This was his opportunity to attack, but the bad thing was that Lu Jie had rushed here, and Lu Jie's keen perception could be said to restrain him.Xiao Chu's assassination plan was given up, seeing Hao Qi confronting the villain, he took the opportunity to escape.

How could he know that before he got out of the bamboo forest, a blue light approached his head, Xiao Chu was startled, and hurriedly dodged, the crossbow arrow almost brushed against his body, this time directly nailed the entourage behind him to the tree, An arrow pierces the heart.

"It really is you." A cold and toneless voice came from the treetops.Xiao Chu had no choice but to stop, and looked up, a Tang Men wearing a half mask was standing at the branch of bamboo, with thin smoke still floating from the thousand receivers in his hand.

"Assassinate Shen Xiao and Lu Jie, do you want to avenge Xiang Jing?"

Xiao Chu guessed that when Lu Jie came, Tang He would be here too, but unexpectedly he was lying in ambush here waiting for him.Xiao Chu still doesn't know the details of Tang He just because of the silent pursuit just now, but the terrain of the bamboo forest here is indeed what Tang He is good at.The villain's army is already here, if the two of them fight, they will fold here if they fail.

Thinking of this, Xiao Chu withdrew his swords, sneered, and pretended to greet: "Yo, isn't this Mr. Tang?"

Tang He ignored it and only asked, "Did you kill Jiang Chuan?"

"Why did Mr. Tang say that? Why, did you see me kill Jiang Chuan with your own eyes?"

Now that the truth has gradually become clear, Xiao Chu's sophistry is meaningless, it seems to be deliberately provoking himself.Tang He said calmly, seeing that Xiao Chu didn't seem to intend to do anything, he stated, "I haven't seen it with my own eyes, but your plan to kill with a knife reminds me of when Su Liyue framed Shen Xiao in the Haoqi League two years ago. Now It seems that you were the one who stole the spear Haocang back then."

"Not bad, Mr. Tang knows everything." Xiao Chu squinted his eyes and applauded Tang He slowly. After the hypocritical applause stopped, Xiao Chufu lowered his frivolous voice again, "But sir, when it comes to Su Liyue, I don't know I suddenly wanted to ask." He didn't care whether Tang He answered or not, he just continued talking——

"I heard that Mr. Tang has recovered the token of Yinyuanhui now. The Yinyuanhui has been contacted, but he still can't get in touch with Mr. Tianxuanying, his teacher, right?"

Tang He frowned inadvertently, but did not reply.Indeed, although Yinyuanhui's news network has been rebuilt, Yinyuanhui has a neutral attitude after all, and news transmission will never cross camps. Now that he is the villain's valley, and Lu Jie is beside him, Tang He naturally has to Go to Haoqi's contact channel, let alone find Tianxuanying.

Xiao Chu knew that this would have some effect, so the smile on his face was a bit sinister: "Mr. Tang, why don't we make a deal?"

Tang He on the opposite side was silent for a moment, his expression still maintaining his usual coldness. "How are you doing?"

"I heard that Mr. Tang was robbed and came to the Valley of the Wicked, and I always wanted to return to the noble spirit. However, if I couldn't contact Tianxuanying, I couldn't return to the noble spirit. Coincidentally, soon, it will be the day when both sides release the prisoners, and that day Su Liyue will be released this time and leave the camp." Xiao Chu said with a smile, "The Luo Baihong party in the Haoqi League is obviously hostile to you, but now this neutral Su Liyue is probably the one who contacted Ying. Is it the only way?"

Tang He understood that what Xiao Chu said was the truth.Su Liyue previously sat in the position of Mingwei Tianxiang in the Haoqi League. After what happened to Shen Xiao, Jiang Chuan was not accused of being an insider, but was only imprisoned.Now that Jiang Chuan died and Xiang Jing was imprisoned, and Su Liyue was released and returned to neutrality, it is indeed very possible that she has a token of contact with Tianxuanying in her hand.

"What are the terms of the transaction?"

Xiao Chu laughed, and said only two words: "Lu Jie."

Shen Xiao was seriously injured and feared that he might not be able to move. Ye Junqian and Lu Jie helped Shen Xiao to lie down. The silver bell on Qu Xi's body jingled and jingled along with her healing movements. The little girl blew the worm Di was busy for a while.

When the flute stopped, Qu Xi squatted down and told Shen Xiao: "The injury is a bit serious, and I really need to rest for the past few days. Brother Shen, don't mess around anymore."

"Mr. Pei will really piss you off this time." Lu Jie teased from the side.

Ye Junqian helped Shen Xiao to sit up again, Shen Xiao had no choice but to raise the corner of his mouth, "I'm really sorry, I can't worry about Junqian. I will definitely go back and apologize to my husband later."

"Lu Jie, Xiaoxi, thank you for your help." Ye Junqian stood up, bowed respectfully to the two of them, clasped his fists and saluted, lowered his head and closed his eyes, "Junqian is very grateful."

"Brother Junqian, you're welcome, we're all from our own family."

Qu Xi stood on tiptoe and stroked Ye Junqian's hairline with her small hand.Lu Jie didn't make a sound, only responded with a smile.Seeing that Ye Junqian was relieved, he suggested, "I called the carriage. Jinshui Town may be short of medicinal materials again, so there is no hurry now that the truce is over. I'll wait until Luoyang City to rest for a few days."

Just as the discussion was over, Lu Jie turned his back and planned to bring the carriage over, when the sound of the wings of the air mechanism restraining reached his ears.Tang He stood still on the ground, and Lu Jie smiled at Tang He, "It's just right, we are planning to leave. You can also go to Luoyang with us, and the people who eat the apricot forest will go back, and some of our colleagues will also take care of us."

Tang He responded and followed Lu Jie to walk behind him. "Um."

"Have you caught up with that team of killers?"

There was no change in Tang He's tone, as usual, "No."

"Ah Xiao, the medicine is ready."

Ye Junqian entered the room with the medicine bowl in his hand, and was taken aback when he saw that Shen Xiao was not lying on the bed, but was sitting at the small round table.

"Why did you get up? Didn't Xiao Xi tell you to rest for a while before leaving?"

"I always lie down and feel that I can't move my hands and feet. Anyway, the wound is almost healed."

"I also have to thank you for saving that child Shuang Jin."

"He is very similar to you before." Shen Xiao stood up with a smile, pulled Ye Junqian to sit down opposite him, took the medicine bowl, and brought it to his lips while drinking, his heart itched, and he quietly raised his eyes to look at the medicine bowl. Looked at Ye Junqian who was looking at him.

The gaze at that moment was captured, and Ye Junqian asked, "Where does it look like?"

"Just like you, you are kind to everyone and treat people sincerely. You are more straightforward and talk more than you." He swallowed the medicine soup and put the medicine bowl aside, "If it weren't for the small size now, The way that kid wields the epee really looks very much like you."

"If that wasn't the case, you probably wouldn't feel relieved to let Shuang Jin come and rescue me." Ye Junqian looked at Shen Xiao, the collar under the armor still couldn't completely cover the silk wrapping the wound.Now Shen Xiao's appearance is better than when he was seriously injured, the blood on his face has recovered a bit, but his thin lips are still white, which makes people feel distressed.

"sorry."

Shen Xiao spoke slowly.

Ye Junqian was taken aback, looked at him with some doubts, but heard him say: "I went crazy and hurt you in the Poison Emperor's Court earlier. I'm sorry."

"I heard from Xiaoxi that it's because Mr. Xiao urged the blood-devouring Gu to do this."

"Yeah." Shen Xiao nodded, lowering his eyes to hide the disappointment in his eyes, and whispered, "When I wake up and think of all this, I can't stop worrying about your situation. On the other hand, I'm really afraid that you will hate me because of it." , go back to Haoqi, or simply disappear into my world."

Ye Junqian narrowed his eyes and smiled slightly, and pulled Shen Xiao's hand over, interlocking his fingers and gently holding it, "Didn't it be agreed that I would not leave you no matter what?"

Shen Xiao's eyes moved from his fingers to Ye Junqian's face bit by bit, as if he was fascinated, the emotions revealed by his two eyes were entangled with each other, and they were immersed in the lake water in each other's eyes, sinking deeper and deeper. deeper.

The two sat opposite each other quietly, Shen Xiao slowly stretched out his hand, the familiar warmth caressed Ye Junqian's face.

The callused thumb gently rubbed his face, Shen Xiao never took his eyes off Ye Junqian for a moment, as if he was talking to himself, "Really, it's great that you didn't leave... ..."

"The sky is old, and the temples are gray." Ye Junqian whispered, "No matter what happens, I will stand by your side."

"Aren't you afraid that this blood-devouring Gu will break out again and make me slaughter crazily again, and you won't even recognize me?" Shen Xiao suddenly clenched Ye Junqian's hand, his eyes flickering with anxiety.

Ye Junqian, who was sitting opposite, slowly closed his eyes.

In his memory, in the Poison Emperor's Courtyard that day, although Shen Xiao injured himself severely, his final movements were still full of stiffness, as if there was still a trace of sobriety remaining.If he really lost his mind at that moment, he could easily cut off his own head with a single shot, but in the end Shen Xiao just used his palm to blow him away from that distance.

"You won't fail to recognize me." Ye Junqian said.

From his fingertips to his palms, he could really feel the temperature from Shen Xiao. It was his own warm breath, and even behind it was the scorching heat of his heart.However, the trace of anxiety in Shen Xiao's words now made Ye Junqian's heart as calm as water.

"If that day comes, I will wake you up. Ah Xiao."

Lu Jie and Tang He set off first to return to the Valley of the Evil, while Shen Xiao and Ye Junqian stayed in Luoyang. After about half a month, Shen Xiao's actions recovered a bit.Thinking of revisiting their hometown, the two went out together.

The horseshoe shuttled lightly in the city of Luoyang.

The changes in this bustling place are not very big, the buildings are still in an uproar, and people come and go.The outskirts of the city are more lively than many years ago. The alley where Jiang Chuan and Shen Xiao picked up Ye Junqian has now become a house.

Before I knew it, it was almost the end of spring.

The branches of the trees in the hills have disappeared, and they are covered with green and green.There are only a few wild roses occasionally seen on the roadside, dotted in small clusters, blooming in full bloom.Wild flowers and weeds along the way brought the two of them to the foot of Beimang Mountain.

Although no one mentioned it, they came here with a tacit understanding in the end.Tiance Mansion, General Tomb.

Luoyang is also the hometown of Jiangchuan.

Among the many tombstones, there is a brand new stone tablet.Shen Xiao and Ye Junqian walked there, ink black seal characters were engraved on the stele, and it was written - the tomb of the teacher Jiang Chuan, the disciple Luo Baihongli, there was only a bouquet of wild flowers on the grave bag, which was probably presented by Luo Baihong.

According to the rules of Tiance Mansion, the soldiers who joined the camp and left the mansion will not be listed in the Lingyan Pavilion after the battle, and they cannot receive too much tribute.The soldiers of the Haoqi League can still erect monuments and engrave inscriptions, but those from the Valley of the Wicked can only leave a memorial tablet in the general's tomb.

But since he has entered this camp, no one will care about what will happen after him. A wisp of desolate soul, returning to his hometown is enough.

Ye Junqian refilled three sticks of incense on the grave, Shen Xiao took the wine pouch from his waist, and sprinkled the spirits in it around the grave, the two of them knelt down in front of the stone tablet and kowtowed three times .

"When I stood in front of you in Jinshui Town and confronted Senior Brother Baihong that day, I suddenly understood." Ye Junqian looked at the brand new stone tablet, with a hint of sadness hidden in his eyes.

Shen Xiao then asked, "Understand what?"

"Do you still remember when you met the master in Hei Gobi, he said that he would sever the master-student relationship with me?"

"Ah."

The two stood up, and finally bowed to the stone tablet to salute.Due to identity issues, it is inconvenient to stay longer, so I can only turn around and walk away slowly with my back to the grave.

"I understand that Master has always loved me the most, and he already understands my heart. I thought about it for a long time when he would open his mouth so decisively, and then I suddenly understood that day—" Ye Junqian sighed softly, "He was afraid that I would choose to follow you And go, and feel ashamed of him and Haoqi comrades in my heart, so he hesitated, so I said this..."

Gratitude or resentment, even if there are still unfinished regrets in my heart, there are still unspoken words, all this about Master Jiang Chuan has come to an end.
