Chapter 66 sixty six

"As expected." Murong Xiu exhaled lightly, with an unpredictable smile, "As expected." "That's what it is!" Xijing suddenly turned around and shouted angrily, "What do you know!" "Calm down, calm down, I don't mean to be disrespectful to the sword master," Murong Xiu restrained his smile, and quickly comforted Kongsang's sword master, "I'm just guessing Po Jun's heart - I think this guess has been verified, It’s just more certain about the next plan.” Xijing restrained her emotions, gradually calmed down, and stopped talking.However, his eyes fell on the piece of paper, and his face still couldn't help but sink—at that moment, he suddenly remembered the life-and-death battle with that fellow student in Taoyuan County, and the moment before the spirit of his master that Baiying told him. one side.

Murong Xiu was indeed right, that smart businessman had correctly guessed the answer before seeing this piece of paper. "Don't look at it." Murong Xiu stretched out his hand and tore off the piece of paper, "Let's go." "Come on," Yinger, who was walking in front, suddenly stopped, and turned around and said, "here!" The last door leads to the deepest part of the tomb.There is a slight sound of water flowing inside, as if a cold spring is gushing from the ground.Yinger stuck to the torch and stood by the water with respectful eyes, looking at the person sitting quietly in the middle of the water.

A woman in white was sleeping quietly in the dark ancient spring.The ancient tomb was silent, and she seemed to have just fallen asleep in a wheelchair. Her long hair hung straight to the water, her face was peaceful and serene, and there was a faint smile on her lips, making it difficult to look up.The flames danced on the water waves, like thousands of fireworks, reflecting the woman in white in the center of the cold spring like a dream—even Murong Xiu, who was full of scheming, was stunned by such a scene for a moment, and he didn't dare to breathe loudly. Xijing pressed the hilt of his sword between his eyebrows, and knelt down slowly: "Master."

While he was kneeling, Yinger raised his right hand to hold his heart, and knelt down on one knee by the water, bowing his head deeply, and at that moment, he felt an unprecedented peace in his heart. "Master, this disciple is so disrespectful that he came here today to disturb your peaceful sleep." Xijing knelt down by the water and prayed in a low voice, "Please understand the difficulties of the disciple in the spirit of heaven, and forgive the offense." In the depths of the silent stone tomb, the woman in the middle of the water is still peaceful and serene.Xijing knelt for a long time, but she was still unwilling to get up to disturb her—but the sky was getting brighter outside, and the long night was about to pass, and she had no choice but to do so.

Without thinking about it, Kongsang, the contemporary sword master, stood up and waded away. A step away from the wheelchair, Xijing saluted respectfully, then bent down, and picked up Master's body together with the wheelchair. His hands were heavy, not like a body of flesh and blood, but like a jade statue. Yinger watched him move up the body of the previous sword master from the water's edge, bent down respectfully, and spread out a huge soft blanket with golden camel hair one inch long, used by treasure robbers Used to collect the most precious treasures. "Hey, what is this?" Murong Xiu was slightly surprised when he saw something on the skirt of the jade statue.

It was a blue fox with old and withered fur, lying quietly on the knee of the jade statue, it had been dead for a long time.The three of them didn't know where the fox came from in this sealed ancient tomb, and subconsciously wanted to take it away, but found that although the blue fox had died of starvation, its paws that had turned into bones were still clinging tightly to it. It touched Mu Yan's wrist, but he couldn't pull it away. "Forget it," Xijing sighed, "Just take it away like this." He turned his head and took one last look at the dark and closed ancient tomb, imagining how Master Mu Yan spent the last period of his life, and his heart still couldn't stop shaking, he couldn't think any more, and turned away abruptly head away.

Seeing the young master and Xijing and his party bring out something wrapped in camel's hair from the depths of the ancient tomb, Uncle Jiu couldn't help but be surprised, but remembered Yinger's previous instructions, so he didn't ask any questions after all. "Leave from the tunnel immediately. I have arranged for people to respond by Chishui." Yinger turned to look at Mo Li. stay!" "What? What happened?" Mo Li was taken aback - a few months ago, the Treasure Thief's army entered the empty city, and they fought against the Po army with the Cangliu army led by Fei Lian. All of a sudden, they retreated as soon as they said they would withdraw, without even saying hello.

"Don't ask why!" Ingel's tone turned severe, "Go right away! Otherwise it will be too late!" "Yes!" Li Li was shocked, and immediately bowed his head to accept the order, and left quickly. "Young master, it's already too late, isn't it?" Murong Xiu sighed slightly after the tall treasure thief from the Western Wilderness left, "Fei Lian should have already started to take action to wipe out the treasure thief in the empty city— — When something like this happens, you must always give an explanation to your clansmen; even if you want to act like a trick, you must have a real chase, otherwise the imperial capital will not believe this news."

"Shut up!" Yinger turned pale, irritated by the Zhongzhou businessman's tone of disregard for life and death.However, Murong Xiu is serious: "Young master, calm down, you must know that there are always gains and losses in everything - the blood of a treasure thief will never be shed in vain." "Let's go!" Xijing sighed, not wanting to hear any more. A group of people lifted up the jade statue wrapped in a blanket, and left quietly from the tunnel - at the far exit, there was already a carriage waiting in the night. palace. The shocking project known as "Twilight of the Gods" in later generations was officially launched.

――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――― In the middle of the night, Lang Lang was ordered to come to the empty city, and found that Fei Lian was still waiting for him in the army. "What's so urgent?" Lang Lang stepped into the tent and saw that the lights inside were brightly lit, and several generals including Wei Mo and Qing Luo had arrived. Have this kind of emergency meeting in the middle of the night again? It’s really unreasonable to neglect Mingmo within a few days of being newlyweds?” "Lang Lang, something serious has happened!" Fei Lian raised his head abruptly, with no sense of humor on his face, "I just received a secret report that the group of treasure robbers from the Western Wilderness didn't really come to help us fight against the enemy! There is a conspiracy, and they are still colluding with the rebels in the imperial capital in private."
