Shunyin himself did not rest, walked around to check, barely let go of an inch, and in a blink of an eye noticed that there was a piece of ground that seemed to be extremely upright, walked over and stared, and suddenly pulled out a dagger from his waist with one hand, squatted down, and dug up the piece of soil hard.

After a few clicks, the dagger showed a charred mark, and she stopped, picked up a piece of dirt and looked at it carefully.

It was indeed charred black, as if it had been roasted by fire, but it was covered up, and it was specially trampled on tightly, so this piece looked so upright.

Shun Yin put away the dagger, got up, and walked slowly along the four steps again.

One of the nearest guards was worried about the danger, and reminded: "Madame must not stay in one place for a long time, if you want to find something, you may as well tell me to wait and find it." ”

She said, "Look around for horseshoe prints." ”

The guards immediately dispersed to investigate.

Shun Yin glanced back at the blackened marks on the ground, walked back, and covered the soil again.

This is indeed a trace of fire roasting, the soldiers and horses of the nomads are not like the soldiers and horses of the Han people, and they are not good at burying pots to make rice, and they mostly roast meat with fire.

It's just that there is little rain and strong wind here, and this covered place is blown away by the wind, and it is still different from the ground next to it when you look closely.

No other traces of the fire were found, and Shun Yin thought to herself that either out of caution or that there were not many people following Heshesi.

Just finished thinking about it, a guard came quickly: "Madam, I found it." ”

She immediately followed, and sure enough, she saw a string of horseshoe prints clearly left on the ground.

She looked at the direction, to the east, as if all the way to the Central Plains, but she looked back at the place where the fire was roasted, and felt that it was wrong, although the soil here was softer, but it was not enough to leave such a clear horseshoe print, it could only be intentional.

She has already learned that she has been practicing this day in her heart all these years, and she can't miss any of them.

She turned and got on her horse: "Go backwards." ”

The guards mounted and followed, and the team stepped over the gravel and went out, and in a few moments, the two guards who had been on guard on the left and the right followed again.

Shunyin turned around: "There is movement again?" ”

The guard on the right replied: "Yes, there is the sound of horses' hooves again, but it doesn't sound heavy." ”

Shun Yin had already seen that they were all specially selected elites, and they were extremely alert and disciplined, since it was said that the sound of horses' hooves was not heavy, it meant that there were not many people, but in case it was not good for the people and horses sent by He Shesi, it was inevitable that he would startle the snake, and immediately patted the horse forward: "According to what I said before, lead to the front and hold it." ”

Fast horses galloped, and a long and narrow town appeared in the eye.

The people quickly came to the vicinity of the town, stopped and dismounted, and led the horses apart, and went into the town in groups of three or five, and half of them made a detour to find other entrances, as if they had not come from the same road at all, but went their own way.

A guest house in the town, old and simple, the rammed courtyard wall at the entrance has been eroded by the wind, but it is still spacious, and there are no other guests.

Shunyin led the horse to check in, did not rush to the guest room, only stood in the corner of the front yard, and pulled up the cloak and hood on his body.

The guards who had separated into the town had gathered here one after another, and had sent the men and servants in the inn, and had set up in various branches in the front yard, almost in a circle.

Faintly in the background, he heard the sound of the hoofs of the horses chasing him, and came closer and closer, until he entered the courtyard of the inn.

Shun Yin's hand raised slightly, and the guards poured out silently, rushing up, about to draw their knives.

Rushing in quickly, the person hurriedly said: "Sister, it's me!" ”

The guards hurriedly stopped, and the hands of the knives were retracted.

Shun Yin took off his hood, only to see that it was Feng Wujian who came, and immediately stepped forward quickly, and suppressed his voice: "Why are you here?" ”

Feng Wujian got off the horse, took the cloak on his body, looked around, Fang Cai's action was too fast, if he hadn't reacted quickly, he would have been quietly dragged off the horse, and whispered: "When you said that day, I knew that you would come out by yourself, how could you not come?" ”

Shun Yin glanced left and right, knowing that this was not the place to speak, and turned around with a cold face and said, "You come with me." ”

Feng Wuji hurriedly handed over the horse to the guards and followed her.

The two of them entered the backyard one after the other, and the men and servants who were sent over were so busy that they didn't even notice any movement in the front yard.

After entering the guest room, Shun Yin turned around and said in a low voice: "You are injured and have not recovered, how can you follow at this time?" ”

Feng Wujian took a step closer and specially moved his shoulder to show her: "Sister, don't worry, I just lost a lot of blood before I was lying like that, it's really no big deal." Afraid that she would say it again, he was busy and said in a low voice, "The things you explained to me have also been done, and the day before yesterday, I had arranged for an expedited horse to send all the border defense situations to Chang'an, and I came to look for you." Fortunately, you didn't rush too fast all the way, and although I didn't get as good as you to investigate, I still found the traces you left and caught up. ”

Shun Yin knew that he would rather go faster, and his voice was softer: "I left a trace because I plan to find out his location first, and then send a message to you, so that you can find out the traces and lead the troops to arrest him at that time, rather than letting you come now." ”

Feng Wuji said: "I know that I am so safe, but then the risk is all my sister's." I had to come now, because I knew it wasn't enough to just ask for a chance. ”

Shun Yin was silent, but his face was relaxed, because what he said was the truth.

It was not enough to get a chance to report the border defense news to Chang'an, when her father was impeached, the whole thing was related to the Ministry of Mu Kun. Only by finding out this person can the old thing be unsealed and the situation fully opened.

She waited for six years, and when he was injured again, he even threatened to kill himself, so she waited until he was injured again, and even threatened to kill herself.

"You're here, does Mother know?" She asked suddenly.

Feng Wuji's eyes were sneering, but his tone was resolute: "Mother knows what, I am also a member of the Feng family." ”

Shunyin's tone had changed to helplessness: "Then you are here with the troops?"

Feng Wuji nodded: "It's in a hurry, there are not many people under my hands who can be mobilized, they are all docked in the rear, and they can send a message at any time. ”

Shun Yin stood silently for a moment, and made up her mind: "Okay, you just need to promise me, and if you don't risk to protect me, I will leave you here." ”

Feng Wujian opened his mouth to refute, but seeing her resolute expression, he had no choice but to respond: "I know, I must take care of myself this time." ”

Shun Yin didn't say anything more, turned around and walked out: "You wait here for my news." ”

Feng Wuxi hurriedly chased to the door: "Where are you going?" ”

"Keep looking." Shunyin has gone away.

The town is not lively, it is too remote, and it is close to the Gobi, and there is a gray and desolate atmosphere everywhere, and even the walls of the houses on both sides are covered with sand and dust blown by the wind.

Twilight had arrived, but there was apparently no curfew here, and there were still people coming and going, mostly dressed in bearded clothes, with the occasional Han Chinese mixed in.

There were no decent shops along the way, only a lot of small stalls and vendors were wantonly hawking, and the Hu and Chinese tones were mixed together, noisy and chaotic.

Shunyin wore a hood, covered his mouth and nose with one hand to prevent sand, and walked slowly in the town, scattered and followed by a few guards not far behind.

There seems to be no trace of Heshesi, but the one who came all the way pointed to this vicinity.

Her ears were so noisy that she could only scan back and forth with her eyes, observing the situation, noting down the topography and terrain near the town, until she reached the exit on the other side of the town, and looked out, and in the distance, a wild field was reckless, and it was connected to a mountain range like green ink.

Identifying her direction, she suddenly stopped.

If you keep going there, you will go all the way to the west, which is the direction of Liangzhou.

Shunyin's eyes moved, feeling that he was thinking far away, obviously far away, turned around, and walked towards another thin fork in the road, intending to go back and check again.

There was a sound of footsteps, and several people walked through the alleyway beside her, and one of them paused and stood there with his back on his back.

Shun Yin swept her eyes as she walked, only to see the back of the other party in a bearded robe - broad shoulders, tall and straight body, leather belt to narrow waist, calf wrapped in boots, like a loose long body, immovable, flashing in her eyes.

She stopped abruptly, was stunned for a moment, turned around and walked back to the alley, and when she looked inside, the figure was gone, like a dream bubble.

Chapter 64

Feng Wujian waited in the old guest house until dark, and finally saw his sister return again, and hurriedly greeted him out of the guest room.

Shunyin's face was half-blocked by the hood, and his eyes were hanging all the way, and his steps were slow, as if he was thinking about something.

Until she came to the front, she didn't look up, Feng Wujian felt strange, and approached and asked, "Sister didn't find it?" ”

Shun Yin raised his head suddenly, as if he came back to his senses, but his voice was a little light: "At least the general direction is there, prepare it, and set out after dark." ”

Feng Wujian breathed a sigh of relief, and was just about to prepare, when he stopped to look at her: "Then what's wrong with you?" ”

Shunyin walked past him to the guest room: "It's not much, I may need to rest for a while." ”

Probably ran around for days and had an illusion, otherwise how could he think it was his figure......

It was getting dark slowly, and Feng Wujian had already rushed to deliver the message in person, summoning all the men and horses who had stopped behind to come here.

The guards in the inn began to prepare and were ready to go.

Shunyin stayed in the guest room, methodically freshened up, ate, washed away some fatigue, sat on the chair and closed her eyes to recuperate.

didn't really rest, but her mind had already been decided, she felt that she must have seen it wrong, it couldn't be Mu Changzhou.

There was a knock on the door of the guest room: "Madam, you can go." "A guard is on the road.

Shunyin opened his eyes, instantly skimmed all his thoughts, got up and put away the dagger, sorted out the cloak, and went out immediately.

The night was thick and pulpy, and it was already the middle of the night.

Feng Wujian led the people to the deserted road outside the town, stopped and waited, and within a moment, he saw a string of figures leaving the town one after another.

It was the group of guards, who specially concealed the movement, leading the horses one by one, with light steps.

Shunyin followed last, led the horse out of the town, walked a long way before stepping on the stirrup, rode the horse over, and the horse's hooves were wrapped in a thick cloth, and there was a muffled sound in the cool night breeze.

She scanned the people and horses following Feng Wujian in the night, and roughly saw that there were about a hundred people, which was not much, but if she could go out with him, she must be a powerful person under his hands, not to mention that there may not be more people following He Shesi.

"Follow me, the smaller the movement, the better, and act when the opportunity arises." She said in a low voice, and pulled the reins forward.

Feng Wujian raised his hand backwards and followed her without saying a word.

The procession marched silently, and Shun Yin circled the town half a circle, heading west, exactly the same direction she had seen earlier at the other exit of the town.

She had been around the town twice, most likely in that direction. And the reason why they are near this town is because they need food supplies to escape, and they still can't leave the place where there are people after all.

Feng Wuji followed her to the right and whispered: "We have entered the boundary of Hexi, how can this direction be like going to ......" He didn't say the word Liangzhou.

Shun Yin didn't hear it, and said calmly: "It's not strange that he will run into Hexi, maybe he thinks that he is hiding in Hexi, but it is even more difficult to be found." ”

Feng Wujian wanted to see her face, but the night was so dark that he couldn't see anything, so he had to concentrate on hurrying.

In the second half of the night, the wind became lighter, and the team took advantage of the wind to speed all the way, and only slowed down a lot at this time.

It was the darkest hour before dawn, and Shun Yin whispered, "You listen to the movement around you." ”

Feng Wuji's ear power is stronger than her, and he has a number, so he just responded, and suddenly said: "It's really quiet here." ”

Shunyin also found out, and said that it was because of his weak ear, so he looked around and immediately said, "Get off the horse." ”

Everyone stopped and dismounted.

Shunyin got off the horse, walked forward, walked straight into the dark night, suddenly felt a burst of scorching fire with the wind, raised a finger to feel the direction of the wind, turned to the wind.

Feng Wuji had already followed, and pulled her sleeve twice on her right side, meaning to tell her to be careful.

Shun Yin nodded, I don't know if he saw it clearly, his eyes only glanced forward, walked a few hundred steps, and suddenly stopped, stopping him.

Feng Wujian suddenly stopped and looked forward.
