Thinking of this, the contractor suddenly felt a little nostalgic.

This old man, he seems to have not seen for a long time.

It's time for the two to catch up with each other.

In the vast desert, even if it is an official road, it is extremely difficult, not to mention that in order to avoid the pursuit of the contractor, the two can only choose to take a more remote path.

said that it was a small road, but in fact there was no road at all, just relying on Nangong Yi's memory of the terrain map of Mobei, the two of them walked all the way on the deserted sand sea.

It's boring to go crazy on end, especially with someone who never laughs or understands.

However, even so, Lin Jue was still happy in his heart. Nangong Yi didn't talk much, but he didn't take care of her at all.

Just when Lin Jue felt that his tongue was rusty, and his face was about to be filled with wind and sand, he finally saw the end of the desert, not a mirage, but the end of the real desert, and vaguely saw that not far ahead, there was a small town-

"Nangong Yi, look-"

She screamed as she tugged at the corner of someone's coat with joy on her face.

But in the next moment, Lin Jue heard a "hiss", lowered his head suddenly, and found that Nangong Yi's clothes had been torn by her.

In the past few days, not only people have been affected by the wind and sand, but even their robes have become fragile.

Belch......

Lin Jue's face instantly had black lines.

Nangong Yi also discovered this, looking at the robe that began to tear from his shoulder, he showed a rare expression of lovelessness.

"Ahem, that ......"

Lin Jue smirked shyly, "There's a town ahead, let's go buy a new set of ......."

Nangong Yi raised his eyebrows, "Buying it bare-chested?" ”

"You're a man, you're naked."

Lin Jue simply made trouble unreasonably to the end.

It's already broken, what else can I do?

Nangong Yi was speechless, holding her breath, she could only drape the part that had been torn off on her body, it was a little strange, but she could barely cover it.

"And the coat on me is not much better."

Lin Jue looked aggrieved, when she was in the desert, for the convenience of her movements, she was also like Nangong Yi, not only changed her appearance, but also changed into men's clothes. It's a pity that after a violent wind and sand, she is now left with this tattered coat.

But fortunately, the town is not far away, and after walking a few steps, I saw the boundary monument.

The boundary monuments have been seen, and the city gate will naturally not be far away, and after walking for a while, Lin Jue saw the ...... ahead Uh, not at all majestic - the city gates?

If an arch like this with only a few stone pillars casually placed together for people to enter and exit could be called a city gate.

The arch is very high, when approaching, I found that there are various unknown patterns carved on the stone pillars, probably the totem of some ethnic groups in the northwest, there is no city wall around the arch, there is no garrison, and I am used to seeing the heavily guarded Yuejing, Lin Jue can't help but wonder, is it really safe to live in such a city? However, the other party is just a border town, and you can't ask too much of it.

Compared with Lin Jue's curiosity, Nangong Yi was still depressed.

In order to hide people's eyes, he changed his appearance into a big beard, which is nothing, but a big beard in rags is a bit noticeable.

Originally, the people in the town were curious, and as soon as Nangong Yi walked in, he unsurprisingly attracted a lot of attention. This made his already depressed face look even darker.

"There should be a cloth workshop in front of ......"

Lin Jue was a little weak-hearted.

Who would have known that the clothes of a dignified general would be so fragile that they would break when they were torn off.

"Let's find an inn to live in first......", Nangong Yi was a little helpless, even if he went to the cloth workshop to measure the size, he couldn't have clothes to wear right away, so it was more reliable for him to go to the inn to take a shower first. As for the clothes...... Just ask a passer-by and buy an old set.

I didn't need to be so embarrassed, but unfortunately I encountered a huge sandstorm in the desert, and I didn't know where the packed clothes and other things were swept away. Fortunately, Lin Jue had already thought about it and put it around his body instead of in his bag.

Although the place is small, there are quite a lot of inns.

After a while, the two found an inn, during which Nangong Yi bought two sets of old robes from Xiao Er, and then went straight to their respective rooms with Lin Jue.

In fact, when booking a room in the lobby of the inn, there was still a little episode.

In the lobby, when the shopkeeper asked how many rooms there were, Lin Jue didn't want to blurt out "two". But there is nothing strange about this, after all, two men are normal in one room.

But when Lin Jue knew the price of each room, he began to feel heartache again.

Although they are still entangled, it is 108,000 miles away from Kyoto, and there will definitely be more and more places to use money on the next journey, so it is better to save a little.

Seeing that her facial features were crowded together, the shopkeeper said that the two of them could book a room with two beds, which would save half of the room money.

Hearing the shopkeeper say this, the expression on Lin Jue's face instantly became firm, and he replied in a resolute tone that there must be two rooms, one room for each person.

The shopkeeper has been working in this inn for a long time, but he rarely encounters such a situation, since he is distressed about the house money, what does it matter if they are two big men living together, they are both men, even if they sleep together, it doesn't hurt, right? What's more, it's one bed for one person.

There will be such a bizarre situation, and there is definitely something wrong with these two people.

I suddenly thought of a guest not long ago who said that his companion had a "dragon yang fetish" and could not live in the same room; The shopkeeper couldn't help but look up, and after discovering Lin Jue's somewhat feminine appearance, he suddenly realized.

Of these two people, one of them must be a good Longyang, otherwise what does it matter if two big men stay for one night?

From the strange eyes of the shopkeeper, Lin Jue suddenly felt a little weird, and subconsciously turned around to look at Nangong Yi, and found that someone was no longer black-faced, and was lowering his head and smiling. It seems to be holding something very hard.

Lin Jue kicked him quietly, she also wanted to save money, especially when the hotel was so expensive, but although she was wearing men's clothes, she was not really a man, and now she and Nangong Yi are not married, can she be blamed?

It wasn't until he took a shower and changed into the old clothes he bought from the shopkeeper that Lin Jue really felt alive.

It was still early, and the two planned to go for a walk around the town, and by the way, buy some essential items for the next journey.

After walking for a while, Nangong Yi felt that Lin Jue next to him was a little strange.

"What's wrong?"

He asked, looking back at her.

"My shoes ......", Lin Jue pointed to the pair of black boots on her feet, frowning a little depressedly.

Along the way, the boots were worn for too long, and the soles were a little worn out. Walking on the stone road, the soles of the feet can clearly feel the sharp Cheng dù of each stone, just like stepping on the gravel road with bare feet, every step is very uncomfortable.

Judging from the pain, Lin Jue was sure that his feet had blistered.

Nangong Yi instantly understood the crux of the matter, so he pointed to the teahouse next to her and said to her, "You wait for me in this teahouse first, and I'll go to the front to buy you a pair." ”

Lin Jue sighed a little helplessly, but judging from the current situation, he could only do this first.

The teahouse is not too big, but there are many people sitting in the lobby drinking tea and chatting, and finding a place by the window, Lin Jue quickly sat down. If she didn't stop to rest, she felt like she was going to lose those feet.

After ordering a plate of snacks casually and sending away the shopkeeper, Lin Jue leaned on the position, carefully took off his boots, and found that there were a few blisters on both sides of his feet and on his thumbs. She's not a squeamish person, and blisters aren't a big deal, and with a pair of comfortable shoes, the discomfort will go away.

But until Lin Jue finished eating all the snacks, Nangong Yi was still nowhere to be seen.

The evening sky gradually darkened, but Nangong Yi still hadn't appeared, she could no longer sit calmly in the teahouse in a daze, hurriedly settled the bill, and walked out of the teahouse.

The street was bustling with pedestrians, Lin Jue had something on his mind, he didn't care about much, and when he got out of the teahouse, he walked directly to the right front. She remembered that Nangong Yi was also going in this direction just now.

But she didn't go in this direction long before she turned into a secluded alley.

At the corner of the alley, some sounds were faintly heard.

"Nangong Yi is not dead, Niangniang estimates that he is also in this town, you pay more attention, when the time comes——"

Hearing this, Lin Jue broke out in a cold sweat, turned around and walked out as fast as he could.

It seems that the contractor's men have chased here.

However, where is Nangong Yi?

The heart continued to sink little by little, and he didn't know when there was a cat lying in the middle of the alley, Lin Jue only wanted to go out quickly, and he didn't notice his feet at all, and directly stepped on its tail.

"Meow!!! ——”

The gray-brown cat exploded instantly, and its whole body bounced, Lin Jue was startled, and fell to the side unsteadily.

Fortunately, the alley was not too wide, and she leaned against the stone wall and did not fall to the ground.

But the sound that followed made Lin Jue feel that she might as well fall directly to the ground.

Crackling -

A few bamboo poles leaning against the stone wall of the alley were quickly tilted to the side by Lin Jue, and then hit the ground without accident.

After a loud sound, there was silence.

But it's not normal, but it's quiet. Lin Jue shrunk her neck, if she started to run now, I don't know if it would be too late.

Whatever, hurry up and go first.

"Stop."

Sure enough, a figure walked out of the corner of the alley and stopped her directly.

It wasn't too dark yet, and when the figure approached, Lin Jue could see his face clearly.

I couldn't help but sigh in my heart, I met an acquaintance here, I don't know if it's misfortune or misfortune?
