Bai Shushan sprinkled realgar powder all around, looked up at the moon and stars in the sky, breathed a sigh of relief, leaned on a stone and fell asleep with his knees hugged.

The southern Xinjiang of the Shengshi Dynasty is sparsely populated, densely forested, and there are 100,000 mountains that stretch for dozens of miles. Walking in southern Xinjiang, it is inevitable to encounter snakes, insects, rats and ants, so realgar powder is an indispensable thing for people in southern Xinjiang.

Bai Shushan leaned on the stone for a long time, but he couldn't sleep.

It has been five days since I left Chang'an, and in two days, I can arrive in Nanjun, the so-called hometown timidity, maybe that's how it feels. However, more than that, there is an indescribable melancholy in my heart. He went to Chang'an to catch the exam, and now that a month has passed, instead of fame, he has been demoted to a commoner and returned to his hometown in embarrassment, how many people will look down on him?

"As soon as you enter the officialdom, it is as deep as the sea......" Bai Shushan looked at the bright moon above his head and couldn't help but smile bitterly.

"You're wrong. ”

At that moment, a man's voice came from nowhere, echoing through the woods.

When Bai Shushan heard this, he quickly got up from the ground and looked around with an ugly face.

"No need to look for it, I'm behind you. ”

Bai Shushan looked back and saw an official in a red court robe, standing on the big stone he was leaning on with his hands behind his back.

"Are you here to kill me?" Bai Shushan is not stupid, the red court uniform, that is only qualified to be worn by officials above the fifth grade, he doesn't think he knows any five-grade officials, besides, he came all the way to southern Xinjiang to find him, either appointed by the imperial court, or asked for his life by the imperial court.

"The prince can spare you, but the queen can't spare you. The official in the red court uniform said helplessly, "It's true that once you enter the officialdom, it is as deep as the sea, but as long as you talk less and do more, sooner or later there will be a day when you will eat and drink spicy food." You shouldn't mix the water of the Du Branch, and you shouldn't give face to the queen. ”

Bai Shushan didn't speak, he didn't do anything wrong, if you want to blame, just blame him for being nosy.

If the imperial court wants to investigate thoroughly, there will naturally be a holy decree to order him to thoroughly investigate the lawsuit. But after so much time, the court has not moved at all, obviously turning a blind eye to this, and he Bai Shushan insisted on making things bigger, and finally his life was gone, and no one can be blamed

"The queen really thinks of me, and arranges for you to do it yourself. Bai Shushan shook his head and smiled.

On the way to Nanjun, he had already thought that his big deal was to die, anyway, Nanjun had already lost the ties of his family, and he died a lot.

The court official walked down from the stone and said with a wry smile, "Because you don't die for a day, the queen mother can't sleep all day long......"

As the court official spoke, the whole person quietly pinched Bai Shushan's neck with his hand, but he didn't exert any force. At this moment, Baishu Mountain is as fragile as an egg, and it can disappear with just a slight pinch.

"Do you have any last words? To be honest, I don't want to do this, so I'll try to make your walk as safe as possible. The official said in a peaceful tone.

"Last words?" Bai Shushan said in a hoarse voice, looking up at the night sky, and muttered in a low voice, "Even if she said it, she couldn't have heard it......"

Hearing Bai Shushan's words, the court officials couldn't help but blink. What this poor scholar said was very interesting, if it weren't for the wrong identity, he would have wanted to hear who it was, and who would make him unqualified to convey these last words.

"Let him go, or you will die." ”

At this moment, a blood-red long sword silently pressed against the official in court clothes, which made him subconsciously tremble.

Bai Shushan turned his face sideways and saw that standing behind the official in court uniform was a woman in a black dress with a black veil on her face, but it faintly gave people a feeling that under the veil, there should be an extremely beautiful face.

"Girl, why bother?" the court official did not panic, but smiled, "Assassinating the court official, you should know that this is a capital crime, right?"

"I just want to keep him from dying, and the rest has nothing to do with me. The woman in the black dress said in an ethereal voice.

"In that case...... "The official in court clothes smiled slightly, "Well, it's up to you." ”

As he spoke, his palm loosened Bai Shushan's neck, but at this moment, Bai Shushan saw very clearly that his kind and peaceful eyes suddenly became sharp and fierce.

With a thud, a shiny sword stabbed out of the dirt and rushed straight up towards the lower body of the woman in the black dress.

The woman hurriedly withdrew the Blood Bonus Sword, jumped backwards, and performed a backflip, a light yellow blade brushed her face at the same time, and the sword soared into the sky.

The official in court clothes held the hilt of the sword, his eyes stared at the two green silks falling from the woman's head, and he couldn't help but show a solemn smile on his face, "Yes, if you can dodge my sword, you are qualified to save his life." ”

The woman stretched out her white palm and caught the two green strands that fell down, although they were only two inches long, it was enough to add a trace of anger to her face.

The head can be broken, the blood can flow, and the hair cannot be disordered.

"Tonight, you will stay in this southern Xinjiang and sleep forever......"

The woman grasped the two green silks tightly, and said in a cold tone, and the blood red sword stabbed forward.

I don't know when, a strong wind fell from the sky, and countless fallen leaves rose from the ground, rushing straight towards the officials in court clothes in an orderly manner. At the same time, the figure of the official in the court uniform was also constantly retreating, trying his best to dodge the sword qi of the woman.

Countless fallen leaves wrapped around the light yellow blade in the man's hand, and then an amazing scene appeared. Those blue-gray fallen leaves were dyed red in an instant, as fiery red as maple leaves, and the strong wind blew by, bringing a late autumn coolness.

"Qiu Hongjian?" said the woman, whose sideburns shook slightly, blinking her clear eyes.

The official in the court uniform did not reply, and the fiery red maple leaves rushed into the air like tens of thousands of arrows, shooting down towards the woman in the black dress.

In this case, the woman had no place to dodge at all, so she didn't think about dodging the falling leaves like ten thousand arrows.

A mysterious spiritual power fluctuation poured out of her body, and the bright red sword seemed to become more vivid, and there was a faint smell of blood in the air.

The officials in the court were very surprised when they saw this scene, this strange sword was actually sucking blood!

The woman in the black dress held her blood-red sword high and slashed out a scarlet light towards the fallen leaves in the sky, and the light curtain pierced the night sky, faintly shining with a halo. The constantly beating halo, like wisps of fire, turned into a large fireball under the night sky, scorching the fallen leaves one by one.

"Go!"

The woman slashed forward again, and the sword qi cut through the soil, bursting out of the mud, and at the same time, the big fireball in the sky also fell, and both sides smashed towards the man in the suit.

Bang!

It exploded like a thunderbolt on a sunny day, and Bai Shushan felt that his ears had been deaf. The light curtain dissipated, and the ground around the man in court clothes emitted a thick smell of smoke, and everything that could be ignited was burned out, and billowing smoke filled the air.

And the man in the court clothes who was in the flames, his face was like a sigh at the moment, he was panting hard, and the court clothes on his body were also tattered.

He stared straight at the woman in the black dress in front of him, "Why is your sword qi so similar to him, what does you have to do with him?"

"The little woman doesn't know who you're talking about, my lord. The woman in the black dress smiled and walked slowly forward.

She once said that she would sleep in southern Xinjiang.

"Who the hell are you?" The official stared at the woman in disbelief, and at this moment, he couldn't feel a trace of spiritual power fluctuation on her. But where did that terrifying sword aura come from?

This woman, what level of cultivation is she?

To be able to hit him hard with a single blow, it would have to be at least a sixth-order, but it was impossible for a sixth-order cultivator to get close to him without him noticing.

"Could it be the Seventh Order?" the court official quickly dispelled this thought. A woman is not yet twenty years old, and it is absolutely impossible for a seventh-order cultivator to start practicing in her mother's womb!

The woman was only three steps away from him, and the official in the court uniform clenched the sharp blade in his hand, and he wanted to fight, fighting with his last strength.

The light yellow sword exudes layers of mysterious sword intent, like the autumn wind and waves, and like the autumn rain.

It was as if he saw a blazing sun in his eyes, and the scorching sun emitted a raging fire that burned everything in front of him.

Burst!

His figure stayed in mid-air, his chest was pierced by the sword of the woman in the black dress, and the red blood flowed down, and it was difficult to tell whose blood it was.

The official in court slowly closed his eyes, and his gaze gradually disappeared into the darkness, and in this endless darkness, he saw!

That's a lamp......
