Chapter 51: A Strange Sound in the Mountains
Qingge felt that she would not think about riding a horse in her life, more than 20 days, nearly two-thirds of the time every day was spent on horses, completed the Qingzhou task, and now she is going to Yinzhou again, it seems that the road in Yinzhou is still quite bumpy and rugged, and now she and Bai Jianyu have not caught up with the big army, so they can only travel day and night.
"In one day, you can catch up with the team and persevere." Hesitating that Bai Jianyu came to Qingzhou secretly, so they couldn't reveal their whereabouts along the way, so the two had to reduce the chance of contact with others as much as possible.
"Lord Wang, you're fine, I'm naturally okay." Qingge swallowed a bite of the cake, and the taste of the cake was really indescribable.
"Lord Wang, can I know who our assassin is this time?" From the beginning to the end of the operation, I didn't know who the target person was this time. Although people did not die at her hands, she also participated in the action, I can't say what it feels like, maybe she should get used to this life as soon as possible.
"Qin Ziang, the second son of Prime Minister Qin Zheng, when you go to Yinzhou this time, you must not show your skills to the fullest." White Arrow Rain quietly looked at the raging flames and admonished.
Qingge opened her mouth, and finally didn't say anything, she had long known about the battle between Bai Jianyu and the prime minister, but she didn't expect that this time the spearhead was pointed at Qin Ziang, so it seems that she Ye Qingge really stepped on this boat.
"There will be many such actions in the future, you better get used to it as soon as possible, this king is never safe by his side, and he does not raise useless people."
"I understand, but I don't want to be a killing machine."
"That's why this king didn't let you do it yourself this time, and it's the only time."
Qingge looked sideways at Bai Jianyu's expressionless face, is this a preferential treatment for her?
"Yes, Qingge understands." Now that she is on this path, she Ye Qingge will naturally be dedicated.
"Alright, let's rest! I'm going to have to hurry tomorrow morning. After speaking, Bai Jianyu silently closed his eyes.
Tonight's starry sky is twinkling, the moonlight is hazy, very sultry, under the quiet night sky, Qingge leans against a tree, the bonfire crackles and beats, the white arrow rain on the opposite side closes his eyes, and the tall heroic posture sits straight, a black silk flutters in the wind, Qingge looks at the handsome face and is stunned.
After a bumpy ride, the two caught up with the troops heading to Yinzhou in the evening of the next day, and quietly sneaked into the line, unaware.
In case someone with a heart notices, Qingge deliberately put on a soldier's clothes.
"Did the mission go well?" Bai Xiaoji jumped out from behind Qingge.
"It's going well!" Qingge glanced at Bai Xiaoji, this guy could see him anywhere.
"Why don't we compare?" Bai Xiaoji stretched out her hand and gestured a few times before the Qing Song Dynasty.
Qingge lifted the white thistle and walked towards the fire, "I don't have that energy." ”
"What? I don't want to, I've been practicing martial arts very hard lately, and I can't let you, a woman, compare. Bai Xiaoji followed closely behind.
"You can do it! I'm either in a hurry or on the way, and I don't have the energy to take care of you, so I'm going to play by myself. Qingge glanced at Bai Xiaoji lazily.
"yes, then let you go first."
"By the way, does the prince sleep in the carriage at night?" Qingge stared at the decent carriage in the team for a while.
"Our prince must not be able to sleep in the carriage, what? What kind of bad idea are you playing. The little white thistle thief looked at Qingge with a smile.
"I haven't slept peacefully in many days, and I've been in the wilderness, so ......" Qingge smiled as he looked in the direction of the carriage.
"Okay, yes, but you have to be careful, I heard that strange things appear here at night, so you should be careful when you stay in the carriage by yourself!" The white thistle looked around mysteriously.
"Hey, I heard, who do you listen to, don't scare me." Qingge glanced at Bai Xiaoji, not reassuring his words.
"Seriously, why don't you believe it? A few guards were chatting just now, and I listened to it. ”
"Well, I believe you...... ...... behind you," Qingge suddenly pointed behind Bai Xiaoji and said tremblingly.
"I ...... I...... What's going on behind me? Bai Xiaoji swallowed her saliva, her body stiffened and motionless.
"Weird...... Blame ......"
Qingge's incoherent words frightened Bai Xiaoji, who turned around slowly and cautiously, and a gust of wind blew, except for the dark sky, there was nothing.
"Ye Qingge, you dare to lie to me." Bai Xiaoji shouted angrily.
"Hahahaha, coward." Qingge leaned forward and leaned back with laughter.
"Hmph, kindness should be the liver and lungs of a donkey." Bai Xiaoji shook her head and left angrily.
Qingge walked to the fire, Bai Jianyu and the three of them sat quietly, Bai Xiaoji saw Qingge coming, deliberately turned her face away, and ignored her.
"Okay, I didn't do it just now, I apologize to you." Qingge walked up to Bai Xiaoji's side and whispered.
"Hmph" Shiro turned his face to the other side.
Qingge also got up and turned to the other side, "I'm sorry, Bai Xiaoji, you don't care about the villain, forgive me." Qingge flattered his hands.
"Let me think about it." The white thistle pretended to be proud and held her head high.
"Okay, then I'll make up something fun for you to show my sincerity."
Qingge pulled out a few thick long leaves from the grass beside him and began to weave them seriously.
"What's that?" Bai Xiaoji stretched out her head curiously.
"You'll find out later." Qingge sold a pass, his hands nimbly interspersed between a few leaves.
The leaves became shorter and shorter in Qingge's hand, and the appearance of a cone first appeared, and after a while, a lively grasshopper spread out in Qingge's hand.
Bai Xiaoji picked up the grasshopper in the Qing singer, mentioned it in front of her, swayed it from side to side and looked around, where was there still a trace of unhappiness, "I can't see it!" This grasshopper you made up is the same as the real thing, and it really has yours. ”
Qingge smiled: "When I was a child, my grandmother taught me, in addition to this, there are many more, and there is a chance to do a few for you." ”
"What about butterflies?"
"What, you like butterflies?"
"When I was a child, my mother loved to catch butterflies with me, but after a long time, those butterflies will die, and I always wanted a butterfly that would not die." Bai Xiaoji talked about the grasshopper holding it in the other hand, recalling the scene of catching butterflies with his mother when he was a child, and his eyes were soft, and the white thistle who loved to make trouble at peace was completely different.
"Butterfly, it's very simple, I'll make it for you next time, I promise you like it."
Qingge and Bai Xiaoji chatted without anyone else, and Fusang quietly listened to the conversation between the two without speaking; On the other side, Bai Jianyu had a calm face, looking very unhappy.
"Lord Wang, I'll guard the carriage later." Qingge suddenly turned to Bai Jianyu and said.
"Hmm," Bai Jianyu replied with an ugly face.
"What I just told you is true, don't believe it." Bai Xiaoji inserted it very blindly.
"Okay, I believe you, what are you afraid of when you say you are a man?"
"No......," the two of them muttered and spoke to themselves.
White Arrow Rain's already unsightly face was even more ugly.
When he was about to be ugly, Qingge was woken up by a burst of crying.
"Who is crying in the middle of the night?" Qingge muttered, pricked up his ears and listened carefully, the sound seemed to be interrupted again, it was rare to spend the night in the wilderness for many days, it was rare to be so comfortable, although the carriage was not so spacious, but it was better than sleeping outside.
"Forget it, no matter." Qingge's eyes closed and fell down again, she was really sleepy.
"Woo woo woo ......" The sound of crying came again.
In the middle of the night, it was in the suburbs again, the sound of crying was particularly clear, Qingge opened his eyes, and his brain cleared up a lot.
The sound of "woo woo woo ......" crying repeatedly, and Qingge completely lost his sleepiness.
Qingge lifted the curtain of the car, stretched his head out and looked left and right, only to see the scarlet firelight emitting the last residual warmth, and some of the people in the team were woken up by the crying, and they all sat up and looked around. Qingge retreated, thinking that it should be okay for so many people to look at it, and planned to continue to sleep on his own.
"Knock knock......" There was a sudden knocking sound on the wall of the car.
"Who?" Qingge sat up in fright.
"It's me."
Qingge lifted the curtain and patted his chest, "I'm going to die!" You scared me to death. ”
"Yo, who said you weren't afraid to come." Bai Xiaoji looked at Qingge with a sneer.
"Fuck off, I didn't sleep in the middle of the night and ran here to scare people." Qingge glared at Bai Xiaoji with disgust.
"I saw that you made a grasshopper for me to accompany you, for fear that you would be scared and cry."
"Just you, if you don't scare me, Amitabha." Qingge yawned and looked around, "Who is crying?" ”
"I don't know, I just looked around with Fuso, and I didn't find anything abnormal, and I don't know where the voice came from." Bai Xiaoji said seriously.
"Have all the people in the team checked? Is there a small number of people? Qingge asked with a frown.
"I haven't checked this yet."
"Why don't I go with you?"
"Alright, I'll come over and see if you're okay, after all, it's far away from here, you can sleep first!" If something calls me, I'll go alone. Bai Xiaoji smiled, shook her hand and left.
"Then be careful yourself!" Qingge admonished in the back.
"It's the middle of the night, and it's deep mountains and old forests, don't say that this sound is really panicked." Qingge muttered, closed his eyes and fell asleep.
After a while, Qingge's breathing evened out, and there seemed to be the sound of raindrops in the blur, and the sound of "ticking and ticking" falling on the roof of the car, Qingge didn't bother to care, as long as the rain couldn't get into the carriage.
After about a cup of tea, the sound continued, there was no dense sound of rain, only the ticking sound that came from time to time, and Qingge was angry, what sound, and let people not sleep.
At this moment, there was another "knock" sound on the wall of the carriage.
