Chapter 7 A Blind Eye
Seeing the scene on the floating platform, Yang Ning's expression couldn't help but move slightly. I saw Ling Chong's right hand protecting his chest with one palm, but the other hand was behind his back, standing in the middle of the floating platform, his steps moved slightly from time to time, changing the direction, and a scholar in Tsing Yi with beautiful eyebrows and handsome eyes wandered around him, looking around, a red silk fluttering and flying, glimpsing a gap, like a poisonous snake out of a hole to attack Ling Chong, but Ling Chong was calm and calm, until the moment when Hong Aya came to the body, he avoided the opponent's killing move with his smart footwork, and his palm was condensed but not released, without the slightest intention of taking the initiative to attack.
Although Yang Ning is not familiar with the world, but his knowledge of martial arts is unmatched by few people, and he can see through at a glance that Ling Chong is using the strategy of static braking, presumably because the injury has not healed, so it is necessary to reduce the chance of leaking flaws as much as possible, and the scholar in Tsing Yi is wandering around, avoiding the real and the virtual, Once Ling Chong leaks a little flaw, he will use a killer attack, this kind of hand-to-hand method, it is obvious that this scholar in Tsing Yi will suffer some losses, because Yang Ning can see that whether it is internal force or moves, Ling Chong is above this scholar, and if he drags on, it is better to be still than to be still, obviously Ling Chong has the upper hand, but Ling Chong's internal injury is always a hidden danger, and it is still difficult to predict the outcome or defeat.
Seeing that the battle situation was still in the process of stalemate, Yang Ning lost interest in paying attention, and couldn't help but have a thought, his eyes swept away, and he found Qingping's figure, only to see her standing beside Yi Buping, looking at the floating platform in a daze, a pair of clear and moving phoenix eyes flashed from time to time, and her eyebrows frowned slightly, obviously with countless difficulties in her heart. Although she changed into a yellow-faced teenager, and her appearance became ordinary and dull, but in Yang Ning's eyes, she only saw the beautiful facial features covered by the drug, and the soft and strong eyes, after looking at it for a while, Yang Ning's lips unconsciously rose, revealing a dazzling smile, like a ray of sunshine breaking through the clouds in winter, and more like a pool of spring water at the beginning of ice and snow. At this moment, Qingping felt something, looked up, although Yang Ning's body was almost completely hidden behind the window, but the two of them had a heart, and at the same time looked into the depths of each other's extremely familiar eyes. Eyes touched, both of them were shocked, although the two had already recognized each other through their eyes, but at that time, Yang Ning was anxious about the battle situation, Qingping was also exhausted, and they had no intention of caring about anything else, but at this moment, both of them subconsciously forgot everything outside their bodies, and their eyes were facing each other, only the infinite joy of reunion after the catastrophe.
I don't know how long it took, Qingping came to her senses first, and glanced at the battle situation that was still in a stalemate, at this time Qiu Suhua's figure was getting slower and slower, and her expression was a little more lazy, her cherry lips were open, her head was raised and she was whistling, and her whistling voice was low, like a lonely goose groaning, and like a pine wave whistling, just the river wind hunting, her whistling sound was like nothing, and she could only feel the faint sound, although she couldn't really hear it, but after listening to it for a long time, she felt extremely irritable in her heart. Shuangjue is proficient in "Heavenly Demon Sword Dance", of course Qingping can hear the danger in this howling, but where can Qingping still take care of others, only thinking about how to talk to Yang Ning. When he was anxious, Yang Ning's voice came from his ears: "Qingping, why did you come here? Sister Luqi? Is Luo Chengyu embarrassed for you?"
Qingping was overjoyed in her heart, knowing that Yang Ning must have used a unique mental method to transmit the sound to herself, but after understanding Yang Ning's question, Qingping was so angry that she almost jumped up, although her martial arts were good, but at such a long distance, she didn't have the ability to transmit the sound to Yang Ning's ears, she was afraid that if a word came out, Yang Ning heard it, and others heard it, in this case, how did she answer?
Fortunately, although Yang Ning is simple, he is not stupid, as soon as the words came out, he also knew that he had said the wrong thing, and hurriedly remedied: "If Luo Chengyu embarrasses you, Qingping, you will nod, if not, you will shake your head, sister, rest assured, if someone dares to offend you, even if it is heaven and earth, I will take his life." β
Qingping's heart was sweet when she heard this, and then anger flashed in her eyes, thinking that the center of her way north was as hot as fire, but she could only remain silent, until Liyang City found a chance to escape, and left her sister and Zhongbo in the tiger's mouth, so she couldn't wait to nod immediately, so that Yang Ning could take this evil breath for herself. But although she has a strong temperament, she is not a person who does not distinguish between right and wrong, after thinking about it for a while, and thinking that although Luo Chengyu forced herself and her sister to go north, she really did not feel sorry for the two, and she was courteous along the way, especially very respectful to her sister, which she saw in her eyes. If it weren't for this, how could she rest assured that Lu Qi would be left alone in the tiger's mouth?
In Yang Ning's opinion, Qingping only hesitated slightly, then shook her head and replied, and when she got this answer, Yang Ning couldn't help but feel relieved. Until this moment, it was difficult for him to sort out his feelings for Luo Chengyu, because of his mother's obvious preference, he was full of hatred for his unmasked brother-in-law, but after careful consideration, it was not so much hatred as half envy and half jealousy. But when they met on the Xuanyuan platform, without knowing the identity of the other party, he was attracted by Luo Chengyu's instrument vane, the two hit it off at first sight, Luo Chengyu naturally cherished it, and although Yang Ning was cold-faced and cold-hearted, he also gave birth to brotherly feelings. If it weren't for that, even if it was a strict order from the Lord of Huofeng, he would not be able to let his subordinates show mercy, and even entrust the double absolute to Luo Chengyu to take care of. Although his feelings for Luo Chengyu are very complicated now, and it is still unknown whether he is an enemy or a friend, but when he learned from Qingping that Luo Chengyu did not live up to his expectations, he still couldn't help but secretly rejoice, and pressed the excitement in his heart, he continued to spread his voice and asked: "Are you and Lord Yihui old acquaintances, is he willing to help Commander Ximen?"
He has never hidden the emotions in his heart to Qingping, and it is naturally difficult to hide the trace of relief and joy in his voice, but Qingping frowned slightly when he heard it in his ears. She knows more things than Yang Ning, Yi Buping is extremely powerful above the river, in addition to holding the Jinfan Society, an elite general, there are countless small water thieves who have reported to him, he can collect intelligence Not only is Ximen Rin difficult to compare, but even although the Tang clan has owned the river for many years, he is not as well-informed as him. Qingping learned a lot of secrets from Yi Buping's mouth, she knew that Shi Ming launched the alliance this time in addition to intercepting Ximen Rin and his party, but also had the intention of integrating the forces of all parties on the river, and she also knew that Ximen Rin did not come unprepared, the two sides were evenly matched, the outcome was unpredictable, and the ten decisive battles in front of her were just a prologue or a fog, the only thing that did not refer to was why Ximen Rin still had to deal with Shi Ming's provocation when he lost his geographical advantage and people.
But although Yi Buping knows about these many secrets, he has no intention of profiting from them, his position is impartial, he just wants to watch coldly, if it weren't for Qingping's begging, he would never have flowed into this troubled water, even so, he just promised to rescue Yang Ning when the war broke out between the two sides. If Yang Ning had the idea of helping Ximen Rin, she naturally couldn't sit idly by, but if she wanted to have enough strength to intervene in this fire, which might be a civil strife, she needed to change Yi Buping's mind, which was not an easy thing, so for her, she really didn't want to do more.
And in Qingping's heart, she didn't approve of Yang Ning helping Ximen Rin, she knew Yang Ning's rejection of Youji. Although I don't know why Yang Ning changed his previous thoughts, he actually cared about the safety of everyone in Youji as a "prisoner", and the implication was that he had plans to go to Xindu. But Qingping was thoughtful, thinking of Luo Chengyu's tone of joy and sadness when he asked his sister about Yang Ning, and some of Yang Ning's vague words in the past, she guessed that Yang Ning must have some kind of close relationship with Youji, and it must be a grudge entanglement, and it is difficult to explain. Therefore, she extremely didn't want Yang Ning to go to Xindu so rashly, and he was still a prisoner. Xindu is Luo Chengyu's sphere of influence, even the royal order of Yan King Xu Yan is not as good as Luo Chengyu's Jun order in Xindu, if you get there, Yang Ning is weak, and then he and Lu Qi are involved, isn't it life and death. Qingping would never have seen such a thing happen, which is why she must escape. Unless Yang Ning's safety can be effectively guaranteed, the letter must not go, this is Qingping's opinion. And this guarantee is not something that can be obtained by a promise from Ximen Rin or even Luo Chengyu, unless there is enough strength, Qingping will never let Yang Ning take risks. After repeatedly considering the pros and cons, Qingping gritted her silver teeth and finally shook her head firmly.
Although the two were far apart, and the subtle changes in Qingping's expression were also covered by the medicine, Yang Ning could still clearly feel Qingping's strong disapproval, Yang Ning was in a trance in his heart, thinking of the relationship over the years, although Qingping was not as gentle and generous as Lu Qi, but he never forced himself to do anything, but this time it was different. Although I can't imagine how Qingping got here, it must not be an easy process, and it is even more obvious that Qingping not only disagrees with her current plan, but is also dissatisfied with the move of entrusting their sisters to Luo Chengyu that day. In Yang Ning's impression, the two sisters, Lu Qi is silent and gentle, Qingping is hearty and intelligent, if you talk about intelligence, Lu Qi does not mention it, Qingping must be far better than herself, since Qingping resolutely refuses to help Ximen Rin, and does not agree to go to Xindu, so is she wrong?
As soon as such a thought was born, Yang Ning's gaze couldn't help but pass over Ximen Rin's body, but he saw that Ximen Rin's eyebrows looked indifferent and calm, and his gaze was even more imperceptible when he looked at the figure of Ling Chong who was entangled on the floating platform. At this moment, feeling Yang Ning's substantial gaze, Ximen Rin had a feeling in his heart, pretended to sigh anxiously, stretched out his hand to stroke his forehead, but looked behind him with the rest of his eyes, and saw a pair of phoenix eyes that blended with ice and fire staring at him in a daze. Ximen Rin forcibly held back the horror in his heart, and deliberately allowed himself to spread a trace of joy in his heart, showing a look of surprise in his eyes, but extremely guilty.
Seeing this, Yang Ning's heart was hot, and he couldn't help but think of Ximen Rin's careful care these days, and he couldn't give birth to a trace of suspicion anymore. What's more, the cold moon of Yanshan, the sad song of Yishui, that is the homeland haunting the dreams of his mother, and it is the place that he has longed for for many years in his dreams, although the hope of returning to Youji with his mother has been completely shattered, but now that he feels the call of family affection, Yang Ning can't bear to give up the extravagant hope that has been entangled in his heart for a long time, if he can't see the land where his mother grew up with his own eyes, what is the joy of life, and what is the pain of death?
Having made up his mind in his heart, Yang Ning retracted his gaze, and said to Qingping: "Sister, I want to help Ximen Commander, and then go to Xindu with him, sister rest assured, my internal strength has all recovered, even if there is any danger, I can get out, but sister don't go, if you can, sister can find a place to wait for me, and after I see Luo Chengyu, I will come back to you with Sister Luqi, okay?"
Qingping heard Yang Ning speak, only to feel a chill in her heart, she knew Yang Ning's temperament, and some trivial matters were okay, if it was such a big thing, she would never be able to change his decision, and although Yang Ning's last sentence was asking, but when she heard his firm tone, she knew that Yang Ning was determined to go to the letter. Thinking of this, Qingping was even more anxious, if Yang Ning was determined to help Ximen Rin, it would inevitably be involved in the future war again, but she was worried that Yang Ning's internal strength was too much and it was difficult to cope with the hard battle below, so she couldn't help but complain secretly, and tried her best to make him not have to deal with the wheel war of Jiangdong Qunxiong, but he was good, and he actually took the initiative to heal others, didn't he think that he was King Kong's incorruptible body?
Qingping naturally didn't know that Yang Ning would be a blessing in disguise, the internal force was not only fully restored, but also more refined, in fact, no matter which school of healing the heart, it was to the detriment of oneself and others, with few exceptions, it was Yang Ning's "Sun and Moon Longevity", if it wasn't for Yang Ning's desperate bet, it would only end up with a loss of true yuan, so Qingping only said that Yang Ning's internal strength had been greatly damaged at the moment, and if he intervened in the battle below, it would inevitably be very dangerous. I remembered that Yang Ning actually called her sister again, this was a title that I had never heard after exchanging heartfelt words that day, and I guessed that Yang Ning must be in turmoil at the moment, and she couldn't help but feel gloomy in her heart, a resolute look flashed between her eyebrows, and she turned around and walked towards Yi Buping, who was healing.
Yang Ning looked at Qingping's calm and calm back in a daze, and only felt a trace of warmth from the bottom of his heart, although Qingping had no way to tell him what he was thinking, but he clearly knew that Qingping would definitely help him. It's just that after the initial touch, Yang Ning had a sense of arrogance in his heart, and suddenly reached out and pushed open the window that covered his figure, and the moment the sun reflected on his face, the look on Yang Ning's face was as cold as ice and snow, and a pair of phoenix eyes flashed with dazzling murderous intent. Ignoring the countless eyes that fell on his body, Yang Ning just looked up proudly, stood in front of the window with his hands in his hands, looked at it lightly, and said in his heart, how can I, Yang Ning, need the help of others, although there are thousands of people in front of me, but in my eyes it is just a chicken and a dog, thinking of this, the corners of his eyebrows and eyes are more and more rebellious, and his body has turned into a phantom, floating out of the porthole, the dust is not shocked, and it gently falls on Ximen Rin's side, but he is unaware that Ximen Rin saw his no fireworks when his eyes flashed a cold lightγ
Ximen Rin could naturally see that Yang Ning was full of energy, and his eyebrows and skin were even more faintly bright, which was clearly a sign of internal force improvement, where was there a half-cent loss of true yuan, but Ximen Rin couldn't figure out why Yang Ning would not retreat but advance after treating Lin Zhiheng's injuries, that is, Yang Ning didn't pay attention to Lin Zhiheng at all and healed his own injuries, and it was impossible to have such progress during this time, and Ximen Rin even concluded that Yang Ning would never go back on his word, so he asked with concern: " How is Zhiheng, can his martial arts be restored?"
Hearing Ximen Rin's question, Yang Ning said with a little smugness: "Uncle Shi rest assured, as long as he cultivates for a few months, Zhiheng can not only recover his martial arts, but if he can retreat and practice for a period of time and refine the true yuan I left in his body, he will definitely be able to make great progress in martial arts. β
When Ximen Rin heard this, his eyes moved slightly, and he secretly thought about the information revealed in Yang Ning's words, although he asked Yang Ning to heal Lin Zhiheng's injuries, but he didn't expect that there would be such an effect, originally he just wanted Lin Zhiheng to be able to recover seventy or eighty percent of his martial arts, so as not to become a wasted person, and by the way, he would be satisfied if he consumed Yang Ning's true yuan. Unexpectedly, Yang Ning was so generous, not only cured Lin Zhiheng's injuries, but also left part of his true yuan in Lin Zhiheng's body. You must know that the true yuan and the true qi are different, and those who practice martial arts are the same siblings, and because of the difference in physique, the true qi of each other is mutually exclusive, and it is absolutely impossible to use the method of instilling true qi to enhance the skills of others. The true element is transformed by the essence of the human body, and it has the purest qualities, so that it can be absorbed and refined by others. It's just that the true yuan is the foundation of a person who practices martial arts, even if he is as close as a father and son, there are very few people who are willing to sacrifice their true yuan to enhance the strength of the other party. Yang Ning's actions like this, are he really ignorant of the world, or buy people's hearts, Ximen Rin forced his heart to have mixed feelings, and said lightly: "Why does Zijing not cherish himself like this, even if he loves Zhiheng's qualifications, he shouldn't be reluctant to do it at this time, but I see that your true yuan is full and there is no loss, which is also rare." β
Yang Ning couldn't help but blush, although he was blessed by misfortune and his internal strength was diligent, but this was just luck, such a risk really shouldn't be, but he was arrogant, although he knew that he was wrong, but verbally he easily refused to admit it, his eyes flashed, he fell on the floating platform, and then he said: "Uncle Shi thinks that the deputy commander can win this battle?"
Ximen Rin's eyebrows raised slightly, seeing that Yang Ning avoided talking about why Zhenyuan had not lost, he was even more suspicious in his heart, he was a registered disciple of the Martial Arts Sect, and because the current sect master was his biological brother, although some martial arts could not be cultivated, at least he had heard of it, and he had never heard of any mental method that could compensate for the consumption of True Yuan in such a short period of time, could it be that there was something unspeakable in it? It's just that although he has doubts in his heart, Ximen Rin doesn't dare to ask, after all, he has a ghost in his heart, so he is afraid that Yang Ning will accidentally see through the killing intent in his heart for a while, so he smiled reluctantly, and said casually: "Deputy Commander Ling's injury has not healed, and Qiu Suhua is scheming, but I am afraid that it will not be easy to win." β
Yang Ning is not familiar with intrigue, otherwise he can guess that something is wrong just by Ximen Rin's actions that he wants to cover up, and his originally extremely sensitive intuition has also fallen into the obstacle of family affection, and he didn't realize the murderous intent in the depths of Ximen Rin's eyes. It's not that he doesn't want to tell Ximen Rin the beauty of "The Sun and the Moon Live Together", but just looking at the predecessors of the past dynasties, he knows that it is best not to leak it easily, even the same is true for the children of the same sect, not to mention that Ximen Rin is a registered disciple after all, and this mental method may not be taught, so he is reluctant to mention why he has recovered so quickly to secret, but he doesn't know that it has strengthened Ximen Rin's jealousy, but he is pleased that Ximen Rin is generous, and he did not get to the bottom of it, but also strengthened his heart of help, so he said to the point: " Although the women's martial arts that fought with Deputy Commander Ling were ordinary, they also had a unique way, and they used the charm so superbly, using the moving demeanor and the temptation of the voice and smile to shake the opponent's mind, and then take advantage of the weakness to defeat the enemy. Illusion and other side ways, even if they are successful, they are just like spring flowers for a while, after all, they are rootless trees, and there will be a day when they will wither and dry up. β
Ximen Rin secretly admired Yang Ning's insight, but said gloomily: "Her cultivation like this, not to mention Zijing, is an ordinary opponent with a strong will, and it is difficult to succeed, but Ling Chong's internal injuries have not healed, and her soul has been hit hard recently, it is the most fragile time for her body and mind, a little carelessness will allow her to succeed, and the low howling sound from Qiu Suhua's mouth must be a secret method spread by the Tianyin Sect, both the Tianyin Sect and the Sunu Sect are good at attacking the heart, but with the rhythm of the sound, the other with the complexion, she can be eclectic, but it is rare." β
Yang Ning shook his head and said: "Uncle Shi values this woman too much, the martial arts of Tianyin Sect are transformed from qin, chess, calligraphy and painting, and act recklessly, it is the way of nature, and the rhythm kills people, which is one of the most profound martial arts. β
Ximen Rin said thoughtfully: "I heard that Shuangjue challenged the descendants of Cuihu with the Heavenly Demon Sword Dance in Yueyang Tower, and it was true, if Miss Lu Qi can keep improving, she will definitely be able to magnify the portal of Tianyin Sect in the future, but how to deal with this matter in front of her, you can't let Ling Chong be defeated like this, this time I came to the south, there are a lot of Ling brothers in this seat, if I let him die here again, I am afraid that this seat will regret it for the rest of his life." β
Yang Ning's eyes flashed, but he didn't say anything anymore, just looked at the floating platform lightly, as if he was not interested in Ximen Rin's troubles, but Ximen Rin noticed that his eyes were a little flickering, and couldn't help but smile secretly in his heart, knowing that Yang Ning would definitely not let go, although he didn't know why Yang Ning suddenly became positive, but this was always a good thing.
Ling Chong's eyes hung low in the middle of the stage, and the palm ring had been compressed to a few feet in the sky by the red silk, and he couldn't help but feel a trace of regret in his heart. He had fought with Qiu Suhua, and knew that this woman's martial arts were unpredictable, but she was not very clever, she had never taken risks and made difficulties, and she fought quickly, firstly, because this woman was slippery and unwilling to fight hard, and secondly, he didn't want to touch the injury, so he decided to win the battle. In addition, he has already seen that Ximen Rin has allowed the two teenagers to fight to the death for a while, but it is just to delay time, after all, he has been under Ximen Rin for many years, and he doesn't need to ask more, and he knows that it is best to delay time, even if he loses, it may not be bad. And Ling Chong is also quite conceited, when most of the internal injuries have recovered, Qiu Suhua is definitely not his opponent, so he let Qiu Suhua fight, and never forced her to fight head-on.
But she didn't expect that since Qiu Suhua dared to fight, she naturally had the means to defeat the enemy, and when she used her charm, she was invisible and very secretive, and by the time Ling Chong found out that something was wrong, she was already in decline. However, although the situation was critical, Ling Chong was not overly worried, but just held Yuan Shouyi, and strongly held on to prevent Qiu Suhua from breaking through his defense, after all, Qiu Suhua's actions like this must have great losses, as long as he supported it, he could win without a fight. And although he has not cultivated the secret method of the spirit, the mind honed in the blood and fire is not something that ordinary charms can shake.
Qiu Suhua is also uncomfortable, she is scheming, she is the best at taking advantage of the situation, knowing that Ling Chong must not pay much attention to herself because of the battle of Tu Shui, and she also knows that Ling Chong is injured, she must defend more and attack less, and seek to be invincible first, this is not that Ling Chong is timid, but she can't look down on the victory or defeat, so she fights and fights, let Ling Chong let down his vigilance, and then use charm to weaken Ling Chong's fighting spirit. The inferior charm is just the **** that uses appearance and demeanor to inspire men, but the charm that Qiu Suhua has learned is extremely superior, and a smile can also shake the opponent's mind, but in such a bitter fight, he used the "Heavenly Demon Sound" In this way, the Tianyin Sect, who only knew one scale and half a claw, was really exhausted, but although he succeeded, Ling Chong never refused to give up the last resistance, and unconsciously, Qiu Suhua's forehead was already full of sweat, and her eyes were already like hazy spring rain, making it impossible to see what she was thinking in her heart.
Just when the two of them were fighting hard and not retreating, Qiu Suhua's eyes caught a glimpse of the appearance of a cyan figure, and she felt a tremor in her heart, didn't Zi Jing, a disciple of the Martial Arts Sect, go to heal that Youji young man, why did she come out now? Although she didn't know Shi Ming's true goal, she was clear about Shi Ming's importance to this young man, and even did not hesitate to disobey the tacit understanding between the disciples of the Demon Sect and cooperate with Cuihu to deal with this young man. Now that Yang Ning has reappeared, then he shouldn't delay any longer, only a quick solution, otherwise the longer it takes, the more this young man's internal strength will recover.
Thinking of this, Qiu Suhua's eyes showed a ray of coldness, and in an instant, he was covered by ten thousand tenderness, slightly slowed down the offensive of Hongyan, seemed to be a little tired, and suddenly paused, he actually stopped attacking, and then raised his jade hand to wipe the sweat on his forehead, and his pretty face was as warm as jade because of the previous hard battle, and two red halos rose because of the previous hard battle, reflecting the plain hands like ice and snow, and the demeanor between the gestures was all directions, and the eyebrows were even more moving.
There was a faint sound of inhalation all around, but Qiu Suhua was unconscious, and complained softly: "Lord Ling, why are you so stubborn? You and I are uncomfortable for a while, I am a female streamer, even defeat is just an ordinary thing, if you are defeated, it will be a great shame, and the injury is not healed, so you have been fighting with Suhua for a long time, alas, the commander of Ximen is too inconsiderate of adults." β
Seeing that Qiu Suhua stopped, Ling Chong was already surging at the moment, if he forcibly made another move, he was afraid that the suppressed injury would attack, so he was also happy to stop temporarily, and while secretly breathing, he said coldly: "Miss Qiu is trying to sow discord, this kind of means is too unpopular, do you think Ling will be instigated by you?"
Qiu Suhua smiled faintly, her eyebrows and eyes were full, and she shook her head gently, somehow, the square scarf of the hair fell off silently, and the bright green silk like a waterfall lost its restraints, hanging down her shoulders, and the hair scattered from her temples covered most of her delicate face, just like a dark cloud covering the moon, I don't know how many people couldn't help but exclaim in disappointment, from the moment Qiu Suhua stopped attacking and exerted her charm with all her might, her beautiful figure as bright as a spring flower and autumn moon has been deeply imprinted in everyone's hearts.
