Thinking about it carefully, Yu Dao sighed for a moment in his heart, if he hadn't been a thief and fled from Jiangzhou City early, I'm afraid he would have been trapped in Jiangzhou City by now and turned into dust.

In this way, Yu Dao also has to thank Jiang Qiongju, if it weren't for Jiang Qiongju's presence, he would not have left Jiangzhou City so decisively.

After a short time, Jiang Qiongju cooked two bowls of soup and carefully and happily brought them to Yu Dao's side. Yu Dao saw her happy appearance, and he was not in a hurry to say what he had discovered.

He stretched out his hand to take the soup, sat side by side with Jiang Qiongju, and drank it slowly.

The red flames of the campfire danced, making their cheeks appear hazy and red.

"It's time to go. After drinking the soup, Yu Dao threw the porcelain bowl into the fire.

"Huh?" Jiang Qiongju had already finished drinking and was wiping the long sword, she raised her head in surprise when she heard Yu Dao's words, but then nodded, "Okay." ”

While the two were hurrying on the road, Yu Dao explained the reason to Jiang Qiongju.

......

The next day, the leaves around the campfire suddenly rustled, and two men came out of the forest and walked to the campfire.

When the Taoist with his hair scattered saw the bonfire, he squatted down directly and took a closer look. After three breaths, he stretched, stood up together, yawned and said, "It's too late, those two are running southwest." ”

The young man holding the sword next to him heard this, and his brows furrowed.

When the Taoist saw him, he stretched out his hand to rub his hair, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, those two can't run away." I can't find it, just stay by the river and kill people. ”

When the young man heard his words, his brows were still furrowed, and it took a long time before he said, "Senior brother, can you see less blood in killing people in the future?"

The Taoist was stunned when he heard this.

"The smell of blood on Senior Brother's body is too strong. The young man frowned and looked at the blood mist that swirled around the Daoist.

The Taoist was embarrassed when he heard this, and he was embarrassed to rub the young man's hair, but he had to withdraw his hand.

"Okay, in the future, the senior brother will kill people without seeing blood. ”

After the two left, at noon, the dead branch by the campfire suddenly broke again.

A pair of white embroidered shoes stretched out and stepped on a dead wood branch. A figure stood in front of the ashes and sighed softly, "It's too late. ”

After saying a word, the figure of this person suddenly disappeared in place.

......

After Yu Dao explained to Jiang Qiongju, Jiang Qiongju also became more and more anxious, lest the two fall into turmoil. Along the way, except for the most basic rest, the two of them and a donkey have been on the road.

Fortunately, because their movements were fast, they were also wary in their hearts, and they didn't meet any disciples of Taiji Palace on the road.

Finally, on the afternoon of the third day after they left Jiangzhou City, the two of them climbed over one hill after another and walked to the edge of a big river.

As soon as she saw this big river, Jiang Qiongju became happy, she pointed to the big river, and shouted: "No, look! It's the reverse river." After crossing this river, he left Jiangzhou. ”

Yu Daozheng closed his eyes slightly, and when he heard the sound, he immediately opened his eyes. When he saw the appearance of the river clearly, Yu Dao's eyes were also happy.

The counter-current river, whose water flows westward, is in the opposite direction to most rivers known in the world, so it is called the "counter-current river". This river lies between Bashu and Miaojiang, splitting mountains and gravel, and digging a boundary in the lofty mountains.

To the north of the river, there are hills, but there are also small plains, and the farther away from the river, the greater the proportion of plains.

To the south of the river, it is a land of poor mountains and bad waters, full of miasma and poisonous mist, and it is difficult for ordinary people to survive.

And the land of Miao Jiang is rampant with demons and evils, and all kinds of tribes are mixed, refining corpses, refining Gu, cannibals, and acacia...... Foxes, jackals, tigers and leopards, dogs and poisonous insects...... Everywhere, black-faced Taoists walked out of the land of Miaojiang.

The land of Miao Jiang does not belong to Jiangzhou, so it is naturally not under the jurisdiction of Taiji Palace. If Yu Dao's estimate is good, Taiji Palace will not care about the outside world for a while.

By crossing the river, the crisis is basically resolved.

Yu Dao exhaled softly, for the past day and a half, he has been using mana to support the donkey to run away with water, the donkey is tired of water, and he is even more tired!

"Uh-huh!" the donkey saw the river, and neighed anxiously as well, and ran to the river with his hooves up.

Listening to Jiang Tao's voice that gradually appeared in his ears, Yu Dao was slightly stunned in his heart: "After running for three days, it is finally coming to an end." ”

But at this moment, a line of streamer inadvertently flew from behind the two of them, and then staggered to the riverside.

Seeing this streamer, Yu Dao and Jiang Qiongju were stunned, and they didn't know whether they should continue to move forward. The streamer landed and suddenly turned into a human form, the same two people.

The two of them landed on the riverside and looked around, and immediately found Yu Dao and Jiang Qiongju. The person who looked like a Taoist in the middle laughed: "Wonderful! Wonderful! ”

The young man next to him opened his mouth and spit out a cloud of black light, and then the black light unfolded and turned into a clear short sword.

"Senior brother, are these two people?"

The Taoist nodded, "Exactly." ”

When he saw the two of them, Yu Dao's heart palpitated, and when he heard the words of the two talking, Yu Dao was almost shocked. He tugged at the reins of the donkey's water, and hurriedly shouted, "Go, go!"

"Huh!" the donkey was ignorant, and it was hurt by Yu Dao, but it didn't dare to disobey Yu Dao's words, so he immediately turned his head and ran towards the hills.

When Jiang Qiongju saw Yu Dao's movements, she immediately sorted out the situation and became equally anxious.

But the donkey only ran out of more than ten steps after getting water, and the Taoist with the swordsman boy fell directly in front of the two of them, looking at the two with a smile.

"Fellow Daoists, please stay. ”

The Taoist made a gesture and was about to ask, but the swordsman next to him was impatient and said, "Senior brother, kill and kill, no need to talk nonsense." ”

The Taoist laughed, and explained: "The lesson of the senior brother is ......" He said as he flicked his fingers, and a stream of red mist erupted from between his sleeves and quickly poured into the ground.

For a while, there seemed to be magma tumbling out of the earth, and the soaring heat rushed straight to Yu Dao and Jiang Qiongju.

"Uh-huh!" the donkey neighed, and the ground before it tumbled, turning into a boiling crimson swamp.

Seeing that the magma was about to swallow the two of them and a donkey, a delicate long sword suddenly fell from the sky and nailed directly to the ground, nailing the flowing magma to death.

"It's not too late. The faint voice rang out.

"Aang!" The magma was pinned and churned even harder, as if a dragon was rolling.

When the Taoist saw this scene, he was shocked for a moment, and before he could speak, a figure suddenly fell from the sky and stood beside Jiang Qiongju.

This person was slender, with long hair in a bun, and was dressed in a cloth robe, looking very elegant, as if he were just a woman next door.

"You, would you like to go back to the sect with me?" The woman stood still, didn't look at the Taoist and the young swordsman on the side, and asked Jiang Qiongju directly.

Jiang Qiongju and Yu Dao looked at the abruptly changed scene in front of them, and looked at each other in amazement.

Jiang Qiongju was immediately startled and blurted out: "Sister, it's you!" Yu Dao was also stunned, a little unable to believe his eyes.

The woman was wearing a simple white silk scarf on her face, and her temperament was gentle.

This person is the one Yu Dao met in the Judge Temple, and was later sent to the Star Picking Tower as a maid. At that time, Yu Dao felt that this woman was a little weird, and he didn't have much contact with her, but he didn't expect today's scene.

"Senior brother!" exclaimed the swordsman next to him.

The Taoist looked at the woman with an embarrassed face and said, "Who is the senior?"

Then the woman took a sword in addition to the Taoist, the young swordsman was seriously injured and fled, she and Yu Dao talked a few words, and then flew away with Jiang Qiongju and the donkey to get water.
