Chapter 273: Do You Still Want to Go?
"What about Lu Li?"
Regardless of whether Xiaobai said the truth or not, Ruoshui knew that it was pointless to dwell on this question of truth or falsehood, so he could only shift the topic elsewhere, trying to find some clues from other aspects.
"I don't know."
Ruoshui is speechless.
“…… Where is your master now? ”
"I don't know."
If the water grits its teeth.
"Then you'll at least know how you got the new order, right?"
"This ...... No comment. ”
"Dead white! What the hell do you know? ”
Ruoshui was blocked several times, and finally wore off all his patience and began to roar.
"I know that you are a woman, and it is definitely a very dangerous thing to be in this border camp. Although I haven't received a new task to protect your safety, I think that since the master can give you that jade pendant, I don't think I will go all the way to get you here, but in the end, I can only let you die here inexplicably. Let's talk about it~ What happened to you? I'll decide if I want to help you on a case-by-case basis. ”
Ruoshui never thought that he would get such an answer from Xiaobai.
She didn't know Xiaobai for a long time, and the most profound contact was because of her indirectly killed Xiaobai's brother, for which Xiaobai almost didn't strangle her to death, so her impression of Xiaobai has always stayed at the derogatory level such as "fierce" and "reckless". However, now Xiaobai speaks clearly and unhurriedly, but it seems that she is a little out of breath when she screams.
No matter what the meaning behind Xiaobai's words is, at least he is willing to help himself anyway. So Ruoshui also quickly sorted out his emotions, and when he spoke again, he had already hidden his emotions.
"I woke up and was placed under house arrest. But I don't know why. Now I'm thinking about how to escape and find out the truth of the matter, this is not an opportunity to run out of the violence, I met you. By the way, is there any news from my family? You promised me that you would always give me news of them. ”
“…… We've only been here for a few days, so how could news come so quickly. ”
Ruoshui himself knows that it is not very likely that there is news now. But I still asked with a fluke mentality, but there was no news from them yet, although I had already prepared in my heart. But I can't help but feel gloomy.
"But I can pass on your message to them first, how about that? Is there anything Miss Siu would like to tell them? ”
"Really? I...... I think about it...... But I don't have anything with me now, this ......"
Although there was no news, he was still able to communicate with his family. Wakasui feels very satisfied. She was pleasantly surprised to fumble around herself. I found that there was really nothing that could be used as a token, and I couldn't help but feel a little anxious again.
"It doesn't matter, after a while, I will find an opportunity to find you in which camp the girl lives, and it will not be too late to prepare. Looking at the current situation, I have a feeling that there is a good chance that you will not leave here anytime soon. ”
"You...... What does this mean? What do you know? ”
Listening to Xiaobai's words, it seemed to mean something. Ruoshui instantly became alert again.
"No, I said I didn't know anything. But the master has a good intention in doing things, and since he sent you to this place, he naturally needs you to do something here. According to what you said, it's been a few days here, but I haven't received any instructions yet, so I think it's not time yet, maybe I'm waiting for some time~"
Occasion...... What timing?
Ruoshui groaned for a while, and found that he really had no clue at all, and was about to grab Xiaobai again to ask what was going on, but suddenly heard Xiaobai say.
"Look."
I think? What to see?
Ruoshui hurriedly raised his head and looked forward, but saw that a cavalry had appeared on the distant sideline at some point, galloping forward, raising up the yellow sand in the sky, which looked particularly magnificent on this boundless Gobi Desert.
That's right! They were going to rush to the Tami District to quell the riots, and before they were only entangled in other issues, they left behind the purpose they had at the beginning, Ruoshui hurriedly turned around and urged Xiao Baidao.
"Let's catch up quickly~"
"Nope."
Instead of obeying Ruoshui's request, Xiaobai directly reined in the horse and stopped.
"What's wrong? What to stop for? ”
Ruoshui hurriedly asked.
The advance speed of the cavalry in front of them was not slow, and they had already run out of a short distance after they had stopped for a while, as if they were about to leave their field of vision again.
"This is a border border, and no one will ride a horse here except for the generals of the two countries. We are now acting alone, and we are not part of the army's original counterinsurgency plan, so you can imagine if they found us, would they confirm our identity first, or would they just shoot us on the spot? ”
“……”
Ruoshui didn't even feel the need to answer this question, because even if they were lucky enough to be identified first, it wouldn't explain why they were alone outside the group.
Say they want to quell the riots too? Don't be kidding~ Why don't you follow the big army, but you have to act on your own, and you have to come up with a strange way of traveling for two people. The most important thing is that Ruoshui is still a woman dressed as a man, and her appearance can't stand up to inspection at all. What's more, the prisoner she was supposed to stay in the camp is almost the same as escaping from prison now, and she was caught in this state, and the two of them must have a hundred mouths and can't tell.
"That'...... What to do? ”
Thinking about it, Ruoshui couldn't even think of what kind of posture he should appear in front of them, but everyone's destination was the same, and they had to meet sooner or later, so they calculated it, and finally figured out a dead knot.
"Are you still going now?"
Xiaobai didn't answer Ruoshui's question, but threw a new question at her.
Do you want to go?
After being asked this question again, Ruoshui suddenly realized that he really didn't need to go.
Originally, the reason why she wanted to quell the violence was actually to find an excuse to fool Doctor Du into letting her out, and the purpose of letting herself out was to find out her current situation and find a chance to leave. But now after meeting Xiaobai, although the situation is not clear, at least it has been determined that staying here is the intention of the noble lady, since it is her intention, then there is already a way to protect her, so what Ruoshui should do now is to stay quietly in the camp and wait for the situation to develop on its own, instead of jumping out by himself and making the situation worse and worse.
