The early morning sun shone softly on the desert and the dark yellow city walls of the border pass, and curious people peeked out through the cracks in the doors and windows.

Two handsome young men sat on horses in brocade clothes, their postures were straight, and they cast a small shadow on the ground in the morning light, one of them had a bandage on his face, and the gauze from his chin was soaked with blood, and I don't know whether the bandaging person was unskilled or deliberate, the knot of gauze was just on the top of his head, and the gauze was ridged at both ends, looking like a rabbit from a distance, which was a little funny, but the atmosphere at the city gate was not funny at all.

The low bell rang twice, and the brightly colored door curtain was lifted by a large and thick palm.

It was a thick bronze palm, and if you looked closely, you could see that the palm of this one was covered with calluses, and the calluses were very thick, which were the traces of years of holding a knife.

The man wore a silver bracelet half a finger wide on his wrist, and a rare blood jade was embedded in the bracelet, which was transparent and lush, reflecting an extremely beautiful red, like a ripe and full pomegranate, which was breathtaking.

A silver bracelet shows how respectful its owner is.

The curtain was fully lifted, and a bearded face came into view.

There are also people with such appearances in Yuanzhaoguo, but such images mostly exist in unruly bandits and butchers, and the people in the carriage are completely different from them.

This person is over half a hundred years old, but he can't see any old age, the moment the door curtain is opened, the strong and tyrannical aura on this person roars out, he sits in the carriage, leans forward slightly and pokes his head out, and does not stand up completely, like a hill blocking the car door, the body shows his burliness.

There was a hideous scar on his face, which slashed from the left eyebrow bone to the bridge of his nose and extended to the right mandible, as if someone had stabbed his face in half.

If the wound had gone any deeper, his head would have been cut in half, and his brain would have cracked along with his flesh.

Suddenly he grinned slightly, revealing two rows of white sensen, raised his right hand, and pressed it against the ornament of some kind of raptor's sharp teeth hanging around his neck: "May peace and friendliness!" ”

He opened his mouth to speak an authentic and pure Yuanzhao Chinese, and the end note was even mixed with the unique charm of the people of the Imperial City.

If such a person appears in the Imperial City in a coarse cloth short, I am afraid it will not arouse anyone's suspicion!

Chu Huai'an was secretly frightened, his face tried to maintain calm, but Lu Halberd's brows frowned slightly, the last time he saw Kutar, Kutar was still full of chatter and said nonsense, the two armies need someone to translate against each other, how is the Chinese language so good now?

Chu Huai'an and Lu Ji had different faces, but Hu Tartar smiled more and more happily, Chu Huai'an didn't get off the horse to greet him, and he didn't mean to get off the carriage.

His gaze swept over Chu Huai'an, and then landed steadily on Lu Ji's body, inch by inch, like a hob, as if he wanted to pierce the muscles and bones wrapped in this hard flesh and blood.

He recognized Lu Ji, and when he saw that he was dressed in brocade but without the silver armor, he couldn't help but turn his head and glance in the direction of the city wall.

There was a tall and straight figure standing against the light on the city wall, too far away to see the man's face, only the golden armor on the man's body glowing dazzlingly, and the cloak raised a graceful arc in the air.

Suddenly, his eyes narrowed, as if he was pierced by the morning light, and as if he was stinged by the light and shadow refracted by the golden armor, he raised his hand and touched the bridge of his nose, and there was an uneven scar on the bridge of his nose, which was swung by the owner of the golden armor many years ago.

Almost sent him to Hades.

Suddenly, he hooked his tongue and swept between his lips and teeth, recalling the bloody slash that had collapsed into his mouth.

Meet again.

Thinking to himself, he took off the ornament of the teeth of the raptor from his neck and threw it at the city wall, his strength was great, and his aim was very accurate, and this greeting gift could fall into the man's arms with great precision.

However, as soon as the ornament was taken off, it was hooked back by a halberd, and the ornament connected with oil-soaked hemp rope turned around the tip of the halberd a few times, and fell steadily down the halberd to Lu Ji's hand.

Suddenly, Chu Huai'an jumped from the horse to the carriage without any rules with the two swaggering gauze on his head, and grabbed his hand: "Well! Put a concealer in front of Ben Hou? ”

“……”

Su Tatar's expression was a little stiff, Chu Lingzhao was too unexpected for him, after grabbing his hand, he looked very unceremoniously over his shoulder into the carriage, and whistled: "Princess Hu Wanyan, why didn't you say hello when you saw Ben Hou?" ”

His tone was quite relaxed and pleasant, and his eyes quickly swept over the carriage, confirming that there was no one else in the carriage except for Ku Tatar and Ku Wanyan, and he still wanted to go in and knock on it to see if there was a dark layer under the carriage.

Hu Wanyan was wearing the unique costumes of the Hu people, the short shirts were different from those of the Yuan Zhao Kingdom, their short beats had no sleeves, and they were shorter than normal clothes, revealing thin white arms and slender waists, and below were the same style of gauze skirts, the gauze skirts had several layers, and they were spread out layer upon layer, and a pair of tender white and delicate jade feet could be vaguely seen below.

Hu Wanyan wore a veil, delicate silver jewelry on her head, and a blood jade with blood beads on her forehead, which was much smaller than the blood jade on the bracelet, but the color was just as good, like the leftovers of the jade in Kutar.

"Hou Ye Wan'an."

Hu Wanyan spoke softly, and just like Hu Tartar, his right hand pressed on his left chest to salute.

Her voice is soft and translucent, with the lightness of a Yuanzhao woman, and the coolness of a Huren woman.

The veil blocked most of her face, revealing only a pair of big and round apricot eyes, her eyes were very clear, naturally refracting the water light, very aura, even more beautiful than the blood jade on her forehead.

This princess should be very good-looking, and she doesn't look like a Hu woman anymore.

Chu Huai'an thought with peace of mind, and then heard the sound of Qi brushing and drawing knives, and the Hu people who were guarding the carriage all the way became nervous, Chu Huai'an was too close to their king and princess, far beyond the safe distance.

Chu Huai'an hooked his lips, stood up in the wheel, and looked at the Hu warrior who was tense across the roof of the carriage: "I just said two words, don't be nervous!" ”

Hu Ren didn't withdraw the knife, still staring at him very vigilantly, Chu Huaian rolled his eyes and returned to his horse.

The carriage bell rang, and everyone retracted their knives in unison.

The tense atmosphere disappeared, and just as Kutar was about to put down the door curtain, Chu Huaian spoke again: "Wait!" ”

With Lu Ji by his side as a foil, he still looks very bohemian, not like a person who can do things seriously, suddenly raised his eyebrows, and the scar on the brow bone of his left eyebrow faintly overflowed with displeasure.

"Since the princess is going to come to Yuanzhao and kiss, then when she enters the border of Yuanzhao, she should follow the customs, no matter what the customs of your Hu people are, in Yuanzhao, women who want to marry are not allowed to contact men of the opposite sex, even if it is a father and brother, they must be avoided, so ......" Speaking of this, Chu Lingzhao paused for a moment and showed a pleasant smile: "Please get off the car!" ”

“……”

After Chu Huai'an's words fell, the atmosphere became stiff again, and no one drew their swords, but the sudden tense momentum of the sudden tatar made the nerves of everyone around him tense.

It is not the first time that the Hu people have sent envoys to Beijing, since the history books of the Yuanzhao Kingdom have been recorded, the frequency of the Hu people sending envoys to Beijing is not low, although this is the first time that the king of the Hu people and the princess have entered Beijing together, but they will not know the rules of the Yuanzhao Kingdom.

Knowing that you want to be with your relatives but still have to share a carriage, it's not normal to look at it.

The secular ethics of the Hu people are indifferent, and there are often cases where sons inherit their fathers and wives, and close relatives are combined.

"Where is the Hou Ye going to let this king get off the car and sit?"

Suddenly Tatar asked rhetorically, his eyes were nailed to Chu Huai'an like an eagle, Chu Huai'an moved his buttocks, and patted the buttocks of the mount under him: "If the king doesn't mind, Ben Hou's mount can be given to you." ”

“……”

The Hu people are a group that lives on horseback, and Kutar's riding skills are naturally the most superb in the entire tribe, but he is the king of the Hu people, and he is here in the name of harmony, what does it mean to ride a horse like these guards?

This is Yuan Zhao who wants to humiliate my face!

Thinking like this, his eyes became more and more fierce, he didn't move, and his hand holding the curtain tightened little by little, as if he would tear off the curtain of the car door if he was not careful.

As if he didn't notice his unhappiness, Chu Huai'an turned his chin, pulled the horse to the side of the carriage, patted the horse's neck affectionately and said, "Doesn't the king look down on Benhou's horse?" This horse is Ben Hou's bloodbathed bandits' den five years ago, after making great contributions, His Majesty personally gave Ben Hou the Western Regions Horse, if it were not for the king's identity, Ben Hou would never let anyone touch a single hair of it! ”

Lu Ji: "......"

Isn't this one of the horses you picked up from the stable this morning?

Hu Ren Warrior: "......"

Is this a BMW in the Western Regions? Don't you see that this horse is thin and weak, and that the spikes on the horse's hooves are about to fall?

Chu Huai'an was talking nonsense, even if everyone's expressions were written in disbelief, his expression did not change in the slightest.

Suddenly he touched his nose and smacked a little funny.

This is still in the border pass city, there is a huge Zhenbei army watching, it is the territory of Yuanzhao Kingdom, and it is not suitable for trouble.

Thinking of this, Kutar got out of the carriage.

As he came out, the curtain of the carriage hung down, blocking the view of the carriage, and he stood on the wheel, more like a towering mountain.

He's really too tall!

Chu Huai'an thought, not only tall, but also burly, twice as strong as the group of Hu warriors behind the carriage, Chu Huai'an doubted whether the bulging muscles on his body could be cut by the sword.

Suddenly, he stepped on the wheels of the chariot and leaped onto the horse.

I don't know if he was too heavy, or if he felt too dangerous, the horse pouted twice in fright, and almost kicked Chu Huai'an away with a hoof.

your grandma's legs!

Chu Huai'an scolded in his heart, took two steps back, suddenly grabbed the horse's reins to calm the horse, looked at Chu Huai'an condescendingly, and smiled heartily and unscrupulously: "Hou Ye, this horse is too timid, we are going to be expelled there, and there will be a chance in the future, let Hou Ye see what a real BMW is!" ”

"yes, thank you so much!"

Chu Huai'an said with a smile, and soon a horse came running with a clatter, Chu Huai'an turned over, came to the front of the team, and shouted in a deep voice: "Welcome the envoy to Beijing!" ”

When the words fell, the accompanying guards shouted in unison: "Welcome the envoy to Beijing!! ”

The voice was deafening, and it seemed that the soldiers on the city walls echoed it.

The carriage slowly moved forward again, and suddenly sat down on the horse's back, and quietly looked back at the golden touch of the city wall, and his eyes were dyed with a smile.

The reunion of the deceased always makes people happy.

However, before his smile could dissipate, a burning gaze locked on him, and his eyes turned, and he saw Lu Ji's young, cold and hard face, which had been tempered by the wind and sand, was extremely similar to the person standing on the city wall from skin and flesh to bone and blood.

Lu Ji didn't speak, just looked at him, as if he had just thrown the ornament around his neck unexpectedly but was intercepted.

Lu Ji was watching him, refusing to let go of his every move.

It's a bit tricky.

He squinted, like an elegant beast, pacing and walking into a country that seemed to be prosperous and powerful, but was in fact vulnerable, under the gaze of everyone.

The air in the Far Zhao Kingdom seemed to be much fresher and more fragrant than in their territory.

As he thought, a disgusted and critical voice suddenly sounded in his ears: "Is this a wild boar tooth?" What to do around your neck? Ward off evil? ”

When he opened his eyes, a funny man like a rabbit was walking side by side with him, holding the ornament he had just stopped.

It was the spoils of the years of war, and the fangs on it were all from the ferocious and bloodthirsty beasts, which hung around their necks to show their bravery to others, and it was a provocation to throw them to his opponent, because he would kill that person and take back the string of his belongings.

If the opponent is strong enough, he will also consider pulling a tooth from the opponent's mouth and stringing it on after killing the opponent.

But now, such a thing is held in the hands of a person who doesn't seem to understand the connotation at all, and he still dislikes his ugly things between words.

Suddenly, Tartar's heart twitched, and he looked at Lu Ji, wanting to ask Lu Ji why he threw this to a fool, and there was a slight cracking sound in his ears.

He had worn it since he was a teenager, and the ornament that accompanied him from birth to death, which grew heavier and became heavier, was cut off by an unusually delicate and delicate dagger.

“……”

The next moment, he saw Chu Huai'an tearing off a beast tooth from it like a child destroying a newly acquired toy, and the thing drew a graceful arc in the air, and accurately fell into the mouth of a stray dog on the street, the dog spit out a big tongue, and Hu Tartar even heard him rattle the beast tooth crunch.

“……”

The nerve in his brain broke with a bang, and just as he wanted to move, Chu Huai'an suddenly looked up at him, his face full of sincerity: "Your Majesty, have you taken a fancy to this blackiron dagger in Benhou's hand?" ”

"I ......"

Lao Tzu has taken a fancy to your neck!

Suddenly, Tartar wanted to roar, but Chu Huai'an interrupted him with a tangled expression: "Benhou has already ceded the BMW of the Western Regions to the king, this dagger was given to me by the emperor's cousin, I can't give it to you for the time being, I'll send you on the day you leave Beijing!" ”

As he spoke, the expression on his face changed from hesitation to determination, as if he had struggled a lot to decide to give the dagger.

Suddenly Tartar almost couldn't hold back the peace on his face, and a soft whisper suddenly came from the carriage: "Master Hou, can you bother you to give me what you have in your hand?" It was something that my father cherished. ”

Suddenly Wanyan spoke, and the request made by such a voice made people would not want to refuse.

Chu Huai'an turned around, and suddenly Wanyan was lifting the carriage curtain to look at him.

After staring at each other for a moment, Chu Huai'an woke up and raised the broken thing in his hand, and apologized very perfunctorily: "So this is something very important?" I thought the king would throw it away if he didn't want it, sorry! ”

After saying sorry, Chu Huaian threw it lightly and threw the thing at Hu Wanyan, who raised his hand slightly, and a plain white wrist drew a graceful arc in the air, hooked it steadily, and then quickly sat back in the carriage.

It's just such a light movement, I can't tell if she can do martial arts, and what her skills are.

Chu Huai'an retracted his gaze, ignored the gaze of Kutar who wanted to eat people, and said earnestly: "Your Majesty, it's better not to throw such an important thing everywhere in the future, if it weren't for Benhou's subordinates to help you stop it, wouldn't you be unable to find it back?" ”

“……”

Suddenly, his gaze swept over Chu Huai'an like a knife two or three times, and finally returned to the endless road ahead.

Perhaps, he shouldn't look down on this Hou Ye who seems to be very careless.

At the same time, the largest fireworks place in Suzhou City, Liuxian Pavilion.

Su Li and Zhao Qi used the same rhetoric to ask for a room in Liuxian Pavilion as they did in Xunzhou.

Suzhou and Xunzhou are only a day's journey, Su Li didn't want to stay here, but the lightning and thunder outside the house couldn't rush at all, so she could only go to the city to rest.

The clothes on the body were wet, Su Li and Zhao Qi took turns bathing, changed into clean clothes, Su Li put a little medicine on the palm of her hand, because of the hurry, the blister that was pinched did not heal even if she was medicated, but was covered with a little inflammation, pain and itching.

Su Li frowned, the doors and windows were crackled by the stronger and stronger wind and rain, as if the entire attic was swaying in the wind and rain, and the sky was overcast as much as the night, pressing on people's hearts, bringing a strong sense of unease.

"I'm afraid the rain won't stop today."

Zhao Qi said that the rain was so strong that water had seeped into the cracks in the windows.

"Then wait until the rain stops before leaving." Su Li whispered, using the light in the room, gently wiped the wet hand bones with a dry handkerchief.

The light was a little dim, and her concentration on rubbing a white Sensen's hand bone was actually quite scary, and if it had been someone else, I would have screamed a long time ago.

"After you and He'er returned to Beijing, have you seen my second sister?"

Su Li asked, her mind was empty when she was in a hurry, and there was only one thought, that is, to move forward quickly, preferably faster, once she stopped, many old things could not be controlled in her mind.

There was only Zhao Qi by her side, and she could only communicate with him.

After traveling day and night for many days, Su Li lost a lot of weight, she wiped the white bones very gently, and her fingertips were not much fatter than the white bones.

Zhao Qi lifted his eyes to see her movements and did not rush to answer, the room was quiet, only the sound of wind and rain remained.

Su Li didn't care, stared at Bai Gu and continued: "The second sister shouldn't have married Zhang Ling at that time, if He'er comes back, the second sister will definitely not sit idly by, she ......"

"It was she who found a way to let me blend in with the Hou Ye's team and go to the bandits' den to find you." Zhao Qi said abruptly, Su Li's action of wiping her hand bones paused, she lowered her head slightly, her face was slightly shadowed, and she couldn't see her expression clearly: "If you don't go to me, won't He'er and the child in her womb be killed?" ”

The question was asked so abruptly that even the wind and rain outside the house seemed to have weakened a bit.

If Zhao Qi hadn't left He'er five years ago, He'er wouldn't have been arrested in Shangshu Mansion, at least not so easily.

"Nope."

I don't know how long it took, Zhao Qi replied.

Su Li raised his head to look at him, and he added seriously and calmly: "There is no if." ”

The dim light made the best camouflage cover for each other's eyes, and no one could see what the truest emotions were surging under each other's eyes.

"When the rain stops, do you want to rest for a while?" Su Li took the initiative to break the silence and asked, Zhao Qi raised his foot and hooked a stool, relaxed his body slightly and sat by the window, so that he began to rest.

Su Li didn't speak again, wrapped her hand bones and stuffed them into her arms and lay on the bed.

The bed of Liuxian Pavilion is not as soft as Xunmenglou, but it has an elegant fragrance, like some unknown floral fragrance, which is light and harmless, and it is easy to relax.

The body is weak, the brain is confused and falls into a dream, but the consciousness is still struggling and there is still a trace of lucidity.

The dream was bizarre, in the midst of a shadow and shadow, a very slight squeak of pushing the door suddenly pierced, like a knife, tearing the dream alive, Su Li opened her eyes suddenly, her body broke out in a cold sweat, I don't know how long she slept, the sound of wind and rain outside the house had disappeared, and there was a wooden box on the table that was suspected to contain a painting scroll, and Zhao Qi was not in the house.

Su Li's heart jumped, and she didn't check what was in the wooden box, so she didn't care about putting on her shoes, and took out a dagger from under the pillow and chased her out of the room.

It was the beginning of the night again, because it had just rained, the air was full of moist coolness, and the business of Liuxian Pavilion had not yet begun to be lively, and the girls began to dress up and prepare to attract customers, Su Li stood at the door and quickly swept downstairs.

She was sure that she had just heard the door pushing, and that the person who had delivered the things had just walked out.

Where is he?

Su Li tried to distinguish that her brain that had just woken up was still a little ignorant because of sleepiness, she stepped on the floor hard, and took advantage of the pain in her palm to make herself completely awake.

"Ouch! I don't have long eyes! Hit the old lady to death! ”

A girl on the first floor near the door screamed loudly, Su Li grabbed the railing with her hand, and jumped down from the second floor lightly and silently, the person was wearing a gray short hat and walked out of the door around the girl.

With a fixed gaze, Su Li quickly followed.

When I went out, the cool drizzle hit my face, the rain was still falling, and the ground was slippery.

Su Li didn't mind, she quickly followed the man, she didn't say anything to stop, the man didn't speak, just sped up his steps, he found Su Li, and it also proved that Su Li was following the right person!

The heartbeat increased slightly, Su Li chased after him, and after walking through two streets, the man turned into an alley, Su Li didn't want to follow immediately, and just stepped into the alley, a cold wind came to her face.

Su Li subconsciously leaned back and knelt down, sliding forward for some distance through the slippery ground, the man kicked his legs on the walls on both sides of the alley, holding a big knife in his hand, if Su Li hadn't dodged quickly, the knife should have cut off her head.

The blow missed, the man fell to the ground lightly with the knife, Su Li raised his hand and slapped it on the ground, stood up with his strength, and looked at the man.

That person was very tall, his body was much taller than the average man from Yuanzhaoguo, his facial features were even taller and deeper, and his eyes were wrapped in murderous intent, which was very similar to the figure of the person who had covered and kidnapped Su Zhaoyue in the other courtyard before.

Hu people?

Such a conjecture immediately popped up in Su Li's mind, and the next moment, the person had already attacked with a dagger.

The other party is holding a big knife, and the weapon has a slight advantage, but Su Li is a woman, and her body is more flexible and soft, and after dodging the big knife attack at close range, she can gain the upper hand.

The rain gradually began to fall again, and the sound of dripping water drowned out the sound of weapons clashing.

Zheng!

There was another crisp sound, Su Li used a dagger to block the blade chopped down by the head, slowed down the opponent's attack, and finally got close, Su Li stabbed at the wrist of his right hand, and the big knife fell to the ground, Su Li immediately hugged the man's waist with one hand, and plunged the dagger into the opponent's shoulder blade with the other.

The dagger was very sharp, and the position she was looking for was also very accurate, and the dagger was not hindered in any way and was deeply inserted into the person's body, Su Li was just about to hold the dagger and twist it twice, and the man's left hand suddenly moved.

Su Li was keenly aware of the danger and quickly retreated, the man pulled out a scimitar from his waist, the scimitar was very bright, sharper than a dagger, even if Su Li had retreated very quickly, he still didn't avoid it, his clothes were torn, the skin on his abdomen hurt sharply, and then warm blood gushed out.

Su Li took two steps back to stabilize her figure, lowered her head, her abdomen was soaked in blood, and the wound was a little deep, but fortunately it was not so deep that her intestines flowed out.

Su Li quickly tore off the hem of her clothes and wrapped the wound twice, and the man didn't rush to attack, he raised his hand and touched his back.

Su Li's position was too tricky, he couldn't touch it, and he couldn't pull out the dagger.

Su Li lost her weapon, her eyes fell on the knife on the ground, and the man discovered her intentions, raised his foot and kicked the knife out of the alley, breaking Su Li's thoughts.

Blood gushed out of the wound little by little, and then it was washed away by the rain, and the pain seemed to be isolated, Su Li looked at the person in front of her, and there were two points of happiness in her heart.

Fortunately, there was only one, and if there was another one, she would probably have a hard chance of winning.

Each other was injured, and the next time they met together, it would be the line of life and death, Su Li took two deep breaths, and like that person, she silently accumulated strength.

I don't know how long it took, but the knife in the man's hand moved, then the body and feet.

He was tall, professionally trained, and moved much faster than the average person, and his speed seemed to be completely unaffected by the dagger.

Su Li also moved immediately, she ran forward two steps, and when the scimitar blade hit her eyes, a downward slash passed under the man's crotch by inertia, and came to the place where the knife had fallen just now.

There was a puddle of stagnant water, which Su Li only noticed when the man kicked the knife away.

The man's reaction was quick, and he quickly turned around, and almost at the same time, Su Li swept the man's foot of water.

There was mud and sand in the water, and the man subconsciously raised his hand to block his eyes, it was this gap, Su Li came behind the man, grabbed the handle of the dagger and twisted it hard, then pulled it out and inserted it into the side of the man's neck.

As if he had been pointed, the man's movements froze and he lost his reaction.

Su Li pulled out the dagger, and the blood spurted like a pillar at once, and then it was overwhelmed and diluted by the increasing rain.

After a while, the man fell straight back, splashing on the ground, Su Li didn't even frown, squatted down in front of the man, raised the bone of his right hand, and chopped off the piece of meat.

The rain blurred her vision, but she didn't hesitate or pause in the slightest.

I don't know how long it took, there was a sound of hurried footsteps outside the box, and the next moment, Zhao Qi appeared at the entrance of the alley.

Su Li glanced at him, turned around again, and slashed off the hand bones that had been scraped to bones.

After doing all this, Su Li got up to face Zhao Qi, he looked at Su Li calmly, as if he didn't see the corpse, and asked in a deep voice, "Why did you come out?" If you listen carefully, there is even a hint of concern in his tone.

Where have you been?

Su Li wanted to ask, but before she could ask, Zhao Qi had already taken off her coat and wrapped it around her waist: "You are injured, I will take you to the hospital immediately." ”

After Zhao Qi finished speaking, he picked up Su Li, Su Li didn't struggle, and glanced over his shoulder at the mouth of the dark alley.

She thought she would always pay it back.

As long as she still has a breath of air, she will always help return the humiliation suffered by the second sister.

Now it's just the beginning......

Su Li's wound was a little deep, only almost hurting the intestines under the belly, and the doctor who treated her thought that Zhao Qi was Su Li's father-in-law, and counted him hard.

Zhao Qi bowed his head and scolded, did not refute, waited for the doctor to help Su Li bandage it, prescribed a prescription, and carried Su Li back to Liuxian Pavilion.

Back in the room, the wooden box was still there, Su Li was already prepared, and reached out to open it, but was stopped by Zhao Qi.

"I've seen it, it's an arm."

"Really?"

Su Li responded, her expression was very calm, and she stubbornly broke away from Zhao Qi's hand to open the box.

There was indeed an arm in the box, the carrion on the arm had not been removed, it emitted a foul smell, and there were unbroken sleeves on it, which Su Zhaoyue wore on the day she entered the coffin.

The arm is neatly cut off from the shoulder to the wrist bone, and the incision is flat.

Su Li took out the carefully kept hand bone and put it into the incision of the arm, and the two were perfectly connected.

Second sister, I'll rip An Jue!

Don't worry, I'll kill him!

Su Li repeated it over and over again in her heart, but closed the wooden box without any change in expression on her face.

The rain stopped in the second half of the night, and the eaves were still dripping, so Su Li and Zhao Qi set off again.

They are still far from the border and cannot afford to delay.

Fortunately, leaving from Fuzhou, the weather was very fine in the next few days, in order to make up for the delay in Fuzhou, Su Li and Zhao Qi did not stop when they passed through Dingzhou, and rushed for eight days in one go, until they exhausted the last drop of water in the kettle, and then stopped in Gongzhou.

Gongzhou is only three days away from the border pass, said to be the state city, but not much bigger than Longxi County, too far away from the imperial city, here the fish and dragons are mixed, and the local snake even overwhelmed the state government.

As soon as they entered the city, Su Li keenly felt that they were being targeted.

The person who followed them did not have very good skills, Su Li and Zhao Qi quietly walked around the city, and the person who followed lost his target, turned around on the street and left.

"Ahem!"

Su Li coughed twice and hurried for days, her wound had some complications and had been burning for two days.

"Let's go to the hospital first!"

After Zhao Qi finished speaking, he wanted to help Su Li, but Su Li raised his hand and refused: "Find a place to settle down first." ”

The place to settle is still the place to find fireworks, but Gongzhou is more desolate, and the land of fireworks is not built with high-rise buildings, but hidden underground, mixed with underground gambling houses, and the relationship inside is more complicated.

If there is no backer, then the bustard and his buddies are also ruthless people, if you want to make trouble here, you always have to work harder than in other places, which is why Su Li has chosen to settle in the land of fireworks all the way.

The environment of the underground gambling house is very bad, Su Li coughed even more as soon as she entered here, and the two of them smashed out most of the remaining coils on their bodies before booking a room, and after entering the room, the other party quickly sent hot water and food.

However, there is only one pot of hot water, and the rice is only four white flour steamed buns and two bowls of porridge with clear soup and little water.

I couldn't count on taking a bath, so Su Li twisted the handkerchief and simply cleaned the wound and changed the medicine again.

The wound was a little festering, and the condition was not very good, but it was able to hold on.

Calculating the time, Chu Huai'an and Lu Ji should have received the envoy group on the way back to Beijing, the envoy group escorted the princess and the king, they couldn't walk much in a day, and there were many people, if nothing else, maybe Su Li and Zhao Qi would be able to meet them tomorrow or the day after tomorrow.

This is in the absence of accidents, Su Li knows very well that accidents will definitely happen.

An Jue played tricks all the way, like a cat teasing a mouse, and when the time came, he would want to slap the mouse to death with one paw, not to mention that Su Li also wrangled the tip of one of his claws in Yuzhou.

With An Jue's temperament, he would never let Su Lishun meet Chu Huai'an smoothly.

In what way will he see himself?

Will you make a fool of yourself and let someone send some corpse remains, or will you bring the corpse to see you in person?

Or will he have someone tie him up?

"Let's eat something first, your wound is infected, you can rest here in a while, I'll go to the hospital to help you get some medicine and come back."

Zhao Qi said and handed a steamed bun to Su Li, Su Li took it, drank two mouthfuls of porridge before eating it in small bites, she had a fever, she actually didn't want to eat at all, but she had to store her strength.

An Jue is about to appear soon, and she can't fall at this time.

Forcing herself to eat half a steamed bun, Su Li really couldn't eat, she walked to the edge of the bed and sat down, the hard bed made a squeaky sound, she was a little sleepy, but this bed dispelled her desire to sleep.

Zhao Qimo got up silently and walked out, and when he walked outside the door, Su Li called in a hoarse voice: "Lord Zhao!" Zhao Qi turned around for some reason, and Su Li licked her somewhat chapped lips and said, "Be careful on the road!" ”

Her throat had been burned before, and it had never recovered, and now that she had a fever, her voice was naturally even more unpleasant.

She said these four words very slowly, as if because her throat was very dry, and it was mixed with hardship when she said them, which made Zhao Qi's face flash a moment of apprehension, but it was only for a moment that he returned to normal, bowed his head slightly, and then strode away.

As soon as he left, Su Li's shoulders immediately collapsed, and she fell on the bed softly as if she had lost support, her breathing was a little short, and the breath she exhaled was a little hotter.

Su Li rolled over and lay on her side, her back to the door, and hugged the package she was carrying cross-body.

Second sister, wait, I will be able to avenge you soon......

Gongzhou is not a wealthy city on the surface, but there is the largest black market empire in Yuanzhao Kingdom underground, where some people resell weapons, some people sell things used by the court of the previous dynasty, and of course, there are killers who sell them at a clear price.

The underground here is like a labyrinth, because there is no light, it is lit all year round, day and night, no matter what time you enter here, as long as you have enough money, you can buy what you want.

Su Li has been here once, when she arrived at the border from Kyoto five years ago, Lu Ji brought her here.

At that time, Lu Ji came in in with a regular dress to conceal his identity, this place is a gray area of three things, if An Jue wants to hide, this is the best place to hide.

If An Jue was here, stepping into Gongzhou from Su Li, he should already know about Su Li's existence.

With his character, he will not let go of the object of revenge in front of him.

Su Li thought a little, and the door suddenly made a soft sound, and Su Li's body tensed suddenly, but she didn't move.

A moment later, a moist silk handkerchief with a strange smell covered Su Li's mouth and nose.

It's a drug!

Su Li hurriedly held her breath, relaxed her body as much as possible, and pretended that she was unconscious.

After a while, the silk handkerchief was taken away, and Su Li felt that someone had picked her up.

The man's solid shoulders and the arm hanging diagonally on his body happened to be at the wound in his waist and abdomen, and Su Li could clearly feel that the wound had reopened and blood was gushing out.

She didn't say anything, trying to keep her breathing at a steady rate, and someone carried her forward briskly, with a clear goal around one bend after another, I don't know how long it took, the hustle and bustle of the dungeon was thrown far away.

The man's steps slowed down, and then Su Li felt as if he was carrying himself up.

Su Li opened her eyes cautiously, her vision was a little dim, and after getting used to it for a while, she saw a familiar short shirt.

The clothes are made of rough cotton and linen, which is actually very uncomfortable to wear, especially if you are on a journey like this day and night, your body will be worn out by the clothes, and it hurts everywhere.

"Lord Zhao, where do you want to take me?"

Su Li's mouth opened, and the sharp dagger was against Zhao Qi's neck, as long as she used a little force, Zhao Qi would die like the one on a rainy night in Yuzhou.

"You're not dizzy?"

Zhao Qi's voice was very calm, and he didn't panic at all when he was caught, Su Li's hand tightened again, and the tip of the knife pierced Zhao Qi's neck by an inch.

"Nope."

"When did you start doubting me?"

"It started by asking Your Majesty if you want to accompany me on this journey."

"Since you have already started to doubt, you shouldn't have asked me the question just now, didn't County Lord Su want to see An Zhuwei? Xia Guan is about to take you to meet him. ”

Zhao Qi replied, his voice was very steady, and he was sure that Su Li would not kill him at this time.

The tip of the knife did not enter a single point, and Su Li heard his voice that was so cold that there was no trace of warmth: "He won't come to see me easily, tell me where he will hide to watch you execute me?" ”
