Chapter 261: Who Broke the Iron Shoes for Her
Oh? Ji Yuning put down the book, "Did you fight him?" ”
"When our people went to inspect, the man disappeared, and if it weren't for the fact that there was a hidden person among the guards, who had excellent hearing, I am afraid that he would not have been able to find it."
Han Li raised a pair of peach blossom eyes and said, "That person has been hiding in the woods, I don't know what he wants, I was afraid of startling the snake, so I didn't say anything." ”
Ji Yuning's slightly narrow eyes showed a hint of sarcasm: "Hmph, presumably he is waiting for someone, continue to monitor, and by the way, see if there is anyone in the mansion to contact him." ”
"Yes! subordinates retired~" With that, Han Li turned around and retreated.
Su Xiaoting has been completely ignorant of food these days, walking and floating, and the questions in her heart have tormented her and she has trouble sleeping.
How did the instructor find her? What about the others?
Is there anything important for the instructor to find her? Could it be about Ari?
There are also instructors who don't see themselves, will they just let go, or will they ...... Waiting? Does he feel that he has never forgiven him?
On the third day, Su Xiaoting's heart had already flown into the forest, and she explained to herself, "Perhaps, he didn't wait for me on the first day, and he had already left!" That's the best~
I just look at it, just look at it. Besides, I still have so many questions in my heart......
In the evening, Su Xiaoting changed into a dark new clothes, suppressed her disordered mood, pretended to take a walk after dinner, and slowly walked out of the main gate of the City Lord's Mansion.
By the time we reached the woods on the east side of the back door, it was past 8 o'clock, and there were scattered stars twinkling in the sky.
Behind the castle lord's mansion, the drawbridge over the moat has been retracted.
On both sides of the waterway leading to the moat, there is a forest on each side, and there are not many pedestrians in normal times, but it is now more and more quiet.
Su Xiaoting looked around as if enjoying the scenery, and saw that there was no one, so she took a deep breath and plunged into the forest.
There was only the occasional chirping of insects and the slight sound of nocturnal foraging animals, and I didn't see the familiar figure until I reached the middle of the woods.
A thick sense of loss welled up in her heart, and she stood still for a moment, wondering if to wait any longer, when a soft sound suddenly came from behind her.
Su Xiaoting suddenly turned around, and the moment she saw the other party, her body surged with an urge to rush over, but not only did she not move, but she also took half a step back.
Shangguan Haozhe, who was standing 5 steps away from Su Xiaoting, suddenly froze in his heart in an instant, and froze in place.
By the moonlight, Su Xiaoting looked at Shangguan Haozhe in disbelief, is this still the noble and handsome Shangguan Major General with a bright smile in her impression?
In front of him, he was wearing the most common coarse cloth blue robe of the people of Mu Ling, with a gray cloth belt tied around his waist, and stepping on a pair of half-used black cloth shoes with scattered mud spots.
Even his hair has grown an inch, and he has changed his previous spiritual hairstyle, and it doesn't seem to be much different from the young people on the streets of Muling.
On the chin that used to be smooth, now a lot of cyan stubble faintly appeared, and between the eyebrows, which had always been straight, were dyed with indescribable melancholy.
Only a pair of deeper eyes, which are amazingly bright at the moment, but there is a faint fear or even desire in them.
Su Xiaoting's hand was clenched tightly, and she unconsciously took two steps forward, forcibly suppressed the soreness in her heart, closed her eyes and opened them again,
"Instructor!"
When Shangguan Haozhe heard this, his body shook slightly, and he felt that the strength returned to his body again.
——————
Ji Yuning wore a black cloak with gold ornaments, and climbed the battlements behind the city lord's mansion, standing here, he could vaguely see the silhouette of a conversation in the woods in the east, under the scattered branches and leaves.
Just now, when Han Li came to report, his heart was raised high, the person who was waiting for the master turned out to be her!
"City Lord," Liu Yuan had a shocked expression on his face, "I, I can't hear their conversation, but I can hear the sounds of the animals in the forest. ”
It was the first time he had encountered this situation.
Ji Yuning was stunned, and waved his hand after a while, "Let's go back!" Leave it to me here, and this matter must not be publicized. ”
Han Li on the side replied respectfully, "Got it, City Lord!" Then he gave Liu Yuan a look and walked down the battlements together.
When he was about to reach the staircase, he couldn't help but turn around, and the peach blossom eyes turned around, and finally took another step.
Ji Yuning helped up the stone statue of Rui Beast standing by the battlement, the color of the pupils in his eyes changed several times, and finally pulled up the hood behind the cloak and jumped down from the battlement.
Like a dark shadow, it fell on the grass by the moat, and disappeared into the corner of the woods like a phantom.
Deep in the forest, the years do not pass.
"That's it......" Just now, Shangguan Haozhe explained why he appeared here, as if he knew Su Xiaoting's worries, and added:
"Rest assured, the people of the United States will not be able to think of this for a while. They have been instilled with the idea that coming here will be genetically contaminated, which is tantamount to self-defeating. ”
"What about you?" Don't you have any scruples?
Shangguan Haozhe's hand moved, and the corners of his lips raised slightly, "When you start to question something, you will find that in fact, many prejudices can't stand scrutiny at all!" ”
Su Xiaoting's heart shook, she couldn't imagine that after the instructor couldn't find her in the United States, he directly crossed the earth and arrived at Cang'er.
In the most luxurious restaurant over there, I overheard Yu Buzzard's attendants, boasting about Ji Meizhan's experience, and finally under his coercion and temptation, he finally got a clue, and then found Mu Ling.
And because I saw that I was accompanying Ji Yingxue for free treatment, I didn't seem to be coerced, and the two of them had not been eliminated, so I asked her to meet in this way.
Although Shangguan Haozhe said it lightly and brushed it off, Su Xiaoting knew that the difficulties and dangers involved were far beyond her imagination.
For the Boundless Lands, the intrusion of the instructors will undoubtedly be regarded as spies and even dangerous elements sent by the traitorous country they hate.
Once caught, with no contact with the United States at all, what awaits him may be no return.
"If I don't show up, are you going to keep waiting?"
Shangguan Haozhe saw a trace of anger flashing in Su Xiaoting's clear eyes, "I always have to see you before I can give up." Xiaoting...... Can you forgive me? ”
Su Xiaoting shook her head, "I know, as a soldier, you can't help yourself, even if I have mind in my heart, but you have saved me so many times, how can I blame a person who thinks about me everywhere?" ”
Shangguan Haozhe's throat rolled, and his eyes were full of brilliance, "Really? …… If only you didn't blame me. ”
Su Xiaoting smiled bitterly, "How could I be so conscienceless and blame the wrong object." ”
Shangguan Haozhe took a step forward and tightly held the Rouyi in his heart:
"Xiaoting, come with me~ You know, I came out to look for you alone, and the airship stopped in the dense forest outside Muling City."
Su Xiaoting's heart skipped a beat, but she said calmly: "I'm fine here, you've been out for so long, it's time to go back." ”
