Traitor

Chapter 319 Nanfu Town

The old man left, and the guests in this inn also came and went in a hurry, after all, they were all on their way, if they didn't take advantage of the good weather to leave quickly, would they have to wait for the wind and sand to return?
"Master has gone out." The man was clearing the tables, chairs and benches in the lobby.

Xue Lan nodded, and walked out.

"Miss Xuelan went to see that young master again?" The man frowned.

Xue Lan took a deep breath, nodded slightly, and walked out without saying a word.

Not far behind the inn, stood a blood-stained stone tablet. There was no handwriting or signature on it, only a hairpin embedded in the stone tablet.This represents everything, and also represents a person's last wish.

The wind blew the veil on her face whirring, and the hem of the skirt patted her body, causing a slight pain.Xue Lan stood there, looking at the stele, and then at the yellow sand all over the sky, she was alone in the sun.

"According to your method, I released all the news. If you are alive, please bless Lord Qiantose again! Sometimes, the person I would rather die is me. At least in his heart, he would prefer you Alive." Xue Lan's eyes were slightly hurt, and the tip of her nose was sore, "You saved our two lives, and you are our benefactor. I will bring those words for you, as long as I can still live! "

Standing there, looking at the boundless desert, she felt that her whole body was hollowed out.Loneliness and loneliness, as well as that kind of hopeless despair, can't see where the hope lies.

She didn't know when she would have to wait until Zhao Wuyou came to save her.Or, what was waiting was not Zhao Wuyou, but a more tragic disaster.

Life or death becomes extremely small in this desert.

Here, hope cannot be seen, but hope must be waited for.

Fortunately, the news was released, and it was more or less effective.Especially now that Daye is no longer under Xiao Rong's control, it is much easier to pass the news without so many obstacles.

Dongchang was the first to receive suspicious news. After all, Dongchang has the best eyeliner. Once the connection between the capital and the outside world is established, the news network extending in all directions will quickly spread the news to the capital.

The news came from the border of Daqi. It seems that there was a signal from Dongchang near Nanfu Town of Daqi.Some codes are used internally, and they are used exclusively by the highest-level hidden guards, so no one dares to be careless, and hurriedly sent them back to Daye.

Shen Yan frowned, "Border of Daqi? Nanfu Town?"

After finishing speaking, Shen Yan quickly spread out the map, there are so many big and small countries near Daye, this Daqi can be regarded as a big country, even though it is separated from Daye by thousands of miles of yellow sand.

Finally, Shen Yan found the location of Daqi's Nanfu Town on the map, the location was a bit vague, it was about that area.

"This is a wild place, with dragons and snakes mixed together, could the news be wrong?" Shen Yan said to himself.

He let out a long breath, but he couldn't go there in person.After much deliberation, he thought that this matter should be left to Zhao Wuyou to decide!On some matters, Zhao Wuyou was more considerate than himself.

Thinking of this, Shen Yan turned around and asked someone to bring the falcon over, and tied the secret letter to the falcon's ankle.I hope Zhao Wuyou can make a choice, and I hope this news is true, so that Zhao Wuyou can find his brother as soon as possible.

When the falcon flew out, Shen Yan's eyes darkened slightly.

Hope this news is true.

Zhao Wuyou also hoped that the news was true, holding the letter, she did not recover for a long time.There were tears in the eyes, the lips could not stop trembling, and how many people knew the soreness in the nose.

Encountering great changes, her inner fragility turned into a nonchalant face.

Finally... finally there is news, isn't it?

The tears finally rolled out of the eyes. After all, there was still news. After all, there was news.No matter whether the news is true or not, she has to look for it.If there is any mistake between their father and daughter, she is not sure if she can survive.Because you can't see people when you are alive, you can't see corpses when you die, so you have lived so hard until now that you dare not collapse!
Yes, dare not crash.

If she collapses, then there is really no hope at all, and she would rather make things difficult for herself than persevere.

"My lord, there is finally news." Su Xi choked up.

Zhao Wuyou looked back at her, and suddenly squatted on the ground covering her face and crying, she no longer knew how to express her excitement and madness at the moment.The burden on her shoulders was too heavy for her to breathe.

She is just a woman after all, what she wants is a couple for the rest of her life, just an ordinary life of a husband and a child, is this unforgivable?
Su Xi didn't speak, just quietly waiting for Zhao Wuyou to finish crying.

How long Zhao Wuyou held back, Suxi knew very well.The life and death of Lord Qiantui is uncertain, Sang Yu's death, Xiao Sirui's being robbed, all these are fatal blows to Zhao Wuyou.It was such a thin woman who carried everything without any complaints.

From the beginning to the end, Su Xi never heard Zhao Wuyou's complaints or remorse, she thought - Zhao Wuyou should have never regretted it.Those who have never regretted others are naturally full of hope and dare not despair.

In these years, Zhao Wuyou has only relied on a sliver of obsession to get to where he is today.

But at this best age, when she was most beautiful, she met Mu Baili.It is really doomed, destined.

Zhao Wuyou was not the kind of person who would cry hysterically, she cried very carefully, even in pain, she only cried softly, this kind of carefulness made Suxi also burst into tears.

I have seen many scenes of life and death, but this time it really hurt Suxi.She remembered the hairpin she had lost, but still hadn't returned to her side.

She cried and said, "Men are the most deceitful in the world, especially with that mouth. It's clearly agreed, but if you say that you will lose you, you will lose you in your heart when you leave."

Zhao Wuyou burst into tears, after so many days, it was the first time she cried so heartily.It's really difficult to have a hard time with a strong face and a smile.

"Suxi, pack your bags, let's go!" Zhao Wuyou stood up and wiped away tears, "I'm going to find him, there is no place worthy of my nostalgia in this capital city, this imperial court in Daye."

Su Xi nodded, "No matter where the young master goes, I will follow you to the death. So what if it's Daqi, I will follow you for the rest of my life."

"I believe he is still alive, he must be alive." Zhao Wuyou looked at the letter wet with tears in his hand, "I hope there will be." As long as God opens his eyes, she believes that hard work will pay off.

As the chief general, he couldn't leave without permission, but at this moment, Zhao Wuyou could only arrange for his own people to take over the power, and captured the mountain to wipe out the Regent's army.She thought it would take a certain amount of time, and her own people would definitely delay it until she was safe.

But she couldn't care less about these things when she was full of joy, she didn't plan to come back after she left.

Get rid of his powerful official position, get rid of his status, whether it's a prime minister or a prince or a teacher, it doesn't matter anymore.Even the entire Daye world can't compare to the person in her heart.

Speeding up the horse, Zhao Wuyou took Suxi and his shadow guards and headed straight out of the pass.That kind of mood can hardly be described in words. I wish I could fly to that place called Nanfu Town with two wings.

Because he was from Daye, Zhao Wuyou couldn't go there in an upright manner, and separated from the shadow guards, and gradually entered Daqi's territory.Fortunately, Daqi and Daye trade with each other, and the relationship between these neighboring countries is not weak.After all, Daqi has experienced the calamity of the Great Yin, and soon after his founding, he needs to maintain friendship with all the nearby countries.

After entering Daqi, Zhao Wuyou went straight to Nanfu Town, going through many obstacles, even if he had to eat and sleep in the open.No matter what she will experience, her mind is full of Mu Baili and her daughter.

No matter who these two are, nothing will happen to them.

Zhao Wuyou didn't know how long she had been running around on the road, the tireless but joyful mood repeatedly tormented her.His expression was already numb, but his heart was still trembling for him.

When he arrived in Nanfu Town, Zhao Wuyou was still dressed in white, but his complexion turned a little pale.The wind and frost erosion along the way made her look a little embarrassed, but fortunately she was full of energy.

Standing on the land of Daqi, looking at Nanfu Town where people come and go, compared to Jinling City in Daye, this place is really a bit shabby.Dragons and snakes are mixed here, barbarians and Central Plains people do business here and exchange their needs.

Zhao Wuyou took a deep breath, and told the shadow guards to go to a nearby inn to rest, so Zhao Wuyou stayed in the inn, as long as Suxi was by his side!She is already good at languages ​​and has excellent learning ability. Although Da Qi's words are not very good, she can understand them, so communication is not a problem.

Fortunately, there are many barbarians here, and they are all merchants, and the shopkeepers don't ask the origin of the customers, which is not surprising.

In terms of food, the food in Nanfu Town is unavoidably rough, since it is close to the desert and not as rich as Daye, Zhao Wuyou can only make do with it.When he was away from home, he suffered so much, even went hungry, so what is this suffering!

Now she is only waiting for the news from the shadow guard, to see who sent the news from Dongchang.

Because of Mu Baili's accident, Zhao Wuyou ordered Shen Yan to go to the border to investigate, so there was a temporary stronghold on the Daqi border.People from Dongchang had been active here, so they got such precious news.

In fact, according to Zhao Wuyou's deduction, there was only one reason why Mu Baili didn't turn back to Daye after the Jinling City was broken, and didn't go straight to the capital, and that was that he couldn't return to the city.If he can't return to the city, according to the route on the map, he is most likely to flee to these neighboring countries for temporary shelter.

But all countries are in turmoil, and other countries are not easy to enter, but Daqi is now stably exchanging trade with Daye. It is indeed easier to go to Daqi than other countries, after all, there is a big desert that doesn't care.

Although he knew that he would die if he rushed into the desert rashly, but he would die if he didn't go in.And Mu Baili is a person with a strong desire to survive, Zhao Wuyou guessed that he would really take the risk to survive.

Sitting in the lobby eating, Zhao Wuyou thought that these places are the easiest places to get news, so even though he was eating, he still had to listen with his ears pricked up, so as not to miss the news by mistake.

Su Xi accompanied her and listened carefully.

But there was no useful news until the shopkeeper at the door laughed, "Yo, shopkeeper Lin is here."

The old man threw the burden on the table, "As usual, let's have some beef and a pot of tea."

"Still don't drink?" The shopkeeper smiled, "Traditional shopkeeper Lin really has been like a day for ten years!"

"Bah, how long have you known me? It's still ten years!" The old man was extra fussy, "Hurry up, I'm almost starving to death." Then he dragged the buddy and said, "By the way, I told you last time Can you help me pay attention to those things?"

The clerk smiled, "Master Lin was joking, we dare not be careless about what you ordered! But look for yourself, the people who come and go here are all merchants, and it is not easy for you to find a son-in-law. It is not a big deal. The old man is a merchant you don't like, where can I find you a satisfactory one, and he must have a handsome face?"

The old man thought about it, and it seemed to be the reason.Taking a bite of sauced beef with chopsticks, he sighed helplessly, "So, it's really a dead end?"

"Otherwise, you will just settle down and accept the younger one!" the man joked.

The old man kicked over, kicking the guy so that he fell to the ground immediately, and then laughed for a while.The people in the lobby also laughed, but no one paid attention.

Zhao Wuyou just ate with his head depressed, and didn't bother to pay attention to these things.

Unexpectedly, the old man's sharp eyes suddenly saw the boy in white sitting in the corner.

With warm eyebrows and fair complexion, at first glance, he really looks like a handsome young man?Just like jade!I was still wondering, when did such a young man come to Nanfu Town?He was born with delicate features and handsome features.

The old man stroked his chin and beckoned for the shopkeeper to come over.

The shopkeeper was fortunate to rely on the old man to save his only son, so he and the old man were regarded as life and death friends.Sitting down, following the old man's line of sight, the shopkeeper immediately smiled, looked at the old man, and said in a low voice, "Did you like it?"

"Where did this white and tender baby come from?" asked the old man.

The shopkeeper said, "He said he was passing by. We don't ask where the customers come from here. The people in all directions are passing merchants doing business. Who knows where he came from. But it's very good to see this face. Looking at the three courts and five Eye, is a blessed one."

"It's more than a blessing, this white and clean one is indeed a first-class one." The old man chewed the beef, "Look at this Nanfu Town, when there will be such a handsome young man, it must be someone's son."

"However, upon closer inspection, it doesn't look like someone from Daqi, and his accent also looks like a foreigner." After all, the shopkeeper has seen countless people, "Why don't I go and ask for you!"

The old man hesitated for a moment, "Outsider, with such a handsome face, the woman next to him must not be his wife?"

The shopkeeper shook his head, "No, it was said earlier that he was the eldest sister, but it is doubtful whether he is a sibling or not. But according to his age, the family should have a wife too! He is so handsome, there must be a wife in the family Meijuan. Tell me, if someone gets married, do you still have to beat the mandarin ducks?"

The old man rolled his eyes, "It's not done yet, you're just a crow's mouth. Hurry up and ask me, if he is an innocent person, I have plenty of ways to make him come with me!"

The shopkeeper laughed dryly and patted the old man on the shoulder, "Wait!"

After saying that, the shopkeeper walked towards Zhao Wuyou with a pot of tea.
