The general went out again at night

Chapter 78

All the way to the north, Xia Qingshu and Ji Qianyao hurried on the road overnight, but their hard work paid off. They didn't find any traces of Liu Yan and Shen Anyi along the way, not even a single trace.

They pinned their last hope on a fortress passing from north to south.

"The city of Nanjian County is surrounded by high mountains. The mountain road is steep and difficult to walk. From south to north, this is the only way to pass. Liuyan and the others will definitely choose to go through the city." Xia Qingshu was dressed in a man's attire, and held a long Tsing Yi gown. Zhang Tutu and Ji Qianyao analyzed, "We searched the city for a day, if we still can't find it, we will go straight north to the secret place."

Ji Qian, who was also dressed as a man, nodded, and then clicked on the two on the map: "Nanjian County has only two gates, one for entry and one for exit. Liuyan and the others must pass through this when going north." Why don't we squat near the city gate? If we see them, stop them immediately."

"good idea."

There is a Laifu Inn next to the north city gate of Nanjian County. A wing room on the second floor is located by the window just enough to see the pedestrians passing by the city gate.

Xia Qingshu found this place, ordered a pot of tea and a few plates of snacks, and sat by the window with Ji Qianyao, eating slowly.Their eyes drifted out of the window from time to time, taking a closer look at the common people passing by the city gate.

"Shop er, bring us some more tea." Unknowingly, we have been searching for two hours, and the two pots of tea have been drunk without a drop, but the figures of the two people have never appeared.

Those few days of delay were missed after all.Xia Qingshu became more and more disappointed.

"Guest officer, here comes the tea you want!" The waiter brought in a pot of freshly scented tea, neatly put away a few empty plates on the square table, and wiped the table.Before leaving, he asked, "Do you want to add some food, the two guests?"

"No need." Xia Qingshu shook her head in a rough voice.

The shop clerk smiled so hard that all creases appeared on his face: "Okay, the two guest officers can call me anytime if needed."

Don't talk too much, don't wait too long, the waiter is very knowledgeable.After taking away the empty plates and teapot, he thoughtfully closed the door for the two guests.

Seeing that the door was closed tightly and there was no movement outside the door, Xia Qingshu took his gaze away, and then turned weakly out of the window.

Ji Qianyao turned his head and glanced at her, picked up a piece of peach cake with his chopsticks and put it on the plate in front of her, and said warmly: "If you are tired, take a rest and eat something to relieve your irritability."

Ji Qianyao understands Xia Qingshu, and knows the meaning of her every expression. If any bad emotions arise, he must be comforted in time.

Not being able to find it and not knowing whether to consume it is their current predicament.

A wry smile appeared on the corner of Xia Qingshu's mouth, and he lowered his head to look at the peach cakes on the plate.

Ji Qianyao stretched out his hand to stroke her head, and comforted her: "Look at another hour, if after an hour, we haven't seen those two, we'll get up and go north."

It is obviously unwise to spend it in one place all the time.This is what Xia Qingshu was worried about.Hearing Ji Qianyao's arrangement, she also felt it was appropriate, so she nodded.

Xia Qingshu picked up the chopsticks and ate the peach cake on the plate, Ji Qianyao took over her work and fixed his eyes on the city gate.

Xia Qingshu only tasted half of the peach cake, and Ji Qianyao on the opposite side suddenly stood up and said in surprise: "I found it!"

The unfinished half piece of peach cake fell into the plate with a "bang", Xia Qingshu dropped the chopsticks, stood up, and her expression brightened up bit by bit: "Is it really them?"

Ji Qianyao approached the window and poked his head out, trying to see the man more clearly.After a while, she confirmed the man's identity.

"It's not Liuyan and Dr. Shen, but Sujin. Sujin is at the gate of the city." Ji Qianyao pointed to a woman in blue and motioned for Xia Qingshu to look.

Xia Qingshu took a closer look in the direction Ji Qianyao pointed, and found that the person was undoubtedly Su Jin.

They parted ways in the village and agreed to meet at the Xinglong Inn in Nagqu County, but after Xia Qingshu and his party arrived at the inn, they couldn't find Sujin.

In order not to waste time, they left a note in the privacy of the wing room of the Xinglong Inn, pointing out the direction for Su Jin to move forward.

"We have to hurry down and stop her, Sujin is about to leave the city gate." Xia Qingshu said anxiously, looking at the advancing team.

"Go!" Ji Qianyao grabbed his belongings and ran downstairs with Xia Qingshu.

"The two guest officers are leaving?" Seeing the two of them walking downstairs quickly, the waiter stood beside the stairs and asked with his head raised.

Xia Qingshu threw a piece of silver at him: "The room upstairs is reserved for us. I just happened to see an old friend, so I'm going to invite him now, and we'll be back in a while."

"Okay, the two guest officers can go at ease, the upstairs room will definitely be reserved!" The waiter put the money away, with a smile on his face.

Xia Qingshu and Ji Qianyao walked out of the inn quickly, and walked straight to the gate of the city.

At the gate of the North City of Nanjian County, the people lined up in two teams and walked forward in an orderly manner.Su Jin wore a silver-white sword on his waist, and clasped his hands in front of his chest, with no expression on his face, as if no strangers should enter.

She was at the end of the long line, walking steadily as the line advanced slowly.

Suddenly, an arm was placed on her shoulder, and her forward steps stopped.

A displeasure gathered between Su Jin's brows, and she was about to turn around to get angry, but then, her other shoulder was also pressed, and an excited voice sounded, "Su Jin, it's us."

Su Jin didn't turn around, she stayed in the same place, and guessed the two people on the left and right by her voice: "Dian..."

As soon as the word came out, Ji Qianyao glanced at the soldiers guarding the gate of the city, and quickly stopped her words: "Hush! Come with us."

Ji Qianyao and Xia Qingshu let go at the same time, turned around and walked towards the Laifu Inn behind.Su Jin turned around and looked at the backs of the two of them, she was obviously taken aback for a moment, then erased the change, and trotted two steps to keep up with the two of them.

The three of them walked side by side at the entrance of the inn, Su Jin couldn't hide her excitement: "I searched all the way from Nagqu, so I can count on finding you!"

"It's a good thing I recognized you, otherwise we would have missed it again." When the master and servant reunited, Ji Qianyao couldn't help being excited.

Stepping into the inn, people's voices were noisy, Xia Qingshu looked around and said in a low voice: "This is not a place to talk and reminisce, let's go to the wing room."

When the two heard the words, they all fell silent, and followed Xia Qingshu to the wing room on the second floor.

Close the door, the noise downstairs is blocked outside the door.

"This subordinate has lost his duty!" Su Jin knelt down with her fists clasped, her face full of remorse.

Ji Qianyao quickly helped her up, and said angrily: "Where is there any responsibility or non-responsibility? Have you forgotten what we said on the boat before? You have given us kindness by choosing to walk with us, and we should thank you of."

Su Jin stood up, and then asked: "Is your journey going well?"

"It's hard to say. What about you, something happened on the way, why can't I find you at the Xinglong Inn?"

"It's a long story."

Hearing this, Xia Qingshu smiled, lifted the teapot and poured three cups of tea: "Okay, let's drink some tea, sit down and talk slowly."

Ji Qianyao sat beside Xia Qingshu: "Sujin, let me tell you about your situation first? What happened in Nagqu County?"

Su Jin took a sip of tea with a serious expression, cleared her throat and said, "I met someone from the palace in Nagqu County."

"People in the palace?" Ji Qianyao and Xia Qingshu looked at each other in shock.

"Jin Yiwei's new commander, Mu Bing, and his subordinates."

"What are they doing here?"

"They came to look for me, hoping that I would return to the palace to serve His Majesty. I rejected Mu Bing face to face, but they refused to give up and kept persuading me. I was worried that you would be bumped into by them after you entered the county, so I took them to other places for some reason. I went around the county town and returned to Nagqu after getting rid of it.”

It turned out that the danger was so close to them, Ji Qianyao said gratefully: "Thank you, Su Jin, if you hadn't helped us go around, maybe the secret of our fake death would have been discovered."

"I caused these disasters, so I will naturally deal with them." Su Jin waved her hand.

"Then you went back to Xinglong Inn?"

"Yes, I found the note you left in the wing room, and I searched for it all the way. What happened to you on the way?"

Ji Qianyao gave an overview of what he experienced along the way, and Xia Qingshu added a few words from time to time.

Su Jin had already sorted out the ins and outs, and sighed: "What happened to you is so dangerous! Fortunately, you were not injured..."

A look of sadness appeared on Ji Qianyao's face: "In the past, Miss Cai was by my side, and we relied on her spiritual power to be unscathed. Now that we are separated, there may be more dangers in the future. Sujin, this is not a trifling matter, this The road is too dangerous, I hope you stop here and go back to Jiangnan."

With a serious expression, Ji Qianyao persuaded Sujin earnestly. Neither she nor Xia Qingshu wanted to implicate innocent people because of their own affairs.They are not sure that they can win the final victory, which means that those who help them are very likely to die for them.

"Retreating at this time is definitely not what Su Jin did. There is such a big conspiracy behind the tree coffin man. I know it clearly, but I avoid it. Even if I live in peace, my heart will not be happy." Su Jin's words Looking back and forth between the two people on the opposite side, his hands became fists: "Not only for you, but for the common people in the world, I should do my part."

Ji Qianyao had already expected Su Jin's attitude and determination, and after she was rejected again after persuasion, she gave up.

Around the tree coffin man, the three discussed for a long time.Xia Qingshu didn't dare to forget about the business, and when talking, her eyes would drift out of the window from time to time.

The gaze went back and forth, and accidentally stopped on Sujin's ear.

Su Jin sat on the opposite side of her and Ji Qianyao, Xia Qingshu clearly saw a mole on her earlobe.

It's normal for people to have moles on their ears, but the one on Sujin's ear somehow made her feel familiar...
