The three returned to a house. Ling Quanfei applied medicine to Qi Zhengqing's wound, bandaged the wound, and by the way, tied his hands and feet firmly with water-soaked fine hemp rope. Although this matter seemed unnecessary, Ling Quanfei always felt that it was more thoughtful to do so.

Qi Ying'er covered his hot face, and he felt that his left side of his face had swollen three inches higher. His whole face was red all the time, not because he was beaten by Ding Dong, but because he remembered that his hand had been placed where it shouldn't be, and his face was as hot as if it had been roasted by fire.

Ling Quanfei looked at him, couldn't help but smile, and then pretended to be serious and said, "Ying'er, does your face still hurt?"

"Of course!" Qi Ying'er complained a little that he had to deliberately poke his wounds.

"We've got to rest that girl's life-saving grace. He sat at a round table, and the beautiful teapot on the round table made it difficult for him to look away.

"I think she's ...... Something strange that can't be explained. ”

"Oh, what's strange?" Ling Quanfei looked away at this time, looked at Qi Ying'er and continued to quip: "Could it be that you ......."

Qi Ying'er thought that he was going to make fun of himself again, so she frowned and said, "No!"

"I mean, haven't you seen her before?"

"How do you know what I'm trying to say?" Qi Ying'er was a little surprised by this, this was the doubt in his heart, he felt that Dingdong was someone he knew. And that person wasn't supposed to be here, no, never anywhere.

"While in the pavilion, I noticed that you had watched the girl distracted several times, so I guess you probably knew her. But you're hesitant, and you're not sure if you know her. ”

Qi Ying'er nodded and sat opposite Ling Quanfei.

Ling Quanfei said, "Then who do you think she is?"

Qi Ying'er said: "I think she is the ......"

The door was kicked open, and the light suddenly illuminated the somewhat dimly lit room. Ding Dong stood in the doorway, her waist crossed, her displeasure still sticking to her face. When Qi Ying'er saw him, her face immediately turned red again.

Ding Dong didn't look at Qi Ying'er, and said, "Do you men like to talk about others behind your back?"

Ling Quanfei stood up and bent over and said: "The girl misunderstood, we are actually guessing that a girl like you who is so good and chivalrous should have already become famous in the rivers and lakes, maybe the two of us are lonely and unheard, and we don't know the girl's name." ”

Ding Dong snorted and said, "I want to know my name?" ”

"Why?"

"No, why! I said I wouldn't tell you, I wouldn't tell you. ”

Ling Quanfei smiled bitterly.

Ding Dong glanced at Qi Ying'er, and then said, "I also have questions for you." ”

"Girl, excuse me. Ling Quanfei said politely.

"First, who are you, second, why did you fight the shadows yesterday, third, who are the wounded man you are carrying and the woman who is being carried away by the masked man, what does it have to do with you, and fourth, how did you two end up here. ”

Ling Quanfei was shocked when he heard this: "How did the girl know about the two of us fighting with others last night, could it be that the girl helped last night?"

Ding Dong was suddenly stunned, but she didn't expect that she accidentally told what happened yesterday, she said, "Yes...... What if it's me? Now I'm asking you, and you answer! Why are you asking me the other way around?"

Ling Quanfei clapped his hands and said, "Ah, I should have thought of it when I saw the girl flying out of the silver needle." ”

Qi Ying'er just sat on the side, just sneaking a look at Ding Dong from time to time.

"Answer my question!" Ding Dong said angrily.

Ling Quanfei smiled and said, "Down there is Ling Quanfei, and this is Qi Ying'er." The two of us fought with the dark shadows last night to save the girl and the strong man that the girl said she was talking about. Both of them are our friends, and one of them is a good friend of this little brother......"

Qi Ying'er was excited, and said in her heart: "Why did he say this too!" He saw Ling Quanfei smirk, and then met Ding Dong's gaze.

Ding Dong looked at him and pouted, "You actually have such a good-looking little friend, tsk, I really didn't see it!" ”

Qi Ying'er is now eager to find a crack in the ground to get into.

Ding Dong continued to ask, "Then why did you pretend to be a black shadow man?" Ding Dong pointed at Ling Quanfei.

Ling Quanfei was shocked and said, "Could it be that the girl has been secretly observing us all along?"

"Answer my question first!"

"Good. ”

.......

Night.

The two of them drove for two hours, left Xu Lao's small farmhouse, and followed Xu Lao's guidance, took a shortcut, and soon turned through the forest and came to a flat road.

On the side of the road is a wide farmland, which seems to have been barren for a long time, and then it is a lonely field.

Qi Ying'er looked at a few ridges and suddenly remembered her deceased grandfather. He fell into memory. At that time, he was barefoot, stepping on the loose and soft ground that his grandfather had cultivated, and shouting for his grandfather to come home for dinner. He remembered the figure of his grandfather carrying a hoe, the limerick poems that his grandfather liked to sing, and the fragrant rice made by his second uncle......

He couldn't help but wet his eyes with tears, he looked up at the night sky, and the smiling faces of his grandfather and second uncle seemed to appear on the moon hanging in the sky. He feels that he has been gone for a long time, is he doing well, second uncle?

Ling Quanfei's horse was next to Qi Ying'er, alongside him. He saw Qi Ying'er's sad face in the moonlight, and also heard him sigh with wistfulness. He knew that Qi Ying'er was homesick. He also feels this way from time to time, but he has no home, and the only thing he cares about is just one person, not Pian Xiangyu. Although he likes to pity Xiangyu, there is someone else who can make him nostalgic.

The two horses seemed to understand their hearts and walked forward without hurrying.

Early morning.

The dew soaked Qi Ying'er and Ling Quanfei's clothes.

Not far ahead, a small town looms.

"Is this the town?" Qi Ying'er asked.

"Yes, after this town, you can reach Wanling Mountain in less than three days. ”

"Do you think they're already at Wanling Mountain?"

Ling Quanfei thought for a moment and said, "I hope they notice that something is wrong. He had already told Qi Ying'er about the masked man that Elder Xu had told him.

Qi Ying'er said: "I believe that Sora will definitely adapt to the situation. ”

Ling Quanfei's mind flashed the appearance of that little monk, and said with a smile: "Yes, he is a very powerful little monk. ”

The two dismounted and walked to the center of the market town. They ate a little in a small restaurant and then led their horses on their way. Walking to a street corner, Qi Ying'er suddenly saw a girl and a strong man walking into a tavern not far from him. When he saw it, he almost screamed with joy. Because that's Sun Qiaoer and Li Yuanchen.

Ling Quanfei asked, "What's wrong?"

Qi Ying'er said: "It's Qiao'er and Uncle Li!"

"Where?"

"They went into the tavern. Qi Ying'er pointed to the tavern they had just walked into, "I didn't expect them to come so quickly, I didn't expect to meet them." I'll go find them. ”

Qi Ying'er was just about to leave, but Ling Quanfei put a hand on his shoulder, "Don't go." ”

Qi Ying'er was puzzled: "Why?"

"Someone followed them. ”

Qi Ying'er saw Ling Quanfei staring in the direction of the tavern, and looked over herself.

Ling Quanfei said: "The old woman selling dates next to the tavern, look at his hands. Qi Ying'er looked over and found that the old woman's hands were unusually clean, although her face was full of wrinkles, her hands were really white and firm.

Qi Ying'er exclaimed: "Is it Yi Rong?"

Ling Quanfei nodded slightly, "Don't look at it for too long." Qi Ying'er withdrew her gaze and looked like a middle-aged man selling straw sandals across the tavern.

Ling Quanfei said: "The one who sells straw shoes is too." ”

"Huh?"

Though he had been shouting and selling straw sandals, his eyes never left the tavern door. I guess he could see Qiao'er and Li Yuanchen from that place. ”

"It seems so. ”

"And the charcoal seller in front of him on the right, the beggar begging for food in front of him, and the little girl who is giving money to the beggar......" Ling Quanfei said seventeen people.

Qi Ying'er was so surprised that he could barely speak, but he finally said, "Who are they?"

Ling Quanfei shook his head and said, "He should have been monitoring Qiao'er and Li Yuanchen since they entered the tavern, and may have been following them all the way." ”

"Aren't Qiao'er and Uncle Li very dangerous now?"

"So, we can't afford to startle the snake now. ”

"But they ......"

"They probably aren't going to do it at the moment. ”

"How do you know?"

Judging from their demeanor, it seems that they are just in charge of monitoring Qiao'er and Li Yuanchen, or they are waiting for someone to come. ”

"Waiting for whom?"

"Their heads. ”

"Boss?" Qi Ying'er pondered, "Do you think it will be ......?"

"Shhhhh Ling Quanfei suddenly pulled Qi Ying'er forward, and after walking for a while, the two of them led the horse and flashed into a small alley.

Qi Ying'er asked, "What's wrong? Have we been discovered?"

Ling Quanfei said: "There shouldn't be, their attention is on Qiao'er and the others." But if we stand a little longer, we are likely to be spotted, after all, these two horses are too conspicuous. ”

Qi Ying'er didn't have the heart to listen, her mind was full of things about Qiao'er being in danger. "We have to go back and save them," he said. ”

Ling Quanfei looked around, looked at it again, and after making sure it was safe, he said, "We want to save them, but not now." We must know who the two of them were. ”

"But ......"

Ling Quanfei interrupted him and said, "I know you are eager to save people, but if we act rashly without knowing who the opponent is, we may not only not be able to save the two of them, but we may even ......" He didn't continue, he believed that Qi Ying'er had understood, and he continued: "Let's go our separate ways. You go first, these two horses are led to the town's inn and handed over to them, and these two horses are very swaggering. I'm keeping an eye on the straw sandal seller here. Of the seventeen, he should be the least able to disguise, so I managed to get the information we needed from his mouth. If they do anything, I promise that they won't be put in danger of their lives. ”

Qi Ying'er nodded, "Okay, then what about after I return the horse, where am I going to find you?"

Ling Quanfei thought for a moment, and then whispered to him like this.

After the two agreed, they went their separate ways. Qi Ying'er had two horses in the former and went to find the post station in the town. And Ling Quanfei gently swept the eaves, jumping silently on the roof like a cat. None of the pedestrians on the street saw his movements.
