter the wind and snow, Jiang Li bowed his head slightly with satisfaction, secretly let go of a sigh of relief, patrolled at the entrance of the cave for a while, and then pinched a sharp decision, quickly submerged into the depths of the cave, half a cup of tea passed, and saw that there was nothing unusual in the cave, so he picked up the withered grass, carefully helped Luo Kui to bow down and squeeze in.

This cave is not big, the stone wall is uneven, there is no trace of water vapor around the dry, there is a perennial lack of water on the ground and the cracks that dry up, so look down, this cave is not very much like a natural formation, to a little trace of artificial excavation, look out from the hole, the withered yellow grass that is more than one person high will cover the hole mouth tightly, outsiders hit here to pass, if you don't deliberately pay attention, it is obviously impossible to detect this cave. With the withered grass in the way, the cold wind swept into the cave as if it were nothing, but there was no coldness.

Luo Kui sat on the edge of the uneven stone wall, the cold wind tossed in the mountains for a whole day, she had already been frozen, her breath was weak, her face became more and more white and bloodless, only to feel that her body was like falling into an ice cave for a while, cold through the bones, and for a while it was like a fire to roast, the flames burned her body, she raised her hand to wipe her forehead, and cut a pulse for herself, for a long time, she sighed in a low voice, how did she start a high fever at this time, before she could say anything, the cold and heat alternated one after another, accompanied by the sharp pain of tearing her limbs and hundreds of bones, she finally frowned tightly in pain, and sighed。

Jiang Li was originally going to the cave to carry firewood for heating, hearing this faint sound of pain, he immediately threw the firewood full of his arms to the ground, and pounced on Luo Kui, before he could speak, the rolling heat wave rushed towards him, he panicked, hurriedly took her hand, and lowered his voice and said: "Little demon girl, little demon girl, what's wrong." ”

Luo Kui barely opened his eyes, only to feel that his body was shivering with cold at this time, opened his lips that had dried up to the bloody wound, and said in a hoarse and dry throat: "I, I have a high fever." ”

Jiang Li was shocked, there was a high fever at such a time, which was already very tricky, and Luo Kui was now very strong, which made it even worse, and he died for a lifetime. He hurriedly let go of her hand, hurriedly caged a fire, thought of the bezoar in the baggage, and after rummaging for a while, boiled a thick bowl of dark medicinal juice, brought it to Luo Kui's lips, and said in a low voice: "Come, drink some medicine, just drink it." ”

Luo Kui's eyes were closed, and he only opened his lips slightly, letting Jiang Li pour the extremely bitter medicinal juice into his mouth, and then tilted his head, still looking like he was in a state of spirit, half dead.

Jiang Li couldn't help but feel anxious, thought about it and thought, and used huge stones to build a half-section of the wall at the entrance of the cave to cover the situation in the cave, lest it alarm the skullcap or other people and cause unnecessary trouble.

Then he picked up Luo Kui and hugged her into his arms, only to feel that the person in his arms was like a piece of red-hot charcoal for a while, and like a piece of frozen ice for a while, alternating between cold and heat, and even boiling him very much, but he never let go, only stared at the miserable white face as paper, his heart was unbearable, and he sighed.

Outside, there were dead branches that were overwhelmed, and the sound of falling was carried by the snow.

I don't know how long it was, Luo Kui woke up from the chaos, and found that the surroundings were extremely quiet, only the crackling sound of the fire, she had a splitting headache, and it took a long time to realize that she was lying in the grass in a sheltered place, sweat soaked through her clothes, but she didn't feel how cold it was, she reached out and touched it, first touched a silver and red flower coat, and then touched a gray squirrel carved silk cloak.

She was a little surprised, and when she looked up, Jiang Li was only wearing a thin moon-white middle coat, leaning in front of the fire, freezing so that the tip of her nose was red, shivering, suddenly the tip of her nose was sour, her throat was already down, and she shouted in a hoarse and low voice: "Jiang Li." ”

Jiang Li's figure was stunned, and he hurriedly climbed to Luo Kui's side, hugged her into his arms, and said tremblingly: "Little demon girl, you are awake, it's good to wake up, it's good to wake up." ”

Luo Kui struggled for a while, and saw that he couldn't break free, so he had to calm down, endured his headache and said, "Jiang Li, I, I have something to say." ”

Jiang Li noticed that her voice was solemn, so she let her go easily, but she still hugged her shoulders and whispered, "You say." ”

The spark burst, the light swayed, shining on Luo Sun's face, the red and white dazzling, it was so treacherous, she closed her eyes slightly, her heart was surging, she had already thought about tomorrow, as for the future, she also had an arrangement, while she still had the strength now, her mind was still clear, and she had to make an explanation. She stretched out her hand without hesitation, and suddenly there was a round master with blue rays in her palm, and there was a mist hidden in the bead.

Jiang Li was puzzled and said in surprise: "What is this?" ”

Luo Kui was silent, thought about it and thought about it, raised his hand and pulled out the silver hairpin in the middle of the hair, and his long hair suddenly scattered one after another, fascinating Jiang Li's eyes.

Jiang Li was a little distracted, and leaned over uncontrollably, her forehead against Luo Kui's forehead, and her eyes looked at her without blinking.

Luo Kui didn't dodge anything, only put the silver hairpin and the beads together, gently put it in Jiang Li's hand, and then put his hand together with both hands, and smiled miserably: "Jiang Li, if, if I am tomorrow, there is really no cure, you can, it is best to send me back to Yangzhou, if not." Her eyes were shining, she looked at Jiang Li's eyes fixedly, and said faintly: "You will send these two things to the Blood Branch." ”

These words are like a blunt knife on his heart, cutting very deep at a time, Jiang Li's heart keeps throbbing, he has never been so desperate as today, and he has never had such a deep sense of powerlessness, although the skullcap is in front of him, but everything is still like a floating cloud, and he can't touch it. He only felt a choke in his throat, and he couldn't say half a word.

Luo Kui breathed a sigh of relief, her eyes turned slightly, she opened her mouth and bit her fingertips, then pulled one of Jiang Li's hands, and wrote a few words in his palm, the words flashed faintly red, and suddenly disappeared into his hand, she calmed down, and whispered in her ear: "This is where the Yangzhou Branch of the Blood is located, you are the only person who knows about Zhengyang Dao, and you must not spread it." ”

The fire crackled softly, and the flames shone brightly, setting off an evil red on all sides.

Jiang Li finally came back to his senses, and together with the hidden handwriting in his palm, he held them tightly, looked at each other fixedly, and said firmly: "I swear here, I will never reveal the slightest secret of the blood, if you violate this oath, you will be punished by God." ”

Luo Kui was slightly stunned, he didn't expect Jiang Li to swear because of this, after all, Zhengyang Dao and Bloodthirsty Dao have had a long-standing grudge, and after this incident, it was expected that he would say it, and that bead also left her words, and the secret order branch hall to move out immediately, there is no room for loss. She leaned against the wall on her back, pondered for a long time, and exhaled fiercely, before she spit out a word with difficulty, like crying blood: "Jiang Li, Jiang Li, back then, what happened back then, it was me, it was me and Su Lingquan who couldn't stand you, if I, if I gave you back your life, I just beg you." She breathed a sigh of relief, choked in her throat, and was so angry that she vomited blood, unable to continue.

To this day, what she misses in her heart is still Su Lingquan, and she is still her blood faction, Jiang Li's heart is sour and bitter for a while, she wipes the blood from her lips with trembling hands, and mutters in pain: "Little demon girl, little demon girl, back then, back then, there is no need to say it anymore, I, Jiang Li, from now on, although, although." He choked up, and finally put aside those old things, only to be reborn from the dead today, gritted his teeth and said softly: "If I see him, never, never kill him." ”

The cave was silent, hearing Jiang Li's promise, Luo Kui suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, this way, she fought with her life several times, and it was today's sentence that she cherished her own life, but there were too many variables in tomorrow's events, and she still made the worst plan to entrust the things behind her.

The next day, a ray of morning light slipped into the cave, and the fire had long since burned to ashes and was completely extinguished.

Two men lay on their backs, one curled up in the corner with his eyes closed and half asleep, while the other stared at the other side of the wall and tossed and turned.

A night without words, a night of light sleep. Until the sky was twilight, Jiang Li suddenly woke up. He raised his head, but saw that the sky was already bright, and immediately got up in a hurry, wet his hands and brushed his hair in a bun, and threw a firewood in the past, which hit Luo Kui's head, and suddenly laughed: "Get up quickly, the time is delayed, if the skullcap runs again, then there is nowhere to cry." ”
