Chapter 25
"However, in the past 300 years, we have had too much grievances with the people of the Central Plains. Even if my father wanted to stop the war, there is still no one in the church to support him."

"That's exactly what worries me."

"What is the old man worried about?"

"The leader has extremely high prestige within the sect. Even if he was seriously injured in the decisive battle with Zhu Rangu, why would Chang Xiaotian dare to rebel?"

"What does the old man mean?"

"What I mean is, is it because the news of the sect master's reconciliation with the people of the Central Plains has been leaked? Hundreds of years of enmity, the hatred for the people of the Central Plains has been carved into the bones of the people. Only in this way will the people be dissatisfied. Often Laughing geniuses may incite people to rebel against the leader."

Yan Wuxin nodded, feeling that the old man's words were very reasonable, and said: "But, except for you and me, father didn't tell anyone else this news."

"Did no one tell?"

"As far as I know, even Uncle Chang didn't tell, nor did the dishonest monk."

The old man nodded, if Chang Xiaotian and Monk Misconduct didn't tell him, then he wouldn't tell Sikong Mie, Gongsun Mie and Duanmuqing.

"So, no one knows except you and me, right?"

"should be."

"This is strange. Since no one knows, why did the news leak?"

Yan Wuxin suddenly said: "Father said that he once asked Uncle Chang about this matter. Could it be that Uncle Chang guessed it because of this?"

The old master could not think of other possibilities, and said after a while: "It is not impossible. Now Chang Xiaotian has the support of three of the five elders, and he has the upper hand among the five elders."

Yan Wuxin didn't need to ask, he knew who the three elders were, they must be Duanmuqing, Sikongmi, and Gongsunmie.Because of the other two elders, the old man escorted him away, and the dishonest monk came back from the mountain with him, and he never liked Uncle Chang, and Uncle Chang didn't believe him, so it was impossible for him to participate in Uncle Chang's plot.

"Hey, I don't know how my father is doing now."

"With the prestige of the leader, even if Chang Xiaotian traps the leader, he doesn't dare to touch the leader."

The old man said so, but in fact he had no idea in his heart. Based on the news he heard when he came, it seemed that the leader was already under Chang Xiaotian's control.As for whether Chang Xiaotian would dare to harm the leader, that's hard to say.

Yan Wuxin heard the old man's insincere words, he sighed, and stopped asking, it seems that his father may be in danger.

The old man suddenly asked: "Miss Xi'er also knows about the truce between the leader and the people of the Central Plains?"

Xi'er didn't expect the old man to ask her, and didn't know why the old man suddenly asked her, so she was speechless for a while.

"No, Xi'er doesn't know. Father told me not to tell anyone." Yan Wuxin knew that the old uncle was suspicious of Xi'er. In fact, Xi'er knew that his father wanted to reconcile with the people from the Central Plains, so he told him that day. She did.Yan Wuxin believed that Xi'er would never tell others, but Yan Wuxin was afraid that the old man would not believe it, so he told a little lie.

The old man remained silent, not knowing whether he believed it or not.The sky was getting dark gradually, the old man was driving on the mountain road, the mountain road was difficult, Yan Wuxin and Xi'er were sitting in the carriage, their bones were about to fall apart.

"Old uncle, we have been riding in the carriage, will it be too slow?"

"The Xiangjiang River is not far ahead. When we arrive at the Xiangjiang River, we will take a boat and turn to the Wujiang River via the Xiangjiang River. If we go eastward in less than two days, we will be able to leave the sphere of influence of the Jiuyou Sect. Then we will be safe."

Yan Wuxin didn't know geography, and thought that since the old uncle said so, there must be some arrangements, so he nodded immediately.

"Young master, it's still a while before we reach the Xiangjiang River, so you should sleep for a while."

"it is good,"

Yan Wuxin agreed, but in the car, although the car was covered with fur, the mountain road was uneven, and the car kept bumping, how could Yan Wuxin, who was always pampered, sleep? Xi'er couldn't sleep either, so Yan Wuxin hugged her Xi'er, lean on the car.

After another hour or so, they finally arrived at the riverside, Yan Wuxin and Xi'er got out of the car, and saw that a small boat had already been prepared by the riverside. "

Without asking any further questions, Yan Wuxin dragged Xi'er onto the boat together.

"Young master, let's sleep for a while. I'll call you young master when it's over."

Yan Wuxin didn't say much, he pulled Xi'er to sit down, and leaned side by side in the cabin.The boat was much more stable than the carriage, but Yan Wuxin was fleeing, and he thought of his father's life and death, so how could he fall asleep? Suddenly it came to shore.

"We've reached the shore. Have we left the Jiuyou Sect's territory, old uncle?"

"It's still far away, how could it be possible to arrive in such a short time?"

"Then how did it land?"

"I originally came from the south of Xiangjiang River, passing through the Wujiang River, and headed eastward, which is the fastest. But I thought, if I didn't gather at the main altar, Chang Xiaotian will soon know that I have escaped with the young master. They must have blocked the waterway first. We will be at the confluence of the Xiangjiang River and the Wujiang River, and people from the Jiuyou Sect must be there to investigate, so let’s go ashore early, and then head north.”

"North? We came from the north by boat, and now we go north, isn't it a waste of time. And we have a border with the Central Plains forces in the west and east. If we want to go to the Central Plains, going north is the farthest way."

"That's right, we are fleeing. It stands to reason that we should take the shortest route, the sooner the better. However, since we can think of it, and Chang Xiaotian can think of it too, let's do the opposite. To the north, you can walk to the place guarded by Youshui Envoy in two days. He has a good relationship with me, and he is loyal to the leader. When he comes to his place, he will be safe."

Yan Laoxin has always been in the church, and has never traveled far. The farthest was nearly a month, to a city a hundred miles away, but he was also brought by an unscrupulous monk.Now I don't know what to do when I go out, so naturally it's up to the old man to decide, and said: "Just listen to the old uncle."

When I got to the shore and entered the woods on the shore, there were already two teachers waiting there, preparing three fast horses.It was only then that Yan Wuxin knew that the old uncle had already made arrangements, and Yan Wuxin fled with the old man all the way, feeling uneasy, seeing that the old man had already made arrangements, he felt a little relieved.

There are three horses, the old man rides one, Xi'er doesn't know how to ride a horse, so Yan Wuxin rides with her.The other one was led by the old man, and when the horse under Yan Wuxin's seat couldn't run anymore, he changed the horse for Yan Wuxin.

The three horses are all good horses selected from thousands of miles, and their pace is not slow.The three of them walked all night until dawn. They reached a narrow mountain road and walked all night. I've been walking all night, and I'm a little tired, can you find a place to rest?"

"I was entrusted by the leader to keep the young master safe. Although we have been walking all night, we are not walking fast. If Chang Xiaotian is aware of it, we will catch up soon. It is better to rest in a safe place."

"But I'm so sleepy."
