Everything is going well on the road, everyone is a person who practices martial arts, and there will be no symptoms of motion sickness, but it is inconvenient to do three urgent things.

It was getting late, and the group stayed at an inn located on the outskirts of the imperial capital, in short, the closest inn to the imperial capital.

Due to the large number of guests in the house, the people decided to share a room. It was late at night, and Nightshade suddenly felt anxious, so she quietly got up and went out of the room. It was very dark at night, and there was occasionally the sound of the shopkeeper talking to other customers.

Nightshade bent slightly, went down the stairs, came to the backyard of the inn, looked around, and found the latrine. She hurried in, closed the door, looked left and right, and was relieved.

Sometimes, Nightshade also has some regrets, it is indeed a good thing to have a physical body, but it is far less convenient than the Yin Spirit. The three emergencies were sometimes embarrassing to her, because when she was a princess, the latrine she used was far more comfortable than it is now, and there was a special person guarding the door.

Now, she is really not used to it, the smell of the latrine is so strong that she can't help but cover her nose with her hand, for her, the latrine here is a kind of torment. After solving the problem, Nightshade cleaned his hands and was about to open the door, when he suddenly heard the sound of compact footsteps outside, followed by the sound of sword fighting.

Nightshade suddenly stopped the movement in his hand and listened to the movement outside with bated breath.

After a while, I heard the sound of someone falling to the ground, thinking that he had been killed. I only heard someone say, "Master, they were sent by the prince." ”

Immediately afterward, a person said in a rather cold voice: "Deal with it." ”

The sound of hurried footsteps faded away, and calm gradually returned outside. Nightshade breathed a sigh of relief, pushed open the door, revealing a slit, looked out, it was empty, and opened the door with confidence and walked out.

There was no blood on the ground, as if there had never been a fight. Nightshade couldn't help but speed up her pace, and before she could take a few steps, suddenly a sharp sword quickly landed on her neck, cold and cold, making her shiver.

Her gaze swept over the sharp blade, suppressed the tension in her heart, and whispered, "You...... What are you going to do?"

The man said after a long time, "Who are you?"

Nightshade hurriedly said: "I...... I'm a guest staying here......"

"Guest?"

Nightshade nodded hurriedly, and then heard him ask, "What's your name?"

"I ...... It's nightshade. ”

"What are you doing here?" the man finally asked.

Nightshade was stunned for a moment, this kind of thing was not easy to say, so he blushed and said, "Three...... Mikuyu ...... Things ......"

The man didn't say anything more, but he withdrew the sword, but didn't move for a long time.

"Can you let me go?" asked Nightshade tentatively, and seeing that no one answered, she cautiously turned her head and looked, but there was no one in sight.

Qin Ya, who was hiding in the shadows, couldn't help frowning, he noticed the breath of his rival just now, and came to take a look, but he didn't expect that his rival also lived in this inn. It's just that the man let go of Nightshade so easily, which surprised Qin Ya.

......

Early the next morning, several people rode in a carriage and headed for the imperial capital. Nightshade didn't mention last night's incident to anyone, and Qin Ya didn't see the shadow of his rival.

The imperial capital was a large city, surrounded by tall and strong walls, on which were guarded by columns of soldiers. The city is even more lively, with people coming and going, not only ordinary people, but also benevolent people from all over the world. And in the sky above the city, there are several flying winged beasts hovering from time to time.

Nightshade only found all this novel and interesting, and couldn't help but take a few more looks. Li Qingtong once came to the imperial capital with her father, but she just smiled and looked at the lively scene in front of her. Shuangbi couldn't help but curl the corners of her mouth, her eyes rolling from time to time, and she looked curious.

Qin Ya looked up at the sky, everything here didn't seem to have changed, and there was not much difference compared to the imperial capital in his memory. After not seeing him for many years, he only felt like a world away.

They went to an inn in the city, and after a few conversations, they all went to sleep.

It's just that the next day, not long after Long Kui got up, she saw Li Qingtong running to her with an anxious face and telling her that Qin Ya was gone, and a letter was left on the table.

Long Kui was stunned, looked at the content of the letter again, and said clearly: "The above said that there is something important, otherwise I wouldn't have left without saying hello." ”

The lark doesn't care if Qin Ya is here, Nightshade helped him, and he also helped Nightshade, so the two don't owe each other, which is exactly what it wants!

On the contrary, Li Qingtong lost his energy, sat at the table weakly, and still couldn't believe it, that person just left, and didn't care about anything. She once thought that that person would continue to help Nightshade to the end, but now, she is suddenly gone!

A flame burst out of Li Qingtong's heart, angry that Shenyin left them, and he didn't know if there would be a chance to see each other again in the future, so when he thought about it, he couldn't help but feel sad, and tears burst out of his eyes.

Nightshade was a little lost in his heart, and seeing Li Qingtong crying heavily, he hurriedly comforted him a few words, and asked the lark to leave for the time being, although the lark was unwilling, but also obediently withdrew from the room.

Li Qingtong looked at the nightshade with a calm face, but he cried loudly, hugged the nightshade tightly, and said while crying: "In order to find him, I don't want anything, I walk outside alone." I found it, but he was lukewarm to me, and I admitted it, and I still followed him wholeheartedly, but ......"

"However, he didn't say a word, and left, why, why did he do this to me, I just admired him, but why did he ignore me...... Is it because he hates me, is there something wrong with me? Sister Nightshade, is Qingtong a bad girl? That's why he hates Qingtong so much?"

Li Qingtong thought of Qin Ya's indifference to her, and her mood sank to the bottom, but grievances and sadness surged into her heart like a wave.

Long Kui didn't speak for a long time, her quiet eyes lowered slightly, and she gradually had a guess in her heart, could it be that Qin Ya was the god that Qingtong was looking for. She suddenly had some belief that Qin Ya was not a child, not only because of what Li Qingtong said, but also because of Qin Ya's omnipotent and amazing skills, which were no different from the gods in Qingtong's mouth.

It's better if he leaves or doesn't come back, although Nightshade feels empty in his heart, he knows better that this is the best result. walked simply, so that she was not stumped, and from then on, when she found the source stone, she could leave this world with peace of mind and without any nostalgia.

"Qingtong, you go to him......"

It took a long time for Nightshade to spit out such a sentence, completely ignoring the trace of unpleasant feelings in her heart.

Li Qingtong looked at the nightshade in a daze, tears rolling in her eyes, she didn't expect the nightshade to say such a thing, and her heart was faintly uneasy...... After a while, he choked up and said, "Sister, you...... Why do you say that?"

Although she was sad in her heart, Li Qingtong clearly knew that she had said that she would help Nightshade find something, and she had always been a person who did what she said, even if she wanted to find him, she had to help Nightshade find that thing first.

I was about to say something, but I heard Long Kui say: "Qingtong, Qinya is the person you are looking for, right?"

Li Qingtong looked at Nightshade with disbelief on his face, and wiped his tears indiscriminately: "Sister Nightshade, are you ...... How did you...... You know?"

Long Kui said: "Actually, I just figured out now that the person you want to follow all the way is Qin Ya...... Since you've always wanted to follow him, don't stop, and don't let me ......"

Her tone was calm, but there was a faint encouragement on her face, Li Qingtong's nose was sour, and her head shook like a rattle: "Don't, Sister Nightshade, although Qingtong is indeed not drunk, but Sister Nightshade is an important friend to me, and my friends need me, how can I abandon it! But please rest assured, when I help you find that thing, I will go to him, anyway, I have been looking for so long, and it will not be a while." ”

Long Kui looked at Li Qingtong's firm face and smiled: "Okay, just listen to Qingtong." ”

Li Qingtong wiped away his tears and smiled: "Sister Nightshade, I was so worried that you would blame me before, but I didn't expect you to think about me so much, Qingtong is so happy!"

The two looked at each other and smiled, and each cherished the precious friendship given by the other.
