general follow me

Chapter 81 Cunning

"I will follow you secretly. If there is an order, just mention it." Lu Siyi who was on the side said.

"Oh, I forgot to introduce you, this is my Wujiao National Teacher, Lu..." I was about to say it, but was interrupted by Lu Siyi.

"Lu San has met the three of you, so you are safe here." Lu Siyi saluted.

"It turned out to be the third master. I have admired him for a long time." Liu Ran also returned a gift.

"Sit down... I wonder when you plan to leave for the Sea of ​​Clouds Desert?" Xiang Hai asked.

"Since we have reached an agreement with you, the king, we can't delay. We will leave in about one or two days." Liu Ran replied.

"Well, it's better to be early, so as not to have long nights and dreams... Now that the matter has been resolved, let's eat first, and everyone should not be as restrained as they were at the beginning."

"Yes."

After the meal, Lu Siyi walked out first, followed by Liu Ran and Shi Yu.

"Sir..." Seeing that Lu Siyi was about to leave, Shi Yu immediately called to stop him.

Lu Siyi stopped and looked back, "What's the matter?"

"Thank you sir for taking care of me a few days ago, it saved us a lot of trouble." Shi Yu bowed and thanked.

"No need," Lu Siyi smiled, "I said before, it's too early to say thanks."

"I didn't know that the third master was a national teacher earlier, so I offended him." Liu Ran also apologized.

"You didn't offend me at all, so you don't have to apologize to me." Lu Siyi said slowly, "King Xiu has been away for three days, as far as I know, they still want to go to Yuesang Palace to save King Bazhe, Do you have any countermeasures?"

"He won't go to rescue King Bader first."

"Why?" Shi Yu and Lu Siyi asked in surprise.

"He will do it now, and he will do so quietly. If the matter of saving Bazhe is too big, he will startle the snake. Besides, Bazhe is not as important as the treasure." Liu Ran sighed, "Everything will be based on my own interests."

"Indeed," Lu Siyi nodded in agreement, and happened to see Xiang Hai and Qin Shu coming out together, "Your Majesty, Lord Qin."

"National Teacher," Qin Shu said politely, "It's getting late today, so let's stay in the capital to rest now, and it won't be too late to go back tomorrow morning."

"No, your majesty has been out for too long, and no one will notice when you go back at night. Besides, if you go back earlier, you should prepare early. After all, you will leave in two or three days." Lu Siyi declined.

"So, no matter, safe journey." Qin Shu bowed, and Liu Ran and Shi Yu followed suit.

Xiang Hai nodded, Lu Siyi returned the salute, and walked out.

Before leaving, Xiang Hai looked at Qin Shu reluctantly.Qin Shu smiled and said, "I will remember."

Xiang Hai was stunned for a moment, and then smiled in relief.

"Remember what?" Liu Ran couldn't help but curiously asked Qin Shu beside her.

"It's nothing," Qin Shu smiled, "it's just an agreement. Since today's matter is successfully concluded, then Qin Shu will take his leave first."

"Master Qin, go slowly."

Qin Shu saluted and walked out slowly.

Looking at Qin Shu's back, Liu Ran sighed, "I'm going to the Sea of ​​Clouds Desert, I really can't bear to part with the bustling scenery here..."

After going to the Cloud Sea Desert, a bloody battle is about to start.

"Little dye..."

"Ah?" Liu Ran turned her head, saw Shi Yu looking at him with a faint smile, stretched out her hand and said,

"Come with me."

"what?"

Shi Yu didn't say a word, and took him by the hand slowly to the river, where he bought two long lanterns from the peddler.

"Is there any pen and ink?" Shi Yu asked.

"Yes!" The peddler smiled, found a pen from the stall and handed it over, "Young master, write."

Shi Yu frowned slightly, looked at the brush with an indescribable expression, but still twirled it lightly with his hands, dipped some ink, and began to write on the lantern.

No matter how bad the brush is, it still can't hide the affection hidden between the lines.

The white head is holding hands, and the time is inseparable, and the lovesickness is deep in the bone, and I hope you will know.

Liu Ran was taken aback by reading a lantern and half a line of poetry, "You... you, you actually saw it at that time?!"

When you put Kongming lanterns in the desert, didn't you cover them up? !

"Let's go." Shi Yu smiled and avoided answering Liu Ran's question.

Liu Ran took it blankly, but suddenly realized, "No, you haven't told me yet, how did you know this poem?"

"You let it go first, let it go, I'll tell you." Shi Yu said with a smile.

"Really?" Liu Ran asked suspiciously.

"The sentences are true."

"Okay." Liu Ran said briskly.

Two bright lights rise slowly, blending with the stars in the night, carrying the affection of Shi Yu, floating into the distance.

"You wrote it for me last time, but this time it's me." Shi Yu said.

Liu Ran turned her head away, Shi Yu's silhouette was a little hazy in the dark night, there seemed to be countless affections in her eyes, she just looked at him silently, as if she could never see enough.

"Will……"

"Last time you left after setting off the lamp in the desert. When I went to inspect the desert the next day, I found a lamp on a dead tree. At first I didn't know it was yours, until...until I When I saw your words, I knew it was the lantern you put

. "

Liu Ran didn't know what to say, but was held by Shi Yu's hand, and the wide sleeves covered the intimacy between the two, avoiding the prying eyes of passers-by.

"Let's go, after today, it will be a tough battle."

"Well...thank you."

Shi Yu didn't speak, just clenched his hands tightly, covering Liu Ran's somewhat cold hands.

The sea of ​​clouds desert is still so dry.Qi Jin bypassed Shouyue Pass in Suizhou and walked deep into the desert.There are ruins there, the ruins of an ancient city, because of the wind and sand erosion, it has become beyond recognition, and the ruins of the walls have a different meaning.

In the ancient city, it was Xinlangqi who had already arrived.Not far from the ancient city, there is a water source, which is the exit of the palace where he escaped with Liu Ran last time.However, if you want to go to a deeper palace, you still have to enter from here.

"My lord." Xin Langqi knelt on one knee and saluted.

"Excuse me," Qi Jin handed the horse to the person behind him and tied it, and walked forward, "Is there anyone at Shouyue Pass? How is Yuesang's situation?"

"Emperor Daqi sent a team of shadow guards to guard the Moon Gate, and they patrol the desert every day." Xin Langqi said truthfully, "Right now, King Shengyue seems to have heard something, and he has stepped up his vigilance."

"What else can there be rumors about? It's another trick of my good brother. However, I'm curious, how do they know that my king is coming to the Sea of ​​Clouds Desert?"

"Maybe it's to prevent you, my lord, from saving King Bazhe... I observed for a while, and the place they patrolled happened to be very close to Yuesang." Xin Langqi expressed his opinion.

"That's it... Forget it, what's the matter, wait until the king finds the treasure first!" Qi Jin was a little impatient.

"My lord..." Xin Langqi was a little hesitant, faltering, as if he wanted to ask something.

"What's the matter? If you have something to say, just say it." Qi Jin glanced at Xin Langqi.

"...Your Majesty! You once promised your subordinates that you would help Xin Langqi rescue King Ba Zhe, and now you have arrived at Shouyue Pass, approaching Yuesang..." Xin Langqi knelt down on one knee.

Qi Jin smiled, patted Xin Langqi on the shoulder and said, "I know that you are eager to save King Bazhe, but you have also seen the current situation... Don't worry, I will never go back on what I promised. You see, this king agreed to Wu Jiao to come to find the treasure, so why not come here?...We can discuss this matter later, and settle the matter in front of us first, how about it?"

"...Okay, my subordinates will do their best to help the prince complete his grand plan!" Xin Langqi had no choice but to trust Qi Jin at this moment.

Qi Jin nodded in satisfaction, "Well... by the way, when are we going to the underground palace?"

"The route has been planned, and we can leave tomorrow. It's all up to the prince's decision."

"Then let's do it tomorrow! Save the night and dreams..." Qi Jin waved his hand.

"Yes!"

Xin Langqi said respectfully, and took Qi Jin to the place that had been packed for Qi Jin to rest alone.

"Safe travels."

After Qin Shu left Liudu City, Liu Ran and the others separated, exhorting.

"Well, Mr. Qin, take care. It's a long journey back to Beijing this time, so Mr. Qin is also careful along the way." Liu Ran said.

"I have nothing to do when I arrive, and I can enjoy the mountains and scenery along the way, but my lord and the general have spared no effort to rush to Shouyue Pass for me. Once I go, I am afraid it will be a fierce battle." Qin Shu smiled, and then turned into Worried, "You two, Da Qi's safety depends on you to protect it."

"Don't dare, I'm just trying my best." Shi Yu replied.

"Okay, I won't waste your time anymore, just leave now."

"Bon Voyage."

After saluting each other, Qin Shu left in dust.

"Let's go." Shi Yu said.

"En." Liu Ran nodded, turned the direction of the horse, took a deep breath, and walked forward.

The journey was safe and sound, but within a few days they had arrived near Shouyue Pass, but the closer it got, the more frightened Liu Ran felt.

The haze of that rainy night, covered a certain place in his heart, lingering.

"What's the matter? Have you been restless these days?" Shi Yu asked with concern.

"It's nothing..." Liu Ran suddenly noticed that Shi Yu stopped and didn't come forward, so she asked, "Why don't you keep going? It's only a town away from Shouyue Pass."

"Xiu Wang is too cunning, let's stop here, don't get too close, or he will be alarmed, and all plans will be disrupted." Shi Yu escorted Liu Ran to the inn.

"Hmm... that's fine..." Liu Ran nodded, "How's the situation at Shouyue Pass?"

"Go ahead and talk about it."

Shi Yu smiled, which made Liu Ran feel a little mysterious.

"My lord!" A familiar voice came from behind.

Liu Ran turned around, and was surprised to find that Zhang Wei ran over with a smile, followed by Xiao San'er and Li Shui behind him.

"My lord," Li Shui also smiled.

"Zhang Wei?! Li Shui?! And Xiaosan?! Why are you here?!" Liu Ran was surprised.

"We reported it to Lord Chen'an with a letter from Lord Chen'an." Li Shui explained.

"Yes, yes." Zhang Wei nodded.

"That's right, Li Shui, you actually went to join the army, that's really good..." Liu Ran nodded gratifiedly, "There's also Xiao Saner, who I haven't seen for a long time, and who has grown so tall..."

Xiao San'er scratched his head and smiled a little embarrassedly.

"About Shouyue Pass, let's talk after you come in..." Shi Yu opened the door and said.

"it is good!"
