Although Ding Guoguo made an excuse and wanted to get rid of Ye Ke Lan and Ye Shan, he couldn't do it. Nayashan said that she and Ding Ning had been recognized by the killers as one of them, and that it was safer to walk with them than to go separately.
Ding Guoguo thought about it carefully and felt that he was right. After all, the golden retriever bit one person to death, and those killers will definitely not let them go easily. She and Ding Ning didn't know martial arts, and it was indeed safer to follow them than to go by their own, so they agreed.
"Master, why do you say that Ke Lan keeps wearing a hat?" At noon, in the passing town, when a restaurant stopped to sharpen, Ding Ning asked Ding Guoguo softly.
Although they traveled together, they ate and lived in their own way, and they never ate at the same table.
"Probably because I don't want people to see what he looks like." Ding Guoguo raised his eyes to look at the table in Yeshan, and saw that they didn't pay attention to their side, so he whispered.
Ding Ning frowned, "If he doesn't want people to find out his whereabouts, wouldn't it be more eye-catching to dress up like this?" ”
"It's not." Ding Guoguo shook his head, "There are only two possibilities for dressing up like this. One is that he is too beautiful, so he covers his head and face in order to avoid more trouble. The second is that he is too ugly, afraid of being seen, and making ridicule. ”
Ding Ning nodded, suddenly laughed, put it to her ear, and couldn't help but smile, "Master, then what kind of person do you say he belongs to?" ”
Ding Guoguo snapped his fingers and scolded, "Curiosity kills the cat, didn't I tell you?" ”
"But I'm just curious." Ding Ning pursed his lips aggrievedly.
Ding Guoguo rolled his eyes, he really couldn't do anything about him, so he had to say softly, "He belongs to the first type." ”
Ding Ning hurriedly asked her how she would know.
"Look at his fingers... Don't really look at it! As soon as Ding Guoguo opened his mouth to explain, Ding Ning turned his head to look at the others, and she hurriedly grabbed his chin and forced him to turn his head.
"Got it, can't I just watch it?" Ding Ning muttered.
"He had slender and white fingers, and he wore a white coat of fine yarn that was very easy to get dirty. The knife in Nayashan's hand, the agate on the scabbard is worth a lot. He also called Master Kelan, and the black-clothed men who chased and killed them were not small. Therefore he must have been born very well, either rich or rich. Have you ever seen anyone like this who looks so ugly? ”
Ding Ning thought about it and nodded. But he didn't know how she knew that those black-clothed people had a big background, so he asked again.
"That day, by the moonlight, I saw the sword in the hand of the man in black glowing coldly blue. Where is that kind of sword used by ordinary bandits? After Ding Guoguo finished speaking, he patted him on the head and told him to hurry up and eat, and he was not allowed to ask again.
Stop-and-go along the way, there is no danger. Finally, on the afternoon of the twentieth day of the lunar month, I arrived at a big city two hundred miles away from Dingcheng - Changge!
Seeing that there was still one day to go, he could get home, Ding Ning was very excited. And it was still early, so he dragged Ding Guoguo to the city market to hang out.
Although Changge City is not as prosperous as Dingcheng, there are also many vendors, and there is a lively scene everywhere. The two of them wandered until it was getting dark, and then they returned to the inn.
The two of them bought a lot of things and prepared to distribute them to the neighbors when they went back. Although Ding Guoguo is not honored to return to her hometown, Dingcheng is the place where she has lived for several years after all, and she is also very happy in her heart.
"Brother Ding, please stay."
As soon as Ding Guoguo and Ding Ning entered the inn door, they were kept by Yeshan who was sitting in the store.
"Something?" Ding Guoguo gave Ding Ning the package he was carrying and asked him to take it into the room first. Then he went to the table where Yayama was sitting, looked at him, and asked.
Yeshan motioned for her to sit down, and after she sat down, he said, "We can arrive at Dingcheng tomorrow evening, and we will say goodbye after we arrive in Dingcheng." Thanks to your mentors and apprentices, we have been able to get here for more than a month. I wonder if Brother Ding can enjoy a face and have a light meal together? ”
Because Ding Guoguo has always dressed up in men's clothes, Yeshan and the others thought she had something unspeakable, so they kept calling her Brother Ding.
"Brother Yashan is really polite. In that case, then you're welcome. Ding Guoguo smiled slightly, these two people, the master is a road idiot, and the servant listens to the master's everything, so he often takes the wrong road.
Seeing that she agreed, Yeshan called the inn to ask for food. When Ding Ning cleaned up and led the golden retriever downstairs, Ding Guoguo hurriedly beckoned him to come over.
"How old is Brother Ding this year?" When the food was served, Yeshan saw that the four of them were silent, and it was too embarrassing, so he asked.
"Seventeen."
Yeshan asked Ding Ning again, and Ding Ning was busy fifteen.
"You really have a master-apprentice relationship?" Ye Kelan, who had been sitting silently, suddenly asked.
"Yes." Ding Guoguo nodded, of course she knew why Ke Lan would question it. Zi Ling is almost the same age as Ding Ning, and if he is a master and apprentice, others will be surprised.
Ke Lan also sighed, and then he was silent.
Although they have been together for more than a month, they never say a word to them unless necessary. Ding Guoguo didn't care, she didn't want to know where they came from or what they went to Dingcheng for. Anyway, after arriving in Dingcheng, they will go their separate ways, and there will be no more intersections.
When they had finished eating, they went back to their rooms, freshened up and slept, and said nothing all night.
The next day, as soon as it was dawn, the four of them got up and packed up and went on the road. Because I wanted to rush to Dingcheng before dark, I only had a break at noon all the way.
After a day of galloping, finally in the evening, we arrived at the boundary of Dingcheng. The towering castle tower can already be faintly seen.
"Dingcheng, I'm back!" Seeing that he was getting closer and closer to the city gate, Ding Ning opened his hands and shouted happily.
"Dingcheng, I'm back too!" Infected by Ding Ning's excitement, Ding Guoguo also shouted loudly. After shouting, she and Ding Ning glanced at each other and laughed together.
It's getting closer, it's getting closer and closer, and Ding Guoguo can't hold back the excitement in his heart. It's been a year, are you all okay? The emperor is still smiling so lightly. Is the eleventh prince still so naughty and annoying? Nangong Li... She shook her head, shaking off the face that had jumped into her head. She won't have anything to do with him again, so why bother thinking about him.
"Phew..." Ding Guoguo tightened the reins, and was still galloping a moment ago, the horse was not prepared in the slightest, and suddenly the reins were not reined, it raised its front hooves high, and stopped with a long neigh.
"Master!" Ding Ning also reined in the horse at this time, looked at the scene in front of him, and called her uneasily.
Ding Guoguo was also frightened, but she still pressed her heart to resist the wild beat and forced herself to face the front.
In front of the city gate, guards in armor, each holding a spear, lined up in several rows. In the middle of the city gate, on two snow-white BMWs, sat Tianxiang as the prince of the dynasty and the prince of Anle. Behind them, the ministers of civil and military affairs stood separately on both sides.
This formation will definitely not come at her! She doesn't have that much face. Thinking of this, she turned her head to look at the master and servant of Ye Kelan next to her.
Ye Shan smiled, as if everything in front of him could not shake him in the slightest!
