Fortunately, the people in the rivers and lakes downstairs didn't make much noise, and after they finished eating, they asked Xiao Er to arrange a room and go to rest.

When the whole inn fell silent, just after midnight, the inn was ready to close, leaving only a vigil junior to guard at the counter in the lobby downstairs.

A few people came in sporadically in the back, but they didn't make much noise. Maybe it was because the road was too bumpy a few days ago, so this night, Yun Yao and the others slept very deeply and more steadily, after all, those people didn't come for them.

However, Gu Qingming was the opposite, he and Achen kept the first half of the night and the second half of the night respectively, but when it was his turn to sleep, he couldn't sleep well. Because he has too many things in his heart, there are always some worries about his family and the country.

I don't know how long time has passed, Gu Qingming finally couldn't bear the sleepiness of the waves and fell asleep.

When he opened his eyes again, it was already dawn, and although it was already September, the bright morning sun was still dazzling, casting from the sunset on the horizon, shrouding the vast land.

Just after the hour, Gu Qingming finished washing, packed his bags, and went to the next room to knock on the door. In just a few moments, Yun Yao opened the door and let him in.

"It's over, and I'm still wondering if I'm going to wake you up. Yun Yao smiled, "But you're probably very tired, so you'll wake up later than usual." ”

"I slept late yesterday and couldn't fall asleep for a long time. Gu Qingming said, although his words were unknown, but from the little cyan in the corner of his eyes, it could be seen that he really didn't sleep well.

"General Gu, you've worked the way. When Lu Yingquan heard the conversation between the two, he also walked over and said, his eyes full of gratitude.

When they first left Yiguo Ci'en Temple, in order not to attract attention, they only brought a few people with them, and because of this, everyone had more things to do. In order to protect their safety, Gu Qingming and A Chen hardly had a good night's sleep, and Yun Yao and Sisi also did their best to take care of Lu Yingquan and did not dare to slack off in the slightest.

"Madame is polite, this is a matter for subordinates. Gu Qingming said to Lu Yingquan, then raised his head, and wanted everyone to pack up and leave, but he didn't see Sisi, so he asked, "Where did Miss Sisi go?"

"This girl woke up the earliest, and got up before the hour, saying that she wanted to borrow the kitchen of the inn to make some snacks and take them. Lu Yingquan said, "Sisi's craftsmanship is also good, much more delicious than the dry food bought outside, so I let her go." ”

"Mao Shi?" Gu Qingming was stunned, "But now that the hour has passed, it has been two hours, why hasn't the dim sum been finished yet?"

Hearing Gu Qingming mention it, Yun Yao also felt that something was wrong. At this point, there should be no one in the inn, so the kitchen of the inn must not have started yet, and it can be used directly without waiting. It's been two hours, and she hasn't come back yet, and she hasn't even shown her face, which is a little strange.

It's just that Yun Yao and Lu Yingquan had been packing their luggage before, waiting for Gu Qingming to get up, so they ignored the silk downstairs for a while, and always felt that there should be no problem with Achen in the dark.

"Go down and take a look!" Yun Yao reacted, turned around and ran outside, at this moment, the panic in her heart had made her lose her previous calm and self-control.

Sisi is also a rare right-hand man for Lu Yingquan, and the temptations and doubts of the past have been transformed into deep friendship in this day-to-day relationship. Although Sisi usually respects Lu Yingquan and admires Yun Yao, Yun Yao and Yingquan have never treated her as an outsider.

So now that she finds out that something is wrong, Yun Yao is more anxious than anyone else.

"If you want to go, I'll go, you just stay in the room! I won't come back, I'm not allowed to go anywhere!" Gu Qingming took Yun Yao's hand, took Yun Yao's hand, took it back, said categorically, and then turned around and went out.

This was probably the first time Gu Qingming had spoken to Yun Yao in such a tough tone, although he was no longer spoiled in the past, Yun Yao could hear the worry and anxiety in his heart.

Before Yun Yao could say anything, Gu Qingming's figure disappeared around the corner of the corridor.

Closing the door, the two waited for Gu Qingming to come back. The more time passed, the more uneasy they felt in their hearts, similar to last night, but the mood was noticeably different.

The waiting time was always long, and as time passed, Yun Yao even Gu Qingming became worried.

"Sisi is going to be fine, right? I'm getting more and more uneasy, she's been with me for a long time, and she's one of the few people I can trust in this world, I really don't want anything to happen to her. Lu Yingquan said a little nervously.

When the words fell, Gu Qingming pushed the door in, his face was solemn, and he said to the two of them: "I have searched all the places in the inn, and Sisi is not downstairs at all." The flour and raisins she used to make the snacks were still on the stove, and before she could start making them, she was gone. ”

"What?" Lu Yingquan was shocked, "In other words, not long after Sisi went downstairs, the person disappeared, but we didn't notice it at all?"

"Sisi won't leave on her own for no reason. She grew up in Yiwang Palace since she was a child, and she never went out to wander, so she wouldn't take the initiative to leave by herself, maybe ...... She was taken away. Yun Yao thought about it carefully, then raised her head, looked at Gu Qingming, and asked, "Have you asked the shopkeeper?"

"You and I went somewhere. Gu Qingming said, "I have already inquired with the shopkeeper, and the only people who checked out between Mao Shi and Chenshi were those Jianghu people last night, and Sisi was also absent during that time, Xiao Er thought that Sisi had returned to the room, so he didn't care." Now it seems that Sisi is very likely to have been taken away by those Jianghu people. ”

"Didn't you say that those people in the rivers and lakes had always been chivalrous and righteous, how could they still do such a thing?" Lu Yingquan couldn't help but be angry, "What should I do now?"

Lu Yingquan was worried about Sisi, her mood fluctuated too much, and her stomach was a little uncomfortable, but she frowned and endured it and didn't show it, because she didn't want Yun Yao to be distracted by her.

"The people in this world are inherently mixed, and it is not uncommon for a few scum to be mixed in among the people of the rivers and lakes. Gu Qingming said in a deep voice, "Since these people are all participating in the martial arts competition of the king side by side, then if we want to find the silk girl, we can only follow them to the capital of Jingguo." If we're lucky, we'll be able to catch up with them halfway, and if we're unlucky, we'll be able to find out Sisi's whereabouts when we reach the Jingguo capital. ”

"Then go to the capital of Jingguo!" Lu Yingquan said without hesitation, "Sisi is loyal and affectionate to me, I can't just abandon her." No matter what, if you live to see people die, you must see corpses!"

Hearing this, Yun Yao turned her head to look at Lu Yingquan, and a chuckle appeared on the corner of her mouth.

Sure enough, Yingquan is still the affectionate and righteous Yingquan, and she will definitely spare no effort to repay others if she is a good person. The strife and ruthless time in the palace did not wear out the conscience and goodwill in her heart.

"Then let's set off now and go to the capital of Jingguo, maybe we can catch up with them. Yun Yao said, turned around and went to the bedside to take a few baggage, and everyone hurried downstairs, found the shopkeeper to settle the account, and left.

The original five people were reduced to four, so everyone's mood was a little heavy, and they all seemed to be upset by Sisi's disappearance.

Especially Gu Qingming, since he left the inn, his brows have been wrinkled and have not been released.

Yun Yao wanted to open the carriage curtain, looked at Gu Qingming's back, thought about it, and then poked Ah Chen's back, signaled Ah Chen to leave for a while, and gave her the position in front of the carriage.

Ah Chen nodded, indicating that he understood, and then took off into the air and flew out, his body was incredibly fast, and he quickly disappeared in front of Yun Yao.

Yun Yao settled Lu Yingquan and ensured that she sat firmly and did not bumpy, so she got out and sat next to Gu Qingming and drove the carriage with him.

Said to be together, in fact, Yun Yao didn't know how to drive at all, she sat next to her, feeling the carriage galloping, and the houses and small vendors on both sides of the road kept sweeping behind her, which was actually different.

After a long time, Yun Yao asked, "Qingming, are you worried about the alliance? Are you afraid that if we rashly change our route to the capital of Jingguo, we won't have time to reach the Jade Kingdom within the scheduled time and form an alliance with His Royal Highness the Jade King?"

"So you can see it?" Gu Qingming turned his head and chuckled, and said, "I don't know what happened to Your Highness's side, although I know that Miss Sisi's life is very important, but I don't know how to explain it after I go back, if I miss His Highness's great cause." ”

"Actually, you don't have to think about it so much. Yun Yao said, "You are a general who marches and fights, and it is very useless to let you protect us, this time we changed our plan willfully, and you can't stop us, right? What's more, the planned itinerary to go to the Jade Country is set by us, and it is not arranged by His Highness, even if it is a day or two late, what does it matter? Anyway, His Highness does not know our specific itinerary." ”

"You're always so comforting. Gu Qingming said, "Well, the matter has come to this point, no matter how much you worry, it is in vain, it is better to go with the flow and have your own fate." ”

"You are speaking like a master of the world full of Zen wit. Yun Yao couldn't help but quip, "Don't worry, Your Highness still has King Hao's help over there, and there won't be any problems for the time being." We'll be safe when we come, and maybe there will be other opportunities. ”

"The encounter you are talking about, do you mean the side by side king of Jingguo?" Gu Qingming said a word to break Yun Yao's mind and asked.

Yun Yao smiled and didn't answer, but that look had already given Gu Qingming a positive answer. The longer the two of them are together, the more they can connect with each other, and they used to make a promise to each other when they were in the Ning Palace, and now they can be regarded as truly having a heart.

Originally, when Yun Yao and Gu Qingming chose to start with the Jade King, it was because the Jade King was easier to break through, and it was in line with the principle of distant friendship and close attack, but it did not say that King Jing could not form an alliance at all. This time, because of the slightest matter, they are going to the capital of Jingguo, and they can also see what kind of person this Jingwang Shen Xun is.
