Half-dead paulownia

"It's not to find out the whereabouts of the little prince, is it?" He just kept an aloof back, "If you want to know the whereabouts of Xiao Jinmo, then you really look up to me, Qin." The words broke Guiyue's heart thought.

"What if I know who that betrayer is?" Guiyue's tone revealed a trace of mystery, and even her eyes were a little strange.

Before Ziye even had time to see what happened, Qin Xiangkai tightened the clothes on Guiyue's chest in the blink of an eye. He, who had never expressed much, showed a strange restlessness on his face at this moment. The scar also reveals a cold and murderous look.

"What do you know?" Qin Xiangkai even roared angrily. From words to expressions, he was no longer him. Perhaps this was the hidden truth.

Ziye couldn't help being shocked by the scene in front of him. Perhaps this kind of emotion was only angered when he watched his beloved wife die.

Guiyue didn't stop Qin Xiangkai's movement, but showed a faint smile and looked straight at each other: "Is this the only thing that can move you?"

"Tell me who it is!" Qin Xiangkai continued to ask as if he was insane.

"Where is Xiao Jinmo?" Guiyue didn't make any concessions at all, but seemed to be negotiating a deal, even though the person in front of her was Qin Xiangkai, who was very skilled in martial arts.

"Are you lying to me?" Although Qin Xiangkai asked tentatively, he could see the unwillingness in his heart, "I just want to know the whereabouts of Xiao Jinmo, why use this as a threat? You know You can't talk nonsense." As he spoke, he loosened the hands that were holding Guiyue tightly as if he had returned to rationality.

"Believe it or not." Guiyue had an unpredictable expression.

"Well, it seems that your feelings for Xiao Jinmo are really unusual." Qin Xiangkai took a deep breath, "What you want to know, maybe you can look for that man named Duguao." He didn't intend to continue Being entangled with Guiyue, I also feel that his words are just for that Xiao Jinmo, so I still plan to leave.

"Equal exchange, what you want to know, maybe you can look for that man named Ye Lan." Guiyue repeated Qin Xiangkai's words deliberately.

Although he didn't intend to believe Guiyue, after hearing his answer, his back was a little trembling, and he didn't ask too much, and gradually disappeared into the dark night.

"Are you following me?" Gui Yue looked down at Zi Ye, who had been staring in Qin Xiangkai's direction, and turned her head away with her hand a little displeased.

"Why should I follow you? Hurry up and find Xiao Jinmo." The confrontation with Guiyue made Ziye feel a little unnatural, and left with flustered eyes, "Baby can't be left alone for a long time, I have to go back." He quickly shifted his words and wanted to leave quickly.

Guiyue still refused to let go of her hands, and even pulled Ziye's head with some force, her palms tightly sticking to that delicate face.

"Knowing that the baby can't be without someone, but she still came out." Guiyue said a little viciously, "Are you caring about me? Why are you so stubborn?" She actually said it brazenly.

Ziye's original uneasy expression immediately turned into disgust. In such an ambiguous atmosphere, only Guiyue's scream was heard. It turned out that Ziye stomped on Guiyue's foot fiercely while taking advantage of his unpreparedness, and then fled crazily.

"Damn it! Originally, I wanted to ask him what the conversation between Qin Xiangkai and him meant, but he took the opportunity to interrogate me first." While leaving quickly, he muttered to himself.

(Yan Chikou)

Yanchikou is the southernmost part of the capital of Anling. It is known as the "lifeline of the capital" because it is not like other fortresses where the weather is bad and the terrain is dangerous. On the contrary, it has beautiful mountains and rivers and pleasant scenery, but it has become a battleground for military strategists. The land is an important line of defense for attacking the capital of Anling.

Although it is a sluggish autumn, it has a special taste here. The mature golden yellow covers the ground, and the wind and the grass stir up groups of migratory birds, soaring wantonly in this vast sky, and the fallen leaves from time to time Not reconciled to being silent in this land, dancing with the sassy autumn wind.

"Report! Master Luo, there is an audience in front of the city gate." A guard came to the hunting ground out of breath, and said respectfully.

"Do I still need to deal with this kind of thing myself? I think it's getting more and more useless to keep you guys." On a red horse, a man in armor uttered a resonant voice. From his powerful voice, one could tell that this man was a strong man.

"But??? But he insisted on seeing you, so I have to disturb your elegant mood, I'm afraid it will delay some important event." The guard's tone was a little nervous, but he also explained his intention.

"See me? What else did he say?" The tone was full of disdain, and the bow and arrow in his hand shone with dazzling light, and it was obvious at a glance that it was not an ordinary thing.

"He just said something inexplicably, 'Qingping is only for Qing, but Taiping is not peaceful', and said that as long as this sentence is reported to Lord Luo, he will understand." The guard recalled what the man at the door said.

"It seems that he is here, bring it here." The man did not look back from the beginning to the end, sitting proudly on the steed, and once again tightened the bowstring.

Outside the high city gate, Dugu Ao and Xiao Jinmo looked at the heavily guarded pass, waiting for someone to let them through.

"Young Master Dugu, is this the place you mentioned?" Xiao Jinmo looked at the soldiers patrolling back and forth, and said curiously, "It seems to be a military camp, so many soldiers."

"That's right, this is the most important fortress in the capital of Anling, and the person who holds the military power in it is King Zhenxiang, Luo Shengchuan." Dugu Ao explained: "Because I sit in one side, and now I have enough soldiers in my hand, so I named myself Yihou, everyone calls him Lord Luo."

"Do you know him?" Xiao Jinmo didn't expect that Dugu Ao would bring him here. Although he knew from his words that he was defecting to a big man, he didn't expect it to be such a powerful person.

"I was kind enough to save his life." Duguao said lightly, he would not tell Xiao Jinmo that it happened when he was still in Qingpingzhai.

The two agreed on that day that if one day in the future he needs help, as long as Duguao can come to find Master Luo by relying on the poem just now, he will definitely help him. Besides, Lord Luo appreciated Duguao very much at that time and wanted to For my use, but he is only for Qingping Village.

"Let go!" A shout broke the tranquility here, and the guards outside the door let Duguao and Xiao Jinmo in.

Following the guards all the way to the hunting ground, he saw Lord Luo's heroic figure galloping in the wilderness. Although he hadn't seen him for many years, Duguao still saw the proud and manic Luo Shengchuan at a glance.

Sitting quietly on the horse, erecting the bow and arrow, before seeing the arrow leaving the string, the horse galloped to the other direction, and then a shadow fell from the sky, and landed on the outstretched hand impartially.

"Good eyesight, good bow and arrow!" Duguao couldn't help but praise, although he knew that Luo Shengchuan was old, but he was still strong and resourceful.

"Hahaha???" A hearty laugh came from not far away, and he walked towards Duguao with the spoils, "Young Master Dugu has a discerning eye, this bow and arrow is rare in the world."

I saw a slightly elderly man stepping down from the horse swiftly. His face was covered with vicissitudes of life, and his dark skin revealed a well-proportioned and healthy luster. His eyes, sharp as an eagle, showed a Tough and cunning that don't match his age, his tall and burly figure is still tall and straight.

"Thank you Lord Luo for your compliment." Dugu replied politely, but he also noticed that Luo Shengchuan was staring at Xiao Jinmo in front of him. "Lord Luo, this is my younger brother, so is Xiao Jinmo."

"Lord Luo." Xiao Jinmo then said politely.

"When did you have another younger brother? Could it be that he was a handsome man captured from the mountains?" Lord Luo asked with a questioning tone, but also showed admiration for Xiao Jinmo's appearance.

"It's just that my younger brother is always physically weak and rarely sees people. Now you must know what happened to us, so I can only take my younger brother with you." Dugu Ao showed a sad expression, very similar to the old days. There is no need to mention the sadness.

"How could I not understand? It's just Anling Yuhao's trick, which made you lose everything, but instead let me see you again in my lifetime." Lord Luo couldn't help but sigh with emotion, "Young Master Dugu, let's go back and discuss it in detail." Forget it, hand the injured bird to the guards around you.

However, Xiao Jinmo suddenly looked at the bird in the guard's hand without moving: "Master Luo, I wonder what you want to do with this bird?" His tone seemed a bit worried.

"Let them steam and cook. I have laid down too much every day when I am bored, and I don't have much appetite." It seemed to be showing off.

Xiao Jinmo paused, and looked at some of the birds that were still struggling. Although the wounded place was bleeding continuously, their mouths were still opening and closing to say something, and their eyes were full of desolation and helplessness.

"Can you reward him to me?" Xiao Jinmo's tone was almost pleading.

"You want?" Lord Luo looked at Xiao Jinmo with a smile on his face, as if he had never left since the first time he saw him, "If you like it, I'll shoot a few more. I thought it was Xiao Jinmo who liked this kind of bird, but he put away his airs because of him, and wanted to continue hunting.

"No need, Xiao Jinmo just likes this one." Duguao saw the clue, and quickly stopped Lord Luo's footsteps. "Is it Xiao Jinmo? Otherwise, our Lord Hou will continue to catch a few more for you."

"Is this one enough?" Lord Luo just asked Xiao Jinmo as usual.

"Well, that's enough." Xiao Jinmo responded nervously, almost making a big mistake, and then quickly picked up the injured bird, eyes full of pity.

"Haha, so your brother likes these birds." Master Luo laughed and said to Duguao, it seemed that he was in a particularly good mood today, and he felt younger.
