The two of them walked on the mountain road like this, Jiao Xiao kept a distance of three or five steps behind Lin Yuebai, and cautiously paid attention to the surrounding situation. Although it was the height of summer, the afternoon should have been scorching, but there was a gust of mountain wind halfway up the mountain, but it was not hot. Lin Yuebai looked around, as if looking for something, and her eyes kept going back and forth between the mountains and rocks and trees. Jiao Xiao took out a water bag from his waist and handed it to her: "This is new, I haven't used it." It's a hot day, Sister Yuebai drink some water. ”

Lin Yuebai glanced at him, took the water bag but didn't open it immediately, and asked, "The third brother has also walked for so long, and he gave it to me, doesn't the third brother drink it himself?"

Jiao Xiao laughed, his skin was a little dark, but his teeth were extremely white, when he smiled, his white teeth were a little dazzling in the sun, he rubbed his hands and said: "I'm a rough man in the military, I'm used to the days of not eating or drinking, just a bag of water, it's okay." ”

Lin Yuebai looked at the water bag in his hand, this is a typical soldier's supplies, although it is new, it can still imagine all kinds of hardships and inconveniences on the way to the army from its simple and even somewhat simple appearance. Lin Yuebai suddenly remembered Li Yao, remembering that when he was still Jin Liancheng, he also resolutely left the palace of the Li Dynasty to join the Beiping Army in order to be with him, and then went to the dense forest. He also lived in the army, and must have had many difficult and difficult lives, she didn't know the hardships he had suffered, and she didn't accompany him for a day, was it because of these changes that he became what he is now......

Thinking about it, Lin Yuebai felt bitter in his heart, so he returned the water bag to Jiao Xiao and looked around carefully. After a while, she seemed to have finally found the direction and walked quickly towards a small forest, although Jiao Xiao on the side noticed Lin Yuebai's strangeness, but she didn't say that she didn't want to ask more, so she hurriedly followed her, and used her sword to block the branches in the woods that blocked Lin Yuebai's advance. Soon, the two of them passed through a small dense woods, and suddenly their eyes lit up, and beyond the woods, there was a clearing in front of the valley.

"There is such a place on the West Mountain-" Jiao Xiao was a little surprised, he crossed Lin Yuebai and strode forward, and after walking a few steps, he realized that the end of this open field was actually a cliff, and he turned his head to look at Lin Yuebai in confusion: "Sister Yuebai, you are here-"

Lin Yuebai bowed solemnly to Jiao Xiao, and said in a deep voice: "Today, Yuebai wants to meet someone here, and I hope that the third brother will stay here for me, and don't mention it to anyone, including my uncle and parents." ”

Jiao Xiao didn't answer immediately, he frowned slightly and looked at Lin Yuebai, as if he wanted to confirm something, staring straight at Lin Yuebai's eyes. When she didn't smile, Jiao Xiao's expression was serious and serious, such a look looked at Lin Yuebai's eyes, but she didn't dodge and avoid at all, her eyes were so gentle and good-looking, but the look in her eyes was as serious and serious as Jiao Xiao, and even a little persistent.

The two looked at each other like this for a while, and Jiao Xiao suddenly opened his mouth and said, "Okay." ”

Lin Yuebai breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, and said gratefully: "Thank you, third brother." ”

"In the future, you will call me Jiao Xiao. ”

Faced with Jiao Xiao's endless words, Lin Yuebai was stunned for a moment, and then laughed: "Okay." From then on, don't call me Sister Yuebai, just call me Lin Yuebai. ”

"Okay, Lin Yuebai, I'm here to guard for you, who do you want to see, go quickly." ”

"Thank you, Jiao Xiao. ”

Listening to his name coming out of Lin Yuebai's mouth, Jiao Xiao suddenly felt something in his heart pop open, and he watched Lin Yuebai's back turn to the other side of the cliff and disappear, and suddenly there was an indescribable melancholy in his heart.

And at this moment, Lin Yuebai, as her footsteps gradually approached the cliff, the smile on her face gradually disappeared, replaced by an indescribable heaviness and heartache. When she turned to the other side of the cliff, facing another bush, the mountain wind ran through the bushes, and a person walked out of the wind, the corners of his mouth were tightly pursed, and the posture of the whole person was vigilant and cautious, but the moment his eyes touched Lin Yuebai, he suddenly ran over quickly-

"Moon White!"

In the face of Li Yao's embrace, Lin Yuebai did not avoid it, but her face turned away, so that Li Yao hugged her for a long time before she felt the slight tremor on her body, and only then did she see her biting her lip tightly, as if she was going to bite blood. Her expression and her trembling were like a fine needle cutting hard through Li Yao's heart at this moment, causing him to panic for a moment, he didn't know what to say or do, he suddenly felt that in front of this person, everything he got seemed insignificant, he knew very well that she didn't care, he already knew that what she cared about was not this!

Seeing Li Yao's confusion, Lin Yuebai gradually calmed down, and she asked softly, "You...... You asked Ah Meng to send me a message, saying that we will meet here at this time today, and now that I am here, what do you want to say?"

Li Yao slowly let go of Lin Yuebai, he was silent, and he also calmed his emotions, originally he had prepared a lot of words, but at this moment he didn't know which one to say first, or rather, he felt that which sentence was not appropriate.

Seeing that he didn't speak, Lin Yuebai took a deep breath, took a step back and said, "Actually, I also have something to say to you." ”

"Then you speak first. ”

"I ...... I'm going back. ”

"Go back?" Li Yao repeated blankly, staring into her eyes and said, "Where to go back?"

"Go back to Xiaonanguo, go back, and be with Yao Jin. ”

The two words Yao Jin were like a basin of ice water that suddenly woke up Li Yao, and the corners of his mouth slowly showed a disdainful smile, and said coldly: "Yuebai, I told you that only being with me is your home, and Yao Jin-have you forgotten, I told you a long time ago that her little Nanguo will disappear after all." ”

"Even if—even if Xiao Nan disappears, Yao Jin won't. ”

"Then what are you going to do with her? She's a crazy person, are you going to wander with her?" Li Yao was a little inexplicably angry, and unconsciously reached out to grab Lin Yuebai's arm, but she quickly took a big step back and said quietly: "As long as you have a calm heart, no matter where you go, it's home; ”

"Are you saying that you are in the capital now, are you in prison? Lin Yuebai, do you mean that!"

In the face of Li Yao's terrifying roar, Lin Yuebai's heart became more and more cold. She looked at the person in front of her, she seemed to see Li Zheng's shadow in him, so where did the person who used to talk to her softly go? Where did Chen Cheng go? Lin Yuebai's eyes were a little moist, she gently grabbed the corner of Li Yao's clothes, stared into his eyes and said, "Chen Cheng, are you still Chen Cheng?" Are you Chen Cheng, Jin Liancheng, or Li Yao?"
