Snow Chihiro

=====================

One year later, outside Xiangyang City.

A row of fine horses galloped by, dust was flying, the pedestrians stopped at the gate of the city, and one of them came out to check the notice and was ready to lead the horses into the city.This group of people was thick and strong, and their voices were not low when they spoke. The people who lined up at the city gate quickly gave way to them and carefully hid aside.

Fortunately, these people are not bullying men, and they strode into the city after talking and laughing.The leader was a burly man, pretending to arrange the command, then he grinned and asked about the fireworks alley with a smile. The younger man behind him had no choice but to say, "Qizheng, we have something important to do when we come out this time. It's better to go to the place of fireworks later, otherwise the matter will be delayed, and the manager and the flag leader will definitely punish me."

Xiong Juda waved his hand, "Even if He You used me to go shopping, why did I delay my work?" As soon as he finished his sentence, he himself remained silent, feeling much depressed, and shook his hand and sighed: "Forget it, come back." Let's go to the inn."

He was ordered to come out this time, not for the purpose of fighting, since Xue Qianxun was promoted to the head of internal affairs, the expansion of the Sun Moon God Sect has evolved into a new situation - Lian Heng.The one who will establish diplomatic relations this time is a big faction in Jiangling, Huguang, Jing □□.If we say that Jiangling is Jingzhou, it is an extremely important geographical location in both wartime and prosperous times.The Sun Moon God Sect wants to set foot in the south, starting from Jingzhou, with Shuchuan in the west and Suzhou and Hangzhou in the east, it might not be a good place.Of course, a reckless man like him is not suitable for negotiating and agreeing on cooperation. He is just a team that explored the way before. Xue Qianxun and Tong Baixiong are three days behind him, and they will go with Huihui in a few days.

If he doesn't go to the brothel, Xiong Ju will be lazy, sit down casually, order a few catties of good local wine, and invite his deputy Qin Gang to eat and drink together.

Before leaving, Xue Qianxun once ordered, "Old rules, inquire about the reputation of this Laoshizi faction. It doesn't matter whether it is good or bad, it mainly depends on whether it has faith and strength." On the surface, we still have to go through it, so as not to fall into the truth.Xiong Ju also knew a little bit, so he didn't pay much attention. He squinted his eyes and hummed a ditty, urging him from time to time: "Qin Gang, kill me, what are you talking about? Hurry up..." His voice stopped , a pair of bear eyes widened and looked outside, Qin Gang followed his gaze and looked over, but there were only bustling pedestrians. "Qizheng, what are you looking at?"

Xiong Ju didn't answer him, jumped up and overturned the table and chased him out. Qin Gang was even more confused after being splashed with wine. He was only sent as a deputy not long ago, how can he deal with this guy's jumping temper ?The person next to him hurriedly persuaded: "Brother Qin, don't be angry. Old Xiong has such a temperament. It's hard to see any coquettish girls." Went upstairs to change clothes.

"Mr. Xue, we will reach Xiangyang in another thirty miles." Tong Baixiong galloped beside Xue Qianxun, but fell a little behind.It is reasonable to say that he is an acting right envoy, no matter his position resume or martial arts experience, he is superior to the delicate woman in front of him, but he respects Xue Qianxun very much.

Striving to make the right envoy safe and sound, was promoted to the general manager in half a year, even the thirteen sects in the north and south, separated and brought down Xiang Wentian... Her methods were shocking and admirable. Tong Baixiong finally understood why Dongfang Li chose this woman, why he could... Feel free to leave.

She is ruthless, smart enough, and sensible enough to treat others as well as herself.

"Brother Tong, let's hurry up." Xue Qianxun looked at the sky and smiled enchantingly, "Brothers, are you tired?"

Of course not tired, which man would show weakness to such a beautiful and charming woman?Just before the gate of Xiangyang city was closed, the group of 36 people was able to enter the city, and the inn they stayed in was a "chain store" that is now well-known throughout the country: Youjian Inn.

Xue Qianxun lived in the upper room, but Xiong Ju, who sent her up without avoiding suspicion, stood at the door, hesitating and speechless.Xue Qianxun was a little tired after running around for days, but she didn't show it on her face, and poured two glasses of wine with a smile, "Brother Xiong, if you have nothing to do, you might as well sit down and have a drink."

Xiong Ju waved his hands again and again, "You Shi's wine is too dull, you are a rough man..." He choked the words back into his throat, peeking at Xue Qianxun's expression, seeing her peaceful smile unchanged, he couldn't find any traces , Fang carefully said: "Boss, today I...I seem to have met the right envoy today..."

Xue Qianxun's hands trembled suddenly, almost spilling the wine, before he said after a long time, "Tell me carefully."

Xiong Juying said, "Today, Qin Er and I were drinking downstairs, facing the door, and suddenly saw a man wearing a bamboo hat walking sideways. I saw that man looked very much like a right envoy, so I chased him." He paused Only then said in confusion: "It's just that he doesn't seem to know me, and he didn't respond when I called him. I stopped him in front of him and asked him to take off his bamboo hat, but he refused. I had no choice but to make a move, but my martial arts were invincible. It's just that I followed the right envoy It was also a few years ago that I was fairly familiar with his martial arts methods, although that man also used quickness to defeat the enemy, but his movements were strange, and he didn't have the awe-inspiring righteousness that the right envoy used to open and close."

If he really mastered the Sunflower Book, the number of martial arts will naturally be different, and it is normal for such insidious martial arts to be weird.Xue Qianxun felt her heart throbbing, and she suppressed herself, "Maybe they are similar." She told Xiong Ju and told herself.She never had too much hope for anything, just because the taste of hope being shattered was too bitter.

"But we need to investigate." She told Dongfang Liang and told herself.Xiong Ju led the order to retreat, Xue Qianxun also leaned lightly on the chair and let go of the wine glass in his hand. As soon as that hand was released, the wine glass that was not protected by true energy collapsed into several pieces, and the clear wine flowed to the The table was stained with light red.

Dongfang Liang got off the beam, threw a bottle of Jinchuang Yao, sat down in front of her, picked up another glass of wine, and drank it in one gulp.Xue Qianxun indifferently put the golden medicine aside, it was just a few shallow marks, no need to bother.She looked at Dongfang Liang with some doubts. In this year, Dongfang Liang acted as the medium of communication between her and Dongfang Xi. In fact, all the achievements in the Sun Moon God Sect cannot be done without the help of these two Dongfang Liang. The purpose of the three Very consistent, keep Dongfang Li's foundation in the Sun Moon God Sect and find him.But Dongfang Liang seldom showed up in normal times, most of them passed the sound transmission into the secret, not only for the sake of secrecy and safety, but also because he didn't want to see Xue Qianxun's eyes.

There is always only one background color in the depths of the eyes that are soft or flattering or angry or smiling, as quiet as stagnant water.

Maybe she used to be like this, but now she's just back to the original point.Dongfang Liang thought wildly, and said in a deep voice, "Xie'er wants to see you."

"Oh?" The corners of Xue Qianxun's mouth curled up, her fingers dipped restlessly into the wine on the table, and she licked her mouth, showing a coquettish attitude. "Stick what you want, don't dare to ask for it."

Embarrassed by her appearance, Dongfang Liang turned his eyes slightly, "Tomorrow you, at Xiangyang Wharf on the Han River, the four-color flag will be." After he finished speaking, he passed through the window, leaving Xue Qianxun's two slender fingers in pieces. Picking up the broken porcelain, staring blankly.

The sixth day of the sixth month of the lunar calendar is Tian Kuang Festival, and there is a more popular name among the folks, Washing Sun Festival.At this time, it is the hot summer, the weather is hot and humid, and everything is perishable, so many people have the habit of bathing and drying in the sun. However, in the southern provinces, it is also fun to go out to enjoy the lotus during this festival.Today's weather was just right, Xue Qianxun went out to the pier alone, just as a large group of tourists came back happily, some chic people sang loudly, some elegant people lowered their heads and complained to each other.Xue Qianxun dressed up as a man, waved a folding fan, and walked like a man, if you don't look carefully, you really look like a gentleman with a jade face.It is always difficult to go against the current, but fortunately, she was not in a hurry, and unhurriedly squeezed her way out of the crowd, and felt relieved until she was near the pier.

There are still a few passenger ships parked on the pier, but there are only two of them going out today, and there are still a few seats left. The boatman tried his best to shout, Xue Qianxun has been in Yangzhou for many years, and is no stranger to such scenes. But she still looked at it interestingly. She had already seen the position of the four-color flag just now, but she was not in a hurry to go there. Privately, by the way, check the other party's situation.

As she expected, when the boat was about to set off, a young man in a short jacket walked over. The two boatmen handed over small purses, which should not be too heavy, and the boatmen didn't show any signs of panic. Instead, he patted the young man on the shoulder and started talking and laughing with him.It seems to be not bad, she thought, and the information sent by Dongfang Xi is not a problem.She lazily shook off the fan, took another look at the crumbling sunset, and walked towards the boat with the four-color flag.

"Boater wait a moment!" A cold voice came, even though the boat was 20 meters away from the shore, there was no extra emotion.Xue Qianxun's heart skipped a beat, she turned around abruptly, and saw a black shadow shooting towards the passenger ship, she felt her breathing was stagnant, and subconsciously jumped up, the white shirt streaked across the air, facing on that shadow.

Boom.With a soft sound, the person flying like a dove fell heavily back to the ground. Xue Qianxun stepped back a few steps to slow down the impact, but saw that the black shadow seemed to have never been blocked, and it landed steadily on the boat. The wind was quite strong, blowing the gauze on the man's bamboo hat, revealing the scattered hair and fair neck, and the clear voice gradually dissipated in the wind: "Boater, boat money."

Seems like a woman?Xue Qianxun stared blankly, then suddenly raised her right hand which she touched just now, frowning as if tied in an inextricable knot.

"Who is it?" Dongfang Liang got off the boat before and happened to see this scene.That person's lightness kung fu was really good, maybe three points better than him, but he didn't intend to hurt others, otherwise Xue Qianxun wouldn't have just retreated to the riverside.

"I don't know." Xue Qianxun shook her head, put her hands back into her wide sleeves, and said with a smile: "It's okay, let's get on the boat."
