Crown Sword

"Probably a hundred years ago. At that time, the Jin Dynasty had not yet lost its power, and a most powerful hero named Yu Linzhou appeared in the martial arts. It is said that this person was born in the market, and was poor in his early years. He worked as a handyman in various sects. But because of the genius of the sky, by chance, he learned a hundred martial arts, and turned all the hundreds into one, and realized the peerless martial arts."

"After becoming famous, Yu Linzhou collected all kinds of martial arts classics, buried them with him after his death, and hid them in Long Kundou's tomb, along with the 'Jiangqi'."

"'General Flag'? What is that?" Yan Ning asked.

Shuang Li scratched his head: "Let me think about how to explain it. Well, you can understand it as an organizational idea. There are omniscient intelligence networks, strategic think tanks, invincible killing knives, and peerless knives." The shadow guard, and all of this is based on the treasures and secret books he collected."

Yan Ning opened his eyes wide: "Isn't it enough for this martial arts master to be alone in the rivers and lakes, and he also wants to compete in the world?"

"Of course not, he's a Han. At that time, the clan's clan was traveling south and was hunted down. Among them were many Jianghu assassins with high martial arts skills. I think he originally designed it for the Sima family, but for some reason, he stayed in Longkun. In the tomb." Shuang Li picked the calluses on his fingers and sighed, "Later, his descendants defected to Di Qin, Fu insisted on 'Jiang Qi' and cultivated the famous 'Six-Star General', who almost wiped out the South. The imperial court. I think, if this great hero Yu is alive in the sky, he might come back to life in the coffin!"

Yan Ning thought for a while, then covered his mouth: "Could it be that they are going to find Long Kundou's tomb?"

"It's possible, but besides the Yu family, who in this world knows where Long Kundou's tomb is?" Shuang Li glanced at it, and said twice, "Just those crooked melons and cracked dates, what do you think they look like?"

Listening to her burying someone, Yan Ning couldn't help laughing.

Shuang Li suddenly slapped his thigh, and retorted: "No, someone still knows about it. A few years ago, the Sima family conferred a Dongwu Lord in Yingchuan Nayuntai. It is said that he was born out of thin air, and there is a saying that he once obtained the true biography of Yu Linzhou, and the rumor of the pure heart has been spread since then, but I have never heard that Dongwu Lord has come to the Western Regions!"

Yan Ning laughed at her confusion: "Isn't there a word in your Central Plains called 'Huaibi Qicrime'? Even if the truth is so, he will not tell others."

After thinking about it, Shuang Li thought it made sense, and pulled Yan Ning to continue talking.

At this time, Yue Mo was talking louder, the big man in purple who was sharpening his knife alone looked up, Yan Ning subconsciously turned his head to meet him, and bent his eyebrows and eyes.Yasha patted the swollen water bag on his waist, and kindly asked her if she was thirsty after talking so much, Yan Ning was careless, and pointed to his own bag, indicating that there was still more.

In contrast, Shuang Li's careful thinking was a little bit more.She hurriedly pressed Yan Ning's hand: "You try to talk to him, he owes you a favor, and he will definitely say it."

"This..." Yan Ning didn't move.

Shuang Li thought she didn't believe her, so she pushed her shoulders: "Do you know what tenderness is? Don't you want to know where they are going and what they are going to do?"

Speaking of this, Yan Ning is not easy to refuse. Shuang Li is telling the truth, he is not traveling in the desert now, the dog boss said it nicely, who knows if he will turn his face and deny people, not to mention, there are more than a dozen of them. A man or woman who is waiting to be rescued cannot accept everything just because the enemy suddenly makes good promises.

Yan Ning sat over and chatted with Yasha casually.

It's a pity that she can count the people she has met since she was a child, with two hands, those of Shuang Li who play the side drum, are clever, she can't at all, and she can't speak at all, they are really just commonplace.

Unable to come up with an idea, Shuang Li scratched his head and scratched his head in anxiety, looking for an opportunity to call him back, ordering him to come and tell him to go.If you can't speak, then you can memorize the words, and finally you can pick out a few words between your teeth.

"I just asked him that he said he was going to cross the mountains and go north, as if he was going to the vast sea." Yan Ning confessed honestly, "He, he also told me not to worry, he would not kill us, even if he reached that step in the end, he would Find a way to save me and repay my kindness."

"Hey, this big guy looks quite decent," Shuang Li boldly put his arms on Yan Ning's shoulders, raised his chin, "Do you know about Han Hai?"

Yan Ning shook his head and put on a dumbfounded look.

Shuang Li pursed her lips in disgust: "Aren't you from the Western Regions?"

Yan Ning pointed to the back: "Why don't I ask again."

Shuang Li caught her back and pressed her to the ground. The two of them leaned head to head, shoulder to shoulder, and fell asleep with their eyes closed: "You're stupid. If you run around twice, everyone will know there's a ghost."

"I'm sorry." Yan Ning felt a little guilty.

Seeing how pitiful she was, Shuang Li thought that he had never cared about the bickering with Lao Yue, and that talking to the girl might be a bit too much, so he pinched her face and told her to sleep at ease: "I can't even ask." .When you were talking to that big stupid guy just now, although the old dog saw it, he turned his eyes and closed his eyes. Do you know why? He is sure that this man can keep a secret, so he is so relieved. Don't look at it. That flower girl is inseparable from the old dog, I'm afraid this Yasha is the real confidant."

In the dead of night, only the faint sound of wind and the crackling of firewood are left in the desert.The old dog was sitting on a piece of dead wood and sleeping quietly, with the flower pipa under his feet.Hu'ersheng stood beside the group of children with his hands on the back of his head, while Yasha held a long knife and snorted with his arms folded.

No one dared to leave. The last one who sneaked away almost had his ankle broken.

Without bedding, people can only lie on the sand, take off their coats and put them on their bodies.

"I'm cold." Mingming lived in the snow mountain for several years, but Yan Ning just felt that she couldn't get warm no matter what, that kind of cold didn't freeze her bones, but from the bottom of her heart, she could only shrink into a small ball.

Shuang Li stretched out her hand, "Don't be afraid, hold my hand."

After deviating from the commercial road, it is almost deserted. Perhaps because of the lack of popularity, when you look up, the sky is full of stars, and it has more profundity and magnificence that does not fall into the world.

Shuang Li closed her eyes and muttered to herself: "My brother, he will definitely come to save me, he is big... big..."

Yan Ning followed suit and asked, "Are you a great hero?"

Shuang Li didn't say a word, thinking to himself: Whether it's a hero or a devil, you have to be smarter, otherwise, if the vast Shahai and others arrive, I'm afraid I'll pass the first seven.You have to be smarter yourself. Leaving marks in the desert is a gamble on luck, but if you find the right way to play tricks, as long as the sky doesn't kill you, your chances will always be better.

After getting up after sunrise, Shuang Li gradually discovered that the dog boss and the others seldom stopped beside Populus euphratica.

They found a chance to ask Yan Ning to tell the truth, and only then did they know that poisonous insects often grow in those desert green plants. Before they came, they asked the herdsmen to inquire, and they said that the poison was so poisonous that some of them could cause blindness with just one bite.

Because Yan Ning was treated favorably, Shuang Li tried to get her to ask Yasha to make two walking sticks on the grounds of her knee pain, so as to relieve her legs from walking on the sandy ground.She was weak and weak, even the dog boss didn't stop her, after all, if she couldn't walk, she would have to fight with coolies, which would be too much effort.

To make a cane, you can only use Populus euphratica. The dog boss has a lot of eyes and doesn't allow others to approach, so Shuang Li uses Yan Ning's hand to leave a mark, and repeatedly warns not to leave it on the huge Populus euphratica, which is too conspicuous. Find an upward-growing salix and tie knots on the branches.

Salix clumps are so fluffy that it’s hard to tell them apart at a glance. Old dogs are in a hurry and don’t know how to look carefully, but people looking for a way will search carefully.

----

Where the sand is deep, it is difficult for a horse to move, so you can only lead a camel.

Standing under the scorching sun, Gong Yangyue listened to Fan Xi's report: "Young Master, as expected, in a field of willows in front, we found a grass-knot ring."

The searchers dared not move rashly, and led Gongyangyue and Fanxi forward to check.After discussing that day, the two of them acted as pioneers and led their elites to catch up quickly, while Ying Wuxin, Chao Chen, Qiao Min and others stayed in Lutangzhai together with Mr. Du.

"It seems that they turned to the north here." A nest of willows stretched in all directions, and the location of the rings indicated the direction of travel. Fanxi relied on the sun to determine, "According to the fragments of the wagon they picked up, the rest of their horses There should not be many camels, and people can only rely on people to carry supplies, and the footsteps will be much slower. It should have just passed Shanshan, and Bogda Mountain will be after that.”

It was said that Gong Yangyue was dragging the camel, eager to go, and wanted to cross the willow bush.

Fanxi pulled the person back: "Go this way, be careful of bugs."

As soon as she finished speaking, the guide in the search team was tricked and bitten by a tick in the blade of grass.The toxicity developed quickly, and although the medication was timely, there was still no delay, so Fanxi ordered a few and sent them back to see a doctor, while passing a message to those waiting in the Absurd Room.

Right now, there are only two people left with them.

When the arrangements are in place, the Ram Moon has come to the fore.

When crossing the sand mountain, stepping on the quicksand, people slide down the slope in an instant, so fast that people can't catch their shadows.Fanxi chased him, but he didn't have time to catch him, so he could only turn around to get the rope from the camel.

Gong Yangyue drew his sword and plunged into the sand, but couldn't bear the force. Just when the wind came, the flying sand was blown away, revealing a broken cane. He pulled him back, but at least he slowed down a bit. When he paused in the air for a moment, Fan Xi threw down the rope in time.

"The desert is different from other places. Don't just walk on the leeward side. Although the wind is blinding, the sand is compacted and does not sink your feet, and there are fewer cases of quicksand." After pulling people up, Fanxi stared at the quicksand pit , saying, "You have saved your life."

Ram Yue raised his hand, revealing a five-color bracelet.

Fanxi recognized: "Longevity thread?"

……

Two days after Shuang Li was rescued by Fan Xi, it was the Dragon Boat Festival.Fanxi is not a fastidious person, and Du Mengjin always forgets things, and he didn't prepare anything at all during the meal, but when he came back at night, the little girl was clamoring for rice dumplings, and she even started to move her hands. .

Qiao Min didn't live in the festival of the Central Plains, so he went to bed early, while Chao Chen sat alone in the gazebo and weaved long-lived threads with the five-color silk thread he had brought.

"What is this?" Gong Yangyue came from nowhere and stood behind him.

Chao Chen was a little surprised: "You don't know? Five-color silk is worn on the arms of the Dragon Boat Festival, which can ward off evil spirits and prevent all kinds of diseases. Didn't your mother do it for you when you were young?" After finishing speaking, he suddenly remembered the rumors in the world that Gong Yangyue's mother died young, Hearing that he was killed by his father, he softened his heart a little, and gave him the silk thread beside him, "I'll teach you."

Gong Yangyue raised her eyebrows and took it.

Chao Chen was probably addicted to her husband, and while knitting, she babbled about old Jiangnan customs. It was rare that Gong Yangyue didn't talk to him, and sat quietly by the side.But his workmanship is really not good, not to mention the weird weave, it is loose and loose when touched, so he stretched out his hand, snatched Chao Chen's weave, and put it on his hand: "Give it to me."

"Ram Yue, you have to show some face!"

When Chao Chen went to snatch it, Gong Yangyue not only refused to give it, but also pulled out his sword and broke the remaining silk thread, leaving such an orphan, very satisfied.

"You... When did I say I'll see you off?" Chao Chen's face turned red and pale with anger.

Gong Yangyue didn't care at all, Shi Shiran left: "I know you are thin-skinned, so I told you."

……

The Dragon Boat Festival has passed, but the longevity thread has not been picked off.Gong Yangyue raised her arms to face the sunlight, and the silk rope rubbed on the fracture, leaving a small gap.

He thought, maybe in the future he can be nicer to Chao Chen.

----

Leaving the Kumtag Desert, a small oasis appeared. The dog boss did not stop. With years of intuition, he avoided Shanshan, did not make supplies, and even abandoned most of the luggage and went directly into the mountain. Therefore, their speed Much faster than before.

This made Shuang Li very anxious.

Even pretending and acting, I tried all the ways I could think of, but I still couldn't delay the schedule.Not only that, but the strange behavior over and over again was enough to arouse the suspicion of the old dog, and she dared not risk her life.

On the evening of the second day after entering the mountain, the dog boss changed his mind and gave up his plan to cross the eastern foot of Tiandong from Qijiaojing, and instead crossed the Qianren snow mountain. Hua Pipa contradicted him and had a big fight with him.

The dog boss didn't care at all, no matter who persuaded him, he wouldn't look back.

When Shuang Li realized something was wrong, she wanted to leave a mark, but the dog boss's fanatical gaze never left her side again, to be precise, it was Yan Ning who never left her side.

If you stare too closely, you have no chance.

In the center of the mountains is an alpine meadow, in which there is a lake, like a pearl.Further up, there is a snow-capped sea, and the mountain peaks that cut straight into the sea.

There is a forest behind the lake. The trees are thin and tall, dense and airtight. When the weather is fine, the sun that falls is like a sword piercing obliquely.

The dog boss pointed to an open space and said, "This is it."

Yasha and Hu Ersheng took the shovel and shovel and began to dig the soil under their feet.

Could this be their destination?Shuang Li took the opportunity to look around, but apart from facing the main peak of Bogda, there was nothing unusual about it.

Soon, a hole measuring one foot square appeared on the ground.The shovel hit the rocks on the ground, and there was a crisp sound of gold and stones. Yasha dropped the tool and jumped down. He pushed the ground and pushed the soil away with his bare hands, revealing a huge stone plate engraved with patterns.The dog boss glanced down and looked back at the boys and girls who were huddled together.

At first, I suspected that the Four Wicked Ones had a convulsion in their brains and thought of Shuang Li who led people from Dunhuang to climb the snow-capped mountains, but suddenly realized that for those helpless children, their journey ended here——

It was a stone platform-shaped altar!

"come over!"

The dog boss beckoned, and Hu Ersheng beckoned a boy and walked over.People's intuition has always been sharp, whether it is the boy, or the rest of the nine women and eight men, as if they understood life and death in an instant, they broke out the most fierce resistance in history, and all kinds of abuse suddenly broke out.

To resist is also to die, and not to resist is also to die. This is probably the greatest courage in life.

The boy bit the fox and gave birth, and Sa Yazi jumped off the altar without looking back.But he couldn't run the dog boss and was blocked back.

The old dog made a silence gesture: "Shh, shouting when you worship the mountain gate will disturb the gods." After speaking, he lifted the man's collar and threw it back, and the fox on the altar was born at the same time. Pulling out the short sword, he pierced the child's heart directly from the back.
