Wishful Things

Earlier when she revealed that "dream" to Wu Chao, Wu Chao had said bluntly that he doubted that it was an accident—although the reason he gave was that he was very good at riding, so it would not have happened like this Mistake.

And according to his temperament, since he has doubts, he must pay more attention secretly.

"I have something important to do today." Wu Chao said to her, "It's just that I'm not sure if this matter is related to the disaster Miss Xu dreamed about—"

"Oh?" Xu Mingyi looked at him seriously, waiting for him to continue.

"Miss Xu, do you still remember the time when I encountered thieves on the way to Beijing and almost died?"

After asking this sentence, Wu Chao realized that it was too much.

When he encountered this incident, he was rescued by Zhen Guogong.

It was also because of this that she was almost overjoyed for Xu Mingyi.

Of course she remembered such a thing.

But now thinking of this old incident, the young man couldn't help but feel a little complicated.

At that time, because he didn't have to cheer for her, he was secretly relieved - it turned out that that was the real youth and ignorance.

Now that I think about General Xu's "young man, it's a pity you don't have this chance" look in his eyes, I think it fits my mood very well.

There is nothing more ridiculous than this.

He thought a lot, but only wanted to listen to the business, and Xu Mingyi, who had nothing else to do, didn't think too much, looked at him and nodded, and said: "I remember, but what did you find out?"

In the last life, this matter seems to have been fruitless.

On the surface it is said to be a bandit, but whoever it is, will inevitably have to think a little more.

"When I entered Beijing, I brought a follower with me named Suishan. Before I fell into a coma, I saw him block a knife for me, and I also heard afterwards that he died protecting me."

Wu Chao said: "This person has been with me for many years. He was responsible for the daily life on the way to Beijing. After thinking about it for a long time, I vaguely felt that this person was suspicious, so I asked someone to inspect his body. There was indeed something suspicious about the body—so I suspect he may have escaped."

Xu Mingyi was a little surprised.

In other words, when Wu Chao had an accident, it was very likely that there was a mole around him?

"Afterwards, I sent Mr. Fang and Sui Jiang to investigate the matter together, and we found some clues. He is very likely to be alive." Wu Chao said, "Today, I am going to confirm this matter."

Ruo Suishan is indeed not dead, as long as he is found, the truth will be close.

While Wu Chao was speaking, there were light and quick footsteps going up to the second floor.

After a while, there was a knock on the door of the private room.

"It's Sui Jiang." Wu Chao looked at Xu Mingyi and said, "It's time to leave the city. After I finish my work, I will go to Yinxian Tower to find you."

They spent a lot of time going back and forth for this breakfast, and it was half an hour before noon.

Depart at this time, just in time to arrive before or after dark.

Xu Mingyi nodded first.

Seeing him standing up, he suddenly asked again: "You said just now that you are going out of the city, is the place you are going far away?"

I don't know why she asked this, but the young man still answered carefully: "I want to go to Xiling Mountain, which is about two hundred miles away from the city."

Xiling Mountain?

Xu Mingyi vaguely felt that he had dreamed about Wu Chao's falling from a horse in Xiling Mountain...

"...Want to take the mountain road?" She stood up and asked, "Are you going on a horse?"

Wu Chao nodded.

The mountain roads are so narrow that it is difficult for a carriage to pass and is eye-catching. Of course, it is a horse.

"Then take me with you." Xu Mingyi looked at him and said seriously.

Many things in this life have changed because of her. Regardless of whether Wu Chao's accident in the previous life was accidental or man-made, it is hard to say whether this disaster will happen to him in a different way.

Especially when riding a horse on a mountain road——

She felt terrified when she heard it, and even wanted to tie him here with a rope.

But I can only think about it.

Not to mention whether he can be beaten or not, whether he can be tied or not, but he is going to do something very important, and she, an outsider, has no reason to stop him from going because of emotion and reason.

That being the case, it would be better for her to follow the past.

Looking at it in front of your eyes, you can always feel at ease.

Anyway, he just explained the ins and outs of the matter to her, so it can be seen that he has no intention of hiding it from her, so if she follows, there is no chance that she will spy on something she shouldn't know.

Wu Chao was stunned when he heard that.

She is going with him?

This is... worried about him?

There was joy and warmth in his heart, but he still said: "It's too cold in the mountains, wait for me to come back, I will be careful."

"I'm not afraid of the cold." Xu Mingyi insisted: "My riding skills are not bad, so I won't delay your journey, let alone hinder you from doing things."

Looking at each other, Wu Chao only hesitated for a moment, then nodded.

It is said that the girl's face is thin, and he really can't say the words of rejecting her again and again - but he was clearly a man of one word in the past, and it is even more impossible for him to be soft and hard.

But in the end, there is only one she is an exception, and there will be no second one in the future, since there is only one, and she can still be taken care of.

Wu Shisun thought without principle.

Seeing that the two came out together, and his grandson let the girl who disguised as a man get on the horse again, Sui Jiang felt mixed feelings.

Even for such an important matter, does the master want to take this girl with him?

You know, the master has always kept this matter a secret, and even he only learned about the plan yesterday, and from the beginning to the end, even the prince didn't know about it—the master just told this girl so easily?

more importantly--

The girl has ridden his horse, how will he get there?

He is not Tianmu—he has no wings and cannot fly!

Sui Jiang felt that he was being difficult.

At this time, Xiao Qi, who thought he was always used because of his eyelids, came over and whispered: "You ride my horse, the young master told me to follow behind and drive the cart."

Only then did Sui Jiang feel a little comforted.

At least he wasn't the one driving the car behind.

The group quickly left the city and headed towards Xiling Mountain.

After halfway down the mountain road, in a hidden place, several people got off their horses and walked instead.

In winter, the sun sets early, and the surroundings are already dark at this time.

Are people in the mountains? ——Xu Mingyi walked lightly, feeling a little doubtful in his heart.

This place is a forest, no matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like a place where people live.

Since he didn't live here for a long time, how could Wu Chao be sure that the other party would enter the mountain today?

And now it's night, will people have already left?

But she didn't ask much.

She came here just to be responsible for keeping him safe, and for the rest, I believe he has his own balance.

There is a wind in the mountain, and from time to time, the dead leaves are rolled up and pass through the mountain, making a sound of "Woo-woo". It is colder, but it is also just right to cover up the movements of the people entering the mountain.

As Xu Mingyi was walking, suddenly, Wu Chao stretched out his hand to stop her.

She understood immediately, stopped, and held her breath to look around.

It was pitch black all around, only the sound of wind in the forest.

wrong.

It seems that there is more than just wind...
