Baiyun Hidden Sword [Lu Xiaofeng + Sword III]

Ye Gucheng went to the cliff in the west of the city to practice swords. He hasn't really used it since he created the Flying Immortal Form. Last time when Lu Xiaofeng visited the Nanwang Mansion at night, he only used [-]% of his skills. Not based on best effort.

After returning from the Nanwang Mansion, he happened to bump into Ye Linghan who was lying in his room, his thoughts were in a mess and he even forgot the mouth shape that Lu Xiaofeng was thinking about.

The situation was critical at the time, and the two of them were almost concentrating on such a thrilling confrontation that others watched but did not use their real skills. Coupled with the dim lights, it was really difficult to see clearly.

——Could it be that Lu Xiaofeng just wanted him to lose sight?

He clearly knows how powerful and smart this man is, that's why he cares so much about that momentary change. If Lu Xiaofeng notices something carelessly, he may end up with nothing but a complete failure. end.

Although he was disturbed in his heart, he didn't see any instability in his swordsmanship.

It was already dusk when we descended the cliff, and several lamps were lit on the city tower not far away, no matter how raging the sea wind was, they never seemed to go out.

Ye Gucheng's heart trembled when he saw it, he withdrew his sword and walked over there.

As he expected, Shi Qi was indeed waiting for him, but no one else was there.

Standing under the lamp, she pursed her lips and bowed towards him, holding a delicate porcelain vase with a warm texture in her hand. Although she was smiling, she felt forced no matter how you looked at it.

"What's the matter?"

"I thought that since the city lord came up, he should know what was going on."

Ye Gucheng cast his eyes on the porcelain bottle in her hand, raised his eyebrows coldly, "Just speak up if you have something to say."

"The city lord has seldom been angry with me in these years. The last time it seems to be because of..." She paused, her face was a little gloomy, and then she seemed to have made a decision, and handed over the porcelain bottle in her hand, "You should understand , I can't always stand by your side."

This sentence was like a curse, causing Ye Gucheng's expression to change suddenly, "This is?"

"It's just as you think." Shi Qi let go of his hand, and when he turned around, there was still a helpless smile on his face, "You must not forget that there are many things that I can do nothing about. Let her continue to be curious, shouldn't she?"

Ye Gucheng didn't open the porcelain bottle after receiving it, because he could already guess what was inside without opening it, and Shi Qi's intention of choosing this place to meet him today is self-evident.

"Although you have said that you will be measured, but in this case..." She suddenly raised her face, "You can only fool me. Although it seems a bit like asking for credit, if I didn't mediate in it, I'm afraid It’s not up to you to make a decision now.”

For more than ten years, she has always been well-behaved and docile, but she almost forgot her original temperament. Ye Gucheng also nodded, "I know."

"Of course you know, you just don't want to." She sneered, and her tone was no longer as submissive and respectful as before. "I'm also afraid of death. If I have to choose, what will I do?"

The words that sounded like a threat did not move him, the sea breeze blew the clothes of the two of them a little, he squeezed the porcelain bottle in his hand into fine powder and sprinkled it in the wind, "You don't need to embarrass me, I will do it myself Keep her safe."

Shi Qi, who was still smiling, turned cold in an instant, and his tone also became cold, "Since you are so confident, do I not need to hold back anymore?!"

Ye Gucheng paused for a long time before looking at her, his tone was quite firm, "You won't."

After finishing speaking, he turned around and left in a huff, his movements were so crisp and without any hesitation, that Shi Qi, who was still on the tower, had no time to speak again.

The sea breeze was still very strong, and it was a little weaker when he approached the city lord's mansion. He suppressed the last trace of uncertainty in his heart when he saw that the lanterns on the tower had been extinguished.

There has never been anything that can be completely determined and guaranteed in the world, and his attitude is only relying on some reasons that would hurt people if he said it.

But after all, after more than ten years of getting along with each other, he is also very sure what it means for Shi Qi to speak in such a tone.

Time is indeed running out, if there is even a small mistake, the plans and calculations of these years can only be in vain.

Even he himself doesn't want to see this kind of situation, let alone someone who is more concerned about this matter.

Ye Linghan was teasing fish by the pond in the backyard of the city lord's mansion. She rolled up her sleeves and exposed a small half of her arm. From a distance of five or six feet, she could see the bone that flickered when she turned her wrist.

...It turned out to be so thin.

He didn't deliberately slow down his movements, and when he walked slowly to the pond, she also raised her head, "Junior Brother, have you returned from sword practice?"

"Ah."

"There are still a few days before we can leave for the Central Plains." Ye Linghan didn't stand up, and didn't throw away the small bamboo pole used to tease goldfish in his hand, "By the way, why didn't I see Qi Qi again when I woke up?" gone?"

Ye Gucheng shook his head, "Maybe there is something wrong."

She didn't ask any more questions, and after teasing for a while, she patted the dust and stood up, and put the cuffs back in place, "Then when can I eat..."

Hearing what she said, Ye Gucheng heaved a sigh of relief in his heart, couldn't help but pursed his lips and laughed at himself thinking too much, "Go now?"

Unexpectedly, Ye Linghan just tilted his head to meet his eyes, as if he had found some treasure, his eyes were full of surprise, "Junior brother, you actually laughed?!"

Anyway, this kind of action was already too common for her to do, so Ye Gucheng let her pinch his side face.

"Hey, do you know, when I saw you in Jiangnan for the first time, I thought you were the kind of person who couldn't smile at all. I told you that you should smile more because you look so good-looking."

As the person in front of him spoke, he pulled the corners of his mouth and tilted his head as if to demonstrate to him. The jewelry on his forehead made a crisp sound as a result of her movements, and a lock of hair fell next to her eyes, making her fair complexion look like a A pink-faced peach blossom cannot be summed up in a simple sentence.

No matter how good Ye Gucheng's concentration was, his breathing paused for a moment, and then he twitched the corners of his lips, "Let's go eat."

Although it was only a very shallow arc, it was worth Ye Linghan's happiness for a while.

When Shi Qi came back, they were almost finished eating, Ye Linghan managed to catch another familiar person, and went over to talk to him without thinking.

"Ah, I'm really sorry to make Miss Ye worry. I just have some things to buy."

"Hey, what did you go to buy?" She looked at Shiqi's empty hand, a little curious.

The other party turned half of his body and pointed at her to the boy who was carrying things into the yard, "It's just something we need in the kitchen. If Miss Ye and the city lord have finished eating, I'll let someone clean it up first."

Ye Gucheng didn't nod or object, and his expression returned to his usual indifferent look.

Although Ye Linghan didn't notice the exchange of eyes between the two of them, he felt that the atmosphere suddenly became a little stiff, and when he turned his head, Ye Gucheng was no longer in the hall, so he couldn't help wondering, "Hey, junior brother..."

"Maybe the city lord has something to deal with. Didn't Ms. Ye say that she didn't sleep well last night? Why don't you rest early today."

As soon as she mentioned last night, Ye Linghan couldn't help but think of the charming and ambiguous scene at that time, and immediately lost the desire to talk to her for a while, and hurriedly said goodbye and slipped back to the next door.

I can't help but blush just thinking about such a thing as stopping a man from leaving while only wearing a bellyband and light gauze.

Because he will leave Feixian Island soon, Ye Linghan has already started to pack his luggage slowly in the next few days.She didn't bring many things with her when she came out of the Longmen Desert, but during the days in Baiyun City, she also made several new clothes with the fabrics bought by Shiqi Gang, and when she was about to leave, she had more things than when she came. double.

Naturally, there is no need to doubt the strength of the Tibetan sword disciples, but she has a lot of burdens, and she dislikes taking trouble. Fortunately, Shi Qi comforted her and said that because of the long journey, they should arrange a carriage for them when they arrive on the shore.

Everything seemed to be calm without any waves, but Ye Linghan didn't think about the previous incident like she showed.

If she was really so careless, there was no possibility of surviving in the Longmen Desert in the past two years, not to mention she often went to the depths of the desert to explore the way.

The relationship between Shi Qi and Ye Gucheng seems to be the same as before, but in fact, they seem to be in harmony at all. She knows what happened in it, and she knows that it is impossible to ask anyone directly to find out anything useful. Fortunately, she will accompany the two of them to pretend to the end and see. What kind of medicine does Ye Gucheng sell in the gourd?

The night before leaving, Ye Linghan went back to the other courtyard very early, re-checked everything that was missing, and then relaxed a little.

The maids who took care of her daily life were sent out by her early in the morning. While she was wondering if she would be able to figure out the whole thing after she left, she poured the hot water prepared by the maids into the wooden bucket in front of the bed. , and almost burned his hand because of absent-mindedness.

The room was filled with heat, and after testing the water temperature, she soaked in it without much hesitation, thinking in her heart whether she should contact Sikong Zhaixing or Lu Xiaofeng in time when she left South China Sea.

With the door behind her back, and as long as she moved the water in the barrel, it would make a lot of noise, she didn't notice the window where a small hole was suddenly dug.

She was a little dizzy when she noticed that there seemed to be something wrong with the hot air in the room.

She often encountered this kind of thing in the desert, so at this time she didn't immediately panic and forget what to do, but bit the tip of her tongue decisively, and as the taste of blood permeated the whole mouth, her chaotic mind also There seemed to be an instant clarity.

In the bundle next to the bed is her homemade Jiuhua Yulu pill, which has a great effect on any drug, but it doesn't take effect immediately.

Ye Linghan, who hurriedly wrapped up a piece of clothes and climbed out of the barrel, swallowed one and immediately pricked up his ears to listen to the movement outside, without even having time to think about why.

Her actions just now were not small, maybe people outside have heard it, there are still a few bone nails in the hidden weapon bag on her body, Ye Linghan held one and hid behind the bed curtain holding her breath, waiting for the other party to attack first.

The person's qinggong attainments were not good, and she heard the voice and judged the direction as soon as she moved, and the bone nail in her hand flew out in an instant, passing through the hollow pattern in the middle of the wooden window with great precision.

"what……!"

After a brief and rapid exclamation, the footsteps of the other party became messy, and she didn't care so much anymore, she jumped off the bed and was ready to chase.

But to her surprise, it was Ye Gucheng standing outside the door.
