Waiting for the wind and rain, the city of clouds is light

The red flame scorched a corner of the sky, like a beast gnawing its prey.The patrolling soldiers glanced at the mountains dozens of miles away through the gap in the dense forest, and the red flames covered the remaining lights in the entire city.

One person exclaimed: "Then... that is the Confucian little sage village!"

"This..." Several people looked at each other, and they all looked at the head of the village not far away, who turned his head and gave them a sharp look: "I don't have a head, I forgot that there is an order from above, today's team in the suburbs, no matter what Half a step away from the southeast mountain area?"

The young soldiers had no choice but to bow their heads, but the head of the village began to ponder in his heart.I don't know what those gentlemen above are thinking, the ceremony was interrupted just now, and now the army is not allowed to go down the mountain for reinforcements, as if... just like this Songhai City, soldiers like them cannot enter.

He was quite surprised, what is the majestic Qin iron cavalry that cannot be stepped on?

The head of the village was walking while thinking, and walked into the woods without knowing it. From the corner of his eye, he suddenly caught a glimpse of a group of dark shadows down the mountain approaching Sanghai City along the path in the forest.The head of the village was puzzled, and just wanted to see which group of soldiers did not know what to do, but felt that there was a knife-like gaze stabbing at him in that group.

The head of the village turned around and hid behind the tree trunk, cold sweat dripped down his spine.He ran out of the forest as if fleeing, and his intuition told him that the gaze was a warning, warning him not to see something he shouldn't see.

The gate of Xiaoshengxian Village.

The vermilion lacquer was burned until a corner peeled off, and there was a crackling sound, but the two groups of people with their backs to the door and those facing the door were silent.

On the side of the Confucian scholars, most of the students who can still hold on now are the senior disciples who have stayed in the village for some years. The wooden swords in their hands have long been replaced by the deadly sabers. The blades of more than 20 long swords are common With a cold light, but not half as majestic as Tai Ah who was in front of him.Fu Nian stood tall, his body was as stable as a mountain, Tai'a had already unsheathed, but his stern face was as usual.

"My lord priest, this overnight visit, why don't you say hello to Fu Nian first, and let everyone in Little Shengxian Village get ready and wait for your arrival?"

The other party just lowered his head and fiddled with his fingers, smiling politely and even a little politely, but his eyes covered by half-drooped eyelids were cold and gloomy.Hundreds of black-shirted warriors stood behind him, the long knives in the scabbards concealed the killing intent gushing out at any time.

"The head of Fu is the master, and Xun Wang is the guest. The guests should follow the Confucian etiquette and inform them before visiting, but there are priorities." Xun Wang raised his eyes, put his right hand behind his back, and said in a cool voice With a trace of laziness, "Since I have caused trouble for the head of Fu, let's just say the purpose of this trip, so as not to bother you for too long. I came here only to ask for a people."

"Oh?" Fu Nian said, but there was no look of doubt on his face, "The little sages are all Confucian disciples, Fu Nian's eyesight is clumsy, so he doesn't know which disciple the priest is talking about?"

"Master Fu, please don't joke with me," Xun Wang shook his head, his face was distorted and strange in the light of the fire inside the wall, "This person is not a Confucian disciple," the words paused, "but hiding Rebellion against the empire in Xiaoshengxianzhuang."

As soon as the words fell, more than twenty Confucian disciples looked at each other in shock, but they didn't know what they meant.Fu Nian's expression did not change: "Forgive Fu Nian for being dull, I don't know what the priest means. There is no one else in the little sage village except the master and the disciples who are studying."

"Master Fu didn't know?" Xun Wang pretended to be surprised, "If so, then I don't need to bother Master Fu, I just go to the village and find this person myself."

As soon as these words came out, the already tense situation in front of the gate was ignited, and the disciples were frightened and angry, and the hostility emanating from the sword in their hands converged into a murderous intent under the night sky.Although the man in black behind Xun Wang didn't move, the long knives came to life at this moment, like a beast opening its eyes, suddenly showing murderous intent.

"My lord priest, the Little Sage Village is no bigger than Sanghai City. If you are not a disciple of the village, you are not allowed to enter it at will." Fu Nian's tone did not fluctuate, but there was a faint gleam of light from the Tai'a sword beside him.

"Oh?" Xun Wang raised his eyebrows, and teasing flashed across his long and narrow eyes.He looked at Fu Nian with a smile, his voice lowered, as if he was hiding a knife blade: "Master Fu thinks there is something wrong with my entry into the village, so you don't welcome me as a guest?"

Fu Nian's eyes froze, the aura in his body had already begun to circulate, and at this moment, the sound of footsteps came from the woods on one side.

"Master Fu and the priest are both very busy people. It seems that there is no need to waste time for an unknown person." The cold female voice came out from the shadows of the trees.The eyes of the two people turned away, and after a while, a figure came out of it.

"Master Priest, here is the person you are looking for." Yun smiled coldly.

The Six Arts Hall is now a mess compared to usual.The cushions used to practice swordsmanship were spread out in disorder, and wounded disciples were lying on them.Yan Lu shuttled through the chaos alone, with the same expression on his face as usual, his light blue sleeves were tied up, and his clothes fluttered as he walked, like a fairy out of dust.Just now he treated the injury on the leg of a young disciple, Yan Lu wrapped up the wound, stood up and wanted to receive the Qingshui from the disciple outside the door, but found a person standing outside the door at some time.

Yan Lu realized what had happened, ordered a few senior disciples around him, and walked out the door.

Zhang Liang didn't seem to hear him coming, he just stared at the plaque in a daze.From the corner of his eyes, Yan Lu caught a glimpse of the somewhat flustered figures of the disciples in the hall, he stopped asking, and just stood beside him silently.

The heart seemed to be pierced by thousands of sharp knives, Zhang Liang fixedly looked at the point that did not exist in reality, the three characters "Six Art Museum" blurred into three clouds of mist, and below was the orange light.The figures coming and going swayed in this cloud of light and mist, but what came from their hearts was the pain of being crushed and squeezed to pieces.

Seeing this, Yan Lu sighed softly, and said: "Zifang, if there is a difficulty, everyone in Xiaoshengxianzhuang should bear it together."

"It was so before, and it is so now."

Zhang Liang's eyes visibly trembled.

The atmosphere in front of the gate of Xiaoshengxian Village seemed to be frozen.

Xun Wang looked at Yun Wei's face for a long time, and there was always a faint playful smile on his face.Some Confucian disciples recognized her, and burst into a suppressed exclamation: "She is not from that inn..."

The gloom in Fu Nian's eyes increased a little, his gaze swept over Yun Wei's blood-stained dress, and settled on Xun Wang who was opposite him.

Xun Wang finally smiled and broke the silence.

"Oh," he shook his head and looked at her again, with a hint of other meaning in his eyes, "You are really easy for me to find, He Yunwei."

"I don't dare, I just saw that my teacher was bound by someone, but she was accidentally injured by an adult when she approached," Yun Wei took the words, with faint accents on the last two words, "I was rescued by kind people, so I can see you here." It’s just that my lord’s action today is really not small, people who don’t know it may think that my lord has a grudge with Confucianism, and I am using the public to report my own interests.”

As soon as the words fell, the hearts of the dozens of people on the Confucian side sank immediately, and they squinted their eyes when they heard the words, and looked at the girl in front of them thoughtfully: "Yes, you are Aqiu's apprentice. You have to call me Master Uncle." He raised his feet and paced forward, facing her when he stopped, "But Aqiu is also a person with the surname Ying, if you call me Uncle, it is also suitable. She As your teacher, I think you will not disobey her wishes."

It was as if a bomb had been thrown into the crowd, and the small whispers were full of shock and hatred.Little Shengxianzhuang was coerced by others, and his disciples who had been with him day and night were injured, but this person stood here peacefully, unexpectedly he was from the same sect as the culprit and had a close relationship with him.The smile on Xun Wang's face became more obvious: "It's not what I want to work so hard today. It's just that others don't know that you are from Daqin. If you are taken away without saying a word, I'm afraid there will be a misunderstanding. You wander in the After rebelling for a long time, but he was able to retreat completely, Aqiu Ruoquan must be very pleased if he knows."

"You! Despicable villain!" A disciple drew out his sword with an angry clang, but was frightened by Fu Nian's glare and hurriedly took a step back and put down the long sword.The temperature instantly dropped to freezing point, and the murderous aura of the hundreds of long knives behind Xun Wang overflowed in an instant, making the disciples unable to restrain themselves and want to back away.There was no expression on Yun Wei's face: "Master and master retired, and they didn't intend to be involved in the affairs of the empire. If the master knew about it, she probably didn't want me to speculate on her thoughts without evidence."

Out of the corner of her eye, she glanced at the angry and gnashed eyes behind her, but was startled when she looked back, and there was a touch of familiar blue on the edge of her vision.

A disciple behind him exclaimed excitedly: "Third Master!"

She didn't look back.

"Your temperament really made me see the shadow of Cheng Feng." Xun Wang squinted his eyes, seeming to be dissatisfied with Yun Wei's soft knife, "After these years, I don't think his mouth is getting older and more poisonous. "

"Your Excellency is really self-effacing," Yun Wei answered, her tone fluctuating and dragging the end of the voice to listen to the laziness, but the words are clear, "I haven't learned anything about the teacher's mouth knife, how can it compare to the adult's black and white behavior?" The upside-down kung fu?"

Everyone present shuddered when they heard the words, but Xun Wang smiled instead of anger: "Aqiu has always had a unique vision, it seems that she and Cheng Feng have put a lot of thought into you."

"There is no way to repay the kindness of teaching." Yun smiled slightly, and then the smile faded from his face like melting ice and snow, and the words were casual and focused: "It's just that they failed their expectations and didn't want to teach them. It is such a useless disciple like me."

The words and sentences intersected like swords, lights and swords, and the Confucian disciples guarding the gate were already sweating.People seem to feel that the two people's words are calm and dark, but they can't guess the meaning.

The fiery red of the night sky outlined the outline of his chin. Xun Wang raised his head and looked at the sky. When he spoke again, his tone was filled with sadness: "Defecting the empire is a crime that should be punished. Just as her elder brother, But with selfish intentions, she hoped that her wish would be fulfilled."

Yun Wei remained silent, waiting for the other party to continue, but Xun Wang stopped at this moment, as if waiting for her to say something.For a moment, the words became silent, as if some subtle things gathered and dispersed.

"My lord has a good intention." Yun Wei finally spoke first, and there was a hint of an unclear smile in his voice.

"Although Ah Qiu is guilty, as a brother, he must miss his family." There seemed to be a sigh in Xun Wang's voice, and he stared at the sea.After a while, as if thinking of something, Xun Wang took a step forward, facing Yun Wei: "Ah Qiu values ​​you so much, I must also hope that one day, you will be under the teacher's sect. But although I miss the old love, The laws and regulations of the Great Qin Dynasty are very strict, and the crime of implicating others is not a child's play."

"Is this why your lord came to look for me?" Yun Wei asked lightly, "I don't know if your lord prefers to rectify the Fa on the spot, or if you prefer to send me back to the prison for another payment?"

"Yun Wei really likes to joke." Xun Wang didn't answer, and then said quietly: "Since you already know, why bother to ask me?"

Yun Wei remained silent, and turned his head slightly to avoid looking at him.Seeing this, Xun Wang didn't take it seriously, walked away from her, and slowly approached the hundreds of black-clothed figures behind, and stopped after a few steps: "Sanghai Little Sage Village, harboring the imperial rebellion, privately learning swordsmanship, Killing and wounding the soldiers of the empire—”

Xun Wang turned his head for a while, saw the Confucian disciples with increasingly ugly faces, and opened his lips coldly: "—Wanted to be arrested and sent to prison!"

With a clang, hundreds of long knives were pulled out together!

Fu Nian held the sword by his side to block the crowd behind him. The majesty accumulated over the years as the head of the sect burst out completely at this moment. Unexpectedly, the murderous aura emanating from those hundreds of long knives was forced back a few feet.

Xun Wang still didn't look back, and seemed to let out a contemptuous chuckle in a trance, but Yun Wei's voice suddenly came from behind, and it seemed that she could still hear the expression on her face at this time: "Master Priest If you entrust me with this errand, aren't you afraid that Yun Wei won't be able to handle it?"

As soon as this remark came out, all the Confucian disciples present felt their hearts sink. I saw Xun Wang slowly turning around to look at the motionless girl, with a sneer smile on his face: "Yun Wei is very familiar with Confucian rebellion. , how difficult is it to capture him?"

The air seemed to freeze suddenly.
