(1/2)

"Now, we are all rushing to Longxi. Even if we don't want to, something big must have happened there!"

My mood also sank.

Indeed, as he said, so many people who are in close contact gather together in one place, just like a mountain, and clouds will naturally gather on the top of the mountain. If so many people gather in Longxi, that place will naturally become the focus of everyone's attention, and something will inevitably happen.

I hesitated: "Then-"

Looking at my worried look, he relaxed again and said softly: "But don't worry too much. There is a road in front of the mountain when the car arrives, not to mention that so many people have so many ways."

Although his words were gentle, they gave people a sense of down-to-earth and powerfulness. I looked into his eyes and nodded gently.

He said again, "By the way, what special happened to you when you went out today?"

"Why do you ask that?"

"Because I find it a little strange," he said. "Miaoyan came back tonight and was willing to enter my room."

“…”

"If it were before, he would have been far away from me and my room."

“…”

Actually, nothing special happened today, but I didn’t think it was too abrupt for Miaoyan’s changes, but I just didn’t know how to explain them to him. I just smiled faintly: “Isn’t this great?”

"Of course," he said seriously: "I really don't want her to leave any bad shadows in her heart because of the two of us, and I don't want her to keep a stalemate with us like this."

"Miaoyan is actually very sensible, but she is probably like me. If she can't figure out some things, no matter how others force her, it will be useless. However, I believe she will slowly understand and will slowly start to accept them."

"Um."

He said, "Okay, it's getting late. You've been busy all day and it's really time to go back and rest. You'll have to get off early tomorrow morning!"

I nodded and told him to rest earlier and not to be tired, then turned around and left his room.

After I went out, I looked at the other side. The lights in Miaoyan's room had gone out, and I thought I should have fallen asleep; while Pei Yuanhao's room was covered with a door, and he could see the flashing candlelight inside through the crack of the door.

Although he gave us a break earlier, it might be a night for him to fall asleep.

No one knows what kind of people and things they will encounter when they leave Fengxiang and walk northwest. If they can successfully send the coffin of the concubine into the imperial tomb and find Nangong Lizhu smoothly, this is the luckiest result; but I know that things cannot be that simple. Xie Feng, who escaped from prison, the lost armor of the Hu family, and the mysterious team sent by Pei Yuanhao from Xi'an Prefecture, what are the inextricable connections and what unknown results will be caused, no one can predict.

Looking at the faint lights coming out of his room, I seemed to hear a heavy sigh. I couldn't help but sigh in my heart and turned back to my room.



This night was particularly long.

Because I experienced so many things on this day, I was very tired and fell asleep after a while. I even had a very long and chaotic dream.

In my dream, I really saw the deserted Gobi Desert, and heard the sound of the wind like a roar of a wild beast in my ears. The yellow sand in the sky made me feel as if I were in a ghost town. Gradually, I realized that the whistling sound in the wind that I heard in my ears was not the roar of a wild beast, but someone was shouting, shouting, and roaring at the top of my lungs.

I suddenly woke up from my dream.

As soon as I opened my eyes, I saw a trace of light. The thin quilt had been kicked out of the bed by myself, but I was still sweating all over my sleep, and even my forehead and cheeks were covered in sweat.

What just now was a dream?

I looked around hesitantly, the simple and sandy room, which made me find a little comfort in reality. I reached out to wipe the sweat on my face, and then I let out a long sigh of relief.

Outside the door, a maid asked softly: "Miss Yan has already gotten up?"

I took a breath, then got up from the bed, and replied, "Come in."

Because of the dream, I was already getting up very late. When I went out, everyone was ready to wait for me. I couldn't help but blush. Miaoyan came over and hugged my arm very considerately and said softly: "My mother's face looks so ugly. Didn't she sleep well last night? Did she be too tired yesterday?"

I forced a smile and said, "Maybe it is."

"Then you will be in a carriage with me later. Will you sleep well on me? I will hold my mother and never let you bump into it."

The last bit of fear left in the dream was dispelled by my daughter's gentle words. I laughed softly and said, "Okay."

Qinghan on the other side was already standing next to the carriage. Seeing us like this, he smiled, then turned around and took the carriage. Pei Yuanhao was already sitting in the carriage. At this time, he put down the curtain and only said one sentence from it: "Let's go."

I hurriedly took Miaoyan to the carriage, and with the order in front, our convoy began to slowly drive forward.

After the convoy left Fengxiang, the road became difficult to walk.

The road is flat, and there will not be rugged curves for a long time. When you lift the curtains, you can see the scenery outside becoming more and more desolate every day, but it feels like the road is connected to the sky. However, there are flames burning on such a road.

The weather is getting hotter and hotter. After walking for about a month, no matter whether we sit in the carriage or walk out to breathe, we feel like we are in a big stove, with the hot sunlight being unavoidable and almost lit up people's hair. In this case, we can only drink water continuously.

In this case, people can no longer be decent.

Miaoyan and I were sitting in the carriage, but because there were almost no other people walking on the road, all the people around us walking and talking were obvious, and we could often hear people vomiting, fainting, and panic caused. In this way, the speed of walking became much slower.

This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! On this day, the carriage walked for a while and finally stopped in a rare green forest. I immediately lay down from the carriage with Miaoyan, almost exhausted. On the other hand, Qinghan got off the carriage, his face was as pale as a piece of paper. After he got off, he ran to the tree on the side and vomited.

I was startled and hurried over. As if he heard my footsteps, he waved his hand at me backwards and told me not to get closer.

Yao Lao walked over, helped him gently pat his back, and asked someone to rinse his mouth with water, then helped him to a shaded place in the forest to sit and rest. When I walked over, I saw him sweating all over his head. Although he was sitting, he was still twitching slightly. I squatted down and said softly, "Is it better?"

He then barely opened his eyes, with almost no sense in his eyes, and he gasped and said, "It's okay."

I looked up at Yao Lao and he said, "It's just a little heatstroke, it's okay."

I just realized that there were many soldiers who had heatstroke along the way, and they were all in this situation. Fortunately, Pei Yuanhao and the others were prepared and brought a lot of medicine with them. In addition, the medicine was also there. Although the heatstroke was severe, no one died.

At this time, a sound of footsteps came from the side. When she turned around, Pei Yuanhao walked towards this side with several servants. When Qinghan saw him coming, she immediately struggled to get up. Pei Yuanhao waved his hand: "Forget it, why are you still getting up at this time?"

I hurriedly reached out and pressed him down on his shoulder and sat down.

Pei Yuanhao frowned and looked at his face: "You are too, it's really useless."

Qinghan smiled faintly: "I'll let Your Majesty laugh at me."

I looked up at Pei Yuanhao and thought to myself that it is common for people to get heatstroke in such hot weather. Why do you say that people are useless? Don't you?

It seems that there is really not.

Until now, he is still decent, with his clothes meticulous and meticulous, and he does not look uncomfortable with heatstroke.

When he met my gaze, he said, "You are okay?"

I coughed lightly: "I have been to such a place before, so it's okay."

He asked me the wonderful words around me again: "Where are you?"

"My son is fine."

He looked at us for a while and turned around and ordered his servants: "Get some more water."

The attendant immediately went to the carriage behind and brought two leather bags over, which were filled with water. Pei Yuanhao asked him to hand over the leather bag to Qinghan, and then said, "Drink more water."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Miaoyan was standing next to me holding my hand, but suddenly pointed to the side and said, "Hey, what is that?"

Everyone followed the direction of her finger and saw that it was the far road that was almost on fire in the sun. A group of people faintly walked over. Seeing them crookedly, they thought the ground was too hot, so they looked at the figures a little distorted, but the people fell down one by one after another after walking for a while.

Pei Yuanhao immediately ordered someone to go over.

After a while, the servants brought the people over, and it turned out to be a caravan back to the army.

There were a total of more than a dozen people, holding more than a dozen horses. There were not many people, but there were many things. The goods were pulled by horses, but the people did not ride horses. They were all dehydrated and exhausted. Pei Yuanhao immediately asked the servant to bring some water over again. The elder Yao filled them with medicine one by one and twisted their key acupoints. Finally, a few of them woke up.

The leader immediately came over with a few companions to thank him.

However, as soon as he spoke, everyone was stunned.

What these people said seemed to be their own language. We couldn't understand at all. We just looked at the leader kneeling on the ground and said a lot of words. I frowned next to me - I couldn't even understand the language, so how could I go out to do business?

At this time, Chabixing walked up from behind and said, "Their translator is not awake yet."

We all turned around and looked at him.

I said in surprise: "Do you know what he is talking about?"

He nodded.

Unexpectedly, he learned so extensively that he even knew the language of Huizi.

Chabixing also spoke their language to the man. When those people saw that there was someone who could communicate with them, they were even more excited. They spoke and gestured. Chabixing turned to Pei Yuanhao and said, "They are thanking the emperor for their holy grace."

Pei Yuanhao waved his hand lightly: "Ask where they came from."

After some exchanges between the two sides, Chabixing said: "They came in from outside Yumen Pass and have been in the tea business for more than ten years."

Pei Yuanhao frowned: "Since he has been in the tea business for more than ten years, how could he know that the water source on this road is difficult to find, but he still doesn't bring enough water?"

I looked at him in surprise.

Unexpectedly, his mind was so meticulous. Indeed, since he had been walking on this road for more than ten years, he should know the importance of water. Just now, the servant unloaded the luggage they brought and found that there was no water at all. This was deadly enough!

Chabixing turned around and asked again.

At this moment, the people were even more excited. Everyone rushed to talk. I was so excited that I was so angry that Chabixing was very calm. He kept nodding, and his brows slowly tightened.

I asked, "What the hell is going on?"

He turned his head and said to us: "They were lost because of the wind and sand, and they deviated from the main road, and they ended up--"

He said this and paused.

I asked hurriedly, "Where are you?"
