Chapter 15: The Shadows
Guardforce didn't sleep well this night.
She kept dreaming of Xie Liangcheng, Xie Liangcheng's face in the previous life coincided with the face of this life, and they all asked her to save him with the same despair.
But through the heavy fog, she couldn't see where he was at all, and watched him disappear from front of her.
The dream was so terrible that she sat up with a scream, and a layer of cold sweat was already breaking out on her body.
She hadn't dreamed for a long time, but today she had such a strange dream, which really made her feel at ease, a reborn person is always more likely than others to believe in ghosts and gods.
She's not that exception.
The harbinger of this dream made her shiver involuntarily, and by the time Yuqing opened the tent, her face was already pale.
Yuqing was startled, and hurriedly reached out to touch her forehead: "Girl, what's wrong with you?" ”
Wei An shook his head, asked Yuqing to pour a glass of water, calmed his emotions, and then said, "It's nothing, I had a dream...... Don't alarm Mama Wang, I'm fine, you go and rest. ”
Yuqing still couldn't help but worry: "I'm still here to accompany you." ”
Wei An has always refused to let them make beds on their feet for the night, thinking that this is too hard, and they are usually allowed to sleep on the couch outside, hearing Yuqing say this, he nodded: "In this case, you go to bed and talk with me." ”
Yuqing went to bed carefully, put a thin blanket on Wei An, and then asked her, "Did the girl have a nightmare again?" ”
Guardan looks strong on the surface, as if she never knew how to write the word panic, but the people who served her all night knew that she always couldn't sleep all night long, a few years ago, the situation was more serious, after getting to know Shen Chen and Lin Sanshao, this problem finally improved.
There was a layer of cyan under Wei An's eyes, which seemed to be much more fragile than during the day, she hummed, looked at the darkness outside, and suddenly sighed: "I miss Shen Chen a little." ”
If Shen Chen was here, she wouldn't be afraid that any nightmare would come true at this time----- he always had a way, no matter how difficult the situation was, no matter how difficult the road ahead seemed to be bumpy, he could always laugh at everything.
Yuqing was stunned, she couldn't believe what she heard for a while, and only laughed when she reacted: "I heard my mother say that liking a person is like this, and when you are separated, you will keep missing the other person, and if you don't see each other for a while, you feel that life is like a year, and the girl must feel like this now." ”
Guardan couldn't help but smile when she said it.
In the past, she was always worried about Peng Caichen, because no one spoke, Peng Caichen was the only one who was willing to pay attention to her, she guarded his news every day as if she was guarding something, and when she heard that he was coming, she was happy since the morning.
Later, she realized that everything was just a calculation, and these once-happy memories became unbearable, and she deliberately forgot them all, almost forgetting the feeling of waiting for someone and missing someone.
But now, Shen Chen made her feel this way again.
If only Shen Chen were here.
Yuqing looked at her face, and persuaded her in a brisk tone: "Didn't Master Hou send news today, let Gonggong Huang bring you a message, and he will come out in a few days." You wait a little longer......"
Wei An's fragile thoughts were only for a moment, although she knew that Shen Chen could be relied on, but she had always been more willing to rely on herself, but after a while, she had already come out of the previous nightmare, and nodded to Yuqing: "I know, it's just a momentary emotion, go to sleep, I have to get up earlier tomorrow." ”
The Hou Mansion wants to have a treat, and as soon as the news is released, a lot of posts come in, saying that they are going to visit the old lady, which is all from the hot stove, and the old lady always has to deal with them.
Yuqing answered, leaned over and took away the glass lampshade on the palace lamp next to the bed, and blew out the candle.
The moonlight was just right, the trees rustled in the wind, and a man stood carefully at the door of the house full of wind and sand, coughed a few times, and knocked rhythmically on the inconspicuous wooden door.
After a while, the door creaked open from the inside, and a man with an ordinary face in an ordinary robe poked his head out, glanced at him, and then asked in a low voice, "Are you back?" ”
The man nodded, pulled the hood on his head, and also lowered his voice: "Are you asleep?" ”
"I've been waiting for you." Someone closed the door, and the man with the lantern replied to him, leading him inside: "Your Excellency, you should almost come back in time." ”
Bypassing the patio and entering the corridor, the man's clothes were blown and hunted, and when he reached the eaves, he stood on the steps and waited for someone to go in and report.
The defense here is extremely tight, and you can almost walk a few steps to meet the patrolling courtyard, which looks very different from this ordinary courtyard.
But everyone was at ease, and was obviously familiar with the scene.
After a while, someone from inside trotted out and invited him in: "Please come in, your lord is waiting!" ”
The man nodded, patted the messenger on the shoulder, and went straight to the door, and as soon as he entered the door, he couldn't wait to kneel down first, and shouted sincerely: "Long history!" ”
Xue Changshi raised his eyebrows, put the pen in his hand back on the pen holder, and then said lightly: "Back?" ”
The man agreed: "I have been very careful to hide my tracks all the way, so I have been delayed for a long time, please forgive me for my sin!" ”
Xue Changshi touched his beard, and his face was kind: "What do you say about forgiving sins and not forgiving sins?" We are all doing our best for the prince, if you say forgive sins or not forgive sins, it is really too foreign, what you do is extremely risky, and if you don't pay attention to it, you may lose your life, what is the point of delaying for a while? Besides, it's really hard for you. ”
The man was moved: "My lord is serious, avenging the prince, and his subordinates have already put life and death aside, so why talk about hard work or not?" Even if you want the life of your subordinates, your subordinates have no regrets! ”
These people are the henchmen of the King of Jin, when the King of Jin had an accident, they protected the King of Jin to escape, but it is a pity that the King of Linjiang was too cunning, received the news in advance, intercepted the King of Jin, and the people who escorted the King of Jin in front were all wiped out.
After Wuyi Mountain, they went through all the hardships before they arrived at Datong, where they are now.
