Peach Blossom Dyeing Jinge

Chapter 169 Summer Grass Winter Insect

Di Dongqing saw everything clearly from a height.

He did not leave the altar, nor did he dive into the water to escape, but climbed to the highest point and hid on the top of the statue, so as to avoid Zhuo Yinglian's eyes and ears.

He lay motionless on the cold rock, and it took almost all of his will.The setting sun above his head was like blood, there were many mountains in the distance, beams of light poured down from the hollow, and the flying dust hurt his eyes.

For thousands of years, is this how the gods overlook the world?

Tianxing returned to the altar with an obvious look of annoyance on his face: "I didn't find Di Dongqing, he escaped too fast."

Zhuo Yinglian waved her hands and said, "Forget it, let him go."

Lu Zhengqiu listened to the words of the two with a look of relief on his face.The corners of his eyes turned an unnatural crimson red because of the poison, he opened and closed his eyes slightly, his eyes full of bewilderment.

Di Dongqing could clearly see every subtle change on his face, and those eyes might no longer be able to look at her with a smile, and no longer be able to reflect her own shadow.

Tian Xing's eyes swept over Lu Zhengqiu's face, and he asked puzzled, "What's wrong with him?"

Zhuo Yinglian said: "I blinded his eyes so as not to cause trouble."

"We're taking him away?"

"We're going to bring him back to Mr. Xia."

Tianxing was silent for a while, and said in an indifferent tone that lacked ups and downs: "Okay, let's go quickly, I don't like this place."

"Okay." Zhuo Yinglian nodded.

Tianxing walked a little, then remembered something, turned around and pulled Lu Zhengqiu's arm.

The latter was standing there in a daze, his arm was pulled violently, he staggered two steps, his toes were caught on a stone, and his body fell forward.

The sound of stiff bumps echoed among the sounds of water.

Lu Zhengqiu fell to the ground dejectedly, his clothes were torn sideways, and his hair was messily draped over his shoulders.

"Please...slow down..." He raised his head and begged in a low voice.

"Okay," Tian Xing said impatiently, pulling him up from the ground with rough movements, "I never thought that Lu Zhengqiu has become a useless person now."

Zhuo Yinglian let out a long sigh: "Tell me, if I knew this earlier, why bother?"

Lu Zhengqiu did not answer.

Under the pull of the young man, he tried every step, and slowly moved forward, with his hands gliding across the void from time to time, like a toddler, fragile and lonely.

His figure finally disappeared into the twilight.

Twilight has fallen, and night is approaching.

The night in the deep mountains is extremely barren, with no moon or stars, only layers of clouds piled up in the sky, like a moat that can never be crossed.

Di Dongqing knelt on the top of the statue, clenched her fists, bit her lips on the bleeding marks, and tried her best not to shed tears.

He waited in the boundless silence, until the sound of horseshoes finally disappeared into the distance, and the sparse stars emerged from the gaps in the clouds, casting pale light on his shoulders.

He will always remember the starlight of that night.

He rode his horse alone in the starlight, and galloped to the ends of the earth without looking back.

Two days later, Jiangyu City Gate.

The sound of triumphant hooves woke the city from its slumber, and early in the morning, the mighty team walked towards the city gate.

Bai Xiuchuan walked in the front, on the left was a group of government soldiers, all dressed in uniform, and on the right were Jianghu people from the Tianshui Gang, tall, short, fat, and thin.Under his leadership, the two teams with such disparities walked side by side, and the atmosphere was very harmonious.

This is the first time Bai Xiuchuan has been in command to lead the army. His hands are firmly holding the reins, his shoulders are straight, his eyes are straight, his expression seems a little nervous, and his eyes can't help drifting to his side: "Brother Dongqing, should we come back?" too early?"

Di Dongqing walked beside Bai Xiuchuan, with a much calmer expression, raised his finger and said, "Don't panic, look, the city gate has already opened."

Sure enough, the two heavy doors opened slowly, and the voices of bustling people drifted out.

Looking from a distance, there were crowds of people on both sides of the city gate. Although it was still early, the streets were crowded with common people who lined the road to greet each other, and it was very lively.Di Dongqing saw Liang Xiao's figure in the crowd and nodded to him.

Bai Xiuchuan also breathed a sigh of relief, because he saw Bai Yunfeng and Si Yutong appearing directly in front of his field of vision, waving at him.

The triumphant procession entered the city and stopped before the visitors.After exchanging pleasantries, Si Yutong looked into the team and asked, "Holly, where's your master?"

Di Dongqing was silent for a while, and said: "He is no longer my master."

Si Yutong was puzzled and asked, "What does this mean?"

Di Dongqing didn't answer right away, but got off her horse and knelt down on one knee in the middle of the road.

The team behind was in an uproar, and Bai Yunfeng was also taken aback, and hurried forward to help him: "My good brother, what are you doing?"

Originally, Di Dongqing rode alone in danger and saved the Wuxi people and Tianshui Gang before the Demon Sect. He made a lot of contributions, and the good news came back to the city a few days ago. Blame him for letting go of Nan Yanqi.

The people in Jiangyu City still look forward to their heroes.

However, the much-anticipated person kept his head down, faced the prince's surprised gaze, and said in a deep voice: "It was my fault alone to leak the news about Xi Rang to the Demon Cult, and I have no shirkable responsibility."

The people watching and the soldiers behind him all saw his movements clearly.

Si Yutong also came to him and asked, "What happened, how about telling the cause and effect?"

Di Dongqing nodded, and said word by word, "Nan Yanqi was let go by Lu Zhengqiu on purpose."

There was another commotion in the crowd, and Bai Xiuchuan also stepped forward and asked, "No, didn't Master Zhengqiu kill him later?"

Di Dongqing frowned and said, "It's a trick of playing hard to get, in order to win the trust of everyone, and then get the help of Wuxi people."

"Ah, so it's like this—" Bai Xiuchuan couldn't help looking at Du Yun behind him, who also gave him a shocked look.

Di Dongqing gave a brief account of how the two of them went to Wuxi Village to track down Xi Rang, and then said: "We finally found a clue. When we were about to turn back, we were besieged by the Demon Cult. It turned out that we had been followed along the way. So, I went through a lot of hard work before finally escaping, and master... Lu Zhengqiu has already abandoned me, and returned to the Devil's Cult with Xi Rang's information as a bargaining chip to claim credit."

After listening to his narration, and looking at each other, Bai Yunfeng sighed first, and said with emotion: "People who come from the Devil's Cult should never be trusted."

Bai Xiuchuan also comforted him: "Brother Dongqing, don't be too sad, the Bai family will always be your ally."

Si Yutong also patted him on the shoulder, and said, "Don't forget that you are the son of Hero Di, and there are many great things waiting for you in the future."

As soon as the words fell, the surrounding crowd also booed and shouted his name together, and the voice resounded over the city.

His eyes turned around in the crowd, finally nodded and said: "Thank you."

So far, the rescue operation of the Tianshui Gang has finally come to an end, and the result is almost complete. The long-lost good news makes Jiang Yu immersed in joy.

Di Dongqing had been busy all day in the medical center, and it wasn't until late afternoon that she finally managed to steal time to rest.

He stood by the window, looking at the brightly lit street market in the distance.

Ah Jin also stayed in the hospital. Her arm injury was no longer serious, so she made a cup of tea with her own hands and brought it to Di Dongqing.

A few days ago, what this person said resurfaced in her ears again, which made her feel a little timid.But she still made up her mind, went forward, and asked, "Brother Dongqing, are you very sad... If there is anything I can do for you, just tell me, and I will definitely help you."

Di Dongqing was slightly taken aback, and turned around.

To the girl's surprise, there was no sadness on his face, and he didn't even show fatigue. He just nodded and said, "So, can you do me a favor tonight?"

"Eh?" Ah Jin's cheeks were blushing, "What...what's the matter?"

Di Dongqing said: "Help me find out the real culprit."
