Chapter 499: Common Enemy
When Ye Fei and Gu Lianshuang came to Shachi Town, they were around the time of the child.
In the desert, the wind never goes away, so there is never a moment in the dead of night.
On the contrary, in the desert, water is extremely rare and valuable, so where there is usually a river, a large number of people gather, and the town of Shachi was formed because of this.
After getting off the horse, Ye Fei walked on the deserted street with his left hand holding the horse rope and his right hand leading Gu Lianshuang.
Along the way, he had already roughly explained the current situation to Gu Lianshuang.
Gu Lianshuang was still immersed in the joy of reuniting with Ye Fei, and everything was decided by Ye Fei.
On weekdays, there are many vendors who come and go to Shachi Town, so there are several inns in the town.
In the end, Ye Fei and Gu Lianshuang chose the most remote inn in the town to live.
At this time, Shachi Town had become a place of right and wrong, and he didn't know how many pairs of eyes had been secretly staring at him and Gu Lianshuang since he entered the town.
Inside the room.
Ye Fei pushed open the door and came in with a basin of cold water.
After smiling at Gu Lianshuang, he said, "I'll ask the shopkeeper to boil water, and there will be hot water to soak your feet later." ”
Gu Lianshuang nodded, then wrung out the towel in the basin and wiped the sand off her face for Ye Fei.
Then, Ye Fei snatched the towel from her hand and helped her clean her cheeks.
"Feng, I haven't seen you for three years, do I look old again?" Gu Lianshuang asked with a frown. The age gap with Ye Fei has always been a thorn in her heart that cannot be pulled out.
"Go out and ask the innkeeper at once, he must have thought you were twenty-five years old. Ye Fei said affirmatively.
"But I'm still old after all!" Gu Lianshuang looked sad.
"Mercy, it really doesn't matter!" Ye Fei smiled and reassured.
Gu Lianshuang smiled, but she was still sad in her heart.
After a while, Ye Fei left with a basin of cold water, and came back with a bucket of hot water.
The two took off their boots, sat on the edge of the bed, and put their feet in the barrel. As they spoke, they stepped on each other's feet and made a fuss, spilling a lot of water from the barrels, wetting their boots.
After playing around for a while, Gu Lianshuang's face suddenly darkened, and she said sadly: "Feng, I'm so afraid that when I wake up tomorrow, everything that happened today is a dream!"
Ye Fei leaned over and slowly pressed Gu Lianshuang under him, "Lianshuang, don't worry, when you wake up tomorrow, you will be in my arms." ”
"Hmm!" Gu Lianshuang closed her eyes and wrapped her arms around Ye Fei's neck at the same time.
The next thing will be handed over to Ye Fei.
At this moment, the downstream of the sand pool, when he learned that Ye Fei had taken a woman to live in the inn in Sand Pool Town, Xiao Yihe was quite surprised, thinking to himself that Ye Fei really fell in love with the patron of Tianxuan Cave?
If this was the case, he felt angry in his heart and felt worthless for Shen Xiaoqing.
Half an hour ago, he received news from the spies in front of him - the Xishu Sending Relatives Mission would arrive in Shachi Town tomorrow night at the earliest;
On the other hand, there is no trace of the Fire Cult for the time being.
He guessed that if the Fenghuo Sect knew that Lonely Night City would help escort the Western Shu delegation to Northern Liao, it might do so before the Western Shu mission arrived in Shachi Town.
If it's fast, we'll do it later, and it will be before noon tomorrow at the latest, otherwise once the Xishu mission and the people of Lonely Night City meet, it will be a little difficult for the Fenghuo Sect to do it again.
At that time, he will have two choices on his side: one is to immediately lead his soldiers and horses to ambush on the way of the Xishu mission tomorrow, and join the melee when the Fenghuojiao attacks the Xishu mission;
The second is to wait until the people of Lonely Night City arrive, and when they are defeated by the Fenghuo Sect, he will take action again, and take advantage of the fisherman.
If it hadn't been discussed with Ye Fei in advance, he promised that Ye Fei would release Nangong Yulin, otherwise Xiao Yihe would have made the first choice.
After all, the purpose of his coming this time was mainly to prevent the marriage between Xishu and Northern Liao, as long as he killed Nangong Yulin.
Of course, what Ye Fei said is very reasonable: if Northern Liao and Western Shu are determined to attack Yun Guo before and after, whether they marry or not is not the key. The key is how to break the idea of Xishu attacking Yunguo.
And Ye Fei's suggestion is that although the Yin-Yang faction is now suppressed in Xishu, and Zhao Youchuan has also become a prisoner, after all, this Zhao Youchuan and the Yin-Yang faction still exist in Xishu, and they have won the support of the people, if they can help Zhao Youchuan and the Yin-Yang faction restore their former status and power, then this key problem will be solved.
In this way, it can also get rid of the hidden forces of Xishu.
......
It's not dawn yet.
Xiao Yihe was still asleep, when suddenly, a member of the Secret Pavilion came to report to him: "My lord, there is a person who claims to be the right envoy of the Light of the Fire Sect who asks to see him. ”
Hearing this, Xiao Yihe's eyes widened suddenly, and he immediately sat up and asked the members of the Secret Pavilion to bring people over.
Soon, the Right Envoy of Light followed the member into Xiao Yihe's tent.
After hugging their fists, the right envoy of the light said: "In the lower is to serve Ma Yudong, the right envoy of the light of the Fire Sect, and he has admired the name of the Lord for a long time. ”
"Oh?" Xiao Yihe sneered, "Your Excellency knows you?"
"Of course, my lord, since I have come to see you in Xiadu, you and I will have something to say. I know that the adults came here this time just to kill the princess of Xishu and prevent the marriage between Xishu and Northern Liao?" Ma Yudong said.
"In this way, your Fenghuo Sect was really founded by the King of the Northern Liao Northern Courtyard!" Xiao Yihe said with a smile.
Ma Yudong smiled, "I said it below, Ming people don't say dark words." Since we have the same enemy, I think we can be friends for a while and deal with the common enemy together. ”
"Ma You's envoy should know that the people from Lonely Night City are also here, and they are here to escort the princess of Xishu to Beiliao safely. Xiao Yi said.
"Of course I know, that's why I came to talk to my lord about how to deal with our common enemy. Ma Yudong said.
Xiao Yihe invited Ma Yudong to sit down, and then personally poured him a glass of wine.
"I'd like to hear from you how to deal with a common enemy. ”
"It's very simple," Ma Yudong said, "Your Excellency will help us stop the people of Lonely Night City, and we will kill the princess of Xishu!"
Xiao Yihe squinted his eyes slightly, and asked meaningfully: "Then why don't you go to stop the people of Lonely Night City and let me take someone to kill Princess Xishu?" This time I only brought more than 100 people over, and there are nearly 1,000 people over there in Lonely Night City, how can we stop them!"
Ma Yudong glared at Xiao Yihe, seemingly displeased.
"I don't know how many soldiers and horses you have over there, let's sum it up. Xiao Yihe asked again.
"It's about the same as you," Ma Yudong replied, "so we can't stop the people of Lonely Night City." ”
"Really?" Xiao Yi was suspicious, "There are at least more than 100 people in the Xishu Sending Relatives Mission, and your sect only sent such a few people to assassinate the princess this time, which makes Zai Xia have to be suspicious." ”
