Chapter 979: Qingming Ancient Temple

Lao Jiu watched Su Jia return, and said happily and excitedly: "Miss Su, you are really ...... It's really okay, I heard that you and General Xiao were missing a few days ago, and everyone is still worried-"

"I'm scared of you, the ninth senior-Ah Tian and I are fine, you can rest assured......" Su Jia smiled with relief after the war, revealing the grace of a peerless beauty under her red face. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 info

"By the way, since you and General Xiao have been together, what about General Xiao, why didn't you see him?" Lao Jiu couldn't help but ask about Xiao Tian's whereabouts.

"Ah, Ah Tian, he has other tasks, all of them haven't come back......" Su Jia said with a calm expression, and at the same time there was a hint of worry in his heart.

"Other tasks?" Lao Jiu continued to ask.

"Like me, it's the task that Sister Jing arranged before......" Su Jia's eyes were immediately firm, and she said intently, "But at the same time, it is also a difficult task that Ah Tian must face personally, although this level is very dangerous......

"Dangerous? General Xiao will be fine, right?" Lao Jiu continued to ask, thinking that countless generals had died along the way, and now Lao Jiu cherished and cared very much about the lives of every pioneer soldier.

"This mission is probably the most dangerous ...... among all of us," Su Jia said in a worried but firm tone, "but I believe that Ah Tian can do it!"

Looking at Su Jia's resolute eyes, Lao Jiu thought of the hardships and tribulations that everyone had experienced along the way - from witnessing the transformation of the descendants of the Tang family in Wangjia Village to the pride of the righteous people in the rivers and lakes who generously went to the frontier, Tang Zhan, Lu Jing and a group of young people, in Lao Jiu's eyes, were like their own children, cherished and grew up......

"Dingcheng is taken, the old man thinks that there should be no difficulty in the crusade of Mastison City...... "Lao Jiu relieved himself, and then said to Su Jia, "Miss Su, let's go back and make peace with General Lu Ling, and wait for Miss Lu or General Lu Ling's other instructions......"

"No need, my task has not been completed yet - in the name of the general, I came to support the crusade, this is only the first task that Sister Jing gave me, what awaits me behind me is the real dangerous test......" Su Jia's eyes must be certain, as if thinking of the really difficult part of the plan, he still has dangerous criminals, and he can't help but faintly say.

"Miss Su, what other tasks do you have?" Lao Jiu couldn't help but ask curiously.

Su Jia calmed down, and then made up his mind as he swore and said: "Kill the main general of Tongguan - Chen Shijin!"

Lao Jiu listened, his eyes were stunned, although he had not experienced the distant events of the rivers and lakes, but he had heard from Tang Zhan Lu Jing that Chen Shijin's life experience, as well as the grievances between Su Jia and his and the wind chasing faction......

"Dark ...... Assassination?" Thinking of the danger of this mission, Lao Jiu asked with a disturbance in his heart.

"Maybe...... In short, as long as you can kill Chen Shijin, you will do whatever it takes to ...... before the war" Su Jia was calm in her heart, and finally handed over the task of ending the grievance to herself, it was Lu Jing's trust in herself, Su Jia clenched her fists and secretly swore, "No matter what, whether it is life or death, this task is only I can complete-"

Lao Jiu looked at Su Jia's resolute gaze, and sighed with emotion in his heart......

"By the way, speaking of Chen Shijin...... Lao Jiu suddenly remembered something, took out a secret letter from his waist, handed it to Su Jia and said, "Before the battle of Masticity Dingcheng, someone in the enemy position secretly sent back a letter......

"Send back the letter?" Su Jia turned her eyes back and couldn't help asking.

"It's the internal response that is placed in the enemy's formation, and the confidential information of the enemy garrison is transmitted back at any time - at first, it was only handed over to Miss Lu and General Xiao, but now that the two of them are missing, Neiying's letter will be inexplicably handed over to the old body for safekeeping......" Lao Jiu's expression was slightly serious, and he handed the letter and said, "I secretly looked at the content of the letter, and it said that it was related to Chen Shijin......"

"What, is it true?-" Hearing this, Su Jia's expression was stunned, and as a result, the secret letter in Lao Jiu's hand couldn't wait to open it and take a look.

The content of the letter was verified, Su Jia looked at it, and her eyes must be ...... when she tightened the letter

"What's wrong?" Looking at Su Jia's determined expression, Lao Jiu knew that his eight or nine would have a key mention, and couldn't help asking.

"The letter says that Chen Shijin's whereabouts ......" Su Jia put down the letter and said in a low voice, "In two days, he will go to the Amber Hill Peak and Valley alone......"

"Amber Hill Peak Valley, or is it alone?" Lao Jiu heard this, and said with a little doubt, "What is this Chen Shijin thinking, now that the war is tense, why is he going to Amber Hill alone? If he hears the news of the loss of Mast City and Dingcheng tonight, will he still make such a trip?"

"Yes, as the letter says, Chen Shijin will definitely do what he says-" Su Jia said very firmly.

"I don't understand what Chen Shijin means...... Lao Jiu shook his head hesitantly, and said unconsciously, "And this Neiying who was planted in the enemy formation was actually clear about Chen Shijin's actions, and he was very sure that he would not change his plan, could it be said that the relationship between him and Chen Shijin was very close? That emperor is really bold, and he actually installed an internal ...... who is close to the enemy's commander" Between suspicions, Lao Jiu, who has always been thoughtful, can't help but be curious about the identity of Neiying in the enemy formation.

"Whatever—Ah Tian and Sister Jing said that the news that should be sent back from the enemy army should be fully believed...... Su Jia crumpled the letter paper and said firmly, "But none of this is important, the important thing is that I finally know Chen Shijin's whereabouts...... Two days later, in the peak valley of Huqiu, the task given to me by Jingmei is to assassinate Chen Shijin, and I will rush to Tongguan tomorrow - Tongguan has been fighting for so long, this is the first time I have had the opportunity to see Chen Shijin, wait, this time the grievance is over, I won't miss it again......" After speaking, Su Jia showed a confident and resolute gaze - different from the previous hatred of drinking blood, this time, Su Jia is with faith and perseverance, facing her grievances that will end sooner or later......

"Just tell General Lu Ling, I don't have time to see his 'celebration banquet'......" Knowing Chen Shijin's whereabouts, Su Jia remounted her war horse and said to Lao Jiu, "I think after Sister Jing's own plan is completed, there will definitely be other arrangements in the future...... Old Nine, I'll leave the rest to you—"

"The old body knows, rest assured, just leave everything to the old body......" Lao Jiu nodded, and then threw a worried look at Su Jia, "It's Miss Su, you yourself - Chen Shijin's danger doesn't need to be said by the old body, you go to assassinate by yourself, you must take care of yourself......"

"Hmm...... Su Jia nodded intently, rode his horse, and galloped away from the Dingcheng station.

"Must ...... Beware......" Seeing the figure of Su Jiayu riding away, Lao Jiu said secretly in his heart......

The next day, at the bottom of the narrow valley in front of the amber hill......

On the strange road, Zheng Yuhua was alone, walking alone in the narrow valley and mountains. Since the brief meeting with Chen Shijin in Tongguan, his heart has not been quiet for a day - he has agreed on a life-and-death duel, and tomorrow is the day of the decisive battle......

"Tomorrow is the day of the showdown...... Zheng Yuhua held his sword and said secretly while walking in the middle of the narrow valley, "Chen Shijin, as long as I defeat you, I will be able to challenge Mo Tianxing as agreed...... Mo Tianxing is the enemy who indirectly killed my parents, and I will never let him go - even if I don't kill him, I will let him get the end he deserves......"

With determination in his heart, Zheng Yuhua's inner persistence became more and more firm, and occasionally accelerated his pace from time to time, rushing towards the direction of Amber Hill.

"Defeated the little junior sister, followed by Chen Shijin...... It turns out that in the Wind Chasing Sect, the little junior sister is not Chen Shijin's opponent, and defeating the little junior sister has wasted a lot of strength, I'm afraid Chen Shijin will be more difficult to deal with......" Thinking of his defeat of Su Jia, compared to Chen Shijin's strength, Zheng Yuhua was faintly worried, "And this time, it is a real martial arts duel of the Wind Chasing School - Chen Shijin is proficient in the full style of the 'Wind Chasing Nine Swords', and he has mastered the four styles of the 'Heavenly God Sword Technique'...... And I just comprehend the two styles of the 'Heavenly God Sword Technique', not to mention that Chen Shijin will not go crazy like the little junior sister, if I want to fight hard, I am afraid that I will be completely at a disadvantage, can I really defeat Chen Shijin......"

Thinking of the "gap" between himself and Chen Shijin, Zheng Yuhua felt faintly uneasy.

"No, since we have come to this point, we can't have any more hesitation...... Zheng Yuhua suddenly clenched his fists, and said calmly in his heart, "Even if the martial arts moves are not as good, there may not be no possibility of defeating him...... I know the weaknesses of the Wind Chasing Sword Technique and even the 'Celestial God Sword Technique', and as long as I respond to the target, I still have a great chance...... Wait, father, mother, and Hongyun, I will definitely defeat Chen Shijin, and finally break with Mo Tianxing, and give you an explanation without regrets-"

Holding the Hanmei Sword, with an unchanging will in his heart, Zheng Yuhua continued to walk in the direction of Amber Hill......

In the future, the valley of the green underworld. Today is cloudy, and there is a fear of thunderstorms as it gets later......

This is the place where Xiao Tian and Sima Hanyi went to the appointment, and it is also the site of the Spirit Shadow Sect......

The sky is high and far away, the ancient temple is rugged, and the green valley sits on the cliff of the three rings of high mountains, like the plank road of the heavenly road, and the ethereal temple. The mountain cliff is 100 zhang high, the cliff is attached to the rock, dozens of ancient temples of all sizes are located in the middle, there is also the appearance of the fairy view of the ladder plank road, the posture of the waterfall, the desperate road is natural, the ghost axe is wonderful, and the heart is fascinated.

This is the Qingying Valley, the place where the Lingying Sect members are cultists, like a fairy mountain climbing out of thin air, a spiritual hall on the high mountain cliff, and the clouds and mist are shrouded in it, if it is not for the sinister of the Lingying Sect, anyone will also feel that this place around the mountain and the ancient temple must be the holy land of Taoist cultivation of immortals - the clouds and mist are auspicious, the fairy wind is one breath, and the hundred are cultivated, and the distance is seen by the railing......

Now that the day before the appointment, Sima Hanyi and the followers of the Spirit Shadow Sect were looking forward to it. At the top of the mountain, the wind and clouds are intertwined, and Sima Hanyi is sitting in it. And in the high mountain cliffs and plank roads and temples one after another, hundreds of disciples of the Spirit Shadow Sect seemed to be ready to "meet the enemy", and they all had cold knives in their hands, waiting quietly on the high mountain cliff wall.

With such a large formation and such a majestic aura, it is just waiting for one person to come......

And the people who attended this "desperate banquet" today were not only the two parties who went to the appointment here, but also the three people who were taken as hostages by Sima Hanyi's side, Xu Shuang, Wu Xian and Lu Tao, were tied to a pillar - this is his own bargaining chip today, in order to lure Xiao Tian to show up, he held hostages for several days......

"Damn, what do these guys want to do......" Looking at today's huge "pomp", remembering that he and others had been detained for several days, Xu Shuang broke free from the rope and gritted his teeth and said angrily, "You took my sword away before...... That sword, but Sister Xiaohong gave it to me before, if these bastards lose it, I will never spare them-"

"Save it, what can you do now that you are being held hostage?" Sima Hanyi couldn't help but sneer when he heard Xu Shuang's complaints on the side.

"You hateful old thief, what are you doing holding us hostage? Aren't you looking for the Canglong hero, if you have the ability, go to him yourself-" Xu Shuang didn't change his straightforward temper, and he was not afraid of death and scolded Sima Hanyi, "A young man still plays such a despicable method, keeps saying that he wants to kill the Canglong hero, but he plays the trick of taking hostages, he is a coward!"

"Hey, Xiaoshuang......" Xu Shuang spoke too much, for fear of angering Sima Hanyi, Wu Xian mentioned softly on the side.

Who knows, Sima Hanyi was not annoyed, his disdainful face just smiled coldly, he didn't look at Xu Shuang, and said slyly, "Hmph, the reason why the old man caught you is just to lure the Canglong hero to show up, once the comer is inferior to one of them, the old man will naturally not make it difficult for you......"

"Cut, that's so nice......" Xu Shuang didn't believe Sima Hanyi, and continued to say disdainfully.

Sima Hanyi seemed to have other intentions, and couldn't help but ask in a condensed voice: "By the way, do you think that Canglong Daxia will go to the appointment on time to save you?"

"Then you don't need to say, Brother Xiao, he is upright, so he won't be afraid of a shameless person like you-" Wu Xian was not afraid, and scolded loudly.

"Then what do you think, Miss Xu?" Sima Hanyi seemed to be deliberately targeting Xu Shuang, and asked with a glance in his eyes.

"Hmm......" Xu Shuang seemed to have a secret knot in his heart, wandering, and it was difficult to express what he had to say.

"The old man knows, you want your senior sister to come and save you, right......" Sima Hanyi broke Xu Shuang's mind with a word, and deliberately mocked, "But the old man said before, if the Canglong hero comes and dares to bring others, I will threaten your lives...... It's a pity that I can only see him alone today...... Oh, no, maybe Canglong Daxia didn't have the courage to come, and you won't even see him......" While being cunning, Sima Hanyi even mocked Xiao Tianlai.

"Brother Xiao will definitely come to save us, I believe Brother Xiao!" Lu Tao couldn't help but cheer on the side.

"No matter what means you old thief use, Canglong Hero will definitely knock you down-" Xu Shuang couldn't help but retort, but his heart was extremely entangled.

Sima Hanyi saw Xu Shuang's thoughts, and said with a cold smile: "Oh, is it? You trust Canglong Daxia so much...... As far as I know, don't you hate him? Why, you're talking to him now......"

"You hateful old thief......" Knowing that Sima Hanyi was deliberately "playing" with his own mind, Xu Shuang gritted his teeth and said indignantly.

"You've always hated him, the old man knows it very well, you don't have to lie...... Don't worry, the old man will definitely kill this hateful man for you with his own hands as you wish......" Sima Hanyi continued to mock......
