On the night of June 18, the third day after Liu Ruotian and the others went to the Guogong Mansion to inquire about the news, a man in a night suit quietly sneaked into the General's Mansion and projected a dart with a note on the door of Li Yuqi's room.

The man told Li Yuqi on the note that he would go alone to meet him in a small forest in the northwest outside Chang'an City at the beginning of the morning tomorrow night, saying that he had something important to tell him.

Because of the experience of the previous time, Li Yuqi did not dare to act rashly this time. But because of the importance of the matter, after careful consideration, he decided to go and accept the appointment. In order to prevent accidents, Li Yuqi also specially called Liu Ruotian to secretly protect him.

That night, Li Yuqi came to the grove alone, but he didn't see the person who left the letter to answer the appointment.

Li Yuqi walked alone in this dark wood, and his heart couldn't help but feel a little hairy. Although he very much wanted to call Liu Ruotian, who was hiding in the shadows, out to be his companion, he knew that he could never do this, so he had no choice but to walk into the woods.

On a summer night, cicadas chirp in the grove, and birds fly out from time to time between the branches, creating an eerie and terrifying atmosphere around them.

Li Yuqi walked forward cautiously, and the dead leaves that he stepped on under his feet made a cracking sound from time to time, which couldn't help but make people feel timid.

Underneath the layers of dead branches and leaves, there are still many dead branches that have been piled up for a long time, and as long as someone steps on them, there will be a crisp sound, which makes people feel even more creepy and shudder.

I saw Li Yuqi constantly wiping the sweat on his forehead, and there was a hint of retreat in his heart. It wasn't long before he stopped under a large tree, leaning against his thick trunk, unwilling to go any further.

At this time, Liu Ruotian was sitting on the branch of a big tree next to him, watching his every move.

I saw Liu Ruotian sitting cross-legged on a thick branch, swaying back and forth with a branch in his hand, and a young branch in his mouth kept moving up and down, looking very leisurely.

Liu Ruotian looked at Li Yuqi in the distance and said to himself: "Big brother, big brother, don't hold on if you are so small, I think that person is deliberately playing tricks on you." ”

At this time, Li Yuqi accidentally stepped on a dead branch, and the sound of the branch breaking scared him enough.

When Liu Ruotian saw Li Yuqi like this, he wanted to get down from the tree immediately and go back with Li Yuqi.

Unexpectedly, Liu Ruotian was just about to act, but suddenly saw a black shadow flashing in the distance, and then this black shadow came to Li Yuqi, it turned out that the person who made the appointment had arrived.

I saw that this person was dressed in black and covered his face with a black cloth, his voice was old and his hair was gray, and he seemed to be not young.

He came to Li Yuqi very angrily, and without saying a word, he was angry and scolded him bloody.

Listening to the masked man's tone, he seemed to have some kind of great connection with the Li family, and he was also very angry at the Li family's sisters' refusal to avenge their parents. It seems that this person has an extraordinary relationship with his parents, otherwise he would not be so angry.

The masked man of unknown origin also told Li Yuqi that the Li family's ancestral treasure Ying Butterfly Sword was about to fall into the hands of the gangsters, and the two sisters and brothers must immediately go to the ancient mansion in Huazhou together to stop the gangsters' conspiracy. And he also assured Li Yuqi that he would definitely try to rescue Li Shuqi, who was trapped in the Guogong Mansion.

After the masked man left, Liu Ruotian immediately asked Li Yuqi about the situation, not wanting Li Yuqi at this time to be like a different person, so he had to go to Huazhou.

Liu Ruotian saw that there was no room for turning back in this matter, so he had no choice but to follow Li Yuqi's wishes. And Liu Ruotian himself decided to help him and go with him.

In addition, the masked man also told Li Yuqi to prepare a carriage and wait outside the west gate of Chang'an City in the early morning of the day after tomorrow. After Li Shuqi arrived, he set off immediately.

The next morning, while Liu Ruotian was going to deal with these things, Li Yuqi ignored Liu Ruotian's advice and came to Guo Nianyao's pharmacy alone to return all the medical fees owed that day, but unexpectedly, all this was seen by Shi Yongning.

It turned out that Jiang Xinghe had already arranged people around the General's Mansion to closely monitor him, and everyone's every move here was under Jiang Xinghe's control.

And when Guo Nianyao learned the news that Li Yuqi might not be able to come for a follow-up for a long time, she grabbed some medicine for Li Yuqi and asked him to take it on time to stabilize his condition.

Soon after Li Yuqi got the medicine, he immediately walked in the direction of the General's Mansion. Unexpectedly, as soon as he walked to the door, he was seen by Liu Ruotian, so Liu Ruotian criticized Li Yuqi.

In Liu Ruotian's opinion, he may startle the snake by doing this, but Li Yuqi feels that it is not a big deal.

Just as Li Yuqi and Liu Ruotian were talking, they didn't expect Mei Jiaxing to suddenly jump out from behind the stone lion.

As soon as he heard that the two of them were going far away, he had to follow them.

Liu Ruotian knew Mei Jiaxing's personality traits, and for fear that things would cause trouble, Liu Ruotian had no choice but to agree to him.

At this point, Liu Ruotian simply asked Mei Jiaxing to tell Mei Yuchen to see if she was willing to go with her, and the reason why Liu Ruotian did this was because of his own reasoning.

When Mei Jiaxing heard this, he thought that this was a once-in-a-lifetime good thing, so he immediately ran home to inform Mei Yuchen of the incident.

"Sister! Sister! Sister! My brother-in-law, he ......" Mei Jiaxing ran to Mei Yuchen's residence in one breath, and was a little out of breath from exhaustion.

At this time, Mei Yuchen was sewing clothes by the bedside, and when she saw Mei Jiaxing running in such a hurry, she asked nervously: "Your brother-in-law, he-Brother Ruotian, what's wrong with him?" ”

Mei Yuchen almost continued Mei Jiaxing's words, thanks to her clever brain and timely change of words, which reversed the embarrassing situation.

"Hehe, you also admit that he is my brother-in-law, right?" When Mei Jiaxing said this, Mei Yuchen's cheeks suddenly turned red.

Mei Yuchen asked anxiously: "Don't be poor, let's talk quickly, what's going on?" ”

Mei Jiaxing said unhurriedly: "My brother-in-law and Brother Yuqi will go out tomorrow, and they will probably come back after a long time. My brother-in-law asked me to come and ask you if you would like to go with you. ”

When Mei Yuchen heard it, it was quite fresh. Liu Ruotian usually doesn't have time to hide from himself, but this time he will take the initiative to make a request, it's really not easy.

Mei Yuchen thought to herself, it's really good, I finally have the opportunity to be alone with Brother Ruotian.

Mei Yuchen was thinking about it here, and Mei Jiaxing said again: "I heard my brother-in-law say that there seems to be a woman who is going with us on this trip, which makes it mysterious." Actually, I don't know the specifics of this. Forget it, let's talk about it then. ”

Although Mei Yuchen wanted to go very much, he was embarrassed to say it clearly, and always pretended to shirk: "We? Are you going too? It's someone else's business, so it's a little inappropriate for us to go, right? ”

"Oops! What's appropriate or inappropriate, you're my brother-in-law's fiancée! It's right, so you don't have to worry about that. Sister, don't miss the opportunity! Besides, you think, if you can go with us, you and my brother-in-law will always have a time to be alone on the way, and you will be able to ...... Yes? Right? ”

"you! What do you think? No business all day! You just need to do your part, and you don't need to ask about the rest. ”

"Yo Yo Yo! My sister is shy, and my sister is blushing! - Huh? I didn't expect my sister to make clothes! No need to ask, it must have been made for my brother-in-law, right? Alas, my brother-in-law has a good life, I have been with you for so many years, and I have never seen you make clothes for my younger brother! After Mei Jiaxing saw the clothes that Mei Yuchen was sewing in his hand, he couldn't help but play a poor mouth.

After hearing this, Mei Yuchen pretended to be angry and said, "If you don't leave quickly, be careful that I hit you!" ”

Seeing this, Mei Jiaxing begged: "Don't get excited, you have something to say." Calm down, calm down, be sure to be calm! I'll go now, see you later! ”

After saying that, Mei Jiaxing left Mei Yuchen's room, and he was still smiling when he left, because he knew that Mei Yuchen would never be really angry because of this little thing. After all, their sister and brother have lived together under the same roof for so many years, and they still know each other very well about their temperaments.

On the eve of the incident, the masked man successfully rescued Li Shuqi from the Guogong Mansion.

But what is strange is that the process of saving people seems to be a little too smooth, and Jiang Xinghe doesn't take it seriously at all.

On the other hand, Liu Ruotian and the others can be said to be eight immortals who crossed the sea to show their magical powers, and tried all kinds of ways to finally sneak out of the mansion smoothly.

Under the cover of night, everyone quietly drove to the west gate and waited for the masked man to arrive.

When he was young, the masked man really appeared on time, and then handed Li Shuqi to them, and then disappeared without a trace.

At this moment, everyone realized that this matter was not as simple as they imagined, but now they seemed to have no way out.

By the time the parents saw the letters left by their children, they had already gone away. Although they quickly sent people around to find the whereabouts of everyone after discovering the letter, because Liu Ruotian and the others did not leave any valuable clues, these people could only look around aimlessly like a swarm of headless flies. It's a pity that after some exploration, no substantial progress has been made, but each of them has not given up. After all, this is not a trivial matter.

In this way, five young people with very different personalities embark on a fantasy journey full of hardships and unknowns.

I don't know how many murderous intentions are hidden behind this infinite scenery, and I don't know how many people will worry about their crazy actions. But this can't be blamed entirely on them, after all, they are still young, and their rebellious and curious hearts still exist, so they are inevitably too naïve in considering and dealing with some things.

I just want to say that it is a blessing or a curse, and it is a disaster that cannot be avoided, maybe all this is providence.
