Sword Moon Lyrics

Night gradually fell, the lights of Baima City were brightly lit, and people were in panic. All the caravans also stayed up all night, waiting for the day to come.

The next morning was the winter solstice, and a light flashed outside the North City Gate. Someone pointed and said, "Look, the restrictions on the frozen tundra have been opened."

"There is not a single monster outside the north gate."

"Yesterday, the demon tribe repeatedly shouted that they only wanted to take back Baima City and would not stop us from going to Binglan Valley. Is it true?"

People talked a lot, but no one dared to go out of the north gate. After all, how credible can the demon clan's words be? No one dares to joke with his own life.

Unconsciously, two days passed, and the demonic tide blocked the outside of Baima City and refused to attack the city. But the caravans in the city couldn't stand it any longer, and the noise became louder and louder.

That night, after the third watch, Ye Wuji returned to the inn.

Yun'er, Xiao Hulu, Shi Feng, and Qin Bing were all awake. When they saw him coming in, they quickly gathered around, "How is it?"

Ye Wuji shook the snowflakes on his body, "What else can I do? We have been arguing all night!

The Xue family repeatedly said that this is a alienation plan by the demon clan. The demon beasts are cruel in nature and have no credibility at all. If you leave Baima City and enter the frozen tundra, you will fall into a trap.

And if you all stay and fight against powerful enemies together, the Xue family will be deeply grateful. "

Yun'er asked, "What's the big thank you? Can you give me a few Ten Thousand Years Cold Marrow Grass?"

Ye Wuji said angrily, "How many thousand-year-old cold marrow grasses? You have a good idea!

The conditions proposed by the Xue family are fifty thousand spirit stones for each person, and an additional hundred thousand for the Jindan monks. In addition, the Xue family can provide snow spirit horses for free whenever they come to Baima City in the future. "

Shi Feng shook his head, "How can a caravan of tens of thousands of spirit stones notice it? As for providing snow spirit horses, it is also a matter of the future. How can we do it accurately? If White Horse City is razed to the ground this time, how can we fulfill it in the future? "

"Yes!" Ye Wuji took over, "When the Xue family said this, no one in the caravan agreed. They all said that Binglan Valley only had two months to collect cold jade, and they would go back in the coming spring.

It would take another month to get to Binglan Valley and cross the frozen tundra, so we couldn't afford to lose time.

Being trapped in Baima City right now, day after day passing by, is not the solution after all.

At that time, Xue Minghui, the fourth daughter of the Xue family, said that monsters also want to eat, and they cannot besiege the city forever.

Someone immediately retorted, Miss Xue, how many days do you think we have to wait before the beast tide recedes? Xue Minghui naturally couldn't answer. "

Shi Feng smiled bitterly, "These demon kings are really smart. We all know that he used a stratagem to separate the caravan and the Xue family, but he couldn't figure out their scheme."

"What happened next?" Yun'er asked.

"Later, the quarrel became more and more fierce. Xue Shiyi, the third son of the Xue family, suddenly came to the table and said, since you are not willing to work together, then we can't help you, and you don't want any of the Xueling horses..."

Without the Snow Spirit Horse, it would be a fantasy to cross the frozen tundra on foot.

"... As soon as Xue Laosan said this, the scene immediately exploded. Many people stood up and angrily accused the Xue family of being unjust. Xue Lingma made the decision half a year ago. Why did he go back on his word at the moment? This is used to coerce everyone to accompany the Xue family to defend the city.

Xue Laosan replied, "We are all dead, so why should we lend you the horse?" Some people said, are you going to drag us to die with you?

Both sides said different things, and the quarrel became more and more fierce. "

Yun'er suddenly smiled and said, "Then why did everyone just quarrel and not grab the horses? The strength of the various caravans jointly exceeds that of the Xue family."

Ye Wuji shook his head, "Of course not. The Xue Ling horses are all kept in the city lord's mansion and are heavily guarded. What if the Xue family is ruthless and kills all the horses?"

"What happened after the quarrel?"

"Xue Xinggong, the boss of the Xue family, never said a word. In the end, it was Xue Shijing, the second eldest son, who came to appease everyone and asked everyone to wait for two more days before making a decision based on the situation. Everyone had no choice but to disperse."

Shi Feng listened silently.

Ye Wuji asked, "Fellow Taoist Shi, what do you think of this matter?"

Shi Feng touched his ears, "There's something I've never figured out. Since the demon clan wants to divide the caravan and the Xue family and force us to leave Baima City, why don't they besiege the city a few days later?

After waiting for two more days, after the winter solstice, the caravans have all set off, and only the Xue family is left in Baima City. Wouldn't it be easier to deal with them? But the demon clan chose to besiege the city before the winter solstice. "

Ye Wuji thought for a moment and was puzzled, "Well, it takes time to gather the various tribes of monster beasts. Maybe it's just a coincidence!"

After waiting for another two days, the beast tide still surrounded the southeast, west and west parts of Baima City in a dark way, leaving only the north side open.

In total, four days have passed since the winter solstice. The caravans from various caravans could no longer hold back and gathered together in front of the city lord's palace. The crowd was furious.

Finally, after deliberation, Xue Xinggong came forward in person and announced two things. First, the caravan could leave the city, but only half of the originally ordered snow spirit horses could be delivered; second, the spirit stones would no longer be collected and would all be paid in kind. Buckle, including magic weapons, elixirs, talismans, hidden weapons, puppets, etc.

The caravans naturally refused to agree, but no matter how noisy they were, Xue Xinggong would not let go at all, and he was categorical. If he did not follow these two rules, then Xue Jian would rather be in pieces than in pieces, and no one would be able to get Xue Lingma.

At noon that day, the city lord's palace opened a roster in the east courtyard to hand over the snow spirit horse.

Ye Wuji and his party totaled five people. He had left a surplus before and ordered six snow spirit horses.

But even though he had a good relationship with Xue Xinggong and paid several bottles of high-quality elixirs, he only got back three snow spirit horses.

What should I do if I still owe two horses?

Yun'er frowned, "Why don't you squeeze in, I'll ride with Sister Qin, Uncle Ye Shi, you and Xiao Gourd, and Brother Shi, you're the biggest, ride alone."

Shi Feng touched the long mane of the Xueling horse. The horse was not tall, and its hooves were wide and thick, like a big cushion. "No, this horse is not strong enough to bear a heavy load. With two people on it, it will not be easy to step on the snow." It’s safe and you can’t walk very fast.”

In the black turtle bones, Long Er crossed his legs, "This is not easy to handle! Don't you have the black turtle bones? You and Miss Qin can get in, and then let Yun'er take the black turtle bones, don't talk about San One horse is enough."

After pondering for a long time, Shi Feng still shook his head, "No, if Yun'er is alone, that's okay, but with Doctor Ye around, it's still not appropriate to expose the black turtle bones.

Besides, even if Bing'er and I dig into the black turtle bones, it will take a month to cross the frozen tundra. If we encounter monsters along the way, I will have to deal with them. How can we do it without the Snow Spirit Horse? "

Bai Hu took the words and said, "Yes, in addition, you will also need snow spirit horses when you come back from Binglan Valley. I have two of them. Even if I have one, I will feel more at ease."

In the inn, everyone frowned and couldn't think of a way.

Finally Shi Feng said, "I have no choice but to use some dirty tricks. I will go to the city lord's mansion tonight and try to steal two snow spirit horses."

Yun'er clapped her hands and smiled, "It's fun! It's fun! I'll go with you."

At the fourth watch of the night, Shi Feng and Yun'er came back, and Qin Bing hurriedly came up to greet them, "How was it? Did you succeed?"

Yun'er didn't say anything, she laughed first.

"Sister Qin, you really should go and see it. There are only four guards at the gate of the city lord's palace, but there are fifty or sixty people with masks on outside who want to steal horses. There are more thieves than officials. How do you think we should start?"

Shi Feng sighed, "It seems that many people have the same idea as me, and the City Lord's Mansion has also noticed it, and has opened all restrictions and taken strict precautions.

If we still take action, it will not be stealing, but robbing openly. "

Anyone who steals horses knows that once the caravan and the Xue family fight over the robbery of the Xue Ling horses, the Xue family will definitely kill all the Xue Ling horses, and the demon clan outside will take advantage of the chaos to attack the city. All going to hell.

As a result, the masked people outside circled around the courtyard wall, and finally dispersed, and the City Lord's Mansion also pretended not to know anything.
