Ji Qingyi raised his eyebrows and said, "What are you talking to yourself?" I didn't. ”

Xiao Ling rolled his eyes, then grabbed a handful of melon seeds on the table and said, "I heard it outside the window just now, what did you say and find something?" What are you looking for? ”

Ji Qingyi turned over and sat up, then walked to Xiao Ling and sat down: "This inn is okay, there are melon seeds in the house." ”

Xiao Ling raised his eyebrows and said, "That's not it, this is a town that is relatively close to the imperial capital, and what we want is the upper room of this inn, so naturally the conditions are much better." ”

Ji Qingyi nodded, did not speak, Xiao Ling took a bite of melon seeds, then raised his head to look at Ji Qingyi and said, "I asked you just now, are you looking for something?" Inside this inn? ”

Ji Qingyi shook his head and said, "No, don't you remember when you just ate and put it, Chu Xiaoyao said that he seemed to see the envoy of the Western Regions?" ”

Xiao Ling nodded and said, "Well, it's right that Chu Xiaoyao said so, but didn't he say that he didn't seem to see it clearly?" ”

Ji Qingyi's eyes sank, and after thinking for a while, "I think it's very likely, so I want to go and see it." ”

Xiao Ling frowned and said, "Do you want to go and see?" Where would you like to go? ”

Ji Qingyi coughed softly and said, "It should be around the corner, I want to go and see it." ”

Xiao Ling's action of swallowing melon seeds suddenly stopped, and then he stood up with a "swish", and then said to Ji Qingyi: "You're afraid you're not stupid, right?" What time is it? Look at this day, it's so dark, you can rest. ”

As he spoke, he was about to stand up and walk away, as if he was afraid that he would be caught by Ji Qingyi by accident, but the fact was that Xiao Ling was indeed pulled by Ji Qingyi's arm, and Ji Qingyi said to Xiao Ling: "You go with me, I'll go by myself?" ”

After Ji Qingyi finished speaking, Xiao Ling pulled back, and then said to Ji Qingyi: "I don't care about you, you go by yourself, I'm going to die of exhaustion after a day's journey." ”

As he spoke, he was about to go back, Ji Qingyi let go of Xiao Ling's arm when he saw this, Xiao Ling walked to the door in two steps, Ji Qingyi waited for her to open the door, Xiao Ling did pause, and then turned to look at Ji Qingyi and said: "I'm really convinced of you, hurry up and put on your robe, I'll accompany you!" ”

Ji Qingyi grinned when he heard this, then directly reached out and took off his robe from the clothes rack, put it on his body directly, and then pulled Xiao Ling and said, "Let's go, let's go, hurry up." ”

Xiao Ling was stumbled by Ji Qingyi, but let her stabilize, Ji Qingyi and Xiao Ling went downstairs cautiously, and then just walked to the door, the shopkeeper who was packing up things below suddenly asked, "Where are the two girls going?" ”

Ji Qingyi paused for a moment, then turned around and said, "Go out and go around." ”

Seeing this, the shopkeeper walked towards Ji Qingyi and Xiao Ling, and then looked at the two of them and said, "You want to go out?" It's already dark by now. ”

Ji Qingyi smiled at the shopkeeper and said, "It's okay, we just went out after eating to eliminate food." ”

After speaking, he was about to pull Xiao Ling out, but was stopped by the shopkeeper, who walked in front of the two of them, and then said to the two of them: "Guest officer, you wait first." ”

As she spoke, she turned around and walked towards the inn, Ji Qingyi didn't know what the shopkeeper wanted to do like this, she was still a little impatient, because it might be darker later, Xiao Ling shrugged his shoulders and said, "What is this shopkeeper doing?" ”

Ji Qingyi didn't speak, fortunately, the shopkeeper didn't let the two of them wait too long, and when the shopkeeper came out of the door again, he saw the shopkeeper holding a red lantern in the second-hand, and then said to Ji Qingyi and Xiao Ling: "Here, it's too dark outside, and the two girls can't go out like this, it's okay to hold a lantern." ”

Ji Qingyi was stunned for a moment, then took the thing from the shopkeeper's hand, then looked up at the shopkeeper and said, "Then, we thank you." ”

The shopkeeper put the rag on his shoulder, and then smiled at Ji Qingyi: "Hey, what is this, two girls go out quickly, come back early." ”

Ji Qingyi nodded, and pulled Xiao Yunyan out of the inn, Xiao Ling glanced back, and saw that the shopkeeper had already wiped the table there again, she turned back to Ji Qingyi and said, "This shopkeeper is quite good at doing things." ”

Ji Qingyi raised her eyebrows and didn't say anything. There were no stars in the sky at night, and the moon was not bright enough, Ji Qingyi and Xiao Ling could see the farthest, that is, their carriage, Ji Qingyi carried a red lantern, and then walked towards the carriage, and when he walked to the carriage, Ji Qingyi said to Xiao Yunyan: "Chu Xiaoyao said that he was here, and he saw that the suspected envoy of the Western Regions went out from the corner over there." ”

Xiao Ling narrowed his eyes, then took two steps to the side, and then retracted back: "Why didn't I see anything?" ”

Ji Qingyi glanced at Xiao Ling and said, "It's too dark." ”

Xiao Ling shrunk his neck and said, "You said we can't see which side and corner, how can we find someone?" ”

Ji Qingyi carried the red lantern, and then said to Xiao Ling: "Isn't there a lantern, let's see it when we walk forward." ”

As he spoke, he took Xiao Ling's arm, and the two of them continued to walk forward for about a while, and then they saw that there was indeed an alley in front of them, Ji Qingyi and Xiao Ling glanced at each other, and then Ji Qingyi was just about to go in, but was stopped by Xiao Ling, Ji Qingyi looked back at Xiao Ling and said, "What's wrong?" ”

Xiao Ling pursed his lips and said, "No, you see it's so dark here, we don't know what the situation inside is when we go in, it's also quite dangerous, why don't you come in again tomorrow?" ”

Ji Qingyi pursed her lips, looked at the alley in front of her, looked at Xiao Ling again, and thought for a while: "I still want to go in and have a look, otherwise you are waiting for me outside, and if you hear any noise, you can come in quickly." ”

Xiao Ling rolled his eyes and said, "What else is the noise, I'll hurry in, can I rest assured that you can go in by yourself?" ”

Ji Qingyi nodded, and then looked at the alley and pulled Xiao Ling towards the inside, Ji Qingyi and Xiao Yunyan just walked for a while, and saw that there were doors on both sides of this alley, that is to say, this is a road, and there are people living on both sides, seeing that this is the case, both of them breathed a sigh of relief, and they were not so nervous.

The two of them walked very slowly, and after a while, Xiao Ling suddenly said: "What, it must be Chu Xiaoyao who is wrong, there are no envoys of the Western Regions here, isn't it just a commoner's house." ”

Ji Qingyi nodded, tilted his head and said to Xiao Ling: "Let's go inside and take a look, after all, we can't come in vain." ”

Xiao Lingxu felt that there was nothing to be afraid of, and then he nodded and said, "Cheng, then we will walk inside again." ”

The two of them didn't know how long this place was, and then the two of them probably thought that the air outside was very good, and this alley was not long, after all, both sides were also places to live, as soon as Ji Qingyi looked up, he saw that the front had come to an end, Xiao Ling tilted his head and looked at Ji Qingyi and said, "Then let's go back?" There is no road ahead. ”

Ji Qingyi nodded, and was about to turn around, when he suddenly heard a rustling sound coming out of it, Ji Qingyi and Xiao Ling were stunned for a moment, and then hurriedly raised their vigilance and said, "Who?!"

Xiao Ling took out his soft whip, frowned and said to Ji Qingyi: "It seems to be the voice above the tree." ”

There was a big tree next to Xiao Yunyan and Ji Qingyi, Ji Qingyi frowned, and said, "Is it the sound of the wind?" ”

Xiao Ling wasn't quite sure, because the voice just now was too small and too fast, so they didn't hear it too clearly. Neither of them noticed anything abnormal, and then was about to turn around and go back, when a chuckle suddenly came from above, and now the two of them really heard correctly, the two took two steps back, stared at the top of the tree and said, "What person?" ”

Ji Qingyi and Xiao Yunyan waited for a while and didn't hear a sound, Xiao Ling pulled Ji Qingyi and turned around and walked back: "Go first." ”

As soon as the two people turned around, they heard the sound of tree branches being broken, and when they turned back, they saw a person in white clothes, jumping down from the top of the tree, this person was wearing a wide robe of the Western Regions, which was a pure white cloth, which was not available in the Great Wei Kingdom, and he wore a metal ring around his neck, and the clothes on his body were tied to his ankles and wrists, so at first glance, he gave people a foreign style.

The man wore his hair, tilted his head to look at Ji Qingyi and Xiao Ling when he landed, and slowly said, "Are you looking for my mother?" ”

Ji Qingyi was stunned for a moment, then glanced at Xiao Ling and said, "You are the envoy of the Western Regions?" ”

The man tugged at his lips, then leaned against the trunk of the tree, raised his eyelids, and said, "Are you idiots?" ”

Ji Qingyi was stunned for a moment, Xiao Ling immediately couldn't stand still, and shook the soft whip on his hand and said, "Who are you talking about idiots!" ”

The man glanced at the two of them lightly, then stood up straight and said, "If it weren't for me, I would have left." ”

As he spoke, he was about to turn around and leave, but seeing this, Ji Qingyi hurriedly took two steps forward and asked, "Wait!" ”

The man looked back at Ji Qingyi, raised his eyebrows and said, "What?" ”

Ji Qingyi smiled at him and said, "I'm Ji Qingyi, and I'm the one who went to the Western Regions to handle the case this time. ”

There was no trace of surprise in the man's expression, he just came back to his senses, smiled at Ji Qingyi, and said, "Qi Lingyun, the envoy of the Western Regions." ”

Xiao Ling frowned, looked at Qi Lingyun with some disbelief, and said, "Are you really an envoy sent from the Western Regions?" ”

Qi Lingyun glanced at Xiao Ling, then took out a piece of brown paper from his arms and handed it to Ji Qingyi: "The certificate written by this prince can prove my identity." ”
