In the early morning, the snow stopped, and Gai Nie said goodbye to Xiang Yan and set off from Chu to Qin. The snow was thick, the horses were walking slowly, and for the first time he felt like he couldn't hold his breath.

After a day and a night of trekking in the snow, Gai Nie finally returned to the dense forest of the Ghost Valley. The plum blossoms were in full bloom, and he took out the agarwood bracelet from his pocket, put it on his hand, and rode into the dense forest.

When he got out of the forest, he didn't see what he imagined the valley to look like. Directly in front of you are the master and Xiao Han's house that has been crushed by the snow. It was a clean and tidy valley, and the ground was covered with dead leaves and dust, and it was rolled up in snow.

It's been a long time since there was no one here.

Gai Nie looked at these silently, he was a little confused.

What's going on here? Xiaohan?

What about Xiaohan?

"Xiao Han!" He shouted in despair, echoing through the valley.

Xiao Han... Xiao Han...

Ganie slowly walked towards the collapsed ruins, and above the snow, a white cloth swayed in the cold wind, and he pulled it out of the snow.

This is on the master's clothes, and the large blood stains on it have turned black in the washing of the years.

Master he ......

Gai Nie jumped on his horse and left the Ghost Valley, heading towards the medicine shop on the border.

This pharmacy was opened by Uncle Xiao Han. She said she could come here to her uncle if she needed to.

It's here, but it'......

Gai Nie stepped forward and knocked on the door, but no one answered, it was clear that the pharmacy had been closed for a long time.

He walked to the inn on the opposite side that had many memories of Wei Zhuang.

The innkeeper had changed, but Gai Nie knew him, and he used to be a buddy here.

"Excuse me, when was the pharmacy on the other side closed?"

"It was closed two and a half years ago." The boss is settling accounts with an abacus.

"Didn't you say why?"

The boss looked up and looked at him, feeling familiar.

"Having said that, he said that he had no worries in the Qin State, and then left."

He no longer had any concerns in the Qin State.

"Did he go alone?"

"yes."

The master was so seriously injured that he didn't leave with his uncle, who was Langzhong, and Xiao Han didn't have a trace. Could it be that the master and Xiao Han have already ......

Who set fire to the Ghost Valley? What about Xiaozhuang, who arrived on the second day?

Gai Nie's head was full of questions, what had happened in the two and a half years since he left? He couldn't think about it anymore.

"Boss, do you have any good wine?"

"Yes, guest officer, please take a seat."

Gai Nie placed the sword he was carrying on the table with a "snap". Many people around him looked at him and looked at each other.

The guy served a good drink.

Gai Nie opened the wine jar, hugged the wine jar directly, and poured the wine down.

The liquor burned his throat, and his eyes were a little red. As soon as he went down, he was a little drunk.

Borrowing wine to sell sorrow is even more sorrowful.

"Man, another altar!" Gagnie wiped the wine from the corners of his mouth with his sleeve.

The man brought another altar, and everyone around him stared at him. Gai Nie opened the altar and continued to pick it up and drink.

"Hey, you're drinking alone?" A young man about Gayne's age sat down on a stool next to him.

Ganie glanced at the young man, who had his hair tied up on his head, his emaciated and lean face, and his black shawl draped over a white robe.

"Hey, I'm talking to you." The young man snatched the jar from Gagne's hand.

Gai Nie looked at him and said, "Is there something wrong with you?" ”

"I—" The young man didn't know what to say when asked by Gai Nie, "I didn't see you drinking here alone, so I came to accompany you." ”

Gai Nie turned around, took the jar from the young man's hand, and continued to drink.

"Hmph, you see that there are so many people sitting here, and I am the only one to accompany you, shouldn't you thank me?"

"They don't come well, and you don't have a simple purpose."

"You—" the young man was embarrassed, "I'm just here to make friends with you!" ”

"I don't need friends."

"You need it now."

"They're coming for you, not me."

Gai Nie picked up the jar and continued to drink, ignoring the young man.

A man's voice came from behind: "Since this guest officer already knows our intentions, then we don't have to hide." ”

All the visitors to the table next to him stood up and flashed their swords. The boss and the guy have already fled.

"Leave not a single one." And the man said.

More than twenty people rushed towards Gayne.

The young man alone not only dealt with their attacks on him, but also had to go back and forth around Gai Nie to prevent people from attacking him. Gai Nie was still very indifferent, drinking silently.

"Hey, aren't you very good at martial arts? Come and help. ”

A sword flew and stabbed against the young man's face, and stabbed against Ganie's jar, which shattered.

Ganie wiped the wine from his face, stood up, and drew his sword.

The sword light illuminated the faces of the unscrupulous visitors, and the men hesitated, and it was at this moment that Gai Nie had completed his movements and put the sword back in its scabbard again. The men lay on the ground and did not move.

"It's worthy of Brother Gainie from the Ghost Valley."

"You know my name?"

"My name is Jing Ke, and I have been waiting for you in the Qin Kingdom for a long time, and I hope you can go to the Yan Kingdom with me to discuss important matters."

Ganie took out another jar of good wine from the counter of the inn and poured it into two bowls.

"Yan Guo, Jing Ke, Mo family." Gagne uttered these three words out of his mouth.

"I am the Jing Ke of the Mo family."

"Why are these people coming to you?"

"To tell you the truth, I have been hiding my identity and waiting for you to appear, and I didn't want to inquire about a person around Xianyang Palace a few days ago, but it was revealed."

"Who?"

"Liki."

"This woman is not ......"

"No, she is my mother-in-law, Yingzheng snatched her from me, she gave birth to my son in Xianyang Palace, I just want to go and see their mother and son."

Gagnie didn't reply.

"Why is Brother Gai drinking alone here, do you have anything on your mind?"

"I ......"

"Please believe Jing Ke."

Gai Nie told Jing Ke about him and Xiao Han.

"I've heard of this girl."

"What?" Gai Nie was shocked, "Where is she?" ”

"She should be in the Yin and Yang Hall of the Qi Kingdom. It is said that she has a special identity, she is the Dongjun of the Yin and Yang family, and she was directly sent by the Eastern Emperor Taiyi. ”

How could Xiao Han go to Qi Kingdom?

"Yin and Yang Family?"

Gai Nie remembered that a few years ago, Xiao Han pointed out the stars to him and Wei Zhuang.

"The strength of the Yin and Yang family is terrifying, and it will absorb people's souls and wills, although Brother Gai is strong in martial arts, but I am afraid that it will be more than auspicious to go alone."

It's really like this, his current martial arts can't hurt Donghuang Taiyi at all, and it may put Xiao Han in a dilemma.

"But, I'm willing to go with Brother Gai."

"No need," Gai Nie picked up the wine bowl, frowned, and said, "I think it's better for me to wait for her in Qin Kingdom." ”

Gai Nie had never trusted Xiao Han so much as he did now.

She can do it alone!
