Chapter 102
"Okay." Ye Zhaoyan forced a smile, feeling deeply in a bad mood.

Zhuo Yibai was also aware of the strangeness, and couldn't help but nodded, "In this case, I will definitely bring the letter with me."

"Thank you sir!" Mrs. Ning saluted him, "The old lady will see you off soon."

The two left the small courtyard and walked along the mountain road.

Looking at the backs of the two of them gradually disappearing into the setting sun, Liu Da couldn't help frowning slightly.

He always felt that these two people were strange, but he couldn't tell what was so strange.

"Brother, that little lady seems to have some kung fu!" Liu Er came out from the side room, "She is quite similar to the woman who went up the mountain to make trouble a few days ago!"

"Really?" Liu Day was taken aback, feeling a sense of uneasiness in his heart.

Seeing his expression, Liu Er had an idea in his mind.

Ye Zhaoyan and Zhuo Yibai walked for about two quarters of an hour and came to a stream.

This is a small stream that surrounds the mountainside. The stream is gurgling and flowing, and the clarity of the stream is refreshing.

Ye Zhaoyan got off his horse and fiddled with the water in the stream with his hands.

Her strength gradually recovered, and it was obvious that the medicine in her body had taken effect.

She reached out to pick up the water, and it stained her lips. The stream water was very cool, and the cool feeling made the blood in her whole body feel better.

Zhuo Yibai stood beside her, his gaze fell on the pair of eyes reflected in the stream.

The stream is clear and bright, reflecting those cold and arrogant eyes, like the bright moon in the sky.

A familiar feeling suddenly appeared in Zhuo Yibai's heart, he raised his right hand and rubbed his brows.

Those eyes seemed to have been seen somewhere before.
How can there be such a strange feeling?
"Just rest here for a while!" There was a sound of horseshoes in the distance, interrupting his thoughts.

The sound of horseshoes approached quickly, Zhuo Yibai pulled Ye Zhaoyan to hide in the bushes beside him.

Just as they hid themselves, a few bay red horses galloped up, and immediately sat seven or eight older middle-aged men, and behind them was a tall black horse, majestic and radiant.

On a black steed, a young man in his twenties was dressed in silver-white armor, with a tall and straight figure and a dignified appearance.

Holding the rein in his hand, he rode a black steed and walked towards the stream step by step.

"How come there is no one after chasing here? Could it be that the man remembered the wrong direction?" He had a solemn face, and there was no expression on his handsome face, staring sharply at the soldier in front of him.

There was a hint of surprise in Ye Zhaoyan's eyes.

This young man is none other than Ye Yunfei, the deputy commander of the Ye Family Army in Shangbi Mountain.

It was no accident that they met here.

A soldier came to Ye Yunfei's side, bowed his hands, "Reporting to Commander Ye, Liu Er saw with his own eyes the fork in the road they chose, maybe those two walked faster."

Hearing these words, Ye Zhaoyan and Zhuo Yibai looked at each other with solemn eyes.

"Oh?" Ye Yunfei raised his eyebrows, and there was a touch of doubt in his voice.

"Subordinates absolutely dare not lie!" The guard assured with a sincere face.

"Here's a horse!" A cry came out.

Everyone followed the prestige, and saw a horse tethered by the stream.

Its hair is shiny and shiny, and a rope is tied around its neck, and the other end of the rope is tied to another thick old tree, swaying in the wind.

"There must be someone around here, search for me!" Ye Yunfei got off his horse, waved his hand and ordered his soldiers to search for traces in two ways.

A group of people quickly spread out and searched.

Ye Yunfei stopped in place, his eyes swept around, and there was a trace of doubt between his brows.

It stands to reason that his speed is relatively fast, so he should find the two of them first, why was he left behind?

A guess quickly flashed across Ye Yunfei's mind, and his face suddenly sank.

His eyes looked around in the grass, and finally stopped under a few trees, his eyes suddenly focused.

"You stay and search with me, and the others continue to search!" Ye Yunfei told two burly soldiers not far away.

He led the people over quickly.

Ye Zhaoyan and Zhuo Yibai saw Ye Yunfei walking towards them behind a tree tens of meters away, they exchanged glances, and retreated silently.

Even so, the subtle movement in the silent forest was noticed by those who cared.

Ye Yunfei snorted coldly, and looked darkly into the depths of the forest, "You guys ran fast enough to come into this forest!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the rest of the people quickly surrounded the tree.

Zhuo Yibai and Ye Zhaoyan galloped through the forest, the two were extremely fast, and the forest was covered with many obstacles, which was not conducive to riding horses, so they gradually lost sight of the group of people.

Out of the confines of the woods, they stopped to rest.

Ye Zhaoyan leaned against the tree, panting heavily, with beads of sweat on his forehead.

"Your injury has not fully recovered, and you still need to continue to recuperate. You should not run for too long." Zhuo Yibai's eyes fell on Ye Zhaoyan's legs, and there was a flash of worry in his eyes.

Ye Zhaoyan looked down at his legs, and smiled bitterly: "I know, but if you don't hurry up, they will definitely catch up later."

Zhuo Yibai pondered for a moment, then led her to the high place of Mount Shangbi for a while.

The eyes of the two gradually widened. Not far away, the mountains towered into the clouds, and the top of the mountain was covered with lush and lush forests. In the depths of the forest, everything was hidden in the thick mist, as if a cloud of mist enveloped the entire mountain. Can't see clearly.

"Is the Ye Family Army in there?" Zhuo Yibai asked.

"Well, that's where some of the Ye family's army is stationed." Ye Zhaoyan nodded, looking into the distance, the real and most powerful Ye family's army was outside the border.

"However, it's heavily guarded and it's very difficult to get in." Ye Zhaoyan came back to his senses and continued.

"It's not difficult for Miss Ye, is it?" Zhuo Yibai looked at Ye Zhaoyan.

"Naturally." Ye Zhaoyan laughed, his eyes fixed on the dense fog, and the corners of his mouth curled up in a confident arc.

Since she was a child, she often went to play in the army, and many soldiers knew her.

After Mrs. Xue was in charge for a few years, she brought the Xue sisters back to the mansion to raise them. She often used Xue Zhiyan as an example and warned Ye Zhaoyan that "women are based on virtue" and she is not allowed to go again.

A few years have passed, and I don't know what happened to those people now.

"In this case, how about wronging Miss Ye one more time?" Zhuo Yibai looked at her with tenderness in his eyes.

Ye Zhaoyan raised his head and looked at him with questioning and doubts in his eyes.

Suddenly, there was a sound of horseshoes in the distance, Ye Zhaoyan and Zhuo Yibai quickly dodged and hid behind the boulder, held their breath, and listened carefully.

A moment later, a group of cavalry rode up and reined in the horses in the open space not far away. The soldiers on the horses dismounted one after another, and the leader was Ye Yunfei.
