smile to heart

======================

A day has passed, and no one cares about Qinghan Cave.

Qi Zhong was so bored waiting, he was in a restless mood, and fell asleep these few days, always sleeping lightly and restlessly, as if there was something on his mind that he couldn't let go of.He was very eager to go out and have a look, and wanted to find someone to catch up with.After all, his time may be numbered.

Depressed for a while, his eyes fell on a weak area, which seemed to reveal wisps of external light.Qi Zhong held the sword in his hand and walked closer to observe.With a light poke with the end of the scabbard, the thin ice shattered, and a lot of sunlight flooded into a hole that only accommodated one person.

Qi Zhong was overwhelmed with surprise, and continued digging the small hole, thinking that some disobedient disciple in the past, who was imprisoned here and dug out of boredom, now gave him a helping hand.

With three strokes and two strokes, he escaped from the Qinghan Cave in this twisted way.In order to avoid being discovered by Lin Tang again, he deliberately changed into the clothes of the new disciples, and covered his face, and wandered around the master's gate, but no one recognized him.

With his hands behind his back, he walked around, but he didn't see anything unusual outside.Qi finally felt relieved.

At this time, the gossip conversation between the two people on the side of the road came into his ears.

"Hey, have you heard? Mr. Mu Yun has been visiting Kuocang Mountain for several days to save those twelve children..."

"As a guest? Is it a fun place for you to be that devil's dungeon? Wherever you go, you will end up dead."

"Oh, I know... But he is really stupid. A good Immortal Venerable is not the heir apparent, so he ran to do this unprofitable business. I don't know if Liuzhen Immortal will choose another person to succeed you..."

"Tsk. The devil is really cunning, using such low-level tricks. It's a pity that Mr. Mu Yun is also considered a leader in the fairy forest. It's a pity to lose such a talent..."

"...Hey, don't talk about it. Master Lin said that you are not allowed to mention this..."

"Uh, yes, yes, don't talk about it. Isn't that person still imprisoned in Qinghan Cave? Probably because he is afraid of him..."

The day is sunny, but at this moment the sky is spinning and the earth is dark, mountains and rivers are flowing like water in his eyes, everything is upside down and chaotic, after gritting his teeth and listening to those words, Qi Zhong suddenly felt helpless, clutching his heart, unable to lean against the back of the stone pillar, the buzzing.

It turned out that something really happened!The uneasiness in his heart had come true.

There is no such thing as a quiet time, it is the vitality gained by someone dying alone.

"Kuocang Mountain, go to Kuocang Mountain..."

Quickly forcing himself to calm down, Qi Zhong didn't care and rushed to the devil to save people.

A voice shouted from behind: "Hey, newcomer, where are you going? You are going to the school to practice swords."

Touching his head, the man said strangely, mistook Qi Zhong for the new junior brother.

……

In the dark dungeon, Mu Yun was sitting upright, contemplating enlightenment, when he suddenly heard the sound of a lock being unlocked, followed by the sound of a fan being shaken.

With a smile on his face, Luo Qingchen pushed open the cell door modestly, spread tea on the low table, and after sitting down, raised his hand as a gesture of invitation.

Mu Yun understood what he meant, and sat upright across from him.

"Taste the scent of this scented tea, see if it has your cousin's craftsmanship." Luo Qingchen handed him a cup.

Mu Yun frowned faintly, raised his hand to refuse, and said indifferently: "Nothing."

"Heh, I haven't tried it before, why are you so decisive?"

"You are not worthy of making this tea."

Hearing the sound, there was a moment of silence, Luo Qingchen snorted with anger in his eyes, and put down the teacup heavily, the tea splashed out, and the osmanthus flowers sprinkled on the corner of the wooden table.

"How unworthy?" He sneered, and then sarcastically said, "I've known him for many years, it's your turn to judge?"

Mu Yun refused to give in, and withdrew his usual gentleness, and said coldly: "You deceived him, even used him. Even the smell of tea can't cover up the depravity of your conscience."

"Hahaha... You are a gentleman, you can say whatever you want, a villain like me deserves to be scolded."

"What's the big gift today?" Mu Yun didn't bother to talk nonsense with him, so he asked straightforwardly.

Luo Qingchen also knew that the ideas were different, and it was difficult to agree, so he quickly took out the poison, put it on the table, and said in a relaxed tone, "God ordered me to take your life within three days."

"I thought about it and decided to let you die with dignity. How about giving you this bottle of poison?"

Mu Yun picked up the medicine bottle, took a closer look, smelt the smell of the medicine, and immediately understood what poison it was, and said slowly: "Sanghun powder, once taken, the soul will be separated in a short time, coupled with a special formation, it can make people take poison Those whose body and soul are all destroyed, will never have an afterlife...there is only one pill in the world, and you can be regarded as an outstanding person in the Jianghu if you can get this medicine."

Luo Qingchen raised his eyebrows, accepted this "compliment", and said, "So you..."

"Although I have become a prisoner, it does not mean that I am willing to die. I refuse this medicine."

"Do you think you have the right to refuse now?"

"If not, why did you ask?"

"Ha! Your ability to observe words and expressions is not bad."

Luo Qingchen smiled brightly: "I really want you to take this poison willingly, so that I won't have a drop of your blood on my hands..."

He whispered: "Your cousin will never blame me."

"You!" Mu Yun clenched his fists angrily and pursed his lips tightly.

Luo Qingchen was in a good mood, got up and was about to leave, when a guard came to report in a hurry: "Vice Hierarch, God ordered you to go to the main hall quickly."

"Do you know why you are so flustered?" He casually straightened his clothes and asked in detail in front of Mu Yun.

The guard said: "I heard that the Envoy Yanluo Star caught a spy of Zhengdao at the foot of the mountain."

"Huh? There are such bold people. It seems that Liuzhen's subordinates are also courageous and talented. It's a pity that they are brave but not resourceful. It's a death penalty for trespassing on Kuo Cangshan."

Flicking his sleeves, Luo Qingchen let out a long sigh and strode away.

After listening to the conversation between the two, Mu Yun frowned, faintly worried, hoping that the man did not fall into danger because of him.

……

Arriving at the main hall of the underground palace, everyone had already sat down safely. Luo Qingchen took a quick look and saw a masked black-clothed swordsman standing in the hall, tightly tied up with ropes, he couldn't help but clicked his tongue, thinking he was an idiot.

"Come here, take off his mask." Li Yuanxie ordered.

Everyone's eyes were fixed on him, curious and full of a gesture of watching the show.

Fang Yanxiao frowned slightly. For some reason, the eyes of the man in black kept staring at her coldly, as if full of resentment and dissatisfaction.

Luo Qingchen leaned lightly on the back seat, lazily propped up his hands, and glanced at the man.Until the black face was lifted off, a clear and unruly face shocked the two of them.

"Brother Qi..." Fang Yanxiao was the first to panic, almost lost her mind, and wanted to get up and go forward.

Luo Qingchen blocked her secretly, stabilized his mind, faced Qi Zhong's stubborn and hateful eyes, and admitted his identity with his eyes without any concealment.

"This spy, how do you guys want to deal with it?" Li Yuanxie asked suddenly.

Li Yuanxiong, the fourth master, was injured in his wrist and couldn't draw his sword, but he still shouted: "Of course he was killed! This kid is really arrogant. He came up the mountain alone without any accomplices. He really doesn't care about us." .”

"Yeah. Then kill him to vent your hatred, drag it down and behead it, and send the head back to Liuzhen."

Li Yuanxie's tyrannical nature was aroused, and he killed as soon as he said it.

Fang Yanxiao hastily persuaded: "Wait a minute!"

Li Yuanxiong said sarcastically, "Master Fang Yue, you won't ask for mercy again because of the enmity last time, you said you couldn't kill that one last time, but this time you say you can't kill a brat?"

Hearing the last time, Qi Zhong keenly grasped the key words of the words, and guessed that the person they were talking about should be Mu Yun. Knowing that he was still alive, he felt more relaxed.

Staring back coldly, Fang Yanxiao's eyes doubled with murderous intent, she gritted her teeth and said, "This person really cannot be killed now."

The implication is that I want to protect him.

"Huh?" Li Yuanxie snorted dissatisfied.

"Mystery, what Fang Yue said is indeed reasonable. Even if this person is really careful, what is the purpose of his rushing to the mountain in the middle of the night? Could it be a conspiracy deliberately planted by Immortal Liuzhen? Please think again, so as not to be mistaken." fall into their trap..."

Luo Qingchen sat down with a fan and secretly helped.

"I think Envoy Fang Yue also meant the same thing just now, but he was just impatient and didn't finish his words."

"Yes, the gods. People of the righteous way are the most cunning. We were almost fooled several times in Dijiang before. This time there may be deceit. The gods must not fall into their hands."

Fang Yanxiao calmed down and replied cooperatively.

Li Yuanxie was suspicious by nature, and his face was rather hesitant.

"It's better to let me do the torture. As long as we get useful information from him, it won't be too late for us to kill him. The god can rest assured."

Seeing his silence, Luo Qingchen took the initiative to take over the task without hesitation, and completely relieved Li Yuanxie of his troubles.

"Then save his life first, let's go."

……

In the dungeon, it was cold and dark.

Qi Zhong dragged the chain, was led by the jailer, and walked around several tortuous corridors. He looked around carefully, looking for the figure he cared about the most.

Finally, when he was about to reach the end of the dungeon, Qi Zhong suddenly saw a plain figure in blue shirt in his eyes. He couldn't help but shout excitedly, "Brother Yun! Brother Yun! Here I come!"

The voice in the ear woke Mu Yun up from a semi-conscious state, and in the blink of an eye, he saw Qi Zhong who was looking at him in the aisle a few meters away.

He was in a trance for a moment, unconscious, thinking it was a hallucination, pursed his dry lips, and softly shouted: "Xiao Zhong..."

Hearing him call his nickname so intimately, Qi Zhong's heart suddenly turned upside down. Regardless of the pressure from the jailer beside him, he broke free and ran over, reached into the fence, and responded loudly: "It's me, it's me...I'm here to see you. "

As soon as the eyes of the two people met, it was as if they had traveled a long distance through thousands of mountains and rivers, and finally reached the other shore where they met each other.

Mu Yun held those warm hands tightly, and the clear touch was deep in his heart. He was sad and happy: "You, why did you come?"

"I……"

"Go, get in."

The jailer no longer gave the two of them extra chances to talk, and pushed Qi Zhong to let go.

He refused to leave, and said shamelessly, "I, I'm going to this room, you guys lock me up with him."

The jailer became impatient, and raised his whip: "There are so many shits, you think this is your home, and you dare to pick and choose in the prison? Go away, or the whip will hit you."

Afraid that they would anger Qi Zhong, Mu Yun held back his reluctance, and let go of his hand, signaling him not to be brave at this moment.

In the end, the jailer drove him to the next cell, and there was only a wooden fence between the two, allowing them to see each other clearly.

After the surroundings were quiet, Qi Zhong quickly shrank to the corner and echoed the other party: "Brother Yun, Brother Yun..."

Enduring the pain, Mu Yun moved closer, carefully confirming the other person's face, wanting to recognize him, but afraid to recognize him.

Silently, Qi Zhong also looked at his suffering for the past few days, his eyes were calm, and he kept staring at the dried blood stains on Mu Yunsu's clothes, and the traces of whip wounds, which made him feel distressed and furious.

With his clenched palms and joints creaking, he held his anger and gritted his teeth: "How dare they torture you?"

"...No problem, just a small injury."

Mu Yun had no time to take care of himself, but felt sorry for him being reduced to the same level as himself, a little sullen, and asked seriously, "What are you doing here? Do you know how dangerous this place is?"

Qi Zhong lowered his eyes, his eyes were filled with sorrow, and he lowered his head and said powerlessly: "I know, this place is not only dangerous, but also very sad."

Mu Yunlue groaned, and asked tentatively, "Have you... seen them?"

Qi Zhong laughed at himself, full of disappointment: "They all lied to me! How can there be any elder sister? How can there be any senior brother? I am the only one who is stupid and believes everything."

"Maybe sometimes...seeing may not be believing." Mu Yun frowned.

Qi Zhong smiled wryly: "You don't have to comfort me anymore, if you believe in the wrong payment, you can make the wrong payment. From now on, I only trust you, as long as you don't lie to me, anyone can lie to me."

Mu Yun was moved, blinked slightly, still angry at him for acting impulsively, pretended to be displeased and said, "In the future? What are you thinking about in the future?"

Qi Zhong was taken aback, and retorted: "Of course there will be a future. You don't think I came up the mountain because I want to go to the underworld with you, do you?"

"..." Mu Yun pursed his lips, neither admitting nor refuting.

Qi Zhong smiled and said: "Don't worry. I was caught by them on purpose, otherwise how could I see you so soon. When your injury is better, we will find a way to get out!"

go out?

Mu Yun lowered his eyes and thought deeply, thinking whether he can safely protect him now is a difficult problem.

But he restrained his worries and said with a gentle smile: "It's getting late, let's rest first."

"Yeah. With you by my side, I can finally have a good night's sleep."

Qi Zhong obediently agreed, and chattered: "You don't even know, I've been insomnia for the past few days, and I miss you...uh, thinking of the interesting things you traveled with us in Dijiang, I'm so happy that I can't fall asleep..."

Mu Yun glanced back at him lightly from the corner of his eye, and gently persuaded him, "Okay. Then don't think about it, go to sleep."

"Hmm..." Qi Zhong smirked and turned over, blinking his tears of joy.
