Chapter XVIII: Blazing Land 1
Chapter 18: The Blazing Land
Let's say that Hai Fugui, Xiahou Jinxuan, Jiang Cheng and his party, after leaving the Folding Sword Villa, because there were too many people in Yunlaishi, they couldn't travel far, so they stopped outside Yizhou City. The crowd went into the city in groups and gathered at an inn.
Jiang Cheng and Li Yan naturally thanked Hai Fugui for his efforts to speak for the demons in Folding Sword Villa, and Hai Fugui could only say a few polite words: "Help is not to help relatives, not to mention that the two of you treat me as a friend, how can friends stand by and watch when they are in trouble, I think even if I don't say it, Brother Xiahou and they will come to the stage to defend the two." ”
Xiahou Jinxuan was a sincere child, and hurriedly shook his head and said: "No, no, to be honest, I originally planned to come to the stage to defend Brother Jiang, but in the face of the Huangfu Sect Master, in front of the heroes of the world, I definitely don't talk as freely as Brother Hai, and it will be self-defeating." ”
"Yes. The girl said, "Especially the emperor Yiming, Brother Jiang has no grievances with him, but he has to kill Brother Jiang." Hmph, fortunately, Hai Gongzi has a strong mouth and scolded him for being bloody. Seeing everyone looking at her strangely, her face turned red and said: "Oh, I'm stupid and can't speak, anyway, I was happy when I saw that Huangfu was speechless by Hai Gongzi." ”
Everyone laughed for a while, and Twilight Lan said: "Flawed girl, innocent, is a person of temperament. ”
Later, Xiahou Jinxuan gave a package to Jiang Cheng, saying that it was entrusted by Ouyang Qian, the second lady of Folding Sword Villa. Jiang undertook this delicate and ingenious package, which was not heavy, but felt quite heavy.
That night, there was a feast at the inn, everyone drank to celebrate, carnival, the shopkeeper didn't know how many jars of wine he held, what surprised him the most was that the woman in green drank the most.
Hai Fugui faced dozens of bandit "wine barrels", and he couldn't resist it, so he had to pretend to be drunk and go back to the room early.
After settling the cottage disciples, everyone gathered together to discuss their future plans. Jiang Cheng proposed to go to the southwest to find his own background.
Xiahou Jinxuan, Miss Flaw, and Dusk Lanlan have been looking for Shennong Ding without clues, and they don't care about delaying a few more days, so they ask to go together; Li Yan is now looking forward to Jiang Chengma, so he naturally follows; Hai Fugui said that he has nothing to do now, and he will go with them to see the next world. Jiang Cheng once again thanked everyone for their help.
Hai Fugui reminded Li Yan: "The hatred of the human race for demons has been for thousands of years, and it can't be changed overnight, let alone me can change it by talking about it casually, and when they look back, I'm afraid that you will become the target of the people in the rivers and lakes again, so you can't show up in public for the time being." ”
Jiang Cheng and Li Yan both agreed with him. So Li Yan arranged for Ding Gu Lu to escort the copycat disciples of Baoyun City to Yizhou. Hai Fugui had another opinion on this arrangement, and he had been hesitating, and thought for a while: "That's not necessary, there is a saying that the most dangerous place is the safest place, Huangfu Yiming caught the brothers in Baoyun City, and he would never have thought that you would still dare to stay in Baoyun City, which is also the reason why the brothers in Baoyun City have been safe for so long." Moreover, it is a long way to come to Yizhou from Baoyun City, and it is easy to have accidents. ”
Li Yan slapped Hai Fugui's shoulder again: "Brother Hai, you are really resourceful! I owe you a reminder, otherwise I will make a big mistake again!"
Hai Fugui grinned in pain, forced himself to hold back, and repeatedly warned himself to stay away from this half-demon beast, took a breath of cold air and said: "The authorities are obsessed with bystanders, Brother Li doesn't have to be like this." ”
Li Yan arranged the cottage disciples in Yizhou City, and sent people to Baoyun City to contact other disciples, and after everything was in order, he went to the southwest with Jiang Cheng.
Jiang Cheng didn't know the specific location of the trip, only with a map of animal skin in his hand, fortunately, there were clouds and stones, and everyone's itinerary was not slow, and a day later they had arrived at the southwest border, but they had not found the location indicated on the map for a long time, and the map showed a cave, marked on an unknown peak. However, the southwest is mountainous, and even if you know the general direction, you can't find it in two or three days.
On the cloud, Hai Fugui asked: "Brother Jiang, I have always had a question, did you give you this map from the Ouyang Alliance Master?" Hai Fugui guessed that Ouyang Ying, who picked up Jiang Cheng, should know his general background, so he gave Jiang Cheng this map, and it is even possible that this map is Jiang Cheng's belongings when he was young.
Jiang Cheng hesitated for a moment and said: "Until now, I will no longer hide it, this is a gift from a man in black with a white mask when I was in Yizhou City." ”
"The man in the white mask and the man in black!" said Twilight.
"Well, how did Miss Twilight know this person?" Jiang Cheng asked.
Twilight immediately shook her head and said, "No, I don't know, I just think this person's intentions may be difficult to understand." ”
Jiang Cheng said: "Well, I was worried about the same as Miss Dusk, so I was wary of this person from the beginning. Since last year's Folding Sword Villa martial arts competition, this person has come to me. Along the way, this person has found me many times, and told me that I am a demon, and gave me this map, so that I can reveal my background according to the places pointed on the map, because this person has not shown his true face, so I don't believe what he said, now it seems, I am afraid that what he said is true, no matter what, I still have to go, and then I am making plans. ”
Xiahou Jinxuan carefully looked at the animal skin map and said: "Looking at this map, it has been a long time, it doesn't look like it was made temporarily, and the possibility of the black-clothed man in the mask being faked can be ruled out, unless he has the ability to predict the future, and he will make a map early and wait for Brother Jiang." ”
Jiang Cheng said with a worried face: "It's just that this person's intentions are unknown, but I am afraid that this trip may be dangerous and abnormal, or there may be accidents." ”
Hai Fugui said: "Well, since it is about Brother Jiang's life experience, then there is a reason why you must go, everyone should act when the opportunity comes, and be more careful in case he sets up an ambush." ”
At this moment, the girl suddenly said, "Look, is that the big tree of Aokiju?" The ancient tree of Aoki is as big as a mountain, so it can be easily recognized even in the clouds.
"It's really Aokiju, and it turns out that the place shown on the map is near Aokiju. Miss Twilight replied, "Why don't we go to Aoki Ju and ask the people of Miaojiang?" ”
Everyone unanimously agreed to go to Aokiju to ask for directions, but Hai Fugui trembled in his heart, for some reason, he was afraid to see the Miaojiang woman in Aokiju - Jieluo, maybe she was dressed too boldly, or maybe she was afraid that she would have a nosebleed again.
Everyone came to Aokiju, of course, to find the most familiar and most familiar Miaojiang people who Hai Fugui was most afraid to see - Jieluo.
Gu Po found that Jieluo had changed recently, she was no longer as lively and clever as before, and she didn't like to talk anymore, and she couldn't help but sigh in her heart: "Alas, love is the most hurtful, I hope you wake up soon." ”
Jieluo was very happy to see Jiang Cheng and them coming, especially when she saw Li Yan also coming, but when she saw the last person, her mood suddenly dimmed, and she was a little flustered, so she took the map and looked at it, and exclaimed, "Hey, you want to go to this place?"
Jiang Cheng said happily: "Miss Jieluo knows?"
Jieluo replied: "Well, this place is not far from Aokiju, our people call it the Demon Mound! Legend has it that a big devil was buried there, I heard that it was extremely dangerous, and it was shrouded in demonic energy all day long, and the people who broke in never came out, and the clansmen did not dare to approach within a hundred miles when hunting. ”
Jiang Chengdao: "I have a reason to go, and I hope that Miss Jieluo can inform me of the location of this place." ”
"Okay. Yura promised to lead them to the Mozuka tomorrow, and it was getting late at this time, so everyone would rest temporarily in Aoki House and set off early tomorrow morning.
Everyone is no stranger to Aokiju, and they each went back to their rooms to rest, and Hai Fugui was the first to leave and went back to his cabin.
Hai Fugui, who was lying on the bed, crossed Erlang's legs, thinking about something in his heart, so he didn't realize that there was water in the teapot. Hai Fugui pondered in his heart: "Since the departure of the Folding Sword Villa, the man in white mask and black has been able to find Jiang Cheng so quickly and accurately, which shows that his whereabouts must have been leaked. There is only one person with this motive and a criminal record, so could it be that she has leaked her whereabouts to others again? Why did she leak Jiang Cheng and Xiahou Jinxuan's whereabouts again and again? At the risk of breaking with her friends. Judging from her relationship with everyone, it is not hypocritical, but sincere, and she does not look like a person who will betray her friends and seek glory. There may be a reason why I don't know, I didn't ask it clearly last time, do you want to ask it this time?"
Late at night, Hai Fugui still couldn't hold back after all, and the secret voice passed on the voice to make an appointment with Dusk Lan, and went to the Phantom Wood Forest where the two met last time, but this time Hai Fugui was in front and Dusk Lanlan was behind.
Hai Fugui was not as hesitant as last time, but said directly: "Miss Dusk, have you encountered any tricky difficulties?"
Twilight Lan knew what Hai Fugui was here tonight, and was silent in the face of Hai Fugui's question.
"Are you being blackmailed?" Hai Fugui boldly guessed.
Twilight still didn't speak.
"Could it be that you are a spy that the other party has cultivated since childhood?"
Although Twilight Lan didn't know what a spy was, she could see that she understood what it meant, and her face gradually became solemn.
Hai Fugui then guessed: "Or for what?????
"Don't say it!" Twilight said a little excitedly, "You don't care about me! I can only tell you that I didn't reveal their whereabouts to anyone who would hurt them. ”
Hai Fugui sighed and said: "Actually, this is none of my business, but now I have become friends with Brother Jiang and Brother Xiahou, and they also regard you as friends, presumably you also regard them as friends." Do you have the heart to betray your friends again and again?" This passage is a little awkward, and it is also a shame that Hai Fugui can finish it at one time.
