Chapter 197: To the North(1/2)

After a few steps to the door of the medical hall, Xin Nianyan paused again.

What she thinks is one thing, but whether Ning Wuji is willing to go to the border is another matter.

Xin Nianyan rubbed her chin and paced at the door.

Just when she was thinking about how to persuade Ning Wuji, the door of the medical hall was opened.

Ning Wuji raised his eyebrows and met her eyes, "Why do you all like to hang around my door?"

Xin Nianyan didn't quite understand what he meant, but he turned aside and raised his chin.

"Come in."

Xin Nianyan stepped in and found a place to sit down.

Hanfeng also walked in and stood next to Xin Nianyan.

Ning Wuji came over with a chessboard in hand. Xin Nianyan was stunned for a moment, then helped him remove the tea set from the table and said.

"I'm not here to play chess with you, I..."

"Play the next game first and talk slowly."

Ning Wuji put down the chessboard and raised his eyes to look at her for a moment.

"If you ask for anything from me, you must follow my rules."

Xin Nianyan: "...Oh."

OK.

Xin Nianyan straightened his figure, the two guessed odd and even, and Xin Nianyan won the first move.

She stretched out her hand and dragged Heizi's wooden chess box over, and directly placed Tianyuan.

Ning Wuji raised his eyebrows and looked at her with some surprise.

"It seems that the Pavilion Master is bound to win."

Xin Nianyan said nothing, but held a chess piece and rubbed it repeatedly on his fingertips.

She was very anxious in her heart, but she couldn't be impatient. The most important thing in chess was to avoid being impatient.

The two of them played this game for half an hour.

Xin Nianyan played this game of chess very aggressively, almost forcing Ning Wuji to have no way out several times.

Ning Wuji secretly laid the next trap, just waiting for Xin Nianyan, who was anxious in his heart, to step into it.

Xin Nianyan lowered his eyes for a moment, then raised his hand and dropped it, falling right into Ning Wuji's trap.

The corner of his lips raised, and he looked at Xin Nianyan with a somewhat proud look.

"The master of the pavilion is so adventurous, don't you worry that all your previous efforts will be wasted?"

Han Feng, who was watching the chess game on the side, noticed the problem and frowned but said nothing.

Xin Nianyan was startled for a moment, pursed her lips and clasped the black seed in her hand.

"No regrets when you make a move."

Ning Wuji then continued to outflank her move. Black was surrounded and his territory became less and less.

Seeing that the situation was over, Xin Nianyan hung up his horns and cut off his tail in order to survive.

Ning Wuji held the white chess piece and looked at it for a long time, then clicked his tongue and shook his head.

"The master of the pavilion is so scheming, Ning is ashamed of himself."

After that, he held two chess pieces and dropped them on the chessboard, throwing them in and admitting defeat.

Xin Nianyan breathed a long sigh of relief. She deliberately took the opportunity to step into a trap to make him relax his vigilance and build up his strength to counterattack.

"Tell me what's going on."

Ning Wuji was convinced of the defeat and picked up a cup of tea.

"Come with me to the north."

"Cough cough cough..." Ning Wuji choked on the tea in the water, with an expression that didn't understand.

"Ah? Say it again?"

I could really hear the cold wind beside me, and my brows tightened in an instant.

"Miss, are you going to the north?"

Xin Nianyan nodded, "My uncle is seriously ill on the front line. I have to go and see him."

"No, the battlefield is dangerous and bloody. I don't trust Miss to be in such danger."

Hanfeng shook his head, his face full of disapproval.

"I don't agree, just let me go and join in the fun by following along?"

Ning Wuji put down the tea cup, "The little girl should stay at home and stay away from the dangers of the battlefield."

"Otherwise, why do you think Qin Han went to war?"

Xin Nianyan was startled for a moment, Ning Wuji coughed and continued to add.

"And your two uncles, aren't they just to protect the helpless wife and daughter at home and to defend the country?"

Xin Nianyan frowned.

"I am not a helpless woman."

Ning Wuji raised his eyes to look at her, his eyes rare and serious.

"If I say no, it won't work. You can let me go, but you have to stay in Kyoto."

Xin Nianyan moved her lips, but before she could say anything, Ning Wuji spoke again.

"I know you are worried about them, but on the battlefield, the sword has no eyes, what use is your three-legged cat's kung fu worth?"

"If you go, you will only distract the people who care about you."

Hanfeng frowned and looked at her. Although he didn't speak, he completely agreed with Ning Wuji's words.

Xin Nianyan stood up, looking extremely serious.

"It's because they have been protecting me. Now that I'm in danger, I have the ability and I should stand up and protect them."

"Now that the frontline has been forced to cease fighting due to the epidemic, and everyone has fallen ill, where will the energy come from to fight again?"

She frowned and looked at Ning Wuji.

"I must go. I don't want to continue to wait pointlessly. I can only worry and pray every day."

"I want to control the outcome in my own hands, do my best, and then listen to fate. Even if the final outcome is not satisfactory, I will not have any regrets."

"You have taught me so much about medical science, and you don't want to see me completely useless."

"Whether you come with me or not, I will go to the front line."

She said, softening her tone and winking at him.

"Will you come with me, Master."

Ning Wuji was stunned by the last two words. He was stunned for a while and then sighed slightly.

"Since you have made up your mind, I can't stop you any more."

"I'm willing to admit defeat. I'll go with you."

He raised his hand to rub his chin and glanced at Xin Nianyan from side to side.

"It's just that I didn't hear clearly what you called me just now. Call me again."

Xin Nianyan clicked his tongue and looked away.

"Don't say good things a second time."

"Hey, shout again, I love hearing it!"

Ning Wuji grinned almost to his ears, teasing her in a drawl.

Xin Nianyan turned her face away and ignored him, "Hanfeng, prepare a convoy for me, disguised as a caravan, I will leave tomorrow."

"The fleet contains commonly used medicinal materials. The more, the better. If you don't have enough money, go get this."

With that said, she took off the jade pendant from her waist and handed it to Hanfeng.

Hanfeng didn't take it, he walked up to Xin Nianyan, lifted up his clothes and knelt down.

"If the young lady insists on taking risks, I will bring the cold wind to protect you personally."

Xin Nianyan was stunned for a moment, "No need, Wu and Shanjiu are sometimes around me. They are good at protecting me."

Hanfeng raised his head, "But..."

However, Xin Nianyan stepped over quickly and helped him up, "Don't worry, I'm not in the capital, and you still need to be in charge of Feiyan Pavilion."

"I don't trust it if I leave it to others."
