Ning Shu was stunned by the words of the two.

Uncontrollably emotional: "But if I don't do something, how can I be worthy of my husband?" ”

"Mrs. Xie-" Shen Yu pondered for a while and decided to speak: "Since Mrs. Xie wants to do something for Lord Xie, in addition to boarding the ship, there are actually some follow-up people on land who also need people. ”

Ning Shu stabilized her emotions, and tears were already hanging on her face.

"What?"

Shen Yu looked at her two tear stains and said softly: "Things have happened, you must be fully prepared." In addition to looking for people on the water, you can also search all the way along the river. In case Lord Xie is lucky enough to go ashore, or is rescued by a passing ship—"

"Good. I'll go. Ning Shu no longer hesitated.

Shen Yu's words are very right, she can't do anything on the water, and it's futile to go.

It's better to listen to Shen Yu's advice and look all the way along the river.

There may be a glimmer of hope.

"I was rude just now, I hope you two don't mind." Ning Shu wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes with the back of her hand, and calmly apologized to Shen Yu and King Kang.

"Mrs. Xie doesn't have to be like this, we all understand Mrs. Xie's feelings." King Kang replied.

He also wanted to arrange a room for Ning Shu to rest in the inn, but he didn't want Ning Shu to wait for a moment, and after asking Shen Yu where to start looking, he followed Shen Yu and left the inn without hesitation.

Looking at the empty room in a daze, King Kang couldn't help but let out a wry smile.

Was what he did right or wrong?

When Yuan Wu and Xuan Feng heard the news that Xie Yun Ember had fallen into the water, they were no less shocked than Ning Shu.

They fully agreed with Ning Shu's decision and immediately set off to find Xie Yunyan.

Ning Shu shook her head and asked the two, "I know that the husband should have his own power in secret, which of the two of you will connect with those people, and with their help to find it, things will be twice as effective with half the effort." ”

"What's more, there are two sides of the river, we are looking for it in the south of the Yangtze River, and we also need people to look for it in Yuzhou."

"No matter who finds the husband first, there must be someone who knows kung fu to pass on information to the other party."

Xuan Feng nodded frequently, thinking that Ning Shu's analysis was very reasonable.

Finally, he proposed: "I will follow my wife, and Yuanwu will go to find reinforcements." ”

"That's good." Ning Shu nodded and looked at Yuan Wu, "Yuan Wu, when can you leave?" ”

Yuan Wu patted his chest, "My subordinates will go here!" ”

Ning Shu and the others also immediately set off, holding the portrait of Xie Yunyan and the portrait of him after his disguise, and slowly began to look for it from the Sucheng River.

Shen Yuxiang sent a water bandit who was familiar with geography and water nature to accompany a few people, while King Kang sat quietly in the room and pondered all day.

The Qingjian Hall Master couldn't bear to see King Kang continue to be depressed, knocked on his door and asked, "Your Highness, do you want to eat something?" ”

All that was answered to him was an indefinite silence -

……

"May I ask this aunt, have you ever seen these two people in the portrait?" Ning Shu took the portrait, walked into the tea shed not far from the river, and asked the proprietress .

The proprietress shook her head, "I'm sorry, this lady, I receive so many guests every day, I really can't remember whether I have seen it or not." ”

Ning Shu smiled in disappointment, and walked out of the tea shed.

In the past month, she has said the same thing many times, and she does not know how many times she has heard the same answer.

However, every time she asked, she had infinite expectations, and every answer she received was like a sharp knife, piercing her heart.

On the other side, Long Shan also walked out of the tavern with the portrait, and shook his head at Ning Shu with an indifferent expression.

Xuan Feng asked a few fishermen who were swimming by the river to fish, and their faces were as gray as Long Shan.

Ning Shu glanced at the sky and sighed secretly, "It's not early today, let's find an inn nearby to stay overnight." ”

"Ma'am." Xuan Feng took a step forward, "I haven't gotten any news on the other side, and if I go any further, I may have to go to the border of Qi and enter the situation of Xiliang." ”

"Why don't we turn back along the road, maybe we can find a clue that we missed?"

Xuan Feng has endured this sentence for a long time.

Along the way, he didn't find any news about Xie Yunyan, and he didn't want to admit it in his heart, but he always had a bad premonition.

Moreover, the town of Jinjing where they are currently located is the border between Qi and Beiliang.

On the opposite side is Gujo-gun.

Crossing the downstream of the river and continuing to go deeper, it is the city of Beiliang.

"Yes, if you go down the river, there are steep mountains, and there are no people at all!" The water bandits of the Jade Dragon Gang had long wanted to persuade Ning Shu to turn back.

I can't get to the bottom of it.

He spoke cautiously, and the afterglow of his triangular eyes cautiously stared at Ning Shu.

Xuan Feng lowered his eyes sadly, and asked Ning Shu carefully, "This place is too far away from the water where the master was in distress, and my subordinates think—"

"You're right." Ning Shu's eyes were slightly red.

Xuan Feng could think of it, and she started thinking about it half a month ago.

How can a person, if he lands on the shore, not leave a trace?

She just didn't want to accept it.

Ning Shu held back her tears, her voice whimpering slightly, "Find a place to settle down today, and after we find the rest of the waters in Jinjing Town tomorrow, we will return the same way." ”

Long Shan and Xuan Feng were silent, they both knew how painful the psychological struggle Ning Shu had to go through when she made this decision.

After finding the inn and settling down, Long Shan looked at Ning Shu, who was getting thinner and thinner, and said distressedly: "Girl, these dishes are all local delicacies, why don't you eat some?" When you are full, you will have the strength to look for adults tomorrow. ”

"Hmm." Ning Shu answered happily, but the chopsticks in her hand seemed to weigh thousands of catties, and she couldn't lift any dishes.

"Hey." Long Shan sighed, and put a piece of meat into Ning Shu's bowl, "The girl will take this medicine and look for the adult's medicine!" ”

"Okay."

Ning Shu understands the truth.

It's just that I can't see Xie Yunyan for a day, and I can't sleep and eat for a day.

Especially when she came to the end, she was even more lost tonight.

Xuan Feng's eyes also had a little crystal flowing, he hadn't been so sad for a long time.

Tears gulped down the rice, Xuan Feng put down the dishes and chopsticks, and said to Ning Shu: "Madam, please rest in the inn, and my subordinates will go to find someone to inform the other side." ”

Ning Shu replied.

Long Shan also packed up the bed and withdrew.

She knew that she should leave Ning Shu a space of her own and let her cry to her heart's content-

That's true.

After everyone left, Ning Shu took the portrait of Xie Yunyan and stood in front of the window, gently stroking the cheek on the portrait with her fingertips.

"Today is the thirteenth day of the lunar month, you said you would come back, but I didn't expect you to break your promise this time-"

A tear fell on the portrait, blurring the place of the eyes on the portrait.

Ning Shu hurriedly wiped it in a panic, in order to prevent the ink marks from spreading further, she held the portrait high in front of her and blew it gently.

Trying to dry those tears with a haze.

Xu hadn't eaten well for a long time, her fingers couldn't bear it, and the portrait actually flew out of the window under her light blow.

Ning Shu leaned out of the window and stretched out her hand, but the wind blew the portrait farther away. 、

I watched as the portrait hovered in the air and finally landed on the street outside the inn.

A seven or eight-year-old child happened to pass by, picked up the portrait and looked up at Ning Shu: "Is this my sister's?" ”

Ning Shu hurriedly said: "Yes." ”

The child patted the dust on the portrait, and when he saw the person in the portrait, his brow furrowed deeply.

"Huh? Isn't this the county horse master of Beiliang? ”
