Chapter 296: The Mysterious Man

This sentence was like a thunderclap, and Du Ruo's whole person trembled.

Her heart was beating so hard now that she couldn't stop crying.

As a guard who has undergone rigorous training, she has never cried like this even if the training is hard and tiring, but at this time, no matter what, she can't control her emotions.

Your Majesty......

Your Majesty he......

Du Ruo kept echoing four words in his mind: life is not long.

In her opinion, this is equivalent to Xiao Tingyi having been given an ultimatum, and even Xiao Tingyi's dying appearance has appeared in front of her eyes.

How can she have peace of mind!

It's because she's too bent on going her own way!

Why!

Why did she make such a decision in private in the first place!

"Miss Du......"

Seeing Du Ruo frozen in place, her tears were like bursting the embankment, and the note had been unconsciously turned into powder by her, Chu Xun couldn't help but sigh secretly.

Although this was the first time he and Du Ruo had met, as the Great Protector of the Wind God Temple, he was in charge of all kinds of information.

In addition, Ye Qingli and Du Qianrao are the best friends, so he knew about Du Ruo from the beginning, and he also knew all her information.

Du Ruo himself was Xiao Tingyi's guard, and later, he had a very good relationship with Ye Qingli, and he also knew it.

Therefore, he can understand the sadness and self-blame in Du Ruo's heart now.

"I'm fine."

Du Ruo came back to his senses, wiped the tears from his face, and his voice was muffled.

And Chu Xun comforted her, "Miss Du, don't worry for the time being, if it goes well, in the next two days, we will definitely get the news of returning from the palace." ”

As long as they can get a response, they can find a way to save them right away!

When the rescuer came, Du Ruo could immediately return to Daqian with Ye Qingli.

Du Ruo nodded lowly.

Although she knew that Chu Xun had good intentions, now, she couldn't listen to a single word.

But they didn't know that at this moment, Xiao Tingyi, Granny Wan, and Liu Feng were on their way to Qin State.

The news that was deliberately spread, although it was just to make Qin Yufeng relax his vigilance, but for Du Ruo, it was a big blow.

"Xiao Gongzi, why are we staying here?"

In order to make things easier, Granny Wan began to call Xiao Tingyi 'Xiao Gongzi', but after a day and a half of driving, Granny Wan found something strange.

It stands to reason that Xiao Tingyi is anxious now, and he should be eager to stop for a moment, hoping that he will grow a pair of wings and fly directly to the Qin State and fly in front of Ye Qingli.

But along the way, he would always stop unexpectedly and rest for a while.

Or a deserted forest, or a village in the mountains, of course, there are also lively small towns, but Xiao Tingyi's behavior is a little strange, every time he stops, he has to disappear for a while.

Granny Wan didn't know why he was doing this, but out of concern, she still asked.

"We need to wait for someone."

Xiao Tingyi didn't hide it, and said it directly, "However, this person has a special identity, so he is very cautious in his movements, and he just leaves a mark near the road we walked, and if he gets any news, he will also tell us." ”

"What kind of person, so mysterious?"

Granny Wan was a little surprised.

But Xiao Tingyi shook his head, "I'm sorry, I can't reveal his identity, otherwise, he will show up directly and walk with us." ”

"That's right."

Granny Wan is also a person who has experienced the ups and downs of the world, and when she saw that Xiao Tingyi refused to reveal it, she didn't ask any more, just nodded and said, "That's ...... What's new? ”

Just now, Xiao Tingyi disappeared for a while.

And this time, Xiao Tingyi said happily, "Yes." ”

As he spoke, he took out a small paper roll covered with soil, handed it to Granny Wan, and said, "Ah Li is still alive." ”

And when he said this, Xiao Tingyi's tone was very flat, as if he had always believed in his heart from beginning to end that Ye Qingli would definitely be fine.

It is a belief called love.

"Really?"

Granny Wan was suddenly pleasantly surprised, and hurriedly took the note, but saw that only one sentence was written on it: Xingyao is as usual.

Seeing Granny Wan's expression, she was a little stunned, so Liu Feng also came up to take a look, but looking at these four words, everyone knew each of them and could understand the meaning, but she didn't know how to connect with Ye Qingli.

So, Liu Feng's dark and quiet eyes looked at Xiao Tingyi again.

But the meaning of these four words is only understood by Xiao Tingyi himself, and no one can understand it, and it is not easy to explain at all.

"It's a code name, which means safety."

Xiao Tingyi thought about it, and could only explain it like this.

And Granny Wan didn't think much about it, so she nodded, and said with some relief, "It's good to be alive, it's good to be alive!" ”

Liu Feng still didn't speak, just stared at the four words on the paper again, without any expression, as if he wanted to show the flowers, and no one knew what he was thinking.

"Then let's continue on our way, in two days, it is estimated that we will be able to reach the boundary of the Qin State."

Xiao Tingyi stood up, patted the horse's back, and took the initiative to jump into the carriage again.

In fact, in order to hide his identity, he has already disguised himself.

Now, no matter who looks at him, he is just a tall coachman, and Granny Wan is a kind old lady, and Liu Feng is the little son of a rich and noble family.

A group of three people has always come over like this.

The dignified king of a country is disguised as a coachman, and he always nods to people and says good things when he walks through the city gates, town entrances and other places.

Xiao Tingyi like this, Ye Qingli has never seen it.

But it was for Ye Qingli that he was willing to do so.

Although Granny Wan felt a little unaccustomed to it in her heart, Xiao Tingyi didn't care, as long as she could reach the Qin Kingdom smoothly, it didn't matter what she pretended to be.

The only thought in his heart now is to rescue Ye Qingli quickly.

He knew that Ye Qingli must be waiting for him.

"Let's go!"

Granny Wan also nodded, and with the support of Liu Feng, she got into the carriage and continued to play her old lady.

"I'm leaving."

Xiao Tingyi reminded him, then drove the horse to run, and said, "It's getting late, there is a small town ahead, let's rest for the night and set off tomorrow morning." ”

"It's good that Xiao Gongzi decides, we listen to you."

In this matter, Granny Wan didn't say much at all.

Although she knew in her heart that Xiao Tingyi took care of her age and body to arrange the rest time a little longer, she and Liu Feng were here to help, and Xiao Tingyi was the leader of the whole thing.

Xiao Tingyi didn't answer again, just let the horse run faster.

Along the way, they never stopped.

It was not until near evening that they finally reached the gate of the small city, and the soldiers who had been on duty for a day seemed to be a little tired, and they seemed a little careless when checking the crowd in and out.

"What for?"

The soldier casually carried his saber and kicked the wheel of the car with one foot, looking like an uncle.

And Xiao Tingyi showed a bright smile as always, and said, "Official, in the car are our old lady and little son, the family is defeated, we are left, only a little thin bottom is left, it is not easy to live in the city, and we are ready to go back to the countryside." ”

As he spoke, he took out a small piece of silver from his arms, stuffed it into the soldier's hand, and said, "The officials are tired after a busy day, this money, please drink a cup of tea to relieve fatigue!" ”

At the same time, Granny Wan lifted the curtain of the car, smiled at the soldier and nodded, and just showed herself and Liu Feng to them.

The soldier's expression suddenly smiled, weighed the piece of silver in the palm of his hand, and waved his hand, "The old lady looks in good spirits, let's go!" ”

"Thank you, sir!"

Xiao Tingyi thanked him again, and happily drove into the city gate.

However, after just walking out of the city gate, Xiao Tingyi's expression returned to calm, as if the enthusiastic appearance just now was not what he showed at all.

He led the horse so quietly, walking on the road, passing through the still lively crowd, full of loneliness.

Granny Wan lifted the curtain of the car, glanced at it quietly, shook her head and sighed.

Although he has been very calm, and even learned the news that Ye Qingli is safe now, he is still worried in his heart, but he refuses to say it.

After walking for a while, they chose a small inn that was neither good nor bad, which was very much in line with the previous statement.

And the inn's little second child saw that Granny Wan and Liufeng were dressed well, so they were particularly enthusiastic.

"We want an upper room."

Granny Wan said with a smile.

"Old lady, please!"

Xiao Er immediately led the way enthusiastically, and while going upstairs, he said, "It's just right, there is still space above the Tianzi number today, old lady, you are here by coincidence!" ”

"Look at your kind eyes, don't be the reincarnation of a Bodhisattva!"

When Granny Wan heard this, she couldn't laugh or cry, but she still said, "If you have to work, you can bring us some more food, take a little wine, and dispel our fatigue." ”

"Come on, old lady!"

After Xiao Er led them to the door, he hurriedly walked down again, and did not forget to turn around and add, "Old lady, wait a minute, it will be fine immediately!" ”

Granny Wan smiled and nodded, "Okay." ”

Immediately, the three of them entered the room and habitually looked at and checked it.

Very simple and clean furnishings, the room is very spacious.

Originally, Xiao Tingyi and the others were all martial arts practitioners, and in this case, no matter whether the bed was soft or not, they would not sleep very well, so they didn't really care about the environment.

'Knock knock knock' –

Xiao Er knocked on the door outside, "Old lady, you have brought all the food and wine you wanted." ”

"Come in."

Granny Wan sat at the table, looked at Xiao Er lovingly, and said, "I'm sorry for you, add us another quilt, the coachman will sleep in the car at night, and he won't be frozen, I will pay according to the price." ”

"No problem, old lady!"

Xiao Er agreed to come down, and at the same time praised him flatteringly, "Old lady, aren't you a bodhisattva, you are so good to the coachman!" ”

And Granny Wan just smiled.

Xiao Er ushered in the send-off, and knew that he didn't want to talk to him anymore, so he made a gesture with interest, "Old lady, you eat first, and the quilt will come soon!" ”

"Okay."

Granny Wan said, and then said to Xiao Tingyi, "Quick, give this little brother some reward, you can't work in vain." ”

Xiao Tingyi took out a little bit of broken silver from his waist and put it in Xiao Er's hand.
