Chapter 166
Ye Zihan took two attendants out of the South City Gate and walked all the way west. About half an hour after walking, the three of them arrived at a wasteland. Ye Zihan raised his hand to stop, and the wind opened his mouth lightly. After walking for so long, everyone must be tired. What will happen if we take a rest?
After saying that, Ye Zihan sat down on a stone without waiting for the two attendants to speak. The seemingly aimless look is actually feeling the hidden position of those masters. Unfortunately, although he knew that someone had been following him behind him, he could not accurately determine the location of the person's hiding place.
This wasteland is high. There is a stream 20 meters away from Ye Zihan. Maybe it is because the weather is too cold, or it is a sandy land on the border, and there is a thin layer of ice on the surface of the stream. As soon as the wind blew, there was a slight cracking sound of ice.
Ye Zihan still holds a hundred-fold fan and shakes. It seems that the winter is as hot as that summer day in his eyes. It's really strange. Before the winter solstice, the stream has actually frozen. It seems that this year's New Year is not easy!"
There was a playful smile in his dark eyes. Ye Zihan faintly saw a few dark shadows under the ice, floating motionless in the stream, looking like floating grass in the water.
"Ms. Ye, it's windy here. Let's go somewhere else to have a rest." The book boy standing on the right side of Ye Zihan said.
Ye Zihan's resting place is upstream of the stream, and the cool air blown by the wind floats here. Ye Han was not afraid of the cold, but the two little book boys were afraid of the cold. After a while, they shivered coldly, and their lips became blue and purple.
"The scenery here is very good. Why should we change places?" It seems that he didn't notice the strangeness of the two people beside him. Ye Zihan still had a folding fan in his hand and looked like he was really looking at the scenery. He looked left and right.
The two little book boys felt colder and colder. The coolness of the stream blown up by the wind was very strange. It was even colder than the cold wind blowing on their bodies. What's more strange was that it made people feel drowsy. Mr. Ye, this place... I'm afraid there is something strange here." The little book boy standing on the left swayed a few times and barely stabilized his body, but felt a greater sense of sleepiness. His head seemed to be forcing him to fall down... Fall down and have a good sleep...
After all, the two little book boys fell to the ground without waiting for Ye Zihan to open his mouth to move.
"Hula..." Ye Zihan suddenly got up, put away the folding fan, and walked towards the stream. Unexpectedly, there are still people who like to swim in this cold winter. Ye is really impressed.
At a distance of more than 20 meters, Ye Zihan seemed to be slow, but the stream came in front of him in the blink of an eye. He glanced coldly at the dark shadow under the stream, and the folded fan in his hand instantly took off his hand and shot at the dark shadow. As the folding fan hit the ice, a "stuck" sound came from under the stream.
The folding fan seemed to be spiritual, and it hovered in the air and changed its direction, hitting the man in black again. It looks like an ordinary folding fan, but at this moment it is like a sharp sword, faintly hitting the calf of the man in black with a faint sound of breaking through the air.
The man in black who was hit by the folding fan flipped several times in the air, took advantage of the situation to avoid the next attack, and fell straight to the opposite of Ye Zihan, with a trace of appreciation in his eyes under the black turban. I have heard the great name of the scholar of folding fan for a long time, and with a hundred folding fan, he has made a great reputation in the world. Today, it is really as powerful as a rumor.
As the man in black landed, the hundred-fold fan returned to Ye Zihan's hand in the wind and became an ordinary fan. It's just the love of the people in the martial arts.
"Kick...Kick..." With the opening of the man in black, there were a few slight cracks of ice, and there were several more men in black robes on the shore, standing behind the first person in black.
Ye Zihan casually glanced at the man in black in front of him and was surprised to find that there were a few fewer people. Before leaving the city, he clearly felt that there were ten people following him, but now there are only seven people standing in front of him? And Ye Zihan was keenly aware that the person with the highest martial arts skills was not among these seven people!
When didleave? Before leaving the city? Or after leaving the city? I didn't even notice it at all! Ye Zihan's scattered heart tightened in an instant. Did the man see through his plan? Shit, Your Highness!
"I don't know how many people want to follow Ye from inside the city to here?" At present, there are seven enemies, but they are the only one! Although his martial arts skills are not bad, any of these seven people is estimated to be comparable to him.
The man in black standing in the front seems to be the little leader among the seven people. At present, he doesn't say much and directly tells his purpose. Naturally, I hope that Mr. Ye can take me to meet the Third Highness of Yuguo.
Sure enough, it came for the Third Highness! Ye Zihan's eyes were a little cold in an instant. The identity of the Third Highness is still being kept secret. In addition to himself, even the people around him do not know the identity of the Third Highness. How do these people know that the Third Highness of Yuguo is still in the world and in this small border city?
"Ye doesn't know what you are talking about, and he doesn't know who the Third Highness is. I don't know how to talk about it when you wait to see the Third Highness." It was not the right time for the identity of the Third Highness to appear in front of the world. Ye Zihan returned to his previous dil and said with a folding fan.
The man in black seemed to have expected that Ye Zihan would not obediently take them to the Third Highness of Yuguo, and he did not show much disappointment when he heard the words. Since Mr. Ye has no intention of taking me to meet your Third Highness of the Rain Kingdom, there will be no future!"
After saying that, the man in black pulled out a sharp sword and attacked Ye Zihan fiercely. The six people in black standing behind him retreated more than ten meters one after another, obviously disdaining the fact that many people surrounded and beat one person.
Ye Zihan was always on guarding the other party's movements. Seeing that the man in black pulled out a sharp sword from nowhere to attack him, he closed the folding fan in his hand and took three steps back lightly, and easily dodged the arrogant sword.
He glanced at the other six people in black standing not far away. Their well-trained posture and exposed eyes were full of peace. Ye Zihan knew that they would never take action. However, even if he dealt with the man in black in front of him, Ye Zihan still dared not be careless.
With two of his favorite men, he was divided into two ways with his companion soldiers from the south gate. One route followed Ye Zihan out of the gate with six subordinates, while the other team quietly left the team with two men and went east of the city.
At this time, he had already made friends with Ye Zihan outside the city, and Jie also lurked into a house in the easternmost part of the city with his two men.
Difference from the large number of maids in other mansions, the silence of this mansion makes people feel a trace of coldness during the day. The courtyard full of leaves and the front hall full of spider webs also reveal that this mansion may have been inhabited for a long time.
Jing ordered the two men to stay in the front hall, and he hid all the way to the back garden. As soon as he arrived in the back garden, he obviously noticed something was wrong. Compared with the dirty and despicable of the front yard, the back garden was extremely clean, with no fallen leaves or spider webs, and the soil placed in the corner of the courtyard was obviously watermarked, which was estimated to have just been watered.
The back garden is not big, and there are only three wing rooms, one big and two small. The door of the big room in the middle is locked, and the lock is rusty, and there is no sign of opening the doors and windows. Obviously, it is not the place to look for.
Carefully dived to the other two huts to explore, but the result was the same as the big house, with no sign of opening the doors and windows... Did you find the wrong direction? Hidden in the dark, a pair of sharp eyes kept scanning everything in the backyard.
Inadvertently, Jie's eyes fell on those pots of camellia. The bright red camellia flowers are in full bloom, and there is no sign of depression because it is winter. Instead, they are blooming more and more gorgeous and flourishing.
It turned out that the strange thing was here... He looked left and right on the pots of camellia, and Jie finally found the place he was looking for. Several flashes, and the figure of the ring appeared in the corner of the courtyard. The black clothes and the flower stems of the camellia reflected each other and merged with each other. If you don't look carefully, you can't see anyone standing next to the camellia at all!
Although the key to knowing the place you are looking for is these camellias, you don't know where the organ is.
"Ka..." Just as Jie was concentrating on looking for the mechanism, a slight sound of a branch breaking came into his ear. Jie quickly hid behind the flower pot and cleverly hid his figure with the shadow of the flower stem.
Just after the ring had just hidden his figure, a white figure appeared in the back garden. The visitor did not look flustered, just like going in and out of his own house. He was not in a hurry to do anything when he entered the back garden, but walked slowly towards these pots of camellia.
"This camellia has bloomed again, and the color is a little brighter than yesterday. It's really rare and tight!" He looked at the blooming camellia in a surprised tone and said, walking around the camellia, as if thinking about something.
After hiding in the flower pot, although he can't see the appearance of the comer, he still judged by his voice that the comer is the national teacher of the Celestial Empire, depressed!
