Sima Hongyan had never seen Ban Lingruo admire anyone so much. I was also curious about what kind of person could have such a great reputation!

Yan Hong said: "Actually, you don't need to deify my master like this, in the ten years since he studied art, I think he is no different from ordinary people." ”

Sima Hongyan smiled: "That's because you've been with him for a long time, so it's not weird." When you come back and see his old man, you can introduce my sister to him, so that my silly sister can see his old man's demeanor. ”

Yan Hong said: "No problem! When I see my master, I will definitely tell him! ”

Ban Lingruo happily took Sima Hongyan's hand and thanked him repeatedly!

Shi Jinyan smiled on the side: "The person who introduced you is the Ninth Prince, what are you thanking her for?" ”

Everyone laughed all the way to the mountain.

For Yan Hong, Sima Hongyan, and a few people who practice martial arts, going up these stone ladders is nothing, but they have worked hard to know how to do martial arts. Nearly halfway through the walk, although she deliberately covered it up, she couldn't help but be sweaty and panting.

Sima Hongyan saw that Shi Jinyan was already gritting her teeth and insisting, but she just held on and didn't say rest. I secretly laughed at her for being reckless, but I also admired her endurance. said to Yan Hong in front of him: "Yan Hong, should we take a break?" Cautious...... I can't walk anymore! ”

At this time, Sima Hongyan's three women were all dressed as maids, and there were people from Xiao Ling Sword Sect in front of them to lead the way, and Yan Hong was not good at accompanying them to stand on the mountainside to rest. So he said to Sima Hongyan: "I will leave four guards to rest nearby for a while, and I will go up with the person who leads the way first." After resting, you will walk slowly, and we will meet again on the mountain. ”

Sima Hongyan nodded in agreement, and Yan Hong left four guards and continued to go up with the others and the disciples who led the way.

The two men glanced back before leaving, and they both thought secretly: "This prince is just talking about pomp, coming to this kind of place where people from the rivers and lakes gather, and bringing three such beautiful maids to serve!" ”

Seeing that Yan Hong left first, Sima Hongyan looked around, it was not good to rest on the road that everyone must pass, so he and Ban Lingruo helped Shi Jinyan to a small road next to him, and turned to a place that passers-by could not see. Find a slightly cleaner flat ground, let Shi Jinyan sit down and rest, and the guard took out the water bladder and handed it to the three of them.

Shi Jinyan was indeed very tired, and she didn't dare to be reckless, so she drank a few sips of water and sat down to adjust her rapid breathing.

The four guards left behind knew the identities of the three women, and they didn't dare to be careless, so they found a position in the four corners and guarded each other.

Sima Hongyan looked around, this belongs to the halfway of Tianling Mountain, the surrounding trees are dense, overgrown with weeds, and all kinds of unknown wildflowers grow wantonly, the scene is extremely beautiful.

Sima Hongyan took a deep breath, and after slowly exhaling it, he said leisurely: "If you can build a small cabin here, it is not bad to live here." Stay away from the noise and cultivate your body. Breathe such fresh air every day and live a long life! ”

Shi Jinyan said: "With your temperament, I guarantee that you will return to the capital after living for less than a month." Still self-cultivation? Say it as if you see through the red dust! ”

Sima Hongyan turned his head and said, "I'm expressing my emotions, and I don't really want to live here." If you can live in the mountains, won't you become a wild man? Can we still have a good chat? ”

Ban Lingruo said with a smile on the side: "I don't want to live here, you see that there are trees everywhere here, and there is not even a road, do you usually have to climb trees and fly around like monkeys?" ”

Sima Hongyan was so angry that she went to arrest her, but Ban Lingruo hurriedly smiled and dodged. Sima Hongyan said while chasing: "You two guys who love to pour cold water, deliberately go against me!" ”

The three girls laughed and played together. When the four guards saw that these young ladies were carefree and arbitrary, they all shook their heads secretly, and continued to look at the six roads and remain vigilant.

After resting for a while, Shi Jinyan didn't want to delay everyone's progress because of herself. I don't feel so fast in my heartbeat, so I have to stand up. Sima Hongyan pressed her shoulder and said, "You don't have to worry, you can only go to the end in one go after enough rest." Otherwise, after a while, you won't be able to walk again. ”

Not to be outdone, Shi Jinyan said: "I can, I can go to the top without resting for a while." ”

Sima Hongyan smiled and said, "You can't do it, I can't do it!" Would it be nice for you to let me rest a little longer? My legs are still shaking! ”

Shi Jinyan knew that it was Sima Hongyan who took care of her, so she didn't say anything and sat down again.

Suddenly, Ban Lingruo, who was sitting on the side, put her index finger to her lips and made a silent movement. The four guards seemed to have noticed something, and immediately approached and surrounded the three women in the middle.

Sima Hongyan didn't feel anything, and couldn't help but ask in a low voice, "What's wrong?" Got a beast? ”

Ban Lingruo looked into the distance and whispered, "It's not a beast, it's a voice that seems to be someone talking." ”

Shi Jinyan said curiously: "It's so remote here, and there are no roads around, how can anyone be here?" Did you hear it wrong? ”

Ban Lingruo was not sure enough, so he turned around and asked the four guards. One of them had a better ear, nodded slightly to Ban Lingruo, agreed with Ban Lingruo's statement, and stretched out his hand to point in one direction.

Sima Hongyan saw that there was really someone here, so he immediately became vigilant and said in a low voice: "Can you hear who it is?" Is there someone who has an appointment to compete here? ”

Ban Lingruo said: "I didn't hear the sound of fighting, we just talked, but we were far away and couldn't hear what was said." ”

Shi Jinyan said at this time: "Since these people are here to talk about things, it must be an extremely confidential matter, I think it is better for us to leave here, so as not to cause trouble." ”

Sima Hongyan quietly came to Ban Lingruo's side, asked everyone to be quiet, and said to Ban Lingruo: "Listen carefully and see if you can hear anything!" ”

Ban Lingruo nodded, held her breath, and listened carefully.

After a while, Ban Lingruo said: "I can't hear it clearly, vaguely as if I want to say something, the voice is male and female, and one of the men's voices is more impatient, so the voice is a little loud." ”

Sima Hongyan pondered secretly and said: "This place is not far from the mountain, and the thing they are plotting here must be related to worshipping the mountain and changing posts." If we want to be detrimental to this rally, we are all in it, and it is inevitable that there will be a plot at the meeting, and I feel it is necessary to find out. What do you say? ”

The four guards hesitated slightly, what Sima Hongyan said made sense, but if it was someone else's private matter, if he overheard it in the past, he would be caught.

Ban Lingruo and Shi Jinyan couldn't make up their minds and didn't dare to answer.

Sima Hongyan saw that everyone was hesitant, too lazy to talk to them, got up and followed the direction that Ban Lingruo was looking at, and said in a low voice: "Since you don't speak, listen to me, if it's not someone who is plotting against you, we don't want to alarm them, just leave quietly." ”

Ban Lingruo grabbed her and said, "Sister, it's too dangerous for you to do this, right?" In case it has nothing to do with us, let's peek into other people's secrets. It's better to have more than one thing on the rivers and lakes! ”

Sima Hongyan disagreed, and said, "What's the matter with going and seeing?" We don't alarm them, and even if we hear something, don't say anything. ”

Shi Jinyan said: "The ninth prince is still waiting for us on the mountain, why don't you go and report to the ninth prince first, don't come back, we will make our own decisions and cause trouble for the ninth prince!" ”

Sima Hongyan's least favorite thing to hear now is that someone says that she is causing trouble. She said, "Why is it a problem to find out again?" If someone wants to disrupt the assembly on the mountain, poison everyone, or harm anyone, you will delay the matter. ”

The four guards were also hesitant at this time, and one of them said: "Otherwise, according to the meaning of the poetry girl, let's go and tell the ninth prince first." If something goes wrong with the girls, we can't afford it. ”

Sima Hongyan felt that everyone had nothing to do with themselves at this time, and was slightly angry, and said: "If you are afraid of causing trouble, go and report to Yan Hong first, and I will see for myself." If I get into trouble, I'll take it myself! With that, he tiptoed forward.

Ban Lingruo and Shi Jinyan were relatively speechless, and at the same time, "Alas! He got up and followed her.

Look at me, look at you, four guards. I was worried that I would cause trouble by acting without notification, and I was also worried that if these three girls really got into trouble and were injured or something, they would not be able to explain to the Nine Emperor Princes. In desperation, they had to nod to each other, and followed behind with a little distance.
