Looking to the Thirteen Rivers

Qin Zheng was stunned: "Do you know where the holy sword is?"

Nan Gongmin said: "Of course I know. The reason why I asked Wen Chaoyu to teach Yin Qiujie was never to force Xie Yijun to replace him with the holy sword. The holy sword is not in Yunhua Palace," she paused for a moment. Looking up at Ye Kong, he said, "It's worth it for those two people to show up for a main altar."

Qin Zheng was at a loss, and was confused when he heard it: "...What do you mean?"

Nangong Min glanced at her and said, "Yunhua Palace is an eternal enemy, but besides Yunhua Palace, who else wants to be our enemy, do you know?"

Qin Zheng was stunned, and suddenly realized: "You used Yin Qiu to lure that man and woman out on purpose!"

Nangong Min laughed: "Not bad."

Qin Zheng was puzzled: "But you don't know them, and you don't know their existence. How could you think of luring them out?"

"Of course I know of their existence," Nangong Min said. "After you went to Jinhuai City to destroy the Su family, some informers reported that after you left, two groups of people followed you to the Su family."

Qin Zheng was taken aback again.

"I can't attract Shen Mandong, but I have attracted two foxes. They are willing to show up in front of me for Yin Qiu. What do you mean? It means that both of them have a great relationship with Yin Qiu. I don't want her to be trapped in the Ziwei Sect, and the woman claimed Looking for revenge on me, who do you think is a person who has a relationship with Yin Qiu and wants to seek revenge on me?"

Qin Zheng followed her train of thought for a while, then raised her eyes and said, "Ruyi Gate!"

"She has already made full preparations and is waiting to fight with me," Nangong Min said, "Then I will make a stop. All in all, these two people are very useful to me."

At this moment, Qin Zheng admired Nangong Min's strategy and mind so much, her eyes showed admiration, and the anger that had filled her belly immediately dissipated, and she said happily, "Who is that black-robed man?"

Nangong Min narrowed his eyes slightly, and said: "These two people dare not see me with their true colors, which means that I must recognize them, but the man has not spoken, and has not revealed any information, so it is difficult to guess at present." She stood for a while , commanded, "Immediately send followers who are good at tracking to follow up. Be sure to find out the details of the two of them and report as soon as possible."

Qin Zheng immediately took orders and said, "Yes, this subordinate will do it now." After she finished speaking, she asked again, "Will you send someone to chase after Man Jiangxue?"

Nangong Min said: "Why are you so stupid? I didn't really want to keep Yin Qiu, so what are you chasing after? Otherwise, Man Jiangxue came out secretly, and I should fight her."

No wonder she didn't intend to fight Man Jiangxue from the beginning to the end, that's why!

Qin Zheng had an epiphany.

"Before you track down those two people, you have to call someone to meet me." Nangong Min said.

"Who?" Qin Zheng paused.

Nangong Min snorted, "Wen Chaoyu."

Man Jiangxue took out the fire book and blew on it, and looked at the sheepskin drawing in his hand with the faint light of the fire.

The Magnolia Hall is Nangong Min's longest residence other than the Maple Tower. Naturally, the Fire Cultists will save these two places first. It is already late at night, and it will be dawn in a short time. The fire around the Magnolia Hall It has been extinguished, and there is no one around the entire palace, trapped in darkness.

"What is Uncle Master looking at?" Yin Qiu leaned against Man Jiangxue's arms, still very nervous, and kept looking outside the hall, for fear that someone would find them hiding here.

"Find a secret path." Man Jiangxue said.

"What secret way?" Yin Qiu shivered from the cold.

Man Jiangxue held Yin Qiu's hand and used her internal strength to drive her away from the cold, and replied, "There is a red dot marked on the blueprint, which is the secret passage leading to the outside of the main altar of the Ziwei Sect. Although Nangong Min did not catch up, But we still can't go through the gate, we have to find the secret path."

Yin Qiu tilted his head and looked, and saw that the red dot happened to be in the Magnolia Hall, but it didn't describe in detail where it was, so he couldn't understand it, but he analyzed it and said: "Since it is a secret way , there must be a mechanism, we look around, maybe we can come across it.”

Man Jiangxue replied "Yes", and handed the Huozhangzi to Yin Qiu, and the two began to grope around in the hall.

But after a long time, the tables, chairs, benches, antiques and jades, as well as the paintings on the walls, as long as they are things that can be seen with the eyes, the two of them tried almost all of them, but they still couldn't see any mechanisms that were triggered.

The midnight was deep, and many people could still hear shouts from a distance. Yin Qiu couldn't help but feel a little flustered after searching for a long time, and whispered, "Master, is there a mistake in the blueprint, and the secret path is not here?"

Man Jiangxue thought for a moment, and said: "Probably not, Wan Shu and I followed the blueprint when we were looking for you before, and we didn't find anything wrong, and the little girl was obviously here to help us. Find it."

Looking at the dark night outside the window, Yin Qiu was a little worried: "Why hasn't Senior Sister Ji come yet? Nothing will happen to her."

Man Jiangxue said: "Don't worry, I specially untied her rope before I left, not to mention Wen Chaoyu is here, she won't let Wan Shu get into trouble."

Hearing what she said, Yin Qiu's mood was relieved a little. She held the torch and wandered around, moving slowly in the darkness, but unexpectedly stepped on something when she was retreating, the sole of her foot slipped, and she staggered suddenly. Almost stumbled.

Yin Qiu gave a low breath, and hurriedly stabilized her body, but she stepped on the air in a very strange way before taking two steps. Before she could stand still, she fell backwards again.

Before Yin Qiu could see what was behind her, she just heard a "plop", and she fell into a pool of lingering temperature without warning.

"Uncle!" Yin Qiu was inevitably frightened, and shouted as soon as he entered the water.

Hearing the movement, Man Jiangxue immediately turned around and jumped into the pool.

In fact, it was just an ordinary soup pond, but because the incident happened too suddenly, and the place was dark and blind, Yin Qiu didn't react in a hurry, and she didn't know how to water, so she struggled subconsciously in the pond Get up, lest you drown here.

"Don't move around." Man Jiangxue said, and quickly reached out to pick up Yin Qiu, but she just touched Yin Qiu's hand, but she heard a "click" sound in the water, and then she saw Yin Qiu again. Suddenly she sank into the water suddenly, as if someone was pulling her down on purpose. At the same time, a huge suction force suddenly spread, and Man Jiangxue was pulled by the suction force, and she also fell into the water.

Hearing the sound of "rumbling" coming from his ears, as if some mechanism started to operate, Yin Qiu's back touched the bottom of the pool just now, but the place suddenly cracked open, and an even more terrifying explosion erupted. Suction, Yin Qiu choked a few sips of water, coughed hard, she tried her best to raise her arms to grab something, but she could only touch the slippery stone wall.

Cut off from the air, Yin Qiu couldn't breathe. She had already exhaled the breath before. She watched herself sinking rapidly, feeling extremely terrified in her heart, so she could only throw herself violently in the water like a conditioned reflex.

The water was even darker, and she couldn't see anything clearly. Man Jiangxue only felt that Yin Qiu's figure was getting farther and farther away from her, so she had to try her best to catch up with her. He closed them heavily, and completely sealed the two of them together.

The water in the pool above was still warm, but the water below was extremely cold. Yin Qiu seemed to have fallen into an ice cave, and it was difficult to breathe. The suction pulled her tightly, consuming Yin Qiu's little strength. Followed her to go straight to a deeper place.

The whole body was in darkness, and there was no light at all. Yin Qiu was terrified, and could not call out to Man Jiangxue. She struggled with her hands and feet, but it was in vain. She didn't know where the water was. Let people have no power to parry.

What's more, the water is rushing, and the water temperature is freezing cold. Yin Qiu couldn't even open her eyes. She couldn't see where Man Jiangxue was, and she couldn't restrain the panic in her heart. Fortunately, it didn't take long before she felt a hand grab her After touching the corner of her clothes, Yin Qiu paused in the water, was led back by that hand, and plunged into Man Jiangxue's arms.

The two hugged each other tightly and went down the river. After a while, a dim white light slowly leaked from the bottom, as if some kind of exit was ushered in.

As it got closer, the white light became more intense. Yin Qiu drank a stomach full of water, and now he was dizzy from being suffocated, severely hypoxic, and his consciousness began to blur.

At first she was able to hold on to Man Jiangxue with all her strength, but as her consciousness faded and the suction became stronger as she got closer to the white light, Yin Qiu gradually lost her strength, her whole body went limp, and she let go of Man Jiangxue uncontrollably .

Her body was like a fallen leaf in the river, being freely manipulated by the suction force, Yin Qiu fell into the center of the white light and sank straight down, her eyes closed tightly, Man Jiangxue saw her current appearance clearly, her heart tensed, and she hurriedly mobilized her true energy Chasing after her, he grabbed Yin Qiu's waist and brought her into his arms again.

In an instant, all the surrounding light became brighter, the suction force no longer existed, and the water was no longer so rushing. The two of them seemed to have rushed into a river, and finally regained some strength to move.

Man Jiangxue immediately took Yin Qiu to swim towards the surface of the water. On the way, she shook Yin Qiu vigorously, trying to wake her up, but Yin Qiu only raised his eyelids with difficulty, and then quickly closed them dizzily.

Not long after, Yin Qiu suddenly jumped a few more times, and the consciousness of survival made her struggle violently.

If she didn't return to the ground, she would be suffocated to death.

Before entering the water, Man Jiangxue took a breath deliberately, and she didn't let it out until then. Seeing that Yin Qiu was already unconscious, she quickly hugged Yin Qiu tightly, and at the same time lowered her head and moved towards Yin Qiu.

Yin Qiu was wrapped in a lingering sense of suffocation, her internal organs were about to explode, and unexpectedly, she was pinched to death by Man Jiangxue's hands, unable to move at all. When Yin Qiu was in despair, he suddenly felt the cold water flow Suddenly, there was a little warmth in it, as if it was sticking to her lips, with a soft touch.

Yin Qiu was startled, and finally regained her senses in a daze, afraid that she would be strangled to death by something like aquatic plants wrapped around her neck. She was about to open her eyes to take a look, but the next moment, she felt something pry open She clenched her lips and teeth, and sealed her lips very quickly. At the same time, a gust of thin air poured into her mouth, which made her take a hasty breath at this critical moment.

It's just that the tone quickly dissipated, and then there was no more, and the touch on the lips also left immediately. Yin Qiu suddenly understood something, as if grabbing a life-saving straw, hurriedly approached the person in front of him , She thought she could ask for another breath, but she only felt someone pat her on the forehead, and she didn't move extra.

Immediately afterwards, the hand around her waist tightened again, and Yin Qiu was tightly pressed against Man Jiangxue, and she was brought out of the water by her, and finally escaped from the bottom of the water.

·

The air returned to the nostrils, and Yin Qiu breathed impatiently, and a fishy sweetness soon filled his throat.

Hearing Man Jiangxue's heavy breathing on top of his head, Yin Qiu's eyes were terrified, he looked around blankly, took two breaths and began to cough violently.

She was extremely tired, and now she only knew to take a quick breath, her mind was blank, and she had no time to think about anything. Although Man Jiangxue looked calm, she was no better than her. The two of them stayed in the water for a while, and Man Jiangxue immediately He took Yin Qiuyou to the shore, and once they returned to the ground, the two of them collapsed together again, their chests heaving violently, and the whole place was filled with the sound of their breathing.

I don't know how long it took, Yin Qiu stopped coughing, fell to the ground with his head up and gasped, and then he felt half alive, but he was also weak and unable to move due to exhaustion.

After a while, Man Jiangxue got up and helped her up, and asked, "How is it?"

Yin Qiu looked at her with tears in his eyes, and said hoarsely, "Where is this?"

Man Jiangxue looked at the surrounding scenery, and found that this was a secret passage, with oil lamps burning on the stone walls on both sides, and a spacious river stalking in the middle, with no end in sight, and on the wall opposite them, there was There is a circular hole with water flowing continuously, which just connects with the river in front of them. It seems that they rushed here from that hole just now.

If you guessed right, there should be some mechanism in the soup pool that Yin Qiu accidentally touched, which happened to make her accidentally hit and open the entrance of the secret passage.

Man Jiangxue was thinking like this, and then heard Yin Qiu weakly say: "I fell into the pool before, and I seemed to touch something..."

Man Jiangxue looked back at her, and smiled slightly: "It's thanks to you this time, otherwise we would still be unable to get out."

In fact, it is not impossible for her to take Yin Qiu through the gate, but the purple-clothed woman and the black-robed man have already left, and Nangong Minruo intends to intercept her. Although Man Jiangxue is not afraid to fight her, she cannot guarantee whether Yin Qiu will or not Will be hurt by her, so it is much safer to walk the secret path, even if the process is a bit rough.

The two of them were drenched, they had just been fished out of the water, and Yin Qiu's breath was still a little disturbed. Recalling the danger just now, she quickly hugged Man Jiangxue, and said with tears in her eyes, "Fortunately, there is an uncle Now, it's scary..."

"It's okay, I've come out," Man Jiangxue caressed Yin Qiu's back, and let out a sigh of relief, "It's lucky that you're okay, and I'm also glad that the main altar of the Ziwei Sect was built in a low basin. , if there is no secret way, the believers can only be besieged to death, and this secret way was dug to escape, but fortunately we found it."

Yin Qiu nodded, and then she smiled. She looked at the surrounding environment, and then at Man Jiangxue's face against the lights, and said with half joy and half grievance: "Uncle Master is here, don't you I know, how much I miss you these half a month," she said, unable to hold back tears, "Someone in the palace reported a letter to Nangong Min, and she knew that you and Senior Sister Ji would come to save me, so she did it a long time ago. Well prepared, I am looking forward to your coming, but I am also afraid that you will be caught by her when you come, uncle...uncle!"

The little man burst into tears, his eyes were full of attachment and dependence on himself, Man Jiangxue hugged Yin Qiu tightly, and comforted her softly: "Okay, Xiao Qiu won't cry, uncle, isn't that right?" Are you here?"

Welcomed to the familiar embrace again, and also heard the familiar voice, Yin Qiu was extremely moved, and soon broke into a smile: "I knew that the uncle would come to save me!"

"Uncle Master will definitely not ignore you," Man Jiangxue stood up and gave Yin Qiu a hand, "Can you still go?"

Yin Qiu wiped away tears, said "Mmm", and immediately stood up supporting Man Jiangxue's arms, but her legs were so weak that she couldn't stand steadily, and she just took a step before she fell crookedly. Man Jiangxue squatted down, looked sideways at Yin Qiu and said, "Come up, I'll carry you on my back."

Yin Qiu was very unhappy, and didn't want to be polite to her, so he put his body on Man Jiangxue's back and was carried by her.

There are narrow paths for people to walk on both sides of the river. Man Jiangxue observed the water situation and walked slowly in the direction of the downstream. Yin Qiu leaned his head on her shoulder, his face was full of joy, she crooked Looking over at Man Jiangxue, seeing that her face was still dripping with water, she stretched out her hand to wipe her.

Under the dim candlelight, Man Jiangxue's black hair was drenched with strands sticking to her forehead, cheeks and neck. Yin Qiu fixed her hair and stared at Man Jiangxue's side face non-stop.

She first looked at Man Jiangxue's eyebrows and eyes, then at her straight nose bridge, and then at the slightly curved corners of her mouth, with unpainted and red lips.

As soon as his eyes fell on those lips, a hazy picture flashed in his mind, and Yin Qiu was stunned.

She suddenly remembered the warm and soft touch she felt in the water before, and then looked at the lips in front of her that she had secretly touched, Yin Qiu's heart moved, and her pale face just now turned pale. become flushed.

Feeling confused for a moment, Yin Qiu subconsciously held his breath, secretly thinking, what did the uncle do to her in the water?

Martial uncle... Did you relieve her?

Thinking of the word "crossing qi", Yin Qiu's face turned even redder.

The author has something to say: Although the underwater air passage is a bit vulgar, it is a bit rotten.

But it works!
