There was only the last trace of afterglow left in the sky, Li Zhilian took off his hat and looked at the mountains that stretched endlessly and could not see the border, and suddenly had some tears in his eyes~

Su Yun, who was on the side, had already untied the mask and the things on his hands, lay on the trunk of the tree, and gasped breathlessly: "Little pity~ As the saying goes, it's easy to go up the mountain and difficult to go down, it's almost dark this day!" Why don't we rest on this hilltop tonight? Descending early tomorrow morning"

Li Zhilian raised his head and held back the tears in his eyes, sniffed, stood up and clapped his hands, "It's not safe here, do you believe me?" ”

Su Yun only felt an ominous premonition, and took half a step back and asked, "You tell me what you want to do first, I'm thinking about whether to believe you."

Li Zhilian pointed to the clothes on his body and said: "What we are wearing now is made of the outer skin of livestock, which has excellent patience and toughness, and it should not be cut!" ”

The corners of Su Yun's mouth twitched slightly: "You don't want to get off here!" ”

Li Zhilian raised his eyes and said: "Almost~ I just observed that this mountain is a dirt mountain, you see there are a lot of large trees down here" She said as she sat on the ground with her legs stretched out and said: "Let's just sit and slide down, the slope is not very big, the legs can control the speed of the slide, I really can't control the hands, just catch something and you won't fall to death, at most you will be injured......"

Su Yun laughed embarrassedly twice, licked his lips and said, "Then if there is a fault, or a big stone, it won't be dead!" ”

Li Zhilian smiled bitterly: "I won't let you rush down, let's slide down slowly, and we should be able to get to the bottom of the mountain in half an hour."

Su Yun took a few steps back in a row, hugged the tree trunk and shook his head, "What's the difference between you and rolling down?" ”

Li Zhilian shook his head helplessly and said, "Then I'm in front of you like this, in case you can't control it, how about I stop you?" ”

Su Yuntou hugged the trunk and shook his head: "No~ I'm not afraid of death, I can't die yet, do you have any other way?" ”

Li Zhilian sat down on the ground helplessly and shrugged his shoulders: "Then tell me first, what is the difference between being afraid of death and not being able to die?" ”

Su Yun walked up to Li Zhilian and sat down and said: "I'm afraid of death because I'm timid, I'm not small, I just haven't done anything so I can still die."

Li Zhilian cupped his forehead: "You said you can't die yet, right?" Let's sort out our thoughts! Think about it, if you don't go down and stay on the top of the mountain at night, will it be safe? You can't light a fire at night at the top of the mountain, right? If there is no fire to prevent those snakes, insects, rats and ants, large animals will bite you, you will not die, even if there are no poisonous snakes and poisonous insects, if the rain blows strong wind at night, you will blow you to the bottom of the mountain if you don't die of cold, or you will meet someone who comes to patrol, and you will click you with a knife, and you will have two results if you listen to my slide, or you will fall to death, or you can still roast the fire and eat something hot."

Su Yun opened her mouth wide in surprise and looked at Li Zhilian and blinked: "It turns out that you talk a lot?" ”

Li Zhilian laughed to himself: "Talking a little more, it seems more reasonable, you say, right?" ”

Su Yun stood up, tightened the things on his back and said, "It's really reasonable~"

In the mountains in the quiet night, a little fire faintly appeared in a cave halfway up the mountainside, and in the cave, Shen Zhitang paced slowly, his eyes glancing out from time to time, as if waiting for someone

The sound of footsteps outside the cave sounded, and Li Jianqing carried two pheasants and said, "Teacher~"

Shen Zhitang smiled: "Not bad, see clearly~ can hit the prey, or two"

Li Jianqing said: "Students don't dare to grab this credit, these are all Xu Sen's fights!" ”

Shen Zhitang looked outside the cave and said, "What about Xu Sen?" Why didn't I come back with you? ”

Li Jianqing added wood to the fire and said: "On the way back, he said that it would be convenient to go, I was afraid that the teacher would be worried after waiting for a long time, so he came back first."

Shen Zhitang smiled and said, "This is not like your style of doing things!" ”

Li Jianqing also smiled and said: "If you really can't hide anything from you, teacher, I followed him for a while, his vigilance was too strong, and I was afraid that the gains would outweigh the losses and I would retreat first." He put the pheasant in the fire and got up and walked to Shen Zhitang's side and said, "It's just that the students still don't understand, they have the opportunity to do it, why did they go around in such a big circle to lead us to this mountain?" ”

Shen Zhitang pondered for a while with his hands behind his back before saying, "Let's first assume that those poisonous insects are controlled by that medicine hall called Shentang Valley, then no matter what their purpose is, what they hope most must be that the government doesn't know about this matter, right?" Because once the government knows about it, it will not sit idly by, which will cause inconvenience to their movements, so that the troublesome refugees and the killed governors will not make sense."

Li Jianqing came to his senses and said: "Teacher, do you mean that there are two groups of people in this Xilin City, one is to refine poisonous insects, and the other is to lead the teacher here to investigate, so Xu Sen is in the second type?" ”

Shen Zhitang shook his head and said: "It's too early to make a conclusion, generally I don't need to be a dignified prime minister to die in the mansion!" ”

Li Jianqing was shocked: "Could it be that the emperor has other arrangements?" ”

Shen Zhitang said: "The blame is that the emperor didn't reveal half of the news......

"Shh~" Li Jianqing suddenly waved his hand and said, and after a while, Xu Sen's voice came from outside the cave: "I said Master Li, why don't you wait for me!" I'm afraid of you, I've walked a long way, and I almost can't find my way back."

Xu Sen walked into the cave and saw both of them standing and asked, "Why are they both standing, what are they talking about?" ”

Shen Zhitang said with a smile: "We are talking about the sound of flowing water at the bottom of the mountain, and the sound of the water is so loud that I don't know if we can walk over."

Xu Sen sat next to the fire, turned the chicken over and said: "The sound of the water is from the waterfall at the bottom of the mountain, there has been no rain here in the past two months, the stream under the mountain is extremely shallow, adults don't have to worry."

Shen Zhitang and Li Jianqing looked at each other and smiled

In the Yunshan Academy at the foot of Yunshan Mountain in Zhongluan City, Mr. Wang stood with his hands behind his back and asked the dark people, "Where is Shen Zhitang?" ”

"In the mountains, you should be able to reach the edge of Yuzui Lake tomorrow night."

"Hmm" Mr. Wang nodded: "Is there any news of pity?" ”

"Before, Mr. didn't let me follow, I only knew that she went in the direction of Xisha County"

"Went to Xisha County?" Mr. Wang gently stroked the young leaves in his hand: "What about the six princes of the Western Zhou Kingdom?" ”

……

No one replied in the dark, and after a while, there was a sound of footsteps in the corridor, and a person dressed as a small man came from outside and handed over a letter: "My lord~ from Ningcheng"

Mr. Wang opened the envelope and browsed it quickly, his face changed slightly, and he held the envelope tightly in his hand, and when he opened it, it had turned into crumbs: "Go and call Lin Niang~"

Lin Niang is over forty years old and is weak, and Li Zhilian has no will to survive as soon as she leaves, her body is even thinner, she slowly walked to Mr. Wang's study by holding on to the wall, Ying Ying knelt down and said: "Mr. is looking for me~"

Mr. Wang didn't turn around, turned his back to Lin Niang and said, "Someone from Ningcheng is here~ said that he wanted to take you back"

Lin Niang was slightly stunned for a moment, and immediately smiled: "The old body and the girl made an appointment to wait for her here, and asked Mr. to help me reject the person from Ningcheng."

Mr. Wang turned around, gently helped Lin Niang up, and said, "It won't be long before I know mercy, and I will return to Ningcheng, so you can take care of it."

Lin Niang's feet bent slightly: "Since this is the case, then I will bother Mr."
