Talking to each other, Ao Qi slowly changed from one sentence to the occasional hum.
The sun shines in, and every corner of the room is full of dust. The withered and yellow vines hang down outside the window, and the sun shines through the small holes in the dead leaves that have turned brown, and through the gaps between the leaves. Being driven away, even though it is not leaving forever, this moment is indeed a time to enjoy the sunshine.
"Ao Qi," hearing Qi Ao calling his name in a serious manner, Ao Qi slightly opened his eyes, waiting for Qi Ao's next words, "Let's change our itinerary, don't go north, let's go to Xuanyang Jedi Pavilion the Lord of the Pavilion."
Since the last time I heard about the Xuanyang Jedi Pavilion, Qi Ao had asked the emissary to inquire, but the other party was obviously more skilled than them in hiding, so he hadn't received any particularly useful information for a long time. The matter made Qiao put the matter of finding the Xuanyang Jedi Pavilion on the agenda again. If you want to improve your ability in a short period of time, the best way is to cooperate with more powerful people, even if you are not careful, you will be swallowed by the other party The danger, and the opportunity to take a big step forward cannot be given up because of this danger.
What's more, he believed that he and Aoqi would not be unable to deal with a Xuanyang Jedi Pavilion master.
This is the result of Qi Ao's deliberation over the past few days.
Ao Qi laughed, expressing his agreement, then put his arms around Qi Ao, leaned against his shoulder, and not long after, he heard the sound of his even and long breathing.
Qi Ao continued to read the novel in his hand, without any sign of discomfort.
That's why Ao Qi won't let go of Qi Ao.
☆, adventure
Xuanyang Jedi Pavilion, the only killer organization in the world that dares to exist aboveboard, also takes care of secret activities such as intelligence trafficking, killer hiring, sneak attack and assassination.
Although it has killed many people, it publicly declares that it has no hostility and is a neutral existence in the arena.In other words, as long as you pay it according to its standards, it can do any shady things for you, and it will also collect money from the underworld for the work of the underworld.
What if there is no money?In addition to providing him with enough gold, silver and jewelry, which is the simplest method, there is another way to meet the needs of the pavilion owner, do what he likes, and give him the person or thing he likes.
This method is a saying from inside the Xuanyang Jedi Pavilion. There are many people who have tried it, but only a handful of them succeeded in the end, and most of them disappeared in the Jianghu after they succeeded.
What is even more mysterious is that even those who exchanged missions by pleasing the pavilion master, none of them had ever met the pavilion master, and all the pavilion masters conveyed his intentions through envoys.
As time goes by, there are more and more rumors about the owner of Xuanyang Jedi Pavilion.
It is said that the owner of Xuanyang Jedi Pavilion is extremely ugly, with mouse eyes, pig nose and hare lips, blue and purple skin, big head and thin body, described as wretched.However, what kind of person is he? Except for a few high-level people in the pavilion, no one has seen the appearance of the pavilion master, so they can only roughly know that he is a man.
The reason why an assassination organization like Xuanyang Jedi Pavilion has been able to stand for a long time in this arena is because it just ingeniously grasped a delicate balance, so that everyone in the arena hated him to the bone, but no one raised the issue. Annihilate him, after all, everyone may need him one day, and no one wants to be an enemy of Quan Wulin.
There have been various intelligence organizations of different sizes in the rivers and lakes, but they were all eliminated or merged by Xuanyang Jedi Pavilion in the end. The only one that went wrong was Liusha Xingyue Tower based on family blood.
The reason why Liusha Xingyue Tower survived and became a secret organization comparable to Xuanyang Jedi Pavilion is that apart from the family as the most difficult connection, its organization is more formal and orderly.
Women account for nearly half of Liusha Xingyue Tower, and most of them are in the upper management. The biggest difference between it and Xuanyang Jedi Pavilion is that it focuses on intelligence while Xuanyang Jedi Pavilion focuses on assassination, but Liusha Xingyue Tower "Drunk Yanhong" who specializes in sex as a blade is also a legend in the world.
The above is Qi Ao's summary of the news about Xuanyang Jedi Pavilion based on the intermittent information fragments in the past few days.
They have been on the road for nearly a month and a half, and besides eating and sleeping, they pass the time by listening to all kinds of gossip.
A few days before the departure, the man in black killed him overnight, and the rumors in the next few days turned into the three of them for some unknown reason. It was about Dugu Aoqi, who was still suspected of murder, and was searching for the truth to wash his hands. One is Ning Ziyun, a young disciple of the Shuijing Sword Sect who has disappeared for a long time in the legend, and the other is Wen Ruo, who has no strength to restrain a chicken. scholar.What's more, the frail scholar who has no strength to restrain a chicken has a superficial appearance with Lonely and Aoqi.
Just when the story of the three men walking together intensified and was about to enter the ranks of the Eighteenth Ban and become a manuscript of a novel, the direction of the wind suddenly changed. I don’t know who connected these many things. A man with an arrogant appearance broke The Octagonal Formation of the Heavenly Moat is no longer news, and some people said that they saw Aoqi going in that direction before the Jishangguan was killed, and the Wulin people did not find the Five Elements Lotus in the Jishangguan after the Jishangguan was destroyed. Finally, there is a person who looks the same as Aoqi who has the opportunity to become a suspect, but in the end he is sick and weak, so naturally he is ruled out as a suspect.
Combining the above clues, everyone in Wulin came to the following conclusion:
Dugu Aoqi met and kidnapped Ning Ziyun by chance on his journey to find the real culprit, but he also kidnapped Ning Ziyun.Later, he met another person who looked the same as him, and this person aroused great interest and affection for Dugu Aoqi, but unfortunately, this person had been in poor health, so Dugu Aoqi wanted to make him recover in order to please the beauty. Jishang Guan broke the heavenly moat and the octagonal formation and forcibly snatched the five-element treasure lotus.Unexpectedly, this news would spread out soon, and the scholar's health still didn't improve after using the Five Elements Lotus, Dugu Aoqi became angry for a while and counted new and old grudges together, and wiped out the roots of Jishangguan.
"Well, to a certain extent, it's the truth." Qiao finished reading the rumors on the large sheets of paper he asked the emissaries to collect with a smile, turned around and looked at Ao with a mocking expression on his face. Qi asked deliberately, "Ao Qi, what do you think?"
Ao Qi replied without raising his head: "It's a mess." Then he continued to listen to Yi Lerong's report on the itinerary in Wucheng, who was driving.
Xuanyang Jedi Pavilion is not difficult to find, there are strongholds in various cities, teahouses, inns, theaters and even brothels, so that people who want to find them can contact them more quickly and easily.However, Ao Qi and the others don't intend to contact those small strongholds in Xuanyang Jedi Pavilion who can't talk or do anything. They want to directly find the main pavilion of Xuanyang Jedi Pavilion, get acquainted with the pavilion owner, and negotiate terms with him.
It took Aoqi and the others a lot of effort to find the main pavilion of the Xuanyang Jedi Pavilion, and they managed to get a clue. Faced with this unreliable clue, Aoqi and the others discussed it all night, and finally decided to stick to it. On the scalp, after all, it is still possible to try, if you don't try, there is really no hope.
The one-and-a-half months on the road was quite peaceful, except for the first period of time when some people came to challenge him desperately, trying to capture Ao Qi and snatch the Shuanglong Chiyu Sword, and some people even wanted to poke him, a "sick and weak" scholar. A few blood holes were used to distract Aoqi's mind, and in the end, without exception, they became the dead souls feeding the Shuanglong Chiyujian.
If you go further back, no one will bother you. If you say that you are scared by Aoqi, it can only be part of it. This time, even the rivers and lakes have become a lot more peaceful. It's not a common thing in Jianghu, so this rare peace made Qi'ao taste the mystery.
He didn't discuss this matter with Ao Qi in detail. First, he wasn't sure if he was thinking too much. Second, if there was indeed a problem, with their current strength, it was really impossible to compete with the hands that secretly controlled the entire Jianghu. It is better to have one thing more than one thing less, and the best strategy is to get the Xuanyang Jedi Pavilion done first.
When he confirmed this idea again, he and Ao Qi were standing on the edge of a steep cliff.
The lingering sea breeze is coming, mixed with the unique fishy and salty smell of sea water, the hair and clothes of the two are blown by the wind, the sun shines on the sea surface, sparkling light surges from the sea surface, and in the distance is A bright mirror.The ground under his feet was trembling, as the sea rolled up, the waves slammed against the rocks at the bottom of the cliff, and then the white waves smashed against the rocks at the bottom of the cliff, making a heart-pounding roaring sound.
Qi Ao took two steps forward, with half of his feet hanging in the air, and behind him was Ao Qi holding his arms tightly.
Qi Ao lowered his head to measure the distance with his eyes, and smiled at Ao Qi: "If you are not careful tomorrow, you will be smashed to pieces, not even a whole body."
Hearing Qi Ao's joke, Ao Qi pulled Qi Ao back abruptly, frowning and looking at Qi Ao with a serious expression, just looking at his gloomy face like the sky before the rainstorm, you can tell how upset he is now Well, Qiao reached out and squeezed his cheek and muttered "relax, relax" but it didn't save his stiff expression.
"Tomorrow, you and Ning Ziyun will stay in the hostel together. When I go down to investigate and make sure that this place is indeed the main pavilion of the Xuanyang Jedi Pavilion as reported by the informant, it will not be too late to pick you up." Ao Qi held Qi Ao behind his back. clothes, looked at Qi Ao and looked at the steep cliffs, and gave the order without any explanation.
Qi Ao raised his eyebrows, didn't say much, but began to think silently in his heart.
It was because he was too curious about the Xuanyang Jedi Pavilion, where the dragon never saw the end, and this operation was very dangerous. No matter how much he thought about letting Aoqi take the risk alone, he felt confused. When individuals are not in the same place, how can one person take risks and the other enjoy the benefits?
The next morning Ao Qi woke up before the sun rose, and after washing up, he went back to take a look at Qi Ao who was still sleeping.
It was still daylight, the sky was gray and gray, and Ao Qi didn't light the candle, so when he bent down, Qi Ao's face was completely covered in his shadow, so that the nose and mouth were a little blurry, except for the ink painting The eyebrows are stretched out and the long eyelashes are very clear, and the corners of the mouth are tightly pursed, showing a slight upward arc, but it's a pity that the mouth is not bloody at all, and it looks pale and miserable.
Qi Ao was still lying on his side, with the quilt slightly rising and falling as he breathed, Ao Qi just stood there watching for a while, and finally helped Qi Ao tuck the quilt, turned and walked out of the room, followed by Yi Wucheng and Zi Ye A dozen emissaries headed by them.
Chen Yu stayed behind to protect and look after Qi Ao.
Ao Qi got on his horse after leaving the gate of the hostel, and the secret envoy continued to follow behind.
This small village is about fifty miles away from the sea, and they still need to make some preparations when they get there. After all, it is the first time they have done this kind of thing, so they can only try to be comprehensive in terms of safety equipment. No one can escape from the cliff where Tao hits the shore.
In less than an hour, Ao Qi arrived at the place where he and Qi Ao stood yesterday.
On the cliff is a piece of gravel, and occasionally a few clumps of yellow weeds grow out of the cracks in the stone. Fortunately, there are also a few huge stones and a twisted tree, which is already very important for what they are about to do. Very good condition too.
The rope they prepared was specially made. It was twisted together with several strands of hemp rope, and some rags were brought along. This was to cushion the sharp rock corners protruding from the stone to avoid excessive wear and tear on the rope during the pulling process.
After Ao Qi stopped the horse, he turned over and got off the horse, walked to the edge of the cliff and stood facing the sea with his hands behind his back.
There was no one behind Aoqi at first, but in the blink of an eye, many figures appeared neatly behind him, all wearing black clothes and wearing the same mask, silently without making a sound, even their postures were exactly the same , stood with his head bowed, waiting for Aoqi's order.
The sound of waves sweeping from far to near filled the surroundings regularly, Ao Qi turned around and scanned these emissaries for a week, his eyes suddenly stopped at a certain place.The emissaries hadn't figured out why Aoqi didn't give orders all this time, they heard Aoqi's cold voice inserted into the sound of the waves near and far: "Okay, very good."
As if it was just a moment of breathing, Ao Qi's voice was even lingering in front of the team, and when they reacted again, Ao Qi had disappeared from the front of the line, suddenly appeared among their secret agents, and used a secret agent who was close to the old tree. An ambiguous posture firmly suppressed on the tree trunk - one hand raised the opponent's hands above the head and clasped them, the other arm wrapped around the opponent's waist, imprisoning the opponent in front of him, inserting one leg between the opponent's legs— —This way, the opponent has no room to move.
In the surprised eyes of the emissaries, Ao Qi stared at the other party as if he wanted to cut him into pieces, stared at Ao Qi and smiled abruptly: "Tell me, where did you get him?" ?”
A vague voice came from under the mask: "Probably still asleep in the hostel." The tone was very relaxed.
However, even if the voice was blurred, the emissaries quickly recognized the other party, and then gasped in unison - shouldn't this be the young man who is still sleeping in the hostel!
Ao Qi frowned and let go of Qi Ao's clasped hands, reached out to take off Qi Ao's mask, and the facial features carved out of the same mold as Qi Ao's were reflected in his eyes.
Qi Ao didn't realize at all that he had been deceived by his introspection, and was even a little proud of himself.As soon as the sun emerged from the bottom of the sea, the sun can't wait to shine on the sky and the earth. The golden sea surface reflected in Qi'ao's eyes, with a hint of cunning and firmness in Qi'ao's eyes, as if catkins were blowing across the sky. The spring grass stretches across the moon, and there are a few light yellow flowers dotted in the tender green everywhere.
Ao Qi and Qi Ao looked at each other for a long while, but they still had no choice but to look at Qi Ao's smile as usual. At that time, they were angry and funny, and wanted to kick Qi Ao to death to save so much effort.
Between the two of them, it was always Qi Ao who said what he said, but this time things were unusual, usually he just listened to Qi Ao, how could such a thing be a joke.
Besides, Qi’ao’s body hasn’t recovered at all. If it was the former Qi’ao, he would definitely bring Qi’ao with him, and he would be able to get twice the result with half the effort. In the process, I have to pay more attention to take care of him.
What Qi Ao was thinking about in Ao Qi's heart didn't understand something, he stretched out his hand, and half-tucked Ao Qi's collar, the distance between the two people who were originally entangled in breathing increased a little.
Qi Ao specially put on a soft and warm smile, the smile was warmer than the first sunlight that broke through the snow on the top of the mountain in early spring, and the incomparable persistence in his eyes deepened a bit: "I can't let go of this kind of thing." You went alone, and you asked me to wait for you at the hostel, don’t even think about it, even if it’s a burden, it’s your responsibility.” After the last time, Qi Ao will never let Ao Qi, whom she has brought along for so long, wade alone again Otherwise, it is not me who has to run around and work hard when I get into an inexplicable situation in the end.
The emissaries all turned their eyes to the sun who had just jumped out of the sea, expressing that the sun was not so dazzling.
☆, cliff
Ao Qi tied the rope to the tree and tied a knot, pulled hard, threw one end of the rope to Qi Ao, and then tied another rope himself.
The thickest and longest ropes were used as the main ropes, and the secret envoy threw one end off the cliff, and the other end was already tied to a large rock not far from the cliff that looked very solid.
The rope hangs down the cliff, swaying slightly with the wind in mid-air, waiting for Aoqi and the secret envoy to fasten the protective rope, check the protective measures of the whole body, and the adventure will begin.
Qi'ao tied several knots in the middle of the rope, and formed a net with other ropes, then wrapped it around his waist, and then used the rope to go around his crotch and pull it up to his waist, and then wound several times around the outside of the protective net.
Looking down, I felt that this method was much more comfortable and safer than just using the rope around the waist, so I went to Ao Qi and patted him on the shoulder, then took the rope in his hand without saying a word, and looked at the other The emissary who was tying the protective rope said loudly: "You are like me, first tie the rope into a net and tie it around your waist, and then wrap the rope around the outside a few more times to fix it. This is better than using the rope directly." He said, Qi Ao is seriously demonstrating on Ao Qi.
When squatting down to help Ao Qi get the rope, Qi Ao suddenly stopped moving, Ao Qi lowered his head strangely and saw Qi Ao raised his eyes to show him a complacent expression, then raised his index finger to gesture to him, and then there was a thunderbolt He poked Aoqi's crotch in the ear, and laughed teasingly: "Look, I'm not so burdened."
Ao Qi sighed helplessly, pulled Qi Ao up, and then opened his arms to signal him to continue, Qi Ao didn't do much at the critical moment, just now it was purely a warning of dissatisfaction with Ao Qi's belittling him.
A group of people tied up the protection rope, and helped each other to check it to make sure everything was safe. Then they put on thick gloves with coarse cloth and interlayer cotton sewn on the palm, and passed the main rope through the loose buckle left on the protection rope, so that they could go up and down flexibly, or Reduce the strength of the arms to pull the main rope.
After fully putting on this set of rough-looking but very safe equipment, half an hour had passed, the sun leaped from the bottom of the sea, and the sea surface turned into a dazzling golden color, even with the autumn wind blowing head-on.
After Ao Qi asked Zi Ye to protect Qi Ao, he nodded to the left and right, and was the first to fall backwards down the cliff. The figure disappeared so quickly that everyone held their breath until the main rope was obviously tightened. Trembling, everyone knew that it was Aoqi who pulled the rope and stopped.
Then everyone is ready to act together.
"Young Master, you little..." Zi Ye and Wu Cheng stood beside Qi Ao on the left and right, Zi Ye tightened the loose buckle a little so that the speed of the descent would not be too fast, while persuading him seriously.
In the end, before he could finish speaking, the figure around him jumped back faster than them, and what remained in Ziye's field of vision was only the white corner of his sleeve for a moment, and a faint cloud in the sky was blown away by the wind. up.
Qi Ao is no better than Ao Qi now, he doesn't have any force on his body now, his body is weak, but this activity is extremely testing of arm strength, this time everyone not only held their breath, but felt their hearts jumping out of their throats in fright, I couldn't even breathe anymore, I broke out in several layers of cold sweat, and jumped down one after another in a hurry.
Only when he got below did he see Ao Qi holding Qi Ao's arm with one hand, his face covered with dark clouds.
Qi Ao seemed to be fine, holding his main rope tightly with both hands, stepping on the cliff, comforting Ao Qi with ease.
Seeing that the tense atmosphere gradually condensed, Qi Ao let Ao Qi hold his hand, and smiled to the other emissaries who followed: "Everyone, don't be nervous, this knot can adjust the speed, just now Zi Ye helped me slow down , as long as the descending distance is mastered, nothing will happen." After speaking, he shook Aoqi's hand with his backhand and let go, this time he was the first one to descend.
Ao Qi immediately followed with a gloomy face.
After suffering from the hidden guards, a group of people were frightened twice before they were able to catch their breath, and they jumped down as soon as they stood still.
After descending like this for about ten times, almost reaching the upper part of the middle of the cliff, Qi Ao suddenly stopped moving.He reached out and touched the cliff in front of him, spread his hands to see the gravel and coarse sand in his hand, rubbed the sand with his fingertips, and put it in his nose to smell the moist smell of water vapor.
"Aoqi," Aoqi, who was also groping after hearing Qi'ao's call, turned his head, and saw Qi'ao's expression clearly moved two steps towards him, "The news is that on the cliff. part."
Ao Qi nodded and answered "yes", and saw a relieved but confident smile on Qi Ao's face, and the early morning sunlight dyed his brows.
Even Ao Qi couldn't help but be infected by Qi Ao's smile. The gloomy mood caused by various things just now dissipated a lot, so when he spoke again, he even softened a little: "What's the matter?" Such a tone can be heard aside The closest Ziye slipped.
"This cliff is thinner than the ones next to it." Qi Ao roughly drew a range around him with his hands, because his position was relatively low, so he had to raise his head slightly when talking to Ao Qi, the sun was shining brightly on Qi Ao's eyes were as bright as the surface of the sea, and his smile seemed to be coated with sunshine. He took off the mask that was too calm and gentle in the past and became full of vitality. "It's time for your sword to play a role."
It is said that the Ssangyong Red Feather Sword can cut iron like mud, break gold and crack rocks. No one knows whether it has this effect or is it an exaggeration. Even Qi Ao, who has used it, can only say that it is a very handy weapon, but in the end it is Because martial arts are different, it cannot be used to its extreme.
Ao Qi and Qi Ao changed positions, keeping Qi Ao at a distance behind him, then signaled the people around him to move away a bit, visually inspected the range Qi Ao drew, and slowly pulled out the Shuanglong Chiyu Sword from behind.
Dan Tian swung his sword in a state of indignation, and the red-glowing sword drew two brilliant golden lights that flew out in a cross shape, and slammed on the hard stone wall. The stone wall trembled slightly, except for a little sand falling Hearing the wind and not moving, the waves on the cliff beat and roared deafeningly, as if mocking the insignificance of human power.
Seeing this, no one dared to make a sound. Seeing Aoqi gritted his teeth, his expression became more and more gloomy, as if dark clouds gathered around him, and the sword in his hand screamed like a dragon soaring through the nine heavens. , It also seems that the wind is howling and the yellow sand of the desert is paved.
Qi Ao beside him still had a smile on his face, but the expression in his eyes was also a bit serious.
Qi Ao stretched out his hand and pressed Ao Qi's somewhat stiff arm, motioning him to adjust, carefully looking at the place where Ao Qi had slashed.
Approaching the cliff that Ao Qi chopped, Qi Ao pressed down bit by bit with his hands until he stopped when he pressed a spot.
Leaning close to the cliff, Qi Ao listened attentively and tapped the cliff with his hands. From serious thinking to stretching his brows and eyes, Qi Ao finally pointed to a place and said to Ao Qi: "It's here." After finishing speaking Pulling the rope with one hand, he kicked off with a few steps like flying lightly, leaving the next stage to Ao Qi.
The secret messengers stared at Aoqi without blinking, quietly waiting for Aoqi's mountain-splitting performance again.
Ao Qi breathed a sigh of relief, clenched the Shuanglong Chiyu sword in his hand, and every minute passed, everyone stood motionless in place like stone men, except for the sword in Ao Qi's hand, which gradually became as dazzling as fire.
A dragon's whistle shook the sky, and the trees in the mountains and forests in a radius of ten miles trembled.
Ao Qi adjusted his angle, then stepped on the mountain wall with both feet, bounced off the mountain wall, took advantage of the moment of flying away, raised his sword and stabbed fiercely towards the cliff wall.
Aoqi's posture is not easy to exert force, and the force of falling up and down is unbalanced. He only relies on his feet to fix himself on the cliff. In order to deal with it with all his might and to aim more accurately, Ao Qi let go of the rope and held the sword in both hands when he flew to the highest point.
So this time, the sword body was submerged in nearly half of the mountain.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
Seeing the sword being inserted into the stone, Ao Qi didn't show excessive joy or surprise, he still stood there expressionless, let go of the slightly hot hilt and stretched his ten fingers.
The huge reaction force made the tiger's mouth of Aoqi's hands feel painful and numb, coupled with the use of internal force to stimulate the sword energy of the Shuanglong Chiyujian, the sword that should have been tightly attached to the mountain trembled slightly, and the sword The red color on his body became more and more conspicuous.
Everyone held their breath and looked at the Shuanglong Chiyujian quietly, hoping that Ao Qi would get the desired result this time, but they waited for a long time, and the Shuanglong Chiyujian was just inserted there without any change.
Just when everyone was a little disappointed, Ao Qi suddenly heard Qi Ao, who was standing opposite, shouted: "Ao Qi." Along with the sound, Qi Ao, who was dressed in feathers like a flying crane, came over. He pulled the rope with one hand, and lifted his feet into the air, drawing a white shadow in midair.When passing by Ao Qi, Qi Ao suddenly stretched out his other hand to grab Ao Qi's upper arm, and with the help of inertia, he pulled Ao Qi back several steps to his left.
Because the backward force was too sudden, it was difficult to keep standing on the steep cliff. Aoqi lost his balance for a moment, and he was almost staggered and dragged a few steps backwards. Qi'ao's movements moved to the side, and he was almost slipped by Qi'ao's feet, but he was able to stand still with the support of a few secret messengers hanging over there.
Ao Qi was so frightened by Qi Ao's actions that his heart stopped for a moment. Just as he stood firm, he grabbed Qi Ao's wrist, wanting to educate and criticize Qi Ao's dangerous behavior of flying around on the cliff.Before he could open his mouth in time, a huge roar came from his ears. At the same time, the mountain under his feet began to vibrate differently than before.
Qi Ao looked at the situation in front of him with some satisfaction, while shaking the wrist that was hurt by Ao Qi just now.
The ground trembled more and more violently, and the hidden guard who originally relied on the strength of his arms to pull the rope to stand firmly on the mountain wall was a little staggering under such circumstances.And Qi Ao, who has been swinging around while pulling the rope, and spent a lot of effort to pull Aoqi away, has already expended a lot of strength, but just now he just pulled the rope with one hand, even he himself did not expect At this time, both feet will suddenly slip, and accidentally step on the air, hanging in mid-air, it is too late to find the next point of strength.
In the blink of an eye, Qi Ao's situation became very dangerous.
Before Qi Ao even had time to shout out, he already felt his body start to slide down.
Faster than the sound is his hand.Qi'ao didn't choose to look for a wall to step on at the first time, but pulled the main rope with all his strength. Even so, because of the ground under his feet and Qi'ao's own reasons, he still couldn't stop the rope from slipping from his palm out.
And faster than his hand is Aoqi.
Probably Qi Ao was thinking "this is too bad" and just turned his head, Ao Qi didn't even look at Qi Ao's direction, he had already opened his arms and accurately wrapped around Qi Ao's waist, taking advantage of the trend Lifting, let Qiao hug her neck, and use only one hand to pull the weight of the two people.
The secret envoys surrounded them, from top to bottom, left, right, and each of them held their breaths in a solemn atmosphere. While the person in the middle was observing the situation on the mountain wall, they began to talk to each other sentence by sentence, and they heard the words in their ears. They were all duets with the same thumping heartbeat, and they were all frightened anyway, so don't make fun of anyone else.
☆, cave
Qi Ao hangs one hand on Aoqi's neck, and with the other hand free, stretches out two fingers and shakes in front of Aoqi, seeing Aoqi's brows and eyes open slowly, showing a slightly helpless and helpless expression, Only then did Qi Ao put down his hand and stretched out his own rope.
He had a habitual smile on his face, but this time he smiled more obviously at Ao Qi, even his eyes were bent: "How? Twice."
Ao Qi stared at the increasing amount of sand falling from the cliff, and the arms holding Qi Ao's waist became tighter.He couldn't see Qi'ao's expression, but hearing Qi'ao's tone, he could guess how happy Qi'ao was now.
Qi Ao's actions just now were too different from his usual character of thinking twice, and he was too obvious to prove his role in front of him. Combined with what Qi Ao said just now, Ao Qi knew that he was angry He also knew that Qi Ao's guess was right.
Anyway, from now on, what happened next is optimistic, so Ao Qi is also in a good mood.But when he thought about Qi Ao's impulsive behavior just now, Ao Qi still couldn't help but take out a joke to stab Qi Ao: "It's not clear yet, whether there will be two times will be discussed later."
As soon as Ao Qi finished speaking, he saw that the originally unmoving and impenetrable cliff was cracked in four directions with Ao Qi's Shuanglong Red Feather Sword as the center.
At the beginning, it was just a thin crack along the gap where Ssangyong Chiyoga was inserted. Gradually, the broken part spread into a small piece, and then spread out like a spider web, and the broken part was connected. , making a "click" sound in the air.The falling things ranged from sand to fine stones at the beginning, and finally large and small stones separated from the mountain. Once the seemingly unbreakable cliff has a little flaw, it is as fragile as an egg shell. A little wind blows Will be easily peeled off.
"I felt that there was loose and soft sand on that piece of cliff, while other places were hard rocks, so I deduced that it must be empty inside, and it must have been hollowed out, which caused this piece of rock to grow. It becomes more fragile than other examples. The sand still has some moisture, so there is probably a water pool inside, and it will not be too small, so that the inside will always be kept moist, and the water vapor will penetrate through the rough rock layer. Come outside." Qi Ao leaned over to Ao Qi's ear to explain, but his eyes fell on the broken cliff like Ao Qi's, seeing that the inserted sword moved slightly, Qi Ao pulled his own rope, Let go and push Aoqi's waist, "Go and draw your sword."
Aoqi let go of Qi'ao's left foot and kicked back, pulling the rope and swinging along the track, when passing over the sword, he stretched out his hand and nimbly grabbed the Shuanglong Chiyujian, and pulled it out with all his strength, a red A light flashed, and Ao Qi pulled out the sword that had been inserted deeply into it, and there was a crisp metal impact sound in the air.
The moment the sword was pulled out, a whole piece of broken rock that had been glued together began to fall uncontrollably in large chunks, fell into the sea, and was smashed to pieces by the surging waves.The movement made the circle of hidden guards tightly hold the rope, protecting Qi'ao and quickly retreat several steps, avoiding the broken earth and rocks under his feet.
It didn't take long for the earthquake-like vibration to last, and the rocks on the cliff almost fell off, exposing the soil covered by the rocks, and the rest should be the work of the hidden guards.
Qi Ao and Ao Qi stood on both sides, one on the left and one on the right, waiting for the emissaries to kick away the last layer of protective stone walls and soil, digging out a dark hole.
The sun is shining outside, and the cool air coming from the cave is more obvious in comparison. Listening carefully, you can hear the sound of "tick-tick-tick" water drops inside.
"Master and young master, please wait a moment, we will go in and investigate first." Wu Cheng led a few hidden guards into the cave to explore the way first, and the rest of the hidden guards were outside to protect Ao Qi and Qi Ao.
It was sunny outside in the morning, although there was light coming in from the cave entrance, compared to the light in the cave outside, it was still very dark, so it took a while for Wucheng and the others to adapt to the situation inside the cave.
The first thing that caught their attention was the fluorescent green above their heads, hanging like beads like rain, looking up as if the stars were shining under the night sky.Looking around, the stones glow faintly in the dark and are crystal clear. Large and small stone pillars stand or hang, like bamboo shoots, like dragons, which are the masterpieces of nature.
The dark guard checked the surroundings to make sure there was no danger around them before letting Ao Qi in.
Once entering the cave, the scene in front of him confirmed Qi'ao's guess.
A huge water pool is located in the center of the cave. Occasionally, a few drops of water drip into the pool along the stalactites on the top of the cave, causing ripples in circles.When the light came in, the shallow layer of the pool was emerald green, and the green became deeper and deeper as it went down. In the end, only a piece of black could be seen, and the bottom of the pool could not be seen.
while the front
The sun shines in, and every corner of the room is full of dust. The withered and yellow vines hang down outside the window, and the sun shines through the small holes in the dead leaves that have turned brown, and through the gaps between the leaves. Being driven away, even though it is not leaving forever, this moment is indeed a time to enjoy the sunshine.
"Ao Qi," hearing Qi Ao calling his name in a serious manner, Ao Qi slightly opened his eyes, waiting for Qi Ao's next words, "Let's change our itinerary, don't go north, let's go to Xuanyang Jedi Pavilion the Lord of the Pavilion."
Since the last time I heard about the Xuanyang Jedi Pavilion, Qi Ao had asked the emissary to inquire, but the other party was obviously more skilled than them in hiding, so he hadn't received any particularly useful information for a long time. The matter made Qiao put the matter of finding the Xuanyang Jedi Pavilion on the agenda again. If you want to improve your ability in a short period of time, the best way is to cooperate with more powerful people, even if you are not careful, you will be swallowed by the other party The danger, and the opportunity to take a big step forward cannot be given up because of this danger.
What's more, he believed that he and Aoqi would not be unable to deal with a Xuanyang Jedi Pavilion master.
This is the result of Qi Ao's deliberation over the past few days.
Ao Qi laughed, expressing his agreement, then put his arms around Qi Ao, leaned against his shoulder, and not long after, he heard the sound of his even and long breathing.
Qi Ao continued to read the novel in his hand, without any sign of discomfort.
That's why Ao Qi won't let go of Qi Ao.
☆, adventure
Xuanyang Jedi Pavilion, the only killer organization in the world that dares to exist aboveboard, also takes care of secret activities such as intelligence trafficking, killer hiring, sneak attack and assassination.
Although it has killed many people, it publicly declares that it has no hostility and is a neutral existence in the arena.In other words, as long as you pay it according to its standards, it can do any shady things for you, and it will also collect money from the underworld for the work of the underworld.
What if there is no money?In addition to providing him with enough gold, silver and jewelry, which is the simplest method, there is another way to meet the needs of the pavilion owner, do what he likes, and give him the person or thing he likes.
This method is a saying from inside the Xuanyang Jedi Pavilion. There are many people who have tried it, but only a handful of them succeeded in the end, and most of them disappeared in the Jianghu after they succeeded.
What is even more mysterious is that even those who exchanged missions by pleasing the pavilion master, none of them had ever met the pavilion master, and all the pavilion masters conveyed his intentions through envoys.
As time goes by, there are more and more rumors about the owner of Xuanyang Jedi Pavilion.
It is said that the owner of Xuanyang Jedi Pavilion is extremely ugly, with mouse eyes, pig nose and hare lips, blue and purple skin, big head and thin body, described as wretched.However, what kind of person is he? Except for a few high-level people in the pavilion, no one has seen the appearance of the pavilion master, so they can only roughly know that he is a man.
The reason why an assassination organization like Xuanyang Jedi Pavilion has been able to stand for a long time in this arena is because it just ingeniously grasped a delicate balance, so that everyone in the arena hated him to the bone, but no one raised the issue. Annihilate him, after all, everyone may need him one day, and no one wants to be an enemy of Quan Wulin.
There have been various intelligence organizations of different sizes in the rivers and lakes, but they were all eliminated or merged by Xuanyang Jedi Pavilion in the end. The only one that went wrong was Liusha Xingyue Tower based on family blood.
The reason why Liusha Xingyue Tower survived and became a secret organization comparable to Xuanyang Jedi Pavilion is that apart from the family as the most difficult connection, its organization is more formal and orderly.
Women account for nearly half of Liusha Xingyue Tower, and most of them are in the upper management. The biggest difference between it and Xuanyang Jedi Pavilion is that it focuses on intelligence while Xuanyang Jedi Pavilion focuses on assassination, but Liusha Xingyue Tower "Drunk Yanhong" who specializes in sex as a blade is also a legend in the world.
The above is Qi Ao's summary of the news about Xuanyang Jedi Pavilion based on the intermittent information fragments in the past few days.
They have been on the road for nearly a month and a half, and besides eating and sleeping, they pass the time by listening to all kinds of gossip.
A few days before the departure, the man in black killed him overnight, and the rumors in the next few days turned into the three of them for some unknown reason. It was about Dugu Aoqi, who was still suspected of murder, and was searching for the truth to wash his hands. One is Ning Ziyun, a young disciple of the Shuijing Sword Sect who has disappeared for a long time in the legend, and the other is Wen Ruo, who has no strength to restrain a chicken. scholar.What's more, the frail scholar who has no strength to restrain a chicken has a superficial appearance with Lonely and Aoqi.
Just when the story of the three men walking together intensified and was about to enter the ranks of the Eighteenth Ban and become a manuscript of a novel, the direction of the wind suddenly changed. I don’t know who connected these many things. A man with an arrogant appearance broke The Octagonal Formation of the Heavenly Moat is no longer news, and some people said that they saw Aoqi going in that direction before the Jishangguan was killed, and the Wulin people did not find the Five Elements Lotus in the Jishangguan after the Jishangguan was destroyed. Finally, there is a person who looks the same as Aoqi who has the opportunity to become a suspect, but in the end he is sick and weak, so naturally he is ruled out as a suspect.
Combining the above clues, everyone in Wulin came to the following conclusion:
Dugu Aoqi met and kidnapped Ning Ziyun by chance on his journey to find the real culprit, but he also kidnapped Ning Ziyun.Later, he met another person who looked the same as him, and this person aroused great interest and affection for Dugu Aoqi, but unfortunately, this person had been in poor health, so Dugu Aoqi wanted to make him recover in order to please the beauty. Jishang Guan broke the heavenly moat and the octagonal formation and forcibly snatched the five-element treasure lotus.Unexpectedly, this news would spread out soon, and the scholar's health still didn't improve after using the Five Elements Lotus, Dugu Aoqi became angry for a while and counted new and old grudges together, and wiped out the roots of Jishangguan.
"Well, to a certain extent, it's the truth." Qiao finished reading the rumors on the large sheets of paper he asked the emissaries to collect with a smile, turned around and looked at Ao with a mocking expression on his face. Qi asked deliberately, "Ao Qi, what do you think?"
Ao Qi replied without raising his head: "It's a mess." Then he continued to listen to Yi Lerong's report on the itinerary in Wucheng, who was driving.
Xuanyang Jedi Pavilion is not difficult to find, there are strongholds in various cities, teahouses, inns, theaters and even brothels, so that people who want to find them can contact them more quickly and easily.However, Ao Qi and the others don't intend to contact those small strongholds in Xuanyang Jedi Pavilion who can't talk or do anything. They want to directly find the main pavilion of Xuanyang Jedi Pavilion, get acquainted with the pavilion owner, and negotiate terms with him.
It took Aoqi and the others a lot of effort to find the main pavilion of the Xuanyang Jedi Pavilion, and they managed to get a clue. Faced with this unreliable clue, Aoqi and the others discussed it all night, and finally decided to stick to it. On the scalp, after all, it is still possible to try, if you don't try, there is really no hope.
The one-and-a-half months on the road was quite peaceful, except for the first period of time when some people came to challenge him desperately, trying to capture Ao Qi and snatch the Shuanglong Chiyu Sword, and some people even wanted to poke him, a "sick and weak" scholar. A few blood holes were used to distract Aoqi's mind, and in the end, without exception, they became the dead souls feeding the Shuanglong Chiyujian.
If you go further back, no one will bother you. If you say that you are scared by Aoqi, it can only be part of it. This time, even the rivers and lakes have become a lot more peaceful. It's not a common thing in Jianghu, so this rare peace made Qi'ao taste the mystery.
He didn't discuss this matter with Ao Qi in detail. First, he wasn't sure if he was thinking too much. Second, if there was indeed a problem, with their current strength, it was really impossible to compete with the hands that secretly controlled the entire Jianghu. It is better to have one thing more than one thing less, and the best strategy is to get the Xuanyang Jedi Pavilion done first.
When he confirmed this idea again, he and Ao Qi were standing on the edge of a steep cliff.
The lingering sea breeze is coming, mixed with the unique fishy and salty smell of sea water, the hair and clothes of the two are blown by the wind, the sun shines on the sea surface, sparkling light surges from the sea surface, and in the distance is A bright mirror.The ground under his feet was trembling, as the sea rolled up, the waves slammed against the rocks at the bottom of the cliff, and then the white waves smashed against the rocks at the bottom of the cliff, making a heart-pounding roaring sound.
Qi Ao took two steps forward, with half of his feet hanging in the air, and behind him was Ao Qi holding his arms tightly.
Qi Ao lowered his head to measure the distance with his eyes, and smiled at Ao Qi: "If you are not careful tomorrow, you will be smashed to pieces, not even a whole body."
Hearing Qi Ao's joke, Ao Qi pulled Qi Ao back abruptly, frowning and looking at Qi Ao with a serious expression, just looking at his gloomy face like the sky before the rainstorm, you can tell how upset he is now Well, Qiao reached out and squeezed his cheek and muttered "relax, relax" but it didn't save his stiff expression.
"Tomorrow, you and Ning Ziyun will stay in the hostel together. When I go down to investigate and make sure that this place is indeed the main pavilion of the Xuanyang Jedi Pavilion as reported by the informant, it will not be too late to pick you up." Ao Qi held Qi Ao behind his back. clothes, looked at Qi Ao and looked at the steep cliffs, and gave the order without any explanation.
Qi Ao raised his eyebrows, didn't say much, but began to think silently in his heart.
It was because he was too curious about the Xuanyang Jedi Pavilion, where the dragon never saw the end, and this operation was very dangerous. No matter how much he thought about letting Aoqi take the risk alone, he felt confused. When individuals are not in the same place, how can one person take risks and the other enjoy the benefits?
The next morning Ao Qi woke up before the sun rose, and after washing up, he went back to take a look at Qi Ao who was still sleeping.
It was still daylight, the sky was gray and gray, and Ao Qi didn't light the candle, so when he bent down, Qi Ao's face was completely covered in his shadow, so that the nose and mouth were a little blurry, except for the ink painting The eyebrows are stretched out and the long eyelashes are very clear, and the corners of the mouth are tightly pursed, showing a slight upward arc, but it's a pity that the mouth is not bloody at all, and it looks pale and miserable.
Qi Ao was still lying on his side, with the quilt slightly rising and falling as he breathed, Ao Qi just stood there watching for a while, and finally helped Qi Ao tuck the quilt, turned and walked out of the room, followed by Yi Wucheng and Zi Ye A dozen emissaries headed by them.
Chen Yu stayed behind to protect and look after Qi Ao.
Ao Qi got on his horse after leaving the gate of the hostel, and the secret envoy continued to follow behind.
This small village is about fifty miles away from the sea, and they still need to make some preparations when they get there. After all, it is the first time they have done this kind of thing, so they can only try to be comprehensive in terms of safety equipment. No one can escape from the cliff where Tao hits the shore.
In less than an hour, Ao Qi arrived at the place where he and Qi Ao stood yesterday.
On the cliff is a piece of gravel, and occasionally a few clumps of yellow weeds grow out of the cracks in the stone. Fortunately, there are also a few huge stones and a twisted tree, which is already very important for what they are about to do. Very good condition too.
The rope they prepared was specially made. It was twisted together with several strands of hemp rope, and some rags were brought along. This was to cushion the sharp rock corners protruding from the stone to avoid excessive wear and tear on the rope during the pulling process.
After Ao Qi stopped the horse, he turned over and got off the horse, walked to the edge of the cliff and stood facing the sea with his hands behind his back.
There was no one behind Aoqi at first, but in the blink of an eye, many figures appeared neatly behind him, all wearing black clothes and wearing the same mask, silently without making a sound, even their postures were exactly the same , stood with his head bowed, waiting for Aoqi's order.
The sound of waves sweeping from far to near filled the surroundings regularly, Ao Qi turned around and scanned these emissaries for a week, his eyes suddenly stopped at a certain place.The emissaries hadn't figured out why Aoqi didn't give orders all this time, they heard Aoqi's cold voice inserted into the sound of the waves near and far: "Okay, very good."
As if it was just a moment of breathing, Ao Qi's voice was even lingering in front of the team, and when they reacted again, Ao Qi had disappeared from the front of the line, suddenly appeared among their secret agents, and used a secret agent who was close to the old tree. An ambiguous posture firmly suppressed on the tree trunk - one hand raised the opponent's hands above the head and clasped them, the other arm wrapped around the opponent's waist, imprisoning the opponent in front of him, inserting one leg between the opponent's legs— —This way, the opponent has no room to move.
In the surprised eyes of the emissaries, Ao Qi stared at the other party as if he wanted to cut him into pieces, stared at Ao Qi and smiled abruptly: "Tell me, where did you get him?" ?”
A vague voice came from under the mask: "Probably still asleep in the hostel." The tone was very relaxed.
However, even if the voice was blurred, the emissaries quickly recognized the other party, and then gasped in unison - shouldn't this be the young man who is still sleeping in the hostel!
Ao Qi frowned and let go of Qi Ao's clasped hands, reached out to take off Qi Ao's mask, and the facial features carved out of the same mold as Qi Ao's were reflected in his eyes.
Qi Ao didn't realize at all that he had been deceived by his introspection, and was even a little proud of himself.As soon as the sun emerged from the bottom of the sea, the sun can't wait to shine on the sky and the earth. The golden sea surface reflected in Qi'ao's eyes, with a hint of cunning and firmness in Qi'ao's eyes, as if catkins were blowing across the sky. The spring grass stretches across the moon, and there are a few light yellow flowers dotted in the tender green everywhere.
Ao Qi and Qi Ao looked at each other for a long while, but they still had no choice but to look at Qi Ao's smile as usual. At that time, they were angry and funny, and wanted to kick Qi Ao to death to save so much effort.
Between the two of them, it was always Qi Ao who said what he said, but this time things were unusual, usually he just listened to Qi Ao, how could such a thing be a joke.
Besides, Qi’ao’s body hasn’t recovered at all. If it was the former Qi’ao, he would definitely bring Qi’ao with him, and he would be able to get twice the result with half the effort. In the process, I have to pay more attention to take care of him.
What Qi Ao was thinking about in Ao Qi's heart didn't understand something, he stretched out his hand, and half-tucked Ao Qi's collar, the distance between the two people who were originally entangled in breathing increased a little.
Qi Ao specially put on a soft and warm smile, the smile was warmer than the first sunlight that broke through the snow on the top of the mountain in early spring, and the incomparable persistence in his eyes deepened a bit: "I can't let go of this kind of thing." You went alone, and you asked me to wait for you at the hostel, don’t even think about it, even if it’s a burden, it’s your responsibility.” After the last time, Qi Ao will never let Ao Qi, whom she has brought along for so long, wade alone again Otherwise, it is not me who has to run around and work hard when I get into an inexplicable situation in the end.
The emissaries all turned their eyes to the sun who had just jumped out of the sea, expressing that the sun was not so dazzling.
☆, cliff
Ao Qi tied the rope to the tree and tied a knot, pulled hard, threw one end of the rope to Qi Ao, and then tied another rope himself.
The thickest and longest ropes were used as the main ropes, and the secret envoy threw one end off the cliff, and the other end was already tied to a large rock not far from the cliff that looked very solid.
The rope hangs down the cliff, swaying slightly with the wind in mid-air, waiting for Aoqi and the secret envoy to fasten the protective rope, check the protective measures of the whole body, and the adventure will begin.
Qi'ao tied several knots in the middle of the rope, and formed a net with other ropes, then wrapped it around his waist, and then used the rope to go around his crotch and pull it up to his waist, and then wound several times around the outside of the protective net.
Looking down, I felt that this method was much more comfortable and safer than just using the rope around the waist, so I went to Ao Qi and patted him on the shoulder, then took the rope in his hand without saying a word, and looked at the other The emissary who was tying the protective rope said loudly: "You are like me, first tie the rope into a net and tie it around your waist, and then wrap the rope around the outside a few more times to fix it. This is better than using the rope directly." He said, Qi Ao is seriously demonstrating on Ao Qi.
When squatting down to help Ao Qi get the rope, Qi Ao suddenly stopped moving, Ao Qi lowered his head strangely and saw Qi Ao raised his eyes to show him a complacent expression, then raised his index finger to gesture to him, and then there was a thunderbolt He poked Aoqi's crotch in the ear, and laughed teasingly: "Look, I'm not so burdened."
Ao Qi sighed helplessly, pulled Qi Ao up, and then opened his arms to signal him to continue, Qi Ao didn't do much at the critical moment, just now it was purely a warning of dissatisfaction with Ao Qi's belittling him.
A group of people tied up the protection rope, and helped each other to check it to make sure everything was safe. Then they put on thick gloves with coarse cloth and interlayer cotton sewn on the palm, and passed the main rope through the loose buckle left on the protection rope, so that they could go up and down flexibly, or Reduce the strength of the arms to pull the main rope.
After fully putting on this set of rough-looking but very safe equipment, half an hour had passed, the sun leaped from the bottom of the sea, and the sea surface turned into a dazzling golden color, even with the autumn wind blowing head-on.
After Ao Qi asked Zi Ye to protect Qi Ao, he nodded to the left and right, and was the first to fall backwards down the cliff. The figure disappeared so quickly that everyone held their breath until the main rope was obviously tightened. Trembling, everyone knew that it was Aoqi who pulled the rope and stopped.
Then everyone is ready to act together.
"Young Master, you little..." Zi Ye and Wu Cheng stood beside Qi Ao on the left and right, Zi Ye tightened the loose buckle a little so that the speed of the descent would not be too fast, while persuading him seriously.
In the end, before he could finish speaking, the figure around him jumped back faster than them, and what remained in Ziye's field of vision was only the white corner of his sleeve for a moment, and a faint cloud in the sky was blown away by the wind. up.
Qi Ao is no better than Ao Qi now, he doesn't have any force on his body now, his body is weak, but this activity is extremely testing of arm strength, this time everyone not only held their breath, but felt their hearts jumping out of their throats in fright, I couldn't even breathe anymore, I broke out in several layers of cold sweat, and jumped down one after another in a hurry.
Only when he got below did he see Ao Qi holding Qi Ao's arm with one hand, his face covered with dark clouds.
Qi Ao seemed to be fine, holding his main rope tightly with both hands, stepping on the cliff, comforting Ao Qi with ease.
Seeing that the tense atmosphere gradually condensed, Qi Ao let Ao Qi hold his hand, and smiled to the other emissaries who followed: "Everyone, don't be nervous, this knot can adjust the speed, just now Zi Ye helped me slow down , as long as the descending distance is mastered, nothing will happen." After speaking, he shook Aoqi's hand with his backhand and let go, this time he was the first one to descend.
Ao Qi immediately followed with a gloomy face.
After suffering from the hidden guards, a group of people were frightened twice before they were able to catch their breath, and they jumped down as soon as they stood still.
After descending like this for about ten times, almost reaching the upper part of the middle of the cliff, Qi Ao suddenly stopped moving.He reached out and touched the cliff in front of him, spread his hands to see the gravel and coarse sand in his hand, rubbed the sand with his fingertips, and put it in his nose to smell the moist smell of water vapor.
"Aoqi," Aoqi, who was also groping after hearing Qi'ao's call, turned his head, and saw Qi'ao's expression clearly moved two steps towards him, "The news is that on the cliff. part."
Ao Qi nodded and answered "yes", and saw a relieved but confident smile on Qi Ao's face, and the early morning sunlight dyed his brows.
Even Ao Qi couldn't help but be infected by Qi Ao's smile. The gloomy mood caused by various things just now dissipated a lot, so when he spoke again, he even softened a little: "What's the matter?" Such a tone can be heard aside The closest Ziye slipped.
"This cliff is thinner than the ones next to it." Qi Ao roughly drew a range around him with his hands, because his position was relatively low, so he had to raise his head slightly when talking to Ao Qi, the sun was shining brightly on Qi Ao's eyes were as bright as the surface of the sea, and his smile seemed to be coated with sunshine. He took off the mask that was too calm and gentle in the past and became full of vitality. "It's time for your sword to play a role."
It is said that the Ssangyong Red Feather Sword can cut iron like mud, break gold and crack rocks. No one knows whether it has this effect or is it an exaggeration. Even Qi Ao, who has used it, can only say that it is a very handy weapon, but in the end it is Because martial arts are different, it cannot be used to its extreme.
Ao Qi and Qi Ao changed positions, keeping Qi Ao at a distance behind him, then signaled the people around him to move away a bit, visually inspected the range Qi Ao drew, and slowly pulled out the Shuanglong Chiyu Sword from behind.
Dan Tian swung his sword in a state of indignation, and the red-glowing sword drew two brilliant golden lights that flew out in a cross shape, and slammed on the hard stone wall. The stone wall trembled slightly, except for a little sand falling Hearing the wind and not moving, the waves on the cliff beat and roared deafeningly, as if mocking the insignificance of human power.
Seeing this, no one dared to make a sound. Seeing Aoqi gritted his teeth, his expression became more and more gloomy, as if dark clouds gathered around him, and the sword in his hand screamed like a dragon soaring through the nine heavens. , It also seems that the wind is howling and the yellow sand of the desert is paved.
Qi Ao beside him still had a smile on his face, but the expression in his eyes was also a bit serious.
Qi Ao stretched out his hand and pressed Ao Qi's somewhat stiff arm, motioning him to adjust, carefully looking at the place where Ao Qi had slashed.
Approaching the cliff that Ao Qi chopped, Qi Ao pressed down bit by bit with his hands until he stopped when he pressed a spot.
Leaning close to the cliff, Qi Ao listened attentively and tapped the cliff with his hands. From serious thinking to stretching his brows and eyes, Qi Ao finally pointed to a place and said to Ao Qi: "It's here." After finishing speaking Pulling the rope with one hand, he kicked off with a few steps like flying lightly, leaving the next stage to Ao Qi.
The secret messengers stared at Aoqi without blinking, quietly waiting for Aoqi's mountain-splitting performance again.
Ao Qi breathed a sigh of relief, clenched the Shuanglong Chiyu sword in his hand, and every minute passed, everyone stood motionless in place like stone men, except for the sword in Ao Qi's hand, which gradually became as dazzling as fire.
A dragon's whistle shook the sky, and the trees in the mountains and forests in a radius of ten miles trembled.
Ao Qi adjusted his angle, then stepped on the mountain wall with both feet, bounced off the mountain wall, took advantage of the moment of flying away, raised his sword and stabbed fiercely towards the cliff wall.
Aoqi's posture is not easy to exert force, and the force of falling up and down is unbalanced. He only relies on his feet to fix himself on the cliff. In order to deal with it with all his might and to aim more accurately, Ao Qi let go of the rope and held the sword in both hands when he flew to the highest point.
So this time, the sword body was submerged in nearly half of the mountain.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
Seeing the sword being inserted into the stone, Ao Qi didn't show excessive joy or surprise, he still stood there expressionless, let go of the slightly hot hilt and stretched his ten fingers.
The huge reaction force made the tiger's mouth of Aoqi's hands feel painful and numb, coupled with the use of internal force to stimulate the sword energy of the Shuanglong Chiyujian, the sword that should have been tightly attached to the mountain trembled slightly, and the sword The red color on his body became more and more conspicuous.
Everyone held their breath and looked at the Shuanglong Chiyujian quietly, hoping that Ao Qi would get the desired result this time, but they waited for a long time, and the Shuanglong Chiyujian was just inserted there without any change.
Just when everyone was a little disappointed, Ao Qi suddenly heard Qi Ao, who was standing opposite, shouted: "Ao Qi." Along with the sound, Qi Ao, who was dressed in feathers like a flying crane, came over. He pulled the rope with one hand, and lifted his feet into the air, drawing a white shadow in midair.When passing by Ao Qi, Qi Ao suddenly stretched out his other hand to grab Ao Qi's upper arm, and with the help of inertia, he pulled Ao Qi back several steps to his left.
Because the backward force was too sudden, it was difficult to keep standing on the steep cliff. Aoqi lost his balance for a moment, and he was almost staggered and dragged a few steps backwards. Qi'ao's movements moved to the side, and he was almost slipped by Qi'ao's feet, but he was able to stand still with the support of a few secret messengers hanging over there.
Ao Qi was so frightened by Qi Ao's actions that his heart stopped for a moment. Just as he stood firm, he grabbed Qi Ao's wrist, wanting to educate and criticize Qi Ao's dangerous behavior of flying around on the cliff.Before he could open his mouth in time, a huge roar came from his ears. At the same time, the mountain under his feet began to vibrate differently than before.
Qi Ao looked at the situation in front of him with some satisfaction, while shaking the wrist that was hurt by Ao Qi just now.
The ground trembled more and more violently, and the hidden guard who originally relied on the strength of his arms to pull the rope to stand firmly on the mountain wall was a little staggering under such circumstances.And Qi Ao, who has been swinging around while pulling the rope, and spent a lot of effort to pull Aoqi away, has already expended a lot of strength, but just now he just pulled the rope with one hand, even he himself did not expect At this time, both feet will suddenly slip, and accidentally step on the air, hanging in mid-air, it is too late to find the next point of strength.
In the blink of an eye, Qi Ao's situation became very dangerous.
Before Qi Ao even had time to shout out, he already felt his body start to slide down.
Faster than the sound is his hand.Qi'ao didn't choose to look for a wall to step on at the first time, but pulled the main rope with all his strength. Even so, because of the ground under his feet and Qi'ao's own reasons, he still couldn't stop the rope from slipping from his palm out.
And faster than his hand is Aoqi.
Probably Qi Ao was thinking "this is too bad" and just turned his head, Ao Qi didn't even look at Qi Ao's direction, he had already opened his arms and accurately wrapped around Qi Ao's waist, taking advantage of the trend Lifting, let Qiao hug her neck, and use only one hand to pull the weight of the two people.
The secret envoys surrounded them, from top to bottom, left, right, and each of them held their breaths in a solemn atmosphere. While the person in the middle was observing the situation on the mountain wall, they began to talk to each other sentence by sentence, and they heard the words in their ears. They were all duets with the same thumping heartbeat, and they were all frightened anyway, so don't make fun of anyone else.
☆, cave
Qi Ao hangs one hand on Aoqi's neck, and with the other hand free, stretches out two fingers and shakes in front of Aoqi, seeing Aoqi's brows and eyes open slowly, showing a slightly helpless and helpless expression, Only then did Qi Ao put down his hand and stretched out his own rope.
He had a habitual smile on his face, but this time he smiled more obviously at Ao Qi, even his eyes were bent: "How? Twice."
Ao Qi stared at the increasing amount of sand falling from the cliff, and the arms holding Qi Ao's waist became tighter.He couldn't see Qi'ao's expression, but hearing Qi'ao's tone, he could guess how happy Qi'ao was now.
Qi Ao's actions just now were too different from his usual character of thinking twice, and he was too obvious to prove his role in front of him. Combined with what Qi Ao said just now, Ao Qi knew that he was angry He also knew that Qi Ao's guess was right.
Anyway, from now on, what happened next is optimistic, so Ao Qi is also in a good mood.But when he thought about Qi Ao's impulsive behavior just now, Ao Qi still couldn't help but take out a joke to stab Qi Ao: "It's not clear yet, whether there will be two times will be discussed later."
As soon as Ao Qi finished speaking, he saw that the originally unmoving and impenetrable cliff was cracked in four directions with Ao Qi's Shuanglong Red Feather Sword as the center.
At the beginning, it was just a thin crack along the gap where Ssangyong Chiyoga was inserted. Gradually, the broken part spread into a small piece, and then spread out like a spider web, and the broken part was connected. , making a "click" sound in the air.The falling things ranged from sand to fine stones at the beginning, and finally large and small stones separated from the mountain. Once the seemingly unbreakable cliff has a little flaw, it is as fragile as an egg shell. A little wind blows Will be easily peeled off.
"I felt that there was loose and soft sand on that piece of cliff, while other places were hard rocks, so I deduced that it must be empty inside, and it must have been hollowed out, which caused this piece of rock to grow. It becomes more fragile than other examples. The sand still has some moisture, so there is probably a water pool inside, and it will not be too small, so that the inside will always be kept moist, and the water vapor will penetrate through the rough rock layer. Come outside." Qi Ao leaned over to Ao Qi's ear to explain, but his eyes fell on the broken cliff like Ao Qi's, seeing that the inserted sword moved slightly, Qi Ao pulled his own rope, Let go and push Aoqi's waist, "Go and draw your sword."
Aoqi let go of Qi'ao's left foot and kicked back, pulling the rope and swinging along the track, when passing over the sword, he stretched out his hand and nimbly grabbed the Shuanglong Chiyujian, and pulled it out with all his strength, a red A light flashed, and Ao Qi pulled out the sword that had been inserted deeply into it, and there was a crisp metal impact sound in the air.
The moment the sword was pulled out, a whole piece of broken rock that had been glued together began to fall uncontrollably in large chunks, fell into the sea, and was smashed to pieces by the surging waves.The movement made the circle of hidden guards tightly hold the rope, protecting Qi'ao and quickly retreat several steps, avoiding the broken earth and rocks under his feet.
It didn't take long for the earthquake-like vibration to last, and the rocks on the cliff almost fell off, exposing the soil covered by the rocks, and the rest should be the work of the hidden guards.
Qi Ao and Ao Qi stood on both sides, one on the left and one on the right, waiting for the emissaries to kick away the last layer of protective stone walls and soil, digging out a dark hole.
The sun is shining outside, and the cool air coming from the cave is more obvious in comparison. Listening carefully, you can hear the sound of "tick-tick-tick" water drops inside.
"Master and young master, please wait a moment, we will go in and investigate first." Wu Cheng led a few hidden guards into the cave to explore the way first, and the rest of the hidden guards were outside to protect Ao Qi and Qi Ao.
It was sunny outside in the morning, although there was light coming in from the cave entrance, compared to the light in the cave outside, it was still very dark, so it took a while for Wucheng and the others to adapt to the situation inside the cave.
The first thing that caught their attention was the fluorescent green above their heads, hanging like beads like rain, looking up as if the stars were shining under the night sky.Looking around, the stones glow faintly in the dark and are crystal clear. Large and small stone pillars stand or hang, like bamboo shoots, like dragons, which are the masterpieces of nature.
The dark guard checked the surroundings to make sure there was no danger around them before letting Ao Qi in.
Once entering the cave, the scene in front of him confirmed Qi'ao's guess.
A huge water pool is located in the center of the cave. Occasionally, a few drops of water drip into the pool along the stalactites on the top of the cave, causing ripples in circles.When the light came in, the shallow layer of the pool was emerald green, and the green became deeper and deeper as it went down. In the end, only a piece of black could be seen, and the bottom of the pool could not be seen.
