Chapter Sixty-Eight: Nebula Passes Away
Since Xuan Qi pulled out many strongholds of the Heavenly God Sect, life has been much calmer. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info Until the news came from the beggar gang, someone had seen a person who looked very much like Xia Xingyun ten years ago, and he went out of the customs to the north, which should have gone to the Xiongnu.
When Xuan Qi got the news, he was overjoyed, and immediately went north and found the witness. That person has been running an inn in Northern Xinjiang for generations, and after Xuan Qi asked carefully, sure enough, the person he saw was no different from his grandfather Xia Xingyun. After bidding farewell to the shopkeeper, Xuan Qi quickly whipped himself and went all the way to the north. Along the way, there was no news.
Seeing that it was not far from Ju Yanhai, Xuan Qi immediately decided to go to Zuoxian Wangfu to investigate, maybe there would be some gains.
That night, Xuan Qi sneaked into the palace early, but saw Helian Yinshan sitting in the hall talking to people. And sitting with Helian Yinshan was a twelve or thirteen-year-old boy, but he couldn't see his appearance clearly from a distance. Xuan Qi heard that the young man was called Helian Yinshan's grandfather, and knew that he couldn't find any useful news here, so he immediately slipped up to the roof and headed towards the backyard of the palace.
When passing by the palace garden, Xuan Qi saw a palace guard walking in from a rockery, and immediately followed curiously, but it turned out to be an underground secret room in the palace. Xuan Qi saw that there were two guards guarding the entrance of the rockery, but he couldn't get close for a while, so he immediately hid in a bush of flowers and plants, quietly waiting for the opportunity.
Soon after, several guards who had entered the rockery came out head-on, and the two guards were still carrying one person, but they couldn't see clearly in the night.
"This dead old man, after ten years, is still dead. ”
"Yes, I have never seen such a stubborn person, who has not been able to ask a fart for ten years, and wasted so much food in vain. ”
Xuan Qi followed closely behind the two guards and walked towards a portal in the back garden.
"Who?"
"It's me, I'm ordered to send this old man to the beach in Juyan to feed the birds. ”
"Oh, it's two big brothers, who are the dead?"
"It's the old man surnamed Xia. ”
Xuan Qi's head slammed, and he looked forward, and sure enough, the person who was carried by the two guards had white hair, but he looked a little like his grandfather Xia Xingyun. Xuan Qiqiang held back his tears and rushed forward quickly.
"Who?"
In the midst of the shouting, the long sword in Xuan Qi's hand was already swinged, and the head of one of the guards was cut off with a single sword. The other guard was taken aback, let go of the corpse in his hand, and reached for the waist knife at his waist. Xuan Qi stretched out his hand and copied it, just hugging the corpse that was about to fall to the ground, and looked at it, but it was his grandfather Xia Xingyun.
Xuan Qi roared wildly, and he was already in tears, but he didn't expect that he hadn't seen him for more than ten years, but his grandfather was dead. Xuan Qi, who was furious, held Xia Xingyun's body with one hand, and the long sword in his hand was merciless, and he had already split a guard who rushed forward in half. The other two guards guarding the door only shouted, but they did not dare to step forward.
Xuan Qi tore the clothes of a guard lying on the ground, put Xia Xingyun on his back, tied it tightly with a strip of cloth, and strode towards the portal. The two guards guarding the door saw that Xuan Qi's face was full of hideousness, and they didn't dare to stop it, and retreated to both sides. At this time, many of the palace guards who heard the sound also rushed over, screaming and rushing towards Xuan Qi.
At this time, Xuan Qi kicked heavily on the wooden door, and the wooden door was torn apart, and the broken wood splashed everywhere. Xuan Qi's footsteps did not stop, and he had already rushed out of the palace. The palace guards behind him followed closely behind Xuan Qi and chased after him. Countless torches lit up, but more palace guards were alarmed and rushed out of the palace.
Xuan Qi carried Xia Xingyun on his back, but his actions were affected, and he was soon caught up by the pursuers behind him. Xuan Qi shouted, turned around, and rushed into the group of guards like a hungry tiger pounced on a sheep. The furious long sword, everywhere it went, flesh and blood flew sideways, and immediately forced the chasing palace guards to retreat. Xuan Qi turned and rushed forward, turning into an alley. When the pursuers behind him reached the entrance of the alley, Xuan Qi had already rushed out of the alley and disappeared.
Amid the shouting and neighing of horses, countless Hun soldiers surrounded the town by the sea in Juyan from all directions, carefully searching inch by inch. Xuan Qi was hugging Xia Xingyun's body and crying bitterly at this time, not thinking about how to break through at all. The Hun soldiers approached closer and closer, and finally found Xuanqi on the corner of the street.
At this time, Xuan Qi had already tied Xia Xingyun's body to the horse, and he was also sitting on the horse. Looking at the approaching Hun soldiers, Xuan Qi shouted, and the horse suddenly rushed forward, already rushing into the crowd of Hun soldiers. The Hun soldiers shouted and avoided one after another, and in an instant, Xuan Qi rushed over. Xuan Qi quickly whipped his horse and rushed straight towards the outside of the town, and soon rushed out of the town.
The whining horn sounded from behind, and soon after, Xuan Qi, who had already rushed out for several miles, heard countless horses' hooves, thinking that the Hun military camps around the town had already dispatched cavalry. Xuan Qi stopped and listened carefully to the direction where the sound of the horse's hooves came from, and immediately turned the horse to the east.
After walking a short distance, there was no trace of cavalry in the east, but I saw that it was flat in front of me, and there was nothing to cover it. Xuan Qi couldn't help but secretly complain, on this prairie, where did he want to flee to? The sound of the horse's hooves behind him became louder and louder, so that Xuan Qi could only choose to ride his horse forward. In this dark night, fortunately, the grassland is very flat, and there is no fear of the horse stumbling.
By daybreak, there was no sound of the hoofs of the pursuers. The white horse under Xuanqi's crotch was already out of breath and had to stop. After the horses were full, Xuan Qi stepped on the horse's back and let the horse walk forward slowly.
At ten o'clock in the afternoon, Xuan Qi saw a small forest from a distance, and immediately rode forward. After arriving at the grove, Xuan Qi endured the heartache and untied Xia Xingyun from his horse and placed it on a dead branch. Looking at the raging flames, Xuan Qi couldn't help but think of the bits and pieces between him and Xia Xingyun. The two didn't spend much time together, but now, his grandfather has been separated from him forever, which makes Xuan Qi cry again.
In the evening, Xuan Qifang left the grove and let the horse walk slowly towards the south.
On the second day, Xuanqi arrived at a small town, but saw countless Hun soldiers in the town setting up a card check. Xuan Qi immediately bypassed the town and continued to the south. I didn't go far, but in the distance, I saw the dust raised by countless cavalry. Xuan Qi couldn't help but smile bitterly, knowing that it was impossible to walk in the direction of the south, and he had to continue to the east at the moment. Xuanqi, who hadn't eaten for two days, endured the hunger in his belly and rode his horse towards the east.
