Alternative Jianghu Adventures

Hearing this cry on the first day of the lunar new year, he was taken aback for a moment, and then he moved his long sword a little closer to the Usai man's neck, his dark green pupils were full of vigilance.

"It's me, Xia Yun!" Xia Yun hurriedly lowered his voice and whispered.

Hearing the familiar voice, the first day of the junior high school immediately reacted, quickly put away the long sword, and couldn't help frowning, "Why are you here?"

why am i hereI still want to ask you why are you here!

Xia Yun resisted not to roll his eyes, but he heard that the soldier from the southern army who was following him was holding a barrier knife, and his tone had not yet receded from his vigilance: "Chagan, do you know each other?"

As he said that, he couldn't help but take a few more glances at his appearance in the first year of junior high school.

With a straight nose and dark green pupils like jewels, he is undoubtedly an authentic Userian.It's just that he was wearing a short robe of the Central Plains style, and what he was carrying was not the saber that the Usai people used to, but judging from the moment just now, it was a long sword made of high-quality materials.

"Chagan?" Chu saw some confusion in Xia Yun's eyes.

Xia Yun quickly stopped the words on the first day of junior high school, raised his volume immediately, and nodded to the soldiers of the Southern Army, "Ah, he is my cousin. Those who look like Usai people have been Sinicized long ago."

After all, the first day of the junior high school nodded very cooperatively, "It's a pleasure to meet you."

The little soldier of the Southern Army obviously didn't expect it to be a false alarm, and unexpectedly ran into another Usai man who could understand Chinese in this place thousands of miles away from home, and he felt a lot more relaxed.

"My cousin and I haven't seen each other for a long time, can you give us a little time to catch up?" Xia Yun said with a smile to Xiaobing.

These days Xia Yun gets along quite well with these Han people. After all, no one will reject a person who can speak his hometown dialect, so Xiao Bing held the rein wisely and said: "Then I will go around and see if there is anything missing. of."

Then he trotted away.

"Why are you here?"

Seeing that the person in the way finally left the field of vision, Xia Yunchu and the two spoke in unison.

The first day of the junior high school frowned.

After he came out of the hidden stake of the Ten Mile Sword, he rode his horse and galloped all the way to Shenyuan Pavilion, and finally came across a water source, but he didn't expect to find that someone was there first.

The horseshoes on the ice made him very concerned. Before he could figure it out, he heard the sound of the horseshoes rushing, so he hid with the horse. Before he could stand still, he found that the traces of the horseshoes had not been destroyed.

Unexpectedly, I ran into Xia Yun in disguise here.

"Don't go back to Shenyuan Pavilion, go directly to Cheng Zhe." Xia Yun sighed, "I wanted to leave Cheng Zhe and wait for you to come back, after all, it's a little inconvenient for him to have such legs—— but that fellow I couldn't wait for a moment, so I left first."

"Where is it?" Chuyi shook his head, also feeling a headache from this troublesome human nature.

"I don't know." Xia Yun pointed north in a general direction, "I only participated in the first step of his interpretation of the map. The location marked on it was a place east of the north, and I don't know what's behind. You... ...do it for yourself."

Hearing the words on the first day of the junior high school, he smiled helplessly: "I didn't even drink a sip of water, and you assigned me again..."

Before he finished speaking, Xia Yun cut him off, "Didn't drink water—didn't you make the hole in the ice?"

Chu nodded.

Xia Yun secretly thought it was bad.The little soldier also said before that there is more than one horseshoe print, even if the prints left by the horses in Shen Yuan Pavilion are removed, the remaining ones cannot be explained!

There are people... There are still a group of people who came to this place before the first day of junior high school!

who is it?

"Chagan—look!" Xiaobing rode his horse towards Xia Yun, and raised his finger.

Xia Yun hurriedly turned his head, and found that from the distant border, a thick roll of black and yellow was rushing towards here with the momentum of thousands of troops.

The chaotic sound of horseshoes merged into a torrential river, and the sound was as loud as a tiger!

Xia Yun subconsciously swallowed his saliva, and hurriedly let Chu Yi get on the horse and go quickly, "I have to report back quickly, and I have something to contact Asuka, if you go north, you should not run into them, hurry up!"

After finishing speaking, he lashed the horsewhip on the first-year junior high school mount, and the animal let out a high-pitched howl, and rushed out like an arrow.

"Let's go too! There are so many of them, they can't beat us!" Xia Yunfei got on his horse, his hair was pulled into a long straight line by the sharp cold wind, and soon he was riding side by side with the soldiers of the Southern Army.

The corners of the mouths of the two were tightly pressed together, and a thin layer of sweat rose from the palms of the hands holding the reins.

Although he didn't see the opponent's flag clearly, the person who can mobilize such a large-scale force in this place must be Lu Kun!

Just one day away!

Xia Yun roared silently in his heart - it was only one day before Suhratai took the initiative to send troops!

How dare Lu Kun!How dare he do it at this time?The medicine Yue'er and Helianqiu gave to the young emperor should not be ready yet!How dare Lu Kun give the order to let the army go deep at this time?Isn't he afraid of the blue fields in the south or the palace changes in the court!

Just as Xia Yun flew back to report the letter.

Inside Shen Yuan Pavilion.

Shen Gongze was routinely checking the notifications sent back from the hidden piles in the capital.

"The crossbow/arrow assembly is [-]% complete."

"Liuhuo is improving."

"The Millennium Ice will arrive in the same day."

"..."

However, when his eyes fell on one of them, he suddenly stood up from the chair, and the calmness that had remained unchanged for thousands of years suddenly loosened.

His face turned pale immediately, he quickly took a deep breath, stabilized his figure, and then strode to knock on the door of the medicine hut.

"What's wrong?" Qiao Anyue opened the wooden door from the inside, only to meet the note that Shen Gongze handed in front of her.

——Nangong is critically ill!Been in bed for three days!

"Nangong" is the place where the young emperor was "imprisoned", so it goes without saying who he refers to!

It's just...how could such a good person suddenly become critically ill?

"What do you think?" Shen Gongze asked Qiao Anyue with his last hope.

Qiao Anyue raised her eyes and looked at Shen Gongze, and she saw the guess that she already knew the answer from the other person's eyes. She spoke slowly, and said the answer that Shen Gongze didn't want to hear, "Poison."

It is poison, and it was the poison that Lu Kun took first.

They can think of a way to make the young emperor "fake illness" so as to reassure Lu Kun, and Lu Kun can naturally make the young emperor really "sick".

"You mean... dead?" He Lianqiu also put down the potion in his hand and walked out.

"Probably not yet." Qiao Anyue comforted, "Yuan Hua is still here with us, instead of letting the royal blood flow outside, it is better to keep it in front of your eyes - after all, if the Nangong is really dead, As long as Yuan Hua is elected by the Southern Army, Lu Kun will lose the legitimacy of 'holding the emperor to command the princes'."

"Lu Kun won't let that one die." Shen Gongze nodded.

He Lianqiu took the rest of his words knowingly, "...but it's just a guarantee of 'not dying', if it's anything else, I can't control it."

In order to win Lu Kun's trust, it was the one in the palace who offered to reduce contact with the outside world as much as possible, except for urgent matters.

After so many years, he has always eaten the meals provided by Lu Kun. Before that, Baicao Valley inserted a dark line in the Tai Hospital to check the ingredients.

But since the burning of Baicao, all the people related to Baicao in Tai Hospital have also been found out. However, no one will consider the matter of ingredients for a while, and no one will think that Lu Kun will start from this place.

Everyone is negligent!

"It doesn't have to be food." Qiao Anyue shook her head, "Maybe it's Gu worms, or maybe it's poison from other places. It's much easier for Lu Kun to contact that person than it is for us to contact Lu Kun, no matter what the method is." It's all possible. I just didn't expect..."

Unexpectedly, Lu Kun has always been stable, but this move is so bold and hasty!

It seems that you really can't wait?

"The ends of the earth."

In a moment of silence, Qiao Anyue said coldly, "Lu Kun must have mixed people with the Northern Army to find this thing."

who is it?Anyone could be - Lei Zhen who had met in Laquan before?Or the... masked general?

"Cheng Zhe." He Lianqiu's breath stopped.

She didn't forget that Cheng Zhe and Yuan Hua were the only ones on their side looking for Tianya Haijiao!

"I'll go." Qiao Anyue thought for a while and suggested.

"But this medicine..." Shen Gongze disagreed.

"Since Lu Kun has already made the first move, the first medicine is optional. We only have Gu poison." Qiao Anyue answered quickly. She glanced at He Lianqiu and quietly gave her a relieved look. Channel:

"Poison is colorless and tasteless, and Gu can be manipulated through the air, but not vice versa. Helian and I have thought about several solutions, and in the end we still think it is appropriate to use Gu to nourish the poison."

"...Now we are only short of time. The cultivation of Gu worms requires patience. Even if we use drugs to force them to grow, it will still take about ten days." He Lianqiu nodded, "Miss Qiao discussed the method with me many times. , there shouldn't be anything wrong."

Shen Gongze was still worried, "But your body..."

"If I fall down, I will trouble my Highness to come down and continue." He Lianqiu said suddenly, and turned slightly sideways, revealing Yuan Chong who was timidly looking at Shen Gongze behind him.

——Staying here is too boring, Qiao Anyue felt that the child still called her master after all, and there were not enough manpower in the medicine house, so it would be frivolous to let the servants in, so she pulled Yuan Chong over to be her assistant.

Yuan Chong was still a little jealous of Shen Gongze - after all, he was deeply impressed by the horror of this man's refusal of his proposal that night.

Shen Gongze stopped talking.

"That's it, I'll leave right away." Qiao Anyue stepped out of the threshold and went to prepare her luggage without saying a word.

"Where are you going to find it? A place as big as Usai." Shen Gongze frowned.

Qiao Anyue turned her head and smiled, just in time for a bird in the sky to fly straight down and land on her shoulder.

The sound of birds chirping kept ringing in her ears-and the words that came back were itchy.

After staying in Shenyuan Pavilion for so long, although she still can't speak bird language, she can still distinguish the meaning of the basic voice - this bird is Xia Yun's little agreement with her before leaving, and she will pass a message when she is bored. Message or something.

"I miss you."

This is what the bird said over and over again.

Qiao Anyue raised her eyebrows, "Xia Yun knows."

After speaking, he wandered away.

And behind her, He Lianqiu sent Shen Gongze back to let him concentrate on matters such as material allocation, and dragged Yuan Chong back to the medicine house and slammed the door shut.

She forcefully supported the edge of the wooden table, her face was pale, and she was caught off guard and vomited blood all over the floor.

"Master Helian, you..."

Yuan Chong has formed a habit of calling everyone Master when he sees him.

"Medicine..." He Lianqiu pointed at a small white porcelain bottle with trembling fingers, and Yuan Chong quickly handed it to her.

After a few pills, Helian Qiu's disordered breathing finally calmed down a bit.

She let out a deep breath, and looked at Yuan Chong again with a serious look in her eyes.

"I'll teach you the steps of nourishing poison with Gu, and within a day, you can do it with perfect score, understand?"

Yuan Chong just felt at a loss. Although he had experienced with Xia Yun and the others for a year, he still had a somewhat cowardly and gentle temperament in his bones. In his cognition, as long as his masters did not die, he would be safe and sound, so he could do nothing. Do anything with fear.

But at this moment, someone told him that such a task related to the world's major events was about to be handed over to him, and no one behind him made assessments and guarantees for him, telling him that this was not an assessment, but that he had to really bet on it. In all battlefields, Yuan Chong instinctively took a step back.

Blood flowed up, Yuan Chong's words were changed into one word by He Lianqiu's unprecedented severity:

"it is good."

The author has something to say: ah ah ah I can't control my brain hole!I, my, my brain has slipped into a bg that I once cheated in!Suddenly, I really want to fill in the hole!

【cover your face】

clam down.Talk about business.

Regarding the fact that Chuyi is from Usai, please go back to my description of his eyes when he first appeared on the stage, pointing to the clip at the end of Chapter 8 :)

Foreshadowing, tsk, this chapter actually has it, but you probably ignore it.

The smile keeps changing.
