Five watches

The night was still deep, and it was like ink.

There was no one on the street.

Except for the long and short shadows dragged by the moon, only the lonely drizzle was left gently and densely swaying alone.

Qin Yemian walked quietly on the road.

His hair, his eyebrows, his eyes, and his face were soon moistened with fine objects, and they were covered with a layer of white mist.

The heart seemed to be soaked at the same time, and in this cold night, there was a little sour wilting ······.

"Come out!" The man called softly.

"Master." Shadow quickly emerged from the darkness.

In fact, he followed the moment his master went out, but he didn't dare to approach.

After that, neither of them spoke, and walked silently one after the other.

At the gate of Zhuxuanfang, the man stopped.

Shadow knew he had something to say, so she waited.

"Tomorrow, let Meng take the princess to see Ah Li······ Take them to Yizhuang. ”

After explaining, the man disappeared in a flash.

Ying Jing looked upstairs and saw that the oil lamp was lit in the house, so he turned around and left silently.

Yizhuang

Li'er finished dressing up early and waited.

She wanted to wait for Dong'er to come and go, for fear that she would disturb the princess if she went early.

It was almost noon, and Dong'er was finally late.

As soon as her front foot arrived, Li'er immediately got up and went out.

The first time she went out on the street, she was not happy. Apart from anxiety, all that's left is worry.

At the door of the inn, she and Meng Liao were both stopped by the shopkeeper.

"You're here to find Ah Li?" The shopkeeper asked.

"Yes." Meng replied.

"Ah Li Gongzi has left." As he spoke, he took out a letter and handed it to him.

The letter contained a simple sentence, "Take a step first and don't read it."

When Li'er saw it, she cried ······.

Zhu Xuan Fang

"Master ·····." Shadow slammed the door on the door.

He knew that his master would not sleep until dawn, but this matter was urgent.

"What?" Qin Yemian got up and put on his clothes.

"Ah Li Gongzi is gone."

As soon as Meng sent someone to report, he was in a hurry to find him.

"When?" The man didn't care that he wasn't dressed yet, and immediately opened the door.

"The city out of Chenshi, Meng Li has already sent someone to check."

"Inform Meng, let's leave immediately."

"Yes."

Qin Yemian washed up casually, turned around and went downstairs.

At this time, the shadow had already brought the two of them and waited.

Then the two of them hurried away.

He Chen, running extremely fast, seemed to know the man's mood at the moment.

The figure of the Mercedes-Benz is like a cloud driving through the fog, and everywhere it passes is dusty ······.

on the carriage

The princess fell asleep groggy, her face still pale and worrisome.

In fact, they have no intention of leaving today.

It was the princess who was clamoring to leave as soon as she woke up, so she didn't listen to what she said, so she had no choice but to follow her.

So it's been almost two hours since she left the city, and Ah Jing has been driving the carriage very slowly, afraid that if something happens, she will turn around immediately.

"Phew"

Suddenly, two fast horses passed by, blocking her path.

She looked at the two men in front of her in surprise, a little unresponsive.

"Your Excellency·······." Ah Jing was about to ask him something.

But the man didn't even look at her, and got into the carriage directly.

"Get out."

A cold voice sounded like it came from hell in the carriage, startling Lan Xin, who turned around to see that it was an adult.

Although she didn't want to, she could only get off the carriage obediently.

The girl in the carriage slept very deeply, and Qin Yemian sat quietly next to her and watched.

He noticed that she seemed to be sleeping restlessly, and her mouth was always making "mmmmmmmmmm

Especially the curly body, tightly clumped together, looks very pitiful.

"Ahh You don't want to see me, do you? The man muttered to himself.

I couldn't help but think of what she said when she left Zhuxuanfang that day.

He was annoyed when she said that she would never appear in front of him again.

---

Outside the carriage

Ah Jing and Lan Xin were in a hurry.

"What do you mean?" When Ah Jing saw Ying holding a sword and guarding outside the carriage, looking like a living person who was not approaching, she wanted to cut him with a knife.

"Do you know how to get to Peony City?"

Ying didn't answer the rhetorical question, and didn't take Ah Jing's anger in his eyes at all.

"Nonsense." She now asked why they stopped them and wouldn't let them go.

"Tell me about it?" Shadow said slowly.

"It's clearly drawn on it, are you blind?" Ah Jing took out the map and smashed it directly in his face.

Shadow didn't say a word, silently picking up the map that had fallen to the ground.

"You want to go this way?" He glanced at it and pointed to the place where it had been marked.

"So what?" She was about to explode now, and she couldn't wait to rush into the carriage to see what the adults were looking for.

"Then do you know that there is a particularly dangerous place up there?"

Shadow knew that he was a protector, and he knew at a glance how often he was looking at the carriage.

"What's the danger?" Ah Jing snatched the map and glanced at it, with a bad attitude.

"There's a wolf slope here, don't you know?" Shadow gestured where she had marked, with a gentle attitude.

It's just that he was a little surprised, they rushed on the road without inquiring clearly, and they really didn't think about it.

In fact, this road is also what they plan to take, so they did some research.

In fact, there were originally three ways to get from Peony City to Peony City.

One by water, two by land.

Most people use waterways because waterways are safer.

When they came before, they also took the waterway.

But now they don't dare to go, first, the waterway is long, and it is a problem that they can't prevent it.

There is also the problem that this body of water flows through the Xiliang border.

In the past, Nanchu and Xiliang were safe, and it was naturally best to take the waterway.

But now that the situation is tense, they are afraid that the people of Xiliang Flame Hall will have an ambush, so they dare not act rashly.

As for the other two land routes, one is a mountain road, the road is rugged and difficult, full of cliffs, and there is no way to walk with the female dependents.

The other is the plain avenue, although the road is short, it has to pass through a wolf slope, and this wolf slope is extremely dangerous.

But no matter what, they made up their minds to break through this time. So I've been preparing things over Wolf Slope these days.

"The wolf slope you are talking about can't be the legendary wolf slope, right?" Lan Xin interjected.

"Exactly."

"No way, there's no mark on this map at all."

"Any idea why it's not on the map?"

"Why?"

"Because this road has never been walked. No, no one has ever come out of this path alive. ”

"You're trying to say that the legend of this wolf slope is true." Ah Jing was a little frightened now.

"Do you know how many wolves there are on the Wolf Slope?" Ying does not answer rhetorical questions.

"If you have something to say, let it go!" She couldn't see him look like he was pretentious.

"That's more than the entire population of the city."

The shadow glared at him fiercely, he couldn't stand this person's mouth full of farts and fart, and he had the same virtue as his master.

"Impossible." He is clearly alarmist.

"Don't make a noise."

At this time, a deliberately lowered male voice suddenly sounded, startling everyone.

"Master!" Shadow saw his master get out of the carriage and immediately followed.

After Lan Xin and Ah Jing glanced at each other, they got into the carriage directly.

"My lord, is what Shadow said true?" Ah Jing caught up with them.

"Hmm." The man gave her a soft "um" and gave her an affirmative answer.

"So what do we do now?"

Ah Jing suddenly felt a little scared, because the man's face looked a little dignified.

"How's Meng going to prepare there?" The man asked suddenly.

"It should be fine, three days is enough."

As soon as the video finished speaking, there was a sudden sound of horses' hooves in my ears.

Immediately after that, a team of people appeared.

"Master." Meng took a moment of carriage and immediately quickly came to Qin Yemian's side.

Before he received the order from his master, he was upset by the crying of Li'er.

Well, now that I've finally caught up with someone, I'm finally relieved.

"How's the preparation?" The man asked.

"Rest assured, you're all ready." Meng is confident.

"Okay, rest and go."

"Yes."

Before Meng finished speaking, he heard a woman's crying.

"Ahh Li'er ran while crying, the speed was extremely fast, and she didn't have the dignity and calmness of being a princess at all.

Meng Liao frowned, and was about to go over, but was stopped by Qin Yemian.

"Let her go!"

"Yes." Shadow responds in his mouth, but his heart is very irritable.

I don't know what's so good about this Ah Fence boy. It makes the princess lose her soul every day, and she doesn't know how to eat.

Especially when she was on the road just now, when she urged him to hurry up, his anger came up.

on the carriage

"How's it going?" Li'er wiped her tears, took the face towel in Lan Xin's hand, and helped the princess wipe her body.

In the past few days, Dong'er doesn't know why, she is always stumbling, making her anxious, and always worried about what happens to the princess.

"I'm feeling better this morning." Lan Xin took out clean clothes and helped her change them.

In the past two days, the princess has been in a cold sweat, and she has to change her body almost several times a day.

"Have you figured out why?" The pity is worried.

"Nope." Lan Xin shook her head, her heart heavy.

She had carefully studied all the ingredients of the medicine, except for the water.

But that water only comes out once a year. Now she just wants to study, but she can't help it.

Especially when she was in a hurry to collect medicine, she didn't see the legendary scene at all. It's just that afterwards I heard the princess say that the water turned blood red.

"What then?" In Li'er's opinion, even Lan Xin can't do anything about it, and that's a big thing.

So she began to sob and cry again.

Looking at the weak appearance of the sleeping princess, Li'er's heart was broken.

They grew up together and were inseparable.

Although it is a master-servant relationship, they are emotionally like sisters.

I remember that before, when she was sick and slept, she secretly went to do other things.

She's well, she's awake, and she's always the first to show up to her.

But this time she was so sick, she couldn't help, and she didn't know how uncomfortable it was.

She hopes that she can guard her, even if she continues to be a maid, it is better than not seeing her every day now.

Thinking like this, she cried even more sadly.
