Shang Jun walked slowly in the corridor of the inn, cold and dark. The outside of the inn was also silent, the wind gradually subsided, and even the sound of falling snow could be heard clearly. The earth under the moonlight was vast and dazzlingly white. This should be the last snow before the arrival of early spring, right? This year's weather is exceptionally unusual. It's almost spring, but instead, it's getting colder.
It's already the third watch, but he has no sleepiness. The problem of the hungry people can be solved, and the problem of the garrison can also be mediated, but what about the third child? How does he communicate with San'er, how does he make him understand his thoughts? He can't bear to hurt San'er. He understands what San'er has done for him over the years, but he can't agree with San'er's actions. The saddest thing is that he can no longer convince him.
What is he going to do
He was only wearing a thin plain white shirt, but Shang Jun was not in a hurry to go back to his room, but leaned on the wooden ladder in the corridor, staring blankly at the white snow outside the inn, his mind was blank.
I didn't know how long I had been standing when I suddenly heard a series of very light footsteps from the small courtyard on the right. Shang Jun squinted his eyes, only to see a dazzling red shadow flashing past, his body was very fast, and his enchanting and light body looked like a woman. Unfortunately, Shang Jun didn't have time to see the appearance clearly in the future. Into the innermost private room.
That's Xiuzhi's room.
Shang Jun was shocked and his face changed slightly, but after running a few steps, Shang Jun stopped again. Who was that woman just now? Naturally, that skill will not be the county master. Is the woman in red a person Xiu Zhi knows? Wouldn't it be good for him to break through like this
Looking at Xiuzhi's room again, it was still dark inside, with no lights and no sound. If you are a member, why don't you light the lights? Is it...
Impossible, Xiu Zhi is not that kind of person!
Even though his heart was still full of doubts, Shang Jun rushed to the room where Xiuzhi was located, stood at the door, and listened with bated breath. There was no movement inside. As soon as he gritted his teeth, Shang Jun pushed open the door of Xiuzhi's room.
The door had just opened, and before he could see what was inside, a fiery red ribbon charged towards his neck with all its strength.
Shang Jun was secretly startled, took a step back, avoided the attack of the ribbon, stretched out his hand to grab it, only to find that the red and fiery ribbon was extremely thin and light, but it was flexible and cold, and it was almost impossible to grasp it. It seems to have spirituality, slipping away from the fingers. Shang Jun frowned, his hand also caressed the Lingxiao soft sword around his waist. If he can control such a thin and weird ribbon so delicately, this person's martial arts skills must be strange.
Passing the ribbon sideways, Shang Jun swung out a soft sword, trying to cut the ribbon, but who knew that the ribbon actually intersected with the soft sword, creating a faint spark. The ribbon could not bear the strength of Shang Jun and fell softly, but it was not damaged in the slightest.
Shang Jun was stunned, what kind of weapon is this, and Ling Xiao is also beheading it constantly
The ribbon slipped, and Shang Jun looked at the end of it eagerly, wanting to see who possessed such a weapon.
The light in the room was dim, Shang Jun squinted his eyes with difficulty, and finally saw the person not far away, it was a very young and charming face, full of youthful breath. In the darkness, the woman's pair of spiritual eyes shone brightly, with a proud and candid face written all over her slightly proud face, a flaming red outfit, and her slightly darker wheat-colored skin, looking healthy and wild.
The woman also stared blankly at Shang Jun, her eyes lingering on his face, without concealing her surprise.
The two looked at each other for a while, and Shang Jun suddenly remembered that Xiuzhi's situation was unclear, and he didn't know whether the person in front of him was an enemy or a friend. Pointing to the woman's right hand holding the ribbon.
The Shang Jun was so fast that the woman was shocked and waved the ribbon again. It's a pity that Shang Jun was already close at hand. Seeing that his right arm was about to be wrapped around the soft sword, he only heard a low voice of sword energy from far to near. bounced off.
Is there anyone else in this house? He didn't feel it at all just now. Has his martial arts really regressed to this level
Because of the impact just now, Ling Xiao's soft sword made a long buzzing sound, and the tiger's mouth was aching faintly. Shang Jun looked up and saw a blood-red epee in front of his eyes, flashing with a cold light of thirst for blood.
This is-
In the dark night, the tall black-clothed man held a long sword in one hand and Xiuzhi's throat in the other.
These eyes, he, recognized.
"It's you again!" Shang Jun whispered.
The man who chased and killed Xiuzhi a year ago, why is he again? Shang Jun's heart suddenly raised his throat, even when he was full of skill, he was not necessarily his opponent, let alone now.
When he was in a hurry, Shang Jun thought of the woman in red who was still standing beside him. Although the woman's red silk was a sharp weapon, it was a pity that her skill was still weak, and the man in black just saved her with his sword, so the two must be together. To save it, Shang Jun decided to take a gamble!
Shang Jun turned around abruptly, took a quick step back, and used all his strength to force the woman in red. Mo Can held Xiuzhi in his hands, but failed to respond, Wei Na had already fallen into the hands of Shang Jun.
Holding Wei Na's throat, Shang Jun and Mo Can face each other coldly.
Mo Can's originally indifferent eyes now flashed a deep cold light. Even in the dark, the cold and murderous murderous aura was still shocking, and the low male voice struck like frost: "Let her go."
Shang Jun had a dull pain in his chest, so strong internal strength. Seeing that Mo Can's fingertips were almost embedded in Xiuzhi's neck, Xiuzhi's face could not be seen in the dark room, but the painful whisper from his throat showed Xiuzhi's crisis at this time.
He is not a man's opponent at all, Shang Jun gritted his teeth lightly, and replied coldly: "You let him go first!" The men also exerted their strength, and the woman groaned in pain. Shang Jun felt the pulse between the woman's neck beating violently, the woman's life was in his palm, and when he heard the man's breathing in the dark gradually becoming a little disordered, Shang Jun knew that he had the right bargaining chip. At this time, the woman's face also flushed red, but Shang Jun didn't let go of her, but his hand was a little looser.
Feeling a little strength in Shang Jun's hand, Wei Na's hand holding the powder was also a meal. There are hundreds of medicines on her body that can make life worse than death. Whoever captures her is asking for hardship. However, this man in white is somewhat interesting, and she is a little reluctant to let him die. And she can also take the opportunity to test how much Mo Can cares about her. Putting the medicine powder back into her sleeves, Wei Na cooperated and let Shang Jun hold her, even if her neck was no longer very painful, she continued to show extreme pain.
Shang Jun is a little inexplicable. He has obviously given up his strength. Why is the woman still looking like she is better off dead? There is doubt in his heart, but he can only focus on Mo Can now, and has no time to care about other things.
The two held hostages each, and looked at them coldly, neither of them willing to compromise. Shang Jun is even more afraid to compromise, because his martial arts have long been inferior to before.
The fight in the room disturbed Xi Mu and Ye Yan in the next room. The two rushed into the door and saw Qin Xiuzhi being held hostage by a man in black. The two drew out their long swords and attacked the man in black.
Shang Jun held Wei Na and confronted him. Mo Can was in a very bad mood. Now there are two more people who are not afraid of death. He is even more impatient, "If you want him to die, you can get closer."
Shang Jun is the closest to him. As soon as the black-clothed man finished speaking, Xiu Zhi suddenly let out an extremely painful groan. Shang Jun turned pale with fright, and yelled at the two who hurried up to meet him, "Don't come here."
Ximu and Yeyan's feet froze. They also heard Qin Xiuzhi's painful voice. They were anxious and angry, but they had to stop and stare at the man in black. If eyes could kill people, Mo Can would have been riddled with holes, but unfortunately Mo Can didn't take this kind of stare seriously at all.
The man's finger strength is so strong, Xiuzhi's life is on the verge of death, thinking of Xiuzhi's blushing face and difficulty breathing in the dark, Shang Jun's heart is actually a little flustered. After secretly adjusting his breath, Shang Jun calmly asked, "Who are you?"
This man is called Shang Jun. He was very impressed with him. A year ago, he was confused by him. Today, just listening to his remarks and knowing that his internal strength is depleted, he can still fight against him so strongly. In the darkness, the corners of Mo Can's always indifferent mouth lifted lightly, and his voice was still cold and arrogant: "Mo Can."
Don't leave!
The number one killer in the arena, Mo Can.
Shang Jun's heart is cold, no wonder his martial arts is unfathomable, no wonder his sword is scarlet with thirst, no wonder he dares to say that he never kills people once.
He kills without even blinking an eye. Shang Jun's already panicked heart was even more uneasy at this time. Looking at those cold eyes, Shang Jun said angrily: "Mo Can, you are not trustworthy." He promised that if he lost, he would not kill Xiuzhi again, but he actually went back on his word.
Mo Can's cold face seemed to be frosted, and he replied extremely impatiently: "I'm not here to kill him this time. If I want him to die, no one can stop me. You are the best. So let that woman go immediately, or I'll change my mind." Originally, he planned to leave after asking about one thing, but if he hadn't barged in and made trouble, he would have already left.
What is he doing here without Xiuzhi's life? No matter what his purpose is, Shang Jun admits that if he wants to Xiu's death, he really can't stop it. Looking at the woman in red who was being held in his arms by him, it would be meaningless to hold on to it any longer. Shang Jun said loudly, "Okay, let's release them at the same time."
Mo Can remained silent, but Shang Jun still said to me aloud, "One, two, three!"
When he finished speaking three, Shang Jun let go of the hand that was holding the red-clothed woman's throat, and grabbed her belt behind the woman with the other hand, staring at Mo Can.
After a while, Shang Jun heard Xiuzhi gasping loudly, his heart finally let go, and Mo Can let go.
Qin Xiuzhi stumbled out of the room, and Shang Jun immediately let go of the hand that grabbed the woman in red and went up to meet him.
Wei Na pouted in disappointment, so boring. Mo Can did not worry about her, and did not ask her if she was injured.
"Xiuzhi, how are you?" Holding Xiuzhi's hand, Shang Jun's voice trembled a little, his hand was frighteningly cold. Xiu Zhi only felt the pain in his throat and chest as if the flames had burned through, and he was speechless for a while, so he could only smile and shake his head at Shang Jun. Hope it puts him at ease.
At this time, Qin Xiuzhi's face was flushed red, and the five red and white finger prints on his neck were particularly dazzling, but he still smiled gently at him as usual, trying to appease his frightened heart, but he didn't know Xiuzhi at this time. The smile will only make his heart hurt more.
Shang Jun poured a glass of water to Xiu Zhishunqi. Mo Can's cold voice sounded again: "I only talk to him alone."
Shang Jun almost gritted his teeth and replied, "Impossible." Xiuzhi's face has not recovered yet, and the bruises are still visible in his eyes. Unless he is crazy, it is impossible for Xiuzhi to stay alone with this dangerous person. Together.
Shang Jun returned decisively, and Mo Can refused to compromise at all. The two glared at each other again, and the atmosphere finally eased a little, and became tense again. The woman in red who had been standing beside her rolled her eyes. Are these two going to stare at each other all night, or should they fight first? Pointing at Ximu and Yeyan, the woman said, "Okay, you can stay, but they can't."
His martial arts are not enough to protect Xiu Zhi now, and Shang Jun is still thinking. Xiuzhi drank the water, and his anger finally calmed down. He couldn't bear the distress of Lord Shang, and said with difficulty in a hoarse voice: "Ximu, Yeyan, guard outside the door, don't let anyone approach."
"Yes." Xi Mu and Ye Yan looked at each other, and according to the current situation, they could only quit first.
There were only four people left in the room. Wei Na took out a fire stick from her waist and lit a candle. The room suddenly became brighter. She crossed her waist and said to Mo Can with a smile: "Okay, there are no outsiders anymore. Say what, or it will be dawn."
Mo Can stared at Wei Na's smiling face and said nothing. Wei Na was inexplicable. She was helping him, so she knew how to stare at people. Pouting, Wei Na also widened her eyes and stared back, and replied unconvinced: "Why are you staring at me? They are a couple, and he won't leave even if you have to drive him away!"
Shang Jun originally watched the two of them quarrel leisurely, but who would have known that a woman would suddenly say such a thing, fearing that her identity as a woman would be exposed, she panicked, and immediately said angrily: "Absurd."
His fierce reaction was exchanged for the three people's side glances, and Qin Xiuzhi's heart sank to the bottom. Shang Jun really despised such feelings, swallowing the bitterness in his heart, Qin Xiuzhi also explained cooperatively: "You misunderstood this girl, we are just good friends."
"Good friend?" Wei Na sneered and snorted, "Why didn't you have a mirror just now for you to see each other's expressions." If you like it, you like it, I don't know what they are awkward about.
Both Shang Jun and Qin Xiuzhi were a little embarrassed, so they started separately. Shang Jun coughed lightly and said deliberately in a deep voice: "Don't talk nonsense any more. We are both men, so it might be a couple."
"Men?" Wei Na's eyes wandered around Shang Jun, she wasn't sure whether he was a man or not. But when he trapped her in his arms just now, she seemed to feel the softness that did not belong to a man. Shang Jun was pounding nervously when Wei Na saw him, but he didn't dare to show the slightest on his face. Just when Shang Jun was worried about what Wei Na would say, she changed the topic and said with a natural look: "Men can also be a couple."
"Ah?" Shang Jun was dumbfounded.
Shaking his head gently, looking like a child who cannot be taught, Wei Na held her hands behind her back and preached: "Master said that love in the world, as long as it is true to each other, can transcend everything, transcend age, transcend gender, and even transcend time and space, And ah-"
"Wei-Na!" The blue veins on Mo Cun's forehead almost burst out. If he didn't speak, she thought he was dead, right? So much nonsense.
Wei Na stuck out her tongue lightly, someone seemed to be going crazy, she felt that she had retreated to the chair next to her and sat down obediently, and repeatedly replied: "Okay, I'll shut up, you guys continue."
Shang Jun shook his head amusingly, this woman is quirky and outspoken, and she is really cute.
Really relative, can really surpass everything? Xiu Zhi looked at Shang Jun's profile thoughtfully, and finally he could only let out a low sigh.
A cock crowing cut through the sky, although it was still dark outside, it also indicated that the dawn was coming, Mo Can let out a low curse, what were you doing this night.
Walking in front of Qin Xiuzhi, Mo Can took out something from his arms, hung it in front of Qin Xiuzhi, and asked coldly, "I just ask you, was this originally yours?"
Qin Xiuzhi took a closer look and saw that it was a fan-shaped piece of white jade that was exquisite and translucent. Under the unknown candlelight, the jade pendant still emits a faint jade soft light. The front of Yu Linglong is carved with orchid grass, which is not blooming. The few strokes of carving, but the tranquility and elegance of orchid are vividly displayed on the jade.
It was indeed the piece of jade that he gave to Murong Shuqing, Qin Xiuzhi replied frankly: "This thing is not mine, I just keep it for me."
Mo Can's eyes were brighter and he seemed a little excited. He stared at Qin Xiuzhi and said anxiously, "Where does this thing come from?"
Glancing at Mo Can's eager look, Qin Xiuzhi covered his brows and thought for a while, then replied, "I have already given this Yu Linglong and its origin to the person who owns Shang Tie, if you really are its owner, you should have already know."
Mo Can replied coldly, "Murong Shuqing only handed over Yu Linglong to me, without explaining the origin."
Did he really get it from Shu Qing? After thinking about it, Qin Xiuzhi replied, "Okay, if it's what you said, then the shovel should also be in your hands. If you can get it, I'll tell you."
Mo Can didn't think much about it, put his hand into his arms, and quickly took out another piece of jade. Qin Xiuzhi took it over and identified it carefully. One side of this jade face was carved with a blooming cold plum. It was a simple carving, but the spirituality and arrogance of the plum blossom had been carved vividly. It can be seen that the person who carved it must have a heart for plum.
It looks like it should be a couple, but he has only seen it once, so he is not sure. After thinking about it, Qin Xiuzhi picked up two pieces of exquisite jade, lifted the Yinhong brocade thread tied to the top of the upper tie, and let it hang in the air.
Suddenly—the surrounding light seemed to gather in the white jade in an instant, slowly revealing a slight purple fluorescence from the inside out. The two pieces of jade jade gradually emitted a soft purple light, and the purple light became more and more intense. When the purple light surrounded them, the jade pendant began to tremble slightly. Their vibrations made a low and shallow sound like a bell, rustling, high and low, like the whispers of lovers, like cheerful chanting.
"This—" Shang Jun looked at the beautiful scene in surprise, and didn't know what to say for a while.
"Oh my God!" Wei Na also gathered around the table, staring at the two matching jade pendants, and said oddly, "It's amazing!" She also has many rare treasures at home, but none of them are as interesting.
Qin Xiuzhi separated them a little, and the purple light and the low voice were obviously weakened. When they got closer, a brilliant purple light and a crescendo low voice were emitted again. It was the same as what he and Shu Qing saw that day. Slowly putting Yu Linglong down, Xiu Zhi smiled and said, "It really is a couple."
After the jade pendant was put down, in just a moment, the brilliance was fully restrained. No matter how you looked at it, it was just two pieces of high-quality jade ornaments.
The three of them were still shocked by the wonder just now, and they were stunned for a while before they came back to their senses. Mo Can looked at the two pieces of jade and had an unspeakable feeling in his heart, is this the so-called pair? Only when we are together can we be brilliant? That being the case, why are they separated for more than 20 years
Covering the slightly confused emotions in his heart, Mo Can turned to Qin Xiuzhi and said, "You can talk now."
Xiuzhi nodded and said, "Actually..."
Qin Xiuzhi just said two words, a sharp long arrow pierced the window paper and hit his throat. The long arrow was powerful and threatening, Shang Jun felt a murderous aura coming, and only had time to pull Xiuzhi's shirt and bring it to the side, but he didn't have time to save Wei Na who was standing behind Xiuzhi. Fortunately, Mo Can was agile, the Chi Lian in his hand hit the long arrow, the arrow peak rubbed past the epee, deflected in the direction, and finally stuck straight on the edge of the bed, the arrow body submerging halfway. It can be seen that this force is fierce.
The feathers on the tail of the arrow are still shaking constantly. The four of them looked at each other, and before they could figure out what was going on, Mo Can and Shang Jun suddenly changed their faces. Shang Jun shouted: "Be careful!"
Almost at the same time as Shang Jun's shout, dozens of long arrows with feathers and feathers once again slammed into the window. After Shang Jun pulled Qin Xiuzhi to hide in the closet beside the bed, he only heard the sound of a long arrow being driven into the wooden closet. Shang Jun supported the cabinet with his hands, and the strength of each arrow embedded in the wood penetrated through the wooden cabinet. Shang Jun was secretly shocked, what a strong arm!
