Immortal sword edge
Chapter 18 Dungeon
The shade is lush and the flowers are blooming.The clear stream flows quietly, extending to an unknown distance.The golden sun poured down, sparkling.The blue sky is cloudless, and occasionally a bird or two glides past.
Ye Gucheng, dressed in white Shengxue, stood by the stream with a calm expression, his straight back was like a sharp sword hanging from his waist.
He is waiting for someone!
Although he had been waiting for a long time, and the shadows of the trees on the ground had shifted their directions early in the morning, he was not impatient at all. His amber eyes were calm and calm, as if he could still stand for a long time.
He didn't have much feeling for that fiancée, and he didn't have much curiosity. He just wanted to know whether she was really a master of swordsmanship as Mr. Ling said, and whether he could become a bosom friend above the way of swordsmanship. The familiar name more or less brought him subtle waves.But what made him even more satisfied was that this trip not only allowed him to see the outside world and broaden his horizons, but also allowed him to receive unreserved guidance from Mr. Ling, and his swordsmanship became more refined. His admiration for Ling Xiao deepened, and he even envied his fiancée, Mr. Ling's only apprentice.
Along the way, they stopped and looked around, and they didn't rush on their way. Occasionally, they encountered questions about swordsmanship, and they could get the best answers immediately. He was very satisfied with such days. Leaving his father for the first time and leaving his familiar environment has left him behind.
But just yesterday, Ling Xiao received news from Fei Ge that his fiancée was missing.
Ling Xiao panicked and lost his usual composure. Although he himself was a little worried, he didn't have much emotional ups and downs. After all, you can't force him to be worried and angry because of a stranger he has never met, even if that person is him. His fiancée, he can't do it either.
It's just that the missing person is his fiancée after all, and he must find her because of emotion and reason, so when Ling Xiao proposed to send him back, he refused.
He didn't know how she disappeared or what happened. All he could do was stand here and wait quietly for Ling Xiao to come back.
The breeze blowing from the opposite side gently lifted his hair, and he stood with his sword in his hand, his straight figure was reflected in the stream, causing ripples.
Suddenly, there was a slight sound, and when he turned his head, he met a pair of emerald green eyes.
The tall white wolf was majestic and majestic, as towering as a mountain, just standing quietly, with a ferocious beast rushing towards his face.
A layer of cold sweat broke out on Ye Gucheng's back, and he held the hilt of the sword tightly with his right hand. The cold and hard touch made his palm ache, but he didn't notice it at all.
A man and a wolf confronted each other, and no one moved first. There was only the sound of quietly flowing water around, and the withered and yellow leaves were slowly falling down by the wind.
Swinging its big fluffy tail left and right, the white wolf suddenly moved. It moved its limbs and walked proudly past his eyes.
Ye Gucheng's eyes widened in surprise, and before he could breathe a sigh of relief, his white face suddenly changed, he took a step forward, and shouted in a clear voice, "Stop!"
This loud shout is too ridiculous, not to mention that the other party is just a wolf, unable to understand his words, take a step back and say, even if it understands his words, how can it stop as he said? Down.As soon as the words came out of his mouth, even Ye Gucheng felt a little ridiculous.
But at the next moment, this miraculous scene happened. The snow-white giant wolf stopped, staring at him with cold green eyes, and even the noble head tilted to the side humanly, as if Q: What's the matter?
Ye Gucheng blinked his eyes, put aside the random thoughts in his head, stepped forward again, and called out tentatively: "Axue?"
"Aww!" The white wolf howled upwards, its big fluffy tail swayed more violently, backed away anxiously and restlessly paved the ground.
Ye Gucheng realized it, it seemed that it was indeed the wolf that Mr. Ling said disappeared with his apprentice, also, how many tall giant wolves like it are there in this world that are all white and without the slightest variegation?What's more, it is so unreasonable to wander around towns instead of galloping in deep mountains and old forests, and there are even fewer people who are proficient in spirituality.
He slightly arched his back, leaned forward, and asked as calmly as possible: "Where is Axue? Where is she?"
"Woo!" The white wolf howled in a low voice. He didn't know if it was his illusion, but he always felt that there was a layer of human worry in that whimper.
The giant white wolf took two steps forward, then turned its head and whined at him.Ye Gucheng was a little surprised, did it ask him to go with it?
Just when he was in doubt, the giant wolf took a few steps forward again, then turned back and barked at him, its big fluffy tail seemed to shake impatiently.Ye Gucheng tentatively walked towards it, and the white wolf barked again, but this time the voice was obviously full of satisfaction.
Could it be that it wants to take itself to find its owner?Ye Gucheng's eyes lit up, and he couldn't care about anything else. He drew his sword and hurriedly carved a pattern representing the direction on the tree stump beside him. The signature was a white cloud, and then he jumped towards the white wolf who was walking away.
The rising sun is in the sky, and the golden light is brilliant.Suddenly, a slender figure appeared under the thick shade of trees. He had a gentle face, sly eyes, and an unknown smile on his lips.
Looking at the direction where the wolf and the other disappeared, the slender white hand covered the rough tree trunk, and all the imprints disappeared in the next moment.
As soon as Ximen Chuuxue opened his eyes, he saw an oil lamp emitting orange light, and there was a low sobbing sound in his ears, and the unpleasant smell in the air made him frowned fiercely.
He leaned against the cold wall and slowly sat up, looking around calmly, only then did he realize that the place he was in was a dark and damp dungeon.Three sides are walls made of boulders, and directly opposite him is a row of wooden fences, and a huge rusty iron lock locks him tightly in this small world.
There were three other children locked up with him, two of them shrugged their shoulders and let out small sobs, and the other curled up in a corner motionless, and it was unknown whether he was asleep or unconscious.
He moved his stiff body, stood up slowly, and then subconsciously touched his waist. After exploring for a while, his brows and eyes frowned even tighter.
Perhaps it was the small sound that disturbed the crying child. Two pairs of big red and swollen eyes looked at him at the same time, but it was only a glance, and soon the two buried their heads in their hearts.
There was sudden pain from the place where the back of the neck was beaten. He pursed his lips, lifted the corner of the skirt that was in the way, and walked towards the door of the dungeon under the dim light.
The gaps between the fences are very small, and the small ones can only accommodate things the size of an adult's arm, so even a small child cannot get out.
He looked out through the fence, and the rough wood was pressed against his small face, which was cold.With the help of torches shot from a distance, the situation not far away can be barely seen clearly.
He couldn't see the left and right sides, but the opposite side was a prison cell similar to the place he was in, roughly the same size and shape, and the left and right sides of it were also all cells of the same color. If you look closely, there are as many as five or six cells. .Some of them were shimmering with yellow light, while others were pitch black. With his eyesight, he could clearly see that there were not only children, but also a young woman with a dull face inside.
He withdrew his gaze, moved a few steps, his white and tender little hands touched the cold iron lock, and the iron chain hit each other, making a clanging sound.
"Do you want to escape?" A clear voice came suddenly.
Little Ximen was startled, he turned his head quickly, and saw that the child who had been curled up in the corner had stood up, maybe he should not be called a child, he was about twelve or thirteen years old, he was already a teenager, and he Unlike the others, a long chain was baked on his hand, which jingled with his movements.
"Do you want to escape?" The man repeated, under the light, the boy's immature eyebrows and eyes were particularly bright, and then he said: "If you can't escape, let's not say that you can't get out of this cell, even if you can get away with opening this door , There are still four people watching outside, and they will still be caught in the end."
Little Ximen raised his eyebrows, "Then he was chained?"
The young man shook the iron chain in his hand, and the sound of gold and iron rattled, and he laughed: "Then he was locked by the chain!"
The man moved his feet, walked slowly to Xiaoximen, and then leaned on the wooden pole behind him as if he was tired. He tilted his head, his face facing the light was very clear, "My name is Ao Lianmin, your name is what name?"
"Ximen Chuixue."
"Ximen Chuuxue?!" Ao Lianmin repeated, and then said with a smile: "You are not a simple child, just woke up to such a place, instead of crying or fussing, on the contrary, you are extremely calm, and you can even talk about it in detail." carefully observe the surrounding environment."
Xiao Ximen said calmly: "Then you are not simple? You can make the other party so afraid." As he said, he swept the long chain again.
Ao Lianmin smiled wryly: "It was my carelessness. In the end, not only did I fail to escape smoothly, but I overwhelmed the enemy, and my success fell short!"
Hearing what he said, Xiao Ximen admired him a little bit. He was obviously not a few years older than him. After experiencing such a failure, he was neither crazy nor desperate, and even his tone was not overly intense, just a little helpless , this person's temperament is really optimistic.
However, he will not give up.Little Ximen glanced at the two people who had stopped crying and looked at them curiously, and said, "How long have you been arrested?"
Ao Lianmin shrugged, "Who knows? But judging from the number of times they delivered meals, it should have been five or six days." He said with some uncertainty.
"Then have you ever seen a boy named Xu Bao'er? He is a bit fat and wears blue clothes." Xiao Ximen's tone was a little anxious.
Ao Lianmin pointed to the outside, and said thoughtfully: "There are probably no less than 30 children in this entire dungeon. I don't know if there is anyone you want inside. Maybe you can call?"
"Shout?" Little Ximen's heart skipped a beat.
"But it's likely to alarm the guards outside!" Ao Lianmin smiled wickedly.
Little Ximen was silent, and the thought that had just arisen was completely dispelled. He lifted the hem of his skirt and walked back to the place where he was lying before without looking back, and sat down cross-legged.
Ao Lianmin leaned forward, "What? Are you angry?"
Little Simon remained silent.
"You little girl, you have such a temper. You were just joking." He sat down next to the child's shoulder.
Little Ximen looked at him calmly, his dark eyes actually made him a little guilty, Ao Lianmin shut his mouth embarrassingly, and never spoke again.
Silence was restored in the cell.
