However.

Chen Yin and the others walked along the water all the way, without any hindrance, and they didn't even see anyone chasing after them.

It's not that they've been prepared for it, it's that there's a new situation in Shanghu City.

Just after Xingji gave the order, he received an urgent report - the spies outside had discovered the whereabouts of Bai Wusi and others.

"Are you sure they're coming this way?" Xing Ji frowned slightly, this day of accidents kept upsetting her.

"Yes, I was ordered to monitor Dinghua Mountain, and soon after seeing them captured, the Central Plains Imperial Court sent people and led them down Dinghua Mountain, and then several factions of people came all the way to this side. ”

"This has just experienced the battle of the Dinghua faction, and he has become a prisoner," Xingji was a little puzzled, "They didn't go back to rest, they actually rushed here non-stop, how powerful is it......"

"That's not the case, in fact, each of them seems to be injured to varying degrees, and their mental state is not good, it is estimated that the imperial court insisted on letting them come here to deal with us. ”

Hearing this, Xing Ji immediately asked the people who had been ordered before not to be busy leaving, and then she lowered her head and sorted out her thoughts.

"Did Liang Ye send someone to inform you, where are those people now?"

"Not yet, they have just left Dinghua Mountain for hundreds of miles now. ””

"Okay, don't inform them, don't let them know the slightest bit about this," Xingji thought of a way, "Leave two or three people in Shanghu City and Rongcheng tonight, and then gather all the remaining people and follow me to preemptively strike." ”

"Wang Ye and Chen Yin, their ......"

"No matter, it's the prince's business if something goes wrong," Xing Ji was full of energy right now, "Anyway, we only act according to the orders of the lord of the country." ”

"Yes...... However, "the man was embarrassed," the lord of the kingdom ordered us to help defend the city, and not to take the initiative to repel the enemy. ”

"Who said we're going to fight them off," Xing Ji grinned, "We're going to 'invite' them into Lake City." ”

"Lord Xinghime, we can't let the city fall until the lord of the country gives the order!"

"Look, you're talking like I'm crazy right now, I know what I'm doing, just do what I say. "Xing Ji seems to have a chance to win.

"Why don't you wait until the prince comes back to discuss it?" But the others were not so confident.

"By the time he appears, those people will already be outside Shanghu City, rest and eat well, and then they will wait for the siege," Xingji had decided, "You go and prepare first, and gather in front of the city gate at midnight." ”

The boatman took Chen Yin and them down the river, passed through the secluded mountains and forests, and landed safely on the bank of the river.

There is no obvious road around, except for the flowers and plants that are boundless dirt as far as the eye can see.

"Where is this," Yingli asked the boatman, who had not spoken from beginning to end, "in what direction should we go to the country of horses?"

The boatman pointed ahead with his oars, but still without saying anything, he just rowed back.

No matter how Yingli shouted, the boatman didn't pay attention to it, and soon disappeared into the mountains and forests.

She complained: "In this wilderness, there is no official road, and the ghost knows where to go to the Eastern Desert." ”

"The boatman was referring to that side just now," Chanyu said, "let's go in that direction." ”

Luckily, the road is muddy, but it's not too difficult to walk.

It's just that after this journey, I'm afraid that the three of them will be no different from beggars.

"What did you say to that Liang Ye, it took so long?"

At this moment, the three of them were also bored walking on the road, and Yingli suddenly remembered such a question.

"It's not just Liang Ye, I also met Lord Lin," Chen Yin walked in front and probed the depths for them, "Liang Ye's side, I asked him to take care of his subordinates, and then let him know that Tianluozhuang is not really standing in the same boat as them, don't expect the people of Tianluozhuang to control the behavior of his subordinates, and after that, I met the prince, and he said that Tianluozhuang has obtained five soul jade ......"

"That means we don't have to go to Beiyuan City at all," Chanyu's idea was exactly the same as Chen Yin's original, "Yingli's sister has been released?"

"Why are we still suffering from this sin? "Yingli's shoes are all covered in mud.

"It's not that simple. Chen Yin relayed the previous conversation with the prince to the two of them.

Yingli was a little displeased when she heard this: "This Beiyuan City is also enough, the huge palace, Tianluozhuang, and the Star Covering Tower, there is no one who perceives the derivation......"

"That's not right," Chanyu thought of something, "There is no shortage of girls with perceptual derivation in the Star Covering Tower. ”

Chen Yin stopped, looking confused: "Then why did the prince say that......

"I'm afraid he wants us to continue to Beiyuan City," Chan Yu thought for a while and said, "He is afraid that after we are sure that the person we want to save can save themselves, he will not go to the Eastern Desert." ”

"They are really 'hospitable'. Yingli kicked hard and shook off the mud on Chen Yin's back.

Qi Feng has been treated as a guest since he was confined to the palace.

She has her own special garden, but she can only move freely in the garden, and she can't take a step at will.

"I don't want any reward, but I hope that the lord of the kingdom will keep his promise and let me go. ”

Qi Feng declined the treasure offered by Lin Yuanlong.

"This king went to the Star Tower, and what the girl said is true, and this little gadget is only as a thanks, not a reward. Lin Yuanlong asked his subordinates to move things directly into Qi Feng's house.

Whether it is a reward or a thanks, it is just a play on words, and Qi Feng doesn't care about it now.

"Lord, I can sense that there are not a few perceptual derivators in Beiyuan City, why do you want me to stay and find a rift for you?"

"Shangguan Chishui is afraid that he will not sincerely find a crack for this king," the lord of the country sighed and said, "My younger brother said that he moved a lot of people around this king to prevent this king from entering these five soul jades. ”
