[56] Bone Spirit Heart Words

Yuan Moqing chose to go to the dark hall with Zhong Lisheng to face all the difficulties and dangers in it.When they stepped into the door, the door was closed tightly, as if separating the two worlds.At this point, the two have no way out, they can only move forward, even if the road ahead is a road to purgatory of bloody fighting.

Time flies, and three years have passed.

Seeing that this round of dark training is coming to an end, the attention paid to this matter in the palace is gradually increasing, and people start to talk about it from time to time.Someone deliberately mentioned it in front of Palace Master Yuan: "Palace Master, I heard that there are quite a few good seedlings this time, and it's a pity that they are all handed over to the dark hall for cultivation. Why don't Palace Master leave a few for us?"

Palace Master Yuan laughed heartily: "Haha, the matter of no shadow has not come to fruition yet, so you are so worried about it?"

The man patted his head in embarrassment: "I'm not too short of people!"

After saying goodbye to others, Palace Master Yuan recalled slightly, recalling the youngest son of the former Palace Master who was sent into the dark hall by himself, and the boy from the Yuan family who insisted on going with him.It's just a marriage contract, how could this boy surnamed Yuan be so infatuated at such a young age?

Is it time to end?Palace Master Yuan was slightly disappointed.It is not easy to survive and protect oneself in a dark hall, and Zhong Lisheng has to take care of a sick child, the result is bound to be more or less auspicious.

Isn't that just right?His original purpose was to hope that this confidant would be powerless to resist in the dark hall, and die quietly.

After wandering around for a while, Palace Master Yuan had the idea to send someone to the dark hall to find out the news, but the reward he received shocked him: Those two people have survived until now, and both of them are one of the most likely candidates to stay until the end.

Palace Master Yuan stood quietly in the room alone, contemplating the case, and finally made a decision.

On the dark martial arts arena, Zhong Lisheng stood opposite Yuan Moqing.The teacher wearing an iron mask stood on a high platform, looking down at the two of them coldly.

"This will be your last review. The content of the review is very simple. Kill the person opposite you, regardless of the means!"

Yuan Moqing was not happy, and raised an objection lazily: "Generally speaking, players who have both strength and beauty like us will not collide in a deathmatch. There must be some secret operation in it. I request that this match be terminated." Bidou, reject shady scenes!"

The man in the iron mask was unmoved, and the voice under the mask was cold and mocking: "Out of the two of you today, only one of you can leave alive."

Yuan Moqing shook his head, sighed, his stature became shorter, and he simply sat up on the stone slab.

"No." Zhong Lisheng looked up at the man in the iron mask, "There is only one person present who can get out alive."

After half a stick of incense time passed, the closed door of the dark hall suddenly opened, something was thrown out from it, blood sprayed in the air, and a head covered with iron equipment rolled to the ground.Two pairs of footsteps stepped out from behind the door, over the head with eyes open, and walked forward.

Zhong Lisheng raised his head to look at the sky, slightly covering his eyelids with his hands, the ordinary sky light outside the house seemed extremely dazzling to him at this moment.Yuan Mo Qing stood aside quietly, waiting for Zhong Lisheng to finish adjusting, and said, "Let's go."

This is just the beginning.

Martial arts are respected in Wei Li Palace, even the position of palace lord is the same, it is not hereditary, does not ask about succession, only the strong will inherit.

The instructor's death during the assessment was due to his lack of strength, and death was not a pity. The only problem was that the content of the assessment required Zhong Lisheng and Zhong Lisheng to kill each other, and their behavior obviously did not match the content of the assessment.

"It doesn't matter, the two of them were born before I left the palace. They are both extremely excellent seedlings, and their abilities are among the best. The arrangement of this assessment was originally a mistake. If any of them had a change, that would be What a loss for us!" Palace Master Yuan said with a magnanimous smile.

There were people from other departments who cherished their talents and wanted to recruit the two of them. Palace Master Yuan asked Zhong Lisheng one by one on behalf of others, but Zhong Lisheng declined them all.

"I would like to stay in the dark hall and swear to die in the palace!" Zhong Lisheng clenched his fists and said.

"Okay, you have such a will, it's really my luck not to leave the palace, very good!" Palace Master Yuan laughed, "I will definitely entrust you with great responsibility!"

Palace Master Yuan is indeed in a good mood, as long as a person has a weakness, he is not invulnerable.And Zhong Lisheng's weakness is so obvious, as long as he masters this weakness, he can easily drive him to become a handy pawn, and Palace Master Yuan is very confident in controlling this pawn.

The dark hall is a dark place, but Zhong Lisheng doesn't mind where he is.

Whether it was training in the dark hall or formally entering the dark hall later, it would be an extremely cruel and painful experience for anyone else, but for Zhong Lisheng, when he recalled those days, he did not feel suffering at all, but rather Good meaning is mixed in it.He thought, everything is only because of the company of one person.With him, no matter how painful the time is, it is worth recalling, and all the sufferings he has endured seem to have meaning.

Wancheng is a land of smoke and clouds, a land of fish and rice, and business exchanges are very lively.It was the first time for Yuan Moqing to come to such a place, so he was naturally very excited, running around here and there, trying to escape.Zhong Lisheng followed behind, occasionally answering a few words.In the process of shopping, if Yuan Moqing sees something that catches his eyes in a certain shop, he will happily look at it a few more times and touch it a few more times, but he just doesn't buy it, which makes the people in the shop They all stared at him with bitter eyes.

"Why don't you buy it? You seem to like those things." Zhong Lisheng asked.

"I like it." Yuan Moqing replied with a smile, "But liking doesn't mean that I have to get something like this." Well, he just likes to see people want to beat him but can't do anything about it.

Zhong Lisheng frowned, and when Yuan Moqing rushed to the next store, Zhong Lisheng turned around and bought all the things Yuan Moqing had seen just now.

The face of the shopkeeper suddenly became sunny!

As soon as Zhong Lisheng came out of the shop, a sugar figure almost poked him in the face.Yuan Moqing held up the sugar monkey that had just been poured out, and smiled at Zhong Lisheng: "No, this is for you, don't wrinkle your face all day long, look like you are bitter and hateful, young people should smile more." !" He looked down and saw the things Zhong Lisheng bought in his arms, and shouted, "Wow, why did you still buy them all, Zhong Lisheng, you are such a prodigal!"

Zhong Lisheng had mixed feelings in his heart, and turned his head slightly: "It's not your money that lost."

Yo, getting angry, Yuan Moqing waved the sugar figure in his hand, and jokingly asked, "Do you want this sugar figure or not?"

Zhong Lisheng stared at the vivid monkey, lifelike, mischievous and lively, just like the original Mo Qing.

"Yes!" Zhong Lisheng lowered his head, angrily bit down hard, and the monkey's head disappeared.

Yuan Moqing held up the rest of the monkey body and wailed: "Wow, Xiao Lisheng, you are so reckless!"

It took a day to walk around most of Wancheng, the two returned to the inn, walked into the room, closed the door, and their expressions darkened.Yuan Mo Qing turned sideways, opened the window, and a pitch-black night pigeon descended from the sky, flapping its wings and landing on the window sill.Yuan Moqing untied the letter box tied to Ye Ge's leg, and unfolded it: "Midnight, Jiuqu Lane, Gu Yan."

Yuan Mo Qing looked at Zhong Lisheng and said, "The other party has an appointment, do you want to go?"

"Go, it's time to get in touch." Zhong Lisheng closed his eyes.

In the middle of the night, the two arrived as promised and hid in a dark place in the alley.On the tip of the moon, the night is thick, but not far away, there are singing and singing, and the singing of profuse poetry and melody is endless.The alley is quite quiet, occasionally a boy carrying a lantern passes by the entrance of the alley with a lantern, thinking of convenience, he wants to enter the alley to relieve his internal urgency.The boy stood at the corner of the alley and put down the lantern. Just as he untied his belt, he suddenly met a pair of eyes, the pupils of which were dim, appearing mysterious and impermanent in the darkness.

The boy was frightened suddenly, opened his mouth to exclaim, but felt that he could not make any sound, a bunch of red thread strangled his neck from behind, stuck his throat.The two ends of the red thread are held in a pair of flawless white jade hands, the wrists are hidden in the darkness inside the sleeves of the robe.The white is moist, the red is gorgeous, falling into the line of sight is like a blood line on the beautiful jade, as if the blood is about to drip at any time.

The young servant was unable to break free from the deadly red rope even to the death, he swallowed his breath without moving a few times, and was gently put on the ground, revealing the person behind him.This person is wearing a hood, and his whole body is concealed, so he can't see his real appearance.He picked up the lantern on the ground and spoke with a particularly hoarse voice: "You are careless."

Yuan Mo Qing raised his eyebrows, noncommittal: "It's because you chose the wrong place."

This person is obviously tonight's support person, Gu Yan.

Gu Yan was silent for a moment, then picked up the collar of the corpse: "Alright, his face is just useful to me." He pushed open a side door in the alley, "Follow me."

Several people entered through the side door, and soon turned into the room and entered the inner room.In the room, there are five corners of incense, red candles and tents. It doesn't look like a bedroom, but like an altar.Gu Yan placed the boy's body on the black stone platform, took a pen and dipped in water, and carefully cleaned the dead man's face.

Everything here makes people feel uncomfortable, Yuan Mo Qing stomped his feet slightly to relieve the anxiety in his heart: "Why do you want to meet and contact?"

"I need to know the target of this operation." Gu Yan said.

"Isn't this something you should have known?" Yuan Moqing chuckled.

"I need something more specific." Gu Yan painted on the human face with one stroke, and said calmly, "I understand your purpose, so I can help you better."

Yuan Moqing heard the words, spread her hands at Zhong Lisheng, and stepped aside.

Zhong Lisheng did not hesitate too much, and said: "Mei Shangshu has a roster in his hand, and the roster records all the officials involved with the forces of the world, as well as the records of their transactions. Find this roster , kill all those who know, this is the task of this time."

Gu Yan paused and put away his pen: "I understand."

"Now, tell me what you know." Zhong Lisheng said.

"There is a businessman named Mei Zhuang in Wancheng who came here for vacation with his wife and children. He lives in the gentleman's courtyard in the south of the city. His identity is Mr. Mei Shangshu. One person to protect each other - Ku Rong Dao, Yan Yao."

"The Yan Yao who was designated by Ku Rong by Dao Feng?" Yuan Mo Qing interrupted and asked.

"Exactly." Gu Yan said.

Yuan Moqing brushed up a lock of hair, fell silent for a moment, then threw it back, and said with a slight mocking smile: "He is a well-known lone knight in the world, and it is rumored that his skills can be ranked among the top ten in the world. How come I heard about him, it turned out that he went to work for the imperial court."

"Can you find out where the roster is?" Zhong Lisheng asked.

Gu Yan shook his head.

Zhong Lisheng was slightly disappointed: "Then we can only force it."

Gu Yan held a fine brush knife between his fingers, moved it to the candle to burn it, and said: "I have a suggestion, the hero is sad when the beauty passes, and the chivalry is tender and tender, you might as well try the beauty trick."

Yuan Mo Qing wondered: "I heard that Mrs. Mei has always been dignified, so I'm afraid the beauty trick won't work?"

"Everyone in the world has hidden secrets in their hearts. It's not surprising that Mrs. Mei has one or two hobbies." The corner of Gu Yan's mouth under the hood curled into a smile, and he pointed at Yuan Moqing, "And, Mei What adults like most are young and beautiful little brothers, especially like you. If you take the initiative, our chances of success in the mission will be greatly increased."

Yuan Moqing stared, his hands were itchy.

Zhong Lisheng asked blankly, "What evidence do you have?"

"It's hard to draw a person's skin and bones, knowing people's faces but not their hearts." Gu Yan moved his fingers on the blade inch by inch, "The way I cultivate is from the dragon's heart method, and the most important thing is the skill of knowing people."

Yuan Mo Qing smiled gently: "Could it be possible that you can also read minds?"

"Mind reading is not something to talk about, it's just some observation skills. If you want to know a person's thoughts, you can't look at what that person says, but what he does. You can't just look at the surface when dealing with people." Gu Yan laughed Weirdly, "For example, although you are smiling, but you want to beat me, and the other..." Gu Yan turned to Zhong Lisheng, "You want to kill me, am I right?"

Yuan Mo Qing boasted: "Very good, you are very conscious." But he still wanted to beat someone up.

Zhong Lisheng breathed, relaxed his fingers, and said lightly: "Your proposal is indeed of reference value, and we will include this in the plan. This task is arduous, and I hope that we can cooperate happily in the future."

"Okay." Gu Yan nodded, the blade moved to the dead man's face, and asked, "Are you sure you want to watch?"

"No, please do it yourself..." Yuan Moqing thanked Bumin, hurriedly raised her hand, and left with Zhong Lisheng.

After leaving Jiuqu Lane, Yuan Moqing suddenly laughed.

"What?" Zhong Lisheng asked.

"It's nothing." Yuan Mo Qing shrugged, "I just feel that the connection between the Jianghu and the court is much deeper than I imagined, and it's not like an ordinary Jianghu force without leaving the palace. As dark as we are, The people in the hall are just pawns in a multi-party game and are responsible for fighting in front of the formation, so it's really boring if they can't help themselves."

Zhong Lisheng heard the words, held Yuan Mo Qing's hand, and said firmly: "It won't always be like this."

Yuan Moqing looked at him, showing a relieved smile: "Well, that's right."

Then he suddenly hugged Zhong Lisheng's head, and rubbed it vigorously, "Xiao Lisheng, when you grow up, you can comfort others! You are really Dad's caring little padded jacket!"

"..." Zhong Lisheng blushed, wanted to struggle but didn't dare to use force, finally he could only growl in grief and indignation, "Yuan Moqing, let me go!!!"
