Cao Ming looked at the phoenix seal in his hand without tears: "It's all over now, I will definitely be killed by the emperor, I'm still young and don't want to die!" ”

Cao Ming couldn't wait to slap himself twice, but he was going to cut off his head if he took the phoenix seal privately, and he might as well ask for a thousand taels of gold at the beginning, at least there would be no such mistake.

Diao Chan comforted: "This should be the emperor's mistake, he should not put the blame on you alone, and he will definitely deal with this matter impartially." ”

Cao Ming recalled the scene at that time, the phoenix seal was indeed given to him by the eunuch next to the emperor, and this mistake should be counted on the eunuch's head.

After thinking about it, Cao Ming breathed a sigh of relief: "Sister, what you said is so right, how can you blame me for this, I should blame the eunuch who took the things for this, since this phoenix seal is not going back now, let's just find a place to sell it." ”

Diao Chan hurriedly covered Cao Ming's mouth with her hand: "You still dare to sell the queen's phoenix seal, are you crazy for money, if you let the government know about it, they can send troops to arrest you at any time." ”

How dare Cao Ming really sell the phoenix seal: "What I just said was a joke, even if I want to sell it, it's impossible, who in the world dares to buy the phoenix seal?" ”

Diao Chan wrapped the phoenix seal and said: "Put this thing on me first, lest you lose it again if you are careless, and then your life will really be gone!" ”

Cao Ming muttered a few words dissatisfiedly, and then whipped his whip: "Am I so careless, drive!" ”

Suddenly, Diao Chan noticed a strange thing, the direction of the carriage was a little wrong: "Ming'er, we seem to have taken the wrong road, isn't your home in Dongjun, why are you rushing to Jingzhou?" ”

Cao Ming explained: "We are in the slowest carriage, and if we go back the same way, we will definitely be overtaken by Lu Bu's elite horsemen, so I plan to go around in a circle and stay at a friend's house for a few days." ”

Cao Ming thought that it would be easier to do it by herself, and she would definitely be able to go back by taking some remote roads, but now it is much more difficult to have an extra Diao Chan, and the entanglement between the two of them is enough to last until half of it.

Of course, what Cao Ming is most afraid of in his heart is not the chasing soldiers, but the rebels who are preparing to attack Chang'an City, which is a rebel army of nearly 100,000 people.

Night soon covered the road, and Cao Ming pulled the carriage to a flat ground and lit a bonfire on the spot.

Cao Ming said while roasting the fire: "I can only go here today, eat dry food at night to satisfy my hunger, if you are sleepy, go to bed first, I am responsible for the vigil." ”

Diao Chan took out the dry food from the carriage, and then ate it: "I can't see that you are quite bold, there is no one in this wilderness, we really live here tonight?" ”

Cao Ming said indifferently: "It's not that I haven't lived in the wild, if you are afraid, just say it, I won't laugh at you." ”

Diao Chan shuddered and said, "I'm really a little afraid, I heard my mother say about ghosts when I was a child, and if I live in the forest at night, it will disturb the souls of the dead, maybe they are looking at us now." ”

Cao Ming shook his hand and said: "That's all a lie, there are no ghosts in this world at all, anyway, I don't believe in these ghosts and gods." ”

Cao Ming knew in her heart that she was most afraid of ghosts and the like, and she was not generally afraid, but she didn't dare to listen to any terrifying stories.

I remember being caught by my girlfriend to watch a horror movie in my previous life, when the whole movie theater was laughing non-stop, but I was so scared that my palms broke out in a cold sweat, and I was even scared to cry once or twice.

Diao Chan finally burst out laughing: "I was joking with you just now, look at you who are sweating profusely, I can't see that our Ming'er is still afraid of ghosts." ”

Cao Ming glanced at Diao Chan and said, "I admit that I am afraid of ghosts, and I am not generally afraid, so don't scare me in the future." ”

Diao Chan said understandingly: "Actually, I was afraid when I was a child, but when I grew up, I was not so afraid, and everything has a process of adaptation." ”

Cao Ming thought to herself that it was easy to adapt, but it was still really difficult to do it, as if she had lived two lifetimes and was still afraid of ghosts and the like.

Cao Ming saw that the fire had weakened, and decided to go to the forest to pick up some dry firewood: "I'll leave for a while, you watch the bonfire and don't let it go out." ”

"Do you want to go by yourself without me accompanying you?" Diao Chan looked at Cao Ming with some concern, as if she was skeptical of her guts.

"No need" Cao Ming walked into the woods with a look of chagrin, and really regretted telling the truth to Diao Chan, and now his positive image was completely ruined.

There were very few branches scattered on the ground, and Cao Ming searched for a long time before finding six, and now he could only continue to walk inside.

Of course, the farther away from the campfire, the darker the road becomes, and Cao Ming really wishes that he had a lantern in his hand now, so that he would not have to use the faint moonlight to move forward.

Cao Ming said as she walked: "Bodhisattva bless, the little ghosts are scattered, let's harm the wicked!" ”

"Click!" Cao Ming suddenly stepped on a piece of wood, and a pile of wood appeared in front of him, it seemed that someone was deliberately piled there, could it be that there were other people nearby.

Cao Ming looked around at the surrounding trees, but did not see a human figure beside the trees, perhaps the hunter cut down the tree and left, and as a result, he made himself a bargain.

"Smack!" Just as Cao Ming approached the wooden pile, two black shadows touched her forehead, accompanied by a cold air.

Cao Ming subconsciously took a step back, and after a closer look, he realized that it was his feet, but how could this foot hang in the air, he wouldn't be so unlucky to meet a ghost.

Cao Ming's breathing became a little rapid, and at the same time, the gaze of her eyes began to move upward, followed by pants and a blouse, and the last thing she saw was a male corpse with loose hair and round eyes.

Cao Ming felt that her heart was about to jump out: "I'm not embarrassed, big brother, I don't want this wood, don't follow me!" ”

Cao Ming didn't dare to run back, and didn't stop until he saw the light in front of him, it seemed that the carriage was not far from him, but fortunately it was only a corpse that couldn't move.

"Let's go!" A hand suddenly put on Cao Ming's shoulder, giving her the feeling of being like an electric shock, and she could vaguely smell a fragrance.

Cao Ming's feet were soft, and she held on to the tree and sobbed: "Woo, big brother, I said I didn't mean it, can't you let me go?"

"Ming'er, what's wrong with you?" Diao Chan was taken aback by Cao Ming, why did the other party suddenly cry, could it be that he was stimulated by something.

Cao Ming turned his head and breathed a sigh of relief: "You don't stay where you are, you have nothing to do and walk around, my soul was scared out of you just now." ”

Cao Ming saw that the person behind her was Diao Chan, and her mood finally returned to normal, she was really scared to death just now.

Diao Chan explained: "You've been gone for almost half an hour, I was worried about you and went to look for you, but I didn't expect you to hide here." ”

Cao Ming was a little surprised: "No wonder you came out to look for me, it turns out that I have been gone for so long, I thought it was only for a while." ”

Cao Ming thought to herself that in fact, this ghost is not terrible, it is really scary to be scary, but it is a pity that the dry firewood she picked up was all thrown away when she ran away.

Diao Chan took out a handkerchief and handed it to Cao Ming and said, "Actually, you don't need to be reckless, I didn't laugh at you, you better wipe your tears first." ”

Cao Ming wiped her tears and said in a reproachful tone: "Originally, a corpse that couldn't move scared me would have been fine, but you suddenly appeared and patted me on the shoulder, and you were satisfied with my jokes?" ”

Diao Chan held back a smile and said: "I blame me for this matter, I think you don't have to keep vigil today, sleep in the carriage with me." ”

Cao Ming pouted and said, "No! I said I had to keep vigil, what if there were pursuers? ”

Diao Chan saw that Cao Ming couldn't be persuaded to do so, so he had to agree: "Then you will take the vigil outside the carriage, the bonfire should be able to last until dawn, and then change me when you feel sleepy." ”

Diao Chan's suggestion was taken by Cao Ming, but she still overestimated her ability and fell asleep before she could stay for ten minutes.

Early the next morning, Cao Ming was woken up by the bumps of the carriage, and after getting up, he found that Diao Chan was driving the car, and he hadn't been keeping vigil.

"Our vigil daughter woke up, was there an enemy last night?"

Diao Chan laughed out loud at the end, if he hadn't pulled the other party into the car, he would definitely have to freeze out this night, because Cao Ming was wearing a palace maid's clothes, and this ability to keep out the cold was lower than ordinary clothes.

Cao Ming blushed and said: "I can't remember last night's events clearly, I admit that the first vigil failed, next time I will definitely succeed, replace me to catch the car." ”

After another half a day, the carriage finally drove into the boundary of Jingzhou, and then Cao Ming's heart was completely let go, and it seemed that the pursuers had indeed not caught up.

"Bang dang!" At this time, Cao Ming found that there was a broken tree in front of her in the middle of the road, out of human instinct, she decisively chose to pull the reins of the horse, and in the process of stopping the carriage urgently, she almost overturned due to the excessive speed.

"Who is so immoral!" Cao Ming got out of the carriage angrily, and then walked to the broken tree to check, only to find that the tree had been cut down.

"Whoosh!" Suddenly, an arrow shot out of the forest, grazing Cao Ming's body and flying over, so frightened that she broke out in a lot of cold sweat, if she reflected slowly, she would have been hit by the arrow.

"Haha! Big brother, your archery has dropped! At this time, there was a sound of laughter in the forest, and then dozens of burly figures appeared, no need to guess that they must be robbers blocking the road.

At this moment a young man dressed in animal skins strolled out of the woods, holding a bow and arrows of extraordinary style.

Because Cao Ming didn't have a weapon in his hand, he could only choose to act at the opportunity: "I don't know what this big brother is doing in the way, if we need silver, we have a little." ”

The young man hugged his chest and said in a tough tone: "I, Gan Ning, never like to go around the bend, everything in this carriage, including you, belongs to me!" ”
