A blood-red sun poked its head out from one end of the valley, and the lake suddenly rippled with red light, and the surrounding trees were also stained with blood, which made people look a little frightened.

The goshawk whispered to Zhao Sheng: "Your Majesty, if you are in good health, let's leave now." ”

Zhao Sheng grabbed the goshawk and whispered in his ear: "Brother goshawk, Uncle Li said that the good hand around the Mongolian has a very high internal strength, and I want you to stop calling me like that, so as not to be heard by others." You can call me Xiao Sheng from now on. ”

Goshawk nodded, smiled slightly, and said, "Let's go, don't delay here." ”

Li Linhong said on the side: "Brother Goshawk, you can rest first, I see that you haven't slept all night, your face is ugly, I'm afraid that you will be tired and lie down." ”

Li Shuxiu talked to Rapp for a while, and seeing that although he was not in good spirits, he was not seriously injured, and his heart settled down, thinking: Rapp is such a hearty and strong man...... Man, although it is a little uncomfortable at this moment, it will soon cheer up.

She was just out of danger at the moment, and she only felt like she was in a dream, secretly thinking that she could have the opportunity to be alone with her sweetheart in this canyon, and she couldn't help but be a little excited, but when she thought about it, she was a little shy and scared.

She patted her cheek and thought to herself, "Ah Xiu!" you are too unproductive, too unrighteous. How can you think that your Kazakh friends are suffering heavy casualties, and Rapp is at his saddest...... Besides, Rapp already has a sweetheart, and it's despicable and shameless for you to covet him like this.

She turned her back to Rapp, her face was red and white, she was uneasy, her mind was restless, she couldn't help pretending to look around, she looked at the goshawk for a while, and her heart shook suddenly, and she couldn't help but exclaim.

I saw the goshawk take off his battle robe, revealing his emaciated and sturdy upper body, and the wounds on his body were shocking and creepy. The sharp claws of those hyenas left blood marks on his body, some of which penetrated deep into the texture, wounds into the bones, and were still bleeding at the moment. Then he was repeatedly injured, and the scars were criss-crossed, dense, as if he had just been killed.

Li Shuxiu has seen a lot of tragic things since he was a child, but he has never seen such a terrifying tragic situation, and he is just imagining it freely, but he is afraid that he will not be able to think of such a scene.

In an instant, the tenderness and sweetness in her mind disappeared, and the tragic wound in front of her flickered in her eyes, deeply reflected in her mind, and could no longer linger.

She thought: Brother Goshawk was so seriously injured, but he didn't say a word, such heroism is admirable.

The goshawk washed his hands in the lake, picked up the lake water, and poured it on the wound, Li Shuxiu stared at his actions with wide eyes, knowing that once the wound was soaked, the pain would be doubly rampant, especially with an injury like him, if it was himself, he was afraid that he would faint in pain. How can I think of a way to relieve him from some pain?

She looked at it for a while, and suddenly blushed, and thought to herself: I'm afraid it's quite inappropriate for me to look at a man's body like this...... But let's walk the rivers and lakes, natural righteousness comes first, and the goshawk has the grace to save my life, so I should naturally make up for it.

She suddenly remembered that her master had taught some massage techniques to stop bleeding and relieve pain, and the effect was quite good, but she had never tried it.

The goshawk sat cross-legged, wiped the wound for a while, his body shook suddenly, his mouth let out a grunting shout, his eyes narrowed, his lips closed, his fists clenched, and the green tendons on his forehead burst out.

Zhao Sheng cried: "Brother Goshawk, Brother Goshawk." "Hugging the goshawk's waist, a small face pressed against his arm.

Li Shuxiu didn't hesitate any longer, walked quickly to the goshawk's side, stretched out his hand and exerted a little force on his giant bone acupoint, and the internal force penetrated into the acupoint, which made him feel the severe pain immediately.

The goshawk opened his eyes and said softly, "Thank you, aunt...... Little brother. ”

Li Shuxiu's face turned red, lowered his head, and thought: He already knew. But at this time, he couldn't retreat, and he recalled a little in his mind, remembering the tips taught by his master, his fingers were like flying, swift and agile, connecting dots on his dumb door, chest path, and spiritual platform. For the first time, she used this "wind and clouds" fingering, although she was a little rusty, but she recognized the acupoints accurately, the internal force was ingenious, and she did not hesitate, and she was quite famous.

Zhao Sheng stopped crying, opened his eyes wide, and exclaimed, "Brother Li, this is the rumored acupoint kung fu, right?"

Li Shuxiu nodded, quite proud in his heart, but I heard the master say that acupoint kung fu is not so unusual in the rivers and lakes, but he has lived outside the city for a long time, and this method is extremely rare, so it cannot be easily used, so as not to cause a sensation and expose his family background. At this moment, the situation is critical, chivalry is important, and she naturally can't hide it.

Xuanjing watched coldly, and suddenly said: "You are the fingering of Thunder One Finger Wang Hui, Brother Li, are you his heir?"

Li Shuxiu sighed secretly, but he couldn't hide it when he was recognized as a teacher, otherwise he would be charged with disrespecting his teacher, so he could only say respectfully: "Yes, I have received great grace from my master and learned this martial art." ”

Xuanjing said with a smile: "More than ten years ago, this thunder pointed to Wang Hui's great name in the rivers and lakes, and then I heard that he went to the Western Regions and disappeared from nowhere. As he spoke, he touched his beard again and again, smiling in a weird way.

The Tiande Dao people on his side looked around, quite uneasy, and seemed to feel that a great calamity was coming. Sure enough, Xuanjing patted him on the shoulder, and said with a smile: "Although the apprentice is two or three years older than you, his kung fu is ...... Alas...... Out of reach, out of reach. Poor Dao once studied martial arts with Wang Hui, he was open-minded, and let Poor Dao make a move, so that Poor Dao still feels in his heart, not to mention that he has a good eye for people, and he is really better than my Xuanjing. ”

He didn't say that he didn't teach well, and put the blame on his apprentice, implying that his qualifications were mediocre and that he had wasted the teachings of a grandmaster of his own generation, with a sad expression on his face, Tiande Dao people couldn't cry or laugh, so they could only shut up.

Li Shuxiu was a little surprised, and thought: Listening to his tone, this Taoist priest is actually more powerful than the master, if I fight him with all my might, I don't know if I can resist fifty moves?

The goshawk trembled for a while, suddenly froze, took out a short shirt from his bag and put it on, and said to Li Shuxiu: "Brother Li has good internal strength, and I am grateful to Dade." ”

Li Shuxiu smiled and said, "Let's give up our lives to each other, if it weren't for Brother Goshawk, where would I have the life to help you?"

She groped in her arms for a while, took out the map, examined it carefully, looked around for a long time, and said, "The map says that if you go north along this lake, through the labyrinthine valley, you will reach the palace of the barbarian king. ”

The county lord of Jiuhe suddenly said: "Brother Li, I have a word, you can listen to it, whether you agree or not, it is up to you to decide." ”

Li Shuxiu raised her eyebrows and looked at the county lord of Jiuhe from afar, the county lord's eyes touched her, and his face flushed, but he still said loudly: "You have also seen how fierce the hyenas in the valley behind you are, and I don't know what terrible demons and monsters are waiting for us in the depths of the valley in front of us, if it is only you people, I am afraid ...... I'm afraid I won't be able to make it to the end of this labyrinth. ”

Li Shuxiu understood and said, "Are you going to walk with us?"

The county lord of Jiuhe nodded and said: "We came here this time to find a secret book called 'Nine Shades and Nine Heavens Ascending Yang and Lowering Yin Gong', and the rest of the treasures, this county lord does not pay attention to them. Let's put aside our old suspicions, work together, take care of each other, and when we find the treasure, I swear that I will never attack the rest of the treasures. ”

When the goshawk heard this awkward name, his eyes were confused, and there seemed to be a certain thought rolling and tossing in his mind, looming, but he couldn't think of anything.

Li Shuxiu looked at Rapp and asked, "Brother Rapp, what do you think?"

Rapp raised his head and said: "Everything is the will of Allah, and if Allah allows you to live to take the treasure of the labyrinth, then I have nothing to say." ”

The goshawk was secretly amused, thinking: This Allah has hurt you enough, and you still believe in it so much, this religious ecstasy is really admirable.

Li Shuxiu looked at the goshawk again, Li Linhong coughed, and said: "The county lord and your subordinates swear together that they will not touch any treasures except for that secret book." ”

The lord of Jiuhe swore in the name of Genghis Khan, and the two Mongolian soldiers also recited a few Mongolian words aloud firmly. Xuanjing and Tiande's expressions were a little reluctant, but they still swore in a sullen voice in the name of Chongyang Patriarch.

Li Linhong nodded at Li Shuxiu, and Li Shuxiu said, "Then let's make a decision." ”

At that moment, everyone was cultivating by the lake, and after filling the kettle, they reluctantly left the lake while the sky was clear, and walked towards the rugged valley in the north.

――――

After walking for about an hour, the meadow came to an end, and the road ahead was bumpy, and the mountains and gorges on both sides were towering, and cedar and cypress trees stood on the slopes, and the roar of wild beasts could be heard from time to time.

Zhao Sheng's voice trembled, and he said to the goshawk: "Brother goshawk, we might as well stay on the edge of the lake." ”

Goshawk smiled: "Xiao Sheng, although the lakeside is comfortable, it is just a place for us to stop on the way." We are shouldering a heavy burden on this trip, and the road ahead is as difficult as climbing to the sky, if we are greedy for stability and do not want to forge ahead, it will be very inappropriate. Although we rashly went deep into the dangerous place, the situation seems to be not good, but it is the so-called "not broken, not standing", "luck and extreme", yin and yang prosper, and blessings and misfortunes depend on each other......"

Li Linhong was in awe and said with a smile: "Brother Goshawk, I really can't imagine that you are full of mouths, but I am afraid that you are a talent in the army." ”

The goshawk was quite proud, his head was almost perpendicular to his neck, and he said aloud: "That's natural, although I am in the army, I have the ambition of Lu Meng, and I have studied this poetry and song, and the Four Books and Five Classics have also been quite studied." ”

Zhao Sheng laughed and said: "Goshawk brother Wen can put pen to paper, Wu can go to the horse to level the world, it's really my great Song ......" Li Linhong reacted very quickly, and immediately stretched out his hand to cover Zhao Sheng's mouth, looking nervous. Fortunately, the Mongols were also chatting and did not seem to hear it.

Li Linhong begged for mercy and said, "Two ancestors, you can have a snack." My old Li is reckless, but compared with the two of them, he is really like a girl's family. ”

Zhao Sheng stuck out his tongue and looked apologetic, but the goshawk had no remorse, but raised his head and chest, looking flamboyant.

Li Linhong sighed, only to feel that his head was as big as a bucket, looking at the hidden valley in front of him, his heart was really uneasy.
