next morning.
Yan Gongluo walked back and forth anxiously in the room, rubbing his palms or scratching his scalp from time to time. Suddenly walked a few steps, sat heavily on the chair, restrained himself and said hastily: "Grandpa, the master and the others have been gone for a whole day and night without any news, we really can't wait any longer, if something happens to the master, then What is the point of our existence?"
Yan Tianwei glanced at him calmly, and said a word: "Wait."
"Wait... But I really can't wait any longer..."
"Wait!" Yan Tianwei snorted heavily, holding back Yan Gongluo's unfinished words. He said calmly: "With the master's ability to travel thousands of miles in an instant, nothing in this world can trap him. Taking ten thousand steps back, even if the master really fell into the hands of the Northern Emperor Sect through negligence, the Northern Emperor Sect must have already I can't wait to release the news. There was a loud noise from the direction of the Northern Emperor Sect yesterday, and that was clearly the extremely powerful force released by the Calamity Bow. The master has not returned for a long time, so he must have his plans. We must not act rashly. On the contrary, it will ruin the master's affairs."
"But, what if, what if..." Yan Tianwei's words did not reassure Yan Gongluo, he stood up, frowned and shouted.
Old Yan Tianwei frowned, and said in a low voice: "Two days, another two days. If the master still hasn't come back, then we will spare no effort to forcibly break into the Northern Emperor Sect... Don't worry, even if you say it's not If the possible events come true, the master will be fine. Hmph, they must want the calamity bow in the master's hand, and they will never hurt the master's life."
Yan Gongluo sat down heavily, until now, he could only listen to what his grandfather said, and could only silently pray in his heart that all "what ifs" would not happen. Different from Yan Gongluo, Yan Tianwei has always maintained a calm and calm, not worried about anything. However, his calm did not last long.
Another day passed, Ye Wuchen and Leng Ya still did not go back, nor did they hear any news. Yan Tianwei's heart finally became turbulent.
After night, another day came. Today is already the third day since Ye Wuchen and Leng Ya went to the Northern Emperor Sect. Yan Tianwei stayed up all night. He stood on the high roof early in the morning, looking at the direction of the Northern Emperor Sect in the distance. The gray robe on his body was already wet with dew. The deeply frowned brows showed the solemnity in his heart.
"Grandpa?" Yan Gongluo appeared behind him and called softly.
"Wait... If the master still hasn't come back after dark... you should go and prepare." Yan Tianwei said in a deep voice.
"Yes." Yan Gongluo stepped back worriedly.
"Hey! Hey! Wood, lazy wood, lazy pig! It's time to wake up." Ping'er poked Leng Ya's nose with a straw, finally awakening him who was in sedation. In the past two nights, Ping'er slept on his not-so-shabby little bed as usual, while Leng Ya sat in the corner of the cabin, facing the wall in meditation, like an old monk meditating. , Leng Ya opened his eyes, judged the current time according to the light, and was about to stand up.
"Don't move, change the medicine." Ping'er slapped him down, then picked up the medicine bottle that had been prepared, and helped him untie the belt on his feet. The blood on the belt had long since dried, and it hadn't been stained for the past few days. After untiing it, Ping'er frowned and looked at his injury, nodded in satisfaction and said, "The hag's medicine is really effective, and with my hard work... Well, your recovery ability isn't too bad, it's almost recovered. I think you can do without changing the medicine."
"Someone is coming." Leng Ya said in a low voice, her eyes froze.
Ping'er got up quickly, stood at the wooden door, and listened to the movement outside the door.
"Miss Ping'er, the sun is drying your ass, I wonder if you have woken up yet." Xiao Ba's lazy voice sounded outside, "Damn Xiao Ba, you deserve a beating, why are you screaming so early in the morning!" Ping'er opened the door quickly and came out, looking at Xiao Ba and Xiao Jiu outside the door with a bad face. The menacing posture made the two of them take a step back at the same time.
"Hey...it's nothing important, how dare we bother you, Miss Ping'er. It's Madam who asked us to tell you that you have completed three years of confinement and you can go out tomorrow. Madam also said that after you go out, you can go to her directly Good." Xiao Jiu said, with a look of longing, as if she was very reluctant.
"Ah? Go out?" Ping'er was caught off guard and was stunned.
"Yeah, you heard me right. Huh? It's strange, what kind of expression do you have? Could it be that you've been here for a long time and have feelings for this place, so you're reluctant to leave, or... hehe, are you reluctant to leave your little eighth brother?" "Xiao Ba said with a smile.
"Cut!" Ping'er glanced at her mouth disdainfully, then waved her hand impatiently: "Okay, okay, I already know, you guys get out of here quickly, this girl needs to clean up properly."
"What else do you have to clean up." Xiao Jiu rubbed his nose and muttered, and then complained in a low voice: "Oh, once Ping'er is gone, we two brothers will continue to guard an empty space, I don't know Which uncle or lady will I serve next time?"
When they walked away, Ping'er's face was dark and uncertain. She returned to the house, closed the wooden door with a "bang", and hurried to Leng Ya: "Did you hear that, they said that I can go out tomorrow, what should I do?" ?”
Leng Ya looked up and looked at him puzzled.
"You are stupid!" Ping'er slammed him hard: "If I leave, how can you stay here? Even if you can not be found, you will starve to death... And there are other things, the most important thing What's more, if I can't be with you, how can Ye Wuchen take me out when he comes... No, no, no, no... It's over, it's over, it's over, what should I do, what should I do... "
Ping'er turned around anxiously, kept pulling her hair, then suddenly swayed in front of Leng Ya, and said seriously: "You were really brought by Ye Wuchen? Will he really come to take us out again? ?”
"Yes..." Leng Ya replied with certainty.
"Wuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu of your ability, anyone will think you're dead after staying alone in Beidizong for three days, and he must think you're dead as well. It's impossible to come again, woo woo... It must be like this, I really want to go out and have a look, yes, I finally got a chance, and there is no way to go out." Ping Er whispered full of grievances.
"I'll take you out." Leng Ya stood up, looked away, and looked outside the door.
"You?" Ping'er shook her head vigorously: "Do you think that people can come and go when they want here? You can't get out, even if you can avoid being discovered, no one will stop you, and you won't get out of here." It is possible to walk out of the Flame Soul Sand. That is a place that only those who can use the Flame Soul Art can pass. You... you stay here in the future, and they will find out and arrest you in a few days. You can't even take care of yourself. How could you take me out?"
Leng Ya: "..." Without saying a word, his heart slowly clenched, and his hands were quietly clenched. He was never one to throw in the towel. At this moment, a crazy decision was uncontrollably brewing in his heart... The reason for this decision, he vaguely realized, was the screen he was facing.
He wanted to take her out, wanted to take her out with great desire, because she said that she had to take her away before she could tell him where Yan Zhimeng was. At the same time, that's what she wanted... Or, that's what he wanted too. He found that after just getting along with her, he was greedy for the feeling of being with her like an addiction.
Once a person who has never been emotional, or even knows what it is, once his heart is opened by someone, it will explode with an unstoppable madness and enthusiasm.
"I'll take you out." Leng Ya repeated what she said, more firmly than before, and even with an irrefutable firmness.
Ping'er looked up at him in surprise, there seemed to be a hot fire burning in his eyes. It was a harbinger of madness about to run amok.
"What do you want to do?" Ping'er's heart beat "thumping".
"I can... take you out, I can't walk through the flame soul sand, you can!" Leng Ya said seriously.
Ping'er's eyes widened, and she immediately understood what he wanted to do, and shook her head vigorously: "That's impossible. Although the Northern Emperor Sect has basically never encountered foreign enemies, it has never relaxed its guard. The emperor just invaded, and the Northern Emperor Sect must be heavily guarded. How could we escape... By the way, since you can come here without being discovered, maybe your concealment skills are really good, and you can go out alone ... Oh, no, no, even if you don't get discovered, you still can't pass to the Flaming Soul Sand... You seem to be a dead end."
Leng Ya didn't speak any more, she looked directly at Ping'er, expressing her determination with her eyes.
"...Are you really going to take me out?" Ping'er understood the meaning in his eyes, suppressed her heartbeat, and asked tentatively.
Leng Ya nodded.
Ping'er frowned, and began to pace back and forth in the small space, as if thinking hard about something. Leng Ya watched her walking around like ants on a hot pot, waiting for her decision. After a long time, Ping'er turned around, stood in front of him, and said with great determination: "Okay... anyway, you will die if you stay here, and I won't feel at ease if I stay in Beidizong and never see Miss for the rest of my life. , let's fight together. As long as you can escape without being discovered, I can take you out of the Flame Soul Sand."
She raised her fist and said solemnly: "In that case, the time can only be tonight... Is your foot really okay?"
Leng Ya's right foot stomped on the ground fiercely, without any painful twitch on his expression.
"Huh! Blindly trying to be brave... Hey, it's done, now that it's decided, you, you must not hold me back. Forget it, I don't expect to rely on you to go out anyway, the worst is to go out and die with you, I His life was picked up by the young lady back then, in order to see the young lady again, he would risk his life at worst, what is there to be afraid of!" Ping'er said boldly. It sounds more like embolden yourself again.
"Xiaoba Xiaojiu, ask Sister Zhu'er to bring three servings of breakfast and lunch today. On the last day, this girl will have a big meal!"
Xiaoba: "..."
Xiao Jiu: "..."
