cold branch low

That night, Ning'an's Prince Duan's mansion ran out of water.

The fire was so bright that the people of Ning'an went out to help the palace to put out the fire. The old man said that they had never seen such a big fire. It is estimated that the entire palace was burned down.

Three people were lost in this fire, one was Prince Duan, the other was Prince Duan's fourth-rank guard with a sword Shen Chen, and the other was Wen Renhuang who only the old housekeeper knew.

Good things don't go out and evil things travel thousands of miles, and the whole Daqi knows in one night that Duan Wang is missing.

The body of the young man who was about to grow into a young man was tall and thin, and he felt that he had never been so embarrassed.

His face and body were covered with soot, and his gray clothes were soaked in dew after driving all night, and they became brittle after being exposed to the morning sun. To outsiders, he looked like a little beggar on the side of the road.

And this little beggar is Wen Renhuang who escaped from Prince Duan's Mansion last night.

After he was pushed out of the fire by the crow, he was afraid of being discovered, and he didn't dare to stay and kept running. He ran for most of the night, and now he was dizzy from the morning sun.

He just wanted to escape from King Duan's sphere of influence quickly and go to Yangzhou to find Vulture. He didn't know what the crow wrote to Vulture, but judging from the tone of the crow last night, it might be a big deal.

However, soon, he felt what it meant to be a lost dog.

Wearing too tattered clothes, he was pushed out by the waiter at the inn. Before he even opened his mouth to say that he wanted to stay in the inn, the waiter cursed and said, "Who is it? A stinky beggar also wants to stay in the inn!"

He held back his breath and said in a muffled voice, "I'm not a beggar."

Xiao Er gave a soft pew: "Then, go and change your clothes before you come back."

Wen Renhuang was so angry that he wanted to punch him in the face, but he had to hold back. He didn't dare to cause trouble again in this troubled time.

Seeing that he was silent, Xiao Er grunted and was about to turn around, but saw a rich man coming from behind, and immediately walked through Wenren Huang to meet him: "Hey, master, you should stay in the hotel if you are a top player." ah!"

Wen Renhuang snapped: "You son of a bitch."

He turned around and was about to leave with his head held high, but was stopped by the cold gaze of the person who came.

Duan Wang.

Huo Xiao.

Xiao Er looked at the young man in fancy clothes in a daze, and instead of answering his own words, he kept staring at the little beggar.

Wen Renhuang took a deep breath and ran away!

Huo Xiao sneered, stretched out his legs and tripped to block his way, Wen Renhuang almost fell, gritted his teeth and turned around, and drew out the soft sword at his waist regardless of the treachery, and stabbed at the hand that was about to grab him. past.

"Tsk!" Xiao Er jumped back in fright, but saw that the handsome man turned sideways and just dodged, and slashed Wen Renhuang's neck with a hand knife, and Wen Renhuang who was slashed His eyes were blackened by the pain.

Huo Xiao lifted his breath, glanced at the dumbfounded Xiaoer and said, "Lead the way, I want a room."

"Oh...oh! Good guest, come with me!"

Xiao Er was still a little scared, he didn't expect that little beggar to have martial arts and had a sword in his waist, and he didn't expect that a rich man in rich clothes could be so vicious, so he didn't even dare to look at Huo Xiao, and lowered his head. Huo Xiao led it to the door and left in despair!

When Wen Renhuang woke up, he saw Huo Xiao meditating on the bed frowning, while he was lying on the hard floor.He quickly glanced at himself, and found that there was no sign of being searched, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.He took out the crow's letter and put it in the pocket of his coat, fearing that it would be bad if someone took advantage of his unpreparedness to find the letter in the bag.

So he got up gently, planning to sneak away while Huo Xiao was meditating or sleeping, he didn't want Huo Xiao to open his eyes when he made a movement just now: "Don't move."

Wen Renhuang really didn't dare to move.

"Mr. Wenren is so courageous, he dared to leave the house without my king's permission, huh?" Huo Xiao put down his legs and straightened his clothes.

"My lord was joking. Seeing the chaos in the palace, I dare not add any more trouble to my lord, so I walked away in a hurry." Wen Renhuang turned his head to look at him in embarrassment, only then did he notice Huo Xiao's expression. A bit worse, he was startled, afraid that he would touch Ni Lin.

Huo Xiao looked at him coldly: "Whether it's chaos or not, it's not up to you."

Wen Renhuang said with a bitter face: "Yes, yes, the villain knew his mistake, but you are so far away, my lord... Are you here to arrest the villain?"

"None of your business." Huo Xiao's face turned darker, and he replied not at all tactful.

Wen Renhuang fled too quickly that night, looking for paths where there were no people. Naturally, he didn't know that almost the entire Daqi knew that King Duan was missing. I'm too lucky to be caught this way.

His eyes drifted over the burden placed beside the bed, and he asked cautiously: "Then, take care of your lord, can the villain go?"

Huo Xiao looked at him: "Where are you going?"

He looked at his nose, nose, and heart: "The villain remembered that Mr. Peacock once said that the vulture seniors of the Five Immortals Sect were more popular in the Jianghu, so the villain wanted to go to him to help me find my cousin's family."

Huo Xiao's shallow pupils tightened slightly, he sneered and said, "I didn't know that Mr. Wenren had such a plan."

Wen Renhuang felt that when he sneered, he must be in a bad mood, and he became more cautious when speaking: "My lord, look...can the villain leave?"

"You answer a few questions for me first." Huo Xiao said in a deep voice, Wen Renhuang nodded immediately, Huo Xiao thought for a while, and said, "Do you know crows?"

I was shocked.

"We on Qihuang Mountain, of course, have heard of crows, vultures, and peacocks. The peacock is usually taken care of by villains, and the other two are the right-hand men of Phoenix King. A role model for other phoenixes!" He puffed out his chest confidently.

Huo Xiao looked at him, wondering what he was thinking.

"Then have you ever seen a crow?"

"I heard that Senior Crow is talented in both civil and martial arts, wisdom and bravery, and it is my hope to meet him again!" He pretended to be looking forward to it.

Huo Xiao fell silent.

Wen Renhuang thought to finish the question quickly, I will make it up for you now, and we will not meet each other in the future, and we will hit you in the face when we meet.

Huo Xiao seemed to know what he was thinking, and raised his head quietly and said, "I have seen you wearing a dagger scabbard, can you show it to me."

Wen Renhuang was taken aback.

The scabbard is forged from the fine iron ore on Qihuang Mountain, it is extremely hard but light, it is perfect for holding a small dagger, but why does Huo Xiao want to look at this?

He stood up hesitantly, took out the scabbard from the bag, and accidentally leaked a piece of silver. He was so frightened that he hurriedly looked back at Huo Xiao's face. Fortunately, Huo Xiao didn't seem to have any reaction, and his eyes were only on the one in his hand. On the scabbard.

Wen Renhuang was in a panic, Xiao Hui was still inside, what if Xiao Hui was startled and jumped out to scare the prince, what if he wanted to beat me to death in a fit of anger?

He suddenly regretted showing the scabbard to the prince.

Huo Xiao took the scabbard, but didn't look at it seriously before asking him, "Where did you get the scabbard?"

Be sure to pretend that it has nothing to do with this scabbard!

"It was given by a friend on Qihuang Mountain before the villain went down the mountain," Wen Renhuang made up with difficulty. He dared not say that it was his own. In case Huo Xiao noticed the precious material and the rare fine iron beast inside. , and a little more speculation, I am afraid that there will be a lot of speculation.

Huo Xiao inadvertently tightened his hand holding the scabbard: "Since it was a gift from a friend, why is there only one scabbard?"

Originally, Wen Renhuang wanted to forget about this, but when Huo Xiao said he remembered it again, he said angrily: "Who said it wasn't! My friend said that the scabbard was originally the same as the dagger, but he One day I saved a white-eyed wolf, and while he wasn't paying attention, I slipped the dagger!"

After finishing speaking, he seemed to hear Huo Xiao chuckle lightly, he was shocked!

Huo Xiao's eyes carried an indescribable hypocrisy that he had never seen before.

When Wen Renhuang was feeling nauseated, Huo Xiao spat out a mouthful of blood.

Unbiased, Wen Renhuang was sprayed with blood all over his body and face, still with body temperature!

"Wang...Xiao!" Wen Renhuang caught Huo Xiao who fell down in horror, only to find that Huo Xiao's body was as icy as the river in March, in this scorching summer.

Is this actually a serious injury and chasing all the way here!

Wen Renhuang felt a huge wave in his heart, and hurriedly helped Huo Xiao up, seeing his pale face, he completely passed out.

He suddenly felt a pang of guilt in his heart. If it wasn't for helping him escape, the crow would not have set fire to his palace. Now that he is here and has suffered such a serious injury, he doesn't know why, but if he just leaves it like this , I really... can't bear it!

Gritting his teeth, Wen Renhuang decided to save someone for the second time in his life.

He has no spiritual power, now he can only use internal power to heal Huo Xiao's injuries, and his internal power is not very deep, so he can barely protect him for a while, as long as he waits for a while before going to the doctor, he can be rescued.

In a daze, Huo Xiao felt that there were hands pressing on his chest, and a warm current began to circulate around the atrium. He was a little confused, and tried to see who it was, but he could only see a vague shadow.

is it you.

Are you here to save me again?

He reached out to touch the man, but the man avoided him.

Wen Renhuang felt particularly annoying. He wanted to heal Huo Xiao with his heart. This man should have passed out and was unconscious, but now he started to move around for some reason, stroking his face with his hands recklessly.

"Touch carefully again, I'll leave you alone!"

Although Huo Xiao was still unconscious with his eyes closed, he actually calmed down when he heard Wen Renhuang curse.

Wen Renhuang saw that pretentious expression on his face again, his complexion was very complicated.

The crow pointed at the commander of the Longxiao Battalion, General Zhou, and shouted angrily: "General Zhou! Now the prince's life and death are uncertain, are you soldiers living for free? Why don't you send troops to find the whereabouts of the prince!"

Zhou Anchou watched the crow get angry in his camp for the third time today with a blank face, and said: "Prime Minister Wu, I have already said that it's not that our soldiers are unwilling to search for the whereabouts of the prince, it's just that there is no soldier amulet. All troops in the Huangshan area are not allowed to move around at will."

The crow narrowed his eyes and said loudly: "The generals are not allowed by military orders abroad. The rule is that the dead are alive. Without a soldier talisman, can you ignore the prince's life or death!"

Zhou Anchou answered kindly: "Military orders are like a mountain. The prince once issued a military order. Even if he was tied around the neck with a knife, as long as he didn't take out the military amulet to order us to act, we can't do anything. Even if we see the prince being wiped on the neck with our own eyes .”

The crow choked, and immediately didn't know how to respond to the serious coffin face in front of him, and cursed inwardly: Good you Huo Xiao!

Outside the tent, Shen Chen's face was as calm as water, and he was dressed in night clothes. He leaned against the tent and listened to the movement inside. After a while, he took the reins from the soldiers and disappeared into the darkness again.
