Yu Xiaoyao wanted to fight for Murong Longyue. Although she knew that the relationship between the two was master and servant, she could see that Lin Chuan did not act like a master, but was just a little cold towards him.
This is also the reason why Yu Xiaoyao looks at Lin Chuan differently. He is much more pleasing to the eye than those guys who look down on others just because they have noble blood in their bodies. Those people think they are superior to others, but the hypocrisy in their eyes makes her see it.
This is disgusting.
That's why Yu Xiaoyao said this to him. If it were any other royal family, he would probably be playing the harp to a cow and would even treat him with the contempt of a king.
Seeing Lin Chuan's sincere attitude, he felt really guilty, so Yu Xiaoyao stopped talking.
The situation suddenly became a little awkward. Fortunately, Murong Longyue woke up at this time. It was more like being woken up than sleeping.
"Master, you are back!" Murong Longyue lifted the quilt and jumped out of bed.
Murong Longyue's clothes and shoes were still the same as last night. She must have been extremely sleepy and just slept in her clothes. Lin Chuan smiled and nodded, and couldn't help but feel warm in his heart.
The light flashed, and there were two bunches of candied haws in his hand. Murong Longyue rushed forward with a "yeah" sound, holding a bunch in one hand, smiling like a little girl.
As if they were aware of Yu Xiaoyao's gaze and felt that Yu Xiaoyao had been very close to her recently, so they would naturally enjoy the blessing together. The two women lost all image of eating, and in the blink of an eye there were only two bamboo sticks left.
"Eh? Where's Miss Lan? Why haven't you seen her back? Last night..." Murong Longyue rubbed her eyes and looked outside the door, but she didn't see Lan Yin'er.
Lin Chuan waved his hand to interrupt her question and replied: "She has gone back to the Demon Forest. Long Yue, please pack up quickly and we will go to Xiling Ferry together later. We will talk as we walk on the road."
Murong Longyue nodded obediently and didn't ask why she had to pack her things. However, she heard Yu Xiaoyao exclaim in shock: "Xiling Ferry! Rumor has it that you can see the Tongtian River there! I want to go too! Don't even think about giving up this time.
Get off me!"
However, there is a strange scene at Xiling Ferry. It is the most dangerous place of the Minjiang River. The terrain in the north is low-lying, and there is a gap of 3,000 feet between the two countries in the south. When the Minjiang River flows into the border of the north, it falls off a cliff. From a distance, it looks like a river falling from the sky, so there is the Tongtian River.
said.
It is said that the mythical beast Yinglong likes to surf here the most. Although the dragon is not seen, the dragon's roar is often heard, which is very surprising.
Xiling Ferry is just downstream of the "Tianhe". The ferry is a hill-like boulder, which looks like the word "concave". The rapids of the river slow down here, and the boats going down the river take the opportunity to hang up their sails and take advantage of the strange wind.
ferry.
Looking at Yu Xiaoyao's bulging cheeks, Lin Chuan was a little bit dumbfounded: "Miss Yu, this trip is no better than last night. A single trip takes ten days, not to mention the delay. Those bugs of yours will not
Do you need to take care of it? There are still small bones..."
Lin Chuan pointed to several large tanks outside the courtyard. Inside were all the new poisonous insects that Yu Xiaoyao had summoned with the Gu King Xun in the past few days. They needed to be allowed to fight and starve in the tanks for seven days, and then they would start to devour each other, and finally survive.
What comes down is the first Gu, which is then fed and tamed with the Gu Master's blood before it can be used by the Gu Master.
The small bone was in a crystal jar, and every change it made was revealed to everyone. Yu Xiaoyao would go over and take a look at it every hour. If there was any danger, she would intervene with secret techniques.
Yu Xiaoyao suddenly felt like a deflated ball. He pursed his lips and said, "Can you wait for three days? After another three days, my first Gu will come out of the vat. The small bones have basically completed their transformation. As long as these first Gu are eaten,
Not only can your strength be restored, but its toxicity will also be greatly enhanced!"
Yu Xiaoyao originally thought that after saying this, Lin Chuan would happily agree. After all, this was all done for his little bones.
Unexpectedly, Lin Chuan shook his head and said, "Miss Yu doesn't know something. This trip to Xilingdu is not for a trip, but to find my uncle..."
As Lin Chuan spoke, he told the two girls the news he had gleaned from Lei Fang last night.
Yu Xiaoyao was silent for a long time before speaking: "So it's like this... Traveling from the south to the north, first by land and then by water, the fastest is only half a month, but you can't wait any longer! Well, you go first, I will come in three days
Let’s go again!”
Yu Xiaoyao walked out of the room dejectedly, suddenly turned around, stared at the two of them, pointed at the two of them and said loudly: "You two should not have any more bad blood! The enemy is strong and we are weak, so we have to live with it. I don't want to collect the corpses for you at Xiling Ferry."
Lin Chuan and Murong Longyue looked at each other in silence.
…
Qianji City, an inconspicuous house.
There was a middle-aged woman sitting in the hall. She was of no more than middle-class age, but her gestures were quite elegant. Her eyes were quiet and profound. She was the master of Winter Tingfeng Hall—Xu Tingfeng.
An old man was kneeling three feet in front of Xu Tingfeng. The old man had kind eyes and kind eyebrows, and he was mumbling something.
Xu Tingfeng took a sip of tea and took the portrait from the old man's hand. The man in the portrait looked like Lin Chuan.
Xu Tingfeng asked in a warm voice: "Lin Dong never treats useful people badly. The contribution you have accumulated over the years should be quite valuable. Do you want money or heads?"
"The old man is living alone and dying. I have no interest in yellow and white things. The old man's only wish is to witness the death of his enemy." The old man said with tears in his eyes and his whole body trembled.
"Oh? Whose head do you want?"
The hoarse voice startled the old man, and when he raised his head, he saw someone hanging from the beam.
Shi Yan was seen hanging upside down from the beam, like a skinny humanoid bat, with its mouth split open to reveal two rows of yellow-brown teeth.
"There is no need to be afraid. This person is the Master Shi of Sushuang Hall. He needs to be the one to kill the head you want." Xu Tingfeng Wan'er smiled.
Xu Tingfeng was right. Apart from their two hall masters, there were no other Winter Assassins in Qian Ji City at the moment. It was a great honor for the two of them to enter the city. They promised not to show their faces in the city.
There will be no more trouble, and the city lord's palace just gave the two of them an ultimatum.
For these informants, in addition to giving them money, Winter can also help them kill people, provided that their contribution value is higher than the value of the person killed.
The old man came to his senses and said a name, which almost made Shi Yan fall from the beam.
"Leifang!?" Shi Yan turned over and asked in a voice.
The old man hurriedly said: "This man left the city gate with the caravan early in the morning and headed south. When I found out where he was going, he was heading to Shanggui, the capital of the Southern Kingdom. Hall Master Shi could have intercepted him on the way.
"
Shi Yan suddenly laughed strangely, as if he had heard a big joke. It was he who gave Lei Fang the appointment. Now Lei Fang and he are the same hall masters, the master of Benlei Hall.
"Lei Fang forcibly occupied my house and beat Lao Chan's only son to death. Lao Chan came late and only had this son. My old wife died due to dystocia. It was all caused by him that ruined our family. I have inquired about this man and found out that this person is only in the Xuanling realm.
In terms of cultivation, the contribution points I have accumulated over the years should be enough to exchange for his life. I believe that with the power of Hall Master Shi, I can capture him easily."
The old man had a gloomy face, and after saying that, he bowed his head to Shi Yan.
Shi Yan's laughter stopped suddenly and he spat: "It's really not a thing. I feel ashamed for him!"
"You go back and wait for the news. Winter always keeps his promises." Xu Tingfeng waved his hand to signal the old man to leave.
The old man bowed to the two of them again, and then stood up to leave. A calm smile once again filled his weather-beaten old face. When he picked up the wooden stake with only one sugar-coated haws left, he suddenly felt a pain in his heart.
He looked down and saw a palm sticking out from his heart. The five fingers were as straight as a kitchen knife and the palm was soaked in blood.
"Leifang deserves to die, but he is not your enemy. Instead of living in pain, it is better to get together with his family, because only the dead will keep their promises." Shi Yan withdrew his palm.
The old man fell to the ground along with the wooden stake in his hand. The old man looked at the candied haws in a pool of blood and murmured to himself: "If I had known, I would have given it all to him..."
