A horse-drawn carriage sped past on the official road, and the shade of the trees on the side of the road kept flying backwards. The shadow and Yan Zhu sat side by side in the driver's seat, the shadow kept waving the horsewhip, and the sound of "popping" rang on Yan Hong's heart in the carriage, and the little faces of the younger brothers and sisters sitting next to her were full of excitement, and from time to time they raised their eyes to peek at Ethan and Xi Ning, who were snuggling together and pretending to sleep. Xi Ning wanted to give up most of the space to the three of them, but the three of them also snuggled up to each other as much as possible to make more space for the extremely handsome two in front of them.

"Master, I'm afraid I won't be able to catch up with the next town before dark." The voice of the shadow came in, and the two children beside Yan Hong were startled when they heard the sound, Xi Ning looked at her with a smile and nodded, and said to the shadow outside the carriage: "You continue to hurry, and find a place to rest by the stream after dark." ”

The shadow of "driving" shouted, the horsewhip "snapped" and fell, and the four horses rushed forward.

This night, accompanied by the sound of gurgling water and the crackling of bonfires, Xi Ning and Ethan sat on a big rock, holding each other's hands and chatting all night.

The next day, he ran all the way through Lingyang Town, did not stop, and continued to rush to the next city.

Hurrying day and night, Xi Ning seems to have forgotten his tiredness, and the closer he gets to the capital, the more he misses Qianao and Little Fox, Xiaojun and the children.

In a dimly lit secret room, a man sits on his knees, his fingers like lotus flowers on his knees, the oil lamp on the wooden table burns quietly, and a wisp of black smoke slowly rises and disappears into the darkness.

At this time, there was a knock on the stone door, and the "buckle buckle" was three long and one short.

The man opened his eyes, quickly got up, grabbed a mask and put it on. This person was the masked man who appeared on the upper floor of the ghost town, and his tall and thin figure put on a white coat and opened the door and left.

"Got news?" The masked man hides in the dark. There was a man standing in the courtyard in front of him. Illusory shadows kept flashing. makes people can't see this person's face clearly, and only feels that this person's height and stout figure are not like the men of Tianfeng Kingdom.

"Yes, the people of Swallow Skeleton have inquired about their whereabouts in Weiyang City."

"Tell the ghost to go, if he misses again this time, the deity will invite him to come to Calvary City." The cold stinging of the masked man's pores stabbed the black shadow man, and the cold penetrated the bones.

"Yes! The subordinates will do it. The shadow man swooped and disappeared in place. The masked man slowly stepped out of the shadows, and the night was just right, shining on his white robe as if he was in a silver world. It's so soft and beautiful. With a wave of his sleeves, he turned back to the room, sat down at the wooden table, took out a crescent-like dagger, and "clicked" to remove the burnt wick from the candle flame. He slowly took off his mask, and the man under the lamp turned out to be Wei Linyou.

"It's time, I didn't expect you to die so big, and you can leave alive after entering Death Valley. Then it's no wonder that the deity is going to be determined. ”

At this time, Wei Linyou had the weakness in the prison in the past, and the gloom on his face completely replaced the kindness of that day. Xi Ning would never have thought that it would be a stupid thing to let him go that day. In the future, she lost her beloved, and then she understood what regret is.

Xi Ning and the others finally arrived at Yulong City. Here is another ** day away from the capital. There is only the last section left in the past few months, and Xi Ning is like an arrow, rushing day and night.

Yulong City is bordered by Huaxi City in the southwest, and it is also a necessary place for caravans, and the prosperity is no less than that of Huaxi City. Of course, Ethan's business line has also penetrated into the city, and the most prosperous full house here is his industry, and there is a Ruichang trading house, which is the largest commercial house in Yulong City.

After Xi Ning and the others entered the city, they went directly to the Mantang Red Wine House, and went to the box on the third floor under the leadership of Wei Rong, the shopkeeper.

"Wei Rong, let Lone Shadow come to see Benjun." At the door, Ethan explained to Wei Rong: "Bring up all the specialties." ”

Wei Rong has never married in his thirties, and his slightly saddled figure makes him extinguish the idea of getting married, and he won this restaurant under the cultivation of Ethan. He ran downstairs, ran to the back hall to explain, and then went out.

In the box, Xi Ning said to Yan Zhu: "Yan Zhu, listen carefully to what I want to say next. ”

"Hmm!" Yan Zhu grabbed his younger siblings who were still looking curiously, and quietly looked at Xi Ning's serious expression.

"You have a talent for numbers, I will find someone to arrange a teacher for you, and you will become the best bookkeeper in Tianfeng Kingdom within two years. And Yan Hong, I want her to go to the training camp, which is the real place of life and death, if she can stand out in five years, she will go to Beijing to take the martial arts championship. Do you think this is an appropriate arrangement? ”

Xi Ning asked out loud, his eyes looking at Yan Hong's face.

"If it's a duel to the death...... Will it ......'

"I agree!" Yan Hong interrupted Yan Zhu's words and said first: "How can you get ahead without experiencing a bloody battle?" ”

Yan Hong looked at Yan Zhu in a cold voice, as if he was laughing at her weakness.

"Yan Hong!"

"Don't say anything, I'll be in charge of my life! I just want to know how Yan Song and Yan Lin arrange? Yan Hong's eyes swept towards Yan Zhu sharply, causing Yan Zhu to swallow the words that followed.

"Yan Song is a woman, she can enter the court as an official in the future, she loves to read, which just responds to her preferences. As for Yan Lin...... 'Xi Ning knew Yan Song's preferences, it was because she would take a few more glances when she passed by the bookstall along the way, and Yan Lin didn't seem to be interested in anything, but seemed to be interested in everything.

"The little brother is naughty and has never been in contact with the outside world, but his memory is super strong, and he seems to remember it." Yan Zhu hesitated when he heard Xi Ning, and hurriedly explained.

"The younger brother is the most favored person of the three of us, if you can give him a carefree life." Yan Hong looked at Yan Lin's little face firmly, and boldly said his thoughts.

"In this way, then enter the palace! I have an eldest son, who is four years old this year, Yan Lin can be his companion, I will give him the same education, and he will definitely be the eldest son. Xi Ning thought about his child and said this.

Yan Zhu instantly seemed to understand something, and took Yan Hong's hand and knelt down with a "poof".

"The grass people don't look at Fengyan, and hope that His Majesty will take care of it. The grass people knocked to see Your Majesty, and thanked Your Majesty Longen. ”

Yan Hong's eyes widened in surprise at this time, his face was in disbelief, Yan Song's little face was full of excitement, and his immature voice said: "Your Majesty, the grass people will be the top in high school, be a pair of eyes in your court, and a dog in the people." ”

"Haha...' Xi Ning heard her immature voice say these words, and felt very cute, so she asked, "I understand these eyes, why is it a dog?" ”

"Back to Your Majesty, dogs have a keen sense of smell and the courage to dare to come forward and bite enemies. Don't look at my young age, but I've secretly read some books. ”

When Xi Ning heard this, she felt that it made sense, laughed and touched her hair.

"Good, good!"

The meal began with laughter. )
