"Brother Jia...... Where are we going?"

On the official road, Yao Xing'er dragged her tired legs and walked two steps tightly, rushed behind the little Taoist Jia Yuanzhu, and asked with a pant.

The title has changed from the previous Mr. to today's Brother Jia.

After leaving Feng'an City, the two of them stopped and stopped, and before they knew it, they had been heading north for dozens of days.

After a spring rain, this official road that has been in disrepair for a long time is muddy and the road becomes more and more difficult.

Yao Xing'er is not a pampered person, but she has never traveled far away, and after such a long journey, her red round face is already covered with mud, and her hair is unkempt, like a homeless, quite embarrassed.

Jia Yuanshu stopped and looked at Yao Xing'er, who was struggling behind him, and felt a little unbearable.

Calculating the distance, Jia Yuanshu said: "Rest for a while, there should be a small town ahead, let's find a place to settle there." ”

Yao Xing'er breathed a sigh of relief and leaned towards the side of the road, Jia Yuanshu took off the package, planning to take some dry food out to satisfy his hunger.

Suddenly, a rumbling sound of horses' hooves was heard in front of them, and without waiting for the two to react, four or five people galloped past.

Yao Xing'er exclaimed, and before she had time to dodge, she was splashed with mud by the horse's hooves.

Innocently suffered an unwarranted disaster, Yao Xing'er couldn't help but feel a little annoyed, and wanted to wipe the mud spots on her body, the more she wiped it, the dirtier it became.

There was another neighing of horses, and the few people who were galloping by suddenly stopped in front, and then turned to walk towards the two.

The first is a young man, dressed in a gray power suit and a blue robe.

Although he is not handsome, he has good facial features, a tall figure, and a sense of pride and vigor.

Behind him, there were also four followers, all shrewd and capable.

The young man took out a brocade handkerchief from his arms, handed it to Yao Xing'er, and said with an apologetic smile: "I was in a hurry to rush and collided with the two, please forgive me." ”

The original intention was to lend the Jinpa to Yao Xing'er to wipe the mud stains, but the Jinpa was extremely exquisite, with a light fragrance, how could Yao Xing'er be willing to use it to wipe the mud.

The young man greeted the entourage behind him, took another ingot of silver and gave it to Yao Xing'er, and then said: "The silver is a loss for this dress, and the girl should buy another one." ”

Seeing the other party's apology, Yao Xing'er's resentment in her heart had already dissipated, and she hurriedly waved her hand and said, "No, no need, this clothes are already full of mud, just wash them in the future." ”

Since Yao Xing'er was unwilling to accept her own silver, the young man was not reluctant, and after taking back the silver, he was about to leave with a few people.

Jia Yuanshu stood behind a few people and suddenly said, "This prince is in such a hurry, he should be heading towards Feng'an City, right?"

The young man suddenly stopped, turned his head, and looked at Jia Yuanchu in surprise.

Then he said with an easy-going smile on his face: "This official road extends in all directions, and it will be able to go straight to the capital after ten miles to the west, and if you continue to walk, you can also go to several cities in the southwest, how does Mr. know that we are going to Feng'an City?"

As the young man spoke, several attendants behind him were also vigilant, and their eyes fell on Jia Yuanzhuo with their hands on the hilt of the knife.

Jia Yuanshu didn't care about everyone's fierce eyes, walked to the horse that the young man was riding, casually checked the bag of dry food hanging on the horse's back and said: "It is enough to rush to the capital for two days, and the dry food you carry will be rich in five days, so it shouldn't be to go to the capital." ”

The young man smiled and did not speak, but there was more approval in his eyes.

Jia Yuanshu looked at the package carried by an entourage and continued: "It's early spring now, and the south is much warmer than the north, so you have only one place to go with these big guns. Although Feng'an City is located in the south, it is surrounded by mountains and the climate is much colder, so these coats are prepared to keep out the cold. ”

The young boy jumped straight off the horse, his feet in the mud and he didn't care.

He bowed slightly and said, "Mr. has a unique eyesight, and he dares to ask Mr. by his name." ”

Jia Yuanshu smiled and said: "Poor Dao Jia Yuanchai is just an ordinary wandering path, and he doesn't dare to take the name of Mr. If you look at it again, you are riding not the healthy horses that are common in the north, but the mules and horses that are more adept at walking mountain roads, and it is not difficult to see the purpose of your actions just by looking closely. But having said so much, it's actually all false, and what really sees the clue is the face of the son. ”

The young man was slightly stunned, and then said with a hearty smile: "Face, don't hide from Mr. Tell me, I am going to Feng'an City on this trip, I don't know what advice Mr. has?"

Jia Yuanshu looked at the entourage behind him and said, "Childe, can you take a step to speak?"

The young man walked strode to the side in the mud.

The two came to a secluded place on the side, and before Jia Yuan could speak, the young man said bluntly: "My family has ancestors buried in Feng'an City, and this time I went to sweep the tomb and worship before the Qingming Festival." ”

Jia Yuanshu asked, "If the guess is correct, the son should be surnamed Yin, right?"

The young man was surprised and said, "In Xia Yin Zhelu, could it be that Mr. has some relationship with my Yin family?"

Jia Yuanshu waved his hand and said: "It turned out to be the little marquis, although I don't know the Yin family, but Qi Tianbao has heard of it." Twenty years ago, Marquis Yin had a bloody battle in Fengming City, and both sides suffered countless casualties. It is said that from now on, Marquis Yin will rush to Feng'an City every year in Qingming to worship the souls of the dead, but he didn't expect to be replaced by the little Marquis this year. ”

Although Jia Yuanshu was dressed in tatters, Yin Zhelu naturally didn't dare to look down on him when he saw him tell the secrets of his family like a few family treasures.

He sighed softly and said: "My father was injured a lot because of that war, although he has tried his best to breathe over the years, but the disease is difficult to get rid of, and now he is sick and it is not easy to travel long distances, and I will do it for me this trip to Feng'an." ”

Jia Yuanshu nodded, was silent for a while, and then said: "Don't hide it from the little marquis, I'm afraid this trip to Feng'an will be a little dangerous." ”

Yin Zhelu frowned slightly and said, "What does Mr. mean...... shouldn't I go?"

Jia Yuan shook his head.

"Even if the poor road is blocked, the little Hou Ye is afraid that he will not change his mind, I see that the little Hou Ye has a dark red blood in his eyebrows, if it is born upward, it will soar into the sky, if it goes down, it will be a catastrophe. Since you and I are destined, Poor Dao advises the little marquis to be cautious in this trip, if the little marquis can meet a nobleman, he will be able to turn the danger into a disaster. ”

Yin Zhelu is resolute by nature, so naturally he will not change his mind at will, and after listening to what Jia Yuan said in the clouds, he only knew a little about it.

He gave a deep salute, and then took out a gold medal and said: "If Mr. does not give up, please come to Qi Tianbao as a guest, with this token, Qi Tianbao will naturally introduce Mr. as a guest, and when I Feng An returns, I will personally entertain Mr." ”

After that, he came to the middle of the road, turned over his horse, and headed towards Feng'an City with four followers.
