Long Sword and Jun Wu

Chapter 68 Flirting
Murta narrowed his eyes slightly, clenched the two knives with both hands again, and swung them forward.

Gongsun Ling watched with trepidation. Although she had confidence in Pei Min, she was not sure about Murta's kung fu.

Pei Min spun around again, and the Xuanqing sword lightly cut across Murta's wrist.

The iron wristband split in two and fell to the ground with a "crack".

Murta paused for a moment, and glanced at his left wrist.

If it wasn't for Pei Min's mercy, it might have been his own hand that fell to the ground just now.

Murta gritted his teeth, still unbelieving, swung his two knives vigorously, and slashed at Pei Min with the left and right knives up and down.

Gongsun Ling clenched her hands in her sleeves, watching the two scimitars rushing towards Pei Min, she was so frightened that she didn't dare to blink.

Pei Min bent down to avoid the knife on his upper body, stepped on the left shock, Zi Ji sent the immortal, turned the hilt of the sword again and slashed at Murta's right knee.

Murta's right leg went numb and he knelt forward on one knee.

There is no wound, but the legs are no longer able to stand up.

Cold sweat broke out on Murta's forehead.He stood alone and raised his eyes to look at Pei Min, who looked back at him calmly.

Murta knew that he could stand up and fight back, but in fact it didn't make much sense. Although he didn't want to admit it, it was a fact.

Pei Min's swordsmanship is really superb. His double swords that have been in Khitan for many years are simply vulnerable to Pei Min's swordsmanship.

"I lost." Murta is a true warrior of Khitan. He has always dared to act bravely. He is not proud when he wins, and he will not play tricks when he loses.

Pei Min bent over and cupped his hands: "I've accepted."
Then he walked forward and stretched out his hands to help Murta up, whose legs were numb.

Murta was not pretentious, and jumped up with Pei Min's hand in his arms. After the numbness in his legs eased, he took a deep look at Pei Min and said, "Tomorrow we will set off together to Qianyun Mountain."
"Thank you, General." Pei Min sincerely thanked Murta, and admired his boldness and true temperament even more in his heart.

After Murta finished speaking, he took his subordinates and left. Some of the onlookers also dispersed, and some stayed behind to discuss, worrying whether the Khitan princess was going to marry a Tang Dynasty.

Gongsun Ling let out a big breath, she was so nervous that she forgot to breathe just now, she let go of her hands, and walked towards Pei Min with a smile.

"You're not hurt?"

Pei Min shook his head, looked at Gongsun Ling with a smile, "We can go get the "Xuanling Ice Soul". "
"There's no shadow yet! I haven't even seen a shadow yet. I just passed the level of Murta so far. Where is the ice tomb? I don't know what the danger is." Gongsun Ling is not very optimistic.

"It's okay, if there is any difficulty, I'll break through, and you'll be waiting for me." Having won Murta, Pei Min felt more confident.

Gongsun Ling raised her eyebrows, "Do I look like a person who stands by and watches?"

"No... that's not what I meant."
The two flirted in the arena as if no one else was around.

On the second day, Murta, Gongsun Ling, and Pei Min reported to Li Yuyu that they were going to the ice tomb in Qianyun Mountain to get the "Xuanling Ice Soul".

Li Tingmu wanted to follow him desperately, but Li Yuyu couldn't hold back his precious daughter's entanglement skills, so he nodded in agreement, and sent another team of guards to follow.

Outside the tent, Murta installed all the prepared tools, tents and drinking water on the horses, and gave Pei Min and each of them an animal fur coat to keep out the cold.

"Qianyun Mountain is towering into the clouds, the temperature on the mountain is extremely low, the ice does not melt, and it is not easy to go up the mountain. You have to be mentally prepared." Murta first warned the two that their trip might not be so smooth.

Gongsun Ling thought, I have to say that the Khitan people have experience in this area. If he and Pei Min went to Qianyun Mountain so rashly, they might be frozen to death before finding the ice tomb, let alone find Xuanling ice soul.

"Thank you General for your help." Pei Min sincerely thanked them. Originally, Murta could ignore them and let them go on their own, but he was still willing to go up the mountain with them with his escort.

"You're welcome, I'm not following you, I'm here to protect the princess." Murta said unceremoniously.

Pei Min was stunned by his straightforwardness for a moment, and Gongsun Ling burst out laughing.

"Brother Pei, will we know how to dig coffins this time? Does that count as tomb robbery?" Li Tingmu hopped over, with a slightly excited tone. He didn't think there was anything wrong with tomb robbery at all, and he wasn't afraid of any danger on the mountain.

Li Tingmu specially wore a bright red long-breasted jacket today, which made her complexion fair and tender Sai Xue.

It just so happens that Gongsunling's cape is also red. Comparing the two, Gongsunling is more bright and magnificent, like a little red in the green bushes on the grassland, like a scorching sun.

Thinking of this, Li Tingmu snorted softly, took Pei Min's arm and said, "Brother Pei, let's go."
Pei Min was very helpless, and wanted to try persuasion one last time: "Your Highness, it's better not to take risks, but stay in the tent?"
"Don't even think about abandoning me, I'll follow you." Li Tingmu wasn't shy at all.

Pei Min was blushed by her pun, and secretly glanced at Gongsun Ling, only to see that Gongsun Ling was packing his bags, smoothing the horses, and did not look at them any more.

Pei Min didn't know whether to be happy or sad, so he carefully pulled out his arms and pretended to pack the horse's luggage.

Fortunately, Murta and the guards were all ready and gave the order to set off, so that Pei Min could temporarily be freed from Li Tingmu's entanglement.

A group of more than a dozen people set off for Qianyun Mountain. The sky was as blue as washing, the ground was green and grassy, ​​and it was a peaceful scene.

The crowd galloped for most of the day, and stopped to rest by a small lake so that the horses could drink water and graze.

Murta took a few guards and Pei Min to go hunting.

"At our speed, we can reach Qianyun Mountain in about two days. There are few birds and animals on the mountain. We will hunt as much as possible in these two days to ensure that there is enough food on Qianyun Mountain." Murta said to Pei Min.

Pei Min nodded in agreement. He had little experience, so he was right to listen to them.

The eight of them hunted for an hour, almost returning with a full load.Pei Min has improved a lot in bow and arrow,

Murta admired it sincerely in his heart. After the truce and friendly relations between the two countries, there were many Datang people in Youzhou and Yingzhou who came and went to do business with Khitan. Along the way, there is no one who is an opponent of Murta, only Pei Min, who impresses him.

It's only a few days, and it's really a talent to be able to have this skill.

Pei Min didn't know the turmoil in Murta's heart, and showed Gongsun Ling with his hands full of prey, but was entangled by Li Tingmu again halfway.

Gongsun Ling silently went to the lake with the other guards to clean the prey, set up a fire, and put it on a rack to roast.

The food is roasted until it is oily and full of aroma.Li Tingmu is a princess, and she has someone to serve her. Pei Min was held by Li Tingmu and sat together, enjoying the service as well.

Gongsun Ling started to eat on his own.Don't even look at them the whole time.

　Seek to collect while jealous, ask for votes.
