Bai Heng did not doubt him, and said gossipily: "The situation in various places has not been calm in the past year, the warlords want to expand their territory and open up their territory, but they are suffering from the shortage of military funds, so they are looking for bronze boxes. ”

Ping Yan raised her eyebrows, "Is there so much value in a mere box?" It attracted so many people. ”

He looked around and whispered mysteriously: "I heard someone in the Qingyun Gang a few days ago that this box was originally in the hands of Huo Sanye, but then it was lost inexplicably. It is said that the box contained two drawings, one is a treasure map, the late Qing Dynasty foreign powers invaded the Forbidden City of the Old Summer Palace, the Queen Mother shipped out several batches of priceless cultural relics and jewelry, gold and silver money in advance. The other is a secret passage map, which was originally used to escape for the royal family and nobles when they were defeated. ”

Ping Yan raised her eyes, her eyes were bright, and she stared straight at Bai Heng. In her opinion, Bai Heng's words are true, but his frank confession is suspicious. I have the impression that he has never liked theoretical current affairs.

She didn't show her face, and followed the words, "Oh? If this box were obtained by some powerful person, wouldn't it be like a tiger with wings? ”

"Naturally, a treasure map alone can feed an army of 10,000."

Ping Yan smiled: "Then it depends on who has this luck." ”

Bai Heng lifted the lid of the cup, and the milky white wisps of the tea soup covered his slightly closed eyes.

She felt a little uneasy in her heart, and didn't want to stay longer, so she stood up, "I should go." ”

She saw Bai Heng nodding slightly, picked up the leather bag and turned around.

Bai Heng raised his eyes for a moment, only to see a newspaper passing by like an airplane, and it happened to hit her back. She bent down to pick up the newspaper, spread it out and looked at it for a moment, then frowned. Bai Heng saw that her back was stiff, and her hands holding the newspaper gradually arched, and the blue-white bone joints could be faintly seen.

He was very unbearable, but helpless, stepped forward and glanced at the front page of the newspaper, and said: "You don't need to worry too much, the battlefield is always inevitably dead and wounded, maybe he has his own natural appearance." ”

Ping Yan took a deep breath, spit out a shallow mouthful, and then looked at the newspaper, every word was like a cannon on the battlefield, and the boom made people dizzy and bloody.

It took her a lot of effort to lift the newspaper, and she choked up a little weakly, "It all said that the general trend of the Central China Army has gone, Mu Zicheng and Shen Yuchen led the troops to assault, but they were deeply encircled and disappeared in the deep forest...... In case another beast of prey forages for food......"

Bai Heng sighed, "Senior sister, you have to take good care of yourself." Life and death are fateful, and we can't fight. Describing her face, he paused for a moment, and he put his tone in a light tone to seduce, "The main battlefield in Central China has been fought for more than half a year, and the Central China Army has not taken any advantage, as long as the Lingnan Army wins the first battle in Qingyuan Town, it will be difficult for the Central China Army to turn over." I have heard that they are short of military spending, unable to raise funds, and owe a large amount of debt to foreign banks, and have long been struggling to survive, and now I am afraid that nothing can save them except the bronze box. ”

Ping Yan was concerned and confused, and her mind was blank, "What you said is true, there is really a treasure map in the bronze box?" ”

Bai Heng was bitter in his heart, and only said firmly: "It's true." ”

"Senior sister, what's the matter, do you know the whereabouts of the bronze box?"

Ping Yan was clever, loosened the newspaper between his fingers, and forced stability, "Naturally, I don't know." ”

The two of them had their own thoughts, both of them were a little absent-minded, and said goodbye after a few words.

Bai Heng quickly walked to the window, saw that she called a rickshaw, and walked a long way until he couldn't see it, and he was reluctant to look away.

But a person slowly walked out of the inner room, walking leisurely, and the turmoil was certain.

"What? Regretted it? ”

Bai Heng turned around and said with a somewhat perfunctory smile: "What do I have to regret?" It's just that you and I take what we need. ”

He also smiled, "She is going to Qingyuan Town on this trip, to live and die with her man, and it is unknown whether she can come back alive." ”

Bai Heng seemed to be amused, and laughed out loud, and the laughter brought out the vicissitudes of pain in his heart, "I believe that Shen Dashao will let her come back alive, but I just hope that I can see her alive when the time comes." ”

Shen Dashao suddenly became very cold, and in a threatening tone, "As long as you don't cause trouble, I will spare your life and let you kill Dong Guosheng and take revenge." ”

Bai Heng looked at him, his face was moist and peaceful, not at all different from the wind and frost sword qi of his body, "But have you ever thought about what if the box is not in Shen Yujian's hand?" ”

"That's not something you have to think about." Shen Da Shaopi didn't smile, his eyes were dark and thick, "But don't worry, no matter what the outcome of this matter is, I won't break my word." Dong Guosheng's life will be yours sooner or later. ”

Bai Heng smiled, but his heart seemed to be chopped, and the knife was softly sharpened, but it didn't hurt, but it didn't stop, it seemed to last all night.

He lay on the bed, like a living dead, staring at the moon outside the window until the moon set and the morning sun rose. The light was too dazzling, and it shot in so pervasively that his eyes were sore and painful, and he blinked, and there were a few lines of wetness, and without wiping, he turned around and slept towards the wall.

At this time, she should be leaving.

Run to the people of her heart, even though the war is raging there, and the life is in danger.

And he's just an unscrupulous hypocrite. He loved her conclusively, but she still couldn't compare to the obsession with revenge.

In order to be able to put Dong Guosheng to death, he did not hesitate to risk killing her.

In fact, he didn't deserve to love her at all.

On the twenty-sixth day of the lunar month, the blue sky is like washing, it is rare to let it shine, and the winter sun is blazing.

After breakfast, Xu Wanqing suddenly had abdominal pain, and her face was pale in Shen Dashao's arms, saying that she was going to the hospital.

Li Yong looked at his watch, saying that there was half a whispering train about to leave, and then he proposed unhurriedly, "There are many people on the train at the end of the year, and I am afraid that it will be more dangerous, so the sooner you leave, the better." Besides, I have sent a telegram to Jiangbei according to Da Shao's intentions, saying that it will arrive tomorrow afternoon, and Commander Xu misses his grandson day and night, so if he can't get there...... Commander Xu is afraid that it will be difficult to explain. ”

He thought for a while, "Miss Yan is pregnant, she can't run around, and the little young master is too young, and she needs to guard against bad intentions, so it's better to find a few henchmen to escort them with her nurse Xiyue first, and tomorrow the young grandmother will rest and recuperate, and then we will go." ”

Ping Yan listened to what he said, but everything was detailed and reasonable. But things went so smoothly, she was a little hairy, looking at Xu Wanqing, although she was down, her eyes wandered away, and there was also a kind of apprehension.

"That's fine." Shen Dashao was undoubted, and raised his voice to the servants: "Take care of the little young master, if something happens to my son, don't want your life." ”

Xu Wanqing felt that her husband was too obedient at the moment, and she didn't refute the suspicion with half a word, but was weird. She became more and more uneasy, and was about to say something, when Shen Dashao's two eyes were pressed down in darkness, blocking the itch in her throat.

"It's a long way, and you've always been too weak to survive. Let's go to the hospital first, you rest all night, and we'll leave tomorrow. Xiyue has followed you since she was a child, and the wet nurse was also chosen by her father-in-law, and I believe that there will be nothing wrong with them taking care of our son. He raised his eyes and said to Li Yong: "Just you escort them along the way, I really don't worry about others." If anything goes wrong, you will come to me with your life. ”

Li Yong replied: "Yes." ”

As soon as the words were sung and harmonized, Xu Wanqing couldn't say anything, she only hugged her son and kissed her, refusing to let go.

Ping Yan saw that Xu Wanqing had no objection, but there was always something wrong in her heart, and she looked at her, "Thank you young master and young grandmother for taking care of me and taking care of me." ”

Xu Wanqing saw her concerns, took her hand and patted it, her eyes were relieved.

Seeing that she was confident, Ping Yan put her mind at ease and slowly bowed her head.

Shen Dashao stared at Ping Yan, his eyes were like a torch, his eyes were black and bright, like a burning black fire, and he was warm when he was calm, and he was like a man on his back, and he was terrified.

"You don't have to worry, Li Yong will protect you."

He couldn't be more plain when he spoke, but Ping Yan couldn't help but tighten his heartstrings, and in just a moment, he seemed to hear many layers of deep meaning from his words.

She secretly laughed at herself for having such a timid and suspicious day, so she relaxed her nerves and smiled politely: "In this way, thank you to the eldest young master." ”

The car drove towards the hospital, and Ping Yan seemed to see him off, but her fingers under her sleeves moved slightly, transmitting a signal. Xiao Ma, who was hidden in the alley, nodded lightly, turned around, and slipped away with his feet.

Li Yong said: "Miss, it's not too early, let's go quickly." ”

He personally opened the car door, Ping Yan got into the back seat of the car, Xiyue saw that Li Yong treated her carefully and courteously, and when she was angry, she rolled her eyes to the sky and snorted, puttered a sentence and pretended, and went to the back car with the nurse's arm.

As the car drove into the bustling street, it only heard a few horns and a sudden brake. Ping Yan's hand that pinched the corner of the handkerchief suddenly loosened, and her heart tightened all the way.

Immediately afterwards, there was a continuous sound of slapping windows and cars, and beggars of all sizes swarmed up and kowtowed, "Master reward a few pieces of ocean, we haven't begged for food for several days!" ”

Li Yong threw a few coins out of the car window, and the beggars immediately rushed up. The driver started the car, and I don't know who shouted, "Nobleman, nobleman, you are a good person, so you can reward a little more." ”

As he spoke, he pounced on it, smashed the window and kicked the door, causing the other beggars to become even more frenzied.

The scene was chaotic for a while, Li Yong squeezed out of the car, and Ping Yan also secretly got out of the car under the care of a little beggar and ran out of the crowd.

Li Yong glanced at her back, saw that it was far away, took out the gun, pulled the safe, and opened it towards the sky, shaking the surroundings silently for a moment.
