Chaoyuan Town is the largest town in the south of the Yangtze River, the streets and alleys are scattered, the rivers in the town are staggered, the water network is open, there are cargo ships, passenger ships and pleasure boats floating on the water surface, and the waterfront is bright and green, a prosperous and lively market scene.

In the middle of this market, three people walked over, perhaps to avoid the scorching sun, and all three of them covered most of their faces with scarves.

But despite this, it can be vaguely discerned that the middle person has clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes, seems to be a child of a rich family, on the left a person with three strands of long hair fluttering on his chest, with a fairy wind and bones, and on the right a dark complexion, full of sideburns, but a tall and strong man.

The three of them came to a tavern, chose a secluded corner to sit down, asked the man for a few side dishes, a pot of soju, and ate and drank.

But I heard the bearded man say: "The minister is familiar with the county magistrate of Fengyuan County, Lu Fangshan, we might as well defect to him." ”

"Is this man reliable?" The middle-aged man with three strands of long hair asked worriedly.

"Rest assured, this person and I are fellow countrymen, known each other since childhood, and honest and loyal. Besides, the thieves haven't arrived there yet...... "Dahan said.

"Still, it's better to be careful." The middle-aged man said in a low voice.

"Okay, I see that the inventory at the city gate has gradually loosened, and it is not appropriate to stay here for a long time, so it is better to leave immediately, so as not to have many dreams at night."

The man said.

Sitting in the middle, the young man who had not spoken, nodded, picked up his glass and drank the wine in it.

Wangnan County has once again fallen into the hands of Zhao Jiangxiang, the king of Beijun, and Xiao Jin naturally can't go back to make a difference. Fang Shuyun appreciated Xiao Jin's talent very much, so he simply kept him by his side as a personal guard, and also kept Gao Hongsheng and Gao Ling's father and daughter in Chaoyuan, intending to entrust him with important tasks.

How could Gao Hongsheng's wife and children still stay in Haixiang, and they couldn't help but remember and feel homesick, so they refused Fang Shuyun's kindness and immediately set off to return home.

Fang Shuyun saw that he couldn't keep it, so he had to carefully tell the father and daughter to be careful all the way, and gave a lot of gifts, and secretly appointed people to secretly protect the two until Hedonghai Township.

But it was said that Gao Hongsheng and Gao Ling's father and daughter rode a fast horse and went away, non-stop along the way, and they came to a small town called Linshui Town one day.

Seeing that it was getting late, I found a hotel to live in, the name of the hotel is very down-to-earth, called a farmhouse shop, it is a small hotel, there are more than a dozen small rooms.

There weren't many visitors in the store, so among the guests who came over, Gao Ling recognized two of them at a glance, and although these two people had been deliberately dressed up, Gao Ling still recognized them at a glance with her natural intuition.

These two people are Mu Xiaofei and Du Yunling

At that time, several guests of the hotel were dining together in the small restaurant on the storefront, because Mu Xiaofei and Du Yunling happened to have their backs to the father and daughter, and the candlelight in the store was dim, so the two did not seem to see Gao Ling's father and daughter.

Gao Ling was still dressed as a man, and Gao Hongsheng deliberately turned his back to prevent the two of them from seeing his face.

After a hurried meal, the father and daughter quickly left the dining room and returned to the guest room, closing the door tightly.

In the middle of the night, there was a sudden neighing of horses in the yard. Gao Ling heard that the voice was a big white cry, jumped up from the bed, and rushed out of the guest room with a sword to the courtyard, but saw two black shadows desperately pulling the reins of the horse to the courtyard gate.

Gao Ling came close and shouted: "Horse thief! Stop me! ”

When the two thieves looked back, they recognized it as Mu Xiaofei and Du Yunling by the moonlight.

"It's really not like they don't get together! It turned out to be Miss Gao, don't come unharmed? Mu Xiaofei asked with a grin.

Gao Ling rushed out in a hurry, but before she could dress up, her hair was shawl, and her body was convex and concave, revealing the true appearance of a girl.

Mu Xiaofei had been in Haixiang for many years, and he naturally knew Gao Ling, the daughter of the Gao family's shop, secretly, and finally recognized her this time.

"Mu Xiaofei! You're such a dog that can't change eating! Gao Ling shouted.

"Humph! Less nonsense! Annoyed uncle, I will take you away! Let's go! Mu Xiaofei warned.

After saying that, the two of them turned over and got on the horse one after the other, Mu Xiaofei whipped the white horse with a horsewhip, and the white horse was in pain, and galloped forward with a neigh.

Gao Ling exhaled in a hurry: "Mu Xiaofei, do you remember Ye Tong?" ”

said that Mu Xiaofei and Du Yunling rode forward on their horses for a while, but Gao Ling's voice behind him made Mu Xiaofei can't help but tighten the reins of the horse.

"Ye Tong?" A name once again caused ripples in Mu Xiaofei's heart.

Mu Xiaofei grabbed the reins and asked, "What did she (he) say just now?" ”

Du Yunling felt that Mu Xiaofei seemed to be talking to himself, as if asking himself behind him, and saw Mu Xiaofei looking back in front of him, so he also turned his head to look behind him, but saw that in front of the small shop not far away, Gao Ling could still be seen standing.

At this time, two words popped out of Mu Xiaofei's mouth: "Ye Tong!" ”

After saying these two words, Mu Xiaofei pulled the reins violently, turned the horse's head and galloped back to the farmhouse shop.

Du Yunling was puzzled, and asked urgently behind him: "Big brother, what are you doing?" ”

Mu Xiaofei ignored it and urged the horse to go straight back to the front of the store.

Gao Ling was standing in front of the courtyard gate with a grin, as if waiting for the two of them to turn back.

At this time, there was already one more person standing in front of the store, it was Gao Hongsheng, with a black face and no words.

Several rooms in the courtyard were also lit up, and some guests pushed open windows or doors to peek out, apparently disturbed by the movement just now, and did not know what was going on.

Gao Ling stepped forward to hold the white horse, walked into the courtyard, and smiled at the guests who woke up: "Just now my friend went out on a whim and slipped around the horse, disturbed, disturbed. ”

Mu Xiaofei was stunned for a moment, then hurriedly glanced at him, turned over and dismounted with Du Yunling, handed over the reins of the horse to Gao Ling, and said with a smile: "Hehe! Good horse! Sure enough, it's a good horse! ”

Gao Hongsheng snorted in his nostrils, of course he knew what kind of characters Mu Xiaofei and Du Yunling were, but when he saw Bai Ma walking and returning, he didn't know what kind of medicine Gao Ling's son was selling in his gourd.

"Going out for a walk in the middle of the night? The devil believes such a thing. Gao Hongsheng secretly thought in his heart.

But I heard Gao Ling say to Mu Xiaofei again: "Tie the horse well, but don't lose it." ”

Mu Xiaofei even claimed that it was, carefully bolted the horse according to Gao Ling's instructions, turned around and was about to speak to him, but saw Gao Ling yawn a lot, waved his hand and said, "Miss Ben is tired, if there is something to do, talk well at dawn." ”

Seeing this, Mu Xiaofei hurriedly gave up, tugged at Du Yunling's clothes, laughed at Gao Ling a few times, and obediently returned to his room.

Early in the morning of the second day, Gao Hongsheng's father and daughter were ready to continue their journey, Mu Xiaofei and Du Yunling were waiting at the door of the inn early, and when they saw the father and daughter leading the horse out, Mu Xiaofei hurriedly ran over and accosted Gao Ling with a smile.
