Chapter 359: Silence Before Dawn
Chopping Feng looked at Jiang Zuiyao indifferently, but refused to say a word.
It was cold and windy outside, and the whole room didn't seem to be so warm anymore.
Chopping Feng glanced at the door, got up and said, "Zong Yuan is guarding outside, he will suspect it if I stay too long." Let me tell you that I will leave for Liancheng early tomorrow morning. ”
mentioned the place where Jiang Zuiyao had been, she couldn't help asking: "What are you doing in Liancheng?" ”
As he walked out of the door, he spit out a faint sentence: "Slaughter the city." ”
The moment these two words came to Jiang Zuiyao's ears, her whole person was stunned by the accident.
After slowing down for a long time, Jiang Zuiyao hurriedly took out a pen and paper, wrote down the intention of the head of the house in the least number of words, and then hid the note, stood in front of the door calmly and breathed a deep sigh of relief, and opened the door.
The moment she opened the door, she saw Zong Yuan leaning against the wall of the corridor, looking at her coldly.
Jiang Zuiyao ignored him, and walked out with a step, followed by Zong Yuan, and did not speak.
It wasn't until he walked out of the building that Zong Yuan finally asked, "Where are you going?" ”
Jiang Zuiyao replied lightly: "It's too boring to stay in the house, come out for a walk." ”
Zong Yuan also knew that Jiang Zuiyao had not eaten a grain of rice for a day, coupled with the dull appearance of his face at the moment, he also guessed that Jiang Zuiyao was in a bad mood, but he didn't ask much, and he wouldn't care.
Walking to the lotus pond, the lake is frozen in winter, and there was a snow yesterday, and the ice is covered with snow and sparkling in the sun.
Jiang Zuiyao walked on the snow, leaving a row of footprints, aimlessly.
Zong Yuan followed closely, even if there was nothing unusual everywhere, he still didn't dare to relax.
Stepping on the snow made a creaking sound, and the cold wind blew Jiang Zuiyao a little cold, and Zong Yuan was also cold, but he didn't say a word.
Jiang Zuiyao's gaze fell on the place where Leng Ye had told her, and she seemed to be just hanging out, but in fact, she was quickly thinking about what to do so as not to be discovered.
Suddenly, Jiang Zuiyao's feet slipped, and he stumbled and almost fell, but fortunately he stabilized in time and didn't fall.
Such a move reminded Jiang Zuiyao.
She walked forward slowly, getting closer and closer to the place Leng Ye was pointing to, until when she was close to her, Jiang Zuiyao pretended to slip and fell to the ground.
"Ahh , Jiang Zuiyao screamed and fell to the ground.
Zong Yuan frowned irritably: "Get up by yourself." ”
When Jiang Zuiyao raised his hand, he took out the note hidden in his clothes, pretended to hold on to the ground, put his hand into the snow, and then hid the note in the snow without being discovered by Zong Yuan.
Jiang Zuiyao stood up and rubbed her elbow with a pretending stinging pain.
The cold wind was howling, blowing his ears as painful as a cat's scratch, Zong Yuan frowned and said, "It's too cold, let's go back." ”
Jiang Zuiyao pretended to be depressed and returned the same way, and the note she threw down was buried in the snow and hidden deeply.
When he returned to the door of the house, it happened that Liu Zhuoran came back from nowhere, and when he saw Jiang Zuiyao and Zong Yuan being frozen, he asked, "Where did the master go?" ”
Jiang Zuiyao replied lightly: "Go out and take a walk." ”
As soon as the words fell, Jiang Zuiyao pushed open the door and went in, no longer paying attention to the people and things outside.
The sky gradually darkened until it was completely dark, but Jiang Zuiyao did not light the lamp, the room was shrouded in darkness, and she was lying alone in the quilt with a gloomy expression.
In the end, he couldn't stay sleepy and fell asleep, and after sleeping for less than two hours, he was woken up by the shouts at the door.
When he opened the door with a coat, it was Zong Yuan, and he spit out coldly: "Hurry up and get dressed, I will only give you time for a stick of incense." ”
Jiang Zuiyao knew what to do, closed the door and put on her clothes, and when she washed her face, she suddenly remembered something, and she was afraid that it was too late to take a stick of incense, so she grabbed the rubber band and rushed out with only a ponytail.
Zong Yuan followed closely and shouted, "Where are you going!" ”
Jiang Zuiyao replied in a very quick tone: "I'll go get something." ”
When he got to the third floor, he walked out with a ball of things wrapped in a cloth, and Zong Yuan snatched it and looked at it, for fear that it was something suspicious, but when he saw the contents of the cloth bag, he was relieved to stuff the cloth bag into Jiang Zuiyao's arms.
Jiang Zuiyao followed Zong Yuan out of the building, only to find that it was not yet dawn, and when he walked to the carriage, Jiang Zuiyao did not rush to get into the carriage, but walked to the side of Chopping Feng.
He was sitting on a horse, Jiang Zuiyao handed him the cloth bag and said, "Put this away." ”
Chopping Wind took the cloth bag and opened it to see that it was a piece of clothing he had never seen before, and asked curiously, "What is this?" ”
Jiang Zuiyao replied: "The weapon is very dangerous, there are radioactive harmful substances, you wear it, it will protect you." ”
After saying this, Jiang Zuiyao turned around and went back to the carriage, and looked at her departing back, her eyes softened a lot.
Jiang Zuiyao got into the carriage, only to find that the head of the house was also sitting inside, she didn't speak, she found a corner place to sit down, a little far away from the head of the house.
With the order of the master, the carriage began to move forward, and the road was uneven at first, so the speed was a little slow, and when it reached the main road, it was fast.
This bump made the half-asleep Jiang Zuiyao feel a lot more energetic. Although it was cold outside, it was very warm with a stove lit in the carriage, and the head of the house was holding a half-eaten sweet potato in his hand, and when he saw Jiang Zuiyao waking up, he took out the tongs and handed it to Jiang Zuiyao and said, "Eat something." ”
Jiang Zuiyao subconsciously touched her stomach, she didn't eat yesterday, she only felt empty in her stomach at the moment, but she had no appetite.
The head of the door said: "I heard that you didn't get the grain of rice yesterday, and although the journey is not far, you have to walk for two days and one night to get there." ”
Jiang Zuiyao got up and took the tongs in the hands of the master, the sweet potato was roasted in the stove, Jiang Zuiyao took out one and hung it on the plate, picked up the chopsticks and ate it carefully.
Afterwards, the head of the house poured another cup of tea for Jiang Zuiyao and said, "It's cold, drink some hot tea." ”
Jiang Zuiyao took a sip of hot tea, which was sweet and fragrant with flowers, but it was delicious.
At this moment, the sound of horses' hooves sounded outside the carriage, and when the sound of horses' hooves got closer and closer, until it rang in his ears, Zong Yuan's voice sounded: "Master." ”
The head raised his hand to lift the curtain and asked, "Are they all deployed?" ”
Zong Yuan nodded: "Everyone has arrived, just waiting for you." ”
The head said solemnly: "At the last moment, you must not be negligent. ”
Zong Yuan replied immediately: "Yes! ”
The head of the car lowered the curtain, the cold wind blew in, he grabbed the blanket and covered his knees, looked at Jiang Zuiyao and asked, "Are you cold?" Do you want to cover something? ”
Jiang Zuiyao shook her head and didn't speak.
The head of the house tilted his body, lay in the spacious carriage, and said: "I'm a little tired, sleep for a while, you can rest for a while when you are full, and you will not have such a good time in a few days." ”
Jiang Zuiyao still didn't reply, and glanced at the head who closed her eyes, she couldn't help but be a little worried, and she didn't know if the note she hid in the snow yesterday had any effect.
