In the early morning, the mountain fog is hazy, and the grass and trees hang with morning dew.

Qian Lingxue returned from the mountain and brought back a lot of medicinal herbs.

"Miss Qian went to collect medicine again, and I'm bothering you again today. Aunt Yue welcomed happily.

Qian Lingxue had picked a lot of herbs from the mountain, and it had been a few days since she was able to get out of bed. These days, I basically help Aunt Yue find herbs and come back, and occasionally help other people in the village.

Except for helping, the time is spent recovering from injuries.

"Nothing, just looking for something to do. Qian Lingxue said lightly.

These days, it has helped the people in the village a lot. After a few days, there was no one in the village who didn't recognize her.

Yue'er also had a few playmates of the same age playing around Qianlingxue, and was beckoned by Aunt Yue to enter the house to eat freshly steamed pastries.

Seeing that there were still a few unwashed clothes in the wooden barrel in the house, Qian Lingxue brought the wooden barrel over.

"I'll wash the clothes in a while, you don't have to come, you've been busy with so many things, take a break." ”

"Nothing, I just went out for a walk. Qian Lingxue couldn't help but say and left with the barrel.

Aunt Yue couldn't help sighing in the back, and said in her heart that Qian Lingxue had just gotten better now, and she was really afraid that she would be tired out of such hard work.

Qian Lingxue carried the wooden barrel through the ridges, and whenever anyone saw her on the way, she would take the initiative to greet her, and Qian Lingxue would respond one by one.

Alone on the river, you will go downstream along the bank until you come to a shallow place where the river is gentle. When you come here, you can't see the village anymore.

The wooden barrel was placed on the stone mill, and Qian Lingxue walked to the bank of the river, found a piece of bluestone and sat down.

The river flows quietly at your feet, flanked by half-man-high pampas reeds.

The breeze blew, holding up her black hair, and the grass was overwhelmed by patches.

It's very calm, since she came to this village, Qian Lingxue's heart has never been calmer.

In an isolated place, you can let go of the distractions in your heart, and although the few days here are not long, it is rare to have such leisure.

It's not as silent as in the pure mind, but it's also like the heart in the Izuyang Palace, here, it seems to have let go of all the burdens in my heart.

Now that he has escaped from the Izuyang Palace, he no longer needs to be controlled by others. also left the Yunxuan Kingdom, no longer a member of Qingyun Castle, alone, but brisk.

I don't know how long these days will last......

After sitting for a long time, Qian Lingxue began to pulp laundry.

After cleaning a few pieces, I suddenly heard something. In the distance, in addition to the sound of wind and water, the footsteps of people could be heard.

Qian Lingxue's movements paused abruptly and looked sideways slightly.

I saw two men coming from the upstream direction, two men wearing armor and dressed as soldiers of the royal family of the Izuyang Kingdom.

Qian Lingxue hurriedly lowered her head and took out a scarf and wrapped it around her face, covering half of her face.

How can there be soldiers here? Could it be that they are chasing soldiers?

The two men talked and laughed as they walked.

"Eh, you said, so many things have happened in succession recently, and our Izuyang Kingdom seems to be getting more and more unstable. A man kicked away the reeds and grumbled.

"Then what's the solution, I feel like I haven't had a day of peace since the end of the Heavenly Demon War. There have been several beast tides in the north, and the recent monsters are all dishonest. Some time ago, someone broke into the palace at night, and that Qian Lingxue also fled, and then someone made trouble at the wedding, and this day was simply impossible. ”

Another person also said: "Yes, this time we specially sent people everywhere to arrest the escapees, you said that we have nothing to do with this, why waste so much effort." ”

The two men talked as they got closer and closer.

Qian Lingxue listened to them by the river talk about catching the escapees, and her heartstrings tensed.

Sure enough, he came to catch himself.

She escaped that day and drifted down the river to this point, in fact, she had always had a fear that if those people insisted on looking for her traces, sooner or later they would notice the river and look for it along the river. Now that he is hiding in the village, it is only a matter of time before he encounters these searchers.

Sure enough, you still can't hide?

There is no place to hide here, the other two are demon masters, and it is impossible for Qian Lingxue to hide in her current state.

The scarf covers half of his face, pretending to be struggling to wash his clothes by the river.

When the two people walked nearby, they naturally saw Qian Lingxue at a glance.

Both of them were slightly stunned.

"Oh, there's a village girl in this kind of place?" said one of them, laughing playfully.

Although Qian Lingxue was dressed plainly and covered her face, she still couldn't completely cover her temperament. From the side, there is a feeling that it does not match this kind of dress.

Qian Lingxue wanted to avoid the attention of these two people like this, but who knew that it would backfire.

The two people looked at each other and walked over in unison.

"Hey, woman, show your face. One person said.

Qian Lingxue remained silent, and the movements in her hands slowly stopped.

"What about you, do you hear me?" another person shouted.

Although she was prepared in her heart, Qian Lingxue was still a little bitter in her heart, knowing that she might not be able to avoid it today.

"I don't know you. Qian Lingxue said.

Put the washed clothes into the barrel, turn around and want to leave.

Seeing this, the two people laughed playfully, and one of them took the initiative to reach out and grab Qian Lingxue.

Qian Lingxue didn't dodge, and the other party ripped off the scarf around her neck.

That peerless face was exposed, and both of them had a little straight eyes.

"Haha, I can't imagine that there is such a woman in this remote place. "A person's eyes are full of gold and greed.

"Hey, woman, we're on the hunt for the culprits. Seeing you sneaking around here, come with us. Another person also said excitedly.

In such a remote place, I really didn't think of such a beauty.

What kind of search for criminals, those things have long been thrown out of the clouds. Even the Qian Lingxue in front of him didn't notice that the appearance in front of him was somewhat similar to the portrait they saw.

A person went up and grabbed Qian Lingxue.

Qian Lingxue gently closed her eyes, as if sighing silently.

There was a crisp sound of the sword, and the sound of the clanging was like a re-plucked string.

The man who stepped forward suddenly froze in place, his smile still stiffening on his face. A line of blood appeared between his neck, and his skull fell limply.

Hot blood splattered out, splashing the other man's head and face.

As if an initiation, another man suddenly woke up from his greedy heart.

Looking at that indifferent face, I was suddenly shocked.

"You...... You are Qianlingxue!"

The face was almost identical to one of the portraits they had ever seen.

Qian Lingxue was holding a bloodstained long sword, and it was true that her body had not recovered, but the two people in front of her were just little demon masters.

For her, even if she didn't recover, it would be a no-brainer to kill the two men.

The rest of the men were all gone, and the ground was blood-red, turning this green mountain and green water into a hell on earth.

Qian Lingxue stepped forward with a sword.

The man's legs trembled and he stepped back: "You...... What the hell do you want?"

I tripped over a rock in the back of my foot, lost my balance and fell.

A demon master, but tripped over a stone, how funny it looks.

Qian Lingxue pressed forward step by step with her sword, and the man couldn't stop retreating.

"Thousand ...... Qian Lingxue, don't force me. You are now a key criminal of my Yang Kingdom, and even if you flee to the ends of the earth, you will not be able to escape from the palm of my Yang Kingdom. If you are caught, maybe Your Majesty will open the net. ”

Qian Lingxue turned a deaf ear, and her demeanor did not change at all.

She is not a saint, and she will not show mercy to any "enemy".

"You spare me...... You spare my life, and I promise not to tell anyone about your whereabouts. When the man saw that the threat was useless, he begged for mercy.

Qian Lingxue's long sword shook slightly.

"You can't kill me...... Spare my life!"

Qian Lingxue raised the blade of the sword with her hand.

Seeing that it was useless to pray, the man was born to the side of his guts, and when he gritted his teeth at the moment of life and death, he suddenly slammed his palm.

With a wave of Qian Lingxue's sword, that energy was directly cut off.

The man screamed, blood gushed out, and an arm was broken at the shoulder.

The pain of a broken arm is unbearable. The man screamed in pain, tossing and turning on the ground, and his body was stained with blood.

"You...... You can't escape......"

The man's eyes were split, and he knew that it was useless to resist.

Crawling forward, a long trail of blood dragged out behind him.

"If you kill me, someone will find you. You can't escape from my Yang Kingdom, we will continue to send people to arrest you, and there will never be peace wherever you go......"

Before the man's last words fell, Qian Lingxue's sword blade had already pierced his throat.

Qian Lingxue would not say such a thing as sparing his life, and letting him go today will inevitably attract others to come. The only thing that can be done is to wipe them out.

Blood flowed down the blade of the sword, and the man had fallen in a pool of blood.

Qian Lingxue stood for a long time, and with a wave of her hands, the two corpses turned into ice sculptures, and she waved her hand again, and the two ice sculptures and the blood stains on the ground turned into ice dust and scattered.

Qian Lingxue stood in place for a long time, her expression slightly dazed.

The corpses and blood on the ground were gone, but she could still feel some warmth in her sword-gripping hand.

With a sigh and a long sword, she returned to the river to collect the washed clothes, and after they were all processed, she returned with the barrel.

As soon as she returned to the vicinity of the village, someone greeted her warmly.

"The Thousand Girls are back?"

Qian Lingxue nodded lightly.

"Sister Qian, can you play with us? ”

Yue'er also had a few children of five or six years old running in front of her, circling around her.

"Yue'er, don't pester your sister Qian, come back quickly when you're tired. Aunt Yue in the distance was also waving at her.

Qian Lingxue walked in the field with a wooden barrel, her long hair fluttering lightly behind her back.

Yue'er ran to grab her hand, Qian Lingxue was slightly stunned, and she subconsciously avoided it.

Looking at Yue'er's innocent smiling face, there was still a trace of warmth left in his hands, and for some reason, his mood was rarely a little fluctuating.

"Sister Qian, can you take me back? ”

"Next time. Qian Lingxue said with a forced smile.

Wherever you go, you will never be at peace......

The words of that man before he died were heard in his ears, lingering in Qian Lingxue's heart for a long time.

If you stay here, you'll bring trouble one day.

I don't think I can stay here for long......

Time flies, and since then, another two days have passed.

Qian Lingxue helped Aunt Yue prepare the herbs and sat in front of the house.

Children frolicked in front of the house, and occasionally someone passed by to greet her.

"Miss Qian, I've worked hard for you these past few days. Aunt Yue came over with water, "In the past few days, I have basically let you do everything by yourself." ”

"It's nothing, I'm just injured, my body is too stiff after sleeping for a long time, I always have to move. ”

Aunt Yue smiled happily: "You are so knowledgeable and a girl, if anyone marries you in the future, it will be a blessing for a lifetime." ”

Qian Lingxue smiled faintly.

Since she encountered the pursuers of the Izuyang Kingdom two days ago, she has been extremely vigilant in the past two days.

But fortunately, after those two people, there were no pursuers.

Do you have to stay any longer?

The atmosphere here, Qian Lingxue is not annoying. If she could, she would have preferred to stay longer, but she knew that was not possible.

Where you are, there will never be peace......

Sometimes when I think about it, there is nothing wrong with those words.

He is now a person who has absconded, and as long as he is there, there will be a steady stream of pursuers.

I'm almost healed from my injuries, so when my injuries heal, I'll leave.

"I see that your body is almost well, do you want to go out together today?" Aunt Yue came up and asked kindly.

"Where are you going?" asked Qian Lingxue.

"As I told you last time, there are two cities near us. Closer is Tian'an City, and farther is Baihua City. That Hundred Flowers City is a city run by a sect called Hundred Flowers Palace. You've helped us mix so many medicines during this time, and we don't need much of them ourselves. Many people in the village are discussing and want to sell the ones that are not needed. ”
