Chapter 443

The sunshine in spring is always gentle and warm.

However, after the baptism of successive storms and rains blowing from the north, the gentle and warm spring scenery in Jiangning County was mostly blown away by the rain and wind. Even when it was almost noon, it still looked bleak and desolate.

A man with full head of silver hair, tall and straight, wearing a black short-sleeved robe came rushing from the world, stepped into the chrysanthemum garden in the bleak and desolate spring, and walked into the Taoran Pavilion.

There was an old man in the pavilion as usual, but the old man was not as dignified as usual. He was wearing a big cloak over his single clothes to keep out the wind and cold, and he looked a little tired.

"Old man." The silver-haired man bowed slightly.

Unable to see the other person he was looking forward to seeing next to the visitor, a trace of worry flashed across the bloodshot eyes of the old man, and the loose and wrinkled eyelids blinked slightly, and the cloudy pupils became bright again.

The old man was always informal with his friends, seeing that the visitor had no intention of taking a seat, he got straight to the point and said, "Is Chen'er all right?"

The person who came was naturally Feng who had returned from Jiang Yichen's side.

Feng shook his head, he was always tense on the way home, and now because he didn't know how to connect with the old man's horizontal eyebrows, he clenched his fists and said in shame: "I don't know if I'm dead or alive."

The old man also shook his head.

Feng shook his head because he failed to bring Jiang Yichen back, or even bring back the exact situation about Jiang Yichen, while the old man shook his head because he was trying to persuade his friends not to blame the matter on others.

Five days ago, the Martial Arts Conference in Baihuayu, Pinghai County, started from the early morning and ended in chaos. For the first time in the past 20 years, the imperial court intervened in the disputes of the rivers and lakes, and tried to take advantage of the chaos to weaken the forces of the rivers and lakes. The majesty of the imperial court was revived, so the night sky was still very brightly illuminated by swords, lights and swords in the middle of the night.

The vitality of Zhongzhou Jianghu was seriously injured in the Hundred Flowers Conference. As a member of Zhongzhou Jianghu and the Daoyi League who participated in the conference as an invited party, it was natural that they could not escape the disaster. The old man and Han Wuyue who attended the conference in person were invited to the same day The famous Shaolin and Wudang sects collaborated with the people in Tingyu Pavilion to fight a bloody way before they escaped.

It was also yesterday afternoon that the old man returned to the Jiangning Chrysanthemum Garden.

Over the past few days, thousands of pairs of eyes have been paying attention to the situation in Pinghai County and the movements in the residences of several major gangs. The old man dare not relax even a bit. Regarding the news about Jiang Yichen, although the old man has never asked about it, he still has it in his heart. It's never less worrying.

He knew the child's temperament very well in his heart, and knew that the child would inevitably be emotional, and might make inappropriate choices at inappropriate times, especially after practicing the beneficial but somewhat demonic "Yin Feng Gong" ", the child's emotions became more difficult to control.

So he tried his best to arrange things that he could arrange properly, such as He Tingyuge and others retreated in time, and the scattered people lived in danger, and even entrusted Ruo Ruo, a strong man from the Yuluo tribe Take him away when there is a change, just to protect the child.

Unexpectedly, something went wrong.

The separation from the Nether Cult is still within the controllable range, but the appearance of Yin Li has really pushed the child to a place where the world cannot tolerate him. At least those present will not tolerate him easily, and I am afraid that he will have to pull his skin out Only then can he be allowed to live in the world.

Of course, the old man did not witness Yin Li's surprise attack on Jiang Yichen with his own eyes. What he was sure of was that after Yin Li's surprise attack, Jiang Yichen not only killed him but was still alive. He believed that he had been waiting for a certain message, which was the message from Feng.

But now, Feng failed to bring back such a definite message. The old man knew that it must be due to the child's own will, but he couldn't help feeling a little bitter in his heart and a little bitter in his mouth. Yin Yang Bridge?"

Feng said that Jiang Yichen didn't know whether he was dead or alive, and the only thing Feng could do nothing on Baihua Island was the Yin-Yang Bridge that could separate life and death.

"Yes." Feng thought for a moment, but decided to tell the whole story of the day so that the old man can make an accurate judgment, "The little thief surnamed Yin was well prepared to deal with Xiao Jiang, and his methods were very vicious. .”

"I heard that the poison that Yin Li prepared that day was the poison that sealed the throat with blood, but those poisons failed to kill Chen'er."

"indeed so."

"You Ming taught Wan Poison Tomb to have the effect of purifying the marrow and refining the body. If Chen'er hadn't told me personally, I would not have known that I would have to suffer so much before practicing the "Yin Feng Gong". Can withstand the baptism of thousands of poisons, how can Chen'er be easily poisoned."

"I see...but the little thief came prepared. Although the poison was not fatal, it took a great toll on Xiao Jiang, especially the blinding sand that the little thief left in his last hand, Xiao Jiang's eyes. It seems that there is no resistance to the poison."

"Blinding sand? Blinding sand... Hiss, that thing really still exists in the world."

"Xiao Jiang's eyes can still be saved?"

"Although it has been a long time, the medicine valley should still record the cure. According to you, when the court shoots down arrows, Chen'er should be powerless to save himself."

"I rescued him when the arrow rain fell, and I asked him if he wanted to come back to the Daoyi League or follow me to the north."

"He has his own choice?"

"Yes."

"Is it under the Yin Yang Bridge?"

"Yes."

"Why bother?"

"When I brought him to the bridge, he hadn't made a final decision. At that time, I thought I could persuade him, but who would have thought..."

"What happened!?"

"Those people chased after them. Xiao Jiang knew that those people only came for him and didn't want to drag me down, so he fell off the bridge."

"how many people?"

"13 people."

"Do you remember their faces?"

"No one is missing. On the way to Juyuan, I have confirmed their identities, and I have just handed over the list to Mr. Han."

"it is good."

At this point in the conversation, Feng already intended to leave, and solemnly made a fist-cup salute to the old man for the second time, and said, "I'll go find Xiao Jiang right now, or kill those 13 people."

The old man shook his head for the second time and said, "Wait a minute."

Feng said: "Old man, what else do you have to say?"

The old man said: "It's not a matter of time to find someone under the Yinyang Bridge. Patriarch Mu needs you more. You must not miss the important thing because of Chen'er alone. I will send more suitable people to confirm Chen'er's situation. If Chen'er's fate is over, you and I will avenge this revenge together, but if Chen'er is blessed with great fate, I think he is more willing to do it himself."

……

……

"To the west and north of the Kunlun territory, before reaching the Poison Zhu Kingdom, the terrain is as high as the clouds. It is more than a thousand miles from east to west, and more than a hundred miles from north to south. It is made up of lush green mountains, hence the name Congling.”

"The cold wind above the Congling Ridge is fierce, the snow is flying in spring and summer, the wind is blowing day and night, the ground is alkaline and brine, there are many gravels, the planting is not fruitful, the land is vast and sparsely populated, and people who do not live on it for generations are not suitable for living. Therefore, although It is an important throat, but neither Zhongzhou nor Duzhu has been able to completely divide Congling into its territory for a long time."

"There used to be two nomadic tribes living in Congling for generations. One was the Baili tribe, which was active in the east of Congling and had contacts with Zhongzhou. close."

"Given the size of Congling Ridge, the two tribes live at one end, so fire and water are not incompatible. However, the plateau has a million hectares, and there are hundreds of rivers in the sky. Every autumn and winter, it will be frozen three feet. Only the middle part is where there is no grass. One hundred acres of Dalongchi, the water is sweet and the fish are fat, and it does not freeze all year round."

"Water can be obtained by digging ice, but the water obtained in this way cannot satisfy people and animals to drink anytime and anywhere at the same time. If cattle and sheep are hard to live, people will be hard to live in the coming year. Therefore, the Baili and Nai tribes live in spring and summer. The east and west herd cattle and sheep, and in autumn and winter, they all go to the edge of the Dalong Pond to live by the water."

"When the number of people was still small, Dalongchi was enough to support the food and drink of the two tribes, cattle and sheep, and they lived in peace, but as the number of the two tribes increased day by day, Dalongchi gradually became more and more embarrassing. In order to compete for enough tribes to survive The food for survival in autumn and winter, the two tribes will finally face each other with swords."

"The autumn and winter battle between the two tribes had both winners and losers at the beginning. After suffering half a year of starvation, the loser side did not suffer from it. It always regained the ownership of Dalongchi for half a year with greater determination and momentum the next year. .”

"Hunger is not so easy to survive. Every time there is hunger, many people will inevitably die. The two tribes will always find ways to win, or reserve food in advance to prevent starvation after losing."

"The Baili tribe has excellent eyesight, is good at archery, and learns from the inland of Zhongzhou to make bows and arrows more exquisite. It is easy to pass through Yang in a hundred miles."

"The Nai tribe has a little knowledge of animal language, and is good at controlling beasts. They have learned a lot of beast-controlling thaumaturgy from Du Zhu, but it is difficult for them to advance even an inch in front of the arrows of the Baili tribe."

"The Baili tribe can always take the Dalongchi as their own for three to five years in a row, but if the Nai tribe doesn't prepare for war early in the late summer and autumn, I'm afraid it will be difficult to drink the water from the Dalongchi."

"Because of the lack of food, the Nai tribe has been declining year by year. Seeing that it will be difficult to defeat the Baili tribe in the long run, the Nai tribe finally asked the Du Zhu Kingdom for a way to defeat the Baili tribe in one fell swoop—Zangmusha."

"I heard that this blinding sand is a kind of poisonous Gu developed by a certain tribe in Duzhu Kingdom who is good at using Gu, targeting the director of the Baili tribe for several years. The Nai tribe paid a lot of money for this, and let this The tribe cultivated the poisonous Gu on their behalf before bringing it back to Congling."

"At the end of a certain summer, the Nai tribe dispatched dozens of people to hide around the Baili tribe's camp day and night. When the wind blows, it is convenient to release blinding sand upwind, so that it will float into the Baili tribe's camp with the wind and enter the early autumn. Afterwards, nearly half of the people of the Baili tribe suffered from vision loss, and many people were completely unable to see because their eyes were blackened, resulting in a disastrous defeat."

"The Baili tribe thought it was an accidental eye disease. After careful investigation, they found out that it was caused by the Nai tribe's Gu. They couldn't help being furious. That winter, relying on the manpower and material resources accumulated over the years, the Baili tribe returned to Dalong. Poolside, slaughter the Nai tribe at all costs!"

"So far, there are no Nai tribes in Congling, but the blinding sand disaster left by the Nai tribe is enough to seriously hurt the vitality of the Baili tribe."

"In order to cure the poison of blind eye sand, the Baili tribe went deep into Zhongzhou to seek medical treatment, but it was rare to find any results. It took five years to gather together several great doctors to successfully develop a cure. .1. The prescription was brought back to Congling, and according to the prescription, the eyes were washed once a day, and the vision could be restored at least half a month, at most a year. But before this, most of the people who were affected by the obscuring eye sand had died, or It will be hard to see things for a lifetime."

The story Leng Mei told was very long, but as an after-dinner chat, the relationship between the two of them was not awkward. The ending of the story was a little heavy, but it was undoubtedly good news for Jiang Yichen.

After Jiang Yichen heard this, he couldn't be more grateful. After all, half a moon is really not a long time considering his current situation.

It's just that Leng Mei's tone suddenly changed, and he asked in confusion: "The extermination of the Nai tribe happened a hundred years ago. Who did you offend that you can use the blinding sand to harm you?"
