[Shadow Guardian] The Wind Rises from the Wild West

Yun hurried back to Zhu Qing's residence, but Ah Jin was not in her room.He thought for a while, then went to the high platform where he worshiped the sky, and he found A Jin who was pale and sitting on the ground.

Ah Jin was only wearing sackcloth, barefoot, and her long hair was draped behind her back.She knelt alone in the middle of the white stone altar in the dark night, her face was pale and desperate.Seeing Yun, she just raised her eyelids slightly, and said weakly: "Master."

Yun knew what she was doing at a glance, ran to her, and angrily scolded: "Why are you so stupid!"

It is rare to hear such a severe reprimand, but Ah Jin smiled: "Master, I have reached the ninth floor."

When the blaze reaches the ninth floor, it means that it has reached the end of self-cultivation, and the fire contract can be performed at any time.

Yun held Ah Jin's wrist as usual, her hand was icy cold, and even her breathing was cold, bringing out a white mist in the summer night.Obviously, she has completely eliminated her own power with the ice breath pill, which is a necessary step to achieve the fire contract.

Yun hugged A Jin who was covered in ice, his tone trembling uncontrollably: "Why are you so stupid! I told you that you can only be the shadow of the prince!"

Ah Jin's voice is soft, if it is usually coquettish, but now it is because of lack of strength. "Master is biased. You can find someone you like, why can't I? I like Jikan, I asked him, and he likes me too. Why can't I go with him?"

Yun regretted that he was too used to Ah Jin, if he had been stricter earlier, why did he end up here. "It's not that you don't know that the fire contract must have the blood of heaven and man, and Jikan is not a royal family!"

"No." Ah Jin broke away from Yun's embrace, and said stubbornly: "Master must have some way to not tell me. Uncle Xiyan doesn't have the blood of heaven and man! Master is lying!"

Yun couldn't refute, he looked at the little girl's eyes full of despair and resignation, paused for a moment, and finally said slowly: "Ajin, the rules of Shadow Gate have always been right, and I didn't lie to you, the fire contract must have a heaven and a man." Only blood can be achieved. Honghan does not have the blood of heaven and man, but I have."

Ah Jin's eyes widened in disbelief.

Yun continued: "So, I'm probably the only one in Shadow Gate who can choose his own master."

His wide eyes gradually filled with tears, Ah Jin still stubbornly said: "No! Master is lying!"

Yun said: "Yun, the seventh son of King Hui, abolished the surname of the king, cut him into a slave, and entered the shadow gate."

Ah Jin shook his head and covered his ears: "Master is lying!"

Yun raised his right hand, showing the clear mark of the fire bird on the back of his hand, which was the mark that was branded by the emperor's brother himself: "This is the evidence."

The totem of the royal family, the slave of the royal family.This is absolutely true.

Ah Jin suddenly grabbed Yun's hand and found a glimmer of hope. "That! Master, let me be your shadow! I will be your shadow guard, and I will neither leave Master nor worry about being separated from Jikan. That's great, isn't it?"

Yun couldn't bear to extinguish the last flame in the little girl's eyes, but he still shook his head. He couldn't deceive her: "You know, the fire contract can only be achieved once, and it can only exist between two people..."

Ah Jin couldn't control it anymore, fell to the ground and burst into tears!

"This is not fair!"

"Why can Master choose the Lord but I can't!"

"God is not fair!"

"Why are the same princes, some people can be emperors and others are slaves! God is so unfair!"

Yun hugged her lightly, the little girl was crying very sadly on this high platform used for offering sacrifices to heaven, in the dark night before dawn.

When she was almost crying, Yun picked her up.As Yun hugged her and walked away, he said, "Don't worry, I won't let you die." Just hearing what he said, Ah Jin felt at ease, and she also trusted her master unconditionally.

If the fire deed is not fulfilled, Ying's body will lose the flaming energy, and the cold poison from years of practice will not be suppressed, killing people.She was not afraid of death, but she firmly believed in Master's words that she could be saved.

Jikan finally rushed over, and Yun handed Ajin to him, "Take her to the room, I'll be over in a while. You guard us outside. Don't let anyone disturb you."

It was not until dawn that the door opened again.Yun came out with a tired face, and Ji Kan immediately went up to meet him. "How about it?"

Yun breathed a sigh of relief, "Ah Jin is fine."

Ji Kan felt relieved, and immediately wanted to go into the house to have a look.Yun stopped him and motioned for the two to move.

When they walked outside the courtyard, Yun stopped and looked at Jikan.The young man who went out with him has always been very wordy, his martial arts are negligible, his temper is really good, and he is very good at taking care of others.If Ah Jin is with him, he should be happy, right?They should be able to live some noisy little days and some sweet little happiness like ordinary couples.

Thinking about it this way, it might be better if there is no fire contract.

Ji Kan stood up straight, feeling as if he had been screened several times from the inside out.Thinking that Yun is Ah Jin's master, he couldn't help but feel guilty of a son-in-law seeing his mother-in-law.Just listen to Yun said: "If you really love Ah Jin, then don't try the fire deed again."

Ji Kan already knew how dangerous their actions were, and he regretted it a long time ago.Immediately said: "Yes! I hate Ah Jin in my heart. I would rather die than her. How can I let her suffer? If you know what the fire deed is like, you will never dare to try it!"

Yun said again: "In the future, don't let people know that Ah Jin is from the Shadow Gate, and stay away from anyone from Heaven. Her body is fine, but after the blaze recovers, she will have seizures every once in a while. It's very sad, I need ice breath pills to relieve it. If there is no fire contract, it will continue like this forever. Do you know?"

Ji Kan solemnly said: "Yes, she suffered so much because of me. I swear that I will protect her and protect her for the rest of my life!"

Yun nodded, took out a small object and handed it to Jikan.

Ji Kan took a look, and it looked familiar, it was the mace pendant given to Yun by the great witch of the grassland.

"I will bring Ah Jin back to the city. If something happens, you can hide on the grassland. This is the token of the great witch, and they should be polite to you. It's not the Central Plains, and the sky should not be that far away."

Jikan accepted the spike pendant.

Yun said again: "When Ah Jin went down the mountain, she should have brought more than 200 ice breath pills. She hastily achieved the ninth level of blazing flames. Her skill is not solid, but it is also a blessing in disguise. Save some use, and it will last for more than ten years." stop……"

Ji Kan couldn't help asking, "What about ten years later?"

Yun thought to himself, do you think that a shadow guard can live for more than ten years after he succeeds?But he still didn't say anything, just said: "There should be a place similar to the cold spring in the bitterly cold place in Mobei. You should look carefully, and you should be able to find it in more than ten years."

"Yes." Ji Kan silently clenched his fists.

Yun sighed, and said simply: "You must treat her well."

He patted Jikan tiredly, turned and left, as if these few words had exhausted his last strength.

Ji Kan hurried into the house and saw Ah Jin sleeping peacefully on the bed, breathing normally.Going to pull Ah Jin's hand, it also returned to normal temperature.There is a kind of luck for the rest of the life.

Yun went back to his room and fell asleep.He had never slept in this room that belonged to him before. He used to sleep in Xi Yanbo's bedroom, and later on the roof of the Hou's mansion.The walls of the room are bare, and the couch is also empty, not even bedding.But the moment Yun fell down, he fell asleep.

It is not easy to heal Ah Jin.Ah Jin had already reached the ninth floor of the blazing flame, and the corresponding cold poison also reached the ninth floor.She washed away her internal energy by herself, and her veins were empty. The cold poison was staring at her, and it was not easy to ignite the blazing internal energy again.

Yun just suffered a strong backlash before, and now he is using his skills to heal his injuries, which is very reluctant.In the end, almost exhaustion of internal strength will succeed.

He fell asleep in a daze and had many messy dreams.

He dreamed that he was running in the palace of Tiandu, and the eunuch was chasing after him. He was very anxious that he must not be overtaken, but he couldn't remember why he ran.

It wasn't until he entered a remote palace that he realized that he wanted to save his mother.But the mother had already drank the poisoned wine for the funeral.The mother hugged him with tears streaming down her face, saying that Yun'er must live a good life, must be obedient and obedient!

The internal officials came to drag him away, he struggled desperately, he thought he was just a six-year-old boy, but suddenly found that his skills were amazing, and he easily got rid of them.Turning his head again, his mother was gone, and Hong Han was standing in front of him.They were standing on the cliff of Qi Mountain, it was the time of Huo Qi's night.His heart was beating wildly, as if he had been dead and was alive again.

Honghan said: I want your hand to hold the sword for me!

I want your intellect to think for me!

I want your heart, hot for me!

In the end, Honghan hugged him and said domineeringly: You are mine!

He clearly misses Hong Han in his heart, but he struggles hard for no reason.It's strange that there is no backlash in the struggle now, and he broke free easily.He wants to say: I am yours, so are you mine too?

Before he could ask, Hong Han was surrounded by a group of women and left.The surroundings were originally a scene of warm spring flowers blooming, but in an instant it turned into dry winter ice and snow.

He feels so cold, since he has achieved success in practicing, he is seldom afraid of the cold.

But the coldness came from within, like... like the feeling of a cold poison attack a long time ago.

Yun suddenly woke up.

It was pitch black.He found that his eyes were covered, his hands and feet were firmly locked by fine steel chains, and his body seemed to be shaking on the carriage.To make matters worse, his internal energy was exhausted too much, and the cold poison that had been with him since he was a child reappeared.
