"Don't... don't go..."

I don't know how long he slept, but Han Tiexin was awakened by Xiao Fengling's dream talk. When he opened his eyes, it was still pitch black outside. He pushed Xiao Fengling whose back was facing him, and called softly: "Master?"

Xiao Fengling was not pushed awake, she seemed to be in a deep dream, murmured indistinctly from her throat, Han Tiexin couldn't hear what he said, but could feel a strong sense of reluctance.

"Xiao Fengling, wake up." Han Tiexin turned over his body, only to find that Xiao Fengling's forehead was covered with bead-sized beads of sweat, his brows were tightly furrowed, the corners of his eyes were shining, and his lips were pursed white.Han Tiexin guessed that what he had must have been a nightmare.

Since it's a nightmare, it's better to wake up early.Han Tiexin increased the strength in his hand, and shouted while pushing: "Xiao Fengling, wake up! Wake up!"

"Uh... um..." As Xiao Fengling's eyes opened, a drop of tears that was in the corner of his eyes slipped down quietly and fell on the pillow, before it had time to splash a little bit of water, it fainted and disappeared.

"Did you have a nightmare?" Han Tiexin asked softly, looking at the confusion and fragility in his eyes that had no time to hide.

"Nightmare..." Xiao Fengling said in a daze, thinking of the little bloody figure in the dream just now, who obviously couldn't even walk, could only crawl forward little by little, but Xiao Fengling couldn't catch up to him no matter what, Didn't even see his face.

"Yeah, I heard you talking in your sleep just now, don't leave..." Han Tiexin said, "What did you dream about?"

Xiao Fengling's eyes had returned to the clear and stern eyes of the past, and she calmly pushed away Han Tiexin's hand on her forehead, and said lightly: "I did have a nightmare just now, sorry to bother you, we have to continue on our way tomorrow ,sleep early."

Seeing that Xiao Fengling continued to lie down with his back facing him, Han Tiexin obviously didn't want to tell himself what he dreamed about, so he didn't ask any more questions, but he had already vaguely guessed something in his heart.

"Master." Han Tiexin said after lying down, looking at Xiao Fengling's back, "Don't think about anything, go to bed early, we have to hurry tomorrow morning."

Xiao Fengling said without turning her head: "I told you these words, so I know it myself."

Han Tiexin quietly unwrapped a small sachet that was placed next to him, took out a dried reddish-brown flower from it, put it in the palm of his hand and crushed it with his fingers, followed by a burst of faint fragrance in the air Spread out, and soon, Xiao Fengling's breathing slowed down.

A few days later, Haitang got up early to pack his things. He knew that Xiao Fengling would soon have a cleanliness obsession and was unwilling to use the things in the inn, so he took the bowls and chopsticks he brought with him, filled breakfast and sent it to Xiao Fengling's room. Seeing that he and Han Tiexin had just got up, Both had dark circles under their eyes, and asked strangely: "What's wrong with you two? You look like you haven't woken up. Master, did he disturb you from sleeping because of his snoring at night?"

Han Tiexin felt very aggrieved after hearing this, thinking that it was Xiao Fengling who woke me up by talking in his sleep, but now he said that I disturbed him. The lady is wrong anyway.But of course he didn't know the same as Haitang, a little girl, just smiled a little awkwardly, sat at the table and picked up the bowls and chopsticks to eat.

Xiao Fengling straightened her clothes, sat next to Han Tiexin, picked up the bowl and chopsticks and was about to eat, suddenly stopped, and said lightly: "He didn't snore." It was like repaying Han Tiexin's innocence.

Only then did Han Tiexin feel a little more balanced: "At least you still have a bit of conscience."

After another two days of bumping on the bumpy road, the three of them arrived at Taohua Village and found an inn. As soon as they stepped into the inn, they heard a few big men sitting at a table near the door discussing something in full swing.

Xiao Fengling was dissatisfied with their yelling like donkeys, squinting her eyes, she saw a total of five people at the table, all of them were tall and tall, with knives around their waists, and they looked like martial arts practitioners.

Xiao Fengling looked around the first floor of the inn, and found that although the store is not big, there are not many customers, and judging by the clothes of those people, almost all of them are martial arts people.

Xiao Fengling wondered inwardly, when did this remote Peach Blossom Village become a gathering place for martial arts people, could it be... Something happened here too?

"I'm talking about Old Sun, are you telling the truth? Did you see it with your own eyes?" The big man with his back to Xiao Fengling raised his hand and patted the stubble-faced man beside him, asking doubtfully.

"I can still lie to you. Although I didn't see it with my own eyes, I have a distant relative who works in Zhujian Villa. When the owner Ling Yun was stabbed, he was by the side. He saw that the person who injured him was wearing white clothes and his hands There is also a sharp sword without a scabbard in it." The person called Old Sun said with certainty.

"Haha~~ Don't listen to him bragging!" The person on the right of the old grandson said with a smile, "When he was a teenager, all his family members died. Where did the distant relatives come from? I think this kid is probably bragging! "

Seeing that someone had punctured him, Old Sun blushed, smiled mischievously, and then scratched his hair and said confidently: "I'm not bragging. Everyone in the Jianghu knows that people in white clothes and holding swords without scabbards. Only Xiao Fengling, the leader of the Qingping Sect, is the only one, and besides, he has caused troubles in the Jianghu recently and killed many decent heroes, I think the assassination of Ling Daxia this time is probably due to his actions."

"What nonsense are you talking about?!" Haitang yelled angrily when she saw that they were accusing Xiao Fengling of the crime again.

The five of them were startled, looked around and saw that Haitang was a teenage girl, and snorted coldly, "Where did you come from, such a wild girl, who doesn't understand the rules."

"Rules?" Haitang's laughter became colder, "I only abide by my master's rules, whichever onion or garlic you are, are you worthy of letting my aunt and grandma obey the rules?!"

"How dare this wild girl look down on us?" Old Sun said angrily, picking up the big knife beside his hand, "Let grandpa teach you how to be good today!"

Haitang was about to draw his sword, Xiao Fengling got up from his seat and walked out, saying softly: "Don't waste time with these people, let's go."
