I Jianghu

Yin Yan didn't deliberately hide his whereabouts, so Tu Jin found out after a while, but within half a day, Yin Yan spent all his money, and then he was penniless.

Muyang Mansion dare not say how big it is, but it is really not small. With such a straightforward way of spending money, Tu Jin can only sigh, Tianyuan City is full of wealth!

Yin Yan prepaid the three-day rent for the best room in Yuanyang Building, Tianzi No. 100, bought some clothes for himself, a white jade inkstone and a Langhao brush, and bought a lot of red dates and plums, plus a basket of fresh vegetables. Fish... Tu Jin wasn't really interested in where Yin Yan spent the money, but what made him more curious was that Yin Yan gave the money to a kid who sold wild vegetables, and the kid brought back a lot of wild vegetables.If you have an injury, why not just buy ready-made medicinal materials, [-] taels, the best medicinal materials in Jiyaotang are probably enough, why bother?Although Tu Jin was curious, he felt that it had nothing to do with him. He was so angry that he cared about Yin Yan, but deliberately ignored it.

In the days that followed, Tu Jin kept sending people to guard the door of the restaurant, not knowing whether he was afraid that something would happen to Yin Yan or that he would run away.Yin Yan was very cooperative, and for three days, he stayed at home and became the best surveillance object for the guards.As soon as the third date arrived, he walked out of the room generously, came to the leader, and said, "Take me to the chain bridge", directly treating the other person as the person to lead the way.

On Duanqing Cliff, the mountain wind roared in the canyon, like the wailing of dead souls.Tu Jin watched a few people walking towards him from afar, and the young man at the head was still dressed in black, which reminded him of the scene when he saw Yin Yan for the first time, dressed in white in the dust, so handsome and noble, not stained with slender dust, But since he entered the mansion, he didn't seem to have seen this man in white again.Although black is mature and steady, it is too mysterious, as if something important is hidden.

Tu Jin frowned while thinking, Yinyan had already come in front of him, and bowed slightly. This time, Yinyan did not obey the government regulations and kneel down. well done.

"Master, Yin Yan is here." He said lightly, like a child who hasn't returned home for a long time saying "I'm back".

Tu Jin's heart trembled, his breathing stopped for a few seconds, and then he looked away for some reason and let out a muffled "um".

"Master" Yinyan passed the things in his hand forward, "Your pen and inkstone should be changed, Yinyan doesn't have extra time to prepare, this can last until Yinyan comes back."

Tu Jin took the things in Yin Yan's hand in a daze, and opened it. It was the white jade inkstone and Langhao brush mentioned in the report. I found the best one, so it turned out that it was prepared for myself?For the 100 taels of silver, I am afraid that these two things will take up more than half of it. I would rather use rough mountain grass to heal myself than spend money on medicine. Could it be related to this?

"You...the 100 taels..." Tu Jin wanted to ask why Yinyan didn't use it on himself?Why did you buy him these two things?Why did the wound die?But when the words came to his lips, he couldn't speak them again.

Such a pause might have misunderstood Yinyan, and he gave Tu Jin a reassuring smile, "After crossing the chain bridge, Yinyan will come back to pay back the money."

Knowing that Yin Yan misunderstood his meaning, Tu Jin should have explained or got angry, but at this moment he had no thoughts and only said "OK".When I turned my head, I saw the iron chain on the edge of the cliff, but it was only three feet away, but it seemed out of reach at the moment. The word "come back" is easy to say, but for those who have really seen the bridge, it is very difficult. Two words, too difficult.When Tu Yao walked the bridge, Tu Jin was still too young, and the heroic and terrifying scene at that time was engraved in his heart like a brand.He thought he didn't have the guts to walk across this bridge, Tu Yao's bloody back was still vivid in his mind, and he would be discouraged whenever he saw it.Now Yinyan wants to leave, it is just a momentary impulse, because I don't know this bridge, so I am lucky...

"Have you thought about it? Once the Tujia iron chain bridge is on, there is no turning back!" Tu Jin couldn't help reconfirming that he really didn't want to walk up it.

Yinyan was silent for a moment after hearing this, took a step back, knelt on the ground, kowtowed to Tu Jin three times, and then said calmly, "Master, as long as you want Yinyan to come back, Yinyan can come back."

As long as he wants?Does he... want to?Tu Jin hesitated, "What if I...don't want to?"

"Then..." Yin Yan raised his head, with a faint smile on the corner of his mouth, as if he was saying something very natural, "Yin Yan is born as a member of the Tu family, and died as a ghost of the Tu family."

———————————————————————————————————

After all, Yin Yan was tied to the chain bridge, his body was hanging on the edge of the cliff, all the weight was on his two wrists, the mountain wind blew over his thin body, his clothes were floating, and he didn't wear any armor inside.A disciple of an apprentice stood on the edge of the cliff holding a stick. There was only one stick, which was called "sending the soul".

The apprentice disciples lined up in a long queue, each with a bow and an arrow, and they just waited for the "send the soul" to end before shooting out the arrow.When people are sent to the opposite side, if everyone takes turns and people are still in the bridge, then it is a sacrificial bridge, and the people on the bridge have only the fate of hanging to death.

With a stick, Tu Jin couldn't help clenching his fists.Yin Yan was obviously unlucky, today, the wind was blowing against him!

The sticks used by the Tu family are made of solid mahogany. The original fifty-hip stick was changed by Tu Jin to a whip. Speaking of which, this was Yin Yan’s first time with a stick. It was only one stroke, but it shocked the whole internal organs with pain, but the body only moved forward. an arm's length away.

When the first arrow was shot, Yinyan finally officially started to "walk" the bridge.It is stipulated that the arrows shot cannot be fatal, but regardless of injuries. Wang Xian's first arrow hit Yin Yan's right ankle. Hence the permanent disability.

Seeing that Tu Jin didn't intend to stop it, the people behind followed suit, Yin Yan's back was as steady as Mount Tai, but his hands were clenched tightly, the shore at the end was boundless, but the blood on his body was draining at a speed he could perceive. For the first time, Yinyan doubted whether he could reach the other side smoothly if he continued like this.

Did Tu Jin really not want to stop him?No, he was shocked, by the cruelty of the disciples of Muyang Mansion, and also by his inexplicable restlessness.He guessed all the scenes of today, except that he missed people's hearts. Whether it was the person walking the bridge, the person performing the execution, or himself, he couldn't tell the truth, as if a rope was tied to the heart and tightened little by little.He has seen many bloody and even more cruel scenes, but the one in front of him made him unbearable.When he reacted, Tu Jin found himself standing on the edge of the cliff, holding an arrow that was about to leave the string in his hand.

"Lord?" The man shook his bow in doubt.

Tu Jin put down his hands in confusion, looked at the long line, suppressed his desire to turn back, and said a little tiredly, "Muyang Mansion is the facade of martial arts, and it is not a decent style to take pleasure in others."

In just one sentence, everyone already understood what Tu Jin meant. As for whether he really cared about the reputation of Muyang Mansion or Yin Yan, everyone didn't know.

Afterwards, the arrows continued to flow, but the initial tricky torture was missing, but even so, the team was more than halfway, and Yin Yan’s back was full of arrows, but he couldn’t even "walk" half of the chain bridge. If this continues, "go" It was almost impossible to get to the other side. Tu Jin's brows were furrowed, and his restless heart hung even higher. He stood there like a sculpture, not saying a word or moving, but his heart was restless. He asked himself over and over again, if today Was anyone else on the bridge, wouldn't he have a cover-up?Is it reluctance?Unwilling?Is it regret, or regret?

Could it be that today is destined to sacrifice the bridge?

Tu Jin panicked, forced himself to calm down and couldn't restrain his panic.But he has too many constraints, too many worries, he can't go to the whole Muyang Mansion, or even the whole decent martial arts forest for one person, not to mention, the rules of the chain bridge were set by the ancestors of the Tu family, and the long-standing loyalty, filial piety and righteousness are in In his heart, as the head of the apprentice family, he can't be messed up!

The howling valley wind, the swaying iron chain, the blood-soaked man and the vulture hovering above his head, Tu Jin's face was ashen, and his fists were clenched.After countless struggles, Tu Jin let go of his fist little by little. In the end, he left the decision to God.

Taizu, if you have a spirit in heaven, show your grandson the way...

Just as I was thinking, suddenly, an all-too-familiar voice came to my ears, "Let go! Let me in!"

The author has something to say: Who is coming?
