Both Wen Fei and Chu Xi have lingering fears about the latter's bad luck, but in fact luck is not a static thing.When there are many unlucky situations, there will always be a time when luck will come, like tonight...

The people outside the door were getting closer and closer, and they could vaguely hear voices, so they heard one of them say: "Cross this mountain and walk for half a day, and there is a small town. The town is quite high and should not be covered by water." Yan. We can just go and have a look, inquire about the situation, and buy some dry food and the like, maybe we can rest in the town overnight."

As soon as he finished speaking, some people were dissatisfied: "What are you waiting for? You have only been walking for a few days, and you are still tired? I think you are not in a hurry at all, and you don't want to find someone at all."

As soon as these words came out, there was a sudden silence outside the door, and even the third child who was listening inside the door felt the tension in the atmosphere.

But Wen Fei, who had been on guard with a knife all along, suddenly relaxed when he heard this - listening to the conversations of the people outside, they didn't seem like villains, but rather came to look for someone.More importantly, Wen Fei recognized the voice of the person who spoke later, it was none other than the guard who had followed her for many years and was sent to Jiangzhou to deliver the letter not long ago!

Wen Fei's tense heartstrings were completely relaxed. As soon as his hand was removed from the handle of the knife, those people outside had already opened the door and walked in.They had seen the flames in the ruined temple before, and they were not surprised that there were people in the temple. As soon as the leader entered the door, he cupped his hands and said, "I'll pass by here..."

However, before the leader could finish speaking, another voice interrupted him: "General!"

The personal guard Chen Ping recognized the person by the fire at a glance when he entered the door, and immediately shouted in surprise, pushed the others away and rushed up, and when he got close, he knelt down on one knee excitedly: "General, It's great that you're fine!" After speaking, he glanced at the ruined temple, and frowned again: "General, Yang Qi and the others, why didn't they protect you?!"

This scene happened so suddenly that both the people who followed Chen Ping and the third child at the side were stunned.Fortunately, Wen Fei was already prepared, and helped him up: "When the flood came, they were all scattered. Let's not talk about this, let's talk about your business first."

As she spoke, she glanced lightly at those people who followed Chen Ping.

So without waiting for Chen Ping's introduction, the leader took a step forward and saluted Wen Fei again, much more respectful than before: "I have met the general. We are Chu's servants, and we are here for my daughter. "

This answer was expected, but perhaps because of preconceived ideas, Wen Fei always felt that these subordinates were not dedicated enough.She frowned slightly, but it was not easy to point out other servants, so she asked: "Then what about your Erlang?"

The leader also noticed Wen Fei's bad attitude.He has some face in front of Chu Erlang, vaguely aware of Wen Fei's entanglement with the Chu family, and also knows that the Chu family does not want to marry the Taiwei Mansion, so while treating Wen Fei respectfully, he also shows a complete distance.Then I heard him say: "Mr. Erlang is at home in Jiangzhou, but my girl was originally protected by the general, so I don't know where she is now?"

The tone and posture of the leader of the retinue are very respectful, but in his capacity, these words are provocative and questioning.Not to mention Chen Ping glaring at him, even Chu Xi, who just walked out from behind the mountain god statue, couldn't help frowning.

Wen Fei was the first to spot Chu Xi, and looked sideways at her, so the eyes of the group of people were drawn to her.

Those who can be sent out to pick up and search for people naturally know Chu Xi.The head of the subordinate's eyes lit up when he saw Chu Xi, showing some excitement and joy, he hurried over to salute and said: "Subordinate Zuo Ming, I have seen the girl."

Chu Xi nodded slightly, and then asked the same question as Wen Fei: "Where is my second brother?"

Zuo Ming paused for a moment, and then replied: "Back to the girl, Mr. Erlang has received the letter from the girl, and he will go to Shanghe to pick you up in person. It's just that just after leaving Jiangzhou City, news of Linjiang breaking the embankment came back. Erlang As a Jiangzhou don't drive, naturally you can't ignore it, so you had to turn back and send me to meet you." He paused again before saying: "The flood of the Shang River, we are also behind. I just found out."

Jiangzhou is actually not far from Shanghe. When Wen Fei sent his personal guards to deliver the letter, he only needed to bypass the damaged official road, so the delivery speed was quite fast.It's just that when they returned, everything was submerged by the flood, and they had to find people along the way, which made them seem extraordinarily slow.

Chu Xi could hear Zuo Ming's intention to defend Chu Erlang, but she didn't care about this trivial matter at first, so she nodded and asked: "Then my second brother sent only a few of you?" ?”

Hearing the words, Zuo Ming hurriedly said: "Not only that, Mr. Erlang sent out all the followers around him. It's just that the Shang River was flooded after Linjiang broke its embankment, and I didn't know how the girl's situation was, so I dispersed my people and asked around along the river. The news has gone."

It was a coincidence that the group of them, especially Chen Ping, could meet Wen Fei here.Fortunately, Chen Ping was with him, otherwise the followers of the Chu family would not know Wen Fei, and Wen Fei would not be worried about such a group of people with swords.There was no communication under mutual precaution, and if Chu Xi kept hiding and not showing up, maybe today's encounter would become a passing by.

Thinking of the chaos that the flood might cause, Chu Xi worried about her brother for a moment, but it was much safer to be an official in Jiangzhou than they were outside.So Chu Xi was just a little worried, and then told Zuo Ming: "Then don't call the others back, let them look around, my maid and General Wen's personal guards are both separated, see if I can Find someone."

Zuo Ming naturally agreed, but his eyes couldn't help but look at Wen Fei twice more.

****************************************************************************

There was a group of people in the ruined temple, and the atmosphere changed instantly.

The third child couldn't help being stunned when he heard the title "General", and then obediently shrunk his sense of existence and didn't say anything, only occasionally secretly looking at Wen Fei's eyes with surprise.

But no one will explain to him, and no one cares about the thoughts of a little guide, and the atmosphere of the ruined temple will not be changed because of him...

Originally, the three of them were traveling together, and the third child didn't care about anything. In addition, I saw the two of them riding together for a day, and I already regarded them as a couple in my heart.He didn't think there was anything wrong with the two showing intimacy, so he went to bed first and waited for the shift to watch the night.And Wen Fei and Chu Xi were used to getting along with each other long ago, even if they were sleepy, Chu Xi would only feel at ease falling asleep next to Wen Fei.

But now there is a group of people in the ruined temple, they are still a group of followers of the Chu family, they are protecting their own girl, and they look at Wen Fei with guarded eyes.Under such circumstances, let alone let the two rest next to each other, even if they are closer, someone will stare at them.

Chu Xi didn't know how she felt, but Wen Fei, who didn't have to watch the night anymore, didn't feel happy or relaxed, but felt inexplicably irritable.

Finally, Wen Fei got annoyed by the indistinct stares around him, stood up and walked out of the ruined temple.It wasn't until being blown by the mountain wind at night that the restlessness in my heart gradually dissipated along with the hot sweat from the fire.

Wen Fei raised his eyes and looked into the distance with the night wind blowing, and he saw mountains stretching endlessly under the moonlight with no end in sight.Looking at the direction of time, it is also covered in darkness by the night, so where can I see that small town that is still considered peaceful?

They walked out of the deep mountains, out of the small town, and reunited with their old friends, everything seemed to be over.

Wen Fei wanted to turn around to look at the girl who had been with her for many days, but she held back in the end, without turning her head, she suddenly asked, "Chen Ping, do you still have any money with you?"

Chen Ping came out with Wen Fei, he saw that Wen Fei was a little restless tonight but he didn't know why, he just followed him habitually.Hearing Wen Fei's question, he didn't ask any further questions, and only thought for a while before answering: "There are still fifty gold."

It has to be said that the little general is rich and generous, especially he will not treat those around him badly.In a sense, fighting is also the fastest way to make money.For example, before defeating the Northern Man, the little general led the people all the way to break through the Northern Man's royal court, and thus plundered a lot of money.Part of the money was turned over to the treasury as spoils of war, part of it was dedicated to the emperor by the general, and the rest was divided among the soldiers.

As the personal guard of the little general, Chen Ping received a lot of money.Coupled with the fact that he went to Jiangzhou alone to deliver letters, Yang Qi gave him a lot of money, and Chu Erlang's thank you later, all of them added up, and he accumulated as much as fifty gold.

One tael of gold, ten taels of silver, this money is enough.

Wen Fei was not too polite, so he took out a piece of paper from his pocket and handed it over: "This is a pawn ticket from the Qianji pawnshop in Shuangxi Town. You can go there and redeem the things for me. It costs money, and I will wait for it to be returned." After Chang'an, I will repay you twice."

Chen Ping hurriedly reached out to take it, but he didn't immediately take the order. Instead, he hesitated and said: "General, there is no one around you now. If I leave, I'm afraid it will be inconvenient to the general. Why don't you wait until you return to Jiangzhou, Or I can find other guards, and I will go to Shuangxi Town again." He looked at the pawn ticket and barely saw the paper on it by the moonlight: "There are still many days before the pawn ticket expires. "

Wen Fei shook his head, and said in an unquestionable tone: "You can go at dawn tomorrow. This place is not far from Shuangxi Town, and you can catch up in a day or two. Even if you can't catch up, it doesn't matter. I will wait for you in Jiangzhou. you."

Chen Ping didn't question any more when he heard the words, and immediately responded with clasped fists: "Yes."

After finishing speaking, he glanced at the dark mountain road, and he was a little ready to move, but since the general ordered him to leave tomorrow morning, he naturally did not disobey, collected the pawn ticket and withdrew - in Chen Ping's mind, the jade pendant written on the pawn ticket It must belong to the general of his family. The general of his family became an important jade pendant to take care of the girl from the Chu family, so he was eager to redeem it.But when Chen Ping arrives in Shuangxi Town tomorrow to redeem this jade pendant that has only been pawned for two days, maybe he can hear a new version of the story from the shopkeeper?

It's just that this is something for later, now Wen Fei stood outside the ruined temple and fed the mosquitoes for a while, and went back after he calmed down.

Xu Shi had a lot of courage in the ruined temple, and the summer weather was really hot, so the fire was suppressed a lot.The servants of the Chu family have cleaned up the ruined temple again, and have arranged a vigil, and are performing their duties.

Chu Xi leaned against the statue, hugged her knees slightly and closed her eyes, wondering if she had fallen asleep.

Wen Fei's gaze unconsciously lingered on her for a while longer, and others hadn't noticed yet, but the person involved seemed to be aware of it... Chu Xi's eyelashes trembled slightly, and then he opened his eyes, his clear eyes were meeting Wen Fei's. Fei's eyes met.

The author has something to say: Wen Fei (feeling grateful): Sure enough, after abandoning the heroine, the halo of the heroine is not so terrible anymore

Chu Xi (hesitant to speak): It’s just that there are too many people here...
