The moon is bright and the stars are sparse, two human figures are gliding on the Wujiang River.
Dongfang Liren was dressed in a python suit, his figure was as light as a swallow, rising and falling on the calm river, his eyes always on the official road along the river bank, looking for traces of the Night Terror Hall.
Xuanji's white dress is like snow in front of her. Her demeanor has changed a lot compared to the dignified and steady manner in the military camp. She holds a wine gourd in her hand, her stunning face is slightly flushed with intoxication, and her posture of walking on the water is also '
Riding a donkey upside down'.
Although it looks like he may fall into the water at any time when he is swaying, he is just like a tumbler. No matter how he sways, his movements are light and agile without any glitches. He is even a few points faster than Dongfang Liren, teaching him along the way.
:
"Leaving people, rushing on the road, and escaping after being chased are two different things. Normally, when using Qinggong, you should be light and elegant, and don't have to be so tight at every step..."
Dongfang Liren naturally understands this truth, but she has tried her best to keep up with Master Jiu Mengzi. She wants to be more elegant and light and pay attention to her manners, but her strength does not allow it.
However, if this king is not good enough, Dongfang Liren will be embarrassed to say it, so he pays attention to his posture and becomes more calm.
The two set out from a small town along the river without riding horses, so they had to use Qinggong to get there. They were afraid of passing by the Night Terror Hall on the way back, so they kept walking along the official road.
Walking for hundreds of miles, it was not too stressful based on the abilities of the two of us, but there was nothing urgent. Along the way, we enjoyed the beautiful scenery of the mountains and rivers that were about to enter autumn, and the pace was not too fast.
When the moon came over the branches, the two came to the outside of Wanshui Town. Looking up, they could see that the center of the town was brightly lit, with many people walking around on the streets. The wine shops were lined up, and people could still hear the chatter:
"I heard that all the big shots in Zezhou died. Fan Laoba was among them. He died miserably..."
"Good death! I used to run a boat and was kidnapped by Fan Laoba on the Qingjiang River. I used to think these people were so powerful, but I didn't expect that an official from the black government came over and killed them all in the blink of an eye...
…”
"That's not true. Those people in the arena all boast that they are as courteous as the emperor when they meet him. In fact, if you think about it with your brain, you will know that the imperial court is really afraid of these reckless people in the arena. How can it control the world?
I usually don’t have time to talk to you..."
…
Dongfang Liren landed on the roof and frowned slightly when he heard these chats.
Fan Baye is a water tyrant on the rivers in Zezhou. He is on the wanted list of the black government, but because he has no fixed address and is a wary person, he cannot be caught at all.
Hearing that Master Fan Ba was dead, Dongfang Liren knew that Ye Jingtang must have run an errand, but he was still a little confused:
"Why are Fan Laoba here? And he was hit by the Night Terror Hall?"
Master Xuanji smelled the smell of blood in the night wind and looked towards the center of the town. There were many street gangsters washing the streets with buckets. The old streets were in a mess and full of broken walls and ruins.
"The formation is quite large, it looks like an ambush..."
"Ambush?"
Master Xuanji squinted at the traces in the center of the town. From the corner of his eye, he suddenly spotted an inconspicuous little bird squatting on a house in the distance, eating dried meat leisurely.
Master Xuanji knew that Ye Jingtang was staying there, so he said:
"Just go and ask and you will know."
After saying that, he took Dongfang Liren down to the street and walked towards the center of the town together.
But not long after he walked out, Master Xuanji’s ears suddenly twitched, and she heard a few subtle words:
"Little thief, don't forget, I was trying to help you in the first place..."
…
——
The murderous Black Yamen King of Hell settled in the inn. Although the place was not cleared, several guests who had stayed at the inn quietly checked out, leaving three people in the guest room.
Pei Xiangjun injured his Qi and was unable to participate in the group. He could only lie down on the pillow with a little aggrievement and close his eyes to recuperate.
In another room on the second floor, a candle lamp is placed on the dressing table.
Ye Jingtang leaned against the bedside and took a break. He took a water glass from the dressing table and poured water for Ning'er very considerately.
Luo Ning hugged the thin quilt and leaned against her. Her hair was spread on her back. She was a little messy. There was a blush on her cheeks, but her eyes were full of anger, as if she had just been raped. She didn't even give him a glass of water.
He answered, tilting his head and looking inside, as if he didn't want to talk to you.
Ye Jingtang was not surprised by this attitude. Ning'er had just brought him over to treat him and made three arrangements beforehand. In summary, it was - you are not allowed to move, I will move myself.
Naturally, he would not refuse such a considerate thing, and just lay down and let Ning'er take care of herself.
But Ning'er was as always half-prompting and half-prompting, taking the initiative but not that proactively. Her movements were gentle and subtle, taking her time.
He had taken too many tonics and hadn't fully digested them. He couldn't control himself midway and turned against the others. Ning'er cried and grabbed the sheets to beg for mercy, but he kept gagging and then ignored him.
Seeing Ning'er hugging the thin quilt and about to cry, Ye Jingtang's eyes were full of shame and he put the water glass to his mouth:
"I was wrong. Didn't you take too much tonic? I will be obedient next time. Come and have a drink of water..."
Luo Ning didn't know how many times she had heard "next time", how could she believe the words of this girl on the bed? She turned her head to avoid the water glass, her beautiful peach blossom eyes were serious and serious:
"Little thief, don't forget that I was trying to help you in the first place. When you coaxed me, you said, 'You will listen to what I say.' When did you listen to me later?"
Ye Jingtang smiled and put his arms around Luo Ning's shoulders:
"I won't do it next time. Come on, be good and have a drink of water."
Luo Ning had no choice but to deal with the shameless night terror. She opened her red lips and took a few sips of water, then let go of the thin quilt. Based on the mentality of long-term pain being worse than short-term pain, she wanted to get ready for sleep as soon as possible.
Noticing that Ye Jingtang's eyes were moving downwards and he hesitated to speak, Luo Ning understood the meaning without using words. She sat astride her lap, held the small watermelon in her hands, leaned over and said with disdain:
"That, that, that's really...how do you look like a little kid who is not even a full moon..."
Ye Jingtang's eyebrows were full of smiles, he opened his mouth to receive the reward, put his hand on the moon, and just pinched it twice, he suddenly heard from outside:
"Jiji?!"
"Ji~Come here..."
…
Luo Ning heard the noise and quickly moved away. As a result...
Bo~
Luo Ning found that Ye Jingtang was still reluctant to leave, and her eyebrows stood up in anger. She raised her hand and knocked on the stinky man's forehead:
"Someone is coming! Why don't you get out quickly?!"
"Okay, don't be angry..."
Night Terror Hall didn't expect Benben to come over at night, so he quickly stood up, put on his robe, and hurried down to the second floor.
——
It was taboo to release dead people in an inn, so the four corpses were placed diagonally across the alley, with a few thugs watching over them.
When Ye Jingtang came out of the inn lobby, he looked up and saw Benben wearing a very eye-catching silver python robe, standing in front of several corpses to look at them.
Master Xuanji was holding Niaoniao with his arms and rubbing his head with his hands:
"Giggle?"
"Ji~"
Ye Jingtang straightened out his clothes and walked up quickly:
"Your Highness, Fairy Lu. Why are you here?"
Master Xuanji turned around and walked towards the street: "King Wu has caught it. It's fine tonight. Come and have a look. You guys talk first, I'll take it for a walk."
When Dongfang Liren saw Xuanyuan Hongzhi's body, his expression was quite ugly. When Ye Jingtang came to him, he frowned and asked:
"Junshantai secretly sent someone to kill you? Are you not injured?"
Ye Jingtang Feng Qingyundan raised her hand to indicate her body:
"A few people joined forces and came here to kill me. It's okay. I can use the eight-step mad sword. Junshantai will definitely be afraid of me. It's not unusual for me to do this."
Dongfang Liren's eyes were slightly cold: "This Xuanyuan Dynasty is really wanton, even my own people dare to touch..."
Ye Jingtang advised: "The death of Junshantai was Xuanyuan Hongzhi's own initiative. If the matter got serious, the title of Marquis of Junshan would at most be removed. Xuanyuan Hongzhi assassinated the official and executed him according to law, and the case was settled. As for the past personal grudges, I
You can just go to the Xuanyuan Dynasty to solve it yourself. If Your Highness helps me punish Junshantai, as a member of the black government, I will have no excuse to trouble Junshantai in the future."
Ye Jingtang was not injured, but Xuanyuan Hongzhi was directly beaten to death. No matter how serious the matter was, Xuanyuan Chao, the founding prince, could not be beheaded in public. Dongfang Liren thought for a while and nodded:
"You have to exercise your own discretion. If you can't solve it, just tell me. I will lead tens of thousands of troops to surround Junshan Terrace. At worst, I will be scolded by the officials afterwards for being domineering and killing Zhongliang for several years. I can't do anything to you."
Dongfang Liren's words can be described as domineering, but how could Ye Jingtang let Benben get a bad name because of his own grievances? He just shook his head and smiled...
——
On the other side, in the hotel room.
Luo Ning's conditioning was interrupted, so she obviously couldn't just lie naked on the bed and look up at the big moon, waiting for the little thief to come back and continue.
After putting on clothes in the Night Terror Hall and going out, Luo Ning got the skirt, dressed neatly inside and out, put the soft sword around her waist, and neatly arranged her bun. Then she got up and went out, preparing to visit Du Shou Kong next door.
My boudoir’s third wife.
But when she walked to the door, Luo Ning heard something coming from outside:
Puff~
The sound of birds flapping their wings...
?
Luo Ning was a little confused, thinking that the birds saw that she was free and came back to ask for food, so she raised her hand and opened the door.
Squeak——
The two doors opened, and the dim light in the room spilled onto the wooden floor of the hallway.
The first thing that catches the eye is a slim-fitting white skirt with pink petals embroidered on the skirt. Her legs are very slender, with a graceful hip line and a slender waist. Hanging from her waist is a red wine gourd and a hand guard.
It is the sword of the yin-yang fish; the skirt of the clothes bulges on the chest, drawing a perfect arc that is neither too big nor too small.
Further up, there is a face with a clear and beautiful face, the corners of the lips are raised with a hint of evil, the clear eyes are looking at her, and the green-white jade fingers of the right hand are covering the eyes of the birds...
The big stupid bird thought he was joking, and stood on his arm in a very cute way, shaking his head...
!!
Luo Ning's cold and unparalleled face froze suddenly, her eyes widened visibly, and she subconsciously closed her hands, trying to slam the door shut.
But unfortunately, before the door was completely closed, someone blocked it with his foot.
When Xuanji and Luo Ning lived together, Luo Ning was still a little chivalrous girl in her late teens. Although they hadn't seen each other for more than ten years, Luo Ning had practiced the "Everlasting Beauty Picture". Apart from her temperament, which was much more mature, she had almost no physical changes.
Changes, still as pink as before...
For this reason, just at the first glance, Master Xuanji recognized the beautiful young woman in the room with the lingering spring on her face, and her eyes were very surprised:
"Ning'er?"
Luo Ning's face turned pale. In panic, she just wanted to close the door and call Ye Jingtang back to rescue her.
But as a leader's wife, she couldn't even defeat Sanniang, so she was no match for Xuanji.
Before Luo Ning could exert any force, Master Xuanji had already opened the door lightly, threw the confused bird out who knew he was in trouble, and closed the door again.
Click~
Luo Ning's eyes widened and she looked around with her peripheral vision. She seemed to want to run away, but she knew she couldn't. She could only maintain her momentum and act calm and calm:
"Shui Shui? Why are you here? I...I happened to pass by here..."
The sound is getting smaller and smaller.
After the surprise in Xuanji's eyes disappeared, it turned into solemnity. He walked into the room slowly and wanted to sit on the bed, but he smelled a strange smell...
?!
Master Xuanji guessed something, a flash of shock flashed in her eyes, but she remained calm and sat on the chair, squinting slightly and looking at her bewildered ex-girlfriend:
"Ning'er, when you left without saying goodbye, I went to Nanxiao Mountain to pick you up in person, but you refused to leave. You were still so heartless, saying that you really liked Xue Baijin and asked me not to ruin your marriage... Now you have become Xue Baijin
Madam, we are not at odds with each other. Even if I miss my old friendship, I have to capture you and hand you over to the court. Are you sure you happened to pass by here?"
Luo Ning was so heartbroken that she didn't even dare to look at Xuanji. Now she just wanted to hide behind the man and leave the matter to the little thief.
But the little thief was so heartless that he went to accompany the Queen...
How to do how to do……
Luo Ning clasped her hands in her sleeves, slowly came to sit across from the tea cup, and pretended to be calm:
"I...my story is a long story. I had no intention of rebelling. I went to Nanxiao Mountain because of a family feud, and Yuxu Mountain could not teach me martial arts, so I was asked to find Qianfo Temple to seek revenge, so
…”
"So you committed yourself to Xue Baijin and asked him to help you get revenge?"
"No, she just asked her to teach me martial arts. I'll avenge my revenge myself..."
"oh……"
Master Xuanji nodded thoughtfully:
"You have been with Xue Baijin for more than ten years, and you found out that he was duplicitous and deceived you. So you found another job and found the Night Terror Hall again?"
"..."
Luo Ning raised her cheeks, her eyes a little annoyed. After all, what Master Xuanji said completely described her as a woman who would not hesitate to rely on her looks to cling to men in order to achieve her goals!
But in the eyes of outsiders, this seems to be the case...
Luo Ning didn't want her former friend to misunderstand her like this, so she had to explain:
"I am not a woman who is quick and easy..."
"Then you marry Xue Baijin first, and now you marry Ye Jingtang..."
Master Xuanji glanced at the bed, and the meaning was self-explanatory.
Luo Ning felt ashamed in her heart and secretly gritted her teeth and explained:
"Last year, Qiu Tianhe was arrested. I...I came to the capital on the orders of the Pingtian Sect to run a rescue operation. By chance, I bumped into the Night Terror Hall who had just entered the capital. He...he saw that I was pretty, so he teased me and entangled me.
If you don’t let me go, I can’t help it..."
Luo Ning was telling the truth, after all, the little thief was like this in the beginning.
But what Luo Ning didn't expect was that as soon as she pulled the little thief out to carry the thunder, Shuishui on the opposite side frowned:
"You are not young anymore. Don't push things onto children. Ye Jingtang has a chivalrous heart and a good character. How could he be deceived by beauty and do something to force a woman?"
??
Luo Ning was stunned when she heard this. It was clearly saying that Ye Jingtang is young and has a good character. It must be you, the bad sister, who seduced others and wants to shift the responsibility to Ye Jingtang.
That would be fine if that were the case, but what she said was obviously the truth!
Still a child?
Besides loving to eat watermelon, what else is wrong with Night Terror Hall?
Luo Ning sat up a little straighter: "Shui Shui, I've been with you for more than a year, and you still don't know my temper? What kind of woman do I look like?"
Master Xuanji knows that Luo Ning used to be pure, but people can change. More than ten years have passed, and Luo Ning is still hanging out with the Pingtian Sect. Who knows if her character has changed drastically now?
But Ye Jingtang was not like that. A few days ago, she hugged him and rubbed her against her. Ye Jingtang remained motionless and showed no signs of lust.
She is no worse looking than Ning'er, and she has the blessing of being the 'number one female master in the world', which is enough to prove that Ye Jingtang is not a man with bad conduct.
However, these arguments obviously cannot be explained clearly. Master Xuanji just said:
"I'm very good at judging people. Night Terror Hall is definitely not what you said..."
"That's because he changed his mind! After he bullied me, I was very angry, and he changed his ways. I... I also saw that he was not a bad character, so I softened my heart and spared him... I still follow him now because I want to
He went to Pingtian to teach, but he refused to agree with the court and refused to allow me to leave..."
Master Xuanji listened for a moment and slowly understood the whole story:
"Ye Jingtang was interested in sex at first and ruined your innocence. You saw that he was talented and a good person, so you didn't blame him, and then you fell in love with him after going back and forth. Now you want to cut off the bad relationship and return to Xue Baijin, but he can't let you go.
Go away, are you just deceiving yourself and others, hiding for a day?"
Luo Ning pursed her lips and wanted to say that she had no feelings and was tied here by force, but Shuishui definitely didn't believe it and could only nod her head casually.
Master Xuanji looked at her old friend from ‘Hongxing Chuqiang’, was silent for a moment, and shook her head slightly:
"You're like this... What should Xue Baijin do? If he knew that the wife he was marrying and Ye Jingtang had run away, you two would probably be cut to pieces..."
Luo Ning felt that if Bai Jin found out that she was cheating, he would at most hang the thief up and beat her up, and then 'divorce' her.
However, if this matter spreads out, Xue Baijin and Hepingtian Sect may turn into a joke on the spot. She will not be able to go out to meet people for the rest of her life, so she responded seriously:
"I will handle this matter myself. Ye Jingtang has a great sense of justice and wants peace in the world, so he serves in the Hei Yamen to serve King Jing. I think what he said is reasonable, and I will find a way to persuade Bai Jin to be recruited.
, you must not tell outsiders about this. Once the news gets out, it will be irresistible..."
?
Master Xuanji frowned: "The people from the imperial court snatched Xue Baijin's married wife and wanted him to surrender. Do you think the 'number one in the world' in the secular world is the Clay Bodhisattva? Xue Baijin knew this and rushed to Yun'an University
It's easy to cause trouble in the capital, but if you get angry and mobilize more than 100,000 troops to cause trouble in Tiannan, do you know how many people will die?"
Luo Ning felt that Shuishui was not as easy to fool as Sanniang, and there were some things that she couldn't talk nonsense about, so she could only say:
"I guarantee with my life that this kind of thing will not happen. Bai Jin...she is different from ordinary men. Well...she also likes men. She and I are husband and wife, but she doesn't care about the relationship between men and women..."
?
Master Xuanji sat upright, took the wine gourd from her waist, her eyes were burning:
"Is Xue Baijin as good as Long Yang?"
"..."
Luo Ning felt like she would be beaten to death by Bai Jin, but at this time, she could only nod her head:
"That's true. Don't talk nonsense. I will handle this matter well and give you a satisfactory explanation..."
"What are you telling me? This matter has nothing to do with me."
After Master Xuanji took a sip of wine, he frowned and asked:
"Does Night Terror Hall know this?"
Luo Ning was afraid that Master Xuanji would doubt Ye Jingtang's loyalty, causing Ye Jingtang to be jealous of the empress and Prince Jing, so she quickly explained:
"He knew this, and because he felt sorry for me, he kept hiding my identity and wanted to persuade me to abandon the dark side and turn to the bright side..."
Master Xuanji rubbed the wine gourd, nodded slightly, and after thinking about it for a moment, asked again:
"Does Xue Baijin have a picture of a singing dragon in his hand?"
Luo Ning blinked her eyes, shook her head and said:
"You can ask Xue Baijin yourself about this. I am just the leader's wife, taking care of some internal affairs."
Master Xuanji wanted to ask, but facing Xue Baijin, who was already at the top of her game, her chances of winning were not great, so she skipped the topic and instead said:
"Since you have abandoned the dark side and turned to the bright side, you will never want to return to Nanxiao Mountain to renew your relationship. If you try to abduct Ye Jingtang to rebel, you know the consequences. As the 'Emperor's Master', I cannot cherish my old feelings for you."
Luo Ning pursed her lips: "I won't instigate a rebellion at night, just don't worry."
"Love comes first. Men can do anything. I don't believe it if you say it."
Master Xuanji stood up and raised his hand gently.
Dong Dong~
Luo Ning's fourteen sticky cloud skills were taught by Master Xuanji. He didn't react at all, so he softened and leaned on the chair:
"what you do?"
"I'm going to try the Night Terror Hall to prevent you from leaking information and colluding with me to confess. I'm going to leave now, and we can catch up with each other later."
After Master Xuanji finished speaking, he came to the mirror, adjusted his clothes a little, and made a "not angry but powerful" expression. After making sure that there was nothing wrong, he turned the wine gourd with his fingers and floated slowly.
go out.
Luo Ning knew the temperament of this crazy best friend very well, and she expected that the little thief would suffer a lot.
But since she couldn't protect herself, she couldn't say anything. She could only hope that the little thief who used his quick talk on her every day would be clever and turn this big thing into a trivial matter.
Squeak~
The door closed and the room became quiet.
Luo Ning listened to the footsteps of Master Xuanji leaving and secretly breathed a sigh of relief. She was secretly worried when a low voice suddenly asked from the next door:
"Hu Meizi, is Leader Pingtian really as good as Longyang?"
?
Luo Ning's eyes were slightly fierce: "Don't meddle in other people's business!"
"Tch~ Why haven't I seen you being cruel in front of Master Xuanji? You're going to be so arrogant..."
