Chapter Sixty-Nine: Nightmare Talk
A long-dilapidated temple became lively due to the arrival of the mission, Ji Jiu's eyes swept over the busy soldiers of the Iron Guard Battalion, his left hand rubbed back and forth on the hilt of the sword, stretched out his hand and patted Dong Yunzhou who was standing on the side and asked, "How many old people are there in the Iron Guard Camp now?"
Dong Yunzhou's eyes were gloomy, and he said in a deep voice: "This big battle has almost wiped out the family foundation of the Iron Guard Battalion for seven or eight years, good horses, good guns, easy to say, but it is difficult to train just a veteran who fights bravely on the battlefield." ”
"You know that the general is promoting generals, but you don't have any ideas as an old man next to the general?" Ji Jiu asked with a smile at the rough-looking man.
Dong Yunzhou scratched his head and was embarrassed to attach it to Ji Jiu's ear, and said softly: "When I was young, I was a village tyrant in the village, I didn't know a single word in Dou Da, and I couldn't even read military letters, where would I dare to expect so much. I only ask these soldiers to die less, this time I only transferred forty soldiers of the Iron Guard Battalion, I am not selfless, you are an understanding person, if you really meet a real master of the rivers and lakes, then they are not sent to death?"
Hearing your honorific title, Ji Jiu was startled and hurriedly waved his hand, saying, "Don't call me that and make me look like I'm very old, just call me Ji Jiu." ”
Dong Yunzhou stubbornly shook his head and said, "You saved my life and deserve this title." ”
Ji Jiu shook his head with a dumb smile and said, "It's not about saving your lives, it's more because I don't want to die, although this doesn't sound atmospheric at all, but this is the truth from the heart." ”
Dong Yunzhou said more firmly: "If you say so, you can afford it even more." ”
The two couldn't help but smile at each other, everything was silent.
The sunset leaves a touch of residual warmth, and the moon is full of stars, which is a rare good scenery.
Ji Jiu leaned against the broken wall, looked at Li Changnian who was sitting opposite him and had not yet slept with dim eyes, and asked, "Don't sleep yet, I have to hurry tomorrow." ”
"When you die, there is time to sleep. ”
Ji Jiu had already been tortured by his poisonous tongue and didn't feel it, and he didn't talk to him at a glance, but Li Changnian opened the conversation box and said, "You say that in the future, who in our generation can really stand out?"
Ji Jiu remembered the snow night swordsman with the sword "Big Jade" for no reason, sat up again, and said, "What do you think of this person?"
Li Changnian frowned, held back for a long time and said, "I haven't been beaten, I don't know." ”
Ji Jiu smiled dumbly: "You must have beaten to know?"
The latter looked serious, and replied without any joke, "From a person's moves, you can see how his character is, it is not unreasonable to practice martial arts and learn virtue first, and whoever enters the Sword Rain Building is not full of ancient classics." Martial arts are not separated, if you want to hold the sword in your hand, you must establish a backbone, otherwise it is nonsense in good talent. ”
Ji Jiu lowered his head and thought for a moment, then said, "Luo Xinghe lost to you because he didn't have martial virtue?"
"That's not it, Luo Xinghe is very strong, he should be able to beat me, as for why he lost, only he knows, not to mention sleeping. ”
Li Changnian didn't give Ji Jiu a chance to ask, and fell asleep on the side, and the latter turned over helplessly and fell asleep.
In the dead of night, cicadas chirp for half a summer.
Just when Ji Jiu was about to return to meet Zhou Gong, an extremely strong aura floated outside the broken temple, and he subconsciously opened his eyes and drew his sword, making a gesture of defending against the enemy.
He didn't dare to wake up Li Changnian and the others rashly, this aura was even stronger than Hong Shan, that is to say, the person who came was a genuine master of the Freedom Realm, and he could kill them all.
The breath was getting deeper and deeper, Ji Jiu's heartbeat was getting faster and faster, and the left hand holding the sword was soaked with sweat, which was a sense of tension and oppression that he had never felt before.
Out of the shadow came a handsome man with a rough face, he had a sword at his waist, sat down as if no one was around, raised his eyes and looked at Ji Jiu and said, "Don't be so nervous, I won't kill you." ”
"Lone wolf, Murakami O?" Ji Jiu slowly put away his sword and sat down cautiously.
"Did Ichiran mention me to you?"
Ji Jiu shook his head and said, "When you were eight years old, you helped me and Master leave Pingjing, your aura is very unique, I remember it for so many years." ”
Murakami smiled heartily and said, "At the beginning, Ichiran told me that you were a martial arts genius, but now it seems that you are not a genius, you are a genius of heaven." ”
"You've won a prize. Ji Jiu is well versed in the truth that if you say more, you will lose, and there are many questions in his mind, such as why Murakami Ageo, one of the four great grandmasters, came to find him, and why did he know the specific location of the mission? You must know that the whereabouts of the mission are strictly secret, although it is said that the masters of the immortal realm can truly perceive everything in the world, but it is far from reaching this level of accuracy.
These questions were all pressed in his mind.
"What are you worried about, are you worried that I'm going to kill you, or will I kill her?"
Ji Jiu suddenly grasped the hilt of the sword and said unceremoniously: "If the seniors are really coming for Zhao Shuyun, then they have to step on my corpse." ”
The knife was slightly unsheathed, and the powerful knife qi came out wantonly, wrapping around Ji Jiu's body like a demon.
"Sit down and listen to me. Murakami's left palm waved slightly, and Ji Jiu sat down uncontrollably.
The former stretched out his hand to caress Ji Jiu's face and said, "You look very much like your mother, just as good-looking." ”
When Ji Jiu heard this, he asked excitedly, "You know my mother, what is her name, where is she, and why did she abandon me in the first place?"
Murakami listened to a series of questions and remembered that the first time he met her, he was also at a loss by this series of questions, and sure enough, not only did he look alike, but even his personality and way of speaking were similar.
"She's gone. ”
Ji Jiu's excited face stopped abruptly, as if it froze, although he had guessed that this kind of result would still be a little disappointed and sad to be told by others in person.
"Then my dad is also ......?"
Murakami nodded slightly, and then said, "Your mother is a very great person, she is kind-hearted, and she is willing to repay the greatest kindness to the poor people who are struggling to survive in this world, and her biggest dream is that life can be indulged wantonly, although she is a daughter, her heart is comparable to a man's broad atmosphere." ”
"So, she was killed, who is it!" Ji Jiu asked word by word with a fierce look on his face.
Murakami shook his head and said, "This question shouldn't be answered by me, when you return to Jiangyun, Wei Chang will tell you everything." ”
Looking for Wei Chang was also Ji Jiu's original intention to come to Jiangyun, and it was precisely because of this incident that he was deeply involved in Jiangyun's situation, and now he joined the Tiance Army, and then he reacted, and he was forced to enter the game.
"Can't I say who my father is?"
Murakami nodded as expected, his eyes were dark and bright, and he could see the young man's dejected face through the light of the fire that was about to burn out.
Ji Jiu sat cross-legged with his legs folded slightly, his face bitter.
