Xiao Li walked to the Wu family's courtyard after leaving the Liluo courtyard, and she didn't know how long it would take to go to Xiliang. She was afraid that as soon as she left, Duguyin would send people to attack again.

So now we must discuss defensive countermeasures with the Wu clan, otherwise it will be troublesome to lose the defense.

Wu's yard is very simple, and there are only some easy-to-feed flowers and plants around it, which is not at all like the kind of yard where the housewife lives. On the other hand, looking at Mrs. Xu's yard, it can be seen that Mrs. Xu is a backyard woman who competes for favor.

"Li'er, what's the matter?"

Even if Wu is at home, she will not relax, this will make her practice swords. She wiped the sweat from her face and walked over to Xiao Li.

Xiao Li scratched her head, but she was a little embarrassed to disturb her martial arts practice: "Mother, I want to go out for a while." ”

Wu put down what he was holding and led Xiao Li to the room. The well-behaved maid had already made the tea, and the cup was still steaming.

"Where are you going?" Wu took a sip of tea, and the expression on his face did not change at all.

Xiao Li didn't sit down, saluted and lowered his head and said, "Xiliang." ”

Wu's face changed suddenly, but he quickly returned to his original state: "Okay, it's good to come back early." ”

Xiao Li raised his head in surprise, the Wu clan actually let her go without even asking for a reason. She smiled, knowing that the Wu family trusted her, so she would be so relieved to let her leave, it was good to have such a mother-in-law.

"The daughter-in-law retired there."

After Xiao Li said goodbye to the Wu family, he left, returning to his yard to tidy up his things.

Although it was spring, the snow in the yard had not completely melted. The arrogant plum blossoms bloomed in the cold, and the dazzling red flowers made people stop.

A man stood in the courtyard, thinly dressed, with a thin face and a high nose. He was staring at the plum blossoms, his amber eyes shining with brilliance.

At this moment, a woman who was a little shorter than him, dressed simply, lightly, and with narrow sleeves, walked out. The small face reveals a heroic spirit, but the unpowdered face has a natural beauty, which makes people feel beautiful when they look at it.

Zhu lips lightly opened: "Let's leave when everything is packed." ”

The man followed behind the woman, his thin lips hooked, and he seemed to be happy.

"Xiao Li'er! Wait for me! An old man ran out of breath, waving his hands and motioning for them to stop.

Xiao Li turned around and glanced at the old man, and asked puzzledly, "Grandpa Fang, what are you doing with your baggage?" You're going to Xiliang too? ”

The old man supported his knees with his hands and gasped: "Why didn't you tell me when you went to Xiliang?" Fortunately, your maid told me, otherwise I wouldn't have been able to catch up. ”

Wei Yanwu was dressed in red on the snow, very eye-catching, coupled with a demonic face, but he just stood quietly on the side and did not speak.

"The old man wants to kill the person who harmed people with blood with his own hands to avenge his marriage!" Fang Xiong's face showed a fierce light, his usual kindness and kindness were gone, and his fists were clenched.

Xiao Li glanced at Wei Yanwu, but Wei Yanwu didn't speak, and let Fang Xiong go with him by default.

So the four of them rode their horses and quietly left Qisu. No one noticed their departure either.

Xiliang is still far away from Shengguo, and it will take Xiao Li and them about four or five days to arrive. Moreover, Xiliang is located in a remote area, and the perennial rainfall is cool and humid, breeding many poisonous insects.

The people of Xiliang are also very smart and use such an environment to make a natural barrier. If you take a wrong step, you will be attacked by those poisonous insects until you die. This is also the reason why many people do not want to attack Xiliang.

But fortunately, they have Wei Yan to lead the way, and the difficulty of going to Xiliang will be reduced a lot. And there is a miracle doctor by his side, and he is not afraid of poisonous insects.

In order to hurry, several people slept in the open air. In the evening, Hui Shangyi will teach Xiao Li to play the piccolo, first, so that she can play better; One is to let her master a little insect control technique, so that she will not be killed by insects in Xiliang.

"It's almost there, and it's much easier to get to the entrance of Xiliang." Wei Yanwu rode on his horse and looked into the distance.

Xiao Li glanced up at the sky, it was already completely dark. A crescent moon hung in the sky, and there was an indescribable uneasiness. Ahead was a dark and dreary forest, and it looked like a dead silence.

I don't know what kind of bird is in the tree, it is crying miserably, as if it is conveying some sad message.

But in addition to the birdsong, there are also some insect calls around, which are subtle but make people's scalp tingle.

"Let's just rest where we are for the night." Xiao Li felt that he couldn't hurry anymore at night, and it should be the insect array that Wei Yanwu said in front of him.

When several people heard this, they did not object, and they all dismounted to find firewood for the night. It was humid at night, and in order to protect against the cold, they would light a fire at night.

It didn't take long for them to find a pile of firewood. The humidity here in Xiliang is more serious than other places, and even if there is a fire primer, you can't light firewood.

After some tossing and turning to no avail, Xiao Li gave up. Wave

Looks like we're going to have to be extra careful tonight.

Wei Yanwu didn't feel strange, he was used to such a situation: "Let's eat something first, the humidity here is too heavy, be careful tonight!" ”

Xiao Li took the food from Hui Shangyi's hand and nodded with a solemn expression. She can't die here, Hui Shangyi is still waiting for her.

In the past, Fang Xiong would complain about sleeping outside at night, but today he was very quiet, and his spiritual eyes kept looking around.

"There are a lot of poisonous insects here, all of them are very poisonous, you should be careful." Fang Xiong stood up and handed out a small bottle of medicinal powder to everyone, "This medicinal powder can repel insects." ”

Xiao Li took it with peace of mind, and Wei Yanwu did not refuse them, and thanked Fang Xiong.

"It's not early, go to bed. Today I come to the vigil. Xiao Li sighed, his tone revealing exhaustion.

It's already warm spring, but it's still cold in Xiliang. The cold wind blew Xiao Li's face, and it hurt like a knife.

There were a few mournful screams from time to time in the distance, and a soybean-sized insect actually killed the little bird that returned late, only to see that the bird's wings were still trembling slightly.

Suddenly, there was a thick fog all around. Xiao Li cautiously stood up and woke everyone up. A few people who hadn't slept too long were all cheered up.

A few people sprang out of the thick fog, and a sword approached Xiao Li. Fortunately, in the reflection of the moonlight, Xiao Li saw the tip of the sword and immediately blocked it with the meniscus knife that had been prepared.

After the experience of the battlefield, Xiao Li's physical strength has been greatly improved, and he blocked it with one hand.

"Are you alright? Little Li'er! Wei Yanwu also noticed the people in the dense fog, and immediately moved closer to Xiao Li, "There are a few people in the dense fog, be careful." ”

Xiao Li didn't speak, nodded and was back to back with Wei Yanwu. Ah Jing protects Fang Xiong alone, and Fang Xiong's martial arts are not bad, so don't worry too much.

The sneak attackers knew that they had been discovered, and they did not continue to hide, and rushed up one by one silently.

Xiao Li did not relent, and directly threw out the meniscus knife in his sleeve. The sneak attackers were injured by Xiao Li, but they didn't make any sound, and still rushed at them.

At this moment, a person with a sword suddenly came from the other side, and Wei Yanwu stopped and killed this person without turning around.

The people who came were not strong, and it didn't take long for them to clean up these people. Xiao Li also deliberately left a live mouth, wanting to interrogate something, but this person bit his tongue and committed suicide.

"These people are dead soldiers, and they can't ask anything if they keep them." Wei Yanwu looked at the person who had just died on the ground, his face expressionless.

He didn't expect that person to be so bold, and as soon as they arrived at the entrance, he sent someone to test his strength. It seems that Xiliang has been getting more and more out of control recently, and Wei Yan can't help but blame himself in his heart.

Xiao Li looked at the dead corpses on the ground and frowned: "Wei Yanwu, do you know who it is?" ”

Wei Yanwu shook his head and smiled bitterly: "If I knew who it was, I would have done it directly, and I wouldn't have come out to look for you." ”

Xiao Li nodded, although she had already solved a group of people, she knew that it would definitely be more difficult in the future, and she didn't dare to relax for a moment: "Let's set off now." ”

After Wei Yanwu and Fang Xiong both thought about it for a while, they nodded in agreement.

"You walk between me and Ah Jing, and the poisonous insects in Xiliang can't be prevented." Wei Yanwu didn't say anything, so he protected Xiao Li and Fang Xiong behind him, and Ah Jing also followed behind in time.

The night was deep, and when they stepped into the forest, countless birds arose and let out their oozing calls. Countless pairs of eyes lit up instantly, all staring at them.

It was the first time Xiao Li had seen such a formation, but she was not afraid, and still looked around carefully with a calm face.

"Be careful!" Wei Yanwu's voice spread far away in the huge forest, and in an instant, those glowing eyes rushed towards them.

Fang Xiong took out the medicinal powder and sprinkled it towards the group of things, the amount was much less. So he spilled more powder, but the latter didn't seem to be afraid of it.

Wei Yanwu frowned, took out the piccolo and began to play. The sound of music lingered in the forest, and all the creatures fell silent as if they had heard a lullaby.

Just when they thought it would work, the bugs went on a rampage again. Wei Yanwu's face was not good-looking, and he changed another sheet music, but it had no effect.

Xiao Li had no choice but to take out the piccolo that Fang Xiong gave her, and began to play it according to Wei Yan's untaught instructions.

This music is even more beautiful than the one just now, and people are addicted to it. Now the insects dispersed automatically, as if they were surrendering.

"Sure enough, it still takes Xiao Li'er to suppress them." Wei Yanwu saw that the insect swarm had disappeared, and said with a relieved smile.

Xiao Li was modest, and looked like it wasn't a big deal: "It's thanks to Miaoyin, but why are there so many bugs when we just entered Xiliang?" ”

Speaking of this, Wei Yanwu didn't know how to explain it. What happened to the civil strife in Xiliang? Who is that person? Why did he attack as soon as they came in?

These questions plagued Wei Yanwu, making him eager to return to the capital of Xiliang all the time to find out.
