Under the surprised gaze of the two of them, Lin Yi was in pain for a long time before he wiped the sweat from his forehead and asked in a hoarse voice, "Miss Qin Rou, what happened later?"

Seeing that the matter was revealed, the black eagle simply stopped hiding it, and said in full force: "I followed the music for a few miles, and my heart was in a panic.

When I woke up a few days later, I was like this, and I went home to look for my grandfather, but I was frightened and beat me with a cane, and I cried for half the night, and I had no choice but to leave. Later, when I met the fifth uncle, he was also afraid of me, so he fled with no life, and the little woman was desperate, so she had no choice but to live in seclusion in the deep mountains and old forests. ”

Lin Yi sighed for a while, and said with pity: "Miss Qin has suffered...... But why are you stealing?"

"My grandparents live hard, my parents are not at home, and the military salary sent back is still deducted by the imperial court, so I can only make this decision. "But the little girl never dared to steal real money, so she only got some strips of cloth and ornaments for them to exchange for money." ”

Zhang Yingzhuo raised his eyebrows coldly, and said disdainfully: "Nonsense, the silver ticket ingots have numbered inscriptions printed by the government, you dare to give them to them!"

"I knew I was wrong. The Black Hawk bowed his head in horror and shrank his neck.

"Do you want to report to the official?" Zhang Yingzhuo turned his head to look at Lin Yi and asked him to make up his mind.

"Don't!" Zhao Qiman shouted in unison with Black Hawk.

Zhang Yingzhuo was stunned for a moment, and said strangely: "Miss Zhao, why are you speaking for her?"

"What's wrong with stealing something worthless?" Zhao Qiman clenched his fists and said angrily: "The government doesn't have a good thing, and it was said that as long as you pay the money on time every month, you will be able to keep the Qing Gang fine, but the court blamed it, and the first one to take us under the knife!"

"Hey, you are a bold and troubled citizen, you do a lot of evil on weekdays, and you quibble for thieves, believe it or not, I reported to the official and arrested you?"

"Alright, you two don't quarrel. Lin Yi hurriedly interjected and interrupted them.

"Hmph. Zhao Qiman turned his head angrily.

"For the sake of Senior Brother Lin's face, he is not as knowledgeable as a woman. Zhang Yingzhuo muttered and sat down.

Lin Yi laughed awkwardly a few times, made up his mind, untied the net, and said, "Miss Qin, I have offended a lot, please Haihan." ”

The black eagle regained his freedom, flapped his wings, flew around, landed beside him, stared at Lin Yi with bloody eyes, and asked, "You really let me go?"

"I hope Miss Qin won't steal anything in the future. Lin Yi affirmed.

"Hypocrisy. Black Hawk sneered, cleaning his feathers with his beak, "I don't steal, who will raise my relatives?"

Lin Yi took out his purse and put it in front of him, "Miss Qin, it's not easy to make money, I hope you can understand the pain of the person who was stolen, the kid only has this half or two pieces of silver left, you can take it." ”

Zhao Qiman sighed, also took out two taels of silver, pressed it on the purse, and said: "The second elder lives diligently and thriftily, and this silver is enough for them to live through their old age." ”

Seeing that the two of them glanced at each other, Zhang Yingzhuo hummed, touched it in his arms for a long time, and then took out a few copper plates, put them together, and said quite painfully: "Uh...... Count me in. ”

The Black Hawk looked at the crowd, flew over slowly, grabbed the money, and swept up. In mid-air, he suddenly shouted: "Thank you to a few great good people, the little girl is grateful!"

Lin Yi watched it go away, took out the bag, confirmed that the cloth was still inside, and finally put his mind at ease. Then, I couldn't help but open it to see what was written on it, and remembered my mother's will, tried to suppress my thoughts, stuffed it back into my bag, and said, "Senior Brother Zhang, Miss Zhao, let's go back." ”

The three of them returned to Qinjia Village, packed their luggage, and tied them to their horses. The village chief anxiously asked about the whereabouts of the black eagle, and Lin Yi knew that he saw the clue, so he said that he had not caught it, and he was really relieved.

Lin Yi knew it, kept the secret in his belly, and waited for a heavy rain to pass, and then said goodbye and left. The three of them rode out of the village and crossed the mountain road, and there was an eagle's cry in the sky.

Everyone looked up, and the black eagle swooped down, landed on Lin Yi's shoulder, and asked urgently, "Childe, how did your companion become human?"

Seeing their gaze, Zhang Yingzhuo raised his eyebrows and said proudly: "This is the talent of our clan, and when you come out of your mother's womb, you can change into a human form." ”

Black Eagle hung his head in frustration, Zhang Yingzhuo pursed his lips and said, "If you practice Neidan, you can also practice the art of change." ”

"Where do you study?"

"Heavenly Book Mansion!" Zhang Yingzhuo laughed, "It's a pity that you can't go." ”

"I'm on my way to the Heavenly Book Mansion. Lin Yi said softly, "If Miss Qin doesn't dislike it, you can go with me." ”

The black eagle's bloody eyes shone brightly, and he said happily: "Thank you Childe, I am willing to walk with you, Childe is very gracious, and the little girl will remember it in my heart." He glanced at Zhang Yingzhuo and said angrily: "Stingy ghost." ”

"Well said. Lin Yi took the reins and controlled the horse's speed. At the beginning of the heavy rain, the cool breeze is cool, the waterlogged treetops are dripping and falling, and the green leaves are flying without avoiding people.

After more than ten years, I returned to the Lingguan Mansion, and it was the height of summer, and the gardenia was fragrant. Everyone entered the mansion and met Luoshan, he asked Black Eagle about his life, and Lin Yi explained in detail.

"The falcon is agile and has excellent eyesight, and with it, there is also a guarantee on the road. Luo Shan Kenshou spread out a map on the table, waited for everyone to look at it, stroked his finger to a corner, and explained: "The entrance examination of Tianshu Mansion is held on June 15 every year in the Song Kingdom Xingyuezhai. From Yongzhou Mansion to the east, Izumo country, through Yanshu and Shu, and then into the Song Kingdom in the East, this trip is as long as 10,000 miles, not a few months to reach, if there is no delay on the road, next year before the entrance examination may be able to catch up. ”

Lin Yi's expression was solemn, and Luo Shan added: "In the case that you can change horses from the post station." ”

"But the post station is only open to officials. Lin Yi said with a frown.

"On foot, it's at least five years. Luo Shan smiled and took out an iron token from his arms, "This is a post talisman for the teacher to use the name of the spirit official and review it, you and the girl can change horses at the post station with this order...... And the road citations, don't forget. ”

Lin Yi was grateful and took the token. Luo Shan thought for a while, and then said: "Before going to the Song Kingdom, you and the girl still have to learn martial arts." ”

"What martial arts?"

Luoshan Zhengse said: "Catch the dart and hit the dart." ”

"Hidden weapon?" Lin Yi was stunned.

"Walking outside, traveling through the rivers and lakes, it is inevitable to be plotted, the art of receiving darts and darts, all sects have always had to teach, learn this art, and the disciples can become teachers. ”

But the disciples had never heard of it. ”

"The way of the secret weapon always makes the world shameful, so it will not be mentioned in the play. But in a life-and-death struggle, whoever reasoned with you could sneak attack and take your life, and never left behind. ”

"Please teach me, Master. ”

"As a teacher, I am not good at this, I can only do some skin. Luo Shan paused and said, "I have a book of dart arts, you can take it and practice with the girl on the road." ”

Lin Yi thanked him, took a yellowed booklet, wrote the four characters of dart art essays, opened it, and read it hastily. The first half of the chapter is an introduction to ordinary hidden weapons, and the second half of the chapter explains the flying knives and flying nails, and the two hidden weapons are connected.

Luo Shan nagged for a while, and after explaining the details, he let him go down to rest. Lin Yi was full of bosom, called Luo Caiwei, and studied with her. The next day, Luoshan sent silver to the two and asked them to order two pairs of flying knives and nails in Yongzhou City.

The two found the store to order, waited for three days, and then picked up the goods in the store. The flying knife is four inches long, about an inch wide, and has two blades, a total of six, and Luo Caiwei can't put it down. Lin Yi gave it to her, and took the flying nail himself, this thing is three inches long, the tip is sharp, the tail end is flattened, so that it can be handled, the weight is up to one catty, a total of nine.

While there was still some leisure, Luo Caiwei found a cobbler and made two sets of knife sets, which were different from the two waists and could hold three flying knives on one side; Lin Yi found a skilled craftsman and made a casing box, and every time he pressed it, three flying nails could pop out from the hole in front of him.

According to Luoshan's words, the two of them each bought a stone to sharpen their blades, and then returned to the mansion to pack up their things. Lin Yi came out of Luoshan's room, separated from Luo Caiwei, and then went to Zhang Yingzhuo's residence, and after a meal with him, he said goodbye with a smile.

When I found Zhao Qiman in front of the door again, I was worried, took a few breaths, and knocked on the door.

"Who?" Zhao Qiman's voice came from inside, as if he was a little flustered.

"It's me, Lin Yi!"

After waiting for a while, there were hurried footsteps, and the door opened, and Zhao Qiman probed: "Stinky boy, why are you here?"

She coughed twice, covered her mouth with a handkerchief, and there was still a little red on it, seeing Lin Yi's suspicious eyes, she hurriedly put it away, and said with a smile: "It's okay, it's okay, come in and sit down." ”

"Miss Zhao...... What's wrong with you?" Lin Yi asked with a frown, and stepped into the house.

"Occasional cold, throat inflammation, not a big problem. Zhao Qiman said softly.

"Why did you lie to me?" Lin Yi saw through her cover-up and said in a daze.

"I said it was okay!" Zhao Qiman suddenly changed color, then restrained his angry face and pleaded softly: "Xiaolinzi, everyone has secrets, don't ask, okay?"

Lin Yi was startled and nodded stupidly, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to annoy Miss Zhao, and the kid won't mention it in the future." ”

The two sat down on the group couch, Zhao Qiman served tea, Lin Yi took a sip, and said slowly: "The kid came to say goodbye, and he left at noon today." ”

"Are you leaving?" Zhao Qiman's eyebrows drooped, and his expression was lonely.

"Hmm. Lin Yi said in a deep voice.

Zhao Qiman's eyes flowed, staring at him secretly, as if he wanted to imprint his appearance into his heart, and the corners of his mouth were like a smile, a trace of warmth.

"What's wrong?" Lin Yi said inexplicably, fidgeting at her.

Zhao Qiman shook his head and asked timidly, "Can you take me with you?"

"It's too far away, and it's dangerous...... Lin Yi pondered for a moment, put down the teacup, and said honestly: "The assessment of the Heavenly Book Mansion is strict, and the cultivation is at least lucky Zhou Tian, the kid may not be able to pass the assessment, why should Miss Zhao run around in vain?"

Zhao Qiman sighed gloomily and stopped talking.

Lin Yi was silent and in a daze, and suddenly found that she had fallen asleep, leaning over, her head resting on her lap, but her expression was sad.

Lin Yi looked down for a while, estimating that the hour had come, picked up her head, gently placed it on the group couch, and got up to leave.

When I returned to my room, I checked the cage: there was a change of clothes on the top, a collection of darts and a guide to the road, all neatly folded, in the center of a box, next to the post station talisman, at the bottom there were scattered a piece of stone, several bags of dry food, and a bamboo tube hung outside, which was used to hold water and draw water.

Confirm that it is correct, put down the roof tarpaulin, shelter from the wind and rain, and put the cage on your back. Hanguang was firmly tied to the back waist, covered with canvas outside, and pinned a concealment box on his belt, and walked out of the door, accompanied by Luo Caiwei, and walked to the post station.

Zhao Qiman woke up from a dream, looked at the empty room, and rushed out of the room in despair.

She ran out of the gate alone, looking at the empty bluestone road under the scorching sun, the cicadas were boiling, but the person had nowhere to be found.
