Qutang Gorge is breezy, the sky is high and the clouds are clear, and the majestic Baidi City towers into the clouds. The ox carts and passers-by coming and going create a bustling and peaceful atmosphere.

"... Strange." Liao Yungui looked around, "I always feel that something is not right."

"What's wrong? I think it's normal." Song Ziyu was riding on the horse and talking nonsense, "But hey, I think you seem to have changed a little along the way."

Once interrupted by him, Liao Yungui didn't think deeply about where the disobedience came from: "What change?"

"According to the past, when your precious little brother had an accident, I guess you would have gone into the dragon's den and tiger's lair alone. Now you can calmly discuss the rescue plan with me, and you haven't slipped away impulsively. It's really gratifying."

Liao Yungui was choked for a moment, and said: "Jing Xing is not a child anymore, if he wants to protect Miss Ah Yan for a while, it should be fine... After all... I can't protect him forever."

"Very good, very good." Song Ziyu smiled, "The truth."

The two hurriedly passed through Baidi City before dark, and were just about to pretend to go into the rapids dock to check the situation when it was dark, but they didn't expect a familiar blue to be waving in the wind.

"..." Liao Yungui was stunned, and finally understood where the strange feeling came from.

On the other side of the rapids dock, the battle flag of the Haoqi League was hung, and there was no trace of people from the Wicked Valley along the way to and from Qutang Gorge—that is to say, a fierce battle took place here in the past two days, and the Haoqi League captured captured the stronghold of the Wicked Man Valley, and drove the wicked out of Qutang Gorge.

...Then, what about Luo Jingxing and Miss Ayan?

"Yungui, what should we do?" Song Ziyu obviously didn't expect that Rapid Stream Dock would change hands in just a day or two.As a result, all the clues Luo Jingxing left for them were cut off.

The world is so big, how easy is it to find two people?

"Hey, Daoist Liao!" A clear voice came suddenly, accompanied by the sound of horseshoes, a woman in armor came riding a horse, "It's been a long time, how is Daoist?"

"General Bai." Liao Yungui cupped his hands as a salute when he saw an acquaintance, "Thanks to the general's concern, everything is fine. Ziyu, this is General Bai Ying of the Haoqi League."

Song Ziyu smiled and said, "Song Ziyu of Wanhua Valley, the general is very polite."

"Song Shengshou is famous all over the world, so you can't be so polite." Bai Ying jumped off the horse with a smile, "We met you just after we hit the rapids yesterday. Don't gossip, I must have a glass of celebration wine, please!"

"Let's not hide this from the general, Liao has something important to do here." Liao Yungui said, "Ziyu's younger sister was captured by the people in the wicked valley a few days ago, and it is said that she was brought to Qutang Gorge..."

Baiying nodded knowingly: "So that's it. We did find an injured and unconscious girl in the underground darkroom yesterday. She is probably the person you are looking for. I have asked a doctor to save her. I don't know if she is awake now... ...In short, I will take you to see her first."

"Is there only one girl?" Liao Yungui asked, "Did you see anyone else?"

"No." Baiying shook her head, "Was anyone else arrested together?"

Liao Yungui frowned slightly: "It's hard to say, forget it, let's go see Miss Ayan first."

The two of them followed Bai Ying into the rapids dock, and before they could enter the house, they heard a terrified cry: "Who are you! Go away! Don't touch me! Ahhh!"

Song Ziyu and Liao Yungui looked at each other, and hurriedly walked into the room, only to see the woman on the bed with disheveled hair, huddled into a ball with her legs hugged, shouting and crying: "Jing Xing, Jing Xing...help me...Jing Xing OK……"

"Ayan!" Song Ziyu hurriedly approached, "Ayan, it's the brother who is here, don't be afraid!"

Hearing this, Ah Yan raised his head sobbing, but first saw Liao Yungui behind Song Ziyu, and immediately fell down from the bed.She ignored Song Ziyu helping her, walked on her knees, rolled and crawled, grabbed Liao Yungui's clothes, and cried, "Senior brother Liao! Please! Please save Jing Xing! Please save him!"

The always elegant and gentle woman had no image at this moment, she threw herself at Liao Yungui's feet and cried hoarsely.Liao Yungui's heart sank, he squatted down and asked warmly: "Miss Ah Yan, don't worry, but you have to tell us what happened first?"

"Jing Xing...Jing Xing was taken away by them...They said that they asked Que Xiejian to change his junior brother's life in person..." Ah explained incoherently, "The leader, the leader is a member of the Ming Cult...Jing Xing did it I was taken away by them after saving me..."

Song Ziyu frowned on one side: "Did they catch Luo Jingxing?"

"Please save him... Jing Xing will be killed... he will be killed!" Ah Yan suddenly became emotional again, and pushed Liao Yungui hard, "Why? You killed someone but let Jing Xing replace you Accepted? Why...why do you want to hurt Jing Xing? "

"Girl, calm down!" Bai Ying stopped Ah Yan, "Master Liao, you two go out first, this girl is frightened and her mood is unstable, and you two big men are also inconvenient, just leave it to me. "

"Thank you." Liao Yungui didn't have the heart to be polite, turned around and left the room.

Behind him, Ah Yan's miserable cries came, hitting his heart like a whip.

"Yungui, she may have been irritated a lot in the past few days, and she speaks without thinking, don't... take it to heart." Song Ziyu sighed beside him, "This time things will be difficult, but they They arrested someone and forced you to show up, at least Luo Jingxing won't be in any danger for the time being."

"She's right, I killed someone, why did I let others take it for me?" Liao Yungui looked at the messy lines on his palm, "The Supreme Sword Dao has always been lonely, and I expected someone to accompany me... In the past years, I crossed the line So you see, now the retribution is coming."

Since he came out of the arena, he has been a sharp blade of the Haoqi League, with countless lives in his hands, and he has long been a thorn in the eyes of the wicked.It happened that he always had Luo Jingxing by his side - all his enemies probably knew that Luo Jingxing was Liao Yungui's junior, and a very important junior.

In the past, it was fine if he was protecting him, but now that Luo Jingxing slammed into the door by himself, how could Evilman's Valley let go of such a great opportunity?

Holding the weakness of Quexie Sword, taking his life in one fell swoop, it couldn't be more perfect.

"Don't say stupid things, retribution is a fart." Song Ziyu snorted, "It's natural to be protected, but not to be implicated? Ah Yan is a little girl who has no experience in the world, and she only has her lover's life and death in her eyes. Know what?"

Liao Yungui was silent for a while, and said, "It's me after all..."

"Okay, okay, I can't stand your look of 'I deserve to be alone all my life', jerk, go, don't blow the cold wind here." Song Ziyu walked a few steps and looked back at Liao Yun Guihui stood where he was, couldn't help but stare and said, "Hey, how long do you want to stand there? Find a place to live first and then discuss countermeasures?"

Song Ziyu shrank his neck as the cold wind from the river blew, "Oh, I miss you so much. In this kind of warm and cold night, you will come here with hot tea and snacks... so many caring disciples, more than That bastard, Yang Yi, is too strong."

Speaking of Ye Youqi and Yang Yi, Liao Yungui finally felt that the depression on his chest dissipated a little.

"They're probably going to Yangzhou soon." Liao Yungui looked at the full moon in the water outside the rapids dock, thinking of Ye Youqi's earnest expression when he accompanied him to study ink and write, he also felt a rare warmth.

Sometimes, he would feel that Ye Youqi was a bit like Luo Jingxing back then, but when he thought about it carefully, there was nothing really similar.

They all depended on him, but Luo Jingxing was always the one who was taken care of, while Ye Youqi was always trying to take care of him as a master.

Or in other words, when he was looking at Luo Jingxing, Luo Jingxing was looking at a further place; and no matter whether he was looking at Ye Youqi or not, Ye Youqi was always by his side, looking at him with complete concentration.
