The uninhabited sheep intestines path is silent, with occasional gusts of wind blowing, and the snow on the treetops falls to the ground with the wind, embellishing this tranquility with a quiet and dynamic beauty.

Suddenly, the sound of "cracking" horseshoes broke the silence in the forest, and the perched birds rushed out of the forest in fright, singing towards the sky.

Two figures galloping from far to near, they galloped past in the blink of an eye, a piece of slush was splashed where the iron hooves passed, and a few dead grasses were exposed and swayed in the wind.

When looking at the exit of the forest, the man in black in front slowed down, and the **** horse breathed out hot air, flicked the fiery red mane and tail, and walked slowly.

The white-clothed man who had been walking side by side also slowed down, turned his head and asked calmly, "What's the matter?"

"Passing through this forest, there is a small town in front of you. Find an inn and stay here tonight."

"Ah."

"Now go slowly, it's just dusk when we arrive."

Xu Zixu nodded slightly, and noticed that there was a strange air flow in the trees in all directions, and knew that the guards hiding in the dark had arrived.

They just went through the ambush at noon, if there is another fierce battle and confront the enemy head-on, they may not win well, even if they win, they will inevitably lose their troops and lose their generals. It is too obvious, and it also serves to confuse the enemy.

Chu Yi Xu Zixu all the way, Lian En all the way, Suo Wangpin all the way, each led a team, and met in Shuangjing City.

Chu Yi and Xu Zixu dressed up as young knights traveling together, and the black riders were broken into pieces, hidden in the dark for protection, and the horses were used as a cover for horse dealers going to the king's city for business.

In addition, some people were left as civilians, temporarily staying in hotels to take care of those who were seriously injured and were not suitable for traveling.

It's just that this circle, which originally took half a day, took two or three days.

The two galloped fast, wantonly, but they suffered from the people who followed closely in the dark. After going all the way, Xu Zixu discovered that these black cavalry had never left behind. Still no disorder.

It can be seen that its endurance is good.

With a movement of Chu Yi's figure, Li fell off the horse and started to stroll leisurely.

Xu Zixu glanced at him, and flew to the ground, walking slowly as the master wished.

"I'm afraid there will be heavy snow again tonight. I don't know if the yellow-mouthed child in the distance will wither all night and freeze into a snowman, haha..."

Xu Zixu looked up at the sky, but couldn't see anything, could it really snow at night?

"Don't look at the clear sky now, but in a short while, cumulus clouds will float over the mountain. Now that the temperature is extremely low and the humidity in the air is increasing, this snow may not be weak." Chu Yi paced with his hands behind his back. Walking, the seemingly self-serving words have the meaning of explanation.

"Then the trip will be delayed again?" Xu Zixu said lightly.

"Why not delay for three or four days?" Chu Yi spoke contemptuously and leisurely, but his attitude clearly revealed incomparable arrogance.

"That's right! Even the return to the imperial court after the end of the war can be postponed for a month or so. In just three or four days, it's really not a problem. I can't imagine that the sixth prince of Tianpei is so free and unrestrained? Or is it that King Tianpei is extra tolerant? How much?" Xu Zixu smiled lightly, but his teasing words were clearly tentative.

"Naturally, he is more tolerant than your Emperor Chaoyang!" Chu Yi laughed a few times, but did not give a clear answer, but his expression was intriguing, as if he was indeed hiding something unknown.

Xu Zixu's expression turned cold: "Hmph! You like exposing people's scars so much, it makes people wonder how you enjoy the reputation of Corporal Lihuai!"

Chu Yi walked forward a few steps, stopped, and slightly raised his hand. Xu Zixu suddenly felt that the surrounding atmosphere was far away, and he heard him say in a low voice:

"Could it be that you haven't let go yet?"

Xu Zixu looked sideways, and the other party's expression of letting go of his soft-spoken and laughing words was so secretive, he couldn't help but tremble in his heart.

Because of the unpredictability hidden under the indifference of the other party.

Chu Yi's words had already touched Xu Zixu's privacy, and even more so, the atmosphere became tense in an instant, and the forest was so quiet that even the sound of pine needles falling could almost be heard.

In this sudden confrontation, Chu Yi raised his head and said lightly, "The sky is about to change."

When Xu Zixu raised his head, it turned out that the black clouds on the mountain were rolling, and the waves were pushing towards him.

Chu Yi suddenly turned around, looked directly at Xu Zixu, pointed at his feet with a serious expression, "In your opinion, what's down here?"

Xu Zixu raised his eyebrows slightly, not knowing what he meant, and looked down at his feet, seeing the black footprints on the snow and a few pieces of dry grass poking out of the snow, his eyes moved.

Chu Yi smiled slightly: "Literati often praise the luxury of peonies, the grace of peonies, the fragrance of orchids, and the nobility of pure lotus. However, although these beauties are beautiful, they are too delicate to appear flashy."

Chu Yi observed the subtle changes in Xu Zixu's expression, and continued: "I just love the toughness of this weed. It is true that they are just dry grass covered by snow, but as long as the roots are still there, no matter how violent the snowstorm is, the open fire will Smelting, or crushing and trampling, as long as the time comes, he can always break through the ground, time and time again, showing his tenacity and arrogance to the world!"

Xu Zixu was startled, and looked up at the man in front of him.

"Do you know how much disaster the people of the Northern Kingdom would have endured if there were no such large expanses of weeds in the Northland where wind and sand rages from time to time?"

Xu Zixu didn't respond, Chu Yi also looked away after speaking, and walked forward a few times with his hands behind his back.

In the forest, there was only a slight creak of feet on the snow.

However, Xu Zixu was shocked by the words just now, and also thought deeply.

What kind of wisdom and indomitableness are hidden in these soft words!

He looked at the straight back of the person in front of him, and every step he took seemed to be telling the determination and strength of his master!

All of a sudden, the winding path and green pines lined up on both sides disappeared in the vast field of vision, leaving only this proud figure walking forward.

What Chu Yi meant was that a tenacious life always looks forward to the future.

And most importantly: hope, and change, only in the future.

"Chu Yi—"

"If you don't hurry up, I'm afraid we will be the ones who become snowmen." Chu Yi sighed, tilted his head slightly, looked at the people who were standing still, changed his serious expression a moment ago, and returned to his usual leisurely elegance.

Xu Zixu looked at him like this, and the words he couldn't utter had to stay in his throat.

Chu Yi gave a sharp whistle, and the guards who had been far away returned to their positions one after another. He flew on his horse and galloped away first.

Seeing this, Xu Zixu also got on his horse and galloped along the winding footprints.

After entering the small town, he found a clean inn to stay in. Xu Zixu opened the window and looked out. There were dark clouds in the sky, and the low altitude was overwhelming.

After dinner, Xu time arrived, as expected, snowflakes floated in the sky, getting bigger and bigger, and the sight was gone for a while.

"Although the town here is small and there are many people with mixed eyes, it is inevitable that there will be no enemy eyeliner. If you don't change your signature clothes, no matter how many tricks you have, it won't help."

Chu Yi was holding a teacup to drink, when he heard this, he looked at himself and smiled: "Thanks for reminding me, I really forgot."

After he finished speaking, he kept staring at Xu Zixu, stroking his eyes inch by inch from head to toe, unscrupulously, the latter could only pretend to ignore, turned around to look at the snow scene outside the window, unexpectedly Chu Yi put down the teacup and walked over, Looking at him left and right, there was a sound.

Xu Zixu finally became angry when the opponent's hairy hand was placed on his waist, and he waved him away, moved his feet and took three steps back, and stared at the opponent warily.

Chu Yi was taken aback for a moment, then spread his hands out for a moment, and said innocently: "I just want to measure your size, this body is always white, shouldn't I also change it?"

Xu Zixu's veins were slightly swollen, and he smiled subtly: "It's really nothing to worry about."

"You seem to have been avoiding me?"

"If I really hide from you, how can we still talk now?" Xu Zixu pushed back with a calm expression.

Chu Yi thought about it, smiled, didn't say much, turned around and walked towards the door: "I won't disturb your rest."

As soon as he opened the door, he met someone holding a medicine bowl and was about to knock on the door. Seeing Chu Yi, he hurriedly bowed and bowed. Chu Yi looked at the dark liquid in the bowl, and let someone enter on one side of his body. The footsteps to go out stood still.

"My lord."

Xu Zixu glanced at it, stood in front of the window with his hands behind his back, and said lightly: "I don't need to send it anymore."

"Yes."

Chu Yi took it, and looked at Xu Zixu's back: "Then pour it down." With a slight tilt of his wrist, all the black medicinal juice flowed into the flower pot.

Putting back the empty bowl, he waved lightly, and his subordinates bowed and retreated.

Xu Zixu looked back at him with an indifferent expression.

Chu Yi didn't look at him this time, and walked out the door. He paused when he got to the corridor, looked up at Xu Zixu's room, smiled slightly, and walked away again.

Xu Zixu looked at the empty door, and suddenly thought of many things that he hadn't understood before.

This person, in fact, has been reminding him that from the moment he first arrived in Wangcheng, he murmured "the fifth day..." before leaving that night, as well as the many deliberate provocations after that, and the deliberate mention of Emperor Chaoyang several times, they were all temptations.

Perhaps more of a pressure.Force him to look ahead as quickly as possible, instead of immersing himself in the past and pitying himself, unable to extricate himself.

This person has been waiting for him to recover from the pain.

Especially since he spoke so clearly today, did his performance disappoint him?

Xu Zixu looked up, and everything around him was covered by the snowstorm.
