Chapter 19: The Uninvited Guest
It was another calm night, with a dark fragrance floating and silence.
Ah Yi stood alone in the courtyard of the inn, leaning on the railing, not knowing what he was thinking, maybe it was the mission of this trip, or maybe it was the future.
Slowly, a blue-blue feather fell into her sight. A Yi stretched out his hand to catch it, his brows furrowed, and a bad premonition arose, "Luan Bird in the country......?" Unexpectedly, you have chased here. ”
Taking advantage of the thick night, a layer of black mist rose around her. From time to time, there are birds singing in the sky hovering, which is the Qingluan of the old country. Suddenly, with the sound of swords breaking through the air, a man in Xuanyi who only covered half of his eyes suddenly appeared, carrying a sharp blade, approaching Ah Yu with the power of a ghost. Ah Yan's eyes flashed, and he quickly flew away to dodge, and there seemed to be gusts of wind around him, which was extremely dangerous.
Seeing that the blow missed, the man in Xuanyi was not in love with the battle, so he immediately stopped the offensive, pointed to the ground on tiptoe, and landed leisurely opposite Ah Yu. The glowing thorn sword flashed a light and shadow, and it instantly closed into the man's sleeve. The man was silent and said coldly, "Senior sister, don't come unharmed." ”
Ah Yi looked the people up and down, and his eyes were cold, "It's been thousands of years since I left the Southern Wilderness, and you still refuse to let me go?"
The man seemed to laugh when he heard this, but half of his eyes were not warm, "Senior sister, since you left my country, you should know about today's disaster. Born as a man in the country and died as the soul of the country, since you have committed treason, you should be punished here. But Senior Brother never expected that now that your skills have improved so much, you can avoid my thorn sword. ”
The lips under the veil hooked slightly, and Ah Yan's fingers moved slightly, "I naturally know the rules of the country, as for ...... Can you kill me, you might as well give it a try. I'm no longer the soft and weak little disciple I used to be. ”
The man in Xuanyi looked at each other coldly, as if he was calculating in his heart, standing still in the misty black mist. Suddenly, there was a fragrant wind, and in just a moment, the fragrance quickly dissipated. The man sneered slowly, everything ...... It's all under control.
Suddenly! Ah Yi frowned, turned around, and took a few poisonous needles.
A woman in Tsing Yi slowly emerged from behind her, and said unhurriedly, "I haven't seen you for many years, Senior Sister Ayu's skills have increased a lot, do you say yes?"
The man in Xuanyi didn't answer when he heard this, and an inexplicable smile appeared on his lips.
Ah Yi frowned, only to feel some fishy sweetness in his throat, and his hands and feet began to soften. She suddenly realized something, and looked at the man in Xuanyi with a torch, her eyes like a torch, "I can't imagine that you have used the treasure of the country to deal with me, and you can't help but look down on me if you make such a big move." ”
A cold light flashed in his eyes, and the Xuanyi Killer did not hesitate when he saw this, and the shadow sword in his sleeve came out of its sheath and stabbed at the woman like a swift wind, "Senior sister, everything is your own fault, don't blame me." ”
As soon as the man in Xuanyi finished speaking, the woman in Tsing Yi looked cold, put her hands into her sleeves, and a smile appeared at the corner of her mouth, "It's been so many years, let Senior Sister and I take a look, Senior Sister A's kung fu has grown a little, don't let me down." ”
Although Ah Yi dodged flexibly and made a few moves, he was finally defeated by the two of them, and his body became more and more weak.
"Heh, I really didn't expect Senior Sister A Yi to be able to carry it until now, for the sake of being in the same door for many years, I will send you one last ride!" After that, the woman in Tsing Yi muttered the mantra in her mouth, and Ah Yi was suddenly startled in her heart, and when she looked down, she saw that all sides were already arrayed, and a fishy sweet liquid came from her throat, her eyes suddenly became in a trance, and her physical strength was exhausted and fell down.
Before she could hit the ground, the man in the dark robe flew forward, raised his sword, and vowed to kill her.
A Yi thought that he was a dead end, the two masters in the country were here, with their own skills, it was no problem to make a draw, but they used the poison in the country, and this time it would be more auspicious.
She can't die, at least...... Before completing the task.
I can only fight to the death. She was ruthless, and a strange power spread from her body, and black flowers gradually appeared on her arms, foreheads, and half of her face covered by a veil. She can change from a child who has been bullied to what she is now, and she can live a good life, she will definitely not die here so easily.
The man in Xuanyi didn't seem to expect it, but he also reacted. Today, no matter what, she has to be solved, and I can't take care of much. He didn't stop the fierce attack, but just gestured with his eyes to the junior sister who silently thought that the victory was in his hands behind Ah Yan.
She didn't know, moved her fingers, and slapped Ah Yan's back impartially.
A black shadow flashed, and the sword left the hand of the man in Xuanyi. The woman in Tsing Yi also slapped into the air, and the two stopped in place.
A deep voice sounded from the dark night, "The two of you work together, are you too deceit......ful?" Are you so cheeky?"
Looking for prestige, I saw that in the open space on one side, a black-robed man in a black robe gently hugged the weak A Yi with his left hand, holding the sword in his right hand, and looking at the sword body.
The woman in Tsing Yi gritted her teeth and wanted to come up to grab people, but she was stopped by the man in Xuanyi with one hand, he lowered his voice and said, "Don't act rashly, he is not a human ......"
The wind seemed to hear it, and raised his eyebrows, but he didn't speak. But a fire has already ignited in his heart. Who are you not human beings? You are not human beings! I ...... Oh yes, I'm not human.
The man in the dark robe softened his face and said with a smile, "I don't know what your Excellency has to do with this woman?
With a flick of his hand, he threw the sword back, "We don't have a relationship. I don't care who she is. I just can't get used to seeing you bullying the less. Why don't you do this, for the sake of fairness, you will count me as one if you fight, and then her life will be all up to you. How?"
The man in Xuanyi took the sword and didn't make a sound, only feeling a faint pain in his heart, this feeling seemed to have started when Ah Yu changed, and after a little luck, the pain deepened. I don't know the cause of the pain, and I don't know the details of the people who are killed halfway, so it's better to be careful and think long-term.
The woman in Tsing Yi seemed to be the same, and she looked at her senior brother with a little more horror in her eyes. The two looked at each other, flew away, and no longer paid attention to Ah Yi and Borrowing Wind on the side, anyway, the coming day is long, and there are more opportunities.
After the two left, they let go of Ah Yi by the wind, and his face was a little gloomy. Ah Yi casually wiped the blood from the corners of his mouth with his hand, lowered his head, and avoided the gaze of the wind, "You want to ask me...... Where do I come from?"
"I'm not interested in your background. All I care about is the Six Lingpei, and I won't let you die until its spiritual power is found. ”
"Oh, really...... Thank you very much for that. Her voice trembled slightly, probably because she was injured and weak.
He believed that those mutations were absolutely very human, and those people with such abilities would definitely be able to heal their injuries, and besides, her details were not simple, and it was best to stay away as much as possible before determining whether she was friend or foe.
But the wind didn't know that the poison and injuries in her were far less than his distant back, and in the night wind, like a knife, it didn't enter his heart.
She went back to the house alone, those black flowers did not disperse, but became more and more intense, she hugged her head, shrunk in the corner, the cold through the bones came from the body, the poison in the country, the backlash of the forbidden arts, the indifference of the old people, intertwined, painful, heart-rending pain.
She wanted to cry, but she couldn't shed a single tear, she wanted to laugh, but she couldn't hold the corners of her mouth. So be it, when the first rays of sunlight shine in tomorrow, she will still be the cold, resolute and resolute A Yu.
......
In the bustling street market, the signboard of the building is particularly conspicuous, and the building is as lively as usual.
In the spacious incense pavilion on the top floor of the Yunyun Building, the woman in snow clothes leaned quietly on the chair and played with poison, and said lightly to the person opposite, "I don't know what the prince is doing here?"
Opposite her sat a man in Xuanyi, with only one eye visible under the mask, looking at each other coldly like ice, "You are the owner of Yunxiang Workshop, Twilight Cicada?"
The woman put down the poison when she heard the voice, "Exactly." Her gaze revealed a hint of anger.
A faint incense began to emanate from the pavilion, and the strange fragrance wafted in the room, and the man's pupils shrank slightly, and his eyes flashed with alertness. The next moment, the man's figure spread out like a black mist, and the shadow was like a ghost, only to hear the sound of the Jing Sword coming out, and the cyan sword burst through all the poisonous gas in front of him with a bang. The sky was bright in the pavilion for a while, and the warm sun shone in through the dappled windows that shook open, and the poisonous smoke that escaped from all directions brewed out a curling shadow......
The man in Xuanyi withdrew his hand, slowly condensed into an entity, and looked at the snow-clothed woman in front of him with a look of appreciation, "Earlier, I heard that the poisonous incense technique of the owner of Yunxiang Workshop is unique in the world, and today I am fortunate to receive the teaching, and the strength of the owner of the workshop should not be underestimated." The strange fragrance just now must be a terrifying bone-eating smoke. It is rumored that those who smell this incense will turn into a pool of blood in three moments, and it is a bit rude to use such a cruel method to entertain the owner's guests. ”
The woman's eyes flashed with a hint of surprise, but it was only for a moment, and then she smiled, "Your Excellency is so skillful, since you have passed my test, let's talk about it...... What deal do you want to negotiate?"
The corners of his lips hooked up a cold smile, and the man in Xuanyi put his fingers together, pinched a piece of drawing paper from his arms, and shot forward. The paper pierced the wooden table with a bit of hardness, but it softened again in an instant, and slowly spread out on the tabletop, revealing a woman with a veil, only a pair of bright eyes exposed.
The man's eyes were dark, and he opened his lips indifferently, "This transaction is ...... Kill this person with the power of the owner. ”
She glanced at the drawing paper lightly, "With Your Excellency's skills, you actually want to find me Yunxiangfang to kill people, then this woman must not be simple," paused, and said with a smile, "I don't know, what reward does Your Excellency plan to give me?"
The man in Xuanyi raised his eyebrows when he heard this, and there was a bit of banter in his eyes, "This woman's identity, after the owner takes over this business, I will explain it in detail." As for the reward...... the man suddenly chuckled, walked to the table and sat down, lifted the teapot and poured two lamps with his hand, and raised his eyes to look at the woman in front of him, "This dragon well is good, smell its fragrance without drinking, it is really good." If the owner is free this time, he will discuss it with him after a drink, how about it?"
She leaned lazily on the chair and slowly picked up the teacup and savored it, "I don't seem to be doing ordinary business in the building, so I'm too lazy to say some polite words to you." Silver and gold are nothing to us, and we do not know how much they will be rewarded...... But what kind of rarity?"
The man in Xuanyi raised his eyebrows, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, "I heard earlier that the building is divided into three squares. Yunxiang, flowing blades, scattered Gu, each into a faction, the forces are intertwined and contend with each other, and the situation is extremely delicate. Seeing a moment of strangeness flashing in Twilight's eyes, he paused, and then said, "If you help our country kill this person, not to mention the reward, my country is also willing to make friends with Yunxiangfang." But if the owner of the shop does not know the severity of the refusal...... I'm afraid I'm going to be attacked by the enemy at that time......"
The woman slowly drank another cup of tea, and after a long time, leaned over and put away the painting on the table, and said with a smile, "This is busy...... I help. ”
