9. Hundred Birds and Ten Miles to Build the Magpie Bridge (3)

Three days later, it began to rain again in Miaojiang. Although the rain this time was not heavy, the rain in late autumn was cold, and falling on the body was enough to make people shiver.

Yan Lin and Jiao Shuyu have hardly spoken much in the past few days, but the relationship between the two has undergone some subtle changes.

Although Yan Lin had a grudge against the people of Baili Jiuzhai, he found that he didn't seem to hate Jiao Shuyu. Although Jiao Shuyu has always been unforgiving, he is really taking care of himself. He thought to himself that he naturally couldn't be the "conscienceless" in Jiao Shuyu's mouth, so he was really embarrassed to put hatred on his face again.

When it rained, they both sat cross-legged under the ancient pine tree to shelter from the rain, and one looked to the side. The rustle of rain and the knocking of leaves. The silence made the rain louder. Gradually, the rain seemed to be heavier, seeping through the pine leaves, condensing into droplets the size of beans and dripping on the two of them. Immediately after that, Honka's shield was useless, and Yan Lin held his hands on his head.

On one side, he found that Jiao Shuyu on the side had found a place where the mountain was recessed and curled up in it. It wasn't a big place, but it could hold two or three people. Jiao Shuyu and Yan Lin's eyes met and asked, "Aren't you coming?"

Yan Lin blinked, he had been deliberately keeping a distance from Jiao Shuyu in the past few days: "I'm fine here." Seeing Yan Lin like this, Jiao Shuyu directly stretched his legs, leaving no place for him at all.

At this time, the rain was getting heavier and heavier, and Yan Lin had an ominous premonition, because his dantian began to burn again. Since then, the attacks of the "harmless" poison have become more and more frequent, from two or three times a day to almost four or five times a day. Every time he was tortured to death, it is no wonder that Han Yao said that most of the people who fell for this poison committed suicide within the forty-ninth day.

Sure enough, the dantian began to suffer sharply. As always, the pain quickly spread all over the body. "No injury" brings pain to the nerves all over the body, and it is even more unbearable under the stimulation of the cold autumn rain. Yan Lin fell to the ground and couldn't help but moan.

The moment Yan Lin fell, Jiao Shuyu got up and dragged him to the rain. At this time, Yan Lin couldn't care about anything else at all, and let Jiao Shuyu fiddle.

When the pain eased a little, Yan Lin suddenly found himself leaning on Jiao Shuyu's shoulder. He hurriedly retreated, but he overestimated his physical condition at this time and fell in the other direction. Jiao Shuyu couldn't help but scold him: "Can't you stop a little?" and then helped him up.

At this time, the rain was still falling, but it turned into a drizzle, lingering with the slanting wind.

Yan Lin grinned in pain, but still squeezed out a sentence: "I didn't mean to lean on the girl." Jiao Shuyu shook his head helplessly: "You go inside, forget that you are injured?"

Yan Lin nodded obediently and leaned closer to Jiao Shuyu's side. At this time, the two of them are separated by a palm, and they can feel each other's temperature. Yan Lin had already had thousands of thoughts flashing in his heart, but they were all strangled in the cradle by himself. He said to his internal organs: "Stop turning over the river and the sea! Think more about Master and Senior Sister!"

Just when Yan Lin was struggling with himself, Jiao Shuyu suddenly said: "I was thinking about one thing when you had a seizure just now, I have to ask clearly." ”

Yan Lin was so frightened that his shoulders trembled, and he paused before saying, "Girl, please speak." ”

"Don't you really know about Baili Jiuzhai sending troops to the Central Plains?"

"I really don't know. ”

"Your master, they don't know either?"

"The senior sister who delivered the letter said that the master was raided. ”

"Then do you know why Wanyin Temple suffered?"

Jiao Shuyu asked repeatedly, Yan Lin sat up straight, and he began to be a little suspicious: "Should I know?"

Jiao Shuyu sighed and held his head to think. This is not the first time Jiao Shuyu has asked him this, Jiao Shuyu also asked this when he was tied to the cross by Han Yao. He asked again: "Does Miss Jiao mean that someone should warn us?"

Jiao Shuyu frowned and didn't answer, Yan Lin suddenly remembered a conversation he overheard outside the window on the second floor of the Thousand Bird Pavilion, as if he realized something: "I sneaked into the Thousand Bird Pavilion before, and I heard a woman discussing with a man whether to send out the information. I didn't know what it meant then, but today the girl said so...... Could it be that the woman is the girl, why did the girl pass on the information? Could it be ......?"

Yan Lin sat up straight, and at this time he was almost sure in his heart that Jiao Shuyu's voice was exactly the same as the female voice at that time!

However, at this time, the compassion on Jiao Shuyu's hand began to glow blue. She threatened: "I advise you to talk less, it annoys me to ask, I don't even know what I want to do with you." ”

"So the girl will save me and take care of me, right?"

Jiao Shuyu frowned and did not answer.

Yan Lin seemed a little excited: "Is the girl an agent planted in Baili Jiuzhai?"

With a "snap", the Divine Whip of Compassion twitched on the ground, the rain was everywhere, and Yan Lin stopped talking. Jiao Shuyu squinted at him, as if if he asked one more question, the whip would be whipped on him in the next second.

Yan Lin finally showed a long-lost smile on his face, he raised his hands and said, "Okay, I won't ask, I won't ask." Jiao Shuyu put away the whip at this time.

It happened that the pain in his body had eased a lot, Yan Lin leaned on the mountain a little weakly, and asked tentatively, "I don't have to ask where you come from." But since that's all that has been said, the girl has to tell me why Baili Jiuzhai wants to kill us completely. ”

Jiao Shuyu actually knew that her identity couldn't be hidden, but after all, she and Yan Lin had known each other for too short a time, and she couldn't reveal her identity in person. She thought that since Yan Lin was from Wanyin Temple, then he really should know what was going on. So he said, "Because the alliance leader wants your Neidan." ”

"Your alliance leader wants to improve his skills?"

Jiao Shuyu glanced at Yan Lin and chuckled: "Now in this world, there are three people whose mana is unique in the world. Dai'an Feng Yu Jun saw, Master Yihua of Jinshan Temple, and our alliance leader Han Casting Sword. Although these three people have not really fought the Fa, their cultivation should be among the best, so that others are beyond their reach. And only by taking the inner pill of a person who is higher than his original cultivation can he achieve the effect of improving his own cultivation. Is there anyone in your Wanyin Temple who has a higher cultivation than our alliance leader?"

"Since you are not pursuing cultivation, why do you want the Inner Dan of the people of Wanyin Temple?"

"Because you have to forge a sword. ”

"Forge a sword with Neidan?"

"That's right. ”

Yan Lin looked at Jiao Shuyu with a puzzled expression, Jiao Shuyu understood his expression and explained: "You know that Neidan can be used to forge swords, right?"

Yan Lin said: "In ancient times, there was a precedent of using people to sacrifice and cast swords, but people at that time didn't know the principle, and only knew that the higher the cultivation of the people, the more powerful the sword was." Later, with the development of swordsmithing, people gradually realized that the real usefulness was actually the human inner dan. ”

Jiao Shuyu said: "That's right. ”

"But the ancestor once said that there are very few people who use Neidan to forge swords now, because the swords forged by Neidan are too fierce, and their anger tends to turn against the wielder. Han Casting Sword uses the Inner Dan of so many people in our Wanyin Temple to forge the sword, isn't he afraid that he won't be able to control it?"

"That's why the alliance leader only needs you Wanyin Temple people Neidan. ”

"Is there anything special about the Inner Dan of our Wanyin Temple?"

Jiao Shuyu said: "This is related to the mental method you use to cultivate the Inner Dan. ”
