"Shang Ruyi!"

Yu Wenye shouted, and his voice was deep and deep, and it immediately echoed in the mountains.

However, the surroundings were so quiet that there wasn't even a sound of wind.

Yu Wenye's eyes suddenly turned red. He wrapped the reins around his palm with one hand, held it tightly, and immediately turned the horse's head to charge up the mountain.

The good boy sitting in front of him was caught off guard and almost fell off his horse.

And just when Yu Wenye was about to ride up the mountain, Shen Wuzheng, who was standing beside him, glanced around, immediately rode forward to stop him, and said in a deep voice: "Wait a moment."

Yu Wenye was forced to stop, and when he looked up at him, there was already an unconcealable murderous intent on his face.

Although the expression on Shen Wuzheng's face was very solemn, and even when he discovered that Shang Ruyi was not at the foot of the mountain, his eyes rarely showed a hint of fierceness under the calm appearance, but at this moment, it was still okay for him to speak. Calm: "Ruyi probably didn't go up the mountain. There is only one way up the mountain. If she follows us up the mountain, we should be able to meet her when we come back."

Yu Wenye's breath was heavy and he said: "Xiao Yuansui——"

"It shouldn't be him either,"

Shen Wuzheng said and looked around again: "If he had captured Ruyi - not to mention whether he has the strength to spare now, let alone whether his people can defeat the people you left here. , No matter what, Mu Xian and the others will definitely resist. But look at it, there is not even a trace of fighting around."

"..."

Hearing this, Yu Wenye frowned and looked around.

Indeed, as Shen Wuzheng said, not only was it so quiet here that there was no sound of wind, but there were also no traces of a messy fight. Therefore, Shang Ruyi was obviously not taken away by force.

It wasn't until this moment that his breath relaxed a little.

Thinking about it, he should be able to see these things at a glance, but just now, everything was clearly visible to him, but he was completely ignorant and just rushed up the mountain regardless of everything.

But now, he couldn't think about why he was so reckless just now, he just looked up anxiously and looked around.

"But where is she?"

"..."

Shen Wuzheng also frowned and looked around.

If Shang Ruyi was not forcibly abducted by someone sent by Xiao Yuansui, why would she disappear?

At this moment, Shan Tong'er, who was sitting in Yu Wenye's arms, suddenly turned around, pointed to a road behind them and shouted: "It's her!"

Yu Wenye turned around quickly.

I saw a team of people running over from another road in a hurry, with horseshoes kicking up the dust on the road. The person who was at the forefront of the team, rushing out of the dust at the first horse, was none other than Shang Ruyi!

As soon as he saw her, Yu Wenye's heart suddenly dropped.

Immediately, the handsome face had returned to its former calmness and coldness, but there was clearly a fierceness in his eyes. It was not until he watched them getting closer that he realized that neither Shang Ruyi nor Mr. Mu was following her. Everyone has a bit of fireworks in their bodies.

Not the mundane fireworks, but the real fireworks!

There were large patches of soot on their faces, and the clothes on their bodies seemed to have traces of fire, and the followers behind them were even more disgraced and miserable.

Yu Wenye's brows immediately knitted together.

But at this time, he stopped moving. He only tightened the reins in his hands so hard that his finger bones crackled. The good boy sitting in his arms looked at his hands and then looked up. She glanced at him and shrank her neck as if she felt something.

It was Shen Wuzheng who rode up to meet him.

As soon as he saw them, a smile suddenly appeared on Shang Ruyi's gray face. He hurriedly rode over and said to Shen Wuzheng: "Brother!"

Shen Wuzheng frowned, but he couldn't bear to hurt her. He only asked in a deep voice: "Little sister, where have you been?"

"I--"

Shang Ruyi was about to speak, but she couldn't help but look behind him. When she met Yu Wenye's eyes that glared at her angrily, she was stunned for a moment, and immediately saw the good boy sitting in his arms again. I was suddenly surprised and happy.

"Good boy!?"

Shantong'er was also very happy to see her and said softly: "Husband, madam..."

"Why are you together?"

Shang Ruyi was a little confused for a while, but when he looked at Shantong'er and the two big copper hammers in his hands, he suddenly seemed to feel something again, and Shen Wuzheng said: "He is Jiu from Wanggang Village. Head of House. ”

"What?!"

Shang Ruyi was shocked. Seeing Shan Tong'er's somewhat guilty and embarrassed smile, she thought about it again and finally came to her senses: "It turns out that you - it turns out that you are going out these days. Wanggang Village?”

"Yes. I usually stay in the village."

"Then why are you back together again?"

Shen Wuzheng said: "Just now, he fought with Yu Wenye, and we brought him back - we will talk about these things when we get back. Little sister, first tell me where you went and how you ended up like this."

At this time, Shang Ruyi raised his eyes and glanced at Yu Wenye again.

No matter what conversation they had just had, or how surprised they were, Yu Wenye never said a word.

But his gaze was like a knife, nailing her body. Even if she didn't look at him, Shang Ruyi felt that her face was burning, and she felt a little uneasy in her heart.

She felt that he seemed angry.

So, she swallowed, calmed herself down, and then said softly: "We just set a fire."

"What?!"

Shen Wuzheng and Shan Tong'er were immediately shocked and looked at her in disbelief: "Did you set that fire?!"

Yu Wenye's eyes were deeper and colder.

He still said nothing, only stared at Shang Ruyi coldly, but Shang Ruyi glanced at him again - although he knew he shouldn't, but for some reason he looked away again with a guilty conscience, and then said: "Yes. , we just set a fire in the back hill of Wanggang Village, did you all see it?"

Shen Wuzheng turned his head and glanced at Yu Wenye.

Feeling that his expression was different, especially that Yu Wenye kept a sullen face, Shang Ruyi finally mustered up the courage to take the initiative and said to Yu Wenye: "What happened?"

"..."

Yu Wenye looked at her coldly and still said nothing.

The atmosphere was a little tense, but Shantong'er, who was still sitting in Yu Wenye's arms, said cautiously: "Brother Xiao asked the second young master if he sent someone to set the fire, and the second young master said no."

"..."

"The second young master also said that he has no interest in using the same technique a second time——"

As he spoke, he clearly felt that the breath on the top of his head became heavier, causing his neck to shrink even tighter and making it impossible to speak the next words.

And Shang Ruyi looked at Yu Wenye's expressionless face and suddenly felt embarrassed.

Although soldiers are cunning, the way they do things is one thing, and the upright character is another. Especially for a proud man like Yu Wenye, when facing a strong opponent like Xiao Yuansui, he

He must win not only mentally, but also psychologically. But his own self-assertion turned him into a gossipy villain.

She suddenly felt a little guilty and said: "Yes, I'm sorry, I made my own decision, and I didn't expect to get you involved."

"..."

"If there is a chance in the future, I, I will tell him clearly——"

"No need,"

Yu Wenye's eyes darkened and he interrupted her coldly: "You and I are husband and wife, we are one flesh."

"..."

"What you do, I do."

"..."

For some reason, upon hearing these words, Shang Ruyi's face became extremely hot, even higher than the temperature when he lit a fire on the grain farm at the back of Wanggang Village and the flames burned his cheeks.

Looking at her red face, somehow, the fire in Yu Wenye's heart that was almost going crazy gradually subsided a little.

But when he spoke, his voice was still cold and hard——

"But why do you want to do this?"

Shang Ruyi glanced at him, but hesitated and said nothing. Shen Wuzheng, who had already darkened his face when he heard their conversation just now, also looked at Shang Ruyi and sighed.

He said in a deep voice: "Little sister, this is too dangerous!"

Shang Ruyi was obviously prepared to deal with their accusations and even his brother's accusations from the beginning, so he said softly: "I know, but I can't just stay down there and let you go up and take risks. What's more, I thought later

After thinking about it, although you may have many ways to deal with Xiao Yuansui, if Xiao Yuansui really wants to use all the strength of Wanggang Village to kill you, it will be difficult for you to escape."

"..."

"And he must have had this idea."

Shen Wuzheng said: "Why?"

Shang Ruyi said: "Because of that——"

As she said that, she raised her hand and pointed. Shen Wuzheng and Yu Wenye, who looked gloomy, also looked in the direction of her finger. But it was the huge stone tablet outside the pavilion, with the blood-red word "Xiaoshan" on it still so dazzling.

Yu Wenye said in a deep voice: "What reason is this?"

Shang Ruyi said: "That prophecy song - because his own family declined because of that prophecy song. Later, the decline of the Zuo family and Zuo Heng's rebellion were also related to that prophecy song. Xiao Yuansui was taking Wang Gang

The first thing he did after leaving the village was to change the word 'Wanggang' on the stone tablet to 'Xiaoshan'. All this proves that he must have believed in the prophecy song."

"..."

"And what he cares about most is probably that sentence - the phoenix cries on the side of the Xiaoshan Mountain."

Shen Wuzheng's eyes flashed slightly.

Yu Wenye said: "So?"

"so,"

Shang Ruyi said: "He will definitely not allow you to appear in the Xiaoshan village he commands, let alone weaken his strength and defeat the people in the village before leaving alive."

"..."

"Because, that is the side of Fengming Xiaoshan."

"..."

Yu Wenye was silent for a while and said coldly: "That's nonsense."

Shang Ruyi said: "I know you don't believe in gods and Buddhas, nor do you believe in any prophecies in this world, but just because you don't believe it doesn't mean that others don't believe it. Others will not only believe it, but they will also take action against you because they believe in these omens."

"..."

This time, Yu Wenye said nothing.

But after being silent for a long time, he suddenly said: "Mr. Mu, you and your people will receive eighty military sticks upon your return and will be fined for one year."
