Chapter 1440 I miss you so much
After resting overnight, Shen Lie took his soldiers and horses to leave the mountains until noon the next day.

In the past few days, they have been continuously attacking the land of Songzhou. Although no one died due to the battle, at least half of the injured and sick were injured.

Therefore, for the rest of the day, Shen Lie had no plans to fight any more, and the time to rush seemed to be ample.

There is no avenue on the road, but it is inevitable to meet villagers.They all wore ghost masks on their faces, and they rode horses generously, never retreating or avoiding, only the frightened villagers ran away and told each other.

When the people from the government came, they had already left.

The people from the government went to report to the barracks, but the barracks didn't dare to chase after them. After confirming repeatedly that the "ghost-faced soldiers and horses" had gone far, the barracks men dared to come over with a hook and a nail pusher to study their horseshoes.

As Vietnam descended, the sky became cloudier. After a heavy thunder rumbled, the sky turned as dark as night in an instant.

There are a few decent villages nearby, Shen Lie avoids it, and goes to the cemetery. At the foot of the cemetery, there is a temple in the distance.

As the heavy rain fell, they rode their horses to speed up, and later found that there was a carriage parked at the gate of the temple, and it was a double-driver.

As soon as Li Gan fell, the rituals of the world collapsed, and all kinds of rules were originally set, and the "standards" corresponding to dividing people into three, five, and nine classes also collapsed.

The two-horse carriage, which was originally reserved for the rich and powerful, is now available to anyone as long as they can afford the horse and the carriage.

When Shen Lie and the others were about to arrive, Wu Shaoning, who heard the sound of many horseshoes in the temple, came out to look around. He saw so many figures and dark faces at a glance.

The heavy rain was like a curtain, and the fog was hazy. Ye Zheng squinted his eyes, and saw a head sticking out, and quickly shrank back.

"Master, did I see something just now?"

The opponent's speed was too fast, and Shen Lie didn't see clearly.

Di Jinsheng said: "Catch them first, if they are civilians, then release them after we leave."

Wu Shaoning hurried to the backyard: "Miss Ali! Miss Ali!"

Under the eaves of the backyard, Xia Zhaoyi was talking to the old sweeper who was guarding the temple alone. Hearing the sound, the two turned their heads to look.

"Miss Ali, a team of soldiers is coming!" Wu Shaoning said, "It looks like there are thousands of people!"

Xia Zhaoyi was a little surprised: "Thousands?"

"...There should be," Wu Shaoning's voice became weak, "I'm also... not sure, they are at the big bend at the foot of the mountain, watching many people."

Xia Zhaoyi's eyebrows were slightly closed, and suddenly, she bent her lips and smiled: "There should not be thousands, only a few hundred, maybe not even a few hundred."

The old man was curious: "The girl hasn't gone out, why do you have such a guess?"

Xia Zhaoyi smiled and said, "I know who is here."

She looked at Wu Shaoning: "Let's go."

Wu Shaoning followed behind her, puzzled and said: "Miss Ali, are you trying to say that... is my young master?"

Xia Zhaoyi said slowly, "There are residents not far away, Songzhou soldiers and horses will not leave a good house and come to this barren mountain to shelter from the rain."

"But their faces are ugly, all like black coals..."

While speaking, there was already a lot of movement outside, but Xia Zhaoyi and Wu Shaoning hadn't come near the main hall yet.

Wu Shaoning said, "I'll go and have a look!"

He ran quickly to the main hall, glanced at him, and was startled. Before he could turn around and run away, Ye Zheng was overjoyed: "Wu Shaoning?!"

Wu Shaoning, who turned half sideways, was taken aback for a moment, then turned his head to look back.

Ye Zheng took off the mask on his face: "Me!"

Wu Shaoning's eyes brightened instantly: "Ye Zheng!!"

He looked at Shen Lie, who was wiping the water drops for Longying, and looked at him because he heard his voice: "Master?!"

His deep black eyes looked at the carriage outside again, a surge of joy arose in his heart, and the blood seemed to become hot in an instant, rushing to the limbs and bones that were icy from the heavy rain.

Zhuang Qi ran quickly from the other end with his trouser belt in hand, looked at the girl on the opposite verandah, and said, "Miss Ali."

He wanted to ask what happened outside, but when he saw Wu Shaoning standing there, the expression on Wu Shaoning's face didn't look like something serious had happened.

When Xia Zhaoyi heard the word "Young Master" in Wu Shaoning's mouth, the smile on her face became brighter unconsciously. She looked at Zhuang Qi and said, "En."

He responded very lightly, like a feather brushed against Shen Lie's ear.

He immediately strode over, stepped down the threshold of the apse with his long legs, and his clear and bright black eyes focused on the thin and slender girl.

Zhuang Qi exclaimed "ah".

Xia Zhaoyi also raised his eyebrows because of the ghost mask on his face.

Shen Lie raised his hand to uncover it, but Xia Zhaoyi suddenly said, "Don't!"

Shen Lie stopped his movements, Xia Zhaoyi's bright eyes glanced at the main hall in front of him at this moment, Shen Lie realized it for a moment, his lips under the mask smiled, and walked towards her.

Ye Zheng and the others came over curiously and looked behind, Wu Shaoning hurried over and drove them away.

The rain outside the porch was getting heavier, the flowers and trees were swaying, and the broken branches were flying. Shen Lie stopped in front of the girl and looked down at her intently: "Ali."

Xia Zhaoyi's eyes were clear and bright, and she looked back at him with a smile. She raised her hand and gently lifted the mask from his sharp jawline.

Shen Lie was much taller than her, so in order to match her movements, he deliberately lowered his head sideways.

Delicate and smooth white skin, like snow and satin, was slowly revealed from under the black mask, followed by his tall nose bridge like a knife and a pair of deep black eyes.

His eyes have been silently fixed on her face, deep and hot, with strong emotions surging in the bottom of his eyes.

While looking at him, Xia Zhaoyi stood on tiptoe, raised his other hand, and took off the mask from his head intact.

She looked down at the mask and said with a smile, "Where did this mask come from? It seems to be used by a great dancer."

As soon as the words fell, her slender body was suddenly embraced by someone and fell into a wide but slightly wet embrace.

It didn't take long for the damp chill to be dissipated by the heat of his body, and Shen Lie's hands were tightly wrapped around her, as if to completely press her into his body.

This was the first time Xia Zhaoyi felt a strong possessive desire from him, but he felt that he was trying to restrain himself.

Shen Lie lowered his head, leaning against the girl's black hair that was also wet by the heavy rain outside the eaves. He closed his eyes and said in a low voice, "Ali, I miss you very much."

Xia Zhaoyi's face was very red, she leaned into his arms, nodded, and said calmly, "Okay..."

The sound of a steady and powerful heartbeat came from Shen Lie's chest, Xia Zhaoyi heard it clearly, and suddenly felt that this was the most beautiful sound in the world.

She raised her head, her eyebrows were shining and moving, she met Shen Lie's eyes again without blinking, and said seriously: "Shen Lie, I miss you too."

Shen Lie's gaze became gentle, he smiled slightly, lowered his head, a little nervous, but he didn't stop, a very light kiss landed on Xia Zhaoyi's forehead.He acted solemnly, as if he was accomplishing something extremely important in his life.
