Yun Chu casually threw away the silk handkerchief in his hand, stuffed the carved dragon blade back into the scabbard in his boot, and replied with a smile.
"secret!"
In the woods, footsteps sounded quickly.
Shen Fengchu's eyes moved slightly, and with a sway, he was already in front of Yun Chu, stretched out his arms to hook her waist, swept up to the top of the slope, and pressed her down on the grass again.
The figure flashed past, and Shangguan Wuji took the lead and rushed out of the forest. He looked around and his eyes quickly settled on the grass not far away.
"who?!"
"Nonsense!" Shen Fengchu raised his face with annoyance, "General Shangguan, do you have a grudge against me?!"
Looking at him, and then at Yun Chu, who was lying on the grass with messy shirt, Shangguan Wuji's face was hot, and he lowered his face hurriedly, "The general just heard a sound in the forest, and he was worried about the safety of the two of you, so he rushed up. Check!"
Hooking Shen Fengchu's neck and sitting up straight, Yun Chu glanced at him coldly, "Get out!"
Shangguan Wuji pursed his lips and then ordered in a deep voice, "Return to the camp!"
The phoenix riders turned around and returned, so he turned around and walked back to the woods.
Shen Fengchu hugged Yun Chu's waist and chuckled, "I'm so kind-hearted, but you can't bear it?!"
"Curious cats always die faster, and I'm doing this for his own good!" Yun Chu raised his hand and slapped away his palm on her waist, "Greedy cats also die quickly!"
Raising his hand to remove a blade of grass from her hair, Shen Fengchu picked her up and stood up, "As the old saying goes, if you die under peonies, you can be a ghost even if you die!"
"Okay!" Yun Chu nodded solemnly, "When you die, I will scatter your ashes in the embroidery garden, where there are the most peonies!"
Shen Fengchu burst into laughter.
The two took Xiaobai back to the camp and went into their tents to rest.
Everyone in Fengziying became increasingly disapproving of the two of them.
In the sky, the clouds dispersed lightly, and the moonlight spread across the valley like silver, illuminating the narrow stream flowing slowly in front of the camp and the fresh blood stains falling on the grass in the mountains behind.
The next day, after Yun Chu and Shen Fengchu had a breakfast carefully prepared by the chef, they packed up and left with everyone.
When the horse team was walking out of the valley, a person had already walked out of the woods silently. His black clothes, black hair, and black mask looked out of place in the early morning sunshine.
After looking at the corpses on the ground, and then looking far across the woods at the convoy disappearing at the end of the valley, the man in Xuanyi turned around and disappeared into the woods again.
The next three days were uneventful.
On the fourth day, Yun Chu and Shen Fengchu also arrived at Jingzhou City.
This time, the two of them took the initiative to board the ship without letting Shangguan Wuji waste any more words.
After a brief rest, the fleet set sail away from the shore.
Sitting in a wheelchair, Yun Chu leaned over the railing and stared at the waterway in front of him. He asked Shen Fengchu beside him, "How much do you know about the Pei family in Jiangnan?!"
"A large family in the south of the Yangtze River, a famous family, together with the Zhang, Han, and Qiu families, are known as the four major families in the south of the Yangtze River. In the previous dynasty, there were two prime ministers. Before, they always valued culture over martial arts. Only after Daning unified the world did they realize the importance of martial arts. , so many children were arranged to study in various sects. Pei Yuanlang, who ranked tenth on the martial arts list, was from the Pei family. Pei Yuanqing was the eldest grandson of the Pei family. His mother and Concubine Chen were biological sisters. You touched Ning Ruoxue. You humiliated Pei Yuanqing before, so they won't let you go!"
Yun Chu narrowed his eyes slightly, "So, the four Jiangnan families are destined to have one less family!"
