Chapter 42: The Dragon's Journey (7)
After listening to Master Zhong's narration, Han Xue said, "Uncle Zhong, do you remember where the mountain is?"
Master Zhong said: "It should be in the area of Jiangsu and Zhejiang, the first place we went to after walking out of the mountain was Jinzhou, presumably it should not be far from Jinzhou, but I really can't remember how to go." ”
Han Xue said: "Thank you Uncle Zhong for providing us with such an important clue. ”
Master Zhong said: "Miss Hanxue is polite, if you can find the young owner quickly." I was the only one who had been there, so I went with the girl. “
Han Xue said: "No need, Uncle Zhong, this trip must be extremely dangerous, and you don't know martial arts, just leave these things to our young people." ”
Master Zhong said: "Okay, I'm afraid that if I go, it will only drag the girl down." That girl must be careful, if there is news from the young owner to notify me, if there is any difficulty, I will do my best to help!"
Han Xue said: "Thank you Uncle Zhong!"
The black-clothed thief stood up at this time, stretched his waist, and said, "Okay, now that the matter has been clarified, then I should also go!"
After the black-clothed thief left, Han Xue said again: "Uncle Zhong, without further ado, I want to leave immediately! Zi Yan will trouble you to take care of it." ”
When Zi Yan heard this, she said anxiously: "Sister Hanxue, do you want to go alone?"
Han Xue said: "Hmm!"
Zi Yan said: "No! Zi Yan also wants to go together!"
Han Xue said: "Listen to Zi Yan, it's not like you have nothing to do if you stay here, don't we make an appointment with Sister Chunxiang to meet here? If we all leave, who will contact Sister Chunxiang? Also, you have to take advantage of a few days to heal your injuries as soon as possible, we may have big moves in the next period of time, and you can't do without a good body! After seeing Sister Chunxiang, you will rush there as soon as possible." ”
Zi Yan thought for a while and said, "Then can't we wait for Sister Chunxiang to arrive and go together?"
Han Xue said: "I'm afraid that things will change after a long time, and besides, we don't know how to get to Miaoling Mountain, so I'll go to explore the road first, and then you can go directly when you arrive." ”
Zi Yan reluctantly responded: "Okay, but you must be careful alone!"
Han Xue said: "I will!"
Master Zhong said on the side: "Sure enough, it's better for me to go with Miss Hanxue, maybe I can remember it again when I get there." ”
Han Xue said: "Uncle Zhong, you still stay here, there is something I still need your help with." Our Sister Chunxiang should not be long before she arrives in Yangzhou to meet us, she will definitely not know that Zi Yan is here, and Zi Yan is inconvenient to show up now, so she will have to worry about Zhong Bo to help find someone at that time. ”
Master Zhong said: "This little thing is wrapped up in me! But Hanxue girl, you have to be more careful, but don't be reckless!"
Han Xue said: "Well, I know how to go! Then I'll go and prepare first, and then I'll leave." ”
At this time, Xiao Zhi came over and said, "Master, Liu Gongzi is here again, waiting for you in the living room." ”
Master Zhong said: "Okay, I'll go over now." He said to Han Xue again: "Han Xue girl, then you take care all the way!"
Hanxue nodded.
As soon as Master Zhong left, Han Xue also began to act. Before leaving, she explained to Zi Yan, "I'll leave the matter here to you!" and then went on the road alone.
Since she was still wanted by the government, she had to change her face again. However, there were not many officers and soldiers along the way, and there were only a few standing guard under the city gate. According to the officers and soldiers guarding the city, the black-clothed thief seems to have appeared again, so most of the officers and soldiers surrounded and suppressed the black-clothed thief.
Han Xue thought to herself, this is probably because the black-clothed thief knew that she was going out of the city, so she deliberately showed up to lure away the officers and soldiers. I really don't know who this black-clothed thief is, and why he has to work so hard to help them. I can't figure out these things for a while, so let's wait until I find the young master...... Thinking about it, the cold snow is already outside the city. She found a place where no one was around to remove the disguise, and continued on her way.
Just then, a fast horse came after him from behind. The man on the horse shouted from afar, "Girl Frost, please wait a minute!"
The person who came was none other than that Young Master Liu. Young Master Liu's real name is Liu Zijian, and he is the second son of Master Zhong's world friend, Master Liu, and he can be regarded as a talented and good-looking young man.
I saw Liu Zijian hurriedly jump off the horse, run to Han Xue, and panted and said, "Han Xue girl, finally let me catch up with you!"
Han Xue glanced at him coldly and said, "What are you doing here?"
Liu Zijian said: "I heard that Master Zhong said that you were leaving Yangzhou, so I came non-stop." ”
Han Xue said: "It's no longer necessary to see me off, I don't know you well." ”
Liu Zijian said: "I'm not here to see him off, but to go with the cold snow girl and go to the place where the cold snow girl is going." ”
Han Xue was stunned and said, "Do you know where I'm going?"
Liu Zijian said: "I don't know. ”
Han Xue shook her head, turned around to leave, and said at the same time: "You better go back, I'm not going to a fun place, maybe I'll die!"
Han Xue thought that a boy like him would retreat if he was slightly frightened, but he didn't expect Liu Zijian to say categorically: "Because of this, I can't let Miss Hanxue go alone!"
The cold snow shook slightly. Han Xue has never looked at him directly, and today is the first time, and I don't think he looks like a cynical boy.
But Han Xue still advised: "I said, the place I am going to is very dangerous, and it is very likely that there will be no return! If you don't cherish your own life and don't say it, what will your family, especially your parents, think if they know the truth!"
Liu Zijian said: "I have already resigned from them. ”
Han Xue said: "That's not what I meant...... Forget it, whatever you want!" Han Xue wanted to explain, but felt that it was too troublesome, anyway, I was afraid that Liu Zijian would not go back.
Hearing Han Xue say this, Liu Zijian was as happy as if he had received an exemption order, and said excitedly: "Thank you Han Xue girl for making it happen!"
Han Xue said: "But my ugly words are ahead, if you encounter any danger, I don't have the extra ability to save you!"
Liu Zijian said: "I will definitely not cause trouble to the cold snow girl! Then the cold snow girl, please get on the horse, I specially got the two fast horses, I think the cold snow girl will use it." ”
This Liu Zijian is also a careful person, and he can even think of this. Hanxue is in a hurry now, and with this fast horse can save a lot of leg effort.
Just two days after the two set off, Haruka and Xiaoling also arrived in Yangzhou. As soon as the two entered the city, they saw the wanted warrants of Han Xue and Zi Yan, and of course, the black-clothed thief.
Xiaoling said: "Sister Chunxiang, why are there portraits of Sister Hanxue and Sister Ziyan posted everywhere here, will they have been arrested by the government?"
Chunxiang said: "Silly girl, if you are caught, how can you post these portraits." ”
Xiao Ling said: "What kind of government will arrest them?"
Chunxiang said: "It must have something to do with the black-clothed thief!"
Xiao Ling said again: "Do you say that the black-clothed thief is the little young master?"
Chunxiang said: "Definitely not!"
Xiao Ling said: "Why are you so sure?"
Haruka said: "By feeling." ”
Xiao Ling said: "Then why can't I feel it!"
Chunxiang smiled: "That's because your skills are not enough!"
Xiao Ling said: "Can this kind of thing be done by skill?"
Chunxiang said: "Of course, if you have high skills, you can do a lot of things that you can't do now, so as long as you practice hard in the future, you can also do it." ”
Chunxiang wanted to take this opportunity to induce Xiao Ling to practice hard in the future, but Xiao Ling didn't appreciate it, and thought about it: "Then forget it, just for this ability, you have to practice desperately, it's really not worth it!"
Haruka was speechless.
After a while, Xiao Ling said again: "This Yangzhou City is so big, where can we go to find the two sisters! I'm hungry after walking for a long time, let's go eat first!"
Chunxiang said: "You, you know how to eat!"
Xiao Ling said that he was not convinced.
Haruka smiled, "Okay, let's go eat!"
Suzu was immediately happy again.
At that moment, a voice came from behind them: "Please stay, two of you!"
When the two looked back, there was indeed a young man looking at them straightly.
Haruka said to the young man, "Are you calling us?"
The young man said: "Yes, the two of you are Sister Chunxiang and Xiaoling...... "The boy originally wanted to call Xiaoling 'sister', but seeing that Xiaoling was still a yellow-haired girl, this 'sister' was obviously a little hesitant to call it.
Xiao Ling naturally heard it, so she looked very unhappy, so she said to the young man unceremoniously: "Hey, where are you from, how can you recognize us?"
The young man looked a little nervous, and said: "Actually, I don't know the two sisters either, it was Sister Zi Yan who told me the appearance of the two sisters, and just now I heard the two sisters say Sister Zi Yan, so I am sure that it is!"
Xiao Ling didn't relent: "You kid actually dare to eavesdrop on our conversation!"
The young man immediately panicked and said, "I didn't mean to eavesdrop......"
Chunxiang saw that the young man was scared like that by Xiao Ling, so she hurriedly came out and said, "Okay, girl, don't scare him." Then he said to the young man, "You just said that Zi Yan called you?"
The young man said, "Actually, our master called me here." ”
Xiao Ling said angrily: "Who is your master?"
The young man replied very seriously: "Our master's surname is Zhong, and the two sisters may not know each other, but our master is very familiar with the young owner." It was Sister Ziyan who asked the master to send us to the four city gates to wait for the two sisters, and once I saw the two sisters, I took them to the master, I have been waiting here for two days, and my name is Xiaozhi. ”
Xiao Ling frowned and complained, "What nonsense! I didn't ask your name!"
Chunxiang smiled: "Well, I know the way, then please take us to meet your master." ”
Xiao Zhi hurriedly responded: "Okay, I'll take you there." "It's like I'm afraid that Xiaoling will entangle with him again, and I want to distract her.
But Xiao Ling is so easy to get rid of, and said as he walked: "Boy 'Zhi', do you have anything to eat? I'm hungry, and everything I was going to eat just now was disturbed by you!"
Xiao Zhi smiled bitterly: "Yes, the master has everything there, and Sister Xiao Ling can just tell someone to do whatever she wants to eat." ”
Xiao Ling said: "If you dare to lie to me, you look good!"
Ash hurriedly said, "Ash, how dare you." ”
Along the way, Xiaoling kept finding various reasons to challenge Ash, and Ash didn't annoy her, and answered seriously every time. Chunxiang watched from the sidelines, but thought the two of them were quite interesting, so they let them toss. In the end, Xiao Ling really felt that it was not interesting, so she was willing to give up. Ash also seemed to breathe a sigh of relief at this time.
I don't know how many times Xiao Ling chirped and complained, and the three of them finally came to the door of Zhong's house. As soon as I opened the door, I saw that Master Zhong and Zi Yan were already inside.
As soon as Zi Yan saw Chunxiang, the corners of her eyes were hot, and she said with some grievances: "Sister Chunxiang, you are finally here!"
As soon as Haruka saw her situation, she knew that there must have been a lot of things going on here, so she comforted: "Okay, it's okay now! ”
Zi Yan nodded.
Master Zhong said: "Let's go into the house first, this is not a place to talk." ”
Chunxiang said: "This must be Master Zhong, right? I'm really sorry, our matter has made Master Zhong pay a lot of attention, right?"
Master Zhong said: "Look at what the girl said, how can I worry about trivial matters, you young owner is my great benefactor! Okay, there is no need to say polite words, let's go to the house first!"
Haruka said, "Okay, then I'm going to bother you again." ”
After that, Zi Yan told Chunxiang all the details of the matter. After hearing this, Chunxiang said to Zi Yan, "How is your injury now?"
Zi Yan said: "I'm fine, let's hurry up and chase Sister Hanxue!"
Chunxiang said: "You can't be reckless, look at your complexion is still so bad! You still take care of your injuries, besides, the place we are going to is likely to be extremely dangerous, and you can't do it if you don't have enough spirit!"
Zi Yan said gloomily: "Sister Han Xue also said the same thing when she left. I'm afraid that if it drags on for a long time, Sister Hanxue will have some accidents.
Chunxiang said: "Don't worry, Hanxue has always been very measured, she will be fine!"
After that, Haruka also told them what they had experienced, and let everyone discuss it together. Although there are so many clues now, it is still difficult to have a reasonable explanation for the whole thing, especially the reason for Long Shaotian's disappearance.
