Chapter 13: The Girl in Red

Old man Mo said: "Why don't we want to rescue him." My son once said that the Remnant Sun Sword is the lifeblood of the entire rivers and lakes, and it must not fall into the hands of traitors. No matter what happens, we must protect the Remnant Sun Sword until the next destined person appears. You must know that each Remnant Sun Sword Master represents inheritance and protection, and their responsibility is to pass on the Remnant Sun Sword to the next generation intact, and their mission is to protect the Remnant Sun Sword from being stained with pure blood. For the sake of this rivers and lakes, in order to protect the Remnant Sun Sword, we have to do this, as long as we know that my son is still alive in this world. He's a stubborn kid, he's smart, he's going to be with those people, and we've always believed that he won't say a word to them. ”

"You thought your son wouldn't be killed by them, but he died. You are full of remorse, and you are determined to take revenge. It just so happened that Nan Wushi hit the door again at this time, and you didn't pay much attention to her at first, until she fought with the group of people in black and showed Lan Aya, and you didn't recognize her. So, a few of us have become your instruments of revenge!"

Meng Chuanqing finished what the old man wanted to say in one breath, but the old man's heart was inexplicably shocked, this young man seemed to be able to see through people's hearts! He nodded and said, "That's right, a month ago, we did get the news that my son had died in the Confusion Hall. Half a month ago, we went to Miaojiang and got the incurable poison 'dead silence'. 'Dead silence' is destruction, and whoever takes it will be reduced to thick water after twelve hours, and then it will spread like a plague, leaving no grass everywhere it goes. We wanted to use this poison to help us with our revenge, but we lacked a person to test it. It just so happened that you had come here to stay overnight, and we recognized the enemy, so we put the 'dead silence' in the wine jar. I wanted to wait for you to be poisoned, and then throw your corpses to the Confusion Hall within twelve hours, and then the entire Confusion Hall would be reduced to nothing!"

"Have you ever thought that the Remnant Sun Sword has been sealed in the dust for so long, and today it is suddenly opened, maybe the destined person of the Remnant Sun Sword has appeared?" Meng Chuanqing propped his chin and asked the doubts in his heart.

"This ......," the two elders looked at him in unison.

Meng Chuanqing saw that the two elders were looking at him and understood what they were thinking, so he waved his hand and said, "Don't look at me! I never use a sword, and Shang Ci doesn't know martial arts, maybe she can't say it." He pointed to Nan Wushi.

Nan Wushi saw Meng Chuanqing pointing the finger at him, and glared at him: "I don't use a sword either!"

The old woman suddenly exclaimed, "Even if you use a sword, it can't be you." The previous masters of the Remnant Sun Sword are all righteous people, how can an ungrateful person like you deserve to take the Remnant Sun Sword!"

The old woman spoke sharply, obviously hating Nan Wushi. And Nan Wushi didn't even defend herself, Meng Chuanqing only felt that she had a great hidden intention, and was very sympathetic, so she actually spoke for her: "Some things are unavoidable, your son's matter may be fate, and she can't be blamed for it!

Before Meng Chuan's words were finished, the old woman suddenly glared at him and said sharply: "You don't have to defend her!" Then she looked at Nan Wushi and said, "Anyway, we are powerless to resist now, you might as well kill us." If we can't avenge the heavens, we have no shame to live in this world!"

Meng Chuanqing touched a nail, and his heart was very uncomfortable, he looked at the two elders, and then at Nan Wushi, suddenly stood up, and said: "That's it, in the end, this is just a grudge between you, it doesn't seem to have anything to do with me, I won't join in this fun!" He said this, but in his heart he only felt that he was wronged! If it weren't for the antidote to defend himself, he wouldn't know why he was poisoned for no reason. This pond of fish is really home!

The old man looked at Meng Chuanqing with a guilty face, and said, "Little brother, you and Miss Yan are innocent, and it is our revenge that has affected you!"

Meng Chuanqing said: "In this case, there is no need for us to stay here anymore. Nan Wushi, leave it to you to clean up by yourself!I won't accompany you!" After speaking, he pulled up Yan Shangci beside him and said, "Let's go, Shang Ci, let's go find the Remnant Yang Sword!" The two ran out of the courtyard together.

Meng Chuanqing was convinced that the Remnant Yang Sword was thrown to the back mountain of the farmhouse by himself, so as soon as he and Yan Shangci left the farmhouse, they went all the way to the back mountain. Halfway through, Meng Chuanqing suddenly stopped, slapped his head, and shouted, "Oh! Look at my memory, how did I forget this!"

Yan Shangci watched his every move and only felt amused. Sometimes, he behaves like a child, but sometimes he seems so mature and steady. She stepped forward and asked softly, "What?"

Meng Chuanqing said: "I forgot to ask Old Man Mo for that confused map." If I had the chance in the future, I would like to explore this mysterious organization. ”

Yan Shangci heard that he was actually for this, poked Meng Chuanqing's head with his finger, and said with a smile: "When did your head become stupid, just go back and get it." ”

Meng Chuanqing took Yan Shangci's hand and said, "Don't poke, the more you poke, the more stupid you become." ”

Yan Shangci laughed even more after hearing this: "Poke will become stupid all of a sudden, then poke for the rest of your life is not to become an idiot." It turns out that you are taboo about this, I will poke you and stupidize you. As she spoke, she poked Meng Chuanqing's head with both hands. Meng Chuanqing refused to follow her wishes, skillfully dodged, and saw that Yan Shangci was still smiling so happily even though he did not succeed, and his heart suddenly felt relieved.

"Shang Ci, you are really my nemesis, the heart that overcomes my heart. I've never been happier than I am now, and I've never had anyone who can really make me happy. Thank you!"

Meng Chuanqing suddenly said these words, which made Yan Shangci stunned on the spot. She had a sour nose and asked, "Chuanqing, weren't you happy when you were a child?" Meng Chuanqing didn't speak.

Yan Shangci suddenly hugged him tightly, put his lips to his ear, and said softly: "I will guard you for the rest of your life and make you happy every day!" Meng Chuanqing was moved, and Yan Shangci's next words made Meng Chuanqing feel even more sudden. "So, Meng Chuanqing, I decided. I want to marry you!" she let go of Meng Chuanqing, faced him, and said word by word: "Do you want me?"

"You're going to... Marry me?" Meng Chuanqing had never come into contact with such a bold and active woman, and when he saw Yan Shangci like this, he stammered for a while. At this time, he felt like a woman, and Yan Shangci was a bit like a man. He looked at the person in front of him and thought for a moment. It was the first time he had seen Yan Shangci's self-promotion method, which caught him off guard.

Yan Shangci was speechless, and he didn't know how much shock his words had brought to Meng Chuanqing. This woman who dares to love and hate is not as disciplined as ordinary ladies, nor does she have the kind of chanting they deserve. Perhaps because of the absence of a mother, many boys' thoughts were incorporated into her mind. Bold, open, unpretentious, daring to pursue, and sometimes seemingly so simple and ignorant. With such a different woman, it is no wonder that she will deeply attract Meng Chuanqing's heart.

Yan Shangci was a little disappointed when he saw that Meng Chuanqing didn't answer for a long time, and forced a smile: "I'm kidding!"

Meng Chuanqing suddenly hugged her and shouted happily: "Yes, of course!"

Yan Shangci smiled and asked, "Really?"

Meng Chuanqing raised his hand and said, "It's true, I swear to heaven that I will never fail you in this life!" He put down his hand and changed his tone again: "It's just that I can't marry you until a year later." ”

Yan Shangci said: "Why?"

Meng Chuanqing said with a smile: "Because I can't decide my marriage yet, in a year, maybe my wings will be stiff, and I can do what I like as I want." Besides, I haven't had enough of it, and I don't want to find a tigress to take care of me so soon. ”

Yan Shangci smiled: "Then why only wait for a year, instead of two or three years, so that you can play a little longer!"

Meng Chuanqing said: "Because I'm afraid that if it takes too long, you will be abducted by others!"

Yan Shangci said: "No, no matter how long I will wait for you, in this life and this life, I only recognize you alone!" This is their promise to each other, and the fate of their lives is reversed in such a promise, and it has never stopped.

"I have a hard time!" After Meng Chuanqing and Yan Shangci left, Nan Wushi only said this sentence to the two elders.

The old woman snorted coldly and said, "You don't have to explain anymore, anyway, my son is dead, and it's useless to say anything!"

Nan Wushi said: "Back then, I betrayed the Heavenly Demon Sect, there was really a last resort, and this is also a secret of my Heavenly Demon Sect. At the beginning, that person recognized me and kept asking about the Heavenly Demon Sect, and I took them to your house because I was afraid that they would know the secret. I didn't know the man's intentions at the time, otherwise I wouldn't have done that. Nan Wushi was in a hurry to defend at this time, and her attitude was obviously different from when Meng Chuanqing was present just now, obviously deliberately avoiding Meng Chuanqing.

The old man said, "No matter what, the matter is over. In this situation, it is powerless to want revenge. I only hope that Xiao Meng can find the Remnant Yang Sword, if it falls into the hands of traitors, I am afraid that Huangquan will not be able to see my son! This is also our last wish. Nan Wushi, let's do it! Kill us, so that we can be freed as soon as possible. ”

Nan Wushi said lightly: "I won't kill you." After saying that, he left the farmhouse without looking back, leaving the two elders sad in the courtyard.

Meng Chuanqing squatted in the grass, his hands constantly waving away the grass beside him that was much taller than himself. He was bent on finding the Remnant Sun Sword, but he had never seen its trace, and he couldn't help but wonder in his heart, muttering in his mouth: "It's obviously in this direction! How could you not find it!" At this time, their position was only a few steps away from the place where the woman in red picked up the sword.

"Chuanqing, aren't we going back to get the map?" Yan Shangci asked after Meng Chuanqing got into the grass.

Meng Chuanqing smiled when he heard this: "I won't go back." Nan Wushi is also an extremely smart person, and she may not be unexpected. When she comes, we'll just look for her again!"

Yan Shangci also stepped into the grass, lay down beside him, and asked, "Do you think my mother will kill the two elders?"

Meng Chuanqing turned his head to look at her and said, "Do you really recognize her as a mother?"

Yan Shangci said sadly: "I don't have any memories of my own mother in my mind, and I don't remember anything before I was eight years old. After I was eight years old, my stepmother only gave me a few months of care and love. During the time you were in a coma, Nan Wushi treated me really well, I hope she is my mother!"

Meng Chuanqing thought for a while and said, "I think she has a daughter by herself! She is in trouble, and she will never be kind to others easily, so as not to bring worries to herself." I once heard people talk about Nan Wushi, saying that someone saw her go to Jiangnan with a baby before she apostatized. I think it's her daughter! I guess she saw that you remembered her daughter, so she wanted to play a bit of maternal love!"

Yan Shangci said: "No matter what, I will recognize her as my mother." It's just that I hope she doesn't kill anymore, in my dreams, my mother is a gentle and kind woman. ”

Meng Chuanqing said: "Although Nan Wushi was born in the Demon Sect, he is by no means the kind of person who kills innocents indiscriminately. She won't kill the two elders, don't worry!" Yan Shangci smiled knowingly.

At this time, a green snake was rushing towards Yan Shangci. Meng Chuanqing happened to see it when he turned his head, he was startled, and shouted, "Shang Ci!" Then the whole person rolled over Yan Shangci, grabbed the snake, shook it hard, and threw it away. Judging from Meng Chuanqing's internal strength, it is estimated that the snake will not survive.

Yan Shangci sat up and hugged Meng Chuanqing's shoulder. She was pale, and she was clearly frightened.

And Meng Chuanqing seems to be still shocked. At that moment, what he was afraid of was, if he hadn't turned his head, would Yan Shangci have escaped this catastrophe? Shang Ci, I'm afraid that anything in this world will hurt you! Before I knew it, I was already afraid of losing you.

Nan Wushi left from the path on the right side of the farmhouse, which was also the one taken by Meng Chuanqing and Yan Shangci. Soon after, the figure of the girl in red appeared on the path to the left of the farmhouse. She stepped into the farmhouse with her sword, scanned the courtyard with her sharp eyes, and finally fixed her gaze on the corner of the courtyard wall: there was a pair of bloody chopsticks inserted there, which was Meng Chuanqing's masterpiece.

She looked at the two elders who were still sitting on the ground, and asked in a cold voice, "Someone has just been here, who is it?"

With such a deep internal strength, the girl naturally didn't think it was from the old man's hand, and the broken roof and the bloodstains on the ground proved that there had just been a bloody battle here. The old man was obviously injured, so the chopsticks must have been inserted by someone else. Although I don't know what happened here, the girl can guess a thing or two. It was no accident that the Remnant Sun Sword fell from the sky, it must have been caused by someone fighting here. She wondered who else had come here before she got the news, and why she had abandoned the Remnant Sun Sword in the back mountain. She was puzzled, so she had to ask the old man.

The old man has been sitting on the ground silent since Nan Wushi left, and he has not healed himself. The old woman beside him had fainted, and he ignored it, as if he was still immersed in those sad pasts, and he didn't even notice that the girl had entered the hospital. It wasn't until he heard her voice that the old man suddenly raised his head, looked at the girl with a wary gaze, and asked, "Who are you?"

His heart was extremely shocked: if in the past, ordinary people had come here, he could hear movement ten miles away. And today, although he was injured by Meng Chuanqing, his internal strength still exists, and he doesn't even know when the girl stepped into the yard. He understood that it was not because he was immersed in the past that he let his guard down, but because the girl's light skills had reached the top, and her body was light and silent.

The old man carefully looked at the red-clothed girl in front of him, his heart full of doubts. This girl, who is only eighteen or nineteen years old, has a melon seed face. Small eyes, small nose, and always with a slight smile on his face. Her long jet-black hair was intertwined with red ribbons, which she pulled up with a hairpin. The rest of the hair was draped down to the back, and two ribbons floated on the chest. She holds a long sword in her left hand and a string of wind chimes and a piccolo tied around her waist. The whole person looks so beautiful.

The old man wondered, how could such a girl with such an elegant posture, a good temperament, and such a high martial arts skill come to this small remote farmhouse?
