Strange Tale of Qingluan

Sun Qingming glanced at the cuff of his left hand, and saw a tattoo-like grain poisoning symptom that was about to spread to his wrist, the corners of his lips could not help but raised up, revealing a chilly smile, his true temperament was completely absent at this moment. Revealed with reservations.

Su Zhongming gritted his teeth slightly, and shouted again, "Why are you laughing!" Tiansun Qingming waved his whole body at him, his eyes were quick and his movements were quick, he let go and jumped away, heeling the ground, Tiansun Qingming raised Qiu Xuejian for the second time and stabbed at him, and shot Suddenly, Tiansun Qingming opened his mouth: "Follow me to Mufeng Society, the young head is thinking of you!"

Hearing this, Su Zhongming was stunned, "You...! Which side are you on? Are you from Xiyutai or from Mufengshe? Who is it for!" The sharp blade stabbed mercilessly, and in his impatience, In order to save his life, he held the sharp blade with one hand, and the fresh snow flowed out from his palm and dripped to the ground, staining Baishuang red.

That day Sun Qingming laughed loudly, and the laughter echoed throughout the small bamboo forest, and then he took out from his arms a cute white mask with two small red circles on its cheeks, and on the forehead of the mask was written with black paint like The word 'Feng' in cirrus clouds.

"This thing!?" When Su Zhongming saw it, the scene of Ding Xuehou Li Xuan being stabbed on the suspension bridge suddenly appeared in front of Su Zhongming's eyes, and he even clearly remembered...it was stabbed by the person wearing this mask.He gritted his teeth, with hatred squeezed between his teeth, "That day, you were the one who stabbed Li Xuan several times and forced him to a dead end?!"

Tiansun Qingming put the mask back into his clothes, and confessed everything, "Yes, it is indeed me who did it," he said, and suddenly said, "But I am not the one who wants to kill him."

"Nonsense!" Su Zhongming withdrew his sword abruptly. Regardless of the pain in his palm and the fresh snow flowing, he stabbed Tiansun Qingming with the hilt. At this moment, in his eyes, the hatred in his heart was far greater than the pain in his palm. .

Tiansun Qingming stood upright without avoiding it, and continued calmly: "50 taels, do you know what it is?" But to his surprise, Su Zhongming didn't stop because of his doubts, but swung his sword at him instead, He sternly said to him: "Nonsense, take it to the underworld and talk to Li Xuan!"

Only then did Sun Qingming dodge in a hurry, and after taking two or three steps back, he crossed his arms in front of his chest, and answered by himself: "That's the cheapest money for life." Suddenly startled, "Money for life?"

"There was a foolish boy who gave me all his savings of more than ten years, saying it was money for his life, and asked me to take the mission of Shaduwen to become the Marquis of Xue in that night's mission." With a cold smile, "What is this person doing this for, I don't know, I only recognize the silver he put in front of me."

In an instant, a man's name appeared in Su Zhongming's mind, but he was afraid that it was a trap set by Tiansun Qingming, so he gritted his teeth and said, "What does this have to do with me! Do you want to shirk your responsibility as a sandman?" Huh? Don't think about it!"

Tiansun Qingming snorted, and said: "You really don't want to know who bought Dingxuehou's life? That would be a pity." Su Zhongming was very impulsive, and recklessly swung his sword at him, "Stop talking nonsense! I'm not going to be fooled by you!" Tiansun Qingming laughed, and easily dodged every sword.

"Master Zi, you are so pitiful! No, it should be said that you are lucky. The city lord of Qingluan City can't see your little conspiracy, hahaha!" Tiansun Qingming talked to himself, and even laughed arrogantly.

Su Zhongming pointed at him with a sharp blade and questioned him, "You mean... who is the person who gave you 50 taels and told you to go to Sha Lixuan?" Sun Qingming smiled and nodded, "Yes, yes, City Lord Su is indeed enlightened."

When the guessing in his mind was not nothing but the truth, Su Zhongming was stunned for a moment, and blurted out: "Impossible! Why does he want to make love to Li Xuan? There is no hatred between them at all! Even if it is jealousy, it is not... ..." Just as he was halfway through speaking, he suddenly froze, and something seemed to come to his mind, "Jealous? Could this be...?"

Tiansun Qingming didn't wait for him to finish his words, seized the opportunity of his loss of consciousness, took out the folding fan, opened it, and fanned him, the breeze blew on his face, he could only smell an elegant fragrance, different After a while, Su Ruan was all over her body suddenly, and even Wo Qiuxue's sword strength was gone, and she collapsed on the ground, and the sword in her hand fell to the ground immediately.

When the goal was achieved, Tiansun Qingming folded up his fan, put it back at his waist, and snorted, "You don't have to drink a toast! You have to follow me obediently if you don't want to go to Mufeng Club!" After saying that, he bent down and prepared To take him away, suddenly, a silver figure flashed out from the bamboo forest, he turned his head, startled.

"Who?!" Tiansun Qingming blurted out in a panic, and drew out his saber to head towards the figure.Su Zhongming recognized the figure at a glance, and shouted, "Alin, run!" As soon as the voice fell, Tiansun Qingming's sword had already pierced the figure, but he did not expect that no fresh snow flowed out at that moment, and the The sharp blade was like cutting a ray of light, and the silver-white figure burst open immediately, and disappeared with the wind.

Not Ah Lin? ——Su Zhongming was taken aback for a moment.Tiansun Qingming, who made the move, was also stunned, muttering to himself: "What's going on? The one who appeared just now...isn't it a human?" Su Zhongming looked at Tiansun Qingming's expression, and secretly smiled in his heart.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Sun Qingming rushed towards Su Zhongming in a panic, wanting to take him away immediately, but he was one step too late, he was still two steps away from Su Zhongming, when suddenly a sword light came from behind him, he turned his head and glanced, His eyes widened, and he hurriedly drew out his sword to block it.

Su Zhongming saw the face of the visitor clearly, couldn't help being pleasantly surprised, and yelled at the person, "Ah Qing?! You... are you back?" Yi Yeqing didn't have time to answer him, and fought the enemy in front of him exactly In full swing.Yan Ying arrived in time, she drew her sword and ran up, and together with Yi Yeqing, she dealt with Tiansun Qingming.

Ye Shuangshuang came running after Yan Ying, went straight to Su Zhongming's side, and helped him up.Wen Qian followed Ye Shuangshuang and ran to Su Zhongming. Seeing that Su Ruan was weak, she was furious, and blurted out, "You bastard! You actually got my brother's idea, let's see how I deal with you!" Then she wanted to draw her sword.

Yang Bin, who came after her, pulled her, "It's too dangerous! Don't go! Just take care of people here." Wen Qian put down her right hand holding the sword hilt, turned around, and hurriedly asked Su Zhongming, "Brother Zhongming, what are you doing?" Are you okay? Where is there no book clothes?"

Su Zhongming replied, "I'm fine, but I don't know why. I was so weak when I smelled a scent just now, and now I can't even hold a sword." After saying that, the three of them looked at the three who were fighting in unison.

Tiansun Qingming is one of the masters no matter in Xiyutai or Mufengshe, but the people who joined forces to attack him are not ordinary people. Instead of retreating, there is a tendency to combine two swords for a long time Afterwards, Tiansun Qingming realized that this was a waste of time and energy, so he simply resorted to a dirty trick and pulled out the folding fan at his waist.

Just as he was busy opening the folding fan, the fan suddenly flew away with a whoosh, and flew to Gong He who was standing on a high bamboo branch.Gong He looked down at him, his eyes were full of sternness, and he said, "Using such despicable means, are you considered a respected martial artist?" Then he raised his hand, facing the folding fan in the air, and the flames flickered for a moment Lit up and burned that fan to ashes.

Tiansun Qingming gritted his teeth and glared at Gong He above, then raised his sharp blade and threw it straight up. Seeing this, Gong He closed his eyes and muttered something, and in the blink of an eye, the person disappeared, and the sword thrown into the air flew into the air. It fell vertically again, with the tip of the sword facing down, and plunged into the ground.

Tiansun Qingming ran over at the fastest speed, pulled the sword out of the ground, and then turned and ran away. He was not afraid of fighting, but he was afraid that if he continued to fight, he would attract the two seniors of the Murong family.

Seeing him running away, Yan Ying was about to chase after her, but Yi Yeqing grabbed one of her shoulders and stopped her: "Don't go, let him go, as long as the Lord is safe and well." Yan Ying put the sharp knife back into its sheath , listened to his dissuasion, did not catch up.

Tiansun Qingming hadn't run far, when the masked man appeared in the small bamboo grove again, he swung his sword and slashed at him, Tiansun Qingming was very surprised, he raised his sharp blade to block it, but the masked man still didn't give up, he swung his sword back Then he swung his sword at him again, Tiansun Qingming managed to avoid the sharp blade, looking very embarrassed.

"Who are you? Why do you always come to trouble me!" Tiansun Qingming couldn't bear it anymore, and blurted out to ask for clarification.When the masked man heard this, he laughed, "It's true that nobles forget things too much. You must not remember those souls who died under your sword!"

The sharp edge struck through the air, split the bamboo, and stabbed at Tiansun Qingming. The continuous quick moves made Tiansun Qingming overwhelmed, and he was anxious to leave, so he seemed flustered when fighting him.He yelled at the masked man: "I don't want to fight with you, if you want to fight with me, you can come to Xiyutai to find me in the future!"

The masked man didn't back down at all, and said, "But I'm going to kill you today!" After saying that, he raised his sword and stabbed Sun Qingming again. That day, Sun Qingming gritted his teeth and tried his best to escape from his rectification. .The masked man calmed down, and when confronting him with his sword, he suddenly split the sword into two, and pierced Tiansun Qingming's murderous hall with the second split sword.

Tiansun Qingming was shocked, I stayed at the wound and backed away slowly, the masked man didn't give him a chance to escape, so he used the first sword to stab his back again.Tiansun Qingming grabbed the sharp blade pierced into the murderous mouth, looked down at the blood-red sharp blade on the back, and said with the last breath, "It's a long... Changwu sword... how do you have the long sword of Penglai Xuanjun..." Unfinished, head tilted, dead.

The masked man pulled the sword from his body, wiped the snow with his clothes, and put the two swords together again, retracting them into their sheaths.Su Zhongming and others arrived, but only in time to hear Tiansun Qingming's last sentence, just when the masked man turned to leave, Su Zhongming ordered the people around him, "Ah Qing, Yan Ying, don't let him go! "

Yi Yeqing and Yan Ying immediately drew their swords and stopped the masked man before he left, "Don't leave! Otherwise, don't blame us for being rude." The masked man stopped and blurted out: "What do you want to do?" Su Zhongming stepped forward and replied, "I just have two things I want to ask your Excellency, and I hope you will appreciate it."

The masked man was silent for a while, then opened his lips and said ruthlessly: "I'm not interested in answering your questions!" Then he continued walking.Without Su Zhongming's Gesha order, Yi Yeqing and Yan Ying could only retreat step by step, not knowing what to do.Su Zhongming hurriedly blurted out to the masked man, "Your Excellency! Your sword belongs to Xuanjun Penglai, so you must know the way to Xuanxiu Valley. Can you tell me how to get to this place!"

The masked man was stunned for a moment, and asked puzzledly, "What are you doing asking about this place?" Su Zhongming said truthfully, "I have a strange poison in my body. I heard that only the first owner of Xuanxiu Valley can unravel it. My time has passed." Not much more." When the masked man heard this, he was stunned, "You have been poisoned?! When did that happen?"

"Last summer." Su Zhongming said truthfully.The masked man lowered his head and couldn't help muttering, "It's been so long..." Su Zhongming continued, "If you don't get rid of this poison, the consequences will be unimaginable when the poison occurs, so please tell me, Xuanxiu Valley is here. Where?"

The masked man was still very ruthless, "Even if you are very pitiful, I can't tell you the way!" He added, "If there is nothing else, then there will be no end!" Su Zhongming called him again, "Wait! Then he took out a jade ring and asked again, "This jade ring engraved with Yunlong, please enlighten me."

Hearing this, the masked man hurriedly wiped his fingers, and then suddenly turned his head, "When did you..." Su Zhongming asked him, "This ring is unique in the world. A pair, can you tell me honestly where you got it from?"

The masked man was silent for a moment before answering, "Is there a problem? I took it from the dead man." Su Zhongming was taken aback, unable to calm down, and quickly asked, "Where did you meet that corpse? "The masked man immediately got angry, "Is it annoying? If you want to find it so much, go to the sea to find it yourself!" Immediately strode forward.

Yi Yeqing and Yan Ying saw him approaching angrily, and shouted: "If you dare to take a step forward, we will..." Before they finished speaking, they only heard Su Zhongming say, "Let him go!" At the same time, they were stunned, Immediately, he put down the sharp blade in his hand and backed away.

"Let him go, even if you stop him... there is no way to pick up the bones of my lifelong partner and bury them..." Su Zhongming murmured, looking down at the jade ring in his right palm, and then it tightened again. Sighing sadly, he looked up at the sky above his head, with tears in his eyes.

The masked man secretly clenched his fists, stepped forward resolutely, without looking back.Yi Yeqing looked back at him, then walked to Tiansun Qingming's body, found a small medicine bottle from his body, walked to Su Zhongming's side, pulled out the stopper, and suddenly came out of the bottle Wisps of white smoke.

When Su Zhongming smelled it, he couldn't smell anything, but surprisingly, the strength in his body was released all at once.He moved his shoulders and put Qiu Xuejian Ba ​​Chulai back into its sheath, just to test the effect.

"My lord, we have to go back quickly, we can't wait there." Yi Yeqing looked at the sky and suddenly urged.Su Zhongming was puzzled, and turned his head to reply, "Why can't you wait?" Yi Yeqing replied, "When I came here, I brought someone with me along the way."

"Who is it?" Su Zhongming became more and more confused.Yi Yeqing pretended to be closed, and only replied: "My lord will know when he sees it." Su Zhongming put away the jade ring, turned around, and went back the same way with them, heading for the flower hall of the villa.

At the same time, the masked man was running in the quiet forest of Yangui Island, screaming and blaming himself while running, "Why did you lie to him! Why did you lie to him! Why!" He stopped abruptly, Wo tightened his head and turned to the sky Shouted, "Ah—" After shouting, he stretched out his hand, and when he reached a tree, he raised his fist on the trunk, "I'm blind... I'm not qualified to protect him anymore, I'm not qualified to follow him He is together, I am blind..."

His back, in the small forest, looked so lonely and sad, no matter how much he talked to himself, he still couldn’t get a response, there were only trees and withered grass all around, the birds had already gone to warm places to spend the winter, and those around him also There is only silence.The cold wind was blowing and blowing against him, but he was just dejected, not afraid of the cold wind or snow attack at all.
