The stars are quiet in the middle of the night, and the autumn breeze is cool.

Five horsemen came from the dust, and the knights were dusty and dusty, coarse clothes and shirts.

They go out day and night, the starry night rushes, the sky is faint when the rain is floating, fine and dense, the pavilions and pavilions are shrouded in rain and mist, looking from afar, if you are about to leave.

"It's too close to the road, let's walk through the woods and rest again, I've been here on missions before, and I remember there's a ruined temple over there." The head man is about thirty years old, with a slight beard under the palate, he is Xu An.

On that day, when the five of them escaped from the inn, they were noticed by the guards left by Yang Jincheng to take care of them, and the two sides clashed, but fortunately escaped.

They were Yang Jie's carefully selected followers in the Flying Fish Guard, and they were more than enough to deal with the soldiers of the guard.

Whether Yang Jincheng believes it or not, in the eyes of everyone, the five of them are dead.

Now, they are going to Beizhili, and before Yang Jincheng arrives in the capital, they will arrange their relatives in Beizhili.

In the past few days, they have slept during the day and hurried at night, wearing the stars and the moon, non-stop.

After walking through a jujube forest and walking for more than a mile, there was indeed a small temple on the side of the road.

The small temple is in tatters, the plaque is missing, even the temple door is missing, and on the bare half of the door frame, a spider is building a web.

Xu An looked up at the rainy sky, and then looked at the clothes that were still dripping on the bodies of several people, and said, "Azhi, shrimp head, you go to find some dry firewood nearby; Double happiness, you are answering outside; Fellow passers, you and I go into the temple to check. ”

The four of them responded and acted separately, and Xu An and Lu You tiptoed into the small temple.

The temple is not dedicated to the Guanyin master of Pudu sentient beings, nor is it Nyolai or Maitreya, the color on the clay statue has been mottled, but it can still be seen that this is a middle-aged man dressed as a scribe.

It turned out to be the Lu Xian Temple.

Lu You was about to speak, Xu An touched his arm and pointed to the ground.

The ground was covered with dust, and it was not known how long it had not been cleaned, and the footprints were messy, so it was clear that people often rested here, and it was not surprising that there was a date grove nearby, and farmers occasionally took shelter from the rain and wind.

What Xu An pointed out to the roaders was the footprints behind the clay statue.

People in the world are afraid of ghosts and gods, even immortals like Lu Dongbin, so few people will go behind the Buddha statue.

Xu An and Lu You glanced at each other, the two of them remained silent, held down the handle of the knife, and walked behind the clay statue along those footprints.

There are two people behind the clay statue, one lying and one squatting.

The lying man couldn't see his face clearly, and the figure was a tall man, and a little girl was squatting beside him, looking at the two uninvited guests in front of him with wary eyes.

Seeing that it was such two people, Xu An and Lu You's hearts fell.

Looking at their appearance, they should be ordinary people, most of them missed the lodging in a hurry, and spent the night in this dilapidated temple.

"You're passing by?" Xu An asked.

"Hmm." The little girl replied angrily.

Xu An took another step closer and looked down at the person lying on the ground condescendingly.

He didn't see it clearly just now, but now when he looked closely, he found that both the person lying down and the little girl next to him were all in tatters, and the man was wrapped in a cloth belt, and blood was oozing out through the cloth belt.

"He's hurt?" Xu An asked again.

"Hmm."

The little girl's gaze kept wandering over the two of them, and Xu An's heart that had just been put down was lifted again.

For some reason, the little girl's gaze made him feel that something was wrong.

"How did he get hurt?" Xu An looked at the parts of the man's injuries, one on his shoulder and the other on his leg.

He is a martial arts practitioner, and those who practice martial arts more or less know how to heal injuries, and this person's two wounds are not like ordinary bruises in terms of location or bandaging method.

It's a cut or an arrow wound!

"What's your business?" The little girl said coldly.

"Also, we're just passers-by, it's raining outside, so we want to take shelter from the rain here, so it's disturbing." Xu An said politely that in this situation, he would not relax just because the other party was a child.

This time, the little girl didn't speak, and the man lying on the ground muttered something, and she hurriedly leaned over to check, brushed away the messy hair on the man's face, and tried the man's forehead with her hand.

"He has a fever?" Xu An asked.

The little girl said "um" and didn't look at him.

Xu An didn't ask again, he glanced at Lu You, and the two turned around and walked out from behind the clay statue.

Walking out of the small temple, I was about to talk to Wang Shuangxi, who was standing outside, when I saw Azhi and Shrimp Head coming over with Chai He.

"There is a big one and a small one inside, the big one is injured, these two people are a little weird, let's not make trouble, leave immediately." Xu An said.

He was the leader of the five, and he said to leave, and the other four had no objection.

Even if the two people in the temple were not their opponents, at this moment, they didn't want to cause trouble in vain.

The five of them were about to get on their horses, when Wang Shuangxi suddenly booed, and then they all heard the sound of horses' hooves.

Wang Shuangxi had already checked outside just now, and there was a path next to the broken temple that could go around to the back of the temple, where there was a piece of dead grass and two old lonely graves.

They immediately got on their horses and got on the path.

After settling the horses, the shrimp head quietly slipped out to check the movement. He found a big tree, and as soon as he hid his body, he saw more than a dozen riders coming out of the jujube forest and heading towards the ruined temple.

Seeing the outfits of these people, the shrimp head was startled, and hurriedly ran to the back of the small temple: "It's Feiyuwei, I don't know any of them." ”

Among the five of them, Shrimp Head's qualifications are the latest, he entered the Flying Fish Guard, and was favored by Yang Jie, and picked up the errands by his side, the people in the Flying Fish Guard, except for those who often walk around Yang Jie, he doesn't know much about the other people.

This is already the north, and it is the territory of the Flying Fish Guard, and the Flying Fish Guard can act in the bright light without having to disguise himself like in the south.

But in such a desolate and dilapidated temple, how could there be a flying fish guard?

Xu An lowered his voice and said, "It should be for the person in the temple." ”

The one he was talking about was referring to the injured man, and as for the little girl, she was just a child.

Xu An said to Azhi: "You go and see the situation." ”

Aji took out the handkerchief from his bosom, covered his face, and the cat bent down and ran quickly towards the path, but as soon as he ran up the path, he heard a shout of killing, and then he saw a little girl running towards this side with a person on her back.

Behind the little girl, several Flying Fish Guards were running after her.

Azhi didn't have time to dodge, and was taking a picture with the little girl, he was taken aback, this little girl was only eight or nine years old, and she was carrying a tall man on her back, she was short, the man's half leg was dragging on the ground, and one shoe had fallen off.
