The two hugged each other speechlessly for a moment, and suddenly heard a thick voice sound.

"The two of you got up so early!" it was Qiu Hongye's voice, he had just finished dressing, came out of the room, and deliberately said hello when he saw Ma Zhong and Ye Qiuxiang.

Ma Zhong and Ye Qiuxiang both felt like they were electrocuted when they heard Qiu Hongye's voice, and they hurriedly stood up straight.

"Senior Qiu, are you ready to go?" Ma Zhong turned to look at Qiu Hongye, who had just come out of the next room, and asked casually.

Ye Qiuxiang lowered her head, gently wiped her tearful eyes with her hands, and did not speak.

"I'll wait for you!" said Qiu Hongye, "I'll wait for you downstairs, and we'll have breakfast together and go on the road." After saying that, he turned around and went downstairs, leaving without looking back.

After seeing Qiu Hongye leave, Ma Zhongfang turned to Ye Qiuxiang and said, "Miss Ye, let's quickly clean up and go downstairs together." ”

Ye Qiuxiang bowed slightly, turned around and went to her room.

Soon, Ma Zhong and Ye Qiuxiang came downstairs with weapons, and Qiu Hongye had already found a vacant seat and waited.

The three of them had a simple breakfast, and left the inn after settling the bill, when they went out to the door, a man and a woman came over, the male was vigorous, with thick eyebrows and starry eyes, and a body of Ling Ran was upright, and the female was picturesque, peugeot, delicate and lovely.

This pair of men and women is Xiao Li and Shui Qing.

"Brother Xiao?" Ma Zhong's gaze stayed on Xiao Li and stopped.

Xiao Li also stopped, his cold gaze swept over Ma Zhong, and finally landed on Qiu Hongye.

"Do you know?" Qiu Hong also stopped and asked.

"It's a one-sided relationship!" replied Ma Zhong.

Xiao Li didn't pay attention to Ma Zhong, just stared at Qiu Hongye, like two knives carved coldly on Qiu Hongye.

"Qiu Hongye!" Xiao Li clenched his fists, gritting his teeth and bursting out of his mouth with these three words, and his cold eyes seemed to be about to erupt into flames.

"Do you recognize me?" Qiu Hong also clasped his hands, his gaze slowly moved to Xiao Li, and his expression seemed calm.

"You may not recognize me, but even if you turn to ashes, I will recognize you!" Xiao Li said angrily, and that kind of situation looked like it would attack Qiu Hongye at any time.

"Looks like I've met someone seeking revenge today. Qiu Hong also said lightly, as if he didn't care about his life at all.

"Do you know why I killed you?" Xiao Li asked through gritted teeth.

"There are a lot of people who want to kill me, so why bother asking?" Qiu Hongye said, "As long as you have this ability, my life is yours." ”

"I know that with my current strength, I may not be able to kill you, but I will not miss the opportunity that God has given me. Xiao Li said, "I'm a disciple of the Jingwu Society, do you understand why I want to kill you now?"

"Very good, revenge for the master, it is a matter ......of course," Qiu Hongye said lightly, "Do you really want to do it with me here?"

"If you're brave enough, we can duel in another place. Xiao Li said.

"Yes, the time and place are yours. Qiu Hongye immediately nodded in agreement.

"Today, let's go to the open area in the suburbs and compete in it!" Xiao Li said.

"Wait!" Ma Zhong hurriedly said in a harmonious tone, "Why do you have to fight to the death? Let the past go with the wind, why not turn the war into a jade silk, let go of hatred, and go your own way?"

"I have been practicing martial arts diligently, waiting for the day when I will avenge my master, and now that the opportunity is in front of me, how can I let it go?" Xiao Li said.

"Even if you want to duel, you have to be fair, now that Senior Qiu is injured, it is better to fight again on another day!" Ma Zhong couldn't persuade Xiao Li, so he could only come up with a plan to delay the army, and it would be a while to delay it.

Unexpectedly, Qiu Hongye waved his hand and denied: "I am in good health, and I can fight at any time." ”

"Very good, then what are you waiting for?" Xiao Li said solemnly.

"Slow down!" At this time, Ye Qiuxiang, who had been silent, couldn't hold back any longer, and said in a hindrance, "If you want to kill him, kill me first!" After speaking, the horizontal sword blocked in front of Qiu Hongye, and stared at Xiao Li.

"Girl, who are you from Qiu Hongye?" Xiao Li looked at Ye Qiuxiang with a solemn face with a hint of curiosity and asked, "Why do you want to stand up for him?"

He ...... He is also my enemy, even if he wants to kill, I will do it!" Ye Qiuxiang said seriously, without any intention of making concessions.

"Is he your enemy?" Xiao Li obviously didn't believe it, and hurriedly said: "Then why are you still with him, why don't you do it yet?"

"I can do it whenever I like, don't worry about it!" Ye Qiuxiang said.

Xiao Li was speechless for a while.

At this moment, Shui Qing suddenly pulled the corner of Xiao Li's clothes and said softly: "Brother, don't fight, okay?" I'm hungry and want to eat......

Xiao Li did not listen to the slightest persuasion, and insisted on saying: "Any fight can be avoided, but this fight is inevitable! The master treats me like a mountain, and I can't help but avenge this revenge!"

"You keep saying that you want to avenge your master, do you know what kind of person your master is?" Qiu Hongye asked faintly.

"In my eyes, the master is a righteous gentleman, and I have long regarded him as my biological father. Xiao Li said in a true way.

"What a decent gentleman. Qiu Hongye said disdainfully, "That's because he hid it too deeply, it seems that you won't believe anything I say." ”

"Then let's stop talking nonsense, let's do it quickly!" Xiao Li said.

"Okay, I'll see how capable the apprentice trained by that so-called righteous gentleman is. Qiu Hongye is considered to have responded to the battle, "Let's go to the suburbs!"

"Please!" Xiao Li solemnly made a gesture of invitation to Qiu Hong.

"Senior Qiu, do you really want to fight him?" Ma Zhong said busily.

"Don't worry, I'll be fine. Qiu Hongye raised his right hand, signaled not to persuade again, and went out first.

Ye Qiuxiang had no choice but to go out with her.

The group then came to a clearing on the outskirts of the city, where they stopped.

"The scenery here is good, and it is your blessing to be able to bury your bones here. Xiao Li said this to Qiu Hongye.

"There really aren't many young people as confident as you. Qiu Hongye said indifferently, "When you're ready, let the horse come......"

Hearing this, Xiao Li slowly staggered his lunge, his clenched fists slowly burned two beating flames, and the battle was about to break out.

However, seeing that the flames of war were about to be ignited, something happened that surprised everyone present.

As soon as Qiu Hongye's hand was on the hilt of the knife, and before the knife was unsheathed, he suddenly fell to his knees, and a mouthful of blood spurted out of his mouth, obviously suffering a lot of internal injuries.

Ma Zhong was taken aback, and was the first to catch up and support Qiu Hongye, and asked anxiously, "Senior Qiu, are you okay?"

"It's okay, just breathe for a while. Qiu Hongye waved his hand slightly, and his face gradually turned pale.

"Qiu Hongye!" Xiao Li restrained his surprised look at this time, replaced it with anger, and said: "Don't pretend to be dead, don't think that I will let you go in this way, you will only make me more disgusted by doing this!"

"Brother Xiao, I told you early in the morning that Senior Qiu was really injured internally, and his health has not been good, so I don't need to lie to you. Ma Zhong hurriedly said.

"Then why do you insist on fighting me in a duel?" Xiao Li just didn't believe it.

"It seems that my condition is more serious than I imagined, and my limit is approaching, and the gods can't save me. Qiu Hongye covered his chest and said with difficulty.

"How could it suddenly deteriorate?" Ye Qiuxiang saw Qiu Hongye's haggard expression, and she was also very worried in her heart, "You must not die!" This sentence is from the bottom of her heart, I don't know when, her intimacy with Qiu Hongye gradually replaced the previous hostility, although she still refuses to admit the brother-sister relationship with Qiu Hongye.

"Miss Ye, don't worry, I won't be able to die for a while. Qiu Hongye slowly looked at Ye Qiuxiang beside him and said, "But I hope to recognize my long-lost sister before I die, she is my only relative in the world, if she is willing to recognize me as a brother, I will die without regrets." ”

Ye Qiuxiang suddenly felt sad when she heard this, she didn't know what to say, and she didn't know if it was her own self-esteem that was causing trouble, or for other reasons, she was always difficult to say in the face of the man in front of her, who was likely to be her brother, even if it was just a simple word "brother".

"Qiu Hongye!" Xiao Li shouted in an impatient voice, "Are you still fighting or not?" I always thought you were a hot-blooded man, but I didn't expect you to be a bastard who escaped from the battle!"

"Have you said enough?" Ye Qiuxiang couldn't help but stand up suddenly, drew her sword and pointed at Xiao Li, who was roaring, and said angrily: "You want to fight so much, I'll fight with you!"

"I have no grudge against you, why do you want to fight senselessly?" Xiao Li said.

"I said early in the morning that if you want to kill him, kill me first!" Ye Qiuxiang said with a serious face.

"Miss Ye, ...... you" Ye Qiuxiang was about to say something, but for a while, her blood surged, and she couldn't help but spit out another mouthful of blood, and couldn't say any more, so she hurriedly crossed her legs and closed her eyes to breathe to relieve the injury.

"It seems that Senior Qiu is indeed injured a lot, let him breathe well!" Ma Zhong said and slowly stood up from the ground, no longer bothering Qiu Hongye.

Silence spread in the air for a while, and then Xiao Li said: "Qiu Hongye, since you are really injured, I won't take advantage of you." But from now on, I will follow you until you recover, and then we can have a brilliant battle!"

Qiu Hongye only closed his eyes and breathed, without any response, Xiao Li took it as a default.

"Brother Xiao, do you really want to follow us?" Ma Zhong asked as he looked at Xiao Li.

"Yes, I've decided. Xiao Li nodded firmly and said, "Do you have any objections?"

"What objection can I have to you with long legs?" said Ma Zhong.

"Where are you going?" asked Xiao Li.

"Golden scales. Ma Zhong said.

"Okay, I'll go with you to the Golden Scales. Xiao Li nodded and said.
