She cleared her throat and continued:

"I am different from my father, my father was able to enter the court as an official through the imperial examination, and he is a serious literati."

"But because of the influence of my mother, I started practicing martial arts since I was a child, and I yearn for life in the rivers and lakes."

"However, my father is reluctant to let me go to the rivers and lakes, he thinks the rivers and lakes are too dangerous, and I have no experience, so I am easily victimized by traitors."

"So I had to choose a compromise to convince my dad."

"Thinking about it, I think the most suitable way is to become a brocade guard!"

"After becoming a Jinyiwei, you can not only roam the rivers and lakes, but also have the identity of Jinyiwei and the protection of your uncles, so it is obviously a good compromise."

"After talking to my father, my father still disagreed at first, thinking that Jinyiwei was too dangerous, but in the end he couldn't resist me, so he had to allow me to enter Jinyiwei."

"I think that although the life of Jinyiwei is dangerous, it is better than staying in the house without leaving the door."

"And not only that, joining Jinyiwei can also improve my cultivation through actual combat."

"So, I never regret my decision to join Jinyiwei in the first place!"

Hearing each other's answers, Long Falcon and Tao Changwu also recalled the past, and the two looked at each other and smiled, obviously understanding Ding Zhilan's choice very well.

The dragon falcon smiled and said:

"Zhilan, I still remember that when you first entered the Jinyi Guard, Xiangye greeted almost all the high-level officials in the Jinyi Guard, let us be sure to protect you."

"And he also sent a letter to His Majesty, asking you to start directly from a thousand households, so as to reduce the probability of you going to the battlefield as much as possible."

Ding Zhilan recalled the past and couldn't help but feel a little helpless: "My father is like this, he feels that the rivers and lakes are dangerous, and he is afraid that I will be hurt by gangsters, so he is unwilling to let me get involved with the rivers and lakes." ”

Tao Changwu laughed: "Zhilan, don't complain about Xiangye, Jinyiwei is indeed dangerous, we all came out of the bloody storm, Xiangye doesn't want you to enter the Jinyiwei system, but also for your safety." ”

Long Falcon recalled the original situation again, and said with a smile: "But Xiangye still can't resist you in the end, so he has to let you start by trying 100 households, which can be regarded as choosing a compromise plan again." ”

Ding Zhilan also smiled: "Yes, directly become a thousand households, what is this?" ”

"The most annoying thing about my dad on weekdays is bullying, but isn't his behavior still a disguised bully?"

"If I just entered the Jinyi Guard system and directly became a thousand households, what would other people think of me?"

"So, I still hope to start from the lowest lieutenant and go up step by step."

"But my father didn't agree, and I knew that my father was for my good, so I finally chose a compromise plan and started by trying 100 households."

Long Falcon said with a smile on his face: "But even if you serve as a test hundred, you still have to go to the battlefield in person every time, and we uncles and uncles can't do anything about you." ”

"I joined Jinyiwei for actual combat, if I don't go to the battlefield in person, then it is completely meaningless to join Jinyiwei......" Ding Zhilan pursed her lips, looking playful.

After a few more chats, Ding Zhilan suddenly remembered something and said:

"By the way, Uncle Long, Uncle Tao, there is something I have to tell the two uncles in advance."

Long Falcon and Tao Changwu couldn't help but be a little strange: "What's the matter?" ”

Ding Zhilan replied: "My father told me some time ago that he thinks it is too dangerous for me to fight and kill every day in the Jinyiwei system, so he wants me to leave Jinyiwei. ”

"I also think that after exercising in Jinyiwei for several years, it's really time to go back, after all, I always stay here, and I have to trouble my uncles to take care of it, I'm really embarrassed."

"So, I may soon leave Jinyiwei and return to my father."

"Thank you for the care of the two uncles in the past few years, this kindness, Zhilan will always remember in her heart!"

Hearing each other's words, Long Falcon and Tao Changwu were both shocked.

After being silent for a while, Long Falcon smiled and took the lead in speaking:

"Zhilan, no matter what, we respect your decision, if there is anything you need our help with in the future, please let us know!"

Tao Changwu also smiled and said: "Zhilan, you are serious, we have watched you grow up since childhood, and we all treat you as our own niece, so it is natural to take care of you." ”

At this time, Long Falcon added: "Changwu is right, we have long regarded you as our niece, so even if Xiangye doesn't explain, we will definitely take care of you." ”

Listening to the words of the two uncles, Ding Zhilan only felt like a spring breeze, and her heart was extremely warm.

A few people chatted, and the day passed quickly.

When night fell, everyone came to the outside of Pingxian County, and Luoyan Mountain was not far ahead.

Feeling the plummeting temperature in the winter night, Long Falcon thought about it and said to Tao Changwu and Ding Zhilan: "Changwu, Zhilan, why don't we rest for one night in the post station in the county and go up the mountain tomorrow morning?" ”

Tao Changwu and Ding Zhilan both agreed, and the brocade guards then patted their horses into the county seat, walked through the streets of the county seat, and came to live in the post station.

……

Seeing a group of Jinyi guards entering the county seat, Li Xuanyi and Shangguan Yun also decided to stay in the county seat for one night first, and then enter the mountain early tomorrow morning.

After all, winter nights are a bit chilly.

The two followed the brocade guards to the vicinity of the post station and watched them enter the post station.

Then, Li Xuanyi exhaled and said:

"Sister Yun'er, why don't we find an inn near the post station, so that it will be much more convenient tomorrow morning."

"Okay, I'll listen to Brother Xuanyi." Shangguan Yun smiled sweetly and agreed.

The two then led the horse to a nearby inn, and under the guidance of the innkeeper, they led the horse to the manger at the back of the store, and then went upstairs, and after asking for some food, they began to have dinner.

After dinner, the two returned to the room, and after chatting for a while, they washed up and lay down under the covers.

Because they were going into the mountains early tomorrow morning, the two fell asleep quickly.

Early the next morning, Li Xuanyi and Shangguan Yun finished washing, and after eating some breakfast in the inn lobby, they led the horse out of the inn, just in time to see the brocade guards also coming out of the post station.

Li Xuanyi was happy, he didn't expect the time to be so coincidental, so he didn't have to wait in the cold wind anymore.

The two immediately turned on their horses, followed Jin Yiwei's team out of the county seat, and galloped towards Luoyan Mountain not far away.

Soon, the two came to the foot of Luoyan Mountain.

Standing at the foot of the mountain, Li Xuanyi looked up and saw that the mountain peaks in front of him were towering into the clouds, and the mountains were covered with thick snow, shining under the warm winter sun.

The whole mountain is like a silver dragon across the sky, and it looks extremely majestic.

Looking at the endless and majestic Luoyan Mountain in front of him, he was a little stunned for a while.

Outside the Zhengshen object, Shangguan Yun on the side suddenly pointed in a direction and said:

"Brother Xuanyi, let's go into the mountain quickly."

"Look, Sister Zhilan, they have already entered the mountain, we have to follow quickly!"

Hearing Shangguan Yun's words, Li Xuanyi looked in the direction she pointed, and sure enough, he found that several brocade guards in the distance were stepping on the thick snow and walking towards the mountain.

However, because those brocade guards were in a hurry to enter the mountain, and the distance between them and Li Xuanyi was a little too far, they didn't notice Li Xuanyi and Shangguan Yun behind them.

Soon, the figures of these brocade guards disappeared into the white mountain forest.

"Okay, then let's go into the mountains."

Seeing this situation, Li Xuanyi did not delay any longer, immediately turned over and dismounted, and after tying the horse to the big tree beside him, he took Shangguan Yun and walked in the direction where the brocade guards had just disappeared.

Because Li Xuanyi and Shangguan Yun sped up, the two soon saw the figure of the group of brocade guards again.

The two of them followed the brocade guards from a distance, stepping on the thick snow, and walking towards the mountain one foot deep and one foot shallow.

However, due to the complexity of Luoyan Mountain, and Li Xuanyi and Shangguan Yun have no tracking experience.

Therefore, not surprisingly, the two finally lost the group of brocade guards.

Standing in place, looking at the snow-covered trees around him, Li Xuanyi couldn't help but feel a little worried.

Ding Zhilan They are their only navigator in Luoyan Mountain, but they have lost them now, so where should they go next?

"Brother Xuanyi, why don't you fly to the sky to find out Sister Zhilan's traces?" Seeing that the lover was worried, Shangguan Yun suggested softly.

"Flying......

Li Xuanyi couldn't help but fall into deep thought, and after a moment, he made a decision:

"Forget it, the flying technique is too consuming of true energy, and the Luoyan Mountain is full of dangers, and there may be a fierce battle at any time."

"So, just in case, let's move on."

"Okay, I'll listen to Brother Xuanyi~" Shangguan Yun smiled and responded sweetly.

So, the two of them continued to walk forward.

After walking for a while, Li Xuanyi suddenly smelled a strong smell of blood.

He couldn't help but be wary, and whispered to Shangguan Yun beside him, "Sister Yun'er, do you smell a smell of blood?" ”

Shangguan Yun also smelled this strange smell of blood, and replied with some palpitations:

"Brother Xuanyi, I smell it too, do you remember...... What was the scene of Wangjia Village at the beginning? ”

Of course, Li Xuanyi has not forgotten the tragic scene like hell on earth:

"Of course I remember that the beasts slaughtered the entire village and disemboweled, so we smelled a very strong smell of blood before we reached the entrance of the village."

"However, the smell of blood is far less strong than it was at the time, and I don't know what the situation is."

“…… Brother Xuanyi, let's go further......"

Hearing Lover's words and recalling the tragic situation in Wangjia Village, Shangguan Yun couldn't help but shudder.

Then, she pulled out the long sword at her waist and pursed her mouth, looking very nervous.

Seeing Shangguan Yun so nervous, Li Xuanyi gently touched her hair and said softly:

"Sister Yun'er, don't be nervous, no matter what, with me, even if there is a man-eating devil in front, I will cut off its head!"

Feeling the temperature from the palm of the lover's hand, Shangguan Yun's tense body relaxed slightly.

Then, with their swords in hand, the two continued to walk forward.
