The snow is white and the north wind is whistling. Yan Qingge sat on horseback, and his heart was raised to his throat, for fear that the people of Ejibu had already shifted their positions, or that Le Xuan had an accident without waiting for them to come to their rescue.

She hadn't been so nervous in years, and she could even feel the pounding of her heart under her chest.

"Niangniang, this is the water that the frost girl specially asked me to bring you, you can drink the water." A soldier of the Yanwang Mansion who followed took out the kettle from the side pocket of the saddle and handed it to Yan Qingge.

This kettle is characteristic, the inner layer is made of porcelain, the outer layer is covered with a layer of copper skin, and the outermost layer is also wrapped in thick fur, which is very warm. After galloping for a long time, when I opened the lid, the water inside was still emitting white smoke, as if it was still warm.

It's just that this kettle can hold not much water, Yan Qingge went into battle lightly, naturally she didn't bring such a heavy and cost-effective thing, but she didn't expect Xunshuang to have this heart and let someone else carry it for her.

After taking a sip of hot water, Yan Qingge's frozen internal organs regained some heat, and his numb feet felt much better.

Women are not as yang as men, and she is offended by such a hundred miles of galloping, which is unimaginable to those men.

Ahead, the military general Qiao Sheng has been searching the mountain for half an hour, and he doesn't know when he will be able to get results.

There were about 50 people left outside, each on horseback and armed with weapons, and surrounded the hill.

After waiting for a while, Yan Qingge's heart moved, and he suddenly asked the people around him, "I have only seen mines in books, which of you has ever been to a real mine?" What kind of excavation method is the mine hole, is it the same as the book says, for fear of the collapse of the mining place, the mine will specially dig out an extra section, and set up another exit outside the mine? ”

These remaining Yanwang Mansion generals were also unaware of the situation, and looked at each other one by one.

Instead, a guard from Yuhu City stepped forward and said, "Report to Niangniang!" The villain once went down to the pit, and the tunnels inside were deep and long, like a labyrinth, and indeed some of the tunnels would lead to the outside. ”

"Thirty people, follow me, and search the neighborhood carefully! They must not be allowed to escape through the mine tunnels outside. Yan Qingge waved his hand, commanded, and counted his long lance, bow and arrow, as if he was going into battle to kill the enemy.

Ekibe chose this place as a hiding place, and this place must have its advantages, perhaps because of its complex mine tunnels and natural escape convenience.

She rode her horse and sent her men to search around the mine, and she rode her own horse to the north.

At the beginning, everyone was not far away, but as the search range increased, in everyone's eyes, other people slowly became a small point, especially when the wind blew, the cold snow was rolled up by the flat bottom, blocking people's vision, which not only increased the difficulty of the search, but also made it difficult for even companions to see clearly.

Yan Qingge simply dismounted, holding a lance in his hand, carefully looking for clues. And the horse she was riding, because of its good training, followed the master obediently, and followed it in every step.

Suddenly, Yan Qingge stopped and picked up something from the snow.

It was a gold ring, roughly made of red gold, lying on the snow.

Yan Qingge had seen many barbarians before, and he recognized it as soon as he saw it, and this golden ring was used by some brave barbarians to wear their noses.

On the snow, the oblique marks inserted when the golden ring fell are still there, which shows that it fell here not long ago, and it has not been buried by the wind and snow falling in the air.

Yan Qingge turned over on his horse, pouted his tongue with his hand, and gave a long and loud whistle, reminding himself that he had found a clue here, and called for the nearby soldiers to come.

This golden ring should have fallen here for no more than a quarter of an hour, Yan Qingge searched carefully, and sure enough, he found shallow foot marks on the ground, although most of them were buried by the wind and snow, but there were still traces.

At this time, there is no waiting, every time you blink your eyes, the traces left by these barbarians will be swept away by the wind and snow, and if you stay any longer, they will disappear completely.

She strode forward, deep and shallow, following the clues left by the barbarians, groping her way forward.

The heavy snow fell on the grassland for three days and three nights, with only occasional stops in the middle, and the snow had already reached Yan Qingge's calf. It's also thanks to her that she's tall and slender, and if she's as tall as an ordinary woman, the snow should be up to her knees, and it's even more inconvenient to move.

Stumbling all the way, Yan Qingge's eyes suddenly lit up, and he picked out a green jade wrench from the snow, and there was a little scarlet blood on the wrench.

Yan Qingge looked familiar with this wrench, turned around to take a look, and sure enough, he saw a small Xuan character engraved on the inside, which was something that Le Xuan was wearing.

In this way, the nose ring that she picked up just now was not accidentally dropped, but Le Xuan deliberately did it to leave people with his clues.

Yan Qingge was excited in his heart, Le Xuan is still alive, it's good!

The blood on her finger was still fresh, proving that she was getting closer and closer to the barbarians.

The gale swept the snowflakes into Yan Qingge's throat, but at this moment, she didn't feel uncomfortable at all, but instead had a strong excitement in her chest. A pair of slender fingers frozen into transparent pink, firmly gripping the handle of the long lance, eager to swing away the long wind and smash the barbarian lair.

Suddenly, there was a small neighing sound of horses on the left, this place was not close to the place they were searching, it would definitely not be her companion, Yan Qingge's body sped up, and walked towards that place.

After walking two steps, he recognized a group of four people from the snow.

Three of them were clearly dressed as barbarians, dressed in bloated fur clothes, and were already stout and tall, but now they looked more like bears.

The last man, dressed in a blue cotton shirt and tied to his wrists and ankles with a leather rope, was placed on the back of a horse dragged behind the three men.

Yan Qingge's eyes were hot, wasn't it Le Xuan who was thrown on horseback like a sack!

She looked closely, but found no accomplices of these barbarians nearby, so she made up her mind, patted her horse's body, motioned for it to stay where it was, and quietly touched it from the side.

Walking in the snow, every step will creak, even if Yan Qingge tears off a large section of his clothes and wraps the soles of his feet, he can't completely eliminate the sound, although the wind and snow are heavy, but then he will inevitably reveal his stuffing!

She usually has a good force, but she has never fought in such a restrained snow, and those three barbarians are masters at a glance, and they carry snowy broadswords, she can protect herself in front of these three people, but she can't escape with Le Xuan.

At that time, if Le Xuan was not rescued, but let them be fierce and kill Le Xuan on the spot, the matter would never be undone.

Yan Qingge pondered quietly, and unconsciously played with the green jade wrench he had just picked up in his hand. She suddenly had an idea, took off the small bow she was carrying on her back, wrapped her hand in a strip of cloth, and used her finger as an arrow to shoot it towards Le Xuan.

Yan Qingge's archery was accurate, although she was not using a feather arrow now, but the wrench was still as she expected, and it hit Le Xuan accurately.

Le Xuan thought that it was very painful to be beaten, his body slammed on the horse's back, and he turned his head to look, but he didn't know if he had found the wrench. If he found out, he would have known that someone had come to save him, and with his cleverness, he would definitely create an opportunity for Yan Qingge.

Yan Qingge waited patiently, and followed the three barbarians for about half an hour, when Le Xuan on horseback suddenly shouted, and the barbarians turned around viciously, not knowing what they shouted at Le Xuan.

Yan Qingge was afraid that they would find their traces, so he wrapped the white snow fox in his pocket, revealing only his snow-white face, which was inconspicuous in this snowstorm.

The sound of the wind spread the words of their conversation to Yan Qingge's ears, and he could vaguely hear words like "come down, stiffen".

These three barbarians were fierce and vicious, and they were unceremonious to Le Xuan, but they still dragged him off the horse, probably because they were afraid that something would really happen to Le Xuan.

When Le Xuan dismounted, one leg hooked the horse's mane, and the painful horse let out another long neigh. He couldn't get any good, so he kicked the three barbarians in the back and landed the snow.

Yan Qingge could see clearly that Fang Cai Le Xuan's actions were deliberate, he refused to get up for a long time, and shouted at those barbarians on the ground, and the three barbarians seemed to be angered by him, waving their fists and wanting to come forward and beat people.

But one of them didn't know what to say, and the other two praised it so much that they laughed, and even pulled the rope tied to Le Xuan's wrists and ankles, tied it directly to the saddle, and led the horse to walk in front.

Le Xuan treated it as if it was an object, and was dragged on the snow regardless of life or death.

The rope was very long, about ten meters long, probably there were no signs of danger around, and Le Xuan was tied strongly, these barbarians looked back frequently at the beginning, and after a while, the frequency of looking back became lower and lower, and it took about half an hour to look at it once.

Yan Qingge's eyes flashed, these barbarians would never treat Le Xuan like this for no reason, it must be Le Xuan's bitter trick.

Time was not waiting, Yan Qingge untied the fluffy snow fox cloak on his back, divided it into several parts, tied it into several sections with the rope he brought, and suddenly saw that there was a head, a body, and limbs, which looked like a human shape.

She thought about it again, took off her fur hat, cut off her hair, which was crooked to the crook of her legs, and tied the long hair into a bundle with a rope and tied it firmly to the end of the snow fox's cloak, making the cloak look more like a person.

Those barbarians glanced back at Le Xuan a few more times, Yan Qingge knew that they would not pay attention to this side in a short time, so he took out the warm dagger from his arms, ran towards Le Xuan quickly, ran nearby, and slashed the leather rope that tied Le Xuan.

"Sting"

Le Xuan's cyan robe was torn and dragged off, and Yan Qing pointed to the crazy movement and tied the smock to the snow fox cloak.

She pulled down the two soap boots on Le Xuan's feet again, and quickly stuffed them into the shape of the snow fox's cloak that was clumped into feet.

Before Le Xuan came back to his senses, Yan Qingge had already completed all his movements, and the horse dragged the mass disguised as Le Xuan, and continued to walk forward without hurrying.

"Qingge, it's you!" Le Xuan looked at Yan Qingge who rolled to his side a few times in disbelief, and lowered his voice and said.

When he was hit by a wrench just now, he knew that someone was coming to save him, but he didn't expect that the person who came turned out to be Yan Qingge.
