The cold winter covered the footsteps of the Haoqi League border guards who patrolled the night, but it couldn't cover the eyes of the hungry wolf lurking behind the frost and snow.

The Evilman Valley, which had been silent for several days, suddenly launched an attack on Haoqi's multiple strongholds at the same time. Haoqi was ill-prepared and suffered heavy casualties. Qutang Gorge and other three important strongholds were lost, and morale plummeted for a while.

Shen Yun spread out the strategic map in the meeting hall, and used a brush to draw the Baling area south of the Yangtze River to Nanping Mountain into a circle. He stared at the small Nanping Mountain, recalling the burden of leaving in a hurry. Injustice and decades of tragic time, he said coldly: "Before winter comes again, I want my iron cavalry from the Valley of the Wicked to break through the mountain road of Nanping Mountain and occupy Wuwang City!"

"The owner of the valley is mighty!"

"The owner of the valley is mighty!"

……

Compared with the grain master's prestige, Ye Youqi, the young valley master, seemed to lack a little weight.

Shen Yun directly entrusted him with the task of attacking Baling County, but did not arrange a lieutenant general for him: "The generals I personally arrange will listen to you, and the people I am used to, it would be a waste to give it to you. You can do it yourself." Find a way to solve it, money, food and armaments are up to you.”

Ye Youqi: "...Yes."

"I arranged for you to marry Mingjiao so that you can gain a firm foothold in this valley first." Shen Yun moved her fingers without looking at him, "Behind that little girl Lu Yu is the most famous woman in the whole world." A killer organization whose face has changed."

"If you marry her, you will have the capital to make people fearful and obedient."

"Just relying on your hot blood for a while, what's the use of saving three or five people? You have been in the Valley of the Wicked for a few months? Tell me, have you found even one subordinate who is willing to die for you?"

"Do you think that in your current situation, if thousands of villains in the Valley of the Wicked join forces to rebel against you and surround and kill you, what can you do? Is it the justice and axiom in your heart that can save you, or is it the advantage of your powerful alliance?" Master can save you?"

"..." Shen Yun's words were thorny and very unpleasant, but Ye Youqi opened his mouth a few times, but he couldn't refute a single word.

He couldn't deny that it was all true.

He has never been able to regard himself as a part of this place, and has rejected it from the inside out. One day, the big revenge will be avenged, and what he wants most is to leave here as soon as possible and return to Liao Yungui's side.

"No matter what the reason is that you don't want to marry Lu Yu, I'm too lazy to care about it. I just hope you don't embarrass me." Shen Yun stood up, "Once the newly established strongholds are recovered, I will prepare to leave Baling County. In the meantime, do it yourself."

Ye Youqi didn't know how he got back into the room, Shen Yun's words made him feel overwhelmed, as if he had been poured with lead.

A Yao originally curled up on the seat with her tail in her arms and took a nap, but when she saw Ye Youqi came back, she climbed onto Ye Youqi's lap very uninvited.It has been several months old now, and has gained a lot of weight. It lay on such a big belly, and it immediately brought Ye Youqi back to his senses.

"Master Shaogu is back, let's drink some ginger tea to dispel the cold!" The maid Bai Xi came in with a plate, and said with a smile, "It's mixed with sugar, so it's not spicy."

Baixi is the girl Ye Youqi and the others rescued a few days ago. The girl originally lived in a small village at the foot of the Kunlun Mountains. Her family was gone. She packed her bags and wanted to go to the Central Plains through the Longmen Desert to make a living. In the end, he was caught by a horse thief in the desert and became a gift for the chief executive, Jiang Lin.

Ye Youqi rescued her, but she had nowhere to go, so she stayed here logically, working as a maid here.She is diligent and dedicated to serving people, but she is not very good at observing words and expressions, so she treats Ye Youqi and Ye Chunshen as a couple when she comes up, and praises them for being a good match, which makes them very embarrassed.

"Thank you." Ye Youqi took the teacup and was about to drink it, when suddenly his expression turned cold, and he pushed Baixi away, and threw the cup in his hand at the same time, collided with something in mid-air, broke into several pieces and fell to the ground.

The thing that was rushing in was blocked, and it inserted obliquely into the beam of the house, it turned out to be a bright flying knife.

Bai Xi fell to the ground, his legs limp in fright: "Sir... Master Shaogu..."

Ye Youqi stared at the throwing knife with a complicated expression. It wasn't the first time something like this happened, and presumably it wouldn't be the last.

As long as he is here, as long as he is a powerless and helpless Shaogu master, then he and the people around him will always be shrouded in the shadow of accidents at any time—until he dies, or those who oppose him die.

He rejected Master's proposal to call him back to the Central Plains, is it for such a result?

Could it be that he was buried in this sinful place for failure and no one cared?

Senior brother Ye Youqi was full of entanglements, and the situation with junior brother Yang Yi was really not good.

When Yang Yi woke up again from what could be called a chaotic frenzy, Yang Yi found himself tied to the stone pillar in front of the door by Wuhuada.

"……?"What is this scenario?

"Are you alright? Stop making a fuss?" Ye Chunshen descended from the sky with his sword in his hand, looked closely at it for a while, then nodded, "It seems to be all right."

"...What?" Yang Yi only remembered that he had a splitting headache without warning the night before. It was clear that he hadn't seen blood, and he didn't mention any exciting topics. He was just chatting casually with Ye Chunshen, and suddenly fell into a In a state of insane madness.

"You never mentioned to me that you would suddenly go crazy. You scared me." Ye Chunshen didn't seem to be injured, and his spirit was even good. It’s not very easy, I set a trap with a rope, and you just stepped into it without even looking at it.”

Yang Yi: "..."

"But I didn't dare to leave, so I squatted on this stone pillar and watched for midnight." Ye Chunshen split the rope with a sword, and yawned, "I'm going back to sleep, you can arrange it yourself."

After walking a few steps, she heard Yang Yi's somewhat obscure voice behind her: "You... aren't you afraid?"

"What are you afraid of?" Ye Chunshen looked bewildered, and he almost missed saying "such stupidity is not worth being afraid of".

Yang Yi, whose combat effectiveness was despised and turned into a scumbag, turned his self-resentment into grief and indignation. He was unnatural and could not explain it, so he could only watch Ye Chunshen go away.

The woman in bright yellow brocade clothes was tall and slender, with a chic ponytail tied behind her back, and a pair of light and heavy swords pinned to her waist, which was somewhat similar to the shadow he longed for but couldn't dream of.

Beautiful and distant, like light from another world.

At that moment, he thought of Pei Qingpiao's words in the wind - "Yes, or not, what's the difference?... Anyway, it won't be mine."

Because of the heavy losses in the stronghold battle, the Haoqi League had to issue a summoning order to let the Haoqi people in the rivers and lakes come back to help.Therefore, Liao Yun returned to Chunyang and hadn't calmed down for a month before leaving again.

Luo Jingxing was extremely disappointed: "Brother, shall I go down the mountain with you? With your guidance these days, I feel that I have made a lot of progress and have improved a lot."

"Wait until you are promoted enough to pass fifty strokes under your Master Mei, and then tell me about going down the mountain." Chen Qi walked over slowly and said with a smile, "Have you survived thirty strokes today?"

Luo Jingxing: "..."

Glancing at the back of his junior brother who left dejectedly, Liao Yungui shook his head and laughed: "Why is Master suddenly strict?"

"The old grievances between Shen Yun and Qi Yun, as a teacher, I don't want more people from Chunyang Palace to be involved." Chen Qi said solemnly, "Yun Gui, you are in the middle of the game and you can't get out, but you must remember to do it for you." What the teacher told you earlier, don’t lose your heart.”

"The disciple understands."

"Forget it, let's go." Chen Qi flicked the whisk in his hand, and his clothes were blown up by the sudden snow wind, "There are three thousand roads, and the same goal by different routes. You just need to remember that as a teacher, there is always you here." A way out."

Until he walked down the thousand-step stone ladder and looked back, the old man in the plain white Taoist robe was still standing there, together with the towering mountain gate, the vigorous old pines, and the floating clouds and white cranes passing by freely, they became the Pure Yang Palace, which is reassuring. The presence.

Liao Yungui's eyes felt hot.

His master picked him up from the heavy snow and returned to the mountain. He taught him carefully for many years, preached and taught him, and treated him like a brother like a father, a teacher and a friend.

More than 20 years have passed in a hurry, and the children who played around in the past have transformed into adults. Generations of Chunyang disciples have honed and grown here, and from here they rushed to the future.Young people step into the rivers and lakes with enthusiasm, and the elders behind them will always watch them tenderly and silently bless them.

Life goes on and on, never ending.

Just after the Spring Festival, the villages at the foot of the Kunlun Mountains and the small towns in the Longmen Desert were plastered with a Hero Order.

It was the recruitment notice of the guards from the new owner of the Shaogu Valley. It stated that regardless of background or past, as long as he wanted to, he would have the opportunity to enter the Valley of the Wicked and become a member of the private army led by the owner of the Shaogu. , the treatment is favorable.

As soon as this happened, it immediately caused quite a shock.

For the surrounding area, the Valley of the Wicked has always been somewhat mysterious, because not everyone is qualified to enter the valley, so there are also many people who are forced to have nowhere to go. The day of being hunted down.

And now, there is a chance for them to truly get rid of the past and gain a new life!

For a while, all major news organizations in the streets and alleys and rivers and lakes were discussing this matter. Not only people from Kunlun and Longmen, but also many people from the Central Plains and the south were eager to come to the Valley of the Wicked to find out.

Ye Youqi stood on a high place where the strong wind gathered, his black ponytail was blown away by the wind and closed again, like ink stretched on the surface of the water.

"Brother, can this method work?" Yang Yi squatted on the side, chewing a piece of wormwood in his mouth, "I always feel that it will attract a lot of incompetent idiots for such things as the Guangfa Hero Order."

Ever since he almost lost control in front of Ye Youqi last time, he hadn't dared to come over for a while.But when he didn't see it, he would think about it, especially Ye Chunshen was talking to him all day long about the troubles Youqi encountered, that Youqi was ambushed again yesterday, and whoever wanted to bully Youqi... the talk made him fidget, and finally rushed over.

Just in time for Ye Youqi to conceive of recruiting troops, so Yang Yi took over the errands logically and became the first general of the "Master of Shaogu" guards.

Ye Chunshen, who had been doing nothing since coming to the Valley of the Wicked, was also very interested when he heard about it: "Add me? I haven't fought a war yet, so excited!"

Yang Yi: "..."

Ye Youqi: "..."

Although it didn't look very reliable, Ye Youqi was still very moved when he came up with two more helpers.

"Big waves wash the sand, and there will always be gold." Ye Youqi smiled, "Why don't you look forward to it once."

Now that the path has been chosen, he can only walk alone to the end, no matter whether he is bullied or walks with his head held high.

The Valley of the Wicked is difficult to clear, so he lets in more new, uncontrollable unknown factors, disrupting the existing order and balance.Then, he was able to win in the chaos, tearing open a crack belonging to the new era in the blood-stained darkness.

That will be their time.
