Chapter XXVI
"Driving--"
The sound of horses' hooves rattled my already confused thoughts.
I shared a horse with Yuwen Qiye and chased him north.
The thought of the scheming star slave being abducted by that mysterious woman, my heart was about to stand up, and I hurriedly urged: "Hurry up!"
"Drive!"
The scene in front of me quickly retreated in front of my eyes, and after a while, the horse's hooves stopped at the door of the Tianxiang Building.
I rolled over and dismounted, and rushed forward in a few steps, but was stopped by two strong men at the door.
I looked stunned: "Let me in!"
A strong man with a fierce face said: "Go away! This is a green building, and the girl's house is not accepted!"
"You ......"
Before he could say anything, he was stopped by Qi Ye: "My lady's younger brother has been addicted to women recently, and my mother-in-law is very worried. ”
The two of them looked at each other: "No, what if you two go in and make trouble?"
I was so anxious that I said angrily, "It's all your fault!
He laughed and said, "Why can you blame me for this? I didn't know that these things would happen to you when I held you." ”
I scolded: "I don't care, if you don't find him for me today, I want you to look good!"
He frowned slightly: "Why are you so unreasonable? I didn't lose him!"
"You!"
The strong man at the door saw that we were arguing, and he was immediately upset: "Okay, okay, you two hurry in! The two of them quarrel at the gate of the Qinglou, and there is no shame!"
I hurriedly dragged him in with a cigarette and ran in, for fear that they would find out that we were acting.
"Here," he handed me a silk scarf, "cover your face, it's full of men." ”
I took it and took it, and my eyes noticed that he was stunned for a moment.
There was no one in the hall, and several women were playing the lute on the water pavilion. I went up to the second floor again, but I was stopped by someone, because I didn't book a seat in advance, and the people at Accord said they wouldn't let us in.
"What should I do?" I looked at him anxiously, "why doesn't your status as a general work?"
Yuwen Qiye looked at the environment in the building, and there was nothing unusual in all directions, and suddenly a glimmer of light flashed in his eyes: "Could it be that we are chasing the wrong direction?" She didn't come back with Xingnu at all. She can't be faster than us as a woman!"
I immediately reacted: "Oops, they must still be in the mountains of Guiyuan Temple!"
The sun sets very early in the winter mountains, and when we arrived at Guiyuan Temple, the evening bell had already sounded in the courtyard.
I pulled over a monk who was cleaning the courtyard: "Master, have you ever seen a foreign woman with blue eyes, accompanied by a young man who doesn't talk much?"
The monk gave me a slight salute: "Amitabha, when the altar was opened today, the poor monk did see a donor from a foreign land, but the poor monk has never seen that donor has other donors around him. ”
"Thank you, Master Xie. I gave him a bow and looked out into the halls.
"The person you're looking for is going to that mountain!" When he was at a loss, another monk walked behind him.
He first saluted the monk who had just spoken to me: "Master. Then he turned to me and said, "The benefactor has gone over there with a good-looking benefactor." He pointed to the top of the mountain.
The twilight was low, and there was not a trace of human traffic in the mountains and forests.
"Amitabha, the monks don't speak, and they don't dare to deceive the donor. ”
I hesitated.
Yuwen Qiye took my hand: "Let's go, I'll accompany you to find it." With me, it's going to be fine. ”
I nodded, and followed him up the mountain.
There was silence all around.
"Do you know the name of this road?" Seeing that I was silent, he opened his mouth to try to divert my concern.
I pretended to be very curious: "I don't know what to say, you want to hear it?"
His beautiful voice spread in the empty mountain forest, and his echoes were everywhere:
"The name of this road is 'Acacia Li', and it is named because of its winding and rugged nature, which is like a thousand turns and turns like acacia. It is rumored that there was a scholar who lived in the mountains in the previous dynasty, and he loved an official lady in the city, but every time he went down the mountain, he was extremely rugged, and he could only see the young lady in the temple on the fifteenth day of the first month of every month. It wasn't until the young lady got married that the two of them had only seen each other a few times. The scholar at the end of the year was depressed and became a monk......"
I asked, "Does that woman like him? He's so stupid that he has unrequited love, and he actually went to become a monk when someone else marries him." ”
He shook his head: "No one knows what to do. After the scholar became a monk, he often returned to his former residence. Later, he became the presiding officer of the temple, and the path he stayed on every time he walked to the temple, and it became a good story by the world. ”
As I listened to him tell this story, I couldn't help but feel a little depressed: "How can such a sad story be called a good story?"
He bowed his head slightly: "Sauvignon Blanc, heart-inducing." There are eight hardships in life, but in fact, there is one more suffering, which is lovesickness. ”
His voice was very clear in the cool night, and my heart seemed to have been struck by something, so I had to remain silent and take care of the road under my feet.
Acacia was already rugged, and it was very difficult for me to walk side by side with him.
I was very close to him, shoulder to shoulder, and as I walked, my strength began to lose and my breath became disordered.
"There is no trace of popularity in this barren mountain, how dare a woman come to such a place with a star slave?
He walked up to me: "They should be nearby......"
"How do you ......"
"Shhhh......h......h
Suddenly, there was a gloomy wind in the mountains.
"Plop--" A few jays flew up from the treetops not far away, disturbing the calm of the mountain.
He stood in front of me, his expression frozen.
The wind stopped, and there was a dead silence all around......
"Brush--"
It's too late, it's too soon. Just as I was startling, a long arrow shot straight at me!
My eyes went dark, and a force dragged me over.
I was tightly held in my arms by Yuwen Qiye, and the sudden attack was unguarded, and the two of them rolled straight down the slope on the side.
In the midst of the whirlwind, I was protected in his arms without feeling a trace of pain.
Yuwen Qiye fell to a tree with me in his arms, his back against the thick roots, and he stopped abruptly.
He let out a muffled grunt, but he didn't let go of me in the slightest.
I was so frightened that I couldn't move, but I found that there was a cave next to me: "Yuwen Qiye, look there!"
I whispered a reminder that he had also discovered the cave, and when he looked up, he had not yet caught up.
He gritted his teeth, endured the pain in his shoulder, and escorted me into the cave, and the two of them fell heavily into it.
It was pitch black in the cave.
