Ye Chuyun came to discuss with Lu Jie.

Gu Lin set off to leave the Valley of the Evil.Just when Shen Xiao was going to Heigobi to deal with the mines left by the Sun Moon Cliff, and there was no one in Cold Wind Castle and Mo Yu couldn't get away, so Gu Lin asked Ying to take over as a temporary substitute.Now is not the war period, it can only be said that Gu Lin disappeared from Ye Chuyun's eyes at a very precise time point.The depressed young master who was idle in the Valley of the Wicked could only run to Lu Jie to compete, and get back up after losing, and get back up again after losing.Two people who are good at hand-to-hand combat collide with knife handles almost all day long on the open space outside the house.

Tang He, who was arranged next door by Lu Jie, thought the voice was too annoying, so he went out quietly, left Liefengji and found a quiet place.

Tang He leaned his head and closed his eyes under the dead tree of Beggar Wangpo outside the east gate of Liefengji, concentrating on it. By the way, he used the trick of floating light to hide his tracks.

The occasional breeze is not eye-catching, but the biting chill in the wind is very real.The dead wood on the barren land was originally bare without leaves, and now it’s nearly deep winter, and there are cracks growing on the trunk like coils. It seems that as long as a little more force is applied, the cracks will swallow up the already dead tree. life.

After standing here for a long time, watching the unattractive sky gradually turn overcast, under the dark clouds that covered the sky, the land under my feet became more and more desolate.

It is a completely different landscape from the Haoqi League in my heart.There is no Longyin Mountain, which is green all the year round, there is no Lishui River that is crystal clear, and there is no big banner with the words "Great spirit forever" waving on the volley plank road.

It is ironic to say that since entering the Valley of the Evil, Lu Jie has not restricted his freedom of movement, but he has lost all contact with the previous liaison officers of the Haoqi League in the Yinyuanhui.Even though he was not imprisoned for torture, and no one forced him to work for the wicked, Tang He was still full of courage, but the wings used to fly had been broken, and invisible shackles locked him in this golden cage called the Valley of the Wicked.

"...?"

Tang He's meditation was interrupted by the approaching breath from behind. In an instant, Tang He pulled out the hidden weapon and held it on his fingertips. He opened his eyes and followed the direction of the movement, holding his breath until something approached behind him little by little. .

When the hidden weapon was about to be released, Tang He was taken aback for a moment, and something leaned against his feet—Tang He lowered his head in doubt, and saw a small white fluffy thing.

cat?

Tang He withdrew his vigilance and withdrew his hidden weapon.

I don't know where the cat came from, with snow-white fur, a copper bell tied around its neck, and its small cheeks gently rubbed against Tang He's calf.

Tang He hid his figure, but now because of this cat, Tang He had to show up temporarily.When Tang He opened his lips, hesitating what to do with the cat, the cat raised its head, as if it had noticed Tang He's gaze.

"Meow--"

Very cute and beautiful cat, but not flattering.Because Tang He saw the pair of cat pupils with different colors.The bright blue and golden yellow always reminded him of the cat-like mysterious person with the same strange-colored pupils and silver-white curly hair.

While hesitating, water droplets fell on the back of his neck.

It was raining, though only a few drizzles.Qu Xi, who healed him, told him that although the Valley of the Wicked is located in the extreme north, it basically rains when the wind stops.Every time it rains like this without any feeling, and it only rains for two or three hours at most.

The nearby air has somehow become damp, not as refreshing as the moisture from the Haoqi League.

Tang He sighed softly, bent down, and hugged the cat, covering the cat's snow-white fur with his arms and palms, still leaning against the tree, staring at the sky ecstatically.

I don't know how long I've been in a daze like this, maybe it's already night.There is not much difference in day and night weather in the Valley of the Evil, because it is dark and closed.The quiet cat in his arms suddenly whined softly, moved its soft ears, and moved its paws to borrow Tang He's arm.Tang He noticed the cat's movement and stood up straight. The cat jumped down lightly, and trotted two steps in the direction behind Tang He.

Tang He followed the cat and looked over. The cat stopped not far away, and whoever was standing there squatted down, reaching out and gently stroking the cat's snow-white fur.

Looking along those hands, the man stood up holding the cat and walked towards him.

Someone as mysterious as a cat...

Appearing in my life inexplicably, sometimes close and sometimes far away, I can't figure out what he is thinking in his heart, and I don't know whether he is hurting or protecting himself.

"This is my cat." Lu Jie smiled, "It seems to like you a lot."

Tang He didn't answer, but just straightened his face again, turned his back and leaned back against the tree trunk.Lu Jie didn't walk in front of him, but stopped and leaned against the tree trunk behind him.

"I coaxed the young master back."

During the silence, Lu Jie occasionally uttered a sentence or two, but Tang He didn't intend to make a sound, as if what Lu Jie said had nothing to do with him at all, and Lu Jie's voice could only be said to be inconsistent. .

After Lu Jie's voice disappeared for a long time, Tang He said indifferently, "Are you here to bring me back to Liefengji?"

"Do not."

The cat got into Lu Jie's chest, and Mingjiao's spacious robe was just enough to create a small space for the cat to hide from the rain. Lu Jie stretched out his hand to tease the cat, and his gentle voice fell into the drizzle. "I just came to find my cat."

If you just came to look for the cat, why do you have to accompany yourself in the rain now.Branches stretching out into sight, raindrops falling from a height, a gloomy sky.Tang He couldn't see what Lu Jie was doing across the trunk of the big tree, and he could probably guess that people who also like to hide in the dark are now silently hiding their tracks.

Really... boring two people.Tang He admitted.

"Does that cat have a name?" Tang He asked.

"No."

The cat in Lu Jie's arms raised its head and blinked its bright eyes at Lu Jie, and gave a coquettish "meow". "If you are free, how about giving it a name?"

"No." Tang He immediately refused.

Tang He couldn't understand what he was doing at the moment.

On the first day after being kidnapped to the Valley of the Evil, he was only thinking about how to escape from here, get in touch with the people of the Haoqi League, and return to the Haoqi League.After gradually realizing that none of these methods would work, in order to survive, he had to suppress his own thoughts, so as to prevent Mo Yu and other leaders from becoming suspicious and causing fights.

So staying by Lu Jie's side now is his best choice, even though he is reluctant.Tang He knew that his nature was rational and pragmatic, and he could accept it no matter what the situation was if he calmly judged that it was beneficial to him.

Tang He lowered his eyes, he really didn't understand what Lu Jie wanted to do, but judging from the current situation, Lu Jie would not further harm himself.Then, if he can take advantage of Lu Jie's protection to allow himself to survive in this Valley of the Evil, maybe one day in the long run he will be able to see hope.

The road from Kunlun to Heigobi is neither far nor near, and it will take three days at a fast pace.On the way, they boarded in Changlefang overnight, but after arriving at Feisha Pass in Longmen, a sandstorm blew up on the desert in the middle of winter night.Shen Xiao and the others had to shut down in Feisha for another two days. After the sandstorm stopped, they crossed the Longmen Desert on the fourth day and arrived at Heigobi in the evening.

Similar to Longmen Desert, Black Gobi is also a barren land, but the landscape is completely different from Longmen Desert.In the boundary of the Black Gobi, the ground is not the soft yellow sand like Longmen, but the hard gray soil and black stones, which only give people a feeling of depression and loneliness.

Originally, I walked along the official road, but on the way to the official road, it seemed that the road was covered by black sand, and the road was covered by black sand, and the shadow of the official road could not be seen.

The two slowed down the speed of their journey. This place was unfamiliar to them. If they galloped without a direction, it would be a waste of energy. Now they could only look around while looking for traces of the village.

"Ah Xiao," Ye Junqian called Shen Xiao who was not far away from him, Shen Xiao took the reins, and another horse trotted over, Ye Junqian pointed forward, "There seems to be a lake there."

"Go and see."

Shen Xiao nodded and took Ye Junqian to the direction of the lake. When he got closer, he saw that it was really a big lake.

"I'm going to replenish water."

Ye Junqian found out the water bag and was about to get off the horse, but Shen Xiao stopped him with his hand. "Wait." Shen Xiao gestured around the shore of the lake, turned around and explained to Ye Junqian: "I'm afraid the water in it is not drinkable."

Ye Junqian followed Shen Xiao's gaze, there were only stones by the lake, not even a speck of moss, and there were no people around.It stands to reason that where there is water in the desert, there must be villages living near the water. Now it seems that this lake can only be a sea of ​​bitterness.

"Let's go back along the road."

"Yes." Ye Junqian followed behind Shen Xiao.

Horseshoe marks can't be left on hard soil and stones, and Sinan is useless in the unfamiliar northwest region.The passing places can only be marked with weapons on the ground, but fortunately there is no wind on this day.

After the official road was disconnected, the two wandered on the Gobi, unknowingly entered the night, and could not see the distance at night, and it was difficult to find the marks made along the way.It looks like today is going to sleep in the wilderness for a while.

Shen Xiao and the others found a relatively tall pile of stones, and took a rest under the pile of stones.There were almost no trees around, only thorns and dwarf trees here and there. After wandering around for a long time, Ye Junqian finally brought back some branches, piled them on the ground and pressed them with small stones, barely set them ablaze with flint. fire.

It is not as hot as Longmen in the daytime, but much cooler than Longmen at night.From the luggage carried by the horse, Shen Xiao dug out the sable fur to keep out the cold and put it on Ye Junqian. Fortunately, he replenished the dry food when he passed Feisha Pass, and no matter how unlucky he was, he could last for a long time.

But Shen Xiao didn't think they would be "unlucky" people.

The horse rested behind it, Shen Xiao and Ye Junqian pillowed on the horse's back.Ye Junqian shook off the cloak that Shen Xiao had untied, and wrapped them together with Diao Qiu.There was a crackling sound from the bonfire beside him, and after an unknown amount of time, the bonfire gradually extinguished halfway, and a plume of smoke rose straight into the field of vision.

Behind the wisp of smoke, the clear night sky on the Gobi Desert is reflected in my eyes.There is no moon tonight, and the pitch-black night is dotted with stars. The silvery and delicate light shines overhead, and the tiny stars gather to form a sea, such a beautiful scenery that the Central Plains will never see.

Although I grew up in the Western Regions when I was young, most of the night sky in my memory is bright moon hanging high.After growing up, Ye Junqian stayed in the Central Plains all the time, under the arrangement of his master Jiang Chuan in the Haoqi League, he has been stationed in Luoyan City for many years, and the already gentle Ye Junqian rarely left Nanping Mountain.Every time I heard that Shen Xiao and Jiang Chuan went north to Longmen Desert, Rongtian Ridge, Kunlun and other places, Ye Junqian always yearned for it.Now I can finally come together with Shen Xiao to these places that only exist in rumors and have never seen with my own eyes, and see these scenery that I have never seen in Haoqi League.

For some reason, there was no feeling of excitement or excitement, Ye Junqian's heart didn't have any ups and downs, it was just as peaceful as a lake.While looking at the starry sky in a daze, Ye Junqian recalled the wave light floating on the eaves that Ye Ying brought him to see when he left the customs. Ye Ying said that he needed to find the source of peace of mind.

Now Shen Xiao is by his side.
