The sound of footsteps sounded on the wooden stairs not far outside the house, which attracted Ye Er to look out the door. He frowned and then looked at Chi Linjing, as if he wanted an answer stubbornly.

"I have my own sense of proportion." Chi Linjing lowered his eyes again, his voice still flat and light.

Ye Er left immediately after hearing the sound.

Yin Luo opened the door at this moment. She was carrying a teapot filled with hot water in one hand and a tray with snacks in the other. She entered the room and put it on the table in a hurry. After cleaning the teacup, she poured herself a cup. Only then did he greet Chi Linjing, who was sitting by the bed.

"Do you want some tea?"

Chi Linjing smiled and shook his head.

Yin Luo frowned when she saw his expression, and her intuition told her that the person in front of her was worried, so she stopped drinking tea, put down the cup, stood up and sat next to him, and said directly: "There is something wrong with you."

Chi Linjing was slightly stunned, turned his head to look at her, and decided to play dumb: "What?"

"What happened?" Yin Luo raised his eyebrows, "Who did you see while I was out?"

Chi Linjing smiled, "Why do you say that?"

"There is a slight smell of red mud in the house. You and I have not passed through the wetland on this trip, so it is reasonable to say that it will not be contaminated. When I first smelled it, I thought it was an illusion, but when I saw your expression, I was sure. Someone came from Nanxia in a hurry. , you just met him and learned some things that make you quite worried. But you are not being honest. "

Chi Linjing looked at her and waited quietly for the next step.

"I told you everything about the case that led to my father's mysterious death 13 years ago, but you haven't fully told me the reason why you came to Daliang. From Cuizhou to Lingzhou, you helped us a lot, and now you are here again Accompanying me to Wuzhou to pick up the goods, I always feel that I can't repay the kindness in my heart, and it will turn into a debt sooner or later. Since you have something troublesome now, why don't you tell me about it? When we first went on the Bafang Bandit Road today, I noticed someone was following us. , Is he yours?" Yin Luo raised her eyebrows slightly. She was always good at detecting other people's mood swings, but as long as it was not brought to the surface, she would not take the initiative to bring it up.

Chi Linjing did not disguise his emotions in front of her, so when she entered the room and looked at him for the first time, she knew that he was thinking about something important, and it involved Nan Xia.

"The reason why I came to Daliang? Do you really want to know?" Chi Linjing's smile deepened.

Yin Luo nodded, "Although I knew it must be related to Qilin Wood, you told me at that time that you wanted to save people, but you didn't say who you wanted to save. I have guessed many times that this person who has been poisoned by the heart-destroying poison has a lot of consequences for you and For Nan Xia, it must be very important, and there is only one person in the world who fits it."

Yin Luo approached Chi Linjing, looked directly into his eyes, and then slowly said a name: "Little Emperor of Nanxia, ​​Chi Buyu."

Chi Linjing didn't nod or refute, she just looked back at Yin Luo expressionlessly and didn't say anything for a long time.

"I can help you. You can take the rebirth elixir when the matter is done, and I can keep the unicorn wood. How about that?" She offered the conditions.

"Why?" Chi Linjing smiled again, with a flash of inquiry in his eyes: "What do you want the unicorn wood for?"

"The unicorn wood is something from the Heavenly Mirror on Daliang. It should be sealed in the Yushi Golden Pagoda on Changlinya. The past and the past should also be determined by Yu Ruyi. Besides, my father died because of the unicorn wood 13 years ago, so I must hold this object. Enter the palace and confront Emperor Chongwen, so that you can understand the truth of what happened back then." Yin Luo smiled brightly, and the calculation in his eyes was clearly extinguished, like a candle at an angle in the room. "Are you going to threaten Emperor Chongwen with unicorn wood?"

"Don't say it so harshly. I'm just a bandit. How dare I threaten His Majesty?" She smiled even more slyly.

"Okay." Chi Linjing agreed, and then asked the question he asked in Jiangnan at that time: "Is the Qilin wood really not in your and Yu Ruyi's hands now?"

"No." Yin Luo shrugged slightly, "Ayu and I were also lured to Shangjing by Qilin Mu."

"lead?"

"At the beginning of spring this year, that is, the day before the Kirin wood was lost. A theater troupe came to Shangjing City. They didn't even build a stage. They just stood on the official road of the city and sang straight away. They sang something that the people of Shangjing had never heard before. A new script. At first, everyone just watched it for fun, and didn't realize anything was wrong without thinking deeply about it. But the troupe sang as they entered the city, and actually sang all the way to the front gate of the palace. The imperial guards were ordered to drive them away, but The opera singer disappeared out of thin air. According to the words of the opera, someone who was interested in the opera pieced together that the scene they sang was clearly an old case that happened in the palace 13 years ago. The protagonist in the opera was called Cooking Lang, and the prototype was my father. In the play, Cooking Lang was holding a man in his arms The rabbit hanging on it is the unicorn wood in reality."

"The news reached Jingzhumen. Yu Ruyi was responsible for guarding the unicorn wood. Hearing that he naturally wanted to go to the capital, I have been searching for the truth about my father's death for a long time. How can I just sit idly by and ignore it? As for the news that the unicorn wood is in our hands. , originally," Yin Luo chuckled, "Yu Ruyi made it up, saying that he was going to use the trick and investigate whoever fell into the trap. But otherwise? Facts have proved that this bad idea from this bad guy is still very useful, Lian Nan Xia Regent of the Royal Capital..." She stopped talking at this point, perhaps because she couldn't find the right adjective to describe Chi Linjing's current relationship with them, or perhaps because Chi Linjing had the same purpose as them.

"What? Have you all taken the bait?" Chi Linjing still had a smile on her lips, not caring about the other meaning in Yin Luo's words.

"I didn't say that." Yin Luo looked like he understood everything.

"Buyu's body is getting weaker. Before this year's winter solstice, I must find the unicorn tree and return to Southern Xia to save him." Chi Linjing said straightforwardly, speaking from the bottom of his heart. We have been together for so long, and from the day and night interactions, he can be sure that Yin Naturally, there is no need to be wary of what kind of person Luo is, not to mention that the relationship between the two is closer than before, and there is really nothing to hide.

"Is that so?" Yin Luo frowned, with obvious worry in her expression, and her mind turned twice.At the moment, she and Chi Linjing each have important matters. She has to protect the coal mine that was robbed by King Yuanjin to ensure that he will not use this to attack the soldiers and people of Daliang this winter, while Chi Linjing is. We must find the Resurrection Pill for the little emperor of Southern Xia before the winter solstice...

Although she and Yu Ruyi did hold on to the fantasy of finding the unicorn wood while tracing the truth 13 years ago at first, so many things happened one after another along the way, and the truth about Yin Jielin's death 13 years ago was brought to the corner. She believed It won't take long for the truth to come to light, but the Kirin wood related to this old case has never been found.

To this day, she still can't figure out who is responsible for the troupe that appears and disappears inexplicably?What does it represent in this gloomy beam?

The words in her heart were blocked by something unknown, and Yin Luo was brewing words: "Then what should we do now?" She raised her eyes and looked at Chi Linjing: "Split up? Or?"

"Together." Chi Linjing answered first. He looked back at Yin Luo calmly. The moment the two met their eyes, he seemed to see a little dependence on him in Yin Luo's eyes, and she was reluctant to let go.

Chi Linjing confirmed his mind almost at this moment.

"Together."
