After separating from Zhuo Minghe, Lin Xi and Zhou Ke went to Pei County.

The two of them traveled at night, passing through Haixian County at dawn, and Lin Xi couldn't help but stop.

Zhou Ke knew that Lin Xi's children were all in Hai County, so he asked respectfully: "Miss Lin, do you want to go in?" There shouldn't be much time to lose. ”

Lin Xi wanted to go in, but she knew that once she saw the children, she would definitely be more reluctant and uncomfortable than now.

She also felt a little sorry for the Three Treasures and the Four Treasures, and let them be sent here without telling them anything. I don't know how they felt when they woke up the morning before yesterday and saw Zhuo Minghe.

No, it's more important to Shen Chen.

Lin Xi's heart was horizontal, "Don't go, go to Pei County first!" ”

She rode away, and Zhou Ke followed.

Maybe when people are anxious and worried, they are full of only one thing and can't care about anything else. The two of them had been riding horses all the time, and Lin Xi couldn't remember to eat breakfast at all.

I don't know how far I traveled, until it was nearly noon, Lin Xi was a little dizzy from hunger, so he stopped in a forest and gnawed directly on the dry food with the water in the water bag.

Zhou Ke tied the two horses to a tree nearby, let them eat the newly grown shoots on the ground, and then went over to Lin Xi and sat down two feet away, silently gnawing on dry food.

Lin Xi was a little embarrassed to look at him like that.

"You're tired of accompanying me all night. Otherwise, I'll find some firewood to make a fire, and you can keep warm. ”

Zhou Ke hurriedly said: "I'm a rough person, I can't say how tired I am, I don't need Miss Laolin." In the past, it was common to follow the master Tiannan Haibei, and it was common to sleep in the open air. ”

Lin Xi nodded, not forced.

Immediately, she said: "When I get to Peixian, you will go back to find Zhuo Minghe." ”

"How's that going to work? The master instructed me to send Miss Lin safely, and then send Miss Lin back safely. Zhou Ke insisted.

Lin Xi said: "I have people I know in Pei County, they will protect me, nothing will happen." ”

Zhou Ke shook his head: "Miss Lin is kind, Zhou Ke understands." It's just that I have to listen to my master. ”

"Okay then." Lam Creek Road.

After speaking, Lin Xi began to wonder what the situation was on the Pei County side.

It's been so long, Wang Shou and the others should have already met with the people arranged by Shen Chen, right?

What did they do?

What is Shen Chen doing again?

The rebels and plague in Jinling, are they all solved?

Thinking of the plague, Lin Xi felt a little strange. Jinling is a big city, and it is usually smooth and rainy, and she and Shen Chen didn't see anything abnormal when they went, so why did the plague appear when it was cold?

Aren't there signs before the plague appears?

If you want Lin Xi to say, this plague has appeared too strangely.

Didn't you do it by those people from the old Chu relics in the city?

But what is their purpose in doing this?

Lin Xi couldn't figure it out, and when he had eaten and watched the horses rest, he asked Zhou Ke to go on the road.

Zhou Kecai turned over and turned back suddenly.

Lin Xi noticed it and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

Zhou Ke looked around hesitantly, the forest was quiet and silent. He said: "It's okay, maybe I'm suspicious and feel wrong." ”

When Lin Xi heard this, he didn't ask again, and immediately walked on the road.

Zhou Ke still looked back before leaving, feeling strange.

For a moment, he really felt as if someone was following them, but when he looked at it again, there was nothing unusual.

There are mountain bandits in the vicinity, and there can't be mountain bandits who are more powerful than his kung fu. Could it be that he was wrong?

Seeing that Lin Xi was far away, Zhou Ke followed up.

The speed of riding a horse is faster than the speed of driving a carriage.

Lin Xi originally expected that it would take four days for Wang Shou and them to get to Pei County quickly, but she didn't need to bring a few big carts of weapons like them, so she should be faster.

However, Lin Xi is not familiar with the road section, and she is not as good as Wang Shou and others who can ride a horse for a long time, she has been riding for less than a day and her legs and feet are sore, and she can't ride continuously, so she needs to stop and rest. In this way, I am afraid that it will take two more days.

At this time, the benefits of bringing Zhou Ke are revealed.

Zhou Ke knew a shortcut to Pei County, which could save a day's journey.

"It's just, Miss Lin, the road is very steep, I don't think you can stand it. It's better to go the way you set. ”

Zhou Ke saw that Lin Xi Bacheng was riding a horse for the first time, and he made a kind proposal.

As soon as Lin Xi heard that it was time-saving, he didn't care, gritted his teeth and said, "Just go your way!" I just need to rush to Pei County as soon as possible, and don't worry about the rest! ”

"Okay then."

Zhou Ke listened to Lin Xi's words, didn't say much, and turned to lead Lin Xi.

The two traveled day and night, and when they were tired of the journey, they stopped and slept for two hours, hurriedly filled their stomachs and continued.

Gradually, Zhou Ke was a little impressed by Lin Xi. Because Lin Xi never shouted tired, he didn't stop, and Lin Xi wouldn't stop, he could hold on better than a big man. But her face turned pale.

Zhou Ke thought to himself, he had never seen such a woman before.

He has amazing medical skills, is bold and intelligent, and can endure hardships.

He couldn't help but start to be a little curious, this Lin girl was thinking about what the Xianggong she had seen earlier was like day and night.

The two of them hurried quickly on the mountain road, and rarely rested. They set out in the early morning of the 23rd, and finally reached the boundary of Pei County on the night of the 27th.

Zhou Ke said: "The front is the official road. Half an hour before we followed the official road, we could see the county gate entrance of Pei County. But," he looked at Lin Xi, who was tired and his eyes were bloodshot, "Miss Lin, why don't you rest here?" ”

"No, I can. It's not too late to rest when you arrive in Pei County. ”

Lin Xi tugged on the reins with one hand, patted his face with the other, sobered up a little, and rode forward.

Zhou Ke had no choice but to follow.

The closer to Pei County, the more eager Lin Xi became.

I don't know if Wang Shou and the others are still in Pei County at the moment? Didn't Mo already enter Jinling to meet Shen Chen?

Half an hour later, the two finally saw the entrance of the county gate of Pei County.

In the past, I saw that the county gate was wide open, a little bleak, and there was no official who guarded the county.

"Strange, is this Peixian?"

Lin Xi stopped and looked up at the plaque above, and it did say that the word Pei County was not bad.

She and Zhou Ke glanced at each other suspiciously, slowly entered the horse, and looked around.

"What about the people who guard the county? Is there anyone nearby?! ”

Lin Xi raised her voice and shouted, and only her echo could be heard from the empty streets.

The night wind whistled and shivered.

Lin Xi jumped off the horse and looked solemn, "Why does this look like an empty county?" Zhou Ke, was this the same in Pei County before? ”

"It's not." Zhou Ke said, "Pei County is surrounded by mountains on three sides, and Jinling is connected on one side, and the location is a little remote, but the population is not many, and there are many people who come and go to do business. ”

Before the words fell, Zhou Ke turned his head and put his hand on the sword at his waist.

"Who?!"

Lin Xi followed the sound and looked.
