The heavy rain outside the temple stopped, the air was clear, and the visions of lightning and thunder were completely gone, as if nothing had happened. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

A pile of open flames in the temple swayed with the mountain wind, appearing bright and dark, and the white plain clothes sleeping in the blanket gradually opened their eyes.

Straightened up her upper body and held her forehead with her hands, the faint pinprick headache made the corners of Bai Suyi's eyebrows furrow, she seemed to be a little unable to remember what happened before, and looked around blankly, and saw Mo Zhongqing taking off her shirt and sitting next to the fire, and a shocking knife wound on her back made her sober up a lot.

"Yes, we met the bandits, and I cast a spell, but the lightning struck me?

Thinking of this, Bai Suyi was shocked, looked at Qi Yanzhi on the side who was treating Mo Zhongqing's injuries with medicine, paused, and said, "Master Mo, you ...... injury."

Mo Zhongqing straightened his shirt, turned his head sideways and said, "Is the white girl awake?"

After a while, he saw that Bai Suyi didn't answer, his eyes seemed to be staring at his back, and then he smiled and said, "Oh, I was accidentally injured when I was fighting with Jin Biaowu before, it's okay! Mo Zhongqing said vaguely, but Bai Suyi understood that the only thing that could make Mo Zhongqing so seriously injured in the previous fight was when he gave up his body to throw himself down, but since he deliberately avoided talking about it, he was even more embarrassed to say it as a daughter, so he had to bow his head and whisper: "Thank you......." ”

Mo Zhongqing smiled in response, Bai Suyi saw that his heart was inexplicably moved, and he didn't look at him, but just said to Qi Yanzhi's work: "The disciple is overwhelmed, and he actually passed out...... I don't know how Mo Shaoxia defeated that wicked man later?"

Qi Yanzhi saw that her language was slurred, and couldn't help but say: "Where, it's still you who defeat the wicked, it's just that you are not very skilled in casting spells for the first time, and Lei Gang is the wrong person." ”

Seeing Qi Yanzhi's understatement, Bai Suyi listened to it, although he still had some doubts in his heart, he didn't dare to ask more.

Qi Yanzhi saw it and said: "I read very miscellaneous books, and I don't refuse to come, and when I was a guest, I had the honor to read the treasure of the Taisufang Town School, "Taisu Xuanjing". What I just taught you is indeed the method of thunder contained in it. And these, I believe that the white girl will be personally taught by the owner Zhuo Yuqing in the future. After that, he picked up the small empty bottle next to him, and continued: "This is the empty bottle left by the Jin Biao Wu before, I have done some research, and from the residual smell and powder, as well as the reaction of the Jin Biao Wu after taking the medicine, it seems to be some kind of pollen. ”

"Pollen? ”

Qi Yanzhi saw that Mo and Bai asked questions in unison, which showed that he didn't believe it, so he pursed his lips and said in a deep voice: "I actually have some clue about what kind of pollen it is, but I still have to look at it with my own eyes to confirm it." ”

Mo Zhongqing straightened his mind slightly, and said suspiciously: "Sir, are you going to find a place for the thieves to live?" But there seem to be too few of us, and the white girl is weak. Or send those four people to the official tomorrow and let the government send troops to exterminate them. ”

This was reasonable, and Qi Yanzhi couldn't help but say, "Don't worry, I didn't say to leave immediately." Just now I have sent a message by the white falcon to recruit a friend to come to help, he will arrive at noon tomorrow, we may as well wait here, and by the way, ask from the mouth of the bandit where this mountain gathers. Okay, there are still about two hours before dawn, you rest first, I'll go to guard those bandits, and then come to replace me at dawn, as for the white girl's weak body, there is no need to rotate. ”

Qi Yanzhi finished speaking in one breath, and without waiting for Mo Zhongqing to argue, he walked straight out. Mo Zhongqing knew that there would be a fierce battle tomorrow, so he no longer shirked, and signaled Bai Suyi to rest earlier, and then put his clothes together and slept on the spot.

In the early morning, after the heavy rain, the fog in the mountains gradually sank, and the clouds and fog surrounded the clouds and fog for several miles and did not see the sunrise.

A chick flapped its wings and swirled low in the forest, and finally stopped crying at the eaves of the mountain temple outside the forest. Although this cry was not loud, it woke up Mo Zhongqing in his sleep.

Mo Zhongqing rubbed his sleepy eyes, and saw that there was another blanket covering his body, and he was stunned for a moment, and quickly looked around the temple, and saw that Bai Suyi, the owner of the original blanket, was leaning on the pillar in the courtyard of the temple, holding his legs with both hands and bending his knees to sleep. Mo Zhongqing was suddenly startled when he saw a little peace in his heart, thinking that since Bai Suyi was still here and had never replaced Qi Yanzhi, how could he wake himself up in the future?

"What about others?"

Thinking about it, he suddenly became suspicious, and hurriedly got up and put the blanket on Bai Suyi's body and tiptoed out. When he went out of the door, he saw that the fog was thick and he couldn't distinguish between the left and right, and he suddenly felt ominous in his heart, and ran to the open space not far from the side of the mountain temple according to his memory, and when he came here, the whole person was like falling into an ice cave. Because the bonfire here has been running out for a long time, the bandits and Qi Yanzhi who should have stayed here have disappeared.

"How good is this, Mr. Qi doesn't have any martial arts at all. ”

Suddenly, Mo Zhongqing couldn't help but lose his square inch and call Qi Yan's name, after a few sounds, he suddenly heard a sound behind him, and looked back with great joy, but what was waiting for was Bai Suyi.

Bai Suyi saw Mo Zhongqing's depressed face, his heart tightened, and then he looked at the messy footprints and ashes around him, and he already knew the fact that Keqing was taken away by those bandits without asking. I only heard her patiently say: "Childe calm down first, think about any other possibilities?"

Mo Zhongqing punched the trunk of the tree and said regretfully: "What else is possible, I am obviously tied very strongly!"

After saying this, Mo Zhongqing was stunned suddenly, slapped his head and said: "No, I remembered! Last night, Mr.'s eyes seemed to be a little wrong, and he also said that he would let the white falcon notify a friend to come to help, then if my guess is correct, this tie should be loosened by Mr. himself, he wants the thief to guide him and the back of it!"

Mo Zhongqing said this very quickly, but Bai Suyi listened to it word for word, paused and continued: "According to this inference, Keqing doesn't want to involve the two of us, so it will be more difficult for us to find it." ”

Mo Zhongqing listened, frowned and paced back and forth frequently, he naturally knew this truth, regardless of whether this inference was correct or not, even if this was the case, Qi Yanzhi still couldn't escape the layers of unknown dangers, because there were too many uncertain factors, such as whether that friend was always following Qi Yanzhi? Will the two be outnumbered? The most important thing is that Qi Yanzhi just used the white falcon to inform him last night, how could that person happen to be nearby? If not, wouldn't Qi Yanzhi be slaughtered by others?

Thinking of this, Mo Zhongqing's body was stunned for no reason, but he calmed down in an instant. Don't panic in case of trouble, don't mess up in danger, he is the advice of Master Mo Xing from time to time, and now he should obviously be calm enough.

"Follow me. ”

Suddenly, Mo Zhongqing paused, turned around and grabbed Bai Suyi and walked back quickly.

When the two arrived at the temple, they saw that Mo Zhongqing had entered the door and started to light a fire unhurriedly, and then took out dry food and handed it to him, and said slowly: "It's Zhongqing's fault, I slept too hard last night." Come, anyway, fill your stomach first, and then Miss Bai, you wait here for the friend that Mr. said, I'll go to Mr. Xun first, and we'll go our separate ways. ”

"No way!"

Bai Suyi categorically refused, and seeing Mo Zhongqing's stunned face, he couldn't help biting his lip and said hurriedly: "I mean that the two of them will go together to take care of it......! What if it is really as Gongzi expected, Keqing's friend has already left with Keqing, and you let me wait here for a woman in vain, what if those bandits go and return again? Anyway, I have to go with you. ”

Bai Suyi's words were urgent, and although his expression was cowardly, his attitude was very resolute.

Mo Zhongqing subconsciously touched his nose and compromised: "It's Zhongqing who didn't think about it, then let's go together, but the white girl needs to promise me to protect myself first when I am in danger!" Bai Suyi heard him say something sincere, and thought about planning for himself everywhere, and couldn't help but agree softly, and hurriedly buried his head in eating the dry food in his hand.

After the two of them finished eating hastily, they went on the road to find someone. The breeze blows in the mountain temple, leaving ash all over the ground.

When the time came, the fog gradually dissipated, the sunlight returned to the ridge of the eaves, and there was really a person waiting for someone in the dilapidated mountain temple. On this man's shoulder stood a white falcon with a fierce demeanor, and the falcon's eyes were bright. And with the others, although they were wearing blue robes and satin, the texture was extraordinary, but the look on his face was already drunk, and he couldn't distinguish things, and finally managed to fall to the ground and fall asleep in the temple, so shocked that the white falcon immediately flapped his wings and spun up to the house, abandoning him.

If the two of them saw this scene, they didn't know if they would regret their original choice.

Besides, Mo and Bai first came to the place where they fought last night to search for traces, except for Jin Biaowu, who had turned into charred black powder, the two only found five waist knives, and there were no other clues. As a last resort, Mo Zhongqing held the handle of the knife and carved it on the ground: "This March is the day, and the image arises when the time comes, the waist knife is gold, and five are singular." Chentu fire, earth gold, mountains also, and the singular belongs to yang, open fire also, so the mountain fire hexagram. This hexagram is like the outer Chinese inner void, saying that the terrain should refer to the valley, the Hua can be complicated, and the complicated eyes are chaotic, so you need to find a hidden valley on the outside. Mo Zhongqing muttered to himself, his voice was very low, but Bai Suyi on the side of him listened carefully, and only then did he speak out when he saw him: "Are you asking for directions for divination? In the past, I saw that those people who used copper coins and the like to make divination, why did you use these waist knives to make hexagrams?"

Seeing her ask like this, Mo Zhongqing couldn't help but smile and responded: "The copper coin is some kind of elephant, and the waist knife is also an elephant." The family teacher once said that the hexagram is to capture a trace of the phenomenon of heaven and earth, so all things in the world can be used as a hexagram, and the hexagram is the phenomenon that all things can express, which is complicated and inhumane wisdom can be poorly known, so my practice is just a dead horse as a live horse doctor, not necessarily accurate. ”

Mo Zhongqing said that seeing Bai Suyi thoughtful, he couldn't help but sell a pass and said: "According to the hexagram, we have to go to the mountains to find a water source." ”

Bai Suyi was stunned for a moment, and said in surprise: "Water source, didn't you say that you want to find the valley?"

Mo Zhongqing sneered: "Divination is divination after all, I just said that it is not accurate, let alone me, a fledgling junior." Therefore, combined with Mr. Qi's "Jianxuanlu", the stream mostly goes down from the valley, and the stream has a sound, and the nearby grass and trees are more bright, whether it is listening or seeing, it is much more convenient than looking for the secret valley passage, isn't it?" As soon as the words fell, Bai Suyi had already comprehended and said: "In this way, it is enough to prove that if there are people living on the mountain, it must be closer to the stream, so it is convenient to access, isn't it?"

After Bai Suyi finished speaking with a smile, he suddenly felt that his tone was brisk and quite harmonious, and the taste of the husband and wife singing with him added a little intimacy invisibly, and he turned his head and pretended to look at the scenery from afar to hide the reverie in his heart, that Mo Zhongqing touched his nose, and his heart was also inexplicably moved, but it was soon replaced by the anxiety of looking for Qi Yanzhi.

In this way, when the two of them had nothing to say all the way, they stopped and looked for a hidden path, and before they knew it, more than two hours had passed. And just as the sun was setting in the west, Shi found a trickling stream from top to bottom.

The two of them were happy, looked at each other and smiled, and then went up the stream, and when they reached the end, they found that the mountain wall blocked the way, and several mountain springs overflowed from the cracks in the cliff wall and merged into the waterhole below, and the stream came down from a gap in this waterhole. Depending on the situation, the wall of the pond should be excavated manually, but there is no way to do it after several searches.

"Did you misestimate yourself?"

Mo Zhongqing didn't believe it, and he didn't want to give up, so he asked Bai Suyi to rest on the spot, but he was struggling to think about a good plan with his back to the mountains and rocks.
