It's like a dream

"Hey, have you heard? The Jin, Lan, and Jiang families have now issued a banner to..." The man in the coarse cloth suddenly fell silent. The sun on the sky, compared the posture of archery, and then said: "This way!"

Everyone showed the same shock on their faces, each of them didn't even dare to breathe, and carefully raised their eyes to look at the sun in the sky, almost two wars.This is really... outrageous!

One person sneered, "Hit an egg against a rock!"

Suddenly someone became unwilling and said: "You lackey, why do you say that?"

The man said: "The Wen family has done many injustices and is domineering. Why is it still in full swing? What kind of martial arts does that person do? What about the alchemy hand? Even the old patriarchs of the three families may not have much chance of winning together, let alone the three families now The vitality is seriously injured, and only a group of juniors are left, what kind of situation can it be!"

Those who refuted him were dumbfounded.

Meng Yao leaned over and said: "Brother, I heard what you said, this Wen family's behavior is very arrogant and hateful, he must have committed the anger of the public long ago, if the Taoist schools can share the same hatred, it may not be impossible to achieve things!"

"Heh!" The man sneered, and said, "Even if all the Patriarchs add up, they may not be able to go through ten tricks under that man's hands. Do you think it will be possible?"

Meng Yao gasped and said, "Is it really that powerful?"

"That's not it!" The man clicked his tongue twice, and said, "It's a pity that the Lan family's double walls are unparalleled, this time it will be folded here!"

"It's really a pity!"

Meng Yao agreed twice, but said in her heart: "This change of circumstances may not be my chance! Besides, the Jin family will also participate. If I can make something famous, my father will definitely not ignore me again!"

He had some calculations in his heart, so he immediately packed his bags and threw himself under the Nie family.

Thinking that the Wen family did too many evils on weekdays, this time the three families raised their arms and called out, and the world gathered to respond, and soon tens of thousands of people gathered. Do it, and it must be perfect.

It was just that he was in the way of other people's eyes, and soon rumors spread, and the humiliation he received on the Jinlin Stage that day was also dug out and spread around with embellishments.

Meng Yao came back from fetching water and stopped at the entrance of the cave. Hearing the voices of discussion from inside, he turned and left expressionlessly. After walking for a while, he found a place by the side of the road and squatted down. I slowly ate the dry food with water.

Suddenly there was a shadow cast around her, Meng Yao raised her head, quickly collected the dry food, bowed her head and said, "Sect Master Nie."

Unexpectedly, Nie Mingjue called out his name directly, "Meng Yao?"

Meng Yao said: "Yes."

Nie MingJue said, "Why don't you go into the cave and rest with others?"

Meng Yao opened her mouth, hesitated to speak, and smiled awkwardly, not knowing what to say.

Seeing this, Nie Mingjue passed him and walked towards the cave.He kept his voice hidden, so no one noticed when he went outside the cave, and the people inside were still talking loudly.

Nie Mingjue put his hand on the hilt of the knife, Meng Yao didn't expect him to get angry suddenly, she quickly reached out to stop him, but she didn't stop.

The knife was out of its sheath, the sharp edge slashed, and a rock fell to the ground in front of the cave.There were dozens of monks resting in the cave, each of them holding a bamboo tube for drinking water, they all screamed out in shock from the collapse of the rock, and drew their swords in unison.

Immediately, Nie MingJue said: "Drinking the water that others gave you, but speaking vicious words! You voted for me, didn't you come to kill Wen Gou, but to chew your tongue?!"

There was a commotion in the cave, some retracted their swords, some bounced them, but no one dared to speak.Nie MingJue didn't go into the cave either, and said to Meng Yao, "Come with me." He turned around and walked down the mountain.

Meng Yao followed him for a while before saying, "Thank you, Sect Master Nie." The two walked one after the other for a while, but Meng Yao's head lowered lower and lower, and her steps became heavier and heavier.

"This is a dislike of my background. It is impossible to drive me out? Then why did you have to stand up for me with hypocrisy just now!"

But suddenly he heard Nie MingJue say: "A man, walk upright and stand upright, don't care about these gossips."

Meng Yao didn't expect that Chi Fengzun, who is known for being cold and ruthless, would comfort her with words, her heart warmed up, and she nodded in response: "Yes."

Nie MingJue said: "I've seen you go out in front of the battle. Every time you are in front of the battle, you are the one who stays behind to deal with the aftermath. You did a good job. Keep going. Be upright and stand firm. Don't worry about slander and cowardice. These people who dare to point you behind have nothing to say. Your swordsmanship is very light, but not solid. You have to practice more."

Meng Yao smiled wryly in her heart. He used to think that hard work could make up for one's inadequacy, but later he had to realize that he came from a humble background. He didn't have the skills of a child like the children of ordinary families. , only meekly said: "Thank you, Sect Master Nie, for your suggestion."

Since Meng Yao worked very hard every time he went into battle, Nie Mingjue seemed to have a good impression of him, and it got better and better, so he soon transferred him to his side.

Hejian is Nie Mingjue's main battlefield, and also an important place in the Sun Shooting Campaign.Often several monks from other families would come to Hejian to join him.Among the monks who came one time was Lan Xichen.

At this time, Lan Xichen was no longer the Lan Huan who was hunted down by the Wen family like a stray dog. He was taller, dressed in a blue school uniform, with a fluttering forehead, and looked even more handsome.

Meng Yao was not sure what his attitude was now, and offered the teacup as respectfully as he did to others, but Lan Xichen did not treat him with the same attitude as others, and thanked him softly.The corners of Meng Yao's lips curled up slightly, she didn't say much, she stepped back behind Nie MingJue and stood still.

Nie Mingjue is a serious person with no smile and no smile, but when facing Lan Xichen, he actually softened his expression and started talking with him.The other monks wanted to join in, but they couldn't get in the conversation after a few times. Nie Mingjue treated them like nothing, and they were very boring, but after a while, he got up and said goodbye.

As soon as the others left, Lan Xichen said to Meng Yao, "Coincidentally, you're under Brother Mingjue's flag."

Nie Mingjue said, "What, have you seen it?"

Meng Yao smiled and said, "Mr. Zewu, I have seen it before."

Nie MingJue asked, "Where is it?"

Lan Xichen shook his head with a smile and said, "I'll be ashamed if I say it. It's better not to say it. Brother Mingjue, don't ask me any more. It's a lifelong shame, it's hard to tell."

Nie MingJue said, "Are you afraid of losing face in front of me?"

Meng Yao said: "Jun Zewu doesn't want to say it, so let's not say it."

The three of you said one sentence to another, and the chat was quite relaxed and casual.Talk about business for a while, and gossip for a while.Meng Yao only felt that the grievances in her heart for many days had dissipated a lot, and her gaze became softer when she moved to Lan Xichen.

When Meng Yao had made some achievements in the Nie family, Nie Mingjue wrote a letter of recommendation to the Jin family and sent him back to the Jin family currently stationed in Langye.

Meng Yao was grateful for his kindness, although she was worried that he would be made things difficult by the monks of the Jin family, she didn't want to dampen his interest, so she thanked her a thousand times and rushed to the Langya area, and found that as expected, he was in Jin family that day. Lintai's matter has long been a laughing stock, and the monks of the Jin family look down on him very much.But Meng Yao didn't care too much, she just rushed forward, just like when she was in the Nie family, she devoted herself to everything and only wanted to be promoted as soon as possible.

It's just that no matter how hard he tries, it never seems to work.

Meng Yao held her breath.Finally, after a certain battle, he was asked to find an opportunity.Meng Yao pulled the sword out of the little leader's body without change, and was about to leave when she suddenly heard the familiar sound of the blade being unsheathed, and she was so frightened that the souls of the dead immediately trembled, she turned her head and said tremblingly: "...Sect Master Nie?"

Nie MingJue pulled out all the long knives from their sheaths.The blade was bright, but the blade was slightly blood red.

Meng Yao dropped the sword all of a sudden, and said, "Sect Master Nie, Sect Master Nie! Master Chi Feng, please wait, please wait! Listen to my explanation!"

Nie MingJue shouted, "What do you want to explain?!"

Meng Yao scrambled and rushed over, saying: "I have no choice but to, I have no choice!"

Nie MingJue said angrily: "What are you forced to do?! When I sent you here, what did I say?!"

Meng Yao knelt down at his feet and said: "Sect Master Nie, Sect Master Nie, listen to me! I join the banner of the Lanling Jin Sect, and this person is my superior. He looks down on me on weekdays, and often insults and scolds me in every possible way... ..."

Nie MingJue said, "So you killed him?"

Meng Yao said: "No! It's not because of this! I can't bear any humiliation, how can I not bear just beating and scolding! It's just that every time we capture a stronghold of Wen's, I spend a lot of effort, but he said lightly With a few words and a few strokes of pen, I assigned this military exploit to him, saying that it has nothing to do with me. This is not the first time, every time, every time! I reasoned with him, but he didn't care at all. I asked someone else, No one listened to me either. Just now he said that my mother, my mother is... I couldn't bear it anymore, and I lost my head for a while, so I missed it!"

Nie MingJue picked up his collar and said, "You're lying! You couldn't bear it, and lost your hand in a moment of rage? When a person who is utterly irritated, when he kills someone, will he have the same expression as you did just now? Will you deliberately choose this hidden forest who just fought in a fight? Will you deliberately use Wen's sword, Wen's swordsmanship to kill him, and pretend to be a Wen dog to sneak attack, so that you can frame him?"

Meng Yao raised her hand and swore: "What I said is true! Everything is true!"

Nie MingJue said angrily: "Even if it's true, you can't kill him! It's just military exploits! Do you care so much about this vanity?!"

Meng Yao couldn't believe it: "It's just military exploits?"

He opened his eyes wide, and said: "What is military merit? Chifeng-zun, do you know how much effort I have spent for this merit? How much has I suffered?! Vanity? Without this vanity, I have nothing !"

Nie Mingjue said: "I see that all your thoughts are devoted to unrighteous ways! Meng Yao, let me ask you, is it the first time you were at the cave, did you deliberately pretend to be that weak state of being bullied, pretending to be bullied by others?" Let me see, so that I can stand up for you?"

Just when Meng Yao was about to speak, Nie MingJue shouted, "Don't lie in front of me!"

Shocked, Meng Yao swallowed the Huatou into her stomach, knelt on the ground, trembling all over, and firmly grasped the five fingers of her right hand into the soil.

After a while, Nie MingJue slowly put the knife back into its sheath, and said, "I won't move you."

Meng Yao raised her head suddenly, and Nie MingJue said again: "Go and confess your crime yourself. You can deal with it as you want."

After being stunned for a while, Meng Yao said: "...Zun Chifeng, I can't let this step go."

Nie MingJue said coldly: "This step of yours is the wrong way."

Meng Yao said: "You are killing me."

Nie MingJue said: "If what you said is true, then it's nothing. Go, repent and start a new life."

Meng Yao whispered: "...my father hasn't seen me yet."

Nie Mingjue remained indifferent.

Meng Yao knew that he had made up his mind, if she didn't agree at this moment, it would be difficult for her to be kind, so she had to do what was difficult.After getting away, he immediately started to pack his luggage, and ran out of Langya Land overnight.

After leaving Langya, Meng Yao had time to rest now, and couldn't help but feel a little dazed. Nie Mingjue would definitely not be able to tolerate him after this incident, and it was almost impossible to add the Sun Shooting Sign.But if he can't make achievements that are difficult to ignore in the Sun Shooting Campaign, how can he make Jin Guangshan treat him differently?

Meng Yao sighed, walked forward aimlessly, walked to a dense forest, happened to meet a tree hole covered by weeds, recalled that she passed through such a tree hole after being kicked off Jinlin Terrace that day , couldn't help feeling sad, and said with a wry smile: "Meng Yao, Meng Yao, you are really a lost dog!"

He pushed aside the weeds, only to see a young man with a greasy hair and a powdered face in a sun-burning robe. This man's robe was full of dried blood, and he was limp on the ground as if he had no bones. He stared at the unexpected visitor with wide eyes in horror. He wailed: "No, don't kill me! I am a direct descendant of the Wen family, you saved me, and when I return to the Wen family, I will definitely be rewarded!"

Meng Yao wanted to finish him with a sword, but changed her mind after hearing this.

"Since there is no room for me on the right path, why not go the other way, sneak into the Wen family, and then slowly figure it out!"

Thinking of this, Meng Yao put down her hand on the sword, showing a worried look, and said repeatedly: "What's the matter? Young master, are you okay?"

He has a white face and emerald eyebrows, and is small in stature. He looks like a boy who hasn't grown up. At this moment, his brows and eyes are anxious and worried, and his fists don't seem to be fake. Wen Tang can't help feeling fond of him, and his vigilance is greatly reduced. He said to him: " Hurry up and get some herbs for me, and be careful not to let others find out."

Meng Yao nodded, as if she was an innocent young man, she ran away quickly, and shouted, "Wait for me! I can run very fast!"

Meng Yao rescued him, but because he was injured and unable to move, she naturally stayed beside Wen Tang as a guard and sent him all the way back to Wen's.

When they arrived at Wen's gate, the two of them were ushered in by servants. Wen Tang half-lyed on the couch, took his hand and said, "Since you have nowhere to go, why don't you stay at Wen's and stay with me."

Meng Yao was waiting for his words, but she showed hesitation on her face, and said, "Isn't this inappropriate? I'm not someone who wants to repay you..."

Wen Tang hurriedly said: "I know you are not that kind of person, it's just me... I..." When he said this, his ears suddenly turned red, and he couldn't continue.

Meng Yao uttered a curse in her heart, and interrupted him: "That's good. I thank Mr. Wen for taking me in."

Wen Tang blushed and nodded.
