In this night's battle, four more generals of the Meng family were killed, seven others were wounded, and only four or five were intact. However, fifteen men in black were killed in this battle, and less than ten escaped.

However, after this battle, it can basically be concluded that the group of black-clothed people who attacked him have been defeated and will no longer pose a threat to him. Therefore, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, buried their companions, and after packing up other things, they went up and set off again.

Because the mood is relaxed, and it is close to Qingyang City, the road is much easier to walk, there are many sections and formal roads, so the speed of everyone walking is much faster than the previous two days, and the result is that until the evening, the group finally arrived at Qingyang City.

Xu Qing, the guard of Qingyang City, was also startled when he heard that Meng Ling came to Qingyang, although he didn't know why Miss Meng came to his own Qingyang City, but he still hurried out of the city, welcomed Meng Ling and his party into the city, and arranged a good place for them to live, and prepared a sumptuous wine and food to entertain them.

Meng Qi and Xu Qing had known each other a few times, and at the banquet, they roughly told Xu Qing about this time when they went out hunting, encountered the attack, and the role that the plateau played in it.

After Xu Qing heard this, he couldn't help but be surprised, although he was stationed in Qingyang, he knew a little bit about the affairs of Xianyang, and knew that Meng Ling was very likely to marry the Grand Duke and Fusu, and during the hunting in the north, he was attacked by others, which was of course an extremely strict matter, and it was likely to involve the power struggle of the upper echelons of the Qin State.

However, Xu Qing was picked up by Meng Wu, and Meng Wu also had a life-saving grace for him, so he has always been grateful to Meng Wu, since Meng Ling and his party came to Qingyang City, he naturally wanted to protect them and send them to Xianyang safely. Xu Qing also promised Meng Ling and Meng Qi during the banquet that he would send troops tomorrow to escort them back to Xianyang. At the same time, Xu Qing also expressed his gratitude to Gao Yuan repeatedly.

Qingyang is just a border city of Qin, the scale is not large, and the conditions are limited, but for people who have lived in the wild for several days, especially those who have been worried and highly nervous, they can live in a large room, sleep in a clean bed, and completely relax, it is already a very comfortable environment. Since he is a person who has survived in the wild for more than ten days on the plateau, he is not at all dissatisfied.

After taking a hot bath and changing into clean clothes, Takahara lay down on the bed, thinking about his next step. After this incident, he followed Meng Ling and his party into Xianyang, of course, there was no problem. And with the relationship between Meng Wu, he can also have a lot of room for action in Xianyang, which is of course beneficial to himself.

However, from another point of view, he is undoubtedly involved in the political struggle of the Qin State, so he may also become the target of public criticism, the main messenger behind the attack on Meng Ling will definitely investigate his identity in detail, and now he is fraudulently using Xia Wuhe's name, which is likely to become his biggest weakness, so after he arrives in Xianyang, he should immediately contact the hidden personnel of Daijun, so that they can quickly find out Xia Wuhe's identity, and then try to remedy it.

When he was thinking about it, he only heard the door ring a few times, and Meng Qi's voice said, "Mr. Xia? Did you fall asleep? ”

Gao Yuan got up and opened the door, and said, "Mr. Meng, is there something wrong?" ”

Meng Qi said: "It was the young lady who sent me to invite the gentleman, if the gentleman is not tired, I hope to talk to the gentleman once." ”

Gao Yuan smiled: "Okay, I'll go." ”

came to Meng Ling's room, at this time Meng Ling had changed into a woman's clothes, her hair had been put down, and she pulled a women's bun, although it was a little less heroic, but it also added some feminine temperament.

Meng Ling first asked Gao Yuan to sit down, and then said, "This time we were able to arrive safely in Qingyang, all thanks to Mr. Xia's help. ”

Meng Qi also said: "Yes, if we hadn't met Mr. Xia in the jungle, I'm afraid we would all be immune this time, so we really want to thank Mr. Xia." ”

Gao Yuan smiled: "Miss Meng, Mr. Meng, there is no need to say these words anymore, since everyone met in the jungle, they naturally have to be in the same boat, so there is no need to take it to heart." ”

Meng Ling said: "Mr. Xia is not only wise and brave, but also open-minded, we all admire it very much, but this time we are indeed saved by Mr. Meng, and our Meng family must also repay Mr." So please don't refuse, sir. ”

Meng Qi also said: "Yes, we didn't expect that Mr. Xia couldn't help but be a skilled doctor, and his swordsmanship was also superb and witty, if it weren't for this incident, I'm afraid we wouldn't know that Mr. was a real master." ”

Gao Yuan knew in his heart that the two of them were testing their identities and origins, which was of course not surprising, because the martial arts ability he had shown in the past few days had far surpassed that of an ordinary doctor, Meng Ling and Meng Qi were suspicious, and it was reasonable, and now that they were safe, they naturally had to inquire, and they had saved them, so it was not good to ask in person, so they could only knock on the side like this.

However, Gao Yuan has already thought of the rhetoric, and said: "It is not a deliberate concealment in the next, it is not a concealment of the two, in the lower childhood, I once met a stranger in my childhood, worshipped him as a teacher, and studied for ten years, because I was intellectually dull and dull, and only learned a little bit of medicine, swordsmanship, and the art of war, so although I was a teacher, I still need to practice again, so I made a living by wandering and practicing medicine." But now that she has arrived in Qingyang, Miss Meng is safe and sound, and she doesn't want to reciprocate, she just wants to say goodbye to Miss and leave tomorrow. ”

After the two of them listened, they didn't doubt it, because there were indeed many hermits in this era, and Gao Yuan's experience was reasonable. But hearing Gao Yuan say that he was leaving, Meng Ling was not only taken aback, but said: "Why is Mr. leaving, I think that with Mr.'s talent and martial arts, no matter where he goes, he can get important, and he has a life-saving grace for us, so please Mr. must return to Xianyang with us, I will definitely let my father recommend Mr. to be an official in front of the king, and with Mr.'s talent, he will be able to make some achievements in the Qin State." ”

Gao Yuan shook his head and said: "Miss's kindness is in my heart, but when I left the school, the master warned me that I want to travel the world for ten years before I can be regarded as a successful academic, and now there are still two years to go, so I can't be an official now, and when we met in the jungle, I said that I can only follow Miss and his party for three days, and now three days have passed, and I will naturally leave in Xia, and please forgive Miss." ”

Meng Qi was a little strange and said, "I don't know why the Venerable Master is a master on that side, why he has set such strange rules for Mr. ”

Gao Yuan deliberately made a solemn face, and said: "Shizun is indeed a master of the world, not only proficient in the art of the hundred schools of thought, but also good at knowing yin and yang, knowing the eight hangs, numerology, star like, knowing the world's evil and auspicious blessings, and a hundred spirits, he said that I have studied art in the mountains for ten years, and I may have achieved something, but I don't know the world's insights, and human feelings, just like Zhao Tian in the past, can only talk on paper, not enough for the important task, so if you take the liberty of becoming an official, there will be a catastrophe, only by traveling the world for ten years, can you understand the world, to be worry-free.

These words were both unfathomable and reasonable, so even Meng Qi couldn't help but be a little in awe, and said: "Venerable Master is really a master, and his knowledge is indeed extraordinary. ”

Meng Ling listened, and also pondered for a while, before saying: "Since Mr.'s master said so, we naturally don't dare to force Mr. to make it difficult, but only invite Mr. to Xianyang Meng's house, stay for a few days, and let my father know about Mr. ”

In fact, Gao Yuan made up this set of nonsense, that is, to retreat as advance, so that after he arrived in Xianyang, he could act at the opportunity and advance and retreat freely, so he was very happy to hear the two of them say this, but he deliberately made a hesitant look on his face.

When Meng Qi saw it, he immediately said: "Yes, Mr. only lives in Xianyang for a few days, and meets the general, as well as Miss's two brothers, and then you can leave at any time, even if Mr. is going to travel part of the world, but stay in one place for a few days and take a break, it's always okay, otherwise if Mr. leaves like this, the general will definitely blame Miss and Zaixia after he knows." ”

Gao Yuan listened, and said with a look of relief: "Okay, since the two of you said so, I will follow the two of you to Xianyang for a few days, and then set off on the road, and the two of you can't stop you at that time." ”

Meng Ling listened, then put his mind at ease, and said: "Please rest assured, Mr. is at stake, how dare we stop Mr., as long as Mr. goes to Xianyang for a few days, let my father show his gratitude to Mr. a little." ”

So the next day everyone rested in Qingyang for a day, and early in the morning of the third day, they set off on the road, but Meng Ling left the seriously injured family in Qingyang to recuperate, and also asked Xu Qing to send people to take out the bodies of those who died in the jungle, bury them in coffins, and transport them back to Xianyang for burial.

Although there are 2,000 soldiers to protect, but along the way Meng Qi still did not dare to be careless, cautious, to nothing happened, so he walked for more than ten days, at noon on this day, turned a corner, and then looked from a distance on the avenue, there was a faint image of a city outline in front of him, only to hear Meng Qi said: "Mr. Xia, the front is Xianyang City." ”

Gao Yuan nodded, and finally arrived in Xianyang.
