Ye Huaiyun led his men directly into the mine, but apart from spending some effort to deal with Tan Jian's confidants who were patrolling outside the cave, the fierce battle he expected did not happen.

Because in the mine, there were no living puppets, and the pieces of iron ore that had been dug up were gone.

Even Chu Tingyun is not here...

You don't need to think about it, someone leaked their plan in advance and moved all the things in advance, but where will Chu Tingyun be?

Based on Ye Huaiyun's understanding of him, Chu Tingyun will continue to hide his identity, keep up with the person who transferred the ore, go deep into the enemy's place, and wait for the opportunity.But it's not too early or too late, today is July [-]th, it is a big taboo for those who practice martial arts to have a disordered internal breath, let alone not being able to use martial arts, even walking a step will be accompanied by dull pain all over the body.

He didn't dare to think about it, and immediately ordered everyone to start chasing along the tracks of the ore being transported away.

"Boom—" The thunder sounded startled.

The sky, which was still covered with thin clouds just now, was suddenly covered with dark clouds.

In the midst of lightning and thunder, bean-sized raindrops fell, and the torches in everyone's hands were sizzled and extinguished.

Ye Huaiyun frowned deeply, and the rain fell from between the creases on his raised eyebrows, from the bridge of his nose to his chin, and then wet his shirt along his neck.

The autumn rain was cold, and he stood in the dark forest and thought: It's cold.

Such a heavy rain washed away the traces left by the ruts almost instantly, and also made the already rugged mountain road more muddy and difficult to walk.

Without the lighting torches, no one could see anyone in the dark unless they were close.

Ye Huaiyun was so upset that he poked open every cave that was covered by vines like a headless chicken in the rainy night, but he still found nothing. Afterwards, he no longer knew where he was walking.

It had been pouring down for half an hour, and Ye Huaiyun, who was drenched all over, leaned against a rock and couldn't help shivering.

If no one could be found on the entire mountain, it would be the worst case... He was found out by King Chang Xin's men, imprisoned and taken away.

Ye Huaiyun closed his eyes, his fingers clenched into fists and made a cracking sound, he had never blamed himself so much.

It's all his fault that he didn't think ahead...

It was probably because his mood fluctuated too much and was felt by the Xuanyi sword in his hand, or it was his clenched palm that inadvertently injected an internal force similar to that of Chu Tingyun.In short, at this moment, the Xuanyi sword in his hand suddenly shone with a little reddish light, and then spread forward along the sword body as a long line.

Ye Huaiyun looked at this scene strangely, and finally, the red light stopped at the side of the sword tip.

Suddenly, an extremely bold guess appeared in Ye Huaiyun's mind. Could it be that the demon sword has a spirit, and this red light is guiding him?

Ye Huaiyun wiped the rain off his face, took a step forward and ran in the direction of Jian Guang.

The rain-soaked robes clung to his body, making them heavy and unbearable, and the night wind blew them into his bones with chills.But Ye Huaiyun couldn't feel anything at this time, until the red sword light disappeared, and he stood in front of a cave, saw a familiar figure leaning on the stone wall, and finally let out a long breath that was raised in his chest.

"Tingyun..." Ye Huaiyun walked into the cave and squatted in front of him.

Chu Tingyun frowned, closed his eyes tightly, and grasped the stone wall with one hand, so hard that blood oozes from the palm and fingers, staining the whole stone red.

Ye Huaiyun stretched out his hand to cover his bloody hand, and gently opened his fingers one by one before letting him let go of the stone wall.

Chu Tingyun's consciousness was already blurred at this time, and in the chaos, he only felt that the thing he was holding in his hand suddenly disappeared, so he didn't think about it at all, and directly grabbed the object closest to him to support the pain in his body.

He pinched his own wrist, and five fingernail marks were pinched on the leather watch in an instant.

Ye Huaiyun's eyes narrowed, not because of the pain, but because of the temperature of the palm...so hot.

He reached out to touch Chu Tingyun's neck again, and it was also hot.

As if feeling him beside him, Chu Tingyun's lips moved, and he murmured messily: "Huaiyun..."

"What?" Ye Huaiyun leaned closer to listen.

"Cold...so cold..."

cold?Ye Huaiyun pressed the back of his hand on the side of his neck, only feeling a burning temperature, how could he still feel cold?

The cave was cold and damp, and the dead branches of the vines outside were drenched by the rain. It was impossible to light a fire to keep warm.Ye Huaiyun thought for a while, then opened her arms, thinking of hugging him to keep her warm.

But as soon as his arm touched Chu Tingyun's back, the person who was already screaming for cold suddenly shivered, as if he felt even more uncomfortable.

Only then did Ye Huaiyun realize that his whole body was wet.He glanced at the extremely impatient Chu Tingyun, pursed his lips, and simply pulled off the girdle, took off the clothes one by one, and finally only left a pair of trousers, hugging the person close to his body.

The Xuanyi Sword, which was thrown aside, glowed with light again.Ye Huaiyun immediately understood the meaning of the sword this time, and put it in Chu Tingyun's hands.

The autumn rain outside the cave lingers in my ears, and the messy breathing in my arms inside the cave hits my heart.Two extremely incongruous voices intertwined, and Ye Huaiyun fell asleep unconsciously.

When he woke up again, the dawn light had already entered the cave, and the pouring rain had stopped in the middle of the night, and the smell of damp soil filled his nostrils.

Ye Huaiyun moved and stood in a stalemate all night, but suddenly felt that his whole body was bound by something, and when he lowered his eyes, he saw that he was covered with Chu Tingyun's black robe, so he looked up.Sure enough, Chu Tingyun was looking at him quietly, focused and serious.

"Are you okay?" Ye Huaiyun took his hand and opened his mouth to feel his pulse.

"Well, it's all right." Chu Tingyun's lips curled up slightly, and he wrapped the hair scattered on his forehead behind his ears, and said, "Now you have something to do."

"What's the matter with me?" Ye Huaiyun looked confused.Chu Tingyun took his hand and pressed it to his forehead, the temperature under the back of his hand was hot.

Ye Huaiyun shook his head, no wonder he felt dizzy when he woke up just now, it turned out he had a fever.

"I took off my clothes after getting wet in the rain. It's no wonder I didn't catch a cold and have a fever." Chu Tingyun sighed and hugged him even tighter.When he opened his mouth again, there was a tinge of reproach in his helplessness, "Three days ago, he clearly promised me that he would protect himself. Your Highness King Xiang, who has no jokes, has broken his promise this time."

Ye Huaiyun could naturally hear that he was worried about herself, but she still patted Chu Tingyun's hand that was tightly gripping her, making him loosen and said: "Gu is not for you, who would have thought that your inner breath would become disordered?" It's that scary."

"Scared you?" Chu Tingyun rubbed his eyelids with his thumb, smiled and said, "The days to come are still long, you have to get used to it."

"Is there no way to cure it?" Ye Huaiyun couldn't help but frowned when he remembered his appearance last night.

"Is there any way to cure the retrograde internal breath?" Chu Tingyun said indifferently: "It's just a big problem on the left, just adjust it overnight. But what's the situation in the mine on your side?"

Hearing his question, Ye Huaiyun raised his hand and rubbed the center of his drowsy brows, shook his head and sighed: "It's a step too late, the things were moved away in advance."

Hearing this, Chu Tingyun's usually indifferent face cracked a line of surprise that was deeper than Ye Huaiyun's when he entered the mine last night.

"When did you go up the mountain?" Chu Tingyun asked him.

Ye Huaiyun said: "Zi arrived at the entrance of the cave just in time."

Chu Tingyun looked into his eyes and said: "I noticed that my internal breath was not stable at the time of Haizheng, and I sneaked here, only an hour later..."

His voice stopped abruptly, but Ye Huaiyun understood his guess.

In such a short period of time, it can only be that their plans have been leaked.

"Only you and I and Zhao Chuyang know about this in advance," Chu Tingyun said.Although he also finds it unbelievable, this is the only explanation at present.

Ye Huaiyun was also pondering. He recalled what happened after yesterday evening, and then suddenly looked into Chu Tingyun's night-like eyes, and said, "It's not Zhao Chuyang, he has no reason to do this." He paused After a pause, he continued: "Before I went to find Ding Jishui, I told another person about the matter."

"Duan Ye?" Chu Tingyun immediately guessed.

Ye Huaiyun pursed her lips, "It's Lin Xu."

The two of them immediately knew that it must be Jiang Linxu who quickly told Duan Ye about this matter.As for whether it was the secret leaked by Duan Ye, you will know when you return to the Sheriff's Mansion.

"Let's go." Ye Huaiyun got up from his arms first, "The shadow guards outside have been looking for us all night, and if they don't go back, they must have toppled this mountain."

"Wait a minute." As soon as he stood up, Chu Tingyun grabbed his wrist, and Ye Huaiyun turned to look at him in confusion.

Chu Tingyun closed his clothes and asked, "You really want to go out like this?"

Ye Huaiyun noticed that his eyes looked at her from top to bottom, and then remembered that she took off all her clothes last night to take care of him.This morning, he only wore Chu Tingyun's large robe, which was almost loosely hung on his shoulders, and his waist was tightened, but once he took a little stride, he could reveal his white shoulders.

Looking at the ground again, the clothes that were drenched in the rain last night are still so wet that water can be wrung out. Wearing it... definitely won't put it back on.From this point of view, it seemed a little inappropriate to go out like this.

Ye Huaiyun looked back at Chu Tingyun, as if asking him if he had a good solution.

I saw Chu Tingyun frowned and smiled, and took a step towards him, and the next moment, Ye Huaiyun was held in his arms.

Unlike the last time when he was wearing a woman's skirt, today his clothes are loose. In order to prevent the outer robe from slipping off his shoulders, he can only shrink into Chu Tingyun's arms as much as possible, which makes this man very happy, as if even the spots at the end of his eyes are curled up. Li Shahong also jumped up in the autumn wind.

Chu Tingyun carried him all the way to the front of the mine, Xie Lan had been waiting there all night, and he was relieved to see the two of them appearing together.

Ye Huaiyun ordered some of the East Palace Shadow Guards to stay here, while the rest returned to Zhiyang County to perform their duties.

After descending the mountain, Chu Tingyun carried Ye Huaiyun into the carriage, lowered the curtains, and kissed him on the lips before he could sit still.

Chu Tingyun's warm breath hit his cheek, and Ye Huaiyun subconsciously closed his eyes.

A long kiss went from shallow to deep, and then from deep to shallow. After the carriage bumped on the muddy path, Chu Tingyun slowly let go of his arms around his waist and sat aside.

"There's something I forgot to tell you." Ye Huaiyun just recovered his breath, and heard Chu Tingyun say: "When I was in the mine two days ago, I carefully looked at the faces of those living puppets. Guess what? Who was found?"

Ye Huaiyun thought for a while, since he asked this, it must be someone they know or know.

"Those bandits?" Ye Huaiyun suddenly guessed in his heart.

"Smart." Chu Tingyun scratched the bridge of his nose, and said again: "But it's not just bandits, there are also two people you can never think of: Pan Han and Zhong Gui."

When Ye Huaiyun heard these two names at first, it took him a while to remember who they were.

"Are they all... dead?" Ye Huaiyun asked.

"Well, they are all dead." Chu Tingyun affirmed his guess, "It is estimated that he was killed and planted Gu worms when he was in Tianguanfang, and as for Pan Xiuxiu's body being thrown into the wild at the beginning, it is probably because of planting Gu worms. If the Gu failed, it could not turn her into a living puppet, so it has no use value."

Ye Huaiyun suddenly remembered Pan Xiuxiu's tragic death, and the gamblers who tried to win one after another in Tianguanfang back then, but lost all their wealth in the end.

I don't know if those people have escaped being made living puppets, and I don't know how many "Tianguanfang" and how many innocent people are still killed in other counties where they didn't pass through.

Ye Huaiyun lifted the curtain, looked at the gloomy sky that seemed to be about to rain again, and opened his lips and said, "Let's go to the Southwest Domain."

[The author has something to say: Yes, you are not mistaken, this is a kiss without brushing your teeth after getting up in the morning... In an instant, it is not beautiful, is it hahahahaha, this is true love! 】
