Li Dazhuang suddenly sneezed, and then wrapped his clothes tightly. Although it was already the middle of winter, he was still wearing only long sleeves and a double coat.

"Got a cold?" the orange cat lying next to his arm raised his head and barked, then walked over to his chest and lay down, warming him with the temperature of his own body.

This man and a cat are located in a small col on the outskirts of the city, here is the northern suburb of Jiuyuan City, Jiuyuan was originally a city in the plateau zone, around its city, sparsely populated, many vast fields, in the field is a group of high and low mountain passes, occasionally a few criss-crossing high highways interspersed from this field, the field is divided into different shapes, different sizes of many pieces.

In the evening of this afternoon, Li Dazhuang and the orange cat finally arrived in Jiuyuan, but after arriving here, they looked at each other again with a blinded expression.

Because he was in the imperial capital before, he saw the clues left by Xu Guan, and the location indicated was Jiuyuan North. At this time, they arrived at Jiuyuan, and hurriedly passed through Jiuyuan City, came to the north of the city, and saw the endless wilderness.

"This, such a big piece, how to find it?" Li Dazhuang said in frustration.

"Don't worry, you can always find it. The orange cat pretended to be confident and said, he didn't have a good way, such a big field, only relying on the three words 'Jiuyuan North', but he really couldn't find it, but he couldn't panic, he couldn't seem helpless, otherwise Li Dazhuang would be even more depressed, this kid has a stupid brain, he has no opinions, and he has to set up a reliable image for him.

"Then how do we find it?" asked Li Dazhuang stubbornly. The two of them were already standing on the top of a small hill, looking to the north, and the large undulating hills showed two tones of light and dark under the light of the setting sun, the dark shadow was gray, and the bright side was warm yellow.

The orange cat looked at the sunset that was about to set, thought for a moment, and said, "It's getting dark, let's rest for the night first, and then look for it tomorrow morning." ”

"No, it doesn't. Li Dazhuang categorically refused: "Mr. Xu Guan was captured by an unknown enemy, life and death are uncertain, let's chase all the way hard, and finally arrived in the north of Jiuyuan, we should make persistent efforts, work harder, and find Mr. Xu Guan as soon as possible!" lowered his head and looked at the orange cat with eager eyes: "Can't stop!

"What are you anxious about? The orange cat sighed, and said in his heart, isn't there a good way for a while? Xu Guan only gave the information of 'Jiuyuan North', and now he has arrived in this Jiuyuan North, but such a large field, countless hills of high and low, how to find it, whether it is near the north of Jiuyuan City, or the north that has crossed this field, is not sure.

This ......

The orange cat looked at Li Dazhuang's somewhat tattered clothes, and the rush for days also made his face show a tired look, you must know that neither of them can drive, and there is no place to go to the whole car, so a considerable part of the journey is run by flesh feet. Occasionally, if you're lucky, you can catch a ride on a passing car that happens to be on the same road. However, it is not to stop other people's cars and then sit on them, but to see a vehicle driving in the same direction on the highway, so they jump on the roof of other people's cars, so that they turn in another direction, and they jump down again, while continuing to run and hurry, while looking for other cars along the way.

The orange cat comforted Li Dazhuang and said, "We have both worked so hard all the way, you are also tired......

"I'm not tired!" Li Dazhuang said stiffly.

"But I'm tired. I'm old, and I'm not as strong as you. You should be considerate of the elders. Let me rest and rest. "The orange cat is bitter.

"If you want to rest, when you find Mr. Xu Guan, let's have a good rest, now is really not the time to rest. Li Dazhuang squatted down, held the big fat head of the orange cat, looked at the eyes of the orange cat, and said seriously: "Senior Huangliang, listen to my advice." It's important to save people, 100,000 urgent. You can't be more ignorant than I am. ”

The orange cat smiled bitterly, he couldn't say anything about his suffering, and he became ignorant. If he said that he was okay for the time being, Li Dazhuang didn't know how to panic, and his reaction would definitely be ten times stronger than now.

The orange cat shrank its neck, broke its head out of Li Dazhuang's hands, shook its head again, and continued to say patiently: "Da Zhuang." You listen to me patiently. We rushed here all the way, it took a lot of physical strength, my true qi should also be cultivated, and a large part of your internal strength has also been consumed, so it should also be cultivated. ”

"I'm fine, it's more than enough to find someone. I can't use up my strength. Li Dazhuang clenched his fists.

"You think we're just looking for someone?" asked Orange Cat rhetorically.

"Isn't it?" Li Dazhuang touched the back of his head, and suddenly fell into his own suspicion, could it be that he wanted to miss something?

"Xu Guan was captured by the bad guys. Even if we find him, the bad guys will definitely not let us save Xu Guan smoothly. What the orange cat said made a lot of sense: "Then we will definitely have to fight with them at that time, and only by winning them can we save Xu Guan." If we lose, let alone save Xu Guan, even the two of us will be caught. ”

"Oh, that makes sense. Li Dazhuang nodded again and again.

"So we need to get some rest and regain our strength. You have to use your fullest state to fight against the bad guys who kidnapped Xu Guan, so that you have a chance to defeat them. ”

"I understand what you said. Li Dazhuang hesitated for a moment and then said, "However, wouldn't it be dangerous for Mr. Xu Guan to be caught by them? What if we only see one corpse after we find Mr. Xu Guan?"

"Probably not. The orange cat said this, but he didn't know the bottom in his heart: "They must have kept Xu Guan useful before they made so much effort to catch it, otherwise wouldn't it be easier to kill Xu Guan directly in the imperial capital?"

"You have a point. Li Dazhuang had no way to refute.

In this way, the two of them chose a small mountain col sheltered from the wind and stopped, and sat next to each other to rest and recuperate.

Li Dazhuang sat and rested halfway, but he was so sleepy that he couldn't support it, so he lay down and fell asleep. Suddenly sneezed again, the orange cat knew that the weather in the middle of winter was already cold, and this was a plateau in the north, and the climate was even drier and colder, worried that Li Dazhuang would catch a cold after falling asleep, so he got up and lay on Li Dazhuang's chest to warm him with his body.

"Huangliang seniors. Li Dazhuang spoke softly.

"Huh?" the orange cat looked down at Li Dazhuang below him.

"You're a little heavy, and I'm out of breath. ”

"Oh. The orange cat climbed down a little embarrassed, and heard the cold wind howling outside the small col, and occasionally a few wisps of wind came in through the gap between the cols, ruffling the orange cat's soft hair, "Don't fall asleep, you'll catch a cold." ”

"Hmm. Li Dazhuang sat up again and put on a posture of meditating and cultivating internal strength.

A man and a cat hid in a small col, and beyond the col were many other connected cols, which together formed the boundless plateau field, and above this field was a clear and bright night sky, with a crescent moon hanging high in the sky, and ten thousand stars.
