Seeking the Flying Sword Path

At night, in Yi Xiao's house in the Sheriff's Mansion.

She was alone in front of the desk, the lights were dim, the windows were open, and the sky was full of stars tonight.

"Father, I'm going to deal with the water god monster tomorrow." Yi Xiao murmured in a low voice while holding the jade pendant in his hand, "Maybe you don't care if I live or die. It's been ten years, but you've wandered the world Didn't come to see me again, you are my only family member, so cruel, so cruel."

...

Night, Qin Mansion.

Qin Yun sat in front of the window, a flying sword flew out of his palm, and quickly grew to three feet long.

Holding the silver sword in his hand, Qin Yun gently wiped the edge of the sword with his fingers, the sword was cold: "I have practiced this flying sword for thirteen years, just for this day!"

Sitting withered all night, before I knew it, the sky outside the window turned pale.

Qin Yun got up and inserted the silver sword in his hand directly into the scabbard. He still disguised himself as an ordinary magic weapon flying sword, not a natal flying sword.

Squeak, the door opens.

Qin Yun left the yard.

"Second son, good morning."

"Second son, good morning."

The servants even shouted respectfully.

Qin Yun ordered: "Ah Gui, prepare the horse for me."

"Yes, Second Young Master." Servant Agui immediately went to the stable to lead the horse.

After leaving the gate of the Qin Mansion, the horses were soon brought over.

After getting on his horse, Qin Yun said, "Uncle Li, I'm going out today, and I may not come back tonight."

"Okay." Li Bolian replied with a smile, for a cultivator like his second son, it is not uncommon to go out for ten and a half months.

"drive!"

Qin Yun rode away immediately.

It was very early today, and there were very few people on the street. Even on Jinglou Street, hawkers set up their stalls early.

"Fatty Liu, give me five buns." Qin Yun rode to a bun seller and said immediately.

"Second Young Master?" The fat man who sold the buns enthusiastically took out a piece of oil paper wrapped with five meat buns, and handed it to Qin Yun, "Second Young Master, come to me to eat buns, no money, no money."

"Take it." Qin Yun threw out ten big coins, which flew neatly onto the stool next to the booth.

Qin Yun rode away immediately.

Fatty Liu smiled and collected ten big coins, while the other peddlers kept saying, "Fatty Liu, is that the second son? The second son of the Qin family?"

"I heard that the second son of the Qin family is a cultivator of immortals."

"Cultivators also give money for eating steamed buns."

The peddlers around talked a lot.

Fatty Liu proudly said: "What do you know, when the second son was young ten years ago, he often came to eat steamed stuffed buns with me, and he likes my steamed stuffed buns the most."

...

Qin Yun couldn't help showing a smile as he ate the meat buns he used to eat when he was a teenager. I remember that I had just arrived in the county from the village. At that time, my father had a broken arm and was still recovering from his injuries. Once my mother bought meat buns. I shared the meat buns with my brother. I ate more than half of them. It was really delicious. After my father became a head catcher, I often went to buy Fatty Liu's meat buns.

After eating the meat buns, he rode very quickly all the way, and the sun only showed half of his face before Qin Yun left the east city gate.

"Yi Xiao hasn't arrived yet?" Qin Yun took a glance, then got off his horse outside the East City Gate and waited.

Waited a moment.

Then he saw Yi Xiao wearing a light blue robe riding out of the East City Gate, and Yi Xiao saw Qin Yun at a glance as soon as he came out.

"Here?" Qin Yun got on his horse.

"You came out quite early." Yi Xiao smiled.

"I've been waiting for this day for too long. Also, Miss Yi, I have to thank you." Qin Yun said, Yi Xiao had indeed collected more information than himself, and if he followed his original plan, he might have great regrets.

"I was going to do it, and I invited you, let's go." Yi Xiao said.

"Walk."

The two immediately rode forward together.

The two steeds galloped along the official road, speeding all the way. Occasionally, they saw some villager teams on the side of the official road. The teams of village names all had carriages, and there were children in the carriages, usually twenty children. Some of these children were full of tears, some were in a daze, and some were gnawing steamed buns.

"On the twenty-eighth day of June, the children of each village must be dedicated to the water god." Qin Yun explained, "It must also be on the twenty-eighth day of June, neither earlier nor later! Because there are twenty This area is a forbidden area, and any human race who dares to enter the forbidden area without permission will be killed without mercy."

"The entire Guangling County is very large, with nearly 20 counties and millions of people. Some of them even have to travel seven or eight hundred miles to send their children to the Water God's Mansion, so it has to be a few days in advance. Like these two or three in advance It is also very common for people to leave in the first day." Qin Yun said, "Because it is delivered every year, each village has already had the experience of traveling."

We all have experience.

Qin Yun felt a tingling pain in his heart. It has been more than two hundred years like this.

"They won't need these experiences in the future." Yi Xiao said.

"Yes, I don't need it anymore." Qin Yun nodded.

Da da da……

The horseshoes galloped all the way towards the water god's mansion.

*****

A village in Yugao County.

Chang Er and his family of three are being locked in a cell.

The tall and thin man came to the cell with two men, and opened the chain with his own hands. The tall and thin man said: "Second brother, come out."

The woman in the cell rushed out and grabbed the tall and thin man: "Where is my baby? Where is the baby?"

"The team to deliver the boys and girls has already set off for a day." The tall and thin man said calmly.

The woman was taken aback, then sat down on the ground, speechless.

"Xiao'e, we are the ones who are sorry for the baby." Chang Erhong hugged the other child in her arms, who was sleeping soundly.

"No, no..." the woman wept in a low voice, she knew she could do nothing, year after year, generation after generation, for more than two hundred years!

...

There are nearly twenty counties in Guangling County, how many villages, how many families are sad. But the water god monster can cover the sky with one hand, he can send monsters to slaughter a village at least, and at worst, he can set off monstrous floods and submerge countless villages, and the casualties will be heavy.

Qin Yun and Yi Xiao rode fast for two hundred miles, and when the sun was high, they arrived at their destination.

"In front is the monster cottage." Qin Yun pointed to the front, "All the boys and girls from the villages in Guangling County are sent to this monster cottage. The cottage is only ten miles away from the water god's mansion! Ordinary villagers are not qualified to approach the water god's mansion." .”

"Brother Qin, you said that the water god's mansion is surrounded by a forbidden area for twenty miles. If you invade it, you will be killed without mercy. Then we are now a little more than ten miles away from the water god's mansion?" Yi Xiao laughed.

"Yes, so the monsters in this cottage will come out soon." Qin Yun nodded, "We don't have to wait for them, we just kill them and take this cottage! Give that water god a blow first."

"The water god's formation spread all over the mansion for eighteen li, he should have found us. Wait until we destroy this cottage, let's see if he can hold back." Yi Xiao also said.

"If he doesn't dare to come for the two of us who are not congenital, he should just commit suicide." Qin Yun said, "Perhaps in his view, we are the prey."

The two chatted and laughed.

So he rode his horse and quickly approached that cottage. This monster cottage was built on the mountain, at the foot of the mountain, and it was also to welcome the boys and girls from the villages.

"Huh? It's not yet June 28th, why is someone here?" On an arrow tower in the Monster Village, there were two little monsters looking at a man and a woman riding horses from afar.

"Didn't you bring boys and girls?"

"Dare to invade the forbidden area set by the water god?"

The two little demons looked at each other.

"Boss, there are enemies, a man and a woman!" One of the little demons shouted loudly.

The entire monster cottage quickly became a commotion, monsters came out one by one, some were eating roasted human flesh, and they were responsible for receiving boys and girls. These monsters were trusted by the water god. One by one, they went to the gate of the cottage and looked at a man and a woman riding horses in the distance.

"Dare to kill a man and a woman?"

"It's so bold, grab it, and the man will eat it! The woman will play first, and then eat it."

They shouted one by one.

"Boss, I heard that the two human cultivators killed on Cangya Mountain were a man and a woman." A monster with pointed ears said loudly, and the surrounding monsters suddenly became quiet, while the thin leader's eyes widened. It was like a copper bell: "The man and the woman in Cangya Mountain?"
