Those years when I climbed the wall

Looking back at the blood smeared on the back of his eyes and shoulders, Mu Yunqi's voice was flat: "It's nothing, just a small injury."

"Why do you..." Shao Jingheng was annoyed.

"The icy ground is too slippery, we can't dodge it in time." Interrupted, Mu Yunqi pointed forward: "Take Huo Lankun, we can go out safely!"

After the edict was issued, Guo Kai and Zeng Wuhua rushed forward!Huo Lankun's bodyguards have also arrived, trying their best to protect the lord.

"Jing Heng, go help him and wait for him to take down Huo Lankun!" Mu Yunqi decided to fight with his back against the odds.

After a little hesitation, Shao Jingheng nodded, and did not forget to tell him before leaving: "Be careful!"

The wetness on the shoulders was still expanding, and Mu Yunqi seemed to feel a chill on his back: Although the injury was not serious, it was unprecedented, presumably the excess discomfort was an illusion born of lingering fear, and he tried his best to ignore it.Now he hides in a corner where no one is around—he also knows that it is reckless to block the sword, but the other person's life is safe in exchange for a small injury, even if he starts all over again, he has no choice!It's just that right now, unless he has to, he will never kiss Shi Shi again: in this situation, protecting yourself is the only way to relieve everyone's future worries.

"Om—" The familiar sharp sound rang out again, shaking people's hairs on end.

"Your Majesty, get out of here quickly, the celestial beings are furious, and they might want to kill them!" The Taoist priest just now appeared at the entrance of the cave, his face pale, and he warned loudly.

Huo Lankun fled back after hearing the sound, and the guards retreated with him.

Glancing at the Mingquan sword that was still screaming and trembling on the ground, Mu Yunqi quickly walked a few steps to Shao Jingheng's side: "Jing Heng, let's go too!"

Just after exiting the narrow corridor, the sound of screaming came from behind, and the guards behind dodged to dodge. The next moment, the shadow of the sword flashed, and with a "clang", the sword fell to the ground, unbiased, and was praying for Mu Yun's feet. side.

Regardless of enemy or friend, most of the eyes in the cave focused on the blood-stained long sword, and for a long while, there was no sound.

The sword also fell silent.

The Taoist whispered something to Huo Lankun.

Suspicious eyes swept across Mu Yunqi, Huo Lankun's face was seven points cold, three points disdainful: "It's just a sword, Xiao Wang doesn't believe it has any supernatural powers! This may be the conspiracy of this gangster envoy, the purpose is to scare Let's go, just swallow Li Tianshi's elixirs and cheats!" Taking two steps forward, his eyes were fierce: "I don't care where you come from or what your purpose is, but if you only hand over Li Tianshi's relics, I will let you go. On the one hand, I will leave a whole body with you!"

As soon as the words fell, he heard a sneer—it was Guo Kai: "Yelang is arrogant, let's see who died in the end!" Yan Jian rushed forward with his sword.

The melee resumes.

After staying there, Mu Yunqi was leaning against the cave wall to calm down, when he suddenly felt movement in front of him, and raised his eyes to see Yiyou lying about a foot away.The sword under his feet began to scream again, which made people feel upset and irritable.The next moment, for some unknown reason, he bent down and touched the hilt of the sword with his hand, and the piercing sound stopped—it was like a stream of clear water flowing through his body in an instant, soothing the mind, clearing the ears and eyesight!

"General Guo!" Someone shouted.

Mu Yunqi raised his head and saw that Guo Kai was surrounded by three Youren, so he blocked the knife from the front, but he might as well be attacked by another person, and he took two steps back, spitting blood.

Danger!Mu Yun Qifei stepped forward and held his sword to block the knife for him. Out of the corner of his eye, he saw the light of the left and right swords being pressed down again.

Taking two steps back, Mu Yunqi glanced across the crowd, and saw Huo Lankun who was hiding behind was staring at him: with a wave of his hand, several people rushed to his side.Mu Yunqi went straight to meet him, his sword rising and falling, invincible.

"Your Majesty, this sword has recognized its owner, so don't act recklessly!" The Taoist persuaded, "Let's go."

Repelling a group of comers, Mu Yunqi seemed to be thinking.

"Take the pill!" Huo Lankun gritted his teeth and ordered loudly.

"No, this meeting violated the taboo of heavenly masters!" The Taoist shouted, but unfortunately no one paid attention.

Five or six Youren raised their necks, swallowed the elixir, and rushed forward.

On the other side, Shao Jingheng stabbed the two of them down, saw the shadow of the knife coming again, and raised his sword to block it, but felt his wrist was numb, took two steps back, turned his head to avoid the chasing sharp blade, the sword pointed straight at the eyes of the other, Unexpectedly, he suddenly felt a pain in his chest and abdomen, and the person flew out - he was kicked by the other person!

With a sweet throat, blood gushed out of his mouth, and he had no time to look after himself, what Shao Jingheng was thinking of at the moment was Mu Yunqi.Looking up anxiously, I suddenly saw a flash of blue light - the medicine man who had injured himself just now fell to the ground and convulsed like a lightning strike!

This is--

Before he could think about it, a figure in white clothes seemed to descend from the sky: a long sword in his hand, and his clothes fluttering. If it wasn't for the shocking bright red on the back shoulder, it would make people think that an exile is coming to this world.

He opened his mouth, but Shao Jingheng was unable to make a sound.

After a moment of silence, the corners of Ruxue's clothes were turned over, and when the sleeves of the clothes were flicked, several rays of light flew out, knocking down the medicine man who was fighting with Guo Kai.

"This sword energy can actually hurt people!" The voices of the people panicked.

The clang stopped, and several medicine men gathered in one place, looking panic-stricken.

"Sword Qi specializes in conquering pills." A faint voice came out later, "Master Li is most afraid of using immortal arts aside, it is against the law of heaven for mortals to use pills to nourish their spiritual power, let alone do it here..." The voice was low.

"What is the way of heaven? I am the way of heaven!" Huo Lankun was furious, and pointed forward hysterically: "I will be rewarded for killing all these Chinese and rats! Otherwise, you will be treated as deserters!"

As soon as the word fell, no one dared to hesitate, that is, to make a comeback.

The sword light rose and swept forward, half of the attackers fell to the ground.

"Only by taking Huo Lankun today, can we leave here alive!" Guo Kai pointed his sword forward, and Guo Kai's words were heart-warming again.

Fighting resumed, and the sound of fighting filled the fairy cave cave, which was originally a realm outside the world, and the situation was unbearable.

A trace of resentment leapt up his brows, Mu Yunqi flew with his sword, cut the throats of the two medicine men, and then used his strength to go up, over the head of Youren who was rushing, and kicked down the person who blocked the way, and pointed his sword at the man and went away——

A cold light flashed, and the icy sword's edge reached his throat.Holankun was dumbfounded.

"Your Majesty has been hijacked!" a voice shouted.

A scuffle ended here.

Not wanting to disturb the fairy, Mu Yun ordered the guards to escort Huo Lankun, and the group withdrew from the ice cave.

Seeing the light of day again, the body and mind are lightened.Looking back at everyone, all of them are blood-stained!Lowering his head and squeezing the sword that saved the lives of a thousand people, Mu Yunqi felt dizzy—the injury on the back shoulder didn't seem to be very painful, but the chill penetrated the skin and bone, and the discomfort was indescribable.

"Master, how are you?" Zeng Wuhua said anxiously.

"Jing Heng..." Mu Yun prayed for the person who was bleeding from the corner of his mouth.

He smiled hard, but it was dismal, and the man raised his hand to wipe away the blood: "Small injury, no problem." Said Zeng Wuhua: "Bring the medicine in the bag, and treat everyone on the spot."

The medicine was taken, and all the wounded either took it or applied it.Taking advantage of the time to sit and rest for a while, Mu Yun summoned Lu Chongning, who was less seriously injured, and handed the Mingquan sword: "Use this to break ice on the lake, it will be twice the result with half the effort!"

Lu Chongning took the order, and then touched the hilt of the sword with his hand, and a sharp whistling sound came out, causing people nearby to frown and cover their ears.

"This..." The movement froze, and Lu Chongning was confused.

"The Taoist said just now that this sword recognizes the owner." Shao Jingheng frowned.

After silence.

Guo Kai approached the front fork: "Can Rong Chen give it a try?"

Nodding, Mu Yunqi handed over the sword.Respectfully received it, Guo Kai looked fine at first glance, but before he could take a step, he heard a sharp cry coming from the blade of the sword, Guo Kai suddenly seemed to be holding a heavy weight in his hand, unable to control himself, he staggered for a few steps, and actually knelt down on one knee , The sword fell in response to the sound, as if being pulled by a strand of profound force, it slid back to Mu Yunqi's feet.

"I've said it before." Glancing over at the embarrassed man, Shao Jingheng's eyes showed sarcasm.

Sitting down on the spot, Guo Kai seemed not to hear, and closed his eyes to calm himself down.

Picking up the sword, Mu Yunqi went straight to the lake without saying a word.The guards followed.Standing on the ice, he watched him stab with the sword tentatively: as expected, the sword's edge entered the ice without any effort!In just a moment, dozens of ice floes were taken out.

Taking advantage of the gap between the guards transporting ice, Mu Yun prayed to bring the Taoist man back.

I don't know if it was a hexagram for myself, knowing that there is no danger of life for a while, or because she is sincere and intelligent, knowing that the person in front of her has no intention of killing again, the Taoist priest who claims to be "Zhengjue Zhenren" looks calm and asks him , seems to know everything.

According to him, the original intention of Gao Shiju to find him and other famous scholars in the immortal sect was to make longevity pills for the terminally ill Empress Dowager Shao But for this reason, all of them died suddenly due to poisoning at an early age, so a rule was established that Daxi, from the emperor to the hundred officials, was not allowed to support Taoists and warlocks, and he was not allowed to take pills! Looking for a sorcerer to make alchemy, you have to do it in secret.), but who would have expected that before the alchemy was made, Empress Shao died of cold food.Fearing that Gao Shiju would be angry, in order to protect themselves, the Taoists rummaged through ancient books and found several fairy prescriptions to offer. Among them, apart from the elixir of life, there was a golden pill that was invulnerable to swords and guns after taking it, and Gao Shiju was delighted to hear it , Even if he waits for alchemy in the furnace!Who knows that the ancient prescription is incomplete, the efficacy of the golden elixir is far from the record, and there is no improvement over the years, Gao Shiju is already annoyed. This northern land was forced to defect to Huo Lankun, who was equally ambitious, and was driven by him to make alchemy.

Mu Yunqi thought to himself, returning to Yungu to hide soldiers was really only started after the cold food change, it fits with what this Taoist said.Because I have seventy-eight percent believe him to be true.After pondering, he raised the sword in his hand: "What do you mean by saying that this sword recognizes the master?"

Holding his beard with three fingers, the Taoist at first glance looks a bit fairy-like: "This sword of Mingquan used to follow the celestial master Li Yi to slay demons and save all living beings. Follow the celestial master to ascend to the immortal. It has been sealed in this polar cold environment for thousands of years. I think it is the celestial master's painstaking efforts to make him practice quietly and get rid of violence." Shaking his head and sighing: "It's a pity that the effect is not obvious!"

"Arrogance?" Mu Yunqi frowned and stared at the sword that looked like an ordinary thing when it was quiet, "You mean that this sword is so violent because of its murderous aura?"

"Since that's the case, seal it in the cave and continue to practice, so as not to hurt innocent people!" Shao Jingheng suggested.

The Taoist shook his head: "It's all in vain! As I said, this sword has recognized its owner, and no one can seal it back." Turning his eyes back to Mu Yunqi, he was full of reverence: "The sword has a spirit, although it is brutal because of the heavy killing. The anger is hard to dissipate, but it is good to taste the side of the celestial master, influenced by the way of heaven, and the righteousness is not lost, that is, the so-called evil cannot overcome the righteous! Although it hurts you, it also touches blood to know people and recognizes you as the master. For this reason, Presumably, besides your special fate, it is also because you have righteousness in your heart, so you are the only one who can control this sword at the moment. Your Excellency will not violate the way of heaven, but keep the integrity, so that not only will it be blameless, but it may also help others Get rid of the evil and return to the righteous, cultivate the righteous fruit. This is the merit of the world, why not do it?"

If it wasn't for what he just experienced, Mu Yunqi must have thought that this old man was lying and flattering him just to save his life!However, right now, I have no choice but to believe in its existence, and simply think that this sword can break the power of medicine, which is a great benefit. Compared with it, the so-called murderous energy will slowly wear off in the end.After the initial determination of the mind, he put the sword into its sheath.

At this moment, Wen Shao Jingheng asked: "What you have refined for King Jia is not just Yanshou Wan and this golden elixir for nourishing spiritual power?" He took a step forward, and his voice was aggressive: "Aren't there many harmful things?"

After pondering for a while, Mu Yunqi immediately understood what he meant, and then said: "The poisonous pill you refined should have an antidote, and if you offer it immediately, the crime will be reduced!"

The Taoist said crisply: "Whoever is poisoned, you have to wait for the poor Taoist to have a pulse diagnosis with him, and then you will know how to cure it."

Mu Yunqi gestured to the side.

Guo Kai stepped forward, stretched out his hand to check the Taoist's pulse, and glanced back at the arrogant man, the corners of his mouth curled up: A man with an evil face can also have a kind heart?It seems that in the future, the word "narrow-minded" should be used with caution.

Fortunately, what he was suffering from was just an ordinary poison. Zhengjue gave him a few pills and ordered him to take it for five days, and he would recover.

As soon as it was done, Shao Jingheng forced Huo Lankun to order the rest of the people to stay where they were, and he and the others took Huo Lankun and Zhengjue to leave and continue to Changchun Town.

In order to prevent the pursuers, the group of people did not dare to stop for the rest of the way except for drinking horses. At night, they happened to come across an empty yurt in the wilderness, so they stopped to rest and used some dry food.This place is less than a hundred miles away from Changchun Town, Guo Kai proposed to go all out and drive horses in the starry night, so as to arrive before sunset tomorrow.Everyone agrees, but Shao Jingheng is hesitant.

Under the pretext of checking on the prisoners, Shao Jingheng left the yurt.

"Shao Xianggong is worried about the officials?" After walking out, Guo Kai cut straight to the point.

Without denying it, Shao Jingheng kept his voice low, as if he was afraid that the people inside would hear: "It's normal for us to be in the army, to run around with injuries, and to be on the road day and night, but the officials have never suffered such hardships, and they are injured, I'm afraid he won't be able to hold on." live."

How could Guo Kai not know this?Besides, in the past half a day, he has seen Mu Yunqi's complexion repeatedly, and he seems to feel more and more pale, thinking that he is just trying to hold on.If you just rest on the spot, if you are overtaken by Huo Lankun's men, the consequences will be unpredictable.After thinking about it for a while, he suggested: "How about that, I'll take someone to look for it nearby. It's best if I can get a carriage. Otherwise, the official's family can take a rest while I come back."

It seems that this is the only way, Shao Jingheng agreed.

Huo Lankun took the elixir of Taoist Zhengjue, and he was drowsy all the way, without the power to resist, and he was being watched alone at the moment, so he was fine.After checking, Shao Jingheng turned around and wanted to go back, but he almost bumped into someone head-on—it was Zeng Wuhua.

"Sir, the official..." An ordinary person who is not surprised when things happen, is panicked at this moment: "It seems that it is not very good."

There was a "hum" in his head, and Shao Jingheng hurried back.

In the yurt, Mu Yunqi was still leaning on the same spot, his eyes were lightly closed, his face was pale and bloodless in the dim light of the fire.

Stepping forward and squatting down, Shao Jingheng touched his forehead with the back of his hand—it wasn't hot, on the contrary, it was actually a little cold!Ji took his hand, but found that even the palm of his hand was slightly cold.

"Jing Heng..." The eyelids of the drowsy man moved, and he murmured, "Leng..."

cold?how come!Before he could think about it, Shao Jingheng turned his head and ordered urgently: "Go get the thickest robe!" After a pause, "Bring that Taoist too!"

The robe and the righteous Taoist came at the same time.Wrapping the drowsy man in a heavy fur robe, Shao Jingheng ordered Zhengjue to come forward to check the pulse.

"This is caused by a sword wound." After a while, the Taoist stopped his hands and stroked his beard, "The Mingquan Sword has been sealed in the ice cave for thousands of years, and the cold air has condensed and turned into poison. No poor Taoist can solve this."

Grabbing him, Shao Jingheng's voice was stern: "Didn't you claim to be a real person and a half-immortal? Why can't you understand?"

The Taoist was helpless: "Therefore, the wound needs to be healed by medicine, but there is no medicine here."

"Medicine?" Shao Jingheng frowned, "What kind of medicine?"

"Red-ginseng!" After a word, the Taoist said slowly, "Only the heat of red ginseng can drive away the poisonous cold, and the longer the age of the ginseng, the better the medicinal effect." Looking at the drowsy man: "It seems that the cold poison It has penetrated into the lungs of the person, and the treatment must be timely!"

"Red ginseng..." After chewing on these two words, Shao Jingheng raised his eyes: "Send the order, prepare the horse immediately, I want to drive in the starry night!"

The moon is cold and windy, and the chill is biting.

Shao Jingheng swung his whip again and again, but he still felt his horse's steps were slow.Anxious, but helpless, at this moment, I know that the so-called more than enough heart but not enough strength is such suffering!

The body in his arms moved very lightly, but Shao Jingheng would not miss it.

"Ah Qi, Ah Qi!" Running all the way, dismounting slowly for the first time, Shao Jingheng lowered his head and called softly, full of apprehension.

"Jing... Heng..." The voice was intermittent, but fortunately it was clear.

"I'm here!" Withdrew his hand holding him, and lightly pressed his forehead against his cold cheek: "We'll be in Changchun Town soon, you'll be fine once you've taken the medicine!"

There was silence for a moment, thinking that he was drowsy again, Shao Jingheng was getting more and more anxious, and was about to use his strength to ride the horse, when he heard a slight voice coming from below, he hurriedly listened.

"In any case, it's not your... fault, don't be... harsh!"

His chest trembled, his throat tightened in dizziness, and his lungs and lungs seemed to be tightened by an invisible hand, but he opened his mouth silently.

Raising the whip and whipping the horse, the heat in the eye sockets turned cold in the wind, shattered into little ice crystals, pierced into the eyes, and the pain was heart-piercing.

After half a lifetime, I now realize that not all people who make mistakes have the opportunity to correct them.If it is not enough to make up for it, if it is left to wait, it will only be retribution.
