Words, the words of an oath.
Through this word, Gao Jing could guess who this mother and daughter were, not to mention that the woman had asked him about Yan Lu.
The woman should be the Startling Salamander, the Heaven-ranked assassin of the Net. She held the Startling Salamander Sword and was pregnant with Wei Wuji's child after assassinating Lord Xinling.
Later, he met the Nameless Sword Saint and was awakened by Nameless's life. He began to escape the net and live for himself.
After Nameless died, the Startling Salamander must have sent Yan Lu to the Small Sage Manor, where it was hunted down by the net. It must have given birth to Yan in the blood rain and mud, and then hid in the territory of Qi State.
After all, the State of Qi was the furthest away from the State of Qin. Moreover, the State of Qi was a place where Confucianism prevailed and belonged to the sphere of influence of the small Sage Manor.
But now, it seemed that his whereabouts had been exposed.
This trip to the Great Marsh Mountain of Chu should be to hide in a farmer's house.
……
Ever since Gao Jing's " concentration " had deepened, especially after he had cultivated the Great Spirit, he had discovered that he could let others see the contents of his books through the Great Spirit.
As for what to watch, it was all up to Gao Jing.
He had only discovered this after leaving the Little Sage Manor, so even Xun Zi did not know about it.
With Yan in his arms, Gao Jing opened the book in front of Yan.
It was a blank page, but Yan was reading it with great interest. As he read, he giggled.
Gao Jing didn't have a good feeling.
He needed to rely on the Great Spirit to maintain it. The longer others looked at it, the more his Great Spirit would be consumed.
After watching an episode of " Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf," Gao Jing decisively closed the book and secretly exhaled.
Yan turned her head unhappily, her big eyes watery."Brother, I still want to see it."
"You can't just watch, you have to learn." Gao Jing said seriously.”
"Learn?" Yan bit her little finger and blinked her eyes. Suddenly, she sang,"" Pleasant Goat, Beautiful Goat, Lazy Goat, Flirting Goat, Slow Goat, Soft Goat…"
The tune was crisp and melodious, and it was even better than the original.
Gao Jing looked at her in surprise.
As expected, there were many monsters in this world!
He was only two years old, right? He remembered it after hearing it once?
The curtain of the carriage was suddenly pulled open, revealing a stunning and refined face. His face was still cold as he looked at the strange emphasis on his daughter's strong point, and then looked at Gao Jing with a strange expression.
Gao Jing looked back helplessly.
Shocking Salamander carried Yan back into the carriage.
"What are you singing?" A faint question came from inside the car.”
"There are many strange sheep and wolves in my book. They can talk and sing…"
"In a book?"
"Yeah, the paintings in the book can move…"
"Don't talk nonsense."
"I didn't…"
“……”
……
When they passed by a town, Gao Jing only bought some food and did not stay in the town. He left the town directly.
When it was dark, they would camp in the wild.
He lit a bonfire and placed a pot on top of it. Gao Jing cooked food while reading a book.
Startling Salamander came over silently and sat on the other side of the bonfire. He looked at Gao Jing and said,""Why didn't you stay in town?”
Gao Jing stared at the book and said casually,""The more people you come into contact with, the easier it is to expose yourself.”
"Do you know who I am?" The Startling Salamander was silent for a moment.”
"Have you heard of this saying: Confucian scholars do not go out, know the world.”
"No!" "If that's the case, why are you still traveling?" The Startling Salamander's voice was a little cold.”
" Uh…" Gao Jing closed the book and said calmly,""I mean no harm."
"I know. Otherwise, you would already be dead.”"But this doesn't explain how you know me."”
"Alright, let me think about where to start.”
Gao Jing thought for a moment and said,"First of all, it's strange for a woman to go out with a child."”
"What's so strange about that?"
"Qi State hasn't experienced war for decades, so naturally, there won't be a wife bringing her child to visit her husband. Moreover, you're so beautiful and have the confidence to walk alone with a child. This shows that you have enough confidence and have martial arts to protect yourself. You're a Jianghu person.”
"So what?"
"In the martial world, one can't help oneself. The reason why you escaped with the child is naturally because you were hunted down because of something in the past…You're hiding from being hunted down.”
"Your martial arts skills are very high, and there aren't many organizations in the martial world that can force you to flee from Qi. The Hundred Schools of Philosophers have to give face to the Confucians, so it naturally won't be them…After counting them all, there's only one net left.”
"The assassins of the Network are divided into 'Heavenly Slaughter, Earth Extinction, Demons and Monsters'. Looking at Yan's age, you can hide for at least two years under the pursuit of the Network. Ordinary women can't do this."”
"The Network is an assassin organization, but it is also the knife in the hands of the politicians of the State of Qin. Even if it is an assassination, the target will only be the influential ministers of various countries, and will not specifically target a woman…"
" The only explanation is that you were once a member of the Network…Coincidentally, I know that Yue Ba has a sword called the Frightening Salamander. It is used to swim across the sea, and the whale salamander goes deep into it. Women are of the Yin and Water element. Compared to men, women are more likely to unleash the Frightening Salamander Sword to its limits…"
As Gao Jing explained, the Startling Salamander remained silent. It looked at Gao Jing as if it was hiding something.
After Gao Jing finished speaking, Startling Salamander said,"" All the scholarly disciples are like you…so…"
She didn't know how to describe it.
"Insight?"
Gao Jing smiled proudly and said frankly,""Don't worry, I only admire your beauty. I don't have any ill intentions, and I also pity Xiaoyan. No matter how much sin and hatred there is, it has nothing to do with her.”
"…You're too young."
Gao Jing's expression froze.
"No matter what, thank you." Startling Salamander got up and prepared to return to the carriage.
Gao Jing pointed at the pot and said,""It's almost cooked. Bring it over to eat.”
