In that case, why didn't you dispose of this person as early as when you were in Dragonclaw City?

This thought came out of Ah Zi's mind, and she herself was startled first.

Since when did she start to have such vicious thoughts?

Not to mention that he didn't know the other party's intentions at all, and it was even difficult to distinguish between evil and good, just because that person had been hiding in the shadows like a shadow, watching his and Ah Brown's every move, he was about to move with killing intent?

Seeing that Ah Zi first looked puzzled, then his eyes widened as if he was frightened by himself, and then his eyes were full of self-blame, Ah Zi couldn't help laughing out loud when he saw it in his eyes.

"I've also thought about solving this person directly," he replied calmly, "but once this person is treacherous, although I can't see where the teacher is, I can conclude that it must be above me, and he is in the dark, I am in the light, even if I have the heart to catch him out, directly fight for speed, but I am afraid that I am not an opponent."

"Besides, he followed me all the way, stared at me all the way, and I naturally observed him all the way. Although I can't be sure that he has no malicious intent, I can be sure that he doesn't want to hurt you and me for the time being.

"In that case, when I came to you alone, I simply decided to let it go. If he finally can't bear to show up and cut off his own way, I will naturally have the confidence to restrain him within three moves. If he had been following him like that, and the journey was long, I would have liked to have a companion to add some fun to my boring journey. ”

Speaking of this, Tang Yin's brown eyes, which were originally breezy and light, were covered with a thin layer of sadness, he lowered his eyelids slightly, and said softly: "I'm sorry." My trip to Xijing to find you was so smooth that I completely left this person behind......"

Hearing this, Ah Zi smiled and stepped forward to caress Ah Brown's arm, and when his fingers touched the strong arm, he was slightly shocked by the undulating clear muscle lines, and he was stunned for a moment.

"Haven't I been well protected by you, standing here safely?" Ah Zi, who quickly adjusted her mood, looked at Ah Brown's long and thick eyelashes hitting the long shadow on her cheeks in the afterglow of the setting sun and said, "However, according to you, does it mean that this man in black actually took the initiative to appear for the first time today?" ”

This question woke up Tang Yinbrown. He shook. Frowning and half-talking to himself, he said, "I was careless...... It seems that this man in black is far more dangerous than I thought......"

originally thought that it was just an enemy who was inadvertently formed while walking the rivers and lakes, and it might even be a dead man sent by Zhu Huishu to keep an eye on, Tang Yinbrown never wanted to delve into it, first, he didn't have the energy and time. Second, he knew that the other party was just following him. I don't have the ability to hurt myself at all.

But now it's different.

The man in black who followed him and didn't show up for months. But as soon as Ah Zi left Xijing, he saw an opportunity for her to approach her alone, and this purpose was simply obvious - his goal was never himself, he was just his bait. Used to fish out Ah Zi.

Thinking of this, Ah Brown clenched his fists, gritted his teeth and thought hatefully: "This person can't stay anymore." As soon as Xing Fu found out his identity, he immediately cleared it, leaving no trace. ”

Ah Zi's question was not answered for a long time, but what she was waiting for was Ah Brown's somewhat hideous face, which made her take a step forward and ask "What's wrong" with concern.

Ah Zi, who didn't want Ah Zi to get involved in these dark and bloody hooks, and didn't want her to worry about these trivial things, was naturally unwilling to tell her what he thought at this time, but just smiled at her: "It's okay, it's getting dark, I'll go make a fire and find a dry place to rest." ”

But the so-called rest is only for Ah Zi alone, Tang Yinbrown passed the incident of the man in black, and decided to stay by Ah Zi's side silently and put a night of whistle.

Lying alone on the undulating bed under him through the thick cotton wool, he could still clearly feel the undulating bed under him, and from time to time there was a distant hissing of birds and beasts in his ears, and he couldn't fall asleep over and over, and finally simply got up and came to Ah Brown's side.

Ah Zi and the high ground under a dead tree trunk next to the bonfire were sitting motionless, looking into the distance, slowly wiping an arm-long oxtail knife in his hand, his angular facial contours were even more heroic in the light of the fire, and the deep brown eyes reflected swaying sparks.

Seeing Ah Zi pacing over, his eyes, which were originally calm to a little cold, lifted up, like a layer of frost frozen in Ah Zi's eyes, and the vigilance and rain quickly melted, replaced by a warm smile.

"Can't sleep?"

He asked softly. Ah Zi nodded. He didn't say anything more, just moved his body to the side, making room for Ah Zi to be the most comfortable seat near the campfire.

Ah Zi smiled at Ah Brown, and was not polite, and sat down directly next to him.

Xu was afraid of hurting Ah Zi, and Xu was worried that Ah Zi didn't want to see the cold blade, Ah Brown stopped the movement of his hand and inserted the knife that had already been polished into his waist.

Ah Zi looked at the oxtail knife with only the hilt of the knife hidden from the edge, and asked, "On the day of Empress Shen's birthday banquet, you entered the battle body knife dedicated to Emperor Yan and followed you for many years, right?" ”

Tang Yinbrown nodded slightly.

"Wouldn't it be a pity?" Ah Zi asked, but moved his gaze from the knife on Ah Brown's waist to the distant sky, "That knife helped you break through so many enemy formations that seemed impossible to capture...... Moreover, I heard that it was a gift from Tang Jiashan when Lord Tang recognized you as a righteous son? ”

It's just a good sword, just as I did to my father-in-law and King Xin. If such a weapon can be easily exchanged for you, even if you give up thousands of more, what is it?

Tang Yinbrown thought in his heart, but in the end he didn't listen to Ah Zi, and only said on his lips: "Weapons are things outside the body, isn't it said in the rivers and lakes, the highest level of using knives and making swords, is there no sword in the hand, the blade is hidden in the heart, the spirit is calm, and the internal force is there, can you be invincible?" ”

Ah Zi smiled lightly when he heard this, and said to himself: "It's a pity that the long knife erected on my shoulder, without the original destined owner, I'm afraid that it will be difficult to find someone who can wield it in the future." It could have been a bloody battlefield, but now it can only be dusted in the Xiyu Royal Armory......"

Listening to Ah Zi's emotion, I know that she is complaining about her loss, and maybe she also has some self-blame for her own loss?

No matter which one it was, Tang Yinbrown was very satisfied, he breathed a long sigh of relief, looked up at the stars in the sky, and quietly enjoyed the peace of mind that Ah Zi was by his side.

This comfort is also what Ah Zi has always wanted to find.

Just like the carefree nights when the two of them lay in the courtyard in front of the Sacred Heart Niangniang Temple in Zhuhe Mountain and watched the stars. (To be continued.) )
