Riding the Pheonix Chapter 365: Reluctant to give up

Late autumn is coming, and the cold wind is gradually rising.

"Sneeze!" Hou Liang sneezed and wrapped himself in the old sheepskin.

They have been on the run for over a month. They left Tianshen Mountain and headed north and then east, bypassing Lake Noga and then heading south. The route was so twisty and dizzying.

However, Mingwei said that this only made the pursuit more difficult, and that delaying some time would not get rid of the pursuers.

Hou Liang couldn't help but regret a little, if he had known it...

"Do you regret it, sir? If you had stayed with Su Tu, you would have suffered less."

Hou Liang trembled and laughed dryly: "What are you talking about, girl? How can I, a man from the Central Plains, stay in the barbarian land and be driven away by others?"

With such an awe-inspiring look, people who didn't know it thought he was so loyal and courageous.

Mingwei smiled but didn't smile, so she didn't expose him.

Hou Liang looked at the astrolabe in her hand and asked carefully: "Miss Ming, didn't you say you don't know the way? We really won't go wrong?"

Mingwei put away the map and astrolabe and said, "If you ask me to look at the scenery to find the way, I won't have the slightest confidence. But according to the stars to find the way, it's not easy to make a mistake."

As she said that, she called Duofu: "How is it? Have you brought enough dry food?"

Duofu patted his chest: "Don't worry, miss, these dried fish and meat are enough for us to eat on the way."

Mingwei nodded: "We will leave early tomorrow morning. In ten days, we will arrive at Beitianmen and return to Guanzhong. We will not stop along the way, and everything that needs to be prepared will be prepared in the evening."

Won't stop means that besides sleeping, I am always on the road. After the two of them paid it off, Hou Liang looked a little bitter.

He is a genuine scholar! He only has some knowledge of mystical arts, and he is running around on horseback these days, and his **** is no longer his own.

Ming glanced at him slightly and said, "Sir, please ride my horse tomorrow!"

Hou Liang was stunned for a moment. Her horse? Jade lion according to the night? Hou Liang was so excited that he trembled a little: "I, can I?"

Not to mention that this horse was a gift from the young master, but just to talk about the breed of this horse, it is a famous brand that is hard to find. Hou Liang knows very well the meaning of having a good horse on the grassland. If something happens, the possibility of escaping will increase.

"Girl, girl..." Hou Liang had always considered himself a villain, and for the first time in his life, a touching emotion lingered in his heart.

Ming Wei joked: "Mr.'s literary character should exist for a while longer."

Hou Liang had a bit of a sarcastic look on his face.

The three of them packed up and slept with their clothes on by the lake.

In the middle of the night, Mingwei was woken up by the little white snake: "Sir, someone is coming!"

She pushed Duofu and Hou Liang to wake up and asked: "How many people are there? Are they chasing soldiers?"

"About a dozen people, they should be pursuers, about ten miles away from us."

For the cavalry, this distance only lasts a moment, and is no different than being right in front of them.

Duofu said: "Miss, let's leave right away!"

"It's too late." Mingwei pondered for a moment, "You run immediately, all the way south, and then we go back to Beitianmen."

Duofu asked urgently: "What about you, miss?"

Ming smiled and said: "Since Su Tu is so reluctant to leave, I have to leave him some souvenirs."

"But..."

Mingwei interrupted her: "If you two stay here, it will be difficult for me to do anything. Thank you for coming to the front to meet me. Remember the stargazing method, right? You will wait for me at Beidou."

"Miss..."

Mingwei pushed her: "Go quickly, there isn't much time."

……

Yang Shu hasn't been sleeping well lately.

I don’t know if Mingwei has been gone for a long time, but I am thinking about it. I often dream about her being chased by barbarians.

She went with the caravan to do business, right?

He thought so, but he still felt uneasy.

I woke up in the middle of the night and couldn't fall asleep, so I went to the roof to get some air.

As soon as I climbed up, I saw Ning Xiu sitting there.

"Senior brother? What are you doing?"

Ning Xiu glanced at him and uttered two words: "Stargazing."

Yang Shu sat down next to him: "You mystical men are always talking about the gods. Can you really predict bad luck by watching the stars?"

"Of course." Ning Xiu said lightly, "For example, if you have been restless these days, would you like a divination?"

"Senior brother, have you seen it?"

Ning Xiu’s face was expressionless: “You’ve been wandering around without sleep all day and midnight, can you tell?”

Yang Shu was a little embarrassed, thinking that there was no one to talk to, so he confided in him: "I've been having nightmares lately..."

"What kind of dream?"

Yang Shu gave a rough description and said, "Maybe she hasn't been back for a long time and is too worried?"

Ning Xiu's expression was very serious: "You have an unusual relationship with her now. We have good luck with each other, so we can sense it. I always have dreams like this. I'm afraid it's a bad omen, so I'd better do a fortune telling. !"

Yang Shu became nervous: "Is that so? How to calculate it?"

Ning Xiu took out a few copper coins and said: "Foretelling bad luck depends on your sincerity. Don't worry too much about the situation. With her in mind, try throwing it."

"Oh." Yang Shu took the copper coin and threw it out while thinking silently in his heart...

"Brother, how are you?"

Ning Xiu picked up the copper coins one by one and said, "You'd better go to Hu Di."

Yang Shu was stunned for a moment: "Is it serious?"

"Big evil."

After being stunned for a while, Yang Shu stood up suddenly and shouted: "Axuan!"

Hearing his voice, the boy on night duty ran over quickly: "Sir! Brother Xuan is at the front. What are your orders?"

"What is he doing out front in the middle of the night? Call him over quickly!"

"Yes."

The boy just left the courtyard~IndoMTL.com~Axuan has already hurried over there. Hearing that the young man said that the young master was in a hurry to find him, he was surprised and said, "Have you heard about it yet?"

Yang Shu came down from the roof and was stunned for a moment: "What did you hear?"

Axuan said: "The general and the man who went to Hudi are back."

Yang Shu trembled: "What happened? They are back, where is Miss Ming?"

"I was about to report to you," Ah Xuan said with a confused look on his face, "Miss Ming... something may have happened."

……

"Prince, the person is by the lake!"

Hearing the report, Su Tu whipped his horse whip: "Let's go!"

For the past few months, he has chased Mingwei from Tianshen Mountain to Lake Noga. He had definite clues yesterday. In order to catch her, he pursued her all night long. Seeing victory right in front of him, how could he let her go?

The horse galloped and soon arrived at the lake.

In the middle of the night, Lake Noga was filled with mist, the fire was half-burned, and a tent was stationed there quietly, in complete silence.

How is it possible that there is such a big movement and not even a single person?

Su Tu became suspicious and asked his men: "Have they left already?"

Just when the Hu warrior was about to reply, a child's shrill voice suddenly came from the tent: "Mom, no!"

Then there were cries and the man's low cursing, which was all nonsense.

Su Tu's expression changed and he shouted: "Who is inside? Come out?"

There were shadows shaking a few times in the tent, including children and adults, and then a chuckle came out, and Mingwei's slow voice sounded: "Seventh Prince, oh, no, maybe I should call you Prince Hu now. The eight tribes are integrated into one. The barbarians on the grassland are all your people, right? In this case, are you willing to pay something for your people?"...
