Yun Daier looked at the sunshine shining on the lamas, and her palms couldn't help but sweat coldly. The bone-bone chilling penetrated the limbs from the inside out. The lamas looked at them, and they flashed green like wild beasts. The fearless living Buddha only asked them to capture Yun Daier alive, and did not care whether she was perfect. Therefore, everyone had bad thoughts. If they could participate in joyful Zen with this beautiful woman, they would be happy to live for ten years. Yun Daier was shy and afraid, but she couldn't move. Even if she wanted to commit suicide, it would be difficult to do it. Her heart was full of sadness.

At this moment, suddenly, a young man strode towards him, and the scholar who warned him in the wine shop last night! Yun Daier was overjoyed, as if a drowning man had finally grabbed the life-saving wood. He thought about how he happened to appear here, and hurriedly shouted: "Sir, help me!"

Hu Xiaotian looked at the beautiful beauty lying on the snow, and his eyes fell on her plump and firm peaks. He was amazed again. He was such a beauty in the world! He said loudly: "Miss is calling for help, I wonder what I can do to serve?"

Yun Daier's face turned red, and she secretly scolded the other party for her bold and rude eyes, and said with a shy voice: "These robbers killed my followers and had their plans and were inappropriate. Fortunately, they were unable to act for the time being, and I was seriously injured. Can you ask the sir to help me get on the horse and leave here?"

Hu Xiaotian said, "The beauty has orders, how dare you not follow me?" As he spoke, he walked closer, looked at the blood and corpses everywhere, smelled the strong smell of blood, and his mind became hot. Yu Wang, who had originally been unable to suppress the murderous intent, completely broke through reason. He instinctively picked up a scimitar, walked behind the last lama, and inserted it into the key hole of his vest, blood gushed like a fountain. Hu Xiaotian became more excited when he saw the blood, and he raised his sword like a devil, killing five people in a row.

Yun Daier didn't expect that the scholar was so cruel. He killed several people cleanly and neatly. He didn't even frown much. He was stunned and nervous. He suddenly woke up. This person could know the miraculous effect of "Tianlu Purple Orchid" and "Immortal Grass" and revealed Xu Yilang's conspiracy. This insight and courage were comparable to ordinary scholars? In such a chaotic and terrifying situation last night, he could escape safely, relying on more than luck. Seeing Hu Xiaotian's blood-red eyes looking at him, he suddenly became deeply afraid and screamed: "Stop, don't come over!"

Hu Xiaotian was shocked all over, and was awakened by her screams. The violent aura in his chest was vented after killing people, and the destructive yuwang gradually calmed down. He looked at the staggering corpse in front of him and asked blankly: "Are they dead? Could it be that I killed them?"

Yun Daier said, "Of course you killed it, the blood on the knife is not cold yet! It's incredible that you, a scholar, are so cruel. Who are you? Why are you ambushing around here?"

Hu Xiaotian's heart was shocked, and the scimitar was inserted into the ground with a slight sense that something was wrong. He had just wanted to knock out the lamas, and then left with Yun Daier on a horse, but suddenly lost his mind and started killing. This was enough to show that the yin and yang energy in his body had reached the verge of being out of control. If he did not try to harmonize Yin and Yang, the time for losing his mind would be more and more frequent, and he would eventually become a murderous demon! This is an imminent crisis. He took a deep breath and said calmly: "Miss Yun, are you suspicious of me? If I want to harm you, I don't have to remind you last night and didn't need to come here just now. In order to save you, I have offended someone I shouldn't offend! If you don't trust me, I will turn around and leave and never dare to harass the lady."

Yun Daier bit her lower lip and said, "You may not have malice, but you are definitely not an ordinary scholar! We have never known each other, why do you risk killing me?"

Hu Xiaotian scratched his scalp and said with a wry smile: "The reason is very simple. I don't want to see such a beautiful and holy woman being defiled! As for my true identity, please forgive me for not telling me for the time being."

Yun Daier's lips unconsciously felt a smile, and she said softly: "Then what you mean is, do you like me, right?" She was quite confident in her appearance. After seeing her, she was fascinated by countless men who were unable to eat and could not be surprised at this.

Hu Xiaotian looked in shock and saw Yun Daier's expression was natural, without any shyness and twisting of the Central Plains women. He couldn't help but sigh at the boldness and straightforwardness of the women in the Western Regions. He smiled slightly and said frankly: "Miss Yun is a natural beauty and beautiful woman. He does have the capital to love men all over the world. But his status is humble, how dare he have any idea of ​​climbing up? He is really just appreciating Miss Yun, and it is not a question of whether he likes it or not." He has practiced Buddhist mental methods for many years and has been dating beautiful women like Tang Xue and Yi Wufeng, so how could he be easily moved by beauty?

Yun Daier carefully observed that his expression was not like lying. It turned out that she had guessed wrongly. She was purely brave and had no other selfish thoughts! Her cheeks flushed, and she felt a little disappointed. She was also a little curious. Why could this man resist her charm? She said: "Do you have someone you like? Is she more beautiful than me?"

Hu Xiaotian suddenly felt ache in his heart and sighed: "Once the vast sea was hard to make water, but Wushan was not clouds! In my eyes, she is the most beautiful woman in the world, and no one can replace her!"

Yun Daier looked at his lonely and sad face in an instant, and her heart trembled inexplicably. Could it be that he had experienced a heart-wrenching sad thing? If it weren't for the infatuated man who was extremely affectionate, how could his eyes be filled with deep affection like the sea? Without asking, he must have been separated from the person he loved, perhaps forever. With this in mind, his fear of Hu Xiaotian was greatly reduced and he whispered: "I'm sorry, I shouldn't mention something that makes you sad. Please look for me, are there any healing pills on their bodies?" He said, and reluctantly pointed at his companion lying on the ground.

Hu Xiaotian secretly praised her for being smart and changing the topic at the right time, cleverly avoiding each other's embarrassment, and responded: "Yes!" He immediately found the pills for treating internal injuries, fed Yun Daier several pills, then dug a big hole, and buried the body of the Ming Cultists.

Yun Daier's complexion improved significantly after taking the medicine. She stood up tremblingly, knelt down in front of her companion's grave, put her hands on her chest and made a rising flame, murmured and said, "The holy fire is beating, the soul returns to the light! Maitreya, I am honored, to help all living beings in the world..."

Hu Xiaotian took advantage of her tribute to the dead and walked over to search the bodies of the lamas carefully, but unfortunately he did not find any useful clues. It seems that they are not the core figures of this operation and do not know too many secrets. The corpses of the lamas are still cold and stiff, as if they had been frozen in the ice warehouse for three days and three nights, and the situation is very strange.

After Yun Daier finished praying, she gently wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes and bowed to Hu Xiaotianshen and said, "Thank you for your repeated help! From today on, you will be the guest of honor of the Ming Cult. No matter what needs you have in the future, we will try our best to satisfy them. I just don't know what you call me?"

Hu Xiaotian's thoughts were heard and said, "Since Miss Yun treats me as a friend, of course I have to tell you the truth--my name is 'Hu Xiaotian'!" After a pause, he asked, "Miss Yun, do you have any plans for the next step?"

Yun Daier frowned and said, "In a melee last night, how many of us escaped? The most urgent task is to contact the people in our church, convey the news of our attack to the headquarters, and ask the headquarters to send experts to the assistance of the headquarters immediately. Then find out the envoy behind the incident as soon as possible and figure out their conspiracy! The nearest secret branch of our church is located in Lanzhou, responsible for managing the northwest industries, so I have to go to Lanzhou. Can you send me a ride?"

Hu Xiaotian touched her eyes, and she couldn't say anything she refused. She couldn't help but sigh that the charm of the beauty was indeed extraordinary. Although he knew very well that he would be in a dangerous situation in this way. He pondered: "I can accompany you to Lanzhou, and even help you find out the whole thing. However, I have a condition."

“What are the conditions?”

Hu Xiaotian smiled and said, "Let me tell you when I think about it. Don't worry, I won't let you suffer."

Lanzhou is an important town in the northwest. It is located on the banks of the Yellow River. It is surrounded by mountains and lush trees. It has many ancient monuments in history. It is a must-pass place for the ancient Silk Road. Merchants from the Western Regions, India, Persia, Outer Mongolia and other places gather here, especially Huihui's most populous people. Walking on the streets, you can see Islamic restaurants with a crescent moon shining everywhere. The streets are filled with the fragrance of roasted lamb. The streets and alleys are filled with fruit stalls, white orchids, winter fruit pears, peaches, grapes and other melons are piled up like mountains, and the prices are quite low.

Hu Xiaotian and Yun Daier had disguised themselves as an ordinary middle-aged couple before entering the city. Although they met several teams of people from the world on the way, they were safe and no one paid attention to them. It was getting late, so the two of them found an inn and rented a secluded courtyard alone to avoid being accidentally caught in the scene.

Covering the door, Yun Daier couldn't wait to wash away the disguise powder on her face, carefully combed it in the bronze mirror, let out a long sigh, and said satisfied: "You've painted someone so ugly that you'll look good again."

Hu Xiaotian smiled bitterly and said, "Miss, if you don't change your appearance, I'm afraid that the men in the entire Lanzhou City will come out to see you. How can we hide it from the enemy?"

Yun Daier shouted: "Anyway, I will never become ugly again in the future! I can cover my face with a veil. Can't I achieve the same effect?"

Hu Xiaotian shook his head and sighed, as long as it is a woman, his love for beauty is equally strong! For this reason, he can even ignore the danger of killing himself. He said seriously: "If it is not necessary, you must not leave this courtyard and act alone. The other party has a huge force, and it is difficult to guarantee that there will be no eyeliner in the inn. You are their most important goal, so you must be extra careful. If there is a flaw, we will have no room for maneuver."

Yun Daier said: "I am not a child anymore. I know what to do at the critical moment of life and death. By the way, why don't we go directly to the secret branch in Lanzhou but hide here?"

Hu Xiaotian said: "The other party is determined to win this action, but you broke through and escaped. How could they stop? I guess on the one hand, the other party will send a large number of people to search in the wild to hunt down the fish, and on the other hand, the other party will send experts to closely monitor your branch and adopt the strategy of waiting for the rabbit. In this way, as long as you have not left the territory of Lanzhou, you will sooner or later fall into the trap. But now with me to help you, the other party's wishful thinking is destined to fail."

Yun Daier suddenly said, "What you mean is that you will contact our school branch on behalf of me and send out the news of our attack?"

Hu Xiaotian shook his head and said, "This is certainly a solution, but it is still not the best strategy. Think about it, the other party can grasp your exact whereabouts, set up an ambush in advance, and be familiar with your eating habits, which means they are well aware of your situation. I even worry that the other party has bribed some of the believers in your branch, or can intercept your letters you have come and go at any time. Therefore, in this extraordinary period, you should try to avoid contact with your Ming Cult's branch, so as not to cause trouble and be inseparable from peace."

Yun Daier frowned and said, "But if I don't contact them, how can I convey the message to the headquarters? What's the use of us coming to Lanzhou?"

Hu Xiaotian asked without answering, "Does anyone know your itinerary in the Ming Cult?"

Yun Daier nodded and said, "Before we set off, we have notified the branches along the way and asked them to prepare for reception in advance. According to the original plan, we should stay in Lanzhou for one day, and then leave Yumen through Wuwei, Zhangye, and Jiayuguan..." When we said this, our eyes suddenly lit up and we clapped our hands and said, "I understand! Even if we cannot send out the news, these branches did not receive us at the established time. We will follow the news of our disappearance in less than three days."

Hu Xiaotian said: "Not bad! You are the saint of the Ming Cult, and there are two elders of the escort. The leaders of the branch below must seize the opportunity and try every means to please you. After all the banquet gifts were carefully prepared, you did not appear as scheduled. As long as you are a little smart, you must know that you had an accident in the middle. Therefore, we will keep our troops in the moment, wait and see, and let the enemies hiding in the dark jump out by themselves."

Yun Daier worriedly said, "But is it safe for us to stay here? What if the other party comes to investigate, how should we deal with it?"

Hu Xiaotian said slowly: "The big thing is hidden in the city. Even if the opponent's power and skills are used to check the inns in the city within three days, it will be quite difficult. If the sky falls, I will take it first. You don't have to be afraid. There will always be a solution to anything."

Yun Daier looked at his confident eyes, somehow she relaxed her body and mind, and her tiredness surged. She couldn't help but cover her mouth and yawned. She narrowed her eyes and said, "It's late at night, I'm going to rest! Go out, what's the matter tomorrow."

Hu Xiaotian rubbed his nose and said, "My lady, we used the name of husband and wife when we stayed in. We only rented a room in total. Where did you let me go in the middle of the night? If someone saw it, it would be strange if you don't feel suspicious."

Yun Daier was stunned, then her pretty face turned red, and she ate and said, "You, do you want to stay in the same room with me?" She secretly glanced at the narrow bed, her heart was beating like a pounding, and countless inexplicable fantasies passed by her mind like lightning, making her hands and feet not know how to place them.

Hu Xiaotian said: "I have to do it, please forgive me, my lady. I'll go to bed first." He moved a quilt to the door, spread it on the ground, put it in his clothes, lying down, and then he made a uniform breathing sound.

Yun Dai'er stayed silent for a while and finally plucked up the courage to blow out the oil lamp. She groped and went to bed, but she didn't even take off her shoes. She pulled the quilt and wrapped her tightly, feeling that her cheeks were so hot that it was hot. In the darkness, Hu Xiaotian's breathing was clearly heard. Her heart was like a deer. What if he climbed up to the cage in the middle of the night, what should she do? Should she shout for help or kill him with one palm? She fell asleep quietly in her mind.

When he woke up the next day, Hu Xiaotian told Yun Dai'er to stay in the inn and not to run around. He restored Xia Wentao's appearance and went to visit his future father-in-law Su Quan. It turned out that Su Quan was the magistrate of Lanzhou Prefecture. He served in the government for many years and was very famous. He was well-known to the locals. Hu Xiaotian was guided by people all the way and soon came to the outside of the Su Mansion. The gate tower stood, with golden plaques hanging high, glazed tiles shining, and two mighty stone lions guarded the door, and the entire courtyard was very majestic.

After pressing the door, an old servant with gray hair and strong figure came out. He looked up and down at Hu Xiaotian for a few glances and said, "What's the point of doing sir?"

Hu Xiaotian raised his hand and bowed, "Xiaosheng's surname is Xia, and he is from Chengdu Prefecture, Sichuan. My father had been a colleague with your master and had a friendship with Fei Qian. Because his father was persecuted by others, he unfortunately passed away. In order to avoid his enemies, Xiaosheng had to flee Sichuan and came to surrender to Uncle Su! I wonder if Uncle Su is convenient for him to meet guests?" When he spoke, he had a Sichuan accent, which was vivid.

The old servant's eyes flashed and he asked in surprise: "Are you the son of Mr. Xia Yuancheng Xia?"

Hu Xiaotian answered unambiguously: "That's right!"

The old servant pondered and said, "There is no credibility for nothing. Since you claim to be the son of the Xia family, can you have tokens as evidence?"

Hu Xiaotian said: "When my father was alive, he gave me a jade bracelet, saying that it was given by Uncle Su. The jade bracelet was originally a pair, and the other one was still in Uncle Su's hands. Just ask Uncle Su to take it out and compare it to determine whether what I said is true or false." Then he took out the jade bracelet and handed it over.

The old servant's expression changed slightly, he respectfully took the jade bracelet and said, "Please wait for a moment, and the little man Rong will report it to the master." He turned around and hurried towards the inner courtyard.

Seeing that he turned around, the lower plate was extremely calm and he was spotless when he walked, he was stunned. His palms were cold and he almost ran away. Although the old servant had a humble status, he was an absolute martial arts master! How could he be an ordinary person who could drive such masters to be servants? Su Quan was probably not easy to fool! Once the other party discovered the flaw, Hu Xiaotian would not be confident and escaped. Should he continue to impersonate him?
Chapter completed!
