Chapter 405 Nothing to hide
Rongshui will not make herself look weak, and she does not want her words to sound unreliable.

On the contrary, she really wanted Cheng Qijun to feel at ease with her. Everyone knows how dangerous Langzhou is. It was enough for Cheng Qijun to send her here, and it was considered as the best of humanity. She didn't want him to continue to follow him anymore. I went down by myself.

Such heavy protection and waiting. She already felt that she couldn't afford it.

It's just that how could Cheng Qijun be scared away by Rong Shui's short words?
His unspeakable feelings for her would not dissipate in fear of future dangers, otherwise... as early as when he rescued her in the cave, he would have left.

So he resolutely said to Rong Shui: "Rong Shui, just say it straight, no matter what purpose you go to the border or what you are going to do, I will not shrink back. What I just said is all from my heart , and I’m speaking as your friend.”

The word "friend" may be strangely soothing to Rongshui. She finally let go of the guilt in her heart, and dared to tell Cheng Qijun everything.

Said: "Half a month ago, I received an intelligence report from Wang Wucheng at the border. There were rumors that an army entered Langzhou to spy on the military situation, but... it never returned, and this team... It is very likely that it is Jun Li's team."

It just sounded like before, Cheng Qijun roughly guessed that this never-ending team might be Junli, whom Rongshui paid close attention to.

So. She is going to Langzhou to confirm the news?

Rong Shui continued: "So...the purpose of my going to Langzhou this time is to rescue Junli! I also have a hunch that he has not encountered any accidents, but...falling into the hands of the enemy camp, he will probably suffer a lot. Go find him!"

As Rong Shui spoke, tears were mottled in her eyes, yes. Once she remembered what Junli was going through right now, she couldn't feel at ease day and night imagining the torment he might suffer, and felt the torment Incomparable.

Of course, Cheng Qijun also witnessed Rongshui's pain. He stepped forward to comfort her, but hid his fingers when he reached out. In case Rongshui found out, besides, he didn't have the opportunity to comfort her. what.

I had no choice but to say in words: "Rong Shui, don't worry. After all, we haven't confirmed anything yet, maybe Junli has already escaped, or the news is wrong."

He could see that Rong Shui was so sad, but he was helpless, he knew that perhaps only when he saw that Jun Li was safe and sound, Rong Shui could rest assured.

Rong Shui said again: "Of course I hope it's what you said, but I don't dare to have too optimistic thoughts. I have to go and see him. It's really safe and sound, so I can rest assured."

If it was as Cheng Qijun said, why didn't she look forward to it?

Now Cheng Qijun understood all of Rongshui's thoughts, so he followed her words and said: "So, we should go to the road of Wang Wucheng first, the news came from there, at least we have to go there While confirming, no matter how prepared you are, is it Rongshui?"

After thinking about it for a while, Rong Shui agreed with what Cheng Qijun said. It is indeed extremely irrational to go to Langzhou City without any preparation, not to mention the strict security over there. It is almost certain to die.

She wanted to go directly to Langzhou before, but now that she thinks about it, she is too impulsive. Maybe it's because she cares about chaos, so there is no arrangement like this.

Now after being reminded by Cheng Qijun, she nodded, and said gratefully to Cheng Qijun: "It's better if you imagined it, if it's really like me, rushing into Langzhou City recklessly, I don't know if I haven't taken half a step yet, Maybe he will be arrested by the Khitan army."

After Rong Shui finished speaking, he hesitated again, but in the end he insisted on finishing what he wanted to say, so that Cheng Qijun could realize what kind of danger they were going to be in when they entered the border this time.

So he said again: "Qi Jun, there is one more thing I want to tell you, do you want to ask why I want to save Junli at all costs?"

With Rong Shui's words, Cheng Qijun didn't want to hear why he went to save Junli?He has this doubt, and this doubt has always existed, but he has never been willing or willing to ask it out.

Doesn't asking out mean that Rong Shui is forced to admit their relationship?This is obviously a question that he can't even escape in time, so...how could he ask it?
He said directly: "No. Rongshui, you can save whoever you want, and I, Cheng Qijun, will definitely help. I don't need to know the reason why you want to save him."

After speaking like this, he turned his head away, as if he didn't want to discuss this issue.

But such a reaction actually made Rong Shui a little unexpected. Why?Cheng Qijun didn't want to know these things, he didn't even ask why, and just followed him for so long.

But if he doesn't ask or tell, it doesn't mean that she will continue to hide it from him. Didn't she make a decision a long time ago. Wouldn't she hide anything from him?
So even if Cheng Qijun made it so clear, Rong Shui didn't intend to shut up. Seeing Cheng Qijun sideways, she simply stepped forward to correct him, and then said: "No! I won't let you be confused Just keep following me! I was going to confess everything to you just now, Cheng Qijun! You are my friend who accompanied me to risk my life to go to the border. You are not a servant hired by me! So you have the right to know what you should know Everything, today I will tell you all!"

Rong Shui said he was a friend, and Cheng Qijun, who continued to reject him, was speechless. There was a kind of unknown fear in his eyes, fearing that she would tell him the answer at the end, and that he would never be able to treat him again. I no longer know.

He looked at Rong Shui deeply hiding his emotions.

It was only a compromise when he opened his mouth, he said, "That's fine."

Rong Shui said in this way: "You are a friend. My forever friend. I will not hide it from you. Junli and I are in love with each other. Before he went to the border, we had agreed that I would wait for him to return at home and marry me."

Rongshui didn't know what she said, and Cheng Qijun felt that every word was painful. He felt the severe pain like knocking on the missing finger, which made him almost unable to hold on even while clenching his teeth.

Breaking out in a cold sweat, he turned his head dangerously and stopped looking at Rongshui.

Then Rong Shui was a little confused by his reaction, and said, "Qi Jun? What's wrong with you? Is there something wrong?"

Due to Cheng Qijun's deliberate concealment, Rong Shui still doesn't know about Cheng Qijun's injury until now, but seeing that he is obviously not feeling well, he is also very worried.

Cheng Qijun was afraid that Rong Shui would find out that something was wrong with him, so he endured the sudden and strange pain, and said forcefully: "I'm fine! Help you rescue him, as long as you need me for anything, I will be obliged!"

Rongshui didn't want Cheng Qijun to be "obliged", she just thought she should explain all the reasons to Cheng Qijun who sincerely helped her.

After I finished talking about this, I felt happy in my heart as if I had let go of some burden.

Rong Shui said: "Stop talking about this, since. Qi Jun, you still choose to go with me. Then let's go on together."

Cheng Qijun tried his best to put aside all the sour feelings, Rong Shui admitted his relationship with Junli in front of him, what a cruel thing it was for him.

But other than trying to pretend nothing happened, he can't even show any emotion. Yes, only someone like Junli can be worthy of Rongshui. He can't let the smart girl notice anything. Otherwise, Maybe I can't even be friends with her.

He had no choice but to say: "Okay, let's go together, Rong Shui, and I will walk with you forever."

Rong Shui ignored the last ambiguous sentence, and still showed a faint smile to Cheng Qijun on his tired face, the sweetness in the dimple was enough to melt Cheng Qijun's physical and mental exhaustion.

Maybe it's fine like this. As long as I can stay by her side all the time, even if it's just to protect her, it's such an honor.

Seeing that the two had reached a consensus, Cheng Qijun and Rong Shui started their journey again, and they headed towards the city closest to Langzhou, Wangwu City.
In the blink of an eye, it was already two or three days' journey, and finally arrived at Wangwu City before the sun set on the fourth day.

They passed through the Wangwu Mountains, and stood on the hill overlooking the entire Wangwu City. The first thing they entered was the camps that were stationed in the city walls. These were the mighty Khitan troops of Dayan, and then they felt that the whole place was very desolate and deserted.
Cheng Qijun saw the big characters written on the gate of the city from afar, Wangwu City. This is a city named after it is next to the Wangwu Mountains. Compared to Langzhou, it is not that big.

However, although the town is small, it has all the internal organs and everything. Most of the people in the city have left scattered, leaving behind the lonely, widowed, old, weak and sick who are inconvenient to move around.

It is true that no one on the front line is willing to live here for a long time, so even if you look at it from a distance, you can feel the dead silence in the city.

Cheng Qijun said: "Rongshui, we have arrived at Wangwu City. Wangwu and Langzhou are only half a day's journey away. It's not too far away. The Khitan front has not yet been seen, so... here is safe for the time being."

Rong Shui didn't respond, she was fascinated, analyzing Wang Wu's current situation.

The plan that Cheng Qijun mentioned before was a complete awakening for her, so that she no longer panicked and began to slowly recover her previous calmness and wisdom. Because she knew that it was impossible for her to go on like this, let alone save her. Now that Junli is gone, maybe he won't even be able to see Junli's face in the end, so he will be on this road.

Looking back at Cheng Qijun, the firmness revealed in his eyes, not retreating, made Rongshui believe that he was ready to enter Wangwu City with him.

Then he said: "Okay. Qi Jun, let's go to the city!"

"drive--!"

After the two finished talking, they drove their horses in the direction of Wang Wucheng, not knowing what was waiting for them.
