The companion whispered: "There are indeed some things that need to go to the shop to ask the shopkeeper, in fact, the young master told me before I left that I must go when I come back from completing the task." Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ”

The guard was stunned for a moment, and after pausing for a moment on his companion's face, he subconsciously asked, "What do you need to instruct?" ”

He looked at his companion, his brows furrowed, and after thinking about it, he raised his head: "Did the young master say that if something happens, someone will come to the town to inquire about his whereabouts?"

Some guards were a little unsure of this possibility, so they asked in a low voice, "Is it the case that the shopkeeper was instructed to try to conceal it?" ”

"That's right, you're right!"

The companion nodded when he heard this.

The change they mentioned naturally refers to the new situation in the carriage that transported Miss Hua before arriving in Suzhou.

In case Miss Hana runs away and re-answers how to deal with the North Land coming to find her!

After saying a few words, the companion began to put his head down and tidy up his things.

After a while, the corner of his companion's eyes glanced at the two guards in the room, and then said in an affirmative tone: "Even you can think of it, the shopkeeper must not reveal it."

He said in a calm tone: "We can find out about the shop in Northland Town, but outsiders in the house where the young master lives can't easily inquire about it. ”

"As long as the shopkeeper is tight, even if Miss Hua can find a shop in the town, it won't be of much use."

Hearing this, the other two guards looked at each other.

This kind of style is indeed the consistent style of his own young master.

Any clues that might find him were artificially cut off, just to prevent the other party from disturbing him.

It sounds like the young master's opinion of that Miss Hua in his eyes is simply disturbing!

The companion rested for a while, looked at the other two people in the room and said, "Miss Hua gave a letter before she walked into the car, and now she is carrying it with me." ”

He said with a late question in his tone: "According to your opinion, do you think I should send it now, or wait until dawn to show it to the young master?" ”

"Didn't you go to Xiaolou when you came back just now?"

The guard was silent for a moment, then looked up at him, his tone equally suspicious.

The companion smiled bitterly: "It's not because I met the cook in the outer courtyard as soon as I came back. ”

"I heard him say that the young master is in a bad mood, don't go to the small building to disturb, otherwise it may"

The companion stopped the topic and thought for a while before continuing: "I really didn't think about it! ”

"When I met the cook in the outer courtyard, I heard him talk about it, saying that the young master was painting upstairs, do you two know?"

"Have you ever been to Xiaolou tonight?"

The companion hesitated for a moment and then looked at them and asked.

The other two people in the room shook their heads and remained silent.

The two of them glanced at each other, and one of them answered, "We've been walking around the yard, and we've seen the food deliverer sent away before." ”

The guard pondered for a moment and persuaded, "Since you have the letter in your hand, I think it is better to send it over in time for the young master to see." ”

"Although our young master doesn't like to see that person, I can't guarantee that there is something important in the letter that mentions what he is interested in!"

There was a hint of hesitation in the guard's tone, but the meaning was already clear!

After hearing this, the companion immediately responded: "I didn't dare to send it directly to Xiaolou before, because I was worried about disturbing the young master, nothing else." ”

"I stood outside for a while, wondering whether I should send it or not."

He braved the cold wind and returned to the house, and before he saw his companion, he heard the story that the food delivered by his subordinates was returned.

According to his understanding, he knew that once his young master wanted to be quiet, he would definitely not want others to disturb him, so he hesitated and didn't go to Xiaolou to deliver the letter first.

"I guess you two should be back, so I'm going to come back and discuss it with you two first."

The companion pursed his lips, and then said decisively: "Since you two agree on the same page, I will go immediately!" ”

Seeing that his companion walked to the door and was about to push the door out, the guard's heart moved, and he couldn't help but step forward and whisper a word.

"Don't go upstairs, you still have to ask if you can go up properly."

The companion nodded: "Okay, I remember!" ”

Pushing open the door, it was freezing outside.

It was late at night, and the whole house was so quiet that I couldn't hear the footsteps of the rest except the wind.

The late returning guard walked along the path to the bottom of the small building in the backyard, hesitated for a moment, and pushed the door open.

Upstairs in the small building, in addition to the study, is the room where the young master lives in his own house.

He went up the stairs, and when he was about to reach the second floor, he called his little master.

Immediately after hearing the answer from above, the guard hurriedly walked up.

The man inside was sitting at the table.

On the huge table in the study, a piece of paper was neatly spread.

The satellite line swept over, and what he saw was an unfolded picture scroll, and at a distance, what he saw seemed to be a landscape map.

The boy sat sideways, facing the window, looking intently at the place marked on the map.

The guard raised his head and looked at the person sitting at the table holding a paintbrush in his hand, and in the dark shadows, the silhouette of the young man was very handsome, and the scene of painting was even more pleasing to the eye.

The guard secretly said in his heart, sure enough, the people below were right, his young master was indeed painting.

In the dead of night, the weather is cold, and the young master can still have such a good interest, is it because he wants to be quiet?

After all, there are too many complicated things.

It wasn't until the guard approached that he realized that his judgment had been a little wrong just now.

The piece of paper spread out on the table was not a landscape painting, but an unfolded map.

The little master of his own family is not drawing for leisure or to adjust his mood, but carefully drawing some of the details on the map.

The guard froze, and his gaze was fixed again, and he could see that the map on the table looked very old.

The young man glanced at him, looked at the guard and asked in a deep voice, "You have already sent people away?" Everything is done? ”

"Well, it's all in order," replied the guard, standing up straight, "Miss Hua should be about to reach the halfway post by now!" ”

The guard lowered his head and no longer looked at the little master in front of him.

His gaze swept over the map several times, and he knew in his heart that it was a topographic map of the Northlands.

I heard that the origin of the map was obtained by two of his companions who had worked hard to get it according to clues.

As for the location, I heard that I got it from the calligraphy and painting shop in the town.

The two companions also told him that the shopkeeper was very stubborn, and that they had to spend a lot of money to get it.

They also said that they were more detailed than any topographic map of the Northlands they had ever seen.

The distance of the guards was not enough to observe them closely, but I had a preconceived impression from listening to the descriptions of my companions.

At this moment, the statement was confirmed, and he already knew a rough idea in his heart.

The boy continued to draw on the paper with his head down, and after a moment put down the pen, looked at the guard, and said, "Do you have anything else?" ”

The guard walked in, took out the letter that Miss Hua handed him before getting into the car at the time of parting, and handed it over with both hands.

The young man didn't take it directly, but looked at him in surprise and asked, "What letter?" ”

"Yes, Miss Hua Jia's letter to the young master, I gave it before leaving."

The guard's expression was a little apprehensive, and he didn't know how his young master would react!

He quietly complained in his heart, if it weren't for the urging of his companions, it would actually be better to wait for tomorrow morning to send it!

In case, if the young master loses his temper after seeing it, there is no one else here at the moment.

If you can't dissipate your anger for a while, the young master will definitely be angry at himself.

The young man stood up calmly and took the envelope, opened it and read it, walked back and forth in the room a few times, looked at the guard and asked, "What else did she say?" ”

The guard thought about it again, and re-said what Miss Hua said before she got into the car before leaving to her young master.

"Leeway?" A cold smile appeared on the corner of the young man's lips: "If you don't investigate what happened in the town, it's just for her!" ”

The guard raised his head with apprehensive eyes and quickly glanced at his young master, the meaning behind this sentence happened to be understood by him.

The young master really didn't reason with Miss Hua about what happened in the town.

Although the clues point to something related to her, and even people from the local government have been in contact.

Guarding the heart of the road, maybe this is what the young master means when he says leaving room for it!

If you really have to investigate carefully, how could that son disappear for no reason in the town!

The timing was too coincidental, and they came together, but the young master didn't want to delve into the connection.

What the young master wants to do at present is to find the whereabouts of that young man as soon as possible and make sure that the other party is safe and sound.

The guard looked at his young master, and his gaze fell on the other party's face several times.

He had been thinking about it since the way back, and even when he had just arrived at the house where he lived with his companions, a thought had popped into his head from time to time.

If you want to ask the young master, the time at this moment is actually the most suitable.

There were no idlers around, and there were not even any companions who were causing trouble.

Except for the two of them, there would be no third person in the study who knew about the conversation.

The guard moved his thoughts, the words came to his lips, looked at the little master who sat down at the table and threw the letter away, and asked in a low voice: "Young master, if you find that son, the other party is all right, do you plan to bring him back to Xilanan?" ”

The young man was stunned, and for a moment raised his head and stared at the guard in a daze.

"Young Master, if he is also willing to go to the south, do you plan to take him away?"

The guard mustered up the courage to repeat it.

However, the boy looked at him and lost his voice for a moment.

The boy wondered if that guy Xiaoling was in the barracks and whether he was safe, yes! He'd thought about it all!

He also thought about what he was going to do next, how to find Xiaoling's traces and even bother to get a map of the Northland.

Take him to the south?! This is something that teenagers rarely think about before.

But now, when the guard suddenly mentioned it, he actually had an indescribable complicated feeling.

The young man's mood was very conflicted, and two different voices in his heart sounded at the same time.

What if you find that guy and leave with him? Take him to the south? The idea is gradually expanding!

The guard's expression became uneasy again, and his lowered hand couldn't help but grasp the corners of his robes.

In his opinion, the silence of his little master means another possibility in a sense.

The young master didn't respond in denial, did he acquiesce?

The tent in the middle of the camp was lit all night.

In the middle of the night, the lights of the surrounding tents were extinguished, but they were still lit.

The figure outside the tent lingered several times in succession, and finally couldn't help but walk over.

Chen Xiang resisted the pressure of disturbing in the middle of the night and might be punished by the general, and went to General Han's camp to inquire.

He wondered so hard that he wanted to know where that calm-looking companion had come from.

The man did get into the car with Chen Xiang and them at the assembly place, and then was sent to the recruit training camp in the valley, just like Chen Xiang.

But before this, at least among the people under General Gu, Chen Xiang had never heard of the existence of this person.

If the other party's qualifications are mediocre, then naturally there is nothing unusual.

However, from the perspective of his "insider", that person's skills are not lost to anyone under General Gu at all.

Or, if the other party hides something, the strength may be far superior to those people.

A master with a mysterious origin!

Chen Xiang's thoughts were messy, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that the doubts in his heart were gradually expanding!

He wanted to know the exact answer, and asking General Han was undoubtedly the most convenient and reliable way, which was much better than listening to the rumors of the camp.

Ask where the other party's token came from?

Chen Xiang said in his heart As long as he mentions the scene just now, if there is something greasy in it, the general will definitely not ignore it!

The three of them walked to a place near a mountain stream and stopped on their way.

The fog here is so steamy that even if it snows, it doesn't accumulate on the ground, and it seems that the springs in this area don't freeze in winter.

"Lord, there is something strange about this path we are taking, it seems that something is wrong?"

The guard looked at the dense forest in front of him, and a trace of confusion flashed in his eyes.

Tianfang was leaning against a large tree nearby.

Hearing this, he stretched out his finger and rubbed his eyebrows, and said with a little tiredness: "The people in the village can't lie, the only possibility is that we haven't found the right way." ”

The guard stood there, his eyes even more dazed, and said, "Lord, we have all seen the map, and the map clearly indicates that this area is a forest. ”

"I just think it's a little strange," he continued, after a pause, "It stands to reason that now it's getting dark, and I should be able to get out!" ”

The guard looked at his companion and said in an affirmative tone, "According to the map, there should be a mountain road ahead." ”

"Looking at it now, why do you feel like you can't go out of this forest!"

Hearing this, the companion chimed in: "That's right, it's like we're locked up in this forest!" ”

"Can we find another way?" To be continued.
