What Ning Xiaokun and Ning Xiaoqian sisters didn't expect was that they each searched for nearly ten miles along the shore before Ning Xiaokun found a very small wooden boat. Because the wooden boat was dragged to the shore and surrounded by river ice, when Ning Xiaokun struggled to break the river ice with his oars, and was about to board the boat and row into the river, he was stopped by Ning Xiaoqian, who came in time with nothing.

"Sister, wait. ”

Since the fire in Sihui County on the other side had long disappeared at this time, and the river was once again in darkness, Ning Xiaoqian said worriedly:

"If we go down to the river so rashly, there is a chance that we will repeat the mistakes of the past, and even if we find Wu Zheng and Her Royal Highness the Princess at that time, we will not be able to do anything. ”

Ning Xiaokun, who was reminded, suddenly ran out of ideas.

"Then what should Sister Yi say?"

"I've thought about it just now, and thirty miles west of this is Sambo County in Gyeonggi Province. The younger sister went to move the rescuers, and the elder sister stayed behind to continue looking for Wu Zheng and Her Royal Highness the princess along the coast. ”

"Where's the time?"

"At present, there is only one way to save them, if you rely on the two of us alone, if you want a boat without a boat, if you want lights without lights, what can you rely on to find Wu Zheng, and what can you rely on to help them?"

"But ......?"

"Xiao Kun, don't do it, the more you delay, the more dangerous Wu Zheng will be. ”

Knowing that her sister was right, Ning Xiaokun stopped fighting.

"What if the county government of Sanbao County doesn't believe me?"

"It is impossible for them not to receive a letter from Yin Lei Wanli, the governor of Linshan Prefecture. At the same time, my sister wanted to tell Sanbao Zhixian to send someone to Jingshi as soon as possible to report what happened in Sihui County tonight. ”

"Got it, sister, be careful. ”

With that, Ning Xiaokun turned around and ran towards the thick night in the west.

And after Ning Xiaoqian waited for Ning Xiaokun to go away, she boarded the boat alone, paddled with both hands, and carefully rowed downstream along the river bank, the general direction where Wu Zheng disappeared.

When Ning Xiaoqian, who was rocking the boat, was blocked by a thin layer of ice on the river, the eastern sky had also revealed a trace of fish belly white. I didn't see Wu Zheng and Gu Luan, only a broken ice line. Since she didn't see a trace left by Wu Zheng on the ice, Ning Xiaoqian's heart suddenly became nervous.

Ning Xiaoqian, who said nothing and didn't want to believe that Wu Zheng would fall into the river and die, followed Wu Zheng's example at night and abandoned the boat to board the frozen river. didn't have Wu Zheng's weight, not to mention that Wu Zheng was still holding the princess Gu Luan in his arms, so he held the oars in his hands to prevent him from falling into the river in case the ice broke and fell into the river, so he could use the oars in his hands to shoulder the ice on both sides to ensure that his body would not burrow under the ice Ning Xiaoqian, cautiously walked slowly downstream.

Because the surface of the Yellow River made four big bends here in succession, when Ning Xiaoqian turned a bay, she suddenly saw a broken piece of ice on the ice, and obviously saw a broken point every six or seven steps, and suddenly felt a surprise in her heart.

Obviously, Wu Zheng and Princess Gu Luan fell into the river for some reason, entered the ice, and did not jump out of the ice again until here, and ...... from this.

When Ning Xiaoqian identified the direction, she was inevitably surprised.

"Why did Wu Zheng go back to the other side again?"

How did she know that Wu Zheng, who was out of the whirlpool suction and drilled out of the ice at that time, only wanted to land as soon as possible to reach safety, but completely ignored it and lost his way.

Ning Xiaoqian, who followed the trail to the shore, soon saw the clothes thrown on the ground. took a closer look, only the little clothes worn by Princess Gu Luan and Wu Zheng's shirt. He didn't pay any attention to it, and continued to follow the footprints on the ground and other tracks, and even after an hour, he stood under the east gate of the Sihui City.

At this time, Ning Xiaoqian already had a seemingly reasonable answer in her heart.

"With Princess Caifeng's delicate body, once she falls into the icy and biting river, where can she bear it. In other words, Wu Zheng's purpose in venturing back to Siwei City should be to save the frozen princess Gu Luan. ”

If the color was bright today, the city gate was immediately opened, and Ning Xiaoqian quickly walked to the city in the crowd. The first choice is the clinic of Xie Zhen, the six-fingered divine doctor in Shigu Lane, with Ning Xiaoqian's estimation, in order to save Princess Caifeng, Wu Zheng is most likely to come here.

It's just that when she came to the front of the clinic, she saw that the door was open, and there were many catchers and servants coming in and out, Ning Xiaoqian did not take the initiative to go up, but quietly inquired about the crowd of onlookers.

It turned out that there was a homicide in the clinic last night, and not only was the six-fingered miracle doctor killed, but dozens of members of his family, both young and old, regardless of the master and slave, were all spared. What's more, he killed two young patients who came to the clinic.

"Who did that?"

"Who else could it be, it must have been the bandits who washed the State Guest House last night. ”

Hearing this, Ning Xiaoqian quietly withdrew from the crowd and walked towards the guest house.

When Ning Xiaoqian stood in front of the former State Guest House, the scene in front of her was too beyond her imagination.

Where is there still the shadow of the State Guest House, overnight, the entire State Guest House was razed to the ground.

Seeing those ruins and broken walls, as well as crossbow arrows, swords and other blades scattered on the ground, Ning Xiaoqian couldn't help but feel a little afraid in her heart.

It is not difficult to see that those people really want to finish their work. First he guarded the surroundings of the guest house with crossbow arrows, and then began to set fires. Anyone who escapes from it will surely be shot under the rain of arrows. For Ning Xiaoqian, who has been practicing martial arts since childhood, she can recognize the power of the crossbow arrows on the ground at a glance. If it was Wu Zheng who was not dragged down, he might be able to get out of the way. However, once you bring Princess Caifeng, you will not be spared. As for himself and Ning Xiaokun, there will be no possibility of escape.

While secretly grateful to Mo Zi, the Ever-Changing Sky Fox, she was also wondering, where did she get the news? Why did she keep behind her group? Although for the latter question, Ning Xiaoqian could guess that it should be related to Wu Zheng, but she couldn't guess what it was.

The top priority, Ning Xiaoqian wants to find the whereabouts of Wu Zheng and Princess Caifeng, where to find it?

When she saw the officials standing guard around the flattened guest house, Ning Xiaoqian raised her feet and walked in the direction of the county office.

thought to himself, even if Wu Zheng was not in the county office, he must be somewhere in the county. Then it should be much better for the county government to come forward to look for it than to go around blindly like this.

Because Ning Xiaoqian only knew the general direction of the county government, or after entering the city yesterday evening, when the county magistrate brought people to the State Guest House to pay homage to Princess Caifeng, he only knew about it. But when Ning Xiaoqian walked over in the direction she remembered, she didn't see the shadow of the county office, but saw a pile of ruins again. A pile of ruins similar to the State Guest House, with only ruins, charred beams, and rubble scattered all over the ground.

"Why did those people attack together with the county government?"

This is the first question that Ning Xiaoqian thought of after seeing the scene in front of her. (To be continued.) )
