Nearly two hours have passed since the old fox entered the imperial city and the curtain call of the palace battle.

In the evening, Lu Wedding stopped pranayama, and when she stepped out of bed, the rain gradually subsided, and the wooden window showed a faint twilight.

The battle over the palace lasted for a long time, and ordinary people in the imperial city could detect the different colors of heaven and earth, and her feelings were naturally deeper.

Ning Xiaoling brought her a basin of hot water, looked at her face that was gradually recovering in blood, and said in surprise: "With such a serious injury, Sister Lu recovered so quickly, what are the bones of the immortal's body made of?"

Lu married and said: "A cultivator's physique is his own sword, and his natural tenacity is unusual."

Ning Xiaoling nodded as if she didn't understand.

Lu asked the marriage, "What about your senior brother?"

Ning Xiaoling said: "Senior brother went to the Prince's Mansion to get medicine, and I don't know if Sister Tang Yu has returned." ”

Lu Yumari nodded lightly and did not ask who Tang Yu was.

Now night was approaching, and there was some fire burning in the house, and her cheeks looked white, but not as pale as the dead man before, but as pale as rouge covered with snow, and glowing with the softness that could be broken by blowing.

She bent her long hair again, put on a jade crown, picked up a silver hairpin, and pulled a lock of green silk behind her ear, and in the faint light, the crystal small earlobe was like a clear amber.

She looked at the girl who looked at her admiringly, and said, "Xiaoling, can you get me a pen and paper?"

Ning Xiaoling nodded as a matter of course, fetched one for her, and asked, "Sister is going to write a letter?"

Lu Married shook his head invisibly, and after the tip of the pen was moistened with ink, he quickly dropped the pen on the paper.

Ning Xiaoling looked at the handwriting with continuous strokes but dignified and delicate, and asked, "What is my sister writing?"

Lu asked "Have you ever been literate?"

Ning Xiaoling scratched her head a little embarrassedly: "My family background was not good when I was a child, and I was a girl, how could I have the opportunity to go to the school, I know some of Master's ghost painting talismans, but many of them are ancient characters, which have little meaning." ”

Lu married endlessly, but he seemed to remember something in his mind, and his other hand subconsciously touched the delicate mole in the corner of his eye.

She said: "This is not a big deal, the Sword Heavenly Sect has a special school, and the gentleman in it is very knowledgeable, so I will send you over when the time comes." ”

Ning Xiaolingqi said: "Sister Lu seems to be very sure that she can escape?"

Lu married and said: "I don't have a big grasp, but at least fifty percent...... Okay, you're done, you put it away. ”

The woman gently dried the ink, rolled it up, and handed it to the girl with a puzzled face.

"This is the method of sword breath exhalation of the Sword Heavenly Sect, the most basic and the most profound, no matter how you practice, you can't avoid this, and when you know how to read, you can practice. Lu married as if she had regarded her as his future disciple, "It's just that this thing is very precious and must not be passed on, if it is discovered, it will only add a few innocent lives." ”

Ning Xiaoling took the roll of rice paper full of notes a little ignorantly, and asked, "What about my senior brother?" ”

Lu was silent for a while, and said: "Actually, your senior brother's qualifications are very poor, this method of vomiting has very high requirements for root bones, if your senior brother cultivates rashly, he will only damage his body, and there is no benefit at all." ”

Ning Xiaoling was a little angry and said, "Wouldn't that have to be hidden from Senior Brother...... It's boring, and I won't study it anymore. ”

Lu married and said: "I am secretly writing to you at this moment, because I am afraid that he will be too careful, so as not to cause a gap in your brother and sister's hearts." ”

Ning Xiaoling tugged at her head and nodded listlessly.

Lu Marrying sighed: "This fate is like this, since you have fallen here, you don't have to feel guilty." This is the fate of the Great Dao, and when you cultivate to the long-life realm in the future, you will naturally understand more. ”

"Longevity Realm?" Ning Xiaoling was slightly shocked: "I can be as powerful as Sister Lu now in the future?"

Lu married and said: "Diligent cultivation may not take ten years. ”

Ning Xiaoling asked, "What about Senior Brother?"

Lu married and said: "Cultivation is cruel, he can always be your senior brother, but it can't be your eternal companion, your footsteps will be farther and farther, it's just something that will be experienced." ”

Ning Xiaoling held her chin and looked at the scroll of rice paper full of sword intent, her expression struggling.

She suddenly remembered something and asked, "What is Sister Lu's innate spirit?"

Lu was stunned, frowned, and said, "I don't have an innate spirit...... There is no one innate spirit, and there are no more than ten owners of our sect, and my master also regretted it back then, if I had an innate spirit, with my natural roots, I must have entered the first realm of the Purple Court. ”

Lu married and didn't tell her that her sword spirit body was something rarer and more powerful than the innate spirit.

Ning Xiaoling nodded, as if she was a little disappointed.

Lu Married felt a little inexplicable, so he asked, "What are you asking for?"

Ning Xiaoling said: "I heard the master say it before, but I don't know what it is, so I asked Sister Lu." ”

The woman nodded, didn't think much about it, didn't ask any questions.

Before Ning Changjiu came back, she stretched out her fingers and flicked the paper with the sword breath into Ning Xiaoling's sleeve, Ning Xiaoling was slightly startled, and finally did not make a sound, and silently accepted it.

......

After Ning Changjiu came back, he put his umbrella aside, and said with a solemn expression: "The old demon fox and Zhao Xiang'er outside the palace should have had a big battle, I don't know how to win or lose." ”

Lu married and pondered for a moment, and guessed: "That old fox should not have broken the palace yet, otherwise it wouldn't be like this." ”

Ning Chang said: "I'm a little strange, who released this monster?"

Lu Yuyao frowned and said, "Could it be those killers who came from the Jin Kingdom?"

Ning Changjiu guessed some secrets of the imperial city and said, "If this is the case, then they are digging their own graves." ”

Lu was puzzled and said, "There are not many people who have the ability to do this, can it still be Zhao Xiang'er who does it?"

Ning Chang asked, "Why can't you?"

Lu Marrying smiled bitterly: "She created a disaster for herself to destroy the country, and then put herself into a place of death, but she still has to fight hard, how can this make sense?"

"It really doesn't make sense. Ning thought for a long time, and the figure of Zhao Xiang'er holding an umbrella came to his mind that day, and asked, "I wonder if Miss Lu has ever seen her?"

Lu married and said: "I occasionally heard about it when I was practicing, but I came here today in a hurry, and I haven't had the opportunity to see each other yet, what's wrong?"

Ning Changjiu smiled: "I was lucky enough to meet her, I think she is like a ......"

"Like what?"

"Like a sober minx. Ning Chang said.

Ning Xiaoling echoed: "That sister was also very beautiful, but somehow, she was laughing, but she always had a feeling of rejection thousands of miles away. ”

Although Lu had never met, thinking that the little girl could guard the palace alone for nearly two hours, her heart was solemn, and she would not have any contemptuous thoughts.

"There is no point in discussing who did it at the moment. She laughed at herself and said slowly: "I thought that at most it was just a demon finch of the long-lived realm, but I never thought that I would be on the edge of the abyss when I really came here." ”

Ning Xiaoling also frowned nervously as she listened to their conversation.

Ning Chang asked, "Do you regret it?"

Lu married with a resolute expression: "What do you regret?"

Ning Chang looked at her and said, "Miss Lu, your health seems to be very bad. ”

Lu Married's heart shook slightly, and she said quietly: "Oh, what's wrong?"

Ning Chang said: "Your breath is a little heavier, and the sword intent emanating from your body is also a little scattered, it should be the cloud qi that connects the back and the two points of Baifu are shattered and shattered, if you can't channel it as soon as possible, it will be a great hidden danger for future cultivation." ”

Lu Zaimari was surprised: "Have you studied medicine?"

Ning Changjiu shook his head and said, "No, I can just see the crux of the problem, but I can't help you." ”

Lu was still confused, she didn't believe that ordinary people could see the problems of her body, and asked, "Your eyesight is naturally good?"

Ning Chang said: "I'm not good at this, but I've read some books, just now Miss Lu was meditating and pranayama, I watched it for a long time before I dared to make this preliminary conclusion." ”

"You're extraordinary. Lu married and asked curiously, "Then what are you good at?"

Ning thought for a long time and said, "I'm good at fishing. ”

"Fishing?" Lu Yuyu looked confused.

Ning Changjiu didn't explain much, he was silent for a while, and suddenly said: "Miss Lu, you have already taken half a step in the Purple Court, and now you have fallen back to the Longevity Realm, you may not be able to reach it in this life, how do you feel?"

Lu Zai's expression really changed this time, and her voice was slightly cold: "You still say that your eyesight is not good?"

Ning Xiaoling listened to her cold tone, and hurriedly persuaded: "Senior brother, what nonsense are you talking about, it makes people angry." ”

Ning Changjiu just looked at her quietly, as if he was still waiting for an answer.

Lu married with a proud look and said: "The long-life realm can't keep me, and so will Ziting in the future, I will worry about life and death at this moment, but I won't worry about the long-term future." ”

Ning Chang bowed his head and continued to ask: "If Miss Lu accidentally falls back into the Xuan from the Longevity Realm, or directly becomes a waste person who cannot cultivate, how would you feel at that time?"

Lu was stunned, and when she heard him say that her long life fell back into the Xuan, she actually felt some pain in her heart, which was a pain that only cultivators could empathize with.

After a long while, she spoke: "If I could, I would do it all over again, but life is only a hundred years old, and the only thing I worry about is whether I can stay in time." ”

Between the words, she looked at the young man in front of her with a sword eye, but she didn't find the slightest abnormality, is it really just this young man's talent?

In the depths of Ning Chang's eyes, the color of pain and sadness flashed, and he was silent for a while before he smiled and praised: "Miss Lu is really a sword heart, which is admirable. ”

Lu has never been high up and does not care about the world, but now he is praised by an ordinary teenager who is more than ten years younger than himself, and he has a strange feeling in his heart, and said: "I can't understand you, I can see that you have arrogance in your heart, although I don't know where this comes from, but it is by no means ordinary." ”

Ning Chang said: "There are many strange people and strange things in this world, if you can get out this time, Miss Lu might as well go down the mountain and take a look." ”

Lu married and said, "Although Master told me before that cultivators should not enter the world, but after this time, I am willing to try. ”

Ning Xiaoling listened silently, feeling that she couldn't insert a word, and when they were almost finished talking, Ning Xiaoling grabbed Ning Changjiu's arm and said, "Senior brother, you still tell me a story, last time you said you wanted to tell me the story of a poor teenager who quit his marriage, huh...... By the way, the story of the little Taoist priest you talked about before doesn't seem to be married, is the twisted melon really not sweet?"

Lu was slightly stunned, and then just smiled faintly, and her eyebrows returned to coldness.

She has never been interested in these human things, let alone the trail of family love.

Ning Changchang had a look of emotion on his face, and said, "If that little Taoist priest can choose again, he may agree to the marriage of that village." ”

Ning Xiaoling asked, "Why?"

Ning Chang said: "Because he has tasted the loneliness of more than 20 years of cultivation, he will always get bored of seeing the fireworks in the world from a distance for a long time. ”

In fact, in the memories of his previous life, sometimes it was a steaming summer, sometimes it was a cold winter with heavy snow, and in countless nights of bitterness in his cultivation, he did think many times about going back to the node of sixteen and making a new choice.

It's good to have one more person to accompany you.

It's just that the smoke has passed, and the girl he has never met has not been heard from again.

Now that he had been lucky enough to wake up in this body, I don't know how much time had passed.

Now what puzzles him the most is why there is a unique and unique atmosphere in this imperial city?

Could it be that the master's newly accepted closed disciple happened to be passing by the imperial city?

If that's the case, then it's a coincidence......

I don't know how the new disciple compares to himself......

Ning was immersed in his thoughts for a long time.

Listening to his words, Lu Zhenxiao shook his head slightly.

"I don't think it's good to get married. Ning Xiaoling muttered, she looked at her senior brother suddenly in a daze, stretched out her hand and shook it in front of his eyes.

Ning Chang said: "I remembered something else. ”

Ning Xiaoling wrinkled her little face and said, "Senior brother is always mysterious......

"By the way, Sister Lu is thirsty, I'll make you a pot of tea. ”

Lu wanted to refuse.

Ning Xiaoling had already gotten up and walked towards the door.

......

......

Outside the National Teacher's Mansion, the corpses were broken, the blood was like a river, and the fishy smell was soaring.

Since learning that the national seal was stolen yesterday, the old national teacher, who had been in a coma for a whole day, finally woke up.

The maid lifted him up tremblingly, and the old man stepped over the threshold, looked at the sky that never seemed to clear, and looked sad.

He knew that the old demon of the underground palace had been released, because he could sense that the share of national fortune he was carrying had moved elsewhere, and his body seemed to have moved to a mountain, which was much easier.

It's just that the situation has become like this, and his heart is getting heavier and heavier.

When he woke up, the massacre outside the National Teacher's Mansion had already ended, and when the guards trembled and roughly conveyed what happened outside the door, even though the old man had experienced so much, he still couldn't help but feel shocked.

"The people you are talking about...... All dead?The identity can't be mistaken, even the ghost in colorful clothes is dead?" The national teacher felt that he had not fully woken up.

The guard said, "There will be no mistake, it is said that he was ...... A ball of fire killed it. ”

"Flame ......" the old man pondered for a while, and said, "Is the witch master still alive?"

The guard replied, "There is a body on the ground, it is difficult to distinguish, but it is tentatively concluded that it belongs to the Witch Master." ”

The national teacher showed a wry smile, and he didn't know whether it was self-deprecation or sarcasm, "I've been fighting for most of my life, and now I should have been lucky enough to face the wind, but I didn't expect to go one step ahead of me...... By the way, what about the others, are there any casualties?"

The guard replied, "The dead are all the assassins of the Jin Kingdom and the monks of the Rong Kingdom, and the others are safe and sound, from the princes and nobles to the common people. ”

The national teacher nodded, but he was not happy at all, because he was sure that the ancient umbrella had also been swallowed.

Three spirits......

According to ancient records, if the four souls of the old demon are one, the power will change qualitatively again, and at that time, no one in the entire Nanzhou will be able to prevent this disaster.

"Xiang'er, how do you want to kill it......" The old man sighed, and couldn't help but think of the fire in the Qianyu Palace a month ago.

This fire haunted in his heart, and it was also this fire that made many people go crazy.

The old man sighed and said, "Go and count the corpses, and then withdraw the Great Array of the National Teacher's Mansion, don't waste Zhao Guo's luck, save Xiang'er a little." ”

The guards were given orders.

Outside the mansion where corpses were everywhere, the old demon fox had long since disappeared.

On the lips of the eagle beast of a tall building, the figure of the old fox reappeared, and this time, he chose the body of the man with the sword.

This is a divine soul that he separated, and the remaining two paths, he chose the body of the female killer, guarded the appropriate position outside the imperial city, and confronted Zhao Xiang'er silently.

At this moment, the figure standing on the top of the eaves looked at the hazy city from afar, with a cruel smile on the corner of his mouth.

He has suppressed the murderous spirit in his heart for five hundred years, although he has killed all those famous assassins, how can he really vent?

In this city today, all the people outside the Zhao Kingdom have to die.

Of course, the first to bear the brunt is the woman of the Immortal Sect who entered the sea like a mud cow after entering the imperial city, and disappeared.

It's so good to hide, but ......

"I found you. ”

The old fox grinned.
