Chapter 298 Wild Ridge
In the middle of the night, when he was sleeping soundly, the door was suddenly opened, and a slight footsteps approached the head of the bed, and Qin Yan also woke up at this time.
Seeing that the person who came was Ye Piaoling, Qin Yan loosened his mind and was secretly dissatisfied with his vigilance. It seems that the spiritual damage is indeed so serious that my reaction is too slow. If it is someone with ulterior motives, I'm afraid it will be difficult for me to avoid this sneak attack.
Ye Piaoling came to the front, saw Qin Yan's face through the moonlight, and said in surprise, "Brother Han, haven't you slept?"
"No, I just woke up." Qin Yan yawned and said sleepyly, "Brother Ye doesn't sleep in the middle of the night. What's the matter with me?" He suddenly thought of a possibility, suddenly woke up, curled up and shrank back, and said, "Brother Ye, you don't want to... No, no, no, don't do this!"
"What are you thinking about?" Ye Piaoling looked at his reaction doubtfully, and then thought of something. His handsome face blushed slightly and shouted, "Who let you think crookedly! Also, call me Brother Ye! Forget it, I don't have time to talk to you. Get up quickly. We're leaving!"
"Ah, why are you leaving at this time..."
At this time, Liu Wanyun's soft call came from outside the door, and Ye Piao said, "We are waiting for you downstairs." Then he turned around and went out.
Qin Yan doesn't understand why Liu Wanyun chose to leave at this time. For those who want to deal with them, it is more convenient to start at night. However, he didn't think much about it. Since Liu Wanyun had made a decision, he just needed to follow.
He got dressed and walked downstairs quickly.
Liu Wanyun and Ye Piaoling each carried a burden and were waiting for him at the top of the stairs. Qin Yan saw them and was about to speak, but he saw Liu Wanyun put his finger on his lips and made a silent gesture. When Qin Yan came to him, Liu Wanyun whispered in his ear, "Don't make a sound, follow me."
After saying that, she led the two around the corridor and turned to the backyard.
The backyard is desolate, and the grassy hills are uneven, but there are still four or five guards here. All three were light-handed warriors, carefully avoiding the inspection of these guards and turning over the wall one after another.
The three people were silent and ran all the way through several streets until they came out of the boundary of Qixingzhuang. They walked more than 20 miles south and came to a desolate mountain field along the increasingly rugged road. With such a strong run, Liu Wanyun and Qin Yan were fine, but Ye Piaoling was so tired that he was out of breath and had to stop for a temporary rest.
"Where is this going?"
"I don't know. As long as you can get rid of those people!"
"Have you got rid of it now?"
"I don't know."
Qin Yan looked around. At this time, they were on a desolate hillside, surrounded by a vast wilderness, with deep peaks and ups, casting huge dark shadows in the dark night, surrounded by weeds and no human smoke. The pale moonlight covered through the clouds, giving the field a more gloomy smell, like a layer of gray veil.
In the cold atmosphere, only Ye Piaoling's deliberately suppressed gasp. Qin Yan raised his eyes and looked into the far away. When they came, there was no sign of the enemy chasing them out.
"It seems that I really got rid of them."
"Hmm." Liu Wanyun nodded and then fell silent again.
There was a dead silence nearby, and the birds that occasionally passed by seemed to feel a particularly strong gloomy resentment here, and hurriedly passed by and dared not make a sound. At this time, Ye Piaoling suddenly broke the dull atmosphere: "Hey, look over there, there seems to be a family!" He stretched out his finger to the south, and Qin Yan and the two looked at it. Sure enough, they saw a village faintly sitting in the mist in the distant mountains and fields, which happened to be covered by the shadow of Montenegro. If Ye Piaoling hadn't pointed it out, it would have been difficult to notice this place.
"Let's go and take a break!" Ye Piao looked at Liu Wanyun with his eyes. He had been really tired since he was a child. He just looked forward to finding a bed and lying down quickly.
Liu Wanyun didn't say anything. She looked at Qin Yan and asked, "Mr. Han, what do you think?"
Qin Yan was a little hesitant. It's not impossible to meet a small village in this kind of wilderness, but it's a little weird no matter how you look at it. Isn't it a trick like mountain spirit, fox demons? According to his idea, he can find a place to meditate and rest until dawn, but when he saw that Ye Piaoling almost spit out his tongue, he said sympathetically, "I'll do whatever you want."
"Then go there quickly!" Ye Piaoling grabbed Liu Wanyun's hand and dragged her down the slope.
Qin Yan walked behind them and saw that the two people in front of him were getting closer and closer to the village, and his body was about to throw himself into the shadow of the house behind the fog. Suddenly, an inappropriate feeling rose in his heart.
He paused and just wanted to make a sound to stop the two people in front of him, but the inexplicable feeling in his heart came and went quickly, and soon dissipated without a trace. He felt that there was no sufficient reason to stop it, and with Liu Wanyun's local skills, the ordinary mountain spirit fox demon was not enough for her to fight.
He laughed at himself. Since Cen Guanling's war, he has been quite suspicious, but his soul consciousness has been seriously damaged. Most of his intuitions turned out to be fallacy afterwards. Don't say it today!
He followed Liu Wanyun with brisk steps and passed through the center of the village. It was uncomfortable when the wind blew on their bodies in the middle of the winter night. They quickly walked to a big mansion. Liu Wanyun motioned the two to wait behind, and then stepped forward to knock on the door ring and whispered, "Is there anyone inside?"
The soft voice looked abrupt in the quiet night, breaking the sleeping village. After a few breaths, I only heard the rattling sound of pushing the door, and then I saw a few lights coming out of the cracks in the door, and then a faint shadow appeared, making an old voice: "Is it a guest from afar? Please come in quickly. My master has always thought that this place is too deserted, and it is rare for distinguished guests to come in. Come in quickly! Wang, go and inform the master!"
Ye Piaoling quickly walked into the courtyard excitedly and said, "Thank you, old gentleman. In fact, you don't have to disturb your master. We just want to stay here for one night, as long as there is a spare bed."
The old servant with the same old face and voice said, "The noble guest came from afar, how dare the old slave neglect it? The master has already ordered that as long as a guest comes, he will know immediately..."
At this time, I heard a low voice from the room: "Lao Zhao, where are the distinguished guests? Come on, hold the lamp, I will greet you in person! Come on, go and prepare the food. The guests must be hungry in the middle of the night!"
The three followed the reputation and saw a rich man coming with the help of two thin servants.
