Since ancient times, the same door has been out of Xipi

Chapter 12: Fire in Sunrise City

Duan Tong, Qingxiao, Kang Ningjing and the others continued to rush to Xuyang City, and met Hua Yi on the way.

Hua Yi was still wearing the Gebuyi he had when we met yesterday, and was carrying a rough wooden crate on his back. It seemed that he was going to work at his employer's house.

Kang Ningjing rode on the horse, watching Hua Yi walk by contemptuously with a condescending attitude, as if he was not the one who was beaten yesterday and had no power to fight back.

On the way, Kang Ningjing asked Qing Xiao what trouble they encountered that day, and why they appeared in Gujia Village later.

Regarding why Qing Xiao Duan Tong appeared in Gujia Village, Kang Ningjing asked Hua Yi before, but even if Hua Yi was beaten to death, Kang Ningjing did not believe that Hua Yi's answer to him was the truth.

It was Duan Tong who answered Kang Ningjing, "I was caught on the road, and I was careless at the moment." He also gave him a look in his eyes that he would strike if you asked me again, which he directly judged as an expression of embarrassment and anger.

It is normal for people to stumble and horses to stumble.Kang Ningjing didn't think it was a shameful thing to be attacked by someone at all, as long as he saved his life, it would be fine.The old saying is not the same: if you keep the green hills, you don't have to worry about no firewood.

It is precisely because life is paramount that Kang Pingjing did not ask for details, but took what he thought before as facts.

In the next few days, the heavens seemed to finally open their eyes, and nothing bad happened along the way. The only thing that surprised Kang Ningjing was that Duan Tong and Qingxiao only booked one room every time they stayed.

At first, Kang Ning thought that after they were ambushed and fell off the cliff on the road, they learned from the pain and learned martial arts in the same room every night to improve their kung fu.But one night, when Kang Ningjing peeped into their room to steal the teacher, he found that there was nothing in the room except for the sound of regular and long breathing and the sight of Yuanlong placed on the table.

After passing another hill, the surrounding scenery gradually changed to what Kang Ningjing was familiar with. He rode his horse and galloped for tens of meters, took a look from a distance, waved to Qingxiao Duan Tong behind him, and shouted happily, "I know the small town in front of me. If you leave the small town, you can go to Xuyang City in half an hour at most!"

Kang Ning Zhuang was built on the outskirts of Xuyang City, and when they arrived at Xu Yang City, it was like the three of them had stepped into Kang Ning Zhuang with one foot.

"This time, I don't know if Senior Tianji invited other sects?" Qing Xiao asked as he rode up to follow.

"Yes, my senior sister is the world's chosen husband." Before Kang Ningjing left the manor, Kang Ning Manor had sent out many invitations, and after he left the manor, there were probably even more. .”

The grandsons of the master of Mad Saber Sect and the young master of Yanyang Castle are indeed at the age to start a family. Qing Xiao is not surprised to hear that, but it is a bit strange that Kang Ningzhuang invited Piao Miao Pavilion.

The Piaomiao Pavilion is famous for its study of celestial phenomena, divination, knowledge of the past and the present. The current pavilion owner, Shi Lianyan, once had a relationship with Qing Xiao. She is an eighteen-year-old woman.

Moreover, most of the disciples of Piaomiao Pavilion are women, except for the previous pavilion master who was a man, and the current pavilion master Shi Lianyan's little uncle Tan Jue.

But Tan Jue seemed to be only twelve or three years old when he went to Wuming Mountain to compete with Gu Xu three years ago, so he hasn't been crowned three years later. If Qingxiao remembers correctly, Kang Ningjing's two senior sisters should be They are about the same size as Shi Lianyan...

"Qing Xiao, don't you think it's strange?" Kang Ningjing didn't see what Qing Xiao was thinking, instead he asked Qing Xiao, and said, "Where can a man in Piao Miao Pavilion marry my senior sister?"

Duan Tong reminded, "Tan Jue."

Although Tan Jue was a disciple of Piaomiao Pavilion, he also practiced swordsmanship, and his sword was named Liancheng, and there were many famous swordsmen in Jianghu who were defeated by Liancheng's sword.

Gu Xu once had a sword fight with Tan Jue, and Tong was in retreat at that time, so he missed the chance to fight Tan Jue.

Although the result of that competition was Tan Jue's defeat, Zhuo Fengfeng could tell that Gu Xu was being suppressed throughout the whole process.

"Tan Jue?" Kang Ningjing was very surprised, and said firmly, "How is it possible? Impossible!"

Obviously, Kang Ningjing and Tan Jue are very familiar.

"Oh? Why is it impossible?" Qing Xiao discovered that there are always some unknown things that can be tricked out of Kang Ning's place.

Kang Pingjing tried to imitate Duan Tong to push Qingxiao back with his eyes, but ended in failure.

He sneered, "Anyway, he won't like my senior sister, let alone marry any of them." When he used to listen to ditties in Yangzhou brothel and look for fun, when Tan Jue was in the small hall opposite the brothel How can you talk to Duan Tong Qingxiao about this kind of thing?

Furthermore, Tan Jue is so good at Longyang, how could Shi Lianyan not know that even the head of Piaomiao Pavilion turned a blind eye to this and how could it be Kang Ningjing's turn to tell Tan Jue what to do.

Ma Xing had been to the small town, and the three of them didn't stay any longer, and went straight to Xuyang City.

When the sky was completely dark, the three of them walked through a dense forest, and saw the scorching flames burning half of the sky from a distance.

And the place where the fire broke out was in Xuyang City.

From the perspective of Duan Tong Qingxiao and Kang Ningjing, one can only see the thick black smoke wrapped in the tongue of fire. Burning together is more appropriate.

The closer the three of them got, the more they could hear the noise in Xuyang City from the silence, the crying of babies, the chaotic footsteps, and people screaming from time to time.

At this time, the gate of Xuyang City was not closed, and the guards who were supposed to be on both sides of the gate were nowhere to be seen.

At this time, in Kang Ning Manor, there were also people who were awake, watching the fire alone.

Kang Ningjing brushed away the water droplets on the rolled plantain leaves outside the house, his face was not sad or happy, even when the sky above the left suddenly brightened, and he heard a group of people shouting "Xuyang City is on fire, go to the fire!" His expression did not change a bit.

He looked up at the sky, under the cold mask, his eyes reflected the starless night.

After the fire burns to the extreme, it will gradually weaken. No matter how bright the night is, it is not day.

After an unknown amount of time, ashes floated in the wind and landed on the back of Kang Ningling's hand, the remaining warmth faded to ice cold.

There were no footsteps behind Kang Ningling, but Kang Ningling knew who was coming.

"Third owner, half an hour ago, the deputy city lord's mansion in Sunrise City caught fire." Kang Ningzhuang had many eyeliners in Sunset City, and one of them rushed to report.

After Kang Ningling listened, without making a sound, the eyeliner continued, "The ancient deputy city master just returned to Xuyang City this morning, and now he is trapped in the mansion, and his life and death are uncertain."

"Life or death is uncertain?" Kang Ningling glanced at the eyeliner hiding in the dark, bent down and picked the stamen of a flower under the banana leaf, as if he was not very interested in the information provided by the eyeliner.

A scent of flowers gradually filled the air, exuding a strange and intoxicating fragrance.

The whole body of the eyeliner in the dark suddenly started to twitch, blood flowed from the eyes, ears, mouth, and opened his mouth, he could only utter a few intermittent words, "You...you, Kang...!" and died.

Kang Ningwei came out of Kang Ningling's room, kicked the dead body of eyeliner, and said to Kang Ningling, "What does Gu Bai mean by this?"

"Conceited provocation." Kang Ningling got up, "I suggest that my senior sister reject City Lord Ye, and it's better not to get angry."

"Are you actually scared?" Kang Ningwei said sarcastically.

Unexpectedly, Kang Ningling admitted straightforwardly, "There are indeed many idiots in the world, but not everyone is willing to be a idiot, and so am I." After finishing speaking, he walked to the door, stopped again, and added, " Of course, Senior Sister is not me."

Unexpectedly, Kang Ningwei asked suddenly and changed the topic, "When will the hairball come back? If I remember correctly, this should be the longest time it has been away from the village."

"This one should be the best for Senior Sister." Kang Ningling looked at the sky above Xuyang City again, but there was no light at all, as if the horror just now was just a big dream, "Furball, I won't come back again. Ah Jing will wait half an hour You can bring the two young heroes of Qianlong Jianzong back to the manor." Without even explaining the reason to Kang Ningwei, he closed the door.

The most unpredictable thing is the human heart, and the most difficult thing to violate is the will of God.

Kang Ningling stroked the scroll spread out on the table, and a star on the scroll had begun to shift.

"Since you made this choice, you can only blame yourself in the future." Kang Ningling sighed, and she didn't know who she was saying, "Why bother to be an idiot."

The author has something to say:

Dongsheng: Keke, I won’t spoil the story that Mao Qiu was burned to death in that fire!
