"Ash, are you awake?" Liu Xunyin walked over quickly: "How do you feel now?"

"It's okay, it's just hot and cold, and there seems to be a cold and warm current in the body. Wen Ember held back his physical discomfort, sat up and looked around, saw an unfamiliar scene as far as he could see, and asked, "Has everyone come in?"

"Don't worry, the pursuers didn't keep up, and everyone was safe. Bai Wangshu pressed him down: "Young Master Wen, you are injured, lie down and don't move, if the cold poison flows around the meridians, the injury will be even more serious." ”

"Cold Poison Palm?" Wen Ember flipped open his sleeves, and sure enough, he saw the blue-purple poisonous gas spreading up his arm and stopping abruptly to his chest.

The man who fought last night was wearing a black hat, and he couldn't see his face clearly, but he was extremely fast and had a strong palm, and he thought he was one of the best masters in the Valley of Forgetting Worries.

But Tang Yu's valley lord and the Kunlun faction have always been at odds, how did his subordinates appear here, and help Situ Shun chase down the Bai family's uncle and nephew?

Wen Ember thought about it for a long time and still didn't come up with a result, but he only felt his head swell and pain, and he was groggy.

Liu Xunyin saw that his lips were dry and chapped, and his eyes were full of red bloodshots, so he reached out and probed his forehead, and said with a solemn expression: "Ah Yan, you have a fever." ”

"I'm fine. Ember said.

Liu Xunyin unwrapped the package and soaked the handkerchief with wine and applied it to his forehead: "It's safe here for the time being, you have a good rest, don't think too much." ”

The dawn first appeared, and everyone looked at the whole of Death Valley with the faint light. Surrounded by lofty mountains, the mountains are covered with snow all year round, and the dazzling light is reflected in the sun, and the fog surrounds the mountainside.

In contrast, the valley of death in which they are located is extremely secluded and silent. Although the valley is deep in rich pasture and butterflies are flying, there are animal carcasses and human skulls everywhere, which are shocking on the purple-red soil, revealing a mysterious and eerie smell of death. There are many natural caves on the surrounding rock walls, which are excellent shelters.

The thunder was loud, and the hurricane swept the sand and dust obliquely, Bai Wangshu blocked his eyes with his arms and shouted: "Look at this will be a thunderstorm, we must quickly find a place to hide." ”

Xiao Mu squatted down and touched the ground, twisted the soil with his fingertips, and pondered: "This land is slippery, there may be a swamp nearby, everyone take care of each other, don't step on it." ”

"Good. Tang Qiqi picked up a wrist-thick branch: "I'm exploring the way ahead, you follow behind, don't fall behind." ”

Xiao Mu picked up the embers on his back: "Go!"

The crowd braved the headwinds and struggled to find a suitable place to hide. After a while, I saw an extremely deep cave in front of the right, which seemed to be able to accommodate a dozen people.

"That's it, I'll go in and find out, you wait here first. Tang Qiqi pulled out the sword at Xiao Mu's waist and walked in the lead.

The deeper she walked, the darker the light became, and she twitched her nose and sniffed, only to feel that the stench of the animal became more and more intense. It's a wolf! Tang Qiqi became alert, and saw a faint green light coming from the deepest part of the cave.

Listen to the sounds, there are no less than six. Seeing the light from the wolf's eyes swimming around, Tang Qiqi simply closed his eyes and listened to the sound. The wolf's claw pounced at great speed, and she flashed sideways, her sword fell, and the bloody qi spread. The rest of the wolves seemed to be stimulated, and rushed over, Tang Qiqi stepped on the stone wall and jumped, and the sword body rotated with the sound of the wind. The wolf's head hit the ground.

"Qiqi, what's going on!" Liu Xunyin shouted loudly when he heard movement at the door.

Tang Qiqi walked around and stepped on it, and after confirming that it was safe, he beckoned a few people to come in. Bai Wangshu put his uncle down carefully, took out the fire fold and polished it to look around, and saw that the wolf's body was scattered all over the ground, the wounds were extremely smooth, and he thought that the swordsmanship was extremely fast. He couldn't help but exclaim: "Miss Tang is really a heroine among women. ”

"What's this, I've been dealing with wolves in the wild since I was a child, and I'm used to it. Tang Qiqi moved them out: "This place is big enough, it can indeed tolerate this smell, and you can live in it after cleaning it up." ”

"It's all reduced to this, why is it so exquisite. Xiao Mu smiled. He gently lowered the ember on his back and leaned against the stone wall: "How are you, can you still hold it?"

"Hold on, thank you. Wen Ember pressed his heart, the cold in his body deepened a little, and his arm seemed to be frozen in an ice cave. He tried to move his fingers gently, but he couldn't move.

Liu Xunyin noticed that he looked strange, and walked over and pressed his wrist, his eyebrows were worried.

"How's it going?" Tang Qiqi asked nervously.

"It's aggravated. Liu Xunyin shook his head and looked at Bai Wangshu: "Bai Gongzi, now that Ember has woken up, can you act according to the plan?"

"Hmm. Bai Wangshu nodded solemnly: "It's just that I want to trouble you to avoid it, after all, the fire bathing trick is ......"

"Don't worry, we'll go to the cave gate and keep watch. After Liu Xunyin sought the opinions of Tang Qiqi and Xiao Mu, he stretched out his hand to seal the ears of the three of them.

"I can't hear it then, thank you Bai Gongzi. Liu Xunyin bowed deeply to him. Seeing Bai Wangshu replying in the affirmative with his lips, he beckoned Xiao Mu and Tang Qiqi to go out.

"What does this mean?" asked Ember in a hoarse voice, his injuries clearly getting worse.

"Young Master Wen, it's still unclear who injured you, but the cold poison palm is extremely violent, asking for people's lives, and it must be treated as soon as possible. Bai Xu replied on the side: "The only way we can think of is for you to practice the fire bathing technique." ”

"No, you can't. Wen Yan shook his head with difficulty, and said angrily: "Thank you two, but I am not a disciple of the Kunlun Sect......"

"Young Master Wen, it's important to save your life. Bai Wangshu smiled at him and lifted the placket of his chest: "Do you know why this cold poison spread to his chest and stopped?"

Ember pondered for a long time and shook his head suspiciously.

"I've been practicing the fire bathing technique for nearly ten years, and I passed on all my skills to you yesterday. If you would rather die than obey, all my hard work will be burned. ”

Wen Ember was shocked when he heard this, and he couldn't say a word.

"You don't have to be worried, just think that my uncle and I will return your life. ”

Seeing Wen Ember's silent acquiescence, Bai Wangshu recited the fire bathing technique three times and asked, "Have you memorized it?"

Ember nodded slightly. Bai Wangshu smiled: "You can try to cultivate now, but remember not to rush it, otherwise it will lead to the disaster of burning yourself." ”

"Good. Wen Ember sat cross-legged, breathed into the dantian, and followed the heart method to point the fingers of the whole body's strength and luck on the acupuncture points between the two eyebrows. After about a pillar of incense, he only felt that his body was extremely hot, and the originally frozen and stagnant meridians were opened one by one. When the warmth flowed all over his body, he relaxed and spat out a mouthful of extremely cold blood.

Bai Wangshu was overjoyed when he saw this, and hurriedly beckoned the three people who were guarding outside. Liu Xunyin unlocked the acupuncture points sealed by the three of them and restored his sense of hearing.

"Ash, how are you?" she leaned over and reached out to check Wen Ash's pulse, and sighed for a moment of relief: "I have recovered a lot, and my life will not be in danger for the time being." ”

"It seems that we are not wrong, the fire bathing technique and the cold poison palm really restrain each other. Bai Xu stroked his beard and said with a smile: "Gongzi Wen has an excellent understanding, and he will soon be able to practice kung fu." ”

"Thank you both, you deserve it. Ember arched.

"You're just a little bit right, you don't have to be formal. Bai Xu helped him up: "Remember to take it step by step, don't try to be fast, otherwise it will damage your body and heart, and you will have endless troubles." ”

"Yes. Wen Ember replied.

Outside the cave, lightning and thunder roared, the wind whistled like a wild beast, and sand and rocks flew everywhere. Xiao Mu picked up some dead branches, piled them up in the air, and made a fire with difficulty, everyone gathered around it to keep warm, took out the dry food in the bag, roasted it on skewers and ate it.

Tang Qiqi broke open the steamed buns, but he had no appetite at all. She rubbed her cheeks and complained: "This damn weather, I don't know when it's a head, and our dry food is only enough for two days at most." ”

Xiao Mu smiled: "Didn't you just catch some good game, wouldn't it be a pity to throw it aside, it's better to make the best use of it and let them die as they deserve." ”

"If you want to eat you, who knows if these wolves are poisonous or not. Tang Qiqi bit the steamed bun fiercely.

"Miss Tang rest assured. Seeing the two arguing, Bai Wangshu smiled and said: "I looked around in the early morning and saw many wild apple trees in the canyon. ”

"There's water nearby, there's wild plants and berries, so you don't have to worry about food. Liu Xunyin said: "Bai Gongzi, since you have settled down, it is better to discuss how to deal with it." The position of the head of the Kunlun faction is vacant, and everyone is eyeing it, how can you take back the leadership from Situ Shun and convince the sect people, this is the problem that must be solved at the moment. ”

"Wangshu is young, he used to be protected by his brother, and he has never experienced strong winds and waves, so it is reasonable to disobey the public. Bai Xu sighed and said: "Situ Shun is a highly respected Left Protector in the eyes of the sect, and there are many henchmen under him, which is difficult to shake. If he is of good character, I would be willing to sincerely support him as the next leader, but ......"

"Mr. Bai, what happened here?" asked Liu Xunyin.

"The right protector Chen Da, who has devoted half his life to the Kunlun Sect, has made a lot of achievements, but he has a violent and irritable personality, and he fights when he disagrees, and he does not respect his brother very much. On the contrary, the left protector Situ Shun is not as good as Chen Da in martial arts, but he is good at strategizing, has a peaceful temperament, and has a very high status in the hearts of the sect. Bai Xu said: "My brother died suddenly a few months ago, and he died a strange death. Before he died, someone saw him arguing with Chen Da, everyone thought that he had killed his brother, he was so angry that he wanted to draw a knife to kill himself, but was stopped by Situ Shun and imprisoned in a dungeon. ”

"What's the trick on Bai Weiqiu's death?" Xiao Mu blurted out, seeing Bai Wangshu's gloomy expression, he hurriedly explained: "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to offend. ”

"It's fine. Bai Wangshu smiled indifferently: "I have accepted the reality." My father died without any signs of injury or poisoning, and on the night he stopped at the mourning hall, his body was gone, but the coffin showed no signs of being pried open. ”

"That's right. Xiao Mu frowned and pondered: "Since Situ Shun is respected, why should he hunt you and your uncle to kill him, wouldn't it be too much?"

Bai Wangshu frowned and shook his head: "When my father's body disappeared, the Kunlun sect members searched everywhere, almost turning over a hundred miles in a radius, but they didn't find his whereabouts. Half a month later, I was about to go to the study to clean up his ink treasure and keep a thought, but I saw Situ Shun sneakily rummaging through his father's correspondence. I stepped forward to stop him, but his temperament changed drastically, and he raised his sword and stabbed him. My men tried their best to stop him, so that I could escape with my uncle. ”
