Emerald Unicorn in Plum Garden

Opening her tired eyes, she moved back and forth vaguely, as if hearing a familiar call, she looked sideways.It was indeed Zhong Qi who was calling: "Ruan Er, you are awake." Seeing him smiling, Ruan Er reached out and stroked his cheek: "We, are we still alive?" Zhong Qi nodded heavily: "Well, yes The Daoist saved us."

The Taoist who stood aside came: "Miss Su, it's been a long time." Ruan'er called out weakly, "Master Shang." Seeing that she was about to sit up, Zhong Qi reached out to help her: "Ruan'er, you have been in a coma for a day and a night. , let’s eat something first and then talk to us.” Ruan Er replied softly: “Well, good.”

After she sat down firmly, Zhong Qi let go and fetched a small bundle by the stone wall. After opening it, besides dry food, there was a hibiscus-colored dress inside.Ruan'er, who took the steamed bun, asked inadvertently, "Hey, whose clothes are these?" Before Zhongqi could speak, the Taoist said, "Who else could it be? Of course it's yours."

Ruan'er looked at Zhongqi with questioning eyes, and he replied: "I wanted to wait until you finished eating, but this Taoist is really fast." After running for dozens of miles on the mountain road, I finally found a market to buy it for you. When he saw that the piece on your body was stained with blood, he..."

Zhong Qi directly covered his mouth: "Okay, alright, Taoist priest, can I apologize to you? Can you let Ruan'er eat well?" Seeing that Taoist priest kept his mouth shut, he withdrew his hand.While Ruan'er lowered her head and gnawed on the steamed buns, a sweet and growing smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.

The sun was shining more and more worryingly, the brothers of the Liang family who had rushed back to Qi's Manor all the way were already in the hall at this moment.Young Master Liang patted the table and asked, "Batong, what's going on? Why do so many people from the imperial court know about the emerald unicorn?"

Chen Batong, who did not expect him to return, seemed a bit caught off guard: "My lord, I have been recuperating in Qi's Village for many days, and I don't even know how this news got out."

The second young master thought for a while and said, "Brother, since the news about Qilin has been spread, the fact that Han Zhongqi is still alive must no longer be a secret. Right now, the most important thing is that both sides are very difficult. Either we can catch Yi Old man, or catch Han Zhongqi. We have to find a way to bring these two people together."

Young Master Liang took a few steps: "The one surnamed Han is on the way to Meiyuan, and Yi Sou is missing. How can we make them meet?" The two fell into deep thought, and the eldest son deliberately squinted at Chen Batong, planning to With his heart on his mind, he whispered something in the ear of Second Young Master Liang.

Hearing a sigh of admiration: "It really is a lotus that comes out of clear water, and it is natural to carve. Young Xia Han, what do you think?" Zhong Qi, who was staring at Ruan'er intently, said: "Ruan'er, are you satisfied with this dress?" The Taoist shook his head: "It's an extra question." Ruan'er lowered her head and smiled softly.

Zhongqi pointed to the Taoist priest, and then turned his gaze back: "Ruan Er, there is something, I don't know if you noticed it?" Ruan Er raised her head and smiled knowingly: "Do you want to say that our whereabouts along the way have been exposed?" Is that too obvious?" Zhong Qi nodded and said, "That's right, since we went to Qijiazhuang, no matter where we go, there will be people chasing us all the way, which is too strange."

The Taoist priest couldn't help but said: "From what you say, it seems that someone is watching you?" The two looked sideways at the Taoist priest at the same time: "Yeah." At this point, a voice came from outside the cave door: "Brother Han, Miss Su, are you inside?"

Hearing the sound, he knew it was Du Ruoning, and when the figure appeared, the two people met.Du Ruoning's face was full of joy: "I finally found you." After a few pleasantries, Zhong Qi thought of Li Mao in his heart, and asked, "Why are you alone? Where are the three of Li Mao?" Du Ruoning broke up. After being chased, the four were forced to disperse.

Ruan'er's eyes were full of worry: "Brother Zhongqi, let's go on the road to find her." Zhongqi refused: "No, I think it's better to wait for you to recover before going on the road." Ruan'er did not show weakness: "Brother Zhongqi , Li Mao fell off the cliff, even though the cliff is not very high, there is still a high possibility of accidents. Now she is a young lady who can't lift her hands or shoulders."

Seeing that Zhongqi had not wavered, Ruan Er persuaded again and again: "My body really doesn't matter. If you are worried, how about asking the Taoist priest to go with you?" Zhongqi glanced at the Taoist priest, and he nodded slightly: "The poor Taoist Now I can be said to be in the same boat with the two of you, and if I offend those eagles and birds in the villa, I'm afraid I won't be able to run away even if I want to."

Seeing this, Ruan'er encouraged her again: "Brother Zhongqi, you must have her safety in mind, right?" Zhongqi let out a sigh of relief: "Okay, but you have to promise me that you won't be like before. That's a rash way to fight with others." Ruan'er smiled: "Well, I promise you."

Du Ruoning's eyes moved back and forth: "It's just that we still have to rush to Meiyuan. I believe that Tianjiu and Mr. Tang will also go to Meiyuan when they find her. Why don't we meet in Meiyuan?"

Zhong Qi cast his eyes and said: "I haven't found it, and we have no news at all. Ruan'er told me that the time to arrive at Meiyuan is the eighth day of the next month, which is still very early. What's more, what's more, the chaos in the world has nothing to do with us people." What? I figured it out anyway, Qilin is in Yisou's hands now, whoever wants to go find him." Du Ruoning was speechless, and the four of them set off on their way to find Li Mao.

As for the three of them, Li Mao was naturally on their way to the Plum Garden.Li Mao, who had been holding back for a whole day and night and didn't say much, couldn't help but open his mouth at this moment: "I'm exhausted, I said, you two, do you have any water? It's done, I wish I could take off this clothes."

The two stopped and watched her sitting on the ground like a man, fanning the wind with her sleeves.Tang Mengku stepped forward and asked, "Miss Li, didn't you stop letting people say the word 'tired' yesterday?" She breathed out again: "Yesterday was yesterday, you two big men, can I trouble you to get something to eat?" Can you drink?"

Tang Mengku looked back at He Tianjiu, he shrugged: "I'll see if I can catch any game, you go find water." Then, he took off the water bag from his waist and threw it into his arms, and the two divided the work and go.Li Mao looked up and complained, "What the hell is going on? Since I came here, I either tried to escape from Li's house or escaped for my life. Brother, Feng Tang, where are you?"

A loud slap across the face: "Bastard, I asked you to arrest someone, but you came back by yourself." The man covered his face: "Director Wei, I fell with that woman, and I don't think she did anything. As if you know, just ignore her." Another slap in the face: "Don't care about her? You came back drunk in the middle of the night last night to brag about the cloud and rain in Wushan under the cliff, and you said you didn't care about her?"

When Director Wei said something, everyone tilted their heads to laugh; some covered their mouths and laughed secretly;The beaten man covering his cheeks didn't dare to refute. Director Wei pointed at him: "If someone hadn't told me just now, I thought you would have died outside. What's the use of keeping things like you, I just know Playing with women is a big mistake." After saying that, he drew his sword and placed it around his neck.

The man was so frightened that he fell to his knees: "Director, don't, I'll go get her back right away. Please give me a chance to make up for my crimes. Please, Director Wei." A brother stepped forward to dissuade her: "Director Wei, I think I'll let him go this time." Director Wei heaved a sigh of relief and put away his sword: "Okay, you can bring him back before the sun goes down tomorrow."

He stood up, turned around and left, Old Beard Wei called him: "Wait a minute." He turned around and said, "Director, what else is there?" Supervisor Wei waved his hand: "You guys, go with him. Just in case." At this point, six or seven people left together.The man who just dissuaded him said: "Director, what should we do here?"

Director Wei thought quietly: "We have to hold back the people from Wood Eagle Villa. That little girl surnamed Yu is not easy to deal with. However, for the time being, she has to take care of her brother's injury. It is best to take advantage of this time." The chance. But he happened to kill the Uncommon Taoist halfway, he really knows how to choose the time."

The man's eyes rolled: "Director, I think it's better to take this opportunity to get rid of the little girl surnamed Yu. His younger brother was injured by Tianmai magic, and it can't be cured in three or two days." Director Wei rubbed his hands Nodding, looking sideways at the man beside him, he nodded and laughed.

The time of this day passed by in a hurry.After practicing Kung Fu, Feng Tang and Qiu Shuang were preparing to eat. Feng Tang stirred the snake meat in the stone pot: "Master, where did you get this stone pot?" There is a high stream in the south, I found it there when I was looking for water to drink, it looks like a pot that has been washed by water for many years."

Qiu Shuang stuffed a piece of firewood: "Master Lian, is there anything else that can be eaten there? For example, fish or something like that." The old owner Lian smiled knowingly: "I'm afraid you will be disappointed, this valley is covered by foreigners. People call it Bloodless Valley. The reason is that there are poisonous snakes all over here, and they live by eating blood. How many fish do you think there will be in that high stream? You forgot, once you and Feng Tang entered the valley, why were there so many snakes surrounding it? coming after you? Because they smell the blood on you."

As Qiushuang said, the hairs all over her body stood on end: "Then you will have to rely on these snake meat in the future, don't want it." Feng Tang put his hands on her shoulders: "It's okay, you won't be afraid if you get used to it. "Qiu Shuang bit her lower lip lightly: "It's still hard to accept." Not long after, the three of them sat around and had dinner.

Even the old owner who picked up the chopsticks went to pick up the snake meat, but two fingers were stiff, and he couldn't flexibly use the wooden chopsticks in his hands.Putting down the wooden chopsticks, he sighed heavily.Feng Tang asked with concern: "Master, what's the matter?" He looked at the raised right hand: "I'm afraid time is running out." Feng Tang's eyes were startled: "Why? Master."

He still looked at the palm of his hand: "The residual poison in my body has not been cleared. In the past ten days or so, my right half of my body has also started to become stiff, and my right leg has lost feeling. This is why I have been sitting here. I believe that within a few days, I will Your hand will also...." At this point, he raised his head and walked away: "Feng Tang, sit here and turn your back to me."

Knowing his intention, Feng Tang called out softly: "Master, is there really no other way?" He slowly shook his head: "There is no such possibility anymore, it is my great honor to survive these few months. You are so lucky. I never expected to meet you two before I passed away. Sit down quickly, and I will pass on all my skills to you when my right hand can still move."
