Section 40 Hanging on the hook
The sunset is extremely beautiful, but it is near dusk. Night falls, the world is dark, everything is silent, only a few candlelights are swaying. A series of light footsteps slowly approach, stopping behind him for a long time without saying a word. Wei Shiqi waited for a moment
, said, "It's dark and there's no scenery to see. If you don't nourish your spirit, your body will not be able to hold on."
"I'm uneasy and can't sleep..." Xia Qian's tone showed confusion and trouble.
"Worrying that we can't get to the three towns in Hebei?"
"I'm a little worried, but fortunately... Mr. Yang, how many strangers are there in the world like the "Bronze Dragon"?"
Wei Shiqi said lightly: "The strange man is not a question. He is just eroding his body by demonic power. Anyone pulls out of the immortal city of Daliang Kingdom, and it is enough to kill it."
Xia Qian said: "That's right, after all, immortals and mortals have different paths. If a cultivator with such supernatural powers does not have other plans or has to, how many people will be willing to enter the world!"
Wei Shiqi said: "These characters are mostly of origin. If you look at the roots carefully, you can always see some clues. Why, are you interested in practicing Taoism?"
Xia Qian sighed and said, "Dad is old and weak, and he is determined to seek immortality and ask for the Tao. There is a Taoist man in the deep mountain. The Taoist name is 'Lotus', which seems to be a first-class figure in the Taoist monk. Dad has a deep friendship with him, but I don't know this time.
Can the army escape the disaster by searching the mountains and checking the sea? "Seeing Xia Yiwei's face, putting Xia Quji under house arrest and retirement was just her private speculation. She was confidential about Xia Hui, but she actually had no idea
, but she had to comfort her second brother in this way, that Tongling was a dangerous place and a dangerous situation, and once she fell into the opponent, the ending would be unimaginable.
Wei Shiqi said: "I'm afraid I can't escape."
"Why?" Xia Qian was stunned.
"Master Luo Fengchi may be a cultivator who left the fairy city privately, and may have other information on his orders to act. No matter what, he is unreasonable in obstructing the Han army and protecting the old leader of Xia."
“Unreasonable?”
"The Kingdom of Daliang was established in accordance with the will of heaven and was supported by the Immortal City. In the army of the court, there were cultivators. If they opposed them, it would mean that they would be against the Immortal City. Although Taoist Luo Cai and the Old Gang Master Xia had a personal relationship, the cultivators from the Immortal City came to the door to ask for a cultivator.
What step can he do? At most, he should protect him carefully. If Taoist Luo Cai is of unknown origin and incorrect background, he may not be able to protect himself."
Xia Qian was silent for a long time and said quietly: "Why... are you thinking so much?"
"Just speculation, if a practitioner practices Taoism with his own body, he will be a 'person' after all, with seven emotions and six desires, seeking profit and avoiding harm, which is no different from a mortal."
"Is Mr. Yang also a cultivator in the Immortal City? Or is it a free and unrestrained casual cultivator?"
Wei Shi
Seven no comments.
Xia Qian's thoughts came one after another, all kinds of speculations and suspicions. She hesitated for a while and finally plucked up the courage and said, "Mr. Yang, the Han army is under Mount Tai, and the Tianlong Gang has lost its power, and it is no different from the destruction. What we had agreed to before can still be done.
Keep going?"
The host and guest were easily dispersed, and the strength was very different. Wei Shiqi knew what she was worried about and asked back: "Why not?"
"But...we can't help much, so why..."
Wei Shiqi said: "Open the skylight and speak in a bright way. The swordsmanship of your young gang leader is not satisfactory and is not considered the best skill in the world. Fortunately, he is talented and outstripped from his apology, and it is already rare to have today's accomplishments.
”
Xia Qian was a little discouraged and muttered: "Sure enough, my second brother is not as good as everyone's compliments..."
"Your brother is a smart person, and his energy is limited. I don't think he has the intention to be a top expert. As the young leader of the largest gang in Jiangnan, the important thing is to be clear-minded and decisive, know people and use them well. His swordsmanship is just a small path.
It’s about the power of the enemy.”
Xia Qian was stunned for a moment and laughed: "So, you are really your second brother's confidant - I'm afraid he may not be as clear as you!"
"The world is in the world, and you still have to do business in the world. If you encounter a strong enemy, I will kill it with one sword. If you combine, you will benefit from it. Miss Xia, isn't that true?"
Xia Qian breathed a sigh of relief and patted her chest and said, "I thought... well, then what do you want? Deep well cloud mist, Shan ginseng Polygonum multiflorum, magic medicine?"
Wei Shiqi turned around and looked at her quietly. In the dark night, his eyes were like stars, and Xia Qian's ears were hot and his heart was pounding. He only heard him say, "Miss Xia, you are a smart person, Fan
The glory, wealth and power enjoyment in the intercourse are meaningless to me. As long as I practice the more, the more the better. The Tianlong Gang has established a foothold in the three towns in Hebei and grew rapidly, so that I can help me. At this point, what you and I want
There is no conflict.”
Xia Qian stretched out her little finger and smiled and said, "Take the hook?"
Wei Shiqi saw the emotions in her eyes, loneliness, fear, begging, and longing, which were subtle emotions that only he could understand. He clumsyly stretched out his thick little finger and hooked her slender little finger, his hands were fragile
The grounds are connected together and you will break free with a little force.
"Hook, hang it, for a hundred years, don't change!" Xia Qian said silently in her heart three times, suddenly felt a little sad, she sniffed, forced a smile and said, "Then let's make up, don't change?"
Wei Shiqi said: "Okay, I'm sure, it won't change."
Xia Qian pulled her hands and rubbed her eyes, leaned gently on him, and said to herself, "I'm not going to fight with Bai Kou."
, I'm just... a little tired, find a shoulder to lean on..."
From beginning to end, Xia Qing looked at the girl and Yang Hu silently, chewing every word they said. Yang Hu's words deeply touched him. The young leader of the Tianlong Gang has not heard a sharp attack for a long time.
To be honest, he knew that Yang Hu was deliberately telling him, asking him to be at ease and not to be suspicious, so that he would part with one beat.
The casual cultivators who have no sects need to worship from secular power. If they combine, they will benefit from each other and complement each other. This is their new deal.
It was late at night, and the summer water woke everyone up and set off overnight. Taking advantage of the moonlight and starlight, they rushed along the post road and arrived at the canal at dawn. Gu Boyang visited the fishermen on the riverside and hired a fishing boat for a lot of money and promised to send them to Chongming Sand.
As for going north to go to sea, the boss of the ship refused to say anything. He always only fished in the water nets around the canal, and even dared not go to the middle of the river, let alone sailing far away from the sea.
Xia Qing and others boarded the fishing boat and found that what the boss said was not an excuse. The fishing boat was disrepaired and broken, and could not withstand the wind and waves at all. For a moment, the idea of holding the fishing boat to go to sea was extinguished, so they had to wait until Chongming Sha to do it again.
Intend.
After preparing enough oil, salt, rice and vegetables, the boss of the boat shouted his two sons to put away the anchor, unzip the cables, and sailed to the northeast. He was very familiar with the nearby water nets, and soon deviated from the canal channel and turned into a tributary ship along the way.
There is not much smoke, the fields are deserted, the reeds are higher than the top of the head, and the wind rusts.
Four people were squeezed in the cabin, Xia Feng, Xia Qian, Yang Hu, and Bai Ke stood on the deck, with a thousand pounds more. The fishing boat drew very deep, trembling, like an old man in his twilight years. The weather was not beautiful, only light
After a few breezes, the fishing boat slowly walked along the river, not much faster than walking. The boss of the boat put the money in his pocket and was not in a hurry at all. He took the time to spread a few nets, saying that it was a tooth sacrifice for the guests.
The sun was west, and the sky was getting darker little by little. The boss shouted a few times, got anchored at the dock, and made a fire to prepare for cooking.
"Why don't you walk a few more?" Xia Qian couldn't help asking.
"Scared, I can still sail at night with my broken boat? What if I hit you?"
"...How many days will it take to get to Chongmingsha if this happens?"
"This is not accurate. If God helps, it will be a good wind for most of the day. If the wind is incorrect, it will be common to delay ten or half a month."
Xia Qing winked at the girl and told her not to worry. Although walking on the river is slow, it is much safer than land. When Li Mu's light cavalry crossed Qixia Mountain and chased her all the way, she could only stop by the canal and couldn't figure it out.
Chapter completed!
