Chapter 208 Over the City Wall
The guy was sitting in the lobby, resting his chin, was about to fall asleep, and kept looking outside.

The inn was closed long ago, the tables and chairs were all upside down on the table, the door was closed, only one door was open.

The shopkeeper only left a small cup of oil money, and the clerk's eyes were a little dizzy.

After a long time, the man felt that he couldn't hold on any longer, and got up to close the door, when he heard footsteps coming down the stairs from behind, the man rubbed his eyes and turned his head.

On the wooden stairs, the little boy said "Huh?" and said, "Why haven't you slept yet?"

The guy was taken aback, blinked his eyes: "How did you come down from upstairs?"

"I see there is still light here, so I want to come down and ask for a candle," the boy replied, and glanced at the open door of the inn, "Brother, who are you leaving this door for?"

The guy still felt strange and puzzled, scratched his head, and shook his head: "It's nothing, um, you're here to ask for candles, aren't you? Wait."

"En." Xia Zhaoyi nodded.

The clerk took a candle, Xia Zhaoyi paused after taking it, then raised his head and said, "By the way, brother, let me ask you a question, do you know how many old bookstalls there are on South Street?"

"Second-hand bookstalls? There are quite a lot of them. There seems to be a school over there."

"Are there any more famous ones?"

The guy laughed: "How can I know that, I don't like reading..."

"Well, that's good, then go to bed early," Xia Zhaoyi said, shaking the candle in his hand, "Thank you."

Watching the boy go back upstairs, the clerk looked at the door that was only open again: "It's really weird... When did she come back?"

After returning to the room, Xia Zhaoyi lit a candle, sat by the table, and looked at the drawings on the table.

She couldn't buy a map, so she drew one herself. She wasn't very good at drawing. She wasn't good at drawing flowers, birds, insects, fish, landscapes, pines and bamboos, but she could draw maps, make blueprints or diagrams of structures.

However, the left hand of this body really doesn't have much strength. If she wants to be as flexible as her right hand, she will have to practice for at least a year.

The place where Quan Jiuwei's home is located has become a very small point on the drawing.

Xia Zhaoyi followed the path all the way, and soon arrived at the Yu Mansion.

She tapped her fingers lightly on the drawing, thoughtfully.

Quan Jiuwei's hostility towards her was so severe that she felt that what he was afraid of was not only her sudden appearance, but more like, he was afraid of being discovered by her.

What is Quan Jiuwei hiding?
Why are you so nervous?

And what has to do with him is the matter of the Pan family.

Does he... hate the Pan family?
She didn't ask much at that time, a person who can no longer calm down and talk will only waste time.

After all, as soon as Quan Jiuwei came up, he wanted to kill her directly with a dagger. How could a normal person be so violent?
Xia Zhaoyi got up, and slowly walked back and forth in front of the table in the room with his chin in his hand.

After thinking about it for a long time, the watchman's voice came from outside, Xia Zhaoyi stopped, and turned his eyes to look out the window.

Three more.

The affairs of Yu Fu and Quan Jiuwei need to be put aside for the time being, she has more important things to do right now.

Xia Zhaoyi sighed softly, during the time she was back in Beijing, she really wished she could conjure up several selves, she really had no skills at all.

After tidying up the things on the table, she blew out the candles, opened the window, and went out.

The moon was still shining, the city was silent, and lights walking in the distance could be seen from high places, and the patrolling cavalry guards did not know how many shifts they had changed.

Xia Zhaoyi was dressed lightly, and walked towards the nearest city gate after landing.

The city wall is extremely long, and the gates are connected to each other. Each gate has six guards at the top and bottom, and the guards are heavily guarded.

But to guard all the city lines of the huge capital, for the current Dagan, the military strength is completely insufficient, not to mention, now is the time when it is most likely to get sleepy.

Xia Zhaoyi found the darkest corner and climbed up, climbed over the city wall and walked towards Xiangjuan Mountain.

As the sky was getting brighter, she would occasionally yawn a few times, then take out the small bottle in her sleeve and sniff it under her nose to keep herself awake before continuing on her way.

Finally arrived at Xiangjuan Mountain at dawn, she was not in a hurry to go to the south, but went up the mountain road with support, and in the end she was too tired, she lay down on the back door of the Daoist Temple, and fell asleep.

Several Taoist priests passed by with brooms and dustpans, and a Taoist priest with sharp eyes said, "Ah!": "There is a little boy!"

Seeing this, the others all ran over.

"What's up with her?"

"How did it appear here?"

"Where are you hurt?"

The Taoist who supported the little boy checked it, raised his head and said, "It seems... just fell asleep, and the body is still warm, not cold."

"Fell asleep?"

"Sleep here?"

Everyone looked at Xiaotong. She was breathing smoothly, without snoring, but exhaled and inhaled very rhythmically, as if... she was really asleep.

Xia Zhaoyi slept for a long time, and it was too late to wake up.

She sat up on the plank bed, covered with a Taoist robe, looked around, and smiled.

Opening the wooden door and coming out, there were two little Taoist priests chatting in the sun.

One of them, Xia Zhaoyi, recognized him, walked over and said with a smile, "Zang Yi."

The little Taoist priests looked up, and the one whose name was called out by Xia Zhaoyi said, "You're awake, wait, how do you know my name is Zang Yi?"

"I entrusted you to take care of my horse."

"Ah!" Zang Yi stood up, "Are you that girl from that day?"

"Yeah," Xia Zhaoyi nodded, and handed over ten taels of silver, "Thank you for donating to the Taoist temple."

Zang Yi hurriedly took it, and the little Taoist priest stood up and thanked Xia Zhaoyi.

Xiaotong generously gave so much money, and the two wanted to ask a lot, but Xiaotong raised his arms and cupped his hands, and said with a smile: "Qingyun has to trouble you to take care of it for a few more days, and I have to say goodbye again."

"Wait, you didn't come to pick up Qingyun?" Zang Yi hurriedly said.

"Well, I'm coming over to take a nap, goodbye." Xia Zhaoyi said.

Watching the little boy turn and walk away, Zang Yi and the little Taoist priest Zang Feng beside him looked at each other, a little silly.

"Come to sleep?"

"But she seems to be sleeping directly on the floor."

"Where did she come from? She looks quite clean."

"I don't understand."

"Me too."

Tiancheng Camp was in the southeast of Xiangjuan Mountain, and Xia Zhaoyi Road ate a few wild fruits. On the way there, they could gradually hear many uniform shouts.

Passing through the middle of the Xiangjuan Mountain Ranch, she stopped at the gate, went to the guard who was about to stop her, and said, "Please go and inform Deputy General Tao Yinhetao that a boy named Ali is looking for you." he."

The guard took a look at her and felt that the little boy was a little strange. After meeting the eyes of others, he couldn't help but let out a low laugh.

After laughing, she was taken aback for a moment, then looked back at her: "Who? A Li?"

"You know me," Xia Zhaoyi smiled, "Well, it's me."

"Okay," said the guard, Su Rong, "wait a moment."
