Finally, although Jin Yuanzheng's injury looked scary, it was not life-threatening, and after getting the news, Yang Le'an, Yuan Xing, and a housekeeper who were waiting outside the door all breathed a sigh of relief.

It didn't take long for Mrs. Jin, who had been by Jin Yuanzheng's side, to walk out of the door, her tired face mixed with a look of sorrow.

"Sir, please come in and see you." Afraid to wipe the corners of her eyes with her hands, Mrs. Jin said softly, and left with the support of the maid.

More than a dozen people entered the room full of medicinal smells, Jin Yuan was leaning on the couch, although his face was pale, he seemed to be in good spirits, and when he saw everyone, he laughed softly.

"Senior brother can still laugh at this time?" Yang Le'an, who was still very impatient outside, actually settled down at this time, but he was still complaining.

"Is Master Jin okay?" The fate of the eleventh ceremony.

"It's not a big deal, Jin An is weaker in the end, and he doesn't have much strength." Jin Yuanzheng shook his head weakly, and then beckoned everyone to find a place to sit down, these people were already very crowded when they came in, and no one was in the mood to sit down.

"What are you doing with this kid? Who of us would have thought that the spy who has been looking for it is this person who grew up watching it since childhood. Yang Le'an snorted coldly.

"Bad fate." Jin Yuanzheng sighed and said. "Let's find a chance to let him go."

"Senior brother, why do you want to put it? He almost killed you. Yang Le'an asked.

"As soon as he said thirty-eight, I knew who he was." Jin Yuanzheng turned his head, and said in a painful tone: "Back then, for the great cause of the emperor, I had to endure the pain of executing the Cui family in Liuyang, Jin An, should be the only bloodline of the Cui family." Unexpectedly, he was willing to bow low and be small, and sold himself to the old man's side for more than ten years, which is also a poor person. ”

"In this way, this kid is also a man." Yang Le'an hung his head for a long time, and suddenly choked his wrists and said: "I'm sorry senior brother, after getting on the boat, because he was angry, he actually arranged for someone to sink him into the river." ”

The fate on the side was puzzled, the little scholar was obviously shouting thirty-seven mouths at the time, how did he become thirty-eight mouths when he came to Jin Yuanzheng, could it be a mistake? But when I heard Yang Le'an's words above, my heart jumped.

"You...... You...... How can this be......" Jin Yuanzheng pointed at his junior brother tremblingly, and sighed after a long time: "That's it, it's also that the old man didn't arrange thoughtfully, and he still owes them the Cui family." Speaking of this, he wiped his tears again: "I have followed the old man for so many years, there is no merit and hard work, and I will have the opportunity to fish up his body in the future, and I will definitely bury him." ”

"Jin An betrayed the master, he deserves ......"

"The old man is benevolent." The housekeepers and guards present were moved, and they expressed their admiration for their masters, as well as their disdain and contempt for the traitors.

Yuan Xing's brows were still furrowed, he looked at Jin Yuanzheng who wiped his tears and Yang Le'an who sighed again and again, and then glanced at the people around him with gratitude and admiration, and couldn't help but shudder.

---------------

After almost five or six days of such peace, the passenger ship has been heading east, and has arrived in Yangzhou, and the one-month mission period has also arrived.

Yuan Xing proposed to Yang Le'an about getting off the boat, at this time, Yang Le'an naturally didn't treat him as unpleasantly as before, and the relationship was okay on weekdays.

But when he wanted to leave, the other party was obviously hesitant and did not agree immediately, but asked him to wait.

Yuanxing is depressed, this is because he is afraid that the poor monk will leak the news after he goes ashore, right? But we really don't want to meddle in your affairs, we just want to return to Tianchan Temple as soon as possible.

Then, in the early morning of the second day, it was still a foggy day, and he was taken to the cabin where Jin Yuanzheng was recuperating from his injuries.

Jin Yuanzheng has not recovered from his serious injuries, and he is still lacking in spirit.

"The old man is fine." Jin Yuanzheng smiled weakly: "I heard that you are leaving?" ”

Yuan Xing nodded, and was about to say something, but his expression suddenly changed.

Jin Yuanzheng saw that his face had changed, and he was about to ask, but the hatch was pushed open again, and a guard ran in quickly, and said eagerly after giving a salute: "Master, someone is attacking the ship." ”

"Where's Le'an?"

"Lord Yang is commanding the enemy."

"Then what are you anxious about?" Jin Yuanzheng sat up straight and snorted coldly.

"Yes." The guard saluted again, bowed and withdrew.

"Look, if the old man is in a slight condition, this person's heart will be unstable." Jin Yuanzheng shook his head and sighed.

Yuan Xing's ear power is very good, and it seems that the sound of the fight outside is quite intense, but the biggest source of the sound of harmony is very familiar, it should be Yang Le'an, and the sound is full of energy, and it seems that the situation can be controlled.

He recited the Buddha's name, and his anxious mind calmed down.

Jin Yuanzheng glanced at him, and seeing that his face had calmed down, he couldn't help but praise: "The monk's heart is cultivating well. Sometimes the old man really envies you people in Buddhism and Taoism, although there are some flies and dogs, but there are still more peaceful and credible true cultivators like you. ”

"Master Jin has won the award."

"The old man has something to ask for, I don't know if the monk can agree."

"Speak, please." Yuan Xing clasped his palms together and saluted, and replied in his mouth, but he didn't immediately agree, knowing that the other party must have something to explain if he was left alone, but he couldn't help but wonder in his heart, what would the other party have to ask for something on the head of a monk with a shallow foundation?

"If you can unknowingly hook up with the scholar next to the old man, whether it is the imperial court or the past opponent, you must be extraordinary. And the old man is just a person who fakes his death and gets out, and he is no longer as powerful as he used to be. Jin Yuanzheng stared at the roof of the cabin, said a few words slowly, and then stared at Yuan Xing, and was extremely solemn: "The old man wants to ask you to send a person to Liangzhou Mansion safely." ”

"Liangzhou ......" hesitated, and couldn't help but hesitate, Jin Yuan happened to teach him calligraphy for a month, and the two of them could be regarded as having a master-apprentice fate, if it was an ordinary small favor, even if he wanted to fight, he immediately agreed. But Liangzhou is at least 3,000 miles away from here, and according to the traffic conditions in ancient times, I don't know how long it will take. I definitely can't go back to Tianchan Temple to see the elders and brothers as planned. How can I be willing to return to this time and space with great expectations, and I can't even see the mountain gate of Tianchan Temple?

There was silence on his side, Jin Yuan was waiting for his decision, and he didn't say a word, and there was silence in the cabin.

I don't know how long it took, but the shouts and fights above my head were still heard in bursts, and the hatch door was finally knocked.

After Jin Yuan answered, the door was pushed open, and Mrs. Jin, who was red-eyed, walked in with a thin and small girl.

Jin Yuanzheng hurriedly sat up straight at this time, smiled and stretched out his hands to the little girl, but the little girl's expression was extremely blank, and she arrived at the couch under the traction of Mrs. Jin.

Jin Yuanzheng didn't seem to care about this situation, dragged the little girl, looked up and down with love in his eyes, and then asked Mrs. Jin on the side, "Yaoyao is frightened, right?" ”

"I just heard the fight, and this girl hid in the cabinet again." Mrs. Jin wiped her eyes with a handkerchief, but the tears still flowed uncontrollably, but she seemed to be holding back and not crying.

Jin Yuanzheng turned to Yuan Xing: "This is the person I want you to escort." ”

The latter looked at the little girl, who was too thin, seemed to be five or six years old, although her eyebrows were delicate, her hair was yellow and she looked nervous, and her eyes were full of panic and helplessness.

"That's what she's been like since she witnessed her parents being killed three years ago." Jin Yuanzheng lamented: "If she hadn't been hiding in the cabinet that day, our people would have arrived in time, I'm afraid she would have been gone." But since then, the originally lively and cute little girl has become like this, and she will tremble at the slightest disturbance, and she has never spoken again. ”

"My miserable grandson." Over there, Mrs. Jin couldn't hold back any longer, and hid her face and cried bitterly.

Yuan Xing couldn't help but show sympathy when he heard this, encountering this kind of human tragedy was too big a blow for a child.

"Everyone in the world says that the old man is ruthless, and he was indeed decisive and ruthless back then, but wasn't the original intention to end that troubled world?" Jin Yuanzheng clenched his fists, his already bloodless face turned even whiter, he trembled his lips, and said: "The old man only has three sons and one daughter under his knees, the eldest son was starved to death when he fled the famine, the second son died in the army, the third son died early due to illness, only the youngest daughter grew up safely and married a good family, but because of the old man's involvement, she was sent by political enemies to harm the family, her husband's family of more than a dozen people, leaving only this bloodline...... "At this point, he couldn't cry: "If this is a ruthless retribution, why shouldn't it be on the old man?" ”

Yuan Xing was also embarrassed when he heard this, and listened to the other party: "The current situation is critical and the enemy is strong, the old man must have the other party's spies by his side, although Le'an's martial arts are strong, but after all, two fists are invincible to four hands, and the old man is afraid that he will not be able to take care of all his family." The ability of the people available in the guard is also insufficient, and the capable ones are not suitable, only the little master you can entrust, as long as the gods are unaware of the ghosts and ghosts to the shore, they can come and go freely after the transformation. ”

"Amitabha." Yuan Xing pursed his lips and hesitated for a moment, raised his eyes to look at Jin Yuanzheng, who was full of tears, and then glanced at the little girl whose eyes were still blank, and said in a deep voice: "I agreed." ”

After discussing the matter of meeting in Liangzhou with Jin Yuanzheng, Yuan Xing went north to his bags and ran to the deck with the little girl named Hong Qingyao.

The battle outside was still fierce, and from time to time black-clothed masked men on both sides attacked along the ropes, and were repelled by the guards of the Jin family.

Yuan Xing glanced at Yang Le'an, who was fighting with the two masters, and slipped to the stern of the boat while no one cared about it, and then picked up Hong Qingyao and walked into the river and disappeared into the morning mist.

------------

When I got to the shore, as Jin Yuanzheng said, I didn't find anyone catching up. But Yuanxing didn't dare to relax, and ran forward for several miles before stopping to rest.

The backpack behind him was much heavier than when he came, with the coil given by the Jin family, Hong Qingyao and his own clothes, and even a set of tools and wigs for disguise.

found a secluded place to play around, and when they got out of the forest, the two of them had a drastic change.

Yuan Xing turned into a chic scholar with a folding fan in his hand and a green shirt, while Hong Qingyao was dressed as a scholar, with that face with a wooden look, he was completely the image of a simple boy.

The two turned into Yangzhou City, bought a horse first, and then rode around the city a few times before starting to officially go north.

This is done in order to get rid of possible tracking, and secondly, to familiarize yourself with the control of horses, although Yuan Xing has ridden horses in modern times, but after all, there is not much contact, and you can only slowly find a feeling.

Dayong was established not many years ago, and at this time, the officials ruled Qingming, and the public order was quite good. The two of them stayed in the hotel like normal travelers, and they hurried to rest at night, but they did not encounter twists and turns, and everything was quite peaceful.

Along the way, the little girl Hong Qingyao really didn't say a word, and her response to Yuanxing's care and care was also very few, only when there were people in the rivers and lakes or officials and other people with weapons in their hands passing by, they would show a frightened and uneasy look, because the two were riding the same horse, and she had nowhere to hide, so she could only drill into Yuanxing's arms.

Yuan Xing deduced that this should be a traumatic psychological disorder, and he was more sympathetic. Along the way, he deliberately avoided those who held swords in their hands, and some passers-by saw him behaving like this, only thinking that he was a scholar who was timid, although he couldn't help but laugh at it, no one doubted it.

This naturally slowed down the pace of progress, but Yuan Xing insisted that the little girl's mental health was more important, and it was really nothing to arrive in Liangzhou a few days at night in comparison. So whenever he had free time, he would tell Hong Qingyao some fairy tales or read a scripture. It may not be of much use, but he believes that with this, at least it will make the girl relatively better off in the face of fear.

And when there are no bystanders on the official road, he will try to urge the horse, which has reduced the time lost on the road.

But when he arrived in Yunzhou, the speed of Yuan's march slowed down, and his mood was not as relaxed as before. Only the daily stories and Buddhist scriptures continued, and the little girl's expression was still wooden, but no one noticed that there was a layer of brilliance in her eyes.

After following the guidance of passers-by to a fork in the road, Yuanxing unusually stopped his horse and stopped at the intersection. He kept looking at the section of the road towards the northeast and was silent for a long time.

It wasn't until he was dragged by the little girl that he came to his senses, and saw that it was already afternoon, and if he didn't hurry, he would miss the nightstay, he first sighed, and then laughed. Turning the horse's head, he finally chose the road that went straight north.

Jin Cicada's text appeared in front of him: "You really don't want to go back and see? ”

Yuan Xing didn't answer, turned his head and took one last look at the direction of Qingzhou, then gritted his teeth, rode his horse and whipped, and galloped away......
