But whenever she pondered this question, there was always a figure in front of her.

The young man dressed in white and with white feathers like snow. When he said goodbye, his resolute and gloomy eyes always pierced Gu Wanyi like an arrow, stinging her nerves that wanted to be content with the status quo every time, and woke her up from her comfort.

She shook her head, as if she wanted to leave these thoughts behind. She tried hard to get herself involved in it, because it was her own grudge, and she was the only one, bleeding all the way.

After a while, she seemed to think of something again, and asked, "Didn't he tell us about Dark Feather's whereabouts?"

Mu Changsheng was stunned for a moment and nodded thoughtfully.

"Then it's possible that he wants to get rid of us with the help of Darkfeather. Xiao Qi stood up, patted the sand on his hands, glanced at Gu Wanyi's stunned expression, wiped a faint smile on his face, and said, "Let's go, the Desert Wolf Camp has gone far, so it's better to go back to that post station and stay comfortable." ”

Everyone responded, stepped on the sand with one foot deep and one foot shallow, and walked in the direction of the post station, only Gu Wanyi fluttered her feathers lightly, floating in the air, like a dexterous paper kite, holding her head high quite comfortably. The desert wolf camp went out of the city, within a radius of several miles, the travelers and the people fled when they heard the wind, and they all avoided it early, so as far as the eye could see, on the sand dunes, only Xiao Qi and his party, and there were dense and chaotic rows of footprints, extending into the distance.

Under the scorching summer sun, Xiao Qi wiped the sweat from his face, and caught a glimpse of Xiaoxi walking very hard, reluctantly following everyone's footsteps. She was small, and the dust barely reached her calves. Xiao Qi handed her the spear in his hand, originally meant to let her use it as a crutch to facilitate walking, but Xiaoxi kept her head down and walked, and inadvertently saw Xiao Qi handing the spear in front of her, startled, like a frightened bird, in a panic, the whole person bounced back, and almost fell to the ground.

Xiao Qi was stunned for a moment, and immediately realized that he had scared her, and said with some embarrassment: "This is for you, it is easier to walk with ease." Xiaoxi came back to his senses, his face was as red as a burning glow, he reached out to take the spear, and said in an inaudible voice: "Thank you, Young Master Xiao Qi." ”

"If I'm not in Benhai City, I'm not a young master. Xiao Qi stepped forward.

Xiaoxi only nodded slightly and did not answer. Xiao Qi walked to the front of the group, and Xiaoxi fell to the end, she kept her head down, and looked up slightly from time to time to look at Xiao Qi who was walking in front.

Turning over the sand dunes in front of them, they could see the abandoned inn where they had been hiding. Xiao Qi, who was walking in front, suddenly stopped, his brows furrowed slightly.

Mu Changsheng stepped forward, and on the empty sand dunes, he soon found that in front of the abandoned post station where they were originally hiding, there was a lonely figure standing, standing in the light, squinting slightly, and smiling.

Mu Changsheng said suspiciously: "How could Suo Pingzhang be here......

Before Xiao Qi could speak, Suo Pingzhang had already discovered Xiao Qi and the others, he did not show a surprised look, turned sideways slightly, faced the direction of Xiao Qi and the others, smiled and nodded in greeting.

Xiao Qi's eyes were slightly cold, and he looked at Suo Pingzhang for a moment. One gaze is as cold as a knife, the other smile is gentle as the wind, looking at each other from afar, as if a spark has burst out. Xiao Qi finally retracted his gaze, walked down quickly, and asked, "How did you find here?"

"It's not that hard. Suo Pingzhang looked at Gu Wanyi, who appeared on the top of the sand dune, and said with a smile, "Suo Mou guessed that with the special identity of a girl, she would definitely not be able to enter the city, so you could only hide outside the city." And it is surrounded by an endless desert, flat and forested, and there is not much to hide. It is located in the northeast corner, not near the trade routes where travelers and caravans come and go, so it is the best choice. If it were me, I would choose this place as a hiding place. ”

Xiao Qi had a gloomy face, very unhappy that Suo Pingzhang saw through him so easily, and sneered: "In front of General Suo, there is really nowhere to hide." Since General Suo can find here, Di Yuan should be able to find it too, right?"

"Suo Mou came this time to remind you that a few days ago, you found out the hiding place of Dark Feather, and Di Hou Ye was on guard, and recently he was going to search inside and outside Shajiang City. To avoid trouble, you have to be careful. ”

"The people from Yunzhou were also there that day, and they witnessed the whole process, Di Yuan wanted to find someone, and the group of people in Yunzhou was right under his nose, wouldn't it be more convenient to deal with it?" Mu Changsheng interjected.

Suo Pingzhang shook his head and said: "The people of Yunzhou have premeditated, and they have not shown their feet, Di Hou Ye was not in the city that day, and the specific situation is not clear, he only knows that someone broke into the hiding place of Dark Feather at night, who is it, how many groups of people there are, he doesn't know very well, when he investigates, it is naturally hiding outside the city, and the people who are accompanied by the Wing Clan are the most suspicious." What's more, there was such a fuss in Nantang Yuan that day, if it weren't for Suo Mou deliberately suppressing the news, Di Hou Ye would probably have been suspicious. ”

"I didn't expect General Suo to be so kind, that night, a big gift from Yunzhou was also arranged by General Suo, right?" Xiao Qi said mockingly, and his eyes were as cold as a knife.

Suo Pingzhang was stunned for a moment and smiled: "That day, I asked you to go at night, because Di Hou Ye was worried about the Eastern Expedition, and went to the desert wolf camp in the western suburbs of the city, which was not in the city, which can be described as a good time." And the people of Yunzhou didn't know where to find out the news of the hidden feathers in Shajiang City, and they would quietly investigate in the city almost every night. ”

Xiao Qi was noncommittal, and asked again: "The strange noise that night, was also done by you?"

"Hehe, Suo Mou had expected that Dark Feather was extremely difficult to deal with, and he had been secretly investigating for a long time. That day, he was worried that something would go wrong, so he stole a 'Wind Conch' from Di Hou Ye, and he controlled the dark feather by using the sound made by this snail. It's just that he was afraid that he would find out, so he secretly let it go back. ”

"General Suo's clever methods are related to Di Yuan's deepest secret, and he actually let you steal out and release it like child's play. Xiao Qi sneered, obviously not believing it.

Suo Pingzhang looked calm, shrugged his shoulders and said: "It doesn't matter if the son doesn't believe it, no matter what, Suo Mou can harm you? If Suo Mou remembers well, it seems that Suo Mou also saved Miss Gu's life at that time, right? As long as you are clear, Suo Mou and you have the same position. ”

With that, he smiled at the crowd and turned away, disappearing behind a patch of earthy sand dunes.

Gu Wanyi came to the front, looked at Xiao Qi, and asked, "He really didn't harm us, and he also told us where Dark Feather was, and even saved my life that day." What the hell are you suspicious of him?"

Xiao Qi shook his head, not knowing where to start. Gu Wanyi glanced at him, pulled Xiaoxi to herself, and went into the post station to take a cooler. Mu Changsheng seemed to be convinced of Gu Wanyi's words, touched his stubble thoughtfully, and returned to the station.

Only Xiao Qi was left standing outside, looking at the direction in which Suo Pingzhang disappeared, frowning. Suddenly, he caught a glimpse of a familiar figure, flashing over the sand dunes not far away. His brow twitched, and a sudden thought drove him to step over.

Liu Qingxue stood quietly holding her sword, her head green silk rising with the wind, like smooth and delicate black satin, but she didn't look at Xiao Qi, but looked at the direction in which Suo Pingzhang disappeared. Xiao Qi walked closer and said, "Is our place so easy to find?"

"I followed Suo Pingzhang just to remind you that Suo Pingzhang is not credible. Do not get too close to him. ”

"What did you find?"

Liu Qingxue said: "I was also present on the night you met the people of Yunzhou. There is a mysterious person who has been secretly snooping, and he doesn't know how to stop the dark feather from committing the murder. I suspect that person is Suo Pingzhang. ”

Xiao Qi nodded and said, "Yes, he just admitted it." He said that he had stolen the 'Wind Conch' from Di Yuan, and that he could control the Dark Feather. ”

Liu Qingxue was noncommittal and asked, "Do you believe it?"

"I don't know. In any case, his relationship with Dark Feather is by no means as simple as it seems. Xiao Qi looked at Liu Qingxue's eyes and said, "If you want to check him, remember to be careful." ”

Liu Qingxue was stunned for a moment, her expression was a little unnatural, and she tilted her head to the side: "Don't bother you." ”

She continued: "There's something else that's a little weird. In Fencheng that day, listening to the tone of those people in Yunzhou, it seemed that they had long known that there was a hidden dark feather in Shajiang City, but they were out day and night during this time, and it seemed that they were secretly investigating the matter of dark feathers, and obviously they didn't want Di Yuan to find out, indicating that they didn't hear the news about dark feathers from Di Yuan, at least not on the surface. ”

"You mean, it's Suo Pingzhang......"

"This person is torn between Di Yuan, us, and Yunzhou, and his mind is deep, and he must be guarded against. ”

Xiao Qi nodded lightly in approval. The two of them were silent for a moment, standing quietly on the sand dunes, their clothes hunting in the wind. Xiao Qi only felt that the atmosphere was a little weird, and couldn't help but speak: "Aren't you going to meet Miss Gu and Brother Mu?"

"No, just be careful. In the wind, Liu Qingxue pulled the hair flying on her forehead behind her ears, turned around to leave, and suddenly remembered something, Liu raised her eyebrows, turned back and asked Xiao Qi: "I saw that there is another girl next to you, where did you come from?"

"She was originally a maid in Benhai City, but she was kidnapped by the people of Yunzhou and wanted to give Di Yuan as a gift, and was rescued by me and Brother Mu in Shajiang City. Xiao Qi said briefly.

Liu Qingxue nodded, and suddenly chuckled: "I didn't expect that people like you could provoke so many peach blossoms." ”

Xiao Qi remembered that she had known Liu Qingxue for several months, and she had laughed only a handful of times. Before he could react from the slight surprise brought by this smile, he saw that Liu Qingxue had already restrained his smile, waved his hand, and walked away, his shoulder-length black hair flying in the wind. In the distance, the blue back was only a small black dot, and then disappeared.
