devil may cry

Chapter 21. Approaching

He woke up.

Dressed in white clothes, he was leaning on Xue Luoqian's shoulder.

It’s over.

This was Bei Mingyan's first thought.

It must be that he didn't pay attention, and leaned over after falling asleep. He didn't know when he fell asleep, and he didn't know how long he slept. Farther and farther away until blurred and disappearing.Open your eyes again, that's it.

how to do

This is the second one.

He could feel the top of his head pressed against Xue Luoqian's neck, and there was a slight breathing sound from his head. Xue Luoqian didn't move, and he didn't dare to move.

Do you want to pretend to roll off his shoulders, and deal with it in a daze?

This is the third one.

After thinking about it, he had already made up his mind: just do it like this, fall forward for a while, and the rest depends on acting.

There was a light rain outside the cave, and they sat facing the entrance of the cave, and the branches and leaves hanging from the top covered half of the small cave entrance.

Just now they escaped in a hurry and slid directly down from the small slope above. Xue Luoqian, dressed in white, slid into the dust at the entrance of the cave, with a few leaves in his hair, without frowning, but turned around naturally to push aside for him. up branches.

Bei Mingyan didn't know why he thought of these details, and leaned on Xue Luoqian, staring at Xiao Yu with ecstasy, gradually forgetting his plan.

I don't know where trust comes from, where familiarity comes from, and why my heart is stable and throbbing.

The sky gradually darkened, the rain did not retreat but increased, and the sound became louder and louder, which made people feel more and more disturbed.Bei Mingyan suddenly noticed that Xue Luoqian's arms hadn't moved at all, maintaining this somewhat elevated posture, allowing him to sleep.He moved, and made a slight gesture. It was originally just a preview, but this subtle movement still caught Xue Luoqian's attention. He raised his right hand and put his arms around Bei Mingyan's shoulder: "Be careful."

But I, I haven't rolled down yet...

Bei Mingyan held his breath and did not answer.

Xue Luoqian said again: "The time has not yet come. If you are tired, just lean on for a while."

Bei Mingyan wanted to find a hole to bury himself.

Co-author Xue Luoqian not only did not fall asleep, but also knew that he was awake!The matter has come to this point, and I can't hold back any longer, Bei Mingyan raised his head: "You..." Suddenly there was a pain in the neck, well, not only blushing but also frowning now!It must be ugly...he still thinks it's better to lean back...and it's good for everyone!

Xue Luoqian raised his hand to support his own neck, pressed it on the back of his neck and said, "Knock it twice and it will be fine."

Do it, keep your head down and obediently do it like a child.

"Head up."

"It doesn't hurt anymore..."

Xue Luoqian nodded, and looked at him quietly. Bei Mingyan originally felt that he would blush so hard that he couldn't hide his blushing, but when he stared at him, he felt even hotter, his whole head was hot!

"You, when did you wake up?"

Xue Luoqian shook his head: "I didn't sleep, I'm afraid someone will come."

Only he slept.For some reason, Bei Mingyan thought of Mi Chong: "Then, you know that I...waked up just now?" Just say it, if you fight it out, at least you can get a reputation for being brave.

Xue Luoqian replied truthfully: "I know."

"I..." wanted to explain, but didn't know how to speak, Xue Luoqian had an expression of "Is there any problem", as if it was nothing to him.

Bei Mingyan thought about it, maybe people in the Central Plains don't think it's a big deal, or maybe people in Jianghu are used to it, maybe... it's a normal thing between brothers?If he said it, wouldn't it appear that he was very mean?Preoccupied?Even such a trivial matter has to be explained?Will Xue Luoqian find him annoying?

If he is not surprised, then... Bei Mingyan couldn't help looking over Xue Luoqian's shoulder, and was about to lose control of his wild thoughts, when suddenly there was an endless noise outside.

Both of them stood up and leaned against the wall to listen. The voices gradually became clear from far to near: a few male voices urged to go quickly, and a group of female voices were crying and dawdling.

Xue Luoqian made a "don't move" gesture to him, walked to the entrance of the cave and looked through the scattered branches: it was Xie Liang's group of men in black, there were a dozen or so left, and they were driving a group of seventeen or eighteen people. The girl was walking down the mountain. The girl was wearing herbal clothes, and the bamboo basket was no longer there. They surrounded each other one by one, and they were pushed and shoved away with tears in their eyes.

There were nearly 30 of them in a group, Xue Luoqian looked around, without Xie Liang, naturally he would not see his Fengshan.

A group of people went down the mountain along the path not far away, and the voices of people gradually faded away. Xue Luoqian turned around and was about to speak when he saw Bei Mingyan behind him, with a rather worried expression on his face.

This hole was naturally formed, narrow and uneven, and he turned around and suddenly faced Bei Mingyan at close range. Normally he would not let people get close, but he was shocked when he didn't defend himself at this moment.

But Bei Mingyan didn't respond, staring at their distant figures, frowned and said: "They..."

Xue Luoqian glanced at the bone flute in his hand. He was holding the flute so hard that his joints turned white: "The mortician must be nearby."

"Is your injury better?"

"It's okay." Just now, after two hours of cross-legged energy gathering, it's almost alright, but the sword is not in hand, so I feel a little hesitant in my heart: "Go down the mountain?"

Bei Mingyan nodded: "Those people must have gone crazy just now. They robbed women and common people in broad daylight. I was afraid that Xie Liang would catch them and go back to..." His eagerness was different from the eagerness when he confronted Xie Liang. Xue Luo Qian looked at him for a while, then said: "Okay. You are on the sidelines."

"You lost your sword, why not..."

"what?"

"...I know that a sneak attack is not an act of a gentleman, but you were injured because of me, and Fengshan also..." He was about to take something out of his pocket, but he hesitated and faltered.

It should be guns and hidden weapons.

Seeing this, Xue Luoqian said: "Who says it's not the work of a gentleman?"

Bei Mingyan was taken aback for a moment, and some thoughts were suppressed just as they were about to pop into his head: "Okay, follow them."

The way down the mountain was not smooth, the two of them had excellent lightness kung fu, they followed carefully, the girls walked slowly, and it took a lot of effort to go down the mountain.

Originally, Bei Mingyan was worried all the way that Xie Liang had recruited more people to seal the mountain, and it would be more troublesome to break through and seize the sword.He has decided that if the mountain is closed, he must do his best to let Xue Luoqian get the sword and save those girls. They all withdrew.

Bei Mingyan looked at Xue Luoqian frequently, and thought of many sets of arguments. Xue Luoqian seemed to know what he was thinking. When they followed Xie Liang's people all the way to the inn, Xue Luoqian finally thought of what to say: "Others can't use Fengshan well, and it will only hurt their own internal strength."

Bei Mingyan blurted out, "Is it only you?"

"No," Xue Luoqian did not expect to deny it, and said with complicated eyes: "I am the same."

Originally, Bei Mingyan thought they would call the corpse craftsman to repeat the old tricks like catching Yue girls, but he never expected that these dozen or so people would take these girls and live in the inn before they went up the mountain. So they stayed, and the girls all remained silent.

"Could it be... Soul Seizing?"

Taking advantage of the darkness, the two entered the inn from the room. The other party had dozens of people and lived in more than a dozen rooms. Some of them were opened next to the room they opened in the afternoon. The door was unlocked and there was no sound. .

Xue Luoqian shook his head, and said in a deep voice, "It's not like that." The soul-robbers were like walking corpses, but when those girls entered the inn, they were all sad, weeping but fearful.

"I'm afraid they will leave tomorrow and rest here tonight."

Bei Mingyan said: "Why not save him now?"

"If they are poisoned, who can cure them?" Xue Luoqian said, "You only have one antidote."

"I..." In the past, he could make as much medicine as he wanted.

Xue Luoqian's eyes swept over his hands: "Follow them all the way tomorrow, maybe we can find a den of thieves."

This makes sense.No matter what the reason is for those girls to shut up and dare not speak out, it will not be a good thing, this is not the time to act rashly.

Bei Mingyan nodded, looking still worried, Xue Luoqian said again: "I will give Luo Bei a revision letter when I return to my room, and ask him to send someone to keep an eye on it. This is Lingnan, and the Xue family will never It’s a disadvantage, and the other party is bringing big living people.”

"If you really want to use them as bone flutes, you must feed them well before using them."

His words were extremely sincere, he explained every sentence clearly, with a comforting look on his face, and when he talked about it later, Bei Mingyan felt that it was difficult for him, so he kept nodding his head and walked back to his room with him.

When they came, they never expected to stay overnight. At this moment, only this room was piled up with a load of clothes brought by them. Bei Mingyan stretched out his hand to push the door, and began to think wildly in his mind: They have been seen by Xie Liang's subordinates. It's really not a wise move to take a room, but now...he was in a daze, and Xue Luoqian behind him suddenly took his shoulders and pushed him to the door!

In such a split second, a dagger had already silently climbed onto Xue Luoqian's slender neck, and the sharp blade scraped off traces of blood. Although the move was unexpected, Xue Luoqian was able to push it away. Kaibei Mingyan, he should be able to dodge, but he didn't dodge.

A crooked little red flower was engraved on the handle of the dagger. Bei Mingyan stood very close, and recognized it in the dim moonlight: "Ayun!"

The other party said coldly: "Close the door." But it was Ye Xiaoyun's voice, the boyish voice was chilly, Bei Mingyan thought he didn't recognize them: "Ayun! Put down the dagger, it's Luo Qian!"

Xue Luoqian closed the door.After being stabbed in the neck with a dagger, blood came out, and he smiled slightly when he heard this.

Ye Xiaoyun forced him back to the door, and said sharply: "Xue Luoqian! What did you promise me!" These words came from Ye Xiaoyun's voice, but the tone was full of rage.
