Chapter 22 Autumn Leaves of the End of the South II

But where these two cool touches are like lava burning, the hard jade pill gradually melts and becomes smaller under the infiltration of the blood of the ghost third aunt, and finally slowly disappears without a trace......

Since the day Xiao Yao washed the dust spectrum and achieved success, he has not dreamed for a long, long time, the martial arts that heaven rewards diligence and the world's best martial arts are not born, even if the talent is high, no matter how clever the internal strength classics, it is difficult to become a peerless master without diligence.

Because of this, Xiao Yao has never slackened in his martial arts practice, and he has spent every night in meditation and practice, and in recent years, he has almost forgotten the ethereal dreams of his youth.

But today Xiao Yao felt that he had a long, long dream, he dreamed of the vague smiling faces of his parents on the day he was born, dreamed of his bits and pieces in the Peach Blossom Gorge of Wuling Mountain, dreamed of many people and many things, and even dreamed that his soul was free from the shackles of his body and was drifting away from the wind.

Whether he wanted it or not, whether he liked it or not, he looked around in a daze, but found that there was only a thick fog behind him, and there was an incomparably eerie darkness that seemed to never be visible, he wanted to shout but couldn't make a sound, he wanted to leave but found that he couldn't perform the light skills that he relied on to conceit.

I don't know how long it took, maybe it was a moment or a lifetime, but the fog in front of him slowly dispersed, revealing the outline of a castle, although the castle in the fog was not revealed, but it had already brought him a cold and irresistible attraction......

Suddenly, a hand that deceived Frost Saixue pierced through the layers of fog behind him, grabbed his slowly cold hand, and immediately after him, he felt that he was being embraced into an extremely warm and comfortable embrace, which was very similar to his mother's embrace, but it was a little different......

In an instant, the black castle in the distance, which had not yet been fully revealed, began to shatter piece by piece, like a broken and exquisite mirror, and a roar of anger and unwillingness faintly came from the depths of the castle, but to no avail, the castle and the fog gradually dissipated.

Xiao Yao suddenly felt a refreshing coolness coming from his mouth, and this coolness gradually spread from his mouth, spreading to his limbs, and then to the place where he was injured by the Gentian Bright Silver Spear* in his chest.

What is the Gentian Bright Silver Spear, why do you know such a name, who is you, where does it come from?

'Xiao Yao~'' 'Xiao Yao~' A call like a dream echoed in his soul.

'Xiao Yao?'That's right, I'm Xiao Yao!!

At this point, Xiao Yao opened his eyes violently, his last memory was still on the cliff and the moment when he fought with Jiang Jingzhong, the governor of Dongchang Factory, his hands tightened unconsciously, and the Flowing Year Sword was still in his hand, and the feeling of blood connection became even stronger.

The sound of the roar of the river in his ears was still there, but the scene in front of him was no longer the scenery on the cliff, and he felt the sensation of his body slowly regain to the point that he could already feel a light body half pressing on his body.

The coolness that appeared in the dream didn't seem entirely illusory, and now the coolness still remained between his lips and teeth, but he could clearly perceive that there was a little sweetness, a saltiness, and a rich blood in addition to this coolness.

An arm that was as soft as boneless skin and almost clear was between his neck, Xiao Yao only glanced at it and was sure that he had never seen such an arm, even if he had not seen the sun since he was a baby, he should not have such a soft and white arm, as long as such an arm was looked at, it would definitely become an indelible memory, deeply seared into that person's mind, and he Xiao Yao was no exception.

Under this white and tender arm is a slender palm, the five fingers are slender and smooth like jade, but the position of the fingertips is scarred, because it is too close, Xiao Yao can even vaguely smell the aroma of the blood on the soft pancreas, this aroma seems to contain the smell of all the herbs in the world, but it is not limited to these, and Xiao Yao was stunned when he smelled this smell, because he had clearly smelled such a smell.

Turning her stiff neck with difficulty, she looked at her left side, it was a face that was both familiar and a little unfamiliar, saying that she was familiar because she didn't know how many times she had seen this face day and night, saying that she was strange because there was a secret hidden under this face, perhaps the secret that he inadvertently flashed in his mind, and this secret was finally awakened because of a pair of jade arms that should never appear here.

Since a few months ago, he had noticed this secret a little, but the idea of exploring it was dispelled by Shibo Tianyuanzi at the beginning.

Xiao Yao looked at the criss-crossing scratches on his white and tender arms, feeling the fragrance of blood on his lips that had not yet dissipated, Xiao Yao was a little dazed and a little scared, this was the first time in his life that he felt this kind of emotion, and for the first time he became afraid to face the truth that might be discovered.

Because the familiar face in front of him was exposed between his neck, and it was clear that he had seen the traces most often when he was learning the disguise technique from his uncle Hundred Changing Star Monarch.

If he could choose, Xiao Yao really hoped that his mind could become dull at this time, and not think of the cruelty that he didn't want to face, but it was likely to be reality.

Taking a deep breath, he suddenly had the wound left by Jiang Jingzhong's Gentian Bright Silver Spear* earlier than he expected, thinking of the coolness and blood fragrance in his mouth, how could Xiao Yao not know that he was saved by the woman in front of him who didn't know his 'identity'.

When the placket on his chest was on the cliff, it was shattered by the strength of Jiang Jingzhong's gentian bright silver spear, and it was floating and sinking in the river for a long time, and it had already become tattered, unable to cover the dark golden gold silk soft armor below.

However, the invulnerable golden silk soft armor, the position of the chest at this time cracked a small hole, the power of the Dongchang factory governor Jiang Jingzhong's shot was so great that even the treasure gold silk soft armor could barely resist, Xiao Yao knew that if it wasn't for the golden silk soft armor on his chest that blocked the tip of the gentian bright silver spear, if it wasn't for the cliff behind him, he was afraid that he would have been pierced through the chest by Jiang Jingzhong's gentian bright silver spear at the top of the cliff.

Thinking of the situation before leaving the dense forest, the third aunt of the master and the ghost handed over the golden silk soft armor to him and let him put it on, his heart ached, because he knew that he owed too much to the person in front of him.

But he was obviously shot off the cliff by Jiang Jingzhong at that time, but how could he appear here with the ghost third aunt, where are the master and apprentice of Jin Yuliang and Zhang Yide, and what is the hand and warm embrace that appeared in the dream......

There are too many questions lingering in Xiao Yao's heart, and the answer to all of this seems to be the only way to find the answer in the unidentified 'ghost third aunt' in front of her, but when she wakes up, how should she face her?

Whether to pretend that she didn't know everything, or to question her about the whereabouts of the real ghost third aunt, Xiao Yao's heart was very chaotic at this time, as if he accidentally knocked over the herb box of the third aunt of the master and ghost in the Star River Valley that year, and hundreds of medicinal herbs were mixed together.

Thinking of the stern and kind figure of the ghost third aunt, Xiao Yao's eyes gradually became firm, but when his eyes moved to the sleeping woman on the ground, the bits and pieces of the wind and rain all the way surfaced in his heart, although I don't know why she disguised herself as a master and ghost third aunt and settled in the Star River Valley.

But this journey of ups and downs, the woman in front of him has never harmed him Xiao Yao in the slightest, and even Xiao Yao seems to be deliberately in his heart, ignoring the sporadic behavior of the woman that is different from the uncle and the ghost and the third aunt, maybe he has already guessed the truth but has been avoiding the truth.

Shaking his head, Xiao Yao gently took away the white dazzling arm that was lying across his neck, and when his hand touched the cold jade arm, he couldn't help but tremble.

The woman disguised as a ghost third aunt suddenly let out a dream, "Xiao Yao~Xiao Yao~ Don't be afraid, I will definitely wake up your ......"

Hearing this voice, Xiao Yao's heart seemed to be an arrow, but what this arrow brought was not pain, but a faint panic, a faint numbness, and a faint worry.

Sometimes a casual word is a lifetime, sometimes an inadvertent move is the end of the world, when Xiao Yao had long been suspicious of the words and deeds of the 'uncle', but he still did not hesitate to stand in front of the 'ghost three aunts', maybe everything has been written.

A 'master' who was not his uncle had already quietly walked into his heart and infiltrated his soul, when did all this start, maybe a second before he jumped, maybe at the moment when his heartstrings were touched in the galaxy.

And how did she fall, was it his meticulous care along the way, or the pull of providence in the dark, or the desperate figure at that moment to cover her palpitations when she died, maybe when the most important person in her life 'inadvertently' talked about him in front of her, the silk thread of marriage had quietly wrapped around her.

When Xiao Yao's left arm was almost pierced by Jiang Jingzhong's gentian bright silver spear when he was on the cliff, but at this moment, although the wound was still hideous and terrifying, there was no blood flowing out, and even after the cool breath swam away, he was able to exert some strength, Xiao Yao couldn't help but sigh at the strength of his recovery ability, of course, that cool breath was also indispensable, he could already guess that the cool breath that kept him alive was most likely the blood of the woman in front of him, which made him more and more overwhelmed.

Straightened up and looked around, this place was a flat river beach, where the rushing Dongjiang water turned in vain, so it eased a little, and it may be because of this that he and the 'ghost three aunts' were able to go ashore.

There are still a row of footprints and two shallow drag marks in the tidal flat not far away, and it is thought that this woman disguised as the ghost Sangu rescued him from the Dongjiang River, but the row of footprints was from the river to here, and not from here to the river, that is to say, the 'ghost Sangu' came up from the Dongjiang River with him.

Xiao Yao could almost see a scene in front of him, he was hit by Jiang Jingzhong's gentian bright silver spear, and fell from the top of the cliff into the rushing Dongjiang River, the 'Ghost Third Aunt' jumped into the cold roaring river water without hesitation and dragged him, until he came to this crooked shout, the momentum of the Dongjiang River weakened a little, and the 'Ghost Third Aunt' rescued him from the river.

If it weren't for this crooked river, maybe now she and herself would not have known where they were taken by the rushing Dongjiang water, and even the belly of fish and shrimp would have been killed.

The fairy and the warm embrace in the dream turned out to be ...... And what kind of ordeal did such a slender jade hand go through to get hurt into the way it is now, Xiao Yao didn't dare to think about it, because as long as he thought about it, he would find that the pain brought to him by every scar was not inferior to Jiang Jingzhong's desperate shot.

The surrounding scenery is no longer the same as the dense forest, and even the cliff that almost separates Xiao Yao's life and death has disappeared without a trace, but the Dongjiang River is still there.

Xiao Yao knew Jiang Jingzhong's desire for the Flowing Year Sword in his hand, and the other party couldn't find his bones under the cliff, so he must do everything possible to send people along the river to salvage and explore down the river.

Even before he was injured, he was barely able to block Jiang Jingzhong with the power of the Flowing Sword in his hand, and now he is not the opponent of the other party under serious injury, and the only advantage he has is that the other party must not have imagined that Xiao Yao, who was shot by him, not only did not die, but still had the strength to move.

So he must leave before Jiang Jingzhong and his canine teeth find this place, at least away from this Dongjiang River that helped him before, but now he has begun to help Jiang Jingzhong.

When Xiao Yao woke up, the Flowing Year Sword held in his right hand had already fallen into the scabbard held in his left hand at some point, and he tore a piece of his outer robe, wrapped the Flowing Year Sword and put it behind his back again.

After doing these few simple actions tightly, Xiao Yao already felt a burst of dizziness and dizziness, and the heavy drowsiness seemed to be entangled by a shadowless and invisible demon, although Shennong Dan had almost healed his internal and external injuries, but the blood he shed was not so easy to remedy.

Xiao Yao bit the tip of his tongue hard to cheer himself up, now he must not fall or sleep, secretly said offended, bent down and picked up the 'ghost third aunt'.

The ghost third aunt in her arms was as light as a leaf, but it was such a weak body that rescued Xiao Yao in the torrent.

The face of the 'Ghost Third Aunt' was still scorched and dry, but her exposed arms were almost bloodless and pale, Xiao Yao knew that she had to find a safe place at the moment and find some herbal supplements to recuperate the Ghost Third Aunt, otherwise the consequences would be unimaginable.

Xiao Yao held the 'ghost three aunts' and easily found a town, and after a little inquiry, he found out that he and the 'ghost three aunts' had been brought all the way to Chaozhou, Guangdong by the Dongjiang River.

This place is already the territory of Qi Jiguang, the governor of Guangdong, and Jiang Jingzhong, the governor of Dongchang, will never be able to send a large army to hunt them down even if he has great ability.

Although relieved, Xiao Yao still didn't dare to be careless, although Jiang Jingzhong couldn't send a large army, he would definitely not give up the Flowing Year Sword, and would definitely send his subordinates to secretly investigate.

In the town, Xiao Yao 'borrowed' a bag of silver taels from a wicked gentleman, this gadget was still learned when he and Zhang Yide were together again, but he didn't expect it to come in handy today.

The 'Ghost Third Aunt' and the silver on him are not much, although these silver taels are enough when they are in a hurry, but it is far from enough to buy a lot of cherished medicinal materials for the 'Ghost Third Aunt' to recuperate.

It turned out that although he was arrested by the Xuanluo Divine Sect because of Gu Danfang, with his kung fu, he really didn't care much about it unless it was the Hades Emperor Wu Ming's own visit, or several of the eight tribesmen joined forces.

But now that he fell into the shoals of Pingyang Dragon, and because the Flowing Year Sword was missed by Jiang Jingzhong, the governor of Dongchang Factory, it can be said that he was struggling, and it was Jiang Jingzhong who was greedy for the Flowing Year Divine Sword, and did not spread the news that the Flowing Year Divine Sword was in Xiao Yao's hands, otherwise I was afraid that the situation in front of Xiao Yao would be much worse.

Fortunately, at this age, there is a shortage of everything, the only thing that is not lacking is corrupt officials and bullies, Xiao Yao did not bother much to raise enough silver taels.

I bought a few new clothes to change into at the ready-to-wear shops in the town, a comfortable carriage and two horses at the car dealership, and bought a lot of herbs for recuperation at several pharmacies in the town.

Xiao Yao then drove away from the town and continued to the south.

Walking to a barren mountain, Xiao Yao stopped the carriage, boiled a few pairs of warm and tonic decoction, and after feeding the ghost three aunts on the carriage, he leaned on the carriage and began to meditate.

After a week of practice, I felt better and continued to drive.

This is more than a day.

Xiao Yao is boiling medicine again to feed the 'ghost third aunt' to take.

The 'ghost third aunt' suddenly dreamed: "Xiao Yao~" "Mother~" "Don't go, don't leave me~"

'Ghost Sangu' has been immersed in the icy water of the Dongjiang River for a long time, her skills are not profound, she was immersed in the wind and cold early, and she barely rescued Xiao Yao from the river under exhaustion, not counting the forced use of a lot of blood to open the Shennong Pill for Xiao Yao, even if she used to use elixir to warm her body, it also greatly hurt her vitality.

Soon after Xiao Yao picked her up, he found that she was sick and had a high fever, but fortunately, Xiao Yao's medical skills were also good, and he bought herbs in time to suppress the condition for her, but even so, the 'ghost third aunt' was still groggy and didn't wake up all day, especially when she often dreamed in her sleep.

The two names she often mentions in her dreams are 'Xiao Yao' and 'her mother', and every time Xiao Yao and her mother are mentioned, the sleeping 'ghost third aunt' must cry......

At this time, Xiao Yao must be gentle and soothing, and the mood of the 'ghost third aunt' will stabilize, it seems that Xiao Yao's voice can pass through her ears and directly reach her dreams, and in her dreams, she will overcome fear when she hears Xiao Yao's voice......
