Chapter 3: Inexplicable Reunion
"I don't care who they are, in short, I believe in my father's character, and I must seek justice for my father." An Wanqing looked at Nangong Qi with tears in her eyes, her eyes were firm, and she secretly swore.
"The Imperial Jin Army is not easy to deal with, for the sake of safety, let's leave here first, so as not to be discovered by them, and the consequences are unimaginable." Nangong Qi kindly reminded.
Suffering the loss of a loved one, An Wan's heart was like a knife, and under the only remaining reason, she finally nodded in cooperation.
Nangong Qi pulled An Wanqing through the grass, and after a while, the two of them stayed away from the inn and hid in the dense woods.
An Wanqing gasped for a hurry, settled down, seemed to have thought of something, raised her head suddenly and glared at Nangong Qi, and said vigilantly: "Who are you?" Why follow me? ”
Nangong Qi was speechless for a while, "Please, when did the master follow you?" ”
An Wanqing calmed down, a trace of ruthlessness flashed in her eyes, and without saying a word, she put the dagger on Nangong Qi's neck at once, "You still dare to quibble, you clearly drove your horse to the fork in the road, why did you appear here?" ”
"Hey......" Nangong Qi took a step back, frowned and said, "You wild girl has no conscience, but the master saved you just now." ”
Hearing this, An Wanqing was stunned for a moment, becoming more and more annoyed, and the dagger was further forced towards Nangong Qi, "I'm wearing men's clothes, if you didn't follow me, how would you know that I was a woman!" ”
"In the afternoon in the ruined temple, when you were changing your clothes, I saw this blue shirt in your baggage. At that moment, I knew that you were going to dress up as a man. Nangong Qi said.
"Why are you here?" An Wanqing was unmoved and asked again.
"You put the dagger down first, and you have something to say." Nangong Qi lowered his eyes and glanced at the dagger on his neck, and grinned bitterly.
Although he couldn't figure out the details of the person who came, considering that he had no malicious intent in rescuing him just now, An Wanqing slowly put down the dagger and looked at Nangong Qi intently, waiting for his explanation.
"You may not believe it." Nangong Qi frowned and shrugged his shoulders, shook his head slightly, and sighed: "Even I don't believe ...... myself."
An Wanqing still looked at him intently, patiently waiting for his next step.
"The master really drove a horse to the fork in the road, and he had already stayed in a suburban inn, but he never thought that he would sleep and wake up and appear here inexplicably."
"Dishonest!" An Wanqing's face was slightly angry, and she was about to press the dagger against his neck again.
"Hey, you're here again!" Nangong Qi couldn't cry or laugh, and grinned: "I'll just say it, you won't believe it." ”
An Wanqing glared at him, naturally not believing half a word.
This reason is not far-fetched at all, it is clearly nonsense, and the ghost will believe it.
Nangong Qi stretched out his hand and pointed not far away, grinning: "The master didn't lie to you, look, the master's horse is tied to the side." ”
An Wanqing looked in the direction pointed by Nangong Qi, and under the bright moonlight, a horse was tied to a tree trunk and wagged its tail, as if responding to its master.
Glancing at the horse, An Wanqing turned her head again and glared at Nangong Qi, "What does this mean?" It only means that you came here on horseback. ”
Nangong Qi smiled bitterly at An Wanqing's hippie smile, and carefully removed the dagger from his neck, "Master wake up, it's here." Seeing that there was an inn not far away, I wanted to go over and stay overnight, but I saw you in the grass, so I had to tie up my horse and hide to see what was going on. ”
"And then?"
"Master really didn't lie." Nangong Qi was helpless for a while, "Then I saw clearly that the person guarding outside the inn was the Imperial Jin Army, and seeing that you rushed up without your life, the master took pity on the fragrance and jade, so he had to show up and stop you." ”
"It's too far-fetched reason, I'm afraid it's half-truth."
"If you don't believe it, it's the truth anyway." Nangong Qi clasped his hands in front of his chest and tilted his head to gamble.
An Wanqing glanced at Nangong Qi, and saw that he looked like he was not afraid of the shadow, and he didn't want to be entangled with him, after all, no matter what, if he hadn't stopped him just now, I was afraid that he would really rush up.
"Thank you." An Wanqing bowed her head and said.
"Come on, you still don't believe it anyway. To be honest, it was a pure coincidence to save you. Nangong Qi said.
An Wanqing bowed her head and was silent.
"As the saying goes, if you are destined to meet thousands of miles away, the lord inexplicably appeared here to save you, does this mean that the lord is destined for you." Nangong Qi looked at An Wanqing and quipped.
An Wanqing glanced at him angrily, naturally she was not in the mood to joke with him, so she found a relatively clean place and sat down, her arms were hugged on her knees, and her face was sad, still not relieving herself from the shadow of her father's departure.
Seeing this, Nangong Qi didn't want to joke anymore, so he sat next to her with interest.
The two of them were silent, and the dense woods returned to their original silence.
"You just called the man in the prisoner's car daddy?" After a moment of silence, Nangong Qi took the lead in breaking the silence of the night.
An Wanqing was stunned for a moment, unable to figure out the identity of the other party, vaguely worried, and turned her head to look at him vigilantly. I secretly regretted that I had exposed my identity in a hurry just now. At present, he is the family of a fugitive rebel in the mouth of the Yujin Army.
Looking at those crystal clear eyes, Nangong Qi was stunned for a moment, and then continued: "You don't have to worry, I just asked casually, if I was not good for you, I wouldn't stop you just now." ”
An Wanqing nodded slightly.
"This is Yicheng, far away from Kyoto, do you know how your father offended the Imperial Jin Army?" Nangong Qi looked at An Wanqing curiously.
An Wanqing shook her head slightly.
"The man in the python robe just now, did you see him?" Nangong Qi asked again.
An Wanqing still shook her head, with hatred in her heart, gritted her teeth and swore: "I have only seen the back, even if he turns to ashes, I will recognize the back." Yicheng is far away from Kyoto, and although I don't know who the overseer of the Imperial Jin Army in the python robe is, even if he dies, I must kill him with my own hands. ”
"He's not easy to deal with." Nangong Qi sighed lightly.
An Wanqing was stunned for a moment, turned her head and looked at Nangong Qi strangely, "Do you know him?" ”
Nangong Qi was noncommittal.
"You're from the capital?" An Wanqing looked at Nangong Qi and analyzed: "The fork in the road is a small road leading to the capital, and you recognize the man in the python robe, so he is naturally a person from the capital." ”
"Indeed." Nangong Qi did not deny it.
An Wanqing glanced at Nangong Qi's clothes, and her eyes were fixed on the red spike jade flute on his waist, "The son is well-dressed, and the things he decorates are all of the highest quality, naturally he is either rich or expensive, and he is hostile to the Yujin Army in his spoken language, hasn't he been provoked by the Yujin Army?" ”
"In the capital, the Imperial Jin Army is very majestic, I heard that anyone who enters the Imperial Jin Army's edict prison, can shed their skin without dying, and most of the people who fall into the hands of the Imperial Jin Army are tortured to death. Who does not hate such a person who is raised in a terrified place? Nangong Qi asked rhetorically.
