Chapter 232: Falling into a Trap (I)
There were some emotional conflicts with Su Jia in the room just now, and Xiao Tian was also very sad at this time, did he feel guilty when he walked out of the room. Although this is not the first time he has had a conflict with Su Jia, but I don't know why, Xiao Tian has a bad premonition in his heart that he doesn't dare to continue to think, and in addition to the loneliness and accident, there is also a trace of imperceptible tension and worry in his heart.
In order to make his mood as calm as possible, Xiao Tian just said that he wanted to leave temporarily to see the road conditions of the Shenfeng Cliff outside the town, but in fact, he also took this gap to go out to relax. It turned out that he was inseparable from Su Jia's side every time, laughing with her, and talking with her, but now that I think about it, Xiao Tian seems to have not thought about problems or solved feelings alone for a long time.
So, Xiao Tian breathed a deep sigh of relief, tried to calm his mind, and then walked down the stairs on the second floor, ready to leave the inn.
However, what Xiao Tian didn't notice was that at a table in the center of the inn hall, two pairs of eyes were secretly staring at him......
Xiao Tian still didn't know the surrounding environment, and walked out of the inn without looking back, and then walked in another direction outside the town. Shenfeng Cliff is originally a series of mountains, and this town is just sandwiched between the mountains, so out of this town, if you want to get out of Shenfeng Cliff, you still need a long-distance mountain road, and what Xiao Tian wants to do at this time is to explore the road......
And at the moment when Xiao Tian's figure left the inn and turned a corner, the two people who were staring at Xiao Tian in the middle of the hall just now were still whispering. The two of them were dressed in avant-garde clothes, and they were still wearing official boots under their feet. He is also wearing a saber on his body, and it seems that his identity is not ordinary.
"Hey, you just saw that...... one of them said secretly. "That stab wound on the left side of the kid's face just now......"
The other person nodded slightly, then took a sip of the glass of wine on the table, and then said: "General Wang said, the one who is with the girl in blue is this young man, and this kid seems to have appeared in Xiao Wuzhong's house before......"
"Then why is he alone, the girl in blue?" asked the man at first.
"Who knows? They don't always have to be together...... "Another added. "But as long as you find one, I believe that the girl in blue won't be able to escape......"
"So what now, are the two of us going to follow?"
"Keep up. Let's take a look at this kid's movements first. If he does go in the direction of the outside of the town, we can fly the pigeon and pass the book to General Wang, so that General Wang can arrange an ambush there, and he will definitely be unable to escape......"
Let's talk about it. The two men nodded. Then he got up and walked to the counter of the inn, as if he wanted to settle the bill.
"Shopkeeper, check out!" one of them shouted unceremoniously.
When the shopkeeper saw it, he immediately ran to the counter from the stairs, counted the wine money for them, and then said with a smile: "Two guest officers, a total of one or two or four dollars......
However, as soon as the shopkeeper finished speaking, the man just now said angrily, "What. I drank a few glasses of broken wine and ate two plates of rotten dishes. Just collect so much money?Just the two of us, are you impatient?" With that, the man slammed his saber into the counter.
There was a loud bang, so frightened that the shopkeeper's head didn't dare to raise it all. Seeing that the other party had a knife in his hand, and he was dressed like an official, the shopkeeper didn't dare to squeak anymore, but held his head with his hand and trembled: "No, no, the little one doesn't dare to ...... If the two officials are not happy, the money for wine and food can be free......"
When the man with the knife saw it, he turned his head and said, "Hmph, this is pretty much the same, I have to force your grandfather and the two of you to do it yourself-" After speaking, the two of them left outside the inn without looking back, intending to follow Xiao Tian, who had just left......
In Su Jia's room, Su Jia was still feeling uncomfortable about the emotional conflict between herself and Xiao Tian just now, although she knew that Xiao Tian was also for herself, and she didn't really want to have a conflict with herself, but she kept thinking of her relationship with Xiao Tian, which was linked to her hatred, and an indescribable hesitation and pain were entangled in Su Jia's heart.
Su Jia raised her buried head, her eyes were a little red from crying - it seemed that although Su Jia was not excited on the surface just now, she was actually very sad in her heart.
Thinking of what Xiao Tian just said about going outside the town to explore the way, Su Jia also thought that Xiao Tian was uncomfortable and wanted to go out for a walk, Su Jia also slowly stood up and wanted to go outside.
So, Su Jia sorted out her simple outfit and went out of her room, and then because she was not sure where Xiao Tian went, Su Jia still went to Xiao Tian's room next door to determine whether Xiao Tian really went out.
"Ah Tian......" Su Jia still screamed softly first, and then slowly pushed the door open, and found that there was no one inside-it seemed that Xiao Tian had really gone out.
So, Su Jia continued to walk down the stairs and prepared to leave the inn. However, as soon as I got to the first floor, I found that the shopkeeper at the counter looked a little trembling.
Su Jia was not only curious about where she was in her heart, but also wanted to ask about the situation. Su Jia slowly walked to the counter, and then asked the shopkeeper, "Shopkeeper, what's wrong with you, has something happened?"
The shopkeeper didn't seem to have recovered from the oppression just now, and when he saw Su Jia asking him about the situation just now, he immediately replied, "Just ...... Just now there were two people who looked like the government, and they ...... They thought the food and drinks were too expensive, so they ...... I just threatened with my saber, and I didn't ...... I didn't dare to take them money, so I let them go......"
"Is there something wrong with the two people who look like the government?" asked Su Jia again.
"I don't know very well......," continued the shopkeeper, "but judging by their dress, they seem to be from the government...... And the tone in which they speak, the way they take their knives...... Now that I think about it, I'm still a little scared......"
"When did they leave?" asked Su Jia casually again.
"That's it...... Just now,...... shopkeeper continued with a slight stammer, "and they ...... just after another young man in brown clothes left the inn The two of them left in the same direction......"
So said the shopkeeper. Su Jia's heart couldn't help but feel a chill, although she herself didn't know why she suddenly felt like this. Su Jia looked down. The soles of the counters were found and the shoes had been kicked and beaten. Su Jia frowned, and said secretly in her heart: "This is the trace of official boots, and it is not an ordinary official boot, a bit like the shoes of the guards of the military department...... After Ah Tian left, they also left, and they were in the same direction as Ah Tian. It may be a little small, but if it's true...... No way. I'll have to go with me and see how it goes......"
So, Su Jia looked up and asked the shopkeeper again: "How long have those two people left, and where did they leave?"
The shopkeeper pointed to the door and said, "It wasn't long before now." Be...... I left the ...... in the direction of the left."
"Thank you, shopkeeper—" Su Jia responded, and then looked at the direction the shopkeeper pointed just now with a more worried look, and then left the inn and followed in that direction......
Xiao Tian continued to walk slowly in the town. He was not in a hurry either. Patiently inquiring some passers-by, Xiao Tian also knew where the other exit from the town was. 、
Walking in the direction of the exit, Xiao Tian's mood still did not calm down, and the scene of the contradiction with Su Jia just now still echoed in his mind. came out to relax for a while, Xiao Tian couldn't help but feel that the contradiction with Su Jia just now was not his own question asked decently and directly, after all, the hatred of the wind chasing faction was originally a shadow in Su Jia's heart. Now that he has deliberately emphasized it, Su Jia's heart is naturally sad. However, the sentence that made Xiao Tian feel the most stinging in his heart. It is Su Jia's last sentence "Let's leave it like this......". Although that sentence will be understood in different ways in different environments, I don't know where the idea came from, and it seems that a very bad premonition comes to mind.
Not only was this uncomfortable sentence, but after Xiao Tian came out of the inn, he also unconsciously recalled what he and Su Jia had said when they were in Xiaojia Villa......
......
"Stay with you...... But if one day, I mean if...... If one day the two of us were separated, would we still be as happy as we are now?"
......
"Just like what you said just now, the stones thrown into the lake will drift with the current. But the road to affection is long, how can we see clearly in the future life? If we put more effort into it, we will have more composure in our feelings, won't we? Just like if you throw a stone into a lake, how do you know whether the stone is really drifting with the tide or sinking to the bottom of the lake? We can't change the weight of the stone, but we can change the number of stones thrown, and we can weigh the weight. As long as the stone sinks enough, there will always be one that sinks to the bottom of the lake, right?"
......
The conversations between himself and Su Jia in Xiaojia Villa suddenly poured into Xiao Tian's mind in an instant, making Xiao Tian feel a trace of inexplicable depression.
"Damn, what's wrong with me, why did I think of these ......" Xiao Tian himself was a little depressed in his heart, he pounded his head with his hand, and said secretly in his heart, "Why do I have a bad premonition, a very terrible premonition......"
After thinking about it so much, Xiao Tian couldn't help but feel that there were so many thoughts with unknown fear in his mind that he had never had before, and Xiao Tian's mood couldn't help but gradually change from grief to worry. But Xiao Tian still tried to calm his mood and continued to walk in the direction of the exit of the town he knew......
"Found it, that kid really found the direction of the exit of the town, it seems that he really wants to leave here......" The two people who had been searching for Xiao Tian's direction finally found Xiao Tian's whereabouts, and one of them mentioned softly.
"That's right......" the other nodded and said softly, "General Wang happened to be in ambush right there, and when that kid passed, he couldn't fly...... Quick, now we will send a message to General Wang and report the situation to him......"
So, when Xiao Tian was away from the sight of the two, the two of them found a corner, tied a letter to the flying pigeon, and then asked the flying pigeon to pass the book to Wang Dasheng, who had been waiting for news outside the town.
And Su Jia also happened to follow at this time, although he didn't see Xiao Tian's figure, but he happened to see the scene of these two people dressed in official mansions flying pigeons and passing books.
Thinking of what else might be going on between these two people, Su Jia unconsciously approached the two of them, wanting to hear their whispered words......
"Hey, you said that kid was going to be ambushed by General Wang, what would General Wang do with him?"
"He is the direct sinner who killed Xiao Wuzhong, and of course General Wang will not let him go...... But if General Wang wants to kill that kid and the other girl in blue. Maybe General Wang will capture that kid alive first......"
Su Jia leaned against a pillar and heard the content of the conversation between the two, and couldn't help but be surprised: "Wang Dasheng actually discovered the movements of me and Ah Tian so quickly...... That's right. The corpses of those killers, Wang Dasheng must have seen the corpses of those masked assassins, and he was familiar with the mountain road in and out of this Shenfeng Cliff, so he quickly sent eyeliner to find me and Ah Tian. If it is true as they say, Wang Dasheng has already set up an ambush at the exit...... It's not good, Ah Tian is in danger, I have to save him-"
Wang Dasheng is insidious and vicious. He also had a good impression of Xiao Tian, thinking of the danger and approaching Xiao Tian step by step, Su Jia's eyes were certain. No matter what conflicts she had with Xiao Tian just now, in the face of her life, Su Jia had no other choice......
"What now, we're going to keep following that kid. Or don't startle the snake. Wait a while, wait for that kid to fall into General Wang's ambush, and then we will go back?" one of them asked again.
"Let's follow first...... the other continued to whisper, "In case that kid has any disguise in the middle, we can report the situation to General Wang in time......
So, the two of them prepared to leave the corner and continued to follow in the direction that Xiao Tian left. However, before the two of them could take two steps. A cool breeze blew, and a blue figure instantly swept past the two of them. Suddenly, he stood in front of the two of them.
The two were also frightened, and the person standing in front was none other than Su Jia. Passing by like a ghost, standing in front of the two at this time, Su Jia was holding a ghost knife in his hand, and his eyes were full of cold murderous aura. In the eyes of those two, the murderous aura exuded by Su Jia's body was not inferior to Wang Dasheng at all.
The two looked at Su Jia who suddenly appeared in front of them with frightened eyes, so scared that they couldn't even speak......
Xiao Tian continued to walk in the direction he had said hello before, and sure enough, it didn't take long for Xiao Tian to come to another gate in the town.
"The exit is really here...... Xiao Tian muttered softly, then looked at the mountain road in front of him, and then continued, "There is indeed a winding mountain road ahead, it seems that this Shenfeng Cliff is really not small, it may be the right choice to explore the road in advance......
So, Xiao Tian was alone and continued to move towards the winding path of the mountain road. Along the way, Xiao Tian's heart was still uncomfortable, although this exploration of Xiao Tian was regarded as a distraction by himself, but the gloom in his heart could not linger, but he was even more melancholy and confused.
"I don't know if Jia'er is just as uncomfortable as me in the inn now......" Xiao Tian habitually cared about Su Jia at this time, and said with some guilt in his heart, "I did say something excessive just now, Jia'er has experienced so many painful things after all, I bring it up at this time, no matter how strong she is as a girl, she will feel uncomfortable...... Before leaving, Jia'er was already sad and crying, I guess she is still sad this time, I really went too far to do this......"
Xiao Tian couldn't help but start blaming himself, but after thinking about it, Xiao Tian found that he unconsciously cared about Su Jialai again. Although he and Su Jia had an emotional conflict just now, in the final analysis, Xiao Tian and Su Jia still care about each other, otherwise they wouldn't be sad for each other, and they wouldn't still care about each other at this time. In fact, at this time, Su Jia was also concerned about Xiao Tian's safety, but Xiao Tian, who was in danger, had not yet noticed it......
After walking for a long time, Xiao Tian had already left the town far away, and he couldn't see the outline of the town when he turned back. But the mountain road is still very rugged, and there are many winding paths, Xiao Tian himself feels that he doesn't dare to continue walking, otherwise he may not remember the way back.
"Let's go back to the cliff platform in front of us......" Xiao Tian muttered softly as he looked at a cliff in the distance—the place was quite wide—in the distance.
So, Xiao Tian continued to take steps, walked through a few bends on the Shenfeng Cliff Mountain Road, and the Shenfeng Cliff in front of him was getting closer and closer to him.
But Xiao Tian would never have dreamed that the danger he had never had before was getting closer and closer to him...... (To be continued......)
