At night, at the beginning of the Ming month, the Lingwang Mansion was silent.

Both main courtyards turned off their lights early and rested.

A petite black figure was as light as a swallow, and by the moonlight it galloped across the roof, and in a few moments it fell into a courtyard, and dodged into the door.

The room was pitch black, with only sporadic moonlight shining on the ground through the openwork windows, casting a hazy and mottled light and shadow.

In front of the window, there was a person standing with his hands in his hands, with a handsome and tall posture, dressed in black and covered his face with a black scarf.

Seeing her coming, he turned his eyes slightly sideways, his eyes were glowing with moonlight, and he was as cold as a star.

Xia Taozhi said, "Huh? Why are you still covering your face? Are you going to be a thief? ”

Song Yuanxi glared at her angrily.

Then she nodded suddenly and said, "Sure enough, you are still thoughtful, we are indeed going to be thieves." I don't have a face towel, so why don't you lend me this one?" ”

After that, he reached out and picked the face towel off his face.

However, even though His Royal Highness the Crown Prince lost all his martial arts, his reflexes were still very agile. intercepted her hand at the moment, his eyes were full of anger, staring at her deadly. If she dares to mess around again, she will fight desperately with her. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has probably never suffered such a loss, and he is really angry.

But judging from the strength in his hands, there is really no internal force at all.

Xia Taozhi, who was originally suspicious of his "loss of martial arts", now believes eight or nine points. So he withdrew his hand, took out a slender jade bottle from his bosom and handed it to him, saying, "Just kidding you, why are you so serious." Well, this is the antidote I brought you specially to ensure that you use it immediately. ”

This is the antidote to the temporary rush of peony.

Most of the time Peony felt that although he was not the mastermind of "spicy porridge", he was also an accomplice, and he was so upset that he had to do something to compensate for it in order to have peace of mind. Xia Taozhi herself didn't expect that a bowl of "spicy porridge" would have such a serious reaction, probably because the body of King Ling was too light and too sensitive to spicy taste.

Song Yuanxi looked at the bottle in her hand suspiciously, and looked at her again, as if to say, "You are so kind?" ”

Seeing that she was about to take it back, he stretched out his hand and took it. The slender and white fingers gently pulled out the mouth of the bottle, and a cool and pleasant smell suddenly overflowed, refreshing people's hearts.

Xia Taozhi remembered the peony's instructions, and said, "You take a sip first, and then apply it to your lips." In half an hour, the swelling will be reduced and the voice will be restored......"

Song Yuanxi did as he was told.

As soon as the medicine is in the mouth, it feels like rain and dew, and a sweet coolness douses the poisonous flames in the throat. The tearing pain disappeared suddenly, and the swelling on the lips seemed to have eased, and I couldn't help but be secretly amazed.

The two of them did not delay at the moment, and took advantage of the moonlight to leave the Lingwang Mansion.

Mibai Mountain is ten miles west of Chujing.

If it was the two of them before, half a pillar of incense would be more than enough to arrive. Now that Song Yuanxi's residual poison has not been cleared, he has lost all his strength, just like a drag oil bottle, and the two of them walked for half an hour before reaching the foot of the mountain.

It's still the familiar night wind, or the familiar mountain road. Revisiting the old place, Xia Taozhi felt a strange feeling in her heart. Half a month ago, she was still a maidservant of the Shilang Mansion, and she met the prince of Xitu alone on this Mibai Mountain. inadvertently broke his conspiracy, glimpsed his true face, and was almost killed by him. Half a month later, she and this tsundere prince both changed their identities, and secretly came to this Mibai Mountain in the middle of the night to find their own bodies.

The world is really impermanent.

Song Yuanxi didn't notice anything wrong at all, turned straight to a hidden path at the foot of the mountain, leaned over and looked for something next to a big stone full of weeds. Xia Taozhi asked puzzledly, "What are you looking for?" Song Yuanxi didn't answer.

After a while, I suddenly heard him say, "I found it, and it's still there." ”

I saw that he neatly moved away from several inconspicuous weeds on the ground, revealing a hole. At first glance, it was dark and small, only allowing one person to enter, and there was a faint air flow at the entrance of the cave, and I didn't know where it leads.

But Song Yuanxi obviously knew, he didn't say a word, and jumped down first.

Xia Taozhi froze in place, she had an instinctive resistance to this unknown darkness. After hesitating for a moment, she leaned down and looked into the cave, it was pitch black, and she couldn't see anything.

I heard Song Yuanxi's impatient voice coming up from below: "Hey, little peach, what are you still in a daze, don't come down quickly!" ”

Xia Taozhi lay at the entrance of the cave and shouted, "It's too dark...... I can't see ......."

“……”

There was silence for a while, and suddenly a little firelight lit up, and Song Yuanxi lit a fire fold below. The firelight illuminated his sloppy face, and he stood at the bottom of the cave looking at her, and sneered, "Are you afraid of the dark? ”

“……”

Xia Taozhi jumped down.

The bottom of the cave is wide enough to accommodate three or four people to stand, and a tunnel appears in front of them.

Song Yuanxi was familiar with the road and led the way in front. The faint light of the fire reflected on the black cave wall, stretching the shadows of the two of them one after the other.

"How do you know there's a hole here?"

"Of course I do." Song Yuanxi replied lazily: "I dug it." ”

“……”

Although she had expected this to be the case, hearing him admit it without shame, Xia Taozhi felt that she still underestimated this person's face.

People are shameless, they are really invincible in the world!

The two of them walked for a stick of incense, and there was a cool breeze in front of them, and they thought that they had reached the exit. The hole has become very narrow again. Song Yuanxi gently pushed away the cover at the entrance of the cave, looked around vigilantly, and then climbed out.

Xia Taozhi followed him out of the hole, and when he looked around, he was suddenly a little speechless.

An ancient tree, a green spring.

Isn't this the same spring where they first met? It is also the place where their souls fight last before they wear each other.

In this case, it is highly likely that their bodies are around here.

The two were just about to search separately, when suddenly Song Yuanxi grabbed Xia Taozhi's hand and pulled her to hide behind a tree.

"What's wrong?" She asked quietly.

"Someone's coming." Song Yuanxi said calmly.

Xia Taozhi listened with a pricked ear, a little puzzled. There was silence all around, nothing but the faint mountain breeze and the sound of the two of them breathing.

Song Yuanxi glanced at her with disdain, as if he was very skeptical of her ability, and then pointed to the top of the two of them's heads.

Xia Taozhi: "People in the trees? ”

“……”

Song Yuanxi looked at her with disgust: "Go up the tree!" ”

Because Song Yuanxi is now losing all his martial arts, Xia Taozhi took a lot of effort to get him up the tree. However, when the two of them hid in the tree, they saw the fire below, and more than a dozen people in black appeared at once.

Someone was very smug and raised an eyebrow at her. It means "See? Fortunately, Lao Tzu found out early." Xia Taozhi glanced at him, but he silently admired it in his heart, this was definitely an instinct and judgment that was extremely sensitive to danger.

The black-clothed people under the tree gathered together, whispering something to each other, and the expressions on their faces were very solemn. kept turning his head to look at the forest in front of him, as if he was waiting for someone.

A few words floated up in the mountain wind.

They vaguely heard "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince...... "...... Tubi City", "I found ...... nothing", "Explain ...... to adults" and other words that have no beginning and no end.

The two men in the tree were puzzled.

At this moment, a person slowly walked in the forest in the distance. The person who came was light and vigorous, with a short knife hanging from his waist, and he looked very good.

Xia Taozhi inexplicably felt that this figure was a little familiar?

But the tree they were hiding in was too tall and a little too far away, and when she was trying to stretch her neck to see the person's appearance, she heard Song Yuanxi beside her whisper: "...... it? ”

He seemed to recognize the man, and his face changed.

Xia Taozhi just wanted to ask, but Song Yuanxi covered her mouth, shook his head at her gently, and said with his mouth: "Don't make a sound, he can hear this distance." ”

The man approached, and the men in black greeted him in unison, bowing and saluting, and said in a loud voice, "Your Excellency."

The man stood still and asked, "Have you made any discoveries lately?" ”

A man in black arched his hand and said, "If you go back to your lordship, I have been waiting for an ambush on this Mibai Mountain for a few days, and I have not found any suspicious characters. ”

The man raised his eyes lightly and swept around, and his voice was not angry: "Didn't find it? Or is it negligent? ”

The black-clothed men broke out in a cold sweat: "My subordinates don't dare!" ”

The man said: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is about to get married, and he has returned to Tubi City first. After the order, he ordered Er and others to continue to ambush and stay here, and if any suspicious characters were found, they would be immediately arrested and brought back to Tubi, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince would personally interrogate them. ”

"Captured alive. You must not hurt your life. ”

All the men in black received the order in unison: "Yes! ”

……

The two in the tree were stunned.

Why His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is about to get married and has returned to Tubi City? Is your Highness the Crown Prince on this tree above your heads?

It seems that things are going in a direction that they can't control......

Since they were thinking about finding their bodies, why didn't they think that the people who exchanged bodies with them must think the same way. Instead of searching for a needle in a haystack, why not come and invite you into the urn? I thought that they would definitely come back to this place to look for them, so I simply set up a heavy ambush here and waited for them.

It seems that the current Feng Yuanjun seems to be very difficult to deal with...... And he didn't have the slightest intention of getting it back, but seemed to want to replace it.

Unexpectedly, rushed back to Situ to get married?

Xia Taozhi suddenly felt that His Royal Highness the "true" prince beside him was green on his head.

Song Yuanxi still maintained the movement of covering her mouth, motionless, with no sadness or joy on her face, and no emotion could be seen. The hand covering her mouth was still very steady, but it seemed a little too steady, and it was so tight that she was about to suffocate......

Shaking her head and struggling several times, Song Yuanxi came back to her senses and let go of her hand, her face was flushed, and she took a few deep breaths.

I didn't want this subtle movement to be noticed by the man under the tree, he raised his eyes and looked up, and his voice was cold: "What person?" ”

Hearing the sound, the men in black drew their swords and assumed a fighting posture, looking up vigilantly, as if looking for their location.

Can this also be found? Xia Taozhi was speechless.

She glanced at Song Yuanxi angrily, who innocently spread his hands and said that he couldn't do anything now. For a moment, Xia Taozhi had an urge to leave him and escape. But he saw through her heart again, took out the jade plaque from his bosom and shook it in front of her eyes. Xia Taozhi wants to cry without tears, live and die together, this damn life and death together! But she is really not sure that she can retreat with Song Yuanxi's oil bottle at the moment.

Then he said, "Come out, I have seen you." ”

Xia Taozhi sighed deeply that her life was miserable, and she was desperate to jump down and fight hard. Suddenly, the branches and leaves of the big tree to their left shook, and a white figure jumped down from the tree, and its body was flowing and landed steadily.

Holding a sword in one hand, he held a sword flower in the air, and the tip of the sword pointed directly at the leader of the man in black.

Xia Taozhi's heart lit up, it was a son!

Dressed in white, standing upright, it was Gu Ziyi.

Song Yuanxi let out an almost inaudible sneer in her ear, but Xia Taozhi didn't have time to pay attention to him.

This familiar picture of the confrontation between black and white made her guess the identity of the leader of the man in black, no wonder she felt that the figure was familiar, this person should be the companion of Feng Yuanjun on Mibai Mountain that day. It's just that he changed his appearance at that time, and Xia Taozhi didn't see his true face, and he didn't recognize it for a while.

Xia Taozhi whispered her conjecture.

Sure enough, Song Yuanxi said with a dark face: "Yes, he is the close attendant of this prince, Ling Yao." ”
