"Princess!" The general glanced back, looking very anxious.

"Humph! You'd better take care of yourself. Scar Man smiled contemptuously and stabbed the man in the left arm with a sword.

"You...... What do you want? Tanglin Aoxue put her hands behind her back, her eyes full of panic.

"What do you say?" Cross-eyed licked the corners of his mouth and said with a look of ill will.

"Fuck off! Don't come near me! Suddenly, Tanglin Aoxue sprinkled some potion on his face.

In an instant, the skin of the cross-eyed began to fester, and the blood flowed incessantly. He fell to his knees in the carriage and kept screaming.

Looking at this shocking scene, the two of them were stunned for a while.

"Ahhh I'll kill you! The cross-eyed face was hideous, and he gritted his teeth.

Tanglin Aoxue immediately drew his long sword and pierced his chest with a sword.

Soon, the man struggled a few times before he was breathing.

Outside the carriage, the soldiers died and fled, leaving only the general to fight alone. At this moment, he knelt on one foot, holding a sword in one hand to support him. I saw him panting and covered in scars.

The scar man gradually approached, and a hint of murderous intent flashed in his expression. He swung his sword and slashed at the man's neck.

At the last moment, several darts struck at Scar Man.

He immediately leaped backwards, quickly raising his sword to resist.

At the same time, a figure fell from the sky and landed in front of the carriage. "Your Excellency is just for money, so why should you hurt people's lives?" Shangguan Yunyi's face was gloomy, and his tone was cold.

Shangguan Yunyi! How did he end up here? Tanglin Aoxue couldn't help but feel a little surprised.

"Princess, great, it's Yunyi Gongzi!" Xiao Cui tugged at the sleeve of the man's shirt and smiled very happily.

This person's realm is actually the same as mine, and it is also the peak of the Heavenly Rank. The scar man looked sharply at the man in front of him, and couldn't help frowning. If they fight, they will cause unnecessary casualties.

"Brothers, take the horses, take the boxes, and withdraw!" The scar man commanded in a loud voice.

After a while, the robbers around him disappeared.

At this time, the kneeling general covered his chest and spewed out a mouthful of hot blood with a "poof".

Seeing this, Shangguan Yunyi flew to his side and asked with concern, "How are you?" As he spoke, he transferred the aura in the dantian to the human body.

"Yunyi Gongzi, don't bother. It's useless, I don't have long to live. At this moment, the general's face was pale, his forehead was full of sweat, and the blood at the corners of his mouth was thicker.

As he spoke, he trembled and took out a jade pendant from his arms. "I beg you to do me a favor."

"You say." Shangguan Yunyi's expression was very solemn.

"Please send this jade pendant to a woman named Liu Yue'e in Liujia Village, outside the southern city. In this life, it was I who lost her and made her ...... Let her ......" Before he finished speaking, the general lowered his eyes and closed his eyes, and the jade pendant slipped from his hand to the ground.

Shangguan Yunyi clenched his right fist and picked up the jade pendant with a little blood stains very painfully. "Don't worry, I'll bring it for you."

Looking at the scene in front of them, the two people in the carriage felt a little sad. Especially Tanglin Aoxue, after all, he died to protect himself.

............

As night fell, the surroundings gradually darkened.

At this moment, the three of them sat around the fire, and no one spoke.

"Come, princess, eat. Xiao Cui, this one is for you. Shangguan Yunyi handed the grilled fish to the two of them.

Tanglin Aoxue silently took the grilled fish from the person's hand, and her mood seemed to be a little low.

"Thank you, Mr. Yunyi." Xiao Cui said softly.

Suddenly, someone started crying.

"Princess, what's wrong with you?" Xiao Cui was just about to take a bite when he heard the mournful cry of Donglin Aoxue, and couldn't help but be a little worried.

"Just let her cry." Shangguan Yunyi replied lightly, and then put a few skewered fish on the fire.

As soon as the words were finished, the man stopped crying, and only a few choked voices remained. "Why are you like this? I cried so sadly. Tanglin Aoxue said with an aggrieved face.

"It's better to let your emotions out."

"But...... But I can't cry now. ”

Belch...... Listening to her words, Shangguan Yunyi's face was full of black lines. "Let's eat fish."

"Oh." After speaking, Tanglin Aoxue began to chew and swallow slowly.

"Master Yunyi, I wonder why you came here alone?" Xiao Cui asked while eating, looking a little puzzled.

Shangguan Yunyi was stunned for a moment, Xia Lianxin's smiling face appeared in his mind, and said wistfully: "I'll come out to relax." ”

"I see." Sensing the change in people's mood, Xiao Cui didn't continue to talk and quietly ate the grilled fish.

............

"Ahem, cough~" At this time, something happened to someone and he was stuck by a fish bone.

"Come, drink some water." Shangguan Yunyi said softly.

"Thank you." Tanglin Aoxue took the water bag and drank it with a grunt.

A quarter of an hour later, all three were full.

"Princess, I wonder what you plan for tomorrow? Do you continue to the Western Regions, or do you want to return to the Imperial Palace? Wechen can escort both of you. Shangguan Yunyi asked.

Hearing this, Tanglin Aoxue was silent for a while, and then said with a lonely face: "The trip to the Western Regions was not my will. Palace, I don't want to go back, let them all think I'm dead. As she spoke, a tear slipped from the corner of her eye.

"Princess......" Xiao Cui pursed her lips, her expression a little complicated.

"Xiaocui, I'm fine." At this moment, a wry smile squeezed out of the corner of Tanglin Aoxue's mouth. "By the way, don't call me princess. From now on, there will be no more aventurine snow in the world, my name is Mo Worry. ”

"Don't worry, hehe, good name." Shangguan Yunyi said with a smile.

"Yunyi...... Big brother, can I call you that? Tanglin Aoxue paused for a moment and said softly tentatively.

This salutation always made people feel a little awkward, but Shangguan Yunyi still smiled and nodded.

"Thank you, I owe you a favor again. I'm afraid, I won't have a chance to pay it back in this life. Tanglin Aoxue smiled helplessly.

"Don't worry, this life is over, there is an afterlife, don't worry." Shangguan Yunyi raised his eyebrows and couldn't help but tease.

Hearing this, Tanglin Aoxue and Xiaocui both laughed.

"By the way, Xiao Cui, if it is...... If you still have relatives outside the palace, you don't need to follow me anymore. ”

"Back to ......" Xiaocui was stunned, and she didn't know what to call Donglin Aoxue for a while.

"Would you like to call me sister?" At this moment, Tanglin Aoxue was a little nervous.

"Sister...... Sister, Xiaocui was abducted by traffickers since she was a child, and she was sent to the palace by accident. In this world, there are no relatives who can be remembered. Saying that, Xiao Cui's mood was a little low.

Then, she looked at Donglin Aoxue and said with a smile: "From now on, Xiaocui is willing to spend the rest of her life with her sister." ”

"Okay." Hearing this, Tanglin Aoxue was very relieved. Perhaps, she felt that she was no longer alone.

To you, strangers: the vast sea of books, meeting is fate!
