Fan Dajian went around in a big circle, and even went to the Yamen of Xingdusi, and finally got some news.

"There were more displaced people rushing out of the mountains than expected, and all of them were like madmen, beating the officers and soldiers to the ground. It is said that the remnants of the officers and soldiers retreated to a hill and were waiting for rescue, but Yuan Mao did not return for a long time, either trapped or ...... Anyway, it's not good. ”

Fan Dajian has a good relationship with Yuan Mao and cares about his safety.

"There is a Dan cave in the valley, the officers and soldiers should want to take it back, right?"

"The problem is here, the displaced people also want the Dan Cave, take the first step to occupy it, leave people to defend it, and send a large number of people to fight for the Dan Cave in the village a little south, and the officers and soldiers are deadlocked. Alas, the imperial court was careless, and there were not enough officers and soldiers sent to ...... Why is your stomach bleeding again? ”

Hu Guiyang's lower abdomen had an old wound, which ruptured again last night, and although it had to be bandaged, it never completely stopped the bleeding, "It's really troublesome, and I still need your medicinal powder." ”

Fan Dajian's medicine bottle has always been carried with him, and he immediately gave it to Hu Guiyang, and after processing it, he asked, "What about Yuan Mao?" Would you like to talk to the garrison? ”

Hu Guiyang shook his head, "It's useless to look for him, it's almost dark, let's go to the village in the north of the city early tomorrow morning, we have to find Captain Shi, he may have a way." ”

Although Shi Guida's position is low, he can ask for officials for many people in the rivers and lakes, and he must also win a lot of power for himself.

Fan Dajian nodded, and stopped talking.

"What's wrong?"

"Captain Shi is your brother-in-law, and I can't help, so ...... I want to go somewhere else. ”

"You're still going to rob Jindan?"

"Hey, there are officers and soldiers everywhere, how can I have a chance? I think...... Go find the corpse of He Million, you really killed him, right? ”

"Unless it's a corpse."

"Roughly where?"

"I can't remember how far I walked upstream from Xiaogui Island, about four or five miles, and then into the meadow."

Fan Dajian nodded, "The range is not too big, I'll go and take a look, and bring his head back while it's not rotten." ”

"It's my fault that I didn't take a head."

"It's no one's fault, you never had the idea of meritorious service in your heart, if I hadn't been tempted by Jin Dan last night and left with you, this kind of thing wouldn't have happened. Forget it, I'll look for it, and I'll be back before dark tomorrow. ”

"Well, there you go." Hu Guiyang looked at the background of Fan Dajian's hurried departure, and knew that he couldn't keep him.

There were not a few people left in the West Garden, and Zhang Wuchen also came to say goodbye, "When I left Tongzhou, I was very reluctant, but it turns out that you are right, I should come, I must come, this is my fate, if you are willing to let me go......"

"You can leave." Hu Guiyang smiled, not trying to stop it at all.

Zhang Wuchen looked surprised, "Uh...... I was going to say ...... Forget it, since you agree, then I will leave, thank you for bringing me, I owe you a favor. If I can survive the catastrophe on July 15, I will definitely repay you. ”

"I wish you success in the tribulation, and I will not send it far away."

Zhang Wuchen clasped his fists and saluted, and walked away happily.

Even Qian Gong and the other three entourages left, only to say goodbye to Lord Shaobao, Hu Guiyang walked around the garden, and found no figures, only to know that they had left.

The merchant was still there, locking himself in the cabin and enjoying the steamer-like heat.

Before dark, the servants of the prefect's yamen brought dinner, and Hu Guiyang ate downstairs alone, without knowing the taste.

After the servant packed up the dishes and chopsticks and left, Hu Guiyang sat on the stool in a daze, did not light the lamp, and let the darkness swallow him up little by little.

Xiaocao ate upstairs, slowly went downstairs, stopped halfway through, and sat on the steps, also in a daze.

It was getting darker and darker, and Hu Guiyang opened the door and felt much cooler.

"What about the two gnomes?" Hu Guiyang asked, almost nothing could be seen anyway, so as to avoid the trouble of looking up for someone.

"Let's go, I'll be back tomorrow. Ah Yin said that he was going back to his home, and he didn't know where his home was. ”

Probably underground, Hu Guiyang didn't say his guess and continued to sit.

"What are we going to do next? Have you found a clue to what a million? ”

"I've killed him."

"What?" Xiaocao stood up and sat down slowly, "You said you wouldn't let me come with you, I really shouldn't have come, there's nothing I can do here, even the adults who protect me are fake." It's ridiculous, when I saw the real adult outside, I thought about saying hello to him, but he didn't even look at me, and I suddenly remembered that he hadn't seen me at all. ”

"That's because he wasn't lucky."

"Hehe, Brother Hu is really good at talking, but I still feel that I am useless, my sister is right, I should always stay in the mountains and ...... forever"

"Grass."

"Huh?"

"Can you promise me one thing?"

"I'm not fooled, you tell me what's going on first."

"Don't touch Jin Dan again under any circumstances, if someone gives it to you, throw it far away, don't even look at it."

"Can't even look at it?"

"No, if you see it, you want to get it, and if you want to get it, you will grab it."

"Hmm...... Okay, I'll listen to you. ”

"You don't want to know why?"

"Jindan is harmful, you said it a long time ago. It doesn't matter if it's harmless, if you say you don't touch it, I won't touch it. ”

Hu Guiyang couldn't help laughing.

"What did I say wrong? Are you kidding me? "Xiaocao is a little angry.

"No, no, I'm serious, and I'm grateful to you."

"Thank me for what?"

"Thank you...... So much trust in me. ”

Xiaocao didn't squeak, the two sat in silence for a while, Xiaocao said: "In Gaojia Village, no one has ever mentioned trust, it seems difficult to trust others after leaving the mountain, in your eyes, am I not stupid." ”

"One point, it's not very serious."

Xiaocao snorted, got up and walked upstairs, "I'm going to sleep, remember, you promised that you would take me with you wherever you go tomorrow." ”

"It's a deal."

Hu Guiyang found a temporary bed in the dark, and planned to wait forever, but as soon as he sat on the bed, he was sleepy, and felt that it was not worth waiting for something big, so he lay down and closed his eyes to sleep.

He didn't know how long he had been asleep, and he didn't know when he had one more person by his side, and what happened after that was like a dream, obviously shouldn't have happened, and once it happened, he was ecstatic.

If it was a dream, he hoped never to wake up.

If this is true, he hopes to hold it firmly in his hands and never give it up.

Neither wish came true.

Hu Guiyang opened his eyes and found that the people around him had left his arms and stood by the bed, as if they were about to be carried away by the night wind.

"Wait."

"I'm not leaving." It was the voice of Third Sister He, as calm as a neighbor who only nodded his head.

"Just now...... You...... Did you use the Celestial Trick on me? ”

"Do you need it?"

Hu Guiyang sat up, and there was no feeling of muscle soreness, "I don't understand......"

"It's nothing, I need a man, so I'm going to pick you."

"Hey, thanks to you, is this trick any good? Zhao Aqi and Wen Kuyu listened to Zhang Wuchen's nonsense, and there was no basis. ”

"It has some effect, but it may not cure the root cause, but I feel much better now." There was no warmth in Third Sister He'er's voice.

"I haven't taken Jindan...... As long as it works, I am willing to serve at any time. ”

Third Sister He did not respond.

Hu Guiyang felt a little frightened, and then impulsively, he said to the figure in front of him: "Come back to the capital with me, or go anywhere you want, let's get married......"

Third Sister He chuckled, "You are still the unambitious Hu Guiyang, since I deceived the jade pendant from you when I was a child, I have always felt that I owe you something, I thought I could easily throw away this idea, but it didn't work." After the reunion in the capital, this idea became even stronger. Why don't you have a little ambition? I can help you make it happen and pay off old debts. ”

"Although I don't remember, I must have willingly given you the jade pendant when I was a child, so you don't owe me anything. Haven't you been afraid of being killed since you were a child? Haven't you always wanted to be safe? Then you should stay away from Jindan and Danxue, I already know the whole truth......"

"I've seen Wen Kongshou." Third Sister He interrupted him.

"What did he say to you?"

"Well, before I asked, he said everything. On July 15, whether it is a blessing or a curse, it will be clear on that day, some people have nothing to gain, or even lose their lives, and some people have ascended to the sky from now on. ”

"Impossible, there is no such thing as a day to the sky, after the Tianji ship leaves, there is no source for Jindan, everyone ...... Yuan Jie had only been away from the Danxue for only a few days, and he was already too weak to hurry. ”

"That's because he's too weak in the first place."

"He has Dan acupoints, and he's still weak?"

"Yuan Jie stole into the Dan cave, he was worried, he couldn't let go, and he always felt that he was sorry for the trust of the merchants, so the skills he got were not pure enough."

Hu Guiyang was a little lost, "This is the reason why you are looking for me, to remove the last bit of guilt in your heart?" ”

Third Sister He took a step forward, stretched out her hand and gently put it on Hu Guiyang's face, "Even if it is, in short, from now on, I don't owe anyone any more." ”

"What about the five madmen?"

"I don't owe him anything, he is willing to follow me and drive him away from me, which is the harm to him." Third Sister He'er's palms became gentle, and even her voice regained a bit of her former gentleness, "I only owe you." If I die, I want you to remember me, and if I live, I want to forget you again. ”

"It's not fair."

The palm of the hand left the cheek, and the blurred figure quickly retreated.

Hu Guiyang got out of bed and chased after him, and suddenly realized that he was not wearing clothes, so he didn't care about covering up, and reached out to grab someone.

Third Sister He is just like this night, it seems to be around her, but she will never be really touched.

Hu Guiyang chased to the door, only to see that the night was boundless, and all he heard in his ears was the lonely sound of insects, and there was no vague figure in front of him.

He said that he was not convinced by Third Sister He, whether it was reasoning or emotion, he couldn't make her change her mind.

The night breeze blew, Hu Guiyang suddenly felt a little cold, hurriedly returned to the bed and put on clothes, and couldn't sleep anymore.

Looking back, if he hadn't remembered a few words that Third Sister He had said, he really thought it was all a dream.

The dream will eventually wake up, and the person will eventually leave, Hu Guiyang has to admit that he has lost her, but he comforts himself: never got it, how can it be lost? He would never have the so-called "ambition" of the third sister, so he couldn't walk with her.

"It can't be just me." Hu Guiyang muttered that it became very important for him to find a like-minded person in Yunyang Mansion.
