Seeing that Lu Yunli shirked it, Lu Muran didn't force it, and said: "If you go on the road alone, be careful in everything." ”

At this time, a young girl rushed in outside, threw herself on Lu Muran, and shouted: "You only treat me as a child, and you can hide it from me if something so big happens." If there is anything wrong with you, my mother and Lu Han, who will I rely on!" said a lot of words in one breath, raised his head, looked at Lu Muran, his eyes were red, and his little face was also blown red by the cold wind.

Lu Muran asked: "Why did you run back, didn't you tell you to wait for my news honestly at Qianjimen!"

Girl: "I was in a panic at Qianjimen, where people were just tinkering with their own mechanisms, and someone made a good thing and used it to show me, I only looked at it a few times and then dismantled it, and then assembled it, and I learned it myself." Those people were so attached to the finer things that I couldn't stand it, so I ran back. When I came back, I realized that you had such a big thing to hide from me. ”

This girl is Lu Muran's daughter, Lu Han's sister, named Lu Bo, nineteen years old, melon seed face, handsome face, slightly thick lips, stiff nose bridge, eyes slippery and straight, obviously a very clever person. Lu Bo inherited his father's intelligence, but unfortunately his physique was very poor, just like ordinary weak women. Lu Muran saw that her physique was unable to practice martial arts, so he sent her to Qianjimen to learn mechanism skills to defend herself. Every time I send it in less than three months, I will come back. I came back for a few days and sent it again, and it has been repeated for seven years. The head of Qianjimen is Song Xianglu's father, Lu Muran's father-in-law, who is now seventy years old, and loves Lu Bo very much, and has taught him all the skills he has mastered all his life in seven years, without the slightest reservation. With the guidance of famous teachers and their own talent and intelligence, they have learned ninety percent in five years, and the remaining one is the most difficult to learn. The trick is originally a means for the weak in martial arts to compete for strength, and if the strong also use the trick, it will become a stronger means. The highest level of the mechanism technique is to use one's own true qi to activate the mechanism, the limbs do not move, the mechanism moves, the gods and ghosts are unpredictable, and the killing is invisible. It's a pity that Lu Bo is weak and can't reach this state, so he can't study. Even so, there are few people who can compare to the tricks.

Lu Muran also had no way to treat her, after all, she was her own daughter, and she couldn't bear to have any punishment, so she sometimes reprimanded her strictly, and she regretted it very much afterwards. Now she is also nineteen years old, a slim big girl, and she has her own ideas about doing things. Then he said: "Things were too dangerous before, and you don't know martial arts, so I can only break you apart." Although the Holy Xuan Sect has been withdrawn, I don't know when it will return, and you will only increase the danger here. ”

The father and daughter said a word, and everyone was also interested and dispersed.

Lu Yunli had already returned to his room to pack his bags, and the whole room was rummaged through, and there were few clothes. I turned out the jade tiger that fell in the corner at some point, the size of a fist, although it is not a good jade, but the workmanship is fine, and the carving is vivid. Lu Yunli held it in his hand, remembering that Deng Ruihu went out to run errands five years ago, and on the way back, he passed by the jade shop and saw a set of jade tigers on the counter, a total of ten. Remembering that this year was the Year of the Tiger and the Year of Master's Natal Life, he spent all the money on his body to buy these ten jade tigers. When I came back, the master picked one of them first, and then the master also picked one, and then Lu Bo, Lu Han, Liu Wuqiao, Tang Bao, Xia Gaoqi, Hou Xiao, and Lu Yunli each took one. In the end, the remaining one was left for himself. Although this jade tiger is not worth a few dollars, it is Deng Ruihu's intention, and when he is outside, he still thinks about the people of Tianjue Mountain.

Lu Yunli was in a daze with the jade tiger in his hand, and suddenly his shoulder was slammed, and when he looked back, it was Lu Bo.

Lu Bo spoke first and said, "Is this going out again?"

Lu Yunli just said "um" softly.

Lu Bo: "How long will it take?"

Lu Yunli: "I don't know, I may not come back again." ”

Lu Bo sighed slightly and said, "I knew you would leave for a long time, but I never thought that this day would come so quickly. ”

Lu Yunli: "I didn't belong here, I will leave sooner or later, and now the rivers and lakes are in turmoil, and I have never been able to contribute to Tianjue Mountain, and I feel guilty." I hope to take this opportunity to help Master contact the great general Lan Ji to fight the enemy together. The Holy Xuan Sect withdrew because he didn't know that the master had cheated on his death, and as long as the master didn't show up in the future, it would be fine. As for the future disasters in the rivers and lakes, they can only do their best to obey the destiny of heaven. ”

Lu Bo asked, "When are you leaving?"

Lu Yunli: "Tomorrow morning." ”

Lu Bo was silent, turned around and went out.

Lu Yunli put down the jade tiger in his hand and continued to pack his bags. Liu Wuqiao returned to the Nine Gates Dart Bureau, and Xia Gaoqi bought white supplies in Bianzhou and hung them all over the sky to confuse the Holy Xuanjiao. Xia Kui returned to Beiyoudongtian, called back the dismissed guys, and Zhang Yu opened a business. Everything is in order.

Early the next morning, after breakfast, Lu Yunli packed his bags and Mo Xin, said goodbye to his master and mother, and Lu Han also instructed: "Pay attention to safety." The soup dumplings made a lot of dry food overnight, and sewed a pair of cotton shoes, all wrapped and handed them to Lu Yunli. Xia Gaoqi knew that the rivers and lakes were turbulent now, and the road was dangerous and unpredictable, so he intended to go with him, but Lu Yunli politely refused. The two looked at each other and nodded, without any extra words. I didn't see Lu Bo this morning, and I don't know where he went.

After saying goodbye to each other, they pushed open the Heavenly Gate and went down the mountain. Lu Yunli did not go down the mountain directly, but went to Deng Ruihu's grave, stood upright for a while, squatted down and opened a soil pit at the front of the stone stele, and buried the jade tiger in it. Then he bowed deeply, turned around and went down the mountain, and did not look back again.

First went to Bianzhou, and met the senior brother Liu Wuqiao at the Jiumen Dart Bureau, the two chatted for a while, and Lu Yunli asked, "Is there any whereabouts of Dongyang?"

Liu Wuqiao shook his head and said, "For more than a year, I have also inquired about many friends of TOEFL, but there has been no news. Speaking of that incident, there are also a lot of oddities, the rest of the darts are back intact, the goods are not missing, the darts are said to be Dongyang alone to drive the robbers away, and then there are more robbers to chase after them, Dongyang let the darts just run forward, do not look back, the darts run all the way for most of the day, until they entered Bianzhou. Since then, the news of Dongyang has never been heard again, and I often think about it and feel very guilty. ”

Lu Yunli was not at the scene, he didn't know the situation at the time, and everything could not be verified. Although he and Dongyang have only been together for a few months, and then settled Dongyang in the Nine Doors Dart Bureau, the two often see each other, Lu Yunli has something he doesn't understand when he practices qi, Dongyang will answer with his heart, although they get along for a short time, the relationship is very deep.

At this time, I thought about these things unintentionally, and asked for a fast horse, and did not linger long, and galloped away.

Out of the city, all the way to the north, not long after, I saw a man and a horse in front of me in the middle of the road. When I got closer, I was surprised to see that this person was Lu Bo. "Why are you here?"

Lu Bo was dressed as a man and said: "You are so bored all this way, and I happen to be fine, so I will be merciful to accompany you." ”

Lu Yunli said: "This is not an ordinary trip, but to do business, you go back quickly, the master and master of the province are worried." ”

Lu Bo was very uneasy: "They don't care about me, they all use their thoughts on Lu Han, for them, I am an outsider, life and death are not important." ”

Lu Yunli could also see that although Lu Bo often ran back to Tianjue Mountain, he was not close to the master and the mother, but most of the time he was with me and Tang Bao. Even when I sometimes practiced and didn't have time to spend with her, she just sat quietly on the sidelines, neither disturbing nor leaving. Lu Yunli knew that as soon as he left, the only people who could accompany Lu Bo were soup dumplings. But Tang Bao spent most of his time with his sister, and he didn't have time to take care of Lu Bo. can also imagine how lonely Lu Bo would be on the mountain alone.

Seeing that Lu Yunli was silent and didn't speak, Lu Bo didn't know whether to agree to bring himself or not. looked at Lu Yunli's expression nervously.

Lu Yunli thought for a moment and said, "This road is dangerous and abnormal, and my martial arts are far inferior to Senior Brother and Master, but I am afraid that I will not be able to protect you if something happens." ”

Lu Bo saw that Lu Yunli had a live buckle left in his words, so he lifted the cuffs up, only to see that each arm had a star and moon shining, and knocked on his legs, there were also machine tools, and there was a hidden pocket sword under his wrist, after the display, he said: "These are only a part, there are some in the package, when you meet a small thief, you will use a sleeve sword to send it away, and when you meet a master, you will use the stars and moon to shine, the master of the world, no one can hide from the stars and the moon." ”

Lu Yunli looked at this situation, he was determined not to go back, even if he drove her back, she would find another way to follow, and if he encountered danger, I was not around, it was even more dangerous. said: "Since you are following me, then you have to listen to everything I say, and you can't make your own decisions." If you encounter danger, I will tell you to go first, and you will leave without looking back, returning to Tianjue Mountain. If you say yes, I'll agree to let you go with me. ”

Lu Bo didn't even think about it, so he happily agreed. With a smile on his face, he said, "Let's go, we have to find a place to live before dark." ”

One was worried, the other was happy, and the two rode north.

In the cold winter, after only walking more than 70 miles, it was already evening, and I saw a village in the distance, and the cooking smoke was faint. The two decided to spend the night in the village, so they urged their horses forward. The village is small, with only a dozen or so families, low houses with tall corn stalks and haystacks stacked outside. Lu Yunli dismounted, knocked on the house for a while, an old woman opened the door, saw a pair of young men and women, and asked, "Young man, what's the matter?"

Lu Yunli said: "My cousin and I were going to Bianzhou, but unfortunately we miscalculated the time, it was already dark, and we couldn't hurry, can we stay overnight at your house, I have five taels of silver, and then help me kill a chicken, stew." We'll leave early tomorrow morning. ”

The old woman looked at the silver, which was more than half a year's income, so she quickly arranged to enter the house. The two tied their horses, and as the old woman entered the house, there was no one in the house, and Lu Yunli and Lu Bo were roasting the fire by the stove.
