Chapter 364: The Cruel Truth

After this battle, most of the people in the caravan were really big, and they dared to stay in this inn, and honestly set up their own tents, preferring to sleep around the carriage. When they came out this time, they didn't do anything to enjoy the mountains and rivers, but they still had to protect the goods, and when the time came, it was important to finish safely. Since it has been exposed, there is no need to attach to the caravan anymore, Hua Manxi gave a little silver very apologetically, and went upstairs.

There was a lot of steaming in that room, and anyone who went in was going to be swept out. As if to see that Hua Manxi was not a person in the rivers and lakes, and there was no force, the palace master slowed down for a while, and then waved his sleeves, and the door opened. Hua Manxi didn't dare to look at it more, and as soon as he put the food and drink on the table, he hurried out. She had a vague feeling that the palace master was trying his best to suppress a little of his murderous intent, and any slightly heavier pressure would make him angry and kill again.

In her spare time, she also heard Xu Jinfei say a lot of secrets about the rivers and lakes, if the practice is not proper and the path is not right, such people generally will not live long. On the second day, the palace master carried the broken leaves, and the blood-stained white clothes were not changed, so he got into his carriage. Living in Beijing for a long time, Hua Manxi has also seen a lot of the style of the rich and noble, not to mention the splendor and magnificence of the palace, so he saw this extremely large and beautiful carriage, but he was not surprised.

However, some of the mechanisms in it were cleverly changed, which still made her feel very curious. In this age when the productive forces are backward, to be able to use wisdom to make such complex things must have a mind beloved by God. The palace master took out the pill from a small drawer, tore open his shirt directly, and smashed it on his chest. Broken Leaf smiled bitterly, and didn't know what to say, so he just lay down honestly.

The carriage is very wide, more than enough to accommodate the two of them, Hua Manxi is silent, shrinking in the corner to taste a kind of dried black plum, this kind of only the Lingnan region will not deviate the taste, to the capital and then plant, it is pure sweetness, but greasy and crooked. The people who drove the car were all dressed in white and wearing golden crowns on their heads, and they all looked slender and delicate, but when they ran, they were even faster than horses.

Danyun hissed in his heart, and secretly said that he was a loser. There should be such a guard of honor in the Linghua Palace, responsible for the palace master's travel. After all, the palace master rarely goes out, so he has to make a majestic pomp every time. Qingzhou is also the base camp of Linghua Palace, and there is no need to be afraid, it is like a dragon entering the sea, and there is nothing to fear. In the past few days, the palace master did not say a word, let alone take off his mask. Only a pair of eyes as cold as frost, most of the time looking at broken leaves, a small part of the time looking at the flowers full of streams and light clouds.

When he arrived at Lianyun Mountain, Hua Manxi finally breathed a sigh of relief. To be honest, the carriage is not uncomfortable, but too comfortable. There's even a soft pillow for the bed, so you can grind it all day. But she is not a lazy person, and several times she wanted to go down to breathe the wind, but she was turned back by the eyes of the maids and the palace master. I was bored all day long, and I couldn't move, and when I lay back, I felt that my bones were going to be crispy.

There was really nothing to do, so she borrowed a flute and tried to play a few pieces that she hadn't practiced for a long time, because she was going to surprise Xu Jinfei as soon as they met. Come to think of it, it's not noisy, and the palace master shouldn't mind if you think about it. Who knew that as soon as she blew the beginning, the palace master suddenly opened his eyes. Hua Manxi was startled and waited for him to speak. He was silent for a long time, and then asked in a low voice: "This song is a little familiar, where did you learn it?" ”

Hua Manxi stuck out his tongue in his heart, and said in his heart that this is a modern song, slightly cheerful and lively, different from the ancient tune, and naturally looks chic. But I thought so in my heart, I couldn't say that, so I hesitated for a moment before I said casually: "I'm a beginner, and I've heard others play some country tunes before, but I only memorized a little bit and blew them casually." If the palace master is noisy, I will take the flute. That's right, that ...... Broken Leaf ...... You okay? ”

When she asked, she also wanted to test the attitude of the palace master. Hua Manxi knows that there is a kind of person in this world, that is, the knife mouth tofu heart. The kindness of others to him, he does not speak, but he will remember it in his heart. In the same way, such a person, once he has made a decision, is also the most decisive. But looking at his attitude towards Broken Leaves, it hasn't reached this point yet. If there is room to turn around, why do you have to go to a dead end and face each other with swords?

The palace master was strangely silent, and only after a while did he raise his eyes, and for the first time he carefully looked at Hua Manxi a few times, and suddenly asked, "You care about him so much, do you like him?" This sentence caught Hua Manxi off guard, and the sense of doubt on her face almost turned into a sentence and flew out, and she quickly waved her hand and said, "Why do you think like this, I am a person with a husband." Honestly, it's ...... between you."

Speaking of this, she suddenly saved something, and quickly swallowed the second half of the sentence back. The palace master snorted coldly, disapproving what he didn't say, but after looking at her carefully, he nodded and said, "It's me who guessed wrong, it turns out that you are the lady surnamed Xu." He's weird, and you're kind of funny, and you're right. ”

Although it doesn't sound like a compliment, no matter how you say it, you can hear Deng right, and Hua Manxi can't say anything bad about him. She wanted to make a trick and set up a set of past events between the palace master and broken leaves, but the palace master seemed to see through what she was thinking, and said lightly: "For the sake of the surname Xu and Ah Ye, I will bring you to Lianyun Mountain safely." But I'm the most annoying woman who asks the bottom of the matter and talks a lot. If you insist on asking the question, I will throw you out of the car. ”

Hua Manxi believes that sometimes some people in the rivers and lakes really don't have any grace. But since she was a reserved and intelligent woman, she didn't intend to ask more questions to test his true bottom line, so she was very smart to keep her mouth shut. It's a pity that this flute obviously can't be played anymore. She honestly retracted it, looking at the light clouds as if she was concentrating on studying some pictures, and she didn't dare to disturb, as soon as she closed her eyes, she made up for the previous day and night.

Compared to Broken Leaves, she felt that she was lucky. On the second day of the journey, Broken Leaf didn't know what to say to the palace master, which annoyed him, and the palace master went down with a knife in one hand, and Broken Leaf lay in the carriage honestly, not even having a chance to open his eyelids. When he was unconscious, the palace master was very patient and fed him a bowl of hot and fishy medicine on time, so he also kept unconscious. Occasionally, the palace master would vent his anger, pulling his face and son, kneading and pinching, rubbing the handsome face of the other family red.

No matter what happened on the road, they finally arrived at Lianyun Mountain. Naturally, it is inevitable to meet those monkeys. The Linghua Palace Lord did not have such a good temper, he caught five or six in a row with an expressionless face, and threw them directly from the edge of the high cliff, and the monkeys did not dare to approach, and after wailing a few times one after another, there was a flute from the top of the cliff, and they retreated.

Broken Leaf had woken up last night, but she didn't speak, and her face was serious and scary, Hua Manxi would not go high and low, and the mountain path was very steep, and the light clouds wanted to take care of her, so she fell behind. By the time the two of them climbed up, the palace master and Broken Leaf had already walked to the northern part of the mountaintop, where there was a small black dot that seemed to have a family. Hua Manxi stretched his long waist and subconsciously glanced at the bottom of the cliff.

Although a little dizzy, but the cliff under the sunshine, endless quiet dust, is really a good scenery, a good place. Thinking that he would be able to meet Xu Jinfei later, Hua Manxi felt that his waist was no longer sore, his legs were not weak, and he could even trot. It's okay when I really live at home, have friends with me, and laugh and laugh together, but at the moment, when my heart beats like a drum, and I only think about Xu Jinfei wholeheartedly, I am nervous and looking forward to it.

Hua Manxi almost fell on the ground, and I don't know where it came from. But she didn't mind that, and ran as fast as she could for a figure in front of the cabin. The figure was handsome and tall, and when he saw her from afar, he smiled softly and happily, and opened his arms to her. Hua Manxi threw herself into someone's arms, and was about to talk about her lovesickness, but she felt that her waist was tight, Xu Jinfei hugged her, on tiptoe, and she was three or four feet away from the place.

Look at that side again, the heat is in full swing, and it has already been opened. An old man's beard and hair were all white, and his body shook too fast, and Hua Manxi couldn't see his face, and he was fighting with the palace master quickly. Back and forth, there is no wind at all. Broken Leaf stood on the side, trying to make a move several times, but there was a little girl wrapped around his legs, he lowered his body, trying to comfort people softly, but the little girl hugged him tightly and did not allow him to pass at all.

In the midst of the fierce fight, the palace master dodged a finger blow on his back, and finally the mask slipped and the whole thing cracked, revealing a frosty face. When Hua Manxi saw it, he couldn't help but be slightly surprised. To be honest, the overall feeling is a bit similar to Wuluan, but Wuluan is the kind of snake-like femininity, but this palace master has a degree where male and female are indistinguishable. It's just that in the past few days of getting along, his voice is low, and he has an Adam's apple, so he didn't let Hua Manxi admit his mistake.

Xu Jinfei took her farther and left the battlefield. At this moment, Hua Manxi could finally say her full of questions, and Xu Jinfei also knew that she was really confused, so she rubbed the tip of her nose very affectionately before saying, "Don't worry, their story will end soon." ”

Sure enough, as Xu Jinfei's words fell, the palace master and the old man put away their swords at the same time. The palace master's face was very bad, not because he was injured in the fight, but because he looked at the girl next to him, and after a long time, he said slowly: "If you don't die, I don't want to entangle with you anymore, Ah Shan is my sister, you should go with me." ”

The old man threw his sword to the ground and suddenly showed a strange smile: "She is not only your sister, but also your wife. My good son, when you left alone, but now you want to bring people back, do you want an heir? ”
