Chapter 55: A Word of Fate

"How long do you have to run?"

"For a long time. ”

"How long is it?"

"You have to run out of the Northern Plains, to the Northern Wei Dynasty, to the cities where there are people, to the places where you can heal your injuries......" Yi Xiao carried Xiao Buyi on his back and ran on the snowfield.

He was fast and the route was straight.

It's like a knife, calmly cutting and moving forward.

South.

Because of the heavy snowfall, occasionally the nomads in the royal court were trapped by the heavy snow, and they all set up tents.

It's a deserted area, no towns, no people.

His Royal Highness's physical strength is very good, he can hold his breath for a long time, the dragon and snake are circling, he can run for nearly ten miles, he can run a long distance with selfless respect for the turnover, qi and blood circulation, extremely fast ventilation, and can run a considerable distance.

Xiao Buyi was slightly silent, the arrow injury behind him was not serious, Zhong Er had no murderous intent, but the crossbow arrow into the bone pulled the old disease, and the large and small injuries accumulated over the past year broke out in one breath, and his body bones were a little unbearable.

A few Nine Rank Pills were entered, and the injuries were suppressed.

Yi Xiao ran out of breath, stopped slightly, exhaled a very long depression, and said meaningfully: "As long as you arrive in the city and have a place to recuperate, your injuries will heal soon." ”

On a snowy day, in this bad weather, when there is almost no rest, the pursuers of Senluo Road seem to have been left behind, but who knows if they will be caught up?

Xiao Buyi's voice was hoarse, and he said, "Out of the Northern Plains, the situation may not necessarily improve. ”

Yi Xiao snorted.

"The snow is falling too much, whether the thirty-seven cities of the Northern Wei Dynasty are all closed, I don't know ......" Xiao Buyi coughed slightly, and his face was worried: "If those cities in the north are all closed, and we have nowhere to go, the situation will be very bad." ”

The most important thing to do in the Northern Wei Dynasty was to find a city to rest and let Xiao Buyi heal.

"One more day is Qing'an City. His Royal Highness rubbed his cheeks, began to inhale, and said vaguely, "Let's take a look first." ”

......

......

Entering the Northern Wei Dynasty was much easier than expected.

The gorge of the North Pass is incomplete, and the people guarding the pass are hindered by the heavy snow, and many passes are full of loopholes.

With His Royal Highness's current cultivation, even if he carried Xiao Buyi on his back and finally sneaked in, he didn't spend the slightest effort.

A day later, Yi Xiao, who arrived near Qing'an City, found that things were indeed not good.

The gates of Qing'an City were unsurprisingly tightly closed.

The cities of the Northern Wei Dynasty were flat in all directions, completely locked down, not to mention as solid as Luoyang, but it was almost impossible to sneak in quietly.

Yi Xiao can't do it.

And so on. ”

Xiao Buyi said helplessly: "Qing'an City has locked the door, and the other cities are probably similar, we have to wait, wait for them to open the door." ”

What a desperate and desperate thing to do?

Yi Xiao didn't speak.

How long will it take for such a heavy snowfall to stop?

Wait, wait until when?

Can I afford to wait, can I afford Xiao Buyi's injury?

Yi Xiao narrowed her eyes, slowly lowered her body, picked up the heavy snow, and put her ears on the ground.

On the way south, every time he crossed, His Highness would repeat this action, in order for a pursuer to come from behind the embankment.

Xiao Buyi sat on the ground, did not move his body, in order not to disturb Yi Xiao, he had to keep absolutely quiet, his eyes looked calmly into the distance, pursed his lips slightly, his expression was indifferent and numb, he didn't know what he was thinking.

His Royal Highness raised his head suddenly.

Instead of looking behind him, his eyes were golden and he stared straight into the distance.

Xiao Buyi coughed dullly and said, "See?"

Yi Xiao muttered, "To be precise, I heard it first." ”

In the snow in the distance, there was a procession that was moving forward with great difficulty.

Like a snail moving forward.

The flag of the Ministry of Industry danced in the snow.

The squire sat in the carriage, without poking his head out, and a whole procession, braving the heavy snow, advanced quite slowly.

Guo Youzhi sat in the same carriage as Lord Shilang, his hands did not know how to be placed, and he was restrained on his knees.

He had just woken up from his drunkenness, and he hadn't reacted until now.

It's like a dream.

The female city lord really opened the city gate and let him go.

And to promote yourself to be the governor of Thunder City?

Lord Zengtai's expression didn't look like a deception, and Lord Shilang told him a lot of serious truths along the way, listen to him...... Are you on the rise now?

A Governor of Thunder City, it is nothing to put on the table, except for the one in Fengting City, the governor of the Four Kings City is uniformly awarded the second grade, and the governor of Thunder City is reduced to two ranks, that is, it is a positive fourth grade, and it is not as good as Zeng Tai's third grade.

What kind of success is this?

Zeng Tai said a lot about the great things about this female city lord.

In other words, when she was in Luoyang, she was quite valued by the above.

Said to be a femme fatale.

Guo Youzhi smiled bitterly, not understanding why the woman made Lord Shilang so afraid.

He's obviously a good-hearted person.

Zeng Tai didn't realize the tiredness of the person in front of him, and he still talked endlessly.

Guo Youzhi suddenly felt that the atmosphere in the carriage was not suitable for him, so he slowly opened the curtain of the carriage.

Outside, it's white.

What a pure world.

Zeng Tai suddenly stopped and asked cautiously, "Do you feel stuffy in the car?"

Guo Youzhi hummed softly.

He got out of the carriage, borrowed a horse, turned on it, took a sip of wine, warmed himself, and ran forward.

From the belly of the line, all the way to the front.

The snow was white, and Guo Youzhi couldn't see anything clearly in front of him.

He just wanted to rush to the North Pass as soon as possible and repair the Guanxia, and he didn't think about anything else.

Only now he breathed a sigh of relief.

The atmosphere in the carriage was so overwhelming that I couldn't breathe.

The team of the Ministry of Industry to carry out the task was very long, and there were nearly 100 workers who were transferred from all over the place to repair the gorge, and they were all at the front of the team.

The team is solid, but not dispersed.

Fortunately, under the heavy snow, no one could move faster, otherwise those inspectors of the Ministry of Labor would be idle, and they would have to carry whips and mean to ask those coolie workers to speed up.

Guo Youzhi rubbed his hands and saw two figures next to the snow.

On such a snowy day, there are still people going out?

A young man in black with clear eyebrows and a Confucian man in coarse linen clothes on his back walked towards him.

Guo Youzhi slowed down his horse.

The boy looked at himself with a smile, and the smile made people feel like a spring breeze.

Guo Youzhi noticed that his black robe was not even stained with snow, but the Confucian behind him was stained with blood.

It should be those rivers and lakes, right?

On a snowy day, there is still life and death.

Guo Youzhi sighed and said softly: "Seeing that you look so young, but the person behind you fell into this kind of injury, it must be that you are young and fighting to win, and you can't bear to breathe, so you are injured like this." ”

His Highness blinked, not nodding or shaking his head.

"In a hurry to find a place to heal?"

Yi Xiao nodded thoughtfully.

Guo Youzhi turned his head and pointed in the direction of Thunder City, and said with a look on his face: "Thunder City has opened its gate today, hurry up and go in, it may be closed later." ”

It turns out that this black-robed young man is still a mute?

Guo Youzhi took off the wine jug on his waist, dismounted and tied it around the waist of the young man, lowered his eyebrows and said: "The rivers and lakes are not easy to mix, if possible, it is better to read more books, there is no shortage of soldiers in the Northern Wei Dynasty to rush into battle to kill the enemy, and there is a shortage of strategists to govern the country and level the world." ”

Wailang coughed slightly, and said regretfully: "It's a pity that you are dumb." ”

Yi Xiao, who had not spoken, was slightly stunned.

Guo Youzhi took a deep breath and caught a glimpse of the team from his engineering department passing by, handing the reins of the horse to Yi Xiao.

"This horse is for you, and Thunder City will really close later. He rubbed his numb face, smiled, and said, "I still have horses." ”

Guo Youzhi didn't know why he was helping a young man he had never met.

It was only from the first time he saw the man that he felt like a clear stream flowing through his heart.

Yi Xiao took the reins of the horse, handed the reins back with a smile, and personally stuffed them into Guo Youzhi's hands, and at the same time, a stream of yuan force was entered, circling in the body of the outsider, clearing the cold for him and eliminating hidden diseases.

Guo Youzhi looked at the black-robed young man in a daze.

He took a step back with the Confucian on his back, his feet slightly accumulating.

In an instant, there was a deliberately controlled, thin sound in the snow.

Snorted.

The black-robed boy was nowhere to be seen.

In addition to the reins in Guo Youzhi's hand, who was stunned on the spot, there were also several more elixirs that were hard to find.

......

......

Liu Rushi himself stood at the head of the city.

She didn't drink heavily, she didn't get drunk, she didn't close the door to clean up.

She was thinking, is there such a thing as fate in this world?

"I opened the gates for one day, and only for one day. The woman who was now the lord of Liuda City muttered: "If you happen to catch up, then it is your fate, it has nothing to do with me, you have this blessing in your life." ”

It's been a long wait.

Most of the day passed, and the three men and horses had already left the city.

It's been a long time.

Some opportunistic merchants who wanted to try their luck in the northern plains also came out of the Thunder City Gate.

Not a single person entered the city.

Liu Rushi smiled: "That's it." ”

Missed.

She said calmly, "Close the gates." ”

Turn around.

In the afterglow, he suddenly caught a glimpse of a black figure.

rushed out of the white snow, too conspicuous.

The few soldiers in the City Lord's Mansion were stunned, not knowing how to choose.

The heavy door lifted by the suspension cable has already shown signs of loosening.

It's closing.

The appearance of this suspicious figure made the City Lord's Mansion feel like a great enemy, and a heavy crossbow was immediately built up and silently wound.

Before leaving, Liu Rushi whispered, "It's my friends, let them in." ”

So the heavy gate of Thunder City stagnated, and the city gate was half-hanging.

Yi Xiao, who rushed forward with Xiao Buyi on his back, raised his head and didn't see the figure in the city.

He heard that she had gone to Thunder City to become the lord of the city.

Thunder City is the city in front of you.

On a snowy day, there is no lock, and the city gates are wide open.

She opened the gates.

Yi Xiao originally thought that Thunder City opened the city gate to let the people of the Ministry of Industry go.

And when he slowed down.

The heavy door was still closed, waiting for him to enter.

It's a pity.

Until the end, until Yi Xiao entered Thunder City.

The heavy door immediately closed and closed.

Yi Xiao didn't see the Liu Da Oiran who Tianshulou was talking to him.

The past is no longer the same.

It turned out to be just a coincidence.
