Crown Sword

When the Yan family came, instinctively, they glanced at the main building. There were indeed two people standing there, but they were far away, and the sightlines were poor when going up and down the slope. The lights were not bright, so they couldn't see clearly.Jianning County was as warm as spring, and he couldn't wear a crane cloak or a cold cloak at all. After taking off his outer robe, Yan Yi recognized the red dress and silver sword at a glance.

"Gongyangyue?" He has learned to manage the world with the Patriarch these years, and his temperament has become more and more calm. Although he is not full of surprise, he also looks vigilant.

Gongyangyue held the sword and handed it at will.

"Since that's the case, there's no need to talk about it." Yan Yi called Meng Wanzhi and went to the door.But Gongyangyue didn't give way, and stood under the gate with a sword in his right hand.

Although the Yan family didn't have any confrontation with them because they didn't use swords, they were in the martial arts world after all, and they often listened to gossip. Right now, I don't know what his attitude is. He raised his voice and shouted: "Don't say that you and I met by chance, we are like strangers, but you, Gong Yangyue, are shouted and beaten by everyone in the rivers and lakes. If I don't do anything, I have given enough face to the young leader and Patriarch Meng. Could it be that you want to take it away? "

Ram Yue still didn't move half a step.

"Since it's not, then my husband and I will leave here." After finishing speaking, it was only his acquiescence.Yan Yi walked away with a flick of his sleeves, and when he and Gong Yangyue were separated, he couldn't help turning his head, shaking his head at Cui Tanfeng, he was very puzzled: "Doctor Cui is clean, why should he be with such a person?" If it were him, At this moment, you should stand up, bluntly say that you are intimidating by the thieves, and draw a clear line.

But for a long time, Cui Tanfeng didn't say anything, Meng Wanzhi followed and gave her husband a push: "Let's go, don't look, I won't accept your favor."

Shuang Li tried to stop him several times, but she was afraid that it would be a waste of help. Seeing that the man was about to step out of the tower, she couldn't bear it. She took off the cloth bag hanging around her neck, flung it on the spot, and chased after him alone.Yan Yi didn't see her throwing the bag, thinking that this clever girl was going to play tricks again, so she kicked her stomach with her legs like a wishful move.

Shuang Li didn't dodge, but actually wanted to resist, she yelled against the wind of her legs: "If it's because of me, I apologize!"

The long sword in Gongyangyue's hand sang, and his face was not moved, showing deep disappointment.He tried his best to restrain himself, and took the first step cautiously, trying to negotiate peacefully, trying to break through the righteous way of martial arts in the calm and humble Yan family, and even trying to get rid of the inherent concepts superimposed on him, but the world It seems that he is not given a chance, if he does not hold the sword, he will hurt the people around him.

"You can beat me, scold me, or even stab me, can you borrow the jade bone ice soul fight... ah!" Shuang Li screamed, biting her lower lip, and closed her eyes tightly. head.

The long legs were kicked from the side, which could break the skull in severe cases or cause dizziness in light cases.

"Worriless!" It was Meng Wanzhi who called Yan Yi, and she rolled on the ground while pressing on the double carp, and the dodged attack landed on the short tree behind her, and the branch split instantly and fell outward.At this time, there was another sound of sword energy breaking through the air, and Meng Wanzhi, who was pulling Yan Yi away, suddenly turned around, only to see that the turf extending three feet behind where his couple had just stood was pushed away in one breath.

With a click, the gate tower broke in two and hit the ground.

The instigator was still standing there, not moving a step, not saying a word, but his eyes were as dark as a starless night, although not full of bloody cruelty, but just a glance would make people haunted by nightmares.Meng Wanzhi didn't know whether to be happy or angry, so she calmed down, pulled Shuang Li and said, "You didn't want to kill me just now, now you are clean, go back." She pushed, her eyes were firm, "Gongyangyue we It will never be saved, even if it can be saved, it will not be saved."

Before leaving, Yan Yi couldn't help but look at the swordsman in red, even more puzzled than Cui Tanfeng just now: "There are people like you who are willing to work hard?"

Shuang Li still wanted to chase, but was stopped by Gong Yangyue: "Enough!"

"Where is enough!" She used to be a coward, but now she can't get up, she can only hug her knees and cry, muttering over and over again: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry! It's my hands, I shouldn't hold back to her!" Shot, I'm sorry..."

"Silly girl." Gong Yangyue patted her on the head, let out a long sigh, and went to the main building.

It was the first time for Chao Chen to be so positive, without hesitation, he said "I'll go and see", and walked up the stairs.

"It's not that Meng Wanzhi escaped by luck, it's that you didn't intend to kill someone in the first place, right? Gongyangyue, why! You just stopped in front of the door, at least one of the two couldn't get away, no matter how cruel you are, maybe the two... ..." The light and shadow of the corridor lamp fell, Gong Yangyue stopped, and stood between the line between light and dark, and at this point, Chao Chen covered his mouth in panic, panicked——

What is this doing?He was actually persuading Gong Yangyue to kill someone!

It turns out that the evil thoughts in my heart are really just a moment!Gong Yangyue himself was poisoned, as long as he is alive, he doesn't have to be burdened by his enemy's good intentions, and he doesn't have to feel guilty for being upright and honest. As for other people... irrelevant people don't seem to be so difficult...

No!How can you think like this!

Chao Chen looked down at his hands, the moonlight was as pale as life.No, it's not!He backed up again and again, bumping into the railing made of bamboo, the meconopsis that Bai Xinghui had just casually inserted fell to the ground, and the fragile petals shattered to pieces. At that moment, he felt that his conscience was tormented, he immediately covered his ears, and kept shouting to himself——

No, it's not persuasion, I just don't understand, Gongyangyue is a devil, he can break through 48 villas in a row, and slaughter [-] demons from Li Shifang's family for the sake of sword competition. Sinners, after traitors and spies, are Qianqiu palace lunatics who can kill people for money regardless of innocence...

It's fearful, it's notorious...

Yes……

... If he is not the devil, then what is the point of insisting on it for so many years?

Chao Chen didn't dare to think that going against the established impression, the empty gap between reality and illusion, and the disintegration of layers of beliefs would tear him apart.

"Why?" Chao Chen asked these three words with great difficulty.

Gong Yangyue looked at his wrinkled face, and said stiffly: "You think too much, I just got interested suddenly, and I want to try it out, what it's like to be a good person. As you can see, how suffocating is it?" Qu, it's better to be a villain, just grab what you want, and you can't lose yourself if you lose, there is nothing more important than living."

Chao Chen said anxiously: "Gongyangyue, I'm not joking with you!" There was still half a sentence hidden in his heart, which was that the answer was very important to him.

"I'm not kidding you either."

The four eyes met, no one would let anyone go, and no one would leave.

Gong Yangyue laughed lowly, he suddenly had a little admiration for Chao Chen, it's not easy to be extremely evil, and it's not easy to be extremely good, and he can sacrifice himself for others in the face of life and death, he really should respect him, even if he doesn't agree with his way.I have to say that if this matter falls on Chao Chen, he will definitely give it up without hesitation, as long as this person is worth more than himself, as long as he thinks it is meaningful, even if he gets it first.

Sacrificing oneself is really a difficult choice. After all, all living beings in the world are mostly gentlemen of peace and villains in danger.

But he wouldn't boast, he would only scold in front of his face: "Chao Chen, you are a fool."

"Ram Moon!"

Gong Yangyue withdrew his sword, stepped into the darkness, and said indifferently: "I just think that only I can decide what kind of person I am."

----

Bai Xing flipped back onto the flagpole, and shouted in the direction where Gong Yangyue left: "Cousin, Southern Yunnan is our territory, I still don't believe it, this matter has to be done!"

As soon as the words fell, Meng Buqiu raised his hand and leaned his forearm on the pole: "Come down, I have something to say."

But in one sentence, the mighty young leader died down instantly, and followed the others away in desperation.Shuang Li snorted at the thunder and rain, picked up the bag that fell on the ground, dusted it off, found a big rock in his arms and sat down angrily.

Not long after, a sword was picked up, and it was held in the small wine glass in front of him, filled with honey.Qiao Min said dryly from a long distance away, "Sweet, don't cry."

Shuang Li didn't answer, thinking: I'm still crying, I'm not a crybaby.

Qiao Min was stubborn, and stubbornly pushed the contents of the cup forward. If he hadn't held his hands steady, he would have knocked over the person's chin. Shuang Li had no choice but to drink it down in one gulp. Suddenly, he realized that his accent was different. , not crying, but suffering.

But how did he know that after tasting the sweetness, he would not be able to bear the bitterness even more, it would be better to soak in the bitter wine all the time - for the current Lao Yue, the biggest killing move is not the malice of the world, but the kindness of the world.

Shuang Li's eyes turned red, poking her heart and saying, "But my heart is suffering, Seventeen."

"I understand." Qiao Min's voice was hoarse, afraid that she might not hear clearly, he took the initiative to move a few inches like a snail, "I have people too, and I really want to give up my life for people."

"In Goguryeo?"

Qiao Min's eyes flickered: "He is waiting for me to go back, and I will definitely do it."

"Do what?"

"save him."

----

Cui Tanfeng went to Gongyangyue to discuss his next plan, but he couldn't find anyone, but he saw Chao Chen standing in a daze on the porch, staring blankly at Mu Fengduo at the corner of the eaves.

"Things are still turning around."

Cui Tanfeng put one knee on the ground, picked up the remaining flowers on the ground, grabbed the soil, and planted the rhizomes back in the crevices under the steps.He had never experienced the Jinyang Incident, and Shuangli and Qiao Min's recounting was incomplete, so he misunderstood Chao Chen's expression, saying it was disappointment, and comforted him instead.

Gongyangyue has a strange charm. Those who hate him in the world hate him to death, but getting along with him is nothing more than heart-to-heart.

Chao Chen immediately cheered up as if he had retrieved his three souls and seven souls: "What's the turning point?"

Cui Tanfeng said in a deep voice: "Although I have never dealt with the illness of the Patriarch of the Yan family, but I think that those who need to use the jade bone and ice soul to fight for medicine must be acutely ill, and the wind and heat are on the surface, and they often relapse. Take it as soon as you get it. Yes. Can Mr. Chao understand?"

"You mean, the Patriarch of the Yan family is also in the convoy?" Chao Chen pondered carefully, the couple walked so hard, apart from their family background, they probably had some support.Even if Yan Chuihong's body is rotten, he is still a first-class master who has been famous for decades. Even if Gongyangyue is a martial arts star who has descended to earth for only [-] years, it may be better than others for a lifetime.

If this is the case, the masters of the world might as well kill themselves.

"That's right," Cui Tanfeng nodded and said, "Yan Chuihong has a very good reputation and a mediocre personality. I have been lucky enough to meet him twice, and he has no pretensions. He is especially easy to talk to. Maybe we can work hard on him."

"But you said that you can use it immediately, will it be already..." Chao Chen hesitated.

Cui Tanfeng shook his head: "There is a saying in "Plain Questions" that medicines can be divided into severe poisons, normal poisons, small poisons, and non-toxic. This jade bone ice soul fight is the medicine for tigers and wolves when taken orally. Two or thirty years earlier, Patriarch Yan is a master of martial arts, so it’s okay to swallow it raw, but he is over sixty years old and has heart failure, so he dare not decoct it casually. It came the day before yesterday."

"At midnight tonight, it will be three days." Chao Chen's heart skipped a beat, and he hurriedly asked, "If that's the case, Doctor Cui, can you save the two of them?"

Cui Tanfeng clasped his hands together: "Yes! But time is running out, we can't let them return to Linchuan, they must stay here."

Chao Chen paced back and forth, finally made up his mind, and said, "I'll come up with an idea, and if it works, I'll have to trouble Dr. Cui after that." After speaking, he hurried down the slope, but he just turned a corner and went down to the bottom of the stone ridge , I had mixed feelings in my heart, so I couldn't help but say something more, "I hope you will keep the secret, and don't tell anyone, including Gongyangyue."

"how do you want to do it?"

The questions were scattered in the empty mountain depression, and the thin blue shadow gradually drifted away without looking back.

In fact, it is very simple to get Yan Chuihong's attention, all he needs is one thing, this person loves chess all his life, talks with hands day and night, there is no more effective excuse than black and white chess pieces.Chao Chen found Meng Buqiu first, borrowed chess from him, and then asked in detail the ways to get out of the mountain and to Zangcang County.

The members of the Yan family did not live in the village, and with Yan Chuihong accompanying them, there must be many people, they could only be the nearby county towns, villages and inns.It was inconvenient for him to ask directly, but fortunately he could infer from the direction Yan Yi and Meng Wanzhi came from, that there was only one old post there, which was in line with the habit of deceiving people.

Picking up sticks and using soil to make a map, Chao Chen sorted out several roads, found the necessary point where they meet, carried the chess table on his back, held a torch, and left quietly.After midnight, the stars are gone, the moon is over, and there will be rain, but he dare not stop, with Yan Yi and Meng Wanzhi's caution, after sunrise and before the eclipse, they will definitely set off, and there is not much time for him.

He needs to use jade to set up a game to lure Yan Chuihong into the game.

After the third watch, the dark clouds covered tightly, and the forest was dull.Chao Chen put down the chess table, supported the tree and gasped for a few breaths, then quickly unloaded the baskets in the bag, and laid out the chess pieces one by one.In the middle of the round, it was raining and the wind was blowing from the mountains. He took off his coat to cover himself, and stood in the middle of the road wiping the water off his face with one hand.

It rained for a full hour in winter. When the bright light came from the mountain, Chao Chen even felt a little dazzling. He held the wet clothes in one hand and blocked the light with the other, and couldn't help but smile——

How crazy!

After staying with Ramyue for a long time, he will become a lunatic sooner or later.

The singing of birds in the early morning is more deceptive than the lullaby of the quiet night. He just wants to fall asleep on the mountain meadow after the rain, but now he has something to do, so he can only hold his tired eyelids and finish the work. Play chess.

Horseshoes treading water, rutted bones, the Yan family team came slowly from behind the ravine.

"I'm going to be bold, stop the way and ask about chess, and I want to ask Patriarch Yan for advice."

The carriages and horses stopped, the passers-by looked at each other, one of them got off his horse and reported back, while the other servant yelled and asked: "Where is the nerd who dares to block the carriage of Yan's family? The owner is not here, if you go quickly, you won't care! "

Chao Chen knelt and sat on the spot, motionless as a mountain.

Yan Yi rode his horse forward from behind, and reined in less than a foot away from the chess table. His black eyebrows were slightly frowned, and he looked down at the man whose blue shirt was completely wet and clasped his hands. He was shivering from the cold but still didn't take a step back: "You are...you are the one from last night..." Recognizing the person, Yan Yi immediately put his hands on the double rings and looked around vigilantly.

"Only me." Chao Chen said softly.

Yan Yi waved him away: "There is no one you want to see here!"

Chao Chen shook his head, and repeated what he said just now: "I heard that the Patriarch extensively searched Zhenlong's remnants, and loves to solve chess. He is especially good at resolving life and death, and clothing Tesuji. This game in my hand has reached the middle game, and the white pieces are like dragons." Tiger, the momentum is like a broken bamboo. Heizi retreats again and again, and his breath will be exhausted. I asked everyone, and everyone said that Heizi must be defeated, but I don't think so. Within three steps, there is still a clever way. Be bold, block the way and ask each other, and you will be defeated. Patriarch Yan please advise!"
