"So you have a way to get Wei Xueying out?" The night was very dark, the rain began to fall, and the whirring wind was like a ghost pouring out sorrow and crying to the world. There was an oil lamp lit in the room upstairs of the inn, and Ma Yan looked at Xu Changfeng and asked.

"I'm not completely sure, but that's the only way to do it at the moment. Xu Changfeng nodded. He had just parted ways with Half Sword and returned to the inn.

"Who is that person, and is his words credible?" asked Ma Yan with some concern.

"I can't tell you who it is just yet. Xu Changfeng shook his head and said, "But his words are absolutely credible." If there is an enemy in front of me and behind me, I will not hesitate to give him my back, and I will do my best to protect his back. ”

He and Banjian had only met a few times, but the trust between the two had risen to the point where they could not be easily severed. It's just because Yao Xi is the matchmaker between them.

Ma Yan thought about it, and still asked uneasily, "Do you really need my help?"

"I won't take Wei Xueying's life as a child's play, so I believe in him, and I hope you can believe in me too. Xu Changfeng said seriously.

Ma Yan recalled the scene when Xu Changfeng returned to the inn at night, which was enough to prove that he said this with his conscience.

"Oh well. Ma Yan nodded, and didn't say anything.

"If ......" Xu Changfeng thought for a while, "If I can't come back tomorrow night, you can rush back to Chang'an and tell Senior Sister Long about this, I think it should be too late." ”

Return to the Sword Courtyard and look for Uncle Su for help. It's not that Xu Changfeng hasn't thought of this method, but it's just that this back and forth takes too much time, and it's easy to startle the snake. Moreover, if you don't encounter half a sword, even if you tell Uncle Su the news, it won't help. The prosperous dynasty is too broad, and it is easy to hide someone.

Before leaving, Banjian said that he had already found the traces of the other party, and he still needed to confirm it tonight. Tomorrow, he will come to the inn and take Xu Changfeng to rescue Wei Xueying.

As a thief, the last thing he is afraid of is to look for it. Whether it is looking for people or things, these are the basic skills that you should have to become a thief.

Xu Changfeng also promised to help him keep it a secret, Banjian's identity is too sensitive, if it is revealed, even he will not be able to escape it.

Nothing was said all night.

Early the next morning, when Xu Changfeng woke up, he was the only one left in the room. Ma Yan went to Zhao's house early and continued to be his apprentice. Although he didn't have to be an apprentice anymore, he felt that the Zhao family was quite pitiful, so he wanted to stay there and help them do more work.

Xu Changfeng pushed open the window, and the entire Tiandu County seemed to be shrouded in a gray cloud, and the rain continued to fall from the miserable white sky, which made Xu Changfeng feel very comfortable, and his favorite thing was to watch the rain fall without a trace in front of the window and listen to the howling of the wind.

His state of mind was much calmer than yesterday, especially after encountering the half-sword, he had a sense of solid security in his heart.

"Half-sword ......" he muttered in a low voice as he looked at the mist-shrouded mountainside in the distance.

Because there is only one scabbard, it is called a half sword.

For Xu Changfeng, there were many secrets hidden in Banjian's body, and driven by the curiosity in his heart, he couldn't wait to ask them one by one. But he knew that even if he asked, Banjian might not be able to say.

And isn't it the same for half-swords?

The encounter between him and the half-sword is very mysterious. It's like there is a fate in the dark, destined for them to pass by in that rainy night.

The time of the day passed like this, Xu Changfeng didn't know how long he stared at the mountains in the distance, as if there was a very beautiful woman in the mountains, dancing in the rain, using the clouds as skirts and the wind as silk and bamboo.

And in his body, it was like a wooden basin filled with water. The water was full, but there was still a steady stream of water pouring in, and the edge of the tub was overflowing. His vision has also shifted from a small wooden basin to a new world.

It was a wonderful feeling, and it made him feel an indescribable sense of joy.

"Late stage of the marrow washing realm!" Xu Changfeng suddenly said with a smile.

This is what is called epiphany in the spiritual world.

This rain gave him a deeper understanding of the perception of the aura of heaven and earth, which allowed his cultivation to move from the early stage of the marrow washing realm to the late stage of the marrow washing realm.

Xu Changfeng knew very well that in addition to this rain, there was more anxiety in his heart. Under the pressure of pressure, the improvement of the cultivation level is as smooth and natural as a matter of course.

"Guest officer, there is a son downstairs, saying that he is looking for you. At this moment, the knock on the door of the shopkeeper interrupted Xu Changfeng's thoughts.

He replied in a low voice, "Got it, I'll go down now." ”

He closed the window, and the light in the room suddenly became darker. He carried the Lone Shadow Short Sword and the Purple Sword, lifted an oil umbrella, glanced around the room again, made sure nothing had fallen, and then pushed the door and walked out.

When he came downstairs to the inn, he saw a man with a scabbard on his back, sitting at a table eating a bowl of hot noodles.

In the next place, there is a bowl of identical noodles.

Xu Changfeng walked to the position, picked up the chopsticks and was about to eat noodles.

"In the late stage of the Cleansing Realm, this is a good sign. Banjian was eating noodles with his head buried in his head, and suddenly said with a smile.

Xu Changfeng also smiled slightly, and then chewed slowly and ate the noodles. After a while, Banjian put down the big bowl in his hand, and the bowl was empty, not even a single green onion was left. He sat quietly, waiting for Xu Changfeng to finish the noodles.

Banjian watched Xu Changfeng put down his chopsticks and whispered, "Bring your sword and umbrella, it's time to go." After tonight, the person you are looking for will leave Chang'an forever, and there is only one chance. ”

Xu Changfeng frowned, nodded and asked, "Where are we going?"

"Outside Tiandu County, the mountain temple. After half a sword finished speaking, he opened the oil umbrella and walked into the rain.

It was dark, and I could only vaguely see a vague figure, walking lightly in the rain. Xu Changfeng followed, and suddenly found that there was not a drop of rain on Banjian's shoes.

Two people, three swords, two oil umbrellas, and a rain.

This is the rivers and lakes!

A road of no return.

At this moment, Xu Changfeng suddenly understood what the so-called rivers and lakes in those novels were all about.

"What do you need me to do?" Xu Changfeng asked in a low voice, his words covered by the cacophony of rain.

"Create chaos. Even so, Half Sword could hear it clearly, and he also whispered, "You only need to buy me Half Pillar of Incense's time, and I can deal with their leaders." ”

"Is their leader strong?" Xu Changfeng asked.

"At least the fifth order. Half Sword said lightly, without a hint of urgency.

This made Xu Changfeng feel shocked in his heart, and he began to slowly figure out the strength of the half-sword.

"What if I can't do it?" Xu Changfeng then asked.

Banjian said expressionlessly, "Although you only have a first-order cultivation, I believe that in that situation, you should know how to do it." ”

There is only one answer, and that is to kill.

It's easy to say, but it's not easy to do.

Especially in this case, anyone who is soft-hearted will let himself die.

Many heroes who walk the rivers and lakes have learned this truth only at the cost of leaving special marks on their bodies.

However, Banjian believes that Xu Changfeng knows how to do it. Otherwise, he would not have survived to this day.

As time passed, the rain became heavier and heavier, and the mountain temple was close at hand.

This mountain temple is a legacy of the previous dynasty, since the founding of the Shengshi Dynasty, there are many practitioners, and the theory of ghosts and gods has become vulnerable, resulting in the abandonment of this mountain temple. Except for a few people of the older generation, not many people really know that this place is indeed a good place for Tibetans.

"Can I ask you a question?" Xu Changfeng said suddenly.

"Just ask. Banjian nodded, now this young man is qualified to know some things.

"How did you and Ruyue meet?" What made Banjian unexpected, Xu Changfeng would actually ask such a nonsensical question. It was only because of Wei Xueying that he thought of what happened to Ming Ruyue.

Although he is in that decaying place, he can still meet a pure-hearted confidant, and his life is not too miserable.

Banjian was silent for a long time, and said in a deep voice: "The backstage of Menghualou is very hard, and most of the things I stole are sold there. Speaking of which, I really have a lot of fate with you. Once, a guy who doesn't have long eyes got the idea of Ruyue......"
