The night was getting deeper, and the forest was silent.

Qi Qi was still meditating, his mind was not completely immersed in meditation, but he still paid attention to the situation in the outside world.

Suddenly, a movement from his right alarmed him, and he opened his eyes and looked at Jinluan, who had woken up at some point.

Jin Luan said, "You rest, I'll replace you." ”

Qi Qi shook his head.

Jin Luan asked a little stunned, "Didn't you say that you want me to rest first, and replace me when I'm tired?"

Qi Qi smiled and shook his head, "Of course you can change it, but not now." I discussed with Zhao Gang before the night, and he will come in the second half of the night this time. ”

"I see, I'm going to be wrong," Jin Luan said.

"It's okay," Qi Qi waved his hand, and then asked with a smile, "Do you think I'm the kind of person who breaks my word?"

"Of course not!" Jin Luan vetoed without thinking, "You are the most gentlemanly person I have ever met, I believe you will not break your word!"

Qi Qi couldn't help but quip, "But who is still questioning me?"

"That doesn't count!" Jin Luan said.

"What is that?" Qi Qi asked.

"That's... That's counting... I'm in a hurry, then I'm in a hurry, okay?" Jin Luan grinned, revealing a row of white teeth.

Seeing Jinluan smiling so playfully, Qi Qi couldn't help but lose his mind for a moment, and when he came back to his senses, he looked at Jinluan's eyes, and there was already a trace of indescribable and inexplicable changes.

"Hey, why are you in a daze?" Jin Luan crawled in front of Qi Qi, who was sitting on the grass, and stretched out his hand and waved in front of Qi Qi.

Qi Qi came back to his senses and said, "You continue to rest, I'll wait for Zhao Gang to wake up." ”

Jin Luan glanced at Zhao Gang not far behind Qi Qi, Zhao Gang was sleeping soundly at this time, still snoring, with a naïve face, and he didn't mean to wake up.

She said, "I'd better come, don't count on him, sleep like a dead pig!"

Qi Qi heard Jinluan say this, and also looked behind him, and found that Zhao Gang did sleep very well as Jinluan said, but he did not promise Jinluan because of this, "After all, something like that happened during the day, and it is normal to sleep deeply, I'll just wait, you can continue to sleep." ”

"You go and rest, don't be so stubborn, okay?" Jin Luan pleaded glutinously.

Saying this, Jin Luan just had the mentality of trying, in her eyes, Qi Qi is a maverick, he will unswervingly implement the ideas in his heart, without any interference from anyone.

Although she and Qi Qi have known each other for less than two days, this does not prevent her from knowing Qi Qi and understanding Qi Qi.

Many times, it only takes a day to know what a person really looks like.

Of course, there are many times that you can't see through a person in a lifetime.

But unexpectedly, Qi Qi nodded and agreed.

Jin Luan's mouth opened wide in surprise, and the divine light in his apricot eyes flickered like water waves.

Qi Qi didn't know why he agreed, he knew very well that his original idea in his heart was to refuse, but after he said it, it meant something else.

But before he could think about the ins and outs of this, he saw the delicate appearance of Jinluan in front of him.

Looking at Jinluan like this, Qi Qi was stunned, and a trace of joy surged inexplicably in his heart, and he couldn't help but be in a bad mood because of the wanton thoughts that surged up before the night.

So the two of them stared blankly, motionless, as if time had stood still.

"Ahem..."

A somewhat unnatural coughing sound broke the silence, it was Zhao Gang who woke up, and he couldn't help but be a little annoyed when he saw Qi Qi and Jin Luan being less than a zhang away from him.

Qi Qi and Jin Luan woke up and retracted their gazes in embarrassment.

Qi Qi looked at Zhao Gang and stammered, "You... When did you wake up?"

Zhao Gang rolled his eyes, "Just woke up." ”

Jin Luan snickered on the side.

Qi Qi said, "Then I'll... Sleep first, Brother Zhao Gang, you come to the vigil. ”

"Well, Brother Qi Qi, let's sleep, I've worked hard for you," Zhao Gang nodded.

Qi Qi turned his head to look at Jinluan and said, "I slept." ”

"Hmm," Jin Luan nodded, returning to his place.

Qi Qi also lay on the straw mat, closed his eyes, thinking about what happened just now, he always felt a little weird, but now in retrospect, it was full of unreality and inexplicability.

What's wrong with him?

On the other side, Jin Luan was also lying on the straw mat, with his back to Qi Qi, thinking of what happened just now, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl, and his heart was sweet.

Later, Qi Qi and Jin Luan fell asleep one after another, and Zhao Gang, who was keeping vigil, looked at the peaceful sleeping posture of the two, and there was deep meaning in his eyes......

······

Dragon dart line, wings.

Late at night, the yard was quiet.

The bird lay on the couch, tossing and turning, and it was difficult to sleep. After Qi Qi left, her heart seemed to be missing a reassuring needle, and she was uneasy. When he is there, no matter how many unknown dangers lurk in this dart line, she will not be afraid, she knows that Qi Qi can solve it.

But after Qi Qi left, this peace of mind no longer existed. Especially during the day, Guan Yuntian and others asked her to go to the hall to play the qin, and the way they looked at her, as well as the faint and vague deep meaning, made her extremely uncomfortable, and even aggravated the uneasiness in her heart.

She was now pushed into the abyss, and the endless darkness was pulling at her forever.

She kept falling... Fall... Endless...

Only when she was lying on the couch in the middle of the night, smelling the residual smell of Qi Qi on the couch, she could barely feel a trace of relief, at that time, the night outside the window seemed to be no longer dark, and the moonlight spilling into the room seemed to be stronger...

Come back, Qi Qi...

I'm so scared.

······

Two hours later, the sky was already gray, Qi Qi and Jinluan woke up one after another, eating dry food and drinking water with Zhao Gang.

Jin Luan secretly looked at Qi Qi from time to time, looking at the side face that was as carefully carved as a sculpture, and his heart was like a deer colliding with each other.

It's a pity that she never saw Qi Qi's panicked blushing appearance last night, and Qi Qi returned to his previous tranquil and elegant, breezy and moonlight.

But even then, it was satisfied.

The reason why I hope to see Qi Qi like that again is because of that sense of contrast. A person who has always been plain and cold, suddenly shows a flustered and shy side, and an impossible thing happens, how can people not make ripples?

Just like the men she had met before talking about women, women who were naturally soft were certainly pleasing, but even more pleasing were those women who were originally as cold as icebergs, and after being conquered by men, they showed their hot side on the couch or in other places.

This sense of contrast is addictive, but also gives rise to a sense of conquest in people's hearts.

Soon, when all three of them had finished eating, they took their goods and continued on their way.

On the road, Zhao Gang rode a carriage pulling goods, and was escorted behind, while Qi Qi and Jinluan were in front, one left and one right.

They were silent along the way, and just like that, four days later, the three of them arrived outside the castle.

In the distance, the outline of the city wall is clearly visible, and people pour into the city gate from all directions, like a sea of rivers.

When passing through the city inspection, Zhao Gang reported the name of Nanxun Longteng and the He family to which the goods in the box belonged, so he successfully cleared customs and entered the city.

The guards did not even carry out routine searches against Zhao Gang and others, because they were working for the Wang family in Nanxun, and the Wang family had a deep relationship with the Hou Mansion, and the entire Jiangnan Province was under the jurisdiction of the Hou Mansion.

After entering the city, the first thing Zhao Gang did was to deliver the goods to their destination, the Wang family's shop in Guancheng. The Wang family heard that Long Teng had killed and injured twenty-nine brothers for sending this dart, and in order to apologize, they decided to increase the reward of Long Teng's dart by half.

Zhao Gang just smiled at this, even if the remuneration was doubled, it was not enough to comfort Long Teng's twenty-nine dead brothers.

Zhao Gang said to Qi Qi that the boat and car were tiring, and he would repair in this city for two days before returning to Nanxun, and Qi Qi had no objection.

And the Wang family saw that Zhao Gang had this intention, so they took the initiative to invite them to simply live in the mansion, and the mansion would comfort them.

There is no reason to refuse the free first-class food and lodging, and in the end, Zhao Gang and Qi Qi lived in the mansion, and the captured Liema Er's family was locked up in the firewood room and ordered to be guarded.
