Chapter 33 (4)

Jiang Yanchen said: "What are you always cruel to me? Since my debut, until now, few people have dared to order me. Do you want to make up for it at once?" Shangguan Yaohua said: "Since you said it, I have the privilege of offending you and not dying, and it is a waste not to use it." Hey, don't you think I'm much better to you now than I was then? I'm not satisfied? I don't think you can say it, like an abused little daughter-in-law complaining to her husband's family. ”

Jiang Yanchen laughed, the corners of his mouth trembled twice, and said, "You can figure it out." Shangguan Yaohua still doesn't forget his "fault", even if his impression has changed now, he doesn't dare to be too respectful to him, and he still has to act prestigiously from time to time. As for whether Nangong Xue can be safe, he can't help but have a bottom in his heart.

After walking forward for a long time, the wind howled in the woods, and occasionally a few hares were seen jumping in front of the roots of the trees, and disappeared in a flash.

Shangguan Yaohua said in his heart: "Some people have practiced martial arts all their lives, and their final attainments in light martial arts are not as good as this hare. Beasts are extremely hidden, both by nature and necessary for survival. I hope that Ah Xue will live in the rivers and lakes for a long time, and she will also have a good ability to conceal herself. "But if she really has excellent skills, she shouldn't let a few subordinates of the palace easily find out. He didn't think about that.

Going up the mountain already consumes physical strength, plus he is worried all the way for Nangong Xue, and after walking a few steps, he is already sweating profusely, and his expression is tired and flustered, which is even more anxious than anyone else. Jiang Yanchen saw it in his eyes, and he was puzzled by his strange state in his heart, and at the same time pondered why he was like this. Both of them couldn't stop calculating for a while, their faces were calm and indifferent, and their minds didn't know where to turn for a long time.

After a few more hours, Shangguan Yaohua was so tired that he was exhausted, leaned against a tree to rest, and said in his heart: "Even I feel miserable, Ah Xue is just a girl, how can she stand it?"

I heard the sound of rushing water in my ears, and it seemed to be close at hand. It is just that the whole body and face are covered with sweat, and the whole person is like being drenched in the heavy rain, and he is looking forward to washing his face, even if he can refresh himself, and look around. It didn't matter what he saw, but his eyes almost popped out, and he almost rolled off his head.

I saw a small stream in front of me, which is not strange, but strange is that there is a woman kneeling by the stream, picking a horizontal flat pole, hanging a bucket on each side, and at this time a bucket is spread out by the river, quietly scooping water. The woman wore a wide green robe, which made her body look even thinner, and she also wore a coarse cloth hood around her head. When the two buckets were filled, I vaguely saw her smile movingly, half-raised her head, and wiped the sweat from her forehead across her sleeves. It is clearly Nangong Xue, who has been missing for several months.

Shangguan Yaohua's heart was about to jump out of his mind, and he glanced at it tremblingly, but fortunately, Jiang Yanchen had not yet realized it. But it was still difficult to expect her to leave before she did. While the corner of his eye is always swept behind him, he squats down and slowly grasps a small stone in his hand. Taking advantage of Jiang Yanchen's eyes to the side, he hurriedly threw the stone out.

The stone crossed an arc in the air, and the snapping sound fell into the water, causing a thin layer of splash, and a few drops were still falling on Nangong Xue's face. Shangguan Yaohua went to look at Jiang Yanchen in fear, and turned his head to take advantage of the time to investigate. After a while, even my head was dizzy. I hoped that Nangong Xue could understand the hint and leave immediately to avoid a crisis.

However, the heavens did not fulfill people's wishes, and Nangong Xue not only saw the ripples in the water, but also saw the stone. Just as there was a naughty boy nearby who was making fun of her, she looked along the way, and happened to see Shangguan Yaohua leaning against the tree, his face full of melancholy. She only knew what happened in the wilderness, but she didn't know what happened next. At this time, he was surprised and delighted, and called: "Cheng Gongzi? Yes...... Is that you? Are you alright?"

Shangguan Yaohua hurriedly gestured, and at the same time cooperated with the gesture, and said, "Go, go!" But the mountain wind was fierce, and the sound of the water was rattling, and he didn't dare to make too much noise, so he only squeezed out a small sound between his lips and teeth. The two are still separated by a distance, and they have long been covered up. Nangong Xue couldn't hear it clearly for a while, but she took the initiative to take a few steps forward and asked, "What did you say?"

Shangguan Yaohua was so anxious that he wanted to cry without tears, and was about to make more gestures, when he suddenly felt a gust of wind passing by him. raised his hand to clasp it, but he intercepted it, and watched Jiang Yanchen flash in front of Nangong Xue. I had no choice but to run downhill and chase all the way.

Jiang Yanchen made a merciless move, and attacked Nangong Xue like a few killing moves. Before Nangong Xue could parry, he received a heavy blow on his arm, and his wrist was weak under the severe pain, and the bucket slipped off his hand, dripping all over the ground. Jiang Yanchen kicked the bucket away, and the offensive did not stop at all, and one move was as tight as one move. Nangong Xue fell into the wind as soon as she started, and she was extremely powerless in the parry, and she was forced to retreat into the stream step by step.

Jiang Yanchen poked out a few fingers in a row, and Nangong Xue was hit on the shoulder, and he immediately saw blood. When he fell backwards, he stepped into the water and spilled to his ankles. At this time, the stream was extremely cold, Nangong Xue suddenly became excited, and his consciousness was also a lot clearer, and he jumped out of the water when he mentioned his internal strength, leading him to turn to the forest.

As far as Jiang Yanchen is concerned, no matter where she is, it is just a cat playing with a mouse, and the venue is up to her. Unexpectedly, Nangong Xue arrived next to the tree, made a few moves indiscriminately, and suddenly turned around and lifted his feet, kicked the trunk of the tree, and the leaves on the tree fell in a row. Jiang Yanchen was in the middle of it, and he only cared about sweeping away the leaves for a while. Nangong Xue took this opportunity to turn around and flee into the forest.

Although the leaves don't hurt people, they fall on the body one by one, and they obstruct the view, which is really annoying. Jiang Yanchen finally brushed away the leaves, and then saw that Nangong Xue had disappeared, but he still roughly remembered the direction of her escape. Irritated even more by this, he chased all the way, and at the same time discerned with the sound of subtle footsteps, exploring the path.

Nangong Xue has been in the mountains for a long time, and he is extremely familiar with the terrain in it, and he has already left him far behind, but the two have a huge difference in skills, but in the end, they can't escape. Seeing that he chased after him after a while, he was shocked, pulling rattan along the way, and throwing him backwards, which could stop him for a while. When Jiang Yanchen was chasing, there were constantly rattan sticks in his face, and he couldn't bear it anymore, so he raised his finger and swept. In an instant, all the rattans within miles were blown into ashes.

When Nangong Xue ran with all her might, she had to turn her head often to pay attention to the situation behind her, which also delayed her speed. It didn't take long to run, Jiang Yanchen raised his sleeve, and a black soft belt shot forward, bounced a few times on the trunk, firmly wrapped around Nangong Xue's neck, set it in a circle, and then pulled it back. Nangong Xue suddenly felt a tightness in her neck, and she only had time to pull the coil with both hands to prevent suffocation. At this point, his feet were off the ground, and he was almost dragged back in the air. When he was close, Jiang Yanchen struck out with a palm, hitting the Nangong Snow vest in the middle, and at the same time removing the soft belt.

Nangong Xue just wanted to cough violently, but suddenly felt a violent shock in her lungs, and a mouthful of blood almost spurted out, forcing herself to endure it, and at the same time, even the feeling of coughing had dissipated. I was left feeling unwell, and the inside of my body seemed to fall apart.

Jiang Yanchen sneered and said, "Where do you want to escape? Even if you hide in the deep mountains and old forests, won't you end up in the hands of this seat?"

Nangong Xue looked at the long hair hanging down in front of her eyes, took a deep breath, and said, "I have decided to quit the martial arts, and I will never ask about the affairs of the rivers and lakes again." Why do you have to keep trying to force each other?"

Jiang Yanchen said coldly: "Ridiculous! The debt between you and me, how can you settle it with a light sentence of 'quitting the martial arts'? forced me to kill my brother with my own hands, and the culprits of this matter are Li Yijie and Shen Shiyun, two sluts. But besieging my Shadow Sect that day, don't forget that you also have a part, and you can't get out of it either. I remember it clearly, don't even think about escaping! If you hide to the ends of the earth, this seat can also find out one by one and atone for his sins!"

Nangong Xue was not afraid, raised the back of her hand to wipe the blood from the corner of her mouth, and said, "I want to advise you, don't be too self-righteous." I will choose to retreat to the mountains and forests, not to escape, let alone to be afraid of you. You're just a poor person who doesn't know how to do your own thing, and in the end you're unfortunate enough to go down the wrong path. At most, I am sympathetic and lament that your paranoia has caused tragedy, and I should take it as a warning. But why be afraid?"

Jiang Yanchen was furious, pinched Nangong Xue's neck with one hand, and said word by word: "This seat is not pitiful! This seat can crown the heaven and earth, the ancient and modern, and no one can compare with me." What pity do I have? On the contrary, you who hate me deeply, practice martial arts hard, but have never been able to surpass me, and cannot kill me, in the eyes of this seat, you should really feel sorry for your own shortcomings!"

Nangong Xue shook her head and said, "You will kill the young marshal, it is completely out of madness caused by your own obsession." Not only do you refuse to admit your regrets, but you also refuse to admit your real mistakes. So you go on a killing spree and take out your anger on others. The idea is not to atone for your sins, but to pass on your sins to others, to provide you with an object to hate and take revenge. It's pitiful and ridiculous, like a three-year-old child falling to the ground, not thinking about his carelessness, but blaming the fault of the land. A child's heart is understandable, but you ...... Is your cognition still only at the age of three? All living beings in the world are equal, and you have no qualifications to claim the supreme position in the world? If you don't even dare to face yourself, you will always be like this, and you will never be able to grow up!"

Jiang Yanchen said hatefully: "What does this seat look like?" At the same time, the strength of his hand was added again and again, and her snow-white neck was immediately pinched into purple.

Nangong Xue was forced to raise her head, but her eyes were still fearless, and she said, "Despicable and shameless." It's filthy. ”

Jiang Yanchen's eyes turned, and he suddenly shook his hand and let her go, and said: "If you scold as you go, it can only be some meaningless words, no one can touch me, this is an indisputable fact! His revenge must be paid for with the lives of you sinners." As for my hatred, I will pay tribute to it with blood!"

Nangong Xue sneered: "Yes, you have been crazy in the past month, even if I live in seclusion in the mountains, I still hear from time to time that Your Excellency has committed major crimes in various places, and your hands have already been covered with countless blood. It's chilling to smell and cold to the teeth! There are people in the world who are so cold?"

Jiang Yanchen was stunned for a moment before he said, "I'm not an ordinary person. This seat is the god and demon in the mouth of you ordinary people! Indeed, I have long been in the blood debt, and I have been like this since I was a child! It is my sins that I will not be redeemed in my life. I have never wanted to ask for your forgiveness. ”

Nangong Xue shook her head lightly and said, "You...... Do you know how to regret it? As long as you have this mind, it is never too late. In the past few months, I have been reading Buddhist classics in the nunnery, and although I dare not say that I am proficient, I have at least understood the deep truth. There is a saying that touches me deeply: 'There is no one in the world who cannot be measured'. No matter what kind of evil he is, no matter how much evil he has done, as long as he changes his heart and turns from good to good, then everything in the past can be ignored. There is a way to put down the butcher's knife and become a Buddha on the ground......"
