In the end, Jian Ning and the others still got out of the Garan Temple without danger, and naturally they were warned before they came out, and they were not allowed to go out and talk nonsense.

Since it was already afternoon when they came out, they were hungry at this time, and Jian Ning and Xi'er were not very comfortable staying in the car.

"Ning'er, although it is in the wilderness here, it is not impossible to find a little food. You go ahead and wait for me. While it was still dark, I went to hunt two pheasants and hares. We can't go hungry all the time. After Ruan Zijin finished speaking, he beat his horse and headed to the other side.

"Ning'er, this" Looking at Ruan Zijin's figure of leaving quickly, Liu Leshan said a little worriedly.

"It's okay, just let Zijin go, senior brother don't worry." Jian Ning lifted the curtain and said to Liu Leshan with a smile.

According to Ruan Zijin's ability, it is not a problem to hunt game. And they do need food now, too. It's not dark yet, and the temperature is slowly dropping, and if there is nothing to feed them, it is estimated that they will have a very hard time tonight.

"Senior brother, let's go further, there shouldn't be no creek in this kind of place, and our water is gone, we must find water as much as possible." Jian Ning looked at the front and continued to say to Liu Leshan.

"Okay." Liu Leshan listened to Jian Ning's words, so he had to nod and continue to walk forward.

The carriage walked for about half an hour, and Liu Leshan finally found a small stream with clear water quality. After stopping the carriage, he helped Jian Ning and Xi'er to get out of the carriage.

Jian Ning took a look at the surrounding environment, the mountains and rivers were beautiful, and it was indeed a good environment. If it weren't for the cold weather now, Jian Ning would definitely feel that camping in such a place is also a very good thing.

"Miss, the slave maid will go and fill our kettle with water first." Xi'er took all the kettles from the carriage. After talking to Jian Ning, he ran towards the stream.

"Senior brother, the color is gradually darkening today. I'm afraid I'm going to camp out here today. Jian Ning looked at the sky and said to Liu Leshan a little helplessly.

"Hey. The rest doesn't matter, but now that the weather is getting colder, you have to pay attention to sleeping at night. Liu Leshan looked around and said worriedly.

"Senior brother, don't worry, I expected this situation when I was in Fengcheng, so I bought a lot of things to keep out the cold!" Jian Ning said with a smile.

"Alright, I'll go collect some firewood first, and make a fire or something. It can not only keep out the cold, but also bake and eat for a while. Liu Leshan said and walked to the side.

Before the sky was completely dark, Jian Ning finally waited for Ruan Zijin to come back. From a distance, I saw Ruan Zijin sitting on horseback, proudly showing off the prey she had hit.

"Ning'er, you see that I have gained a lot! We're not going to go hungry. Ruan Zijin arrived in front of Jian Ning, dismounted dexterously, and took the prey from the horse and sent it to Jian Ning.

Jian Ning saw that there were indeed a lot, three pheasants and two rabbits. Jian Ning looked at Ruan Zijin's excited face, handed her a pot of water, and said with a smile: "Zijin is really amazing. It's only been less than an hour, and I've already fought so much! ”

"Hee-hee, it's mostly luck!" Ruan Zijin drank enough water. Said with a grin. After looking around, he didn't see Liu Leshan's figure, and then he said, "Huh? Why don't you see the shopkeeper Liu? ”

"Senior brother has gone to collect firewood, and he must be coming back soon. You go and get my box for the knives, and we'll take care of these things first, and we'll bake them for a while. Jian Ning said with a smile.

After a while, when Jian Ning had almost dealt with the pheasant and the hare, Liu Leshan also came back with a large bundle of firewood.

This night, the four of Jian Ning sat around the bonfire. Everyone ate Jane's baked food, talking and laughing. The cold night passed peacefully.

Early the next morning. After Jian Ning woke up, he was studying the map, and after Liu Leshan cleaned it up. Looking at Jian Ning and asked with a smile, "What is Ning Er studying?" ”

"Senior brother, now we are near the Garan Temple, which is probably the location here." Jian Ning pointed to a place on the map and continued to Liu Leshan, "The map shows that there are still about five hundred miles away from Kyoto. From here, after traveling for about 200 miles, you will go out of the boundaries of Toyojo and enter the nearest castle to Kyoto, Meijo. ”

"Well, at the current rate, if there are no accidents, we can reach Kyoto Castle on the evening of the 13th." Liu Leshan nodded and said.

"If we are faster, can we enter Ming City tonight?" Jian Ning thought that this place was only two hundred miles away from Ming City at most. She still has the medicine that Jiu'er gave her at that time to relieve motion sickness, and if she is fast, she should be able to rush to Mingcheng. That way they don't have to sleep in the wild anymore.

"I'm afraid it's too late, Mingcheng is close to Kyoto, and the time to close the city gate is relatively early, and the city gate will be closed at about three o'clock in the unitary hour. Even if we hurry, we won't be able to catch up. Liu Leshan pondered for a moment and said lightly.

Jian Ning couldn't help but be a little disappointed when she heard this, she had been sleeping in the wild for several nights in a row, and the only one who slept in the house was the night in the Garan Temple, but she was worried about her life that night, and she didn't rest well. Jian Ning really wants to take a hot bath comfortably and sleep peacefully.

Liu Leshan looked at Jian Ning's appearance, and probably guessed what Jian Ning thought, and then patted Jian Ning's head with a smile and said, "Okay, Ning'er, we won't sleep in the wild tonight." Although we couldn't enter Mingcheng in time, there was a small village on the outskirts of Mingcheng thirty miles away, and we could still go there to spend the night. ”

When Jian Ning heard this, she was stunned for a moment, took the map and looked at it carefully, and said with doubts on her face: "There are no villages written on this map?" ”

This map is up-to-date, and the last time Liu Leshan came here should have been four years ago, so it doesn't make sense that the village that existed four years ago is not shown on the current map, which was updated only a year ago.

"There were only a dozen families in that village, which was not very large, and the place was a little more hidden, so it was not marked on the map. Master and I also entered by accident. Liu Leshan said for Jian Ning.

"I see."

After a simple tidying up, Jian Ning and the others hit the road again. The view of Fengcheng is very good, otherwise there would not be so many temples located here. Jian Ning never lowered the car curtains all the way, quietly enjoying the scenery all the way.

The carriage kept moving steadily, and suddenly Ruan Zijin's ears moved, his brows furrowed, and he quickly stepped forward and stopped the carriage.

Liu Leshan didn't expect Ruan Zijin to suddenly stop the carriage, and pulled the reins suddenly, and the carriage stopped without warning, which inevitably made Jian Ning and Xi'er in the carriage fall a big heel.

Liu Leshan immediately asked, "What's wrong?" ”

Jian Ning also got up at this time, lifted the curtain, showed her head, looked at Ruan Zijin and asked, "Zijin, is something wrong?" ”

"I heard what seemed to be a fight ahead. Judging by the sound, the number should not be less than twenty. Ruan Zijin said with a calm face.

"There's a fight?" Jian Ning obviously didn't expect this to be the case. Along the way, it seems that there has never been such a thing of two parties fighting in front. Usually they fight with the other side.

"Zijin, can you judge which side is more powerful, they or you?" Jian Ning paused for a long time and asked calmly.

These two parties fight, if Ruan Zijin is better than them, then they will continue to move forward, so that even if those people want to attack them, they can protect their own safety. If Zijin is not sure to win them, then she can only find a way to avoid them first, or simply take a detour.

"Well, I can't be too sure just by listening, but if you can protect yourself, then I will definitely have no problem dealing with those people with all my heart." Ruan Zijin pondered for a moment before replying affirmatively.

"Senior brother, is there a detour here?" After Jian Ning heard this, she turned to ask Liu Leshan.

She wasn't actually afraid that she wouldn't be able to protect herself, she still had silver needles on her body, and the silver needles were smeared with some poison powder given to her by Jiu'er, ecstasy, or something. It shouldn't be difficult to protect yourself. And although Liu Leshan doesn't know martial arts, he has the strength and brain, and if he wants to protect himself, it's okay not to let Ruan Zijin be distracted. But there was still Xi'er in the car, so Jian Ning didn't want to take risks.

"If you go back a bit, you should be able to take another path." Liu Leshan thought for a moment and replied.

"Okay, then we" Jian Ning didn't even have time to say the word "detour", Ruan Zijin's heavy and cold voice had already sounded: "I'm afraid it's too late to leave now, they're already coming this way." ”

When everyone heard this, they all looked ahead, and really saw three people running in front. Behind them were seventeen or eighteen men in black, each with a knife in their hands.

And the two women and a man who ran at the front, they obviously also saw Jian Ning's carriage, and they suddenly ran desperately to this side.

Looking at those people who were getting closer and closer to him, even less than two hundred meters, Jian Ning suddenly became unusually calm, and asked Ruan Zijin: "Zijin, are you sure to win against those people now?" ”

"Yes." Ruan Zijin squinted at the people in front of him. These people are all good, and they cooperate very tacitly, obviously professionally trained, but fortunately, there are only eighteen of them, and if you deal with them wholeheartedly, you will definitely be able to solve them all.
