"This search has been fruitless, where are you going next time?" Qin Ya asked aloud as he stared at the road map in his hand.

Nightshade looked at the road map and couldn't help but wonder: "Just go according to your plan." ”

Hearing this, Qin Ya was slightly stunned, looked up at the nightshade, and grinned: "Okay, then let's go to the imperial capital!" The imperial capital is the capital of the Imperial Dynasty, which is where the imperial palace is located, and it is also the place where Qin Ya once lived.

Long Kui nodded, hoping that this trip could be fruitful and rescue Bailing Tianshan as soon as possible. The lark was surprised, when did Nightshade trust this Yu Qinya so much?

In fact, this is not because Nightshade trusts Qinya, but because Nightshade knows that Qinya can accurately guess what she thinks in her heart. This time, he guessed correctly again, and nightshade was not surprised.

Li Qingtong was silent, looking at the scene in front of her, for some reason, she always felt that she was superfluous, and she couldn't interject at all. And Qin Ya was always indifferent to her, never looked at her squarely, she was lost for a while, and she didn't have the heart to speak.

And Shuangbi has gradually stopped talking since she was severely reprimanded by Li Qingtong last time, in short, the atmosphere is not as harmonious as before.

The group embarked on the journey again, looking at the scenery outside the carriage, and the nightshade was slightly distracted. Li Qingtong saw that her face was soft and calm, her eyes were clear, and she had a unique aristocratic temperament between her manners and words, except for her name, she didn't know anything else.

The first time he saw Nightshade, Li Qingtong was surprised by her actions, no one would pay back such a large sum of money for someone he didn't know. At that time, she even wondered if Nightshade had other intentions to help her. Now it seems that nightshade is too pure and good, and everything is considered for others. Li Qingtong couldn't understand why such a person existed in the world, and what was her origin?

The lark had just woken up from the arms of the nightshade, and when he opened his eyes, he saw Li Qingtong's undisguised inquiring gaze at the nightshade.

Shuangbi and Qinya sat outside driving the carriage, and the car was silent, and it took a long time for the nightshade to withdraw its gaze from the window.

"What is Sister Nightshade thinking?" Li Qingtong said with a smile.

"It's nothing, it's just that I miss my family. Nightshade lowered her eyes, her long eyelashes quivering.

The lark glanced at Nightshade, and saw that her face was calm and not sad, so she also put her mind at ease: "Nightshade, when we complete the task, we can go home." ”

Nightshade nodded, no more.

At night, the group decided to camp out in the wilderness. Long Kui, Li Qingtong, and Shuangbi all slept in the carriage. The lark and Qin Ya surrounded the fire, and the jumping firelight reflected Qin Ya's handsome little face, and the lark blinked his eyes, as if he was sleepy. Although it is a sacred bird, it sleeps several times a day in Bailing Tianshan. If there's one thing it likes best, it's sleeping. Especially on such a pleasant and quiet night, around a warm fire, the sleepy insect sleeping in its body suddenly awakened. The lark forced itself to brace itself and stared at the fire in a daze.

There was the sound of Shuangbi's sleeping breathing in the carriage, and the nightshade did not close her eyes, looking out the window, looking at the moon in the sky, it seemed so far away, as if she was separated by a world.

"Sister Nightshade, why haven't you slept yet?" asked Li Qingtong in a low voice.

Long Kui got up lightly and said in slight surprise: "Qingtong is not asleep either?"

Li Qingtong smiled, sat up with him, affectionately took Nightshade's arm, and leaned against her: "Since we haven't slept either, let's talk for a while, okay?"

Nightshade nodded and said, "It's okay, I don't know what Qingtong wants to say?"

Li Qingtong's eyes lit up, and he said softly, "Sister, are you willing to hear Qingtong's story?"

"Of course. Nightshade smiled.

Li Qingtong smiled, his gaze becoming distant, as if he was looking for that memory.

"Qingtong is seventeen years old this year, and girls of the same age are estimated to have married others, husbands and children, but now I am out wandering the rivers and lakes, do my sister know why?" After speaking, Li Qingtong looked at Nightshade.

Long Kui thought for a while, and then said: "Although you have never mentioned your family background to me, I can also see that your background is extraordinary, and your life must be superior to ordinary people." You have given up a good life and walked in the rivers and lakes, if you want to say why, I can guess a thing or two. ”

"If my sister knows, she will quickly talk to Qingtong and listen to it. ”

Nightshade said, "You're looking for someone, right?"

Li Qingtong nodded again and again: "Yes, yes, what else?"

He ...... He seems to be called Shenyin?"

"Yes, my sister knows everything!" Li Qingtong couldn't help but wonder if he was Sima Zhao's heart, and everyone knew it.

Nightshade smiled and said, "Then shouldn't Qingtong tell your story?"

Li Qingtong smiled and said: "On that day, a feast was held at home, and all the capable people in the rivers and lakes were invited to come to the banquet. Daddy also wanted to get some help through this banquet, and he didn't want to hold the banquet halfway through, so many guests laughed* and foamed at the mouth, Daddy invited the best doctor in the house, who knows what the reason can't be found. ”

"I remember that at that time, my father was so anxious that I sneaked into the hall disguised as a man, wanting to share my father's worries, but I also had no master. At that moment, a figure came out of a corner of the banquet, dressed in a black power suit, with a ring-shaped jade pendant tied around his waist, and two jade beads strung underneath. When I saw his face clearly, I was shocked and thought in a trance that he was a god......"

Hearing this, Nightshade's eyes flashed, and he smiled lightly: "I guess...... Qingtong fell in love with that person at first sight. ”

When Li Qingtong heard this, he immediately blushed and said shyly: "Sister, let's continue to listen to me!"

"I didn't know what he was going to do, but he took out a porcelain bottle, poured it into a teapot, and gave it to a patient next to him, who drank it, and in a short time he got better. Daddy was trying to thank the man, but he didn't think he was gone. ”

"And how did you learn his name?" said Nightshade, puzzled.

"Later, a guest at the same table told me about my father, saying that this person was an alchemist, claiming to be a god, in his twenties, and his whereabouts were uncertain. Sister, I can't hide it, that person is so beautiful, since I saw it that day, I ...... It was him who was thinking about him, and he was sick for it. Not long ago, I heard that Shenyin was being hunted down, so I came out to look for him without telling my family......" After Li Qingtong finished speaking with a red face, he stared out the window motionless, as if thinking about something.

After hearing this, Nightshade was quite shocked that there was such a girl in the world, who ran away from home just to pursue a stranger who only had one side.

Long Kui's eyes flashed, and he asked, "Qingtong, is there any news of him now?"

Li Qingtong didn't shake his head or nod, but said, "I want to ...... I've probably found him. ”

Nightshade looked at the bright moon and did not speak. After a long time, Li Qingtong said softly: "Sister Nightshade, then why did you leave home?"

Nightshade smiled abruptly: "In order to find something important." ”

Li Qingtong asked: "Are you looking for something to save people?"

"Hmm. Nightshade nodded slightly.

Li Qingtong leaned on Nightshade's shoulder and said in a low voice, "Sister Nightshade, I will definitely help you." ”

"I haven't been honest with you, why are you willing to help me?" asked Long Kui, but his heart turned a thousand times.

Li Qingtong raised his head and smiled brightly: "Because Sister Long Kui helped me, and I also hid something from my sister!

Yes, everyone has a little secret that has not been told, she is like this, Qingtong is too, even Qinya is too. Maybe there is no need to say it, because she doesn't belong to this world, too much involvement, constant cutting, and messy reasoning.

Nightshade smiled slightly: "Thank you." ”

Although Nightshade had already guessed that Li Qingtong had another purpose for staying by her side, no matter what, Nightshade was grateful in her heart for Li Qingtong's help.

"My sister is polite. Li Qingtong smiled on his face, but he was a little stunned in his heart, he didn't tell Sister Nightshade about his true purpose, and he didn't know if Nightshade would blame her in the future.

The night breeze was slightly cool, and Qin Ya half leaned on the trunk of the tree, quietly listening to the small conversation between the two in the carriage. The lark next to him poked his head out and said to Qin Ya: "Boy, what are you going to do now?"

Qin Ya did not answer, but slowly closed his eyes, and the rustle of leaves in the wind could be heard in his ears, and the sound of several people sleeping in the carriage could be heard.

He remembered that time he went to the Zhenguo General's Mansion, and where did he want to hear about it, but he didn't expect those chivalrous people to be colorless and tasteless by his rival, and he just took out the antidote to save those people, and now that he thinks about it, except for General Li Zhennan, he has no impression of the rest of the people.

However, because of this incident, his nemesis began to hunt him down endlessly...... If he had directly told Li Zhennan the details of the person who poisoned him at that time, then Li Zhennan's family might not have seen the sun tomorrow.

Yes, his sworn enemy has a lot of background, and his heart is not small, and his mind is full of terrible conspiracies. poisoned, just wanted to shake the country's general's mansion and get caught up in the killing of the rivers and lakes, but in the end, he ruined this good move.

Although he provoked the pursuit all the way, he didn't feel that he was nosy and got angry. This Li Zhennan is a good official, besides, he once helped his mother.

He only needs to give the antidote, with Li Zhennan's shrewdness, how could he not have imagined that person would go up, now, he already knows who the enemy is, of course Li Zhennan will be careful to guard against it openly and secretly.

As for whether Li Zhennan can prevent it to the end, it's none of his business. After all, he was too lazy to meddle.
