Lin Sishen stayed in Shen Qingwan's room for a long time, watching the sunset, but Li Luo did not show up in Pingliang City for a long time.

Originally, according to the plan, Li Luo should rush to Pingliang City before dark, take a short rest, and then follow Lin Sishen and Shen Qingwan to the old house of the Chu family, and enter Longling through the secret passage they accidentally discovered.

Although Li Luo was only half an hour late, Lin Sishen was already pacing back and forth in front of the door in a hurry, and his brows were furrowed to show concern.

Seeing Lin Sishen swaying non-stop in front of her eyes, Shen Qingwan had no choice but to put down the teacup in her hand, raised her eyes to look at her, opened her lips and comforted her softly: "You also know Miss Li Luo's skill, you don't have to worry so much."

Lin Sishen shook his head, frowned and said worryingly: "She is always punctual, and when she delivered the news that she arrived in Pingliang before dark, she would definitely arrive before dark. Since she arrived late, there must be something wrong on the way."

Compared with Lin Sishen's anxiety and worry, Shen Qingwan looked extraordinarily calm and calm. She poured a cup of warm tea from the pot and slowly pushed it to the table. It's Sun Wenqian's eyeliner, if Miss Li Luo wants to sneak into the city quietly, it's normal to delay for half an hour."

"Having said that, but..."

Although Lin Sishen understood what Shen Qingwan said, she still couldn't help worrying about Li Luo. She walked back absent-mindedly and hesitantly, sat beside Shen Qingwan, raised her hand to drink the tea cup, and even Before he had time to taste what tea was in the cup, he swallowed it down.

Seeing this, Shen Qingwan frowned slightly, and glanced at her lightly, seemingly dissatisfied.

Lin Sishen was holding the teacup, and only belatedly remembered that the pot of tea on the table was brewed by Shen Qingwan himself just after spending a lot of effort, and the original intention was to drink tea with Lin Sishen.

But Lin Sishen is good, swallowing dates like this will definitely make Shen Qingwan dissatisfied.

Thinking of this, Lin Sishen hastily smacked his mouth, and repeatedly praised like a dog's leg: "Good tea, the aftertaste is mellow and sweet, it is indeed the tea soup brewed by the Princess herself."

As she spoke, she wanted to lift the teapot and pour another cup, but the tea soup had only dipped halfway through the spout, and Shen Qingwan stopped her, sighing softly, "You're so restless, so don't waste your money."

Lin Sishen stared at Shen Qingwan, and was about to explain, but Shen Qingwan raised her hand to stop her, and said helplessly, "Calm down and wait for half a stick of incense, and Miss Li Luo will appear."

Originally, Lin Sishen thought that what Shen Qingwan said was just to persuade Lin Sishen to wait patiently, but what she didn't expect was that Shen Qingwan actually lit an incense in the incense burner of the wooden table, and then put the incense burner on the table , let Lin Sishen stare at it and wait.

And she herself was sipping the remaining half pot of tea calmly and calmly.

I don't know if it was out of curiosity, whether Li Luo would appear in front of his eyes when the incense was halfway burning as Shen Qingwan expected, Lin Sishen stared at the incense burner in front of him with suspicion.

Not far from Pingliang City, there is a dead wood forest. These dense and green trees have all died in the drought, and the bark on the trees has long been stripped off by the victims to satisfy their hunger, leaving only the dead wood , and cunningly cracked land.

There are many rotting corpses in the deadwood forest, and there are many crows and vultures circling in the sky, and occasionally they can be seen landing on the ground and pecking at the carrion corpses.

Although there were many disaster victims outside the city, few people approached the dead wood forest where many corpses were piled up.Therefore, this place looks particularly desolate and dead.

But this is a good place to hide, and Li Luo, who has been running around day and night, is also hiding here.

Originally, Li Luo wanted to sneak into Pingliang City before dark, but she bumped into an old acquaintance in this dead wood forest.

Just as Shen Qingwan expected, she was delayed by this person, who was none other than Meng Yange.

When Li Luo rushed to the deadwood forest, he was planning to get close to the city wall and sneak into Pingliang City after investigating, but he didn't want to run into Meng Yange, who was disguised as a disaster victim with ragged clothes and soot on his face, and was about to sneak back through the deadwood forest. In the city.

After finding Meng Yange approaching, Li Luo instinctively hid first, and when Meng Yange appeared, he planned to attack the uniform secretly first.

Of course, Meng Yange was also on guard, when Li Luo quietly approached her from the dark, ready to strike.She quickly took out a few poisonous needles from her waist, but when she turned her head, she instantly recognized Li Luo, and immediately exclaimed.

Li Luo recognized her voice, and immediately withdrew his hand, the long sword in his hand slashed across Meng Yange's neck, the sharp edge cut off a strand of messy black hair, and fell to the ground lightly.

After Meng Yange entered and exited the city, he mixed with a group of disaster victims, so he was dressed in shabby and ragged clothes, his face, neck, arms, and all exposed skin were covered with soot.

Therefore, Li Luo did not recognize her.

After they all put away their hands, they met each other face to face, but there seemed to be some indescribable embarrassment between them.

Let's say Li Luo was better, except for a brief moment of daze when he looked at Meng Yange's unsuitable outfit at the beginning, he soon returned to his former desertedness.

On the other hand, Meng Yange was so embarrassed that he wanted to find a hole in the ground to get in. Li Luo didn't come sooner or later, but he came at this time, and it happened to be when she was dressed like this.

The disheveled face looks like a beggar who has rolled around in the mud, and there is no trace of her usual charming and enchanting style.

After being relatively speechless for a long while, Li Luo saw Meng Yange's awkwardness and embarrassment. She didn't continue to look at Meng Yange, but turned her head to look at the city gate not far away, and asked: " you..."

Unexpectedly, after being shocked, Meng Yange opened his mouth in a moment of panic: "I..."

The two bumped into each other in unison. Seeing Li Luo looking suspiciously at her, Meng Yange was even more embarrassed. She stared at her toes, coughed lightly, and said calmly, "You go ahead."

Li Luo nodded, without being polite, he asked directly: "Are you going to the city?"

As if she knew Li Luo would ask such a question, Meng Yange replied without thinking, "A lot of masters hiding in the dark have come to the city in the past two days. If you want to sneak into the city quietly without alarm They should wait until after dark to find an opportunity to enter the city."

Li Luo slowly raised his eyes to look at the sky, and then pondered: "When will the guards on the city wall change their defenses?"

Meng Yange stared at Li Luo's side face without blinking: "After half an hour, it will be dark at that time, and it will be the best time to sneak into the city."

Li Luo nodded, turned to look at her indifferently, and said decisively: "Okay, then wait for half an hour."

Just like that, Li Luo and Meng Yange stayed in the deadwood forest where many corpses were hidden, and they planned to wait until dark before entering the city.

Afterwards, Li Luo didn't speak again, she leaned against a tree and waited for the night without saying a word, holding the long sword in her arms, her slender fingertips kept rubbing on the scabbard, only this From her movements, she could vaguely see that she was not as calm as she seemed.

Meng Yange was next to another tree two steps away to her left, and took out a clean handkerchief from nowhere, frowning and carefully wiping off the soot on her face.

Although he seemed serious, he secretly looked at Li Luo from time to time.

From her direction, one can see Li Luo's cold and perfect profile, and her cold eyes without any warmth.

Compared with other people, Li Luo's eyes seem to be lighter in color, especially when she looks up at the sky, there will be a few traces of gold in the depths of those amber eyes.

Thin and cold just like her.

Meng Yange stared at her for a long time, until Li Luo frowned slightly dissatisfied, and then hurriedly looked away. In order to break the embarrassment, she asked casually, "Mr. Lin called you here?"

After asking, she felt that she was too stupid. Naturally, Lin Sishen asked her to come, otherwise how could she appear here.

Li Luo closed his eyes and thought for a while, then suddenly said softly: "It's sort of."

Meng Yange didn't expect Li Luo to answer herself, she blinked and took a step closer: "Is it?"

This time Li Luo didn't answer again, she turned her head and glanced at Meng Yange, then was slightly startled but didn't look back.

Meng Yange's face hadn't been wiped clean, the wiped area revealed white and translucent skin, while the unwashed area was still dirty, looking as funny as a cat.

Li Luo's tightly pursed thin lips curled slightly, and then quickly returned to her indifference. She turned her eyes and kindly reminded: "Your face."

Hearing this, Meng Yange blushed half of his face, quickly wiped his face with a handkerchief, and asked again: "How is Treading Snow? I haven't been there for a long time, does it miss me?"

Li Luo thought about it seriously: "It's the same as usual."

Taxue eats and sleeps day after day, eats and eats when he is full, and grabs fallen leaves in the yard to play when he is free.It's just a lazy cat, and it doesn't seem to be confused by anyone's departure.

Sure enough, it is indeed Li Luo's cat, Meng Yange twitched the corners of his lips: "Who will take care of it for you after you leave Beijing?"

Li Luo seemed a little tired, she slowly closed her eyes, opened her lips and said a word from her mouth briefly: "Miss Yunliu will do it for you."

Meng Yange was startled when she heard the words. She thought about this unfamiliar name that she seemed to have heard somewhere before, and then she seemed to remember something, and smiled jokingly: "Miss Yunliu? That Mr. Lin's old lover ? Isn’t stepping on the snow afraid of strangers?”

Hearing Meng Yange call Yunliu Lin Sishen's old lover, Li Luodai frowned slightly, and said calmly: "Although he is afraid of strangers, he likes Miss Yunliu quite a lot."

Meng Yange felt a soreness in her heart for no reason, and the smile on her face disappeared in an instant. She didn't know if she was out of anger, but she smiled bitterly, lowered her eyes and muttered softly: "Sure enough, I have no conscience..."

As heartless as its owner.

She silently added a sentence in her heart, but she didn't say it.

Li Luo didn't talk to her anymore, closed his eyes and rested for a while, waited until the sky was getting late, until the last ray of afterglow completely disappeared into the darkness, then he stood up straight and glanced at a sentence: "Let's go!" .”

-------------------------------------

In the official post, Lin Sishen was staring intently at the half-burned incense, when suddenly he heard a knock on the door, Lin Sishen got up and opened the door, and saw Mo Zhu standing outside the door.

Mo Zhu whispered a few times beside her, then backed away.

Lin Sishen gasped when he heard the words, and turned to look at the incense in the incense burner on the table, which was exactly half burnt.

It's really half a stick of incense.

Her gaze shifted to Shen Qingwan who was at the side, and she couldn't hide her shock.

But Shen Qingwan closed the book calmly, raised her eyes and glanced at her, and said with a smile on her lips: "It seems that my luck is quite good, and I guessed it right by accident. .”
