Looking to the Thirteen Rivers

There is thick snow near the pavilion, the spruce is evergreen all year round, and the bright new green is mixed with clean white.There was no snow falling on the dome, and the sky above the distant mountains gradually revealed a thin light. The observatory was open in the wanton and continuous morning wind. Such a beautiful scenery, but no one wanted to watch it.

After working all night, the clothes of several people were more or less stained with mud, and their bodies were covered with sweat. Xie Yijun stood all night, her waist was sore and her knees hurt, but now she couldn't sit still. She walked back and forth, trying to hold back her anger Without saying a word, he suppressed his anger and said: "It's too much to bully... It's too much to bully! Nangong Min is playing tricks on us again, so I said how could the holy sword of her Ziwei sect be in our Yunhua Palace!"

Yin Qiu wiped his sweat with a handkerchief, panting: "But she didn't look like a fake that day, could it be that Xiaoqi lied to her? Maybe Nangong Min himself is not sure whether the holy sword is in the observatory or not."

"Now the result has come out, there is no holy sword in this place," Xie Yijun said, "This also means that she will not tell who Xiao Qi is, if she tells, Xiao Qi will definitely not take the holy sword Give it to her, Nangong Min is being manipulated by others, and it's useless for us to follow her!"

Wen Chaoyu took off his coat, stood at the corner of the pavilion to cool off, and said: "That's not necessarily true, Nangong Min may tolerate Xiao Qi dragging her, but she will never tolerate Xiao Qi cheating on her, as long as we tell Nangong Min about it." , she will know that she has been being played by others, and based on what I know about her, she will definitely abandon Xiaoqi's chess piece and deal with her in reverse."

Xie Yijun murmured: "So, is it possible that even Xiaoqi doesn't know where the holy sword is, and she just used it to lie to Nangong Min?"

Wen Zhaoyu said: "Impossible, she must know that Nangong Min is not so easy to deceive, now we can confirm that Xiaoqi is from outside the pass, if she hadn't really seen the Holy Sword, how could Nangong Min trust her? You know, although Nangong Min is willing to tell the whereabouts of the holy sword this time, she also made a request to Yin Qiu to draw the outline of the holy sword, so Xiao Qi definitely knows where the holy sword is."

"But there is still a problem," Yin Qiu said, "Cang County is going south, even if we send a letter at this time, it will take several days for Nangong Min to receive it, and when she replies to us again, it will be another It will be a few days later, at least it will take half a month. And during this half month, if Xiaoqi notices our actions, she will have enough time to escape, in case Nangong Min has not received If you don't believe me, she will run away first, then it will not be so easy for us to catch her again."

In particular, the observatory has been razed to the ground by the few of them. Even if no one saw it last night, this matter will not be hidden for long. The tombs of the masters and ancestors disappeared overnight. There was quite a storm in the palace, and it was only a matter of time before it reached Xiao Qi's ears.

And once Xiaoqi heard about the Star Observation Tower, she would definitely guess that Nangong Min had made a deal with Yunhua Palace, and before the letter reached Cang County, she would run away secretly, and she would never be so stupid Waiting for Nangong Min to expose her.

If there really is a holy sword in this place, it's all right, Yunhua Palace is not too disadvantaged, with the holy sword, it can stabilize Ziwei sect and push Nangongmin to the disadvantage, but who would have thought that Xiao Qi would be so courageous?She even dared to lie to Nangong Min.

In this way, the cooperation between Yin Qiu and Nan Gongmin is almost useless. Regardless of whether the Holy Sword is present or not, Xiao Qi can see the opportunity to escape. Even though this person is too insidious and cunning, she has to admit that she This trick is really subtle, it not only ensures that the holy sword is in hand, but also guarantees his own safety.

In other words, it is already impossible to find Xiao Qi in Yunhua Palace. Even if everyone can know who she is after she escapes, but everyone has run away, so it is so easy to catch Xiao Qi again. Can she catch it back?

Xie Yijun blew the cold wind all night, and seeing the situation once again reached a stalemate, he felt headache and body discomfort.

"Then what should we do next? We haven't found the holy sword, and we have to escape, so aren't we still in a passive situation?"

There was silence in the gazebo.

After a while passed, Man Jiangxue said: "Senior sister, please be safe and don't be impatient. The matter is not at the point of no return, and there is still room for change."

Hearing what she said, Xie Yijun was overjoyed: "What's your opinion?"

Seeing that the fine sweat on Yin Qiu's forehead was almost dry, Man Jiangxue put on her robe and replied: "We can't hide the fact that we have found the holy sword, so we should just not hide it." , release the words immediately, and push the whole matter to Nangong Min."

Xie Yijun said, "How do you reason?"

Man Jiangxue looked at Yin Qiu and asked, "Tell me?"

Yin Qiu thought for a while, then suddenly his eyes lit up, and he replied: "We can say... Nangong Min took the initiative to exchange the holy sword with us in the identity of Xiaoqi, but we got nothing last night, so we decided it was Nangong Min They are deliberately teasing us. In this way, Nangong Min unilaterally distrusted Xiao Qi and wanted to make other plans, and Xiao Qi couldn't get away in the palace at this time, and she couldn't confront Nan Gong Min face to face, so The news she can get is that Nangong Min is already going to deal with her, and we only place the blame on Nangong Min, then Xiao Qi will think that she is still safe, and she will not rush to escape."

Man Jiangxue showed appreciation: "Not bad."

"A good idea!" Wen Chaoyu slapped his hands, and looked at Yin Qiu with more praise in his eyes, "You're quite smart."

Yin Qiu smiled modestly: "Uncle Shi is smart, I just said what uncle wanted to say."

After hearing this, Xie Yijun finally softened his expression a little, and sighed: "This is a good strategy... But it's all just talk on paper, if Xiao Qi doesn't believe it, what should I do?"

Man Jiangxue said: "Then I have to do one more thing that can stabilize her and make her believe in it."

After hearing this, several people in the pavilion all looked at Yin Qiu in unison the next moment.

Facing the eyes of expectation falling on her body, Yin Qiu didn't seem restrained. She pondered for a moment and said slowly: "If we want to keep her safe, there are only two ways to go, either we pretend not to pursue the details, or ...Just find a 'fine work' to come out."

Man Jiangxue said: "Then who do you think is the most suitable to play the role of 'Small Work'?"

Yin Qiu paused, raised his eyes and said, "Senior Sister Lu!"

As soon as these words came out, except for Kai Man Jiangxue, everyone present showed the same bright expression.

"That's right, Huai Wei is the best candidate," Man Jiangxue continued Yin Qiu's words, "After one night, the story of her committing suicide during the trial must have spread. Since Xiao Qiben picked her, let Huai Wei Be her scapegoat, then we will follow the trend and do whatever we can."

Yin Qiu couldn't help raising his brows, and said joyfully: "As long as we give Senior Sister Lu the crime of espionage, and leave all the matter of opening the grave to find the sword to Nangong Min, Xiao Qi will not run away in a hurry, even if she looks at her. Something about the star station has caused some suspicion, but the fact that Senior Sister Lu was identified by us as a secret agent is enough to stabilize her."

"But Elder Xu and Meng Jing both know that Huai Wei is innocent," Ji Wanshu heard this, and said, "And the other disciples in the Medical Pavilion, they may have known about this, maybe last night spread."

"This senior sister can rest assured that Elder Xu and Meng Jing will not tell others," Yin Qiu said, "Bai Ling told them yesterday that before the matter is fully disclosed, regardless of whether Senior Sister Lu was wronged or not To keep it completely secret, so as not to spread rumors in the palace, Elder Xu and Meng Jing are both people who know how to measure, without the order of the head and uncle, they will definitely not leak it easily."

Originally thought that the situation had reached an irreversible point, but unexpectedly after such a discussion, the dark clouds were unexpectedly cleared to see the light again. Xie Yijun was in a good mood, and immediately ordered: "Very good, very good! Wanshu, you now Let’s start to do it, and pass on the matter of why the clothes grave was excavated and Huai Wei was convicted, and everyone in the palace must know!”

Ji Wanshu hurriedly got up and stood up, without saying a word, he used Qinggong to walk towards the Mingguang Palace, and there was no one in the blink of an eye.

Yin Qiu breathed a sigh of relief, and couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "It's just that Senior Sister Lu has suffered, but I believe that if she learns the truth, she will not blame us. Now that I think about it, she and Senior Sister Ji were intercepted by killers on the way back to the palace, and it must be Xiaoqi. The purpose of this is to deepen our suspicion of Senior Sister Lu."

Xie Yijun said angrily: "This person has such a vicious heart, if I find her out one day, I will definitely make her life worse than death!"

"Let me remind you," Wen Zhaoyu sat down at the stone table, and suddenly said, "Even if you can hold Xiaoqi securely now, it's still unknown whether Nangongmin will expose her, after all, she has such a temperament. It's too unpredictable to measure her with the way of ordinary people's thinking, if Nangong Min doesn't say anything, you still have to find Xiaoqi out by yourself, so what are you going to do next?"

Her words made sense, Yin Qiu calmed down and asked, "So, is there any good way for Uncle Wen to lure her out?"

Wen Chaoyu bent his lips and smiled, and said, "Is there a way, but I don't know if you are willing or not." After she finished speaking, she looked at Man Jiangxue beside her, "The point is actually whether you are willing or not."

Man Jiangxue looked back at Wen Chaoyu and said, "Let's listen first."

Wen Zhaoyu then said: "Now we all know that Xiaoqi is here for you, but she doesn't want to kill you, she just wants to torture you by dealing with people close to you, that's why she treats Yin Qiu Let's go, since this is the case, if something happens to Yin Qiu, do you think she will be more anxious than you?"

Hearing her words, the three people on the opposite side were a little surprised, even Xue Tan who had been bored all morning couldn't help being surprised and said: "The meaning of the guardian is...?"

"This time Wei Cheng and his party, she came to me in advance and asked me to protect you secretly, and didn't want you to die in the hands of others," Wen Chaoyu looked at Yin Qiu and said, "To Xiaoqi, you are her only weakness at present. As long as something happens to you, preferably life-threatening, she will definitely not remain silent."

Yin Qiu frowned: "You want me to act in a play?" She paused, "But what if instead of saving me this time, she took the opportunity to stab me twice?"

"Isn't this just right?" Wen Chaoyu said, "I killed you to torture Man Jiangxue, so she will definitely not let others do it for me, and I must do it myself in front of Man Jiangxue, so as to achieve her goal." purpose, and as long as she is willing to show up, with Man Jiangxue around, are you afraid that you won’t be able to take her down?"

Yin Qiu said, "What if she doesn't show up?"

"There is only one possibility for her not to show up, that is, she knows that you will not die, and Man Jiangxue will definitely stand by your side and try her best to save your life. She has no chance to do anything, so naturally she won't show up," Wen Zhaoyu said, " So you have to act real, either let her know that you have reached the point where you can't be saved, she must let Man Jiangxue watch her kill you before you die, or only she can save you, because only you Only by surviving can she continue to use you to deal with Man Jiangxue, just like she asked me to go to Weicheng to protect you."

After saying these words, Wen Zhaoyu followed up and said: "But the former method is too dangerous, if something goes wrong and she stabs you to death, that would be bad, so we can only choose to let her kill you." She came to save you, and she has to be the only one who can save you."

Man Jiangxue listened quietly all the time, and never interrupted hastily, but Xie Yijun said impatiently: "Okay, stop talking, just tell us what we should do."

Wen Chaoyu gave her a blank look, but deliberately played tricks, and asked Yin Qiu with interest: "You could guess what Man Jiangxue wanted to say before, but now, can you guess what I want to say?"

Yin Qiu couldn't help laughing and said, "You and Uncle Shi made a special trip to come up with a question for me today." After she finished speaking, she began to think along Wen Zhaoyu's train of thought, "If Xiao Qi can save him by himself... ..."

Wen Chaoyu looked at her leisurely: "How do you say?"

Yin Qiu looked pensive, and fell silent for a moment. After a long while, she raised her head suddenly and said in a loud voice: "Gu poison!"

Wen Chaoyu immediately snapped his fingers and praised: "That's right!"

Yin Qiu was complacent because he answered the question correctly, but quickly restrained his smile, and asked: "But we don't know how to control Gu poison with the sound of the flute, so what can we do to make the Gu insect in my body hurt me? "

Wen Chaoyu said: "Who said you want it to hurt you? Didn't you say that, we want to act."

Yin Qiu was puzzled.

"It's very simple. Invite Elder Xu over here and let him pretend to find a way to detoxify," Wen Zhaoyu said, "Just lie in the room and vomit a pool of blood. If others ask, they will say that Elder Xu made a mistake. The Gu worms didn't come out, but instead caused you to be backlashed. Once Xiao Qi finds out, she will definitely find out what went wrong. At that time, no matter whether her temporary intention is to save you or kill you, we will It’s so easy to catch a turtle in an urn, isn’t it easy to catch?”

Yin Qiu suddenly realized, and asked again: "But something happened to me, not to mention the uncle, even the brothers and sisters next to me will definitely come to see me after they know about it, will she take the risk and come forward?"

Wen Zhaoyu said: "It's also simple," she said, looking at the silent Man Jiangxue, with a bit of complacency in her tone, "If you think about it, you can know, Xiaoqi will definitely pick it up in the middle of the night Show up, and that time is also a good time for me to escape."

Yin Qiu reacted immediately: "You pretend you are going to escape back to the Ziwei Sect in the middle of the night, and the uncle will definitely go and catch you back, and seeing that the uncle is not there, and it is late at night, Xiao Qi will definitely come!"

Wen Chaoyu brushed his hair and looked at Man Jiangxue contentedly: "How is it? Am I extremely smart?"

Man Jiangxue glanced at her, but said nothing.

Yin Qiu immediately cheered and said: "Uncle Wen is really amazing!"

Seeing this, Xue Tan quickly followed Yin Qiu and said, "The protector is brilliant!"

Wen Chaoyu laughed heartily, and said with joy, "That's right, I was also a great Dharma protector after all."

Man Jiangxue looked at the energetic appearance of these three people, and she was not infected at all, so she did not express her opinion for a long time.

Wen Chaoyu raised his eyebrows, crossed his arms and said, "Why, you don't agree?"

Man Jiangxue looked at Yin Qiu with a look of worry in his eyes.

Knowing that she was worried about herself, Yin Qiurou said: "Uncle, don't worry too much. I think Uncle Wen's plan is feasible. Besides, with you guys watching in secret, there shouldn't be any accidents. Besides, there is Senior Sister Ji, she Kung Fu is so good, how many of you together can't protect me?"

"Yes, this method is indeed good," Xie Yijun thought for a while, and rarely agreed with Wen Zhaoyu, "Jiang Xue, in my opinion, just do as she said."

Man Jiangxue hesitated for a moment, then said in a low voice, "I'm just afraid of what happens."

"What's the chance?" Wen Zhaoyu said, "As long as she is willing to show up, Wan Shu can beat her to the teeth all by herself without your own hands. Why do you hesitate? Besides, she drank So many years of anti-aging medicine, the inside has already been exhausted, and the body is sick, so there is nothing to fear."

Man Jiangxue stared at Yin Qiu, and said: "If it was normal, I would not hesitate, but you are still injured and can't use your true energy. If there is a mistake, you have no power to protect yourself. It's not that I don't have the confidence to take her down, I'm just worried that something will happen to you."

Yin Qiu said: "But the matter has to be resolved, we can no longer let her hide by our side, and so far, there is no other way to lure her out. Uncle, even if this matter is dangerous, accidents may happen It is not a perfect solution, but I am not afraid, I am willing to risk my life, as long as I can catch her, I can do anything."

Seeing the unwavering expression on Yin Qiu's face, Man Jiangxue narrowed her eyes slightly, and fell silent again.

Xie Yijun comforted and said: "Jiang Xue, I understand what you are thinking in your heart. Do you feel that you have implicated Yin Qiu and don't want her to be that bait?" "You have to be clear, this matter is no longer a grudge between you and Xiaoqi, besides, the child has grown up, has courage, and brains, so you can let her practice more, you can't live forever Protect her? Or let her go and let her spread her wings and stand alone."

After hearing this, Man Jiangxue still didn't answer.

After a long time, she sighed, looked up at Yin Qiu, and said, "I'll think about it."
