Chapter 37: The Little Boy

Hearing Tang Zixi's call, Qi Wei saluted Ni Pengcheng again, and then turned around and hurriedly walked over.

Before he could speak, he heard Tang Zixi smile and say, "Brother Qi, please help me take out the things here." Xiaobai told me that this is the elixir it prepared for me. As he spoke, he winked at the beast.

Seeing his relatives by his side, this pearl in the palm of his hand, who has been well protected for more than ten years, smiled from the bottom of his heart for the first time after being physically and mentally devastated.

Ni Pengcheng looked at Tang Zixi's bright smile, but there was a slight bitterness in his heart.

He himself couldn't figure out whether it was because she trusted a subordinate more than his cousin, or because she deliberately distanced herself from her after she came to her senses.

However, he knew very well that he had more or less pushed in the marriage between this little cousin and the Qin family, and it could also be said that he was one of the 'accomplices' who caused her current situation.

But, can he be blamed for this?

No one in the court knows that this marriage was designated by His Majesty and agreed to by General Tang himself. What can he say but to agree with it? What else can he do? Take 10,000 steps back, even if he puts forward a different opinion, is it really useful?

In the final analysis, he Ni Pengcheng is just a courtier and a junior!

He doesn't blame Xiaoxi, and he can't blame others, he only blames himself. I couldn't propose to my cousin earlier, and I always wanted to wait for her to grow up. Although he knew that she had always only regarded him as a cousin, he must have known only in his heart whether he only regarded her as a cousin......

"Hmm~ It's quite sweet!" Tang Zixi swallowed the white pill in one gulp, and deliberately praised it, "Xiaobai, you are really amazing, I don't have pain in my arm now, my head doesn't hurt, my chest doesn't hurt anymore, and the whole person feels comfortable." ”

The little beast was very excited to hear her words, and wagged its little tail as it scurried to and fro on the ground, and 'chirped' non-stop.

"Let's go, go to Liangzhou City!"

In the underground river grotto, a calm and powerful voice sounded.

The banks of the underground river, which had been bustling, were soon empty.

"What a smell of blood!"

Under the moonlight, a group of people came from afar, and it was the man surnamed Yun. I don't know when, Luo Chen, who ran to the front of the line, suddenly stopped, only to see him sniffle, and his brows furrowed instantly.

The man surnamed Yun also smelled the strong smell of blood, and also frowned. There was a sudden flash of light in his heart, and when he turned his head to look, Luo Chen also turned his head to look at him, and the two glanced at each other, they were old friends for many years, and they could be said to have understood each other's meaning in an instant.

Yun Yi, who was far behind, only to see the two of them suddenly speeding forward at the same time, the man surnamed Yun pulled out the long sword at his waist, and Luo Chen picked up a stick in his hand.

The two soon disappeared into the bushes.

The two men of the 'wolf' apparently also smelled the blood, and looked in the direction in which they had disappeared, and stopped hesitantly. The little boy didn't care so much, he also unsheathed his long sword, and followed closely with Balang.

Yun Yi did not speed forward, but he did not stop like the two of the 'wild wolf', still following behind unhurriedly, but secretly mentioned twelve points of caution.

Fortunately, the grass in this place is not very wide, and it is much smaller than the sea of flowers that I passed through before. After only walking for about ten feet, he was already stepping on a small open space.

Yun Yi looked around cautiously, but he didn't see the four people who came out before, and he couldn't help but be slightly stunned.

"Ahh

Suddenly, behind the boulder not far ahead, there was a scream, it was the voice of the little boy.

When Yun Yi heard this, his face couldn't help but change color slightly. According to his observations, this little boy is not weak, at least much taller than him. Not to mention that by his side, there is also a strong man like an iron tower to protect him.

Although I don't know him, I can be regarded as walking all the way. On another level, both of them were fooled by Luo Chen in order to find someone, so it can also be said to be a temporary alliance, and it is the right thing to take a hand. Moreover, if the skills of the little boy are in danger, then he Yunyi will naturally not be able to escape, it is better to join forces now, maybe there is still a glimmer of life.

Thinking of this, Yun Yishun picked up a simple knife on the ground and walked quickly towards the place where the sound came from. At the same time, he vigilantly paid attention to the movements around him, for fear that someone would rush out of nowhere.

But fortunately, there was no danger, and there was no movement until I walked near the boulder.

Yun Yi's doubts suddenly rose in his heart, and he suddenly had some doubts, whether this was the enemy who was luring him to take the bait, in fact, the four of them had already gone away.

At this moment, I heard a voice asking, "How is it?" It was the voice of the man surnamed Yun.

"None of them are alive!" replied Luo Chen.

When Yun Yi heard this, he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, fortunately, he was not attacked, and he did not go far. But listening to their conversation, it was as if they had discovered something.

He took a few steps, and as soon as he got around the boulder, he gasped at the sight before him.

The long row on the ground, neatly arranged, was all of them—corpses!

With the exception of the few on the far left, the rest of the corpses were covered in blood and died horribly. Each blood-strewn face was a look of stunned, surprised, and shocked, as if it was in disbelief that he had been killed suddenly.

However, judging by the messiness of their clothes, it doesn't look like they did it before they died, but it looks like they were turned over after death.

Could it be that someone else has been here?

Yun Yi turned his head and was about to speak, but found that Luo Chen had already taken out a small cloth bag in his arms, took out a pair of silver gloves and put them on, and then took out a long silver needle and walked towards the nearest corpse.

Under everyone's gaze, Luo Chen squatted down and untied the corpse's clothes, revealing his strong chest. On the chest, there is a blue-black palm print.

At this moment, Luo Chen made an extremely strange move, first compared his palm on the palm print, then raised the silver needle in his hand, pierced it from the sea of qi of the corpse, and after a few gentle twists, he pulled out the silver needle, put it in front of his eyes and looked at it carefully, and gradually frowned tightly.

The man surnamed Yun actually recognized the origin of the palm technique at a glance, but when he saw that Luo Chen was silent for a long time, he even took out silver gloves and silver needles. He knew the origin of the details, and naturally knew very well the uniqueness of their Laoshan lineage, and couldn't help but doubt his judgment, and said softly tentatively: "Xuanyin Palm?"

Luo Chen put the silver needle in his hand to the tip of his nose and sniffed it gently, his face was a little solemn, he shook his head slightly, and said, "This is indeed very similar to the long-rumored Xuanyin palm on the rivers and lakes." ”

At this moment, the little boy also recovered from the initial fright, and couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed about his gaffe, seeing that the two of them didn't talk about the key points when they asked and answered, he couldn't help but ask: "What kind of martial arts is the Xuanyin Palm? Why have you never heard of it?"

If you put this question in normal times, it would be nothing. But now, in this eerily quiet situation, her voice inevitably seemed a little abrupt.

Obviously, she herself was aware of the problem and hurriedly covered her mouth.

Luo Chen turned a deaf ear, as if he hadn't heard her words, just looked at the silver needle in his hand and continued to think about something.

The man surnamed Yun withdrew his gaze from staring at Luo Chen, and glanced at her lightly.

Although he did not scold, or despise. But just this glance has made the little boy feel an indescribable embarrassment. His face quickly flushed, and while secretly scolding himself for being reckless, he also greeted the man surnamed Yun several times.
