Looking to the Thirteen Rivers

Ji Wanshu snorted coldly, and was about to fly up to the second floor to arrest people: "I don't know what's good or bad, I have to deal with him!"

Lu Huaiwei hurriedly stopped her and warned: "Senior sister, don't worry! You will only make him feel that Junior Sister is secretly complaining if you are so angry and go to accuse someone, which will make him hate Junior Sister even more!"

Ji Wanshu was not fighting for Yin Qiu's injustice, but just couldn't understand Meng Jing's behavior, and said angrily: "Then what do you think? Our Yunhua has always been well-behaved, and he is already a secret agent before he gets started. How can such a person be qualified to join my Yunhua? In my opinion, it is better to kick him out as soon as possible, so as not to leave a hidden danger."

Lu Huaiwei sighed: "In the final analysis, it's all the fault of Ziwei's teaching... But he is still young, and it is reasonable to discriminate between right and wrong. As long as he is guided and patiently raised, he will learn well in time. What's more, since his parents will He has been entrusted to us, so we can't just sit idly by. Besides, people have already been brought back, so how can they be driven out easily? If it spreads outside, it will be said that our Yunhua Palace is not good, and even a baby can't be tolerated. "

Ji Wanshu has a fiery temper and goes straight to the point. Naturally, he is not as considerate as Lu Huaiwei, but he feels that she is not unreasonable, so he said coldly: "Since you are so understanding and reasonable, then you may as well take him. I am too lazy to care about it." gone."

Lu Huaiwei smiled, looked at Man Jiangxue and said: "Senior Sister's words are on point. I think it will be difficult for the child to get rid of his prejudice against Junior Sister in a short time. Why don't you just let me take care of him, and I will still be around." It will be a while before I can go back to the palace, and it happens to take care of the child's illness, so the uncle will take the younger sister back first, what do you think?"

She is right, besides, the Ziwei Cult is staring at Yin Qiu, a Meng Jing does not matter, if one day the Ziwei Cult sneaks into Qingluo City, which is not good for Yin Qiu, then it will be impossible to guard against, and Yin Qiu can be brought back to Yunhua Palace sooner. is the top priority.

Man Jiangxue adopted Lu Huaiwei's suggestion, ordered his disciples to buy a new pair of shoes for Yin Qiu, and then returned to the room with breakfast.

"Are you leaving today?" Yin Qiu asked while eating porridge, holding the bowl and chopsticks.

"Well," Man Jiangxue packed up the things to bring, "You eat slowly, there is no rush."

"Meng Jing is also with us?" Yin Qiu choked a little, and swallowed his saliva.

"He won't leave," Man Jiangxue said, "he has to stay to recuperate."

"That's right," Yin Qiu said, "he's still sick, I'm afraid the journey will be very hard."

"Not necessarily," Man Jiangxue glanced at her, "If you have the strength to hit someone, you should also have the strength to travel."

Yin Qiu was slightly stunned, and looked at Man Jiangxue without knowing why, but Man Jiangxue stopped there.

But no matter what, Yin Qiu couldn't help but feel a little elated that there were only the two of them as companions when he went back this time. After a few big mouthfuls of food, he went to help Man Jiangxue.

"Don't worry about it, go play," Man Jiangxue didn't want her help, "I'll do it."

Yin Qiu sat back on the stool, swayed his legs left and right in mid-air, and said, "How long will it take?"

"With your current state, you can go faster on the road," Man Jiangxue said, "at most five or six days."

Yin Qiu said "Oh".

Man Jiangxue suddenly looked back at her: "Go to Yunhua Palace, if someone bullies you, remember to tell me in time."

Hearing this, Yin Qiu thought of the sentence she had just commented on Meng Jing, and guessed in her heart that Man Jiangxue must know that she was embarrassed by Meng Jing.

Yin Qiu felt warm in his heart, and didn't ask how she knew, but just agreed, and then asked: "Will someone in Yunhua Palace also bully me?"

Man Jiangxue said: "The inside of the palace is no better than the outside. There won't be any on the surface, but you can't know in the dark. Where there are people, there will be conflicts and conflicts. There may be people who don't like you and exclude you, but there will also be people who are interested in you." Congeniality, close relationship, the latter is naturally good, but if you meet the former, don't keep it in your heart, because if you don't let me know, I can't protect you."

Yin Qiu was taken aback when he heard that, and said, "Master...will you protect me?"

Man Jiangxue said, "Of course."

Yin Qiu jumped off the stool, rushed over to hug Man Jiangxue, looked up at her and said, "Uncle Master can protect many people, right?"

Man Jiangxue looked at her with downcast eyes: "What?"

Yin Qiu laughed and asked, "Is there anyone to protect the uncle?"

Man Jiangxue was taken aback by her question, and then said: "Uncle Master doesn't need it."

"Need," Yin Qiu said seriously, "When I grow up and learn Kung Fu well, I will repay you and protect you."

Man Jiangxue's eyes reflected Yin Qiu's reflection, as if falling into a snowflake, with a soft light.

"I don't need you to repay anything," Man Jiangxue said, "You grow up safely, that's what I want to see the most."

Yin Qiu buried his head in Man Jiangxue's arms, and rubbed against her a few times like a puppy.

·

"Aren't senior sister leaving?" Lu Huaiwei asked Ji Wanshu at the gate of the station.

"I still have something to do." Ji Wanshu said.

Yin Qiu was brought onto the horse by Man Jiangxue, and sat in her arms. Man Jiangxue held the rein, turned his head to look at the two people below, and said, "Don't make trouble."

Her words were hitting Ji Wanshu. This time, Ji Wanshu was supposed to go back to Yunhua Palace together, but since she wanted to stay, she must be going to find Wen Chaoyu. There has never been a formal conversation, one has searched hard, and the other has tried every means to hide, Ji Wanshu is stubborn, and will never give up until he finds out, and no one can persuade him.

"Disciple understands," Ji Wanshu said respectfully, "Master, please be careful."

"Junior sister, dress warmly," Lu Huaiwei stuffed a bag of food for Yin Qiu, "I'm going back soon, and I'll see how you've learned in the palace."

Yin Qiu took the things, thanked her with a smile, looked up, saw Meng Jing coming down from the second floor, glanced at her from a distance, turned around and walked away.

Many disciples came to see him off one after another, and after everyone said a few words, Man Jiangxue stretched the reins, beat the horse and left.

As soon as the figures of the two disappeared at the gate of Qingluo City, a group of figures dressed as rangers walked out from the lively market.

"What are the guardians going to do?" A subordinate asked the woman beside him.

Wen Zhaoyu was still dressed in the same way for thousands of years, holding the handle of the knife and said: "Follow, we are not enough to send up the snow to fill the gaps between our teeth. First follow secretly, don't shoot rashly."

"I don't think the thing the leader is looking for is on that girl," said the subordinate. "What's the use of taking her back?"

"Idiot," Wen Zhaoyu said, looking at the two figures drifting away from the city, "Shen Mandong has disappeared from the world for ten years for no reason, and the things are naturally in her hands. Take her daughter back and release the news. I don't believe that she can let her own flesh and blood fall into the hands of the enemy for something that is of no use to her."

The subordinate paused, and then asked: "What if Shen Mandong is already dead?"

"If she dies, she dies," Wen Chaoyu said nonchalantly, "If she really dies, her child can't be handed over to Yunhua Palace. Our leader is so pitiful that he has no one to accompany him all his life. It's hard to accept a righteous brother and fall in love with her." The person you shouldn't love lost his life, and didn't get any benefits, so it's not too much to take a niece back to support her?"

That subordinate didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "The upper and lower sides of the Ruyi Gate are wiped out... Is there no benefit at all?"

Wen Chaoyu laughed loudly, and then his face collapsed again: "This can be said in front of me, if the leader hears it, your skin can only be used to sew a leather doll."

The subordinate clapped his hands and said, "But Dharma protector, now is a good time. Your precious apprentice stays in the city. It will save trouble if she doesn't make trouble. You still have to find a way to snatch him away."

"Can I still know this?" Wen Zhaoyu pondered, "Since the attack cannot be done by force, then we have no choice but to outwit it."

The subordinate was about to ask how to get out of the way, but Wen Zhaoyu's expression suddenly changed, and he ran away without saying a word, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

A group of subordinates looked at each other and looked around, only to realize that a woman in Tsing Yi with an expressionless face came from the crowd and was heading in their direction.

"Hey! Isn't that the apprentice of the guardian?"

"See, see, don't shout!"

"The protectors are gone, let's run too!"

The group of people panicked and hurriedly disappeared, climbed over the wall and left the place, looking for Wen Zhaoyu.

Three days later, Man Jiangxue and Yin Qiu went to a forest along the river, tied up their horses to fetch water.

Since Yin Qiu's health is much better than at the beginning, Man Jiangxue also walked faster on this journey. He didn't take the mountain road on the way, and almost all passed the official road. At first, he could meet tea shops and wineries. , but after walking for a long time, he entered a deep mountain with few pedestrians, so he could only make do with drinking some cold river water.

After several days of bumping on the horse's back, Yin Qiu's whole body was sore, and after getting off the horse, he leaned on Man Jiangxue's body and dozed off.

Man Jiangxue fed her some cakes, then fed her saliva, looked at the sky and said, "Fortunately, there hasn't been snow these few days, so it's not too cold. Let's find a place to sleep for the night first, tomorrow morning Let's go."

Yin Qiu naturally let her arrange, nodded and did not speak.

"Tired?" Man Jiangxue lifted the brocade robe and wrapped Yin Qiu in her arms.

"The nose is a bit blocked," Yin Qiu took a deep breath, "the stomach also hurts, it's uncomfortable."

"Stomach pain?" Man Jiangxue frowned, "Why does the stomach hurt?"

Yin Qiu wanted to say that the river water was too cold and it was uncomfortable to drink, but he didn't want Man Jiangxue to think she was delicate, so he shook his head and swallowed the words.

Although she didn't say it, Man Jiangxue also guessed: "Maybe the water is too cold, your stomach can't stand it, are you still thirsty?"

Yin Qiu licked his dry lips and said "Mmm".

There is no dry firewood in this snowy field, and there is no way to make a fire. Even if there is a fire, there is nothing to boil water. Man Jiangxue thought for a while and said, "I feed you?"

Yin Qiu didn't understand what she meant: "How are you?"

Man Jiangxue took a sip of water, didn't swallow it, and warmed her mouth, and then motioned to Yin Qiu to let her open her mouth.

Yin Qiu was stunned: "Are you going to feed me with your mouth..."

Man Jiangxue made a guttural sound, her face was calm, and she leaned towards Yin Qiu with her head buried.

Seeing that beautiful face approaching, Yin Qiu was a little at a loss for a moment, but she rarely drank water these days, and her mouth was already parched from thirst, so she couldn't care about so much now, and slowly opened her mouth, He walked over to Man Jiangxue.

The two were very close, and there was a gap between their lips, so they didn't touch each other. The warm water flowed down Yin Qiu's lips and teeth into his throat, spreading a sense of moisturization.

Man Jiangxue fed her tirelessly for a while, until Yin Qiu waved her hand, and she began to drink water by herself again.

Yin Qiu's heart was beating like a drum, and his face was hot, but Man Jiangxue's face was calm, as if nothing had happened.

With the sweetness still remaining in his mouth, Yin Qiu silently huddled in Man Jiangxue's arms, listening to the sound of her sipping food, replaying the scene of Man Jiangxue feeding her water over and over again in his mind.

At this moment, Yin Qiu couldn't help thinking that she had seen this kind of thing in the brothel when she was still in the brothel. Some guests would feed the girls with their mouths, and the girls would tease the guests like this, but they were all serious. Lips touching lips, cheeks touching cheeks, unlike her and Man Jiangxue who didn't touch at all.

The scenes he had witnessed before alternated with the face of Man Jiangxue who was close at hand. Yin Qiu thought for a while, and suddenly came back to his senses, feeling annoyed immediately.

How could she be thinking about these things?How can you compare Man Jiangxue with those people who are having fun in brothels?

Yin Qiu secretly scolded himself for being ignorant, and shook his head violently, trying to get rid of those distracting thoughts that shouldn't be there.

"What's wrong?" Man Jiangxue's voice sounded above his head.

Yin Qiu was taken aback, and hurriedly replied, "It's nothing..."

The two fell silent again. Yin Qiu's mood was still not calm, and he raised his eyes carefully to look at Man Jiangxue, and found that her eyes were a little distorted. I don't know where she was looking. A look of incomprehension.

It seems to be in a daze, and it seems to be thinking about something.

"When I was young, my mother often fed me water like this." Man Jiangxue said suddenly.

"Uncle's mother?" Yin Qiu looked at her intently.

"Well," Man Jiangxue said, "Before entering Yunhua Palace, it was just the two of us who lived together."

"What about after that?" Yin Qiu asked.

"She's dead." Man Jiangxue said.

Yin Qiu was stunned, and when he looked at Man Jiangxue, there was a bit of sympathy in his eyes: "How could this be...?"

"It's normal, everyone will die, but sooner or later..." Man Jiangxue stopped abruptly when she said this.

She was actually talking to an immature child about the past that she had never told anyone?

Man Jiangxue packed the water bag and dry food, hugged Yin Qiu and got up: "Don't rest, go ahead and see if there is a cave or something."

Seeing that she didn't say anything further, Yin Qiu didn't ask any more questions. The two got on the horse together and walked forward again.

It was getting dark soon, and the forest was dark, unable to find a suitable foothold, Man Jiangxue picked a small hillside leeward, cut down some branches and piled up a barrier against the cold wind, and the two sat leaning against the tree trunk. When he was about to fall asleep, he suddenly heard a shout coming from not far away.

"Help!"

"Come on, someone! Is there anyone!"

"Murder! Murder!"

……

Yin Qiu was already too sleepy to keep his eyes open, but when he heard the battle, he woke up. Man Jiangxue took off the dagger and shook it, pulled out the Ningshuang sword, and took Yin Qiu into the dark forest to watch.

Soon, I saw a few figures fleeing from the forest in front. The cries sounded like a group of young men and women, with cold sword lights flashing behind them, like wild wolves dormant in the dark, approaching them. It was with a team of killers.

"What should I do?" Yin Qiu tried his best to identify the surrounding scenery.

"Don't move here, I'll go and have a look." Man Jiangxue hid her behind a tree, and flew forward with her sword.

The black shadows, like ghosts, came out of the forest, and pointed their long swords straight at the heads of the group of men and women. A silver-white sword light struck at the right time, with a sound of "bang!", the two sides collided, and a strong explosion erupted The air waves, the startled snow on the treetops rustled down.

Those few men and women were still in shock, seeing Man Jiangxue falling from the sky, they couldn't help shouting at her: "Grandpa, help me!"

Ningshuang came out with full strength, and blocked the oncoming black shadow. In an instant, the blood splashed and dripped on the white snow, like red plum blossoms blooming in the ice and snow.

Without giving these people a chance to retreat, Man Jiangxue flew into the crowd, flying away in a ring of frost, and only heard a few screams, and those men in black plunged to the ground one after another, falling to the ground.

The rest of the people looked at each other, not daring to step forward.

"withdraw!"

Xu Shi was devastated, seeing that Man Jiangxue was difficult to deal with and his skills were strong, those people didn't bother them much, so they immediately stopped and left.

This fight came and went quickly, Man Jiangxue didn't want to chase and kill, so she stopped when she saw it.

Several men and women hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed at her.

"Thank you benefactor for your rescue!"

In the night, Man Jiangxue turned around, holding the blood-stained long sword, and asked calmly, "Who are you?"

A famous young man stood up and bowed to her: "It turned out to be a heroine. We are all students studying in neighboring counties. We are going back to Qingluo City for the New Year. I didn't expect to be robbed by mountain bandits tonight. If it weren't for the heroine to rescue me , we are afraid that we will die without a whole body."

Man Jiangxue didn't reply, she went to see how Yin Qiu was at the first moment, but she didn't see Yin Qiu behind the previous tree.

At the same time, there were a few stamping sounds quietly coming from behind.

Man Jiangxue's eyes turned cold, and she looked sideways, and saw that several men and women who were lucky to be rescued just now had performed lightness kung fu and fled in all directions, and disappeared in an instant.
