On the wasteland, the withered grass is gradually fading, the new greenery is slowly emerging, and the full spring is approaching, a vibrant scene. The sun was shining, and there was a hint of warmth in the breeze.

Mo Wan'er was innocent and bright, running on the grass to her heart's content, and all the unhappy things had been thrown out of the clouds. Yan Shan and Qin Xiaolian followed, but they had their own hearts.

Yan Shan's expression was calm, and he said casually: "Eldest sister, I think there are some things that you still have to decide." ”

Qin Xiaolian smiled and said softly, "If Brother Yan doesn't dislike the humble status of the little girl, can you call me Sister Qin?"

Yan Shan didn't think about it, and said with a light smile: "Sister Qin." ”

Qin Xiaolian nodded happily and asked, "What did Brother Yan want to say just now?"

Yan Shan Zhengse said: "This time I go to Jingzhao Mansion, if Sister Qin and Wan'er go with me, they will not escape the fate of being hunted down." If they go on the road separately, Sister Qin and Wan'er will face unknown risks. Where to go, it's better for Sister Qin to make her own decisions. ”

Qin Xiaolian pondered for a moment and said with a light smile: "If there is hope for life, I will not give up." However, I am not afraid of death. Brother Yan is resolute and will be able to make the best choice. At the moment I left home, I had already made up my mind that everything for myself and Wan'er would be decided by Brother Yan. ”

Yan Shan nodded slightly, his heart was warm, but there was also an invisible shackle.

The three of them walked through the wasteland and into a wooded field.

Mo Wan'er had already slept quietly in Yan Shan's arms. Although Qin Xiaolian was exhausted, she still moved forward stubbornly. Before dark, they had to rush to the town of Funiu, or they would have to sleep in the wilderness.

Suddenly, four figures burst out of the forest, each holding a ghost-headed knife, blocking the way.

Yan Shan and Qin Xiaolian stopped and looked at the four of them, their expressions calm and unwavering.

A man with a big waist stepped forward and said loudly: "I opened this mountain, and I planted this tree." If you want to cross this road, leave the money to buy the road. Dare to say no words, step forward and rub your head. Died in the wilderness, and was buried in a bad place. Sent to Wangxiangtai, never come back. ”

This man is five big and three thick, but the green forest incision is not ambiguous at all.

Yan Shan smiled indifferently and gently handed Mo Wan'er to Qin Xiaolian. Then, he put one hand into his arms, took out a silver ticket, and said with a smile: "Big brothers, this is a thousand taels of silver tickets, please smile!"

The man with a big waist stepped forward, took the silver ticket, inspected it, and said loudly: "Get out of the way!"

Hearing this, the other three got out of the way, but their eyes were still on Qin Xiaolian's bumpy body.

Yan Shan saluted the four of them, gently hugged Mo Wan'er in his arms, and continued to hurry. Qin Xiaolian was indifferent and followed closely.

Seeing this, the other three hurriedly ran to the man with a big waist and muttered quietly.

Yanshan's ear power is excellent, and he can really hear it.

The man with a big waist seemed to have made up his mind, and said in a deep voice: "Little brother, wait!"

Yan Shan stopped, didn't look back, and asked casually, "What else does this big brother command?"

The man with a big waist raised the silver ticket in his hand and said coldly: "This thousand taels can only buy you safe, and the child can also let you take it away, but this woman must stay." ”

Yan Shan smiled indifferently and whispered in Mo Wan'er's ear, "Wan'er, close your eyes." ”

Mo Wan'er, who had just been awakened, obediently closed her eyes again.

Yan Shan slowly turned around, grasped the rusty long sword, and swung it out, as fast as a ghost.

The four of them were horrified, and they immediately regretted it, but it was too late.

The black sword shadow flashed, and the four of them slowly fell. A shallow streak of blood appeared on everyone's throat.
