The prisoner car walked very slowly, the original day's journey was also extended to a day and a half, they had to spend a night in the field, it was the beginning of November, Shuzhong also entered winter, the weather was relatively cold at night, the soldiers lit a bonfire, around the bonfire to cook, Yang Zilin in the prisoner car was wearing thin prison clothes, shivering from the cold, begging: "It's too cold, let me get closer to the fire!" ”

A soldier pointed at him and scolded: "You turtle son, you will die sooner or later, what kind of fire are you cooking?" ”

Yang Zilin was furious and scolded: "You dog thieves, do you think I am really rebelling? Go back, I'll let Cui Shuai behead your dogs......."

He suddenly realized that he had slipped his mouth, and immediately shut up and glared fiercely at the soldier.

The soldiers all laughed and said, "When you die, you still have a hard mouth!" ”

Someone threw a torn sheepskin at him, and he quickly wrapped himself around his body and said no more.

In the distance, two of Guo Song's entourage, Yang Jun and Zhao Xiu, also lit a bonfire, and the Xue family, Guo Song and others also gathered around the fire to roast the fire, Xue Xun glanced at the prisoner cart and said a little worriedly: "It's a bit unsafe to place the prisoner cart like this at night." ”

Guo Song nodded and said, "I'll go and talk to the soldiers later, so that they can watch the prisoner car at night and be on duty in two shifts." ”

They ate dry food, and one of them drank a bowl of milk tea made by Guo Song, Xue Xun praised: "This milk tea burns well, the milk is mellow, there is no smell, this craft is enough to open a store in Chang'an!" ”

Han gently kicked her husband, "What nonsense, I'll never open a store again!" ”

Xue Xun also knew that he was speechless, so he smiled and stopped talking, Xue Tao asked Guo Song in a low voice: "Can I go to Qingcheng Mountain in winter?" ”

Guo Song smiled slightly: "In winter, you can go to Qingcheng Mountain to see the snow scene, I heard that Qingcheng Snow Ridge is a famous scene in Chengdu." ”

Xue Tao nodded, the fire shone on her pretty face, and her eyes were full of joy and expectation......

Late at night, Xue Xun and his wife went back to the carriage to rest, Xue Tao also returned to the ox cart, Kang Bao whispered to Guo Song: "I'll go to guard the prisoner cart!" ”

Guo Song nodded, those soldiers did make people a little uneasy, and they promised well one by one, but it was this kind of chest slapping guarantee that made him feel unreliable.

Guo Song sat next to Xue Tao's ox cart at night, Xue Tao gently opened a window crack above his head, and whispered to Ailang: "I'll let my mother come over and squeeze it, you go to sleep in my father's car!" ”

Guo Song said with a smile: "When I was a child, my master taught me a breathing method, I didn't know what the effect would be, after practicing for more than ten years, I knew that it not only strengthens the body, but also does not invade the cold and heat, this cold is nothing to me at all, you don't have to worry!" ”

"Here's what you're going to get!"

Xue Tao took out a roll of sheepskin and handed it to Guo Song, Guo Song shook his head, "I really don't need it, you cover yourself to keep warm." ”

"No! You have to hold it. ”

Xue Tao had a resolute attitude, and Guo Song had no choice but to take it, he put the sheepskin on his body, but it was warm in his heart.

"Sleep! I'm watching from the outside, and it's going to be fine. ”

Guo Song smiled and shook her jade hand, Xue Tao smiled, "Then I'll sleep first, Guo Lang be careful." ”

She gently closed the window and glared at the two little ladies next to her who covered their mouths and snickered, but she didn't bother to say anything about them, she lay down gently, letting the sweet happiness flow in her heart.

........

At the fourth watch, a terrible scream suddenly woke Guo Song from his sleep, he stood up, drew his sword in his hand, and looked around, the scream came from the direction of the prisoner car, which made him feel a little bad in his heart.

"Guo Lang, what's wrong?" Xue Tao was also awakened by the screams.

"I don't know, it seems that something happened to the prisoner van."

Guo Song shouted again: "Little Fish Lady! ”

"Here!" The little fish girl hurriedly appeared at the window.

"You are optimistic about Miss Xue, I'll go and see the situation."

"I see!"

Guo Song nodded to Xue Tao, and in Xue Tao's eyes full of worry, he ran towards the prisoner car.

The prisoner cart was already surrounded by soldiers, who were looking around vigilantly with their backs to the cart and horizontal knives in their hands.

In the cage, Yang Zilin was terrified, lying at the bottom, not daring to move.

The scream was Yang Zilin's son, who was hit by an arrow and fell in the prison car, unknown whether he was alive or dead.

At this time, Kang Bao stepped forward and whispered: "It's a poisoned arrow, it's dead." ”

"From which direction did the arrow come from?"

"It should be from within the woods."

Thirty steps away was a forest, pitch black, without any movement, Guo Song glanced back at the cage, which had been densely covered by soldiers, and he looked up sharply.

If the other party is still there and wants to shoot Yang Zilin, then he can only climb the tree and shoot down from a height.

Suddenly, a cold light flashed in mid-air, Guo Song could see it clearly, jumped up, swung his sword and slashed away, 'Click! There was a cracking sound in mid-air, and a poisoned arrow was split in two.

Guo Song rushed towards the archery, only to see a black shadow on the big tree flying down like a bird, "What a light skill!" Guo Song secretly admired.

Guo Song quickly tracked, the black shadow fled in panic, Guo Song chased closer and closer, chasing more than a hundred steps, Guo Song did a somersault, waved a sword in the air, the face towel of the man in black was picked off, Guo Song gently fell in front of the man in black a zhang away, the black sword pointed at the other party, the man in black froze, the master said that his light skills are also among the best in the world, but he didn't expect that the first time he shot, he met a person whose martial arts were much more clever than himself.

Guo Song couldn't help but be stunned, the other party turned out to be a girl with a beautiful face.

"Who are you, and why did you shoot the prisoner?"

The girl's eyes were full of resentment and sadness, and she gritted her teeth and said, "I only hate myself for making a mistake in judgment and killing the wrong person, and it is difficult to find out the revenge of killing my father." ”

"Yang Zilin is your enemy?"

"My father is Lu Governor Shi Xie Changwu, who was poisoned by Yang Zilin's dog thieves six years ago because he discovered Yang Zilin's attempt to rebel."

Guo Song saw that her eyes were full of hatred and despair, and his tone softened, "Yang Zilin's son deserves to die, he has been shot by you, he poisoned your father, you shot his son, it can be regarded as avenging his father, as for Yang Zilin, he will definitely not live if he falls into the hands of Cui Ning, you don't have to pay the price for a dying person anymore." ”

Guo Song put away his sword and got out of the way.

The girl glanced at Guo Song deeply, ran away, and in a moment, disappeared into the darkness.

.........

Guo Song returned to the prisoner car, Xue Xun also came out, he saw Guo Song coming back, and hurriedly asked, "Did the murderer catch up?" ”

Guo Song shook his head, "He ran away!" ”

"Forget it, let's be vigilant, use wooden planks to fence the prisoner cart on all sides, and leave a few holes to breathe."

The prisoner cart board itself is there, and it is placed at the bottom of the prisoner cart, and everyone is troublesome and does not install it, and now even Yang Zilin is not too depressed, and he can't wait to load it up by himself, and everyone works together to load the thick wooden board on the prisoner cart.

Taking a moment, Guo Song asked Xue Xun in a low voice, "Has Uncle Shi heard of Governor Shi Xie Changwu?" ”

Xue Xun smiled: "Why do you call it heard?" I was drinking with him three months ago, and he was dissatisfied with Yang Zilin's arbitrariness and resigned to return to Chang'an. ”

Guo Song was stunned for a moment, secretly complaining in his heart, he was fooled, an old-fashioned story actually deceived himself, he secretly hated in his heart, it must be that young woman who heard that her accent was not a local, so she casually made up an old-fashioned story, and she actually believed it.

Thinking of the young woman, Guo Song sighed secretly, I'm afraid this is the main reason, if it was a young man, he would let him go easily?

Guo Song suddenly became listless, he returned to Xue Tao's ox cart, and Xue Tao asked, "Guo Lang, have you caught the assassin?" ”

Guo Song smiled bitterly, he didn't hide it, so he told Xue Tao about being deceived, Xue Tao covered his mouth and snickered, and she couldn't help laughing for a while: "In fact, the real reason is that this woman didn't hurt the innocent, so Guo Lang will let her go, Guo Lang has never been a person who throws away his principles at will, how could he let her go because of a few good words from her?" ”

These words made Guo Song's heart warm, this is his confidant! You can see the truth at a glance in the complicated fog.......

Xue Xun and his entourage did not dare to continue to sleep, they set off for Chengdu Mansion overnight, vigilant along the way, but there were no more accidents, at noon, the group arrived in Chengdu County.

After entering the county seat, everyone went their separate ways, Xue Xun escorted the prisoner to the Jiedu embassy, and Xue Tao and his mother followed Guo Song to his temporary residence in Chengdu.

There are many rooms in the mansion, there are more than 20 guest rooms in the front yard alone, which is enough to accommodate everyone to live, Xue Tao and his mother live in the east courtyard of the back house, and Guo Song lives in the inner study of the west courtyard.

Everyone had slept only half the night last night, and when they settled down, they were so exhausted that they fell asleep.

Guo Song and Xue Tao had already made an appointment, and after Han fell asleep, Xue Tao slipped out, and the two went shopping together.
