Four hours ago......

The Desperate Valley Pavilion was silent, and the candles in Xiao Zhirou's room were dim.

In the haze, Yun Jianping, who had ice muscles and jade bones, and misty temples, was lying quietly on the bed, with an elegant posture and even breathing, as if the pain in her body had gradually subsided, and she was sleeping sweetly now.

At this moment, a stunning beauty as beautiful as a peach and plum and as cold as frost sat quietly on the edge of the bed. Qianqianyu's hand, which was like condensation, gently stroked Yun Jianping's forehead.

This woman is Xiao Zhirou, the ruthless valley owner.

At this time, in the dead of night, Xiao Zhirou took off the white veil, revealing a stunning face.

Like a hibiscus out of the water, it is handsome and elegant, exquisite. The years seemed to stand still on her face, but instead of leaving a trace of aging, it added a bit of affection to it.

Especially the ethereal fairy quality that seems to be revealed between the eyebrows, like a goddess, people can only watch from a distance, and dare not play with it.

By the dim candlelight, Xiao Zhirou looked at Yun Jianping who was intoxicated in her dream, and her bright eyes were sparkling, as if she was happy and sad.

Unconsciously, a crystal teardrop rolled down her white and flawless cheeks, and quietly fell on Yun Jianping's arm, causing her fingers to flick slightly, and the startled Xiao Zhirou hurriedly got up and retreated, for fear of disturbing Yun Jianping's good dreams.

Since Jiantai came back, she has been guarding Yun Jianping's side, and she is reluctant to leave for a moment.

Although Yun Chasing Moon has not yet spoken, blood is thicker than water, mother and daughter are connected, and whenever Xiao Zhirou approaches Yun Jianping, she can feel a strong and attached complex emotion.

This kind of emotional fluctuation from the bottom of her heart made Xiao Zhirou sure that Yun Jianping was her precious daughter who had been separated from her for many years.

"Ping'er, you've grown so big in a blink of an eye. ”

Xiao Zhirou stood far away, stood on tiptoe to look at the sleeping Yun Jianping carefully, and muttered to herself: "When my mother separated from you, you were still waiting to be fed in swaddling clothes......

As for this, Xiao Zhirou smiled with tears, and her heart was full of mixed tastes, and she couldn't say it.

"It's my mother, I'm sorry for you! blame me for being too selfish back then......"

Xiao Zhirou wanted to speak and stopped, every time she thought of this, her heart ached, and she was speechless sad.

"Fortunately, God blesses you and allows you to grow up safe and sound...... Xiao Zhirou wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes and smiled gently, "From now on, you are no longer a motherless child." Mother swears, I will never let you suffer the slightest grievance......"

Calming her thoughts, Xiao Zhirou walked slowly and softly to the bed, tucked the corner of the quilt for Yun Jianping, and looked at her with pity and pity.

"Click!"

Suddenly, there was an extremely faint sound outside the door.

Xiao Zhirou's eyes changed suddenly, and at the same time, her figure flickered, and she instantly swept to the door, and asked coldly, "Who is it?"

However, Xiao Zhirou's question was like a stone sinking into the sea, and there was still silence outside the door, and no one answered for a long time.

"If you don't show up again, don't blame me for being ruthless!"

With that, Xiao Zhirou slowly raised her right palm, and a thick and continuous ripple of energy escaped from her palm.

"Don't ...... Don't shoot. It's me!"

A weak, hurried voice came from outside the door, and then a rickety figure flashed outside the door.

"Who are you?"

Xiao Zhirou quickly put the white yarn in front of her, and said in a deep voice: "Report your name!"

"More than 20 years ago, the ruined temple outside Xiangyang City ......" There was a burst of intermittent laughter outside the door, "Miss Teng, do you remember?"

Hearing this, Xiao Zhirou's eyes changed suddenly, and an indescribable complex emotion quickly surged into her heart.

"Squeak!"

There was a soft sound, and the door was left and right. The scarred Jiang Yiwei stumbled into the room, stood unsteady for a while, and almost fell to the ground.

At this moment, Jiang Yiwei's body was covered with blood, his face was blue, his lips were purple, his shoulder was pierced by an arrow feather, and the blood was "gurgling" as if he didn't want money. The back ribs are sunken, and there are more than a dozen silver needles densely inserted into the left and right sides of the spine, obviously extremely injured.

"You...... You're ......."

"Out of the way!"

Jiang Yiwei ignored Xiao Zhirou's surprise, a relaxed smile squeezed out of the corner of her mouth, and asked rhetorically: "Let me ask Lord Xiao Gu first, you ...... Do you remember someone Jiang?"

Xiao Zhirou looked solemn and nodded solemnly: "Of course I remember! Back then, if it weren't for Jiang Sanye's kindness and letting me go, the three of us mother and son would have died in Jiuquan." ”

Hearing this, Jiang Yiwei's pupils shrank, and he said in surprise: "Mother and son?"

"Not bad!" Xiao Zhirou said bluntly, "Soon after you let me go, I gave birth to a son and a daughter. ”

"One son...... A woman ......," Jiang Yiwei muttered, "You mean...... You gave birth to a pair of dragon and phoenix fetuses for the lord of the mansion?"

Although she didn't want to admit it, Xiao Zhirou didn't hide it from Jiang Yiwei, so she nodded lightly.

"And what about them...... Ahem......"

As soon as the words came out, a large stream of blood spurted out of Jiang Yiwei's mouth. Without waiting for Xiao Zhirou to come forward to investigate, Jiang Yiwei hurriedly waved her hand and said, "Tell me first, the house master's child...... Are you still alive?"

"I ...... I don't know. ”

"What is this called?" Jiang Yiwei said dissatisfiedly, "You are their mother, how can you not know whether they are dead or alive?"

Xiao Zhirou frowned slightly, and asked rhetorically, "Why are you asking these things?"

"Don't you know?" Jiang Yiwei said excitedly, "Luo Hongxuan felt so guilty because of Miss Zhongli's affair that he injured himself with a wave of his palm, and he is still dying of life and death, and his life is in danger. If your son is still alive...... Ahem...... He is the second son of the Luo family, not only can he continue the incense for King Beixian, but he can also inherit the family business......"

"Phew!"

Suddenly, Xiao Zhirou's eyes were cold, and she said disdainfully: "Even if my son is alive, he will not recognize the thief as his father, let alone continue the incense for him, and be the heir of the Xianwang Mansion!"

"Teng Rou, don't deceive people too much!" Jiang Yiwei's eyes were fierce, and he scolded angrily, "Don't forget, when I promised to let you go, I just wanted to leave an extra bloodline for the mansion master." How can you ...... now?"

"Of course I won't forget!" Xiao Zhirou interrupted, "Back then, you chased and killed me all the way, vowing to kill me completely. In the end, you forced me into a ruined temple outside Xiangyang City, but when you were about to start, you found that I was pregnant, and under my bitter pleading, you finally felt compassion and promised to let me go for the time being. ”

"Yes! I only promised to let you go for the time being. Jiang Yiwei said, "Back then, I remembered that you were pregnant with the flesh and blood of the Luo family, and I couldn't bear to kill the killer in pain, and one corpse and two lives." Therefore I make it to you that when the child is born, you must kill yourself immediately, or I will leave your mother and child at peace forever. ”

"That's good!" Xiao Zhirou didn't seem to blame Jiang Yiwei, her tone was as flat as ever, "You are willing to let my child go, I am already very grateful, I am grateful, how dare I hope that I can also live in secret?"

"But you didn't do it, but you lived to this day!" Jiang Yiwei's eyes were fierce, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Teng Rou, you don't believe in your words, and you ...... backtracked."

"No, I didn't break my promise to you!"

"What?" Jiang Yiwei was stunned, his eyes full of confusion.

"After giving birth to a child, I entrusted them to a friend, apologized to my parents and said goodbye, and then left Jiangzhou, jumping off the cliff of forgetfulness, bent on ending my life. ”

"That ......"

"It's a pity that providence makes people. Xiao Zhirou continued to recall, "After jumping off the cliff, I failed to die as I wished, but was rescued. He taught me to forget the past and become a new person, and he taught me medicine and martial arts. Since then, I have changed my name and lived in seclusion in the Valley of Despair. As for Teng Rou in your mouth, she has actually died at the bottom of the cliff of forgetfulness. ”

"I see. ”

Xiao Zhirou's eyes were clear, her expression was calm, and she did not prevaricate at all, Jiang Yiwei knew this, so she didn't mess around.

"Since you don't deserve to die, I have nothing to say. Jiang Yiwei sighed, "It's just that paper can't contain fire after all." You are the truth about Teng Rou, and you have been seen again months ago. Do you know that because of your death and resurrection, Jiang has been put in a dilemma of life and death......"

"A dilemma of life and death?" Xiao Zhirou said suspiciously, "Could it be that the person surnamed Luo knows that you let me go without permission, so he wants to settle accounts with you?"

"No!" Jiang Yiwei hurriedly shook his head and said, "It's not the mansion master, the mansion master has a deep affection for you, how can he hope that something will happen to you?"

"Hmph!" Xiao Zhirou sneered, "If he didn't want me to have trouble, he wouldn't have sent a wave of killers to chase me back then, and he had to kill me." He was obviously afraid that I would ruin his reputation and that my appearance would cause him to lose the protection of the Wudang Sect, so he wanted to get rid of me desperately and clear the way for his good future!"

"This ......"

Hearing this, Jiang Yiwei couldn't help but look embarrassed, and stopped talking several times, as if he was very entangled in his heart.

"In short, whether my child is dead or alive, it has nothing to do with Luo Tianjin!" Xiao Zhirou said stubbornly, "But I have clear grievances, I will find an opportunity to repay the kindness of Jiang Sanye for not killing back then......"

"Not necessarily!"

Jiang Yiwei's face suddenly straightened, and he interrupted: "The grace of not killing back then, Jiang will ask you back today......!

After that, Jiang Yiwei's mouth spurted out a stream of blood foam again. At this time, the blood he spat out had turned from red to black and purple, and it looked very terrifying.

"What do you mean?" Xiao Zhirou was suspicious, "How do you want to get it back?"

"Don't worry!" Jiang Yiwei said bitterly, "I won't force you to commit suicide, with your current status and martial arts, even if I want to kill you...... I'm afraid I don't have that ability. ”

"Then you ......"

"Just now, your father went to the Longxiang Mountain Villa. Jiang Yiwei got straight to the point, "It turns out that the Holy Lord of Longxiang Mountain, Yun Chasing the Moon, was his righteous son. ”

Xiao Zhirou was not surprised, and said indifferently: "So what?"

"I'm not interested in the family affairs of the Teng clan at all...... Jiang Yiwei said weakly, "but I saw with my own eyes that Teng Sanshi gave Yun Chaiyue a Jiyuan Pill to help him recover from his internal injuries, and wanted to use his hand to deal with King Beixian." ”

"What?" Xiao Zhirou said in disbelief, "There is such a thing?"

"I'm already poisonous, and my life will ......not be long," Jiang Yiwei laughed at herself, "How could I make up a story to lie to you?"

"Then ...... you" Xiao Zhirou vaguely guessed a clue and asked, "What do you want me to do?"

"You also know that the lord of the mansion is seriously injured today and must not fight again. Jiang Yiwei said earnestly, "If Yun Chaiyue recovers from his injuries, the lord of the mansion will definitely die on the decisive stage." ”

"So ......"

"So I hope ...... Xiao Gu Lord can read on the love I once let you go......" The poison penetrated into his senses, his eyes became more and more confused, Jiang Yiwei held his spirit, gritted his teeth and said, "In the decisive battle, help the mansion master......

"Don't talk yet, I'll seal the acupuncture path for you, so as not to die of poison. ”

Xiao Zhirou's eyes changed, and she quickly swept forward, and made a few strokes on Jiang Yiwei's body, and poured a trace of true qi into his body to curb the spread of toxicity.

"Lord Xiao Gu, you promise me!"

"Third Master Jiang, don't force me!" Xiao Zhirou's eyes hesitated, and she slowly shook her head and said, "I can promise you anything, but let me help the surnamed Luo...... I can't do it!"

Hearing this, Jiang Yiwei couldn't help but show bitterness on his face, and suddenly a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, and he said: "This time, it is not only to help King Beixian, but also to help the Teng clan, the Central Plains martial arts, and even the Great Song Dynasty." ”

"What do you mean?" Xiao Zhirou was puzzled, "The surname Luo fought with Yun Chaiyue, what happened to the Guan Teng clan, and what happened to the Great Song Dynasty?"

"Of course, it's a big deal!" Jiang Yiwei bit the tip of his tongue, desperately trying to keep himself awake, and said urgently, "Do you know that Yun Chaiyue and Yan Wuji secretly colluded, and he fought for the leader of the martial arts alliance, and his real intention was to recruit the Central Plains martial arts for the Mongolian Great Khan, and then cooperate with the Tartars in an attempt to destroy the Great Song Dynasty." ”

"This ......" Xiao Zhirou was shocked and doubted, "There is such a thing?"

"I dare to swear to the sky, every word is true!" Jiang Yiwei said righteously, "Lord Xiao Gu, although you are called the master of the pagan religion, you are born with a chivalrous heart, and you don't want the Teng patriarch to be kept in the dark by Yun Chasing the Moon and become an accomplice of traitors, and you don't want the descendants of the Teng clan to be infamous as foreign countries for generations." Once the clouds chase the moon and succeed, the Teng clan in Xiangxi will be in danger! The martial arts of the Central Plains will be in danger! The Great Song Dynasty will be in danger! Ahem, cough ......"

Seeing that Jiang Yiwei's spirit was becoming more and more depressed, Xiao Zhirou hurriedly stepped forward to help.

When he was dying, Jiang Yiwei grabbed Xiao Zhirou's arm, and pleaded again and again with a trembling voice: "Lord Xiao Gu, you must help King Beixian in public and private! As long as you help the lord of the mansion survive this calamity, you owe me a debt of kindness...... This is the ...... of the two clearances"

......
