Steward Liu received the news, he didn't want to tell Ding Lan the news, but Ding Lan had been waiting for Zhuo Quan's news, someone came to report, how could she not pay attention.

Ding Lan looked at Steward Liu, who pretended to be nothing, and asked, "Old Liu, what's the matter?"

Steward Liu smiled unnaturally and said, "Madam, it's okay, it's just some inconsequential trivialities." ”

Ding Lan was very apprehensive in her heart, but she pretended to be calm on her face and looked at Steward Liu and said, "Old Liu, tell the truth, I can still stand it." ”

Steward Liu knew that he couldn't hide it, and suddenly said with tears in his eyes: "Madam, master, the whereabouts of the master are unknown." ”

"You... What are you talking about?" Ding Lan asked with a trembling voice.

Steward Liu knelt down and said, "Master... Defeated, nowhere to be found. ”

Ding Lanren shook suddenly, swallowed his throat suddenly, and then turned around indifferently, and the maids around her wanted to help her, but she waved her hand and refused.

Ding Lan walked slowly, and suddenly fell to the ground.

Zhuo's mansion was in chaos in an instant.

In the peach orchard of Taoyuan Village, Lu Yuchi is drinking with Zhitong in this jar of peach blossom brewing.

Ji Tong's face was neither happy nor sad, and he couldn't see any emotion. But Lu Yuchi always felt that Zhi Tong showed a sense of sadness, and he thought it was because of the destruction of his family.

Lu Yuchi said: "Miss Su, now that General Weihu has been defeated and is missing, the southern rebels are strong. Zhao's civil turmoil, the northern Hongguo is about to move again, preparing to go south, this is probably not a place to stay for a long time, I don't know if the girl has a place to go. ”

When Zhi Tong, who was originally expressionless, heard this, he suddenly looked at Lu Yuchi as if he was frightened by something and asked, "Who are you talking about?"

"Miss Su, don't be anxious, Hong Guo is just preparing to attack Huya Pass, and he may not be able to break through, so he will be fine for the time being. Lu Yuchi said.

"No, I mean, who did you say the Southern rebels defeated?" asked Zhi Tong.

"Ah, oh, General Weihu, General Zhuo. Alas, it was said that he used himself as bait in order to let his subordinates escape. His subordinates broke through, but he was nowhere to be found. Speaking of which, I also know a junior disciple of the Five Pulses, who is the son of General Zhuo, oh, and now he has been expelled from the sect. Lu Yuchi said.

Zhetong didn't hear Lu Yuchi's words clearly, she had already stood up and walked outside the peach orchard.

Lu Yuchi shouted, "Miss Su, where are you going?"

Zhi Tong didn't answer, just took the horse and hurried towards Zhao Jing.

Lu Yuchi was a little worried, and also rushed over after him.

A few days later, Zhe Tong came to Zhao Jing again. She secretly entered Zhuo's Mansion and found that Zhuo's Mansion was lifeless. A few maids were boiling medicine, and she secretly came to Ding Lan's door, and the door was open. She walked in and saw Ding Lan lying on the bed, her hair was much whiter, her face was pale, and she looked haggard.

Ding Lan also heard someone coming in, she turned her head to look and found that it was Zhitong.

Zhitong found that Ding Lan saw him and turned around to leave.

Ding Lan shouted with difficulty: "Tong girl, don't go." ”

Zhitong stopped and looked at Ding Lan with teary eyes.

Ding Lan looked at Tong kindly and said, "Girl Tong, come here." ”

Zhi Tong walked a few steps, but there was still some distance from Ding Lan's bedside.

Ding Lan said, "You come closer, come to the bedside." ”

Zhi Tong slowly walked to the side of the bed, looked at Ding Lan and shouted, "Auntie." ”

Ding Lan looked at Tong with tears in her eyes and said, "Girl Tong, I'm sorry, I know... You hate me. It's my fault, don't blame you... Yi'er, you want to hate... Just hate me. ”

Zhi Tong shook his head and said, "Auntie, I don't hate you. ”

"Really... Of?" Ding Lan asked with great strength, coughing a few times after asking.

Zhi Tong hurriedly comforted Ding Lan and nodded hurriedly.

Ding Lan stretched out a hand, wanting to shake Ren Tong's hand.

Ji Tong stretched out his hand for Ding Lan to grab.

Ding Lan looked at Zhi Tong and said, "Don't hate me... It's just, I'm just... Don't want to... I don't want to be Yi'er... Leave me, but I... Wrong. In fact... In my heart... You're like me... My daughter, would you like... Will you call me... Mother?"

Zhi Tong nodded with tears in his eyes, and slowly opened his mouth and shouted: "Mother." ”

Ding Lan's pale face showed a smile, looking very happy and happy, looked at the door, and then looked at Shi Tong and asked, "Yi'er, Yi'er... Are you back?"

Zhi Tong looked at Ding Lan and said, "I haven't seen Brother Yi?"

Ding Lan said and looked at the door, how she hoped that Zhuo Yi would suddenly appear at the door and run to her to shout mother. Ding Lan looked at Zhuo Yi and said, "Girl Tong, last time... After you're gone, Yi'er... He just... Gone out to find you, he... He's been... It's been a long time since I've been back. You... Go and find... Find him, and him... Let's leave together and find a... A calm place, a peaceful place... of a lifetime. ”

After Ding Lan finished saying this, it was as if he had used all his strength, and then his hand slipped from Zhi Tong's hand. She looked at the door with both eyes, as if she saw Zhuo Yi anxiously entering from the door and shouting in front of her, "Mother." ”

Ding Lan smiled on her cheeks and tears in the corners of her eyes, and just closed her eyes.

Zhe Tong instantly cried out loud and shouted, "Mother, mother, aunt, aunt." ”

Zhe Tong's voice alarmed the people in Zhuo's mansion, and the maids came in, and soon Steward Liu also came with a doctor.

The doctor looked at Ding Lan, then shook his head, looked at Steward Liu and said, "I've gone." ”

Steward Liu's face was sad when he heard this, and he knelt on the ground and cried.

Zhitong lay on Ding Lan's side and cried all the time.

After the doctor left, Steward Liu looked at Zhi Tong and asked, "Miss Zhi, you are here." You were with you when Madame left?"

Zhi Tong nodded.

Steward Liu asked, "Madame, do you have anything to say?"

Zhi Tong's face turned red, nodded and said, "It's for me and Brother Yi." ”

Steward Liu nodded, looked at Zhi Tong and said, "Madam has always regretted it, and I must have less regret when I was able to see you before I died." ”

Hearing this, Zhi Tong burst into tears again, she looked at Steward Liu and asked, "Brother Yi didn't come back?"

Steward Liu's face was extremely bad, and he said, "Actually, when the messenger came to report last time, he brought news from the young master. He disappeared with the old man. I was afraid that Mrs. knew that she couldn't bear it, so she concealed the news of the young master, but I didn't expect Mrs. to still... ”

Hearing this, Zhi Tong's body shook, and his face turned pale.

Steward Liu said, "Miss Zhe, are you okay?"

Ji Tong shook his head.

Steward Liu said slightly persuasively: "It's just that it's missing, but it's not necessarily..." ”

Zhi Tong nodded and said, "I know, I believe that Brother Yi will not die like this, and I will find him." ”

After Zhi Tong finished speaking, he knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Ding Lan a few times, then tied a hemp belt on his head and left.

Lu Yuchi knew that Zhi Tong didn't like him to get too close, so he just followed silently.

After Zhe Tong came out, he saw Lu Yuchi and asked him not to follow him, saying that he still had something to deal with and left. Zhitong went directly south to find news about Zhuo Yi, she first came to the place where the official army and the rebels were fighting, and inquired about the place where Zhuo Quan broke through.

In the 100,000 mountains, Zhuo Quan sighed and said, "It seems that we are really trapped and killed here." ”

Zhuo Yi looked at the sky and said, "Not necessarily, maybe there is a way." ”

"Oh," Zhuo Quan's eyes lit up and asked, "What way?"

Zhuo Yi looked at the big river on the other side of the 100,000 mountains and said, "Cross the river." ”

Zhuo Quan shook his head and said, "How to cross? Not to mention that the river is so urgent, just to say that the cliff on the other side of the river, how to go up?"

Zhuo Yi looked at the sky and said, "I'm afraid it's going to rain." ”

Zhuo Quan looked up from the sky, saw the heavy black clouds fluttering in the sky, nodded and said to a guard beside him: "Are there any locals among our soldiers?"

The pro-person went down and asked, and there were really two.

Zhuo Quan learned from the mouths of the two that there would be several heavy rains at this time of year, which would raise the river, but at that time the river would be very fast, and no one had ever tried to cross the river at that time.

Zhuo Quan said softly: "Maybe you can give it a try." ”

Zhuo Yi said: "Then hurry up, quickly cut down wood and build boats, rub grass ropes, and weave rope ladders." ”

Zhuo Quan immediately ordered all the soldiers to start cutting wood and making boats. Two days later, the soldiers had made enough wooden boats for them to cross the river. They were in groups of five boats, connected by straw ropes.

Zhuo Yi looked at the cloudy sky, he was already mad at this time, and he hurriedly said, "The rain is coming." I take the lead, and you follow. ”

Zhuo Quan patted Zhuo Yi on the shoulder and signaled him to be careful.

Zhuo Yi nodded, and took the lead in rowing towards the other side of the river with a group of wooden boats. The wooden boats behind were launched one after another, and three to four people could stand on each boat, and for a time hundreds of boats competed for the current, heading towards the opposite shore.

As soon as Zhuo Yi's boat slipped into the river, the rain began to fall. The rain crackled on the water, muffling the sound of people talking. The river began to rise visibly with the naked eye, and the water flow became turbulent.

By the time Zhuo Yi's group reached the opposite bank, the river had risen by about half a zhang. Zhuo Yi performed light skills and landed ashore first. Then he turned around and threw out the rope ladder that he had already braided in his hand, and tied the other side of the rope ladder to a large stone. The soldiers climbed up to the opposite shore one after another, and lowered more rope ladders.

But the rainstorm was so fast that four groups were washed down by the river before they could get up. One of them was Zhuo Quan's group, because he was behind the palace, so he had just crossed the middle of the river not far away.

Zhuo Yi saw it, and hurriedly grabbed a rope ladder and threw it to the nearest group, and the group of soldiers reacted quickly, grabbed it, and was pulled up by Zhuo Yi.

Zhuo Yi flew down with a light skill, chasing after the nearest of the remaining three groups. He pointed to the surface of the water, tread the waves, directly in front of the current, and used his palms at the same time to exert the King Kong palm, the river water reverberate, the river swung this group of wooden boats, Zhuo Yi took advantage of the situation and kicked the wooden boats again and again, pushing them to the shore. The soldiers on the shore lowered the rope ladder in time to pull the group.

Zhuo Yi continued to perform light skills and wanted to be in the third group, because he was performing in the heavy rain again and again, and he could only use the water surface under his feet to exert his strength, which made him a little tired. So he stepped on one of the wooden boats of the third group and wanted to rest, but he accidentally looked down and found that there was a cliff not far away, and the river was carrying the two sets of wooden boats somewhere. He didn't care about resting, he pulled the straw rope with one hand and threw the group of wooden boats forward, and then connected his legs to the side of the tail end of the five boats and pushed them towards the shore. At this time, the river had risen to the point that it was almost level with the shore, and the soldiers had good martial arts and made appointments to go ashore.

The last group of wooden boats was the wooden boat where Zhuo Quan was, and at this moment it was only more than a foot away from the cliff on the river, and Zhuo Yi used the inside of his whole body to quickly slide across the water and chase towards the last group of wooden boats. But the soldiers on two wooden boats still fell off the cliff. Their terrible screams were mixed with the sound of rain and waterfalls. Fortunately, Zhuo Quan was on the front of the wooden boat, and Zhuo Yi grabbed the front end of a wooden boat. He yelled, "Hold on." Then with all his strength, he threw the group of wooden boats towards the opposite shore. But he himself was too tired, he was in the air, and he had nowhere to focus at this time, so he fell directly off the cliff.

Zhuo Quan looked at Zhuo Yi, who had fallen off the cliff, and coaxed: "No." ”

Zhuo Quan led the soldiers to look for two days, but because the rain was too heavy, it was difficult to find, and no trace of Zhuo Yi was found.

The rebels kept the news at bay, and little news came out. Outside only knows that Zhuo Quan has broken through to the south, and as for whether he succeeds or not, it is not clear whether he is dead or alive.

When Zhetong came, the sky had just cleared. She secretly caught several rebels before asking for the news, she was already a seasoned veteran, and her means were very in place. She pursued all the way to the vicinity of the 100,000 Mountain, where she was stopped by a group of rebels.

When the rebels saw that it was a girl with a masked face, they became agitated for a while. This group of rebels doesn't know how long it has been since they have seen a woman, not to mention a beautiful woman, just an ugly monster, I'm afraid I can't help it.

Zhi Tong is no longer the former Zhi Tong, and at this time, he is worried about Zhuo Yi's comfort, and he has a lot of killing opportunities in his heart. With a wave of her palm, she killed more than a dozen rebels. His internal strength contains a poison that is exhaustive, and no one else can resist it except for those who have been treated by the dust beads today. As long as you are poisoned by Zhetong, you can only turn it into dry carbon.

Zhi Tong rushed directly into the 100,000 mountains, she found traces left by many people in the 100,000 mountains, but she didn't find anyone, and finally she found the wooden boat, only to understand that Zhuo Yi and they should have crossed the river. So she crossed the river on the lake that had not yet fallen, using the wooden boats left by the officers and soldiers before. She tracked along the way, and finally saw a tired champion in the distance.

Zhi Tong was a little overjoyed and hurried over. She recognized Zhuo Quan at a glance, and Zhuo Quan seemed to have been hit hard at this time, his temples were white, and he looked very embarrassed and depressed. Zhetong searched for a long time and didn't find Zhuo Yi's figure, she was a little lost and worried.

Zhuo Quan also found Tong, and he shouted sadly: "Tong girl." ”

Zhitong looked at Zhuo Quan and said, "Uncle Zhuo, it's great that you're okay." Assist... Where's Brother Yi?"

Hearing Ji Tong's question, Zhuo Quan and the soldiers were a little sad. Zhuo Quan looked at Zhi Tong, opened his mouth for a long time, and finally said: "He fell off the cliff in order to save me." ”
