Timid!

Looking at the subtle change in the expression on Li Yuan's face, Takemoto didn't know what kind of calculation he had in his heart. She has always felt that this Li Yuan and herself are the hidden stakes planted in Tokyo by Lord Zuo, but their actions are very inauthentic. At this moment, seeing him encounter something like this, he only thought about retreating, and he couldn't help but feel a little more contempt for this person.

But without Li Yuan's support, she couldn't do it anyway if she wanted to insist on protecting Xin Zi alone, and then facing Xin Zi's firm gaze at the moment, although she was reluctant in her heart, she had to take the jade wrench handed over by Xin Zi.

At noon, the sun became more and more poisonous, and there were many fewer people entering and leaving the west gate, and the guards guarding both sides of the gate were in charge of checking their identities with a faint look of laziness in their eyes.

As Xin Zi said, although there are many fewer unrelated people to cover at this time, it is better to play the psychological card of defending the city.

Takemoto, who took the lead, took two deep breaths to make himself look as leisurely as possible, and then walked towards the city gate unhurriedly.

Xin Zi, who was still sitting outside the teahouse, looked at Takemoto's back as he approached the city gate step by step, and his heart was even more worried than Takemoto-if he couldn't even pass the pass, let alone himself and Li Yuan.

From a distance, I saw Takemoto passing through the city gate as if nothing had happened, and only one of the guards with the portrait in his arms glanced at her, but finally did not step forward to stop her, and let her out of the city.

Seeing this, Xin Zi let out a long sigh of relief, turned to nod at Li Yuan, and then silently stood up and went outside the city gate.

Before leaving the inn, Li Yuan found the gray-brown coarse cloth clothes that the local people wore most often. Takemoto carefully dressed up the three of them, and even made a simple disguise for Xin Zi.

Those who are well versed in the art of disguise know that the easiest and most effective way to change their appearance is to do their hands and feet on the eyebrows, eyes and face shape, so most men have beards, while women mostly cover them with sideburns.

Xin Zi only moved his hands and feet on his eyebrows at the moment, and used special tape to raise the originally weak willow leaf curved eyebrows into heroic inverted eyebrows that were raised like sideburns, and scattered the half of the hair that was only loosely tied behind his head before, recombed the cross bun that most modified the face shape, and moved his hands and feet slightly at the chin, making the originally sharpened chin much more rounded. There are not many changes in the whole outfit, but at first glance, Xin Zi's original delicate feeling is swept away. At the beginning of the meeting in the morning, Li Yuan was dumbfounded and sighed: "The girl should try more such a dress in the future, this cross hair is gentle and naughty, which is very suitable for you." ”

Now that Xin Zi is approaching the city gate step by step, this outfit has become her best protective color. She kept telling herself in her heart not to panic, not to show flaws, and that she would definitely be able to pass the test safely, and her face pretended to be calm, and she walked forward without stopping.

Sure enough, when he was about to pass by the two guards who were in charge of screening people out of the city, he saw that the two of them looked lazy, and they didn't even raise their eyelids.

Xin Zi was secretly happy in her heart, and unconsciously quickened her steps.

But at this time, a person who suddenly walked down the stone steps leading to the city wall completely disrupted Xin Zi's steps.

"General!"

A soldier on the stone steps shouted respectfully.

The two guards who were standing at the city gate in a drowsy manner heard the sound and a spirit stood up straight. As if in order to hide the embarrassment of being lazy at his post, the guard on the right hand waved Xin Zi over without thinking.

Xin Zi's heart instantly sank to the bottom of the icy lake, but his face tried to make an indifferent appearance, and obediently stood beside the guards.

The guard took out the portrait from his bosom and looked back and forth at Xin Zi's appearance and compared it with the young woman in the portrait.

Xin Zi's heart was pounding, the underwear on his back was already soaked with sweat, but his face was not shocked, and he even mustered up the courage to look up at the guard's eyes and squeezed out a smile at him.

I don't know if it was Takemoto's disguise technique that deceived his eyes, or if he was blinded by Xin Zi's frank behavior, the guards finally put down the portrait and waved their hands to signal Xin Zi to leave.

Xin Zi's heart was relieved, and before he could take a step out of his raised foot, he was hit on the head again.

"Wait a minute."

A familiar voice came from the stone steps, followed by a man in military uniform.

It's Yi Lei!

There was a buzz in Xin Zi's head, and the blood on his face instantly faded by half.

How did he end up here? Obviously, the two of them met outside Jiamen Pass half a month ago, did they meet again so soon?

This Yi Lei was different from the others who guarded the city, he had seen Xin Zi, and he was only five steps away from her that night.

The portrait may have fooled the guards who could only imagine the wanted woman in abstract strokes, but the general is hard to say.

The guards saluted respectfully at Yi Lei and presented the portrait with both hands.

Yi Lei took the portrait, and without looking at the portrait, he looked directly at Xin Zi, but the moment his eyes touched Xin Zi's face, he squinted as if he was suddenly stabbed by a strong light, and his brows frowned almost invisibly.

Xin Zi stood there with his eyes and nose and nose, and he no longer had the courage to deal with the guards just now, so he could only turn to escape.

I'm afraid that this time I will not escape the bad luck of being caught.

Xin Zi thought in her heart, and her thoughts drifted away. began to worry that if he was caught by Yi Lei's people and Takemoto insisted on saving himself, what would Li Yuan do at that time?

"It's okay, let her go."

Xin Zi was thinking whimsically on this side, but Yi Lei suddenly opened his mouth and let people go. was so shocked that Xin Zi couldn't hold back any longer, and looked up at Yi Lei violently, but saw that he didn't even want to look at himself more, and turned to leave.

Xin Zi was in a trance for a moment, stunned and couldn't relax as she watched Yi Lei's back leave.

The guards who had received the order became impatient and waved Xin Zi to leave quickly.

Li Yuan, who was sitting outside the teahouse, naturally didn't know about Yi Lei's paragraph, and from his point of view, he could only be sure that Xin Zi left safely, and then it was his turn to play in the end.

He grinned, not as solemn as Takemoto and Xin Zi, but with a little more brisk performance.

If Takemoto is here, I'm afraid I'll scold him for being frivolous again when I see him like this, right?

Thinking of this, Li Yuan shook his head with a smile, shook off the sweat on his head, drank all the tea that had already been cold in the tea bowl, got up and came to the swill truck, approached the dark box tightly surrounded by wooden boards, and whispered: "Yuchen, lie down, let's go on the road."
