Fang Wujiu knocked on the door to wake up the two junior brothers.
Wen Jiucheng and Pei Qianhu opened the door and walked out without even getting dressed.
When they saw the little junior sister, they were all stunned and asked in unison.
"Why are you here?"
Xiao Xixi told her dream about the murder of her master.
"I'm very worried about Master's safety. I have to go to Nanyue in person. Do you want to go with us?"
Wen Jiucheng and Pei Qianhuo agreed without thinking.
They were all brought up by Master, and they have a deep relationship with Master. How could they know that Master is in danger and yet remain indifferent? !
While Wen Jiucheng and Pei Qianhu were changing clothes, Fang Wujiu went to the kitchen to take out the steamed buns left over from eating during the day, and then took out two large bowls of dried fish and chicken strips from the cupboard.
Originally, these were small snacks prepared for Lao Wang, but now that they are leaving, it would be a waste to leave them, so it is better to take them all, and they can be used as dry food on the road.
Fang Wujiu wrapped all the food in a furoshiki, and also filled four water bladders.
When everything was ready, the four set off.
Wen Jiucheng asked: "The city gate should not be opened at this time, how can we get out of the city?"
Xiao Xixi: "I know that there is a tunnel that can go directly outside the city, but I'm not sure if that tunnel is still there. Let's take a look first. If it doesn't work, think of other ways."
When King Xiling and Qin Zhong rebelled, Luo Qinghan asked people to dig a tunnel leading to the outside of the city in advance in order to be able to break through the city as soon as possible.
Since then, no one has mentioned that tunnel again.
A group of four came to the backyard of Xu Ji's pawnshop.
The owner of this shop has long since left Shengjing with his wife and children. Now the yard is just an empty shell.
Xiao Xixi pushed open the door of the firewood house in the backyard, knocked on the ground, and quickly found the tunnel entrance.
He pulled open an iron door, revealing a dark tunnel.
She couldn't help but feel fortunate, thank God, fortunately, Luo Qinghan didn't let anyone seal this tunnel.
Fang Wujiu entered the tunnel first.
He picked up the torch stuck on the wall and lit it with the torch he carried with him.
The other three entered the secret passage one after another.
The old city of Wen, who left early and last, carefully closed the tunnel door so as not to be discovered by others.
The four of them walked along the tunnel.
It took a long time to see the end.
Fang Wujiu gently pushed open the authentic door, looked out through the gap, it was pitch black outside, and no one was seen.
He cautiously climbed out of the tunnel, followed by Xiao Xixi.
Then came Pei Qianhu and Wen Jiucheng.
When the four of them climbed out of the tunnel, they discovered that the exit of the tunnel was next to the city wall. As long as they looked up, they could see the soldiers standing above the city wall.
Wen Old City carefully hides the tunnel exit.
Fang Wujiu found that a patrol was coming here, and immediately greeted the other three to leave here quickly.
The city wall is surrounded by a moat. If you want to pass the moat, you must pass through the bridge.
However, there are guards on the bridge. Once someone gets on the bridge, they will definitely be found by the guards. If there is a big noise, the nearby patrols will be attracted, and the four of them will not want to leave.
Fang Wujiu said solemnly, "Go into the water, let's swim over!"
All four of them can swim, and the water is very good, swimming through the moat is not a problem.
The four jumped into the water one after another and swam hard towards the other side of the river.
Xiao Xixi's luck was not very good. She was swept away by a big wave for a long distance in the process of crossing the river, causing her to choke twice.
After she managed to maintain her balance, she found that the senior brothers had disappeared.
The river was very fast, and Xiao Xixi was afraid of another big wave coming, so she didn't dare to stay in the river for too long, so she immediately accelerated and swam to the other side of the river.
Anyway, she will calculate the position, even if she is temporarily separated from her brothers, she can find them quickly.
Finally touched the edge of the river bank.
Xiao Xixi grabbed a handful of weeds, used strength to move closer to the bank, then climbed on the bank with both hands, and kicked up hard.
The sound of clattering water.
She jumped out of the water just like that and landed firmly on the river bank.
But the next moment she froze.
She saw not far ahead, a black horse was standing quietly.
A handsome man sat on horseback.
His brows were as cold as a lonely moon, his complexion was as cold as frost, his thin lips were pursed into a straight line, and his whole body exuded a icy aura.
The cold wind blew through, taking away the little body temperature left on Xiao Xixi's body. She was completely cold from the inside to the outside, and her complexion became as white as paper.
She had one thought in her head.
Done!
She never expected to meet Luo Qinghan here.
He was hit by him while fleeing, how should she explain
Would he understand if she told him the truth
Before she could figure out how to explain, she heard Luo Qing speak coldly.
"Why are you here? Are you trying to run away?"
The icy voice was wrapped in the fierce cold wind, making Xiao Xixi feel a chill to the bones.
Resisting the urge to shiver, she smirked.
"Would you believe me if I said I couldn't sleep in the middle of the night and wanted to go out for a swim?"
Luo Qing asked coldly: "Do you think I will believe it?"
Xiao Xixi said dryly, "I probably won't believe it."
Luo Qinghan drove the horse under him to move forward.
The rattling of hooves became clearer.
The distance between the two is getting closer.
Xiao Xixi was soaked all over, her wet hair was sticking to her face, her clothes were still dripping water, and her whole body was extremely cold.
She raised her hand and wiped the river water from her face, and said pitifully.
"I can explain it."
She decided to tell him the truth. This matter was related to Master's safety. She believed that Luo Qinghan should be able to understand. He was not the kind of unreasonable person.
But at the next moment, she heard Luo Qing speak coldly.
"You really should explain to me well, was my father killed by you?"
Xiao Xixi stayed for a while.
She seemed to be somewhat unresponsive, and blinked a little blankly.
But then she came back to her senses.
The whole person froze in place.
Now, not only is her body cold, but her heart is also cold.
How did he know about this
How should she answer this question
She didn't want to lie to him, but she couldn't say "I killed your father with my own hands".
She really didn't know what to do.
The brain is in chaos, and the body has already responded first.
She turned and ran, she wanted to get out of here for a while.
She didn't want to face Luo Qinghan before she could deal with it.
Ranhe didn't wait for her to run far before she was slammed down by Luo Qinghan from behind!
Luo Qinghan pressed her to the ground, her red eyes stared at her, and asked in a hoarse voice.
"What are you running for?!"
…
Good morning everyone~
