The cave was a mess right now, with burned firewood, used straw mats, and even a few broken weapons.

Something had broken a corner of the cave, and stones were scattered all over the place, and fragments of cloth were scattered among them.

Chu Nian's heart moved, she turned her head and silently looked at Qingyi and Wu Liang, the only ones who could act as strong laborers at the moment, and the two had no choice but to step forward and pick up the stones with their bare hands.

A weak figure gradually appeared under the pile of stones, looking at the dress, it was a guard of the imperial daughter of Western Chu.

Chu Nian twisted his brows and stepped forward, and the guard seemed to have a breath left.

"Healer-sama." Chu Nian rolled his eyes, and saw the medical god take a serious step forward, and immediately turned out his medicine box.

Seeing this, Ah Wu also hurriedly stepped forward to help, and the master and apprentice were busy around the guard for a while, only to see that the princess's guard who was placed on the straw mat gradually woke up.

She looked at the people around her blankly, and finally her eyes fell on Chu Nian, who was surrounded by everyone in the center, Chu Nian twisted her brows slightly, bent over, and looked at the woman in front of her with a serious face.

"I'm the county lord of Daliang Wushuang, it's too late to save the car, where is your princess now?"

The guard reflected for a while, and hurriedly braced up to get up, but was stopped by the aunt on the side, "You have multiple fatal wounds on your body, and now you can save your life, don't move around." ”

Seeing this, the guard had no choice but to lie on the straw mat honestly, her eyes seemed to be blood-red, probably because she had been buried under the stone for too long, and her voice was a little hoarse, "My subordinates meet the Wushuang County Lord." ”

"What are you doing now, what happened before we came?"

The guard gradually choked a little, she raised her hand weakly and rubbed her eyes, and then whispered: "After Mu Niangzi disappeared, we originally planned to wait for reinforcements from the county lord here, who would have thought, that Qinghe people actually found here, originally if there were only illusionists, we were all wearing ice and water clothes, but who would have thought, there were martial arts masters among them." ”

"The skills of those martial arts masters are all similar to the strength of the strongest guards among us, and with a group of illusionists who interfere from the side, we will soon be defeated."

"I was smashed into the pile of stones by a martial arts master, my body couldn't move, and I just watched the princess being captured, and I was taken away with my sisters."

When these words fell, Chu Nian's face suddenly sank, and the medicine king on the side also exclaimed in a low voice, "The princess of Western Chu was taken away by Qinghe's people?" ”

Several people present looked at each other, but Ah Wan looked at Chu Nian with a worried look on her face, "Will the people of Western Chu blame us for coming too late?" ”

Chu Nian took a deep breath, "The current situation is already very serious, and now that Xichu Yueling has been captured by the Qinghe people, they don't dare to do anything to Xichu Yueling, they are only afraid of ......"

Everyone looked at Chu Nian's gloomy face and fell silent, and Wu Liang's eyes on the side flashed slightly, "Do you want to send some news to Xi Chu quickly?" ”

Chu Nian nodded slowly, and turned his eyes to look outside the cave, "Dark Three." ”

When these words fell, the dark three suddenly landed, Chu Nian thought for a while, and asked the accompanying aunt for a pen, ink, paper, and inkstone, and this party took the pen and wrote a letter and handed it to the waiting dark three, "Be sure to hand it over to the Empress of Western Chu in person." ”

Hearing this, the dark three bottoms responded, turned around, and disappeared in place.

And Qing Yi on the side looked puzzled, "Why are you still sending a letter to Xichu this time?" Could it be an apology? Isn't it more important to find Xi Chu Yue Ling now than to apologize to Xi Chu? ”

Chu Nian raised his eyes slightly and glanced at him,

Shook his head slightly, "That's not the case, it is necessary to apologize, but it is even more important to stabilize Xi Chu, so that they don't cut off the supply of ice water and heavenly clothes." ”

"They didn't dare to move Xichu Yueling, for fear of completely forcing Xichu, after all, the original Qinghe branch in Xichu had been almost cleared when the ice water Tianyi was developed, and now Qinghe can't resist Xichu, so among us, the people in Qinghe are the most afraid should be Xichu."

Chu Nian paused, and his eyes swept over the princess's guards with worried faces, "If Xi Chu is injured and Xi Chu is forced to be anxious, Xi Chu will really use the strength of the whole country to fight against Qinghe, and Qinghe will only be afraid that he will not be able to eat and walk around." ”

"That Qinghe catches the ...... of Western Chu Yueling"

"It's for the sake of threats." Chu Nian raised his eyes and looked fixedly at the thoughtful imperial maiden guard on the ground, "It is to threaten Western Chu with the life of the eldest princess of Western Chu and completely destroy all the ice water heavenly clothes that we can use to fight against Qinghe." ”

Chu Nian took a deep breath, "The Ice Water Heavenly Clothes are the only power we can use to fight against Qinghe, if there is no Ice Water Heavenly Clothes, then for these ordinary soldiers in our Three Kingdoms, asking them to face that group of illusionists is equivalent to sending them to death." ”

The face of the imperial maiden's personal guard obviously sank, and he saw Chu Nian turn his eyes to look at everyone, "Let's rest here for a few days first, and when the news comes back from the Western Chu Palace, we will set off immediately, and go to rescue Western Chu Yueling and Mu Qing first." ”

Of course Chu Nian is in a hurry, these two people are her best friends, if something happens to one of them, I'm afraid it will be enough for Chu Nian to regret it for the rest of her life.

She had already lost so much that she could not afford to lose any more.

By the end of the night, everyone had already been stationed in this messy cave, Chu Nian was sitting at the entrance of the cave, and the cold moonlight fell on her face through the branches, and there was a strange light in her watery eyes.

Suddenly, there was a sound of footsteps behind him that sounded very weak, Chu Nian didn't look back, his red lips opened lightly, "What, everyone is asleep, but you are going to keep vigil with me?" ”

"County Lord." The guard arched his hand towards Chu Nian, and when he looked up, he showed hesitation.

This is convenient to see Chu Nian turned his head slightly, and said with a light smile: "Your body is weak, you can't stand all the time, come and sit, if there is anything, you can just say it." ”

The guard hesitated for a moment, and then limped forward a few steps and sat down on a shorter stone not far from Chu Nian.

This side raised his eyes, and the worry on his face could no longer be concealed, "County Lord, my Royal Highness...... I cherish the friendship with you, it is not between countries, only between you. ”

Chu Nian's eyes flashed slightly, and he didn't speak, the guard seemed to be careful about his tone, and after a while, he continued to speak: "If something happens to His Royal Highness this time......

"She's going to be fine." Chu Nian rolled his eyes, and a determined light flashed in his eyes, "I won't let anyone I care about have an accident again." ”

When these words fell, the guard's face was stunned for a moment, and then her eyes turned red, and then she hurriedly lowered her head, as if she was afraid that Chu Nian would notice the moisture in her eyes.

I heard Chu Nian say softly, "What's your name?" ”

The guard thought for a while, "My name is Ying Rou." ”

"Ying Rou should be gentle, your mother, should be a very gentle person, right?"

Ying Rou nodded, there seemed to be a suspicious flush on her face, Chu Nian smiled, "You are also a very gentle person." ”

After Chu Nian's praise, Ying Rou's face seemed to be a little more ruddy, she lowered her head and didn't speak, then she saw Chu Nian looking up at the sky again, her eyes flickering

Inexplicable light.

"When it's over, you must be reunited with your family."

Ying Rou raised her eyes and saw the moonlight falling on the plain white outline, which looked extraordinarily gentle.

Seeing Chu Nian's slightly sideways eyes, he said with a light smile: "You are also a wounded now, you should go back to repair well, and in a few days, I will have to rely on you to rescue your Highness." ”

Hearing this, Ying Rou suddenly nodded with a firm face, the person who was still sentimental was extremely serious at the moment, she nodded solemnly, and said in a shallow voice: "Then it will bother the county lord." ”

Chu Nian smiled, saw Ying Rou get up, went back to the cave, and then, fell into silence again.

The faint candle flame flickering from the cave was reflected on Chu Nian's back, Chu Nian turned his head and continued to look at the moon in the sky with a lonely face.

A breeze blew, and Chu Nian's red lips suddenly opened, "Come out, you're all asleep, how long are you going to feed the mosquitoes there?" ”

As the words fell, a figure emerged from the grass, shrouded in a pitch-black cloak, with only a pair of silver eyes exposed, as if the moonlight had shone into his eyes, and he would not leave.

With a hoarse chuckle, Dark Rin sat beside Chu Nian unceremoniously, looking at the moon in the sky with Chu Nian.

"The county lord laughed, it's just a phantom, if the mosquito can suck a little branch and leaf on me, it can only be the dew in the bamboo."

Chu Nian looked at the dark Rin beside her slightly, she didn't remember how long it had been since they had been in close contact like this, but she didn't expect that this time it was still the dark Rin phantom clone.

As if sensing Chu Nian's gaze, Fang Yan Yan spoke: "Why, hasn't the county lord seen me?" ”

Chu Nian took a deep breath, "It's not that I haven't seen it, it's that I haven't seen it for a long time." ”

Dark Rin chuckled.

"The county lord laughed again, didn't we just meet in the illusion the day before yesterday? Could it be that the county lord's memory is already so bad now? ”

Chu Nian shook her head, deciding not to continue to dwell on this, she took a deep breath, and said lightly: "You came today to tell me the whereabouts of Xi Chu Yueling and Mu Qing?" ”

Dark Rin looked sideways slightly, and there seemed to be a little meaning in his eyes, "You said it, you and I haven't seen each other for so long, do you have to talk about business as soon as we meet?" ”

Chu Nian twisted his brows, and saw that Dark Rin hurriedly spoke, "Teasing you." ”

"I naturally know the whereabouts of Xichu Yueling."

Chu Nian suddenly turned his eyes, and his eyes flashed slightly to look at Dark Rin, "Where is it?" ”

"Of course, it's at Qinghe headquarters, under the nose of Qinghezun." As if sensing Chu Nian's slightly thoughtful gaze, Dark Rin hurriedly said: "If the county lord wants to rely on me to rescue the princess of Western Chu, persuade the county lord to die of this heart, after all, it is really too wasteful to kill chickens with a knife." ”

"And now Qinghe Venerable has doubts about me, if I show my feet at this moment, then all our previous preparations will be wasted."

Seeing the slightly sarcastic smile on the corner of Dark Rin's mouth, Chu Nian had no choice but to take a deep breath, "Then you have to tell me where Mu Qing is, right?" ”

"Mu Qing?" The dark face seemed to be pale for a moment, "I don't know Mu Qing's location very well, I also received news before that Mu Qing was arrested by Qinghe's people, but as for Mu Qing's arrest at Qinghe headquarters, I didn't receive such news." ”

"That means ......"

"I can't find out the news, and there is only ...... in the Qinghe"
