Dayong Nu sentenced to death

Chapter 45 Shrink the ground into an inch, doubt!

There are many mountains, rivers and dense forests in the south of Dayong, especially Yunzhou.

Su Rao and others climbed over mountains and ridges, and the vegetation gradually became thinner as they went deeper, and finally found traces of a large group of people and horses active near a certain mountain range.

"Strange, the weeds in this area are too lush, almost covering the calf."

Shi Yi looked around and muttered in a low voice.

It wasn't just him, Su Rao and Yan Yun also noticed the abnormality a long time ago. Su Rao jumped off the horse, squatted down to brush away the weeds, rubbed some soil with her fingertips, observed for a while, and looked back: "It's sandy loam, and it's not the same as stones." What they found on the soles of their feet was the same."

Yan Yun also said: "It is said in "Miscellaneous Notes on Nuggets" that most of the gold mines come from the southwest, and they are often accompanied by plants such as wattle and Luoyang flowers. The stems of this grass are emerald green with small thorns. wrong."

This is where they are looking.

A few people followed the traces and continued to track, and after a while, they saw the checkpoint at the mountain pass. From a long distance, the dark blue uniforms of the officers were very eye-catching.

"Sure enough, they are from the government!"

Shi Yi slammed his fist on the mound next to him, causing waves of sand and dust to be thrown up, the Shizi frowned slightly, and turned sideways to avoid it.

Su Rao shook her head upon hearing this, "Probably not."

"Since the people behind the scenes control the villagers through the hands of the bandits, they will no longer intervene in the power of the government, otherwise it will complicate the originally simple things and increase unnecessary risks."

It seems to be the case.

Shi Yi nodded, staring at those people in the distance, wondering: "Then why do they pretend to be people from the government?"

"Probably for convenience."

While leaning down to observe the surrounding guard posts, Su Rao replied: "I guess they used their identities as official servants to deceive the people at that time, so that this matter can proceed smoothly until now."

"If the villagers knew about the crime of exploiting private mines and conspiring against each other, they wouldn't dare to do it even with a knife on their necks."

Shi Yi was still muttering something in a low voice, but Su Rao was in no mood to pay attention to it anymore, and turned to Yan Yun and said, "There is a platform in front of the checkpoint, and there is a sentry post in the dark. Wait until dark."

"Then wait."

A few people hid in the hills not far away, avoiding the patrolling men and horses, the sun above their heads moved from the center to the west, the sunset glow faded away, and the night fell.

There are torches at the checkpoint, which are brightly illuminated.

The guards gathered in twos and threes in front of the fire, drinking and eating meat, fisting and talking and laughing. When the nearest patrol passed by, it was time for them to leave.

before this.

Yan Yun and Su Rao looked at Shi Yi at the same time. Shi Yi was holding a root grass and playing with it in his hand. When he realized that someone was looking at him, he bumped into the eyes of the two of them as soon as he raised his head, causing a cold war.

"What are you looking at me like that for?"

"Brother Shi, we are going into the mountains."

Su Rao said.

Hearing this, Shi Yi threw away the weeds in his hand, stepped forward quickly, and said happily: "Then hurry up, I can't wait."

"There are countless guards and guards here. If you want to avoid them, you can't do it with you."

After Su Rao finished speaking, the joy on Shi Yi's face gradually faded. He knew that his hard work was not bad, but he was not good at light work. This kind of situation would only hinder him.

"Then what should I do? I can't make it all the way here, can I go back the same way?"

Keeping it easy to be discovered by mountain patrollers, if he left, he would definitely not be reconciled.

Su Rao lowered her eyebrows in thought, and Yan Yun just said, "Go to the intersection on the south side of the mountain and wait."

"Wait for what?"

Shi Yi asked subconsciously, but did not get an answer. After hesitating again and again, he followed the order and took the horse away.

Watching his figure disappear at the end of the darkness, Su Rao withdrew her gaze, turned to the figures at the campfire without asking about his arrangement.

"Can you?"

Yan Yun asked lightly.

Su Rao raised her eyebrows and smiled, "You'll know if you try it."

She said try, but her tone was firm and confident. In the night, the long and narrow phoenix eyes were full of waves, as if to gather the moonlight in, so dazzling that people couldn't take their eyes off.

Yan Yun's eyes were covered with a smile that he didn't even notice, and he said calmly: "Then, we will wait and see."

Moonlit Yeling, low grass and wind.

As soon as he finished speaking, Su Rao's breath began to subside, her breath gradually merged into the wind, her body retreated like a ghost, and became one with the night.

Blink away.

Her figure is elegant and nimble, like flying flowers and fallen leaves, every time she touches the ground, even the surrounding tender grass has not been disturbed, leaving no trace of wind, only the afterimages left by her swift movement, which are several feet away.

She slid past, and the people guarding the checkpoint didn't notice anything. They should still drink and drink, eat meat, and chat in full swing.

Looking for the nearest rock to hide her figure, Su Rao was ready to wait for him.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he looked around, he saw a figure walking out of the mountain depression where he hid earlier, with almost no movements, his figure flickered!

One, two, three!
He didn't take advantage of the situation, he didn't fly over the wall, he was so fast that he almost teleported, and the last time he landed, he stood three inches behind those people, raising his hand and thinking could kill people invisible, but he didn't move, and he couldn't move. people notice.

When she reappears, it will be in front of Su Rao.

Under the moonlight and stars, his black hair is like a brocade, pouring down to his waist, a pair of clear autumn water eyes are indifferent and peaceful, and the halo is flowing, like the ice and snow on the top of a snow mountain that has not melted for thousands of years. dust.

She was dressed in a crow-blue brocade robe with dark lotus patterns, with billowing sleeves, making her face look like a painting, as if she had descended from the clouds to the mortal world, with a kind of fairy air that could not eat the fireworks of the world!

At this moment, Su Rao suddenly thought of a line of poetry, "Autumn water is a god and jade is a bone, and if it is more shameful than a lotus flower."

She couldn't help blurting out, "Young master is so beautiful in the world, a flower of Gaoling, I don't know who will take advantage of him in the future."

"kindness?"

This tone, why does it sound so strange, seeing her eyes full of surprise, staring straight at him, Yan Yun should feel disgusted and uncomfortable, but those eyes are too clean, so clean that he can't give birth to the slightest thought of resistance Come.

He even twitched the corner of his lower lip rarely, and teased: "Don't worry, I will definitely take care of myself and not let others take advantage of it."

Hearing his chuckle, Su Rao finally realized what she said, and hurriedly said: "Beauty misleads people, I was quick to talk, I hope you will forgive me."

"I don't know Miss Su always looks at me like this. She's beautiful in the world, the flower of Gaoling, huh?"

"That's a good word."

Su Rao is used to his indifferent and alienated appearance, seeing him joking at this moment, she was still a little uncomfortable, so she hurriedly changed the subject, "Young Master's footwork looks quite familiar just now..."

"is it?"

Yan Yun turned and walked away, Su Rao hurriedly followed, the two avoided the guards and secret whistle and headed towards the mountain, no matter how she slapped Yan Yun on the sidelines, she kept silent about the origin of this footwork.

But Su Rao was not wrong.

This shrinking to an inch is the most profound level of lightness exercises taught to her by the master. It must be supported by deep internal strength. There are other apprentices!
