The camp guards never imagined that this night, which was supposed to be a good rest after returning to the army, would be so restless.When he called the soldiers to close the city gate, he saw a horse galloping from outside the city from a distance, ran all the way to the bottom of the city and rushed in through the gap between the closing city gate.That rider rushed towards the city tower without stopping, and the people who heard the movement came down to check, but saw that girl who was silent on weekdays was trying her best to support Mr. Zhang Liang's figure with her shoulders. His eyes were closed, his face was blue and gray, and his clothes were soaked in bright red.With her messy hair covering her face, she yelled at them almost with all her strength:

"Find the doctor quickly! Save him quickly!"

There was a commotion in the tower.Hearing the news, Pei Gong rushed out of the discussion place immediately, swearing and pointing at people to do things.A group of people rushed to help Mr. Zhang Liang into the back room, and after a neighing sound outside the door, the doctor from the next street appeared at the door with a medicine box.Xiao He yelled to let the blocked crowd get out of the way, rubbed his aching temples, turned his head and saw Yun collapsed and leaned against the door frame as if he had lost all strength, his body was messed up and his eyes were out of focus.

Aware of the gaze looking at him, Yun shrank his legs slightly and stood up against the door, then turned his head stiffly, and couldn't help flashing his eyes after meeting Xiao He's sight.The people passing in and out cast strange glances at her from time to time, Xiao He sighed, then turned and pointed to the stove connected to the backyard: "Light the fire and boil the water."

Yun Wei hurriedly nodded in response, Xiao He ignored her and ordered other people to do things.She put her head down and ran away.The fetched water was placed on the ground in the backyard. Yun Wei took down the ax to split the firewood and then peeled it off. His left hand shook uncontrollably and he couldn't use any strength. After several times, his fingers and palm had been pricked several times by wooden thorns.The colic still persisted, she could only pinch the acupoints where she tapped last time based on her memory to barely ease it.

From dusk to late at night, the whole city tower was brightly lit, and the horses who went to the east of the city to get the hemostatic wound medicine had already ran back and forth four or five times.Liu Ji's yelling and cursing were particularly prominent amidst the commotion: "Fuck me, let me tell you why the Qin soldiers I met today were so cowardly. It turned out that they were prepared for it! When I, Liu Ji, took that Sima Yi, In a few days, I will no longer be the Duke of Pei for the [-]th generation of his ancestors!"

Yun Wei listened blankly, Liu Ji seemed to remember something, turned around and yelled at the crowd behind: "Where is the respondent? Who dares to go so late?"

The sound of footsteps stopped because of his roar, Yun Wei's hand shook, and the firewood fell to the ground and rolled around a few times.

The subtle sound was very clear in the suddenly quiet room, and she felt that more than a dozen eyes in the hall were shooting at her in unison.Liu Ji didn't give up, seeing no one answered, he raised his voice and asked again: "Which person?"

"My lord," a general next to him said in a low voice with a look of embarrassment on his face, "Mr. Zhang Liang said that the time is three hours after the withdrawal of troops. This..."

Liu Ji was at a loss for words, his back was stiff for a moment, and he waved his hand to other people in the hall impatiently for a while: "Okay, okay, what should I do, what do you look like standing there, I want you Have you done all the work?"

The onlookers didn't dare to touch his face and fled in all directions to avoid it. Xiao He coughed dryly, turned his face to the cubicle beside him and said, "Girl, come out."

Yun Wei paused for a moment, then slowly opened the door and walked out of the shadows.

There were five or six people standing outside, all of whom were quite important figures in the camp.When Fan Kui saw her embarrassed look, he immediately couldn't hold back: "Oh my god, what's going on with you, why did you rush over by yourself?"

Yun Wei tilted his body, but Fan Kui didn't want to stop and was still muttering: "Is it hurt, did you alarm other people, they won't bully you more and partner with you..."

"Uncle Fan, I'm fine." Yun Wei interrupted him, and Fan Kui kept his mouth shut.

The atmosphere fell into embarrassment with the silence, and Xiao He broke the subtlety in a moment. "It's really thanks to you this time." He said aloud, looked at the people walking upstairs, turned his head and waved his hands, but didn't look at her, "There are almost enough people to help, the girl has been running around this time, today Let's take a rest early." As he spoke, he secretly touched Liu Ji's back with his elbow, and the latter hurriedly answered as if he had come to his senses: "Ah, yes, yes, girl, it's really hard work, don't boil the water and find someone else to do it. , hurry back to camp and rest."

Yun Wei was a little absent-minded, subconsciously responded, turned around and walked towards the door, but within three steps, a person behind suddenly asked: "The girl doesn't seem to be the one to respond?"

Yun Wei stopped.

The air became stagnant as the words landed, she stood still for a while, then slowly turned back.The person who spoke looked at her with a frown, and asked a little hesitantly: "Girl...why did you come so early?"

At night, the wind blew a chill down her spine. From the beginning to the present, several fragments of memories flashed through her mind. She trembled, and slowly opened her mouth to answer:

"I misremembered the time..."

The few gazes cast on her suddenly had various meanings after her words.Fan Kui first let out a long breath and slapped the table heavily: "Fortunately, fortunately, the girl was confused this time." Liu Ji seemed relieved, and wiped the sweat that had been hanging on his forehead since just now.Although the generals behind him were puzzled, they didn't say much. Yun Wei lowered her head, listening to Liu Ji calling her to go back quickly, she pursed her lips and hesitated to speak.Liu Ji noticed her strangeness, and asked her what was going on, Yun Wei clenched the corner of her clothes, and hesitantly said: "My lord... can I stay?"

Liu Ji didn't react a little, and then he punched his palm like an epiphany: "Oh, I forgot that the girl ran for a trip and hasn't eaten yet. There are some old Xiao left in the conference hall upstairs, go quickly Hurry up, tell your Uncle Liu Ji soon..."

Yun Wei froze, answered vaguely for a moment, dragged her already tired legs around the crowd and went upstairs.

The sound of footsteps outside the door continued until midnight, and then the boiling noise gradually weakened.Yun Wei curled up blankly in the corner and stared at the oil lamp on the table, with broken thoughts in her head, unable to think about anything until the sound of opening the door came.

"The doctor said it was stable." Xiao He closed the door and walked into the house.Yun Wei hurriedly stood up from the ground when she heard the sound, her long-bent legs went numb, she stared at Xiao He approaching step by step, then stopped, and said to herself: "The two wounds on the ribs and back have stopped bleeding, the rest None of them are critical. I’m afraid it will take at least two days to wake up, and I’ll need some time to recuperate afterwards.”

The nerves that had been tense all the time finally relaxed, and a sense of fatigue surged up all over her body.Yun Wei nodded, sorted out the messy hair in front of her forehead somewhat awkwardly, pursed her lips and hummed.Xiao He didn't intend to leave, he stood where he was and looked at her.

"Girl," he said slowly, "tell me the truth, why did you go there alone?"

Yun Wei froze.

"It's good that you were the one who sent the message that day, but you were not the one who responded," Xiao He continued, with a deep and deep voice but firmly, "The reason for misremembering the time may be true for someone else, but I, Xiao He, don't think I'm confused. , Seeing that you have been doing things for half a year, I naturally know that you cannot make such a mistake."

A chill slowly climbed from the back to the limbs, and Yun Wei was as cold as falling into an ice cellar.The left hand that had been numb and weak since just now began to tremble uncontrollably, and the right foot subconsciously moved back half a step, but Xiao He paused and spoke again.

"Brother Fan Kuai said that you fled into the mountains from a nearby village and was found by him, but he didn't find out where you were from before. I heard that Mr. Zhang Liang was once the third head of Sanghai Little Sage Village, but Confucianism was destroyed more than half a year ago, so he also fled elsewhere " Xiao He's voice was steady and unwavering, but the words he uttered hit Yun Wei's ears in a series of heavy blows, "The relationship between you and Mr. Zhang Liang should be more than a simple acquaintance."

The huge conference hall was terribly empty at this time, the lights on the desks were faltering, and in the complete silence, the cold wind penetrated through the gaps in the window frames and made a small and sharp sound like the cry of a ghost.The cold engulfed her whole body, and a long-lost fear engulfed her like a huge net, Yun Wei subconsciously took another half step back, accidentally touched the food box behind her and made a harsh rubbing sound, but heard silence After a while, Xiao He opened his mouth again, but his voice was much softer than before.

"Girl, don't be afraid. There is no one else here. If you trust Uncle Xiao, just tell me. I won't tell anyone else."

Yun Wei was stunned for a moment, and after realizing it, she suddenly raised her head, Xiao He looked straight into her eyes, his eyes were dark brown under the light.

The cold feeling on his body gradually faded away, leaving only the coolness of the cold sweat on his palms being carried away by the wind.Yun Wei let go of her tight lips, and opened her mouth, her voice was a little hoarse due to the long silence: "Uncle Xiao doesn't suspect me?"

"I think I know you quite well, and I know what you are and what you are." Xiao He's tone remained unchanged, and he pulled out his hand behind his back to flick the wick on the table, then straightened up again, with a solemn expression, "So girl, why Alone more than two hours earlier?"

The trembling flames stabilized again, and the originally dark surroundings also revealed their outlines as the lights brightened.Yun Wei looked at him, counted quickly in her heart, and finally made up her mind.

"Someone did it on purpose." She inhaled tremblingly, then lowered her voice and said.

Xiao He frowned, puzzled flashed in his eyes.

"Someone deliberately moved on the horse's hoof," Yun Wei repeated, and continued while being alert to the sound of footsteps outside the door, "I don't know if the whereabouts were revealed artificially, but the leather on the horse's shoe fell off," she paused. After a pause, he lowered his voice to only breath, "It must have been done by someone in the barracks."

Xiao He's expression froze.After finally saying these words, Yun Wei let out a long breath, her pursed lips turning white.Xiao He turned his gaze away, thought for a while and asked, "Do you have a clue?"

"Not yet." Yun Wei replied, "Before the troops were dispatched, there were many people in the stables. If we went to check one by one now, we would be alarmed. I don't know if anyone in the camp has seen that leather animal, but..."

"Just what?" Xiao He heard the hesitation in her tone, and asked in a deep voice.

"Don't tell the lord, let alone Uncle Fan," Yun Wei's voice trembled, but she was determined, "I didn't touch that leather. If that person finds out about this omission, he will definitely deal with it. I There must be people who suspect the lie I told, so don’t explain it to them, if someone in the army suspects me, that person...maybe he will relax his guard."

Hearing this, Xiao He's expression changed: "Are you going to investigate alone?"

Yun Wei bit her lips tightly and nodded.

The author has something to say: about some conjectures in the comments:

The people who came this time have no great relationship with the old enemies in the previous plot (the priest and his subordinates are basically dead), the plot will have less martial arts elements at this stage, so there will be no more hidden for many years A peerless master with defying skills (what the hell)

Old Xiao really noticed something.

In addition, this article is HE, so the protagonist has a halo body protection, please rest assured
