March 208 BC

Zhang Liang was very angry that I had escaped that day, and although he did not severely reprimand me, he sent two soldiers to follow me at all times and keep me under surveillance. Ari was also very angry, but she was soft-hearted, and after a few days of vomiting with me, she immediately returned to her original appearance, and she was very close to me.

"Snow Maiden, why did you sneak away a few days ago? You scared me to death, didn't you see the appearance of the son, like crazy!" Arry smacked his lips, and then asked with an ambiguous face, "You ...... ...... in the woods"

I knew what she wanted to ask, and I felt a little funny in my heart, so I knocked on her head and said, "Look at your young age, you have such a shameful thing in your head." ”

"Where do I think so much?" Ah Rui said aggrievedly, "When you and Gongzi came out of the forest that day, your clothes were disheveled, and your eyes were red, and those soldiers said......"

"Do you believe what those vulgar men say? They are full of men stealing and prostituting women, and you should stay away from them in the future, lest you be badly taught and you will not be able to marry in the future." I laughed at her.

Since I was captured by Zhang Budo that day, the team has continued to march for five days, and if nothing goes wrong, it will be able to reach Wuzhong, where Xiang Liang is located, tomorrow. Liu Bang had already sent someone to send the letter to Xiang Liang to express his intention to defect to Xiang's command, Xiang Liang was overjoyed, and replied that he would hold a banquet to welcome Liu Bang.

The night before meeting Xiang Liang, Zhang Liang discussed with Liu Bang and Xiao He in the tent for a long time, and Zhang Budo still slipped out to accompany me because he was not worried about me. He has been like this for the past few days, as if he was afraid that I would suddenly disappear, and he always stayed by my side. I was frustrated by his watchful behavior, so I pretended not to see him. Seeing that I did not want to speak, he was not annoyed, and sat quietly beside me until I fell asleep.

On this day, he still sat quietly across the campfire, staring at the burning bonfire without saying a word.

I suddenly opened my mouth: "Don't doubt brother, when the team and Wu Xinjun (Xiang Liang) converge, I will prepare to leave." ”

Zhang Budo's face turned white, he stared at me in disbelief, and said for a long time: "Where do you want to go? In this era of war, you are a helpless woman, and you don't know how long you can live without us." ”

"No matter how long you live, you have to be worthy of your heart, don't you?" I fiddled with the bonfire with my stick, and my voice was flat, "It's better to live or die than to stop like this." ”

"You also know that you are stagnant? Always thinking about the past, you can't take it away or let it go, that's what stops. His eyes were a little sharp, as if he wanted to see me in my heart.

The look was too pressing, and I was a little flustered, so I simply didn't look at him, frowned, and said: "Don't doubt brother, you are too much, I am not related to you, and you should be happy without my burden." ”

"Happy?!" he laughed a little maniacally as if he had heard some big joke, and I was so frightened by his appearance that I couldn't help but shrink back, but he suddenly stopped his voice, looked at me with his colorless eyes, and said sadly, "Which eye of yours can see that I will be happy?" Cher, you can not give me a chance, you can not give me hope, but you can't deny my feelings, it's too hurtful. ”

"Don't doubt my brother......" I looked at him, my chest was full of sourness, and I couldn't help choking: "Don't do this...... I beg you...... I...... I don't know what to do......"

Zhang Budo fell silent, he turned away from me, and returned to the tent with only a sentence of "rest early".

It is said that you can't force it if you have no reason, don't doubt brother, you are so affectionate, how can I be good?

As a result of the night's sleep, I rested in the carriage the next day and then rested in the afternoon. When I finally woke up, it was already unitary time, and it was Ari who woke me up, and she pointed out to the outside of the carriage and said to me with a smile, "Snow Maiden, it's here." ”

"Already there?" I rubbed my confused brain, and was about to take a sip of water from the kettle from the package, but another thing in the bag slipped out.

It was the tiger stripe pendant that Changxi left for me when he left Ah Fang.

I bent down to pick up the jade pendant and was about to put it back in the package, but I felt a sudden shock in my heart, and my heartbeat suddenly became abnormal. I had felt this feeling a few days before when I passed through the woods, but this time it was even stronger than that day.

"Changxi......" I looked at the tiger stripe pendant in my hand, tears couldn't help but slide down, and my voice couldn't help but bring ecstasy and trembling: "Here...... Must be here......"

"Snow Maiden?" Ari was startled by my appearance, she shook me, and asked nervously, "Girl, what's wrong with you?"

I clutched the tiger stripe in my hand, and regardless of Ari, who was still worried about me, I lifted the curtain and jumped out of the carriage.

"Have you seen Changxi?" I grabbed a soldier casually and asked with a look of anticipation, "This strong man, have you seen Changxi?"

The young man who was being held by me blushed, he looked at my hand holding his arm, blushed and said, "I...... I didn't ...... I haven't heard the name Changxi......"

"How is that possible? He must be here!" I asked relentlessly, "Think about it again, have you ever seen a gentle and elegant son with a charming face?"

The young man suddenly laughed, and said funny: "Girl, don't be funny, this is a military camp, how can there be such a handsome son?"

My excited heart instantly cooled, and my whole body trembled like withered grass in the wind, and finally I fell to the ground.

"Xue'er!" Zhang Budo rushed over to help me up, and asked nervously, "What's wrong with you?"

I shook my head, only to feel an indescribable sour breath in my throat, and I couldn't say anything, only tears.

Seeing that I didn't say anything, Zhang Budo was a little angry and a little helpless, so he had to help me back into the carriage again, and told Ah Rui to take care of me, and he came back after he went to see Xiang Liang and King Chu Huai.

I leaned against the wall of the carriage with a pale face, clutching the tiger stripe pendant in my hand, and I hated to crush it alive. Ari looked at my face like ashes, and couldn't help but cover his handkerchief and sob.

"Why are you crying?" I looked at her helplessly, looked at her weakly and smiled: "A very good-looking girl, she becomes ugly when she cries." ”

"I ...... I'm not worth ...... for Snow Maiden," she sobbed, "You searched for him so desperately, and he didn't hear from you after he left you...... Snow Maiden ...... You're so bitter......"

"He can't be blamed for that. Okay Ari, it's not his fault......" I smiled wryly, with a hint of self-deprecation, "He asked me to wait for him, I myself came out to find him...... I brought it on myself......"

"Girl......" Ari lay on my lap and looked at me with teary eyes, "I beg you...... Don't torture yourself......"

I reached out and touched her face and nodded, "Okay." ”

When night fell, Zhang Budo still hadn't returned, and Ari was afraid that I would be depressed, so he pulled me out of the carriage, saying that I was happy after a walk.

I walked quietly with her in the night, and when she saw that I was thinly dressed, she asked me to wait for her where I was, and she went back to the carriage to get her cloak. I watched her leave, but a white shadow flashed out of the corner of my eye. With a pain in my heart, I turned my head to look, only to see that in front of me, there was a white figure moving forward in the alternation of light and darkness.

I've seen this scene, and in that dream not long ago, it was this figure.

I carefully followed the figure, and my heart was filled with irrepressible ecstasy.

I didn't dare call him by name. Calling Changxi, I'm afraid that the person is actually Wu Yi, and calling Wuyi, I'm afraid that the person is actually Changxi. In the tension and anxiety, the moonlight gradually brightened, illuminating the back of the man walking in front, who stood under a pear tree in full bloom, facing the moonlight, with his back to me, his long black hair scattered on his back, which looked like a painting.

The feelings that have been accumulated for a long time drowned me like a flood of embankments, and I couldn't help but stretch out my hand and call softly in a trembling voice: "Long ......"

The man turned his head when he heard the voice, and his face was as delicate and charming as when he left Afang Palace.

He looked at me, and it was as if he was pinned to the ground. I could see his eyes in the moonlight, and there was shock, ecstasy, and disbelief written in them.

"Cher......" His voice trembled, with a hint of caution: "Are you here......"

Since ancient times, fate has been destined, long, across the vast sea of people, I will finally see you again.
