Volume 1 Huangquan December, Chapter 74: Waiting for a Long Time
For a moment, Aluan didn't want to run away anymore.
She was tired, and despite her survival instinct, she was not unable to run - but she was really unwilling to run. So she really slowed down, panting, and fell forward one step at a time.
Will she die if she doesn't run? She doesn't know for sure. Whether she can escape or not is another matter. But Aluan just doesn't want to run, because she vaguely feels that if this continues, one day she will feel that it would be better if she died.
Due to her origin and age, everyone who gets along with her always assumes that she needs to be protected. She has been protected by her parents since she was a child. When she grows up, she is still under the wings of her master and friends. She is always the one who protects her from wind and rain.
Others, can't she learn to hold an umbrella by herself?
She should know how to do it, someone has taught her, many people have taught her.
If one of them taught her real skills, she had never called her master - or even acknowledged him. But thinking about it carefully, he should be her third master.
The swordsmith who came into the house.
Daybreak came very quickly. When she came back to her senses, the surroundings were already a vast expanse of white, almost crossing the dawn and facing the sun to watch. Dai Luan wiped the sweat from her head, clenched her sword tightly, and turned slowly
Pass over.
Xie Yan looked at her contemptuously, as if he had no intention of taking a little girl's resistance seriously.
"Child, don't blame me, this is all my master's intention."
"…Satatsuki-kun?"
She couldn't understand why the master of the Death Shadow Pavilion, who was so amiable when they met, suddenly turned against her at this moment? Is what this woman said worth believing? If true, what happened after she left there?
An accident?
...that man? Who is he?
Dai Luan did not dare to act rashly. Every movement and word she made should make the other party unaware of her intentions, or at least think it was harmless. She had to buy more time to remember the sword that the swordsman gave her.
Number of ways.
"I can't believe that, little girl, you are so proud. Even Zuo Renmen will be chasing you."
In fact, Aluan didn't understand. Her little mind quickly calculated: Zuo Renmen? The only one chasing them all the way was the Laughing Wolf. Maybe his real target was herself. After all, there were not a few people in her hometown who wanted to kill her - but that was not the case.
Are you going to catch up here?
In accordance with Lord Yama's order, Lord Xueyue was tracking down the Laughing Wolf, but unfortunately Mu Wan became enemies with him. But could he allow the Laughing Wolf to attack him first? It's not impossible. But I heard it before
Wu Qi said, Xie Yan and the others have been in contact with Zuo Renmen, maybe it was their
private affairs. Can this prove that Lord Satsuki and Lord Ketsuki have no direct interests... Or, the worst result is that they have good contacts, but at least their interference in each other's behavior is actually limited.
?She doesn’t know that the things inside the Six Paths of Impermanence are much more complicated than she thought.
Under the scorching heat of the rising sun, these things made her very irritable. Jie Yan also seemed to not want to talk nonsense with her anymore, and took a few steps forward with a bad look on his face.
"Okay, come here and sleep at my sister's place. If you believe us, you might have deceived Zuo Zhenmen, and we can still find a way to bring you back to life."
"Are you really trying to coax a child?"
The tail of the smoke flew through the air, piercing the air and making a harsh whistling sound. Aluan instinctively raised the sword and held the sword in front of him with one hand. His braid twisted twice on the sword, and suddenly there was a sudden risk.
A burst of black smoke came out, as if throwing away
There was a "squeaking" sound like a hot soldering iron. Her face was a little distorted, and she let go of the sword for a moment, as if it was in pain. At this time, a smell of burnt hair came to Aluan, and she quickly held her breath
, for fear that it might be poisonous inside.
Ah Luan understood that this sword was effective against the Five Poisons. She adjusted her posture, steadied her steps, tilted the sword over, and her center of gravity became more active. Jie Yan bared her teeth slightly, frowned, and looked up and down.
she.
"Hey, the brat has two brushes."
"I don't think it's that simple... Why would the person who wants to kill Aluan chase her here? It stands to reason that since she left the City Prince's Mansion, there is basically no threat."
While chasing Xie Yan, Mu Wan raised such doubts.
"I've always found it strange." Shi Wuqi also bit his lower lip out of confusion, and then said, "Aluan is really just the daughter of the lord of Dailuan City... nothing more? Although Dailuan City is big, it doesn't mean anything to the imperial court.
Where they are connected, they are also a little far apart.”
"What's the meaning?"
"I think the person who ordered Zuo Jinmen to kill her must not be simple. Maybe it is because of her status - but it is not as simple as the princess. What I doubt is that she has fought many six-path impermanence at a young age.
Jiao Dao. I heard you say that Lord Ruyue is her second master, and Lord Jiyue also watched her grow up... and as Shanhai mentioned, Lord Jiyue seems to know her too?"
"...When you say it like that, it seems like - hey, mountains and seas?"
Taoist Master Lin was eager to save people, and had already left them behind with his unparalleled Qinggong. Mu Wan could not keep up with his physical strength and was out of breath. Only Shi Wuqi quickened his pace, and under his control,
Miss Qi's temperament is about the same as Mu Wan's.
But, he quickly stopped.
Mu Wan reluctantly caught up with them, coughing and asking:
"What's wrong? Cough, cough... Why did it suddenly stop..."
The two big men were really strong and could not breathe without breathing. They stopped and stared at the road ahead with solemn expressions. They did not answer her, so Mu Wan beat her legs, raised her head, and looked
Towards the front.
Her breathing stopped at that moment.
"Yu, Miss Yuting..."
Yuting stood in the middle of the road, timidly hiding behind a man. She seemed to be holding something in her hand. She looked at them and hid them back. Shi Wuqi knew without asking that it must be
That ram's horn whistle.
Mu Wan and Shan Hai looked at the man carefully. His face was thin, his complexion was green, and his eyes were sunken. Although he had a good appearance, in broad daylight, he gave people an eerie feeling.
"He's dead," he said. "The whistle in her hand is to control the body."
"Varied……"
"Oh, Mr. Shi, what a coincidence - we meet again."
Before the people appeared, the sound reached their ears first. A gecko crawled across Master Zhang's collar. It fell to the ground and quickly transformed into a human form.
Mu Wan, who was unaware of the situation, thought something had happened to the little girl and shouted angrily: "Shou Gongduo, let go of Miss Yuting!"
"Eh? What did I do to Miss Yuting? Really, everything is put on my head, and I feel aggrieved...I want to correct you. Miss Yuting and I are old acquaintances, and I am still her.
My benefactor."
Shan Hai and Mu Wan looked even more surprised, but when they saw Shi Wuqi saying nothing, they seemed to vaguely know something.
"Wu Qi, you..."
"I know. Miss Yuting wanted to resurrect her first benefactor... so Kari Gondo became her second benefactor. He wanted to teach her the art of resurrecting the soul. Naturally, I guess it was just an experiment... but a
If you are willing to fight, you are willing to suffer."
Yuting pursed her lips tightly and said nothing.
"Come here, Miss Yuting." Shanhai waved to her calmly, speaking as if to his apprentice, with a soft voice, "Don't do stupid things."
Yu Ting was indeed in a state of hesitation. It would be better to say that today's situation was something she had never thought of when she took them in for the night. But she remained motionless, her legs as if nailed to the ground.
The corner of the young master's clothes.
"We all admire Mr. Shi's strength very much. Let's use your corpse to fight with Miss Yuting's. If you win, we will let you go. To be fair, I gave him something else.
Spell. How about it, it makes sense, right? After all, they are all your beloved ones to you."
Shi Wuqi clenched his hands so tightly that his nails almost pierced into his flesh.
"Leave him alone." Mu Wan held up his umbrella, "I'm going to smash his mouth. See if he still says these words that deserve a beating."
"If you really want to fight, you have to get through me first."
It was another person's voice. Shanhai let out a soft "tsk", confirming his previous guess - Shi Wuqi thought the same. That means there is more than one kind of evil spirit here.
And shopkeeper Wu Da.
He leaned out from behind Master Zhang and then took a step forward. It seemed that he had been waiting here for a long time.
“It’s okay if Shopkeeper Wu doesn’t do business with us, why are you here to meddle in other people’s affairs?”
Mu Wan looked sarcastic, but Wu Yin ignored her, and his lifeless face made her even more annoyed. He just stared at Miss Qi without turning his head, and said to Shou Gongduo:
"Don't make it too ugly. It will be very troublesome for me to deal with it. Alas, Xie Yan has been ruthless and shows no mercy."
"That's right, she's always like this."
Shi Wuqi raised his arms and grasped the closed fan handle.
"We didn't have time to listen to your chat." Then he lowered his voice, "Just do what they said, you hold Wu Yin, and I will do what they want and let Aqi and Master Zhang fight. Shanhai, you don't have to worry about it, just go ahead
Go save Aluan."
Lin Shanhai was not someone who would abandon his companions, but he believed in the strength of the two of them. He raised his fly whisk, muttered something in his mouth, and used a trick to hide himself. They did not stop him, and it seemed that they were indeed coming for Miss Qi.
. Presumably they do have a clear division of labor, and this kind of behavior further implements the Death Shadow Pavilion's research on forbidden arts.
"I'm going to meet His Excellency Xie Gong." He said this, but his eyes always fell on Miss Yuting.
Mu Wan listened to what Wuqi said and nodded slightly. But the moment she glanced at his face, she seemed to hear some overtones in what she just said.
Those eyes were full of pity, with a trace of sadness. She knew very well that this was definitely not the expression that Bai Skeleton Master would show when he said such words again. She also knew that the sadness that was not easy to detect at this moment was for him to notice.
people watch.
He just told them, so...
Dealing with Kari Gyoutaku is just a cover to divert the target.
She understood that she had to cover for him.
Accompanied by the crisp sound of fans and a low whistle, the two corpses each took two steps forward.
One has a gloomy face, and the other has a soft expression.
One is withered, the other is fresh.
It's like two still lifes, one dead and one alive.
