Opposite the entrance hall
Chapter 93 I almost lost you again
The morning market in Kashgar is not as deserted as Lin’an. Before dawn, shops on both sides of the street have opened one after another. Candles hanging from the eaves illuminate a small area in front of the shops. For a while, it swayed from the street to the end of the street, echoed in the empty street, and shouted in a long voice: "The sky is dry, and the things are dry, be careful of the candles."
The sound is mixed with birdsong and other rustling sounds, and it seems a bit long and ethereal.
With a "creak", the door of the coffin shop at the end of the street slowly opened, orange candlelight shone through the door frame, and an old man with his neck hunched and his back walked out, with his hands folded in his sleeves, he saw Da Geng The husband beckoned, "Old Zhao is leaving."
"Let's go, the gate of the city will be opened soon," the watchman named Lao Zhao raised the gong in his hand, "It's very cold, go back and lie down under the covers and have a cup of hot tea, it will be comfortable."
While the two were talking, a strong wind suddenly blew up. The whistling sound of the wind slapped the door, the branches rustled, the lantern was shaken by the blowing, and the light and shadow also swayed. The wind was so weird that it didn't stop for a long time. The wind and sand squinted people's eyes and scattered the fallen leaves on the street, followed by the sound of footsteps in the distance.
The sound is very heavy, like many people walking but not disorderly, the frequency of each step is the same, gradually approaching, when passing the corner at the end of the street, the source of the sound becomes clear, looking along the source of the sound, it turned out to be a group of The people were going to the funeral, and they all wore white filial piety clothes. The strange thing was that no one was crying or playing the suona. They just carried a big coffin, pushed a few boxes half a person's height, and followed the team with their heads down. In the gray morning, against the pitch-black night, a group of men in white clothes walked at night, to be honest, it was very permeating.
The coffin was very large and the workmanship was exquisite and eye-catching. Old Zhao was right in the middle of the street. Seeing this, he ran to the door of the coffin shop and stood side by side with the boss. No one in the group noticed. They didn't even move their heads sideways. If they didn't see their shadows, the two of them probably suspected that they had seen a ghost.
This group of people walked quickly, and they arrived in front of the coffin shop in the blink of an eye. The candlelight hit them. People estimate that it is either rich or expensive.
Strange to say, as soon as the crowd walked away, the strange wind dissipated by itself. Lao Zhao patted his heart that had just passed through his throat, and said with some fear: "Whose family is going to have an early morning funeral. It almost didn't scare people to death." .”
"Who knows," the shopkeeper of the coffin shop pushed the door open to both sides, making a creaking sound, "this world is very chaotic, what's so strange about a dead person, last night Yao's family and Xiaoqiying almost turned Kashgar down." Is the bottom up, and I don’t know what to do, we people can live a day to day, let’s not talk about it, let’s work.”
Old Zhao shook his head and sighed, and left slowly with his tired body.
When the sound of the gong stopped, the soldiers guarding the city yawned and opened the city gate, and the gate opened a gap. The people who had waited outside for a long time immediately made mixed voices, and were ordered to stop by the soldiers, so they had to suppress their voices and squeezed. Rush inward.
The head shrugged and leaned against the shoulders to squeeze the small space, so when the group of mourners in white clothes appeared, it naturally caused quite a commotion. Someone stopped him, "Who are you lying here?"
The short and fat man standing in the middle of the line holding the spirit card took a step forward, and replied respectfully: "Master Guan, the old man lying here is my old man. The old man is old, and it is a happy funeral. He is about to burn his soul to heaven. .”
The soldier raised his chin, and the other soldiers were signaled to come forward and planned to open the coffin. The young men around the coffin refused to agree, and rushed forward to stop the soldier.
The man who spoke before was so anxious that he was sweating profusely, stomped his feet and jumped up, shouting: "Don't do it, don't do it, absolutely don't do it, what are you doing, this opening of the coffin is disrespectful to the dead!"
"There is an order from above. As long as there is something big, it has to be checked in Kaifeng whether it is going out of the city or entering the city. We are also following the order."
"This... this..." The man who spoke had his brows and eyes wrinkled together, with a look of embarrassment on his face.
"Second brother."
At this time, the man walking at the end said, "Since it is an order from the government, let's not make it difficult for others. The old man will not care if he knows."
"Oh," the slightly fatter man sighed, and waved his hand, "Let's go, let's go."
The coffin fell to the ground and raised a small cloud of dust. The people who carried the coffin tried their best to open the coffin. The lid moved down little by little to reveal the face inside. Putting his palm on the lid of the coffin, the movement of opening the coffin came to a sudden stop. He raised his head and said to the soldiers surrounding him, "Master Guan, it's not good to open this place with so many people."
The soldiers guarding the city looked at each other and looked around, and found that the onlookers were all staring at this place with their necks outstretched. Look down and look inside.
This is the head of the coffin, and lying inside is an old man with gray hair, his face is livid, his lips are purple, he is wearing a black shroud, his hands are like dead wood on his belly, he has been dead for a few days, There is nothing in it except a porcelain jar for holding ashes.
The inspecting soldier straightened up, exchanged glances with the person behind him, and shook his head.
The soldier in charge waved his hands a little irritably, "Okay, let's go, let's go, hurry up, it's really bad luck this early in the morning."
"Thank you, Mr. Guan," the short and fat man smiled apologetically, "Close the coffin, let's go faster, don't waste the time."
A group of people raised the coffin and regrouped, and hurried out of the city. It was still dark, and they were walking in the dark in white clothes, which was very eye-catching. The people outside the city turned their heads frequently, and they disappeared after a while. trace.
The vicinity of Kashgar is mostly gravel and low trees, and the terrain is uneven. Ji Si was awakened by a sense of swaying, just like sitting on a boat and swinging leisurely, without any sense of reality.
His eyelids trembled and he opened his eyes slowly. His eyes were pitch black, and he couldn't see any light. His nostrils were filled with a smell of wood mixed with a strong fragrance. It was a bit pungent and unpleasant. He was so smoked that he couldn't lift his strength, and he couldn't even move his fingers.
His limbs were weak and his whole body was weak, Ji Si could only turn his eyes to look around. He didn't know where this place was. The only thing he knew was that the space was very narrow and there were not many places where he could use his hands and feet. The man was curled up, as if he was being forced into a box, and there was a small sound of wheels coming through the wooden boards. It should be that someone was pushing him forward, the kind of bumps when the wheels were pressed against the gravel The feeling was extremely uncomfortable, sore and painful, and all limbs and bones seemed to be run over by wheels.
Where is this going?
Ji Si was thinking dizzily.
He remembered that he was in Kashgar city before his consciousness dissipated, so where is he now?
The previous group of people was a bit strange, although they were dressed as rogues, they didn't look like rogues, and their words and deeds seemed to be from the army. The army near Kashgar was either the Xiaoqiying Battalion or the Nandian Army, but why did the Nandian Army have anything to do with them?Or is it related to "Master Ji"?This is one of Ji's misunderstandings.
Second, they set up an ambush outside the city, for what purpose, and why did they try to bring themselves back to Kashgar City, and where are they going now after finally entering the city?
The effect of the drug was very strong, Ji Si's mind was drowsy, his eyelids were drooping, a bunch of questions made him have a headache, as if he was going to fall asleep in the next second, he squinted his eyes and continued to think about what was wronged by him Neglected.
Someone wanted to kill him. Another way to put it is that someone wanted to kill "Ji Si". Ji Si had noticed it when he was in Xiangzhou. The identities of this group of people were unknown, their purpose was unknown, and who they served was unknown. Ji Si even began to suspect that Zhou Ming's case It's just an introduction, the one who really wants to get rid of is actually himself.
As soon as this thought surfaced, he inexplicably felt chills on his back. Following this thought, some side points emerged.
If you guessed right, some people want to die by themselves. This group of people is just a knife, and the person behind it is the hand. They brought themselves back to Kashgar City to achieve a goal. Now the situation is that they are still alive, so it is probably The goal was not achieved, so I shouldn't be able to die in a short time.
Ji Si breathed a sigh of relief. He felt that this group of people should not have the habit of reading scripts, or else they would not understand the reason that they would rather kill mistakes than let them go.
He has always been big-hearted, even if someone puts a knife on his neck, he can still enjoy himself without making himself uncomfortable.
I don't know what time it is outside. Ji Si heard various birdsong through the thick wooden planks. Although the sound is not loud, it can be heard. It means that there are mountains and forests around, and the box is tilted. They should be in the Uphill, the city of Kashgar is flat, and the slope is so steep that it is estimated that it is no longer in the city.
The box wobbled for a while, and a faint sound of horse whining came through the board, and the shaking of the box stopped accordingly, and then a weak voice sounded: "Excuse me, is this the direction to go to Kashgar City?"
The person who came spoke Dajin dialect, the voice was very soft, Ji Si couldn't hear clearly through the thick wooden boards, he could only guess the meaning from the vague words, he didn't hear how this group of people He answered, and after a while, the sound of the horse bleating sounded again, and the man thanked him and was about to leave.
At this moment, Ji Si, who had been watching the situation quietly, suddenly bit his lower lip hard. After regaining some clarity of consciousness, he hit his head against the wall of the box with all his strength and made a thud.
The voice was not loud but not low, so that everyone could hear clearly, Ji Si ignored the dizziness and hurriedly used the pain to make another "boom".
The man seemed to have heard the impact, and the sound of hooves stopped, and then a voice broke the situation.
"Here are the old man's clothes, which will be burned to his old man soon. The road is not smooth, so you should pay attention, don't bump into it."
The person who spoke was standing next to the box, and Ji Si could hear him very clearly. Although his tone was a little awkward, he spoke in Dajin dialect, and the voice clearly belonged to the person who led the team yesterday.
Ji Sixin said: Oh, it's over.
Sure enough, the sound of horseshoes sounded again, and finally drifted away.
The man lowered his voice and warned: "Ji Shilang better calm down and not cause trouble, so that you will suffer less, and next time, I can only break your tendons and hamstrings."
After speaking, he patted the box very gently.
Once Ji Si thought about the reason that a person who knows current affairs is a hero, he didn't intend to use a pebble to hit a stone to make fun of himself, but he didn't make any more movements after that, closed his eyes, rested his mind and adjusted his breathing, trying to wait for the effect of the drug to pass.
The box swayed for a long time, but then stopped suddenly, as if it was attacked suddenly, the crowd suddenly became agitated, and then there was the sound of fighting, and the sound of blades clashing was extremely ear-piercing.
"Are you trying to break the covenant? The Lord is right, you Dajin people are really cunning, you can't believe it!" The first person to speak was the unknown Nandian man, still speaking Dajin dialect.
As soon as he finished speaking, another voice rang out, "Of course our master sincerely formed an alliance with your Lord Lang, but at the beginning we agreed to get rid of Ji Si, but now that he is still alive, you still secretly transported him away. I can't justify it."
"The covenant makes it clear that as long as you hand over Arumanlei to us, we will naturally get rid of this person and pay the money with one hand and deliver the goods with the other. This is good for you and me."
"Let you rest assured, Lord Lang, since what you promised, it will be done properly, but it will be a disaster sooner or later to keep Ji Si, why don't you let me get rid of it, and then talk about other things."
"Dajin has a saying that is good, the strategy of slowing down the army is to keep Chen Cang in the dark, and if you don't see Alu Manlei for a day, you won't be able to hand him over to you for a day."
"In that case, let's do it."
The following words were broken up by the sound of fighting between the two sides.
Lord Lang?Aru Manlei?
Listening to the conversation, Ji Si frowned and opened his eyes, and tried to move his fingers. Although he still couldn't lift his strength, it wasn't as weak as before.
The voices outside were very chaotic, and the voices were mixed with the sound of weapons. He didn't have time to pay attention to what these people were saying, but he raised his hand and touched the hidden pocket hidden in his thigh. The Anshen bag given to her on the first day of junior high school is still there, and the situation is not good. Ji Si's face is very serious. When she lowered her eyes and meditated, there was a "creak" sound, and the box was opened.
After staying in the dark for a long time, Ji Si didn't get used to the sudden bright light. His eyes were stinging and he subconsciously frowned, closed his eyes and turned his head to avoid it. After a while, after the stinging pain disappeared, he opened his eyes cautiously, raised his eyes, and grinned happily. Oh, it's interesting, he knows the person in front of him, not only does he know him, but he is also an old acquaintance, that Qian Duo who should have died in Xiangzhou.
"We met again, but Ji Shilang doesn't seem surprised to see me again?" Qian Duo tilted his head and asked in puzzlement.
"I was so surprised that I forgot to be surprised," Ji Si said with a pale face, even speaking weakly, "Why don't you close the box for me, and let's do it again after I adjust my state."
Qian Duo smiled, "Ji Shilang was joking, it's uncomfortable in this box, let's talk in another place, come and help Ji Shilang out."
Ji Si was dragged and thrown in front of Qian Duo. He sat slumped on the ground and looked around. All he could see were trees and sparsely populated. It should be the forest near Kashgar. There were corpses and swords all over the ground, and his body was covered in blood. , Some wore white mourning clothes and some wore black clothes. Some intestines spilled all over the floor, some bodies were separated, and some fell to the ground and wailed. There was a disgusting smell of blood in the air, and the scene was full of blood.
The coffins were scattered to one side, and the dead inside rolled to the side. It is not difficult to see that there has just been a big battle here, and the group of people had to hide themselves in boxes and sneak out of the city by means of a funeral, which means that Xiao Changyu has died. I have sent someone to search, and I have to find a way to not just sit around and wait for death.
Thinking of this, Ji Si narrowed his eyes.
"Farewell to Xiangzhou, you and I haven't seen each other for several months, how is the servant?" Qian Duo bent down and asked Ji Si.
"Hey, it's a bit strange." Ji Si raised his eyes but didn't look at anyone, just looked around with a confused look on his face, "Where is the dog barking in this wilderness, the chirping is so annoying, hiss."
Qian Duo grabbed Ji Si's hair and pulled it towards him, and sneered, "Ji Shilang is not as cute as he was when he was a child, I don't know if he is used to having fun, and he forgot that he used to lie on the ground in Zhangzhou to learn how to play animals for a steamed bun. On the day when the animal crows, you need a small reminder, ah."
As he spoke, he exerted force on his hands, his hair pulled his scalp, and his scalp pulled the corners of his eyes thin and long. The veins on Ji Si's forehead burst out in pain, his face flushed and he took a deep breath, but his mouth was not submissive. "This dog can't do anything else, but its voice is quite loud. It looks like a bastard at first glance."
As soon as these words came out, a murderous look appeared in Qian Duo's eyes, the veins on his forehead popped, he raised his leg and kicked Ji Si's abdomen hard. This kick used all his strength, and Ji Si was kicked three meters away. His back hit the tree trunk heavily and fell back to the ground, his throat tightened, a fishy sweetness surged up, and he spit out a mouthful of thick and warm blood, which dripped down the corner of his lips, and the abdominal cramps made him unconscious Curled up, a lot of cold sweat broke out on his forehead, his pale lips were stained with blood, adding a bit of glamour, making his face even more coquettish.
Qian Duo's pupils dimmed, and he rushed up a few steps and grabbed Ji Si's neck, smiling madly, "Is this dog sleeping with your mother anyway, logically speaking, you should call me daddy too, if I knew you were being raped You bitch, I fucked you first, so as not to save others, you don’t really think that someone will protect you if you climb him.”
As he was talking, he moved closer and said in a low voice, "To tell you the truth, he wants you to die, and you are useless. Ji Si, you won't survive today."
Hearing this, Ji Si's eyes sank, her thin lips were pursed tightly, and she was full of thoughts. He saw Qian Duo holding up the long knife in his hand and stabbing straight at his chest. The tip of the knife was about to fall. At the moment, Ji Si tore off the sachet from his waist and threw it at the person.
Qian Duo knew that this man was deep in thought, so he kept an eye out for him all the time. Seeing this, he stood up and backed away, subconsciously raised his knife and split the sachet from the middle, and the white powder inside flew away, his face paled. He hurriedly avoided being covered in the whole body, covered his nose with his hand and took a few steps back, frowning and asked, "What's on your head?"
Ji Si covered his chest and coughed repeatedly, vomited a few mouthfuls of blood, and the feeling of chest tightness dissipated a lot. Hearing this, he laughed loudly, "Tsk, aren't you asking nonsense? What else can you have, poison? Anyway, I If you are going to die, then you will not survive today, and we can still be a companion on Huangquan Road."
After he finished speaking, Qian Duo's expression could already be described as ugly, his pupils were bloodshot, his eyes widened as if he was about to eat someone, but a person came out from the side and leaned over to examine the powder scattered on the ground, twisting it with his fingertips. He put some in front of his nose and smelled it, then leaned over and said, "Boss, it's not poisonous, it's soothing incense."
"Hmph," Qian Duo snorted coldly, let go of his hand covering his nose, walked over angrily, kicked Ji Si's chest again, and bent down to warn, "You'd better keep quiet, I'll let you Die more quickly, Ji Si, don’t blame me, only blame you for trusting the wrong person, remember who wants your life today, in front of the Palace of King Hades, on the bridge of Nai River, if you’re a ghost, don’t come to me.”
The silver light from the blade hit Ji Si's face, his chest was heaving and unsteady, his pupils reflected Qian Duo's ferocious face, at this moment, his breathing became slow, he could clearly see the veins on Qian Duo's forehead, There is a sneer at the corner of the mouth, including the edge of the veins pierced by the tip of the knife when the leaves fall, and the surroundings are very quiet.
"Tweet, Tweet."
Suddenly, a strange sound sounded, getting closer and closer, as if coming from all directions, very close, just above them.
Everyone raised their heads when they heard the sound, and found that the sky was getting darker. When they looked closely, there was a mass of black birds hovering above their heads. Their wings fluttered and brought up the wind, and the feathers of the birds flew in a mess.
The voices came one after another, very noisy, and discussions erupted in the crowd, "Why are there so many birds suddenly?"
"What are these birds doing?"
"I'm going, these bastards are shitting on my head."
"Go away, go away."
The scene became chaotic for a while, all kinds of voices rang together, Qian Duo frowned tightly, his mind was disturbed by the chirping sound, in order to avoid unnecessary complications, the point of the knife was forced downward, unexpectedly, the group of birds went straight towards As he rushed over, the bird's beak pecked back and forth on his face, its wings fluttered, and bird feathers and droppings fell all over the ground.
Qian Duo was angry, with fierce eyes, brandishing a big knife, and shouted sharply: "Go away, these bastards, stay away from me."
People and birds fought melee, a group of people became a mess, Ji Si looked at the situation in front of him, his face was frozen, his eyes fell on the long knife thrown aside, he crawled on the ground and slowly wriggled, holding the blade with trembling hands, even frowning Without wrinkling, he swiped hard without saying a word, warm blood flowed out from the wound on the palm, the pain prevailed, his dizzy mind regained some clarity, and his limbs could move slightly.
He frowned and stood up, staggered towards the horse under the cover of the birds, and turned on the horse enduring the pain all over his body, his face was pale, and he was panting rapidly.
As soon as the horse's hoof took a step, it was hit in the abdomen by a big knife that flew out suddenly. He raised his neck and let out a dying wail. A foot stepped heavily on his back, facing the injured rib impartially, and even crushed it with the toe, Ji Si gasped in pain.
"I underestimated your ability." Qian Duo was in a panic, his clothes were stained with bird droppings and feathers, his face was ferocious, he exerted force on his feet, and seeing the sweat beads from the pain of the people under his feet, his smile was a bit crazy, " Let me see who else can save you now!"
Ji Si was lying on the ground, screaming and hurting all over his body, even opening his mouth to gasp for breath, it was so painful that his eyes went dark. He couldn't see behind him, but he could feel the knife getting closer and closer to him, as if the next second It will go through the back.
Eyelids fluttered slightly. When death was approaching, Ji Si's mentality was much calmer than expected. He was already a dead person, and now he didn't die again. The time stolen from Hades for so long was enough.
Enough shit!
Ji Si couldn't help but spit in his heart. If he could live, who would want to die? It's still such a useless death. He still has unfulfilled wishes, unfinished business, and Qi Ran...
Qi Ran.
Qi Ran is still waiting for him.
He hasn't told Qi Ran that he is Li Si yet.
He can't die, can't die.
Qian Duo was really determined to kill, the knife tip was only half a foot away from the person, and he was about to force his clothes into his chest, when suddenly, a long sword flew from a distance and hit the blade, with a "ding", The long knife snapped in response, and the broken blade fell to the ground. The long sword was stuck straight into the soil in front of Qian Duo, the hilt was shaking, and the bamboo leaf logo on it was shining brightly in the light.
The situation suddenly changed. Qian Duo stepped back a few steps with his mouth numb from the shock, looked at the broken knife in his hand full of anger, threw it aside angrily, and raised his head and roared: "Who? Who the hell is playing tricks again! Get out of here quickly."
There was a sudden wind in the forest, the wind blew hair, dust, and branches, Ji Si squinted his eyes and raised his eyes, the breeze was blowing, and he saw a person walking on the wind, the water blue robe seemed to be In the sunny day, he lifted his toes with the help of the branches, and floated down in front of Ji Si. His figure was tall and straight, his black hair was scattered, and his clothes were flying. He turned his head slightly and said softly, "Master Ji, I'm here to save you."
One person, one sword, just such a sentence, but Ji Si's tense heart sank. A person who should have been in Lin'an suddenly appeared in Kashgar thousands of miles away. It would be a lie to say that he was not surprised. For a moment, Ji Si Si thought it was a hallucination in her brain, staring at the person without blinking, fearing that the person would disappear in the next second.
Qi Ran didn't know what was going on in Ji Si's mind, he just bent down and carefully helped him up, raised his hand and tapped his acupuncture point to stop the bleeding, his eyes fell on the wounds all over the body of the man in his arms, his brows frowned, his thin lips were pursed tightly, his eyes were already With murderous intent, he lowered his voice and asked, "Can you still hold on?"
"I can't die for the time being," Ji Si smiled at people, "Why did you come to Kashgar?"
"I have something to do, passing by."
How can anyone come to the deep mountains and old forests to do business.
Ji Si thought of this in his heart, but he didn't expose this person, he just joked: "Then you probably didn't watch Huang Li to go out today, you can meet me if you pass by casually, do you think our fate is too deep, don't hit me Definitely."
The wound on this person's palm was still bleeding, his face was so pale that he couldn't see any blood, and he could still talk nonsense from the injuries all over his body. He didn't know if it was because he was bold or he didn't know what to do, but Qi Ran was really helpless.
While the two were talking, they seemed to block the people around them. Qian Duo's complexion was not good, and he interrupted the conversation of the two of them, "You two have a leisurely chat, maybe you forgot what this place is?"
Hearing this, Qi Ran looked back coldly, his eyes fell on Qian Duo and asked sharply: "Who sent you here?"
"It doesn't matter who sent us here, the important thing is..." Qian Duo sneered, "Don't even try to escape today, do it!"
The men in black beside him got the order, drew out their swords, lined up and surrounded the two of them, Qi Ran supported Ji Si to take a step back, staring at the long sword stuck in the ground beside him, and kicked hard with the toe of his right foot Picking, the long sword flew out from the ground, spun several times in the air, and landed firmly in Qi Ran's hand.
The sword is like a rainbow, the eyes are stern, the wind is blowing, the birds are singing, and the leaves are falling silently.
Qi Ran pointed his sword at the crowd and shouted loudly, "Anyone who is not afraid of death, stop me from trying!"
Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, and rushed forward with all their weapons held high. Qi Ran turned sideways to avoid it, and swung his long sword with his wrist. He slammed his foot against a tree trunk.
The men in black followed one after another, like a well-trained dead waiter, each knife was aimed at the weak points of the human body. This group of people used the method of fighting with wheels. Qi Ran's swordsmanship is excellent, and all attacks can be avoided He opened, but was surrounded by people and couldn't stand out from the encirclement, and because he had to protect Ji Si behind him, it didn't take long for him to work hard, his expression was already a little irritable, he squinted his eyes and stared at the surroundings without even daring to slack off.
Qian Duo stood outside the encirclement and watched the two of them coldly, with a sneer on the corner of his mouth, he stretched out his hand and ordered, "Bring the bow and arrow."
The people below quickly took the bow and arrow, Qian Duo took the upper arrow and pulled the bow, clamped the end of the arrow with two fingers, aimed at the front with one eye closed, pointed the sharp arrow at Ji Si, his eyes flickered Shen, the hand pulling the bow was released decisively, the sharp arrow flew away from the string like lightning at a high speed, breaking through the wind and resistance, the cold light of Cheng Liang emitted by the iron was faint but noticeable.
Qi Ran's ears trembled slightly. Hearing the change of the wind, his face remained unchanged. He kicked his left foot forward and his right foot vigorously backwards. With a pull on his side, the two switched positions, and he naturally turned to one side to avoid the arrow.
Unexpectedly, Qian Duo was waiting for this moment, and then two more arrows were fired in succession. These two arrows were faster and stronger than the last one, and Qi Ran raised his hand very quickly to split one. , the next one didn't even have time to react and hit the string, the blood spread along the wound in an instant, staining the clothes on his chest red, he staggered a few times and fell forward almost unable to stand, hurriedly Insert the sword into the ground to stabilize yourself.
The medicine on Ji Si's body was still under the effect of Qi Ran's support, and he almost fell to the ground this time. After standing still, he rushed to check without thinking about other things, the distress and self-blame in his eyes could not be concealed at all.
The two people's eyes met, and there seemed to be a thousand words to say, but the men in black around them didn't give them time to breathe, another round of fierce attack came towards them, Qi Ran's face darkened, he broke the arrow and threw it on the ground, Helped Ji Si up and said in a deep voice: "Follow me closely, don't let go."
As soon as he finished speaking, he swung his long sword, piercing through the fierce attacks of the crowd, and then tapped his toes on the ground, his figure disappeared like lightning, and the people in black around him saw the figure in front of him turning into a phantom, There was a wind in the forest, and the wind and sand disturbed the vision. In the gray dust, everyone's eyes widened, and they didn't even dare to speed up their breathing.
Suddenly, a figure flashed past Tu Kun's seat with lightning speed, his pupils were full of coldness, and he swung his long sword downwards, but in the blink of an eye, the man in black fell down, and the two found him. The gap, quickly jumped out of the encirclement and entered the forest, covered by dense branches and leaves, the figure disappeared within the range of everyone's vision.
The man in black thought he had the winning ticket, but he didn't expect Qi Ran to break out of the encirclement due to his serious injuries. He raised his knife and was about to catch up, but Qian Qian made a lot of noise.
"Don't chase," Qian Duo took a few steps forward, picked up the broken arrow on the ground to check, and saw that the blood stained on it had turned black, and a sneer curled up on the corner of his lips, "This is the border of Nandian, and the miasma will be gone soon." Come on, not everyone can get out of this green wood forest, not to mention that this person won't live long, let's go."
A group of people withdrew from the forest, leaving only the corpses of people and birds everywhere and the mess after the battle. The birds skipped across the sky, and everything seemed to have returned to calm.
As the most powerful barrier on the border of Nandian, the Cyanwood Forest can't be underestimated the complex dangers inside. The two supported each other as they shuttled through the forest, staggering and embarrassed. The clothes on Qi Ran's chest were covered in black and red. The blood soaked into dark green, his face became paler due to excessive blood loss, his steps gradually became heavy, his eyelids were as heavy as lead stones, every step he took was extremely difficult, and finally he fell heavily on the ground.
"Qi Ran!"
Ji Si even crawled forward and covered the wound with trembling hands. Viscous blood gushed out from the wound like an unstoppable spring, staining his hands, and the air was full of rust mixed with mud. the taste of.
"Why can't the blood be stopped, why can't it be stopped." Ji Si's eyes seemed to be covered with blood, his eyes were all red, his face was stained with blood, his hair was messy, and his hair was tied into strands by blood clots , his body couldn't stop shaking, sweat dripped down his cheeks, his voice was crying and trembling, and he seemed to have lost his mind.
"Master Ji..." Qi Ran put his hand on Ji Si's wrist, coughed before he finished speaking, clenched his fingers tightly, and said slowly: "When I came, I asked Chuyi to notify Xiaoqiying, The people from the Xiaoqi Camp estimated that they are coming soon. The Qingmu Forest is the border of Nandian. The terrain is intricate and changes every step. Ordinary people can’t go out. The miasma is getting thicker and thicker. When I came in, I observed the wind in this direction. The other place is damper, it should be because of the river in front, the effect of this drug is long lasting, but you should hold on to the tree and walk slowly, it should be fine, later..."
Speaking of this, Qi Ran's breathing became heavier, another mouthful of blood gushed out, his throat seemed to be broken, and his words became hoarse, "Later you follow this place... along the river...there is a river There must be a culmination or a tributary...you are wise...you will find a way..."
After a few words, Qi Ran was already drenched in sweat after he finished speaking, the poisonous gas on the arrow should have spread, making his face pale and purple, and he grabbed Ji Si's arm with his fingers upward.
"This miasma is poisonous... Cover your mouth and nose with your clothes, it's good to be able to prevent it... The road below is up to you...Be careful in everything."
Ji Si lowered his eyes and did not make a sound, his eyes were red and sore, as if tears would burst out of his eyes when he opened his mouth.
"If Mr. Ji returns to Lin'an... it would be nice to bring something home for me."
"I don't," Ji Si said in a hoarse voice, and the crying in the voice made the words tremble, "I won't take it, you are not allowed to die, I am not allowed to die, if you die, I will kill you The son was killed, as you know, I have been displeased with him for a long time."
Hearing this, Qi Ran smiled and didn't take it seriously, he coughed a few times and said softly: "Master Ji... just now I lied to you... I didn't pass by Kashgar, I came here specially to find you .”
"I know."
How could he not know, how far it is from Lin'an to Kashgar, mountains and rivers, sky and earth, so far away that he can't remember the direction of Lin'an.
"You don't know... How long have I been looking for, but it's okay, it's okay..." Qi Ran shook his head, with a thousand words hidden in his eyes, and said with a smile: "Little prince, I was the one who found you first this time." ... Next time it's your turn to look for me, I have to hide away like you, I can't, I can't let you find me so quickly."
Ji Si paused, as if he hadn't heard this name for a long time. Many things flashed in his mind. He remembered that he could find Qi Ran no matter where he hid before. He remembered that this person asked again and again during this time. If I have something to say to him, remember everything related to Qi Ran.
After a while, he suddenly raised his head and met Qi Ran's gaze, tears flowed down the corners of his eyes, his lips moved, but he couldn't say a word, he just held Qi Ran's hands tightly.
My heart hurts so badly that I can't breathe, my whole body hurts like I'm dying, his Qi Ran, why didn't he speak out earlier.
The eyes of the two met, almost without a word, just a look, all the sadness and love were clearly displayed.
"Little prince..." Qi Ran panted with his mouth wide open, and gently wiped away the tears at the end of Ji Si's eyes with his fingers.
The sound is mixed with birdsong and other rustling sounds, and it seems a bit long and ethereal.
With a "creak", the door of the coffin shop at the end of the street slowly opened, orange candlelight shone through the door frame, and an old man with his neck hunched and his back walked out, with his hands folded in his sleeves, he saw Da Geng The husband beckoned, "Old Zhao is leaving."
"Let's go, the gate of the city will be opened soon," the watchman named Lao Zhao raised the gong in his hand, "It's very cold, go back and lie down under the covers and have a cup of hot tea, it will be comfortable."
While the two were talking, a strong wind suddenly blew up. The whistling sound of the wind slapped the door, the branches rustled, the lantern was shaken by the blowing, and the light and shadow also swayed. The wind was so weird that it didn't stop for a long time. The wind and sand squinted people's eyes and scattered the fallen leaves on the street, followed by the sound of footsteps in the distance.
The sound is very heavy, like many people walking but not disorderly, the frequency of each step is the same, gradually approaching, when passing the corner at the end of the street, the source of the sound becomes clear, looking along the source of the sound, it turned out to be a group of The people were going to the funeral, and they all wore white filial piety clothes. The strange thing was that no one was crying or playing the suona. They just carried a big coffin, pushed a few boxes half a person's height, and followed the team with their heads down. In the gray morning, against the pitch-black night, a group of men in white clothes walked at night, to be honest, it was very permeating.
The coffin was very large and the workmanship was exquisite and eye-catching. Old Zhao was right in the middle of the street. Seeing this, he ran to the door of the coffin shop and stood side by side with the boss. No one in the group noticed. They didn't even move their heads sideways. If they didn't see their shadows, the two of them probably suspected that they had seen a ghost.
This group of people walked quickly, and they arrived in front of the coffin shop in the blink of an eye. The candlelight hit them. People estimate that it is either rich or expensive.
Strange to say, as soon as the crowd walked away, the strange wind dissipated by itself. Lao Zhao patted his heart that had just passed through his throat, and said with some fear: "Whose family is going to have an early morning funeral. It almost didn't scare people to death." .”
"Who knows," the shopkeeper of the coffin shop pushed the door open to both sides, making a creaking sound, "this world is very chaotic, what's so strange about a dead person, last night Yao's family and Xiaoqiying almost turned Kashgar down." Is the bottom up, and I don’t know what to do, we people can live a day to day, let’s not talk about it, let’s work.”
Old Zhao shook his head and sighed, and left slowly with his tired body.
When the sound of the gong stopped, the soldiers guarding the city yawned and opened the city gate, and the gate opened a gap. The people who had waited outside for a long time immediately made mixed voices, and were ordered to stop by the soldiers, so they had to suppress their voices and squeezed. Rush inward.
The head shrugged and leaned against the shoulders to squeeze the small space, so when the group of mourners in white clothes appeared, it naturally caused quite a commotion. Someone stopped him, "Who are you lying here?"
The short and fat man standing in the middle of the line holding the spirit card took a step forward, and replied respectfully: "Master Guan, the old man lying here is my old man. The old man is old, and it is a happy funeral. He is about to burn his soul to heaven. .”
The soldier raised his chin, and the other soldiers were signaled to come forward and planned to open the coffin. The young men around the coffin refused to agree, and rushed forward to stop the soldier.
The man who spoke before was so anxious that he was sweating profusely, stomped his feet and jumped up, shouting: "Don't do it, don't do it, absolutely don't do it, what are you doing, this opening of the coffin is disrespectful to the dead!"
"There is an order from above. As long as there is something big, it has to be checked in Kaifeng whether it is going out of the city or entering the city. We are also following the order."
"This... this..." The man who spoke had his brows and eyes wrinkled together, with a look of embarrassment on his face.
"Second brother."
At this time, the man walking at the end said, "Since it is an order from the government, let's not make it difficult for others. The old man will not care if he knows."
"Oh," the slightly fatter man sighed, and waved his hand, "Let's go, let's go."
The coffin fell to the ground and raised a small cloud of dust. The people who carried the coffin tried their best to open the coffin. The lid moved down little by little to reveal the face inside. Putting his palm on the lid of the coffin, the movement of opening the coffin came to a sudden stop. He raised his head and said to the soldiers surrounding him, "Master Guan, it's not good to open this place with so many people."
The soldiers guarding the city looked at each other and looked around, and found that the onlookers were all staring at this place with their necks outstretched. Look down and look inside.
This is the head of the coffin, and lying inside is an old man with gray hair, his face is livid, his lips are purple, he is wearing a black shroud, his hands are like dead wood on his belly, he has been dead for a few days, There is nothing in it except a porcelain jar for holding ashes.
The inspecting soldier straightened up, exchanged glances with the person behind him, and shook his head.
The soldier in charge waved his hands a little irritably, "Okay, let's go, let's go, hurry up, it's really bad luck this early in the morning."
"Thank you, Mr. Guan," the short and fat man smiled apologetically, "Close the coffin, let's go faster, don't waste the time."
A group of people raised the coffin and regrouped, and hurried out of the city. It was still dark, and they were walking in the dark in white clothes, which was very eye-catching. The people outside the city turned their heads frequently, and they disappeared after a while. trace.
The vicinity of Kashgar is mostly gravel and low trees, and the terrain is uneven. Ji Si was awakened by a sense of swaying, just like sitting on a boat and swinging leisurely, without any sense of reality.
His eyelids trembled and he opened his eyes slowly. His eyes were pitch black, and he couldn't see any light. His nostrils were filled with a smell of wood mixed with a strong fragrance. It was a bit pungent and unpleasant. He was so smoked that he couldn't lift his strength, and he couldn't even move his fingers.
His limbs were weak and his whole body was weak, Ji Si could only turn his eyes to look around. He didn't know where this place was. The only thing he knew was that the space was very narrow and there were not many places where he could use his hands and feet. The man was curled up, as if he was being forced into a box, and there was a small sound of wheels coming through the wooden boards. It should be that someone was pushing him forward, the kind of bumps when the wheels were pressed against the gravel The feeling was extremely uncomfortable, sore and painful, and all limbs and bones seemed to be run over by wheels.
Where is this going?
Ji Si was thinking dizzily.
He remembered that he was in Kashgar city before his consciousness dissipated, so where is he now?
The previous group of people was a bit strange, although they were dressed as rogues, they didn't look like rogues, and their words and deeds seemed to be from the army. The army near Kashgar was either the Xiaoqiying Battalion or the Nandian Army, but why did the Nandian Army have anything to do with them?Or is it related to "Master Ji"?This is one of Ji's misunderstandings.
Second, they set up an ambush outside the city, for what purpose, and why did they try to bring themselves back to Kashgar City, and where are they going now after finally entering the city?
The effect of the drug was very strong, Ji Si's mind was drowsy, his eyelids were drooping, a bunch of questions made him have a headache, as if he was going to fall asleep in the next second, he squinted his eyes and continued to think about what was wronged by him Neglected.
Someone wanted to kill him. Another way to put it is that someone wanted to kill "Ji Si". Ji Si had noticed it when he was in Xiangzhou. The identities of this group of people were unknown, their purpose was unknown, and who they served was unknown. Ji Si even began to suspect that Zhou Ming's case It's just an introduction, the one who really wants to get rid of is actually himself.
As soon as this thought surfaced, he inexplicably felt chills on his back. Following this thought, some side points emerged.
If you guessed right, some people want to die by themselves. This group of people is just a knife, and the person behind it is the hand. They brought themselves back to Kashgar City to achieve a goal. Now the situation is that they are still alive, so it is probably The goal was not achieved, so I shouldn't be able to die in a short time.
Ji Si breathed a sigh of relief. He felt that this group of people should not have the habit of reading scripts, or else they would not understand the reason that they would rather kill mistakes than let them go.
He has always been big-hearted, even if someone puts a knife on his neck, he can still enjoy himself without making himself uncomfortable.
I don't know what time it is outside. Ji Si heard various birdsong through the thick wooden planks. Although the sound is not loud, it can be heard. It means that there are mountains and forests around, and the box is tilted. They should be in the Uphill, the city of Kashgar is flat, and the slope is so steep that it is estimated that it is no longer in the city.
The box wobbled for a while, and a faint sound of horse whining came through the board, and the shaking of the box stopped accordingly, and then a weak voice sounded: "Excuse me, is this the direction to go to Kashgar City?"
The person who came spoke Dajin dialect, the voice was very soft, Ji Si couldn't hear clearly through the thick wooden boards, he could only guess the meaning from the vague words, he didn't hear how this group of people He answered, and after a while, the sound of the horse bleating sounded again, and the man thanked him and was about to leave.
At this moment, Ji Si, who had been watching the situation quietly, suddenly bit his lower lip hard. After regaining some clarity of consciousness, he hit his head against the wall of the box with all his strength and made a thud.
The voice was not loud but not low, so that everyone could hear clearly, Ji Si ignored the dizziness and hurriedly used the pain to make another "boom".
The man seemed to have heard the impact, and the sound of hooves stopped, and then a voice broke the situation.
"Here are the old man's clothes, which will be burned to his old man soon. The road is not smooth, so you should pay attention, don't bump into it."
The person who spoke was standing next to the box, and Ji Si could hear him very clearly. Although his tone was a little awkward, he spoke in Dajin dialect, and the voice clearly belonged to the person who led the team yesterday.
Ji Sixin said: Oh, it's over.
Sure enough, the sound of horseshoes sounded again, and finally drifted away.
The man lowered his voice and warned: "Ji Shilang better calm down and not cause trouble, so that you will suffer less, and next time, I can only break your tendons and hamstrings."
After speaking, he patted the box very gently.
Once Ji Si thought about the reason that a person who knows current affairs is a hero, he didn't intend to use a pebble to hit a stone to make fun of himself, but he didn't make any more movements after that, closed his eyes, rested his mind and adjusted his breathing, trying to wait for the effect of the drug to pass.
The box swayed for a long time, but then stopped suddenly, as if it was attacked suddenly, the crowd suddenly became agitated, and then there was the sound of fighting, and the sound of blades clashing was extremely ear-piercing.
"Are you trying to break the covenant? The Lord is right, you Dajin people are really cunning, you can't believe it!" The first person to speak was the unknown Nandian man, still speaking Dajin dialect.
As soon as he finished speaking, another voice rang out, "Of course our master sincerely formed an alliance with your Lord Lang, but at the beginning we agreed to get rid of Ji Si, but now that he is still alive, you still secretly transported him away. I can't justify it."
"The covenant makes it clear that as long as you hand over Arumanlei to us, we will naturally get rid of this person and pay the money with one hand and deliver the goods with the other. This is good for you and me."
"Let you rest assured, Lord Lang, since what you promised, it will be done properly, but it will be a disaster sooner or later to keep Ji Si, why don't you let me get rid of it, and then talk about other things."
"Dajin has a saying that is good, the strategy of slowing down the army is to keep Chen Cang in the dark, and if you don't see Alu Manlei for a day, you won't be able to hand him over to you for a day."
"In that case, let's do it."
The following words were broken up by the sound of fighting between the two sides.
Lord Lang?Aru Manlei?
Listening to the conversation, Ji Si frowned and opened his eyes, and tried to move his fingers. Although he still couldn't lift his strength, it wasn't as weak as before.
The voices outside were very chaotic, and the voices were mixed with the sound of weapons. He didn't have time to pay attention to what these people were saying, but he raised his hand and touched the hidden pocket hidden in his thigh. The Anshen bag given to her on the first day of junior high school is still there, and the situation is not good. Ji Si's face is very serious. When she lowered her eyes and meditated, there was a "creak" sound, and the box was opened.
After staying in the dark for a long time, Ji Si didn't get used to the sudden bright light. His eyes were stinging and he subconsciously frowned, closed his eyes and turned his head to avoid it. After a while, after the stinging pain disappeared, he opened his eyes cautiously, raised his eyes, and grinned happily. Oh, it's interesting, he knows the person in front of him, not only does he know him, but he is also an old acquaintance, that Qian Duo who should have died in Xiangzhou.
"We met again, but Ji Shilang doesn't seem surprised to see me again?" Qian Duo tilted his head and asked in puzzlement.
"I was so surprised that I forgot to be surprised," Ji Si said with a pale face, even speaking weakly, "Why don't you close the box for me, and let's do it again after I adjust my state."
Qian Duo smiled, "Ji Shilang was joking, it's uncomfortable in this box, let's talk in another place, come and help Ji Shilang out."
Ji Si was dragged and thrown in front of Qian Duo. He sat slumped on the ground and looked around. All he could see were trees and sparsely populated. It should be the forest near Kashgar. There were corpses and swords all over the ground, and his body was covered in blood. , Some wore white mourning clothes and some wore black clothes. Some intestines spilled all over the floor, some bodies were separated, and some fell to the ground and wailed. There was a disgusting smell of blood in the air, and the scene was full of blood.
The coffins were scattered to one side, and the dead inside rolled to the side. It is not difficult to see that there has just been a big battle here, and the group of people had to hide themselves in boxes and sneak out of the city by means of a funeral, which means that Xiao Changyu has died. I have sent someone to search, and I have to find a way to not just sit around and wait for death.
Thinking of this, Ji Si narrowed his eyes.
"Farewell to Xiangzhou, you and I haven't seen each other for several months, how is the servant?" Qian Duo bent down and asked Ji Si.
"Hey, it's a bit strange." Ji Si raised his eyes but didn't look at anyone, just looked around with a confused look on his face, "Where is the dog barking in this wilderness, the chirping is so annoying, hiss."
Qian Duo grabbed Ji Si's hair and pulled it towards him, and sneered, "Ji Shilang is not as cute as he was when he was a child, I don't know if he is used to having fun, and he forgot that he used to lie on the ground in Zhangzhou to learn how to play animals for a steamed bun. On the day when the animal crows, you need a small reminder, ah."
As he spoke, he exerted force on his hands, his hair pulled his scalp, and his scalp pulled the corners of his eyes thin and long. The veins on Ji Si's forehead burst out in pain, his face flushed and he took a deep breath, but his mouth was not submissive. "This dog can't do anything else, but its voice is quite loud. It looks like a bastard at first glance."
As soon as these words came out, a murderous look appeared in Qian Duo's eyes, the veins on his forehead popped, he raised his leg and kicked Ji Si's abdomen hard. This kick used all his strength, and Ji Si was kicked three meters away. His back hit the tree trunk heavily and fell back to the ground, his throat tightened, a fishy sweetness surged up, and he spit out a mouthful of thick and warm blood, which dripped down the corner of his lips, and the abdominal cramps made him unconscious Curled up, a lot of cold sweat broke out on his forehead, his pale lips were stained with blood, adding a bit of glamour, making his face even more coquettish.
Qian Duo's pupils dimmed, and he rushed up a few steps and grabbed Ji Si's neck, smiling madly, "Is this dog sleeping with your mother anyway, logically speaking, you should call me daddy too, if I knew you were being raped You bitch, I fucked you first, so as not to save others, you don’t really think that someone will protect you if you climb him.”
As he was talking, he moved closer and said in a low voice, "To tell you the truth, he wants you to die, and you are useless. Ji Si, you won't survive today."
Hearing this, Ji Si's eyes sank, her thin lips were pursed tightly, and she was full of thoughts. He saw Qian Duo holding up the long knife in his hand and stabbing straight at his chest. The tip of the knife was about to fall. At the moment, Ji Si tore off the sachet from his waist and threw it at the person.
Qian Duo knew that this man was deep in thought, so he kept an eye out for him all the time. Seeing this, he stood up and backed away, subconsciously raised his knife and split the sachet from the middle, and the white powder inside flew away, his face paled. He hurriedly avoided being covered in the whole body, covered his nose with his hand and took a few steps back, frowning and asked, "What's on your head?"
Ji Si covered his chest and coughed repeatedly, vomited a few mouthfuls of blood, and the feeling of chest tightness dissipated a lot. Hearing this, he laughed loudly, "Tsk, aren't you asking nonsense? What else can you have, poison? Anyway, I If you are going to die, then you will not survive today, and we can still be a companion on Huangquan Road."
After he finished speaking, Qian Duo's expression could already be described as ugly, his pupils were bloodshot, his eyes widened as if he was about to eat someone, but a person came out from the side and leaned over to examine the powder scattered on the ground, twisting it with his fingertips. He put some in front of his nose and smelled it, then leaned over and said, "Boss, it's not poisonous, it's soothing incense."
"Hmph," Qian Duo snorted coldly, let go of his hand covering his nose, walked over angrily, kicked Ji Si's chest again, and bent down to warn, "You'd better keep quiet, I'll let you Die more quickly, Ji Si, don’t blame me, only blame you for trusting the wrong person, remember who wants your life today, in front of the Palace of King Hades, on the bridge of Nai River, if you’re a ghost, don’t come to me.”
The silver light from the blade hit Ji Si's face, his chest was heaving and unsteady, his pupils reflected Qian Duo's ferocious face, at this moment, his breathing became slow, he could clearly see the veins on Qian Duo's forehead, There is a sneer at the corner of the mouth, including the edge of the veins pierced by the tip of the knife when the leaves fall, and the surroundings are very quiet.
"Tweet, Tweet."
Suddenly, a strange sound sounded, getting closer and closer, as if coming from all directions, very close, just above them.
Everyone raised their heads when they heard the sound, and found that the sky was getting darker. When they looked closely, there was a mass of black birds hovering above their heads. Their wings fluttered and brought up the wind, and the feathers of the birds flew in a mess.
The voices came one after another, very noisy, and discussions erupted in the crowd, "Why are there so many birds suddenly?"
"What are these birds doing?"
"I'm going, these bastards are shitting on my head."
"Go away, go away."
The scene became chaotic for a while, all kinds of voices rang together, Qian Duo frowned tightly, his mind was disturbed by the chirping sound, in order to avoid unnecessary complications, the point of the knife was forced downward, unexpectedly, the group of birds went straight towards As he rushed over, the bird's beak pecked back and forth on his face, its wings fluttered, and bird feathers and droppings fell all over the ground.
Qian Duo was angry, with fierce eyes, brandishing a big knife, and shouted sharply: "Go away, these bastards, stay away from me."
People and birds fought melee, a group of people became a mess, Ji Si looked at the situation in front of him, his face was frozen, his eyes fell on the long knife thrown aside, he crawled on the ground and slowly wriggled, holding the blade with trembling hands, even frowning Without wrinkling, he swiped hard without saying a word, warm blood flowed out from the wound on the palm, the pain prevailed, his dizzy mind regained some clarity, and his limbs could move slightly.
He frowned and stood up, staggered towards the horse under the cover of the birds, and turned on the horse enduring the pain all over his body, his face was pale, and he was panting rapidly.
As soon as the horse's hoof took a step, it was hit in the abdomen by a big knife that flew out suddenly. He raised his neck and let out a dying wail. A foot stepped heavily on his back, facing the injured rib impartially, and even crushed it with the toe, Ji Si gasped in pain.
"I underestimated your ability." Qian Duo was in a panic, his clothes were stained with bird droppings and feathers, his face was ferocious, he exerted force on his feet, and seeing the sweat beads from the pain of the people under his feet, his smile was a bit crazy, " Let me see who else can save you now!"
Ji Si was lying on the ground, screaming and hurting all over his body, even opening his mouth to gasp for breath, it was so painful that his eyes went dark. He couldn't see behind him, but he could feel the knife getting closer and closer to him, as if the next second It will go through the back.
Eyelids fluttered slightly. When death was approaching, Ji Si's mentality was much calmer than expected. He was already a dead person, and now he didn't die again. The time stolen from Hades for so long was enough.
Enough shit!
Ji Si couldn't help but spit in his heart. If he could live, who would want to die? It's still such a useless death. He still has unfulfilled wishes, unfinished business, and Qi Ran...
Qi Ran.
Qi Ran is still waiting for him.
He hasn't told Qi Ran that he is Li Si yet.
He can't die, can't die.
Qian Duo was really determined to kill, the knife tip was only half a foot away from the person, and he was about to force his clothes into his chest, when suddenly, a long sword flew from a distance and hit the blade, with a "ding", The long knife snapped in response, and the broken blade fell to the ground. The long sword was stuck straight into the soil in front of Qian Duo, the hilt was shaking, and the bamboo leaf logo on it was shining brightly in the light.
The situation suddenly changed. Qian Duo stepped back a few steps with his mouth numb from the shock, looked at the broken knife in his hand full of anger, threw it aside angrily, and raised his head and roared: "Who? Who the hell is playing tricks again! Get out of here quickly."
There was a sudden wind in the forest, the wind blew hair, dust, and branches, Ji Si squinted his eyes and raised his eyes, the breeze was blowing, and he saw a person walking on the wind, the water blue robe seemed to be In the sunny day, he lifted his toes with the help of the branches, and floated down in front of Ji Si. His figure was tall and straight, his black hair was scattered, and his clothes were flying. He turned his head slightly and said softly, "Master Ji, I'm here to save you."
One person, one sword, just such a sentence, but Ji Si's tense heart sank. A person who should have been in Lin'an suddenly appeared in Kashgar thousands of miles away. It would be a lie to say that he was not surprised. For a moment, Ji Si Si thought it was a hallucination in her brain, staring at the person without blinking, fearing that the person would disappear in the next second.
Qi Ran didn't know what was going on in Ji Si's mind, he just bent down and carefully helped him up, raised his hand and tapped his acupuncture point to stop the bleeding, his eyes fell on the wounds all over the body of the man in his arms, his brows frowned, his thin lips were pursed tightly, his eyes were already With murderous intent, he lowered his voice and asked, "Can you still hold on?"
"I can't die for the time being," Ji Si smiled at people, "Why did you come to Kashgar?"
"I have something to do, passing by."
How can anyone come to the deep mountains and old forests to do business.
Ji Si thought of this in his heart, but he didn't expose this person, he just joked: "Then you probably didn't watch Huang Li to go out today, you can meet me if you pass by casually, do you think our fate is too deep, don't hit me Definitely."
The wound on this person's palm was still bleeding, his face was so pale that he couldn't see any blood, and he could still talk nonsense from the injuries all over his body. He didn't know if it was because he was bold or he didn't know what to do, but Qi Ran was really helpless.
While the two were talking, they seemed to block the people around them. Qian Duo's complexion was not good, and he interrupted the conversation of the two of them, "You two have a leisurely chat, maybe you forgot what this place is?"
Hearing this, Qi Ran looked back coldly, his eyes fell on Qian Duo and asked sharply: "Who sent you here?"
"It doesn't matter who sent us here, the important thing is..." Qian Duo sneered, "Don't even try to escape today, do it!"
The men in black beside him got the order, drew out their swords, lined up and surrounded the two of them, Qi Ran supported Ji Si to take a step back, staring at the long sword stuck in the ground beside him, and kicked hard with the toe of his right foot Picking, the long sword flew out from the ground, spun several times in the air, and landed firmly in Qi Ran's hand.
The sword is like a rainbow, the eyes are stern, the wind is blowing, the birds are singing, and the leaves are falling silently.
Qi Ran pointed his sword at the crowd and shouted loudly, "Anyone who is not afraid of death, stop me from trying!"
Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, and rushed forward with all their weapons held high. Qi Ran turned sideways to avoid it, and swung his long sword with his wrist. He slammed his foot against a tree trunk.
The men in black followed one after another, like a well-trained dead waiter, each knife was aimed at the weak points of the human body. This group of people used the method of fighting with wheels. Qi Ran's swordsmanship is excellent, and all attacks can be avoided He opened, but was surrounded by people and couldn't stand out from the encirclement, and because he had to protect Ji Si behind him, it didn't take long for him to work hard, his expression was already a little irritable, he squinted his eyes and stared at the surroundings without even daring to slack off.
Qian Duo stood outside the encirclement and watched the two of them coldly, with a sneer on the corner of his mouth, he stretched out his hand and ordered, "Bring the bow and arrow."
The people below quickly took the bow and arrow, Qian Duo took the upper arrow and pulled the bow, clamped the end of the arrow with two fingers, aimed at the front with one eye closed, pointed the sharp arrow at Ji Si, his eyes flickered Shen, the hand pulling the bow was released decisively, the sharp arrow flew away from the string like lightning at a high speed, breaking through the wind and resistance, the cold light of Cheng Liang emitted by the iron was faint but noticeable.
Qi Ran's ears trembled slightly. Hearing the change of the wind, his face remained unchanged. He kicked his left foot forward and his right foot vigorously backwards. With a pull on his side, the two switched positions, and he naturally turned to one side to avoid the arrow.
Unexpectedly, Qian Duo was waiting for this moment, and then two more arrows were fired in succession. These two arrows were faster and stronger than the last one, and Qi Ran raised his hand very quickly to split one. , the next one didn't even have time to react and hit the string, the blood spread along the wound in an instant, staining the clothes on his chest red, he staggered a few times and fell forward almost unable to stand, hurriedly Insert the sword into the ground to stabilize yourself.
The medicine on Ji Si's body was still under the effect of Qi Ran's support, and he almost fell to the ground this time. After standing still, he rushed to check without thinking about other things, the distress and self-blame in his eyes could not be concealed at all.
The two people's eyes met, and there seemed to be a thousand words to say, but the men in black around them didn't give them time to breathe, another round of fierce attack came towards them, Qi Ran's face darkened, he broke the arrow and threw it on the ground, Helped Ji Si up and said in a deep voice: "Follow me closely, don't let go."
As soon as he finished speaking, he swung his long sword, piercing through the fierce attacks of the crowd, and then tapped his toes on the ground, his figure disappeared like lightning, and the people in black around him saw the figure in front of him turning into a phantom, There was a wind in the forest, and the wind and sand disturbed the vision. In the gray dust, everyone's eyes widened, and they didn't even dare to speed up their breathing.
Suddenly, a figure flashed past Tu Kun's seat with lightning speed, his pupils were full of coldness, and he swung his long sword downwards, but in the blink of an eye, the man in black fell down, and the two found him. The gap, quickly jumped out of the encirclement and entered the forest, covered by dense branches and leaves, the figure disappeared within the range of everyone's vision.
The man in black thought he had the winning ticket, but he didn't expect Qi Ran to break out of the encirclement due to his serious injuries. He raised his knife and was about to catch up, but Qian Qian made a lot of noise.
"Don't chase," Qian Duo took a few steps forward, picked up the broken arrow on the ground to check, and saw that the blood stained on it had turned black, and a sneer curled up on the corner of his lips, "This is the border of Nandian, and the miasma will be gone soon." Come on, not everyone can get out of this green wood forest, not to mention that this person won't live long, let's go."
A group of people withdrew from the forest, leaving only the corpses of people and birds everywhere and the mess after the battle. The birds skipped across the sky, and everything seemed to have returned to calm.
As the most powerful barrier on the border of Nandian, the Cyanwood Forest can't be underestimated the complex dangers inside. The two supported each other as they shuttled through the forest, staggering and embarrassed. The clothes on Qi Ran's chest were covered in black and red. The blood soaked into dark green, his face became paler due to excessive blood loss, his steps gradually became heavy, his eyelids were as heavy as lead stones, every step he took was extremely difficult, and finally he fell heavily on the ground.
"Qi Ran!"
Ji Si even crawled forward and covered the wound with trembling hands. Viscous blood gushed out from the wound like an unstoppable spring, staining his hands, and the air was full of rust mixed with mud. the taste of.
"Why can't the blood be stopped, why can't it be stopped." Ji Si's eyes seemed to be covered with blood, his eyes were all red, his face was stained with blood, his hair was messy, and his hair was tied into strands by blood clots , his body couldn't stop shaking, sweat dripped down his cheeks, his voice was crying and trembling, and he seemed to have lost his mind.
"Master Ji..." Qi Ran put his hand on Ji Si's wrist, coughed before he finished speaking, clenched his fingers tightly, and said slowly: "When I came, I asked Chuyi to notify Xiaoqiying, The people from the Xiaoqi Camp estimated that they are coming soon. The Qingmu Forest is the border of Nandian. The terrain is intricate and changes every step. Ordinary people can’t go out. The miasma is getting thicker and thicker. When I came in, I observed the wind in this direction. The other place is damper, it should be because of the river in front, the effect of this drug is long lasting, but you should hold on to the tree and walk slowly, it should be fine, later..."
Speaking of this, Qi Ran's breathing became heavier, another mouthful of blood gushed out, his throat seemed to be broken, and his words became hoarse, "Later you follow this place... along the river...there is a river There must be a culmination or a tributary...you are wise...you will find a way..."
After a few words, Qi Ran was already drenched in sweat after he finished speaking, the poisonous gas on the arrow should have spread, making his face pale and purple, and he grabbed Ji Si's arm with his fingers upward.
"This miasma is poisonous... Cover your mouth and nose with your clothes, it's good to be able to prevent it... The road below is up to you...Be careful in everything."
Ji Si lowered his eyes and did not make a sound, his eyes were red and sore, as if tears would burst out of his eyes when he opened his mouth.
"If Mr. Ji returns to Lin'an... it would be nice to bring something home for me."
"I don't," Ji Si said in a hoarse voice, and the crying in the voice made the words tremble, "I won't take it, you are not allowed to die, I am not allowed to die, if you die, I will kill you The son was killed, as you know, I have been displeased with him for a long time."
Hearing this, Qi Ran smiled and didn't take it seriously, he coughed a few times and said softly: "Master Ji... just now I lied to you... I didn't pass by Kashgar, I came here specially to find you .”
"I know."
How could he not know, how far it is from Lin'an to Kashgar, mountains and rivers, sky and earth, so far away that he can't remember the direction of Lin'an.
"You don't know... How long have I been looking for, but it's okay, it's okay..." Qi Ran shook his head, with a thousand words hidden in his eyes, and said with a smile: "Little prince, I was the one who found you first this time." ... Next time it's your turn to look for me, I have to hide away like you, I can't, I can't let you find me so quickly."
Ji Si paused, as if he hadn't heard this name for a long time. Many things flashed in his mind. He remembered that he could find Qi Ran no matter where he hid before. He remembered that this person asked again and again during this time. If I have something to say to him, remember everything related to Qi Ran.
After a while, he suddenly raised his head and met Qi Ran's gaze, tears flowed down the corners of his eyes, his lips moved, but he couldn't say a word, he just held Qi Ran's hands tightly.
My heart hurts so badly that I can't breathe, my whole body hurts like I'm dying, his Qi Ran, why didn't he speak out earlier.
The eyes of the two met, almost without a word, just a look, all the sadness and love were clearly displayed.
"Little prince..." Qi Ran panted with his mouth wide open, and gently wiped away the tears at the end of Ji Si's eyes with his fingers.
