3. Concern makes people chaotic everywhere (1)
Yan Lin went on the road alone.
When I got on the road, it was already nightfall, and I didn't walk long and I started to lose my fingers, so I didn't hurry again. At dawn the next day, I hit the road again and came to a small town along the Zhangjiang River. His filthy white clothes were too conspicuous, so he dropped a dagger, changed it to silver taels, and put on a blue-gray cloth robe. After thinking about it, I bought another white linen cloth and tied it around my waist.
The guy who sold clothes asked, "Childe is filial piety?"
Yan Lin was silent and pinned the suona to his waist again.
As soon as he stepped out of the shop, his body stopped there, listening carefully. He felt like someone was following him along the way, and he heard a noise just now. He thought it was someone from Baili Jiuzhai, but he suddenly turned around, but he didn't see any suspicious person. Then the corners of his mouth raised slightly, and he shook his head helplessly.
Instead of going on the road at once, he went to buy a good horse, and then went to the hotel to buy a duck leg and put it in a bag on the horse. He led the horse to the outskirts and disappeared in a puff of smoke.
After a long time, there was only one horse in the whole forest, and the fragrance of duck legs lingered for a long time. At this time there was a petite girl, her eyes sparkling, and she approached the horses with her sloppy saliva. As soon as her hand reached into the bag, she heard someone behind her: "I knew it was you." ”
Yan Lin stood behind Tong Xi, holding his hands in front of his chest, looking at her helplessly.
Tong Xi immediately stopped: "I don't have anything to steal from Brother Yan, Brother Yan must not tell Senior Sister!"
As she said this, both of them had a tense look on their faces. Yan Lin felt that his heart had been pricked again, and it seemed that the blood in his body had stopped flowing in an instant.
Yan Lin said: "You slipped out by yourself?"
Tong Xi nodded.
Yan Lin pulled Tong Xi and said, "I'll send you back." ”
Tong Xi shook off Yan Lin: "Don't want Brother Yan, Xiao Tong wants to follow Brother Yan." ”
"It's dangerous. ”
"It's not dangerous to have Brother Yan here!"
"How capable am I? I'm afraid I won't be able to protect you. Let's go, go to Dai'an Peak with Senior Sister Duan. Saying that, Yan Lin was about to pull Tong Xi away.
Tong Xi sobbed at this time, crying so much that the pear blossoms brought rain, which was heartbreaking.
Yan Lin was at a loss for a moment, afraid that he would catch her too hard and hurt her, and his tongue was knotted: "Don't...... Crying ......"
Tong Xi was still sobbing, and Yan Lin was ruthless: "It's useless to cry, your safety is still important." ”
"Are you going to leave me too?" Tong Xi suddenly collapsed, "Master and Senior Sister are gone, and Xiao Tong is only Brother Yan left." Now Brother Yan is also going to leave Xiao Tong behind, and Xiao Tong can only be alone!"
This sentence pierces the heart. Yan Lin didn't have this sense of drifting, the two towering trees that used to protect everyone had fallen, what would they do with these clinging people in the future?
Yan Lin's heart softened.
He hugged the crying Tong Xi into his arms and touched her head to comfort: "Okay, okay, I'll take you, I won't leave you alone." ”
Tong Xi raised his head and asked, "Brother Yan, where are we going, where do you want to hide Master's Inner Dan?"
Yan Lin looked in the direction of Miao Jiang: "Little boy, have you ever heard of the word black under the lamp? ”
After that, the two rode on horseback and marched for many days before entering the boundary of Miaojiang. In order to fit in, they bought local clothes from Miaojiang, and Tong Xi had gone to change his clothes.
It is when the moon and stars are scarce, and the branches and leaves of the towering trees are connected and connected together, covering the sky. A bonfire burned under the tree, and on the folded roots sat the swallow forest. Yan Lin was dressed in the national costume of Miaojiang, with a black base and embroidered on his chest. The young man's eyes flashed with flames, a little sad, and he rubbed the suona in his hand.
"Brother Yan doesn't blow a song?" Tong Xi asked.
Yan Lin glanced at Tong Xi, only to see her green silk bun, silver jewelry hanging around her neck, smiling skillfully, and couldn't help laughing.
Tong Xi was surprised: "Brother Yan, you are smiling, Xiao Tong hasn't seen you smiling for a long time." ”
Yan Lin rubbed his face: "Is it? I didn't even notice it." ”
Tong Xi said: "Since the accident...... After that, Brother Yan never smiled again. ”
Yan Lin was stunned: "There's nothing worth laughing at......
Tong Xi was about to speak, but saw that Yan Lin already had a serious expression and made a gesture of silence. He extinguished the bonfire with a wave of his palm, cut the reins of the horse with his sword, and poked it behind its buttocks, and the horse ran away on its own, and then grabbed Tong Xi and jumped into the tree.
This series of movements was extremely fast, so fast that Tong Xi didn't even react.
"What's ......?" Tong Xi wanted to ask, but Yan Lin covered his mouth.
"Hold your breath!" Yan Lin whispered in Tong Xi's ear.
After a long time, I saw a group of men and horses carrying torches, walking through the forest. Most of them were on foot, led by horses. The group was overwhelmed, and the light of the fire illuminated half of the woods, followed by a carriage in between. When the team gets closer, you can see the appearance and dress of the leader.
The man's eyebrows were delicate, his eyes were phoenix, and there was a slight hint of arrogance at the corners of his eyes. Thin lips, pointed chin, swaying on a horse. But these are not the most important things, the important thing is that he is dressed in a black corset, with a vermilion embroidered cloak on his shoulders and a sword at his waist. This outfit Yan Lin and Tong Xi are all too familiar, Yan Lin hates: "It's a person from Baili Jiuzhai." ”
Tong Xi immediately held his breath and shrank a little more in fear.
The man with the red phoenix eyes waved his hand, and the entire convoy stopped a mile away. The man squinted his eyes and looked in the direction of Yan Lin and Tong Xi, who didn't dare to breathe at the moment. He beckoned his men over, and a black-clad man hurried under their tree.
Fortunately, the subordinate did not look up, but ran straight towards the fire that had just been extinguished. He reached for a look at the fire and hurried back. The black-clothed subordinate said to the man with Dan Fengyan: "Master Han, the fire is still hot, there are people in the forest!"
Yan Lin's hand was already gripping his sword.
Baili Jiuzhai has two sons surnamed Han, the adopted son of Han Casting Sword, the leader of Baili Jiuzhai Alliance, who is famous in the Central Plains, and they are among the few in the younger generation. One is named Han Gui, the other is named Han Yao, and I don't know which one this is now.
But it doesn't matter which one he is! Yan Lin secretly calculated in his heart, although his own cultivation was also considered a leader, but could he really beat the leader? What's more, there were hundreds of people on the other side, and there were only two people on his side.
The black-clothed subordinate asked the man with red phoenix eyes, "Do you want to send someone to investigate?"
The man with phoenix eyes said: "When I came back from Wanyin Temple, I felt that someone was following me along the way. ”
Hearing "Wanyin Temple", Yan Lin felt that all the blood rushed to his head, and he gritted his teeth: "It's them ......"
The black-clothed subordinate exclaimed, "Someone is following us?"
Dan Fengyan scanned the surroundings with suspicious eyes: "That person's body is outstanding, even I haven't seen half of his figure, let alone you." ”
The black-clothed subordinate asked, "Then do you want to check the surroundings now?"
The man with Danfeng's eyes suppressed his voice and said, "Don't rush first." We don't even know who he is or why he's following us. If you act rashly now, you may be set on fire. He muttered, "You have to find a way to lure him out, it's ......" He said this very quietly, and Yan Lin didn't hear it clearly.
After thinking for a while, a trace of cunning flashed in the corner of the man's eyes, and he suddenly raised his voice to the carriage lane behind him: "Let's go! ”
As he spoke, the red-eyed man led the team away.
When the convoy went away, Yan Lin and Tong Xi jumped down. Tong Xi was stunned and said, "That person just said ......"
Yan Lin answered: "...... Take care of the little nun in the carriage. ”
"That means Senior Sister, they may still be alive?!" Tong Xi cheered.
Yan Lin also had a burst of hope at this moment, as if he had seen the dawn, and his face, which had been tense, eased a lot. He said, "They said they were going to Chidori Valley, and tomorrow we will go into the city to inquire." ”
