At noon, the valley was banned.

After a whole day and a night, the place finally returned to its original empty valley again, and everything was silent. Because of the absence of the ubiquitous cold wind in the north, even the light that has never had a sense of existence is much more lively, pouring down and warming people's hearts.

At this moment, there was a boom......

It was like a muffled thunder rolling in the clouds, reverberating imperceptibly. In today's cloudless climate, this is not possible. Looking at the environment here, it looks like a boulder has rolled down the hillside......

Somewhere in the forbidden valley, on an unknown mountain, a boulder that had been deliberately rested into an oval shape was rolling down the slope of the hillside, crushing a lot of vegetation along the way.

Following the traces, the gaze turned to the xiangshang side. About halfway up the mountain, a hidden cave was exposed.

Then, a figure slowly walked out of the cave. The posture is stiff, the gait is staggering, and it seems to be a little inconvenient. The clothes were also ragged, and the silk strips of cloth could not hide the wheat-colored and healthy skin at all. The figure is also tall, concave and convex, and the two slender jade legs are almost all exposed. Walking around, although there is a subconscious blocking, you can still see a little bit of spring, which is very tempting......

Needless to say, this person is naturally Shavian!

......

Don still underestimated Charvian's perseverance, and it didn't take her a day to get out. Just after waking up, the hand pushes and carries it on the shoulder. Gritted his teeth. Just an hour. I forcibly pushed the boulder at the entrance of the cave with pure liliang,

Rubbing the palm of her hand that was blurred by excessive force, Xia Wei'an's expression was blank, and she didn't seem to feel the slightest pain. In his eyes, he lost his usual perseverance and perseverance, and slowly scanned the surrounding mountains, sluggish......

The four fields are silent, and the grass and trees are silent. It seems that the mood of the only guest is also felt. At this time, the forbidden valley seemed even more dead......

She didn't stay here for long, and although from her look, Xia Weien showed no signs of recovery, but her physical instinct had already driven her to leave this sad place as soon as possible.

Of course, as the evil Donn had predicted before, Shavian would run freely in the mountains......

Soon after entering a dense forest, Xia Weien's delicate body was wrapped in layers of animal skins. It was left by the dead barbarians before, and the Northern Wilderness tribe did not have any concept of being in the ground, or even if there were, it was not something that ordinary barbarians could enjoy or care about.

The Forbidden Valley is indeed empty. After getting out of the valley all the way, Xia Wei'an's expression finally recovered a little. From lifelessness to calm, well, at least on the surface.

Taking a deep breath, Xia Wei'an habitually pursed her lips, muttered for a few seconds, and then reached out and made a few mysterious gestures on her chest, and gathered over like a forest of white mangs.

Out of the forbidden valley, there is naturally a fighting spirit. Although the amount of fighting energy that can be accumulated in such a short period of time is very small, it is more than enough to release a sense tracking magic.

The light dissipated, Xia Wei'an Huo Ran turned her head to look in the northeast direction, her calm expression disappeared in an instant, and was replaced by a mixture of unwillingness, hatred, resentment, and many other negative emotions. For a while, there was a rare murderous intent on the holy face......

"......Whew" was half-sounded, and she exhaled a long breath of turbidity, Xia Wei'an's expression gradually calmed down, and then she bit her lip, her brows tightened, as if she was struggling with something. But after all, he was a decisive man, and soon stomped his feet and walked south.

There, that is, in the direction of Bran.

As Tang En had speculated before, Xia Wei had no choice but to give up this chase after sensing the tracking magic and learning that he had not died in the Forbidden Valley, and that he had already been far away for a long time.

This is not necessary, the previous ten days of pursuit, the two sides have fought many times in the case of very close distance, but Zuihou Xia Vian still failed to succeed. That's not to mention that it's now dozens of kilometers apart. You must know that this represents not only the distance, but also the fully recovered Donn, the difference in speed between the two sides, and so on...... It can be said that just this one, Xia Weien has lost the best chance to kill Donne!

Of course, Xia Wei can also forcibly chase and kill regardless of it, which she did before. But now the situation is different, her identity and whereabouts have been completely exposed, plus she is not good at hiding disguises at all. If you continue to chase, it is very likely that before you can catch up with Tang En, you will be surrounded by barbarians again...... Completely loss-making trading!

In this way, the only thing Xia Weien can do now is naturally to return to Bran first.

......

But after taking a few steps, Xia Wei'an's delicate body shook suddenly, feeling the pain like tearing below, and subconsciously paused and hunched over.

"Hmm......" With a low roar of extreme annoyance, Xia Wei'an's face straightened up, and her resolute expression recovered a lot. Then, as if he was fighting against something intangible, he strode out again and walked straight forward......

It can be seen that Xia Wei'an is very cautious now, and she is no longer as careless as before, and the roads she chooses are basically remote paths, or directly into the mountains and forests.

Soon, while flavouring a hill, Charvian paused again, this time not because of Weishenme's annoyance, but because of a small lake in the hills ahead. The ice surface is reflected by the sunlight, which is quite conspicuous.

Xia Wei'an looked at it in a daze for a while, as if she was thinking about something, then pursed her lips, and without hesitation, walked over directly. Today's Northern Wilderness is close to the coldest season, and this is not a forbidden valley with special terrain, so even though it is noon and the sun is shining, this small lake is still covered with a thick layer of ice, and the cold seeps people.

After approaching, Xia Weien first walked around the small lake. The lake is located among the hills and is quite hidden. In the past, it was supposed to be just a depression, and after accumulating enough rain and snow, this water land was finally formed. Except for a few traces of animals, there are no people around.

Seeing this, Xia Weien walked behind a boulder by the lake. 窸窸窣窣窣...... Moment. A slender jade leg stepped out first. Immediately, the whole body walked out without an inch.

The peaks are towering, smooth and jade. It doesn't seem to be stained with red dust, but it is two touches of plum blossom dots. The grass is green, not dense or sparse. It is like fertile land, but it hides the arc of the valley......

No cover-up, no restraints. In a calm state, Xia Wei'an's face was full of holiness, and she stepped on the ice generously, her well-proportioned jade feet and crystal amber ice surface. Walk towards the center of the lake without hurrying.

This situation and this scene are like a holy snow lotus blooming out of thin air in the snow, secretly spitting fragrance towards the heaven and earth. You can only watch from a distance, and you can't bear to blaspheme or blasphemy.

At this moment, the valley was silent, and it seemed that he didn't even want to come and disturb the raging cold wind, but just carefully blew his waist-length hair, gently fluttering, and adding a bit of style.

Before she knew it, Charvian was walking to the center of the lake. Look around. The jade foot stomped lightly, and the surrounding divine dou mang erupted richly. The next moment.

Laugh at...... The thick layer of ice beneath Xia Wei'an's body suddenly appeared with many horizontal branches, and then in just a few breaths, it quickly expanded and spread like a spider web...... Finally, bam!

The ice shattered and splashed. The beautiful body disappeared from the ice in an instant and fell straight into the lake.

As I said before, the climate of the Northern Wilderness at this time is extremely cold, not to mention the lake that has formed a thick layer of ice, just look at the slightest chill that permeates the moment.

But a minute, a minute...... Soon, five minutes passed! Shavien was still hidden in the icy waters of the lake, and she never showed up.

If you can see through the ice and the lake, you can see Xia Wei'an holding her knees with her hands and her long hair buried in her head, like a child who has been robbed of candy, sitting quietly at the bottom of the lake, letting the boundless cold lake water surround and wash her delicate body......

If you can wash away the filth on your body, you can wash away all the breath and traces left by that disgusting guy. That's a hundred times colder, so what's the matter!!

......

This is a resolute approach, and it also implies a little helplessness and self-deception!

Xia Wei'an has never been a cowardly person, and she has fought for as many years as she has been out of the army...... Countless times to face and deal with it, and countless times to save the day and escape from death. Shavien felt that she was strong enough, and her heart was equally stoic and fearless. But......

The delicate body gradually trembled, and the green fingers slowly and deeply sank into the ice muscles. My mind unconsciously passed over the previous humiliating images...... I was still panicked, frightened, and overwhelmed......

"I humiliated you and kissed you...... Where is your God?"

"The Flower of Knights, the Flower of Knights...... Ordinary goods, not as good as nightingales ......"

"It's so cheap that it ...... unappetizing"

......

The words of humiliation continued to swirl in his mind like magic sounds, and every sentence went straight to his heart. Around, it seems to sense Xia Wei'an's turbulent mood, bursts of ripples are agitated and spreading, and undercurrents are surging......

Suddenly, a group of looks exploded at the bottom of the lake. Vaguely, I saw Xia Wei'an, who had long hair fluttering, with her hands wide open, looking up to the sky and shouting, "Ah......"

Rumble...... Rumble...... Rumble......

In an instant, all the ice on the surface of the lake broke down and crushed into slag. The small lake that had been stagnant before seemed to rush into the sea, and the waves raised their heads high, roaring and lapping on both banks, causing countless splashes to burst out......

......

......

In Xia Wei'an's opinion, as long as Tang En came out of the forbidden valley, with his perverted speed, it would be impossible for the more than 10,000 barbarians before to catch up. So Donn's current position should be a few dozen kilometers northeast, and he is running at high speed!, but is that exactly the case......

To the northeast, about fifty miles. On the winding mountain road, small black dots like ants are constantly moving forward.

This is the barbarian who surrounded and sealed the Absolute Valley before, but now there are no more than 10,000 people. It's not because of casualties, of course, Don and Xia Weien did kill a lot. However, the main reason is that the battle is over, and most of the tribes have turned around. As for the thousands of people who are still following them at the moment, it's just because they're on the way.

At this point, in the center of the line.

"Brother Andre, what kind of flower is that?"

"En......"

"It's so pretty! Can you go pick it for me? I'll show you." ”

"En......"

"Brother Andrey, Brother Andrei......"

"Huh? What's wrong, Sinie?"

“...... You ignore me!"

"Uh......" Andre came back to his senses and looked at Xini, who had a puffed mouth and a face full of 'I'm very unhappy', and was stunned for a moment. Then he scratched his head in embarrassment. Laughing. "How could it be...... Sorry, I was a little distracted just now, so ...... Well, wait a minute. ”

"Oh. Xini nodded noncommittally, it seemed that the resentment had not disappeared, but in fact, seeing the sincerity of her sweetheart, the dissatisfaction in her heart had long been calmed down. Then I watched Andre quickly dismount and go to pick the flowers on the side of the road that he just said were beautiful. The corners of the mouth are unconsciously raised, reserved and happy.

"Now, here you go...... Belch. Andre, who turned around, was about to hand over the flowers, but when he saw that Sini was leaning over, he reacted immediately after being stunned for a moment and inserted the flowers behind Sinnie's ears.

"Xiexie, hee-hee. Sitting up straight, Sini turned her head and grabbed a strand of her long hair, squinting and smiling, "Brother Andre." Is it pretty?"

"Of course it's pretty. ”

"Is that a beautiful flower, or am I pretty?"

"Uh...... The flowers are beautiful. You're prettier though!"

It has to be said that when a man is confronted with a woman's petty nature, some words are almost instinctive. Even if you don't see much sincerity, you can still make the other party smile.

Sini was undoubtedly in this state now, and the uncontrollable joy spread from the corners of her mouth to her entire face, and anyone could tell that she was very happy at the moment. Not only did he no longer mind Andrei's previous snub attitude, but asked intimately: "By the way, Brother Andrei, what were you thinking about just now?"

"Oh, nothing, just a little confused. Shaking his head slightly, Andrei looked ahead and frowned and said, "We don't have a clue what we want to do, but the direction now is to go back, is this weishenme?"

"Huh?" said Cini, who opened her mouth, obviously not knowing the answer, but then blinked and said, "This...... We can go directly to the head of the regiment, the route is set by her. ”

"I want to ask ......" Scratching his head, Andrei helplessly spread his finger to the side, where was the young regiment commander who was also riding forward, but at this time her eyes were dazed, and her hands were constantly rubbing something, obviously not belonging.

"Now, I see. It took a long time, but the head of the regiment never even raised his head, and kept looking at the jade pendant...... How does that make me ask?"

"Jade pendant ......" Xini's expression moved when she heard this, the corners of her mouth squirmed, and she seemed to hesitate a little when she looked at Andre.

Andre was sensitive, and asked in surprise, "Sieni, do you know anything?"

"I don't know anything, it's just ......" muttered in a low voice, Sinie couldn't bear to hide her sweetheart, so she deliberately leaned over and whispered, "I tell you, don't talk to others...... Well, several times I have seen the same wolf-shaped jade pendant in the Empress's place, and it seems to be the other half. ”

"Uh, what, what!" Andre was shocked when he heard this, but looking at Xini's continuous silent gestures, he reacted instantly, lowered his voice, and his face was full of incredulity, "But, but this jade pendant was found from the Nabulan madman!"

"I know......" turned his head and looked at the young regiment leader carefully, who was not shocked, and still looked at the jade pendant in his hand attentively. Seeing this, Xini breathed a sigh of relief and continued, "The head of the regiment should have also seen this jade pendant from the empress, so it is like this now. ”

"But this ...... What the hell is weishenme?"

Xini bit her lip and seemed to hesitate, but looking at the heroic Andre, she whispered with an open look: "Forget it, I'll tell you something more." Well, this is just a rumor, and I hear it occasionally, I don't know if it's true or not...... In short, it must not be passed on, otherwise we may all die. ”

This Xini's identity is a bit special, and she seems to be able to get in touch with a lot of secrets. When Andre heard this, he naturally nodded again and again, and his expression was slightly nervous.

"I really don't know whether to say it or not, alas...... You know, the Empress is naturally intelligent, and is said to have been proficient in the Bran language since she was a child, plus her size and appearance are almost indistinguishable from the Brans. So more than ten years ago, I once sneaked out of the imperial city, traveled thousands of miles, and went to Bran once. ”

Empress, have you been to Bran? How is this possible? Hearing such shocking news at the beginning made Andre's eyes widen.

After that, the Empress seemed to have been in Bran for a long time, until the Empress's father, the former Wolf Emperor, became critically ill, and the Empress rushed back. Immediately, it was rumored that during the time that the empress was in Bran, she seemed to have fallen in love with a Bran man, and gave half of her personal jade pendant out as a token of love. And, uh...... I heard that the Empress was pregnant when she returned. ”

"Ah...... cough cough ......" forcibly stifled the screams that had lost his voice, and Andre suddenly flushed and coughed.

He now knew that Weishenme Sini had been emphasizing that it should not be passed on, this matter was not only about the reputation of the Empress, but also had a wide range of implications, not to mention anything else, if the pregnancy was true, then His Royal Highness Tiu was the seed of the Brans? This TM is too terrifying...... But in any case, if it really comes out of their mouths, and it makes a big fuss, then they will not survive.

"Brother Andre, how are you?" Seeing this, Sini was anxious and hurriedly patted Andre on the back.

waved his hand, "I'm fine, ahem...... Well, you go on. ”

"No, that's all. The head of the regiment is so astute, he must have heard this rumor, so he is only looking at the jade pendant in a daze now. Sini shook her head, looking at the young leader with some concern.

"Possibly...... Hey, that's not right. Andre raised his eyebrows suddenly, and subconsciously turned his head to look somewhere behind, "That Bran madman is in his twenties at most, how can he have anything to do with the empress?"

Xini shook her head and said, "I don't know, maybe this rumor is false, or maybe the empress's sweetheart accidentally lost the jade pendant, and it ended up in his hands......"

"Yes...... Enh?" nodded in agreement, and suddenly, Andre's brows suddenly furrowed, and he looked at a figure in front of him who was rushing towards this side.

This person, Andre, knew that it was the person who was ordered by the previous regiment commander, and then he personally arranged to go to the northeast to find out if there was any news of Ziyi...... Is it news so soon?

This barbarian is also a master of the caravan, and his speed is naturally not slow. Soon, he came to the front with a body full of wind and dust.

Wheezing and wheezing, "Whew...... My lord, I just got the news, and I ...... More than ten days ago, Zi Yi broke into the hinterland of the tribe with 20,000 Bran soldiers, and now he should have killed the Imperial City of the Northern Wilderness, and he ......"

"Damn!" "What ......"

Andre and Sinee's faces changed dramatically when they heard this, and they exclaimed in unison.

"En?" The young regiment leader on the side was alarmed, and looked up at this side, his face full of confusion......

............ (To be continued......)
