Under the afterglow of the setting sun, the bamboo forest, which was originally all colored, is colorful at this time. The tears of Concubine Xiang engraved on the bamboo body are particularly abrupt.

In the depths of the bamboo forest, there is a small thatched hut, and in front of the door stands a tall girl in blue.

Her face was slightly pale, and she had a faint cough. She looked into the distance, her brows furrowed, her expression grim, as if she had something on her mind.

"You're leaving?" Out of the hut came a man, about thirty years old, sturdy, mature and steady.

The girl nodded, still staring into the distance.

The man sighed softly, "I've seen you always looking down the hill lately, and I know you're ready to leave." ”

The woman shook her head and said, "No, I wanted to leave from the first day I lived here." Also, I'm watching the sunset. ”

Women's words are always brief.

"That's how you want to leave? Here, isn't it good? When the man said this, he didn't seem to dare to make eye contact with the woman.

The woman suddenly looked back, and then resumed her perspective, "It's another sunset." Another day of separation from the young lady. I don't know how she's doing now. ”

The woman is clearly avoiding the man's question.

"I heard that Xiao Shilang wandered the world just to find her. He once said that he would not give up when he did not see his body. Taoyuan is also sending people to search around. The man also looked into the distance and said slowly.

"So do I." The woman said firmly.

The two people who just spoke were Sheng Lan and General Nie Feng.

On that day, Huayan and Shenglan broke into the palace to rescue Huashu and failed, and were surrounded by the forbidden army.

But things didn't go smoothly, outside the palace walls and in the streets and alleys of the city were guarded by forbidden troops, and at that time Shenglan was already injured, and it was impossible for him to escape from the siege alone.

At this moment, Nie Feng took the initiative to find her, covered her to flee outside the city, and came to a small hut in the mountains and forests to recuperate.

At the same time, the news was blocked, and even Taoyuan was not informed.

During this period, Shenglan was infected with wind and cold, which aggravated his condition, and he has been living in the mountains and forests until now.

Sheng Lan already knew about the tragedy on Huayan, which made her blame herself even more for not protecting her.

Now that her injuries are healed, she can't wait to find her young lady.

"Thanks to General Nie's rescue that day, the grace of saving his life will never be forgotten. General Ri Nie has a need to win the blue land, and the victory blue will not give up. Sheng Lan had been bothering General Nie for a long time, so he took his leave. Sheng Lan arched his hand.

Nie Feng looked surprised, "This is leaving?" It's better to wait for tomorrow......"

Nie Feng's friendship for her, she could feel it. Although she has always been cold-spoken, she is also full of feelings, and she admits that she has feelings for Nie Feng other than ordinary friends. But she couldn't express it, because she had another responsibility, and she couldn't let feelings become a bondage, to her, or to him.

"Yes, it's not easy for people to find out when traveling at night." After Sheng Lan finished speaking, he turned around and went into the small hut to take out the luggage that had been prepared long ago, and walked out the door.

Nie Feng followed back and forth, his eyes full of worry and anxiety.

In the end, he only said one sentence, "If it's safe, remember to tell me." ”

Sheng Lan turned around and arched his hand: "General Nie stays, farewell!" ”

"Take care!"

Sheng Lan didn't raise his head, turned around and walked quickly down the mountain.

As the sun sets, the shadows of the night fall, and a touch of blue fragrance gradually disappears into the darkness.

Sheng Lan was the first to come to the cliff where Huayan fell, and after three days and three nights of hard work, the entire mountain was simply climbed by her, but in the end it was still fruitless.

She did not give up, and then walked through all the villages around the mountain, all the way, without stopping.

After months of hard work, I finally found out the whereabouts of Huayan in a small town.

The person who told her was the proprietress of an inn, and she described the most similar appearance, but she was not sure of her name. I only know that the girl followed an old man named Xianmao to this market to sell medicinal herbs. Stayed with her for one night. He was followed by a white wolf.

"Wolves?" Sheng Lan asked in surprise.

Speaking of wolves and wolf bite incidents, the proprietress described it in a good way, which made people listen to it, and it was like being on the scene.

Despite this, Sheng Lan was still unsure if what the proprietress was talking about was her young lady, so she decided to take the proprietress's suggestion and go to the Langya Mountain the next day to find the old man Xianmao.

I stayed at the inn that day.

Towards the end of the evening, another group of guests came to the inn.

Looking at his appearance, he looks like a disciple of a certain sect in the rivers and lakes. The strange thing is that more than a dozen people, dressed in the clothes of three different sects, are all like their own brothers, sitting at the same table to eat.

Sitting on the left, a man about forty years old, with a shriveled figure and wearing a dirty open vest, suddenly laughed, lowered his head and said to the others: "I guess the Golden Hall Master must have a detailed plan for letting us go this time, otherwise he would not have summoned us so vigorously. ”

The person who spoke was the head of the Flowing Water Sect, Qiu Sanya.

A young man with a round head and a sturdy physique sitting on the right answered: "But in my opinion, his golden unicorn alone can't hold up the façade!" "This person's name is Yuji, and he is the backbone of the Tongtian Sect.

"He can't hold it, naturally someone can hold it, but you are worried about this!" The second leader of the Busan faction, Huo Yidao sneered. He ate meat with one hand and drank wine with the other, so much so that he paid little attention to his long, oil-stained hair that stuck to the dining table.

"I heard......" Qiu Sanya was about to bow his head to say something to them, when his eyes suddenly glanced out of the door, and quietly waved his hand to them, signaling them to stop talking.

A man and a woman walked outside the door, the man was dressed in gray cloth, his face was slightly pale, but his eyes were deep and bright.

The woman was dressed in a peony red dress with a gauze scarf over her eyes, and seemed to be blind.

Everyone's eyes were invariably attracted by a "wolf dog" behind her, bowing their heads and ears, not knowing what they were saying.

Although these two people didn't say a word, just judging from the grandeur they exuded, they already knew that their origins were not small.

Even if she is not a person in the martial arts, she is also a young lady of an official family.

The reason why they didn't recognize the man as Jade Mask was because Jade Mask didn't reveal his weapon, the Silver Fan.

That woman is naturally a painter.

They returned all the way from the original road of the Madman Valley and came to the inn to rest for a while.

The proprietress welcomed a new guest when she saw it. "Do the two guest officers stay in the hotel?"

Yumian replied with a smile, "I live in the hotel, but you have to bring me a table of good wine and food first." I haven't had a proper meal in days. ”

"Well, the two of you will come here and sit down first, and the food and drinks will be here soon!" The proprietress led the two of them to the seats next to the men. Before leaving, she didn't forget to take a look at the painting, but she didn't say anything, and went into the kitchen as usual.

Yumian picked up the teacup on the table and began to pour tea for Huayan. The painting has been very quiet, and everything is arranged by the jade face.

She picked up the teacup, took a sip, and handed the rest of the tea to Snow.

The snow was very thirsty, and it was very urgent.

On the surface, the jade face and painted face are no different from ordinary people. It is inappropriate for someone of their status to appear here, and it has to be strange.

From the time they entered the door, Qiu Sanya's eyes never left them. The experience of traveling south and north told him that the two people opposite him were not small.

Yuji didn't think so, he drank as usual and spoke loudly, "Jin Qilin doesn't want to rely on Liu Fanggong to get ahead, what can he do!" ”

"Be quiet! Are you afraid that others will not know what we are here for? Huo Yidao also seemed to be more vigilant, and he asked towards Xiongji.

But the word "golden unicorn" has long been heard by the two people at the next table.

It's just that from their faces, there is not the slightest change.

Yuji was interrupted twice by Huo Yidao, feeling a little unhappy in his heart, he couldn't help but say with anger: "What are you afraid of?!" I'm up to it! It's all right! ”

Huo Yidao was enraged, his eyes widened, "You kid really doesn't know what to do!" ......”

"You two have something to say, don't be angry. Harmony makes money! Yumian got up and smiled to persuade peace.

Huo Yidao roared and asked, "Who are you!" When will it be your turn to speak here? ”

Obviously, he wanted to use an excuse to test Yumian's identity.

Yumian arched his hand and said with a begging for mercy: "It's Xiaosheng who doesn't know the height of the sky, talking nonsense, and the hero is not angry, not angry." If there is any disturbance, Xiaosheng and his sister will accompany the heroes. After speaking, he picked up the wine glass that the proprietress had just handed over and filled it, "Xiaosheng punished himself with three glasses and apologized to the hero." ”

Seeing that Yu Mian was so low, where was the appearance of a strong opponent, Huo Yidao couldn't help but show disdain.

"Count on you, kid will say." Huo Yidao smiled playfully, turned around and ignored it.

I only heard him say to his companions: "It's just a poor scholar, and he has no ability." Come on, come on, everyone can eat with confidence. ”

Qiu Sanya smiled and nodded in agreement, still observing the two from time to time.

Hua Yan took the wine glass in Yumian's hand and replaced it with a teacup. "You haven't recovered yet, so you shouldn't drink alcohol."

The jade face did not follow, and flattered: "Shall I have another drink?" Just one cup! ”

Huayan was silent, and only took some vegetables and put them in the jade noodle bowl.

Her every move, like a normal person, is clear about the surrounding objects.

Yumian reluctantly put down the wine glass silently, "It's still my little sister who cares about me......" He played the round field and lifted the dishes and chopsticks again to eat.

"Qiu Laosan, what did you just say?" Huo Yidao asked suddenly.

Qiu Sanya was stunned suddenly, thought about it, and looked at the jade face with scruples, and saw that the two were the same, so he finally let down his guard and whispered: "I heard that there are people from Taoyuan here!" And just fall asleep upstairs! ”

Huo Yidao leaned in and asked, "Is this true?" How do you know? ”

"I can't find out what news I sent to the Flowing Water Sect! This news has just come out! Qiu Sanya said triumphantly.

When Yuji heard this, the chicken leg in his hand also fell off, and he also leaned his head closer and asked nervously, "Who?" Who's upstairs?! ”

Qiu Sanya looked around and said mysteriously: "She's not a big person." It's a girl next to the big guy. What is it called...... Victory Blue ......"

"Who's the girl? What is there to track down a girl! Huo Yidao said meaninglessly, with a relentless look on his face.

Qiu Sanya was not convinced, and continued: "She? She was the girl next to the county lord of Huayan back then, and she was also from Taoyuan! The people in Taoyuan are not bad at martial arts. You may not win it alone! ”

"And talking about painting faces? She's long dead! What can a girl do? I'll catch one for you tonight! Just give it to the golden unicorn as a meeting gift! Huo Yidao said angrily, completely forgetting the existence of other people around him.

"Be quiet, lest your prey don't know you're going to catch her?" Qiu Sanya said jokingly, and hurriedly stopped talking. Motioned for everyone to continue drinking.

Yumian suddenly sighed: "It's over." He shook his head helplessly.

Hua Yan put down the dishes and chopsticks and checked the rice bowl of the snow. She stroked Xue's head and whispered: "Xue, eat more, if you have physical strength, you can play games." ”
