Embrace the blade

In the darkness, Qin Zheng slowly opened his eyes and sat there for a long time before he remembered why he was in the wine cellar.

Qin Zheng leaned on the wall and stood up, and walked out staggeringly, the bright light hurt his eyes, he hurriedly raised his sleeves to cover it, and smelled the strong smell of alcohol on the crumpled robe.Qin Zheng didn't care about changing clothes, and walked straight to the other courtyard. The sun was light, the wind was humid, and there were occasional birdsong. It seemed that he had been drunk for half a day and a night, and it was another morning.

The maid I met chased after him and asked anxiously where the master had gone. The lady still cooked a table full of meals last night, and she didn't wait for you until late at night.

Qin Zheng turned a deaf ear to it, and just walked to the other courtyard, walked through the corridor, and stepped over the moon gate, he saw three people in the main hall talking.The man who claimed to be Liu Qiubai noticed him at a glance and greeted him with a smile. Qin Zheng pushed him away, fixed his eyes on the young man beside him, bent his knees, and knelt on the ground without warning. in front of him.

Jiang Li was startled and was about to dodge immediately, but Qin Zheng grabbed his arm tightly.

"Save Changfeng!" Qin Zheng opened his mouth hoarsely, "I know you have the "Secret of Longevity", I beg you to save Chen Changfeng!"

He used too much force, his protruding hands were like iron hoops, making Jiang Li ache from the grip.Jiang Li was at a loss, while trying to break free, he subconsciously looked at Qi Zhaoxi.Qi Zhaoxi had strode closer, and forcibly snapped off Qin Zheng's wrist with one hand, and blocked Jiang Li behind him, with an impeccable smile on his face: "Look at how drunk Hero Qin is, how can he be so drunk?" , even the words are thrown upside down, which is really incomprehensible. Jiang Shaoxia is young, so you are frightened."

Xue Le managed to recover from the shocking scene, and hurried forward, trying to help Qin Zheng up.

Qin Zheng knelt motionless, looked at the person in front of him without blinking, and said, "Qi Zhaoxi, I know it's you, and you know what I'm talking about! There's no one else here, I've already made it clear, you Who else do you want to play for?"

"..." Qi Zhaoxi slowly suppressed her smile, but she was not in a hurry to answer.

Qin Zheng didn't have such patience, and immediately confessed: "I, Qin Zheng, can swear to the sky that I never intend to blackmail you with this. I just want to ask you to save Chang Feng. In exchange, whether it is full of wealth or As long as I can give you the skill of wandering dragon marksmanship, you can take it!"

Before Qi Zhaoxi could speak, Jiang Li came out from behind him, facing Qin Zheng and said, "I can't save Chen Changfeng."

"Yes, I know you won't trust me easily, tell me, what exactly do I need to do before you make a move?"

"If you don't ask me, I can't save anyone." Jiang Li said.

Qin Zheng pointed to Qi Zhaoxi: "But you really brought him back from the dead, half the world can prove that he was burned to death!"

At this point, Xue Le couldn't help but interjected: "Hero Qin, those people just saw the charred corpse, and the situation was chaotic at that time. They believed it after hearing what people said, but they couldn't believe that the corpse was him. I will tell you frankly that Qi Zhaoxi is not dead at all."

"No, no, you don't want to lie to me." Qin Zheng shook his head stubbornly, "It doesn't make sense at all. Why would a dead body appear to pretend to be him for no reason? Since he is alive, why can't he be seen, let alone the two of you at that time?" I buried the corpse with my own hands, can't even you guys be able to tell the truth from the fake?"

Xue Le was speechless.

"It's useless to tell such a lie, and now the whole world knows it well." Qin Zheng said, "It must be the "Secret of Longevity". Only the "Secret of Longevity" can bring people back to life!"

"But why are you so sure that the "Secret of Longevity" is in Jiang Li's hands?" Qi Zhaoxi asked suddenly, "Just because he is my apprentice?"

Qin Zheng shook his head again, and his eyes stuck to Jiang Li again: "Jiang Shaoxia doesn't know something. It's not that no one knows that you stole the body that night. The night watchman in Biezhuang saw it from a distance, and he recognized you immediately. body shape."

Jiang Li frowned: "That's not me."

"It's not important, I just want Changfeng to be alive!" Qin Zheng didn't want to argue endlessly about the truth, he watched Jiang Li earnestly, wishing he could cut his heart open and try his best to impress Jiang Li , "Jiang Li, have you ever been in pain? What did you feel when you looked at Qi Zhaoxi's body? If you have experienced that feeling, you should understand my state of mind at this moment."

Jiang Li's peaceful eyes suddenly became turbulent, as if thinking of something, but he pressed his lips even tighter, without saying a word.

Qi Zhaoxi couldn't help but hold Jiang Li's hand hanging by his side. Jiang Li turned his head to look at him, and he realized that his mind was blank and he hadn't come up with suitable words yet, so he held it tight with a guilty conscience, and let him Warm palms against cool fingertips.

Jiang Li didn't move, he let the warmth convey, and looked back at Qin Zheng who was anxiously waiting for him to speak.However, Xue Le took the first step, taking advantage of Qin Zheng's negligence and unpreparedness, he was forced to stand up, with a rare and rude gesture, and then greeted towards the door without waiting for Qin Zheng's reaction: "Mrs. Chen, why are you here?"

Qin Zheng turned around abruptly, and he really saw Ye Xinghe standing by the door.

"I came here to say goodbye before I left. I heard from the maid that the eldest brother is here, and you are all here too." Ye Xinghe walked in slowly, trying to ignore the strange atmosphere in the hall, "The second uncle and younger brother have arrived at home. Help me and Changfeng pack our bags, and we will leave for our hometown today. I am grateful for your care and care over the past few days."

"Are you leaving now?" Xue Le didn't expect it.

"En." Ye Xinghe just nodded, Qin Zheng grabbed her arm almost out of composure, and said in a panic: "Sister and sister, wait a little longer, give me some time, there will be a solution soon, we It will definitely save Changfeng..."

Just at this moment, a servant rushed in from the outside in shock, and shouted: "Master, go and see, Daxia Chen is awake! But, but that looks very strange..."

The sudden thud was like a thunderbolt, and before the servant could finish speaking, Ye Xinghe picked up his dress and ran back. Qin Zheng didn't react for a moment, he couldn't care about other people when he saw this, and hurriedly chased after him.The remaining three, Qi Zhaoxi, Jiang Li, and Xue Le looked at each other in astonishment, and then followed out the door.

"Wait," before taking two steps, Qi Zhaoxi suddenly stopped the two of them, "Listen carefully."

Jiang Li and Xue Le stood in the courtyard and listened attentively.

"Ding--"

Faint, long and crisp, like the sound of a bell.

Jiang Li keenly judged the direction of the sound source. Out of a strange and strong intuition, he jumped onto the high wall and followed the sound after leaving a sentence: "Leave it to me over there."

Qi Zhaoxi and Xue Le didn't delay, and continued to go to the opposite courtyard, but unexpectedly passed through the moon cave door, and saw Chen Changfeng walking out of the door slowly, step by step.

Ye Xinghe, who was more shocked than them, stood in the courtyard and couldn't move anymore. He just stared at him stupidly, covered his mouth and burst into tears, while Qin Zheng was overjoyed, and quickly went up to him, calling his name, She opened her arms to hug him firmly.

However, the moment Qin Zheng touched Chen Changfeng's shoulder, Chen Changfeng suddenly moved, bent his palms into claws, and hit his heart directly.Qin Zheng was unprepared, and the sharp pain in his heart forced him to retreat quickly under his instinctive reaction. He staggered and knelt down on the ground, cold sweat burst out from his forehead, he gritted his teeth and looked down, the cloth on his chest slowly seeped Five points of blood.

Ye Xinghe screamed out in shock, and immediately rushed forward to grab Chen Changfeng's arm: "Changfeng, what are you doing! Don't you recognize big brother! You..."

Chen Changfeng struggled hard, and she was swept to the ground like a fallen leaf.

"Chen Changfeng, you bastard! You don't even recognize me!" Ye Xinghe pulled himself up from the ground, staring at him in disbelief. She has always been protected and cared for since she was a child, and she has never fallen so hard.

"Xinghe run away! Changfeng has lost his sanity, he will kill us!" Two people struggled to get up in the room and shouted at her, a middle-aged man and a young man, obviously the two men she mentioned. Uncle and younger brother, both of them had blood overflowing from their mouths and noses.

"How come..." Ye Xinghe tremblingly said, "Chang Feng, look at me, I am your childhood sweetheart, I am your wife!"

But Chen Changfeng didn't respond at all, he took a step forward, and once again poked towards her with his fingers and claws.

When there was no time left, a cyan figure rushed towards her, drew his sword and stood in front of her, and when the iron sword collided with the palm of his flesh, there was a clang, like a sharp strike of gold and stone.Xue Le was startled suddenly, the touch from the sword didn't feel like a flesh and blood body at all, it was firm and rigid, as if Chen Changfeng's body had formed into blocks of stubborn stones.

Xue Le knew something was wrong, so he no longer faced head-on confrontation, and stretched out his hand to hold Ye Xinghe and flew back.

"Ding--"

Another bell rang in the distance.

Chen Changfeng then chased after Xue Le, this time the speed was not slow, so it was obvious that his limbs were stiff, and even his movements were slightly twisted, as if he couldn't control this long-sleeping body well.

And Xue Le wanted to protect Ye Xinghe, while swinging his sword to deal with the pursuit, his figure couldn't be much faster, not to mention that this other courtyard is not big, there is not much room for him to move and dodge.Seeing that Chen Changfeng was approaching, Xue Le was about to ask for help, when a hand suddenly stretched out from the sideways and firmly grasped Chen Changfeng's shoulder, using his forward strength to twist around, dragged Chen Changfeng to the side, fell heavily on the ground.

Qi Zhaoxi then leaned over and pinched Chen Changfeng's chin, and lifted his face for a closer look, only to see that the pupils in the opened eyes were loose, which is the characteristic of the deceased: "It's strange, is this the so-called human body?" insanity?"

As if in response to his words, the bell rang again, but more urgently and urgently.

"Ding--"

"Ding--"

Chen Changfeng rushed towards him, Qi Zhaoxi reacted quickly and dodged, drew his sword out of its sheath, and stabbed Chen Changfeng's chest, who turned back and rushed again.Unexpectedly, Chen Changfeng raised his elbow to block, relying on his hard body to block the attack for a while, then pressed his palm on the sword body and pushed it down, striking Qi Zhaoxi's waist and abdomen with a vertical palm!

Qi Zhaoxi immediately dodged sideways, and couldn't help being surprised, because Chen Changfeng used his palm as a blade to make a sword move.

It seems that although the person is dead, the martial arts moves are still deeply engraved in the body, and they can still be used by Human Gu.

Qi Zhaoxi had no choice but to get serious, pulled a sword flower and made a false move, thus taking advantage of the gap to force Chen Changfeng in front of him. After the internal force was concentrated on the sword, the blue arc flashed and cut his throat open. Tube.

But not a drop of blood spilled, only a heart-piercing exclamation was aroused.

"Don't!" Ye Xinghe tried his best to break free from Xue Le's hand, but was stopped tightly the next moment. She couldn't get close, so she could only watch and shout, "No, please! I beg you, I'll wait for you!" After waiting for so long, after waiting for so long, Changfeng just woke up, please don't kill him!"

Ye Xinghe still refused to be reconciled, refused to accept his fate, and shouted hoarsely at Chen Changfeng: "Changfeng, wake up! Quickly wake up! Take a look at me, I beg you, I have known you for a whole lifetime, you How dare you forget me..."

She burst into tears.

Changfeng and Xinghe, it seems that the marriage of the two families was decided early, and even the name was agreed.In the chaos of sword light, Qi Zhaoxi understood the girl's real questioning:

I have loved you all my life, how dare you forget me?

Qi Zhaoxi didn't know if the Human Gu could hear voices, but Chen Changfeng did not respond. The soul that had been tied to her for a lifetime had already been annihilated, and the remaining walking corpse only knew how to fight with Qi Zhaoxi and put him to death. .

Ye Xinghe was crying so hard that he couldn't stand until he relied on Xue Le's support. Xue Le stopped her firmly with his arms crossed, but his gesture was like a hug. He also had a sad face, and forgot to change his address: "Ye Xinghe Girl, you have to see clearly, that's not him anymore."

"Xue Le," Qi Zhaoxi said suddenly, "hold her head steady, don't let her turn her head."

Saying that, Qi Zhaoxi lifted his sword and pierced through the defense of Chen Changfeng's crossed arms, and the other hand grabbed his wrist as quickly as electricity, turned around behind him, and pulled his wrist together with his arm together with more force. He twisted and restrained for a while, and then the long sword lay across his chest: "Mrs. Chen, do you still remember the heartbeat you said earlier, don't close your eyes, see clearly."

Xue Le suddenly realized what he meant, hesitated for a moment, and finally said "offended", and reached out to stabilize Ye Xinghe's head.

Panic crept into her heart in an instant, Ye Xinghe subconsciously wanted to turn her face away, but was forced to face it directly, she wanted to close her eyes to escape, but as if bewitched by that sentence, she stared blankly at the sword blade cutting Chen Changfeng's body On the chest, a jet-black streak emerged slowly, it wasn't blood, but Gu worms wriggling out of the body.

The heartbeat that pinned the meager hope was originally the sound of Gu worms raging and multiplying in this empty shell.

Xue Le heard a desperate cry, and Ye Xinghe finally fainted uncontrollably.

Qin Zheng, who witnessed everything on the other side, was also stunned: "It turns out... Chang Feng is really gone..."

The Gu worm came out of the crack in its chest and fell to the ground. It was crushed by one foot, and Chen Changfeng struggled to knock Qi Zhaoxi away.It felt like being hit by a heavy stone in the heart, which made Qi Zhaoxi feel tight in his chest, and couldn't help coughing.

Chen Changfeng stood on the spot, shaking for no reason. There were several sword wounds scattered on his body, but there were no bloodstains. Those wounds looked black, as if they were empty inside. He was like a broken puppet statue, but it was still moving. I don't know how to "kill" him completely.

"Ding--"

Tirelessly, Chen Changfeng pounced on Qi Zhaoxi again.

Qin Zheng turned his head and looked around, but he couldn't see where the sound of the bell came from, but a figure suddenly appeared in the distance.

I saw Jiang Lifei stepping across the eaves, leaping high in front of the tallest sycamore tree in the mansion, turning around and slashing across with his sword. The figure, the man was holding a golden bell in his hand, shining brightly in the sunlight.

Yi Buzhi landed steadily on the nearby eaves, stuffed the golden bell back into his arms, locked his eyes on Jiang Li who was facing him, and sneered on his lips: "It's you again. I was lucky enough to pick it up last time." If you die, why don't you learn to hide from me?"

"I said I would kill you," Jiang Li said.After recognizing the person who came, he deliberately went back to the room and took the Qingshuang Sword. Now the sharp sword was buzzing and trembling in his hand, as if he was very excited because he noticed this fierce battle.

Yi Buzhi glanced at the sword in his hand, still disdainful, and stamped his palm with majestic murderous aura towards him like a black cloud.Jiang Li didn't dodge or dodge, he waved his sword to meet him, and the sword energy rushed up like a river.

The branches and leaves on the sycamore tree shook again.

Qin Zheng opened his eyes wide and saw that there was a young man standing on the tree. He vaguely remembered that his surname was Yin. The other party suddenly looked at him, smiled, and jumped down from the tree.

Qin Zheng's eyes tightened, and he recognized the courtyard where he fell, and immediately stood up with the constant pain in his heart, no longer caring about Qi Zhaoxi and the others who were fighting fiercely, and ran towards the courtyard: "Ma'am—!"
