Chapter 52 Yan Guoxing

As soon as the sky was bright, Xiao Ting woke up Xing'er, left the palace alone with the sleepy-eyed little girl, and headed for Yan Kingdom.

After this night, Xiao Ting really didn't have the heart to accept King Chu Sheng's farewell ceremony again, so after he left a note for Chu Yao, he quietly took Xing'er on the road.

Along the way, Xing'er yawned and was listless; And Xiao Ting was also silent, not knowing what he was thinking.

Yan Kingdom is located in the south of the Cangjie, far away from the imperial city of Chu State, and if you are in a normal hurry, it will take at least half a month.

Walking out of the imperial city, about an hour or so, Xing'er finally came to his senses and stopped yawning. Xiao Ting smiled and asked, "Do you want to eat something before leaving?"

As he spoke, he took out some pastries from the package and handed them to Xing'er, and the two chatted while eating, slowly walking forward.

Xiao Ting asked in his heart: "Suo Suo, when we go to Yan Kingdom, how can we find the so-called most poisonous leaves and the most replenishing flowers?" You can't try them one by one like Shennong tasted a hundred herbs, right? ”

There was a hint of banter in Suo's voice: "I thought you would have to wait a few days to recover."

Xiao Ting smiled faintly and said, "There's nothing to slow down. I'm just a passerby, and there is destined to be no result between me and Chu Yao, so why should I think about it and provoke her? ”

Suo Suo pursed his lips and said, "Duplicity!"

Xiao Ting didn't want to explain more about this matter, so he diverted the topic and said, "Let's get serious!" How do I find the most poisonous leaves and the most tonic flowers? In the past two days, I have also looked through a lot of medical books and ancient books in the library of Chu State, but there is no definite conclusion on these two things. Otherwise, what should I do? ”

Suo Suo thought for a moment and replied, "It just so happens that you went to the Yan Kingdom as an envoy of the Chu State. It stands to reason that Yan Guo is going to hold a banquet to receive you. At the banquet, you can ask King Yan, or the Imperial Physician of Yan Kingdom and Dr. Taichang. After all, Yan Guo is the medicine capital in the Firmament Realm, maybe they will know about this. ”

Xiao Ting felt that what Suo Suo said made sense, so he nodded and agreed.

He Xing'er stopped and walked along the way, and Xiao Ting was not in a hurry. He took a map of the Celestial Realm, and according to the path on the map, he found a route along the road full of towns.

The main reason is that he is afraid that he will not be used to sleeping in the wilderness all the time, and in addition, he was frightened by the Emperor Extreme Realm monk sent by Jiang Taixu before, so he tried to get together with a lot of people along the way, which could also confuse the public and make him feel more secure.

A day later. Yunluo City, which is two hundred miles away from the imperial city of Chu.

Xiao Ting took Xing'er to walk in the most prosperous street market, Xing'er happily looked at the vendors on both sides, and asked Xiao Ting to buy him this and that from time to time. Xiao Ting smiled and did not refuse Xing'er's request.

"Brother Ting, do you think this hairpin looks good?" Xing'er held a purple hairpin in her small hand and asked Xiao Ting with a smile.

Xiao Ting looked at it and said with a smile: "It's good-looking!" It's perfect for the stars. Boss, how much does this hairpin cost? ”

The boss smiled and said, "Just a silver ingot."

Xiao Ting hurriedly took out a small gold ingot in his arms, and suddenly saw a delicate red step shake on the stall, his heart moved, and said, "Boss, I want this step shake too."

With that, he handed over the silver, grabbed the step, and left here with Xing'er.

Looking at Xing'er, who was a little tired, Xiao Ting thought about it, took Xing'er to find an inn to live in, and after dinner, the two rested separately.

Xiao Ting had a thought and received himself into the Soul Lock Palace.

Locked inside the dormitory.

Suo Suo looked at Xiao Ting boredly and said, "How long will it take to get to Yan Kingdom?"

Xiao Ting smiled and said, "It's early." It's only been 200 miles, at least half a month. We have to cross the entire Chu State, and then we can enter the territory of the Yan State in the south of the border. ”

Suo Suo nodded and said, "Okay." Don't let your guard down along the way. Then Jiang Taixu probably will send someone to kill you. ”

Xiao Ting nodded, wanting to say something, but hesitated slightly.

Seeing this, Suo Suo asked, "Is there something wrong?"

Xiao Ting smiled and said: "It's nothing, it's just that when I helped Xing'er buy a hairpin just now, I saw a red jade agate step shake, and I thought it was very suitable for you, so I bought it."

As he spoke, he took out a step shake from his arms and handed it to the lock.

Suo Suo was a little stunned, looked at Xiao Ting with a strange look in his eyes, and did not speak.

Xiao Ting was a little embarrassed by the lock, and coughed lightly: "If you don't like it, forget it."

As he spoke, he put it away.

"Put it on for me!" Lock said suddenly.

"What?" Xiao Ting asked suspiciously.

"I bought it, I said help me put it on!" Suo Lock glared and repeated.

"Uh-oh." Xiao Ting heard it clearly, and hurriedly walked to the lock, carefully inserting the step on her bun.

The bright red agate swaying, paired with the lock lock and a red coat, looks particularly suitable.

Xiao Ting took a step back, looked at the lock, and sighed sincerely: "It's so beautiful!"

Hearing this, the corners of Suosuo's mouth turned up slightly, and he asked, "Are you talking about Bu Shao, or this queen and me?"

Xiao Ting smiled and said, "What I said, of course it is...... Step Shake! Ha ha! ”

Suo Suo said angrily: "Get out!"

Xiao Ting smiled, and his figure disappeared into the Soul Locking Hall.

When Xiao Ting left, Suo Suo silently stroked the red jade agate on his bun, not knowing what he was thinking.

In the early morning of the next day, Xiao Ting, who had breakfast, was about to hurry again with Xing'er, but heard the sound of a team of carriages and horses behind. Xiao Ting didn't care, so he was about to continue walking, but he heard a voice calling out to him.

"Brother Tingxiao, please stay!"

Xiao Ting couldn't help but be a little surprised when he heard this, because he heard that the owner of the voice was none other than the deputy general of the Imperial City Army who had a relationship with him, Ning Kai.

It was Jiang Guo's fine work that he took him to exterminate at the beginning.

Ning Kai led a small team of carriages and horses to Xiao Ting's side. Ning Kai turned over and dismounted, clasped his fists and saluted: "Ning Kai has seen the envoy!"

Xiao Ting was stunned when he heard this: "What adult?"

Ning Kai said with a smile: "Brother Tingxiao, you are the envoy of my lord King Chu, and you sent an envoy to Yan Kingdom to share the worries of the king, but the great yuan of the third grade, the last general is just the deputy general of the Imperial City Army, and he is the fourth grade, so he naturally wants to salute when he sees the lord."

Xiao Ting was dumbfounded. Later, he didn't explain much in this detail, and asked, "Vice General Ning, what are you?"

Ning Kai replied: "Originally, the King of Chu planned to personally see off the envoy, but unexpectedly, the lord quietly left the city by himself. Therefore, the king of Chu will lead a team of men and horses to chase after the adults in the starry night and protect the safety of the adults along the way. My lord, please get on the sedan chair. ”
