Shen Yi drank porridge while looking at the wine hall carefully.

Traces of last night's fierce battle can still be seen everywhere, but the floor has been cleaned, and although the doors and windows have not been repaired, they have tried to tidy up as much as possible. Thinking that Wu San and Liuhuai didn't sleep all night, it really took a little effort to clean everything up, and this hot porridge and flatbread were also made in a hurry. Looking at Wu San again, standing at Ah Yue's table, still protecting his disabled left hand on his chest, and diligently persuading him to eat and take care of him, it seems that nothing has happened to his small shop at all. Just looking at his humble smile and fat and clumsy body, who would have thought that he would be a supreme master?

Ah Yue lowered her head, not paying attention to Wu San's diligence at all, as if she was preoccupied, maybe she was thinking about the six fingers of the left hand of the rescuer who suddenly appeared last night.

Not only was Shen Yi looking at Wu San carefully, but Liu Qingyun followed his gaze for a long time, and then leaned close to his ear and whispered, "Are you suspicious of him?"

Shen Yi turned his head to look at him and shook his head.

Last night, the masked man's left hand showed six fingers, only Shen Yi and Ah Yue saw it, and no one else knew anything about it.

Ou Jingtian looked at the porridge bowl in front of him, and suddenly interjected: "The masked man's martial arts last night came from the same source as the Moonlight Clan. ”

What kind of person is Ou Jingtian? What kind of person is Shen Yi? Just looking at Wu San's figure and steps, they are almost certain that the masked man last night is Wu San, but they don't know why he appeared in a mask, and they don't know what his relationship with the Moonlight Clan is. Looking at Ah Yue and Dark Night's attitude, although they have been going back and forth to this inn for many years, they only treat Wu San as an ordinary innkeeper, and they don't seem to have anything closer to each other. But if there is really no connection between them, why is the look in Wu San's eyes when he looks at Ah Yue and Dark Night is very different from others? How can his martial arts path be the same as Ah Yue and Dark Night? Why did he not hesitate to take the risk to show up last night to save Ah Yue?

Liu Qingyun couldn't bear it, so he waited to get up.

Shen Yi grabbed him and asked in a low voice, "What are you going to do?"

"Drag that Wu San over and ask him clearly. Liu Qingyun said.

"No, there is no conclusive evidence, so don't startle the snake. Shen Yi said.

Liu Qingyun looked back at him carefully and asked, "Don't you have something else to hide from me, why have you become so restrictive?"

Before Shen Yi could speak, Ou Jingtian on the side had already stood up, his eyes did not look at Shen Yi, but the words were obviously for Shen Yi to hear, "There are no officials or officials under the control, once anyone is found to be related to Li Lilong's death, no one will be left under the Qibao Knife!" After he finished speaking, he took Gong Qianshan and Li Xiaoli away.

Liu Qingyun looked at Ou Jingtian's distant back, then looked at Shen Yi, and said, "Do you think Wu San will be the murderer of Li Lilong?"

Shen Yi lowered his head and took a sip of porridge, but did not answer, as if he hesitated, and said after a long time: "I don't know." ”

Liu Qingyun was indignant, but he also knew that there was too much involved in this matter, so he had to be patient, treat a big cake as an angry opponent, bite one bite after another, and keep finding fault and arguing with Hua Susu.

Shen Yi drank the porridge, leaned back in the chair, protected his right arm with his left hand, and listened to Liu Qingyun and Hua Susu's words and swords, while secretly using his skills to drive away poison and heal his injuries. His internal strength is only 30% left, and he only hopes that through diligent practice, he can recover more skills as soon as possible. Fortunately, he already has deep internal strength, and the exercises he has practiced have a strong self-generating force, and his progress is quite rapid.

After the assassination of the Western Xia killers that night, everything seemed to be back to normal. The doors and windows of the inn were repaired, Wu San sat behind the counter and played the abacus from morning to night, Liuhuai took a nap by the housing pillar when he was empty, and the residents of the town still came and went to ask Ah Yue to treat the sick and save people.

Ou Jingtian took Gong Qianshan and Li Xiaoli to go out to the town every day to find out the traces of the murderer. Liu Qingyun and Hua Susu still disagreed, so they quarreled. And Shen Yi's injuries are getting better day by day, sitting at the table by the window of the wine hall all day long, looking outside, and then looking inside, playing with a cup of tea in his hand, whether to drink it or not, looking calm and calm on the outside, but thinking in his heart: "What is the person who made the appointment waiting for? Why did he refuse to show up for a long time? And the suspect related to Li Lilong's case was almost ready to come out, and that person knew that his identity was exposed, why didn't he run away or continue to carry out other actions?"

Liu Qingyun was very anxious, and every time he looked at Shen Yi, he thought: "This kid is full of ghost ideas, and he is tight-lipped like a bottle, he doesn't say a word more, and always persuades me to take Su Su away." Hmph, the more you beat around the bush and want to send us away, the more dangerous the situation is, the third master, I won't let you succeed, and you won't leave this inn alone if you are killed. But then again, what the hell is this kid waiting for?"

Two days passed like this, and if it weren't for the fact that the people of the Moonlight Clan came to report to Ah Yue several times a day about the changes in the strange devices that were placed in various parts of the town to detect celestial phenomena, it seemed that the life of Qiongta Town could have been so dull that people almost forgot that in the near future, there would be an abnormal sandstorm coming, and the entire Qiongta Town would be in danger of extinction at any time.

At noon on this day, the black-clothed people of the Moonlight Clan hurriedly rushed into Wu San's inn, rudely brushed aside the townspeople surrounding Ah Yue, and leaned into her ear and said, "High Priest, today's measuring bowl has changed, and the sand and dust on the water surface are three points more than usual. ”

Ah Yue raised her head, her eyes lit up, and said, "You continue to go back and observe, and report to me at any time." She turned her head and called the people of the Light Clan for a few months, and whispered a few words. Several clansmen immediately hurried out of the inn.

In the evening, Ah Yue went to Shen Yi's room to change the medicine for him. She has been changing the medicine for Shen Yi for several days to treat her injuries, she is very punctual and careful, but she rarely speaks, and there seem to be a thousand words in her eyes, but she can't say a word.

Although she was wearing gloves, her method of healing injuries was light and skillful, and she wrapped the wound for Shen Yi to change the dressing, thought about it, and said, "The sandstorm is coming, and it will not exceed the past two days." She still didn't seem used to talking to Shen Yi, every time she didn't wait for the words to come out, her cheeks turned red first, her eyes wandered, and she was infinitely shy, just like the proud and majestic high priest she usually showed in front of outsiders.

Shen Yi looked up at her and asked, "Are you sure?"

"Sure. Ah Yue avoided his gaze, her cheeks still flushed, but her tone was firm.

"How do you prepare for prevention in the town of Jonta, and if necessary, ask the high priest to come down and we will do our best to help. ”

"My people have all been arranged, you ...... You should recuperate in peace. She suddenly remembered something, lowered her head, bit her lip with her fine white and neat teeth, and said softly: "You don't have to call me high priest, call me ......" She seemed to gasp with difficulty, her voice trembled a little, and continued: "You...... It's okay for you to call me Ah Yue. ”

"Miss Ah Yue. Shen Yi didn't think about anything else, and called out casually.

When Ah Yue heard this, her cheeks were even more bright red, and she was shy and happy.

"Do your clansmen come to Qiongta Town every year to help resist the sandstorm?" asked Shen Yi.

Seeing that he had changed the subject, Ah Yue breathed a sigh of relief, but was a little disappointed, barely calmed down, and said: "Yes, we have lived in this desert for three generations, helping the local townspeople resist sandstorms, and also helping to build water conservancy and cure diseases and save people. ”

Shen Yi seemed to be just gossiping, and asked a lot about the origin of the Moonlight Clan.

It's a pity that Ah Yue doesn't know much about the things of her predecessors, only saying that since her parents died when she was a child, she and her brother continued to live in this desert land with the Moonlight Clan, and continued to help the people in the desert survive in a cruel environment. According to her, the ancestors of the Moonlight clan were originally from the Jiangnan clan, and only because they participated in the rebellion were exiled to this desert by the imperial court, and stayed for nearly a hundred years and never returned to their hometown.

The night was dark, and Ah Yue sat quietly at the table, bowing her head, but she had no intention of leaving.

Shen Yi looked at her, thinking that this moonlight clan, although it was quite suspected of pretending to be a ghost, but for decades, it has worked tirelessly to help the locals resist sandstorms, but it is also admirable.

He suddenly remembered something, and hurriedly stood up and asked, "You said that the town of Qiongta is ready to resist the arrival of the sandstorm, but what about outside the town?"

Ah Yue had never seen him in such a hurry, looked at him strangely, and said, "Of course, there is no need to prepare outside the town, we have settled all the townspeople who have stayed in the town recently, and they must not go out." ”

Shen Yi asked, "How powerful is the destructive power of this sandstorm?"

Ah Yue said: "Everywhere you pass, no one, one animal or one grass can be spared. ”

Shen Yi immediately stood up and said, "Oh no, the King of Guanbei and his iron cavalry are now stationed outside the town, and they have a ten-day appointment with me. ”

Ah Yue also got anxious and said: "As soon as the sandstorm comes, thousands of troops and horses can't resist it, so I'll call someone to notify the king of Guanbei to enter the town." ”

Shen Yi shook his head and said, "If it weren't for the power of this sandstorm in person, with the temperament of the King of Guanbei, he would never easily believe people's words, so I would have to go and persuade them myself." As he spoke, he picked up the EPYC on the table and rushed out the door.

Before he walked out of the inn, he saw Liu Qingyun and Hua Susu coming in from outside, talking and laughing.

Seeing Shen Yi's hurried expression, Liu Qingyun grabbed him and asked where he was going, and said, "That King of Guanbei is so arrogant and rude, you still go to help him, it is better to let him see the power of the sandstorm." ”

Shen Yi sighed and said: "The king of Guanbei is stationed at the border pass, his safety is related to the safety of the border pass, how can he not save it?"

Liu Qingyun said: "Okay, if you have to go, I'll go with you." ”

Hua Susu said, "I'll go too." ”

Shen Yi looked at them and said, "No, you stay here to help the townspeople resist the sandstorm." He knew Liu Qingyun's temperament too well, and without waiting for the other party to refute, he changed his mouth and said: "Besides, if you stay in the inn, you can also take care of the people here for me, in case anything happens." ”

He said very resolutely, Liu Qingyun was unwilling, but after thinking about it again, although he couldn't follow him, he could be trusted by Shen Yi and help him see a few witnesses related to the case, so he was happy again, and nodded his head full of promise. Hua Susu couldn't interject, and could only watch Shen Yi get on the horse and leave.

The night sky is like ink, the moonlight is like a flower, and there is peace all around, only the occasional chirping of small insects. How could such a calm and beautiful night be the eve of disaster?

Shen Yi urged the horse to gallop. Every jolt on the horse's back shook the wound in his right chest, but he pulled the reins in his hand, and did not relax in the slightest, but urged more urgently. Whether it is for public or private purposes, he must promptly notify the king of Guanbei to withdraw to Qiongta Town, and must not watch the elite soldiers defending the border pass be destroyed by the sandstorm.

In the quiet night, the sound of horses' hooves was very clear and loud, but he was not the only one galloping on his horse this night, and the sound of another horse's hooves came from behind him.

Shen Yi grabbed the reins and waited for the person behind him to catch up.

The person who came was also a healthy horse, and the person on the horse, with a slender figure and a white dress like a fairy, was the high priest Ah Yue.

Shen Yi quietly watched this rider approaching quickly, looking at the white clothes belt that was lifted by the wind, his heart was in a trance, and he suddenly remembered that a few days ago, he was also under the moon, standing on the city wall with Ah Yue, looking at the vast sky and the desert barrenness......

Ah Yue ran to the front of her in a blink of an eye, her cheeks were crimson, but her eyes were bright, like stars twinkling in the sky, and said, "I'll go with you." Without waiting for Shen Yi to speak, she quickly said: "I am most familiar with the environment here, and I am also familiar with sandstorms, so I will definitely help you." ”

Shen Yi looked at her and was speechless. In this ruthless and unpredictable desert, if there is one person who can help him, it is indeed Ah Yue.
