83. Chapter 83 Encountering an old friend by chance 2
But in the final analysis...she is just a girl who just got haircuts!
When did Bei Mingyue become so... heart-broken?
Bei Minghao sighed heavily, his fingers clenched into fists trembling slightly. After a long time, he finally made a decision.
"General Xi, pass on my secret order to secretly execute those soldiers who have been poisoned by the insect poison!"
…
As Nangong Lin walked out of the military camp in Luocheng, Bei Mingyue breathed a sigh of relief. She looked up and saw that Nangong Lin had turned around, looking at her with a pair of deep maroon eyes. She couldn't help but shuddered secretly, but the expression on her face was still light.
, "What's wrong, Lin?"
"Ayue, do you feel..."
Nangong Lin took a deep look at her, his eyes fell on her fingers gently holding the corner of her clothes, and his voice was almost inaudible, "You seem to have changed a lot."
Bei Mingyue's heart skipped a beat. Why? Could it be that her recent behavior was so different from before that Nangong Lin discovered something?
"What are you talking about? I'm still the same, but...after experiencing Xi Zimu's murder and Qing Yuan's betrayal, I don't want to be that stupid princess who is secretly bullied anymore."
Admittedly, Bei Mingyue's reason was perfect and indeed in line with her current situation, but Nangong Lin just felt that something was not right. Before she could think clearly, Bei Mingyue had already walked out, muttering,
"I'm really nagging you. If you don't leave quickly, Zixun is still waiting for us outside the city."
Bei Mingyue had left Zixun at the inn outside the south city gate because she was afraid of danger when entering Luo City. If Nangong Lin hadn't reminded her just now, she would have almost forgotten Zixun there.
It has been more than ten hours since they entered the city. Zixun is afraid that they should be impatient. They have to hurry over, rest at the inn overnight, and rush back to Nanli Country tomorrow!
"Zixun, we are back."
Bei Mingyue's footsteps were like flying. She rushed up to the guest room on the second floor in three or two steps and opened the door. She thought that Zixun would be running around in the room anxiously, but what she saw was full of darkness, as if no one lived here at all.
Pass.
Bei Mingyue's eyes darkened deeply, her lips pursed slightly, and she raised her hand. The flint flew out along her hand and accurately grazed the candle on the table in the room. The weak flame instantly illuminated the room.
A small and humble room.
Although the room was small and crude, it was still spotless. Apparently no one lived in it at all, but before entering the city, she clearly placed Zixun here...
"What's wrong? Isn't Zixun in the room?"
Nangong Lin came from behind and saw the furnishings in the room. He was stunned for a moment, and his dark maroon eyes also darkened. He turned around and walked downstairs, "I'll take a look around here. Maybe Zixun is greedy."
You might as well have gone somewhere, but you're just waiting here."
Nangong Lin hurriedly walked around the inn, but did not find Zixun's figure. He turned and looked at the candlelight-lit second floor. He shook his hand with the bamboo whistle that was short in his heart, and suddenly moved toward a tree not far away.
Walk under the tree, go around to the back of the tree, lean against the trunk, close your eyes, and blow the wind gently.
A melodious and cheerful whistle floated out from the bamboo whistle. The sound was mixed with internal energy and was enough to spread far and wide. But no matter how he blew, the surroundings were quiet and no one appeared.
