Chapter 39: Encountering the Old Man

In order to take care of Yun Ji, who was weak and wounded, Wei Xiwan and his party rode slowly on horseback, and did not arrive at the gate of Liangwu City until dusk, only to find that the city gate had been closed.

"Who are you?" asked the garrison soldier on the city wall, who had recently ordered the gates to be closed at sunset, as the situation on the border had been tense lately.

"General Luo's deputy general Wei came to Liangwu City. Without waiting for Wei Xiwan to answer in person, Tang Feng raised his head and roared upward.

"Open the door!" When the soldiers defending the city heard this, they immediately ordered the city gate to be opened and let them go.

"General Wei, Lord Luo has arrived three days ago, and I tell you to go and see him as soon as you arrive. A soldier ran over, saw Wei Xiwan's token, confirmed his identity, and respectfully confessed.

"Okay, I see. Wei Xiwan nodded.

She fainted inexplicably in her courtyard, but when she woke up, she found that it was already three days later, because of the delay in the time that she had set off that day, General Luo, who had come with her, was ordered to take the first step, and it happened to be three days earlier than her to arrive in Liangwu City.

So far, Wei Xiwan can't understand why he fainted that day, and the imperial doctor didn't say why he came after inspecting it, only saying that it might be because he didn't rest well enough.

But she clearly remembered her sudden extreme sadness, but in fact, now that she thinks about it, she didn't even have this on the day of Wang Chengchen's wedding, and this time she was so heartbroken that she fainted, she really couldn't figure it out.

"Let's go, let's go into the city!" Wei Xi came back to her senses late, and couldn't figure out what to do, now that she had arrived in Liangwu City unharmed, she definitely couldn't let him down.

After arranging Yun Ji's place to stay, Wei Xi hurried to meet General Luo in the evening.

The night has completely covered the entire Liangwu City, this city is in the same geographical environment as the Panjiao City in Xiyue, and the Nancheng Capital City is almost midsummer, but the wind blowing at night here still has a trace of coolness.

"General Luo, Wei Xiwan was ordered to come. A soft voice came from outside the door.

Luo Zhengyi tracing the tip of the map for a moment, and said in a deep voice: "Come in." ”

The door was slowly pushed open, the cool breeze was slightly rising, and the dress was fluttering. As soon as he looked up, Luo Zhengyi saw this woman who was personally named by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and asked her to come over to be his deputy staff general standing in front of him.

He had always wondered what kind of mighty woman was arranged to such an unstable place as the border, but he never thought that it was such a weak little woman. Although she has a national talent, but other than that, he doesn't see anything special about her.

"Subordinates, see General Luo. Wei Xiwan bowed his head slightly without being humble or arrogant, and then looked up at Luo Zhengyi, who had been looking at her since she entered the door.

This is the person she must obey here, a man who looks about forty years old, with the strong physique and calm face of a martial arts practitioner, it is said that he has made a lot of military exploits, and can be arranged here by the crown prince Wang Chengchen, he must have a certain ability.

"It's the first time General Wei has come to the border city, and the journey has gone smoothly?" Luo Zhengyi carefully looked at Wei Xiwan, then continued to lower his head and asked seriously while tracing the map.

"The journey went smoothly, thank you General Luo for your concern. Wei Xiwan replied softly, and when he saw Luo Zhengyi's drawings on the drawing table, he couldn't help but take two steps closer and asked, "General Luo, is this a map of Panjiao City?"

"Yes, Shen Tucang arrived in Panjiao City, the city is extremely heavily guarded, and it is not easy to find out the situation inside, my map ...... I can only know a little bit about it. Luo Zhengyi sighed, thinking that he was going to confront Shen Tucang, he really felt powerless.

He wanted to arrange for someone to enter Panjiao City to investigate, but the guards at the city gate were too strict to check, and even whether there was a callus on his hand with a sword, and any of his soldiers would not have a little callus on his hand. Even if you are lucky enough to get in, you can't go into the army to find out the situation, and you can say that you come back with nothing.

"I don't know if it will be easier for a woman to enter the city?" Wei Xiwan's faint sentence made Luo Zhengyi's eyes instantly show surprise.

It's not that he hasn't thought about it, but there are no women in the army at all, and ordinary women don't have the ability and courage at all. Since Wei Xiwan is a person arranged by His Royal Highness the Prince, she will never be useless, and besides, the words and indifferent expression of the woman in front of her are enough to make him believe that she has this courage.

"Is it easier, is General Wei willing to go?" Luo Zhengyi put down the pen in his hand and looked straight at her.

Wei Xiwan replied with a smile: "Of course." ”

The sun awakened the sleeping Liangwu City, and wisps of cooking smoke rose, looking calm and peaceful.

"Do you really want to come with me?" asked Wei Xi as he walked around and turned back again.

"Hmm. Yun Ji carried the burden on her back and looked at Wei Xiwan who turned around and nodded seriously. She has nowhere else to go, and she doesn't have an identity to stay in the army, so why not follow Wei Xiwan to Panjiao City, and the two of them also have a companion.

"Well, be careful all the time. Seeing her firm attitude, Wei Xi no longer persuaded her to go back, but instead advised: "Remember, if something happens to me, you should not know me." ”

In case of an accident and his identity is exposed, Wei Xiwan's martial arts are enough to protect himself and escape, but Yun Ji does not know martial arts, and only by making a clear relationship with her can he have a way out.

“...... Good. Yun Ji hesitated to agree.

She is not a person who can steal her life, and this person can be regarded as her savior, how can she dissociate herself from her regardless of her life or death, but if she doesn't agree, Wei Xiwan won't take her to go with her, so she has to agree first.

"Alright, let's go. ”

The two stunning women were dressed plainly, and they entered Panjiao City in a low-key and easy manner, and Wei Xi arranged Yun Ji in an inconspicuous inn in Panjiao City at night, and went to the street by himself.

The streets are very lively, no different from the usual street market, not at all like a border city with a sudden increase of a thousand war horses, countless heavy troops, and a war that may break out at any time.

Wei Xiwan looked at some gadgets on the street that he had never seen before, picked up a few casually and looked at them, and the familiar scene suddenly came to mind.

"Master......" Wei Xiwan muttered with a lost soul, put down the things in his hand, raised his left hand to look at the Daze Spirit Stone that he had been wearing on his hand, and gently stroked it with his right hand.

When she went down the mountain to Tongxian for the first time and secretly ran out to play on the street, the master used the Daze Spirit Stone to call her back, and now that so much time has passed, there is still no news from the master.

Wei Xiwan's expression was a little gloomy, and he sighed in his heart, wanting to turn around and leave this small stall and walk around again, but when he turned around, he almost bumped into an oncoming person.

Chen ...... Chen Luo!"
