late snow

Chapter 36 The Sword

Zhao Yue pointed the dagger at the man in front of him who couldn't see his true face, and said sharply, "Who are you!?"

"The person who came to save you." Ming Ye looked at his bluff and sneered, "It's a bit of a skill for you to provoke Hell Sea to send out the two guardians on the left and right to hunt down and kill you."

Zhao Yue looked at him suspiciously, "Why did you save me?"

Ming Ye thought for a while and said, "At my master's order."

"Who is your master?" Zhao Yue asked vigilantly.

"No comment." Ming Ye looked at the ice and snow outside the cave, and really didn't want to stay outside. Seeing that the man being hunted down in front of him could not pose a threat to him because of his powerlessness, he simply sat on the opposite side and raised his hand. Toast clothes by the fire, "You don't have to be so nervous, I mean no harm."

Zhao Yue didn't believe it, so he chose a seat far away from him and sat down, never putting down the knife in his hand.

Mingye couldn't tell which sect he was from his clothes, but he knew that the clothes and accessories were expensive. He poked the burning fire with his sword and said, "The people from Hell Sea have already left. , don’t worry, I’ll leave when the snow stops.”

Zhao Yue stared at him and thought for a moment, then cupped his hands at him and said: "This chivalrous man, if you can escort me to Shiyuan City, I will give you a generous gift."

Ming Ye raised his eyebrows and asked bluntly: "What a gift?"

Choking Zhao Yue: "..."

The sons and daughters of the rivers and lakes are really informal.

Ming Ye said: "I want gold, ten taels, give it to me."

Zhao Yue thought he wanted the lion to open his mouth, but he only needed ten taels of gold, so he nodded and said, "Of course, I will never break my promise."

"If you dare to break your promise, I will kill you." Ming Ye sneered.

This place is only seven or eight miles away from Shiyuan City, and it will not take half a day to send him there after the snow stops. This deal is very profitable for Mingye.

Zhao Yue intuitively felt that this was not a good person, but it was better to stabilize him first, and said with a dry smile: "That's natural."

At the same time, Nan Yu, who had lost Zhan Hua and Ji Huai in the melee, was wearing the clothes of the group of Wulin League killers, mixed in, changed his voice, and sat with a group of people to warm up with the fire.

This is just a simple shed, which can barely cover the wind and snow. This group of people are all masked, and they can't see each other's faces clearly. Nan Yu sat quietly by the fire and listened to their conversation.

"It's snowing so heavily outside, and the boss wants to go into the woods to arrest people, it's really desperate." Someone said impatiently because he couldn't stand the cold.

"If the boss doesn't go in and arrest people, we will lose our heads when we go back." Someone scolded him in a low voice.

"I just said it casually." The man muttered, "This is a world of ice and snow, and he ran all the way to the northwest to kill a kid—"

"Shut up! Don't you think we didn't die fast enough!" Soon someone stopped him.

The man snorted unconvinced, and hid himself in a corner to keep warm.

Seeing this, Nanyu brought a bowl of hot porridge to him, and said in a thick and honest male voice: "Brother, be careful."

"I'm not the one complaining, we have to carry out the order from above." The other party took a sip of the hot porridge, and immediately started chatting, "But I came all the way from the capital, and I don't know what to do... "

Nanyu's heart skipped a beat when she heard the word "Jingzhong", and followed his words: "Hey, brother is right."

"Really, when did we ever do such a boring job." The other party complained.

Nanyu echoed his words, and was about to say a few more words, when suddenly there was a mess ahead.

"Who!?" the leader yelled.

There were more than a dozen people on the other side riding horses, and they were the guardians of Hell Sea who had gone back and forth, and Nan Yu, who was hiding in the crowd, was sweating instantly.

"Brother, we are just passing by, the mountains are covered by heavy snow, and we want to borrow a place here to avoid the snow." Yu Zhang laughed.

The leader of the group pondered for a while, "It's okay, but remember to stay far away."

"Thank you, brother!" Yu Zhang waved his hand, and everyone in Hell Sea set up a tent not far from them and started a fire.

Nanyu was mixed in with the two groups of people, she didn't want to run or not, so she could only stand still for the time being and look for a suitable opportunity to run again.

-

The wind and snow were getting stronger outside, and Ji Huai felt that his body was about to lose consciousness, and Zhan Hua, who was being held by him, suddenly moved.

"What's wrong?" Ji Huai asked tremblingly.

"The heavy snow won't stop for a while." Zhan Hua said, "It's not an option to go on like this. I'll go out and find a way."

"You don't want to die!" Ji Huai grabbed him, "Not to mention that there are still soldiers chasing outside, such a heavy snow, no matter how good your martial arts is, you can't handle it."

Zhan Hua said: "It will be fine."

"Then let's go together." Ji Huai said: "At least the two of you have someone to take care of you."

Zhan Hua was silent for a while, "Forget it."

Ji Huai knew that he must be taking him as a burden rather than a care, but at least he dispelled Zhan Hua's dangerous idea.

The snow fell for a whole day and night, and Ji Huai couldn't remember when he fell asleep. When he woke up, his eyes were glaring with white light.

Zhan Hua stretched out a cold hand to him outside the tree hole, "The snow has stopped, Shiyuan City is nearby, let's go there now."

Ji Huai grabbed his hand, his legs were completely numb, his knees softened and he almost knelt in the snow, but Zhan Hua grabbed his waist and helped him up.

"Thank you." Ji Huai coughed, and the two of them walked deep into the forest with each other supporting each other.

The next day.

Shiyuan City.

Wrapped in a long-haired cloak, Ji Huai walked behind Zhan Hua among the bustling crowd, his whole body was groggy, his head looked like it was about to explode, and there was a gloomy chill all over his body.

Zhan Hua turned around and said to him, "Let's go ahead and find an inn to rest."

Ji Huai nodded in a daze, but didn't stop on his feet, and bumped into Zhan Hua's arms in a daze.

Zhan Hua laughed, and reached out to hug him, "Ji Huai?"

Ji Huai felt very uncomfortable, and now he couldn't think of any plots, tricks or ulterior motives, and he couldn't think of the bet with Zhan Hua. Besides, he was not a strong-willed person, and he refused to grab Zhan Hua's sleeve. let go.

"I have a headache." Ji Huai frowned and said, "My body hurts too, my whole body hurts, and my bones are still cold."

Zhan Hua said helplessly: "This is the aftereffect of taking the pill. Although it can save lives, it will be uncomfortable for several days. It will be better if you soak in cold water, but your body is too weak, it is better to endure it than to soak in cold water."

Ji Huai asked: "How do you know so clearly?"

"This pill is used to suppress the poison in my body. I have to take one every ten days, so I know." Zhan Hua supported him, turned around and went into the nearest inn, and asked for a room.

Before, he only thought that this pill could save lives, but he forgot the pain after taking it. He has already gotten used to it, but Ji Huai has always been precious, and in his eyes, the little injury and ailment in Ji Huai's body, the young master would have to toss Go Half-Life.

Naturally, he couldn't stand the pain.

It's just that there is no good way for this sequelae except to endure it. Zhan Hua looked at Ji Huai on the bed with his eyes closed and frowning, tossing and turning and refusing to stop, and even himself became irritable.

It's not as clean as his own suffering.

Zhan Hua felt a little irritable, but he couldn't help Ji Huai. If he was pressed on the acupoints and couldn't move and talk, he was pure, and Ji Huai would probably explode.

After thinking for a while, Zhan Hua reached out to pick up the person who was tossing and turning on the bed and hugged him into his arms.

Ji Huai was so uncomfortable that his temper became a little irritable, and he frowned and asked, "Do you have to eat once every ten days?"

"En." Zhan Hua responded and leaned against the head of the bed.

Ji Huai curled up into a ball and leaned against him, Wen Yan grabbed his hand, "Is it so uncomfortable every time?"

"It's okay." Zhan Hua seemed unwilling to talk too much.

However, from his reaction, Ji Huai knew that it would definitely not be easy.

If you eat it once a week, you will feel uncomfortable for several days at a time, and if you eat it three times a month, even a good-tempered person will go crazy.

However, Zhan Hua kept his expressionless face most of the time. If Ji Huai hadn't experienced it himself, he wouldn't have believed it anyway.

Ji Huai felt uncomfortable, several people sat down in Da Ma Jin Dao downstairs, Xiao Er cautiously moved up, but was caught by that person.

I saw the other party took out a portrait and put it in front of Xiao Er, pointing to the young master with clear eyebrows and eyes in the painting and asked him: "Have you seen this man?"

"No, no..." Xiao Er was so frightened that his legs were shaking, he didn't dare to look at the portrait carefully.

"Look carefully! If you lie, watch your head!" The other party pressed his head and forced him to look at the portrait.

Xiao Er was so frightened that he was about to pee his pants, but who knew that he looked familiar, "Master... I, I have seen it before!"

The dozen or so people who were sitting down and preparing to eat all stood up immediately, "Where are they?"

Xiao Er shivered and pointed upstairs, "Tianzi No. [-] and Room No. [-] on the second floor!"

The leader and his subordinates looked at each other, and even though they raised their knives and went upstairs, they were the pursuers who had chased them from the dense forest.

Little Er's legs softened, and he sat down on the ground, and was dragged aside by the accountant who ran over.

Upstairs, Ji Huai finally felt better, but Zhan Hua suddenly covered his mouth.

"Shut up, someone is coming."

Ji Huai nodded, Zhan Hua pulled him up, and kicked the table to the door. At the same time, there was a loud noise outside the door, and the long knife had already been cut in half from the window.

"Let's go." Zhan Hua grabbed his waist, kicked open the window and flew down the stairs, causing passers-by to give way.

In front of the upstairs window, someone was already drawing a bow to shoot an arrow, and the crowd suddenly panicked.

"This way." Zhan Hua dragged him to the side of the street, followed closely by those who jumped down from upstairs.

Seeing that he was about to be overtaken by the opponent, Zhan Hua dragged him into the criss-crossed alleys. After making several turns, the wooden door beside the alley was suddenly opened, and someone poked his head out and said:

"come on in!"

Zhan Hua immediately dragged Ji Huai into the door.

The door was shut with a bang, and the pursuers outside the door hurried past, and the sound of their footsteps faded away.

Ji Huai leaned against the door panel with all his strength, but before he could catch his breath, countless swords gleaming with cold light were aimed at the two of them.
