Yebei Cheng drove his horse out of the city gate, and soon caught up with the guards of the White Mansion.

The White Mansion called almost all the men and horses, including the handymen and men in the family.

Curiously, they did not carry swords, but each of them carried a shovel or hoe.

They seemed to be in a hurry, and they didn't stop driving their horses for a moment, if it weren't for the fast pace of the night north, I am afraid that they would not be able to catch up for a while and a half.

Ye Beicheng caught up, stopped one of the guards, and asked, "Where are you adults?" ”

The guards of the White Mansion all knew Ye Beicheng, so in the face of his interception, the guards had to stop the reins and said in a hurried tone: "My lord went out early in the morning. ”

Ye Beicheng continued: "Where did you go? Do you have someone with you? ”

The guard said truthfully: "The adults left alone before going out, and as for where they went, the subordinates don't know." ”

Ye Beicheng knew that the guards did not dare to deceive, so he asked, "Where are you going?" What happened? ”

The guard said: "After receiving an urgent order, all the people and horses in Baifu were dispatched to Yunxi Town to support. ”

Ye Beicheng frowned slightly, and his uneasy premonition became stronger and stronger: "Support? What happened? ”

The guard said: "I heard that there was a flash flood, but the subordinates don't know ...... specifics."

After speaking, the guard's face was a little anxious.

"If it's okay, please let your subordinates go...... If we don't arrive in time, my subordinates will probably be punished......"

Ye Beicheng waved his hand and let the guards leave first, he was stunned for a moment, and then quickly followed on his horse.

On the way to Yunxi Town, his heart was up and down, and he couldn't calm down.

Mountain torrents......

How is it a flash flood again......

Lin Shuang'er mentioned to him that her brother was buried in the torrent.

She said that once a person encounters him, there are no bones left, and no matter what, he cannot escape......

"No...... ...... who won't have an accident" Ye Beicheng kept comforting himself.

But his reason was telling him over and over again that if it was just an ordinary torrent, Bai Yutang would not be so nervous, so nervous that he would not hesitate to mobilize all the horses in the mansion to support......

He knows Bai Yutang's temperament best, no one's life or death can touch him, he is a naturally cold-blooded smiling tiger, but why does he attach so much importance to it this time......

I remembered what Lin Shuang'er said to him last night.

She said: "I still remember a vow made by the prince at the beginning, I said that if the prince broke his promise one day, Shuang'er would die for the prince and not enter reincarnation for the prince, but I don't live a good life now......"

Somehow, when Ye Beicheng thought of this sentence now, his heart was extremely flustered.

In his life, he never believed in ghosts and gods, only believed that people would conquer the sky, so the poisonous oath at the beginning was just a joke casually to make Lin Shuang'er feel at ease......

At this moment, the oath came to his mind very clearly.

He once said: "In the future, my husband will not let you suffer......"

"In the future, the husband will only be better to you......"

He promised to always protect her, always love her, not let her be hurt, and always believe in her......

But now, he has broken all his promises......

He didn't protect her well, he left her bruised, he didn't trust her unconditionally, he let her down......

He still remembered that Lin Shuang'er said to him with a smile on her face: "My aunt said, if you pull the hook, you have made an oath, and if your husband violates the oath in the future, you will be punished~"

He smiled and asked her, "What retribution?" ”

She said: "You will lose your loved ones, and you will be lonely for ...... whole life"

He didn't know why he recalled these jokes so clearly at this time, but the throbbing pain in his heart became more and more intense.

"Frost...... Wait for me, you must wait for me......" He jerked his whip and sped up.

Finally arrived at Yunxi Town.

Because of the collapse of the mountain, the originally flat road has become an unattainable mountain, and the team cannot cross it, so they can only take a detour.

Ye Beicheng followed the team around the collapsed mountain, and when he came to the entrance of the village, he saw a group of villagers holding shovels and constantly digging the soil from a distance, and one of the figures was particularly familiar.

It turned out to be Bai Yutang......

He remembered that Bai Yutang had always been a meticulous person towards him, but now, he was covered in mud, his hair was messy, his hands were stained with blood, and he was extremely embarrassed......

It's a big shortcut from his noble and handsome image in the past!

The uneasy emotions in his heart were infinitely magnified at this moment, he turned over and dismounted, and approached Bai Yutang with heavy steps.

Bai Yutang, who had always been vigilant, didn't notice the approach of Ye Beicheng, he was like a soulless puppet, constantly waving a shovel and frantically digging the dirt in front of him.

Seeing that so many reinforcements suddenly came, an old man stepped forward and persuaded: "Childe, don't dig, you've been digging for a day, rest." ”

Bai Yutang was stunned, as if he was tired.

Seeing that he didn't listen to the persuasion, the old man stopped persuading, and another villager stepped forward to pull the old man away, and said, "Don't persuade him, it is estimated that his wife is buried underneath, and if her body cannot be dug up, this son will not stop." ”

Ye Beicheng froze in place.

At this moment, he seemed to have guessed something but did not dare to verify it.

The guards around him all picked up shovels and hoes and went forward to dig, but Ye Beicheng was stunned in place, as if he had lost his soul.

It took him a long time to regain his voice.

"Bai Yutang, what about Shuang'er......"

Hearing Ye Beicheng's voice, Bai Yutang moved, and his tall and slender figure stiffened in place.

He turned slowly and looked at the person standing behind him, his tall body trembling.

She ...... She...... I...... I don't know, I really don't know......" He seemed to be so stimulated that he couldn't calm down at the moment, and his hoarse voice was tinged with a hint of trembling.

He said incoherently, "I don't know if she is waiting at the foot of the mountain...... I wasn't there for her at the time of the landslide......"

Ye Beicheng stepped forward, grabbed his collar, and asked angrily, "I didn't ask you this!" I only ask you, where have you taken my people? ”

Bai Yutang knelt on the ground in pain and said over and over again: "I...... I was just afraid that she would be hungry and thirsty, I just wanted to go into the village and find something to eat for her, I didn't think there would be a landslide......"

"I was wrong, I shouldn't have left her there, I shouldn't have told her to wait for me at the bottom of the mountain...... It's all my fault, it's my fault......" The former demeanor was completely gone, Bai Yutang seemed to have lost seven souls and six souls, and his eyes were flowing with flickering pain, which was irrepressible heartache.

"What are you talking about......" Yebei staggered back a few steps, and all the stubbornness fell apart at this moment.

The villagers beside him couldn't stand it anymore, and stepped forward to persuade: "This son, don't blame him, this flash flood is not his fault, it is a natural disaster, that girl did not escape, it is her life......"
