"Zhong~~~姒~~~"

"Young~~~Jun~~~Brother~~~Brother~~~"

The shout of reconfirmation sent the diggers into ecstasy. Xian Zhu understood, and immediately sent someone to rush in that direction. Soon, on the hillside in front of him, the person who had been haunted by his dreams finally appeared.

Back then, in Qiongtai Palace, Zhong Xi looked up at the digging tu who was trapped on the top of the platform, and now the same familiar eyes have been replaced by digging tu looking up at Zhong Xi on the hillside. In the blink of an eye, more than a year later, the little goddess is still holding a cute Taoist aunt's head. It's just that because it's puberty, the body is growing fast like a spring shoot, and it's already transformed from a little Lori into some outlines of a big beauty. However, the smile on the corner of her mouth was still so flawless and innocent.

Digging Tu forgot all the pain on his body, hugged Xiao Zhongxi, and the warm tears broke the embankment in an instant.

Behind her, Nie Rang stood far away, hesitating and not daring to approach. Seeing that he was ragged and covered with bloodstains everywhere, Zhong Ji was unharmed, and he was immediately moved. Without saying a word, he stepped forward and gave the other a brotherly hug.

The Spring and Autumn Ancient people next to him all looked at these modern movements with strange eyes, but Nie Rang was very familiar with them. A hug instantly reminded him of the days when he was messing with this lord who had no concept of dignity and inferiority. He seemed preoccupied, his dangling hands hesitating, but in the end he gently hugged Dutu's back.

Dutu couldn't stop the emotions in his heart anymore and cried loudly. The cry echoed in the mountains, startling flocks of birds, flying towards the sky in the golden light of the morning sun.

Now that it was done, the chief of the hundred rooms beckoned everyone to pack up their things and start the return journey.

The digging of all kinds of care made Zhong Ji sit in a sedan chair, and he rode a horse in parallel with Nie Rang. He smiled and asked, "Why are you so timid?" Who are afraid that will come looking for trouble? ”

Nie Rang was stumbling, and digging was even more strange: "Are you afraid of Rong people?" Or is it a political enemy? It doesn't have to be Naejae-sama, right? Seeing that Nie Rang was silent, he couldn't help but pinch his heart, "What have you experienced in the past year?" ”

Seeing that it couldn't be perfunctory, Nie Rang had no choice but to speak slowly.

On that day, the convoy was ambushed by the Rong people, and he was asked to return to the horse to save people. After rushing back and forth three times, he found Zhong Xi shivering by the bushes. Nie Rang is a first-class warrior in the end, and he is very skilled. He took out the skill of superracing, jumped off the horse and galloped with the horse, leaned over and picked up the little Lori, immediately turned over and got on the horse, and desperately chased east.

Suddenly, a hateful Rong man stretched out his knife and cut off the horse's feet, and between the lightning and flint, Nie Rang tightly held Zhong Xi in his arms, and he slammed into the ground headlong, fainting instantly. When they awoke, they were already mixed in with the ranks of the captives, heading west, farther and farther away from the dug.

After the destruction of the pickaxe capital, the Rong people wantonly burned, killed and looted. After the destruction was almost complete, the nomadic people moved to camp outside the city, and instead used the city as a prison cell, using high walls to keep their captives inside. Once the rammed earth wall was destroyed, the weathering was particularly rapid, and many places collapsed over time. The Rong people were reluctant to repair it, and gradually became lazy to be on guard, and there were many loopholes in the guards.

During that time, Nie Rang saw the opportunity to escape with Zhong Ji. It's a pity that the plains at that time were full of Rong people, and it was too risky to go east to Zheng Guo when they saw refugees, so it was too risky to go east to Zheng State. They had no choice but to flee with the large army into the nearest deep mountains, and waited until they were discovered by Xianzhu.

Digging Tu was distressed when he heard it, and comforted him vigorously: "It's not easy for you, no wonder you have to be cautious." Now that you are saved, you will not have to be afraid again. So he deliberately changed some light topics and began to talk about the past and what happened to Zheng Guo after the separation. However, although he had been very excited, he had always faintly felt that Nie Rang was a little restrained. Thinking that when they were under house arrest by Neizai, the two really talked about everything, but the one-year separation seemed to have erected a transparent film between the hearts of the two.

Before I knew it, it was getting late, and the trees on both sides were gradually thinning, and it turned out that everyone had come to the bottom of the mountain. The injured dug went through emotional ups and downs, and finally became sleepy. He fell asleep with a sense of happiness.

The next day, everyone changed into a carriage and set off for Hokyo. Digging Tu insisted on riding with Zhong Ji. Although she has deliberately avoided unhappy topics such as praise and escape, the little girl is still not very interested. So he sacrificed the killer topic of the "sister" on Qiongtai that year - animals, and sure enough, the atmosphere was mobilized again. It turned out that Zhong Xi had been wandering around Zhongnan Mountain every day for more than a year, and had seen many of the species mentioned in the digging year. At this mention, she suddenly opened the conversation box and took the initiative to talk about what she had seen, such as pangolins eating ants, tigers catching deer, wild silkworms spinning silk, and so on.

When he heard the silkworm, he remembered the jade ornament: "Where is the jasper silkworm you are close to?" Show me. ”

Zhong Ji was stunned for a moment, thought for a while, and said, "I accidentally lost it during the escape." ”

Digging suddenly remembered the faint body fragrance soaked in the jade, and suddenly felt distressed. But he was afraid of evoking Zhong Xi's painful memories, so he didn't dare to ask more, so he pulled from the animals to other things in the mountains, such as the scenery, such as the mountain people. Speaking of happy places, Zhong Ji also sang the mountain song she learned. Listening to this beautiful sound, Dutu once again felt that his heart was happy.

After singing a song, Zhong Xi covered her mouth and giggled, and she was coquettish and wanted to sing it. At first, he was reluctant to live or die, because in reality, Jia Hanqing's incomplete gong voice once left a shadow on KTV. But then I thought about it, and I usually have a good voice, maybe it's suitable for singing now? So he plucked up the courage and sang a pop song that he used to cycle brainwashing every day - "Flawless" by Nanquan's mother. In his opinion, there are thousands of women in the world, and only the big Lori in front of him is truly as "flawless" as jasper.

Zhong Ji held her chin in one hand, listened quietly, and said playfully: "The song is not bad, this word is too straightforward and indecent." ”

Dutu blushed, realizing that the vernacular lyrics were not suitable for antiquity, and promised: "I'll rewrite the lyrics for you when I go back." ”

"Yes, yes." Zhong Ji danced happily.

In this way, amid laughter and laughter all the way, the convoy drove into Hokyo.

Dutu was still immersed in the joy of the way, and ran into the mansion with Nie Rang and Zhong Xi, completely ignoring that Nei Zai had already come back first. When they met by chance in the courtyard, both sides were taken aback.

"Nie Rang!" Nejae first recognized the samurai he had raised since childhood, and was so excited that he didn't know what to say. Then he saw the little girl on the side, he squinted his old eyes and looked at it for a long time, and suddenly his eyes widened angrily, and he roared: "Demon girl! ”

Zhong Xi was so frightened that she immediately hid behind Nie Rang, trembling like chaff. When he saw that his sweetheart who had just recovered from his injuries was frightened like this, his hormones immediately surged, and he scolded angrily: "Nonsense! Don't scare him! ”

Nejae was a little confused, and he couldn't figure it out for a while. He looked at Dutu, then at Zhong Xi, and suddenly realized: "It turns out that the king refuses to marry Ji Jiang for this demon girl!" ”

The chief of the hundred rooms was speechless for a while, so he came up to play a round: "The marriage is a big matter, the king has his own opinions, so don't worry about it all the time." ”

"Get out of here!" As an old nobleman, Nezai actually burst into foul language, "You villain, no wonder you have been running around mysteriously recently, it turns out that you are looking for this demon girl." People reminded me that there are villains in Zheng Guo, and it turns out that you businessmen are causing disaster to the country and the people......"

"Shut up!" "People are what I'm looking for, don't be angry with others." ”

"Your Majesty, the Bao Xi sisters are ominous people, you must not be fascinated by them. The reappearance of this demon girl is to charm you to reject Ji Jiang and destroy the relationship between Zheng Guo and Zhou Tianzi. If we ruin the position that the ancestor has won in the court all his life, we will be laughed at by the world! ”

"These ghostly words are all tricks framed in the political struggle, you still take it seriously! I have my own opinions on marriage, and I have a sense of proportion in diplomatic matters, so there will be no situation that you are worried about. ”

Nejae thumped his chest, but he couldn't listen to anything. He suddenly drew his sword and rushed over, shouting loudly to rid the country of demons. Everyone was so frightened that they didn't have time to react. Nie Rang, who was next to Zhong Ji, stepped forward and held the blade of the sword with his bare hand.

Seeing the red blood seeping out along the blood trough, Nezai was dumbfounded: "Why? Why did you help this enchantress too? He looked at Nie Rang's mixed expression, and he couldn't imagine that the loyal warrior he had cultivated since childhood would be antagonistic to him for the first time after a long absence.

Now that his face had been torn, Hyakuma took advantage of the distraction of Neizai to snatch the bronze sword and subdue it.

Dutu scolded: "Neizai, Neizai, how stubborn are you!" Don't think that you are a veteran and a reckless minister! ”

"The minister is ashamed of the king, and he is ashamed of the ancestors!" Nei Zai said hatefully, "You insist on going your own way, and the ministers have no shame to serve left and right, and they are still at the disposal of the king." ”

In the face of this old stubbornness, he was angry and annoyed, and for the sake of his loyalty, he couldn't bear to be punished heavily, so he had to order someone to send him back and put him under house arrest for reflection.

looked at Zhong Ji, who seemed to have lost her soul, digging her heart like a knife, and hurried to help. But she seemed to have suddenly changed people, and shook off Dutu's hand in horror, as if she had completely forgotten the happy time just now, and just hugged Nie Rang tightly, and refused to let go. Seeing this, Xian Zhu hurriedly stepped forward and persuaded: "Don't worry, let the ministers arrange for them to rest first." ”

Frightened by Zhong Ji's eyes, he let go of his hand and watched them leave. However, from that moment on, this expression lingered in his mind for a long time, like a nightmare.

Just when he was depressed because of this, Xianzhu hurriedly turned back.
