Quietly on the road, there are not many people with him.

Tell Bai Bing not to tell Qi Lichen, Bai Bing hesitated for a while and agreed.

Xi Muyun was relieved.

In order to prevent those Jianghu people from noticing their movements, when Xi Muyun left, he deliberately did not alarm anyone, and there were very few people to stay, Cuiyun and Bai Bing were enough.

They took the official road, and there were smooth roads all the way, but Xi Muyun didn't suffer too much from the bumps in the carriage.

Chengzhou is much more lively and prosperous than I imagined, and the trade routes here are accessible, and it has become the most prosperous city near the border.

Xi Muyun originally wanted to come here to inquire about the volcanic ash, but he didn't expect that as soon as he arrived in Chengzhou, he saw a familiar figure at the city gate.

He was wearing a dark green costume embroidered with copper coin patterns, and he looked like he had a sense of wealth.

Xi Muyun subconsciously glanced at Bai Bing.

Bai Bing said that he was innocent, but he didn't say anything.

Xi Muyun shrugged his shoulders, thinking about it, Qi Lichen's eyes were all over the world, how could he not know his little movement?

"You are dressed like this...... Xi Muyun couldn't get used to it.

Qi Lichen smiled, "Isn't it good?" ”

"It's really inconsistent with your usual appearance, not to mention that you didn't go to ......" Xi Muyun deliberately didn't point out those words, after all, there are many people here, and it's not good to be heard by others, "Aren't you afraid of being too ostentatious?" ”

"The more cautious it is now, the more noticeable it becomes." Qi Lichen smiled and said, "Are you here because you miss me?" ”

"Don't be three days, you should be impressed." Xi Muyun couldn't help but cover his mouth and smile, deliberately lowered his voice and said, "You also know how to tease me?" ”

An extremely abnormal expression appeared on Qi Lichen's face, "Don't say this in public. ”

"When should that be said?" Xi Muyun didn't intend to let him go so easily.

Qi Lichen cleared his throat and changed the topic, "I'm tired from the journey, I'll take you to the place where you stay." ”

Xi Muyun looked around, and it shouldn't be possible to do these things in a day, but fortunately, Chengzhou is not far from Yanzhou, where the flood occurred.

If the volcanic ash can be found at that time, it will not be so time-consuming and laborious to transport it from here.

When I got to the place where I stayed, it was a restaurant, which looked luxurious, but it was also in line with Qi Lichen's temperament of 'wealthy'.

It's high-end here, there are no messy people, and it's clean, Xi Muyun is quite satisfied.

Qi Lichen instructed the shopkeeper to let them cook some dishes and send them over, all of which were local specialties.

After cleaning out all the idle people, Qi Lichen asked, "What are you doing in Chengzhou?" ”

"I've heard that there was an active volcano here many years ago." Xi Muyun said, "Have you ever heard of it?" ”

Qi Lichen thought about it carefully, "It seems that there is, but outside the city, far away, you are here for this active volcano?" What are you looking for this volcano? ”

Xi Muyun thought that this was also a good thing for the benefit of the country and the people, and he said it bluntly.

"In that book, there is a material called cement, which is a mixture of lime and volcanic ash, which is very strong and can withstand the corrosion of fresh water, so this material is the best material for building river embankments."

Qi Lichen thought about this, and frowned slightly, "Did you come to you?" ”

Xi Muyun happily admitted, "Yes." ”

"Even if I begged you for this, you shouldn't have to go far away, how dangerous it is along the way." Qi Lichen said worriedly. The whole book

"I've never seen such a beautiful river and mountain, and there's nothing wrong with coming out for a walk." Xi Muyun pushed open the window, and there were green mountains in the distance, and the scenery was exceptionally good.

Where she used to live, where could she see such a beautiful scenery.

Qi Lichen smiled helplessly, "I really can't help you, if you go to find volcanic ash, I'm afraid you'll have to go into the mountain." ”

"As long as I confirm the location of the volcanic ash, the next thing will be done by the five princes themselves." Xi Muyun said that he would only help the five princes here.

Qi Lichen was relieved at this time, "Don't get too involved in the affairs of the court, take a wrong step and it will be an abyss." ”

Xi Muyun understands these truths, not to mention, how cruel the struggle for the throne is! She can also find out a thing or two from those history books.

She just wants to do her own business, and she doesn't want to get involved in these things.

She raised her hand and promised, "Don't worry, I know what is important." ”

Qi Lichen couldn't help but laugh when he saw that her expression was extremely serious.

The two looked at each other and smiled.

Naturally, there are a lot of things to say for the reunion, and after eating, the two talked for a long time in the room, and Qi Lichen reluctantly left.

Chengzhou is just a transit station, and in two days, he will have to leave.

Getting together in a hurry, and more often parting.

It's night, night falls, and the inky black sky is pounding heavily on the city of Chengzhou.

A few men dressed in ordinary coarse linen clothes were roasting over the fire, tearing at the freshly cooked meat.

"The tail is still following." The man in the dark green robe said to the man in the black robe.

The black-robed man seemed to be the leader of these people, and he didn't drink alcohol or eat meat, so he was extraordinarily calm, "The prime minister said, these people are the people of King Mujun, and it is not appropriate to make a quarrel, but these people are always troublesome, and they have been following, and we have no way to find the treasure according to the original plan." ”

"What then? We've already wasted too much time in Chengzhou, what if the people from Qingyu Pavilion get on the road first? The green-robed man said.

The black-robed man also had no idea for a while, getting up and stamping back and forth, while the others just ate and drank to their heart's content, waiting for orders from above.

The black-robed man is the leader of these people, so he naturally has to think about much more than others, and after a long time, he still can't make up his mind, and he sighed heavily and said: "I'll send a letter to the prime minister Feige, and ask the prime minister what he means, after all, it is about King Mujun, and it is not easy to deal with, if the matter is too much, it will be bad." ”

"Yes." The green-robed man said.

A letter has just been sent out by a pigeon.

In the silence of the night, there was a sudden noise.

The black-robed man was also good at martial arts, so he immediately noticed such a noise, and calmed down and asked, "Who?" ”

No one answered his words, and suddenly a dart shot in through the window, directly hitting a man in gray who was eating meat.

The dart hit the head, and the man in gray didn't even make a sound, and then he fell to the ground, his eyes as wide as brass bells, as if he didn't understand what was happening.

When a companion died tragically, all the men were on alert, and kept an eye out in a circle, lest another dart fly out of nowhere.

The black-robed leader sneered, "Your Excellency, why don't you come out and see you, I won't beat the turtle with a shrunken head." ”

As soon as the words fell, there was another sound outside, and the black-robed leader had good ears, and soon he could hear that they were surrounded.

There were all people around, but he couldn't tell how many there were.

The prime minister can't leave the capital, and assigning such a task to him is a trust in him, the black-robed man sank his heart, I'm afraid there will be a fierce battle tonight, but he is not afraid.

"Everyone stay together, pick up their swords, and keep an eye on them, as long as they can't get in, it's just daybreak." The man in black said that although the place where they lived was secluded, it was not remote, and so many people died without realizing it.
