The ninth day of October.

Chenshi. The sky was gloomy, and the sun hanging high above the eastern sky seemed to be covered with a layer of mist, and the morning sun shone down, but it was not much warm, but a little cold.

When autumn and winter come, it's not surprising that it's a little cold...

But at this moment, the chill that envelops the earth of Dazhou is very different from the ordinary cold, it is a kind of cold that can penetrate the cortex and reach the flesh and bones, like an extremely thin and sharp needle that has been coldly pierced into your body. It was a really uncomfortable feeling.

And what made Xu Han even more uncomfortable was that there seemed to be two figures sitting on the giant ape at the moment, talking and laughing.

Especially the figure in red, did he look back at Xu Han charmingly, and Xu Han became more and more like a pins and needles.

Wang Yangming used the last bit of sword qi to temporarily suppress the restless gods and demons in Xu Han's body, and then Xu Han and Mengliang Qin Keqing left the Southern Wilderness and went all the way north, preparing to go to Chen State.

But when he arrived at Surabaya Pass, he met Ah Huang, who sent the nineteenth and others to Chen and returned to this place - that is, the demon king yellow monkey that was recovered by Xuan'er, and it found Xu Han and others at that time alone, with a letter.

A letter written in crooked handwriting.

According to the letter, they went to Niutou Village, thirty miles west of Yanxia City, according to Xu Han's instructions, but there was no Niutou Village there, and naturally they did not find the whereabouts of Guanglin Ghost and Liu Dingdang.

As for the other letters, it was not stated, but Xu Han and others were asked to rush there.

Although Xiao Nineteen is a little naughty and willful, he will not talk nonsense in such a matter, since he let Xu Han go to the last trip in person, he should indeed have encountered something strange, so after some discussion, Xu Han and Meng Liang divided into two routes, Meng Liang went to Chen Guo alone, and Xu Han took Qin Keqing to take a detour to Niutou Village in Qingzhou.

And just last night, Xu Han and Qin Keqing were talking...

Ye Hongjian, who finally finished his private affairs in Great Xia, found the two.

So there was a situation at this moment where Ye Hongjian and Qin Keqing were sitting on the giant ape that Ah Huang had turned into, while Xu Han followed him in fear.

......

Thinking that Ye Hongjian suddenly appeared last night, looking back and forth at Xu Han and Qin Keqing at that time with an indescribably strange gaze, that situation appeared in Xu Han's mind, which made Xu Han's heart chill.

So, he sighed deeply, Xuan'er, who was sitting on his shoulder, tilted his head and glanced at Xu Han, but he didn't understand the reason for Xu Han's move, but he quickly put his mind aside and continued to lower his head to rest.

Xu Han lowered his head and followed the giant ape. Qin Keqing seemed to feel something, turned his head and glanced at Xu Han, and then after hesitating for a while, he looked at Ye Hongjian beside him and said, "Sister Hongjian, Xu Gongzi experienced a big battle a few days ago, and he is still injured, can you..."

"Can you let him sit up?" Ye Hongjian asked rhetorically with a smile on the corner of his mouth.

Qin Keqing couldn't figure out Ye Hongjian's thoughts, but out of concern for Xu Han, he still gritted his teeth and nodded at that time, and said, "Hmm." ”

"Okay. Ye Hongjian unexpectedly agreed to Qin Keqing's request. After saying this, the smile on her face was even worse, and she turned her head to look at Xu Han.

She seemed to do it on purpose, and asked in a voice that was so gentle that it made people feel bone-chilling, "Xiao Han, do you want to come and sit together?"

Xu Han was excited, he looked at the fox-like sly smile on Ye Hongjian's face, he shook his head again and again, and said in his mouth: "It's good to walk, it will help you recover from your injuries." ”

"Yes, but Sister Keqing is worried about you. Ye Hongjian continued to ask, with a look of distress on his face.

"No problem, no problem. Xu Hanpi hurriedly replied with a smile, "I just like to walk." ”

"Hmm. Ye Hongjian finally nodded with satisfaction when she heard this, and she glanced at Xu Han amorously, "Then you can go." ”

After saying that, she turned her head and said helplessly: "Sister, look, Xiao Han is reluctant to come up." ”

Qin Keqing also smelled the smell at this time, lowered his head and stopped talking. Ye Hongjian glanced at Qin Keqing deeply, and simply fell silent.

......

At night, after a day's galloping, the three of them came to the border of Chongzhou, and at this speed, they could arrive at Yanxia City in Qingzhou tomorrow.

Now that the territory of the Great Zhou has been completely attached to the subordinates of Sen Luo Palace, in order to avoid those unnecessary troubles as much as possible, Xu Han and the three of them have no intention of entering the city to rest, but just casually find a hidden mountain forest as a place to stay.

Dinner was still simple dry food and rice porridge made from the small amount of grain that Qin Keqing bought in Surabaya Pass. After the three of them had a casual dinner, they slept peacefully.

Xu Han has also experienced a lot in the past few days, both physically and mentally, and soon fell asleep.

It's just that before he had time to enjoy such a rare moment of tranquility, a sharp pain came from his waist.

Xu Han instinctively opened his eyes, and subconsciously wanted to summon his divine sword, but the next moment when he saw the smiling face in front of him, such thoughts disappeared at that time.

Ye Hongjian was pinching the flesh on Xu Han's waist, and when he saw Xu Han wake up, he let go of his hand, then stood up and said, "Walk with me." ”

Seeing this, Xu Han glanced at Qin Keqing, who was sleeping not far away, thinking that Ah Huang was here, it would be okay to think about it, so he hurriedly got up and kept up with Ye Hongjian's pace.

The two walked side by side in the night.

There were dead trees everywhere, and the silence in the mountain forest was terrible, and there was no sound, the mountain forest was dead...

"Do you know what I asked you to come out for?" Ye Hongjian glanced back at Xu Han on the side and asked softly.

Xu Han was a little weak-hearted, and said to him: "I don't know." ”

"Hmph, pretending to be confused. Ye Hongjian is so smart, how can she not see Xu Han's thoughts, she glanced at Xu Han fiercely, but between that glance, there are all kinds of charms.

Xu Han was silent, bowing his head and being silent.

Ye Hongjian simply stopped at that time, and she said: "At the beginning, the marriage contract between you and me was an expedient measure in desperation, and everything that happened in the middle was really unsatisfactory. ”

"But since I have identified you, no matter what happens in the future, I will stand by your side without hesitation. ”

Ye Hongjian, who said this, paused suddenly, she took a breath, and said: "But if you Xu Han eats in the bowl and looks at the pot, and wants to enjoy the taste of the blessings of the Qi people, then I can only send you two words: no way!"

Ye Hongjian's tone was resolute, and Xu Han smiled bitterly: "Xu has never thought of such a thing. ”

"Haven't you thought about it?" Ye Hongjian's tone was a little strange, and there was a sour smell in the air, like the old vinegar had been knocked to the ground, "I think if I came a little later yesterday, you wouldn't have thought about it." ”

Xu Han was stunned for a moment, looking at Ye Hongjian with an angry face, and then he came back to his senses, it turned out that at this time, Ye Hongjian was still thinking about yesterday's events.

But it's not surprising that if there is really a woman in this world who doesn't care about such a thing, then the woman will never really like that person.

When Xu Han heard this, he naturally subconsciously wanted to justify.

But before he could say this, Ye Hongjian's voice sounded again.

"I know that Keqing has a life-saving grace for you, and you don't want to bear her. ”

"But the longer this drags on, it's not good for her or me..."

"If you really have mercy on us, it is better to give us a good time, than to gain and lose..."

Ye Hongjian's voice was lowered at that time, with a slight taste of loneliness. This is the first time Xu Han has seen her like this in his life since he has known Ye Hongjian for so long.

He was a little distressed, and there was an urge in his heart to embrace the person in front of him.

And at this moment, Ye Hongjian raised his head and looked at Xu Han.

"So..."

"Take one. Ye Hongjian said.

Suddenly, a night breeze struck.

Her long jet-black hair was lifted by the night wind.

The corners of her mouth were raised with a smile, and the light in her curved eyes flickered, as if she was a little scared, but she looked at Xu Han stubbornly.

Ye Hongjian is a very proud person, she was born in the Hou Ye's mansion, she is the pearl of Ye Chengtai's palm, she has a demonic talent that surpasses her peers, and now she is less than twenty, so she has cultivated to a realm far beyond ordinary people with her own understanding.

can make such a woman say such a thing, on weekdays, Rao is Xu Han will inevitably be a little proud.

But at this moment, he didn't have such a thought, his heart was touched by the girl, and he opened his mouth to say something.

"Rather than wait and lose in the end, I think it's better to face this outcome now. ”

"I'm not afraid of losing, I'm just afraid of losing after I have it. ”

The girl opened her mouth and spoke again.

Then, she fell silent, quietly waiting for Xu Han to give her an answer.

But at that time, Xu Han, who was about to blurt out some words, suddenly shook his body when he heard this, and the words that came to his mouth were swallowed back alive.

His face changed for a while, but in an instant, he suppressed this abnormality.

Then, as if to calm some of the turbulence in his heart, he took a deep breath, and then looked at Ye Hongjian again.

His head was lowered, and so was his body.

He bowed deeply to Ye Hongjian in an extremely formal and solemn posture, and immediately, he said in a trembling, but firm tone.

"The love of the red note is as deep as the sea, and I am afraid to get this favor. ”

"But as you said, I have the grace to save my life, and I can't bear it. ”

"Gu can only put the girl's deep friendship into the sea, and let the king flow in vain..."

"But if there is an afterlife, Xu is willing to tie the grass to repay it..."
