Chapter 67, green mountains and green waters line six

The place Zhao Hui pointed to was actually not far from the place where Xu Zi'an was, and unlike Xu Zi'an, the general Zhao Hui had the map of Nandaoling as a reference, so it was naturally easier to find more clues in the vast mountainous area.

"The date given to us by the Great Commander is three days, and now two days have passed, and in one day's time, the range we can search can only go here at most" Zhao Hui untied the iron kettle on Rong Jia, and took a sip of water fiercely, and the hotness in his throat was slightly soothed.

"If you can't find the whereabouts of Her Royal Highness the princess here, then you and I will be cut off in the green mountains."

Yue Wu took the iron kettle handed by Zhao Hui, looked at the depths of the mountains and forests in front of him and said, "It doesn't matter if we die, as long as His Highness is safe and sound, otherwise, we will really lose the dead."

"Yes," Zhao Hui kicked the horse's belly fiercely, sat down, and then got up and neighed, "I can't shame the Praetorian Guard"

"Pass the order, the whole battalion will set off for Yandao, and it must arrive before the weather is cold."

............

Yan Road is on the northerly side of the middle of the South Dao Ridge, here is actually not an official road funded by the government, just a relatively flat mountain road, and there is no post station and officers and soldiers on duty, Xu Zi'an They are not far from here, but across the lush dense forests and hills, if you want to go, it also takes half a day's journey.

"How do you know that the direction we are walking now is a place with a lot of people?" After a night's rest, Duoduo was much better at this time, and the goose-yellow dress on her body inevitably stuck to a lot of green and muddy in the jungle, but her beautiful cheeks were very clean, and she was as vibrant as the morning sun in the early morning sun.

I don't know if it's because of the name.,Girls like to pull their hair into a flower-like shape.,Like a budding pear blossom.,It's very cute.。

Xu Zi'an resisted the urge to press the fluffy hair bundles with his hands, thinking about the animal feces found in a shrub somewhere just now, and said with a smile, "It's a secret"

Duoduo sighed lightly, raised a pair of willow leaf thin eyebrows, pouted and said, "Xiao Anzi, I found that you really have a lot of secrets."

Xiao Anzi's title sounds very palace-like, Xu Zi'an wanted to open his mouth, but found that it was really like this, so he had to scratch his head and said, "Actually, it's not a secret, the place where the fierce beasts are rampant is not suitable for people to live, but in densely populated places, jackals, tigers and leopards and other beasts will also be scarce, no one wants to be the prey and food of the other party, so they have to occupy the mountains and look at each other, as long as we go to the place where there are few traces of wild beasts, we will not be wrong, the ...... just now The excrement is the leopard's, the feces have been dried, and it must have been left behind when it was inadvertently passed by a long time ago."

Xu Zi'an explained, while picking a green fruit on a tree, wiping it with the dew on the leaves, and said, "Do you want to taste it, it's very sweet."

"Don't," Duoduo shook his head in disgust.

Xu Zi'an withdrew his hand in confusion and asked, "Don't you like to eat this kind of fruit very much?

"I do like to eat it, but you flavorful .........," Duoduo pouted and pointed to the young man's hand.

Xu Zi'an looked at his hand, suddenly understood what Duoduo was referring to, withdrew his hand awkwardly, and muttered in a low voice, "I washed my hands...... Besides, I don't use my hands for the branches........."

As a gold medal expert beside Shen Li, the young man is naturally proficient in various skills such as cleaning and chatting, laundry and cooking, and as an excellent old hunter at the foot of the mountain, he has not done any dirty things such as peeling skin and removing hair, shaving intestines and purifying blood, so when facing some excreted filth under a certain bush, although the teenager has been very particular about trying not to have direct contact with him, he also carefully washed his hands afterwards, in the eyes of the girl Duoduo, this is still far from enough.

Duoduo is not picky, but it still can't be placed to this extent.

So, in the next part of the journey, the young man smumbled to eat all kinds of wild fruits picked in front of him and continued to lead the way, from time to time to turn back and ask the girl behind him if she wanted to taste the sweetness, and the girl was tired of asking, and the girl followed the figure of Xu Zi'an in front of her, while rejecting the kindness of the young man again and again, and was overjoyed.

The journey was in a hurry, but it was also very interesting.

The dawn of the morning turned into the sun at noon, the morning forest fog also dissipated without a trace, there were fewer and fewer poisonous snakes coiled on the old trees, and the butterflies could finally be seen dancing in groups of three or five.

"The road is facing the sky, we can't go our separate ways"

Blossom let go of a Cai* caught by the roadside, and the butterfly spread its wings and danced, fluttering its beautiful thin wings and flying towards its kind on the meadow in front of her, and soon formed a beautiful scenery.

Xu Zi'an looked at the girl's bright eyes like butterfly wings, and couldn't bear to refuse the girl and couldn't bear to deceive the other party, so he had to say, "Not yet, at least until you are picked up safely"

Duoduo heard the turn in Xu Zi'an's words, frowned lightly and said reluctantly, "Now...... At least, you mean you're going to leave when you see the answering team?"

Xu Zi'an didn't dare to look at the girl's eyes, looked at the green meadow in front of him and nodded to show his acceptance.

"That's not good, you said you wanted to be my bodyguard"

Xu Zi'an remembered the scene when he first saw the girl between the cliffs, and said with a smile, "When you see the people from the government, you are safe, where do you need my protection?"

"Peace of mind, do you understand" Duoduo patted the young man on the shoulder, and said in an old-fashioned manner, "Besides, I will pay you"

Xu Zi'an groped for a moment from his arms, took out the emerald hairpin, walked in front of the flowers, a ray of sunlight shone through the leaf forest between the girl's hair, the fluffy hair combed the sunlight into countless strands projected on the hairpin in Xu Zi'an's hand, the emerald hairpin was more transparent, reflecting the girl's beautiful face.

With the courage and impulse that came from nowhere, Xu Zi'an actually inserted the hairpin gently diagonally between the girl's hair bundles, and even he felt very surprised.

However, it's really good-looking, Xu Zi'an thought to himself.

Duoduo obviously didn't expect the young man to make such a somewhat over-the-top move, and after a moment, he said coldly, "What do you mean by this?"

She thought that the teenager's move was to shirk responsibility, but in fact, Xu Zi'an's inexplicable move was indeed suspected of shirking responsibility.........

Taking people's money to eliminate disasters for others is the morality that a chivalrous man should keep, but obviously after fleeing and getting along all the way, the teenagers and girls between the cliffs are not just the relationship between employers and bodyguards, but real friends, at least during the journey of fleeing in the jungle, they are very careful to maintain this hard-won friendship.

However, after the forest in front of it, there is a wide avenue, walking along the avenue, I believe that it will not be long before you can see the people of the government, and at that time, the girl in the jungle will no longer exist, and she will once again become the princess of the dynasty, who is loved and noticed by the dignitaries.

And he will regain the identity of a mountain boy again, and even in order to hide himself, he must keep himself as far away from people's eyes as possible, at least not to be found on his body by the traces left by Shen Li.

It's a sad story.

Duoduo likes the breeze on the tall city wall, likes the meadow outside the imperial city, likes the jujube red horse of the eldest brother, likes, but doesn't like sad stories, she gently lifted her feet, took off the hairpin again, put it in Xu Zi'an's hand, and said coldly.

"What the princess sent out will not be taken back, you were able to rescue the cliff at the beginning, this is what you deserve, what does it mean to return the hairpin now, do you think this is a bargain in the downtown area?"

Xu Zi'an was stunned for a moment, only to understand why the girl's attitude changed suddenly, rubbed her hands uneasily, lowered her head and whispered, "That's not what I mean, I just think it looks good in your hair, and it has nothing to do with others, I can't accompany you into Beijing with you, it's just that there is a reason for me."

"What is the reason?" Duo Duo pointed to the small yellow umbrella beside him and the sealing knife in Xu Zi'an's hand, frowned and said, "Because of these, you must know that there are countless strange people in Kyoto, who doesn't hide some secrets"

"It's not all of that"

"What's that?" said Duoduo without waiting for the boy to answer. Aren't you going to Kyoto to participate in the Yuexi test, then you should enter Beijing with me, although due to the strictness of the laws and regulations of the Zhou, the government and the court are not allowed to interfere with the process of the Yuexi test, but I told you a few days ago, after all, as the princess of the dynasty, if it is a letter of recommendation written by me, it will definitely bring you great convenience, and even say that I can introduce you to a few famous teachers who are not inferior to the Tiandao Academy, as for the secret books of cultivation, there are countless in the Tianji Pavilion, and I will bring you a few books that are enough for you to study for a lifetime."

"As for entering the court as an official, it will be simpler, you escort me to have merit, choose from the martial arts positions below the five grades at will, if you are not satisfied, I will say to my father, the fourth rank with a sword lieutenant is also very likely, and if it goes up, it will cause controversy among the hundreds of officials in the DPRK, and those positions also need to be assessed by the military academy every year, although your martial arts skills are not weak, but if you think about the assessment, it is not easy"

Duoduo's tone was very calm, and even deliberately slowed down his tone, very nobles unintentionally light and light,

If it is a practice, I will recommend a famous teacher to you, if it is an official, the official position in the court and the central government will be chosen at will, Duo Duo said these words very clearly, and it is also very pertinent, in her opinion, to be able to say that the conditions to this extent, no matter how stubborn the young man is, will not refuse, at least not like Xu Zi'an, who almost did not think about it.

It's not that these conditions that are enough to make any teenager in the world hot didn't touch his hard heart, but because he really couldn't go, behind him was Shen Li, and among the many forces chasing Shen Li, Emperor Wu was the most powerful force, which meant that the closer he was to the palace, the closer he was to danger.

The emerald hairpin was still in Duoduo's hand, Xu Zi'an didn't take it, looking at the small piece of green light dyed by his fingertips on the hairpin, Duoduo's expression darkened.

She cherishes Xu Zi'an as a friend, since she is a friend, she can't really ignore the other party's will and forcibly keep the other party by her side.

"Since you are determined, I can't force you to do anything, but why do you insist on being admitted to Nanxi Academy, is it because of the Qingfeng Calligraphy there?"

"Qingfeng Shudao?" Xu Zi'an asked suspiciously.

"You want to take the Nanxi Academy, but you don't even know Qingfeng Calligraphy?" Duoduo's attitude was even more puzzled than him, as if he didn't expect Xu Zi'an to even know about this matter.

"If you don't even know Qingfeng Calligraphy, then the reason why you rejected me definitely wasn't because of this academy."

"Does it matter?"
