Chapter 59: Xie Nanhao runs in the rain
The moon shone high, glowing blue in a dark blue sky, and the moonlight poured down like rain, mixed with the dripping rain and fell to the ground. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Xiangyang has long been silent, and candles have been lit in several houses.
Outside the city gates, the city was deserted, the rain washed the muddy ground, and the roads became muddy.
The sound of the horses' hooves stepping into the dirt was particularly clear and loud on the empty mountain road.
"Drive-" Xie Nanhao quickly whipped his horse and shouted from time to time.
The rain was getting heavier and heavier, and there was a rumble in the sky, but Xie Nanhao didn't care at all.
His expression was unrecognizable in the darkness, but his entire face and body had already been soaked by the rain, and the rain that had slid down his face was clearly visible.
The horse's hooves clattered as they walked forward.
Hurry, hurry, hurry.
Xie Nanhao's heart is like an arrow, and he can't wait to fly to Xie Zhuoyan's side in the next moment.
After riding a horse towards the south for a few hours, Xie Nanhao suddenly tightened his reins and stopped.
There is a fork in the road ahead.
Xie Nanhao looked at the two roads and stood for a long time.
If it was to save Liu Tiequan, Xie Zhuoyan should have gone to Liu Tiequan's hometown Luozhuang Town, and if you look at it this way, she should go from the northeast road.
Xie Nanhao walked to the side of the road and squatted down to take a closer look.
It should have been raining when Zhuo Yan arrived here, but there was no horse's hoof print on this road, and it was still like it had just encountered water.
Xie Nanhao walked to the other side of the road again.
On the contrary, there was just a trace of a horse passing on this road, and it was still so late in this weather, there should be no one else except Xie Zhuoyan.
But Xie Nanhao couldn't understand why Luozhuang Town was in the northeast, so why Xie Zhuoyan was going to the northwest.
Xie Nanhao thought for a moment, then got on his horse and headed straight to the northwest.
Even if the roads were muddy and the weather was bad, the horses did not stop for a moment, and the people on the horses did not dare to slack off in the slightest.
After riding along the road for a short time, Xie Nanhao saw the fire not far away and rode slowly over.
It was a grass hut that had long been deserted, the doors and windows were long gone, and it looked like it was going to collapse in the next moment under the pouring rain.
Xie Nanhao dismounted and walked over, and a bonfire in the house was burning very vigorously.
Walking into the door, Xie Nanhao looked over.
There was a man sitting next to the campfire, rubbing his hands with his back bent, and baking clothes on a hanger next to him.
Xie Zhuoyan.
After Xie Nanhao saw that person's face clearly, he instantly felt that his throat was blocked, and he couldn't make a sound at all.
It's Xie Zhuoyan.
Finally found it.
Xie Nanhao smiled silently.
Xie Zhuoyan was on fire and slowly turned her head to look at the people outside the door.
Xie Zhuoyan had long sensed that someone was approaching, but she didn't expect that person to be Xie Nanhao.
I saw that his whole body was soaked, his hair was messy, the rain mixed with the mud ran down his cheeks, and his body looked much thinner at night.
Xie Zhuoyan stood up in surprise and called softly, "Seventh brother? ”
Xie Zhuoyan hurriedly ran over and helped Xie Nanhao to sit in.
"Why did Seventh Brother come here, it rained so hard and I don't know how to find a place to hide from the rain." Xie Zhuoyan said as she walked.
Xie Nanhao just lowered his head sideways and looked at Xie Zhuoyan with a slight smile.
"Take it off," Xie Zhuoyan stretched out her hand to remove Xie Nanhao's coat, turned around and hung it on the simple hanger, turned around and said, "It's cold, sit down and roast it." ”
Xie Nanhao nodded and sat down, the light of the bonfire shining on his face.
Xie Nanhao came all the way, and his worry and anxiety had already washed away his reason. He wanted to ask Xie Zhuoyan why she left without saying a word as soon as he met her, and why she risked her life alone to save Liu Tiequan.
But the moment he saw Xie Zhuoyan, Xie Nanhao couldn't ask anything, and at that moment Xie Nanhao already felt unprecedented peace of mind.
The heart that was carried fell to the ground, and it didn't matter what it was.
Xie Zhuoyan tidied up a little, flipped through the clothes on the hanger, and sat down next to Xie Nanhao.
"Is Brother Seven here to find me?" Xie Zhuoyan asked.
Xie Nanhao nodded: "Well, you came out alone, and the family is not at ease." ”
"Oh," Xie Zhuoyan nodded.
Will the people of the Xie family and the Gu family still worry about me?
But Xie Zhuoyan turned her head to look at Xie Nanhao, and when she saw his appearance, she knew that she had rushed all the way, otherwise she would not have found herself so quickly.
It should be Xie Nanhao who is worried.
The two of them sat together silently for a long time, and finally Xie Zhuoyan spoke: "It's me who didn't think it through, which made Seventh Brother worry." ”
Xie Zhuoyan thought that she had no worries, and no one would care even if she left directly, but she forgot that Xie Nanhao was the only one who would worry about herself.
Xie Nanhao's heart warmed when he heard this, he reached out and touched Xie Zhuoyan's head, and said softly, "It's okay if you're fine." ”
Xie Zhuoyan lowered her eyes and smiled.
"But," Xie Nanhao then asked, "Aren't you going to save Liu Tiequan?" ”
"So you know."
Xie Zhuoyan picked the firewood in the bonfire and said casually.
"But Luozhuang Town is not in this direction," Xie Nanhao said: "Did the thirteenth sister go wrong?" ”
"Well," Xie Zhuoyan put down the wooden stick in his hand and said, "It's naturally not okay to run after Liu Tiequan, now the people from Xu Mansion and Ma Tongju are also looking for him, and I can't deal with so many people alone." ”
If you walk along Luozhuang Town, it is inevitable to meet people from Ma Tongju and Xu Mansion, and it is inevitable that you will have to face each other at that time.
But now Xie Zhuoyan is not only crippled in her right hand, but also seriously injured, although she has a chance of winning against so many people, it is obviously not cost-effective.
Xie Nanhao was speechless.
He didn't know Xie Zhuoyan's thoughts, but at least now he knew that Xie Zhuoyan had his own way.
Xie Nanhao looked at Xie Zhuoyan beside her, her hair was almost dry, but there were still water droplets on her forehead and sideburns that were shining in the firelight.
Xie Nanhao frowned puzzled: "Why are you sweating?" ”
Now it was raining heavily, there were no doors and windows, and cold wind poured into the small grass house from time to time.
Obviously, this small campfire doesn't have much of a warm effect, so why not sweat when it's hot.
"It's nothing," Xie Zhuoyan said, raised her hand to wipe her sweat, and said, "It's impossible to travel now, let's deal with it here for one night, and set off early tomorrow morning." ”
Xie Nanhao didn't want to ask again, got up and pushed the weeds next to him together, and began to lay the mattress for Xie Zhuoyan.
The two of them lay down on the ground as a couch, and the bonfire in the middle was swayed by the cold wind from time to time.
"I'm afraid that the people from Xu Mansion have arrived in Luozhuang Town now." Xie Nanhao suddenly said, "It may be too late for us to leave tomorrow." ”
Xie Zhuoyan lay on her side, closed her eyes and said softly, "It's okay." ”
Xie Nanhao turned his head to look at Xie Zhuoyan with his back to him, felt a trace of strangeness in his heart, and after thinking for a while, he turned his head and closed his eyes.
Xie Nanhao found that he didn't know when he began to be unclear about Xie Zhuoyan's thoughts.
No matter how unbelievable and astonishing things Xie Zhuoyan did before, Xie Nanhao only had to listen to Xie Zhuoyan say a word and make a move to know what she was thinking.
But now Xie Nanhao can't figure it out.
I don't understand why Xie Zhuoyan left suddenly, why Xie Zhuoyan has to bear the burden of the Gu Xie family alone, and why Xie Zhuoyan suddenly became so calm and calm.
It's like she's a different person.
