Standing up to the west wind and geese not returning

The driver is dead.Three feet away from the carriage, Yu Qiao suddenly stopped.

While Yan Ci lowered his head to sort the wild fruits in his arms, he continued to walk forward. Yu Qiao stretched out his hand to block it, and said, "My lord, wait here a moment."

Yu Qiao didn't explain much, and then walked forward cautiously, then stopped a step in front of the carriage, took out a green fruit from her bosom, and punched it into the carriage.

The sound of fruit hitting the inner wall of the carriage was heard in the carriage, Yu Qiao's eyes sank, she leaned forward and pushed forward with her palm wind, the curtain of the carriage was slightly lifted, she only saw that the fruit fell on the carriage Instead, it landed in a bundle, and Yu Qiao just exhaled lightly and said, "No wonder there was no sound when it landed."

Yan Ci then stepped forward after Yu Qiao's signal. Seeing that Yu Qiao was acting cautiously, Yan Ci couldn't help asking, "What's the matter? Is there any problem?"

Na Yuqiao smiled and said, "It's okay, there are many insidious and despicable methods in the world, it's always better to be cautious."

Yan Ci nodded slightly, and then said, "Are we going to abandon the carriage now?"

Yu Qiao smiled and said, "The carriage can go one day at most. If you are not too tired, you can ride the horse. If you feel exhausted, you can return to the carriage. Yu Qiao will drive the carriage for you."

Yan Ci looked at Yu Qiao's expression, as if he suddenly understood some of Yu Qiao's gestures, and said, "Okay. Then, please trouble Brother Yu Qiao to drive the car. Let me rest for another day."

After Yan Ci finished speaking, he didn't leave. Instead, Yu Qiao made a gesture and walked towards the carriage.

When Yu Qiao stepped onto the pole of the carriage with one foot.Suddenly a person flew out from under the carriage, holding a green dagger in his hand, the poisoned ice blade gleamed frighteningly in the sun.

Yu Qiao sneered, flew up, pinched the man's neck with both feet and twisted fiercely, and saw that the man followed Yu Qiao's feet and turned lightly, unexpectedly defusing the strength on Yu Qiao's feet Lost.Yu Qiao shouted, "Die!"

Immediately, the long knife in his hand flipped out, and then stabbed obliquely into the man's back from the front.The man was in pain, and the dagger in his hand fell to the ground, but suddenly he smiled evilly, and spit in the direction of Yan Ci.Yu Qiao froze for a moment, she was about to pull out the long knife, but it was too late.

A poisonous needle flew straight towards Yan Ci along the mouth of the man. Yu Qiao was furious, and struck down with his palm, and the man's celestial spirit cap was smashed to pieces by Yu Qiao.

Just as Yu Qiao got up and leaped towards Yan Ci, she saw that Yan Ci had already pulled out the poisonous needle and held it in his hand.

Yu Qiao was startled, and hurriedly pushed Yan Ci's wrist, the poisonous needle fell to the ground, Yu Qiao grabbed Yan Ci's wrist, and while helping Yan Ci feel his pulse, said, "Poisonous!"

Yan Ci just felt a stabbing pain in his abdomen, and before he could think about it, he pulled out the needle when he saw it.

At this moment, when Yu Qiao said it, she became afraid just now.Seeing Yu Qiao grabbing his wrist, frowning while feeling his pulse, Yan Ci only felt that his stomach hurt even more.

After a long time, Yu Qiao put down Yan Ci's wrist, went to look at the poisonous needle on the ground again, and then said, "This is indeed a poisonous needle, Mr. Yan, have you ever taken any great medicine?"

Yan Ci was puzzled, and hurriedly asked, "What happened to the poisonous needle?"

Yu Qiao shook her head and said, "The poisonous needle is nothing, but my lord. Why didn't you die after being poisoned?"

Yan Ci was startled, not understanding what Yu Qiao meant. Yu Qiao pointed to the poisonous needle on the ground and said, "Here, it's poisonous." Fu pointed to Yan Ci again and said, "I just took the pulse for my lord, but it is Everything works. Just don't know why it happened."

Yan Ci looked at the poisonous needle and asked, "Is the poisonous needle not poisonous enough?"

Yu Qiao shook her head and said, "This poisonous needle can poison at least three cows to death."

Yan Ci was puzzled, "Then why did that person bite it in his mouth just now, and didn't see him being poisoned to death?"

Yu Qiao said, "I have an antidote."

Yan Ci seemed to understand, but then said, "Perhaps the poison was in his mouth, and the words were wiped out."

Yu Qiao shook her head lightly and remained silent, she just began to wonder how the imperial court chose the champion of the new department.

Yan Ci smiled, but he remembered the Jade Blood Golden Pill that Du Zijin had mentioned to him.He couldn't help but gently raised his hand to protect his lower abdomen.Looking at the direction of the capital in a daze.

Yu Qiao sees that the big deal is over.Seeing Yan Ci's gloomy expression again, Fu thought he was a little scared after seeing the blood, so he joked, "What is Mr. Yan doing with his stomach in his arms? Can he still have a child?"

When Yan Ci was told by Yu Qiao, he just put his hand down and said with a blushing face, "Brother Yu Qiao, don't talk nonsense."

Yu Qiao smiled and said, "Okay, since Master Yan is fine, we'd better hurry up, sooner rather than later."

Yan Ci nodded lightly, but said, "The carriage is difficult to move, so we should untie the horse. I will ride a horse."

Yu Qiao didn't do much to stop them, and the two took their burdens, one person and one horse, and rode forward.

Horses were much faster than carriages. At first they thought there were still two days to go, but when it was getting dark on the second day, the two of them had already arrived at the foot of the snow-capped mountains.

Yan Ci wore a thick mink fur cloak.And Yu Qiao did it herself, using fallen leaves to tie a coir raincoat for herself, and wrapping it hastily around her body.

Yu Qiao stopped his horse and said, "My lord, this place is closer to the snow-capped mountains, and the trees have already withered. There are many things that can be used to light a fire to keep warm. Let's take a rest here, what do you think?"

Yan Ci smiled and said. "It's all up to brother Yuqiao to arrange."

Yu Qiao got off the horse, tied the rein to a small tree, and said, "My lord, get off the horse quickly. I'll find you something delicious."

As he spoke, he walked towards a big tree beside him with a smile, only to see that the trunk was withered and its branches and leaves were falling, but on the dry trunk, there was a mass of withered grass. It was brought down.

Yan Ci saw Yu Qiao bring the bird's nest over, and saw that there were seven or eight bright white bird eggs under the withered grass.

He couldn't help saying, "Brother Yuqiao, if we eat these birds' eggs, I'm afraid that the old bird will return and won't let it go."

Yu Qiao smiled and said, "If it was an ordinary bird, maybe it would, but this is the egg of Wangchuan. Legend has it that this bird was transformed by an infatuated woman. She once fell in love with someone, but was deceived and hurt. After giving birth to a child, she died. being abandoned.

So the woman vented her hatred on the child.I feel like I was abandoned because of my child.

So when drinking Wangchuan water, I made a poisonous wish to Po Meng to abandon all my children in life and life.So in this kind of forest, there are eggs they drop everywhere. "

Yan Ci sighed after hearing this, and couldn't help saying, "It's a pity, but this woman is strange. Ordinary women, even if they are abandoned by their husbands, will not give up their children. Fortunately, she is so cruel."

While lighting the fire, Yu Qiao said, "My lord doesn't know that women in this world are the scariest. They have too many intense emotions. If they are not treated kindly, they will become their sharpest weapons. They will kill you." There are too many of them."

Yan Ci shook his head lightly, and sat down beside the fire that had already been made. He was approaching the snow mountain at this moment, and there was already white air between his words, and Yan Ci shook his head lightly, saying, "Poor for so many infatuated people in the world." A woman. She is always let down."

Na Yuqiao dug a shallow hole beside the fire, then carefully buried the bird's egg in the shallow hole, and then moved some fire on it.

Said, "Not necessarily, women are infatuated, but you are not justified if you are infatuated. If a man deliberately deceives, it is the man's fault, but if the woman herself is infatuated and wronged, I am afraid that no matter what, she has to know people for herself I don't know the price to pay."

When Yan Ci heard this, he nodded slightly, and murmured with emotion, "Unfortunately, people in the world always want to be in love with each other. In this world, how many people can be in love with each other."

Yu Qiao smiled and said nothing, the two looked at the snow-capped mountains in the distance under the bright light of the fire, only to feel the chill come and go.

Not long after, Yu Qiao pulled out the buried bird's egg and wiped it carefully on her body.He kept two pills for himself, and distributed the others to Yan Ci.

Yan Ci was used to being taken care of by Yu Qiao along the way, so he didn't make any excuses, so he peeled off the bird's egg and took a bite, sure enough, it was delicious. "

The two ate some bird eggs, and then some green fruits.Yu Qiao looked up at the sky full of stars, carefully laid a thick layer of fallen leaves on the root of a big tree, and then said, "My lord, tonight will be just one night."

Yan Ci smiled and said, "After half a month's travel, Yan Ci has already gotten used to it, Brother Yu Qiao doesn't have to worry about it."

Yu Qiao is not a coy person at all, so she didn't say anything more after hearing the words. Seeing Yan Ci lying down in his clothes, she jumped up and leaned on the branch of the big tree, and then said to Yan Ci who was on the ground. , "Your Excellency, rest assured, it's cold here, and there are very few wild animals and birds. If there are any, Yu Qiao will block them back for Your Excellency."

Yan Ci smiled and said, "Yan Ci knows Brother Yuqiao's skills, so he is very relieved."

After Yan Ci finished speaking, he wrapped himself in the cloak.However, he thought of Du Zijin again, that day when he was ambushed by the Yuxi River, and when Du Zijin was injured, he took him with him, lying in the shade of a tree like this.

The flowers, trees and shadows of that day were like colorful scrolls, lingering in Yan Ci's mind bit by bit.

Du Zijin, are you okay?Does anyone else want to kill you?

Yan Ci opened his eyes and looked at the stars and the bright moon in the sky, remembering what the ancients said, a thousand miles share beautiful beauty.I don't know, who is the moon in the capital shining at this moment?

Yan Ci fell into a deep sleep in a haze.The dream is full of that person's behavior and jokes.Yan Ci dreamed that the man led him to the bamboo house in Baihe Valley, Yan Ci opened the door and went in, and suddenly a big green snake came out.

"Ah—" Yan Ci screamed and hurriedly sat up.

"Having a nightmare?" a voice asked.But it wasn't Yu Qiao.Yan's speech was clear.Floating slowly in the air.It was the ambergris on him.
