Chapter 62 A city full of portraits

After walking for about an hour, the road under Qi Yue's feet gradually became smoother. After walking along the flat road for a while, he could only hear the sound of rushing water and the sound of unknown birds chirping, which brought some echoes.

The place where there is echo must be a low-lying place like a valley.

After walking here for about half a stick of incense, they were taken into a room. The door opened, and Qi Yue was sat on a bench. Her attendants pulled her around until the black cloth was removed from her eyes.

.

Her eyes had been covered for too long, and she felt a little uncomfortable when she was suddenly removed. She blinked her eyes and adjusted to the dazzling skylight, and then she saw clearly that she was now sitting in a farmhouse.

The furnishings in the room are simple, with only a table and four benches in the middle.

The attendant who took them down the mountain had disappeared. Qi Yue looked at Yin Baiyi and asked, "Can we leave now?"

Yin Baiyi nodded, "Okay, but you have to cover your face before going out."

Qi Yue was puzzled, even a little confused, "Don't you think it's weird that you ask me to cover my face when I'm walking on the street?"

Yin Baiyi did not answer, but took out a silver-white mask from the baggage Duan Mufeng gave him. The mask was only half, covering the lower half of his face from the nose bone down.

"This half-face-covering mask is now popular. They are mostly made to be worn by people with disfigured faces. Later, good-looking styles were derived. Some people who pursue good looks will also wear them. It is no surprise that if you wear them,

No one will find it strange."

Yin Baiyi took a bite of the steamed bun in his hand and said, "It's a long journey and I can't fit in anything other than steamed buns and big cakes. Just eat some."

To capture her alive, did Shen Jinyu want to capture her and interrogate her personally? Then why did she stress that she would not be harmed at all? Is it because she was afraid that she would not be able to avoid her own death?

"We are catching wild game and we are not trying to run away. Are you worried? The antidote is on you. Even if we want to run away, where can we go without our lives?" Qi Yue said angrily.

The two worked hard for a while, and finally skewered the rabbit and grilled it. After a while, the tangy meat aroma filled the nostrils, and Qi Yue drooled with greed. She looked at Yin Baiyi on the side, who was lying on his side with his hands on his hands.

Turn your back to Qi Yue and the others.

Qi Yue was speechless and slumped down resignedly, "You are the only one who loves to eat steamed buns. I will choke you to death."

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhao Zhao suddenly touched Qi Yue's arm, "Shhhhhh! Look, look there!"

Yin Baiyi immediately refused: "You can't go, you two can't leave my sight for even half a step."

She didn't dare to make a sound for fear of scaring the rabbit away, and looked at Zhao Zhao. Zhao Zhao raised his right hand, pulled the trigger of the hidden sword and pointed it at the rabbit. Hearing a "chirp" sound, the hidden sword accurately shot into the rabbit's body.

, the rabbit instantly fell to the ground, its legs still struggling.

"Yin Baiyi, how long does it take to reach Jinling?" Qi Yue, who was full, asked, leaning on the tree trunk.

Qi Yue is a modern person after time travel. When she goes out, she either takes a taxi or takes a train or plane. The worst she can do is to buy a shared electric car. How can she rely solely on her legs? However, after riding a horse for a day, her inner thighs were already damaged.

She was bruised and blistered. Fortunately, Duan Mufeng trained her for a year and her physique was perfected, otherwise she would have died on the way sooner or later.

When Qi Yue saw this, he immediately stood up and ran over to catch the rabbit, laughing, "Hahaha, God helped me, it was delivered to the door."

On the afternoon of the second day, they walked out of the mountain road and entered the county town at the foot of the mountain. Once here, Qi Yue finally understood why Duan Mufeng wanted her to wear a mask all the time, because Qi Yue's portraits and old portraits could be seen everywhere.

When something is broken, a new one is posted. As time goes by, the picture on the notice board has become a finger thick.

He stared at the roasted rabbit legs in his hands, feeling a little confused and feeling a little complicated.

Qi Yue looked at Zhao Zhao, who also looked like he couldn't swallow it, "I don't want to eat it either, eh," he suddenly had an idea, "We are in this forest, and there will definitely be some wild animals coming out to look for food in the middle of the night.

Yes, let’s go try and see if we can catch a hare, pheasant or something.”

"OK!"

Qi Yue and his party came out of the village and walked along the forest road towards Jinling. After walking for three days, they bought three horses at a stable. After riding on the horses, they walked much faster.

Zhao Zhao came over and took the rabbit, "I'll skin it, you go make a fire!"

Yin Baiyi closed his eyes and remained unmoved.

"No, it means no," Yin Baiyi's words could not be rejected.

If she hadn't covered her face, she would have been taken away by now.

There is also a line of small words under the portrait, which reads: A reward is being offered for this girl, and she must be captured alive without any harm.

Although Duan Mufeng gave them enough money, they were still on the road and they might not be able to find a place to rest and eat for a day or two, so they basically ate steamed buns and pancakes along the way.

Qi Yue didn't bother with him. He directly grabbed Yin Baiyi's hand and forced the rabbit leg into his hand. Yin Baiyi opened his eyes and Qi Yue had already stood up and left.

Qi Yue looked in the direction of Zhao Zhao's finger. Behind the tree trunk opposite the fire they made, a small white thing moved at the root of the tree. Qi Yue took a closer look and saw that it was a rabbit.

"Stop pretending, I know you're not asleep. Come and eat quickly."

Originally, Qi Yue was angry in her heart and planned to make Yin Baiyi angry to death by not giving him rabbit to eat. But after the rabbit was roasted, she still grabbed a rabbit leg and walked over to Yin Baiyi and squatted down.

Yin Baiyi sat up, looked at the delicious food in front of him, curled up his lips, turned his back to Qi Yue and Zhao Zhao, and ate anyway.

Yin Baiyi ignored him, put away his baggage and took the lead to lead the way.

The portrait at the top should have been posted in the past few days. The portrait was very new. Qi Yue couldn't help but get closer and take a closer look. The person who painted her was very skillful and her features were very vivid. Next to the portrait, Duan Mufeng's wanted notice

It seems a bit old.

Qi Yue looked at the steamed bun in his hand that was so hard that it could kill someone. He lost his temper. He knocked Zhao Zhao on the forehead with the steamed bun and made a dull "bang bang" sound, "Can you get some food next time? This steamed bun

I'm tired of eating big cakes. Didn't Duan Mufeng give you money? I'll buy something else."

"Okay," Qi Yue became interested. She looked at Yin Baiyi lying on the ground and asked, "Please help us make the fire bigger, and we will go catch the hare."

Yin Baiyi wiped his mouth and said, "There are about five or six days left until the appointment. We can enter the city in half a day's walk tomorrow."

The full moon is shining, night insects in the forest are chirping from time to time, and firewood is burning to illuminate the land in front of them. Qi Yue is lying on her side in her clothes and has been running around for days. Now she can fall asleep on the ground.

Zhao Zhao divided the rabbit meat and brought some to Yin Baiyi, "Brother Yin, eat quickly. We haven't eaten anything good these days."

Qi Yue wordlessly took it and put it on, "Why should I wear a mask after you let me out?"

She felt a little sour in her heart. Some aunties who were shopping for groceries passed by her and looked at the portraits with emotion.

"I've been looking for this person for more than a year. As soon as the portrait is broken, a new one is posted. How persistent he must be."

"Isn't that right? It is said that the emperor himself took the lead in looking for it. I'm afraid he has committed some serious crime."

"Absolutely. If he hadn't committed something, why would he be looking for him like this? He was either committing murder or arson, or he was treason and collaborating with the enemy. He needs to be taken back alive for interrogation."
