I was divorced because I got pregnant during the lean years, so I went back to my parents’ home and

After a while, Lang Ning came over with some jade pendants and jewelry.

"Miss Ji, I found it on them!"

Ji Xiaobei took it. It was dark and he couldn’t see clearly, but he felt that the things were quite warm.

She stuffed it into her sleeve, took Ma Debiao's hand and followed Li Lao away.

After walking for a while, Ji Xiaobei saw some green lights flickering in the depths of the woods.

Li Laoguai's breathing became rapid.

Sweat broke out on Lang Ning's back.

The wolf is really coming.

Ji Xiaobei also saw it, but she was not too scared. After all, she had raised a wolf cub before.

He tried to encourage himself, but his heart was pounding.

He looked at Li Laoguai coldly.

Just as he said the wolf was coming with his broken mouth, the wolf really came.

The three animals could no longer walk and no matter how hard they were pulled, they refused to move.

Lang Ning's horse was about to run away, but Lang Ning stopped it.

Ma Debiao's four legs began to tremble. He glanced at the little donkey with a sidelong glance. His expression was still calm, but it was obviously fake. The hair on his back had already stood up.

Ji Xiaobei looked at the man who claimed to have lived on Boling Mountain for several years.

Li Laoguai's face was tense.

"Uncle Li, what should we do?" Ji Xiaobei asked in a low voice.

Li Laoguai once encountered a wolf on Boling Mountain. His leg was bitten off by the wolf and he almost lost his life.

His throat was so tense that it felt like smoking.

I'm not going to lose my life here this time, am I?

"What should I do? Just leave it to fate!" he muttered.

Ji Xiaobei: …

Ji Xiaobei missed Ji Deyan and his wife so much now. Maybe he already had several wolf cubs now...

Forget it, there's no hope.

You still have to rely on yourself at critical moments.

The green light in the distance gathered more and more, and the birds perched on the treetops seemed to be startled and flew away.

A gust of cold wind blew and Ji Xiaobei shivered.

"Let's light it!" Ji Xiaobei suggested.

Li Laoguai shook his head and said, "No, I also lit a torch last time. I don't know why the wolves in Boling Mountain are not afraid of smoke or fire..."

"What should we do then?" Ji Xiaobei only knew this one solution.

This is what it says in extracurricular books: wolves are afraid of fireworks. Doesn’t this common sense apply in ancient times?

Lang Ning said, "Miss Ji, I'll lead them away, you and Uncle Li run in that direction."

Lang Ning pointed into the distance.

Ji Xiaobei denied it immediately.

"No, you can't lead so many wolves away!" said Ji Xiaobei.

Just when they didn't know what to do, the howling of wolves was heard in the distance.

The slow lights began to flicker, and soon there was a commotion in the woods, and the wolf left.

Li Laoguai sat down on the ground.

It scared me to death.

Ji Xiaobei hurriedly helped him up: "Uncle Li, are you okay?"

Li Laoguai only felt a dull pain in his legs.

"No, it's okay..." Lang Ning helped him onto the donkey.

They walked forward quickly.

It's finally dawn.

After tossing and turning all night, Ji Xiaobei pointed to the sunny hillside in front and wanted to take a rest.

Li Laoguai slipped off the donkey.

I finally felt some strength in my legs.

Ji Xiaobei sat on the hillside, regretting that he did not take the game he had roasted last night with him.

Li Laoguai opened his tattered bag with a smile and took out the greasy roast chicken and roast rabbit.

Ji Xiaobei: You are still awesome...

After eating, I took a nap and then set off.

We are already halfway there.

The remaining half is downhill, which is easier to walk than the uphill road.

When they reached the foot of the mountain, they would occasionally see refugees covered in dust passing by, holding broken clay pots in their hands. When they saw Ji Xiaobei and the others, they would reach out for food.

Ji Xiaobei waved his hands and ignored them.

There are so many people here, I really feel helpless.

Ji Xiaobei hardened his heart and walked past them.

She thought of the treasures she had seized last night.

She walked to a deserted place and took it out of her pocket.

She was stunned at first glance.

Green kissing fish!

……

Her hands were shaking, and she searched the sky for a long time before she found the red kissing fish she was carrying.

The two fish are a pair and fit together perfectly.

She stared blankly at the two fish in her hands.

Was Fu Jichang really captured by the Western Barbarians?

impossible!

Ji Xiaobei didn't believe it.

Her eyes felt a little sore, and she clenched the thing in her hand tightly and hid it in her pocket.

"Ji...Miss Ji...are you okay?" Lang Ning saw that Ji Xiaobei looked unwell, so he walked over and asked.

“Those people last night might be the group that Lord Fu encountered!”

Ji Xiaobei said, suppressing his inner sadness.

"what……"

Lang Ning stared into the distance blankly.

"What we encountered that day were cavalry, who attacked the Ye County military camp... Those people were very good at martial arts and riding and shooting. Our army was no match for them, so Master Fu..."

Li Laoguai came over and asked, "Why, why do you think so?"

Ji Xiaobei did not take out the kissing fish. It was a token of love between the two of them and she didn’t want others to see it.

She just said that among the things Lang Ning found from those people last night, one belonged to Fu Jichang.

Li Laoguai consoled her seriously, "There are many similar things in this world, girl, things are not as bad as you think. By the way, who is that Mr. Fu to you?"

Ji Xiaobei didn't want to talk.

"What about Li Yunjiong..." the old man muttered to himself.

Li Yunjiong asked her to come to him, so this girl must have a close relationship with him.

He thought that Jiong'er and Ji Xiaobei...

Oh, it seems I was overthinking it.

Ji Xiaobei is so worried about Mr. Fu’s disappearance, so it must be a different relationship.

Jiong'er, do you know?

Hey!

Li Laoguai wanted to ask but didn't dare to.

The girl in front of him was good-looking and cheerful, and he liked her very much.

Li Yunjiong has a weak personality, but he is quite intelligent. If he has a woman like this to help him, he will definitely be able to succeed.

Hey!

Forget it, forget it, let’s save Lord Fu first.

"Let's go to the military camp and ask first!" said Li Laoguai.

Lang Ning said with a bitter face: "Master He and I also want to ask, but we can't get close to the military camp! Since the incident, the military camp has been heavily guarded and no one can get close..."

After he said that, he looked at Li Laoguai pleadingly.

Li Laoguai rode on the donkey and headed out of the city.

Ji Xiaobei calmed down. No matter what, she must find Fu Jichang, either alive or dead.

Lang Ning went to find He Ye and Heita.

She followed Li Laoguai towards the military camp.

On the high protective wall in the distance, there were many people holding bows and arrows, glaring at Ji Xiaobei and Li Laoguai who were walking towards them.

"Who is down there? This is a restricted area in the military camp. Don't get close..."

Shouts came from the high wall.

"We want to see your border guard..." Ji Xiaobei shouted.

"Hurry up, hurry up, or we will shoot arrows..." The people above seemed to be deaf and drove Ji Xiaobei and the others away.
