Wait a minute, heroine

Chapter 381 Encounter in Jianghu

In the twelfth lunar month of winter, the bamboo forest on the mountain is as quiet as death, making it difficult to fall asleep.

In the west wing of the Taoist temple's backyard, the Queen Mother was lying on her side with her eyes closed, still holding the safe and sound sign she bought casually on the road. After sleeping for an unknown amount of time, she slowly opened her eyes.

In the afternoon, Shui'er said that Ye Jingtang was practicing in the back mountain, and the Queen Mother didn't want to disturb her, so she came back first. When she fell asleep, she didn't see Ye Jingtang returning. At this time, she dreamed back at midnight, so she was naturally a little worried about the situation of Ye Jingtang. .

The Queen Mother blinked her eyes, and after waking up slightly, she raised her upper body and looked around.

The Taoist temple is not big, with only three rooms. Hongyu sleeps on the same bed as she did when she was a child. Now she is lying on the inside. In order to leave more room for her to sleep more comfortably, her back is almost against the wall, her cheeks slightly Hong, it looks like he is still having a shameful dream.

It was quiet outside the window, except for the soft sound of the recliner slowly shaking.

Seeing this, the Queen Mother quietly got up and put on her skirt. Then she looked outside the wing and saw that the yard was empty. There were only birds squatting on the chairs and swinging around. They looked like "birds are idle, osmanthus is falling, and the night is quiet and the spring mountain is empty." leisurely posture.

"Where are the people..."

The Queen Mother looked around and saw no one, so she came to the couch and asked:

"Where did Shui'er and Ye Jingtang go?"

"grumble."

Niaoniao tilted his head and motioned to the back of the mountain.

The Queen Mother turned around and looked. Because she had been there when she was a child, she knew that there was a place for wild bathing. She couldn't help but feel a little suspicious. She picked up the hem of her skirt and quietly walked towards the back mountain.

The stars and moon were in the sky, and the visibility on the mountain trails was quite high. The bamboo forest and trees swayed gently in the wind, making a soft rustling sound.

The Queen Mother looked around in the forest. Before she had gone too far, she heard several faint voices in the night:

"Woo...Woo..."

Like a woman crying.

In the middle of the night, in the deserted mountains and wilderness, I suddenly heard this movement, which was obviously a bit eerie.

The Queen Mother shrank her neck slightly, and when she was brave enough to listen carefully, she found that there was no sound at all, and the depths of the bamboo forest seemed to instantly turn into a place where no one died.

?

The Queen Mother looks cute, but she's not stupid at all. She just doesn't like to use her brain.

In the middle of the night, in the woods, this kind of sound...

The Queen Mother thought about it for a while, and then she thought of what was written in "The Secret History of Queen Marietta". When the maids heard the woman crying in the middle of the night, they thought it was a ghost. In fact, it was the sound of the Queen Mother and the Prince having an affair in the garden...

Thinking of this, the Queen Mother's eyes showed disbelief.

Is it possible that Shui'er and Ye Jingtang are together...

She is Liren's master, how could she...

No, I seem to be even more outrageous...

The Queen Mother thought about her relationship with Li Ren and felt that Shui'er's behavior was really not out of line. Even if it were spread, she would just be laughed at by the world. But if her story was spread, it would go directly into the history books and be talked about by future generations for thousands of years. .

The Queen Mother didn't know what she was thinking, and she even hoped that Shui'er was messing around, so that she would have a companion when the incident came to light...

In order to confirm her suspicion, the Queen Mother held up her skirt and walked quietly to the pool she had visited in previous years.

The dense forest was dark and extremely quiet.

As the Queen Mother walked, she could obviously hear her heartbeat gradually accelerating. She stared intently in the direction of the pool. While she was being careful, she suddenly found something scratching her ribs on both sides.

"ah!"

A scream.

The Empress Dowager was caught off guard and jumped a few steps away. Her arms were folded in front of her chest. Her beady cheeks were full of fear. When she looked back, she realized that there was a figure behind her.

The figure was wearing a black robe, with a friendly smile on his handsome face. He realized that she was scared, so he quickly comforted her:

"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, it's me."

"..."

The Queen Mother walked nervously at night, almost crying from fright. When she saw it was a night terror, she breathed a sigh of relief. Then she became angry and rushed up to the man and hit the man's chest twice with her small fist:

Dong Dong~

"You bastard, you...you scared me to death..."

Naturally, Ye Jingtang did not dare to hide, and walked back with his hands on his shoulders:

"It's just a joke. It's my fault. Why are you here? Can't you sleep at night?"

"I……"

The Queen Mother patted her chest lightly and was about to follow the Night Terror Hall back. After thinking for a moment, she felt something was wrong.

She looked back at the mountains and forests, and then at the black-robed young man next to her, looking up and down suspiciously.

Ye Jingtang blinked: "What's wrong?"

The Queen Mother frowned slightly and did not ask. Instead, she turned Ye Jingtang to face the moonlight, tilted her head and looked at the light red lip marks on her neck and her wet hair...

Seeing the rouge that Shui'er often ordered, the Queen Mother naturally understood everything, her eyes were full of disbelief:

"What were you and Shui'er doing... just now?"

The Night Terror Hall found out about the hand warmers and didn’t hide it:

"I was practicing behind Yuxu Temple in the afternoon. I was covered in sweat. When I came back to wash up, Fairy Lu happened to be there too..."

Is this just right?

We happened to meet you and took a shower together?

When the Queen Mother heard this, she didn't know how to respond. She took a deep breath:

"You... Oh, forget it, I can't care about it anyway. Someone will take care of you when the time comes... She actually hid it from me. It's really... I went back first..."

Head down and walk back.

Ye Jingtang held his wrist and walked together in the forest:

"Haha... I'll take you back. It's so dark on the road. Even if you don't call Hongyu next time you go out, let Birds accompany you to avoid being scared..."

The Queen Mother was afraid that Shui'er would see her, so she moved her hands slightly. But after thinking about it, she felt that Shui'er had stolen her lover secretly, so what would happen if he was seen?

Do you still want to take fifty steps to laugh at a hundred steps?

For this reason, the Queen Mother did not hide in the end, but just urged:

"You go ahead and take a bath. I'm not jealous. After washing, you can ask Shui'er to come to my room and I can have a good chat with her."

"OK."

Ye Jingtang escorted the Queen Mother back to the back of the small Taoist temple, lowered her head and kissed her lips.

The Queen Mother blushed slightly, pushed Ye Jing Tang out of the door, and bolted the back door.

Ye Jingtang secretly shook his head and watched the Queen Mother enter the house before returning to the water pool in the mountains.

The bright moon is dim and the forest is silent.

The chess table by the pool was clean and tidy, with a skirt and some small fabrics on it, but the acacia sword originally placed on it was missing.

The fair-skinned and beautiful Master Xuanji was soaking in the water like an iceberg fairy. The water was submerged under her collarbone, and the light was too dark to see her expression clearly. At this time, she was taking advantage of the moonlight to look at the sword blade carefully.

?

Seeing this scene, Ye Jingtang squatted down by the pool and wanted to take the Huan Huan Sword. However, Master Xuanji turned his palm slightly and leaned the sword on his shoulder.

Master Xuanji was dizzy from the torment just now, and suddenly she stopped here and pretended to be a cool fairy. Her breathing was obviously unsteady, but her expression was quite calm. She held the hilt of the sword and said coldly:

"Tell me the truth, when did you harm Huaiyan?"

Night Terror Hall actually made it clear on purpose. After all, it is interesting for two daughters-in-law not to know each other, but it is not an option in the long run. He raised his finger and moved the sword edge away:

"How can you say it's a disaster? Last time, the Queen Mother protected me from being poisoned by a hidden weapon and took her to the northwest. She lived a miserable life in the palace and didn't want to go back. I will ensure that she can go out whenever she wants..."

Master Xuanji and Huaiyan are best friends. Seeing that Huaiyan looks very good in recent months and likes to run around with Ye Jingtang, she actually feels that Huaiyan can't resist the temptation and something will happen sooner or later.

But I didn't expect that the relationship between the two would develop so quickly and reach this point...

In fact, compared to her, it's not that fast...

Master Xuanji originally wanted to show off as a strict teacher and give a few serious warnings, but she had already taken a mandarin duck bath and seemed to lack the confidence to say anything. For this reason, she finally put the sword aside:

"If you make a promise, you can't break it. Huaiyan is the most sentimental person. If you dare to let her down..."

"how come."

Ye Jingtang turned around and took Xiaoyi over:

"Is the washing done? Let's go back."

go back……

Master Xuanji was crying from being tortured just now. She was indeed washed, but Ye Jingtang obviously held it in midway. According to medical theory, the discomfort would be harmful to the body.

No matter how hard Xuanji's mouth was, it was still very soft somewhere. He hesitated for a moment and turned his head to look at it:

"Are you sure you want to go back now?"

When Ye Jingtang saw that Shui'er didn't want to leave, he decided not to say more. He put his clothes back, slid into the water, and picked up Shui'er.

"Hey you..."

Master Xuanji just asked. She didn’t expect this kid to draw inferences like this. Her legs were sore and she hurriedly said:

"Be honest and sit down while I wash you. Go back early after washing."

Ye Jingtang obeyed the arrangement and sat down by the pool, looking down at the water half floating in the water.

Xuanji's body is indeed too much for her, but she is well-read and knows a lot of tricks thanks to Ning'er Sanniang's teachings. She is leaning on the edge of the pool, holding a watermelon and pushing it with a look of disgust on her face:

"I only helped you once for the sake of your health. If you don't obey again in the future, don't blame me..."

"hehe……"

"You still dare to laugh?"

Master Xuanji's eyes turned cold and she made a gesture of folding her sword.

Ye Jingtang dropped his smile and acted serious:

"Ahem...I understand, I won't do it next time..."

"snort……"

Blah blah blah...

There were ripples in the pool, and the whispers lasted for who knows how long...

——

The other side.

Hundreds of miles away from Black Rock Pass, a prairie fire breaks out.

Huhu——

The cold wind was like a knife, carrying the boundless snow and sweeping across the snow-capped ancient battlefield.

Six horses were trudging forward in the snow, headed by a lantern swaying in the wind. The entire horse team looked like a small boat facing a storm in the endless deep sea. It could be blown away by the strong wind at any time. Swallowed by waves.

Jia Shengzi walked in the front holding a lantern, sitting on horseback and groping for the road. Even though he was an expert in martial arts, he also looked a little tired, while the five people behind him were also the same.

After the Battle of Xicheng Port, the dozens of martial arts masters sent by Beiliang were almost wiped out. Only Cao Aning and others managed to escape by relying on the steady style of jumping left and right from the edge.

Although a few people were able to escape because Ye Jingtang secretly set the trap, but in order to prevent Beiliang from becoming suspicious and exposing the hidden stakes, the pursuit should not be too perfunctory.

After Cao Aning and others escaped from Xicheng Port, nearly a hundred elites from the Black Yamen and Six Gates chased them out from Yun'an. The King of Hell even issued an order to kill them, asking sects from various places to intercept them on their behalf.

These people didn't know the identity of Cao Aning's hidden stake, and they were really chasing him. For this reason, the six people could only go all the way west, first escaping to the wasteland southwest of Liangzhou, and then escaped into Hongshan, climbing over the mountains and ridges to the Shazhou Desert, and then from there After turning over Huangming Mountain, he successfully returned to the tribes of Xihai.

After traveling through mountains and ridges in hiding for nearly a month, they finally returned to the jurisdiction of King Zuoxian. The six of them had basically exhausted their energy and energy, but they were lucky to be able to come back alive. The six of them didn't complain, but they were just a little worried about going back. How to communicate.

The place where the six people were was Liaoyuan, which was the place where the Qinchi tribe was wiped out in the last battle. Walking more than two hundred miles further, they reached the vicinity of Pingyi City, and behind them was Tianlang Lake.

Seeing that he was about to return to his station, Jia Shengzi's face became increasingly sad. After reaching a certain snow hill, he dismounted and turned back:

"How should I return my life to the prince after I return?"

Cao Aning got off his horse and wiped the wind and frost from his face:

"Hua Ling is dead. We have done our best to come back alive to preserve our strength. The prince should not be too blamed."

Jia Shengzi panted heavily. After a moment of silence, he sat down on the snow and looked at his five intact men:

"I was ordered to go deep into the Wei capital alone and assassinate Ye Jingtang in the west port. Even Hua Ling and other heroes were killed, but the six of us returned safely without even a scratch on our skin.

"If I hadn't been the leader of this trip, I would have suspected that we were Da Wei's backstabbers and were deliberately let back by Da Wei.

"The way of an emperor is to kill the wrong one before letting go. There are many experts from Bai Xiaoying under the prince's command. They don't care about our six miserable lives. This time, if the prince becomes suspicious..."

One of the five people, a master of the Baixiao camp, was also afraid of going through all kinds of dangers to escape, only to be beheaded by King Zuo Xian in public. He thought for a moment and said:

"How about we go and join the Southern Dynasty?"

"?"

Cao Aning ran back after so much effort. When he heard that he wanted to go back and surrender, he immediately became angry:

"Nonsense. Regardless of the fact that Tian Ying and I are the people who must be killed by the Wei Dynasty, we are waiting to assassinate Ye Jingtang in a grand manner in Xicheng. If we are not hanged in the dark, where is the face of Ye Jingtang? The Southern Dynasty did not even leave Hua Ling. , will you care about our humble lives?

"As for the tribes in the West Sea, this is even more true. To prevent themselves from getting burned, when the tribes in the West Sea see us, they will definitely send us to the Northern and Southern Dynasties. Except for the prince, there is no force in the world that can accommodate us..."

"..."

When everyone saw this, they naturally fell silent.

The Northern and Southern Dynasties and all the tribes in the West Sea did not dare to go, so there would be no place in this world. The only way out was to break up and settle down.

Jia Shengzi rubbed his fingers and was thinking about whether to retreat to the mountains and forests. Xu Tianying, who was standing not far away, suddenly frowned and looked at the snowy field in the northeast.

At this time, the morning light was gradually brightening, and there was snow falling on the ground. Although the visibility was very low, with Jia Shengzi's eyesight, he could still barely see something clearly.

I saw black rocks exposed in the lee of the snow hill half a mile away, and there was some dry grass between the rocks, and there was a touch of green in the middle.

Although the greenery is very inconspicuous, it is extremely out of place on the northwest land in the cold winter. Jia Shengzi just saw it from the corner of his eye, locked on the green, frowned and said:

"In this season, how come there are flowers and plants on the snowfield..."

The remaining five people were also full of doubts. After all, they ran here from Huangming Mountain. Not only was the road green, but even the grass was buried in snow. When they saw a touch of green, they even felt like they were hallucinating.

A few people thought about it for a while, then got up and led the horses towards the snow hills to see what it was.

But just halfway through, there was a soft sound in the wind and snow:

Cha~~

The sound of a sword being drawn out of the snow.

The six people were immediately alert when they heard the sound, holding down the handles of their knives and looking in all directions.

Xu Tianying had the highest martial arts skills among the six. At this time, his hands dropped and he looked at the snow slope on the left.

Huhu~~

The cold wind was blowing, and a figure wearing a hat gradually appeared in the wind and snow, with the cloak fluttering behind him.

The figure was tall and thin, carrying a long stick on his shoulder. The stick was eight feet long. The whole body was dark and iron hoops could be seen on both ends. The bamboo hat was slightly lowered and only his chin could be seen. He walked towards the six people slowly.

Cao Aning's martial arts skills were mediocre, but his eyesight was not bad, otherwise he wouldn't be alive now. When he realized that something was wrong, he quietly protected the five people in front of him.

Jia Shengzi frowned, because in the territory under the jurisdiction of King Zuoxian, he could not figure out the enemy's friends and foes, so he spoke first:

"I am Bai Xiaoying..."

Boom——

It's okay if you don't announce your family status, but when you report your family status, it seems to light a fuse.

The man in the hat, who originally showed no murderous intent, suddenly disappeared from the spot when he heard the name of King Zuo Xian's lackey, "White Owl Camp", and pulled out a white dragon on the snowy field, almost in the blink of an eye.

"Watch out!"

Xu Tianying's expression changed suddenly, and he saw that this man was very powerful and had not insulted the teachings of his mentor Lu Jieyun. He immediately rose into the sky, almost leaping into the air; Cao Aning flew back without hesitation.

The remaining four people obviously didn't realize how deep the current Tianlang Lake was. Seeing the opponent's rash attack, they originally drew their weapons and wanted to engage in battle. However, except for Jia Shengzi, the other three people barely survived a confrontation and were just like... The heavy stick of wisdom, like a thunderous punishment from heaven, was whipped to pieces on the spot.

Bang bang bang——

Three clouds of blood mist exploded instantly in the wind and snow!

Jia Shengzi was considered a white paper fan who made suggestions. He did not rush ahead and escaped disaster. His liver and gallbladder were split with horror when he saw this. He turned around and fled with Cao Aning.

Dou Li Ke was quite domineering. After finishing off his three subordinates, he still arrived first and quickly caught up with them behind them.

Fortunately, Xu Tianying, who was flying all over the sky, could not return to Prince Zuoxian's Mansion alone. At this time, he did not sit idly by and jumped directly to the snow hill with a touch of green.

The fact was not what Xu Tianying expected. As soon as he approached the snow hill, the man in the hat who was chasing him turned back to kill him in the air.

Xu Tianying's fighting ability is not very strong, and he is definitely no match for this man in a single fight, but as the direct descendant of Lu Jieyun, he is a master of his own skills, so he flew up again when he saw this.

The man in the hat also saw that Xu Tianying was very good at Qinggong, so he did not pursue him forcefully. He turned around and wanted to deal with Cao Aning and the two, but Xu Tianying fell down again and approached the snow hill.

"You're so stupid..."

The man in the hat, who had been silent all this time, let out a curse when he saw this. He sounded like an old man.

But the first key to learning Yanshan Jieyunzong is to be thick-skinned. If you can be provoked by the opponent, you will not be able to leave the master.

Xu Tianying acted as if he hadn't heard anything, so he opened the distance again. When the enemy advanced, we retreated, and when the enemy retreated, we harassed them, running up and down near the snow hills.

After going back and forth like this twice, Jia Shengzi and Cao Aning were out of danger and hidden deep in the wind and snow.

Chachacha——

Jia Shengzi ran for his life. When he saw the menacing man in a bamboo hat pursuing Xu Tianying without looking back, he dared to breathe a sigh of relief and asked:

"What should we do now?"

Cao Aning was half frightened and ran without stopping:

"Don't worry, Xu Tianying is Lu Jieyun's direct descendant. If you can't catch up, you will never touch the corner of his clothes. If you get angry and chase after him, maybe he will get the chance to fight back... Who is that person? Look, Have you come out yet?"

Jia Shengzi was one of King Zuo Xian's staff and knew the Beiliang Jianghu very well. He thought for a moment:

"The stick technique seems to be the Yaksha stick, the stick technique of the Celestial Female Dao Hai Gang. More than ten years ago, the Hai Gang was wiped out by the imperial court. Only the gang leader Tian Wuliang escaped and disappeared. The skills look very similar..."

Regardless of whether they were in the Northern or Southern Dynasties, sea gangs were basically pirates who robbed ships. It was not unusual for them to be wiped out. Cao Aning frowned and said:

"Is the Hai Gang leader in Beiliang so powerful?"

"If the Heavenly Female Dao had not been suppressed by Jun Tianfu, Tian Wuliang would have been able to dominate. However, he is still alive today, but he cannot even catch up with Xu Tianying. I guess he suffered a hidden injury back then... Not good!"

When Jia Shengzi said this, he suddenly realized something and stopped and said:

"The Snow Lake Flower has bloomed. He is guarding the Snow Lake Flower. He must be silenced to prevent the news from spreading."

Jia Shengzi's mind is indeed flexible and he can be called loyal, but his decision-making at this time is obviously a bit serious.

Cao Aning ran forward without looking back:

"Go back now, who will silence whom? Go back quickly and report the news, and let the prince send someone to deal with it..."

Jia Shengzi thought about it, and without saying a word, he followed Cao Aning and ran towards Pingyi City...
