Lu Zili didn't know how long he slept.

Because of his poor health, he was particularly lethargic.

When Lu Zili woke up, the sun outside had already shone in from the entrance of the cave, passing through the branches, dappled the ground with light and shadow.

Opening his eyes, he turned his head and saw Xiao Muzhi sitting beside him.Although Xiao Muzhi was seriously injured, after a night's rest, coupled with his strong internal energy and good physique, he seemed to be in better spirits than Lu Zili.

"Are you awake? Eat some cherries." Seeing that Lu Zili woke up, Xiao Muzhi handed a large piece of rosy and clear cherries to Lu Zili's eyes.

Lu Zili was stunned for a moment, he didn't know where he was, how could he wake up early in the morning and someone was holding his favorite cherry to his mouth?It's like being in a royal palace.

Lu Zili was stunned for a long time before he realized, "Thank you, President Xiao!"

"Why does Zili have to be so polite, we are also friends who share weal and woe through life and death, you call me Mo Zhi or Brother Xiao."

"Then thank you, Brother Xiao." Lu Zili licked his mouth, feeling a little hungry after sleeping for so long.But when he licked his mouth, he noticed a bitter smell of herbs in his mouth. Lu Zili tilted his head, he didn't remember that he had taken the medicine. Could it be that he also had the problem of nocturnal excursions?

Xiao Muzhi saw Lu Zili's doubts, and said: "You seemed to be very uncomfortable when you fell asleep at night, so I found some herbs to feed you."

Lu Zili always felt that something was wrong, how did Xiao Muzhi know what kind of illness he had and what medicine he should take, but seeing him was always good intentions, and he was too embarrassed to say anything else, so he could only say, "Sometimes I sleep at night. Not good, Brother Laoxiao is here."

A gentle smile appeared on Xiao Muzhi's pale face, and he still handed over the cherry: "Eat one, the herbs are bitter."

At the end of April, it was the season for cherries to ripen, Lu Zili picked up one from Xiao Muzhi's pocket, it still had clear drops of water on it, it was sweet and sour in his mouth.

A large handful of cherries was basically eaten by Lu Zili by himself, Xiao Muzhi went outside to catch two birds and roasted them for lunch.

The fire has been burning, as if it has not been extinguished since last night.

"After eating, let's go on our way. We'll be safe after crossing the Yangtze River." Xiao Muzhi said as he took the finished bone from Lu Zili's hand, and touched the corner of his mouth with his sleeve. The oil stains are wiped off, and the movements are very skillful in one go.

Lu Zili was taken aback for a moment.

Xiao Muzhi was also taken aback, and then said, "Seeing Zili's appearance, I can't help but think of my younger brother at home. If there is any abruptness, I hope Zili won't get used to it."

Lu Zili also hurriedly laughed, "It seems that brother Xiao really loves the younger generation."

Xiao Muzhi only smiled and said, "If Zili has rested well, let's go on the road."

Lu Zili didn't move, he lowered his head and thought for a while, then raised his head and said, "Zili has been thinking about it for a while, there are a few things that I want to clarify with Brother Xiao first."

"Zi Li can say whatever he wants."

"Zi Li said earlier that Brother Xiao took me, but it was just a burden. If it wasn't for me last night, Brother Xiao would not have been injured by the poisonous arrow. Zili is not good at martial arts, so Brother Xiao still insists on taking me with him?" Lu Although Zili is thinner because of his body, and he grew up among the women in the harem, so he loves to be coquettish and shameless, but he is a man after all, and he doesn't want to be a burden to others.

Xiao Muzhi smiled, and said slowly, "Zi Li's words are too presumptuous and self-deprecating. Ghosting's skills are inherently treacherous. Even without Zi Li, I may not be able to escape completely. And Zi Li is good at detoxification, how can I say Drag me down, seriously, Zili should be my savior."

Xiao Muzhi's speech was just right, making it comfortable to listen to.Lu Zili couldn't find any rebuttals for a while, so he could only say, "Then...for the time being, I will go with leader Xiao. If you encounter danger, leader Xiao doesn't have to worry about me." Lu Zili said again: "I know that the Jade Avalokitesvara belongs to the Qingfeng League, but I want to keep the half of the Jade Avalokitesvara by my side."

Xiao Muzhi still nodded and said, "If you want to keep it, you can keep it. If you want the other half, I will find it for you."

Lu Zili was shocked again. If according to the rumors in the world, Nianyu Guanyin is a treasure that everyone is fighting for, and it also caused turmoil in the world. How come Xiao Muzhi agreed to him so easily.Combined with the events of the past few days, Lu Zili finally made up his mind and asked, "Has Zili been lucky enough to be with Brother Xiao before?"

Xiao Muzhi looked at Lu Zili with a smile and didn't answer.

For some reason, Lu Zili felt a little guilty under Xiao Muzhi's gaze, as if he had let down the other party's intentions by saying such words, "I was injured before, and I don't remember anything after waking up."

Xiao Muzhi still looked at Lu Zili with that smiling gaze, and said, "I know."

"You know? Know... what?"

"Zi Li doesn't remember me anymore", after finishing speaking, Xiao Muzhi showed a trace of loneliness, but it was fleeting, "But it doesn't matter. We used to be very good friends, so now you are hurt , Brother Xiao should take care of you and take you by his side."

Lu Zili didn't expect Xiao Muzhi to be so honest, but he always felt that the meaning in Xiao Muzhi's words was indescribably weird, as if what he knew was not only that he didn't remember the past, but also many other things , "Brother Xiao, can you tell me about the past?"

Xiao Muzhi shook his head, "Some things will be biased if I say them out of my mouth, but if you want to know, one day you will remember."

Having said that, Lu Zili couldn't ask any more questions, and they couldn't stay here forever, they had to cross the Yangtze River as soon as possible.

Because there is only one horse, most of the time Lu Zili is on the horse and Xiao Muzhi walks.Xiao Muzhi was also seriously injured, but no matter what Lu Zili said, Xiao Muzhi refused to let Lu Zili walk, at most sometimes the two of them would ride the same horse.

Fortunately, the weather in April was not too hot, and it was cool in the mountains and forests. The two of them rode a horse together so they didn't feel hot.

The two chatted frequently on the road, and Xiao Muzhi answered Lu Zili's questions about Jianghu Chaotang one by one, including that Qingfengmeng only had half of the Jade Avalokitesvara, and this half was originally sold with his father Xiao Rong. The disappearance and whereabouts of this matter are unknown.

"Is there no news about your father so far?"

"kindness."

"Then are you sure this half is the half of Qingfengmeng?"

Xiao Muzhi nodded.

"It stands to reason that jade pendants are usually carried with you. Since your father is gone, how can Nianyu Guanyin appear? Unless the person who got Nianyu Guanyin also knows where your father is, or in other words, used some means to coerce you. Father handed over Nianyu Guanyin?"

"No, no one can coerce my father, unless he is voluntary. After I go back, I will immediately investigate the origin of this half piece of Jade Guanyin."

Lu Zili thought for a while, and said, "This half piece of Jade Guanyin is for Young Master Wang of Chang'an."

Hearing this, a gentle smile appeared on the corner of Xiao Muzhi's mouth, and then he said: "Is the young prince a teacher of Wang An? He has always been at odds with the Bai family in the court, but he doesn't have the ability to win over my father, so he should There were other people who got in the way."

The two chatted while walking, and passed a small village at dusk, where the two stayed for the night.

The more we get along with Lu Zili, the more he finds it incredible. Thinking of what happened these days, how could someone like Xiao Muzhi descend from the sky, with high martial arts, good personality, and taking care of himself everywhere, and many hobbies are compatible with him. Like eating sweets and drinking sugar water, like staying in bed?This is Lu Zili's own imagination, because Lu Zili is a person who can't sleep, the strange thing is that Xiao Muzhi never wakes him up in the morning, and always gives Lu Zili a feeling that he just woke up illusion.

How did the former owner of this body make such a friend?Lu Zili touched his face, is it because it looks good?But with Xiao Muzhi's background and status, what kind of beauty has never been seen before, it is impossible to rely on just one face.Thinking about it, Lu Zili was really jealous of the former owner of this body.

The distance from Furong Town to the Yangtze River is not far, but because the road is not official, a lot of detours were taken to avoid ghosts, and the health of the two people is not good, so it took four days to reach the river. side.

The Yangtze River here is not as gentle as a downstream, with surging waves and overwhelming momentum.There is only one ferry, and there are several small boats moored at the ferry, with a ferryman sitting on the bow, wearing coir raincoats and bamboo hats.

There are few pedestrians along the river, only the sound of birds and waves.

"Be careful later, if something happens, you will go first by boat." The instinct of many years of walking in the rivers and lakes told him that there was danger here.And both of them knew that Ghost Shadow would not let them go easily. Since the past four days had been calm, there must be a crisis waiting for them by the river.

"Okay." Lu Zili nodded, being hunted down a few times, Lu Zili is considered experienced.

"Are the two guests going to cross the river?" asked a ferryman who was closest to them.

"En." Xiao Muzhi said.

"Then please board the boat." The ferryman said.

Lu Zili walked in front, and just as he stepped on the board with one foot, the ferryman's knife was already in front of him.Before Lu Zili could make a move, the long sword was already facing him.

Lu Zili only felt that someone pushed him from behind, and then his body was on the boat.

"You go first." Xiao Muzhi's words rang in his ears, and immediately, the boat moved, and under the urging of Xiao Muzhi's palm, it flew several feet away from the shore.

By the river, more than a dozen men in black with skull masks surrounded Xiao Muzhi.

Lu Zili stood on the side of the boat, holding an oar, paddling towards the center of the river while looking back at the shore.He knew that he could only leave here as soon as possible, but he couldn't help worrying about Xiao Muzhi. He still had poison left, he had a knife wound on his body, and he had been eating and sleeping in the open these few days, so his skill must not be half as good as usual.

The fight on the riverside became more and more intense, even if the killer of Ghost Shadow was really as treacherous as Ghost Shadow, he couldn't stop the Pingyang Sword in Xiao Muzhi's hand.

Xiao Muzhi used his true energy to the extreme, the sword reflected the river water and sunlight, every inch exuded a strong killing intent.

Where the Pingyang sword swept, there was blood everywhere.

However, ghost shadow people came up wave after wave, obviously much more than the previous two times.

When Lu Zili reached the heart of the river, Xiao Muzhi was still on the shore and could not escape.

Lu Zili's paddling movements couldn't help but stop for a moment, he was afraid that Xiao Muzhi would not be able to come over when he got to the other side, after all the river was fast and wide, it was difficult for Xiao Muzhi to cross the river with light work.

Just as Lu Zili was hesitating, a figure stepped from the shadow of swords and swords.

However, before the figure approached, there was an explosion sound from the bottom of the water, and the figure disappeared in the spray of water all over the sky.
