(End of Volume 2) Chapter 42: First Exploring the Guanyin Academy
It was already dark at this time, and both Qingxia and the soldier were extremely sleepy.
After discussing with Wu Ma, they first sent the soldier back to his home in Jinyang.
When his wife saw her husband like this, she couldn't help crying. After the soldier explained the whole story clearly, the woman was very knowledgeable and never mentioned the broken arm. She only thanked Wuma and Qingxia for saving her life.
.
Since a soldier has lost his arm, he cannot continue to serve in the army.
Wu Ma asked him to rest for the night and come to see her tomorrow, planning to ask Liu Wenjing to arrange for him to find a way to support his family.
Liu Wenjing had previously prepared some coins for the dancing horse, which were originally used to prepare for unexpected events, and they all happened to be left at the soldier's home.
The two of them said goodbye to the soldier's house in the middle of the night and went straight back to the Awakening Tower.
After a day of tossing, the illusion of the dancing horse finally came to an end.
The shadow of the green lantern above Qingxia's head has disappeared, and the opportunity of divine decree has to be missed.
As for the white ball of light above her head, Qingxia tried to inject her spiritual consciousness into it, but she only received a little nourishment and gained nothing else. She thought she would have to go back to the Awakening Tower first to see what Liu Wenjing had to say.
She followed the dancing horse, looking at the carefree and carefree figure in front of her, thinking of the injustice she had suffered in the illusion of Guanyin Temple today, and she felt more and more that this matter could not be let go.
Then he strode forward, walking side by side with the dancing horse, "Wu Langjun is really reckless today."
The dancing horse did not answer.
"The skeleton monk in that temple is so powerful," Qingxia said, "How could you just rush in and rush in? If it were me, there would be a better way."
"oh?"
"It couldn't be simpler - I go in first, or you go in first, and the other person will ambush you at the door of the hall.
Once you enter the main hall, you don't have to fight with them. We just need to find a way to lure the skeleton abbot into the courtyard - as soon as he leaves the hall, we will snatch his cassock.
Mr. Dancer, you are so powerful, going around in circles and tricking a bunch of skeletons is not something you can do easily."
"Where are the soldiers?" Wu Ma said.
"Um?"
"He can't wait."
"Well……"
Qingxia probably understood the meaning of the dancing horse. If you use the strategy of luring the tiger away from the mountain, there is always a possibility that it will not succeed. If you delay the time, you will still have to forcefully rush into the hall in the end, and the soldier will not be able to survive until the end.
"Okay, his life is life, but mine is not,"
Qingxia immediately took a step forward, stopped in front of the dancing horse, raised her eyebrows,
"When I was in trouble, you stood by and watched. You broke into the hall without your life, and forced me to risk my life to protect him. In the end, I almost lost my life trying to save you, and you didn't even have a kind word to say."
"You are trying to save yourself."
Wu Ma took a step to her side and strode over, but she was no longer in front of Huzuo's eyes.
Qingxia was stunned for a moment and quickly chased after her.
"Yes - I am just selfish, I just want to survive, don't you think so?"
Wu Ma suddenly stopped and turned to look at Qingxia, looking directly into her eyes.
"I want to live,"
When Wu Ma spoke, he turned to the moonlight and his face was so dark that Qingxia couldn't see his expression clearly.
"I want it more than anyone else.
So Tian Deping can't kill me, and neither can you - you are very smart today, and you'd better stay so smart forever."
Qingxia froze, her face looked ugly, and she was about to say something.
"I want to live more than anyone else,"
Wu Ma took a step forward and approached her, "So I know how much he wants to live. Today I just saved a life. If this life returns home safely, it can save the whole family. There is nothing more serious than this."
It’s worth it.”
Could this be casual? Qingxia was shocked. This cost her life.
She resisted the dancing horse's gaze and raised her neck, "What about me?"
"I don't care," Wu Ma leaned forward and got closer to her, but his face completely melted into the darkness, "It's best for you to die here."
With that said, he turned around and walked forward.
Qingxia stared at his back blankly for a while, then said angrily: "Do you think he will be grateful to you - you chopped off his arm. If I were him, I would hate you forever."
The horse dancer has gone far away, and I don't know if he heard what she said.
But what she really wanted to say didn't come out.
The dancing horse walked for a while, then suddenly took off his coat, threw it back without looking back, and landed neatly in her hand.
"What do you mean?" she said.
"Wrap your legs."
"Are you afraid I'll catch a cold?"
"Indecent."
Qingxia suddenly smiled and swept away the previous haze. She jumped up to him holding the clothes of the dancing horse. She kicked her legs and jumped, deliberately exposing her long and slender thighs in front of his eyes, "Does it look good or not?"
"
The dancing horse stopped answering and walked forward without squinting.
Qingxia walked around him with a smile, "Speaking of which, I missed the opportunity of divine decree because of helping you. How can I settle the debt?"
Wu Ma had no expression on her face and said she brought it on herself.
Qingxia struggled with him for a long time, but she didn't get a word of thanks from him, let alone any promise of repayment in the future.
But somehow, she felt at ease in her heart. She always felt that after this trip to the phantom of Guanyin Temple, Wu's treatment of her was somewhat different.
She finally wrapped the dancing horse's clothes around her legs and felt waves of warmth.
As she walked, she looked at the dancing horse's face. The moonlight always filled every corner of his face, making it so bright and clear.
The dancing horse looked forward, looking into the distance in the night.
All he was thinking about was the ball of light containing the temple above his head, and he wanted to hurry back to the Awakening Tower to see what use it had.
