Chapter 43: Smoke of the Beacon (40)
Li Yijian smiled brightly and clasped his fists and said, "Thank you for taking revenge, I'm so angry."
Only then did July realize that he was referring to the low-mountain gate to kill Wei Wuquan. "So easy."
"I'll thank you anyway." After Li Yijian said that, he took out a black wooden box from the bag, opened it and pushed it in front of July.
There were strange things in the box, like ice and snow, like the appearance of corals under the sea, but not stone.
"This..." July looked at something, but felt unsure of it, and tentatively said, "Is it the thousand-year-old ice coral?"
"I knew you would have known you!" Li Yijian said and smiled. "When I was a friend who was kind to me, I couldn't go over to seek revenge on Wei Wuquan. I heard that he died at your hands, so I tried every means to thank you, and I also heard that you like to taste the delicious food in the world. This thousand-year-old ice coral was a treasure that all women in the world loved, so I spent some time looking for it. It happened that a mountain village pharmacist who had received my help found out and brought this thing to me."
Li Yijian took out a pot of wine from his bag, poured two glasses, and invited July to drink with him. Seeing that July had not received it, she had to drink a drink alone to prevent her from suspected poisonous.
"I heard that you came to Yan State and it took some trouble to get your rough whereabouts. In order to give you this thing, I found it all the way, and I hope you will like it."
Li Yijian said as he filled the wine again and raised him to invite him to drink with him. The latter said lightly, "Killing Wei Wuquan is just a good way, there is no way to repay you. If you take it back, I won't want it. As for drinking, thank you for your kindness. I don't like drinking now, and I don't like drinking with unfamiliar people."
Li Yijian's expression immediately became ugly, and he smiled bitterly and said, "This is too straightforward!" He had already put down his wine glass when he said that. Seeing that Qiuyue was indifferent, he had to say, "I am good friends with Xinhou, and you and Xinhou are good friends, not count..."
"That doesn't mean that you and I are good friends."
Before Li Yijian could finish speaking, he was interrupted.
Li Yijian sighed helplessly and took out a letter from his arms and said, "To be honest, this ice and snow coral is not given by a Chinese medicine household in the mountains. In fact, it was Xinhou knew that I was looking for it and received it from his mansion. There is a letter here, so why don't you decide whether to accept it after reading it?"
I took it and read it, but I saw that there were not many handwritings inside.
‘After separation from the low mountain pass, the world changed, and we met forever since then. I heard that Brother Li was looking for ice and snow corals, but I was afraid that July would not accept them, so I prepared a letter to Brother Li. Half of this coral entrusted Brother Li’s gratitude and half of Ling Luo’s care. If July regards Ling Luo as a friend, please accept it calmly; if it does not accept it, you can only ask Brother Li to deal with the corals cheaply.’
After reading July, he remembered Ling Luo's figure, and then changed his mind. He drew the demon sword Hongyu and fell down with one sword. The ice and snow coral was divided into two, and July took out half of it.
"I have received the heart of the Queen Xin, and as for yours, I have understood it."
Li Yijian was stunned by it. He had never seen someone like Qiuyue. Seeing that she said that, she ignored her reaction and took half of the ice and snow coral and savored it carefully. Her long colorful hair was nearly half draped on her chest and half behind her back, and it was still a little wet.
When eating ice and snow corals, the eyes like phoenix eyes flashed with surprise. Every time I bite some points of the cherry-like red lips, I ate them carefully, and my posture was so beautiful.
‘I didn’t look closely at that time, I just thought she was beautiful, and I didn’t want it to be so beautiful…’
Before Li Yijian could sigh at the pleasing pleasure in front of him, he suddenly saw that July's cherry mouth suddenly grew like a snake's mouth. He ate most of the remaining ice and snow coral in one bite, chewed it quickly for a while, and swallowed it!
‘This, this…’ The huge contrast between the front and back made Li Yijian difficult to accept, and he was stunned for a moment. Seeing that July was tearing the hare meat and eating it in big mouthfuls, he couldn’t help but say with a heartache, “You are such a precious ice and snow coral, wouldn’t you waste your way of eating it like that?”
July said disapprovingly, "You have to finish eating it. After savoring the taste, of course you might as well just order it and save trouble. Do you have to put it on your body and eat it a little bit every few days?"
"This, this...with that said, it's just like this way of eating..."
"Besides, what does it have to do with you when I like to eat? Do you need to care?" July said, glaring at him. The latter immediately lost his words, thinking that half was given by Xinhou, and he really had no say. Thinking about it, he looked at the remaining half in the box and couldn't help but feel frowning.
"Please accept this half."
“No charge.”
"Please accept it."
July simply ignored him.
Seeing that she ignored her, Li Yijian had to give up temporarily, put away the ice and snow corals, and then took the glass to her and said, "Then, is it okay to have a glass of wine?"
"No." July spit out two words and chews on his own rabbit bones.
Li Yijian couldn't help but feel depressed, and couldn't help but say angrily, "May Master Wu look down on me, Li Yijian so much!"
"I can't do anything if you insist on saying this yourself. I have already said that I will not drink with people I am unfamiliar with, and I will not accept unreasonable gifts."
"Since that's the case, say goodbye!" Li Yijian was inexplicably angry, took the box and took the wine pot and got up and left.
It was still raining outside the house, and he ignored it. He put on a hat and jumped on his horse's back, then drove away.
When he ran for several miles, his anger gradually calmed down.
‘I came to Yan State from thousands of miles to thank him. What is the point of going back like this? Half of the ice and snow coral is gone, and the remaining half is returned to the marquis? Isn’t it a joke? I, Li Yijian, don’t believe me, still. Can’t I give you a sincere thank you? Humph... I won’t call you Li Yijian!’
Li Yijian immediately turned his horse's head and ran back to the village. Seeing that July had eaten a hare, there were piles of broken bones on the ground, he was sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed and meditating without any response to his arrival. He was not afraid of embarrassment and sat down next to the fire, and also used his power to meditate cross-legged to rest and rest and rest.
At midnight, the rain is getting heavier.
There was a sudden sound of riding hooves outside the village. July suddenly opened his eyes, picked up his bag and walked out of the door.
Li Yijian also heard the noise and hurriedly got up and followed her out.
I saw a group of more than twenty riders running into the village. When I saw them, I immediately rode around them. They all set their bows and arrows at July, shouting, "It's okay to get out of here! Those who hindered the founding of the mountain sect will be killed without mercy!"
Li Yijian raised his hands, walked leisurely and walked away, sitting there and watching. Seeing that he was so calm, the group of people did not dare to continue to say some bad things in a slight manner. They ignored him and looked at Qiyue. The person in charge looked at him for a while, and asked with a smile, "Long colorful hair, the appearance of a fairy. Is it the martial master Qiyue that King Zheng wants?"
Seeing these people coming in full force, July knew that they were martial artists from Yan State, and they were all trying to win her in exchange for the reward from King Zheng.
"I don't know that the sky is high and the earth is strong. You rats think that there are too many people to take me."
"Hmph! What's the matter with the Shenwu Ring of Zheng State? All the people invited are fake benevolence and righteousness, self-righteousness, and the powerful family's greasy and pink faces!"
The man spoke wildly, and the others echoed and laughed.
"Looking at how beautiful you, Wu Zunsheng, are you the one who feels like Wu Zun by sleeping with a man?"
"A group of ignorant madmen."
After saying that, July took a deliberate step and pretended to take action. Seeing this, those people shot arrows together, and more than 20 powerful arrows flew towards them.
Those people think that like those opponents they have encountered in the past, they can kill with a bow and crossbow.
Seeing more than twenty powerful arrows flying in front of July, I saw my body dancing and colorful sleeves flying, and all the powerful arrows were scattered into her sleeves.
Seeing this, the more than 20 martial artists quickly opened their bows and were about to shoot again. When they saw that July waving their sleeves, a cold light suddenly scattered across the sky.
Twenty-seven arrows hit the throats of twenty-seven people respectively.
Only the leader who gave the order did not shoot, and was not shot by the thrown arrow at this moment.
The man's hands and feet were trembling, and he didn't even have the courage to escape.
The stiff and trembling feet gradually left the stirrups, and they still didn't know that. Suddenly, their bodies tilted, slid and rolled into the muddy ground, and they hurriedly got up and knelt on the ground and kowtowed.
"Martial Master, please spare me..."
The man only kowtowed and begged for mercy, and did not care about the mud on the ground. After a while, his head and face were covered with mud and water, and he kept kowtowing and begging hard.
"Have you brought the money?"
July asked softly, and the man hurriedly took out the money bag on his body. Without waiting for her to say anything, he rushed over and took out all the property on his killed companion and piled it at the door of the house where July was standing.
After finishing his work, he fell to his knees again.
"What else does the fairy have to tell you?"
"Have you brought food?"
The man learned to be smart this time. In the heavy rain, he took off all the bags that were immediately packed with things from his companions, piled them up, and even plundered all the weapons, arrows, hidden weapons, fire folds and other items of his companions. He took out all the food in his companions, piled them up under the eaves of the broken houses in different categories, and arranged them in a row.
Then he knelt in the mud and water again.
"Fairy, please spare me!"
July kept watching the man busy quietly, until then, he said coldly, "Feixian Sect hates people to look down on women the most, leave half of his tongue, and then you can leave."
After hearing this, the man wanted to ask for something again, but when he saw July's cold gaze, he shrank back. Although he was afraid, half of his tongue had to exchange his life. As the saying goes, "It's better to live a life than to die well, so he had to muster up the courage to draw out the sword. He pinched his tongue with one hand and grabbed the sword with the other.
After such a stalemate for a while, I was so nervous that I was sweating all over under the heavy rain.
"I want me to help you? I'm afraid the cut will be longer."
The man suddenly made up his mind and waved his sword hard when he heard this!
Half of his tongue was cut off immediately, and others covered their mouths and roared in pain, kneeling down on the ground. After a long time, they got used to the pain and never spoke again - they could not speak, so they turned over and urged the horse to leave.
The four hooves of the fast horse splashed out mud as they stepped on the ground. The man ran away. As he was about to disappear in July's vision, the seventh month kicked, and an arrow on the ground flew over and chased after him. He hit the man's vest and brought others out of the horse, throwing him more than ten feet before he fell to the ground, and he lost his breath.
