Because it was on a forest path, the carriage could not pass, so they had to walk the rest of the way on foot.

The sky turned white, and the sun gradually rose, emitting a warm orange light. It shines warmly on people.

But the dew was deeper, and the warm sun in the morning was not enough to penetrate the dew on the ground. As they walked on the road, Qingyun's skirt was half wet.

Now they have reached the official road, but there is no village or town in sight, so they cannot rest.

Shen Lingfei gasped and looked up at the horizon, "Are we going to keep walking like this?". His physical strength was a little too much.

Qingyun coughed twice and tightened her cloak. "There is no other way. We can only wait for the passers-by to see if they can give us a ride."

Qing Xiao took the handkerchief and stroked the dewdrops on Qingyun's hair. He glanced at the endless road ahead, and then at the exhausted two people.

"Let's take a rest first and leave later."

"Okay", Shen Lingfei sat on the spot, not caring about whether it was dirty or not.

Qing Xiao found a big stone, wiped it clean and asked Qingyun to sit down. Qingyun breathed a sigh of relief and could finally rest for a while. Her legs were almost broken.

While beating his legs, he observed on the road. See if there are any passing carriages.

It's just that it's too early now, and the city gate hasn't even been opened yet. No one but them.

Half an hour later, they set off again. A thin layer of sweat broke out on Qingyun's forehead. But because there were so many water droplets in the air, it was hard to tell which ones were sweat and which ones were dewdrops.

There was a soft sound and Qingxiao's ears moved. Stopped, turned and looked back.

Qingyun stopped and heard the sound in the quiet environment.

Shen Lingfei was puzzled and asked: "Why did you stop? Do you want to rest?".

"A carriage is coming," Qing Xiao said.

"Great, we can let him give us a ride," Shen Lingfei said in surprise.

But Qingyun and Qingxiao didn't look happy at all. It is too early now and the city gate is not open. It's not normal for it to appear at this time.

Or leave the city illegally. Or, great power. No matter which reason, it is not a good thing for them.

The carriage gradually appeared, and the sound of bones gradually became clearer. Before Qing Xiao and Qing Yun had time to stop them, Shen Lingfei had already begun to wave to stop the carriage.

Then, the three of them successfully got into the carriage and were tied together.

Qingyun and Qingxiao stared at Shen Lingfei resentfully. Shen Lingfei lowered his head, pursed his lips, and looked unconvinced.

"I didn't know they were bandits."

Qing Xiao sighed, "Forget it, just think they gave us a ride. We just don't need to look for them anymore."

"Yes, it's much better than walking."

Qingyun sat down with peace of mind, found a comfortable position, and closed her eyes.

Shen Lingfei was dumbfounded. "Are we going to sleep like this?"

"What else? I'll find you another quilt?" Qing Xiao also found a place, closer to the car door.

"Take some sleep now. There is still a tough battle to fight when we get to Silver Moon City." After saying that, he closed his eyes.

Shen Lingfei smacked her lips twice, moved between Qing Xiao and Qing Yun, and fell asleep leaning against Qing Xiao.

The sun slowly rose and hung in the middle, drying the dew on the ground.

A carriage slowly arrived at the gate of Silver Moon City. Qing Xiao and Qing Yun opened their eyes when the carriage stopped.

The carriage was driven by two strong men. He was stopped by the soldiers guarding the gate.

"What are you doing? What's in the carriage?" the soldier asked.

One of the strong men took out a bulging money bag and threw it into the soldier's hands. Then he took out a token and displayed it in an inconspicuous place.

The soldier weighed it and took it into his arms. He glanced at the token and looked both ways.

"Search and then go over."

One of the big men clicked his tongue impatiently, "It's really troublesome, go ahead."

After the soldier arrived at the carriage, he opened the curtain and saw the three people lying inside. But he didn't say anything and quickly lowered the car curtain.

"Okay, we can get over it."

The other soldiers gave way and the carriage entered Silvermoon City.

Qingyun and Qingxiao looked at each other and started to move in tacit agreement.

Because of Qing Xiao's movement, Shen Lingfei had no support and his head suddenly fell down. When it was about to hit the carriage, Qing Xiao caught it with his feet.

Shen Lingfei woke up completely and looked at the two of them in confusion. Just as she was about to speak, Qingyun stared back.

Qingyun approached Shen Lingfei, and Shen Lingfei backed away in fear. Qing Xiao held him down with his body to prevent him from moving again.

Qingyun's hands groped around his body. Qingyun's movements made him itch all over. I wanted to laugh, but I couldn't make a sound, so I could only hold it in. He suppressed his face and turned red.

Qingyun finally touched the dagger on his waist. He took the dagger, cut his own rope first, and breathed a slight sigh of relief. Then he cut the ropes on Qing Xiao and Shen Lingfei's hands.

Shen Lingfei looked aggrieved. Qingyun patted him and returned the dagger to him.

Qingyun quietly opened the car curtain and observed the street outside. He turned back and nodded towards the two of them.

There are many people on the street, and the vendors are shouting vigorously. A carriage passed by without attracting any attention.

Until the carriage suddenly exploded, and three figures jumped out and flew away in three different directions. The people around him were so frightened that they gave way.

The two strong men were stunned by this. I wanted to chase him, but two people couldn't chase him back. One of them had black lines on his face. Now, they had attracted the attention of the people in the city and were surrounded by soldiers.

The three of them went in different directions. After making sure that no one was chasing them, Qingyun stopped.

She stood on the roof of a building and looked at the people coming and going below. It must be a lively place.

Qingyun ducked down. This was a restaurant. I carefully put on my veil and walked in.

The restaurant was very lively, and there were girls playing ditty on the stage. She randomly found a seat where there were many people and sat down.

The waiter stepped forward very discerningly and asked, "What do you want, Miss?".

"A pot of scented tea and a plate of snacks."

"okay".

Qingyun pricked up her ears and listened to the chatter of others.

"Did you know that a carriage exploded in the south of the city?" one of them said.

A man just sat down and took a sip of tea and said, "I know, I just came over there."

"What's going on? How could a perfectly good carriage explode?" His words aroused the curiosity of others.

"They were taken away by people from the prefect. The two men driving the car were burly men. They were not good people at first glance."

"Speaking of the prefect, did you know that the prefect is welcoming guests today?".

"Who doesn't know? The prefect even repainted the ground."

"It's such an exaggeration. How can anyone be more powerful than Prince Lu?"

"No one has arrived yet, so who knows."
