Chapter 195: Past as yesterday (replenishment)
Jiang Xuening felt that something was really wrong with Xie Wei.
She was just a joke, but after getting his answer, it seemed to cast a heavy shadow. But after thinking about it, there is nothing wrong with it.
After all, it is the truth.
Back then when she was brought back to the capital from the farm, Xie Wei was with her. The difference is that she just went home, but Xie Wei kept his name incognito, and wanted to quietly enter the capital to help Shen Lang win the heir.
Naturally, no one would go to great lengths to kill her.
That time when he assassinated the troublemaker halfway, he was clearly aiming at Xie Wei.
Two years ago, she was the one who got involved in Xie Wei's plot to wipe out the Heavenly Sect two years ago. On the way back to Beijing from Tongzhou, a group of people were also assassinated.
Of course, these dead men are not here for Jiang Xuening.
They all came for the "Ding Fei Shizi" who survived with pity from the heavens.
As for this time, after thinking about it, she felt that she had not offended anyone, and if she had gone to the border alone, she would not have attracted anyone's attention.
The bad thing is that they are on the same road as Xie Wei.
Thinking of this, she frowned even tighter, and couldn't help saying: "Do you know who is going to kill you?"
Xie Wei continued to walk forward with his bow and arrow in his back, saying: "There are too many people who want to kill me."
Jiang Xuening was speechless: "Then what about this time? Daoqin said that the people who teach heaven—"
No, not right.
That's not what Daoqin said.
At this moment, a tense string in her mind trembled suddenly, causing her whole body to shiver violently, as if she had been thrown into icy water, and she suddenly woke up.
At the previous critical moment, what Dao Qin said was not "the Tianjiao would never have such a powerful archer", but "the Tianjiao would never have such a powerful archer"!
Heaven teaches, teaches.
There is a difference of one word, but the deep meaning contained in it is thousands of miles away!
Who would say "Jiaozhong" instead of "Tianjiao"?
Jiang Xuening's eyelids jumped up, and she looked at Xie Wei who was walking in front of her.
Xie Wei didn't seem to realize how much shock was hidden under her abruptly stopped words, or maybe he didn't care at all, he just said: "The gangsters hide their heads and show their tails, and they can't raise such elites. The DPRK and China are inseparable. It doesn’t matter who they are, they will all be killed at that time, and there will be no fish that slip through the net.”
"..."
Jiang Xuening was speechless.
Xie Wei smiled at the front: "I thought you knew my true face."
Understanding is understanding, but vaguely knowing and hearing with one's own ears are not the same feeling.
Jiang Xuening didn't want to know more about him.
The more she knows, the deeper the danger. In her previous life, she had already been involved too deeply in disputes. In this life, she has nothing to ask for after saving the princess.
She looked at the dense forest around her, but she couldn't see the road at all. She felt a little anxious, and at the same time changed the subject calmly, saying, "Aren't we going back?"
Xie Wei said: "There is no one in the carriage, they will find out sooner or later. After a little calculation, we will know when we fled, and we will definitely lay a net on the previous road. If we turn back, we will fall into the net."
Jiang Xuening frowned: "Then where are we going?"
Xie Wei said: "Jinan Mansion."
Jiang Xuening frowned even deeper, she couldn't help doubting: "Sir, do you know the way?"
Xie Wei broke off a branch blocking the way ahead, and said calmly, "To the north of Tai'an is Jinan, all you need to do is to cross this mountain. The most dangerous place is the safest place. Knowing that there are tigers in the mountains, I prefer the tigers." Mountain trip."
Jiang Xuening was completely speechless.
Go ahead to dangers?
God knows if he was accidentally buried in the belly of a tiger!
It is not an easy task to travel in the mountains in late autumn, let alone looking around, the jungle is dense, the wind is howling, and the mountains are rugged and steep. After walking for a long time, people will be out of breath and exhausted.
Xie Wei, with long hands and long legs, opened the way ahead.
Jiang Xuening talked to him a few words at first, but after that she was neither in the mood nor the strength. In just two moments, there was already a layer of sweat on his forehead, he could only walk with his head down, stepping on the footprints left by Xie Wei, and strenuously walked forward step by step.
In the mountains and fields late at night, everything is silent.
Dead branches and rotting leaves spread a thick layer in the forest, which can sink half a foot in shallow places, but can bury half a person's legs in deep places.
The sound of their marching was infinitely amplified in the emptiness.
Sometimes it even makes people suspect that it is not the sound made by themselves, but something else is following behind them.
This feeling is very familiar.
Jiang Xuening thought that she had forgotten it for a long time, but when the same situation and similar situation reappeared, those unbelievable and trivial memories of the past all emerged from a corner that had been covered by darkness for a long time.
Like a reef exposed after the tide has receded.
Although it has changed its original shape and even moved its original position under the erosion of running water and the accumulation of dust and sand, it is still there, has always been there, and has never disappeared.
Only when there is no worldly interference in this world, and the whole person is shrouded in the terrifying nature, can people truly realize their own insignificance, and truly face their deep hearts full of scars.
Xie Wei hadn't heard her speak for quite a while.
I can only hear the sound of walking behind me, sometimes closer, sometimes farther away.
And that gradually obvious gasp.
But she never heard any "slow down" or "wait a minute" request from her.
She just tried to keep up with him.
Xie Wei suddenly felt as if he had returned to that time.
He looked back at her.
Jiang Xuening fell behind. The originally exquisite clothes were scratched a little by the surrounding branches and thorns during the walk, showing a bit of a mess, and a few strands of the combed black hair also fell messily. She picked up a wooden stick and used it as a crutch in her hand, but after all, she was not as tall as him, nor had a particularly strong body, so walking was extremely difficult. It was completely gritted teeth, supported by an unyielding arrogance in his bones.
Like a wild weed.
Silence, tenacity.
That kind of demeanor easily overlapped with the girl who was anxious and self-respecting back then.
Compared with six years ago, she just grew taller and opened up a bit.
Actually nothing really changed.
But Xie Wei suddenly thought: She should be a flower in the garden, not a grass on the plain.
When he got closer, there was a tall tree shadow above his head, which blocked the few stars in the bleak night. Jiang Xuening couldn't see his feet clearly, so he knocked on a tree next to him, protruding from the ground The roots of the tree suddenly staggered.
Xie Wei stretched out his hand to support her.
Two palms clasped together.
Everything seems to be the same as before.
But at that time, she would purse her lips tightly, frown, and would rather fall to the ground than brush his hand away; but now, the grown-up little girl just looked up at him, and after a moment of silence, she turned to him. He said, "Thank you."
It seems that it has not changed, and it seems that something is quietly circulating.
The rest of the way became inexplicably quieter.
Two people have their own thoughts and don't speak.
Sometimes when walking fast, Xie Wei would stop and wait for a while; Jiang Xuening didn't just try to be brave, if there were any hillsides and ravines that he couldn't get through, he would grab Xie Wei's hand and try not to slow himself down.
Xie Wei said, before the snow falls, we must climb over this mountain.
Jiang Xuening then remembered what Daoqin said earlier, to rush to the border before it snowed.
When Dao Qin said, she didn't think deeply;
But when the words were almost the same, from Xie Wei's mouth, she had a not very optimistic guess.
Xie Wei didn't explain anything, another slanting branch blocked the way, he stretched out his hand, and just broke the branch when he heard a rustling sound, something "hissed".
Almost at the same time, a sharp tingling pain came from the index finger of his right hand close to the palm.
His pupils narrowed sharply.
Something bit him, but he didn't make a sound in the darkness, he just pointed at the sharp cut of the broken branch with his backhand, and thrust it into the cold and soft body of the thing, with a faint "chi" sound. Crackling.
Jiang Xuening walked behind, didn't see it at all, and only asked, "What's wrong, sir?"
Xie Wei was afraid of scaring her, so he threw the thing away.
Just said: "It's okay."
The two walked forward for another two hours, after all, they were just mortal bodies, and they would get tired after a long time.
Fortunately, the mountain ahead has finally been climbed.
Jiang Xuening followed Xie Wei out of the woods, and saw a deep valley between the two mountains, a clear stream winding down from a distance. The east is already bright white, the subtle morning light falls from the shadows of the trees, and the thin mist floats like a veil. In the eyes of those who have traveled all the way asceticly, it seems to have turned into a fairyland outside the world.
She was overjoyed, and immediately ran down, squatted by the stream, poured a handful of water on her stained cheeks, and sighed comfortably.
Then I remembered Xie Wei.
Turning around, he shouted: "Sir, we are resting here—Sir?"
Xie Wei did not follow.
When Jiang Xuening turned her head away, she saw him sitting on the edge of a bare rock on the hillside with his eyes closed. Hearing her voice, he didn't open his eyes to look.
After waiting for a while, he still sat still.
Jiang Xuening walked back again, went up the hill, and called again: "Sir?"
Xie Wei gently closed his eyes.
The first light from the sky shone on his face, and there was a kind of sickly paleness.
Jiang Xuening almost thought that he was asleep, and reached out to put his hand on his shoulder, but suddenly saw two deep red blood holes on the index finger of his right hand hanging down on his knee!
At this moment, Jiang Xuening felt a biting chill.
The icy water slid down her cheeks.
She quietly stared at the calm face in front of her, feeling a little almost panic-stricken. She paused for a moment before she realized that she grasped the palm of Xie Wei almost tremblingly, and took his index finger knuckles into her mouth. , **** hard.
A fishy and salty taste gushed out of the blood hole.
She took a small mouthful and spat it out to the side.
My heart panicked for no reason.
Xie Wei moved his eyelashes, opened his eyes calmly, looked at her, but said calmly, "Are you still very afraid of death?"
Jiang Xuening was stunned suddenly.
Her lips were slightly cool, but the tip of her tongue was warm. When she raised her head at this moment, she only met those deep and sober pupils. She was not poisoned by the snake at all, and she was not unconscious at all!
"you!"
In an instant, like the person who was bitten by a snake, she immediately threw away his hand, stepped aside, and looked at him vigilantly and angrily.
Xie Wei slowly withdrew his hand.
The fingers are still warm.
His eyes fell on Jiang Xuening, he didn't move away, but he opened his mouth and sucked the wound heavily. After tasting the taste of blood on the tip of his tongue, he said slowly: "That wandering doctor and charlatan back then didn't teach you to distinguish Is it? Not poisonous."
This is a mockery of her stupidity of cutting her wrists and feeding her blood back then!
Jiang Xuening's chest heaved and he was too angry to speak.
Xie Wei's gaze made her even more terrified of being stared at by a poisonous snake, and even his voice had a shocking calmness: "I am your husband. But you are not a saint or kind. People are like beasts in the barren mountains. If you still want to marry a good man and don’t want to be silenced by me afterwards, I advise you to stay away from me."
Jiang Xuening is not a fool, her eyelids twitched just hearing the words "Desire for the banquet".
However, people are prone to rebellion when they reach the limit.
Fear to the extreme becomes anger.
After falling into such a situation, the surname Xie didn't speak a single word, and the vigor all over her body looked like the word "Zuo". She didn't know which tendon was twisted and which rebellious bone, she sneered One said: "Really? Mr. Xie is very good at self-cultivation and self-cultivation. He doesn't know anything else. Duplicity is really powerful. Don't worry, I don't know who will sleep with whom and who will suffer!"
