Dreaming of Peach Blossoms

45

When the voices of the crowd died down, the two dared to surface.

Lin Peiyan was injured and his whole body was weak, so he had to be weakly held in this man's arms.

"Cough..." Lin Peiyan covered his mouth with his hands and coughed lightly. He just choked on water, and after all, he felt a little uncomfortable.

There was also the moment of kissing in the water, although he knew that Cheng Mozhao was trying to save him from choking on the water, but still some inexplicable emotions spread in his heart.

Cheng Mozhao simply bandaged the wound on his arm, but now that it was soaked in water, it was bleeding.Fortunately, the sky was so dark that no one could see the strangeness in the water.

After finally getting better, Lin Peiyan raised his face to look at Cheng Mozhao, then lowered his eyes and asked, "Why are you here?"

Cheng Mozhao just smiled and brushed the wet hair on Lin Peiyan's cheeks, "When Heiyu brought you back, he sent me a letter from Feige, but you haven't entered the city for a long time. I will of course be informed of unusual circumstances."

Lin Peiyan sat up slightly, he had recovered a lot and no longer coughed.Cheng Mozhao risked his life to save his life over and over again, no matter how reluctant he was, he couldn't forget this kindness of life and death.

only……

"But aren't you fighting floods in the south, how can you sneak into the southern border?" Lin Peiyan asked very puzzled.

Cheng Mozhao didn't care about the embarrassment of the two, but turned up his mouth and smiled slightly: "Isn't there Ning Wanyu? I just ordered my confidants to pretend to be me in that tent and pretend to be sick. Ning Wanyu can't wait for it Can't see me."

The cool wind blew past, and Lin Peiyan felt the coolness. The wet clothes were heavy and damp, and it was extremely uncomfortable.

He turned his face slightly, and said in a very soft voice: "Thank you."

Cheng Mozhao clearly heard it, but pretended to miss it, and asked on purpose: "What?"

Lin Peiyan knew that he did it on purpose, so she raised her face and glared at him with lowered eyes.

Suddenly the branches and leaves moved slightly in the distance, and some small and light sounds came to Cheng Mo Zhao's ears.His brows and eyes moved slightly, as if he had noticed something.

I saw Cheng Mozhao holding Lin Peiyan's back with one hand, and passing through his knees with the other to lift him up horizontally.

Lin Peiyan managed to suppress the exclamation in his throat, only in time to grab the sleeve of the person in front of him.He seemed very dissatisfied with Cheng Mo Zhao holding him like this, frowned slightly and thought about it.

"what are you doing……"

"My people are here, go back and change this clothes first, and your wound."

Cheng Mozhao patted Lin Peiyan's back lightly, as if trying to calm him down, but he clearly felt the tension in his arms.I saw him laughing, tapped his toes, and prepared to have a round with his confidants.

Cheng Mozhao brought Lin Peiyan back to a village, which also looked flawless from the outside, and the clothes worn by the people inside were no different from those of the local people.But here is not the same place as Gao Ze and the others.

Lin Peiyan took a hot bath and changed Miao Jiang's clothes.Cheng Mozhao invited an old witch doctor to treat him.Lin Peiyan just frowned and watched in silence as the old witch doctor with gray beard applied the medicine and bandaged her, then opened the door and left.

He raised his eyes and looked at Cheng Mo Zhao with a little puzzlement.

Cheng Mozhao saw him looking at him, those beautiful round eyes made people itch even if they stared at him.

He seemed to have seen through Lin Peiyan's thoughts, sat on the edge of the bed with a light smile and comforted him: "I know what you're thinking. But don't worry, this village was originally a gathering of people who were kicked out because they opposed the cruel and heartless envoy. If we hide here and change into the clothes here, we will naturally not be noticed. Lu Wu is arrogant and arrogant, and he will not care about these rubbish tribes abandoned by him."

"I don't really care, but if you lose a little bit, I'm afraid the emperor will blame me in the end."

Cheng Mozhao's eyes darkened when he heard the words, "I know that the emperor wants you to get the battle map is just an excuse to embarrass you, but don't worry, Xiaoyan, I will definitely get it for you."

Lin Peiyan bit her lip, remained silent for a while, and finally frowned and said, "Why do you do this, you don't need to take care of my affairs."

"I know you're still blaming me...you're still hating me, but don't be arrogant, just listen to me this time."

Looking at such inexplicably stubborn Lin Peiyan, Cheng Mozhao just wanted to reach out and rub his hair, but he still restrained his impulse very well.

"In case something happens to you, Cheng Moqi won't let me go. Why don't you put yourself in danger."

Cheng Mozhao laughed when he heard the words, "I already have a detailed plan, Xiaoyan, can you have some confidence in me?"

Seeing his appearance, Lin Peiyan knew it would be useless to talk too much, so she pulled the quilt and lay down with her back to Cheng Mozhao.This was not enough, so I had to pull the quilt over my head to cover my face.

Seeing his appearance, Cheng Mozhao shook his head slightly.He rubbed Lin Peiyan's head through the quilt, and ran out as if to escape before Lin Peiyan lifted the quilt and went mad.

Lin Peiyan stayed in the village for two days to recuperate from his injuries, and then the day for the sacrificial ceremony came.

Cheng Mozhao wanted Lin Peiyan to wait in the village with peace of mind, but Lin Peiyan refused when his temper came up.

As far as he is concerned, this problem was thrown to him by the emperor, and he couldn't easily pick himself out just because Cheng Mozhao took it over by force.

Cheng Mozhao really couldn't resist him, so he was silent for a while before saying: "Then you stay in the carriage in the back mountain forest, and when I get the battle plan, we will go straight back to Chang'an."

He originally planned that it would be safer for Lin Peiyan to stay in the village, as long as he got the battle plan and rushed back to the village to pick him up.But since Lin Peiyan must go with him, it doesn't matter if he skips the step of going back to the stockade.As long as he sends someone to protect Lin Peiyan, he can fight with peace of mind.

The dilapidated carriage and a white horse were hidden in the hidden forest. The sacrificial ceremony began in the evening. The sky was already dark, the moon was bright and the stars were sparse. Lin Peiyan sat quietly in the carriage, wondering what was going on.

Cheng Mozhao and his confidants had already left the forest, he was the only one left in the big forest, except for the chirping of cicadas and insects, everything around was extremely quiet.

Suddenly there was a slight noise outside, Lin Peiyan frowned and was about to lean forward to see who it was, but he never thought that a familiar face would suddenly appear in front of him.

"Gao Ze?" Lin Peiyan was slightly stunned, and subconsciously asked, "Why are you here?"

Gao Ze didn't bring anyone with him, he was actually alone now.

"Of course King Ning asked me to protect you."

Lin Peiyan's eyes moved slightly, "You protect me?"

Gao Ze was sitting outside the carriage, raised his chin slightly and looked at Lin Peiyan with lowered eyebrows, "I originally wanted to go in with them. After all, I am strong in martial arts and reliable. Who knew he would insist on me protecting you. Tomorrow Knowing it's safe is an overkill."

Lin Peiyan naturally heard the dissatisfaction in his words, but didn't he helplessly wait with him in the forest?Lin Peiyan turned his face sideways to hide his smile, and suddenly asked as if thinking of something: "How about the guard who was injured that day?"

"It's all right. I'll let him go back to Chang'an with the tea delivery man. The other one is buried."

"That's good." Lin Peiyan lowered his eyes and stopped talking.

The bonfires and singing on the hilltop in the distance are so lively, while the forest is quiet and hidden.

Suddenly, a chaotic crow call broke the tranquility.

The sound of chaotic footsteps echoed again and again, and there seemed to be some chaotic human voices in the distance.

Lin Peiyan had already leaned out nervously. He also looked very disturbed when he saw Gao Ze's expression, and he was afraid that something was wrong.

A figure finally appeared on the other side of the forest, although he stumbled, but under the cold moonlight, Lin Peiyan could vaguely see that the person was Cheng Mozhao.

It's just that Cheng Mozhao is in such a state of distress, the three subordinates he brought with him have lost two of them, and he and the last subordinate also escaped from those traps and poisons with all their might.

And both of them also lost their lottery. Fortunately, the battle plan has been obtained, so this trip is worthwhile.

That Lu Wu really had a vicious mind, and it was not enough to put so many fake battle plans, so he designed the secret room as a terrifying place where countless traps and poisons existed.

Seeing Mo Zhao's bruised appearance, Lin Peiyan couldn't help but tighten his heart. He secretly gritted his teeth and helped the two injured people into the carriage.Seeing this, Gao Ze clicked his tongue softly, took the horse rope, and drove the two horses back.

However, it was too late, their actions had already alarmed Lu Wu, and now the forest was already full of pursuers.The flames filled the sky, and the voices of people were so loud that Gao Ze had no choice but to tighten his horse rope and rush to his death.

Lin Peiyan hurriedly unpacked the luggage, tore off the clean clothes and made cloth strips to bandage the two of them.The guard had already passed out, but Cheng Mozhao was still somewhat conscious.

Cheng Mozhao coughed up a mouthful of blood, but he was still smiling. He reached out and took out the jade silk from his bosom, intending to hand it to Lin Peiyan.

"This is?" Lin Peiyan didn't take it, but just looked at him with a frown.

"The battle map, I got it after all. Ahem——" Cheng Mozhao's injuries were not serious, but luckily he was not poisoned by Gu poison, they were all skin traumas.It's just that because of the serious injury, the whole person is a little dizzy.

"Take it first, rest well...we'll talk about it when we return to Chang'an."

Lin Peiyan opened the window and saw the flames behind the car, he gritted his teeth secretly, feeling bad, if he continues like this, he will always be overtaken.

Lin Peiyan suddenly saw the fire pocket in the bundle, as if thinking of something.Taking advantage of no one's attention, he stuffed the fire pocket into his sleeve.

Cheng Mozhao took off his clothes so that he could apply medicine to bandage him. When he raised his eyes, Lin Peiyan actually saw the peach blossom and jade in this man's neck.This situation made him stunned on the spot.

Cheng Mozhao was already unconscious at this time, so he naturally didn't notice that Lin Peiyan was staring at his jade pendant blankly.

Lin Peiyan gritted her teeth, stretched out her hand to grab the jade pendant and tore off the red thread, and took advantage of the opportunity to stuff the jade pendant into her bosom again.

He raised his eyes and glanced at Cheng Mozhao, his voice was still as soft and pleasant as when he first saw him: "If no one lures the pursuers away, no one can leave. That's fine, just treat it as if I repay your kindness for saving me, Cheng Mo Zhao, there will be no future."

Just before Cheng Mozhao was about to pass out, he vaguely saw Lin Peiyan's resolute back.

Cheng Mozhao stretched out his hand and grabbed nothing left, murmured "Don't go away" and passed out.

Lin Peiyan had already grabbed the clothes in the bundle and opened the door curtain. He quickly lit the torch and the clothes, and snatched the reins of the white horse when Gao Ze had no time to take care of it.

With a little bit of fire, he rode Juechen and chose the opposite path to the carriage.
