Xia Chu and Xiao Mubai looked at each other, and the air was instantly filled with an invisible atmosphere of embarrassment. Because the raven was guarding outside, their words were not deliberately lowered.
At the same time, they also forgot that the raven outside the house could hear everything clearly, including the last word 'burden' in Xia Chu...
Xia Chu glanced outside the room, then turned to look back at Xiao Mubai hopefully, pointing to him to smooth things over.
Xiao Mubai seemed to be gloating about his misfortune and had no intention of speaking for him.
Xia Chu flattened his mouth, picked up the corner of his clothes with two fingers and pulled at it.
Xiao Mubai sighed imperceptibly, tapped his forehead, and then said to the outside: "Raven, have you noticed the person next to Concubine Li?"
A trace of murderous aura suddenly appeared, and as it spread, a gray figure appeared outside the house. Raven raised his eyes and looked at Xiao Mubai, and suddenly said: "It's the master of the door."
Xia Chu looked stunned. He had always known that Concubine Li was colluding with the Lingmen, but he didn't know that the masked man who had been following Concubine Li all these days was actually the master of the Lingmen.
"Don't you want to settle it?" It was obviously a question, but Xiao Mubai said it very firmly. His tone was as usual, but Xia Chu could hear an indescribable emotion of struggle.
The raven didn't speak, but turned around again.
Xia Chu knew that he had not refused, but had already agreed.
He took two steps forward, poked the raven on the shoulder and coaxed: "I was joking, we raven are the best in the world, but the Western Regions are full of bad guys who use poison. You are too naive."
"Ordinary poison can't do anything to me." The raven sneered, tilted his head arrogantly, and urged Xiao Mubai: "Are you still leaving?"
Xiao Mubai followed his words and stepped out of the house. It was really time to leave. Now was not the time to be greedy and gentle.
Xia Chu looked at his hand that was hanging down as he passed by. She wanted to hold it but tried her best to hold it back. The two of them were so deeply connected that they didn't even dare to take another look...
Seeing the backs of Raven and Xiao Mubai disappearing into the night, Xia Chu couldn't help but confess to Raven: "Raven, you have to bring him back alive to me."
Just when Xia Chu thought he couldn't wait for an answer, the word 'good' came from the cold wind, which calmed his slightly uneasy heart.
"Ordinary poisons can't hurt you, but the poisons in the Western Region are not ordinary." Xia Chu sighed and murmured to himself. As he spoke, he left the house. It was time for him to leave.
Just when Xia Chu went to the backyard, a figure rushed over and almost ran into him head-on.
Xia Chu had just stepped aside when another red ball came towards him. When he stretched out his hand to catch it, the person who came over also stabilized his figure. Only then did he realize that the person coming was actually Xu Wenlan, who he had been hiding from for many days. , and the red ball in his hand is exactly Diandian.
She hadn't seen Xia Chu for many days, and her claws grabbed his clothes and pushed her tightly into his arms. A small ball of red was soft and warm.
"Are you looking for Mu Bai? He has just left. You should be able to catch up to him at the north gate." The smoothness of Dot's fur made Xia Chu couldn't help but hug him tighter, his eyes wandering as he wanted to get away quickly. Xu Wenlan.
Xu Wenlan looked at him for a moment: "I'm here to find you, and you are going to find her, right?"
These words sounded a bit difficult to pronounce, but Xia Chu understood what he meant immediately.
But Xia Chu had a lot of things that he didn't know how to tell him, so he could only stroke the fur again and again but remained silent.
"Take Diandian with you." Xu Wenlan said after a while and handed Xia Chu a navy blue purse: "Help me pass it on to her."
Xia Chu couldn't avoid it, but finally reached out and took it.
This answer is equivalent to acknowledging what Xu Wenlan just said, that he is indeed going to find Lan Yuying.
He waited for Xu Wenlan's barrage of questions, but when he saw Xu Wenlan handed over the purse without saying anything, he immediately turned around and left.
When Xia Chu saw his back, he looked lonely and desolate. In the past, the pair of beautiful people who were a pair of gods and gods were now alone, which inevitably made people feel sad. Xia Chu couldn't help but call him: "Xu Wenlan..."
Xu Wenlan paused for a moment, then looked in the west direction and suddenly said: "I just hope she can come back, everything else... doesn't matter."
Xia Chu looked in the direction where his eyes were looking and was startled. Her hand touching the fur paused for a moment, and he asked hesitantly: "You... know?"
Xu Wenlan shook his head slightly and sneered: "You have hidden me so tightly, I can only make random guesses. Xishan was suddenly bombed, the emperor was assassinated and lay in bed, sudden changes occurred in the palace, and Lan Lan disappeared inexplicably. Mu Bai once mentioned in a very vague way Click me and say that Lanlan and I are not the same person."
He paused, and then continued: "General Zhao is going north from the east gate, and Mu Bai is also going back to Chongqing. And since you are leaving alone, you must go west, which only means that Lan Lan is also here. There."
Xu Wenlan's slightly thin face always faced the west direction, and his profile was shining brightly in the moonlight, but Xia Chu saw a trace of heart-stopping sadness flashing in his eyes.
In the end, those unspeakable words turned into a sigh.
After Xu Wenlan left, a man and a horse appeared at the door of the backyard. As Xia Chu approached, the horse roared happily and snorted.
The man leading the horse also gradually appeared in outline under the moonlight. Bingwen smiled and handed the reins in his hand to him.
The snow is gradually melting, and spring has been approaching for more than a month, but there are still icy stubbles everywhere.
Xia Chu took the reins from Bingwen, leaned down to look at Chiyi's hooves, and then gently rubbed its mane to show comfort.
Bingwen smiled at him and said, "Wen Lan, things have become very different."
Xia Chu watched Diandian having fun on horseback, causing Chiyi to scold and snort. He patted his shoulders and replied with emotion: "Piano skills are easy to learn but difficult to master. He is already talented and intelligent. In the past, It's just that he is as wise as he is foolish. After this incident, his youthful appearance has finally faded away, and he has become so mature that it makes people feel sad."
Bingwen crossed his arms across his chest and pretended to be angry: "You are so old-fashioned, I think you look like this, you are mature and make people feel sorry for you."
Xia Chu smiled: "Now you all know my whereabouts very well."
Bing Wen put aside his teasing look and suddenly straightened his expression: "If I hadn't learned martial arts, I would have wanted to go on this journey with you."
Xia Chu joked with a smile: "You should stay in Beijing and take control of the overall situation."
Bingwen did not answer his teasing, but solemnly entrusted him: "Prince Jing is a nice person, you..."
"Don't worry, grandpa has asked me to leave the blood of the Gu family." Xia Chu got on the horse with a graceful movement. Before riding the horse, he suddenly looked back: "Qian'an's sister, please help him find some snacks..."
