It was not unexpected, when Wu Zheng stood under the stone archway in front of Woyun Temple, he soon saw three petite figures in the distance with their backs to the rising sun.

almost rushed over, and immediately hugged Tie Ning, who was walking in front of Xiaomei and Xiaolan, into his arms.

"It's all my fault, and I've made my sister suffer again. ”

"How can I blame you for this?"

Tie Ning also subconsciously hugged Wu Zheng's neck because of the excitement of rebirth after the catastrophe. Looking at the front of him affectionately, the face that was more handsome and resolute under the morning sun comforted Wu Zheng's guilt and self-blame softly.

"Besides, although we fell into the hands of Wu Gan this time, we didn't suffer any grievances. ”

Wu Zheng only reacted at this time.

"Where did Wu Gan go, how could he let you go for no reason?"

Hearing Wu Zheng's question, Tie Ning obviously showed a trace of hesitation on his face, but he still spoke:

"After Wu Gan kidnapped us to the western outskirts of the capital last night, he stopped in the wilderness. Until before dawn, for some reason, he suddenly threw down a sentence and walked away. ”

"What?"

"Wu Zheng is in Woyun Temple. ”

Although these words inevitably sound a little bizarre, it is impossible for Wu Zheng to suspect Tie Ning. It's just that he couldn't figure it out, what did Wu Gan encounter, or what did he think of, so he suddenly gave up and continued to hold Tie Ning and the three of them hostage?

It's not that he didn't notice the surprised looks on Xiaomei and Xiaolan's faces behind Tie Ning, Wu Zheng didn't think much about it.

"Didn't Wu Gan tell you where you were going?"

"I only said that I entered Beijing, but I didn't say the detailed address. ”

Obviously, on the carriage in front of the ancient temple, the scribbled note was pasted by Wu Gan and Tie Ning on their backs.

"If you're tired, let's go to the temple to rest first. ”

"Not tired, I don't like temples. ”

No, if this is the case, on the night of the incident, when he stayed in the deserted temple at night, why didn't Tie Ning show it at all? Otherwise, it would not have left Wu Gan with a chance.

Wu Zheng knew that it was more than 20 miles from the capital to Woyun Temple, and the three of Tie Ning must have come to Woyun Temple overnight after Wu Gan left.

I don't know if it's because Tie Ning's safe return is too exciting for Wu Zheng, or because he was deaf and dumb overnight, and because he learned too much amazing news from the mouth of Master Huatou Tuo Xingyun in the Western Regions, Wu Zheng, who is usually quite careful, ignored a problem at this time, that is, Tie Ning must know how to go to Woyun Temple in advance before he can travel overnight.

On the way back to Beijing, it was not so much Wu Zheng holding Tie Ning as carrying her.

Xiaomei and Xiaolan also walked out of a sweat, and after finally entering the city and staying in a small inn, the three of them had to rest for nearly two hours before they had the strength to freshen up.

It was expected to enter Beijing in half a month, but because of Wu Gan's intervention, it was four or five days ahead of schedule. You don't need to ask to know that Wu Gan held Tie Ning hostage and the three of them, and they must have traveled day and night along the way, otherwise it would be impossible to come to the capital only in the middle of the night behind Wu Zheng.

Fortunately, under the influence of Wu Zheng, Tie Ning was also used to letting Xiaomei carry important things with him at all times, so all the necessary items for the exam in Beijing, including silver, were not lost. It's just a pity that I just bought a carriage for about ten days, and those brand-new bedding left in the ancient temple, including the change of clothes for four people.

Naturally, Wu Zheng would also tell Tie Ning about the scene of meeting Master Huatou Tuo Xingyun in the Western Regions in Woyun Temple, and the scene of being deaf and dumb.

For example, Sinan Che, such as the nursery rhymes about Sinan Che, such as the hurried meeting of parents and Master Xingyun in Woyun Temple eighteen years ago, and so on.

Especially when talking about the four major martial arts families of "Tiezhang Cui Yun", Wu Zheng specially asked Tie Ning:

"Has my sister heard of these four families?"

"I heard about it from my sister. ”

Whenever he mentions the iron thread mother who was humiliated to death by Liu Shiqing, Tie Ning will inevitably be sad, so Wu Zheng is not good at asking anymore. However, Tie Ning took the initiative to add, which was not much different from what Master Xingyun said.

"Among the four major families, the Tie family, which ranks first, is the most mysterious, and there are very few disciples walking around in the rivers and lakes. ”

Saying this, it blocked Wu Zheng's next question.

Of course, Wu Zheng was secretly speculating about why Wu Gan would give up inexplicably and continue to hold Tie Ning hostage. It's just that no matter how you think about it, you can't find a reason that makes sense.

Suppose Wu Gan made an appointment with Tian Deaf and Dumb in advance, where and when to meet, but when the agreed time was reached, Tian Deaf and Dumb did not appear at the agreed place, so Wu Gan, who knew that he was not Wu Zheng's opponent, had no choice but to give up and continue to hold Tie Ning hostage. This speculation, while plausible, does not stand up to scrutiny.

After all, it is not easy for Wu Zheng to find Wu Gan, who is holding Tie Ning hostage, especially since Wu Gan is also proficient in tracking techniques, and his ability to naturally counter-track is not beyond the reach of ordinary people. There is no need to give up the original intention of traveling hundreds of miles day and night in such a hurry, wanting to blackmail Wu Zheng.

Besides, even if he knew that Wu Zheng would rush to Woyun Temple in advance, how could Wu Gan, who was deaf and dumb in the sky, suddenly give up without entering the temple to explore? Wu Gan should not have thought that even if he was deaf and dumb, he was not Wu Zheng's opponent.

"Today is the second year of junior high school, and there is still half a month to go, do you want my brother to review his schoolwork?"

"Well, it's good to take a look. ”

In fact, for Wu Zheng, there was no need to review, but he found that Tie Ning seemed to want to go on his official career very much, and Tie Ning and Xiaomei Xiaolan also needed to stay in the inn to rest more, so they agreed casually.

Since the palace test is only held once every three years, almost all the people in the world are gathered in the capital, and even the most remote inns are almost full in February. For example, the Fulinmen Inn where Wu Zheng and his family live, because it is in the west of the city, is relatively remote, and there are not many guests in the past, but now it is already overcrowded.

Not to mention Tie Ning and Xiaomei Xiaolan, it is the first time that Wu Zheng has seen so many people of all kinds. There are those who are similar in age to Wu Zheng, there are those with gray beards, and the most are middle-aged people in their thirties and forties. Moreover, the accents come from all over the world, and there are all kinds of intonations.

However, living in such a humble inn, Wu Zheng is the only one with a flower girl.

Naturally, Wu Zheng and Tie Ning's master and servant became the focus of attention and discussion among the people in the inn.

Of course, there are many people who come to talk to Wu Zheng because they are greedy for a more look at the beautiful and abnormal iron condensation.

"Miss, are all men like this?"

"Of course not, haven't you seen so many people living in the inn, and only a few of them have come here for some reason?"

"Hmph, those who didn't come might be even dirtier than those who came. ”

Xiaolan's angry words made Tie Ning laugh.

"What does it matter to us that they look at them and think of them?"

"But the look in their eyes always made me feel uncomfortable. ”

"It's like a man's back. ”

"Yo, Xiaomei will also drag the text, and I will give you a name next year, and I will go to the next test. ”

"Why is Miss in such a good mood today?"

"Is there one?"

"Yes. ”

Hearing Xiaomei and Xiaolan answer in unison and in a firm tone, the smile on Tie Ning's face became even brighter.
