Chapter 137 Infiltration

In the barren mountains, lightning flashed, thunder rolled, and heavy rain poured down. A dilapidated earth temple on the top of the mountain was vaguely reflected in the streaks of lightning. In the temple, a pair of eyes shone with light blue under the dim light. Li Er sat quietly on the wall, motionless. Suddenly, Li Er raised his eyebrows, his eyes blazing.

It turned out that behind him, a viper swam out of the shadows and stopped in front of Li Er. Lightning flashed across, casting a figure on the opposite wall. Li Er didn't move.

The man in green robe - "Viper" stood in front of him, his face still expressionless, and he said casually: "There is such a heavy thunderstorm in late autumn. It's really the wrong season."

Li Er still didn't say anything, just took a deep breath. "Viper" said: "If you hadn't shown up in Youzhou, it would have been really difficult to find you!" As he said that, he slowly took out a handkerchief, wiped his hands, and gently threw the handkerchief in on the ground.

Li Er still didn't move, his eyes were slightly closed, and he looked very calm.

"Viper" slowly pulled out the sword hanging from his waist and smiled softly: "Don't you want to stand up?"

The other party still didn't answer. "Viper" leisurely held up his sword and said, "Let's do it."

A bolt of lightning struck down, accompanied by a muffled thunder. Li Er's eyes suddenly opened, blazing brightly. The attack started, and Li Er barely stood up. He jumped out like lightning, spread out violently in the air, and landed behind the "viper". "Viper" did not turn around, but still shook his hand leisurely, and carried the sword behind his back with a "zheng" sound.

The figure shook, and Li Er had arrived in front of "Viper", and gold and iron suddenly clashed. Li Er's knife was interrupted by the opponent. "Viper" had a ferocious smile on his face: "You are very powerful. But you must die." As he said that, his right hand went straight to Li Er's throat with the sword. Li Er immediately stood up and smashed the knife in his hand at "Viper". "Viper" turned slightly. Taking advantage of this moment, Li Er jumped out of the temple like lightning and disappeared in the heavy rain. . "Viper" did not chase after him, and let out a proud chuckle from his throat.

Li Er was running in the rain, and suddenly he stumbled. He felt dizzy, and his chest immediately started to churn. He quickly stabilized his body and rested against a big tree next to the rocks. He found it very strange that this phenomenon had never happened before. Suddenly, blood surged in his chest, and with a "wow" sound, a mouthful of blood spurted out. ——Black blood! Li Er's eyes gradually became cloudy. He panted heavily and slowly lowered his head. Only then did he realize that a steel needle as thin as an ox's hair was inserted into his left shoulder. He reached out and pulled out the steel needle, and the needle flashed with a light blue light. Li Er's body kept shaking.

It rained heavily, and Li Er struggled to run forward. Through the rain curtain, he saw some lights flickering not far away, like a small town, maybe a village. Li Er crawled forward desperately. Suddenly, there was a faint sound of horse hooves coming from behind, which seemed very strange in this silent rainy night. Li Er was startled and struggled to get up, but his legs refused to obey him. The sound of horse hoofbeats was getting closer and closer. In desperation, Li Er rolled into the mud ditch beside the road.

More than a dozen large vehicles drove past Li Er quickly, rushing toward the small town that glowed with light, splashing a cloud of mud. Li Er's vision became increasingly blurry, and gradually everything became pitch black, and the sound of thunder and rain became very distant...

The place where the light shines is neither a small town nor a village, but a huge artificially dug cave. As streaks of lightning flashed across the sky, people could see that it was halfway up a high mountain. In the center of this cave is a stone road where two carriages can walk side by side. There are pine pillars on both sides, stretching for several miles. The torches on the pillars are burning brightly, illuminating the cave like daylight. There are forges on both sides of the stone road. Hundreds of blacksmiths are using sledgehammers to forge various weapons. The sound of jingling echoes in the cave, deafening. Completely drowning out the sound of rain outside the cave. A group of peasant-looking laborers moved back and forth like ants, placing the forged weapons on several large carts. Not far away, a group of guards dressed in black and holding swords and guns monitored the actions of the slave laborers and blacksmiths.

Inside the cave, there is an elegantly arranged stone cave, nicknamed "Qingxiang Xiaozhu". In the middle of the room, there is a very exquisitely crafted Eight Immortals table and a pair of chairs. A woman wearing a bamboo hat, a red gauze cloak, and moccasins was sitting on a chair, looking at something. This person is the young woman who once appeared in the cave outside Jiangzhang County. A man's voice came from outside: "Is Jin Mulan here?"

The woman looked up. As soon as the door rang, the maid Chunxiang walked in quickly: "Master, the Viper is outside."

Jin Mulan stood up and said, "Invite him in." Chunxiang turned around and went out.

There was a sound of footsteps and "Viper" walked in.

Jin Mulan walked up to him: "Back?"

"Viper" nodded, he always looked so leisurely.

Jin Mulan asked: "Where is Li Er?"

"Viper" said calmly: "He was hit by my Shadowless Needle. He should be dead by now."

Jin Mulan breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good."

"Viper" said: "There's nothing to worry about, you can just relax."

Jin Mulan sighed: "Why did Di Renjie abandon Gannan and come directly to Youzhou? Did he discover something? But we have always been very secretive. It can be said that there are no flaws."

"Viper" said: "Finding flaws from the absence of flaws is Di Renjie's specialty."

Jin Mulan smiled and said: "The person who can be praised by you must be very amazing."

"Viper" said: "Yes. There is only one person in the world who is as capable as Duke Dee. Therefore, you must be extra careful in your actions."

Jin Mulan laughed softly and said, "Why are you always so leisurely?"

"Viper" said: "Because nothing makes me feel nervous."

Jin Mulan said: "Where is Di Renjie?"

"Viper": "Neither can he."

Jin Mulan asked: "What about me?"

"Viper" paused: "Exception." Jin Mulan said softly: "Is it still necessary to wear a mask here?"

"Viper" smiled and said, "Aren't you also wearing a hat?"

Jin Mulan reached out and took off her bamboo hat, and "Viper" looked at her quietly.

Viper still didn't move. Jin Mulan laughed softly: "You are always so proud."

"Viper" said: "Maybe. But not in front of you."

Jin Mulan whispered: "Why?"

"Viper" said: "You know."

Jin Mulan threw herself into Viper's arms and whispered, "I miss you." Viper held her tightly in his arms.

Jin Mulan said softly: "My people have contacted Liu Jin according to Liu Jin's list. I'm afraid it will take some time."

"Viper" sighed softly and said nothing. Jin Mulan raised her head: "What's wrong? Why don't you say anything?" "Viper" said: "It's nothing. Do you want to be emperor?"

Jin Mulan said: "You don't like it?"

"Viper": "You are a woman!"

Jin Mulan pushed him away: "Isn't Wu Zetian also a woman?!"

"Viper" sighed softly again: "I would rather be with you, living in isolation, living like a wild crane in idle clouds."

Jin Mulan said: "I know that you did all this for me."

"Viper" was silent for a long time and then said: "I hope all this is not in vain and will not be in vain."

Jin Mulan said: "If one day, I fail, will you abandon me?"

Viper replied, "No."

Jin Mulan asked: "What if I die?"

"Viper" said: "No one can kill you except me. In other words, if you want to kill you, you must kill me first."

Jin Mulan smiled delicately: "Arrogant devil." She threw herself into the arms of "Viper".

……

Zhang Yang sneaked into the hotel and found that Di Renjie and others were not there. It seemed that they had paid a private visit incognito. This Mr. Di was really not afraid of death.

After the two evil men came back, they said, "The jade pendant has been sent over."

Evilai asked in confusion: "Master, why did you give them the jade pendant?"

Zhang Yang smiled and said, "The jade pendant itself is fake and unimportant, but the words on it are very important."

"The person behind Tianbao Silver is very interesting and should be good-looking. So I want to meet him. I hope he can be our help instead of delaying the problem for us."

"I understand, Master."

"Go and have a rest."
