Chapter Forty-Six: The Moon Goes Down in the Mountains

In a small mountain forest at the junction of Dongzhou and Yunzhou, the night is thick, and there are few people. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

Although it was night, the moonlight was in full bloom, and in the forest path here, Li Qingyun and the two brothers were hurrying with their bags on their backs.

Although the road in the forest was narrow, it was quite smooth, and Li Qingyun walked with his bags on his back without saying a word.

Qingyun on the side carried his bow and crossbow and a small burden that was much lighter than his senior brother, and he moved forward step by step.

After being silent for a long time, Qingyun followed the moonlight to secretly look at Li Qingyun's calm face, and tentatively spoke.

"Senior brother... Let's rest.... While.... Bar... You see... It's all so... It's late.... The road is dark... Wait a minute.... Fell and injured ... Isn't it... Finish. ”

gasping for breath, Qingyun at this time seemed to be tired, as if he had been on the road for a long time.

Li Qingyun turned his head sideways as he walked, glancing at the former with eyes that were colder than moonlight, and did not speak.

"Senior brother... Why do you think we're going to travel at night? How nice it would be to walk again in the morning. Qingyun said tirelessly.

"Are you really tired?" Li Qingyun said without being salty or indifferent.

"yes... You see I'm panting when I say something, can you not get tired..."Qingyun nodded vigorously.

"Okay, you can go back now, it's much shorter, and you can rest as you like when you go back. ”

As soon as these words came out, Qingyun seemed to be a lot more honest, shrunk his head and didn't dare to speak again.

"How about it, if you are tired, go back, I don't object, anyway, this place is quite close to the sect, and it is still far from Dayuan Mansion. This time it was Li Qingyun's turn to not give up.

"That's... Or forget it... I suddenly feel a little better... Let's move on.... Isn't I worried that it would be easy to have an accident on the road at night..."Qingyun changed his expression, looking like he was extremely worried about the safety of the two.

"Well, do you dare to say this?" Li Qingyun gritted his teeth a little.

Qingyun's kid knew which pot he couldn't open and mention, so he quickly covered his mouth and hurried away.

Seeing that this kid was still acquainted, the former just snorted coldly and didn't blame him anymore

Before, the two of them estimated that the journey from Qingyun Sect to Dayuan Mansion would take about two days, so starting from the sect this morning, the first thing was to go to a small town not far from the mountain to buy some dry food and other things to spare.

Who knew that when he went down the mountain, he was still jumping and jumping Qingyun's face changed as soon as he arrived in the town, and he was busy saying that he was not feeling well, and at that time Li Qingyun proposed to send him back to the sect first, but the latter said that he didn't need to, he just needed to find a place to rest and breathe for a while.

Li Qingyun thought about it and agreed, found an inn to settle Qingyun, and went to the street to prepare what he needed.

However, one hour, when Li Qingyun returned to the inn after buying things, he found that Qingyun, who was originally lying on the bed resting, was gone, but the bow and crossbow that the latter carried with him were not taken away, and after another inspection, the little silver ticket that was originally left in the baggage of the inn was gone.

Li Qingyun couldn't help but be a little anxious, secretly wondering if he would be targeted after he came out, and took advantage of his absence to attack Qingyun, who was unwell.

But when he looked around, he didn't find any traces of fighting, although Qingyun's kid didn't get home, but it was impossible to be taken away silently, unless the opponent was a peerless master, but that kind of existence didn't say that they hadn't provoked it, even if they did, they wouldn't pull down their bodies to attack an unknown junior.

After thinking about it again, Li Qingyun secretly scolded the rabbit cub, pushed the door and walked out.

In the end, he finally found Qingyun who was gambling happily in a gambling house, pulled him out, and the two of them went on the road.

There was a long delay, so the two had to use the evening time to hurry. And it's not the main road, it's this kind of shortcut between the mountains.

"I tell you, if you go to the gambling house again, I will go back and tell the master that you don't know how to die when the time comes. Looking at Qingyun who was scratching his head and didn't dare to speak, Li Qingyun could only shake his head and sigh.

Qingyun, this kid is good at everything, he just loves to gamble, which is also the sequelae of sending him alone to carry out a mission, when he was still young, no one cared about him, and he was suddenly attracted to sex, and then ran out to gamble whenever he had the opportunity.

In fact, he has found it many times, and has repeatedly warned that although the frequency is not high, Qingyun will still run out to gamble from time to time, that is, he will not be discovered by the master, otherwise he would have a long memory.

"I know, senior brother, thanks to you for not telling the master, otherwise I would be finished. I'm weird, though... According to your temperament, didn't you tell the master to force me to change my ways... Why haven't you told the master for so long this time...."Qingyun scratched his head and snorted.

"Yo he, your kid is quite cheap, so I'll talk to the master when I go back this time?" Li Qingyun was also amused, and it was rare to speak in this tone.

Qingyun slapped his mouth, wondering if he really had a head pump, so he found guilt.

"Okay, I won't tell the master, but there can't be a next time, remember?" Li Qingyun's tone softened a little and admonished.

The latter nodded hurriedly, for fear that the senior brother would change his mind.

In fact, there is a reason why Li Qingyun did not report Qingyun, because as soon as he saw this kid, he would think of his younger brother, Li Mu.

Li Mu is also a gambler, when he was still in Dayuan Mansion, Li Qingyun knew that after Li Mu went back to the gambling house, he told his father Li Zhi as soon as possible, and the result was naturally that Li Zhi was furious and cleaned up Li Mu fiercely.

But after that, Li Mu not only did not repent, but intensified, and began to borrow from other people in the city when he had no money, and only borrowed and did not pay it back every time.

Most of those people with small amounts of money did not pursue it for the sake of Li Mansion's face, and the reason why more people with large amounts did not stab the matter to Li Zhi was because Li Qingyun privately helped Li Mu pay back all the money.

But Li Qingyun didn't sue Li Mu again, and since the first accusation, Li Mu no longer talked to Li Qingyun, who had been silently helping Li Mu pay off the debts he owed, until Li Qingyun was sent to Qingyun Sect three years ago, Li Mu didn't say a few words to him.

"Alas. Thinking about it, Li Qingyun sighed helplessly, I don't know how the people in the family are doing now.

"Senior brother?" Qingyun listened to the sigh and opened his mouth in confusion.

"It doesn't matter. ”

The two stopped talking and hurried away with peace of mind.

The deeper the night, the more the moonlight faded, and soon in the second half of the night, the two of them walked in the mountains for a long time, and they were almost out of the forest.

Qingyun didn't know when he had been frowning, he had always had a strange feeling in his heart, but he just couldn't say anything wrong, and he didn't find anything abnormal when he looked at his senior brother, so he just gagged his mouth and didn't speak.

Walking and walking, Qingyun didn't notice that he tripped over something, he was unstable and almost fell, Li Qingyun on the side grabbed him, and Qingyun stabilized his body.

But at the moment when he almost fell and then fell sideways, he caught a glimpse of a black shadow on the branch of a large tree behind him, and the moment he got up, the black shadow disappeared in an instant.

Qingyun chuckled in his heart, and the moment the former helped him up and the two approached, he spoke in a low voice.

"Senior brother, it seems..."

"Don't talk, keep walking. ”

Li Qingyun interrupted Qingyun's words quietly, helped him up and continued to walk forward like no one, Qingyun understood, but still couldn't help but feel vigilant.

Just as the two of them were about to squeeze through the woods, at the end of the path ahead, a crosswood blocked the end.

The obvious signal.

"Senior brother. Qingyun became serious and reached for the bow and crossbow he was carrying behind his back.

Li Qingyun covered Qingyun with one hand and motioned him to retreat, and with the other hand, he held the long sword behind his back in his hand, and said lightly.

"Which way friends are here, if it is a robbery, please show up for convenience, and we should pay some filial piety to buy the road. ”

The voice melted into darkness in the night and disappeared without a trace after a moment.

Suddenly, there was the rustle of footsteps sweeping up fallen leaves in the forest, and a moment later, more than a dozen black-clothed people appeared on both sides of the road, surrounding the two people in the road.

"Senior brother, your family has lost a lot this time..."Qingyun said with a bitter face.

"Regret, regret that you should go back now. ”

"I don't, if I don't go to my brother's house to make up for it, then I won't be too much of a loss. ”

As the two spoke, the group of men in black were not idle, and a metallic sound of swords slashing sounded, and suddenly the cold moonlight reflected in the forest flashed.

Li Qingyun stuck the scabbard in his hand on the ground, the scabbard was the simple scabbard left by the old man last time, and the cracks that he cut out had not been repaired.

He drew his long sword violently, and his momentum was unusual.

"Two... Four.... Six... Brother.. There are thirteen in total, I'll help you solve those three, and I'll leave the rest to you, don't thank me. Qingyun nodded quietly on the side, and then said righteously.

"Little rabbit cub...."Li Qingyun laughed and scolded quietly when he heard it, and turned to face the group of black-clothed people who were not good, "Everyone, the road is facing the sky, why bother...."

Before the words fell, the silent roar of thirteen weapons struck at the two of them, cutting through the night.

"Bastard, wait for someone to finish speaking!"

Li Qingyun said as he looked out of shape, and his sword was like a dragon.

At this time, in a mansion in Dayuan Mansion, a black-clothed guy walked briskly in the corridor, walked to the door of a room, and knocked on the door three times, and a lazy voice came from the door, and he pushed the door in.

The room is very large, but there are no superfluous furnishings, behind the curtain that separates the space, is a carved bath half a room in size, and two charming maids are sprinkling flower petals in the bath.

The water temperature in the bath was so good, the water vapor slowly rose, and the long hair that was spread out leaned against the edge of the bath, and the black-haired owner turned his back to the little guy who entered the door, humming an unknown minor tune softly.

"Young master. ”

The little guy only dared to stay outside the curtain, so he bent down and saluted.

"What's the matter? ”

The voice of the youth sounded, still with a melody in a minor key.

Before the little girl could speak, the young man waved his hand, and the two maids on the edge of the bath put down the flower basket and got up and walked out, and when they opened the door curtain, they smiled at the little girl, and the coquettish smile and the white and tender skin under the tulle made the little girl breathe rapidly.

"Say it. After the two maids had left, the young man leaned against the edge of the bath and did not look back, and then spoke.

"Young Master, the people from Yunzhou have already arranged it, and they should be able to catch those two little guys from Qingyun Sect. The little guy clenched his fists again and opened his mouth to report.

"Should it?" said the young man slowly.

"No... Yes, it must be...."The little guy knew that he was speechless, and hurriedly said.

"How's the arrangement in the city?"

"Everything is in order, just wait for the time to be right in two days. It's just...."The little guy hesitated and didn't dare to continue.

"But what?" said the young man's voice, with a slight smile.

"Lin Rusheng and Yue Xiaofei have no news so far, and the people sent out have no results. The little guy thought for a moment, but gritted his teeth and said.

The young man did not speak, one arm was raised from the bath, and the drops of water fell down the lines of the muscles of his arm, and he twisted a petal in his hand, slowly rubbing and playing.

"The little one is going to check it out... will definitely give the young master an explanation. The little guy wiped the sweat from his face, and his voice trembled a little.

"No need," said the young man, tossing the petals back into the pool.

"Eighty percent is Bai Xiaosheng's movements behind his back, these guys are really unfed beasts. There was a smile in the young man's tone.

"That.... It's better to call someone..."The little guy suggested.

"Forget it, as long as there is no accident, soon in this realm, no matter whether he is a hundred Xiaosheng or a thousand Xiaosheng, he will not be able to make waves. ”

The young man stood up as he spoke, his long hair draped over his shoulders, and a large scorpion tail tattoo extending from his back was visible on his well-defined back.

The young man took a black robe by the pool, draped it over his body, and walked out of the bath.

"Here, soon, it will be the world of blackthorns. ”

In the night, the laughter of the young man sounded faintly.
