An hour later, the ox cart stopped, and Wei Ji immediately jumped out of the cart. In front of me is a canyon, in the gap of the mountain, the mountain walls on both sides are towering, straight as a sword, looking up seems to go straight into the sky, at this time the sun is sinking in the west, the sky is about to twilight, and the distance is gray.

As Wei Ji looked around, the coachman yelled at what was going on. Three strong men walked out of the canyon, burly and armed with spears, and they were not easy to look at. The coachman and the three people were talking, in the vernacular, Wei Ji couldn't understand, seeing the three of them turn their heads, the alarm bell in their hearts was loud, thinking: Could it be that Sima Pi deliberately scolded me and thought that my identity had been exposed, Sima Pi was going to kill people

Looking up, just in time to see one of them lifting the spear in her direction, Wei Ji's heart shook violently, and a spirit turned around and ran.

"Don't run."

The coachman and the brawny man each shouted.

Wei Jiao's heart was in a mess, a layer of fine sweat appeared on her forehead, seeing that there was a bend in the mountain road ahead, she pulled her legs and rushed over, and crashed into the arms of a person head-on, she reached out and pushed it in a panic, but her wrist was grabbed by a pair of powerful hands.

"Yudu!"

Wei Xuan was stunned, raised her head, and met Xie Xuan's eyes in disbelief. He was dressed in azure clothes, with trimmed eyebrows and handsome eyes, and an elegant bearing.

"Why are you here?" the two asked almost in unison.

Xie Xuan's face turned grim, and he asked behind Wei Xuan, "What's the matter?"

The coachman came panting, followed by three strong men, and he said to Wei Ji: "Why did Lang Jun run away suddenly, he couldn't catch up." ”

Wei Ji had already realized that there might be a misunderstanding at this time, licked her dry lips, and asked, "You guys were going to do it just now."

The coachman and the strong man shook their heads and shouted injustice, and one of the older strong men slapped the young man next to him on the head, "It's all you who shot just now, so that this little Langjun misunderstood." ”

The man covered the back of his head and said, "It's not that my hands are sore, I want to change my hands." ”

Wei Ji suddenly felt suspicious all the way, so she was shocked. Knowing that it was indeed a misunderstanding, she let out a sigh of relief, she ran all the way just now, her legs were a little weak, and when she relaxed at this moment, she almost couldn't stand.

Xie Xuan supported her, motioned for the strong man to retreat, and asked why Wei Ji was here.

The coachman said on the side: "This Lang Jun is a messenger sent by His Royal Highness. ”

Xie Xuan's face changed when he heard this, and he looked at Wei Xuan.

Wei Ji took out the letter to him.

Xie Xuan took it, but he didn't open it, his expression was solemn, and he said, "How could His Highness let you come, you...... Do you know what this place is?"

Wei Ji still hasn't touched her head yet, the three strong men who came from the canyon just now looked at Yongwu, but they were not like ordinary guards, she was also worried in her heart, and said: "I just send the letter, I don't care." ”

Xie Xuan's eyebrows folded slightly, and he looked at her with a disapproving expression and said: "You don't follow Zhao Lin Xuexuan in Yuzhang, why follow King Langya to Jiankang You are still young, wait for the weak crown to enter the office, don't worry about the future, why be short-sighted and rush to drill the camp"

He preached with a straight face, and his handsome face became a little old-fashioned.

Wei Ji was bored, and couldn't help but think that he had spoken to her like this in his previous life, but after too long, he couldn't remember what he said, probably the two had different opinions, and he was like this. She pursed her lips and said, "Brother Xie has traveled back and forth to the Langya Mansion many times, and he came here again in private, but I just sent a letter, and the skill of drilling the camp is far inferior to Brother Xie." ”

She said it politely, Xie Xuan was stunned, and immediately said: "I didn't mean that, you don't know that this matter is dangerous." ”

Wei Ji said impatiently: "Your Highness has told me to do it, if you don't have a letter that I need to bring back, I will go back first." ”

Xie Xuan hurriedly grabbed her, "It's dark, how can I go down the mountain." ”

As he spoke, the last rays of afterglow faded away, and the twilight of the mountains surrounded him, and the mountain road was already hidden in the forest. The coachman gave two instructions, and the strong men galloped away, and soon came with torches. said: "Xie Jialangjun, it's getting dark, let's go back to Wubao first." ”

Wei Ji looked at the night mountain forest was completely different from the daytime, and there were strange shadows in the darkness, as if there was some strange beast hidden. In such a situation, she really couldn't travel at night.

Xie Xuan saw that she was muffled and didn't speak, so he softened his voice and said, "Yudu, I was too eager to say the wrong thing just now, you are elegant and open-minded, don't worry about me." ”

Wei Ji knew that she couldn't go down the mountain, and she had to listen to Xie Xuan's arrangement, so she couldn't pull her face anymore, and said, "It's better to talk in a safe place." ”

The strong man led the way in front with a torch, and Xie Xuan asked Wei Ji questions such as "How did you come on the road", "Are you hungry", "Are you thirsty" and so on. The group turned back from the mountain road, and Wei Ji didn't pay attention when he came, it turned out that there was a dock fort in the valley, and it had been lit at this time. When Xie Xuan and his entourage walked in, the attendant immediately opened the door to greet them.

Xie Xuan gave a few words to the attendants, then turned his head and said to Wei Ji: "This place is simple, it can't compare to the city, and I will wronged you tonight." ”

Wei Ji smiled dryly: "It's okay. ”

The strong man brought the man in, turned around and left. Wei Ji felt strange that he didn't live in the dock fort, and there were other places to live in the mountain

She looked thoughtful, Xie Xuan saw it in her eyes, and didn't say anything, just asked the servants to bring some food and drink first.

There were two floors of the dock fort, but there were not many servants, and soon the house was lit with lights, and someone went to boil water and serve tea. Xie Xuan only took out the letter at this time, and Wei Ji saw that he was concentrating on reading the letter, got up and walked around, observed the surroundings, and found that there was not even a maid in the dock fort except for the servants and guards.

Wei Ji was strange in her heart, Xie Daocang had just gotten married not long ago, and it stands to reason that the Xie family was preparing for Xie Xuan's marriage at this time

The servant brought the meal, which was very simple, a steamed fish, two plates of vegetarian vegetables, a bowl of noodle soup, and a plate of fresh fruit. Xie Xuan explained: "It is inconvenient to drive here, and there is little food, so let's stop first. ”

Wei Ji wiped her hands, didn't say anything, sat down and took chopsticks and ate.

After the two of them finished eating and cleaned up, Xie Xuan summoned the servants to give a few more instructions, which was to settle Wei Jiao's residence tonight.

Wei Ji listened from the sidelines, quietly.

Xie Xuan turned his face, and saw her well-behaved appearance, but her mood was a little complicated, and she said in her heart that King Langya sent her to deliver the letter, there is something profound, the stakes are very high, and the person who can come and go here should be King Langya's henchmen, but Wei Jiao, a young Langjun who has not yet reached the age of entering the office, suddenly became King Langya's confidant. She looked around all the way, and he saw all the suspicious looks in his eyes, and he obviously didn't know anything. Xie Xuan also had a trace of remorse, just now he was in a hurry, saying that she was short-sighted and her words were too harsh.

"Yudu," Xie Xuan said, "rest here for the night, and I'll send you out of the mountain early tomorrow morning." ”

Wei Ji nodded and said, "Okay." ”

Xie Xuan had a lot of doubts in his heart, and he wanted to say more words to her, and asked about her situation in Jiankang.

Wei Ji didn't want to say more, so she said a few perfunctory words, covered her lips and yawned, saying that she was too tired to rest.

Xie Xuan called a servant to take her to rest.

After a while, a man eight feet tall and wearing a samurai uniform strode in, this person had a dark complexion, his face was flushed with purple red, and his appearance was extremely strange and ugly, he turned his head and looked around, "Hey, I heard that His Highness's messenger is coming, he is a beautiful man, where is it?"

Xie Xuan said: "It's just a message, you don't have to see it." ”

The man said: "If you can deliver a message to Your Highness here, it is the humerus of the heart, maybe there will be contacts in the officialdom in the future, and you have to recognize your face familiarly." ”

Xie Xuan didn't answer his words, and instead asked, "How is it inside?"

After the man sat down, he collapsed directly on the seat, "There are a lot of people mixed in, and I have been severely trained for a few days, just wait for these people to jump out by themselves when they can't bear it, and then wait." ”

Xie Xuan nodded, took out the letter again, and pushed it to the man to show him.

After reading it, the man smiled and said twice, "Yin Hao is going to lose, I have expected it a long time ago." ”

The two discussed the situation of the Northern Expedition, and the man knocked on the side for a few more words, but Xie Xuan didn't mention which Langjun sent the letter, the man was puzzled in his heart, and shouted boring and tired in his mouth, and got up and went out.

Xie Xuan read the book for a while before going to bed, and it was usually like this, but tonight he was a little troubled in his heart, and he didn't read the content of the book for a long time.

The night is like water, and the night is full of charm.

Xie Xuan was lying on the bed tossing and turning, the gentleman cultivated himself, and he was depressed in his heart, just because the little Langjun was sleeping in the room next to him.

After staying up for a long time, drowsiness gradually rose, and he soon fell into a hazy dream.

He stood in a hall, looked up on the plaque and wrote "Leave the country to sit and forget", Xie Xuan looked at the four words, and said in his heart: It turned out to be a Taoist temple, and he didn't feel strange in his dreams, as if he had experienced it many times. He turned around and left the temple, entered the courtyard at the back, and followed the path to the door of the most remote courtyard at the back.

Xie Xuan stopped suddenly. His feet were heavy like lead, and he couldn't take that step anyway.

Like a dream is not a dream, it seems to be waking up but not waking up, Xie Xuan is very awake at the moment, knowing that he is in a dream, but this dream is so real, his body is heavy, and his heart is even more painful.

He looked up at the wooden door, his heart burning and panicking.

Xie Xuan didn't know where this panic came from.

Pushed.

There was a voice urging from the bottom of my heart.

Xie Xuan had an intuition that the consequences of pushing away were terrible. He had a smooth life, he was born in the Xie family, he became famous at a young age, and he was treated as a guest wherever he went, what could be in the world that made him so panicked.

He reached out and pushed the door open with all his might, taking a step forward with all his might.

In the courtyard stood a woman with her back to him. Xie Xuan only looked at her back, his heart was hammered again and again, his body stiffened for a moment, and then he strode forward and put it on the woman's shoulder.

She slowly turned her head.

A blazing fire suddenly came, enveloping the woman, Xie Xuan's headache was splitting, and his heart was burned to barrenness.

Xie Xuan suddenly opened his eyes in the dark, and woke up sweating profusely, he gasped, the dream just now was not the first time, but this was the first time he pushed the door open.

His heart was beating rapidly, and Xie Xuan was at a loss for a while.

At this moment, there was the sound of Jin Ge striking each other outside the door, Xie Xuan's eyes tightened, and he immediately came back to his senses - something happened.

The minions' screams pierced the night sky like sharp blades. The sound of fighting outside became more intense.

Xie Xuan turned over, did not put on a coat, but raised his hand to hold the sword hanging on the wall in his hand, pushed the door out, and rushed to the next room without hesitation.

Wei Ji has always slept lightly outside and is very alert, and she woke up when there was an abnormal sound outside.

She put on her coat and leaned in front of the door to listen for the movement, and soon heard that someone was breaking into the dock fort.

I shouted bad in my heart.

If you don't come early or late, why do you want to break in when she comes.

Wei Ji scolded fiercely, and in an instant she figured out a lot of things - there were soldiers hidden in the canyon.

Sima Pi and Xie planned privately, and actually practiced here, when the ox cart stopped here, and there were strong men with guns guarding the gateway of the canyon, even Xie Xuan stayed in the dock fort and did not leave, if there were not soldiers in the valley, why bother with many checkpoints.

In such a confidential place, it is no wonder that Xie Xuan had a strange face when he saw her.

After Wei Ji figured it out, she felt even more big, there were already people fighting outside, and she paced back and forth in the house, making it difficult to judge what the situation was outside.

At this time, Xie Xuan's voice came, "Yudu, open the door." ”

Wei Ji breathed a sigh of relief, opened the door, and saw Xie Xuan wearing a single coat, holding a sword in his hand, and coming in with a cold night breeze, she was a little surprised, and then she immediately asked: "How many people have come from outside, and the garrison in the valley will come to help?"

She asked a few questions, but there was no response, she couldn't help frowning, and when she looked up, Xie Xuan stared at her in a daze.

The author has something to say:

Chapter 167: Chapter 166: Flaws

Xie Xuan rushed into the house just now, and saw Wei Ji dressed neatly but her hair was scattered.

This Wei Xiaolangjun already has a hibiscus jade face, and his hair is scattered, and he looks more and more like a girl. The heart in his chest jumped uncontrollably, and his gaze almost froze when it fell on her, especially when she turned her face slightly, and the curvature of her jaw and neck gave him a strong sense of familiarity.

Xie Xuan's heart was beating like thunder, his breathing was a little short, and he could barely take his eyes off.

Wei Ji frowned, her expression was displeased, and her eyes were even colder.

Xie Xuan was stabbed by that gaze, and he became more and more indescribably familiar, and he reached out in a ghostly manner, pinching her chin and skimming her face to the side, trying to see her back when she was slightly back.

Smack-

A slap slammed into his face, Wei Ji gritted his teeth and said, "What are you crazy about?"
