you got on my tail

Cang Hua was tall and slender, and his face was even more handsome. When he walked on the road, even though the surroundings were messy, there were still people looking out.

Bai Xuehe nestled in Canghua's arms, ignoring other people's gazes, he seemed really tired, he didn't even bother to smile.

Cang Hua quickly walked to the gate of Baifu, and kicked the door with a "bang", which scared Bai Fu who was holding a sickle half to death.

"Master?" Bai Fu was surprised, "This is..."

"never mind!"

Cang Hua responded with a short sentence, rushed into the inner room with Bai Xuehe in his arms, and slowly put him on the bed. The clothes inside were soaked in cold sweat.

"What's the matter with you?" Cang Hua frowned, and stroked his back. Seeing Bai Xuehe's silence, he said with some anger: "You tell me to take care of you, I won't do anything, but now you If you are sick and uncomfortable, don’t you want me to take care of it?”

"I'm not sick." Bai Xuehe breathed a sigh of relief, and explained slowly with a smile, "I think it should be the stamina of the pain relief ointment, after all, it's not so easy to quit..."

"But why were you okay before?" Cang Hua asked anxiously: "How can I remember, you haven't used that cigarette for a long time, even though I can't tell, the smell can still be distinguished."

"I don't know either." He asked like this, Bai Xuehe couldn't answer, and tried to recall after a while, "I've been with other people these days, and I haven't eaten or drank anything else, let alone cigarette cream. "

"Is it because of what happened in the Yan Palace that day?" Cang Hua felt distressed and eagerly guessed: "You went to the Yan Palace to drive those people away that day, and you also inhaled the smoke."

"No." Bai Xuehe still had a smile on his face, with the expression of "there must be a way for the car to reach the mountain", and he replied without any sadness, "How can Xitong ointment be so addictive."

"What's going on?" Cang Hua hugged him, seeing that he was sweating and shaking, he didn't know whether to take off his clothes or wrap them up tightly, but Bai Xuehe took off his heavy coat and lay down in his middle clothes.

When he took off his coat with a heavy breath, he realized that there was something in the placket. It was a simple letter with Fu Jiying's vigorous and domineering small letters on it, and a prescription for medicine.

Bai Xuehe never thought that he would write it with his own handwriting, so he gave a inexplicable smile and threw the prescription beside the pillow, imperial doctor?He thinks that pain relief ointment is something, if he wants to get rid of it, he has to endure it, any medicinal materials and famous doctors are useless.

"What is that?" Cang Hua leaned forward, stretched out his hand to explore, and simply lay down beside Bai Xuehe.

"The prescription the emperor gave me is for smoking cessation." Bai Xuehe replied, "It's useless, so don't read it."

"Maybe it will work." Cang Hua refused to accept, shaking with the prescription in his hand, "Otherwise, how could the doctor write it down."

"Maybe he found out how to make Xitong ointment." Bai Xuehe replied with a smile, got up suddenly, seemed to think of something, he stretched out his toe and kicked Canghua, "Is the cake that Xiaowei brought that day still there?"

"If you want to eat, I'll make it for you. How long has she been able to bring it?" Cang Hua puffed up his face, but still ran to the cabinet obediently, "I don't remember throwing it away..."

Sure enough, he still found the basket of snacks. It had been put there for a long time and should be thrown away, but there were a lot of snacks and snacks in Baixuehe's house, and they were mixed together for a while, so he forgot to clean them up.

Although it was winter, there was always a charcoal basin burning in the house. It was strange to say that the basket of cakes had been in the cabinet for a long time, but it didn't look corrupt.

"There's something in this cake." Bai Xuehe smelled the scent, and suddenly laughed when the truth came to light, and sighed, "I've eaten a lot, it's like eating tobacco cream, and it will naturally flare up."

"I'll go find Xiaowei!" Cang Hua got up angrily, he still remembered that Xiaowei was a kind girl.

"No need." Bai Xuehe shook his head and took his hand.

"You can't find her?" This time, Cang Hua was really angry, "It's not murder to find her, what does it have to do with the prince."

"Looking for her has nothing to do with the lord, it is indeed murder." Bai Xuehe smiled helplessly, "We pretend not to know that Xiaowei can still live, if we look for her, she will die."

Cang Hua was stunned, suddenly understood, and then took a deep breath.

"Then who did these things?" Cang Hua asked, seeing Bai Xuehe smiling but not saying a word.

After a while, he suddenly realized, "Is it possible that you know who it is...?"

"I don't know." Bai Xuehe immediately shook his head, still smiling for thousands of years, "It doesn't matter who did it, now I have ten days to rest, you said you want to take me to a far away place, why don't we go Bar."

"You should rest more." Cang Hua probed his forehead and tucked him in a thick quilt, "I want to go to many places, how can I do it in ten days."

"We can go for a long time." Bai Xuehe rolled his eyes and smiled slyly, "Maybe, we can never come back."

Cang Hua suddenly opened his mouth wide, his face full of surprise, just about to ask, when he heard a knock on the door outside, he quickly turned around, protecting Bai Xuehe behind his back.

Not long after the knock on the door, the door was pushed open impatiently, but a chubby child was standing at the door with a big package on his back, looking out.

The child raised his head, his face was chubby, he looked no more than five or six years old, his eyes were round, and he was pierced with two small hairpins. He was very cute, but his eyes were blue and gray, and he looked different from ordinary people.

"Fox?" Cang Hua frowned to distinguish, and suddenly said: "Bai Tuantuan?!"

"How do you know, what's my name?" The little fox didn't recognize that it was a black egg snake, tilted his head and asked, and after a while, he ran to Bai Xuehe's side and pulled his quilt, "Master Bai , are you sick?"

"This is for you from my mother!" As he said, the little fox struggled to untie the big package and opened it, and tiptoed to hand something over, "Mother said, I must give it to you."

Bai Xuehe took it curiously, then was startled suddenly, and asked, "Where did your mother go?"

"She said she has something to do." The little fox thought about it, and said in a childish voice, "Let me go back to the forest and wait for her, but I want to wait here."

"En." Bai Xuehe nodded, stroking the scroll in his hand, it was not something else, but a will that had been missing all along.

"Don't wait for her."

Holding the suspicious will in his hand, Bai Xuehe smiled calmly, then lowered his head and patted the little fox's head, "You have to be careful."

……

On the outskirts of the capital, the mass graves are not popular at all.

Bai Xuehe's guess was right, Yu Yan handed over the will to him, and indeed she has no plan to go back.

At this moment, she was wearing black clothes, supporting Xu Yan to stagger forward step by step, a black horse followed behind them, and the horse was also covered with patches of blood.

Xu Yan pressed his arm, and there was still half a broken arrow on it, and the wound kept gushing out blood.

"I'm not, I told you not to come out?" Xu Yan's voice panted, and blood marks were carved on his sharp cheeks. He looked around and found that there seemed to be no pursuers, so he pulled Yu Yan to sit down and said in a low voice : "Take a break."

"Okay." Yu Yan sat down, ready to let Xu Yan's head rest on her shoulder, Xu Yan grinned, and instead pulled Yu Yan into her arms, "It's okay, I'm not like this!"

"I really didn't expect that in order to kill me, the emperor even planned the king of Yan." He didn't expect that he would die in a conspiracy instead of a battlefield all his life, so he used the moonlight to sigh, "I didn't even expect that in the end I stayed You are the only one beside me."

"You are a husband-in-law, so there is nothing wrong with your wife staying with him." Yu Yan lay peacefully in his arms, raising her hand to play with his loose hair.

"Fortunately, King Yu is fine, but I really didn't expect him to be such a brain." Xu Yan frowned and gritted his teeth, and pulled out the broken arrow. He looked at the forked road in front of him, and suddenly realized something, staring at the moonlight Said: "Pei'er, what about the will?"

"I gave it to Bai Xuehe."

"what?!"

Before Yu Yan finished speaking, Xu Yan got up suddenly. He spread his five fingers like a mountain, and firmly grasped Yu Yan's neck. Her knuckles were rattling.

The big tree trembled when it was hit, dead leaves and twigs fell like rain, and the clear moonlight streamed on Yu Yan's face, allowing Xu Yan, whose vision was blurred by blood, to gradually see her face clearly.

It was not Peier's face at all, but it was very familiar to him. Her facial features were gentle and serene, her eyes were blue-gray, her hair was the same color, her skin was like porcelain, without any blemishes, just like it was more than 30 years ago.

Xu Yan was silent, let go of his hand and took a few steps back, and suddenly started laughing, with an expression of fear or happiness on his face, "So it was you?! That's why you asked me to send troops, forced me to rebel, and gave the imperial decree to Bai Xuehe, are you To take revenge on me and let me die?"

"No." Yu Yan shook her head, fell silent for a moment, her expression was half a smile but not a smile, "My husband, I have been helping you all the time, you let me stay in the desert, and I have been waiting for you for 30 years, and then to help you , and even killed people, if it wasn’t for Mr. Bai’s life, he would have been killed by me in the mine long ago.”

Xu Yan was silent again, and suddenly understood everything. He didn't lead Bai Xuehe to the mine accident, and it was even more impossible for Yu Yan to know who he was, whether this stupid fox who was tricked by him in the desert was being used by others to become a... It has become the blade that kills oneself.

He killed people like hemp, and never believed in heaven and hell. Only today did he know that there is retribution in the world.

The cold moon was all over the sky, and Xu Yan no longer had any affection in his heart. He sneered and asked, "You help me? Then why did you give the will to Bai Xuehe and not give me a way out."

"I don't know what it is." Yu Yan explained, "I only know that it is very important. You need it very much, Mr. Xianggong, and Bai Xuehe is the enemy of Mr. Xiang."

Xu Yan was so angry that she vomited blood, "So?"

"I suddenly realized today that I am stupid, and it is useless to try my best to help my husband." Yuyan half-closed her eyes, half-smiling, and her eyes were empty, "That's why I gave that thing to Bai Xuehe. , Xianggong can no longer be a great general, we run away together, and we have to go back to Mobei, isn't it just staying together!"

After finishing speaking, she raised her face, stretched out her hand, and showed a sweet smile with great anticipation for the future.

Xu Yan was stunned, then suddenly reached out, held her, then pulled her into his arms, stroked her hair repeatedly, and Yu Yan wept with a smile until her shoulders twitched.

"Msanggong will go back with you." Xu Yan's voice was gentle, coaxing her like a child, "But someone will come here at any time, we need to escape first, are you right?"

"Yeah." Yu Yan nodded, wiped away her tears and pulled him, "Let's go now."

"If we walk together, we will definitely be discovered. It's better to separate." Xu Yan looked at the fork in the road ahead, turned around with her arms around her shoulders, and pointed forward with her arm, "Mistress, there are two roads here. If we If you go separately, it will be more difficult for them to find, and you can become like Pei Er, and you can also become like me, so that those fools can't see it."

"What Xianggong said makes sense." Yu Yan nodded obediently, "Then I will leave with Xianggong, and we will meet at a certain place."

"There is a small village outside the city called Fanglin Village." Xu Yan stretched out his hand to guide her in the void, "There is a big pagoda tree at the gate of the village, you go first on horseback, run over, and wait under the big pagoda tree. Look at me, Xianggong will walk slower, but will try to run as fast as possible."

"I got it, don't worry, Mr. Yu." Yuyan nodded, and instantly changed into Xu Yan's appearance, she giggled as she tugged at the shrunken dress, "Look, Mrs., this dress has shrunk, how funny."

"Let's go, or it will be too late." Xu Yan didn't know why she suddenly became talkative, and hurriedly urged her to get on the horse, Yu Yan gave Xu Yan one last look, got up and jumped on the horse.

"Let's go!"

Xu Yan slapped the horse's neck hard. The black horse he had lived and died with for many years knew this signal. It neighed a long time, which was extremely ear-piercing in the silent night sky. Then it picked up Yu Yan and galloped forward along the westward road.

Xu Yan looked at the back of the black horse, but did not go the other way. He clutched his wound and retreated into the woods, quietly waiting for the pursuers to pass by.

The man who chased him was Fu Jijue, King of Yan. Xu Yan had trained troops with him near here, so he found that the road to the east had complicated terrain and was very suitable for escaping and hiding. Go - follow the westward road.

King Yu is still alive, so is the Queen Mother, King Yan hasn't fought for a long time, and Xun Luo has only become a monk halfway through. Those Saibei army horses who followed him through life and death may not necessarily listen to them. As long as he can go there alive, maybe someone will take him in.

As for that fox demon.

Of course Xu Yan didn't take it to heart, he simply bandaged his wound and sat down, but after a while, a group of people and horses came rushing towards the west road decisively under the command of the tall commander.

Sure enough, only by knowing yourself and the enemy can you win all battles.

Xu Yan smiled, shook the dust off his body, and stood up again like a general.

"General Xu."

Before he took a step forward, a gentle and deep voice sounded, and Xu Yan froze for an instant. After a long time, he turned around with difficulty and stared at the tall man in front of him.

Yan Wang Fu Jijue was not wearing a military uniform. He shook the silver-gray cloak of Xiulong, revealing his face from the gray fox fur, with a gentle and harmless smile on his face. With weapons, there are no soldiers behind him.

Xu Yan remembered that the emperor was suspicious of King Yan. Although he spared his life, he ordered him to abolish his martial arts. Therefore, even if he still has martial arts, he should have no internal strength, at least unable to compete with himself.

"His Royal Highness." So Xu Yan stepped back frankly, then knelt down on both knees, groped the ground with his fingertips with his right hand, and slowly reached for the half arrow in front, "I implore Your Highness, since you and I have been stationed together For the sake of the Great Wall, let me live."

Fu Jijue just smiled and remained silent. Xu Yan didn't understand his smile, but felt an inexplicable aura of fear for no reason. He gritted his teeth and said, "Your Highness, you should know that the emperor's heart is as hard as iron. How did he treat the waste at that time?" How did the prince's family abolish your martial arts and put you under house arrest? Even if you are loyal and won't let me go today, he will not always trust you!"

Fu Jijue remained silent, raised his hand wearing only black leather gloves, and slowly took out a dart from his cuff. Xu Yan's eyes were firmly fixed on it, and after a while he said in surprise: "This is Yue Shantang's hidden weapon! King Yu Master Yue Shantang, you want to blame him! So it's all..."

"You are right. I want the emperor to think that it was King Yu who killed you." Fu Jijue wanted to hear him finish, but felt that it was too long-winded, so he interrupted him to reply slowly, and raised his hand after explaining. Dart smiled, "Seeing that we have worked together, the general has also helped me a lot, so I will let General Xu die more happily."

"Thank you, my lord!"

Xu Yan's eyes turned and he got up quickly, holding a sharp stone in his hand, he raised his hand to approach Fu Jijue's life gate, he shot very quickly, but Fu Jijue, who should have been powerless to fight back, has already raised his hand, clamping the broken arrow like a ghost , obviously only used two fingers, but it made Xu Yan, who had profound skills, unable to move.

Fu Jijue smiled gently and hit his collarbone with a dart.

"It's impossible!" Xu Yan was surprised. Even the former Fu Jijue couldn't have such skill. He stared closely at Fu Jijue's eyes, only to find that there was a deep purple light flowing inside, "You are, what kind of monster!"

"I'm not a monster." Fu Jijue raised his hand and pressed the cold blade into his flesh little by little, watching the blood profusely with satisfaction, until Xu Yan struggled for a long time and had only his last breath left before he was ready to answer with some regret.

"I am the demon god, the leader of the demon world." After saying these words, Xu Yan's throat stopped trembling, and it seemed that he was only one point away from life and death. Subject, you have harmed my people, how could I let you go."

After finishing speaking, he gracefully closed his hands and left the darts on Xu Yan's body. Xu Yan's tall body fell to the ground with a bang, then he stretched out his sleeves, and several darts were drawn from the air, nailing Xu Yan's body one by one, leaving dozens of Xuedong, indeed, looked like he was being chased and killed by a hidden weapon.

Fu Jijue took off the glove and handed it back. Li Ye, who was hiding in the darkness, took it, and a blue-gray fox fire lit up, turning the tough animal skin into ashes.

"Then, what about Yu Yan?" Li Ye hesitated for a while and asked in a low voice.

"Let her go." Fu Jijue replied calmly, and Li Ye nodded, seeming to let out a long breath.

"Wait, there is one more thing." Fu Jijue stared down at Xu Yan's body, with deep doubts in his eyes, "Where did the will go? Xu Yan is here, and King Yu and Xu Lingxiao were also arrested by me. Legacy."

"Is there any problem with this decree?" Li Ye smiled, reaching out to rub his eyebrows, "You said before, although this decree seems to be genuine, but the emperor's grandson mentioned in the decree, Maybe it's long gone."

"Perhaps." Fu Jijue sighed, showing a gentle and honest expression again, the purple light in his eyes was also covered by thick black brown, he patted Li Ye's shoulder with a smile, and said with a gentle smile: "Let's go back."

"Look at this will, is there something wrong?" In another place, Bai Xuehe sat in Cang Hua's arms, carefully spreading out the will, "I always feel a little strange."

"I don't understand." Cang Hua didn't care about the imperial decree, but only cared about Bai Xuehe, from time to time, he reached out his hand to brush the broken hair around his ear, and then touched his palm to see if he was still sweating.

"According to the usual practice, the imperial decree is composed of nine characters in a row." Bai Xuehe lowered his head, and his white fingers stroked the late emperor's thick and square handwriting, "But in this posthumous decree, there are ten characters in a row..."
