At night, the cold wind whipped at the cabin. The shrill wind whistled through the chimneys of the huts, like lonely ghosts searching for their past home in the woods.

Ji Kang'er woke up in the middle of the night, listened to the wind, and it was difficult to fall asleep......

The thick curtain of the door was pounding on the door of the wooden house, as if someone was outside screaming frantically.

Driven by curiosity, Ji Kang'er put on her clothes and jumped out of bed, walked out of the small room, and went straight to the dining hall.

He crept to the gate and tried to open it, but unfortunately the door was frozen with ice.

Ji Kang'er exerted all her strength, but the wooden door did not move. A deep voice came from behind him: "The snow is too thick outside, this door is open outward." ”

Ji Kang'er was startled and turned around suddenly, it turned out to be a veteran who cooked during the day.

"Big-uncle-haven't slept so late?" Ji Kang'er had an embarrassed expression.

The veteran replied, "Boy, don't come out and run around so late. ”

Ji Kang'er was just about to ask why, but saw that the veteran's face was pale, and he was not as friendly as during the day.

"Uh-uh-uh, I just want to pee-"

"Pee, there's a night pot in the room!" the veteran turned and swerved up the attic. Ji Kang'er was left to stand in place stupidly for a long time.

A few days ago, he could still rely on the face of the son of a general to call for wind and rain. But in this barren land, the Great Wall in the north, except for the old Feng Nian and the general who gave Ji Kang'er some face, it seems that no one takes him seriously. The phoenix had to fall into the chicken nest and let others "slaughter" it.

Ji Kang'er stared dryly in place, and when he was about to slip back to the room, he saw the guy poke his head out of the attic, and quickly shrank back like a ghost.

Ji Kang'er passed by Lao Feng's room, Lao Feng didn't even close the door, and a strong smell of wine wafted out of the room, he was sleeping on his back and not waking up, his head hanging on the edge of the bed, Ji Kang'er took a lot of effort to put his head on the head of the bed......

Curiosity killed the cat, and Ji Kang'er walked out of Lao Feng's house with steps. He held his breath, scaled his steps, and pricked up his ears, trying to catch the conversation in the innermost room in the attic.

However, he heard nothing but the buzz.

In addition to the sound of wind and snow outside the house, only Lao Feng's snoring came and went.

The chopsticks on the table also seemed to be asleep, and the unburned charcoal heads in the stove emitted the last trace of heat under the layers of wood ash.

He climbed up the stairs that the veteran had just walked up to the attic. Through the gap between the wooden planks on the wooden door, Ji Kang'er saw two figures shaking in the attic, but these two figures did not quite look like the old soldier and the shopkeeper.

Suddenly, in the depths of the attic, a conversation between two strangers and a veteran came out.

Ji Kang'er stopped, carefully distinguished, and thought to himself: No, there are not only two people in this attic, but at least four people.

The buzzing sound is as thin as a mosquito and a fly, but who is I, Ji Kang'er, I have learned to listen to the wind and hide from my father since I was a child, and I have more or less practiced a good ear, Ji Kang'er secretly boasted.

"General Feng is downstairs, I see you are still hiding here, wait for this snowstorm to stop before leaving!" It was the veteran, and he kept his hoarse voice to the brim.

"No, we have to leave tonight, and we can't delay for a moment. Someone had to inform the general about this news as soon as possible...... This is about the lives of thousands of people in the Great Zhou......" a young voice said eagerly.

"Let's listen to his old man, the snow is too big to find the way. The other voice was slightly immature, as if to persuade his companion.

The veteran said: "It is estimated that the snow will stop during the day tomorrow, and after the snow stops, General Feng will definitely continue to go north, and after they leave, it will not be too late for you to leave." ”

"Or, let's be honest with General Feng! The night watchman escaped from the Great Wall without permission and returned to the land without permission, which is a serious crime! If he is caught, he will be severely punished, and he will never want to leave this place where he does not lay eggs for the rest of his life. The young voice was persuading.

It seems that they are in a hurry to reveal some secrets at the risk of violating military discipline. What puzzled Ji Kang'er was what secret was worth their risk. He didn't even want to explain to his superior, Lao Feng?!Ji Kang'er thought about it while eavesdropping.

The young man snorted and said, "Don't quarrel with you, let me be quiet." ”

Suddenly, the door of the attic was pushed open with a "squeak-" and a boy no more than three or two years older than Ji Kang'er came out. The boy bent over his waist and looked nervously around.

Ji Kang'er reacted quickly, jumped up the moment before the attic door was opened, grabbed the edge of the wooden plank of the staircase with both hands, and hung under the staircase.

Ji Kang'er thought that the other party hadn't found out, who would have thought that his fingers would reveal his traces.

The young man's nervous face suddenly relaxed, and he shouted, "Who are you? Come out, I already see you." You're just hiding under the stairs, and if you don't come out, I'll crush your fingers. ”

As he spoke, the young man had already walked to the floor slab that Ji Kang'er was grasping.

Ji Kang'er exerted his arm, turned over and took off, and landed on the stairs again.

The young man was blinded by Ji Kang'er's performance, and mistakenly thought that he was extraordinary, so he took two steps back like an electric shock, raised his hands in front of his chest, and put on a defensive posture.

"Hehe, it's still a chick!" The young man smiled and looked Ji Kang'er up and down, Ji Kang'er's white skin was already frostbitten, and from this, the young man concluded that he was obviously coming to this extremely cold place for the first time.

"Brother is the first time I've been to this cold place in the north. I came out to pee and didn't hear anything. Ji Kang'er showed a naïve look and tried to prevaricate.

The veteran came out and shouted, "Boy, why are you still there?"

"The night pot is full. Ji Kang'er pretended to be embarrassed and bowed her head and said.

The young man laughed: "Hahaha, they all say that fools laugh a lot, and lazy people pee a lot, I have never seen such a white cheeky skin as you!" The young man saw that his mocking words made Ji Kang'er's clenched fist loosen in discouragement, and he became even more unscrupulous.

Even the fireman of the Ji family's army, if he moves the real character, he can defeat Ji Kang'er in two moves. At this time, not to mention that Ji Kang'er was facing well-trained night watchmen, and there were more than one or two.

Looking at the current situation, he will definitely suffer, Ji Kang'er smiled knowingly, and did not dare to hit it hard.

"Stop, Zhao Gou'er, don't forget what we're all doing tonight!" the veteran whispered to the young man.

"Friend, come in and talk. Another voice came from the attic.

Ji Kang'er finally saw the hope of reconciliation, he gladly accepted the invitation and followed Zhao Gou'er and the veteran into the room in the attic.

The furnishings in the room are more elaborate than downstairs, and there is a smoking incense burner on the primary color wood grain coffee table, and four celadon teacups are being poured with hot tea.

The simple knife standing next to the coffee table is particularly eye-catching, Ji Kang'er's eyes are unconsciously attracted by this knife, the handle is made of fifteen keels, and I am afraid that there is only one in the world.

It's been eight years, it's been eight years, others can forget this dragon bone glaive knife, but he, Ji Kang'er, will never forget!

Obviously, the person who invited him in was the new owner of this knife, who was the other, why was the eldest brother's knife by his side?

There were two primary-colored wooden chairs on both sides of the coffee table, and the owner of the Pu Dao sitting on the chair farthest from the door had already noticed the look of the young man who had fallen on the dragon bone glaive after entering the door, and he had many questions in his heart since then.

For a while, neither of them knew the details of the other, and neither of them would speak first.

The owner of Pu Dao nodded and smiled indifferently at Ji Kang'er and motioned for him to sit down.

After Ji Kang'er sat down, the owner of Pu Dao spoke with an authentic southern accent and scolded Zhao Gou'er in a low voice: "What are you going out for?!"

Zhao Gou'er smelled the dissatisfaction of the owner of Pu Dao, and walked around the coffee table in annoyance, and sat on a big bed angrily.

At the other end of the bed is sitting the shopkeeper "hairy monkey". Ever since Ji Kang'er entered the house, he has been staring at Ji Kang'er intently.

The old soldier stood there against the door frame, really looking like a veteran ruffian, and his face was even more ugly than just now.

The owner of Pu Dao poured Ji Kang'er a cup of tea. He is much calmer and more sophisticated than the Zhao Gou'er just now, and he is more sophisticated than the veteran and the guy Mao Monkey.

Ji Kang'er's fair-skinned appearance, dress, and staring at Park Dao after entering the door. has made him have a little guess about Ji Kang'er's origin.

Master Pu Dao took a sip of kung fu tea and said to Ji Kang'er slowly: "This brother, I'm afraid he is a friend of the old man, right? In this case, no matter what you just heard, I advise you not to meddle in your affairs, let alone alarm the drunk man who is traveling with you." After drinking this cup of tea for a while, I honestly went back to the house to pee on you and sleep on you. When I finish my important business, I will come back to talk to my brother about my old friend. As he spoke, the master of the Pu Dao glanced at the Dragon Bone Glaive beside him.

He turned his head sideways and said to the hairy monkey, "Brother Lao, go and get another night pot for this little brother." ”

Ji Kang'er thought to herself: Oh! Not only did you take the knife of my boss Ji, but you also seemed to be doing something unseemly to kill people and sell goods. Hmph, bump into me, you're unlucky!

He calculated, if he fought with these four people, how long could his hard-working, knowledgeable trick last, and how much noise would he have to make to wake up Lao Feng below to come to "rescue"?

Ji Kangxin said: Hehe, I really want to have a "meat don't skimp" today and make a big fuss. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but smile evilly.

Ji Kang'er took a sip of tea and returned the salute: "Good tea." So he got up and left.

The moment he walked to the front of the room, his face suddenly changed, he turned his head, and said to the owner of the Pu Dao: "What is the old man who is not the old man, I am really in charge of this idle matter today!"

When the four of them heard this, their eyes widened......

The veteran held the pig iron rod tightly in his hand, Zhao Gou'er turned around and raised his sword on his side, and the shopkeeper "Mao Monkey" also pulled out a scimitar from under the bedding...... The owner of the Pu knife frowned, waved his right hand vigorously, and the three of them attacked at the same time, and a pack of wolves pounced.

Ji Kang'er has been walking the rivers and lakes for many years, and he is so desperate to escape, when he is speaking, he has already kicked hard with his left foot, and his right foot wants to be on the wall, and he jumped up and blew out the oil lamp.

The attic was suddenly plunged into darkness, the place was small, and the five of them immediately rolled into a ball.
