The night was dark, and there were only a few people left in the inn. Liu Baitong's Dongxuanjiang Lake this night should also be calmed down here.

Jiang Wangchen saw him say goodbye to the audience at the inn, so he also silently followed behind him, and when Liu Baitong walked out of the inn, he stopped him at the corner alley where no one was around, and said, "Brother Liu, please stay and ......."

Liu Baitong remembered Jiang Wangchen and said with a smile: "This is not the little brother in the inn, is there something wrong?"

"Brother Liu, I want to ask if what you just said about the border city is true? So is He Cong really transformed by the Baiyan Lizard?"

Liu Baitong couldn't help frowning, and said: "Although I, Liu Baitong, am not a well-known and powerful figure in Yancheng, my self-cultivation and reputation are also famous, and I am definitely not the kind of slanderous villain who speaks without evidence. Besides, how can the military news be a casual joke, that day Cao Li killed this fake He Cong with a knife, and as soon as He Cong died, the corpse was restored to the appearance of a hundred lizards, which was something that many officers and soldiers present had seen with their own eyes. ”

"So how did you find out about it? Jiang Wangchen ignored his fuss and asked.

Liu Baitong looked at Jiang Wangchen with strange eyes, and said unhappily: "I, Liu Baitong, naturally have my own channels, this little brother inquires about what this does." ”

"Brother Liu, you misunderstood, I just want to know about the current situation in the border city, because I have a friend who is the border city demon army. The younger brother was very worried about his safety, so he asked a few more questions. After the invasion of the demon clan, what was the situation of casualties in the border city? ”

"This little brother may not know something, anyone who asks me Liu Baitong for news, I will usually charge some information fees, you know, it is not easy for me to collect intelligence......" Liu Baitong said, seeing that Jiang Wangchen was about to take out money from the money bag, he hurriedly waved his hand to stop him: "But there are exceptions, the little brother's friend is the border city demon army, no matter how unreasonable I Liu Baitong is, I also know that a gentleman loves money and takes it in a good way." ”

Jiang Wangchen saw that Liu Baitong was so refreshing, so he buckled the money bag back to his belt: "Thank you Brother Liu for taking it." ”

"But Brother Liu, I have been talking in the inn all night, and my mouth is already dry, if I have some silver taels to buy some tea......" Liu Baizhi was like a mountain road tactfully, with a righteous and awe-inspiring look on his face, and then looked at his slightly raised hand, the index finger and thumb of his right hand rubbed rapidly, and the meaning was obvious.

"Uh...... This slave mouth is really a dog-like dog who clings to money......" Jiang Wangchen couldn't help but slander a swear word, and took out some broken silver from the money bag again.

Liu Baitong accepted the silver two, grinned, and said: "The casualties of the Demon Imperial Army, I have to say, it is very heavy, according to my friends of the Demon Imperial Army in the border city, when the demon clan invaded the border city that day, he first assembled in the Dongdu Mountain, and he was patrolling above the gate of the border city, and saw the Dongdu Mountain from a distance, there was dust and smoke everywhere like thousands of troops and horses stepping over, and there was a galloping sound like a stormy wave crashing on the shore, and then take a closer look...... The mountains and forests were densely packed with demon beasts, which scared him to the point of chilling on the spot! Moreover, there was also a Baiyan Lizard in the border city in the border city, and only the border city of recruits was able to barely hold on, which was already amazing, as for the casualties, let alone it, it was already good to survive one or two. ”

Liu Baitong said, also sighing for a long time, full of emotion: "They are all young and good Erlang......"

When Jiang Wangchen heard this result, he couldn't help but be stunned, and his heart was full of remorse, if he was wanted that day, even if he was arrested, he would have to tell the truth, maybe the situation would not have developed so uncontrollably. Thinking of the pickers who were ambushed on the edge of the city that day, it turned out that they were not to arrest themselves at all, but to prevent themselves from entering the city and being arrested, the more I thought about it at this moment, the more I realized that Cao Li had already arranged everything.

Thinking of Cao Li, Jiang Wangchen continued to ask, "Then what is Cao Li's current situation?"

Liu Baitong replied: "You know, I am a very principled ......"

Jiang Wangchen didn't wait for him to finish, and then put another piece of broken silver on the palm of his hand that he had just opened as he spoke.

"Since Brother Jiang is so refreshing, then Liu Baitong knows everything and says everything. Liu Baitong checked the broken silver in his hand, a little heavy, and his eyes narrowed into a slit with a smile, and said: "You know, fighting a war is the same as defending the city, you can't be without an owner for a day, Cao Li exposed the conspiracy of the Baiyan lizard, and led the border city sergeant to repel the demon clan, naturally he has the highest prestige in the army, and he is deeply supported, and he was originally the vice captain of the border city elite team, and now He Commander is sacrificed, and the whereabouts of the criminal captain are unknown, this side of the city naturally has Cao Li to take over the command, and this time he has made such a great achievement, this' The three words of Commander Cao', just wait for the letter to be written, and you can sit down. ”

After Liu Baitong finished speaking, he turned to look at Jiang Wangchen, he had a habit, that is, after explaining the news that the other party wanted to inquire, he would seriously appreciate the joys, sorrows, and sorrows presented by the other party's expression, so that he could see the joys and sorrows of the world like a supreme being. But he was good at observing words and colors, but this time he couldn't understand the pair of eyes in Jiang Wangchen's expressionless face, like a solemn night, with only a few scattered stars. Even when saying goodbye to himself, he said, "Brother Liu, I think if you become a storyteller, you will definitely be more brilliant." "It's all plain as water. But what does it matter, as long as the other party is generous enough, that is the best return, as for the attitude...... Whatever, he can't change the wine anyway.

The deserted corners of the streets, dark and silent, as far as the eye can see, is dark, Jiang Wangchen has been independent for a long time, his thoughts are heavy, even if the three thousand troubles have been lifted by the headband, but they are still floating in every piece of thought, he knows that he is carrying the mission, but this mission is too heavy, his unplump wings are very tired, he knows what he should do, he knows better what he wants to do, but he has no choice.

The night breeze was gently rubbing, rubbing the man's face, just as the woman in the inn said that he was a young man, and he grew up without a choice.

Growth is still good after all, even if it is often accompanied by loss, but such a mature self will better protect the beauty cherished in the heart. At least Jiang Wangchen has learned it now, hasn't he......

A faint fragrance slowly drifted away in the streets and alleys with gusts of night wind, falling on the dim corners where no one was around, falling on the frost and dew slowly condensing under the night, and also falling on a certain thought in Jiang Wangchen's mind. The purple shirt is still so beautiful in the dark night wind, and the light in those eyes is gentle. Hua Youyou stood quietly beside Jiang Wangchen like this, if he didn't want to speak, she didn't have to ask more, so she naturally accompanied her speechlessly, which seemed to be agreed, a natural tacit understanding.

I'm afraid that one more sound will be noisy, and I'm afraid that another action will be disturbing. Therefore, the wind has stopped, the frost has dispersed, and the thoughts have quietly ceased from prosperity to nothingness.

Only Jiang Wangchen smiled quietly and said, "You're here." ”

Hua's faint smile was also shallow, and she replied quietly: "I saw that you have not returned for a long time, so I have come to look for you." ”

"Let's go, the night breeze is cold, let's go back to the inn first......"

Hua Youyou followed Jiang Wangchen closely, looking at the back in front of him, as if he had become more upright again, and walked through the night unhurriedly.

Hua Youyou asked, "Then what are your plans next?"

"I'm going to go back to the border city. After Jiang Wangchen finished speaking, he suddenly stopped, turned to look at Hua Youyou, and looked serious and focused: "Hua Youyou, or let's separate, I am not sure about the next road, and I dare not drag you down." ”

"Jiang Wangchen! I'm not afraid...... As long as I'm with you, it's all right! I may not be as strong as you think, but I can be brave enough to go with the flow. Hua Youyou avoided Jiang Wangchen's gaze, she was afraid that once she met Jiang Wangchen's sincere gaze, she would be willing to listen to him for everything, she changed to the usual frolicking way, went to Jiang Wangchen's side, and said with a smile: "Besides, didn't you promise me that you would always accompany me." ”

Jiang Wangchen stumbled, and his legs were a little weak. After regaining his footing, facing the eight-sided delicate flowers, he didn't choose to compromise for the first time, and said: "This trip to the border city, listen to me first no matter what." I see that Cao Li has such a layout, and he has the intention to return my innocence and will not hurt me, but if he sees you, I can't predict what he will do. ”

Hua Youyou saw that Jiang Wangchen was so stubborn, and she also knew that he was worried about it, so she could only give in: "Then you promise that a person will not act impulsively, and everything must not be forced, and promise me to come back intact." ”

At this time, Hua Youyou dared to look at Jiang Wangchen's gaze, looking at each other, full of sincere expectations and touch.

Jiang Wangchen nodded, smiled and promised: "Don't worry! You can prepare a lot of wine and meat and wait for me to come back!"

"I want to take advantage of your trip to the border city to send the spirit bamboo beasts back to the demon realm. Hua Youyu and his eyebrows fluttered: "In this way, if whoever returns to Yancheng first, who will prepare wine and food for Ling Yi in this inn, what do you think?"

Jiang Wangchen laughed brightly and said, "Very good!"
