Phoenix that can't smile

Chapter 229: A Thought of Life and Death (2)
"Okay! Brother Cheng Rong, I will trust you once more! Take care!" Qu Tu raised his eyebrows happily, smiled and bowed his hands to Cheng Rong, and then slowly walked into the forest with An Tong.

"Young Master, what the hell is Master Cheng Rong doing? We have time not to run now, and we have to wait until midnight. Could it be that if we can't run now, can we run in the middle of the night? I'm worried, Master Cheng Rong is clearly the King's Spy, deliberately tricked us not to fight with the king, so as to trap us!" In the dark mountain forest, with the sword in his hand, he struggled to open up the thorny road, An Tong couldn't help becoming suspicious, winked at Jue Tu, and said own doubts.

"An Tong, I understand Master Cheng's character. He is absolutely righteous and scheming, so there must be some truth in what he said. As long as we follow his ideas, we can definitely save the day!" .

Just at this moment, at the other end of the woods, suddenly there was the sound of horses' hooves and people's voices. Qu Tu and An Tong looked out from the bushes faintly, and they saw a group of imperial forest soldiers passing by with a murderous look, holding bows and swords.

"Oh, my lord, Master Cheng Rong is really lucky! If we hadn't listened to him just now, we might have fallen into the ambush of the Imperial Forest Army right now!" An Tong held his chest and said happily in a low voice.

"An Tong, there are more than eleven passages downhill from Lishan Mountain, and the Imperial Forest Army will pass by at any time, so we have to hide deeper to be safe." Jue Tu grabbed An Tong's arm and pulled the two horses away. Tied to a branch, quietly got into the mountain stream.

The sky was getting darker, and the Li Palace in Lishan stretched for ten miles, brightly lit, colorful flags, and a worried Bao Si, with green sleeves and long ju, stood silently on the steps of "Jia Jia Palace", trying to look into the distance.

"My lord, it's been almost a day, and I haven't heard that you have found Mr. Dutu, and, among the generals burned to death by Wan Ruxuan, two people are missing at all, but Xiao Ruzi is hiding it in the open. It's time to go!" Axi rolled his eyes and said vigilantly.

"Axi, this time, it's hard for you. You are under such strict surveillance by the king's people, so I can't take you with me this time. I will go alone. You have to be careful." Bao Si happily patted Patting Axi's palm, he said with a smile on his eyebrows.

"My lord, you must be careful by yourself. If you can't find Mr. Dutu, come back as soon as possible. Be careful of the lackeys of the concubine Jin and Concubine Ge. Watch out for them to take the opportunity to spread rumors. Frame the young master!" Ah Xi reminded worriedly.

"Well, Axi, I understand. You and Mingyue stay in the Li Palace. You must pretend that nothing happened. Don't make the king suspicious!" Bao Si put on a white cloak and put on a Putting off the pink cloak, he clings to Ah Xi's hand and exhorts him carefully.

The night began to deepen, and the bright moon hung upside down in the blue night sky. At this time, in the forest of Lishan Mountain, it was almost impossible to see your fingers. Jue Tu and An Tong calculated that it was probably past midnight, and the two of them were hungry. , then carefully led the horse, and quietly stepped out of the forest.

At this time, I suddenly heard the sound of the pendant ding-dong on the bank of the stream. Juetu's eyes lit up suddenly, and he led the bay red horse out of the bushes. After that, Bao Si.

"Si'er, you're here! It's too dangerous here, you just need to send Axi out to meet us, it's really unnecessary." Jue Tu was moved and burst into tears.

"Young Master Jutu, don't talk about it. I did this only to prevent the king from making mistakes again, and to keep my Dazhou Sheji and Jiangshan absolutely safe. Let's go, I have already used the king's token to deceive the guards on this road. The imperial forest army, go far away, and lead troops to fight the Xirong people at the border!" Bao Si cut to the point and lightly opened her lips.
