Chapter 34: The Sword is as Cold as the Heart
In the mountains and fields forty miles away from Wushuang City, a woman walked through the mountains and fields, if Lin Yong would definitely be able to recognize her here, she was Ye Ru. At this time, the night was approaching, and the surrounding forests were dark in the depths, and it seemed that at any moment, Ye Ru was guarding against this. The more she walked, the more scared she became, but her fear was far less than her enthusiasm for wanting to find Lin Yong. Her mood was very complicated, she wanted to see Lin Yong, but she remembered Lin Yong's farewell that night, and hoped that she would never see him again, in fact, this was her inner anger, in this contradiction, she walked to the mountain in despair.
There was a constant noise in the woods, and the branches and leaves were stirring. Sometimes there is a light drizzle in the forest.
Ye Ru drew his sword out of the sheath and walked cautiously in the forest, for fear that some beasts would infest. Sometimes the more you worry about it, the more likely it is to happen. Suddenly, there was a rush in front of her, and it was a deer scurrying through the trees, which frightened her into a cold sweat. She just breathed a sigh of relief, but looked up and found that a leopard in front of her was looking at her, Ye Ru was so frightened that she didn't dare to stay, and she didn't know what to do, so she ran away with a long sword, but no matter how she ran, she couldn't shake off the leopard's pursuit, Ye Ru screamed while running, but how useful is this deep mountain and old forest, maybe it was running too fast, and his feet were unstable, so he fell, at this time the leopard was slowly remembering to walk, Ye Ru looked at the leopard in front of him in despair at the moment, thinking about his father and friend Lin Yong.
Just when Ye Ru was desperate, a tall figure stood in front of her, and when she looked at it, it turned out that it was the man who saved herself that day, and the man who drank wine for two days and two nights, although he didn't know his name yet, but his appearance at this moment gave her a little more hope in despair, but at the same time, she was also worried about this man.
The person who came here was the Jian Batian who came here to find Ye Ru, he didn't expect Ye Ru to be here at all, he happened to hear someone shouting at the time, so he came over to take a look, what made him excited was that the person in front of him was really the Ye Ru he was looking for, Jian Batian looked at the leopard in front of him, and his face was cold at the moment, maybe the leopard saw the ferocity of this person, and after staring at it for about two minutes, he turned around and ran into the woods, looking at the leopard in the distance, Jian Batian's face eased slightly, turned his head to look at Ye Ru, and then helped Ye Ru up, and said: Girl, are you okayYe Ru looked at Jian Batian and tears of excitement, and said: I thought I would die here!
Jian Batian looked at Ye Ru, who was moving in front of him, and said softly: As long as I am here in the future, I will never let anyone hurt you. Ye Ru was also very moved when she heard Jian Batian say this, but Ye Ru thought that it would be good if Lin Yong said this, and she couldn't help but feel a little lost in her heart. But said with a smile: My name is Ye Ru, what is your name? Jian Batian was also stunned, he didn't expect to suddenly ask his name, and then reacted and responded: My name is Batian. What a domineering name, Ye Ru said with a smile. Ye Ru's smile at this moment fell in the eyes of Jian Batian, and it was simply overwhelming, as if everything in the world could not be compared with her.

At night, Lin Yong walked alone outside the Heavenly City, and when he passed by a ruin at this time, a gust of night wind blew, which made people feel a kind of desolation. Suddenly, more than a dozen black shadows on the tree took short blades, turned into a long rainbow, and stabbed towards Lin Yong. Lin Yong was also shocked, and then jumped lightly to avoid the black shadow, but he was also stabbed in his left arm, and blood flowed out of the wound. At this time, more than a dozen people held short blades in their hands and surrounded Lin Yong.
Looking at the dress of these people, as well as the short blades in their hands, they were exactly the same as the hell gate they intercepted last time, Lin Yong thought to himself that there was no doubt that it should be the hell gate. However, Lin Yong still wanted to confirm it, so he asked, "You are from the Hell Gate?"
This is the leader of the man in black and smiled: Since you want to know so much, before you die, I am not afraid to tell you that we are from the Hell Gate, and the master of the gate ordered that we take down your head and go back to life, if you want to blame you, I don't know how to dare to be the enemy of the Hell Gate.
Hahaha! Lin Yong seemed to hear the best joke in the world, and then said coldly: Since you are here, let's all stay! Without waiting for the people in black to react. Lin Yong shouted: (Sword cold slash) The sword strength condenses ice, the surrounding air seems to be frozen at this moment, the people in black see that the situation is not good, volleyed up, dozens of short blades stabbed at Lin Yong, Lin Yong saw the situation is another move (Baihan Sword Intent), the sword shadow is as fast as lightning, the sword cold qi is flourishing, I saw the sword shadow in mid-air come back and shuttle, several screams remembered, all the people in black fell to the ground, touched their necks, and blood flowed out, only in two breaths, all the people in black fell to the ground in response, dying. Lin Yong looked at the tragic death of the black-clothed people in front of him, and felt helpless about their tragic death in his heart. I didn't want to kill, but I always wanted to kill.
At this time, in a boudoir in the main altar of the Demon Sect, Jian Batian walked in wearing a black sweat suit, Ye Ru turned his face away and refused to look at him, this was the only way to blame Jian Batian for deceiving himself and protesting.
Jian Batian came behind her and said with a smile: "I know that you have hatred for me in your heart, and you feel that I didn't tell you your true identity, but I did this because I love you." ”
Mu Qingsi sneered: Love me, don't you think it's ridiculous that I have a relationship with a demon here?
The world can see me like this, but you shouldn't, at least I'm wholeheartedly devoted to you, and I don't want to lose you by hiding my identity. Jian Batian looked at Ye Ru, thinking back to how to dominate the martial arts for countless nights, but he didn't want to be reluctant to give up for a woman.
Mu Qingsi wanted to say that I already belonged to my heart, but I was afraid that it would affect Lin Yong, so I swallowed what I wanted to say back into my stomach and was silent.
Jian Batian was most afraid of her silent protest, and said: "In this way, you stay here for a while, and if you still want to leave, you can leave at will and go to the person you like." ”
Mu Qingsi was silent for a moment and said, "You go out first! ”
Jian Batian said: "Come with me, take you to meet someone, maybe this is what I can do for you now?"
------------
In a secret room, Ye Ru saw Ye Qing sitting cross-legged on the bed, his face was pale, he didn't open his eyes when he heard the sound of the door opening, and he didn't open his eyes to see when he heard the sound of the door opening, until the door closed, Ye Ru called him, Ye Qing barely opened his eyes, and said in a lost voice: "Ye Qing!"
Although Ye Ru is usually angry with her father, who loves her, when she sees her father in such an environment, the tears she can hold back flow down like pearls.
Ye Qing smiled lovingly and said, "You are like your mother even crying." "It's a pity that your mother died early, and in order to protect the Tianlan Sect, my father only cares about practicing all day long, and he really doesn't care enough about you
Ye Ru asked curiously, "How did my mother die?" I remember when I was six years old, my mother ran away from home once and never came back, what happened to my father?
Ye Qing sighed, both of them have become ancients, love and hatred, like yesterday's yellow flowers, he also suffered this calamity, the future is uncertain, the current quality is weak, and he is unable to maintain, what is the taste of life at all, and sighed again: "Your mother is the best woman I have ever met." ”
Ye Ru nodded and said: Although I haven't been with my mother for too long, my mother is really the kindest person in the world.
Ye Qing said with emotion: At the beginning, your mother didn't know how much hardship she suffered so that I could take over the position of Tianlan Sect Master, but she left our father and daughter like this, and I still have to remember your mother's smile back then. I didn't expect that I would end up losing all my martial arts and ending up like this, it's really sad and lamentable!
Ye Qing closed his eyes slightly, as if he was repenting for his mistakes.
Ye Ru cried and said: There must be a way, we will find a way, even if I exchange my life, I must find a way to heal you.
What the hell have you done to my father? I'm going to kill you, the big devil, when I suddenly draw my sword and stab at the sword tyrant. Jian Batian took it lightly, and knocked the long sword in Ye Ru's hand, and then hurriedly explained: Your father has nothing to do with me like this, two years ago, your father practiced on the back mountain outside the Tianlan Sect, and he went crazy if he didn't practice. But since I saw you two years ago, I found out that he was your father Ye Qing, and I tried my best to save him, but I couldn't change the ending of his martial arts being wasted. Mu Qingen took out the silk scarf and gently wiped away his tears, a strange and resolute look shot out of his eyes.
Ye Ru showed an exhausted look and leaned against the wall, which made people feel pity. Jian Batian's heart softened for a while, and he snatched over to support her fragrant shoulder, and the elastic and youthful female body beat under his hands, and Jian Batian's heart immediately beat faster. His lips were dry, and no woman had ever touched his heart like Ye Ru.
Ye Ru surprisingly did not refuse, closed her eyes and said, "Save my father, I am willing to obey you in everything." ”
Is there a way to save my father? I don't want him to be like this. Ye Ru said sadly.
I will definitely find a way to save your father, and you will live here with him now, and when I will destroy those so-called famous and decent families in the future, I will definitely ask for an explanation for you and your father.
Ye Ru turned his head to look at Jian Batian at this moment, and said with a smile: Is it for me, or is it for your ambition to dominate the rivers and lakes? Looking at the back of Ye Ru's departure, Jian Batian, who had been murderous, also had a strong sense of sadness.

The scorching sun, wind-blown sand, loess, a poor town on the north side of the western border, but on the barren loess plateau, this town is already good, because within a hundred miles of the neighborhood, it is the only place with clear water. Therefore, there are actually a few brick houses and a few shops in the town, and Lin Yong finally arrived here after a difficult journey. He had been on the road almost day and night, and had almost forgotten what wine was like, and he had slept as if it had been a few days ago. Now I finally found a small town
I really want to drink some wine, sleep beautifully, and forget all the troubles. In order to comfort the guilt of Ye Ru in my heart, and the miss of Uncle Qin, Master, and Yixuan.
Lin Yong originally arrived in the Western Regions to find Fu Zhenglin, but he never thought that the place he came to now was separated from the Zhenglin Dart Bureau by more than 500 miles, so he dispelled this idea. The sun shone on his face, and he was tired after so many days, and he couldn't wait to find someone to carry him to the wine shop. Lin Yong found a table and sat down and said, "Give me a pot of wine, I'm here to plate beef."
Then a thin, small, dark, and dry woman came out, carrying a copper flask, and "put the flask on the table." Lin Yong looked at Lin Yong expressionlessly and said: There is no beef, but mutton can be eaten? Lin Yong looked at the woman's expression as if he owed her money, but there was only one town nearby, so it was better to eat it closely! I didn't want to starve myself to death in the yellow sand. smiled and said: Then let's have a plate of mutton. The woman still wanted to walk to the kitchen with a blank face.
The woman was not ugly, she was not very old, her eyes were not small, but her skin seemed to have been dried, perhaps because of the climate.
One afternoon, Lin Yong actually drank six or seven pots of wine, and in the blink of an eye, he was already in his stomach, and the little woman naturally came out more than a dozen times, and each time she put the wine jug on the table, turned her head and left. Later, as soon as she walked out of the door, Lin Yong became accustomed to it.
At this time, a man in a gray and black cloth shirt came into the house, looked at the room, and sat down at Lin Yong's table, he patted the table and shouted: "Wine, wine, send wine quickly! Do you want to kill me?" The woman walked out with a copper wine jug, threw the wine jug on the table with a "bang", turned her head and walked back, she didn't even look at the man out of the corner of her eye, and the man didn't seem to be surprised. Only when she was gone, did the man turn his head, pour two bowls of wine, and said with a smile: This little brother, you have to drink some together. At this time, Lin Yongyi was drunk for six points, looked up at the man, and said: Drink wine, right? As the saying goes, "Wine is less than a thousand cups for a confidant", so today, "let's sing about wine and live a geometric life." The man was happy to drink with Lin Yong, he only tilted his neck, and the big bowl of wine suddenly disappeared. Lin Yong also drank it, probably a little drunk, but he wrinkled his nose and said, "Is this really wine?"
The man said, "What is it not wine?"
Lin Yong smiled: "I thought it was vinegar!"
The man laughed, poured the wine again, and said with a smile: "In this kind of place, you are already lucky to have this kind of wine to drink." ”
Lin Yong also laughed out loud, almost squirting out a mouthful of wine, and the two talked and laughed happily, like old friends who had known each other for eight hundred years.
The man smiled and said, "Now, I'm going to listen to you, how did you come here?
Lin Yong's expression suddenly became heavy, he was silent for a long time, and said slowly: "Life is like wine, wine is like life?"
In that case, do you want to go to Lan County with you and me?
Lin Yong said as if he was not drunk: You are short of a drinker, why do you want to pull me, I just want to get drunk myself. After saying that, he fell asleep on the table.
Hey, I'm going to have to carry you again, I'm looking for a drinker, but I don't want to find an alcoholic. After speaking, he put a silver ingot on the net table, and walked towards the inn with Lin Yong on his back.
On the night street with yellow sand, two men also add a touch of vitality to the barren town, but where they will be tomorrow, no one knows!
