Life and death clutch, if the wind and snow drift away, even if they once hugged each other, they will eventually turn into countless snowflakes and disperse separately, turning into water in the palm of their hands, flowing through the fingers, leaving no trace. Gather and disperse, and eventually return to dust, and leave something in this world?

Let's say that since the Dao Xueke and Chu Qing'an got off the Kexue Villa, they will return to Yiye Sword Gate to settle the disciples in the sect, and choose another door master, so that the two of them can retire to the rivers and lakes as soon as possible and fulfill their wishes. But when passing through Yaoye Mansion, I saw officials posting lists, and the people gathered at the gate of the city, looking around. Curious for a moment, Chu Qing'an inevitably took Dao Xueke's hand and got into the crowd.

Standing on tiptoe and looking up, it can be seen that when it was written on the list, he suddenly had no smile, his face turned pale, and he gasped. subconsciously glanced at the Dao Xueke beside him, and couldn't bear to let him worry about this matter anymore, so he deliberately concealed it, and wanted to pull the Dao Xueke out of this place. But Dao Xueke asked, "Qing'an, what is written on the list?"

Chu Qingxin was flustered, and when he heard this, he replied with a wry smile: "Ah, it's nothing, it's just an ordinary official list of chasing Jiangyang thieves, and it has nothing to do with us." Brother Xue, let's hurry back to Yiye Sword Gate. But at this moment, the people who watched the list dispersed in a hurry, shook their heads helplessly and said: "Hey, there is another war, the world is really uneven." ”

"yes. It's only been a few years since it stopped, and it's going to be at war with the Eagle Clan again. "I'm going to be conscripted again, I'm afraid this winter will be the last year I've spent at home." After the beginning of spring, the state capitals will forcibly conscript troops, and tell me to wait to fight the Eagle Clan, and give my life in vain. Everyone talked about it, how hearing Dao Xueke was, and he stopped when he heard this.

Chu Qing'an looked back and asked, "Why didn't Brother Xue leave?" Dao Xueke asked coldly: "What is written on the list?" Chu Qing'an was uneasy, and laughed dryly: "It is indeed an ordinary wanted list to hunt down Jiangyang thieves." Dao Xueke let go of her hand and said with a chuckle: "Qing'an, I once told you, I am blind and not blind, you don't want to hide it from me, tell me the truth." ”

Chu Qingan only thought that he had misunderstood him, and felt aggrieved in his heart, so he stepped forward and choked up: "Tell me, what did I hide from you, when did I hide it from you?" "That list is a list of conscription? Is the imperial court going to war with the Chao Eagle Clan?" Chu Qing'an heard this, his cheeks flushed, and his heart was weak, so he turned his head and said angrily: "What? No, what? You know it, why do you need to ask me?"

"Since it's a conscription list, why do you want to lie to me as a wanted list?" Dao Xueke was puzzled, but Chu Qing'an had tears in his eyes and bit his lower lip: "Yes, I lied to you." But so what? We are not generals and county lords of the imperial court, and we have done our best to kill demons, sweep away traitors, and save all the people from fire and water. Now that his court wants to recruit soldiers, he will recruit soldiers, and he has his own arrangements, what does it have to do with you and me?"

Dao Xueke said: "How can it have nothing to do with it? We entered the palace to kill the thief, just to resolve the war, and now the imperial court is going to recruit troops to start a war with the Chaoying Clan, so what we have done before will not be in vain, and the death of the senior sister is meaningless?" "Then what do you want?" Chu Qingan asked with a frown and red eyes.

"I want to go back to Chengtianfu, and ask the emperor to take back his order and stop the army, so as not to destroy the lives of the people. Dao Xueke said resolutely. But Chu Qing'an sneered, two crystal tears slid down his cheeks, turned around and trembled and said, "What a young man who cares about the country and the people, and cares about the people." But don't you have only the people in your heart, and not me?"

Dao Xueke exclaimed, "What do you mean by that?"

Chu Qing'an's eyes were hazy with tears, but he still said with a forced smile: "Originally, I thought that when I killed the demon Dao and eradicated the fine work, the two of us could hide in the rivers and lakes, and no longer ask about the affairs of this world, just be ordinary people, and die on Mengyao Mountain." I finally escaped from the palace, and I don't have to go back to take up my post, if I go back to Chengtianfu, won't I fall into the net?"

Turned around and took Dao Xueke's hand and clenched it tightly: "Is Brother Xue going to be trapped in that palace for the rest of his life, and end up with a reputation of taking refuge in the imperial court and being willing to be an eagle dog? Could it be that Brother Xue has forgotten the oath of Mengyao Mountain? Isn't Brother Xue unwilling to accompany me to stay with me for a long time and grow old together?"

Dao Xueke was slightly stunned when he heard this, chuckled twice, took Chu into his arms, and said with a smile: "How could I forget." It's just that if the two countries go to war, how can you and I, as the people of Da Jiang, protect ourselves in the troubled times and be alone? Now only by entering the palace and asking the emperor to call off the army can the two of us return to seclusion with peace of mind. But Chu Qing'an pushed him away, and said with a pout: "Since this is the case, you will go to your Chengtian Mansion, and I will return to Yiye Sword Gate!"

With that, he turned around angrily with the Snow Leaf Sword and left, leaving the sword and the Snow Ke standing alone in the wind and snow. But after walking a few steps, tears in his eyes, crystal rolling down, looking back, the knife snowman was still standing in place, extremely helpless, the falling snow had wet the white hair, and fell on the robe, as if he had become a snowman. Chu Qing'an sighed lightly, thinking in his heart: "If I leave him, Brother Xue will be alone, and his eyes will be ...... How is it a good ......"

And Dao Xueke saw that Chu Qing'an hadn't returned for a long time, only when she was determined to return to Yiye Jianmen, knowing that she was sorry for her, and she didn't want to drag Chu Qing'an down anymore, the corners of her mouth twitched, and she sighed, turned around slowly, followed the human voice, explored the way with the red night knife, and groped her way out of the city.

Unconsciously, there was another person beside him, who held him up, and said softly: "Do you want to touch Chengtianfu by yourself like this......" Dao Xueke heard the familiar and warm voice, and also rolled down two lines of tears, shook his head and sighed: "You shouldn't come back, ......" "I don't worry about ......you" The two snuggled and went north, and the blurred figure disappeared into the wind and snow overnight.

Half a month later, the two returned to Chengtianfu, at this time it was a cold winter, flying snow, covered in silver, white peaks and mountains, and the eyes were snow-white. The horse's hooves stepped through the thick snow, leaving only a clear line of horseshoe prints, and the biting cold wind blew through, rolling up a handful of snowflakes and hiding the trail. Out of nowhere, two or three petals of bright red plum blossoms floated in, leaving a touch of red color for this single winter scene.

The two of them were wrapped in heavy winter clothes, leaning on each other's bodies to give the last warmth. The fast horse rushed to the front of Zhengyang Gate, Chu Qing'an and Dao Xueke turned over and dismounted, and said to the Imperial Forest Army in front of the gate: "We have something important to ask to see the saint." "Ridiculous, how can the Holy Lord be seen by the common people? Leave quickly!" The Imperial Forest Army overlapped the golden halberds again, blocking the way for the two of them.

Dao Xueke clenched his fists and said: "We are the loyal and righteous Jingjielang and the county lord of Nanxiang who have been enshrined by His Majesty, and we can walk freely in the forbidden palace. Now if you want to see Your Majesty, why can't you? I hope that the two of you will let me wait in, this trip is indeed urgent!" When the Imperial Forest Army heard this, he snorted coldly and said with a smile: "What kind of shelf, what kind of pretence! What kind of loyalty, righteousness, Jing Jielang and the county lord of Nanxiang, the common people dare to speak wildly, and if you don't get out, you will all be put in prison!"

Seeing that the conversation was fruitless, Chu Qing'an glanced back at Dao Xueke, and pinched his palm, Dao Xueke nodded, Chu Qing'an grabbed the scabbard, hit upwards with his backhand, and used the Xueye Sword to open the overlapping golden halberd, and took the opportunity to rush towards the palace, while the two Imperial Forest soldiers leaned back and almost fell. When he came back to his senses, he quickly chased after him, shouting: "Catch the assassin! Someone broke into the palace and quickly arrested the assassin!"

The palace guards rushed over when they heard the sound, and the leader was the captain of the Ouchi patrol who had lost the sword and Xueke in Luohuai Slope before, and led a team of guards to rush over, and was about to work together to arrest the assassin, but he didn't want to take a look with the two of them, Chu Qing'an recognized this person, and then smiled: "Does the captain still recognize the two of me?"

The man was slightly stunned, looked at it carefully, and finally smiled, and bowed his hand: "It turned out to be General Dangkou and the county lord of Nanxiang, and their subordinates were rude." Seeing the Imperial Forest Army coming panting, he still said intermittently: "Catch the assassin." Then he instructed: "The two of them are not at this moment, but the general and the county lord of His Majesty's edict, and they are allowed to carry blades and move around at will in the forbidden palace, don't care, go back separately." The Imperial Forest Army had no choice but to give up and return to Zhengyang Gate.

And the inspector asked again: "The day before yesterday, you two worked hard to escape in Luohuai Slope, why are you back now?" Chu Qing'an only then informed the captain of the purpose of his trip, who knew that his face changed drastically, and he shook his head slowly: "You shouldn't come back." But Dao Xueke said: "If we don't come back, and the Holy Lord insists on raising an army to the south, all the people will fall into fire and water, and our previous efforts will be meaningless." ”

"But now is different from the past, if it was before, maybe Your Majesty could still listen to the advice, but now...... Hey, it's hard to put into words. Since the death of the king of Dongling, His Majesty seems to have changed as if he was a different person, putting aside the government and indulging in wine every day. The lieutenant sighed with a sad face. Chu Qing'an and Dao Xueke were quite surprised: "Should there be no illness and die?" The patrol captain told the two of them that Ying Wuxian was given death by the Holy Lord, although Dao Xueke was suspicious, he felt that there was still something strange about this matter, and it was difficult to say it clearly.

Chu Qing'an clapped his hands and said happily: "That's fine, you should die without illness, Brother Xue will get revenge, and then persuade Your Majesty to take back your life, Brother Xue will no longer have to worry about it." The two begged again, and the inspector agreed to inform the two of them, but whether it was successful or not, it was a destiny.

In the emperor's bedroom, the bells and drums are dingding, the piano is played day and night, the warbler sings and swallows dances, it is not obscene and extravagant, the skirt flutters, the jade wrist turns lightly, the eyes are like silk, the gauze is slightly transparent, the sheng song is intoxicating, the cup is pushed and the lamp is changed, the sound of dogs and horses, drunk life and dreams of death, extravagance and absurdity, unbearable. That Emperor Zhengguang enjoyed being intoxicated and couldn't extricate himself. And the inspector didn't dare to trespass, so he whispered to the chief Pan who was guarding the door of the dormitory, and the chief Pan stepped forward to report: "Your Majesty, that Dao Xueke and Chu Qing'an are asking to see outside the palace?"

"Who...... I don't see it, I don't see it......" Emperor Zhengguang hugged two revealing maids in his arms, held the wine with his jade fingers, took a sip, and gave another grape, Emperor Zhengguang ate it happily, he was already fluttering, he didn't know anything outside the palace, and replied casually.

The chief manager of Na Pan said again: "Your Majesty forgot, that Dao Xueke and Chu Qing'an killed the demon Dao Qingyi, and the serious injury should be no disease, but he is a meritorious hero, and was crowned by His Majesty as the loyal and righteous Jingjielang and the general of Dangkou and the county lord of Nanxiang, who previously returned the coffin of the senior sister to his hometown, and returned today." It turned out that Chu Qing'an also specially handed the inspector a piece of silver and asked him to take care of it, so that the shrewd manager Pan could speak for the two of them.

"......Aren't they? It's back today!" Emperor Zhengguang staggered

He stood up, pushed the palace maid away, and said in a daze: "I want to cure the two of them......!"

Manager Pan immediately said: "The two of them are not gone and will not return, but it is a harsh winter, and the heavy snow is blocked, so the time to return to the dynasty has been delayed, and Your Majesty must not listen to slander." The two of them are now outside the palace, waiting for the decree, and His Majesty can ask carefully, and if there is anything wrong, it is not too late to deal with it. ”

Emperor Zhengguang burped, patted his chest and said, "Since this is the case, I will announce that hundreds of officials will enter the court and go to the palace to discuss matters." Mr. Pan. Manager Pan bowed down and said, "The old slave is here." "Move to the Tianming Palace!" When Emperor Zhengguang was about to go to court, the civil and military officials who were waiting outside the Tianming Hall sighed, waited for a long time against the wind and snow, and had complained.

"Today, Your Majesty is only afraid that he will not go to court again, and he has been delayed for more than ten days, how should this be good?" "Yes, if I knew this was the case, it would be better to let that Ying take the throne without any problems." Seeing Chief Pan coming, the ministers hurriedly stopped their mouths, for fear that if they fell into his ears and told the saint, they would surely die. And the grandfather of Napan led Dao Xueke and Chu Qing'an to the front of the Tianming Palace, and said to the hundred officials: "Adults, Your Majesty is coming to the court today, and the adults should have prepared early. ”

When all the ministers heard this, they were overjoyed, hurriedly tidied up their clothes, lined up in line, and respectfully bowed their bodies and waited for Emperor Zhengguang to arrive. "Xuan Baiguan goes to the palace-" An edict came out of the Tianming Palace, and the hundred officials unloaded their troops and walked up to the main hall in an orderly manner. And Father-in-law Pan led the two of them to Daoxueke: "Two, please go to the palace." Walking past Mr. Pan, Chu Qingan stuffed another ingot of silver and said, "Thank you, Mr. Pan." Pan Gonggong hurriedly collected the silver taels, pretended to be fine, and returned to Emperor Zhengguang's side.

After the worship was over, all the ministers rose. And what is puzzling is that the Dao Xueke and Chu Qing'an actually stood in the hall, standing straight and not worshipping. "Although the two of you are people in the rivers and lakes, but the whole world is not the king's land, why don't you worship me!" Although Emperor Zhengguang was angry, how could he indulge in the sound of dogs and horses, he was already deficient in qi and blood, his face was sallow, his spirit was sluggish, and his tone was erratic.

Dao Xueke and the two knelt down on one knee together, and shouted in unison: "Long live my emperor, long live, long live!" Emperor Zhengguang deliberately did not let the two of them get even, and then asked: "I am a good person, so I allowed you two to escort the coffin of the heroine back to your hometown for burial, why did you design to escape halfway, don't you want to stay in the court as an official? Or do you think that my reward is too small?"

Chu Qing'an hurriedly said: "Back to Your Majesty, the two of us were really hindered by the wind and snow, so we delayed for a while, and as soon as the wind and snow stopped, we didn't stop, and we really had no intention of escaping." Emperor Zhengguang asked again: "In this case, you two are in a hurry to see me when you return to the court, so what's the matter?" Dao Xueke and Chu Qing'an's hands never separated, Chu Qing'an pinched Dao Xueke's palm again, and he said:

If you insist on the southern expedition and the end of the war, it will surely ruin the lives of the people, harm the people, and increase the sins!

Who knew that Emperor Zhengguang suddenly stood up when he heard this, pointed at Dao Xueke and reprimanded angrily: "You know what happened to the last person who persuaded me to quit the army! And all the civil and military officials have seen the magic power of Dao Xueke, and they don't dare to say much, so they have to be silent, standing in the queue, and meeting with their eyes.

"Bold!" Emperor Zhengguang naturally heard the great disrespect in that tone, "How dare you speak to me like this? Do you know that whether you are a courtier or a Jianghu person, it will be easy for me to kill you! My army has been ready for more than half a month, and the grain, grass and ordnance have been prepared. You are a reckless man, how dare you let me take back my life and let all these years of hard work go to waste!"

Dao Xueke did not face the words of Emperor Zhengguang, but still insisted: "Please Your Majesty take back your order and think about the people!" Once the war starts, countless casualties will be killed, and rivers of blood will flow, and only the soldiers and innocent people who will die will die, but the people who live in the temple still sing songs day and night, greedy for pleasure. This remark was like a sword, stabbing directly at Emperor Zhengguang, and the irony was so deep that the officials were shocked, sweating like rain, and they didn't dare to stop it.

"It's the opposite, it's the opposite!" Emperor Zhengguang trembled with anger, his cheeks flushed, "Could it be that the king of a country is not as good as you as a person from the rivers and lakes? You are worried about the country and the people, and you care about the people, aren't I? You actually spoke wildly above the court, and made a lot of nonsense, if I don't kill you, heaven will not tolerate it!" Chu Qing'an heard that Dao Xueke was so straightforward and confronted the emperor, although he admired it in his heart, but he was also anxious, and he was about to explain, and he didn't want Emperor Zhengguang to order: "Come on, push Dao Xueke and Chu Qing'an out of the palace and behead them!" Hang the head on the hall and let the hundred officials take a look, this is the next stage of the collision!"

But just as the hundred officials sighed and Chu Qing'an was anxious, Dao Xueke got up and pulled out the Red Night Knife on his waist, and all the officials were shocked, so frightened that Emperor Zhengguang fell on the dragon chair: "Dao Xueke, you dare to dance with a knife and a gun in the court, don't you want to kill the monarch and rebel!" Chu Qingan also hurriedly got up and pulled Dao Xueke's shirt and hurriedly said: "Brother Xue, don't do anything stupid!"

The officials were afraid of the power of the sword and snow, and they retreated one after another, and the palace maid behind Emperor Zhengguang had already fled and hid in the corner. But Dao Xueke slowly turned around, faced the goose feather snow outside the Ming Hall that day, and said softly: "He's here." Chu Qing'an was puzzled, and hurriedly asked, "Who is here?"

Everyone was puzzled, only to see the snow whistling outside the hall, the wind and clouds were changing, but it was as dark as midnight, and the chief manager Pan hurriedly ordered the palace maid to light the palace lamp, which was a little light. But the Zhengguang Emperor shrank on the dragon chair and shouted: "Why is this? Why is this?

Suddenly, I heard a few terrible screams, dozens of royal forest soldiers in front of the Tianming Palace fell into the palace together, and died of anger, leaving only blood all over the ground, everyone stepped forward to look, and found that their chests and armor were all penetrated, leaving only fist-sized blood holes, and their hearts were also dug out. The civil officials shouted, and the military attachés were timid, and they fled privately, but they crashed into one place, embarrassed, extremely flustered, and unorthodox.

The hall was filled with screams and blood splashing for a while, and a black shadow rushed in from outside the hall, flickering a few times, and then several ministers fell, and the death was extremely miserable, no different from the Imperial Forest Army.

The winter was thundering, the snow was crying bloody rain, the dark clouds were gathering, the sky and the earth were discolored, except for the knife snowman and Chu Qing'an, the rest of the people were frightened. That Emperor Zhengguang even squatted on the dragon chair and hugged his arms and wailed loudly, completely without the dignity of a country's monarch. The wind swept through the Tianming Palace, the black shadows flickered, and there were a few screams, leaving only a few blood marks on the neck, and then he fell to the ground and died.

But there are still loyal ministers who are frightened, but they still protect the Zhengguang Emperor, and shout loudly: "Don't panic, protect Your Majesty! Escort, escort!" and the black shadow followed the sound, took the old minister's heart with one claw, dug out his heart in front of the Zhengguang Emperor, and threw it aside. Blood spurted from his chest, and the body fell down. Still with that frightened look.

Emperor Zhengguang screamed even more when he saw this scene, his face was covered with blood, he let out a long howl, and fainted on the dragon chair. And the black shadow was about to take his life, but the knife snowman carried the red night knife and rushed towards the black shadow very quickly. Chu Qing'an didn't know what was going on, and when he saw Dao Xueke leaving, he was afraid that he would lose, so he hurriedly pulled out the Snow Leaf Sword and stepped forward to help.

The red light flickered, the sword qi was vertical and horizontal, and although the sword snowman was blind, he could judge the location of the black shadow from the rapid and strange breathing sound. A knife slashed out and slashed at the back of the black shadow, the man screamed and turned backwards into a somersault, hanging in the air, Chu Qing'an stabbed it with a sword, but he dodged away.

Dao Xueke turned around and stood side by side with Chu Qing'an, blocking in front of Emperor Zhengguang. And the black shadow turned several somersaults in a row, falling three zhang away, white hair dancing wildly, red eyes, green fangs, ten fingers like scarlet blades, full of anger, murderous, where it looks like a thing in the world, it is clearly the god of killing in the underworld. But even so, Chu Qing'an could still distinguish his appearance, and exclaimed, "There should be no disease!"

When the officials heard this, they pointed to the black mist and exclaimed, "Should there be no disease......?" Isn't he dead?" everyone just thought that he should be free from illness and resurrect the corpse, and came to ask for revenge, and his blood surged, and he was so frightened that his liver and gall were broken, and Gu all fainted. And the blue-faced fanged ghost in the black mist actually looked up to the sky and laughed, and his hoarse voice was creepy: "Dao Xueke, long time no see!"

"Ying Wu Ji, you are a thief who is not dead, and you have cultivated the Supreme Xuan Shen Shen Shen Scroll, do you know the fate of You Jinwen?" Dao Xueke frowned slightly, sensing the murderous aura emitted by Ying Wu Ji, the Red Night Knife in his hand turned slightly, and the red light was magnificent. And Chu Qingan also echoed: "There should be no disease, and evil cannot prevail over good." You Jinwen died because of that evil skill, I advise you to put down the butcher knife, turn back to the shore, perhaps, you can still leave a way to live!"

"The way to live, you have entered the door of death, how can you come to live?" Ying Wujian laughed twice, his wrist turned, his fingers were like claws, and the killing intent surged, "Dao Xueke, don't you want to seek revenge on me! I will give you this opportunity today, this king will send you to see your father and mother now, and then kill the little emperor, the world will still be mine after all!" "Wishful thinking!" Chu Qing'an cursed, and was about to raise his sword to stab, not wanting to be stopped by Dao Xueke.

When he looked at it again, the knife snowman had already risen into the air, raised the knife with both hands, and slashed towards Ying Wuji. Ying Wujian raised his two palms unhurriedly, sneered, and collided with the blade. The red light flickered, the black clouds churned, and if a meteor fell at the time of the rendezvous, Chu Qingan couldn't see it really, and narrowed his eyes. When they looked at it again, the two of them each took three steps back, and they were evenly matched.

Ying Wuji seemed to be very dissatisfied with this, but he still said: "Dao Xueke! Now that this King's Blood Rakshasa Heart Sutra has been completed, and the Reincarnation Wuji Gong is about to be completed, you are definitely not my opponent!" "I can kill You Jinwen, and I can also kill you, I advise you to turn back quickly, otherwise, the sword has no eyes!"

He dissolved that power in his body, but he never used it. Ying Wujian let out a long roar, a claw slashed, the knife snowman soared into the air, retracted his legs, dodged this move, and turned around and slashed out a knife, the blue clouds overlapped, the wind and water rose, Chu Qing'an saw it, and said with great joy: "With the power of this Jade Buddha, Brother Xue will be able to defeat him!"

The knife qi drifted away, the paw prints were turned over, and under the oblique slash of the knife, Ying Wujian tossed backwards, and swept a leg, the knife snowman flashed over, and his body flew over against Ying Wuji's left shoulder, and the blade in his hand was wiped on the neck, but he didn't want to be like a copper and iron, and the blade was shocked back a few feet. Dao Xueke was shocked, and he should have laughed again and again,

Grabbing the blade with his backhand, the two of them flew up, both spinning for weeks.

Falling down, Ying Wu pulled the red night knife, grabbed the knife body full of knife qi, clenched his right hand into a fist, the black clouds churned, and a long roar hit the knife snowman's chest. After being punched several times in a row, the flesh and blood in his chest were already blurred, Dao Xueke's face was pale, and he was spitting blood, and he was about to pull out the Red Night Knife, but he didn't want to be slashed by another claw, wanting to dig out his heart.

Chu Qing'an secretly said badly: "Brother Xue is blind, if there is a mistake, what can I do." Seeing that although Dao Xueke dodged that claw, his upper clothes were tattered, his chest was blood-red, and there were a few more claw marks on his left arm. Fortunately, the Red Night Knife also injured Na Ying, and the two of them took a few steps back and stalemate.

"Although Brother Xue is blind, his knife skills are sensitive and fast, his murderous aura is undiminished, and his moves are deadly, as usual. It seems that the darkness doesn't have any effect on the Blade Snowman, but he is used to it. But that shouldn't be a disease. Thinking of this, Chu Qing'an dodged very quickly and blew out the palace lamp. For a while, the entire Tianming Hall was like the outside of the hall, as dark as night, and there were no five fingers.

Instead, he only practiced in the coffin, but he never fought with others in the dark. I couldn't see where the knife snowman was, so I panicked. Hurriedly shouted: "Dao Xueke, where are you! Hurry up and fight with me, don't hide! Dao Xueke, get out of here!" Although Dao Xueke was greatly puzzled when he heard this, he suddenly heard Chu Qing'an shouting: "Brother Xue, I have blown out the palace lamp, I should not be able to see you, you should kill him quickly!"

Dao Xueke was overjoyed in his heart, and followed the murderous aura, picked up the knife and ran, the red light appeared, Ying Wu hurriedly turned around, not wanting to be stabbed in the chest, the flesh turned out, spurted blood, and fell to the ground. If he hadn't practiced this Wheel Rotation Wuji Gong, I was afraid that this knife would kill him.

Chu Qing'an saw the sword light flickering on the side, the claw shadows overlapping, and heard the sound of the fist and palm being wrong, but he couldn't distinguish the position of the two of them, for fear of accidentally injuring the knife snowman, although he was anxious, it was not easy to come forward to help.

In the darkness, the scarlet sword qi swept like a violent wind, leaving several scars on Ying Wuji's body, and through the deep internal force, it burst out when the blade came into contact with Ying Wuji, breaking its meridians.

Now that Dao Xueke has deep internal strength and the power of the Jade Buddha, he should be naturally not an opponent. In the blink of an eye, he was scarred. Dao Xueke shouted violently, turned around and slashed again, but he couldn't dodge without a problem, and his left arm was cut off by the red night knife. The terrible screams echoed in the hall, and there was a long howl, blood and tears gushed out, and with a loud cry, the clothes were shattered, the eyes were protruding, and the meridians were retrograde, and they went mad and fell into the evil path completely.

With a claw, the mountains and rivers were shattered, and the world collapsed, and the sword snowman crossed the blade to resist in a hurry, retreating step by step. Every time the two of them made a move, thunder rolled down outside the hall, black clouds churned, lightning and thunder, blood rain mixed with flying snow, and they were blown into the hall one after another, surrounded by the smell of blood, and the killing intent was strong.

After a few more combinations, the sword snowman gradually couldn't parry, and he released the power of the jade Buddha before, forcibly retreating without a disease, and actually damaged his own heart. Before he could be cured with the Ten Directions Returning Heart Gong and the First Dust Sutra, the demon-like corpse pounced on him again, without giving him a chance to breathe. When he was distracted, he was already in front of him, and a heavy murderous aura struck, and Dao Xueke hurriedly took out his knife.

Ying Wujian hurriedly dodged and rolled to avoid the knife qi, and flew up again, hitting it by mistake, and actually kicked the Red Night Knife away, slanting into the ground, and the light dimmed. Dao Xueke lost his weapon and was unable to parry, so he slapped it with a palm and hurriedly slapped his right palm to meet it. The two were connected, and with a bang, the blue and red lights exploded, and the Tianming Hall was already crumbling, and it was about to collapse, as if it was going to repeat the mistake of the sword gate.

The beams and pillars shattered, and the golden dragon disintegrated. Ying Wufu slapped another palm, and slapped the knife snowman in the chest. suffered a heavy blow, and a mouthful of blood spurted out from the sky, and Dao Xueke was sent flying several feet away, falling to the ground, coughing repeatedly. And Chu Qing'an saw that the sword qi was gone, so he guessed that it must be Brother Xue who lost his weapon, and hurriedly pulled out the Snow Leaf Sword and threw it into the air: "Brother Xue, take the sword!"

A white light rose into the sky and fell like a pear blossom. Dao Xueke covered his chest, listened to the sound of the sword unsheathed, pointed at the acupoint, suppressed the internal injury, and jumped up again, catching the silver-white snow leaf sword, the white light flashed, if the rainbow was flying thousands of miles, a sword stabbed towards Ying Wuji. Ying Wujian raised his palm to block, he didn't want to be pierced by the snow leaf sword in his palm, turned the sword body, cut the meridians, and Ying Wujian screamed miserably, spitting blood.

Dao Xueke took the opportunity to use the cold and icy true qi again, froze his blood, and said in Ying Wuji's ear: "Back then, you destroyed my Kexue Mountain Villa, today I will let you die under the thirteen swords of the wind and snow!" After that, he pulled out the Snow Leaf Sword, went around behind him, swung two swords in a row, and flew up again, stabbing out two swords above his head, stabbing, chopping, chopping, swinging, and colliding, thirteen cold sword qi swept out, and mixed with the jade Buddha's turquoise internal force, wrapped around the sword body.

The blend of blue, white and blue interrupted the meridians around Ying Wuji's body, and his martial arts were abolished, leaving only the terrible sound that resounded through the palace, and Ying Wujian knelt on the ground, shaking like a sifting chaff: "Dao Xueke - I won't let you go even if I am a ghost." "It's a pity, you don't have that chance!" Dao Xueke's murderous intent has risen, and what he is concerned about in his heart is no longer just Kexue Mountain Villa and Ten Ghost Hall, at this time, he has the people of the world in mind, and he wants to eliminate harm for the country.

The sword light is all over the sky, if the snow is drifting, the pear blossoms are falling, the snow leaf sword is like a silver snake running in the hands of the sword snowman, and it does not lose the subtlety of its knife technique, the sword is fused together, tied to one, and the white light emerges, illuminating the face that should be embarrassed and hideous. "I haven't lost yet, I haven't lost yet!" Ying Wujian actually got up and ran wildly, and Dao Xueke raised his sword and followed the breath.

Who knew that Ying Wujian was ruthless, and with the help of that sword light, he took a fancy to Chu Qing'an, who was panicked, and tried his last bit of strength to point his acupoint, and laughed again: "Dao Xueke, I want you to feel guilty for what you have done for the rest of your life!"

Dao Xueke only felt a little strange, and his heart was extremely uneasy, and he hurriedly asked: "Qing'an, where are you? Qing'an, where are you?" Ying Wujian laughed twice and died, his arms hung down weakly, and the white head finally drooped. With the snow leaf sword in his belly, he quietly knelt down. Chu Qing'an, who was behind him, had his abdomen stained red with blood, his eyes were dull, and his face was full of astonishment.

"Brother Xue......" Chu Qing'an called out to Dao Xueke, and also planted forward, Dao Xueke hurriedly caught her when he heard the sound and held her in his arms. The two hugged each other tightly and snuggled together. Dao Xueke stroked the slippery and cold cheeks, and kissed Chu Qing'an's red lips that were as red as blood. Chu Qing'an's hand finally fell weakly, the blood under his body soaked the green shirt, and on the cheeks of Dao Xueke, from the eyes covered by the black cloth, two lines of bloody tears were left on Chu Qing'an's face, which seemed to be asleep.

A deathly silence shrouded the inside and outside of the Forbidden Palace, the dark clouds receded, and the wind and snow disappeared.

Outside Yaoye Mansion, in front of Baili Qiongyun Mountain, there was still a barren and cold, boundless snowfield laughing at the insignificance of all living beings. The all-pervasive cold wind made the craggy strange rocks bow their heads, made the upright dead branches bend their waists, made the heavens and the earth one color, and made the universe turn upside down day and night. The vast snowfield is really a wonder of the world, but it is a pity that this beautiful snow scene is a rakshasa demon who wants people's lives.

In the distance, the peaks of Qiongyun Mountain, which stretches for hundreds of miles, are stacked on top of each other, and the snow tops are like clusters, and if the silver snake lurks, it is also like a sleeping dragon. Holding up the turbidity of the sky and the earth, echoing with the cold and pure white, and the falling snow, blurring the vision, unable to see the road ahead, unable to distinguish the direction.

The red leaves that floated from nowhere were the only little bit of color in the snow-white eyes, and they fell with the wind like drops of blood. A small figure walked not far away, looking particularly lonely under the dim sky. The thin clothes were soaked by the snow little by little, and dried by the biting cold wind, and the cycle continued, but the man didn't care, and his footsteps left traces on the thick snow, like a puppet, and he didn't know where to go.

The snow-white sword in his hand was now bloodstained and had not been wiped. Dao Xueke was hunched up, carrying six books in his arms, all of which were his last reliance and concern in this world. The lifelong learning, wind and snow thirteen knives, blood will lose the heart knife, the first dust scripture, the ten directions to return to the heart and other martial arts compiled into a book, recorded in the pen and paper, but also passed on to future generations, not to be lost in his hands, and created the Jade Buddha Heart Sutra and the frost and snow flying sword a total of five volumes, are rare martial arts in the world.

Dao Xueke traveled to the depths of the snow field, only under an old dead tree broken by the cold wind, and inserted the snow leaf sword obliquely in the snow, where a coffin had already been prepared, and the six books were buried in it, and covered with thick snow, carved wood into a stele, and only wrote: "The wind and snow are not safe" four words, the right to be their own grave.

The sword snowman walked alone to the depths of the snowfield, and his thin figure was covered by the wind and snow. No one on the rivers and lakes has ever seen him again, and no one knows his whereabouts. A few years later, there are still legends about Dao Xueke and Chu Qing'an and others on the rivers and lakes, but the world only thinks that they have taken refuge in the imperial court and become eagle dog minions, but they don't know that Dao Xueke and others killed the demons, got rid of the traitors, and saved the people from fire and water.

After that, the rivers and lakes were quiet for decades, and there were always people who liked to use the story of Dao Xueke as a joke after cooking, and ridiculed him for being a court eagle dog, betraying the morality of the rivers and lakes, and calling the word hero in vain. But even if he was infamy, he still couldn't rest. Everyone in the world thought that Dao Xueke was dead, but they also heard rumors that he compiled what he had learned all his life into a book and passed it on to future generations.

Although it is not known whether it is true or not, and no one has ever found it, this absurd rumor has been circulating for decades. Many people in the rivers and lakes covet the peerless martial arts and want to dominate the rivers and lakes, perhaps, it is precisely because of this that the martial arts left by the sword snowman will really cause a bloody storm again. The world never talked about the Jade Buddha again, but only focused on finding the secret. Many people have also lost their lives as a result.

Drifting all life is like snow, which comes from the sky, but melts into the world. It is clear that this world is three points colder than the Nine Heavens Qiong Palace, why did the snowflakes insist on falling into the mortal world?

Or he has also been freshly dressed and angry, turning a life of glitz and glamour, turning into a red leaf in the snowstorm, going away with the lonely moon, no trace can be found, but there is no rest. paid all the flesh and bones to the world, and in the end it was only a coffin and half a tombstone.

Swords and rivers and lakes, when can it stop?

As the saying goes, the flying snow buries the red leaves, the autumn wind changes the world, how many things are in the rivers and lakes, and it has been a hundred years in the blink of an eye.
