On the way just now, Mayor Pan pointed to the mountains over there and said that it was Nanwupi, also known as Guitian Mountain.
Xia Zhaoyi had long wanted to come and take a look at the Southern Wupei, but as soon as she entered Hengxiang Mansion, she was entangled in various affairs and couldn't get away.
The relationship with Nanwupi is due to the manpower recruited by Wang Fengnian, Kang Jian and Xu Yinjun in the past six months.
Since February this year, they have harvested batches after batches, and the southern Wupi is their top priority.
The most recent discovery was a corpse wearing night clothes and Li Qian's official boots that was washed down from the mountain by the spring rain in Nanwupi.
There was a coffin near the body, and a silver cup with a forward style on the body.
She originally wanted to go to Nanwupi as soon as the soldiers from the three states were gone, but unexpectedly "those people" were more anxious than she was.
When Shen Lie came with his people, he saw a clear shadow under the moon in the distance, and a beautiful woman stopped and looked south.
Hearing the commotion, Xia Zhaoyi turned around and looked, thinking that he had seen it wrong. Shen Lie got off his horse, wearing a dark purple shirt, and his tall and slender figure was outlined in the dim light.
The night wind blew away the strands of hair on her forehead and messed up his high ponytail. The fragrance of his unique smile was also brought by the night breeze.
Dai Yu and the others had all dismounted, but did not come over and watched them from a distance.
Xia Zhaoyi saw his mount Zi Yang and smiled: "You came to see me specially."
"Why don't you go back?" Shen Lie lowered his head and looked at her hand.
She was holding the baggage in one hand and holding the small oil ball lamp in the other. The water cang ribbon on the small oil ball lamp was wrapped around her finger and shortened to the minimum to prevent it from being blown by the wind.
Shen Lie's sharp eyes and dark eyes gleamed as he took her left hand.
A layer of skin on the back of the hand was rubbed away, and a lot of blood oozed out, but it had already solidified.
"Are you injured?" Shen Lie asked.
Xia Zhaoyi lowered her head. This injury was caused by her foot suddenly hanging in the air. She used her strength to step on the stone wall and jumped out of hiding on the way to the bed.
Since the other party was waiting for her to come in with the door wide open, she would naturally not be polite, but she would not let down her guard either. This gave her the fastest ability to respond.
Compared with any mechanism that can lead to death, she only shed such a thin layer of skin in the face of many dangers, and she has already made a lot of money.
From the back of his hand, Xia Zhaoyi looked at Shen Lie's long fingers with distinct phalanges.
Her hands were indeed cold, which made it even more obvious that his hands were very hot.
Xia Zhaoyi smiled faintly and picked up the baggage in the other hand: "Look, what is this?"
The strong wind blew out the shape inside the bag, which was a human head.
Shen Lie glanced at her and continued to care about her injury: "How did you get injured?"
"There are many mechanisms inside. I accidentally scraped off a layer of skin, and I found this head in that house."
Seeing her bright eyes flashing and insisting on sharing, Shen Lie had no choice but to cooperate. His dark eyes looked back at the head: "It's not a skeleton, and there's no blood on the baggage. Is this a clay sculpture?"
Xia Zhaoyi smiled: "I just love talking to smart people."
"What else was found in that house?"
"It's a long story, let's talk about it while we're walking."
The reins on Ziyang and Longying had been untied by Dai Yu and the others. After Xia Zhaoyi got on the horse, she asked Shen Lie, but she still remembered that someone wrote to Yuanhe Sect, asking her not to go to Zhenzhou or Hengxiang. .
"It seems that you have found a lot of them," Xia Zhaoyi said with a smile, "I was originally thinking that there are quite a lot of 'those people', but do so many of them live in seclusion in the mountains and be independent from the world, or do they join the world? They grew up in a crowded neighborhood. Today, it seems that they are the latter, and the Chen family is one of them."
Shen Lie said: "Since Guo Guan can go to Dongping University to work, it can be seen that he has a lot of talent and knowledge. He must be a student of a higher education institution."
"Da Yin is hiding in the city. Tomorrow I will have all the township heads of Hengxiang called into the city and ask them one by one if there are any strange families like the Chen family."
Shen Lie looked at her and said seriously: "Ah Li, you have many things to do, you can leave this matter to me."
Xia Zhaoyi thought of something, paused and said, "Shen Lie, are you... going to see Shen Xu?"
She suddenly mentioned Shen Xu, and Shen Lie's handsome face sank slightly, and he looked forward.
Xia Zhaoyi kept looking at him, opened her mouth, but stopped talking.
The moon comes and goes, and the heavy gaze is calm, light and distant.
The silent, cold, slightly unruly and solitary boy back then became more and more mature, and those calmness and calmness were engraved into his bones and turned into the aura of his body, making him always covered with frost no matter whether it was a summer night or a cold winter.
This feeling made Xia Zhaoyi's eyebrows slightly close.
It is clear that there are more and more followers around him, but he seems to be standing alone in the world, arrogant and lonely, not close to the warmth of the world.
It's not that there is no warmth, nor is it that he deliberately resists, but...it can't warm up.
"Go," Shen Lie said suddenly, "we will see you eventually."
The voice was very low, almost blown away by the wind.
Back at the Chen Family Ancestral Hall, the water is still being slowly pumped out.
Xia Zhaoyi stood on the steps, looking down at the yellow water below settling little by little.
A soldier made a lantern that drifted with the water. The water level dropped little by little, and the space below was illuminated more and more by the lantern.
