【Yi Tian and Ren Minruo】Floating Life
Chapter 13
The night is dark, and the cool breeze is gradually rising.
It was a fluke to win this time, but both Yin Li and Zhao Min were seriously injured, and when they narrowly escaped death, Zhang Wuji thought that although Yin Li was his cousin, men and women could not get along with each other in the end, but Zhou Zhiruo hugged Zhao Min, and Granny Jinhua didn't know where she would settle down with Xiao Zhao, as for Xie Xun, it was even more inconvenient, and finally had to hug Yin Li.
Xie Xun admired the young man's profound internal strength, and was even more grateful in his heart. While helping him break the back, in case the Persians who had gone and returned would pursue him, at the same time, he made a little light work, and carried King Pingping to chase Zhang Wuji and others.
Several people hurried down the mountain, about a few feet away, when suddenly they heard the Miaofeng Envoy shouting in the distance: "Leave the Mingjiao traitor Xie Xun and King Pingping, or everyone will be killed."
Hearing this, Zhao Min was startled in panic, raised her hand in a daze, and went to pull Zhou Zhiruo, beckoning her to come over by her ear, and said, "Sister Zhou, get on the boat and sail away."
Zhou Zhiruo gave a general nod, conveyed the words to Zhang Wuji and Xie Xun, and after receiving his message, they ran faster.
But after a while, he had dodged to the shore, and after entering the cabin, Zhang Wuji shouted loudly: "Princess Shaomin has an order, and all the sailors set sail and anchor, and prepare to sail quickly."
It turns out that although this boat is called a fishing boat going out to sea, it is actually a refit of a gun boat. The helmsman and sailors on it are all under the orders of the Ruyang Palace. For that.
"Turn the rudder and let the boat go." The boatman waved his hand, and the sail jumped up. By the time the three Persian envoys who vowed not to give up chased him to the shore, the ship had already left the shore by tens of feet.
"Zhiruo, please help untie Miss Zhao's clothes, I'll check her injuries." As he spoke, Zhang Wuji turned his back to Zhou Zhiruo and Zhao Min, and turned to look at Yin Li.
The moment before Granny Jinhua left, it seemed that she wanted to put Yin Li to death. Fortunately, Yin Li was clever and avoided the vital acupuncture points. If not, she might be more than unconscious now.
On the other side, although Zhao Min was not drowsy, the sword wound on his lower abdomen was about half an inch deep, and his life was not harmed, but he was bleeding profusely, and his consciousness gradually became faint.
Ever since she was injured, Zhou Zhiruo couldn't help worrying deeply. Now whenever she touches the blood-stained clothing, it feels as if she's placed in an ice cave. It's colder than all the temperatures in her memory. I don't know if it's because the sea breeze is getting stronger or her heart is fluctuating. emotions at work.
"Sister Zhou, don't worry, I'm fine." Zhou Zhiruo kept hearing her talking, seeing her showing her face and smiling, her eyes and expressions were obviously forced, but she was so forced that she couldn't pick out a flaw.
However, Zhou Zhiruo didn't say a word.
〔Minmin〕, her lips were closed, but her heart called out the shortness of the name, the articulation, the intonation, and the ending sound hidden in self-blame, murmured repeatedly and silently back and forth, like a drizzle of rain secretly falling from the sky, Don't dare to be too flamboyant and take away the spring, don't dare to expose yourself too blatantly, showing worry and concern, and don't dare to take off the icy appearance to understand the voice of the heart.
Because the poisonous oath has been made and the will is entrusted, it is not because he dare not repent but because he does not want to violate his principles.
[Minmin, don't show up again when your injury heals]
In one sentence, there are three points of ruthless love for forcing oneself, five points should be resolute and firm, and the remaining two points are sister Zhou who is not evasive or dodges and easily loses her position.
In the blink of an eye, Zhao Min only showed the injured part. After Zhang Wuji applied medicine and bandaged Yin Li, he came to inspect her injury. During the process, he asked her how she was. He gritted his teeth and shook his head.
No matter how perfect the camouflage is, once you see the back of the chair in the cabin, it is like waves rolling over the sea. How can you hide your unsettled emotions?
The end of no answer is:
-- unknown
……
Looking past one, two, three eyes... stagnant like glue, don't rush, secretly, because the back view will never see the bright stars in other people's eyes.
When the sailors on the top shouted: "There is an enemy ship chasing from behind, everyone should take measures to deal with it."
First she was stunned for a moment, then hurriedly looked away, as expected, the next moment Zhou Zhiruo approached her, knelt down and looked at Zhao Min, her face was not anxious and worried like Zhang Wuji's, but calm and calm, Zhao Min endured Feeling the pain, he said slowly: "Sister Zhou, take my Yitian Sword, hid in the dark cabin together with Master Zhang and Senior Xie, and led the three Persian envoys aboard. Fight with them in the cabin, and take two large iron anchors from the deck, put them in the cabin, and use them as obstacles to force the three Persian envoys to fight on their own."
Zhou Zhiruo said: "Okay." Since the extinction of death, the first smile finally stuck to her cheeks as she wished, flicked the syllables overflowing from her lips, and then entered her ears quickly, Zhao Min couldn't help laughing with her, and bent the corners of her mouth.
Then she saw the figure of her taking the Yitian sword and watching her go away, the hasty and brief figure was enough to make people happy and relieved, she knew that Zhou Zhiruo had actually thought of this method.
Immediately after was the position arrangement, but what I never expected was that there was a sudden loud bang, and the violent side of the hull, followed by the sea water pouring in mid-air, poured straight into the cabin, and the sailors at the rear shouted loudly: "The enemy ship! Fire, the enemy ship fires, what shall we do?"
Zhou Zhiruo and Zhang Wuji's hearts sank at the same time, and they ran towards the cabin in a hurry, wanting to check whether Zhao Min and Yin Li were safe, when they were halfway there, they heard a voice from the cabin: "We also have cannons, in the lower cabin."
Hearing this, Zhang Wuji rushed to the deck immediately, commanded all the sailors to remove the cover on the cannon, put iron bullets in the cannon, ignited the burning rope, and with a bang, the cannon blasted past.
As for Zhou Zhiruo, she still entered the cabin where Zhao Min was. Zhao Min unconsciously showed a smile on her first step, and raised her voice, "Sister Zhou, I'm fine. Go out and help."
The final word was finalized, efficient and concise, Zhou Zhiruo felt her heart burning, she didn't dare to hesitate, she didn't dare to linger, and she didn't dare to turn around and walk out without a pause.
But as soon as he stepped out of the hatch, the ship kept spinning around, it turned out that the enemy ship hit the rudder just now, smashing the rudder to pieces, even the helmsman fell into the sea and died.
In desperation, countless thoughts flashed through Zhou Zhiruo's mind like lightning, and her thoughts went back and forth a thousand times. Finally, her shadow came to Zhang Wuji's side like a shooting star, and she said, "Brother Wuji, the sea water has already poured in. This boat can't Let’s go again, but when I was locked in the bilge, I accidentally found a boat made of masts tied to the side.”
"Really." Zhang Wuji was overjoyed, but he still asked, Zhou Zhiruo nodded, and then he took Xie Xun to push out the boat.
After a while, the gunboat gradually sank and the cabin was flooded. Zhang Wuji picked up Yin Li, Zhou Zhiruo picked up Zhao Min, Xie Xun picked up King Pingping, and everyone climbed onto the mast.
Except for Zhao Min and Yin Li, the others snatched the oars and rowed vigorously to stay away from the burning gunboat that was gradually sinking into the sea. As for the Persians, they must have never expected that they had a small boat, thinking that Zhang Wuji and others were buried in the sea , then no longer pursue.
……
During the boat trip, the few people did not dare to stop for a moment, because in the vast sea, if the enemy found out, the enemy boat would have to bombard it with a cannonball. Everyone has a long internal energy, rowing straight through the middle of the night without getting tired.
But at dawn, the cold wind blows the sea surface, and the ink turns raindrops, one drop, two drops, three drops...falling into a few pairs of eyes, Zhao Min watched Zhou Zhiruo drop the wooden paddle and slowly come towards her, eyes It's full of worry, full of my own reflection.
"This wound has just been covered with medicine, so it can't be exposed to the rain." Before Zhao Min had time to ask what to do, he was already hugged into his arms, and the sense of distance before was inexplicably shortened in this way.
"Sister Zhou, what are you doing?" Hearing this gentle and coquettish remark, Zhou Zhiruo's ears suddenly fell red, and she felt hot, so she was stunned for a while, and then said, "There is nothing that can block the rain. I can only..."
Zhao Min suddenly rubbed against Zhou Zhiruo's body, her hands couldn't help but hug her tightly, and the smile on her cheeks turned into a radiant dance, and she said softly, "I'll listen to sister Zhou."
Zhang Wuji was drawn back by the movement behind him, and the next moment he frowned, feeling bewildered, and after a quick glance at Yin Li, he met Zhou Zhiruo's eyes, and said: "Miss Princess, you won't be able to catch this little rain." Bar."
After saying that, he turned around and continued to paddle with the wooden oar, and the golden-haired lion beside him laughed loudly instead: "Others are a man and a woman, talented and beautiful, but Zeng Shaoxia has so many girls around him, it seems that he is really lucky."
"This... don't make fun of us." Zhang Wuji's heart suddenly burned, thinking of Xiao Zhao's innocence, Yin Li's words and laughter, and Zhou Zhiruo's gentleness like water.
"..." Zhou Zhiruo remained silent, lowered her head, and saw Zhao Min looking into her eyes, and said slowly: "Sister Zhou is beautiful, I feel pity for her, no wonder the old man also counts you in it .”
These words sound fine, but if you touch them carefully, they will be full of flaws. Xie Xun had lost his eyes more than 20 years ago, so how could he see Zhou Zhiruo's appearance?
"Also, old man, don't count me in. If you continue to talk nonsense, wait until I recover from my injury and see if I won't beat you up." Zhao Min's voice was loud, but there was no trace of anger.
As soon as she finished speaking, she raised her eyes and saw Zhou Zhiruo's brows and eyes glowing brightly, and a long smile stretched across her lips, occupying her field of vision. Zhao Min asked puzzledly, "Sister Zhou, why are you smiling?"
There was a slight ripple in the lake of heart, and then the sound of water slapping over came to my ears: "The princess is also beautiful."
The voice is so gentle, it seems to be talking to her, and it seems to be talking to herself.
"Sister Zhou has something in her words." The jade body in Zhou Zhiruo's arms hugged harder and harder, and now even the rainwater couldn't help but have the temperature, it was scalding hot for a while, and then slowly melted into this embrace.
If people have the power to freeze time, can they always be in their hearts when they meet for the first time when they are young...
If the Chonghua mirror can read the heart, thousands of words, and the smallest voice can be guessed without guessing...
If I were not the head of Emei, and you were not the head of Shaomin County, would we be different...
……
The heavy rain gradually subsided, and several people came to a small island. Zhang Wuji was afraid that the little girls would catch cold, so he hurriedly found a cave that could shelter from the wind and rain, and settled down temporarily.
"Zhang Wuji, you kid, why don't you want to go to Spirit Snake Island with me?" Yin Li muttered in sleep, hearing this, Zhang Wuji's heart sank, and he immediately went over and touched her forehead, burning his hand, Fang Knowing that she had a fever after being seriously injured, she started talking nonsense.
Then he wanted to take out his handkerchief to wipe off the sweat on Yin Li's forehead, but when he saw things, he remembered Han Shui and Zhou Zhiruo's meeting, his eyes filled with joy, then he glanced in Zhao Min's direction, and couldn't help but look at Zhou Zhiruo again After taking a look, he remembered the touch in his heart just now, and felt deeply humbled.
"Wuji, I beg you to come with me, you bit me so hard on the back of my hand, but I don't hate you at all..." The raving in the dream is pleading, humble, but the most true voice.
Some people are gentle and gentle, some are gentle like water, some are eccentric... But now some people can't see the clouds or the moon when they look up, but they can see the undulating water in the sea.
[Zhao Min, I don’t want to see you again, don’t come with me]
Zhou Zhiruo saw that Zhang Wuji was holding the handkerchief she had given him, and suddenly her eyes met. They looked at each other for a few seconds, and it became a cold and long night in Zhao Min's eyes. With Zhou Zhiruo's words wrapped around her, she felt even colder.
Everything seemed to be developing naturally, and the pictures flashed back slowly and profoundly in memory.
But no one knows which side's efforts to push away are more bitter.
[The Yitian Sword and the Dragon Saber are both on Spirit Snake Island now, should I...]
It was late at night, and the cool breeze was blowing up. Zhou Zhiruo turned over slightly, a smile seemed to occupy her eyes, and Zhao Minjiao's beautiful face glowed with brilliance, and she was tied to her body.
Gentle and lively.
For some reason, she felt a burning sensation in her heart, and she gently touched Zhao Min's slightly trembling eyelashes with her outstretched hand. Sister, I'm so cold."
A lingering smile disappeared in an instant, and instead brought out a worry as heavy as a boulder.
"Minmin." Without even thinking about it, she leaned over, embraced the jade body in her arms, and burned her heart with a different kind of body temperature. It turns out that the invisible distance is only drawn closer in the dead of night.
[Sister Zhou, this is the first time I hear you calling me like that]
The person pretending to be asleep held back for a second, two seconds, three seconds... Finally, the corners of his lips involuntarily raised slightly, so that he could smile longer and the night longer, which is a good idea.
[Sister Zhou, you still care about Minmin, right?]
For some reason, she just felt an overwhelming warmth pouring into her heart, as if she closed her eyes and still had a good dream, and when she opened her eyes, it was spring in the world.
And let her whisper in her heart, calling her thousands of times:
——Sister Zhou
……
The moonlight on the sea, the lonely island in the quiet night, and the morning sun, Zhang Wuji took advantage of everyone's mood to calm down, and met Xie Xun.
"Father, the child is not filial..." It turned out that Xie Xun was living on Binghuo Island many years ago. He had sworn vows with Zhang Cuishan and Yin Susu, and adopted the couple's newborn son as his adoptive son. The name is Xie Wuji.
After Zhang Wuji returned to the Central Plains, he changed his surname to Zhang Cuishan. As for him, he lived on Binghuo Island for about 20 years before being taken to Spirit Snake Island by Zishan Dragon King Dai Qisi, that is, Granny Jinhua.
For so many years, he has been able to avoid the pursuit of the enemies of the rivers and lakes because of holding the dragon sword in his hand, and he has been asking Granny Jinhua to go to the Central Plains to inquire about Zhang Wuji.
For several years, there has been no news, but now the person who thinks about it is the young man who is right in front of him.
"Brother Wuji, it's a wish." Her voice was very soft, and the smile on her face was very shallow, but somehow it made Zhao Min feel a little panicked, and asked, "Sister Zhou is happy."
Zhou Zhiruo said "Yes", she knew that Zhang Wuji had lost his parents since he was a child, and now that he met Xie Xun, she didn't know how many endless bitter memories and countless turmoil in the world, she thought she was really happy for him.
"Miss Zhao, is this fruit not to your liking?" Zhao Min took a bite of the fruit that Zhou Zhiruo handed over, and then stopped. After hearing this sentence, she muttered in a low voice, "You called me Minmin last night, why now?" Change your mouth if you say it."
Then he replied: "I don't like it, you can give it to your brother Wuji to eat."
After speaking, she lay down and turned around, but Zhou Zhiruo stopped her with her hand: "This will touch the wound."
The gentle and lingering voice brushed past his ears, and a little search and worry made Zhao Min's expression very different from Shicai's again.
"Minmin, why don't you turn around?" Worrying made her lose her sense of size. Although the two syllables overflowing unconsciously in front were as thin as mosquitoes, they were still heard by Zhao Min. She turned around, but Zhou Zhiruo got up in a hurry. turned away.
The moment before leaving, Zhou Zhiruo only felt her heart pounding.
"Sister Zhou, where are you going? My wound hurts again, won't you come and take care of me?" Zhao Min said in a very serious voice with a loud voice.
Zhou Zhiruo's footsteps became faster and faster, her face was like the scorching sun, and she ran out, Zhang Wuji was puzzled, thinking what was wrong with her, so she chased after her.
"Zhang Wuji, why are you chasing him?" The voice was like five thunderclaps, terrifyingly loud.
On the other side, as soon as Zhou Zhiruo came out of the cave, her steps slowed down. She was still thinking about the Yitian Sword and the Dragon Saber, but after a while, her mouth was suddenly covered by someone, she was dragged into the grass, and squatted down. down.
"Brother Wuji." Zhang Wuji raised his finger and put it against his lips, signaling her to keep quiet. It turned out that there was a sneaky figure in front of him, which aroused his vigilance.
"It looks familiar." Zhou Zhiruo murmured in a low voice, but suddenly Zhang Wuji shouted, "It's Xiao Zhao."
As soon as the words were finished, the two of them had moved to Xiao Zhao's side, asking why they knew that the Persians had already caught up with them, and they seemed to be searching for them on a large scale.
It is inconvenient to speak right now, Zhang Wuji brought Xiao Zhao and Zhou Zhiruo back to the cave, as soon as they entered, Zhao Min's eyes first fell on Xiao Zhao, and then froze on Zhou Zhiruo, pouted in an inaudible tone: "Sister Zhou, You were not here just now, and my wound hurts again."
Zhou Zhiruo walked towards her as she wished, and sat next to Zhao Min, her face was indifferent, she didn't ask any questions, she just quietly accompanied her, her eyes fixed on Xiao Zhao.
"My lord, please hurry up and save my mother..." Xiao Zhao suddenly knelt down, which really scared everyone present.
After helping her up, Xiao Zhao roughly told what happened before. Grandma Jinhua was her biological mother. After Xie Xun and others left, Granny Jinhua and Xiao Zhao came to look for them. He has been obsessed with the Dragon Saber in Xie Xun's hand, unexpectedly there is a member of the beggar gang named Chen Youliang, who followed closely behind with a Persian.
In order to protect Xiao Zhao, he was seriously injured and captured by the Persians. As for Xiao Zhao, who was not good at martial arts, he ran away in a panic, and happened to meet Zhou Zhiruo and Zhang Wuji.
Right now, there are rows of large ships parked in the west of the island, each white sail is painted with a big red flower flame, and black ribbons are hung on the sails, and the flames are flickering at the northwest corner where the sea and the sky meet, presumably Xiao Zhao was very worried that Granny Jinhua was going to be burned alive, so she had to tell Zhang Wuji the truth and begged him to go and save Granny Jinhua.
"You are Han Qianye's child. You are hiding your identity in Mingjiao. Do you have any intentions?" After listening to Xiao Zhao's words, the Golden Retriever Lion King felt suspicious and asked sharply.
Xiao Zhao nodded with tears in her eyes, but knelt down in front of Zhang Wuji again, and pleaded slowly: "My lord, there is a reason for Xiao Zhao to join Mingjiao, but Xiao Zhao has never betrayed you, nor has he ever betrayed Mingjiao. Go save my mother, and then punish Xiao Zhao, or those Persians will really burn my mother to death, son, please."
Zhang Wuji was originally a soft-hearted person. When he saw Xiao Zhao crying, he wanted to respond. As for Zhao Min, in order to ease Xiao Zhao's heart, he narrated his thoughts: "Miss Xiao Zhao, don't worry. Mother should be safe, if my guess is right, they should want us to negotiate, otherwise why make a big fuss and let us know that your mother is going to be burned to death, let alone we have hostages in our hands, so you don't have to panic for now , Let Master Zhang go talk to them."
"Miss Zhao is right, Xiao Zhao, I will go with you to save your mother now." Xiao Zhao was not very grateful, and hurried to rescue Granny Jinhua with Zhang Wuji.
As for Zhou Zhiruo who was on the side, although she was silent, she showed a very faint smile when Zhao Min finished speaking, presumably all smart people knew it by heart.
"Sister Zhou, I suddenly feel that the wound hurts so much. Could it be that I just said too much, and it took most of my strength to do it." The words inside and outside the heart sink, and I can't help but worry, but in fact, the tone can't help but laugh. During the speech, Zhou Zhiruo's clothes were tugged countless times.
"..." Zhou Zhiruo didn't say anything, she lowered her head, knowing that Zhao Min did it on purpose, she felt her stomach burning slightly, she wanted to cooperate with her in looking at the wound, or ignored it.
While hesitating, Xie Xun suddenly said in a slow voice: "Zhou girl, is it true that the daughter of the princess is seriously injured, why are you yelling this and that every day, it makes my ears callused."
Zhou Zhiruo pursed her lips in a familiar way, glanced at Zhao Min with her brimming eyes, and then replied softly, "Miss Zhao is indeed seriously injured, but..." She should be recovering soon.
The ending sound was as small as a mosquito, and suddenly choked in his throat. Xie Xun didn't hear it all, he was still worried, he sighed, and then continued to talk: "But it's no wonder, Miss Zhou is so gentle and considerate, princess The girl suffered such a serious injury, it seems that it is justifiable to pester Zhou girl all day long."
"Lion King, you can talk nonsense." Zhou Zhiruo couldn't help but panic when she saw that Zhao Min opened her mouth. She paused and said again, "How can I pester Sister Zhou all day long?"
Hearing this, Xie Xun laughed teasingly: "No, no, it seems that I am not only blind, but my ears are also old and useless, so I mishear."
Sure enough, Zhao Min gave Xie Xun a nasty look, then silently pursed her lips and puffed up her cheeks. The small expression was caught in Zhou Zhiruo's eyes, and she said softly with an inaudible smile, "The wound is still hurting now."
This is what he meant on the surface, but Zhao Min heard [You still want to keep pestering me], Zhao Min understood and shook his head.
Seeing this, Zhou Zhiruo's smile dissipated in her heart like waves on the sea, turbulently hitting her, but her face became calm in a blink of an eye, without any waves.
As for Zhang Wuji, about half an hour later, the three of them came back safely. As Zhao Min expected, the person they captured was King Pingping, the sixth king of the Twelve Treasure Trees. As long as they dared to burn Jinhua to death Mother-in-law, the King of Equality is sure to die, so the Persians dare not bet on the safety of the King of Equality.
"Zhiruo, Miss Zhao, adoptive father, are you alright?" Seeing that Zhang Wuji came back safe and sound with Xiao Zhao and Granny Jinhua, they were overjoyed and nodded in response to Zhang Wuji's question.
As for Granny Jinhua, who was rescued by Zhang Wuji in such a catastrophe, she was not very grateful in her heart, so besides being apologetic to Xie Xun, she was also full of gratitude.
But the Persians are very cunning, not to mention there is a pretentious Chen Youliang next to them, how can they let Zhang Wuji and the others go easily, unexpectedly, the golden flower mother-in-law is actually the bait for them to catch big fish with a long line.
"What's the smell?" Zhao Min was the quickest to respond, and a few words came out of her mind vigilantly.
"Zhiruo, take care of everyone here, I'll go out and have a look." Hearing Zhao Min's words, Zhang Wuji's eyes were full of concern, and he jumped out of the cave for a moment of anxiety.
But after a while, Zhang Wuji came back with a face as heavy as a boulder, and he said panickedly: "Let's go quickly, outside..."
Before he could finish his words, the great sage king who held the holy fire order had already shouted loudly at the entrance of the cave: "Listen people inside, the outside is already surrounded by us, full of zhayao, as long as you release the king of equality, the king of treasure trees Forgive his guilt, which is more lenient than pardon, and you will be safe."
Xie Xun smiled sharply, and replied loudly: "You think I, Xie, is a three-year-old child. Once we release the prisoners, you can still withdraw the prison? Why don't we still light it as usual, how can we leave safely?"
There was a moment of silence outside, and then the voice became smooth again: "Golden Retriever Lion King, you don't want to toast and eat fine wine. If you don't release King Equality, we will light zhayao now."
"Father, let the child go out and fight with them." Zhang Wuji said angrily, Xie Xun raised his hand to stop him from continuing, and then shouted outside the cave, "Listen, people outside, as long as you promise us three conditions , I, Xie Xun, promise to send the head church members out respectfully."
"What conditions?" The man said, Xie Xun slowly said the conditions one by one, "First, from now on, the chief teacher and the Mingjiao of Zhongtu will respect each other and not interfere with each other."
Persia is far away from Middle-earth, as long as there is no contact, there will be no interference. The man responded loudly. Seeing this, Xie Xun continued to raise the corners of his mouth loudly: "Secondly, Dai Qisi is not allowed to be prosecuted for the crime of losing her virginity."
Dai Qisi, as the saint of Pasha, fell in love with Han Qianye, gave birth to Xiao Zhao, and violated the rules of the head teacher. In terms of punishment, she should be burned. But Dai Qisi, even Granny Jinhua and Xie Xun have a friendship with Jinlan, Xie Xun took this opportunity to try to protect her safety.
"Do you agree to this condition or not?" He didn't hear the man's voice, so he knew they were still wandering around.
After an unknown amount of time, the man suddenly said in a hurry: "What is Xie Xun's third thing? Tell me first."
"You can't agree to the second thing, let alone the third thing?" Xie Xun retorted.
"Okay, let's accept the second one, let's talk about the third one." The tone was neither serious nor serious, but it could not help but arouse people's vigilance.
Before Xie Xun could say the third thing, Zhao Min had already stepped forward and said: "Now retreat to the shore and prepare two boats. After we sail fifty li away, if we don't see you sending a big boat to chase after us, we will put the prisoners in The boat, let you take it with you."
The man was furious and shouted: "Nonsense, nonsense."
Xie Xun and the others were all startled, not knowing what he was talking about, Zhao Min smiled at Zhou Zhiruo, "Sister Zhou and the others are talking nonsense, I don't know if it's because they don't learn Chinese well, or if it's what they say in Persian Mingjiao. "
Now that the situation is tense, Zhao Min still smiled brightly, Zhou Zhiruo also bent her lips following Ninjun when she saw her like this.
At this moment, there was a sudden bang, and a big hole was blown out at the back of the cave, which made Zhang Wuji and the others ring in their ears, and they immediately formed a group back to back, and the Persians took the opportunity to send people to fill up the back of the cave. People, only said: "Xie Xuner and others have also seen the power of this zayao, so they quickly released King Equality, we can agree to your first two conditions."
"Don't trust them." Zhao Min endured the pain and said anxiously, "As long as we have hostages in our hands, they dare not detonate all the bombs, just to scare us, but now the cave is surrounded by Persians, and there are zayas nearby. , I am afraid it will be even more difficult for us to escape safely.”
Of course, the Persians didn't have that much patience to spend with Zhang Wuji and the others. After several discussions and considerations, they sent people into the cave to snatch King Pingping back.
In desperation, Chen Youliang proposed to set fire to the entrance of the cave, and use thick smoke to suffocate Zhang Wuji and others, forcing them to come out.
"Ahem..." Sure enough, after a while, the cave was already gray, and someone outside the cave shouted loudly, "Daikis is a traitor to our sect, Xie Xun, you just need to cut off her head. Send King Pingping out again, we will immediately put out the fire and let you and the others go."
The Persian's love and righteousness towards Xie Xun is like a shoal, floating on the surface, but not deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, so how do you know that he is the golden flower mother-in-law who would rather die than betray Jinlan.
"Madam Han, don't worry, I, Xie Xun, will not betray you even if I die." Hearing this, Granny Jinhua couldn't help her eyes welling up, and she replied to Xie Xun, "Third brother, old lady, I have never said such a thing in my life. Thank you, today I would like to thank my third brother for defending me with all his strength regardless of previous suspicions."
"Where did you say that, since the day we sworn obeisance, our Four Great Dharma Kings have never thanked you for anything. They are all from our own family. As an elder brother, we should protect you." One sentence, two sentences, three sentences... Shang Yang is not very grateful The voice echoed in the ears, and the golden flower mother-in-law hid the ocean in her eyes, looking at everyone when the tide rose and fell.
Zhao Min couldn't help approaching Zhou Zhiruo, his vision was filled with tenderness as bright as the moonlight, and he said slowly, "Sister Zhou, are you afraid?"
"What are you afraid of?" The voice twisted curiously and tremblingly.
"If they ignore the hostages and light gunpowder, we will all be buried here, or maybe we will be choked to death by the thick smoke, are you afraid?" Zhao Min said jokingly.
"Not afraid." Zhou Zhiruo's expression was as calm as water.
It seems to be answering Zhao Min's question, and it seems to be telling myself [with Minmin by my side, what is there to be afraid of], the unconscious voice will always be understood at a certain moment.
She is a person who is soft on the outside and strong on the inside, and there is an inexplicable sense of distance on the surface, but for some reason, the coldness under her skin seems to always be cold for a moment because of one person. Turning his head to look at the person sitting next to him, suddenly it is like a prairie fire meets a downpour, and the white snow meets a spring breeze, the fire extinguishes and the grass grows, and the ice melts and the snow melts.
She looked into Zhao Min's eyes, and said slowly: "The daughter of the princess should not have suffered much, and now we are here on the verge of life and death, do you regret that you knew this earlier, why don't you come to this Spirit Snake Island? "
"I don't regret it." The three words on the lips actually wanted to say [Min Minte Moore doesn't regret coming to the Spirit Snake Island with Zhou Zhiruo]. a way of expression.
Little did they know that Zhou Zhiruo's heart was also moved when she heard the words.
[Minmin doesn't regret saving me and come here with me to suffer? 〕
She showed her face radiantly, and suddenly wanted to continue asking, so that the questions in her heart could be understood, but she couldn't, because another voice came from her heart.
[Zhiruo, you promised to be your teacher, take back the Yitian Sword and the Dragon Slaying Saber, and make Emei famous, don’t forget these]
Extinction spoke to her, and she was speaking to herself.
This side is the same, and the other side is also the same, Xiao Zhao has looked at Zhang Wuji countless times, with inexhaustible nostalgia, Jinhua Granny's eyes are already bright, she sneers: "Xiao Zhao, come here."
Everyone followed the sound and looked over, and saw Xiao Zhao walking slowly towards Granny Jinhua, stopped in front of her, and heard her say: "Xiao Zhao, you have grown up now, and you have your own choices and ideas, mother I haven’t been by your side all these years, the only thing I can do for you now is to protect you.”
Knowing what she meant, Xiao Zhao shook her head with tears in her eyes, but Granny Jinhua continued: "Ever since I married your father, I knew that such a day would come, maybe this is my fate, now it's time to return to the place that belongs to me. place."
Speaking of this, she felt an inexplicable pain in her heart, and she stepped forward and hugged Xiao Zhao into her arms: "Mother has nothing else to ask, but I hope that you will not be like my mother, hiding in Tibet, and live a peaceful life. Mother can feel at ease even under the Nine Springs."
As soon as she said that, she pushed Xiao Zhao away, raised her jade hand, and took off her white hair, revealing black silk like a cloud, and climbed up to the edge of her face with her other hand, peeling off a layer of skin.
Zhang Wuji and the others were shocked, but in an instant, they had turned into a beautiful woman with creamy skin, almond eyes and peach cheeks.
"Mother, I'll go with you." Zhang Wuji and the others were so shocked that their mouths were still closed, and then they heard Xiao Zhao say, "Mother has sacrificed so much for Dad, I think I should do something for the person I like, only I will go with you, they will not deal with you, so I will go too."
"Do you know what you're talking about?" Granny Jinhua immediately shouted in a stern voice.
"I know." There is a kind of love in the world called letting go and fulfillment. When you meet when you are young, it is not too early or too late, because the love that is unforgettable enough is not to be possessed.
Xiao Zhao's love for Zhang Wuji is great love, surpassing everything else, this kind of selfless love that does not ask for anything in return can often only become a regret.
Just like when she made a decision, turned around, and returned to Persia with Granny Jinhua, and exchanged the status of a saint for everyone's safety. Looking at the sea from the bow, she heard the sound of herself walking on the deck, But Zhang Wuji never heard her call Xiao Zhao again.
Life does not meet, moving like participating in business.
The moment before she left, she said to herself: "If time could be turned back, I would still be willing to return to the young master's side and be a little girl by his side."
It turned out that she was the most humble and purest person in love. The person standing on the shore, looking at the vast sea and a lonely boat going far away, felt that her heart was suddenly overflowing with endless sorrow and love.
And Zhao Min took a step forward without haste, and took Zhou Zhiruo's arm. Zhou Zhiruo was really startled. She was stunned for a moment, she looked at the lonely boat leaving in the distance, and felt that people were like travelers from afar, rubbing shoulders in a hurry. , the next time may be when we say goodbye.
——I felt sorry for Xiaozhao at the first glance, because I also had things that I didn't want to choose but had to deal with.
——Looking at the second glance, I thank Xiao Zhao for everyone. It is her sacrifice and perfection that brought everyone's safety.
——Looking at the side of the head for the last time and meeting the eyes of the person next to him, this is an emotion that is trying to hide and never see.
She finally made up her mind to push Zhao Min away.
[Master's will never be forgotten]
All the thumping instantly turned into silence..
Silently brewing a dignified atmosphere...
The author has something to say: I started to abuse...
It was a fluke to win this time, but both Yin Li and Zhao Min were seriously injured, and when they narrowly escaped death, Zhang Wuji thought that although Yin Li was his cousin, men and women could not get along with each other in the end, but Zhou Zhiruo hugged Zhao Min, and Granny Jinhua didn't know where she would settle down with Xiao Zhao, as for Xie Xun, it was even more inconvenient, and finally had to hug Yin Li.
Xie Xun admired the young man's profound internal strength, and was even more grateful in his heart. While helping him break the back, in case the Persians who had gone and returned would pursue him, at the same time, he made a little light work, and carried King Pingping to chase Zhang Wuji and others.
Several people hurried down the mountain, about a few feet away, when suddenly they heard the Miaofeng Envoy shouting in the distance: "Leave the Mingjiao traitor Xie Xun and King Pingping, or everyone will be killed."
Hearing this, Zhao Min was startled in panic, raised her hand in a daze, and went to pull Zhou Zhiruo, beckoning her to come over by her ear, and said, "Sister Zhou, get on the boat and sail away."
Zhou Zhiruo gave a general nod, conveyed the words to Zhang Wuji and Xie Xun, and after receiving his message, they ran faster.
But after a while, he had dodged to the shore, and after entering the cabin, Zhang Wuji shouted loudly: "Princess Shaomin has an order, and all the sailors set sail and anchor, and prepare to sail quickly."
It turns out that although this boat is called a fishing boat going out to sea, it is actually a refit of a gun boat. The helmsman and sailors on it are all under the orders of the Ruyang Palace. For that.
"Turn the rudder and let the boat go." The boatman waved his hand, and the sail jumped up. By the time the three Persian envoys who vowed not to give up chased him to the shore, the ship had already left the shore by tens of feet.
"Zhiruo, please help untie Miss Zhao's clothes, I'll check her injuries." As he spoke, Zhang Wuji turned his back to Zhou Zhiruo and Zhao Min, and turned to look at Yin Li.
The moment before Granny Jinhua left, it seemed that she wanted to put Yin Li to death. Fortunately, Yin Li was clever and avoided the vital acupuncture points. If not, she might be more than unconscious now.
On the other side, although Zhao Min was not drowsy, the sword wound on his lower abdomen was about half an inch deep, and his life was not harmed, but he was bleeding profusely, and his consciousness gradually became faint.
Ever since she was injured, Zhou Zhiruo couldn't help worrying deeply. Now whenever she touches the blood-stained clothing, it feels as if she's placed in an ice cave. It's colder than all the temperatures in her memory. I don't know if it's because the sea breeze is getting stronger or her heart is fluctuating. emotions at work.
"Sister Zhou, don't worry, I'm fine." Zhou Zhiruo kept hearing her talking, seeing her showing her face and smiling, her eyes and expressions were obviously forced, but she was so forced that she couldn't pick out a flaw.
However, Zhou Zhiruo didn't say a word.
〔Minmin〕, her lips were closed, but her heart called out the shortness of the name, the articulation, the intonation, and the ending sound hidden in self-blame, murmured repeatedly and silently back and forth, like a drizzle of rain secretly falling from the sky, Don't dare to be too flamboyant and take away the spring, don't dare to expose yourself too blatantly, showing worry and concern, and don't dare to take off the icy appearance to understand the voice of the heart.
Because the poisonous oath has been made and the will is entrusted, it is not because he dare not repent but because he does not want to violate his principles.
[Minmin, don't show up again when your injury heals]
In one sentence, there are three points of ruthless love for forcing oneself, five points should be resolute and firm, and the remaining two points are sister Zhou who is not evasive or dodges and easily loses her position.
In the blink of an eye, Zhao Min only showed the injured part. After Zhang Wuji applied medicine and bandaged Yin Li, he came to inspect her injury. During the process, he asked her how she was. He gritted his teeth and shook his head.
No matter how perfect the camouflage is, once you see the back of the chair in the cabin, it is like waves rolling over the sea. How can you hide your unsettled emotions?
The end of no answer is:
-- unknown
……
Looking past one, two, three eyes... stagnant like glue, don't rush, secretly, because the back view will never see the bright stars in other people's eyes.
When the sailors on the top shouted: "There is an enemy ship chasing from behind, everyone should take measures to deal with it."
First she was stunned for a moment, then hurriedly looked away, as expected, the next moment Zhou Zhiruo approached her, knelt down and looked at Zhao Min, her face was not anxious and worried like Zhang Wuji's, but calm and calm, Zhao Min endured Feeling the pain, he said slowly: "Sister Zhou, take my Yitian Sword, hid in the dark cabin together with Master Zhang and Senior Xie, and led the three Persian envoys aboard. Fight with them in the cabin, and take two large iron anchors from the deck, put them in the cabin, and use them as obstacles to force the three Persian envoys to fight on their own."
Zhou Zhiruo said: "Okay." Since the extinction of death, the first smile finally stuck to her cheeks as she wished, flicked the syllables overflowing from her lips, and then entered her ears quickly, Zhao Min couldn't help laughing with her, and bent the corners of her mouth.
Then she saw the figure of her taking the Yitian sword and watching her go away, the hasty and brief figure was enough to make people happy and relieved, she knew that Zhou Zhiruo had actually thought of this method.
Immediately after was the position arrangement, but what I never expected was that there was a sudden loud bang, and the violent side of the hull, followed by the sea water pouring in mid-air, poured straight into the cabin, and the sailors at the rear shouted loudly: "The enemy ship! Fire, the enemy ship fires, what shall we do?"
Zhou Zhiruo and Zhang Wuji's hearts sank at the same time, and they ran towards the cabin in a hurry, wanting to check whether Zhao Min and Yin Li were safe, when they were halfway there, they heard a voice from the cabin: "We also have cannons, in the lower cabin."
Hearing this, Zhang Wuji rushed to the deck immediately, commanded all the sailors to remove the cover on the cannon, put iron bullets in the cannon, ignited the burning rope, and with a bang, the cannon blasted past.
As for Zhou Zhiruo, she still entered the cabin where Zhao Min was. Zhao Min unconsciously showed a smile on her first step, and raised her voice, "Sister Zhou, I'm fine. Go out and help."
The final word was finalized, efficient and concise, Zhou Zhiruo felt her heart burning, she didn't dare to hesitate, she didn't dare to linger, and she didn't dare to turn around and walk out without a pause.
But as soon as he stepped out of the hatch, the ship kept spinning around, it turned out that the enemy ship hit the rudder just now, smashing the rudder to pieces, even the helmsman fell into the sea and died.
In desperation, countless thoughts flashed through Zhou Zhiruo's mind like lightning, and her thoughts went back and forth a thousand times. Finally, her shadow came to Zhang Wuji's side like a shooting star, and she said, "Brother Wuji, the sea water has already poured in. This boat can't Let’s go again, but when I was locked in the bilge, I accidentally found a boat made of masts tied to the side.”
"Really." Zhang Wuji was overjoyed, but he still asked, Zhou Zhiruo nodded, and then he took Xie Xun to push out the boat.
After a while, the gunboat gradually sank and the cabin was flooded. Zhang Wuji picked up Yin Li, Zhou Zhiruo picked up Zhao Min, Xie Xun picked up King Pingping, and everyone climbed onto the mast.
Except for Zhao Min and Yin Li, the others snatched the oars and rowed vigorously to stay away from the burning gunboat that was gradually sinking into the sea. As for the Persians, they must have never expected that they had a small boat, thinking that Zhang Wuji and others were buried in the sea , then no longer pursue.
……
During the boat trip, the few people did not dare to stop for a moment, because in the vast sea, if the enemy found out, the enemy boat would have to bombard it with a cannonball. Everyone has a long internal energy, rowing straight through the middle of the night without getting tired.
But at dawn, the cold wind blows the sea surface, and the ink turns raindrops, one drop, two drops, three drops...falling into a few pairs of eyes, Zhao Min watched Zhou Zhiruo drop the wooden paddle and slowly come towards her, eyes It's full of worry, full of my own reflection.
"This wound has just been covered with medicine, so it can't be exposed to the rain." Before Zhao Min had time to ask what to do, he was already hugged into his arms, and the sense of distance before was inexplicably shortened in this way.
"Sister Zhou, what are you doing?" Hearing this gentle and coquettish remark, Zhou Zhiruo's ears suddenly fell red, and she felt hot, so she was stunned for a while, and then said, "There is nothing that can block the rain. I can only..."
Zhao Min suddenly rubbed against Zhou Zhiruo's body, her hands couldn't help but hug her tightly, and the smile on her cheeks turned into a radiant dance, and she said softly, "I'll listen to sister Zhou."
Zhang Wuji was drawn back by the movement behind him, and the next moment he frowned, feeling bewildered, and after a quick glance at Yin Li, he met Zhou Zhiruo's eyes, and said: "Miss Princess, you won't be able to catch this little rain." Bar."
After saying that, he turned around and continued to paddle with the wooden oar, and the golden-haired lion beside him laughed loudly instead: "Others are a man and a woman, talented and beautiful, but Zeng Shaoxia has so many girls around him, it seems that he is really lucky."
"This... don't make fun of us." Zhang Wuji's heart suddenly burned, thinking of Xiao Zhao's innocence, Yin Li's words and laughter, and Zhou Zhiruo's gentleness like water.
"..." Zhou Zhiruo remained silent, lowered her head, and saw Zhao Min looking into her eyes, and said slowly: "Sister Zhou is beautiful, I feel pity for her, no wonder the old man also counts you in it .”
These words sound fine, but if you touch them carefully, they will be full of flaws. Xie Xun had lost his eyes more than 20 years ago, so how could he see Zhou Zhiruo's appearance?
"Also, old man, don't count me in. If you continue to talk nonsense, wait until I recover from my injury and see if I won't beat you up." Zhao Min's voice was loud, but there was no trace of anger.
As soon as she finished speaking, she raised her eyes and saw Zhou Zhiruo's brows and eyes glowing brightly, and a long smile stretched across her lips, occupying her field of vision. Zhao Min asked puzzledly, "Sister Zhou, why are you smiling?"
There was a slight ripple in the lake of heart, and then the sound of water slapping over came to my ears: "The princess is also beautiful."
The voice is so gentle, it seems to be talking to her, and it seems to be talking to herself.
"Sister Zhou has something in her words." The jade body in Zhou Zhiruo's arms hugged harder and harder, and now even the rainwater couldn't help but have the temperature, it was scalding hot for a while, and then slowly melted into this embrace.
If people have the power to freeze time, can they always be in their hearts when they meet for the first time when they are young...
If the Chonghua mirror can read the heart, thousands of words, and the smallest voice can be guessed without guessing...
If I were not the head of Emei, and you were not the head of Shaomin County, would we be different...
……
The heavy rain gradually subsided, and several people came to a small island. Zhang Wuji was afraid that the little girls would catch cold, so he hurriedly found a cave that could shelter from the wind and rain, and settled down temporarily.
"Zhang Wuji, you kid, why don't you want to go to Spirit Snake Island with me?" Yin Li muttered in sleep, hearing this, Zhang Wuji's heart sank, and he immediately went over and touched her forehead, burning his hand, Fang Knowing that she had a fever after being seriously injured, she started talking nonsense.
Then he wanted to take out his handkerchief to wipe off the sweat on Yin Li's forehead, but when he saw things, he remembered Han Shui and Zhou Zhiruo's meeting, his eyes filled with joy, then he glanced in Zhao Min's direction, and couldn't help but look at Zhou Zhiruo again After taking a look, he remembered the touch in his heart just now, and felt deeply humbled.
"Wuji, I beg you to come with me, you bit me so hard on the back of my hand, but I don't hate you at all..." The raving in the dream is pleading, humble, but the most true voice.
Some people are gentle and gentle, some are gentle like water, some are eccentric... But now some people can't see the clouds or the moon when they look up, but they can see the undulating water in the sea.
[Zhao Min, I don’t want to see you again, don’t come with me]
Zhou Zhiruo saw that Zhang Wuji was holding the handkerchief she had given him, and suddenly her eyes met. They looked at each other for a few seconds, and it became a cold and long night in Zhao Min's eyes. With Zhou Zhiruo's words wrapped around her, she felt even colder.
Everything seemed to be developing naturally, and the pictures flashed back slowly and profoundly in memory.
But no one knows which side's efforts to push away are more bitter.
[The Yitian Sword and the Dragon Saber are both on Spirit Snake Island now, should I...]
It was late at night, and the cool breeze was blowing up. Zhou Zhiruo turned over slightly, a smile seemed to occupy her eyes, and Zhao Minjiao's beautiful face glowed with brilliance, and she was tied to her body.
Gentle and lively.
For some reason, she felt a burning sensation in her heart, and she gently touched Zhao Min's slightly trembling eyelashes with her outstretched hand. Sister, I'm so cold."
A lingering smile disappeared in an instant, and instead brought out a worry as heavy as a boulder.
"Minmin." Without even thinking about it, she leaned over, embraced the jade body in her arms, and burned her heart with a different kind of body temperature. It turns out that the invisible distance is only drawn closer in the dead of night.
[Sister Zhou, this is the first time I hear you calling me like that]
The person pretending to be asleep held back for a second, two seconds, three seconds... Finally, the corners of his lips involuntarily raised slightly, so that he could smile longer and the night longer, which is a good idea.
[Sister Zhou, you still care about Minmin, right?]
For some reason, she just felt an overwhelming warmth pouring into her heart, as if she closed her eyes and still had a good dream, and when she opened her eyes, it was spring in the world.
And let her whisper in her heart, calling her thousands of times:
——Sister Zhou
……
The moonlight on the sea, the lonely island in the quiet night, and the morning sun, Zhang Wuji took advantage of everyone's mood to calm down, and met Xie Xun.
"Father, the child is not filial..." It turned out that Xie Xun was living on Binghuo Island many years ago. He had sworn vows with Zhang Cuishan and Yin Susu, and adopted the couple's newborn son as his adoptive son. The name is Xie Wuji.
After Zhang Wuji returned to the Central Plains, he changed his surname to Zhang Cuishan. As for him, he lived on Binghuo Island for about 20 years before being taken to Spirit Snake Island by Zishan Dragon King Dai Qisi, that is, Granny Jinhua.
For so many years, he has been able to avoid the pursuit of the enemies of the rivers and lakes because of holding the dragon sword in his hand, and he has been asking Granny Jinhua to go to the Central Plains to inquire about Zhang Wuji.
For several years, there has been no news, but now the person who thinks about it is the young man who is right in front of him.
"Brother Wuji, it's a wish." Her voice was very soft, and the smile on her face was very shallow, but somehow it made Zhao Min feel a little panicked, and asked, "Sister Zhou is happy."
Zhou Zhiruo said "Yes", she knew that Zhang Wuji had lost his parents since he was a child, and now that he met Xie Xun, she didn't know how many endless bitter memories and countless turmoil in the world, she thought she was really happy for him.
"Miss Zhao, is this fruit not to your liking?" Zhao Min took a bite of the fruit that Zhou Zhiruo handed over, and then stopped. After hearing this sentence, she muttered in a low voice, "You called me Minmin last night, why now?" Change your mouth if you say it."
Then he replied: "I don't like it, you can give it to your brother Wuji to eat."
After speaking, she lay down and turned around, but Zhou Zhiruo stopped her with her hand: "This will touch the wound."
The gentle and lingering voice brushed past his ears, and a little search and worry made Zhao Min's expression very different from Shicai's again.
"Minmin, why don't you turn around?" Worrying made her lose her sense of size. Although the two syllables overflowing unconsciously in front were as thin as mosquitoes, they were still heard by Zhao Min. She turned around, but Zhou Zhiruo got up in a hurry. turned away.
The moment before leaving, Zhou Zhiruo only felt her heart pounding.
"Sister Zhou, where are you going? My wound hurts again, won't you come and take care of me?" Zhao Min said in a very serious voice with a loud voice.
Zhou Zhiruo's footsteps became faster and faster, her face was like the scorching sun, and she ran out, Zhang Wuji was puzzled, thinking what was wrong with her, so she chased after her.
"Zhang Wuji, why are you chasing him?" The voice was like five thunderclaps, terrifyingly loud.
On the other side, as soon as Zhou Zhiruo came out of the cave, her steps slowed down. She was still thinking about the Yitian Sword and the Dragon Saber, but after a while, her mouth was suddenly covered by someone, she was dragged into the grass, and squatted down. down.
"Brother Wuji." Zhang Wuji raised his finger and put it against his lips, signaling her to keep quiet. It turned out that there was a sneaky figure in front of him, which aroused his vigilance.
"It looks familiar." Zhou Zhiruo murmured in a low voice, but suddenly Zhang Wuji shouted, "It's Xiao Zhao."
As soon as the words were finished, the two of them had moved to Xiao Zhao's side, asking why they knew that the Persians had already caught up with them, and they seemed to be searching for them on a large scale.
It is inconvenient to speak right now, Zhang Wuji brought Xiao Zhao and Zhou Zhiruo back to the cave, as soon as they entered, Zhao Min's eyes first fell on Xiao Zhao, and then froze on Zhou Zhiruo, pouted in an inaudible tone: "Sister Zhou, You were not here just now, and my wound hurts again."
Zhou Zhiruo walked towards her as she wished, and sat next to Zhao Min, her face was indifferent, she didn't ask any questions, she just quietly accompanied her, her eyes fixed on Xiao Zhao.
"My lord, please hurry up and save my mother..." Xiao Zhao suddenly knelt down, which really scared everyone present.
After helping her up, Xiao Zhao roughly told what happened before. Grandma Jinhua was her biological mother. After Xie Xun and others left, Granny Jinhua and Xiao Zhao came to look for them. He has been obsessed with the Dragon Saber in Xie Xun's hand, unexpectedly there is a member of the beggar gang named Chen Youliang, who followed closely behind with a Persian.
In order to protect Xiao Zhao, he was seriously injured and captured by the Persians. As for Xiao Zhao, who was not good at martial arts, he ran away in a panic, and happened to meet Zhou Zhiruo and Zhang Wuji.
Right now, there are rows of large ships parked in the west of the island, each white sail is painted with a big red flower flame, and black ribbons are hung on the sails, and the flames are flickering at the northwest corner where the sea and the sky meet, presumably Xiao Zhao was very worried that Granny Jinhua was going to be burned alive, so she had to tell Zhang Wuji the truth and begged him to go and save Granny Jinhua.
"You are Han Qianye's child. You are hiding your identity in Mingjiao. Do you have any intentions?" After listening to Xiao Zhao's words, the Golden Retriever Lion King felt suspicious and asked sharply.
Xiao Zhao nodded with tears in her eyes, but knelt down in front of Zhang Wuji again, and pleaded slowly: "My lord, there is a reason for Xiao Zhao to join Mingjiao, but Xiao Zhao has never betrayed you, nor has he ever betrayed Mingjiao. Go save my mother, and then punish Xiao Zhao, or those Persians will really burn my mother to death, son, please."
Zhang Wuji was originally a soft-hearted person. When he saw Xiao Zhao crying, he wanted to respond. As for Zhao Min, in order to ease Xiao Zhao's heart, he narrated his thoughts: "Miss Xiao Zhao, don't worry. Mother should be safe, if my guess is right, they should want us to negotiate, otherwise why make a big fuss and let us know that your mother is going to be burned to death, let alone we have hostages in our hands, so you don't have to panic for now , Let Master Zhang go talk to them."
"Miss Zhao is right, Xiao Zhao, I will go with you to save your mother now." Xiao Zhao was not very grateful, and hurried to rescue Granny Jinhua with Zhang Wuji.
As for Zhou Zhiruo who was on the side, although she was silent, she showed a very faint smile when Zhao Min finished speaking, presumably all smart people knew it by heart.
"Sister Zhou, I suddenly feel that the wound hurts so much. Could it be that I just said too much, and it took most of my strength to do it." The words inside and outside the heart sink, and I can't help but worry, but in fact, the tone can't help but laugh. During the speech, Zhou Zhiruo's clothes were tugged countless times.
"..." Zhou Zhiruo didn't say anything, she lowered her head, knowing that Zhao Min did it on purpose, she felt her stomach burning slightly, she wanted to cooperate with her in looking at the wound, or ignored it.
While hesitating, Xie Xun suddenly said in a slow voice: "Zhou girl, is it true that the daughter of the princess is seriously injured, why are you yelling this and that every day, it makes my ears callused."
Zhou Zhiruo pursed her lips in a familiar way, glanced at Zhao Min with her brimming eyes, and then replied softly, "Miss Zhao is indeed seriously injured, but..." She should be recovering soon.
The ending sound was as small as a mosquito, and suddenly choked in his throat. Xie Xun didn't hear it all, he was still worried, he sighed, and then continued to talk: "But it's no wonder, Miss Zhou is so gentle and considerate, princess The girl suffered such a serious injury, it seems that it is justifiable to pester Zhou girl all day long."
"Lion King, you can talk nonsense." Zhou Zhiruo couldn't help but panic when she saw that Zhao Min opened her mouth. She paused and said again, "How can I pester Sister Zhou all day long?"
Hearing this, Xie Xun laughed teasingly: "No, no, it seems that I am not only blind, but my ears are also old and useless, so I mishear."
Sure enough, Zhao Min gave Xie Xun a nasty look, then silently pursed her lips and puffed up her cheeks. The small expression was caught in Zhou Zhiruo's eyes, and she said softly with an inaudible smile, "The wound is still hurting now."
This is what he meant on the surface, but Zhao Min heard [You still want to keep pestering me], Zhao Min understood and shook his head.
Seeing this, Zhou Zhiruo's smile dissipated in her heart like waves on the sea, turbulently hitting her, but her face became calm in a blink of an eye, without any waves.
As for Zhang Wuji, about half an hour later, the three of them came back safely. As Zhao Min expected, the person they captured was King Pingping, the sixth king of the Twelve Treasure Trees. As long as they dared to burn Jinhua to death Mother-in-law, the King of Equality is sure to die, so the Persians dare not bet on the safety of the King of Equality.
"Zhiruo, Miss Zhao, adoptive father, are you alright?" Seeing that Zhang Wuji came back safe and sound with Xiao Zhao and Granny Jinhua, they were overjoyed and nodded in response to Zhang Wuji's question.
As for Granny Jinhua, who was rescued by Zhang Wuji in such a catastrophe, she was not very grateful in her heart, so besides being apologetic to Xie Xun, she was also full of gratitude.
But the Persians are very cunning, not to mention there is a pretentious Chen Youliang next to them, how can they let Zhang Wuji and the others go easily, unexpectedly, the golden flower mother-in-law is actually the bait for them to catch big fish with a long line.
"What's the smell?" Zhao Min was the quickest to respond, and a few words came out of her mind vigilantly.
"Zhiruo, take care of everyone here, I'll go out and have a look." Hearing Zhao Min's words, Zhang Wuji's eyes were full of concern, and he jumped out of the cave for a moment of anxiety.
But after a while, Zhang Wuji came back with a face as heavy as a boulder, and he said panickedly: "Let's go quickly, outside..."
Before he could finish his words, the great sage king who held the holy fire order had already shouted loudly at the entrance of the cave: "Listen people inside, the outside is already surrounded by us, full of zhayao, as long as you release the king of equality, the king of treasure trees Forgive his guilt, which is more lenient than pardon, and you will be safe."
Xie Xun smiled sharply, and replied loudly: "You think I, Xie, is a three-year-old child. Once we release the prisoners, you can still withdraw the prison? Why don't we still light it as usual, how can we leave safely?"
There was a moment of silence outside, and then the voice became smooth again: "Golden Retriever Lion King, you don't want to toast and eat fine wine. If you don't release King Equality, we will light zhayao now."
"Father, let the child go out and fight with them." Zhang Wuji said angrily, Xie Xun raised his hand to stop him from continuing, and then shouted outside the cave, "Listen, people outside, as long as you promise us three conditions , I, Xie Xun, promise to send the head church members out respectfully."
"What conditions?" The man said, Xie Xun slowly said the conditions one by one, "First, from now on, the chief teacher and the Mingjiao of Zhongtu will respect each other and not interfere with each other."
Persia is far away from Middle-earth, as long as there is no contact, there will be no interference. The man responded loudly. Seeing this, Xie Xun continued to raise the corners of his mouth loudly: "Secondly, Dai Qisi is not allowed to be prosecuted for the crime of losing her virginity."
Dai Qisi, as the saint of Pasha, fell in love with Han Qianye, gave birth to Xiao Zhao, and violated the rules of the head teacher. In terms of punishment, she should be burned. But Dai Qisi, even Granny Jinhua and Xie Xun have a friendship with Jinlan, Xie Xun took this opportunity to try to protect her safety.
"Do you agree to this condition or not?" He didn't hear the man's voice, so he knew they were still wandering around.
After an unknown amount of time, the man suddenly said in a hurry: "What is Xie Xun's third thing? Tell me first."
"You can't agree to the second thing, let alone the third thing?" Xie Xun retorted.
"Okay, let's accept the second one, let's talk about the third one." The tone was neither serious nor serious, but it could not help but arouse people's vigilance.
Before Xie Xun could say the third thing, Zhao Min had already stepped forward and said: "Now retreat to the shore and prepare two boats. After we sail fifty li away, if we don't see you sending a big boat to chase after us, we will put the prisoners in The boat, let you take it with you."
The man was furious and shouted: "Nonsense, nonsense."
Xie Xun and the others were all startled, not knowing what he was talking about, Zhao Min smiled at Zhou Zhiruo, "Sister Zhou and the others are talking nonsense, I don't know if it's because they don't learn Chinese well, or if it's what they say in Persian Mingjiao. "
Now that the situation is tense, Zhao Min still smiled brightly, Zhou Zhiruo also bent her lips following Ninjun when she saw her like this.
At this moment, there was a sudden bang, and a big hole was blown out at the back of the cave, which made Zhang Wuji and the others ring in their ears, and they immediately formed a group back to back, and the Persians took the opportunity to send people to fill up the back of the cave. People, only said: "Xie Xuner and others have also seen the power of this zayao, so they quickly released King Equality, we can agree to your first two conditions."
"Don't trust them." Zhao Min endured the pain and said anxiously, "As long as we have hostages in our hands, they dare not detonate all the bombs, just to scare us, but now the cave is surrounded by Persians, and there are zayas nearby. , I am afraid it will be even more difficult for us to escape safely.”
Of course, the Persians didn't have that much patience to spend with Zhang Wuji and the others. After several discussions and considerations, they sent people into the cave to snatch King Pingping back.
In desperation, Chen Youliang proposed to set fire to the entrance of the cave, and use thick smoke to suffocate Zhang Wuji and others, forcing them to come out.
"Ahem..." Sure enough, after a while, the cave was already gray, and someone outside the cave shouted loudly, "Daikis is a traitor to our sect, Xie Xun, you just need to cut off her head. Send King Pingping out again, we will immediately put out the fire and let you and the others go."
The Persian's love and righteousness towards Xie Xun is like a shoal, floating on the surface, but not deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, so how do you know that he is the golden flower mother-in-law who would rather die than betray Jinlan.
"Madam Han, don't worry, I, Xie Xun, will not betray you even if I die." Hearing this, Granny Jinhua couldn't help her eyes welling up, and she replied to Xie Xun, "Third brother, old lady, I have never said such a thing in my life. Thank you, today I would like to thank my third brother for defending me with all his strength regardless of previous suspicions."
"Where did you say that, since the day we sworn obeisance, our Four Great Dharma Kings have never thanked you for anything. They are all from our own family. As an elder brother, we should protect you." One sentence, two sentences, three sentences... Shang Yang is not very grateful The voice echoed in the ears, and the golden flower mother-in-law hid the ocean in her eyes, looking at everyone when the tide rose and fell.
Zhao Min couldn't help approaching Zhou Zhiruo, his vision was filled with tenderness as bright as the moonlight, and he said slowly, "Sister Zhou, are you afraid?"
"What are you afraid of?" The voice twisted curiously and tremblingly.
"If they ignore the hostages and light gunpowder, we will all be buried here, or maybe we will be choked to death by the thick smoke, are you afraid?" Zhao Min said jokingly.
"Not afraid." Zhou Zhiruo's expression was as calm as water.
It seems to be answering Zhao Min's question, and it seems to be telling myself [with Minmin by my side, what is there to be afraid of], the unconscious voice will always be understood at a certain moment.
She is a person who is soft on the outside and strong on the inside, and there is an inexplicable sense of distance on the surface, but for some reason, the coldness under her skin seems to always be cold for a moment because of one person. Turning his head to look at the person sitting next to him, suddenly it is like a prairie fire meets a downpour, and the white snow meets a spring breeze, the fire extinguishes and the grass grows, and the ice melts and the snow melts.
She looked into Zhao Min's eyes, and said slowly: "The daughter of the princess should not have suffered much, and now we are here on the verge of life and death, do you regret that you knew this earlier, why don't you come to this Spirit Snake Island? "
"I don't regret it." The three words on the lips actually wanted to say [Min Minte Moore doesn't regret coming to the Spirit Snake Island with Zhou Zhiruo]. a way of expression.
Little did they know that Zhou Zhiruo's heart was also moved when she heard the words.
[Minmin doesn't regret saving me and come here with me to suffer? 〕
She showed her face radiantly, and suddenly wanted to continue asking, so that the questions in her heart could be understood, but she couldn't, because another voice came from her heart.
[Zhiruo, you promised to be your teacher, take back the Yitian Sword and the Dragon Slaying Saber, and make Emei famous, don’t forget these]
Extinction spoke to her, and she was speaking to herself.
This side is the same, and the other side is also the same, Xiao Zhao has looked at Zhang Wuji countless times, with inexhaustible nostalgia, Jinhua Granny's eyes are already bright, she sneers: "Xiao Zhao, come here."
Everyone followed the sound and looked over, and saw Xiao Zhao walking slowly towards Granny Jinhua, stopped in front of her, and heard her say: "Xiao Zhao, you have grown up now, and you have your own choices and ideas, mother I haven’t been by your side all these years, the only thing I can do for you now is to protect you.”
Knowing what she meant, Xiao Zhao shook her head with tears in her eyes, but Granny Jinhua continued: "Ever since I married your father, I knew that such a day would come, maybe this is my fate, now it's time to return to the place that belongs to me. place."
Speaking of this, she felt an inexplicable pain in her heart, and she stepped forward and hugged Xiao Zhao into her arms: "Mother has nothing else to ask, but I hope that you will not be like my mother, hiding in Tibet, and live a peaceful life. Mother can feel at ease even under the Nine Springs."
As soon as she said that, she pushed Xiao Zhao away, raised her jade hand, and took off her white hair, revealing black silk like a cloud, and climbed up to the edge of her face with her other hand, peeling off a layer of skin.
Zhang Wuji and the others were shocked, but in an instant, they had turned into a beautiful woman with creamy skin, almond eyes and peach cheeks.
"Mother, I'll go with you." Zhang Wuji and the others were so shocked that their mouths were still closed, and then they heard Xiao Zhao say, "Mother has sacrificed so much for Dad, I think I should do something for the person I like, only I will go with you, they will not deal with you, so I will go too."
"Do you know what you're talking about?" Granny Jinhua immediately shouted in a stern voice.
"I know." There is a kind of love in the world called letting go and fulfillment. When you meet when you are young, it is not too early or too late, because the love that is unforgettable enough is not to be possessed.
Xiao Zhao's love for Zhang Wuji is great love, surpassing everything else, this kind of selfless love that does not ask for anything in return can often only become a regret.
Just like when she made a decision, turned around, and returned to Persia with Granny Jinhua, and exchanged the status of a saint for everyone's safety. Looking at the sea from the bow, she heard the sound of herself walking on the deck, But Zhang Wuji never heard her call Xiao Zhao again.
Life does not meet, moving like participating in business.
The moment before she left, she said to herself: "If time could be turned back, I would still be willing to return to the young master's side and be a little girl by his side."
It turned out that she was the most humble and purest person in love. The person standing on the shore, looking at the vast sea and a lonely boat going far away, felt that her heart was suddenly overflowing with endless sorrow and love.
And Zhao Min took a step forward without haste, and took Zhou Zhiruo's arm. Zhou Zhiruo was really startled. She was stunned for a moment, she looked at the lonely boat leaving in the distance, and felt that people were like travelers from afar, rubbing shoulders in a hurry. , the next time may be when we say goodbye.
——I felt sorry for Xiaozhao at the first glance, because I also had things that I didn't want to choose but had to deal with.
——Looking at the second glance, I thank Xiao Zhao for everyone. It is her sacrifice and perfection that brought everyone's safety.
——Looking at the side of the head for the last time and meeting the eyes of the person next to him, this is an emotion that is trying to hide and never see.
She finally made up her mind to push Zhao Min away.
[Master's will never be forgotten]
All the thumping instantly turned into silence..
