Yuzi hurriedly followed with a clean handkerchief, but she didn't dare to stop her.

Everyone knows that Xie Shuning looks young and has a good temperament, but in fact, she is much more powerful than the serious housewife of the Song family. Yuzi had no choice but to purse her lips and follow her downstairs, stretching out her arms from time to time to wipe her long hair that was still dripping, so as not to let the already cold droplets drip into Xie Shuning's back collar.

Most of the local inns are small two-story buildings, with mottled old wooden staircases, which are not very high.

Xie Shuning quickly walked in front of everyone.

Seeing that it was just a little girl, the group didn't care, just glanced at her and then withdrew their gaze. One of them still said to the proprietress with a rebellious attitude, "We want to stay in the hotel." ”

The proprietress smiled wryly: "My lord, this is all full, you should go up to the quilt to take a look." ”

This inn is one of the best in the ancient city of Khotan, and it has always been popular.

"Get a few rooms out."

The proprietress dares to open a store here, and she is used to seeing big scenes, and she has not met many stubborn guests on weekdays, and she is not annoyed when she hears the words, but she only says: "This is not possible, I have received the money!" ”

"How much silver? We double. When the person on the other side heard this, he threw out such a sentence lightly.

The proprietress shook her head, "Ladies and gentlemen, let's find another one, the most important thing in business is to pay attention to letters, I can't lose my integrity just for a little silver." ”

Xie Shuning tilted her head, twisted a handful of hair, and the water droplets fell dripping, soaking the ground under her feet.

"What are you doing down here, you don't have to freeze! This hair is still wet! Song saw her and hurriedly approached and urged her to go back.

Since the beginning of the poplar forest, Xie Shuning's dislike for the two teenagers has always been superficial and undisguised. The Song family didn't dare to make any mistakes at this moment. The person who this group is looking for. Apparently they were the ones they brought to the ancient city of Khotan. No matter what they are looking for, just looking at it like this doesn't seem like a good thing.

If Xie Shuning says it, it won't be good.

Song frowned, looked at Yuzi, and said, "Why don't you send Miss upstairs and dry your hair." ”

"Yes." Yuzi quietly glanced at Xie Shuning, and reached out to help her, "Miss, hurry up and go back to the room." ”

Xie Shuning didn't move. shook Song's hand, then laughed, and faced the others: "The proprietress is right, this inn has been chartered by us, how can there be any reason to vacate a room for you to live in?" and you have no shortage of silver. Where is it not to live? ”

After speaking, she said to Scar again: "Uncle Knife." If these people don't know the place. You can send them, this is in the ancient city of Khotan, there are many inns, you must always pick a good one. ”

In a few words, she had already begun to send off the guests.

The proprietress couldn't help but look at her with a little surprise.

This courage is not like the young lady who was raised in the boudoir in the Western Yue Dynasty.

These people came. All of them wore swords around their waists.

Although the swordsmen who come and go are also armed with blades, the proprietress who is used to seeing people has vicious eyes. Where will you not see the difference between these people.

This group of people, with fine skin and tender meat, how could they be swordsmen and swordsmen who come and go to the desert to beg for a living.

"Everyone, please!" Scar made a gesture of please.

"Are you from the West Vietnamese?" Hearing Scar's words, the group did not move, but the first person suddenly asked.

Scar said, "It's none of your business. ”

The man sneered, then clenched his fists and said, "I'm offended, it's just that I've been here for nearly half a year, and the people of Xiyue have seen a lot, but it's the first time I've seen this." ”

The mother and daughter duo are indeed very rare without a male host.

Xie Shuning raised her hand, wiped a drop of water from her cheek, and said with a smile: "We are going back to Yanling, we have been delayed for many days, and we are about to rest, so I will not leave you." ”

"It was originally from Yanling." The man tugged at the corners of his mouth, and said to a few people behind him, "Now that this place is full, let's change to an inn." ”

In Song's accent, he still does not change his native accent, with a soft and glutinous Jiangnan flavor. This will hear Yanling, and this group of people will believe it.

A crowd of people streamed out.

Scar quickly followed.

What Xie Shuning said just now, he didn't hear a word wrong, and he also understood Xie Shuning's intentions. Just like what Song Yanzhao said when he left Dunhuang, don't look at Xie Shuning as a child, but deep down in her heart it is not as simple as a child.

After Scar's figure also disappeared outside the door, Song breathed a sigh of relief, and after a few words of gossip with the proprietress and pulled Xie Shuning upstairs.

When Yan Huai and the two came in before, it happened that the proprietress was behind to let people place a camel team, and it happened that they didn't see the two, which was also good luck.

Song secretly rejoiced, sent Xie Shuning back to the room, took a handkerchief to wipe her hair, and asked Yuzi to go down and let the proprietress light an extra brazier to send it.

It's cold, and I dry my wet hair like this, and I get cold all of a sudden.

"Look at you, the bigger you get, the more you go back, your body bones are not good, how can you do it if you freeze again." Song was disgusted, but there was a slight unnaturalness in his expression.

Xie Shuning didn't break it either, and let her say.

After a while, Yuzi came in with a brazier and Turan one after the other.

Warmth comes.

Xie Shuning said softly: "My mother is worried about those two, right?" ”

Song was slightly embarrassed, "They saved you in the end." ”

"It was because they saved me that I didn't give them out just now." She smiled, "Mother, don't think about it, those two are gone." ”

Fang Cai heard that someone was looking for someone downstairs, and she heard that the Song family had gone down to deal with it, so she immediately asked Turan to find Yan Huai and the others, and she took Yuzi downstairs.

Sure enough, when Turan arrived, the building was already empty.

The group of people was looking for them, and it was really them.

"Those who have caused trouble, we have taken them to the ancient city of Khotan, and we have already done our best. If we stay, sooner or later we will be in trouble, mother, we will have to hurry. Xie Shuning leaned into Song's arms, lazily smoked by the melting warmth in the room.

It's the middle of winter, and when they get to Kyoto, the spring flowers are blooming and the days are warm.

Xie Yuanmao's letter said that it was obviously impossible to let them go home before the end of the year. But the later it is delayed after the year, the more troublesome it will be to return home at that time.

She has the heart to take her time, but her brother is still in Beijing, and she is reluctant to let him look forward to disappointment.

Song then sighed, "It's okay, it's a meeting in Pingshui, and we can't help them." ”

That's what it sounds like!

Xie Shuning smiled and continued to wipe his hair, closed his eyes and pretended to sleep.

About a quarter of an hour later, Turan came to say that Scar had returned and was waiting to see her.

This was whispered, and it was not heard by the Song family. Xie Shuning said a few things he wanted to eat, and he was half coquettish and asked the Song family to think about it.

Song went downstairs to find the proprietress .

She hurried to see Scar.

Scar paced back and forth, and when he saw her face, he said, "Miss, those people are very strange. ”

Xie Shuning said: "Oh? How so? ”

"I did as you said to 'send' them, and of course they wouldn't let me send them. He left me in a few steps out of the house. But I knew this place much better than they did, and I chased after it in a moment. I followed them all the way for a long time. But they did not enter the inn. I wanted to get closer, but I almost told them to find out, so I just came back. ”

"They're still looking for someone?"

"Yes, I'm looking for two young men, who are Han."

"Don't think about it, it's those two people you're looking for." Xie Shuning lowered her eyes. "It's really a big problem, but fortunately, people will already run away on their own."

Scar wiped the sweat from his forehead, "In my opinion, this place is not suitable for a long time." Why don't we rest for a day, prepare supplies, and set off on our way? It doesn't hurt to stay a few more days at the next stop to recuperate. ”

Xie Shuning agreed, nodded in agreement, and then asked Scar to send additional men to take turns to keep vigil, and be careful.

"Those two people, do you need to find them?" Scar hesitated, but still asked.

Xie Shuning shook her head and muttered, "There are many people looking for them." Since we are out of the inn, it has nothing to do with us. After a pause, she raised her eyes to look at Scar, her eyes shining like stars in the sky, "If they come back, they just—"

She reached out and made a horizontal gesture around her neck.

Scar looked at it, and the spirit shivered, and stumbled in response.

Looking at Xie Shuning's departing back, he couldn't help muttering in his heart, looking at the delicate and weak little girl, how could she talk about killing without even blinking her eyes.

This problem was not until they successfully left the ancient city of Khotan, entered Yuguan, and began to go to Kyoto, Scar couldn't come up with a reason.

After the two teenagers said goodbye, they never appeared again, as if they had evaporated from the world, and no one could find them.

Xie Shuning and his entourage set off on the road the next day.

After that, along the way, it really calmed down.

There were no people who broke into the camp in the middle of the night, and there were no weirdos looking for people.

In the rest of the journey, only fatigue remained.

A long journey is always exhausting.

After entering Kyoto, they stopped staying at the inn and began to stay at the inn, and the pace of returning home was much faster.

But Rao was like this, and by the time they entered Kyoto, spring had already arrived. Along the way, everywhere you can see is green, peach blossoms are in full bloom, and pear blossoms are like snow.

It's getting warmer.

Xie Shuning went to the thick cotton clothes and began to change into a light spring shirt.

The pale and weak she brought back from Dunhuang seemed to have faded a little because of this bright spring day, and her face was ruddy.

Song was deeply comforted.

But I don't know if it's because they are more timid because of their hometown, and when they are about to go back to Xie's house, their pace can't help but slow down.

Scar and his party were placed in the house purchased in the name of Yun Zhan's master and apprentice when Song Yanzhao came to Kyoto last time, and Xie Shuning's mother and daughter changed to a carriage and began to rush to Shijing Hutong.

The carriage swayed, and Xie Shuning couldn't help but think of the time when they first entered Beijing many years ago.

When they arrived at the main entrance, the curtain was lifted, and Turan, who was not used to sitting in a carriage, almost rushed out as if he were fleeing, bluffing the little man guarding the door.

Just as he was about to ask, he saw that Song's mother and daughter were helped out of the carriage one after another, and they were stunned for a moment, and only after a while did they come back to their senses and shouted urgently: "Mrs. Six and Miss Eight are back!" (To be continued......)
