The knife was placed on Mu Wan's shoulder, still far away from his pulse.
The crossbow was pointed directly at Shi Wuqi's head, and he did not move. He was the first to notice the abnormality, but did not make it public. He was curious about what the two people who had been hiding in the grass beach wanted to do when they approached them. Ye Yuejun could not have noticed it.
, but she didn't express anything. Mu Wan, on the other hand, was too relaxed when she was with Ye Yuejun, so she didn't feel anything was right until this point.
"If Ye Yue-kun asks your partner to greet you in a normal way, Shi will be grateful."
"Sorry." Mr. Ye Yue smiled, "Stop making trouble, they are not evil people."
The barrier knife on Mu Wan's shoulder was neatly sheathed, and the crossbow behind Wu Qi paused for a while. The crossbow had its string tightened and might let go at any time. The two people put away their weapons and walked to
Beside Ye Yuejun, two handfuls of branches were dropped.
"There aren't many trees here, and it's even harder to find ones that can be burned." The man said, "Ah, you guys are so offended."
"Qinglan? Huailan?" Dai Luan couldn't believe that she would see them here, "Why are you here?"
Tang Huailan sat directly next to Mu Wan, which made Mu Wan very interested. Tang Qinglan sat next to her, getting closer to Miss Qi. Shi Wuqi took Ah Qi over there, seeing that Shan Hai and Ah Luan knew each other.
No words were spoken for their sake.
"I introduced these two disciples of the Tang Sect to you." Shan Hai smoothed things over, "I met them at Zanglan Hai."
"Every time I see the Tang family, nothing good happens." Wu Qi smiled sarcastically, "I heard that the treasures in your library were also stolen? By my own family."
Tang Qinglan patted the dust on his hands and said, "Originally, he could have belonged to his own family, but he is no longer."
In order to prevent these people from arguing without a few words, Ye Yuejun took over the conversation.
"I took the initiative to find these two friends. They have no blood relationship with the Tang family, and they have nothing to do with the main disciples. They are directly under the command of one of the hall masters, Tang Huansheng. He has sent them to fight with Tang He twice.
Contact, but in the end got a self-defeating result..."
Ye Yuejun's words didn't seem to be particularly polite. But from the faces of Qinglan and Huailan, there was no enthusiasm to protect the reputation of the sect. Maybe they really didn't care, and Ye Yuejun knew that they didn't care, so he dared to say so.
"Why did the Tang family send them here again and again?" Shan Hai asked, "And, are you sure that that person will visit Cuipingtan?"
"This is inevitable. Lord Xueyue knows that the incense burner has spread here, so he will definitely let him come."
"We originally thought that if we couldn't find it, we would go back to Xueyan Valley and ask Yun Waijing." Dai Luan was a little happy, "I didn't expect that it would take no effort at all... Ah, I'm afraid there will be another fight. I'm still
I want to go back and see Xiaoliang, it would be great if he could come."
"Little sister, you are very thoughtful," Qinglan joked, "It's so enviable to be so carefree."
"I also have to worry about a lot of things, okay? Hey, you haven't said it yet, why are you doing this mission again? Do you still want to kill Tang He?"
Dai Luan spoke bluntly, and Mu Wan turned around and looked at them again. Shan Hai said that they had a reputation at Zuo Renmen. Now under the firelight, you can clearly see their collars, which are still stacked in the same way.
Everyone is young, but there is a sense of longevity
Zongheng Jianghu's unique sophistication. The texture of his arm muscles, the style of his clothes, and the weapons on his body all convey a unique sinister look. No matter how Zongtang Qinglan smiles with joy on his face, no matter how calm Huailan's heart is, he can't hide those stained eyes.
Bloody hands.
She doesn't like this kind of family sect very much. It's full of overt and covert fights inside and outside, and it's very complicated. She can't relax even at home, and she has to be very careful compared to outside, which is too tiring. But she also remembers what Dai Luan said
They are orphans, and it is not easy to find a place to stay.
The expressionless Huailan knew that Mu Wan had been looking at her. She took out half a cake from her arms and asked seriously:
"Do you want to eat?"
"No, you misunderstood...forget it, I'm not hungry."
Okay, I'm actually a little hungry since I haven't eaten. But I've said it out loud and it's impossible to take it back.
"If the two of us join forces, we can fight him evenly. But this time our order is not like that." Tang Qinglan wiped the knife and said, "What we have to do is to retrieve the Night Screaming Stone. Killing him can be
It is a means, but not the result. Although it is not safe to reveal the purpose of the mission, since the superiors did not say to keep it secret, I will tell you."
"Then one day, we will be able to fight each other with swords." Shi Wuqi folded his hands on his face with a smile, and said boredly, "I thought that we have a common enemy, and maybe we can temporarily become friends.
Let’s form an alliance.”
"Oh, don't say that. When the time comes, we still hope you can help us, hahaha..."
Dealing with people is probably what Tang Qinglan is good at and likes. If it were not for the restriction of his identity, he might be able to have both sides of the world and prosper. In comparison, Tang Huailan is taciturn and more like a natural killer.
.
The killer is eating pie.
Shan Hai's impression of her was that of being unsmiling, and in fact she had always carried out this impression. He and Mu Wan looked at her at the same time, and could read the caution in her every move. Her eyes that were not completely lowered would stand up at any time.
Sitting, always alert to the people behind her. But if she puts aside these things and talks to people politely, she is actually very lovable, but she doesn't do that.
"Each one depends on his own ability." Shi Wuqi finally said.
Ye Yuejun wanted to patrol the entire Cuipingtan at night. She and the wild geese circled twice in the sky and soon disappeared. She said she would be back before dawn and hoped that the two groups of people would get along well and not cause any trouble. But she just
Let's go, the fake smiles on everyone's faces disappeared in an instant, and no one paid any attention to anyone. Even during the break, an invisible boundary was drawn with the campfire as the center.
In the middle of the day, Tang Qinglan asked in a low voice: "Do you want to rest?"
"You're not sleepy yet." Huailan said, "You go to bed and I'll keep watch."
"I can't sleep if you don't sleep."
"Forgot the rules?"
"Okay, okay, I'll sleep, I'll sleep."
Tang Qinglan removed the barrier knife, handed it to her hand, walked towards the stone near the bonfire, leaned against it and closed her eyes.
Opposite the bonfire, Shi Wuqi stood guard for a while, preparing to wake up Shanhai. Mu Wan suddenly woke up and said no, just let her come. So Wuqi told her that the firewood was running out and she had to add more. She nodded,
He said he would look for it later.
When Tang Huailan heard that her partner's breathing had become calmer, she stood up, stretched her muscles, and took a few steps outside. Her footsteps were not audible even on the grass.
Before she walked too far, she raised her hand holding the sword and took a deep breath, as if embracing the night. She couldn't be too far away. The rules of the sect required the distance between resting companions. During resting, there were more than three people.
More than half of the people must be vigilant, and the two-person team has a strict rotation system. There was some sound of water ahead. She looked back and saw that the distance seemed to be over. After hesitating, she walked forward. Under the moonlight, she looked
Mu Wan squatted in front of a ditch and fetched water with a ladle.
"What are you doing?"
Mu Wan didn't hear her voice at all, and she was so frightened that she almost fell into the water. When she turned around, she was a little unhappy:
"Of course I'm fetching water, can't you understand?"
"Are you thirsty?"
"What else? Am I hungry?"
That being said, she was actually quite hungry. But the others were not hungry for some reason, and she didn't want to wake them up by digging through their luggage in the middle of the night, so she had to stay away and drink more water. If she just said that she was woken up by hunger
Yes, it's so embarrassing.
Maybe people tend to have a bad attitude when they are hungry. Thinking of the piece of cake before, Mu Wan softened his attitude and continued:
"We'll look for firewood later."
"There is nothing in this area. We have brought all the dead branches that can be used. We have enough firewood until midnight, but it is the coldest before sunrise."
Mu Wan stood up and looked at her. Under the moonlight, Huailan's calm and serious eyes were quite beautiful. In the past, she would have been happy to make friends. But on the one hand, she was not familiar with Huailan's background.
Prejudice, on the other hand, after everything she has experienced in the past, it is difficult for her to trust anyone anymore.
So she just responded silently: "Yeah."
Both of them were stuck here, and neither of them had the intention to go back first. The night wind blew over, blowing their hair and clothes. Mu Wan looked at Tang Huailan's cold face, and the moonlight spilled into her eyes, falling on them.
A bottomless place.
"That Shi Wuqi is not someone who will give up." Mu Wan still reminded her, "We will also help him. I don't know how to use that night crying stone, thinking that if I can get it, we may be able to communicate.
, I’ll return it to you when I’m done with it.”
"Crying stones at night is not important." Tang Huailan said, "The order was not given by the person who gave it the previous two times."
"...I heard that your Tang family has a clear internal work arrangement and various classes. Aren't you taking orders from a certain hall master? Have you been transferred this time?"
"According to the original hall master's opinion, he will not send us on this mission again. But...the head of the Tang Sect is very suspicious and is afraid that he will recruit too many disciples who are not related to the Tang family and collude with the Zuoji Sect in order to create another
Establishing a family. We were the first ones he adopted.
I was brought up, so I couldn’t find an excuse to leave. The rest of the people were slowly replaced by the superiors. Now the two of us have also been seconded, and we were sent on missions on the grounds that we were familiar with this person’s style of conduct. But speaking of it...
I believe he is the most loyal."
"... You above are trying to take some time out of this Hall Master. If he really wants the Tang family to be well-off, it's probably because his influence is hindering others and they don't want him to be well-off. Speaking of which, eating your bowl of rice is really a big deal.
On the waistband. Every mission carries the risk of losing one's life. Life and death are in and out, and you don't know when it will end."
"No. I originally wanted to treat this mission as the last one..."
"Do you want to leave?" Mu Wan frowned, "It seems difficult to get out of that kind of place, especially the master's house."
"Yes. I thought of the worst-case scenario, which was to outlast my life and consume the old man to death."
"It's also a way."
After that, Tang Huailan shut her mouth tightly, as if she didn't intend to say anything more. Maybe for her, she had said enough tonight.
