Wisteria walked out of the tavern, and a light rain began to fall in the sky, and the vendors along the street hurried to collect their stalls and go home, and the shopkeepers also asked their men to lower the roller blinds in front of the windowsill.

The pedestrians scattered, and the street gradually became deserted, and slowly, except for the sound of raindrops crackling and falling, no other sound could be heard......

He walked in the direction of Hongfang in the rain, and the raindrops fell on the amethyst jade cold arrow he was carrying on his back, making the already white and flawless arrow feathers at the top of the cold arrow appear more crystal clear.

The rain drenched his long dark hair and purple robe, drenching on his angular face, and he recalled the scene two years ago when the Queen Mother forced him to drop out of the Jingcheng Martial Arts Academy and return to Yue to assist General Zhao Xiao in his attack on Wuguo—the day they led their army into the village of Wuguo, when he was riding a war horse and holding a cold bow, and the children who were laughing and playing at the entrance of the village ran curiously to stare at him and the army of purple guards behind him.

It was the first time in his life that he felt dazed and overwhelmed, but the holy decree was difficult to do, and the queen mother's order made the originally peaceful and peaceful village instantly turn into a sea of fire, he looked at the refugees who fled in a hurry and were displaced, looked at the children who were crying and lost their souls, and those panicked and vulnerable soldiers of Wuguo, instead of feeling half the joy of victory, but as if he had lost his soul, he felt extremely guilty and self-blame.

He knew that he had committed an unpardonable grave sin, so he tried his best to escape from it all, but he was already mired in the abyss of no return......

As the rain began to fall heavier, Wisteria stopped, his vision blurred, and in the haze, he saw a figure standing not far in front of him—a small girl, with her back to him, who looked a little thin, and was standing tremblingly in the middle of the road, drenched in the pouring rain like him.

Wisteria looked at the girl's lonely and slightly desolate back, and a helpless wry smile suddenly flashed at the corner of her mouth - they are both fallen people at the end of the world, why should they have known each other when they meet.

He stepped forward and raised his arm to cover her from the rain that had fallen on him, but the girl suddenly fell straight back on top of him. Wisteria was startled at first, and then subconsciously reached out and touched the girl's forehead, only to find that she was suffering from a high fever.

He put the bow on his shoulder, picked the girl up sideways, and walked briskly towards the Red Square.

＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊

Tianhuang City, Red Square.

Cai Tong smelled the faint fragrance of violets in the haze, she opened her tired eyes, looked at the beautiful roof paved with gold ceramic tiles, and touched the surroundings of her body with her hands—she seemed to be lying on a large soft bed, and she was still changing into clean clothes......

Clean clothes?

Caitong sat up suddenly, and looked around vigilantly, she clearly remembered that she was on the street just now, and it was raining, why did she come to a strange room in a blink of an eye, and she was still wearing clothes that someone had changed into?

"Are you awake?" Wisteria walked into the room with a smile on her face, holding a carved hollowed-out mahogany plate with a steaming bowl of ginger soup on top.

"You...... Who are you?" Caitong subconsciously wrapped the quilt on his chest tightly, looking at the strange man who had boldly barged into the house with a shocked expression.

"Don't be afraid, I'm not a bad person," Wisteria saw her concerns, gently put the ginger soup on her bedside table, and took a few steps back before saying to her: "You fainted on the street just now, and I happened to pass by, so I brought you back, and you were soaked all over, so I called a few maids to change your clean clothes." ”

"Oh...... Thank you. Caitong nodded a little embarrassed after hearing this, looked at the luxurious furniture around her, and asked a little worriedly, "Where is this?"

"The Red Square of Wancaimen. ”

Caitong nodded a little dazed after hearing this, she has never left Jiguo since she was a child, and the farthest distance she has traveled is from Xiling to the capital Yelan Ancient City, so she doesn't know anything about Tianhuang City, and she has never heard of Hongfang......

"It's called Wisteria, may I ask the girl's name?"

"My name is Caitong. She finished speaking, but lowered her head again, remembering what had just happened on the street. According to what Ye Lansu, the lord of Fengyun Pavilion, said, she casually found a passer-by on the street to inquire about Wuxi, and others told her that several months ago, the head of Hanchemen, Wuji, and the people of Shenfu had a dispute in the tomb of the Heavenly King for snatching treasures, and later Wuxian was poisoned by Shenyu Xuan, the young master of Shenfu, and Hanchemen, who had lost its head, was also facing the crisis of being annexed by Xuanwuling Mansion, the largest force in the Heng Kingdom......

But she still didn't understand what the matter of Shenfu and Hanchemen had to do with her family's arrest, and why did Ye Lansu ask her to inquire about it?

"What does the girl seem to have on her mind?" Wisteria, who was still on the side, saw her cloudy face, so she asked with concern: "If you have any troubles, you may want to tell me, although I am only a shallow learner, I may be able to help Miss Caitong share a little worry." ”

Caitong glanced up and down at the person in front of him, Danfeng eyes, high nose bridge, skin was smoother and fairer than his own, and he was tall and long-legged, and his personality seemed to be gentle and kind, plus he had just saved himself, so he should be a relatively reliable and good person. Thinking so, Caitong told Wisteria and Pan all the things that had happened since the accident in Xiling City to the time when he fell into this field.

As she spoke, she felt more and more sad, she was originally the daughter of the lord of Xiling City, and she lived a life of worry-free food and clothing, but suddenly her family was arrested, Xiling fell, and there was no one to help her everywhere for help...... There was nothing more unfortunate in the world, and she couldn't help but cry at the thought of it.

Wisteria patiently listened to her explain the truth of the matter, wiped away her tears comfortingly, and hesitated for a moment before saying to her, "Miss Caitong wants to hear my thoughts?"

Caitong looked at him with big teary eyes and nodded repeatedly.

"This time, only the two major forces that went to the Heavenly King's Tomb to make trouble were the Divine Mansion and the Han Che Gate, so it is very likely that your family was captured by the people of the Divine Mansion or the Han Che Gate," he glanced at Cai Tong, who was slightly surprised, and continued: "The Divine Mansion and the Han Che Gate are attached to the Silver Bun Sect and the Xuanwu Ling Mansion respectively, and these two major sects are mortal enemies. Just now you said that your family is good at studying the ancient books in the tomb of the Heavenly King, and many of the books in the house have also been looted, and even the people have been expelled from their homes in order to search the city. ”
