A line of carriages was driving slowly, and in front of the carriages were guards opening the way. When the winter sun set and the sky darkened, a line of carriages had arrived at a town. The town looked quite prosperous, with crowded streets and alleys, and high red lanterns.
hang.
The guard who opened the road had already booked the best inn in the town. The group stopped their horses and rested in this town for the night.
The upper room of the inn is occupied by Mu Tianxue and Long Chenyi. There are rows of guards standing in front of the inn door and in the corridor. The entire inn is tightly protected. Except for Long Chenyi and his party, there are no outsiders.
After dinner, Mu Tianxue returned to her room and moved her body. After riding in a carriage for a day, she felt that her back ached and her buttocks hurt from sitting. She was thinking of going to the inn yard to walk around for a while.
Then he saw Long Chen also enter the room, pulled her to sit in front of the table, and said: "After riding in the carriage for a day, my bones will inevitably feel a little sore. Let Yumian give you a safe pulse first, and then I will accompany you to the yard."
Walk."
"Okay" Mu Tianxue replied with a smile.
Yumian was dressed in white clothes and shengxue. After entering the room, he said respectfully: "Young Madam."
Mu Tianxue nodded with a smile, glanced at the cold and handsome jade face, stretched out her jade wrist, indicating that he could start.
This time Yumian did not use the hanging thread to diagnose the pulse, but placed his palm flat in the air above Mu Tianxue's pulse. A stream of air spread from his palm to Mu Tianxue's wrist, and then, he saw
Mu Tianxue's wrist floated in mid-air as the jade-faced palm moved up.
Mu Tianxue felt a warm current spread from her wrist to her whole body. Her wrist was sucked into the air by the airflow from Yumian's palm. After a few seconds, as Yumian's palm moved downward, her wrist also returned.
on the desktop.
Yumian took back his hand and said: "Young madam, after sitting in the carriage for a day, I have some back pain and lack of Qi and blood. Eat some ginseng soup to replenish Qi and blood, and walk around a little, and you will be fine."
Long Chen also stroked her long hair and said: "My husband has ordered someone to make ginseng soup for you. After you have stretched your body and bones, the ginseng soup will be almost ready."
Mu Tianxue smiled lightly at him, stood up and walked out of the room. Lan Yi and Zi Yi stood outside the door. In order to protect her safety, they would always guard outside her room. When they saw her coming out, they would follow her.
Keep up.
"You don't have to follow me, just stay in front of the young lady's door." Long Chen also walked out of the room and gave Lan Yi and Zi Yi instructions. After giving instructions, he caught up with Mu Tianxue and walked side by side with her.
As soon as he stepped into the courtyard, a biting cold wind rushed towards his face. Mu Tianxue shivered and shuddered. He subconsciously tightened the cloak around him, thinking to himself, the winter night is not just ordinary cold, it is quite cold.
of cold.
"Lie in my husband's arms, and I will protect you from the wind." Long Chen also put his hands on her shoulders, pulled her into his arms, and led her to walk slowly along the corridor of the courtyard.
Half an hour later, Long Chen also sent Mu Tianxue back to the room, ordered someone to bring the cooked ginseng soup, watched Mu Tianxue drink the ginseng soup, and then hugged her and lay on the bed to fall asleep.
It was an uneventful night, and both of them were probably tired, so they fell asleep until dawn.
In the early morning, there was a heavy fog outside the window, and only a vast expanse of white could be seen between the sky and the earth. The air was cold and humid, the wind was biting, and the visibility was only within a hundred meters.
After breakfast, they waited for the morning fog to dissipate a little, and the group of carriages continued on their way. Because of the foggy weather, it was even more difficult to drive, so Long Chen did not get on the carriage today, but rode on horseback to open the road in person, while Mu Tianxue stood aside alone.
Leaning on the soft cushion, he picked up a book and started reading it.
After reading for a while, she took a deep breath. This long journey, only one day had passed, was already very painful for her. How should she survive the next month or so? She put the book aside and opened the car.
She put her head out of the window and looked at the front of the carriage.
It was foggy and it was difficult to see the road ahead. Long Chen was also riding on horseback, wearing a dark cloak, looming in the fog. The figures of the people accompanying him were all blurred. It seemed that the clouds
In the mist, there is a feeling of being in another world.
Mu Tianxue retracted her head back to the carriage and opened the curtain. The cold wind blew on her face, which hurt like a knife. She frowned. She wanted to sit on the horse driving seat with Lan Yi, but she could still say
She said a few words, but the biting cold wind made her give up the idea.
"Young madam, hurry up and get in the carriage. It's very windy and frosty outside. If you need anything, just tell your subordinates." Lan Yi was driving the horse and said with concern when he saw Mu Tianxue opening the curtain of the car.
"Oh! I'm fine." Mu Tianxue saw that Lan Yi's cheeks were red from the cold, her lips were unusually pale, and her hair was covered in frost. She took off her cloak and put it on her body, saying: "
Put on your cloak, the frost is too strong and it will be very cold if you drive your horse into the wind."
"Thank you, Madam, for your love. This subordinate is not cold. Madam is weak and can't get the cold wind. It's better to get in the carriage quickly!" Lan Yi said while riding the horse: "My martial arts practitioners have their own internal strength to protect themselves.
Madam, there is no need to worry about your subordinates."
Seeing that she refused, Mu Tianxue said no more, took back the cloak, put it on himself again, then returned to the horse, picked up the bed of cotton wool and threw it to Lan Yi, saying: "You are driving now.
If your horse is frozen, there may be danger at any time. For the safety of my life, I order you to wrap yourself in cotton wool."
After Mu Tianxue finished speaking, she returned to the carriage. Lan Yi picked up the cotton wool, smiled, and said gratefully: "Thank you, Master!"
The temperature outside the carriage and inside the carriage are simply worlds apart. Outside it is ice and snow, filled with mist, and the cold wind is as cold as a knife. Although Lan Yi is a martial arts practitioner, even if he has internal power to protect his body, he cannot withstand this cold wind.
The cotton wool Mu Tianxue gave her helped her resist a lot of cold air, and she didn't feel as cold as before. This warmed her heart and she was quite grateful.
Mu Tianxue was leaning on the soft cushion, closing her eyes and concentrating. After some time, she vaguely heard the sound of rapid horse hooves coming from outside the carriage. The carriage she was sitting in also stopped, and then she heard Long Chen also
He ordered in a cold voice: "Lan Yi, Zi Yi, protect the young lady, and kill anyone who approaches the carriage."
"I respect your order," Lan Yi and Zi Yi's respectful voices sounded outside the carriage.
Mu Tianxue opened her eyes fiercely, knowing that something must be happening ahead. She was about to open the curtain to explore the situation, but Long Chen had already opened the curtain first, looked at her and said with concern: "You should stay well in the carriage.
Wait, don't get off the carriage, Lan Yi, Zi Yi and Lin Yue'er will protect you outside the carriage."
"What happened?" Mu Tianxue asked. She had already guessed that a killer might have appeared. With the current foggy weather, it was most convenient for the killer to ambush. Even if they knew there was a killer, they could only prevent it but could not prevent it.
Be the main attack.
"It's nothing. The wind and fog are too strong to continue on the road. The carriage team has temporarily stopped to rest." Long Chen also said with concern: "Just stay in the carriage. Your body bones cannot withstand the wind and frost erosion outside the carriage, so don't
Out".
"Yes." Mu Tianxue nodded and said with concern, "You should also pay attention to safety."
Long Chen also gave her a reassuring smile, put down the car curtain, got on his horse, and headed towards the front of the motorcade.
Mu Tianxue tightened her cloak tightly and lifted all the curtains of the car window. Standing outside the car window was Lan Yi with a wary look on her face. She cast her eyes forward and saw only black shadows flashing in the heavy fog ahead, and there was a slight sound.
The sound of killing and the sound of swords trying to touch each other.
"As expected, there really is a killer ambushing me," Mu Tianxue murmured softly, his sharp eyes staring coldly ahead.
At this moment, a poisonous arrow pierced the sky with a swish, and shot in the direction of Mu Tianxue.
