Qingping is not particularly fond of Tao Xun, always feel too desolate and pathetic, she has a hearty temperament, she prefers the clear and sonorous flute, among all kinds of silk and bamboo, she is the most proficient in the bamboo flute, as soon as the flute sound in the distance enters the ear, I have heard that the person is really the holy hand in the flute, regardless of skill or artistic conception, it can already be compared with himself. Under the slight movement in his heart, he did not stop playing Tao Xun, but more and more skills, blowing this song back to his heart, at the end of the song, Qingping looked back with a smile, and said in his heart, when I taught Zijing to play Xun, I found a flute to play with him, which is not bad.

When Qingping played with the unknown piper, Yang Ning followed the sound of the flute, and saw that across the river for several miles, there was a huge boat galloping, and the sound of the flute came from the bow of the giant boat, but the distance was far, even with Yang Ning's eyesight, he couldn't see the person's face clearly, but under the sun, the blue figure standing on the bow of the boat looked more and more like a free and easy dust. Although Yang Ning doesn't know much about the rhythm, he can also hear the flute and Tao Xun's ensemble, like a natural sound, like water and milk. He couldn't help but feel a trace of inexplicable unhappiness in his heart, especially when he saw the look flying between Qingping's eyebrows when he looked back, he felt more and more uneasy.

Not long after, the giant boat had already caught up, Yang Ning and Qingping turned their heads to look, only to see that the giant boat was not like an ordinary river boat, the size was larger, the shape was slightly different, all the wood was even better, faintly shining in the sun, and the flag hanging on the bow was a big "Yu" character. When the ship passed over Yue's cargo ship, Yang Ning and Qingping both saw the person who played the flute, but it was a young man in blue, although his face was slightly dark, but his appearance was handsome, and his demeanor was extraordinary, which made people respect him at first sight. Looking at each other, the blue-clothed young man's gaze swept over the two of them, a flash of surprise flashed in his eyes, and then he gestured from afar. Qingping also smiled and returned the salute, although the man had never seen it, but thinking of the sound of the man's flute, he was as free as a blue white hoof, but he also felt that this person was not bad. Yang Ning saw that the man's burning gaze seemed to be only focused on Qingping, and his heart became more and more depressed.

Although he doesn't know much about love words, he also knows that Qingping is not only beautiful, but also erudite, which is the beautiful flower that many men admire in their hearts, but he himself has nothing to do except martial arts, how can he accompany a beautiful woman. Since he met Yue Zhongqing, he has been uneasy, just because Qingping and Yue Zhongqing talked about something, he probably didn't know, which made him very discouraged, but a young man in blue who met strangely recently could have a sense of pity for Qingping with only a flute, Yang Ning thought that Qingping would get tired of his boredom and leave, so he felt unbearable, but he could only endure it.

Qingping didn't know Yang Ning's thoughts, and after seeing the giant boat go away, she looked back and smiled: "Do you know who is on that ship?"

Yang Ning was shocked in his heart, but he calmed down and said coldly: "I don't know." The expression was indifferent, and a trace of emotion was never leaked, in fact, Qingping could notice the change in his mood on weekdays, because Yang Ning always refused to defend Qingping, and at this moment he deliberately hid his worries and losses, even Qingping could not detect his emotional changes.

Qingping said a little excitedly: "That's the people of the Yu family in Southern Fujian, their family is the best at shipbuilding, I heard that they can cross the ocean and carry thousands of people." Although the people of this family have not been involved in the disputes of the world, whether it is the court or the vassal king, they have a little affection for them, just because the geography of Southern Fujian is special, the five mountains are long, and the Central Plains is isolated, but it is blocked between mountains and rivers, and it is difficult to defend and attack, whether it is the King of Dian or the Duke of Yueguo, if you want to capture Southern Fujian, as long as you are willing to sacrifice, it is easy, but it takes countless efforts to keep it, so the world is not decided before. Fujian is often divided by local heroes, and this Yu family is now the strong side of southern Fujian. Of course, now it is the Dachen court that is respected, with 50,000 clan soldiers, and under the mutual checks and balances of all forces, Fujian has become the world of the Yu family. However, the reason why all the forces respect the Yu family is not because of their strength and territory, but because the Yu family has enough power to control the South China Sea. Porcelain was transported to Nanyang in exchange for jewelry, spices and even grain, these years the Central Plains was either war or drought, every year the Yu family was able to transport millions of stone of grain from Nanyang to sell to each family, to make up for the gap in military food, and Nan Fujian also has the benefit of fishing salt, only with a steady stream of sea salt, has made many people dare not easily offend, not to mention that they also sell all kinds of merchant ships, that is, the warships of the Jiangnan Navy, more than half of them are bought from the Yu family. ”

Yang Ning silently remembered what Qingping said in his heart, but some doubts arose in his heart, and asked: "I remember that you said that the Yihui mainly buys sea ships, isn't it also from the Yu family?"

Qingping nodded with a smile: " Of course yes, although there are other families besides the Yu family who can make sea ships, but only the Yu family is willing to sell sea ships to Uncle Yi who wants to be a pirate, but the price is too expensive, an ordinary sea ship originally only cost fifty or sixty thousand taels of silver, but the Yu family is taking advantage of the fire to rob, and they will not be soft, this time we took out the secret treasure, Uncle Yi also has to meet with the Yu family, pay money with one hand, and take the ship with the other, but we don't have to participate in those things, just help Uncle Yi send the secret treasure to the place. Maybe the head of the Yu family we want to see this time is on the ship just now. ”

Yang Ning's eyes leaked with suspicion, and he asked in a low voice: "Qingping, I remember that you and the Lord of the Yi Hui have told me that the reason why bandits are rampant on the river is because the Duke of Yue has the intention to coerce Kou to respect himself, but since the Yu family is a maritime merchant, they should be most afraid of pirates running rampant, how can they sell the ship to the Lord of the Yi Hui instead, don't they know the intentions of the Lord of the Yi Society? Or the Yu family also has the intention of coercing the Lord of the Yi Society." ”

Qingping's eyes flashed with surprise, and said: "Zijing really knows a lot, frankly speaking, most of the pirates in the East China Sea and the South China Sea have something to do with the Yu family, even if they are pirates, they can't do without channels for supplies and selling stolen goods, and the Yu family secretly colludes with them, which is a well-known thing, but there is no evidence." On the surface, every year, the Yu family would give these pirates a huge amount of gold and silver money and grain as road money, in exchange for the pirates' promise not to rob the Yu family's merchant ships. In fact, this so-called road money is just hard-earned money for pirates, you must know that the Yu family's routes in the entire South China Sea are protected by these pirates, and the Yu family itself has a strong naval army to protect the fleet. Unless the other merchant ships unite to fight the pirates, or simply move closer to the Yu family, most of them will be shipwrecked. ”

Yang Ning listened to it and said coldly: "Isn't the Yu family's approach more chilling than Tang Kangnian's actions, Tang Kangnian, as the Duke of Yue and an important minister, is just that, no one dares to offend him, the Yu family, a small powerful family, what dare to do this? Isn't he afraid of the destruction of the clan?"

Qingping smiled faintly and said, " If the world is unified now, the Yu family naturally does not dare to be so arrogant, now the emperor is far away, and the South China Sea is beyond the reach of the whip, so the Yu family dares to be blatant, and these pirates are actually not controlled by the Yu family, only because the channels for supply and sale of stolen goods are in the hands of the Yu family, and the strength of the Yu family itself is strong, they will bow down to obey orders, if someone can let them have more profits, it may not be impossible to replace them, so everyone knows that the Yu family and pirates have collusion, but no one is afraid of the strength of the Yu family, it is because the foundation of the Yu family is not solid。 In addition, it turned out that there were many pirates in the South China Sea, they looted indiscriminately, whether it was a merchant ship or a fishing boat, it was a precarious day, and the imperial court was beyond the reach of the whip, or the Yu family united with some powerful pirates, and it took five years to clear the South China Sea, so that the South China Sea was restored to calm, although now most of the merchant and fishing ships in the south of the Yangtze River need to pay protection money to the Yu family, although so, compared to the tragic situation of ship destruction and death in the past, it is already a world of difference. In the minds of these people, the Yu family may be a little domineering, but it is also a Buddha born in ten thousand families, and based on this alone, the Yu family is worthy of being the first maritime merchant in the world. ”

Yang Ning listened to Qingping's crisp voice in his ears, although the words were in his ears, but somehow he didn't seem to hear a word clearly, Qingping's radiant appearance made him feel more and more uneasy in his heart, although Qingping is a woman, only less than a year older than himself, but Qingping is different from himself, from the time he saw Qingping in the flames commanding Jinfan to break the two enemy forces with the Seven Evil Fish and Dragon Formation, he understood that Qingping's talent is not only in the rhythm of singing and dancing, but also in the strange woman who can go into battle to kill the enemy and establish immortal achievements, just like her mother, she is a female general who can dominate the world, but now she is in the rivers and lakes with herself, and with her background and mentorship, she originally had such an opportunity, but she gave up for herself, and she had a deep enmity with the world's top ministers and powerful vassals, thinking of this, he couldn't help but sigh in a low voice: "Sister, I am the one who has involved you." ”

An inexplicable light flashed in Qingping's eyes, although Yang Ning only said lightly, she could understand the distress and guilt in the young man's heart, and couldn't help but reach out and shake it, and said softly: " Zijing is talking nonsense again, I know these things are just because of habit, you also know that my father was a water coward when he was young, so I am always interested in such things, but I am not in the mood to make wedding clothes for people, even a dragon in the water like Uncle Yi refuses to give his life to those emperors and generals, am I a woman, still have to throw my head and spill blood for those powerful people?"

Yang Ning's heart trembled slightly, but he couldn't speak, he understood Qingping's temperament, and he would never wronged himself for any reason, so these words were what she thought in her heart, and finally let go of some guilt, he leaked a smile, and said in a low voice: "Is it good for my sister to teach me to play Tao Xun." ”

Qingping's heart was wide, raised the Tao Xun in his hand, and said with a smile: "Whether it is the qin and flute, I am very proficient, but you like this Tao Xun, this thing has a narrow vocal range, and the timbre does not dare to move, but it is simple and clumsy, but it is the most suitable for your temperament, or not, if you like it, I will teach you to play, but you are not allowed to be lazy and not learn, I also want to play a song with you, the ancient book says, 'Bai Shi Blowing Xun, Zhong's Blowing Pipe', the so-called' The sound of the flute is actually similar to that of the flute, but I am impatient to really look for a chi, so I should use the flute to make up the numbers. ”

Yang Ning nodded again and again, he actually didn't understand what Xun was, what was Chi, but when he rushed back to the boat with Xiao San, he passed by a piano shop, remembering that Qingping had said that he wanted to teach himself to play the flute and flute, and walked in on a whim, but he happened to see the piano shop guy holding a Tao Xun there to play, and after learning that it was also a musical instrument, he somehow fell in love with the simple and unpretentious Tao Xun at a glance, so he scavenged from Xiao San and bought this Tao Xun, which is also a matter of no way, who let him not carry silver at all。 However, he already had the idea of including Xiao San in his disciples, so he didn't think that this would inevitably be a bit of a forcible grab, of course, Xiao San might reject such an idea, he never thought about it.

Hearing the intermittent sound of Xun outside the cabin, and seeing the woman he liked was smiling and pointing to the young demon emperor who shook the world with a smile on his face, but he was just like an ignorant child, Yue Zhongqing's mood gradually calmed down, and the original trace of evil thoughts had disappeared. He is not a narrow-minded person, he only needs to calm down for a while, and he can understand that these two people did not intend to deceive themselves, but they just used the Yue boat to walk on a waterway, and it has nothing to do with them when he falls in love, presumably that Yin girl is also very annoyed. But frankly speaking, Yue Zhongqing did not feel lost in his heart, but he was a little complacent about his unique vision, and he heard that Dongting Shuangjue is not only talented and beautiful, but also has a noble character, if he can get his favor, it can be said that he is fortunate in three lives, if he can really get the heart of the sword, it is worth it even if he dies, but there is an obstacle between the two of them, Xu Zijing, the demon emperor, which is not a mountain that ordinary people can climb. But despite this, Yue Zhongqing is not completely desperate, he has always been extremely attentive to the current situation of the court, and naturally knows that although the Demon Emperor is famous, he is famous for killing blood, and he can't last long when he is violent, and he must be able to understand who is his good match after all.

Yue Zhongqing was thoughtful, but let Steward Zhan see it in his eyes, he couldn't help but feel inappropriate, he was very familiar with several young ladies of the Yue family, although the change in Yue Zhongqing's expression was vague, but Steward Zhan was insightful to the flame of love hidden in his gaze at Qingping, he knew that the temperament of the second son, even if there were dangers ahead, but he would still pursue his beloved woman with sincerity, but wouldn't it be self-defeating to compete for a lover with a top master like the Demon Emperor? Although he had the heart to stop it, he knew that Yue Zhongqing's temperament was becoming more and more frustrated, and there was no way to think about it again and again, only to plan to hinder it, but after the two people left, presumably the second son was nowhere to rely on even if he was tender.

The next trip is very calm, every morning, dusk, Yang Ning and Qingping are mostly in the bow of the boat to teach and learn, Yang Ning has a long breath, learning Tao Xun is twice the result with half the effort, but two or three days can already play the complete tune. And most of the time, the two don't mind continuing to talk and laugh with Yue Zhongqing's master and servant, Yue Zhongqing naturally won't refuse such an opportunity, firstly, if the two sides have more friendship, they can avoid the disaster of killing, and secondly, they also have the heart to win Qingping's heart. What surprised Yue Zhongqing even more was that in addition to the beginning of a period of time, Yang Ning was also interested in listening to the conversation between the two, and then simply dragged the little third son to the deck to fish and have fun, leaving Qingping alone to chat with Yue Zhongqing and Zhan Steward, playing chess and tasting tea.

Yue Zhongqing and Qingping are both people who read poetry and books, and they are both proficient in all kinds of talents, whether it is the south or the north, all kinds of anecdotes, they are all vivid, such as a number of family treasures, Yue Zhongqing has a heart to approach, Qingping is open-minded, and he does not think that Yue Zhongqing has offended, but Yue Zhongqing has palpitations, and he still avoids talking about secluded things. Zhan was scheming, and seeing that Qingping did not hold a grudge against the events of that day, and Yang Ning did not show dissatisfaction with Yue Zhongqing and Qingping being too close, he let it go, but he always refused to let the two of them be alone, lest Yue Zhongqing show his affection and cause Yang Ning's dissatisfaction. The two didn't know that Qingping also intended to stumble Yue Zhongqing and Zhan in charge, but it was to leave time and space for Yang Ning to teach art and skills.

On the bow of the boat, Yang Ning sat lazily on the chair, with a fishing rod beside him, although it was an extremely leisurely posture, but the condensed and indifferent expression between the eyebrows was still the same, beside him, Xiao San closed his eyes slightly, standing there still, a drowsy appearance, the boatman or passengers who passed by by were all smiling, and felt that the fact that this young man was lazy was not small.

The translucent silk thread crossed an arc in the air, and the carp hanging on the hook struggled and shook in mid-air, until it fell into the bucket and was still fluttering, alarmed by the sound of the carp beating, Xiao San opened his eyes and looked at Yang Ning's back with a strange gaze, although it was slightly thin, but the upright figure like a green pine gave people a lot of coercion not inferior to that of the royal nobles, only at such a time, he could convince himself that this usually taciturn, even a little naïve and naïve teenager turned out to be a demon emperor with bloody hands. Thinking of the experience of the past few days, Xiao San only felt that it was like a dream, and he felt unrealistic.

As if sensing Xiao San's emotional changes, Yang Ning said lightly: "You have already practiced the first layer of the mental method, do you think there is any progress?"

A trace of excitement flashed in Xiao San's eyes, and he said, "I tried it last night, and I punched that discarded wooden board through a hole, and I can jump to the cabin on the second floor without a ladder." ”

Yang Ning's eyes flashed with indifference, and he said indifferently: "Is this progress worth being so happy, with your qualifications, the second level should have been practiced now, I see that your qualifications are acceptable, and your mind is also considered resolute, why is the entry of the practice not as good as I want, you must know this?" Although the Lingxiao Heart Method is not the best internal strength method of this sect, but the entry is extremely fast, although it will inevitably encounter a bottleneck that is difficult to cross later, and the entry is restricted, but if you can persevere, you may not have the opportunity to break through the bottleneck, although the achievement is unpredictable, but at least you can become a first-class martial arts master. Why don't you concentrate on practicing hard when you have such a good opportunity?"

Xiao San was shocked in his heart, only to feel that although Yang Ning's tone was indifferent, he was faintly dissatisfied and murderous, only to feel that his knees were weak, and he was about to bow down, but his body had just moved slightly, Yang Ning had already flicked his sleeves, Xiao San only felt that his knees were stopped by invisible obstacles, and he couldn't bend his knees, and he couldn't help but be even more shocked by Yang Ning's martial arts. Yang Ning didn't look back, just said coldly: "Don't kneel, I don't like soft-boned people, if you like kneeling so much, it's better for me to waste your legs and make you never stand up again." ”

Xiao San's body trembled, he didn't dare to kneel down again, and said in a low voice: "The disciple's qualifications are blunt, and he has failed the master's teachings, and I ask the master to punish him heavily." ”

Yang Ning smiled coldly and said, "You are not unqualified, you are obviously distracted, could it be that I accepted you as a disciple, are you still unwilling?" Although the world is big, if I am willing to accept apprentices, I am afraid that the number of people who want to apprentice will not be counted, but you behave like this, aren't you very aggrieved?"

Xiao San almost laughed bitterly, remembering the experience of being accepted by Yang Ning, it was really a nightmare. Late that night after learning the identities of Yang Ning and Qingping, he was woken up by a cold wind in a drowsy state, but found that he had been taken from the bunk to the deck, and a dark shadow stood in front of him in the night, asking him to worship him as a teacher in an unquestionable tone, without any persuasion, without any choice, if he refused, he would throw himself into the river. He barely had any choice, and he became a registered disciple of the future sect master of the Martial Dao Sect. Then, every night, he would be carried to the deck to teach some mantras and moves, and during the day, he would stand behind the master while practicing his newly learned internal skills while listening to him guide him in some moves. Although the young man didn't seem to have any scruples, Xiao Sanming felt that the two of them seemed to be blocked by a transparent cover, and when many people passed by, it was obvious that he was listening to the young man talk about the essence of martial arts, but those people turned a blind eye and listened to it, obviously blocked by a magical kung fu.

It's just that the more subtle the martial arts revealed by Yang Ning, the more frightened Xiao San was in his heart, judging from some of the moves taught by this young man, he was extremely ruthless in terms of means and heart, and those martial arts were almost all cruel and vicious moves, once he made a move, he would not leave any life. A glimpse of the whole leopard, such a person, really wouldn't kill people when he left? Xiao San really didn't dare to hope in his heart. Although this person forcibly included himself in the door, but there was no trace of mercy, when teaching himself martial arts, he often suffered a lot in order to achieve speed, but he was dumbfounded, and even crying could not make a sound, looking at his gaze was also alienated and indifferent, without a trace of warmth, so that Xiao San unprovoked reminded of many rumors in the rivers and lakes, it is said that there are many evil masters in the rivers and lakes, which can make a person quickly practice a mastery, but then there are often troubles, or this person is subject to some kind of restraint, or the energy is quickly exhausted, but it has become a consumable in three years and two years, has it also encountered this situation?

In fact, if that's all, Xiao San won't be afraid, he has no father and no mother, even if he dies, no one will grieve for himself, if he can make a name for himself, such a brilliant life is as short as morning dew, but it doesn't matter, but if the Demon Emperor wants to kill his son, it is absolutely unacceptable to him.

According to Xiao San's sinister understanding of people's hearts, since the Demon Emperor and Jian Jue are incognito and take the boat east, they must be unwilling to reveal their whereabouts, but the best way to protect this secret is to kill people, although most of them will not be killed immediately, but if this person wants to kill Gongzi and Zhan Guanshi, then even if he is alive, what joy is there at all? He will never forget who saved him from a desperate situation near death, in this life, his Xiaosan's life belongs to Yue Er Gongzi.

Many times, Xiao San wanted to test Yang Ning, did he already know that he had leaked the identities of the two to Gongzi, if Yang Ning didn't know, then maybe Gongzi and Steward Zhan, as well as the rest of the Yue family's ship, and the guests on the ship could escape this catastrophe, or, Yang Ning had no intention of killing people at all? Such thoughts lingered in his heart for many days, but he never dared to ask. It's just that the longer the two get along, the more Xiao San realizes the indifference and ruthlessness of this young man. He can be silent because he hears the whimper of the river, and sometimes he can smile because the carp he catches is fat, but only to people, he is always as cold as ice, except for the sword Yin girl, occasionally there will be a wisp of tenderness in his eyes, even if he is forcibly included in this place, he is always indifferent like frost, when he forced himself to practice martial arts, he let himself struggle on the verge of death several times, but in the haze, he did not notice that this young man had a trace of guilt and heartache, but he didn't know what means he used, and when he woke up, he didn't have that kind of pain at all。 Will such a person change his mind for the sake of his own intercession? Xiao San was really not sure, lest his own intercession would make him decisively attack and kill the people in this boat, so Xiao San was silent in the end. With such a dead knot hanging in his heart, how can he practice wholeheartedly? What's more, in the past few days, the prince has not avoided suspicion, and often chats and laughs with Miss Qingping, this Demon Emperor prince seems to be a little impatient, and his eyes often flash with unpredictability, and even leak out unconcealable killing intent, which makes Xiao San even more frightened.

There was an impatient cold snort in his ears, Xiao San woke up from his contemplation, and finally made up his mind that instead of going up and down like this in his heart, it was better to ask Yang Ning's mind, otherwise it would be like waiting for prey to go to the slaughterhouse, and he would never be able to settle down. Thinking of this, Xiao San asked firmly, "May I ask Master, what are you going to do with us when you leave?"

Yang Ning's eyebrows furrowed slightly, a little inexplicable, didn't he understand his mind enough, he included Xiao San under his door and taught martial arts in person, since he had done this, would he still kill people for no reason? Although he hated that Yue Zhongqing very much, he also admitted that this person was talented, otherwise how could he have a pleasant conversation with Qingping, but as long as he didn't have the ability to snatch Qingping, then he wouldn't kill a promising young man casually, and he didn't even want to investigate the identities that those people already knew, why did Xiao San ask himself such a question? ”

Xiao San clenched his fists and said word by word: "It is Xiao San who found out the identity of the master, my son-in-law doesn't know, if the master wants to hurt the son, kill the junior first." ”

Yang Ning was slightly stunned, only then did he understand that Xiao San had misunderstood what he meant, but he was the most rebellious, although he liked Xiao San's perseverance and unyielding, but he didn't want to see him die or live for others, so he dropped the fishing rod casually, stood up and walked to the side of the boat, and said indifferently: "You are already my disciple, and it has nothing to do with the past relatives, even if I want you to kill your son-in-law with your own hands, you can only obey orders, otherwise what will I do if I accept you as an apprentice, do I want to add a rival to myself?" Since you are so troublesome, it is up to you to do it when you leave the ship, as long as you kill Yue Zhongqing, even if you are loyal enough, if you can't bear to do it, just cut it off yourself, my disciples, don't be soft-hearted and bother. ”

Xiao San only felt like five thunderbolts, his body couldn't help shaking, he couldn't imagine that he made up his mind to intercede, but in exchange for such an answer, not to mention letting himself kill the benefactor, it was to let himself sit back and watch the benefactor suffer, and it was something he couldn't tolerate. Clenching his teeth, his eyes gradually turned blood-red, he stared fiercely at the arrogant back in front of him, and clenched his fists.

Yang Ning didn't seem to feel his strong hatred, stood still for a moment, suddenly turned his head, looked at the hatch, Xiao San forcibly held back his hatred, and also looked back, just saw Yue Zhongqing and Qingping walking out one after the other, Qingping saw Yang Ning, a pair of bright eyes flashed with moving brilliance in an instant, walked to Yang Ning's side in a few steps, stretched out his hand to hold Yang Ning's arm, pointed to the front of the boat and said: "Look, the front is the Tianmen Mountain I told you." ”

Yue Zhongqing then followed, walked to Qingping's side and said loudly: "Tianmen interrupts the opening of the Chu River, the blue water flows east to this time, here has been to Dangtu, Tianmen Mountain and the quarrying Hengjiang River under it is the important town of Liyang County, the north and the south are fighting, if you can break these two towns, then Jiangning is just around the corner, Jiangning is the ancient capital of the Six Dynasties, formerly known as Jinling, after the establishment of the Great Chen Dynasty, the Duke of Yue changed Jinling to Jiangning, this is his surrender to the imperial court, in fact, most of our Jiangdong people still call Jiangning Jinling. ”

Qingping nodded and sighed: "Actually, what does it matter if the name is changed back and forth, I also think the name Jinling is better." The tide is full of Yecheng Zhu, and the sun is oblique to conquer the pavilion. Caizhou is new and green, and the shogunate is old and green. The rise and fall are determined by personnel, mountains and rivers and empty terrain. The backyard flowers are a song, and the grievances are unbearable. Since Jinling is the ancient capital of the Six Dynasties, there must be many places of interest and historic sites, if you have leisure this time, if you can enjoy Jinling, it is also worth the trip. After that, he looked up at Yang Ning, his eyes full of pleading.

Yang Ning remembered that Qingping said that after taking the treasure, he would help Yi Buping transport the treasure to Jiangning to complete the agreement, knowing that Qingping was asking if he was willing to accompany her to travel to Jiangning, he was not in a hurry to leave Jiangdong, let alone a place where he had to go, so he nodded without hesitation: "Since my sister wants to travel to Jiangning, I naturally have no opinion, I want to come to Jiangdong Those masters of black and white, if they are still half smart, they will not bother us again." ”

Although Yue Zhongqing already knew the identities of the two, but when he heard Yang Ning's words that clearly stated his identity, he still felt slightly shocked in his heart, and reluctantly smiled: "Do you want to go to Jinling, then it is better to go to Wanbao Zhai to see, four days later, that is, on October 15, Wanbao Zhai held a treasure collection meeting, allowing all major businessmen in the world to sell rare treasures to Wanbao Zhai, and Wanbao Zhai will provide the court to identify the treasures, and only collect some taps from them." The two of them must know that the middle of November is the beloved daughter of the King of Han, the day when the lord of Jinxiu County recruits relatives, so there are wealthy families who do not want to prepare a few rare treasures, so this time the grand event is not only unprecedented in scale, but also recognized by the Duke of Yue, no matter who it is, as long as the treasure is sold, even if it is a thief, the government will not ask, and it will not be difficult for the owner of the treasure to sell, so that many treasures that can only be hidden in the secret room will also appear. If it weren't for Yue's young court training, he wouldn't be able to participate in this kind of overly ostentatious event, but I was afraid that he would also go to see the grand occasion. ”

Qingping's expression became strange when she heard this, and she whispered in Yang Ning's ear: "No wonder Uncle Yi asked me to help him send the treasure to Jinling after he took it out. I also want to go to browse the scenery of Jinling with you by the way, it seems that this time I can't help but participate in this treasure collection conference, otherwise Uncle Yi may suffer a loss, maybe he will sell the treasures left by his father. ”

Yang Ning also felt a little crying and laughing when he heard this, since he showed his skills and was respected as the Demon Emperor, others saw him either respectfully or with bad intentions, like Yi Buping, who used himself thoroughly, but he didn't hate Yi Buping, so he just shook his head and smiled. Inadvertently, his eyes flashed, but he saw that Xiao San was still standing there in a daze, looking at his eyes full of hatred, but looking at Yue Zhongqing's eyes was very anxious, and then he remembered that he was angry and forced Xiao San to kill Yue Zhongqing. Glancing at Yue Zhongqing again, I saw that his eyes were blurred, although he forcibly forbeared, but his gaze at Qingping was as gentle as water, and it was obviously deep and difficult.

If it is someone else, it is possible to be jealous and try to take revenge, or be open-minded and not careless. Yang Ning is different, Qingping is extremely noble in his mind, only slightly inferior to the lord of Huofeng, Yue Zhongqing admires Qingping, although Qingping did not respond, Yang Ning also has a sense of jealousy in his heart, but seeing Yue Zhongqing's outstanding talent and good looks, if such a person loves Qingping, it is not a blasphemy, plus Qingping is not tempted, so he will ignore it these days. But at this moment, thinking that Xiao San was pleading hard for Yue Zhongqing, and his resentment towards himself was hard to eliminate, it aroused Yang Ning's killing intent, if it wasn't for Qingping, I was afraid that he would have already killed someone. Finally, his temperament has been somewhat restrained these days, and after a little thought, he has come up with a way to deal with Yue Zhongqing, deliberately removing all emotions, Yang Ning looked at Yue Zhongqing coldly, and said calmly: "Yue Gongzi must have known my identity now, I don't know if Yue Gongzi plans to go to the informant immediately after me and Qingping leave?"

Yue Zhongqing's heart was shocked, Yang Ning actually took the initiative to reveal his identity, so he had no possibility of pretending to be deaf and dumb, if he couldn't convince this young demon emperor, it would be the end of a river of blood, he didn't dare to hide it anymore, and bowed down and said: "Since the emperor said so, Yue Mou didn't dare to hide it, and he did know the identities of the two of them, and it was also an honor to have the opportunity to meet the two of them." If the two of them leave the boat below, unless the government comes to the door, they will definitely not leak a word. But if someone asks about the two, please forgive me for not knowing and not reporting it, otherwise Yue Guogong will blame him, not to mention the children of the four famous families in Jiangdong, and he will never dare to prevaricate and deal with it. ”

Seeing Yue Zhongqing so straightforward, Xiao San almost screamed out, his face was already distorted as if he had eaten Coptis chinensis, but Yang Ning smiled faintly, as if he had no intention of blaming, but his eyes became as cold as ice. Qingping couldn't help frowning slightly when she saw this, but she understood Yang Ning's temperament, but she didn't say anything to dissuade her, she just glanced at Yue Zhongqing with pity, and her eyes were full of sympathy.

Yang Ning stretched out his hand to hold Qingping's slender hand, shook it lightly comfortingly, and said coldly: "Brother Yue speaks like this, he is calm and fearless, I also like a straightforward person like Brother Yue, but killing people is the best way to keep secrets, if you want to be merciful under your subordinates, you must have some reasons." In this way, I will give Brother Yue a chance, if Brother Yue's answer satisfies me, neither Qingping nor I will make another move to Brother Yue. ”

Yue Zhongqing said without hesitation: "Since Emperor Zun has asked, he said bluntly that Yue Mou will do his best, hoping to be able to answer Di Zun's question, if he is not capable, please also ask Emperor Zun to see that Yue Mou has not offended, only kill Yue Mou, and do not implicate innocent." ”

Yang Ning waved his hand and said: "If you don't kill you, it is useless for others to kill, my question is very simple, a few days ago, Qingping asked you why you didn't go out, you talked about the general trend of the world, but finally quarreled with Qingping, but still didn't say why you refused to go out, I also asked you, the Son of Heaven Yang, Youji Luo Chengyu, Han King Li Zishan, Dian King Wu Heng, and Jiangdong's actual master Yue Guogong Tang Kangnian, you are more optimistic about who will dominate the world, if it is a leader, who do you want to serve? If your answer satisfies both Qingping and me, I will no longer embarrass you, otherwise the day we leave the ship will be your death. ”

Yue Zhongqing was slightly stunned when he heard this, he didn't expect Yang Ning's question to be a repeat of the same old tune, he and Qingping had a good conversation these days, but the question about the situation in the world was never mentioned again, just because he knew that Qingping valued Youji the most, if he was offended by words, I am afraid that he would not have the opportunity to talk to the woman he liked, although he knew that Qingping was not a beautiful woman he could admire and pursue, but he still did not want to anger this soft man who was soft on the outside and strong on the inside. But now Yang Ning's problem has easily forced him to a dead end, if he wants to satisfy Qingping and the Demon Emperor, most of them have to respect Youji against their will, so that they can not only save their lives, but also get the favor of beautiful women. But such a thing, Yue Zhongqing would rather die than refuse, he pondered for a long time, he raised his voice and said: "I don't want to go out of the office, just because there is no master, if you say who can dominate the world, you don't dare to say anything in the world, but in any case, you are not optimistic about Youji." ”

Hearing this, Xiao San's smart and exposed face immediately collapsed, but Qingping was shocked, only Yang Ning, whose expression was calm and cold, did not be surprised, just looked at Yue Zhongqing lightly, as if waiting for him to explain.

Before Yue Zhongqing could continue, Qingping's bright eyes flowed, and she interjected: "Yue Gongzi, we have gotten along very well these days, from all over the world, to the north and south, to talk about everything, but I know that you have palpitations, although you talk and laugh calmly, and have some heartfelt words, but you refuse to say it after all." You say that you don't want to go out, there is no Ming Lord, this Qingping does not dare to agree, what is the Ming Lord, know people and make good use of them, and have a broad mind is the Ming Lord, I have not seen others, but Luo Chengyu, the son of King Yan, can be described as the Ming Lord. As for not being optimistic about Youji, I don't believe it, or you are prejudiced against Youji because of the old things of the Huofeng County Lord, in fact, it is impossible to judge what happened back then, which is right and wrong, but in any case, the county lord is worthy of being a heroine among women, and today's Lord of Youji is even more eloquent, in this battle of the world, Youji always has a five-point chance of winning, why is Yue Gongzi so decisive, is it because he is angry with our sister and brother?"

Yue Zhongqing couldn't help laughing, he couldn't imagine that this sword peerless Qingping still had some sympathy for him, and he actually set the tone first, if he followed her tone now, he would probably be fine, but he didn't want to go against his will, especially in front of the admiring woman and a powerful rival in love, he sighed slightly, " In fact, I also hope to see the world be peaceful, the Yang family has ruled the world for only 20 years, and the world has leaked out of exhaustion, land annexation, banditry, princes, and disasters. Although Youji is located in the northern Xinjiang, but the politics are clear, the armor is sharp, and the foundation laid by the lord of Huofeng County is extremely deep, and although the prince of Yan is young, it is said that he has a dragon posture and phoenix chapter, and he has the style of a king.

It's just that in my humble opinion, although the Youji is powerful, it is like a brocade of flowers, cooking oil in a blazing fire, even if it is prominent for a while, it will not be long in the end. Once you rebel against the army, no matter what the reason, you will always commit the following offenses and be called rebellious. Over the years, although the people's livelihood has withered, but after all, the people in the world can still struggle to survive, once the war resumes, most of them are jade and stone burning, if the first chaos in the world is Youji, only afraid that the people's hearts will be shaken, even if the momentum is momentary, the court is defeated, I am afraid that other princes will also use King Qin's rebellion as an excuse to raise troops, and when the time comes, the world will be rotten, but let Hu Rong take the opportunity to invade the Central Plains, the sandpiper and the clam fight, the fisherman profits, and the Youji is the first evil. This is only based on the situation, if you think about it carefully, there are still a lot of hidden worries within Youji, King Yan and the prince are not in agreement, this matter is known to the world, once the disaster Xiao Wall occurs, I am afraid that the hard work of the Lord of Huofeng County will be in vain. But in such a situation, the prince of Yan Wang is still strong, ready to rebel, Sima Zhao's heart, passers-by know, who does not know that the day of the prince of Yan Wang's accession to the throne is the time to raise troops for revenge, such an unknown situation, only for their own selfish interests at the expense of life, even if he is wise, he is not the master of Yue's heart.

If I am a minister for His Royal Highness, I must follow the principle that the outside must first be secured, and then wait for the opportunity to move after the internal unification, and wait until the court can't bear to provoke first, or wait until the southeast is changing before taking advantage of the fire. Since ancient times, the turmoil in the world often arises from the southeast, but the emperors are often the princes who divide the northwest, precisely because the wealth of the world comes from the southeast, once the court is tired, the southeast suffers the most. Now that the Yang and Tang families are vying for power and profit in the imperial court, there are already faint cracks in each other's alliance, which everyone in Jiangnan knows well. Once the two sides tear their faces, Youji can sweep the world with a commanding momentum. In short, within ten years, if you can endure for a while, you will have the opportunity to win the world in the future, if you are like the current prince of Yan Wang, before he ascends the throne, he is already ready to move, I am afraid that the tragedy of twenty years ago will be staged again. Yue Moucai is shallow in learning, these words are just his own opinion, if there is any offense, please don't be surprised. Speaking of this, Yue Zhongqing's eyebrows were already awe-inspiring, and he obviously didn't care about how Yang Ning would deal with it.

Qingping wanted to speak and stopped, after all, she sighed lightly, she and Yue Zhongqing got together for a few days, although she was not moved, but she also felt that this person was elegant and talented, but just now Yang Ning sent a message to her, asking her to force Yue Zhongqing to answer the difficult question about Youji, for Qingping, as long as Yue Zhongqing does not offend the lord of Huofeng, it is to scold the current prince of Yanwang, Luo Chengyu, for a bloody head, it doesn't matter. But Qingping could understand Yang Ning's ambivalent feelings, although he himself didn't want to mention Youji, and even looked like he was holding a grudge when he mentioned it, but if others said bad things about Youji, Yang Ning seemed to be even more annoyed. In front of them, they had already entered the territory of Liyang County, and the two were originally scheduled to leave the ship tonight, but Yang Ning asked Yue Zhongqing such a question at this time, even Qingping, who knew him well, didn't know what kind of things Yang Ning would do once Yue Zhongqing spoke out against him.

Not only was Yang Ning not annoyed, but appreciation flashed in his eyes, but he quickly covered it up. In fact, although Yang Ning wanted to kill Yue Zhongqing, he would not do it indiscriminately and indiscriminately. Yue Zhongqing has already left an indelible impression in his heart, and if he is killed casually, it will disturb his mood and even affect his entry into the martial arts. So he made up his mind to use the threat of his life to test Yue Zhongqing's mind, if Yue Zhongqing wanted to save his life, curry favor with Yang Ning and Qingping, and even change his original opinion of Youji, then Yang Ning would not mind killing such a villain, if Yue Zhongqing chose to be good and stubborn, and did not change his opinion because of power, then Yang Ning would not kill again. As a result, Yue Zhongqing really deserved to be a sincere gentleman admired by Qingping, although he was axe-free, he did not change his mind after all, so Yang Ning not only dissipated his killing intent, but instead admired Yue Zhongqing.

Yang Ning himself is a person with a stoic heart, and he also values Yue Zhongqing's character, although he does not understand the world, but because of his identity, he knows the general trend of the world more profoundly, thinking that after the chaos in the world, if Yue Zhongqing behaves wrongly, he may be killed, but he is a little worried, and he can't help but continue to ask: "Brother Yue originally thought that there was no master in the world, so he refused to go out, if Youji really raised an army, the world was in chaos, Brother Yue still had to be alone in Jiangnan?"

Yue Zhongqing thought for a moment, and said categorically: "I don't want to be out of office now, but I don't want to help the abuse and harm the innocent. ”

Yang Ning's eyes moved slightly, and he asked as if unintentionally: "Then are you ready to serve Youji, after all, didn't you plan for Luo Chengyu, the prince of King Yan?"

Yue Zhongqing shook his head and said: "There is no clear answer to this point, but Youji is the target of everyone, it is difficult to achieve the final success, if you assist the prince of Yan, even if you can capture Luoyang, you will also attack the King of Han, the King of Dian and the entire Jiangdong, and by the time the overall situation is settled, I am afraid it will be full of devastation." In addition to Youji, other feudal towns, such as the King of Han and the King of Dian, although they have the ability to divide the territory, they have no ambition to sweep the world. If you want to choose under the next, it is the Dachen court, although the external worries and internal troubles, and so on, but the danger of the river inside, the help of Jiangdong outside, and the name of righteousness, now it is just the cowardice of the monarch, the power is just down, if you can inspire innovation, it may not be impossible to reorganize the rivers and mountains, and get twice the result with half the effort, you can alleviate the suffering of the people in the world of war. ”

Yang Ning listened to Yue Zhongqing's words, only felt that his heart was like numbness, he was originally thinking about Youji, only because of the battle of Chibi, he gradually despaired of Youji, and even did not want to set foot on Youji again, but no matter what, he could not forget his mother's homeland, and in his mind, if the world was in chaos, it must be Luo Chengyu who won in the end, otherwise his mother's years of sacrifice would not be in vain. Although he is a cold bystander these days, he also feels that Yue Zhongqing is a talented person, and after testing Yue Zhongqing's mind, he will have the intention of recommending him to Luo Chengyu. But at this moment, after listening to Yue Zhongqing's words, he hesitated again, Yue Zhongqing's rejection of Youji was too obvious. Thinking that Yue Zhongqing might become a member of the Yang clan in the future, and then go against Luo Chengyu, Yang Ning unconsciously gave birth to a chilling killing intent again, and looked at Yue Zhongqing's gaze like a sharp blade.

When Yue Zhongqing met Yang Ning's gaze, he only felt a huge shock in his heart, and couldn't help but take a few steps back, still feeling frightened, Xiao San saw this and hurriedly moved his body, blocking in front of Yue Zhongqing, looking at Yang Ning's eyes full of pleading.

Yang Ning touched Xiao San's gaze, and suddenly remembered the scene where the young man in the abandoned garden was desperate to drag himself to escape, and couldn't help but feel soft in his heart, and said secretly, That's it, Youji has long had no room for me to stand, and my mother no longer regards me as a son, whether they win or lose, what does it have to do with me, who is Yue Zhongqing willing to take refuge in, I don't have to worry about it, it is rare that this person is hard-boned, and it is not in vain that I and Qingping have a relationship with him, thinking of this, the killing intent gradually faded. Glancing at Xiao San, who was sweating profusely, Yang Ning remembered the original order given to Xiao San, couldn't help but smile slightly, and said: "Xiao San, tonight, I am leaving, if you take Yue Zhongqing's head to the deck at that time, I will take you out of here and teach you all my martial arts, so that you can become a generation of grandmasters, and no one can bully you." If you refuse to do so, then you too will go to the deck and kill yourself in front of me, and I may also consider sparing the others on this ship, where to go, and you must think carefully not to live up to this God-given opportunity. Anyway, Yang Ning didn't look at Xiao San's face that turned black in an instant, turned around and walked to the hatch, Qingping frowned slightly, and followed Yang Ning in, she wanted to interrogate Yang Ning well, to find out what the hell Yang Ning was planning.

Walking into the cabin, Qingping hurriedly put out the questions in her heart one by one, Yang Ning naturally wouldn't hide it from him, and told the matter of forcing Xiao San to kill Yue Zhongqing. Qingping's heart sank when she heard this, and she complained to Yang Ning: "If you regret it, it's better to abolish his martial arts, what is it to force him like this, if he really kills Yue Zhongqing, do you still want to take in a disciple who killed the master? Besides, haven't you already let Yue Zhongqing go?"

Yang Ning said indifferently: "If he kills Yue Zhongqing, it will just fulfill my wish, but I naturally will not take in a disciple who kills the master, but if he just wants to ask me for forgiveness with the love of these few days, I will not let him go, but don't worry, I will only abolish his martial arts at most." The Martial Arts Sect does not have disloyal and unfilial disciples, but it also does not have heirs who are unruly in the past. ”

Qingping sighed lightly, she naturally Yang Ning's temperament, once it comes to the master and martial arts, this person's reactions and decisions will always be unexpected, but it also gives birth to curiosity, in her opinion, in addition to killing Yue Zhongqing and committing suicide, Xiao San has no third way to choose, but she doesn't know what kind of choice Yang Ning wants Xiao San to make.

Jin Wuxi sinks, the moon rises in the east, after nightfall, Yue's cargo ship has docked on the south bank of the river, the reeds on the shore have long been dried up and withered, the snow-white moonlight is reflected on the reeds in the sky, outlining a bleak scene, Yang Ning stands on the rocks on the shore with his hands, overlooking the river, his expression is as cold as frost, Qingping stands beside him, his eyes are doted with a little helplessness, both of them have already removed their disguises, leaking their original appearance, one is beautiful, the other is delicate and upright, under the moonlight, if Yang Ning's body does not have the murderous aura, it is like a fairy couple。

In the middle of the moon, midnight is approaching, a slender figure slowly walked out of the cargo ship, saw the two people leaning on the rock, the figure paused slightly, and jumped to the river bank, the cargo ship is a few zhang away from the river bank, this person's light skills are not outstanding, this jump is not more than three zhang away, but he has already seen the rocks that extend to the river on the shore, lightly on it, jumped to the shore with strength, and then used his hands and feet together, climbed to the rock.

Yang Ning's gaze swept over Xiao San's pale face, and then glanced at his blood-soaked clothes, leaking a cold smile, and sighed: "You are still smart, you know that I will not let go of your master and servant because of your intercession, what about Yue Zhongqing's head?" Take out his head, you are my descendant disciple, I am not like Shizun, I am too cautious in accepting apprentices, as long as you agree with my heart, you can worship the wall of the martial arts sect." ”

Xiao San smiled reluctantly and said in a low voice: "After the disciple stabbed the son, he didn't dare to alarm the Zhan steward, so he didn't cut off the son's head, and asked the master to take action personally, after killing the Zhan steward, you can see the body of the son, the disciple has to be the master to collect the door wall, and he should do his best to be loyal to the master, and never dare to disobey the master's order." ”

Yang Ning's eyes were as calm as ice, staring at Xiao San for a moment before he said lightly: "It's okay." With that, he walked towards the riverbank, Xiao San looked up at Yang Ning, his eyes were as sharp as an eagle falcon, he stood up and followed behind Yang Ning. A smile flashed in Qingping's eyes, but she didn't follow, just stood there and waited.

Yang Ning followed Xiao San to the river bank, but stopped, signaling Xiao San to get on the boat first, Xiao San hesitated, then struggled to jump towards the heart of the river, his figure still fell in mid-air, but he then waved his hand, shook out a rope from his sleeve, entangled in the side of the boat, and jumped to the boat with his strength, he fell on the side of the boat in a thrilling way, and was about to turn back to greet Yang Ning, but found that Yang Ning was stuck behind him like a wisp of green smoke, so frightened that he almost fell down the river.

Seeing this, Yang Ning's eyebrows raised slightly, a smile flashed in his eyes, he stretched out his hand to lift Xiao San onto the boat, stretched out his hand and pointed to the dark hatch, signaling him to go first. Xiao San lowered his head and walked straight to the cabin, and Yang Ning slowly followed him.

Xiao San's figure disappeared into the darkness for a moment, and suddenly a short low cry came from the cabin, as if it had been choked in his throat. Yang Ning's expression moved slightly, his body flashed, and he rushed into the cabin, at the moment when his body moved, a cold light flashed in the darkness, Yang Ning noticed that there was a strong wind passing behind his head and front chest at the same time, and the palm of the person attacking the back of his head was like thunder, it was clearly an eagle claw skill, ten fingers were enough to break the golden stone, and the sword that stabbed to the chest was silent, mysterious and vicious, it was a sword style that Yang Ning taught Xiao San the day before yesterday. The combination of these two people seems to have been practiced thousands of times, and they are extremely familiar. But Yang Ning just flicked his hand, and the person who attacked the back of his head had already been shaken back, and the sharp sword that was intended to penetrate his heart was also caught between two fingers. At this moment, several wisps of strong wind shot from the depths of the bilge to Yang Ning's body, but it was a round of arrow rain, the timing of the cooperation was very ingenious, if Yang Ning's martial arts were weaker, such a close distance, six sharp arrows that could pierce through the golden stone were enough to take anyone's life. With a low roar, a round of cyan sword light flashed in the dark cabin, and there was a sound of cutting gold and breaking jade in his ears, and the six sounds were combined into one, and it was almost impossible to distinguish the front and back. Then the sword light disappeared in Yang Ning's sleeve, and everyone stopped moving, only to hear the sound of heavier and heavier breathing in the cabin.

Yang Ning smiled faintly in the dark, got out and retreated, the person behind him still wanted to stop him, but he only felt that the wind around him was moving lightly, and somehow Yang Ning had already left the cabin, and then an indifferent and cold voice came from outside the cabin: "People inside, come out." ”

The three people in the cabin were silent for a long time, and then they stepped out, and it was Zhan Steward who came out first, he was dressed in a strong suit, with a heavy murderous aura between his eyebrows, and it was Xiao San who walked out casually, and it was no different from before Fang Cai entered, but his expression was miserable, and after a while, it was Yue Zhongqing who came out, he was holding a profit and loss repeater in his hand, and the arrows of six crossbow arrows leaked from it, obviously he shot a round of crossbow arrows with a repeater.

Yang Ning's eyes swept over the three of them, and said lightly: "Little San, you are not small, you dare to collude with the two of them to assassinate me, and use me to pass on your martial arts, so far, what else do you have to say." If someone else wants to harm me, but only one death, since you have committed the following crimes, I will cut you with a thousand knives before I am willing. ”

Xiao San was already disheartened at this time, he already knew that Yang Ning's martial arts were peerless, and he only had the hope of just in case, so he designed to kill him, since he missed in the cabin, he knew that there was no hope, and when he heard Yang Ning's question, he licked his chapped lips, dropped the sword in his hand, stepped forward two steps, fell to his knees with a plop, and said hatefully:" If you want to add to the crime, there are no words, martial arts is not what I want to learn, you forced me to murder the second son, I would rather die than refuse, you just like to play with other people's lives, if you want to kill, kill it, but since you let go of my son-in-law during the day, please don't embarrass them, even if the rabbit is forced to bite people, let alone people?"

Yang Ning smiled slightly when he heard this, and his delicate face showed a smile like a golden boy, and a pair of phoenix eyes were even more dazzling and dazzling. stepped forward and stretched out his hand to pick up Xiao San, and said with a loud smile: "Okay, good, this is the disciple of my martial arts sect, although the disciples of this sect also pay attention to respect and inferiority, but there is a more important rule, that is, 'only my own heart', I forced you to kill the master is just a test, it doesn't matter if you kill or not, only by fighting back and living up to your heart, is the martial arts sect disciple should have the backbone, today is here, the sky and the moon are proof, the martial arts sect disciple Zijing accepts you as the official heir." ”

Xiao San was stunned when he heard it, although he came from a humble background and was a servant, but after all, he grew up in a family, and he knew very well about the dignity of his teacher, loyalty, filial piety, and righteousness, and he never thought that he would take the risk of killing his teacher, not only did he not offend, but he was officially included, and this kind of honor made him unable to react for a while, until Yang Ning's cold laughter came into his ears, and he really sobered up.

Yang Ning looked at Xiao San carefully for a moment, and felt more and more that this young man's temperament and demeanor were extraordinary, although he had been humble for a long time and had been suppressed, but tonight he was all stimulated, and his eyebrows were full of resolute and strong aura, and the more he looked at it, the more proud he became, and said happily: "Since you are my disciple, you can no longer serve as Xia Chen, you have a name, Xiao San is just a milk name, and you can't use it anymore." ”

Xiao San looked in a trance, he didn't know how to answer for a while, Yue Zhongqing, who was wearing black clothes and holding a crossbow arrow, had already understood the situation in front of him, and stepped forward and said coldly: "Xiao San was adopted by my Yue family since he was a child, and he has no parents and no surname, if Xiao San is willing, he will be surnamed Yue." ”

Yang Ning glanced at Yue Zhongqing, knowing that this person was annoyed that he was using him to persecute Xiao San, so he didn't change color because of his rudeness, since Xiao San didn't kill him, then this person's life was saved, even if Yue Zhongqing was more unreasonable at the moment, Yang Ning would not not give face to the newly baked big disciple at this time, so he thought about it for a while and said lightly: " The better the surname, you are very righteous and resolute, and you will be more unyielding from now on, but I have wandered the world, and there is no way to leave you by your side to teach martial arts, have you memorized everything I have taught you these days?"

Xiao San had come to his senses at this time, although he still had the humiliation of being forced to apprentice, but he was not a stubborn antique after all, he naturally knew that this was the best ending, and hurriedly bowed down again and said: "Thank you Master for giving me the name, I have memorized everything that Master taught, and I will practice hard in the future." ”

Yang Ning nodded, took out a booklet and handed it to Xiao Sandao: "Your foundation has been completed in the past few days, and then you just need to strengthen the foundation, and you can practice the martial arts in two years, and you don't want to teach it to others. Five years later, if I return to the Central Plains, I will come to see you, and before I leave the school, you are not allowed to say that you are a disciple of the Martial Arts Sect, if the news leaks out, don't blame me for punishing you heavily. When he said these words, Yang Ning's eyes were staring at Yue Zhongqing and Zhan in charge.

Yue Zhongqing said with interest: "Emperor Zun rest assured, from now on, Yue will treat Xiao San as a brother and brother, and will never reveal his identity. ”

Yang Ning could hear his sincerity, nodded slightly, and sighed: "You are a good and stubborn person, and it will inevitably be in danger in the future, I don't like your temper, but I also admire your character, I don't bend to follow you, and I can also protect you, but you remember, don't force you to serve you, if you kill you because of you in the future, I will never let you go." ”

Yue Zhongqing knew what Yang Ning meant, after today's controversy, even if he once felt that his future was confused, he also knew the path he would choose in the future, such a troubled world, if he didn't really get caught up in the world's strife for his ideals, then it would really be nine deaths, Yang Ning's warning was a good intention, and Yue Zhongqing only had the life of the head of the jaw.

Seeing that everything had been arranged, Yang Ning smiled faintly, swept up, like light smoke and flying flotsam, and in an instant it had reached the rocks on the riverbank, Qingping flew up, the two of them met in mid-air, Yang Ning did not fall, the figure suddenly turned, the two cyan figures were like flying immortals, and the wings disappeared into the night, when the moonlight was like snow, the two of them were delicate in their bodies, Yue Zhongqing saw the true face of the person he had admired for a long time for the first time, only to feel that it was as bright as the cold moon, as clean as ice and snow, and his heart was pounding, but strong regret also swelled up, somehow, he could predict it, may never see this pair of high-status teenagers and girls again in this life. An encounter in front of me is just a slush claw, and there is no trace of Ping.
