Chapter 20(4)

Chu Menglin woke up like a dream, her head seemed to be pulled by a lead, inch by inch, extremely stiff deflection, looking at him for a long time, the head of Kongtong felt that she was staring at her and sweating, Chu Menglin seemed to finally recognize him, a few dry and hoarse sneers overflowed from her throat, and said lightly: "What else do you want, is it the Afterimage Sword?" Each word had to pause slightly, like a child who had just learned to speak.

The head of Kongtong answered, full of suspicion. Chu Menglin said: "Okay, then I'll give it to you, come with me." He got up in a daze and stepped forward stiffly. The head of Kongtong flipped his five fingers, raised his palm and clasped her wrist, looking at her unnatural appearance, it was obviously impossible to escape, but this was an instinctive shot.

Chu Menglin smiled bitterly: "You don't need to guard me like this. Promise you, I will fulfill it, gentleman ...... a word" The head of Kongtong couldn't stand her jumping outward word by word, and he was terrified for no reason, and preemptively said: "The horse is difficult to chase, and the horse is difficult to chase." Are you ready to go?"

Chu Menglin was suddenly intercepted, and she didn't care, she raised her feet and went on the road by herself, muttering: "What are you anxious about, are you still afraid that the long feet of the Afterimage Sword will fly?" Chu Menglin snorted and sneered a few times. The head of Kongtong was afraid of provoking her to regret it, so he didn't dare to say much along the way, only "hey" and "hey" responded. Chu Menglin walked extremely slowly, and he didn't dare to urge, so he took the time to ask a few words: "Where are we going to find the Afterimage Sword?"

Chu Menglin replied coldly: "Qingyi River." The tone was flat and cold, and it was more appropriate to speak to oneself than to respond to his question. Kongtong said in his heart: "Qingyi River...... Qingyi River?"

During Chu Menglin's hurry, it was as if someone had taken her soul away, she didn't sleep every day, didn't drink or eat, although her feet were slow, she saved a lot of time, and after a few days, she also walked out of a large section. The head of Kongtong was afraid of losing it, so he could only accompany the water and rice not to enter, which was enough to bear at first, but the more he walked, the more fatigue intensified, and his physical strength became worse day by day.

On this day, when I came to the barren mountain, I saw a crystal clear stream between the cols, Chu Menglin's consistent love for beauty germinated again, and the head of Kongtong rested here. The head of Kongtong agreed, walked to the trunk alone and sat down, closed his eyes for a while, couldn't bear to take out the dry food and chew it, and his eyes did not forget to keep a close eye on Chu Menglin, so as not to leave his sight.

Chu Menglin leaned down in front of the stream, and saw the sloppy appearance of a mud on the east and a filth on the west of the face that she had always been most proud of, and suddenly felt unbearable. He picked up the stream water and washed his face, took out his handkerchief and wiped the mud off his face. She wiped it very carefully, inch by inch, as if she wanted to clean every piece of skin thoroughly. Then untie the long hair, use your fingers as a comb, insert it into the strands, and carefully comb from top to bottom.

Since the first reunion with Tang Yuanyuan, he broke his hair in anger, and a long time has passed unconsciously. Thinking that my hair could grow again, but the scars in my heart could never heal, I was very sad to think about it, and I was silently sad for a while, and I tied up my hair again. After roughly dressing up, he looked at the haggard but beautiful face in the water, and pursed his lips with a wry smile.

After a long time, she found that in addition to herself, the reflection suddenly had another human form, which was close to the wooden position behind her. Before, he was still unconscious, and he didn't hear a single sound of footsteps, if he wasn't too focused, that person's martial arts were extremely strong. In order not to alarm him for the time being, he quietly poked his head out, trying to identify him in the water. The man saw through her thoughts, and struck out a palm, and the powerful palm force shook the water surface and rippled, mudding the person's image.

Chu Menglin was bold and just wanted to turn back, but the man grabbed her hair violently and pulled it back. Chu Menglin saw the green water and blue sky flash, and then a copper mask suddenly enlarged in front of his eyes, shooting out a deep cold light from the hole in the eye socket. This is the person he has been most feared since he was a child, Chu Menglin was shocked, opened her mouth and wanted to scream, but the sect leader's arm shook and dragged her up from the ground, and shouted: "Follow me!" Pulling her hair, she dragged forward without saying anything.

Chu Menglin couldn't help but feel unbearable pain at the roots, so she had to trot and try to keep up with him. Knowing that this time it was more than lucky, he still wanted to try to exploit some loopholes, and said, "Dad...... Daddy, you old man, ......" The sect leader didn't eat her at all, and said coldly: "Shut up." There's no need to waste your efforts and play tricks with this seat. The middle finger was outstretched, and Chu Menglin felt a numbness in the back of her heart, and a spasm extended to her heart, and she couldn't say a word in pain.

A figure from behind rushed forward, but it was the head of Kongtong who saw Chu Menglin being taken away in front of him, thinking that the Remnant Sword had not yet arrived, how could he let her go, so he immediately jumped out, reached out and grabbed Chu Menglin's arm, and pulled back. The sect leader has always been arrogant, except for Jiang Yanchen, no one has ever dared to rob people under his hands, this time he was surprised, he failed to take precautions in time, and he accidentally caused the prey to be taken by the enemy, he couldn't swallow this breath, aimed at the incoming situation, and waved his palm without looking.

Seeing that his palm move was steady and heavy, the head of Kongtong didn't dare to take it hard, so he pulled Chu Menglin and used her as a living shield in front of him. Chu Menglin's body was paralyzed like cotton, unable to move, and her heart immediately received a solid blow, she had no internal strength to protect her body at this time, and her injuries were even more serious, and a large mouthful of blood spurted out when she landed, and the clothes in front of the head of Kongtong were stained red. The sect leader did not have pity, plundered forward, and snatched again.

The head of Kongtong threw Chu Menglin behind his back, arched his hand, and said: "Friends, everyone is eating in the rivers and lakes, so you should abide by the rules of the rivers and lakes." This little girl was found first by the poor road, Your Excellency should always pay attention to the first come, first come, right?" The sect leader said angrily: "Dare to tell this seat that I will come first and then come? The head of Kongtong sneered and said, "What's the matter? This girl is only a teenager, could it be that as soon as she was born, you saw it? Are you a midwife, or her wet nurse?"

Chu Menglin knew that her father and the head of Kongtong were ambitious, and it was nothing more than for the afterimage sword, so she didn't poison herself for the time being, but no matter who she fell into after that, she would not have good fruits to eat. Now only by taking advantage of their greed and provoking it to make the two fight each other can they hope to get out. wiped the blood from his mouth, hid behind the head of Kongtong, looked like a mourner, and shouted: "Daddy! Daddy, save me! This old Taoist priest caught me and forced me to take him to get the Afterimage Sword." My daughter was coerced by power and had to come, and finally waited until you came......"

The sect leader shouted angrily: "Damn rebel girl, you dare to lie in front of this seat! Where the hell did you get the Afterimage Sword?"

The head of Kongtong was stunned for a moment at first, and said in his heart: "When did this demon girl have a daddy?" and then thought about it for a while, isn't her daddy the "old devil" in Lu Qian's mouth? Today, she actually met the number one murderer in the underworld alone, and her legs immediately became a little weak, and she just wanted to laugh and beg for mercy.

After another thought, with Chu Menglin's articulate words, this person was forced to have only one way to escape, obviously touting it would never make him soft-hearted, but would accelerate his death. Thinking of the losses he had suffered at the hands of the Shadow Sacrifice Sect, he was furious, even if he died, he would have to say that he was happy, and maybe he would be able to fight crookedly and provoke civil strife in the sect. First pretended to be reverent, and said, "It turns out that you are the sect leader of the Shadow Sacrifice Sect, but you are really famous!"

The sect leader snorted, he was tired of hearing the flattery in the mouths of the disciples, thinking that the person in front of him was a soft bone, and he was even more contemptuous.

The head of Kongtong put on a disdainful look again, and sneered: "Hmph, you are a good apprentice who came out! Young Master Jiang Yanchen, in the inner courtyard of the deep palace, he has nothing to do with Concubine Yun's maids, and they do it, but I'm afraid of saying dirty mouths." The remnant star killed the hall master, did not measure his strength, entered the palace alone to assassinate, made a big feast, and was finally captured, he could not bear the torture and coercion, and now he has bowed to the Manchu Qing Dynasty. These two must be your most proud protégés, aren't they? Even they are so uncompetitive, and the others are even more. "In fact, whether the dark night died or not, the head of Kongtong didn't know, but he was excited by words.

Chu Menglin screamed: "You are talking nonsense! Brother will not betray me, impossible!" The head of Kongtong sneered: "What's impossible? If you die in the dark, you have to hang yourself on this tree?

The sect leader had already received a secret report, and he knew everything about the banquet turmoil, and he was ashamed of it at first, but now he was annoyed, and he was exposed by outsiders in front of him, and said angrily: "Kill this idiot!" Thinking about it, he was even more angry, raised his arm and slapped Chu Menglin, and said angrily: "It's all because of your scourge, and I am tired of losing a general!"

Chu Menglin wept sadly. The head of Kongtong smiled at him and vented, and lost no time in saying: "Since neither of them can afford to take the lead, it's better to give up earlier, in the end, it's better for the only daughter to be closer to you, right?" You sit on the throne of the emperor, and the poor road is only willing to assist from the side, and it is enough for the strategists and the like. ”

The sect leader couldn't help but sneer at him, making fun of his disciples who had no way, and he couldn't bear the anger for a long time, and when he heard him speak wildly, he couldn't help but say angrily: "Thousands of miles of splendid rivers and mountains, originally enjoyed by this seat, you, a dog minion, what qualifications do you have to share the world equally with this forum?"

The head of Kongtong sneered: "Don't be too arrogant. The situation is chaotic, the heroes are competing for the deer, and the big position is the capable. It is nonsense to say that you are born to have a country. Except for the descendants of the royal family, who is worthy of saying such things?" The sect leader said angrily: "What nonsense! Now the people sitting on the throne are all thieves who have borrowed the blessings of their ancestors, and this seat is the real and reasonable successor!"

Chu Menglin heard her father say such words for the second time, and remembered the question that Duoduo had been puzzled about, and said with tears in her eyes: "Daddy, my daughter knows that she is deeply sinful, and she doesn't ask for your forgiveness, but only wants to be a clear ghost after death." Tell me, what are your grievances with the royal family, why do you want to chew through the blood every time you mention them, and ...... What is my true background? How can I have 'royal blood'?"

A cold light flashed in the sect leader's eyes, and he rushed forward, pinched Chu Menglin's wrists together, and shouted: "The blood of the royal family? How do you know! Where did you hear it?" Chu Menglin's wrist clicked, and there was a rupturing pain, and he turned his eyes to look at the head of Kongtong. only regarded him as the only object of help, and had no other intentions, but the sect leader misunderstood her eyes, and also looked at the head of Kongtong, and said coldly: "You told her?"

The head of Kongtong didn't understand the mystery of the "blood of the royal family" at all, but he was willing to pretend to be unfathomable, and said with a smile: "Naturally, Poor Dao told her." As for who your Excellency is, I also said that you will not have to wear an ugly mask all day long to hide your integrity. ”

The sect leader roared, shook off Chu Menglin, moved and grabbed the collar of the head of Kongtong, and shouted, "You say you know the true identity of this seat?

The head of Kongtong could only see a pair of tricks exposed in the hole in his mask, flashing with a fury that was about to explode at any time. Under this monstrous power, he still didn't know how to advance or retreat, and he had to slap his swollen face and become fat, and said with a smile: "Yes, there are quite a few." Poor Dao finally knows a big secret, of course, he talks about it when he meets people. It has long been spread in Qingtian Village, and it is estimated that even the handymen who sweep the floor know about it. We also went to the mysterious royal tomb at the bottom of the Zhaozhong Ancestral Hall, a good piece of blessed land! Lu Zhai said that he wanted to build a base camp in the ancient tomb. Hehe, the palace can also get news sooner or later. ”
