Barren mountains and wild ridges.
A lonely man and a widowed woman.
There was silence and an awkward atmosphere.
Jin Zhihui had a lot of things in her heart that she wanted to say to Niu Dawa, but she swallowed them all when she reached her lips.
Niu Dawa's indifferent attitude towards her and his strong fighting power made her feel that Niu Dawa no longer looked down on her. She couldn't help but feel depressed and felt that she had no face to mention that hazy feeling.
Niu Dawa suddenly stopped, looked at Jin Zhihui and said: "Just send it here. You are injured, go back and rest quickly. I'm leaving, you... take care of me."
He wanted to say something, but when the words came to his lips, he didn't say them out. In the end, only the word "treasure" was left.
"Take care of yourself too!" Jin Zhihui responded.
Niu Dawa nodded, then said goodbye, turned around and strode away.
Jin Zhihui looked at Niu Dawa's retreating figure, and suddenly felt a heartache in her heart. A voice in her mind told her that if Niu Dawa was allowed to leave like this, then the relationship between her and Niu Dawa would really be broken.
Already.
"You...you don't have anything to say to me?" Jin Zhihui suddenly took a few steps forward and asked loudly towards Niu Dawa's leaving figure.
She didn't want to just break up with Niu Dawa, because the suffocating pain in her heart clearly told her that Niu Dawa had broken into her heart and occupied an important position.
Niu Dawa paused when he heard the sound and asked without turning around: "Are you going to Yaowang Valley?"
Jin Zhihui was startled when he heard this, and suddenly understood what the problem was. Niu Dawa was angry that she was going to Yaowang Valley to find Yu Wenrui, and immediately replied without hesitation: "How can I go to Yaowang Valley? I
Not going to Yaowang Valley."
"Everyone from your school is going, how can you not go?"
"I won't go." Jin Zhihui said firmly, fearing that Niu Dawa wouldn't believe it, so she continued to explain: "Just now when Master proposed to go to Yaowang Valley to seek asylum, I had already decided not to go with Master and the others.
Yes, I didn’t bring it up on the spot because I was afraid of refuting Master’s face, and there was no other intention.”
Niu Dawa turned around and looked at Jin Zhihui and asked, "Then where are you going alone?"
"The mountain gate was occupied by thieves. I am homeless and have nowhere to go. I think I will have no choice but to wander around the world." Jin Zhihui suddenly felt sad, her nose became sore, and she shed two lines of sad tears.
"Don't cry, I'll find a place for you." Niu Dawa saw Jin Zhihui crying and quickly comforted her.
"Where to go?"
"Go to Yancheng. I heard that there is a house you built in Yaxuan. It is your other home. You can live there at any time. Or... go north to the Imperial Capital, the Imperial Palace of Imperial Capital. I live there, and you can go there at any time.
live."
Jin Zhihui raised her hand to wipe the tears from her face. Instead of making a decision in a hurry, she asked Niu Dawa: "Where are you going next?"
She wants to follow Niu Dawa.
But if Niu Dawa is planning to leave the southern border, she can only give up this idea.
The mountain gate of her Piaomiao Palace was occupied by the enemy, and she must find an opportunity to recapture it. As a disciple of Piaomiao Palace, she must stay in the southern border and prepare to fight for the sect.
Niu Dawa read Jin Zhihui's thoughts from her eyes, and a certain string in her heart was touched. Suddenly she felt the urge to stay by Jin Zhihui's side to help her and protect her, but he was immediately overtaken by his reason.
He dispersed and said: "I'm going to the Western Regions soon."
"Western Region? So far?!" Jin Zhihui was shocked when he heard this, and then showed a disappointed expression.
The Western Region is so far away, she can't go there.
Niu Dawa nodded and said, "It's indeed a bit far."
"When...are you coming back?" Jin Zhihui asked in a low voice with slightly red cheeks.
"You may come back as soon as you go, or you may come back after a long time. It mainly depends on-" Niu Dawa stopped abruptly in the middle of her words.
"What are you looking at?" Jin Zhihui couldn't help but ask.
"See if anyone misses me. If anyone wants me to come back, I will naturally come back quickly. If no one wants me to come back, I will naturally not be in a hurry to come back." Niu Dawa looked into Jin Zhihui's eyes and said.
Jin Zhihui's face flushed red to the root of her neck, and a flash of panic flashed in her eyes. She avoided looking at Niu Dawa, but after squirming for a while, she still mustered up the courage to say: "I... of course I am.
Want...I want you to come back."
Although she could tell that Niu Dawa was deliberately teasing her, she was really afraid that Niu Dawa would never come back after he left. At the same time, she also took this opportunity to express her feelings to Niu Dawa.
Her pursuit of love has always been more passionate and bold than other women.
"Haha..." Niu Dawa laughed happily when he heard this, which made Jin Zhihui's cheeks feel as hot as fire.
After laughing, he said loudly: "You go and live in Yancheng. When things happen in the Western Region, I will call brother Zhou, Xiaopeng and Taiping to help you take back the mountain gate. Then I will kill Cangkong to get it back from you."
It's fair to say that if you dare to bully my wife, I will beat them until their faces are red."
"Well, I'll wait for you to come back." Jin Zhihui nodded shyly.
Niu Dawa looked at Jin Zhihui's delicate and shy appearance, it was really beautiful and delicious, and his heart couldn't help but flutter. He quickly moved his eyes away from Jin Zhihui's face, calmed down, gritted his teeth,
With a hard heart, he said: "I'm leaving!"
He was afraid that if he stayed any longer, he would be seduced by Jin Zhihui and would be reluctant to leave.
"You bastard!"
Jin Zhihui wanted to say a few words of farewell, but she never thought that Niu Dawa would leave very simply. Before she could say anything, Niu Dawa had disappeared from the place in a flash, making her stamp her feet and curse in anger.
"You bastard, don't leave for another year or two." Jin Zhihui muttered to herself as she looked at the place where Niu Dawa disappeared. She was a little worried about the loss, fearing that Niu Dawa would forget her.
"Definitely not this time." Niu Dawa suddenly left and returned, stepped out of the folding space, stood in front of Jin Zhihui, and answered her question.
"!" Jin Zhihui was suddenly startled, glared at Niu Dawa angrily, and said angrily: "Didn't you leave? Why are you back again? Don't be ashamed to eavesdrop on other people's conversations!"
"I...that...want to..." Niu Dawa avoided looking into Jin Zhihui's eyes and hesitated, unable to say a complete sentence for a long time.
"What are you thinking about?" Jin Zhihui looked at Niu Dawa's squirming look and wondered in her mind what Niu Dawa wanted to do, and then a blush quickly appeared on her cheeks.
"Can I hug...hug you?" Niu Dawa asked softly.
Jin Zhihui bowed her head shyly and remained silent.
When Niu Dawa saw that there was something going on, she couldn't help but feel excited. She took two steps forward and opened her arms to embrace Jin Zhihui.
"Ahem..." A dry cough suddenly came from not far behind Jin Zhihui.
"ah!"
Jin Zhihui screamed in fright and ran away from Niu Dawa like a frightened rabbit.
Niu Dawa was also startled, as if he had been caught as a thief. But after the brief fright, he immediately looked at the guy who disturbed his good deeds with an angry look, but he saw that the person who came was Jin Zhihui's third son.
After his uncle Shi Xinlan, he suddenly lost his temper.
"I'm deeply sorry for disturbing the young master's good deeds." Shi Xinlan walked over and apologized to Niu Dawa with a teasing look.
"..." Niu Dawa touched her nose awkwardly.
"Uncle Third Master——" Jin Zhihui shouted to Shi Xinlan in a voice as loud as a mosquito's fly, wanting to find a crack in the ground and crawl in.
"Uncle Master is someone who has been through this before, so he understands..." Shi Xinlan stopped beside Jin Zhihui, and stroked Jin Zhihui's head as if he was someone who had been through this before.
Everyone understands the elongated tone, which makes Jin Zhihui ashamed.
Shi Xinlan looked at Niu Dawa and asked: "Mr. Niu, can I let Nujia and Zhihui have a few words in private?"
"Ahem... um... I have nothing to do. I'm leaving now." Niu Dawa laughed dryly.
"I also have a few urgent words to say to the young master. Can the young master wait a moment?" Shi Xinlan stopped Niu Dawa who was about to leave.
"Okay. You guys chat, I'll go over there and take a look." Niu Dawa responded and walked in a random direction. Shi Xinlan wanted to whisper to Jin Zhihui, but he wisely walked away to avoid it.
Shi Xinlan and Jin Zhihui chatted for about a cup of tea, making Jin Zhihui's eyes red and tears falling uncontrollably.
"Master Niu, come here."
After Jin Zhihui calmed down a little, Shi Xinlan waved to Niu Dawa in the distance.
Niu Dawa came back and saw that Jin Zhihui had cried. Looking at her red eyes, it seemed that she was crying quite hard. She couldn't help but wonder what Shi Xinlan said to her to make her so sad.
"Mr. Niu, I still remember that last year at the Qi family's martial arts training ground in Yancheng, you screamed and shouted that you wanted our Hui'er to marry you and become your mother-in-law. I wonder if what you said that day still counts?"
Niu Dawa was stunned for a moment when he heard this. He didn't expect that Shi Xinlan would suddenly ask him such an unexpected question, but he did not hesitate and nodded: "Of course."
Because he already knew Jin Zhihui's thoughts.
"Then I will entrust Hui'er to the young master." Shi Xinlan took Jin Zhihui's hand and took a step forward, pushing her in front of Niu Dawa.
"This-" Niu Dawa scratched his head.
too suddenly.
"What?" Shi Xinlan frowned.
Jin Zhihui also felt a thump in her heart.
"This junior hasn't prepared the betrothal gift yet." Niu Dawa said awkwardly.
"Giggle, you are really interesting. As for the betrothal gift, you can make up for it when you have time in the future. Let's agree in advance, it must not be less." Shi Xinlan said with a smile.
"It's guaranteed to be a lot." Niu Dawa assured, patting her chest.
"Well, it's getting late, you two should leave now," Shi Xinlan said.
"——" Niu Dawa looked stunned and said in her heart: "What, just left?"
He straightened his expression, looked at Shi Xinlan and said: "Why do I feel like I am leaving an orphan on my deathbed? Are you going to find the Cangkong faction for a fight to the death?"
Shi Xinlan laughed dumbly and said: "Young master, you are overthinking. We are not that stupid. There are only so few people left in the Piaomiao Palace and we dare not make any more mistakes. So before the situation in the southern border is clear, how can we dare to act rashly."
"That's good." Niu Dawa felt relieved when he heard this, but frowned and said: "Living under someone else's roof is not a long-term solution. If you are not used to staying in Yaowang Valley, you can go to Yancheng and squeeze in Tingyaxuan.
, barely enough to live in.
Or simply go to the Imperial Capital, where thousands of people can live in the Guowei Mansion, which is spacious and safe.
When the situation in the southern border becomes clearer, it won't be too late to fight back."
"Thank you, Master. If you are not used to living in Yaowang Valley, we will definitely consider Master's suggestion." Shi Xinlan thanked you.
"In addition, I would like to mention one more thing, Yu Wenrui is not a kind person, you'd better be careful." Niu Dawa solemnly reminded.
Shi Xinlan nodded and said: "Don't worry, young master, we are going to Yaowang Valley, not Yu Wenrui, so we won't have much interaction with him."
"Then... I will take Zhihui away?" Niu Dawa saw that Shi Xinlan did not entrust Jin Zhihui to him as a dying orphan, and they seemed to have thought very clearly about how to go next, so she did not
Again.
As for why Nangong Zhu and Shi Xinlan suddenly entrusted Jin Zhihui to him, and why Jin Zhihui agreed to go with him, he knew in his heart that it was definitely not just because of his relationship with Jin Zhihui. There must be other reasons. However,
He was not in a hurry to ask, because he would know these questions later by asking Jin Zhihui slowly on the way.
"Let's go, treat Hui'er well and don't bully her." Shi Xinlan nodded.
"Don't worry, I will definitely protect her and not let her suffer any injustice." Niu Dawa promised.
Jin Zhihui knelt down towards Shi Xinlan, kowtowed and said goodbye: "Uncle Third Master, please take care of yourself."
"Take care, too." Shi Xinlan responded.
Jin Zhihui kowtowed in the direction of the cave where Nangong Zhu and others were hiding, and said: "Master, my disciple is unfilial and cannot serve you by my side. You must take care of yourself."
"Let's go." Shi Xinlan gave Niu Dawa a look and motioned for him to take Jin Zhihui away.
Niu Dawa immediately used the power of space, rolled up Jin Zhihui and disappeared in a space jump. When he reappeared, he was already in the sky a hundred feet away.
"Ah! What are you doing?!" Jin Zhihui was shocked because Niu Dawa held her in his arms, making her feel ashamed and frightened.
"You are injured and cannot move around. If I hold you like this, you can heal your injuries at ease." Niu Dawa said confidently.
"You... let me go quickly, I'm so embarrassed to be seen by others." Jin Zhihui struggled shyly in Niu Dawa's arms, but she couldn't open Niu Dawa's thick arms at all, and finally just
Can give up.
"Why did your master and uncle suddenly hand you over to me?" Niu Dawa asked out of curiosity while using space jump to rush on.
"The situation in the southern border made them feel that the world was about to be in chaos, and the life and death of the sect was unpredictable. Master entrusted me with the martial arts inheritance of Piao Miao Palace, saying it was just in case, leaving a little spark for Piao Miao Palace." Jin Zhihui.
Answered briefly.
"Your master is really thoughtful, but he didn't consider taking refuge in Yaowang Valley." Niu Dawa had a very bad impression of Yaowang Valley, so in his eyes, Yaowang Valley was not a good place to go.
"My master has a close relationship with Senior Yaoxian."
"That's it." Niu Dawa chuckled, having a different understanding of "a close relationship".
Jin Zhihui did not explain, because Niu Dawa understood correctly. She changed the subject and asked: "Where are we going?"
"Go to Tianbaoshan."
"Why go to Tianbaoshan?"
"A few days ago, the fourth child and I escorted the prince on his southern tour. We were attacked by masters and the team was broken up. I guess the fourth child should have taken the prince to Tianbaoshan to seek protection from the old Zen Master Wan Zhang.
We go to Tianbaoshan to find them, and at the same time inform Tianbaoshan of the Wentian Sect’s move to annihilate the southern sect, and let them think of ways to deal with it.”
