Chapter 298: Wild Ridge
In the middle of the night, when he was asleep, the door was suddenly opened, and the sound of slight footsteps approached the head of the bed, and Qin Yan also woke up at this time.
Seeing that it was Ye Piaoling, Qin Yan relieved his mind and was secretly dissatisfied with his vigilance. It seems that the spiritual sense has indeed been seriously injured, so that his reaction has been too slow, if it is someone with ulterior motives who leans over, I am afraid that it will be difficult for Young Master Ben to avoid this sneak attack.
Ye Piaoling walked closer, saw Qin Yan's face clearly by the moonlight, and said in surprise: "Brother Han, you didn't sleep?"
"No, just woke up. Qin Yan yawned and said with a sleepy face, "Brother Ye doesn't sleep in the middle of the night, what's the matter with me?" He suddenly thought of a possibility, suddenly woke up, curled up and shrank back, and said, "Brother Ye, you don't want to...... No, no, no, don't!"
"What are you thinking?" Ye Piaoling looked at his reaction suspiciously, and then also thought of a certain aspect, Jun's face was slightly red, and he shouted, "Who told you to think crookedly! Also, you want to call me Brother Ye! Forget it, I don't have time to talk to you, hurry up, we're leaving!"
"Ah, how can you walk ...... at this time?"
At this time, Liu Wanyun's soft voice came from outside the door, and Ye Piaoling said, "We are waiting for you downstairs." Then he turned and walked out.
Qin Yan didn't understand why Liu Wanyun wanted to leave at this time, for those who wanted to deal with them, it would be more convenient to start at night. But he didn't think much about it, since Liu Wanyun had already made a decision, he just had to follow.
He got dressed and walked briskly downstairs.
Liu Wanyun and Ye Piaoling each carried a burden and were waiting for him at the staircase. Qin Yan saw them and was about to speak, but saw Liu Wanyun put her finger to her lips and made a silent gesture. When Qin Yan walked in front of him, Liu Wanyun whispered in his ear: "Don't make a sound, follow me." ”
With that, she led the two of them around the corridor and into the backyard.
The backyard was barren and uneven, but there were still four or five guards guarding it. The three of them were all light-armed warriors, carefully avoiding the patrols of these guards, and climbed over the wall one after another.
The servants were silent, ran all the way, ran through several streets, until they were out of the boundary of Qixingzhuang, and then went south for more than 20 miles, along the more and more rugged roads, to a desolate mountain field. With such an intensity of running, Liu Wanyun and Qin Yan were fine, but Ye Piaoling was so tired that he was out of breath, so he had to stop and rest for a while.
"Where is this going?"
"I don't know. As long as I can get rid of those people!"
"Is that now a throw-off?"
"I don't know. ”
Qin Yan looked around. At this time they were on a desolate hillside, and near them was a vast wilderness, with high peaks and deep streams, casting a great blue-black shadow in the night, surrounded by weeds and no people. The pale moonlight shrouded through the clouds, giving the field an eerie smell, like a veil of gray.
In the bleak and lonely atmosphere, only Ye Piaoling's deliberately suppressed wheezing voice remained. Qin Yan raised his eyes and looked into the distance, seeing that the direction they came in was foggy, and there was no sign of the enemy chasing them.
"It seems like it's really getting rid of them. ”
"Hmm. Liu Wanyun nodded, and then fell silent again.
There was a dead silence nearby, and the occasional flying bird seemed to sense the particularly strong gloomy resentment here, and hurriedly passed by, not daring to make a sound. At this time, Ye Piaoling suddenly broke the dull atmosphere with a voice: "Hey, look over there, it seems that there is a family!" He stretched out his hand and pointed to the south, Qin Yan and the two looked at it, and sure enough, they saw a village looming in the mist in the distance of the mountains, which happened to be covered by the shadow of the Black Mountain, if it wasn't for Ye Piaoling pointing it out, it would be really difficult to notice this place.
"Let's go over and take a rest!" Ye Piao looked at Liu Wanyun with zero eyes, he was really tired from being pampered since he was a child, and he just looked forward to finding a bed to lie on it.
Liu Wanyun was noncommittal, she looked at Qin Yan and asked, "Master Han, what do you think?"
Qin Yan hesitated. It's not impossible to encounter a small village in this kind of wilderness, but no matter how you look at it, it feels a little weird, shouldn't it be a trick like a mountain spirit and fox demon? If you follow his idea, you can just find a place to meditate and rest until dawn, but seeing Ye Piaoling's tired state of almost sticking out his tongue, he said sympathetically: "I follow your wishes." ”
"Then hurry over!" Ye Piaoling grabbed Liu Wanyun's hand, dragged her and walked down the slope.
Qin Yan walked behind them, watching the two people in front of him getting closer and closer to the village, and their bodies were about to fall into the shadows of the mansion behind the mist and mist, and a feeling of inappropriateness suddenly rose in his heart.
He paused in his steps, and just wanted to call out to stop the two people in front of him, but the inexplicable feeling in his heart came and went quickly, and soon dissipated without a trace. He felt that there was no good reason to stop it, and with Liu Wanyun's Diyuan level skills, ordinary mountain spirits and fox demons were not enough for her to fight.
He laughed to himself. Since the first battle of Cen Guanling, he has some suspicious illusions, but his soul consciousness has been seriously damaged, and most of his intuition has turned out to be a fallacy afterwards, so don't say it today!
He followed Liu Wanyun with brisk steps, passing through the middle of the village. The wind in the middle of the winter night was uncomfortable, they walked quickly to a large mansion, Liu Wanyun motioned for the two to wait behind, and then walked forward and knocked on the door knocker, and said softly: "Is there anyone inside?"
The soft sound was abrupt in the quiet of the night, breaking the sleeping village. After a few breaths, I only heard the sound of rattling the door, and then I saw a few bits of light coming through the crack in the door, and then a faint shadow appeared, making an old voice: "Is it a guest from afar? Please come in, my lord has always thought that this place is too deserted, and it is rare for a distinguished guest to come to the door, come in quickly! Ngawang, go and inform the master!"
Ye Piaoling walked into the courtyard excitedly and said, "Thank you, old man, in fact, don't disturb your master, we just want to stay here for one night, as long as there is a spare bed." ”
The old servant, whose face was as pale as his voice, said: "Your guests have come from afar, how dare the old slave slack off." The lord had already ordered that as long as a guest came, he would be informed immediately......"
At this time, I heard a deep voice coming from the house: "Lao Zhao, where are the distinguished guests? Quick, hold the lamp, I want to greet you personally! Come, hurry up and prepare a meal, the guests have been gone for most of the night, they must be hungry!"
The three of them followed the prestige and saw a wealthy outsider approaching with the support of two thin servants.
