Chapter 223: It's Majestic, Bitter and Eternal(1/4)

Especially in spring, dusk always comes quickly.

Before the sunlight evaporates the water vapor in the mountains, the sun has already fallen into the Western Mountains.

Once there is no sunshine, the spring days in February and March will be a bit cold.

The whistling cold wind carried a strong chill, blowing on the delicate face of the moon.

However, evening always heralds the coming of night. As the tornado brings the moon to the unfamiliar mountain road, the already fair face of the moon becomes even paler.

She was afraid of these mountains, the rugged mountain road, the cold wind, and the unknown night.

Therefore, the 18-year-old woman in front of her stumbled and followed the ray of light revealed in the mountains, guessing the direction of Taixuanjing, and headed towards the prosperous capital city.

But soon, the light was gone.

The spring breeze drives the white thick fog and wanders on the mountain road, making the moon wheel not know how to move forward.

And she was also afraid that a mountain ghost would come out of the shadows all over the mountains and plains, or a monster would jump out and swallow her whole.

She cried because of the fear of these shadows and hid in a crevice in the rocks.

Yueluan is from the Qi State. He lives in the Qi State and grew up in the Qi State. He once followed his father to worship the ghosts of the Qi State. He also accidentally saw the blood sacrifice performed by King Qi Yuan. He is more courageous than the young master Da Fu, Miss.

Bigger.

But……

When the insects wandering in the cracks of the rocks crawled on her silk clothes, Yuelun didn't even know how to breathe. She closed her eyes tightly and shivered.

The woman who had left home for no reason did not dare to make a sound, let alone move, because she vaguely heard footsteps approaching.

"Is it a savage bandit in the mountains, or a monster?"

The moon is frightened, and its long eyelashes are still trembling.

But the footsteps were getting closer and closer, as if they were very close.

The moon doesn't dare to open its eyes.

She was afraid that when she opened her eyes, she would see a pale face, or a bloody mouth filled with sharp fangs.

"Huh?"

But the next moment, Yue Lun heard someone speaking with surprise in his tone: "This is a strange thing."

Yuelun's expression changed somewhat when she heard this voice. She slowly opened her eyes and looked along the cracks in the rocks.

Night has fallen, darkness has swallowed everything, and the moon seems to be covered by clouds and mist, without even a shred of light falling.

In addition, the eyes had been closed just now, and when Yuelun opened his eyes, the place he saw was pitch black.

She couldn't see the face of the person speaking in front of her.

But Yuelun is very smart. She had heard this sound earlier when she was still in the sedan chair.

Yue Lun still remembers opening the curtain and looking into the distant sky.

The bloody rays of light flickered in the distant sky, and under the rays of light, a black figure was depicted.

The figure was equipped with a knife, standing in the sky, speaking contemptuously to the monks she had once feared so much.

"It's the murderous swordsman."

Yue Lun breathed a sigh of relief.

At the very least, monsters are much better than mountain ghosts.

As early as the place where the battle just took place, the swordsman in green, who was called Nan Fengmian by Lord Gao Li, had many opportunities to kill her, but he did not do it.

In the current dark night, meeting Nanfeng Mian is the best result for the moon wheel.

A burst of vitality suddenly burned and turned into a stream of fire.

The sudden light fell on Yue Lun's eyes, making it difficult for Yue Lun, who was accustomed to the dark night, to open her eyes.

It wasn't until she became familiar with the light that Yuelun saw Nan Fengmian's appearance in the firelight.

Nan Fengmian's black hair was tied behind her back. Half of her green clothes had been dyed red with blood and even turned black. The hideous wounds had not been treated and the flesh and blood were curled up, making her look a bit miserable.

But the swordsman's expression was as relaxed as before.

He found a willow branch from nowhere and held it in his mouth. The long knife at his waist seemed to be caught in the spring breeze. Even a woman like Yue Lun who had never practiced spiritual practice could vaguely see the breeze blowing.

Besides...a huge beast floating out of thin air next to Nan Fengmian startled Yuelun.

It was a wolf, but it was much larger than an ordinary wild wolf. The fangs protruding from its mouth were just like Yue Lun had just imagined, and the thick tartar could not hide the sharpness of the wolf teeth.

After being frightened, Yue Lun felt a little more at ease because this behemoth, which was more than a foot long, was dead.

Its throat was cut by a knife sharper than his fangs, and blood flowed on its fur, making it somewhat black.

"Why are you here?"

Nan Fengmian frowned, pointed in another direction and said, "That's Taixuanjing."

Yueluan stretched out the back of her dusty hand and wiped her face.

Yue Lun's face, which was originally lightly made up, suddenly became discolored.

Nan Fengmian pointed to the distance and continued moving forward.

Yuelun did not hesitate and quickly got out of the gap in the rocks and followed Nan Fengmian.

She lowered her head carefully and followed Nan Fengmian step by step, walking dozens of steps.

"What are you following me for?"

Nan Fengmian stopped, turned around and raised his eyebrows: "You are from the Qi State. I have killed those Qi State guards. Are you not afraid of me?"

Yueluan stood there, nodding timidly but not speaking.

Nan Fengmian thought that the moon wheel would no longer follow him, so he turned around and walked a few steps, then stopped again.

He took a careful look at the moon and suddenly realized: "That's right, you haven't practiced yet. It's already dark at this time. If you just walk on the mountain road like this, you will probably lose your life."

Nan Fengmian looked left and right as he spoke, and then looked at the gap in the rocks in the distance where the moon had just escaped.

"You have an extraordinary status. You just need to endure it for a while. There is no need for tomorrow. Maybe in a few quarters of an hour, someone will naturally come looking for you."

"You go in, and I will catch some mist and spring breeze for you, blow away the human smell on your body, and cover your figure."

Nan Fengmian decided to lend a helping hand to the disgraced woman in front of him.

Yuelun shook his head.

Nan Fengmian frowned, turned around and moved forward, but the woman was still following behind him.

"You depend on me?"

Nan Fengmian looked up at the sky, then looked down at his wounds. His soul was withered again because of the sword that defeated the Seven-Star Sword Constellation.

At this time, riding on the wind and ascending to the void, the breath is exposed, making it easier for others to detect.

But what kind of person is Nan Fengmian?

If he wanted to get rid of the woman behind him, it would be effortless.

But the frail woman behind him staggered forward, and her body trembled because of a wolf howling in the distance.

Driven by the chivalrous spirit in Nan Fengmian's heart, he simply sat down on the spot and lit another vitality bonfire.

He took out a small knife and peeled off the skin carefully.

Whether it was when he was traveling around the world or when he was in Northern Qin, he had skinned countless beasts and was already familiar with them.

Along the gaps between the skin and flesh, the diaphragm, and the texture of the fascia, the knife in Nan Fengmian's hand flew among the skin and meat. Within a moment, the most tender piece of meat on the giant wolf was cooked by Nan Fengmian and suspended.

Roasting on the campfire.

The warmth emanating from the bonfire also made the already shivering moonlight less uncomfortable.

She sat next to the bonfire, hugging her legs, crying and staring closely at the giant wolf in Nanfeng Mian's cuisine.

On weekdays, even if she accidentally watched Qi's blood sacrifice, she would not be able to watch these bloody scenes.

But today, Yue Lun was afraid that if he relaxed a little, the swordsman in green clothes in front of him would disappear in the blink of an eye.

The reason why Nan Fengmian did not kill the woman in front of him was because she had not practiced cultivation.

The reason why the Qi monks were killed was because they did not want to see the evil prince of Qi in the Hengshan Mansion gain power and continue to kill innocent people.

But as early as during the fight, Nan Fengmian had already sensed that the woman in the sedan chair was powerless and was not an unparalleled monk.

He was not a pedantic swordsman originally, but he felt that killing a weak woman with Xinggu Zhenren would be a disgrace to the famous sword in his waist.

In addition, Jixia Sword Pavilion sent the Seven Star Sword Constellation to protect her with the Seven Star Sword, and even the Sword Master of Qi State brewed a sword intention in the Seven Star Sword, which shows that this woman's identity is extraordinary.

At the very least, it is much higher than the Seven-Star Sword Constellation.

Nan Fengmian wanted to go south with his sword and see the world, but he didn't want to betray Dafu or become a bandit.

In his heart, he still hopes that Dafu will be strong and prosperous, and that the people of Dafu will be better.

Killing several Qi monks was because he was indifferent to the evil deeds in Hengshan Mansion by the officials in the court. It was his punishment for the evil prince.
