The cold wind swirls on the deep stone road, and the voice that appears and disappears from time to time is weird and gloomy, which always makes people who come here for the first time feel chills.The chains on the stone door at the end of the tunnel were removed layer by layer by the sword attendant, and they hit the ground with a loud noise like thunder.After the dust rose and gradually fell, the stone door was slowly pushed open to both sides.

Ye Ying greeted the young people who came out from outside.

This child hasn't changed much from the time he entered Sword Tomb for training half a year ago - the only difference is probably the stains and a few scratches on the gold-embroidered brocade robe, his eyebrows are still delicate and calm, his eyes There seems to be a bay of deep water hidden in it, which is not clean enough and not thorough enough.

Ye Ying could somewhat predict Ye Junqian's situation from Ye Junqian's expression.

Ye Ying turned around, Ye Junqian followed, and followed Ye Ying to leave the sword mound and go to the Tianze Tower in the villa. The master and apprentice were silent all the way until they reached the corridor, Ye Ying stopped and looked sideways. Facing the surface of the lake, he opened his lips and asked, "How's the progress in the past six months of retreat?"

"Although the swordsmanship has improved, there has been no breakthrough." Ye Junqian replied truthfully.

Ye Ying was silent for a moment, and signaled Ye Junqian to go to the side of the railing - as far as Ye Junqian could see, the lake was as calm as a mirror, clearly reflecting her own reflection.Ye Junqian lowered his eyes, and his mirror image also lowered his eyes.Ye Junqian faced the mirror image of himself, clearly it was himself, but for some reason, Ye Junqian felt that it was a stranger.

It seems to be a high wall blocking the way invisibly, that's why I feel this way again and again.Before the retreat, there were also times during the retreat. It was obvious that I practiced quietly, but when I calmed down, what I could feel was the boundless confusion and emptiness.

"Junqian," Ye Ying called out in a low voice.

"Yes."

"Is the lake calm?"

very quiet.At this time, there is no wind, and there are no carp swimming on the water, only lotus leaves adorn the lake, covering a corner of his own reflection.

"You look up and look at the roof of the corridor." Ye Ying reminded.

Ye Junqian was taken aback for a moment, but what he saw when he looked up was the water light constantly floating on the wooden eaves.Although it was only a slight shaking, the waves did not stop for a moment.

The trembling hands clenched into fists, and the thumbs rubbed slowly on the knuckles.

Dazzling white light reflected in his eyes, Ye Junqian understood what Ye Ying meant.At that moment, Ye Junqian finally realized, no, he admitted - in the past six months, over the past year, he has never really gained inner peace for a moment, just not for a moment.Whether awake or in a dream.All the uneasiness and anxiety suppressed in my heart gradually piled up into a mountain, and collapsed at the moment Ye Ying pointed out.

The more he didn't want to admit it, the more clearly he understood the source of all these thoughts and confusion——

Shen Xiao.

The wound that had been deliberately hidden for a long time was gently uncovered, and Ye Junqian's eyes were suddenly clouded.He sighed softly and looked back at Ye Ying.

Ye Ying could feel Ye Junqian's helplessness.The child's state of mind at this time is very chaotic, compared to when he decided to retreat or when he just walked out of the sword mound, it is a hundred times more chaotic, it seems to have returned to the time when he was just sent to the hidden sword villa many years ago The turbulent waves were tossing, and there was no such thing as a solitary boat that could not reach the shore.

"Junqian." Ye Ying stretched out her hand, stroking Ye Junqian's hair as if comforting a child, and said calmly, "You can't find an exit if you just run away. Go face it."

To face the truest thoughts in my heart.

Wang Yifeng and the others were worried about who to send to support the middle road in the Snow Demon Hall.

The Haoqi League placed heavy troops on the bottom lane, and Xiang Jing went to face Jiang Chuan in person; the top lane remained flat, and Lu Jie didn't plan to attack forward, otherwise the front line would be too long and the stronghold behind would be dangerous, not to mention Gu Lin's favorite on the opposite side What he did was to sneak attack the enemy's rear; on the middle road, according to the news from Yinyuanhui, Ye Junqian left the villa half a month ago, and now he has rushed to Wolongpo with his people.

The key is that Fufeng County in Mawei Station in the rear must not be underestimated.This is the largest trading point for the villains, and it is also the place where grain, grass and material transportation must pass through.Although there are many large arrow towers in the local area, they are very close to the camp of the Haoqi League, and they will fall into the enemy's hands if they relax for a moment.

The owner of this point is Ye Chuyun, and it is logical that Ye Chuyun will guard it, but everyone in the valley knows that Ye Chuyun has always been unwilling to guard a stronghold tremblingly and be coveted by others.He felt so useless.

Xiang Jing and Wang Yifeng had made a proposal in private before - simply put the middle lane, let Haoqi stretch the front line by himself, take advantage of the gap in the troops to fight back Fufeng County, and replace Fufeng County with someone who is good at defense.

And Wang Yifeng obviously didn't want to do this. The villain's financial and material resources are not as good as Haoqi, so it would be too risky to let Fufeng County go.

Wang Yifeng stood facing the sand table for a stick of incense and did not speak. Mo Yu stepped forward and took a look. His master was stroking his long beard, and there was no special expression on his face. According to Mo Yu's experience, Wang Yifeng's movements It means he is worried.

The candle flame was only half burnt.

Xuemo Wuwei knocked on the door three times, stood still and reported: "Valley Master, Castle Master, someone wants to see you."

Wang Yifeng turned his head together with Mo Yu, and saw a man standing outside the Snow Demon Hall with his fists clasped, his figure outlined in a hard armor against the skylight, and his figure was handsome.After saluting, the man slowly raised his head, half of his face was still in the shadow, and half of his face was illuminated by the light behind him——

Wang Yifeng had seen that look before.When Xiang Jing first entered the valley, he had the same look in his eyes.

Mo Yu noticed a trace of a smile leaking from Wang Yifeng's eyes, and then turned around to look at the people who walked into the room. An intuition appeared in the hearts of the master and the apprentice without saying anything——

Sooner or later, there will be a storm in the Valley of the Wicked.

There is still one month before the war between the two sides.After Shen Xiao volunteered, Mo Yu gave him a hundred shooters and a deputy—Shen Xiao understood that Mo Yu deliberately made things difficult for him, and both Mo Yu and Wang Yifeng wanted to see Shen Xiao with the 200 shooters in his hand. what people can do.

Shen Xiao left all 200 people in the Maweiyi camp and let his assistants do the drills.I went to Bailongkou alone.

He planned to take down Shiwai Slope first and then attack Sun Moon Cliff. On the one hand, leaving Bailongkou alone could also relax Haoqi League's vigilance in the early stage.One month before the start of the war, the opponent did not have such a strict patrol to make it convenient for him to check the terrain.Because there are no eyeliners or spies under his command, he can only come by himself.

Shen Xiao put on a black mask, twitched his horsewhip, and the horse quickly crossed the stone bridge connecting the Bailongkou cliff, leaving a black silhouette under the cold and full moon.

Ye Junqian had just finished surveying the Sun Moon Cliff, but the Evilman Valley did not deploy troops there, depending on the situation, he planned to defend the Mawei post safely.According to this situation, if he can successfully capture Sun Moon Cliff, he can join forces with his master Jiang Chuan to directly attack Fufeng County, the stronghold behind the villain, and the defensive force at Wolongpo in the rear is also sufficient.

It was supposed to be the time to rest now, but perhaps because summer is about to enter, the room is a bit stuffy.Ye Junqian couldn't fall asleep, so he put on a long coat and went out.

Anyway, there was some cool wind outside to keep him awake. He greeted Tang He and walked out of the stronghold alone.Walking aimlessly while observing the terrain around Wolongpo can be considered a walk.

Walk around Wolongpo and finally stop at the cliff on the east side of Wolongpo - this cliff is directly facing the building where the main general of Wolongpo lives, and it is also near the command post and the wounded camp.

Ye Junqian looked up at the facing stone cliff, and roughly measured the height difference and horizontal width.Such a distance is not insurmountable, if a team of light kung fu masters first climbed up the rocky cliff behind Wolongpo, with the chains hanging down as a support, this place can be used as a surprise attack point.Ye Junqian frowned, and after thinking for a moment, he took a few steps back, lowered his center of gravity to accumulate strength, jumped up, drew his light sword in the air, and used his strength to climb up the rocky cliff, standing still on the edge of the cliff.

I haven't paid attention to this place before, and I should add some guards here in the future.

Ye Junqian looked around, then walked to the edge of the cliff and sat down.Although this place is a rocky cliff, the place where the city wall of Wolongpo is connected on both sides is land, perhaps because there are many shrubs growing due to neglect.The cornices of the buildings behind extend to the sky like bird wings, casting a shadow on the stone cliff under the moonlight.But Ye Junqian was empty in front of him.

The cool wind blows from the bottom of the cliff, brushing up the long hair.

This scene always feels a little familiar.The empty cliff, myself in a daze on the cliff.But Ye Junqian couldn't remember where he saw it.

However, now that I am alone here, it seems that it is time to sort out the thoughts that have been troubling me for so long.Ye Junqian temporarily put aside the matter of going to war a month later, and then naturally remembered the words Ye Ying left for him.

"You can't find an exit if you just run away. Go face it." Ye Ying said.

Ye Ying said this to herself for the second time.The first time was when I was sent to the Hidden Sword Villa more than ten years ago.

It can be regarded as a past that is not happy.Ye Junqian remembered that he was born in the Western Regions, and his sporadic memories of childhood are all pictures of the Western Regions.The vast and boundless desert, the clear moon and starry sky, and the sound of copper bells.Just at the age of remembering, a family of people was robbed by horse thieves on the business road, probably because the past was too bloody, Ye Junqian didn't remember clearly, only remembered that he was sold to Luoyang by human traffickers, and then Jiang Chuan passed by and rescued him .

The Shen Xiao who followed Jiang Chuan back then was also a little child like himself, childish and handsome.The two people, one big and one small, were the first sunshine to Ye Junqian.If it weren't for them, Ye Junqian might have found it difficult to muster up the courage to face and move forward.

Ye Junqian is unwilling to recall the past, because the past will always bring out sad emotions.Now it's even more—even though I don't want to, I still have to remember, I have to tear open the wound over and over again, like Ye Ying said, otherwise I will stay in the same place forever.

But this time is different, Jiang Chuan has severed all ties with Shen Xiaoen, and he even hurt the person he loves severely with his own hands.

Every time Ye Junqian thought of this, he would bury his head and clenched his hands on his knees into fists.The turbulent emotions in his heart have filled his eyes, and only his long hair hanging down can slightly cover up his panic.

I want to see Shen Xiao, I want to know if he is doing well recently, I want to be with him, I want to go back to the old time... Also, I want to apologize to him.

Say sorry [-] times, and if you can, do everything you can to make up for the pain caused by the distrust back then.

Ye Junqian sincerely felt that he was a sinner.He sighed softly on the cliff.

"Who?!"

Ye Junqian was startled by the aura hiding in the bushes, shouted angrily, and at the same time turned his head and withdrew his sleeve darts, the sharp hidden weapon broke through the messy grass leaves, forcing out the person hiding in the bushes.
