If there is no ferry on this section of the waterway, it is impossible for ordinary people to pass by swimming, let alone winter.

Xie Changgeng just relied on his extraordinary nature to walk on the waterway when he was a young man, and under impulse, he went into the water and crossed the water.

Even though he was young and strong, he floated several times in the middle to supplement his physical strength, but when he finally ended this long journey and his feet touched the hard ground, he was already exhausted and almost exhausted.

He lay on a weed beach on the shore, from head to toe, and there was no place that kept overflowing. He closed his eyes and rested for a while. After his physical strength recovered, he climbed up with difficulty, rubbed his hands and feet, which were almost stiff by the lake, and turned toward the medicine house based on his memories from many years ago.

Guards were also arranged at the intersection of the mountain road leading to Yaolu.

He bypassed, climbed up from the back mountain, and approached the Medicine House.

Not far ahead, a guard standing guard blocked his way.

He pulled out the dagger that was inserted between his waist and quietly leaned behind the guard.

The guard seemed to notice something strange, but before he could turn around, he was tightly held on his throat from behind.

Xie Changgeng was about to cut the guard's throat, but his hand stopped.

He raised his eyes, looked at the room in front of him, hesitated for a moment, and then slammed the opponent's neck hard, knocked the person unconscious, and dragged him into the grass.

It's late night.

This night, for the first time in his life, he had done such a risky move that had almost never considered the consequences.

He recognized the figure standing behind the window at a glance, and it was the person he must see tonight no matter what.

He finally got what he wanted and got close to the woman. He was about to show up, but he saw that Mother Mu came over, as if he was trying to persuade her to go and rest.

Her figure disappeared from behind the window, and the window was closed.

Xie Changgeng held his breath and stopped beside the dim window wall, waiting for Mom Mu to leave.

The footsteps gradually faded away, and the talkative loyal servant finally left.

But outside the wall, the figure in the night frozen.

Xie Changgeng's heart was beating wildly, as if it was about to be broken.

His clothes were wet and cold, covering his skin tightly, and his back was wet, unable to tell whether it was the water brought out of the lake or the layers of cold sweat that had just flowed out.

From the moment he jumped into the water and flew towards her desperately, he wished he could put on his wings and see her immediately.

There have always been so many doubts in his heart. He has been holding on and telling himself not to care. Until a few days ago, he recalled his first meeting with her. He could no longer tolerate it. He knew that he had to get her answer and hide nothing to end the troubles and torture that had been added to his heart for a long time.

It was this kind of spirit that drove him to come here at this moment.

He didn't expect that what greeted him would be such an unexpected scene.

The words she said about him were heartbroken, and he could not refute him, and even felt a sense of shame as if he was stripped naked in public and had nowhere to hide.

It's fine. He is not a good person at all, and he never regards himself as a good person. What he heard later was a real shock to him.

He knew she had always hated herself.

But if he hadn't heard it tonight, he would probably never have known that she was actually far more than disgust, but hatred for him.

How much hatred is that a woman can do such a ruthless move on herself. Her only purpose is to draw a clear line with him?

Once, he thought that being betrayed by his wife would be the biggest setback in his life.

During those days that had passed and could not be let go, he would be angry, jealous, unwilling, and perhaps, a little bit of pain whenever he thought of this.

However, compared with her determination to destroy her innocence and take stigma from herself, all his anger, jealousy, unwillingness, and some pain before seemed so ridiculous.

Only then did he realize that he was heartbroken tonight.

He could no longer move forward, nor could he take the steps to leave.

The cold wind blew past him in waves.

He was as if he was frozen in this winter night, and in this dark night, he moved towards the window that was tightly closed towards him, until a commotion broke out behind him.

"There are assassins! Protect the Lord!"

The sound of rapid footsteps came one after another.

A sharp pain came from his back, as if he was bitten by a beast with sharp teeth.

He slowly turned his head and saw a torch light coming from behind him, and more than a dozen guards rushed into the yard.

Several guards Zhang Gong shot the row of arrows just now at him.

Mu Fulan got up in her clothes and opened the door.

In the yard, there were tinkers and guards standing full of nervous-looking faces.

She looked at the surrounding assassin and was stunned.

She actually saw Xie Changgeng.

He stood stiffly in a strange posture, from head to toe, wet, as if he was crawling out of the water, his face was so white that it was bloodless.

As if he heard the movements from her, he turned his neck stiffly, faced towards her, and looked over, his eyes fixed on her face.

He looked at her for a moment, raised his feet with difficulty, as if he was about to walk towards her, but his shoulders moved, and his face showed a look of pain, and his body shook, and he fell down.

Only then did Mu Fulan see clearly that several sharp arrows were deeply inserted into his back.

The bright red blood slowly overflowed from his wet clothes and flowed to the ground.

"The guards of the humble power of the escort were not in good condition, and the assassin made the master frightened! The humble power of the escort deserves to be killed!"

The commander of the guard tonight had never seen Xie Changgeng before, so he naturally did not recognize him. Seeing that the assassin was controlled, he hurriedly knelt down to Mu Fulan.

After a while, she didn't react. He raised his eyes and saw her staring at the assassin who had fainted on the ground, with a strange look. He thought she was too frightened, so he hurriedly ordered his subordinates to remove the assassin immediately.

Mu Fulan closed her eyes and said, "Come in."

Everyone was stunned and stopped.

"Come in!"

Mu Fulan raised her voice and repeated her orders.

...

It seemed like a long sleep. When Xie Changgeng woke up from a coma, there was such a short moment that he didn't know where he was and what happened.

But soon, the scenes before losing consciousness quickly returned to his mind.

He quickly opened his eyes and saw himself lying in a square room. The room was not big and was decorated with clean furnishings. There was a faint fragrance of herbs floating in the air.

He understood.

This is still a medicine house.

He endured the pain from his back and struggled to sit up. He was about to get off the ground when he saw the door open, and a honest boy came in.

He recognized this young man should be the boy in the medicine house he had met when he visited Yaoweng.

Seeing that he was awake, Ada was very happy. He put down the things in his hand, stepped forward to help him, and asked him to lie back, saying that he would change his medicine first and then let him eat something.

"Sir, you've been sleeping for so long, are you hungry? I've cooked porridge for you."

Xie Changgeng smiled, nodded, and then slowly lay down, asking, "How long have I slept?"

He started to speak, and heard his voice hoarse, like the sound of a hammered gong, extremely harsh.

A Dadao: "Sir, the arrow on your back is not very injured, you have a fever again, and you have been in a coma for three days."

Xie Changgeng closed his eyes for a moment, opened his eyes again, turned his head, looked at the direction outside the door behind him, and whispered: "Has the Lord saved me? Where is her?"

A Dadao: "The Lord of the Man left last night and took all the people away. Today, the only Lord and I are left in the medicine house. The Lord of the Man ordered me to serve the Lord. Before leaving, he told me, "Sir, you should be able to wake up today. As long as you wake up, you will be fine. The Lord of the Man also asked me to tell the Lord that if you rest a few more days, the Lord of the Man of the Man can leave by himself. The Lord of the Man of the Man of the Man of the Man of the Man of the Man of the Man of the Man of the Man of the Man of the Man of the Man of the Man of the Man of the Man of the Man of the Man of the Man of the Man of the Man of the Man of the Man of the Man of the Man of the Man of the Man of the Man of the Man of the Man of the Man of the Man of the Man of the Man of the Man of the Man of the Man of the Man of the Man of the Man of the Man of the Man of the Man of the Man of the Man of the Man of the Man of the Man of the Man of the Man of the Man of the Man of the Man of the Man of the Man of the Man of the Man of the Man of the Man of the Man of the Man of the Man of the Man of the Man of the Man of the Man of the Man of the Man of the Man of the Man of the Man of the Man of the Man of the Man of the Man of the Man of the Man of the Man of the Man of the Man of the Man of the Man of the Man of the Man of the Man of the Man of the Man of the Man of the Man of the Man of the Man of the Man of the Man of the Man of the Man of the Man of the Man of the Man of the Man of the Man of the Man of the Man of the Man of the Man of the Man of the Man of the Man of the Man of the Man of the Man of the Man of the Man of the Man of the Man of the Man of the Man of the Man of the Man of the Man of the Man of the Man of the Man of the Man of the Man of the Man of the Man of the Man of the Man of the Man of the Man of the Man of the Man of the Man

Xie Changgeng remained silent and stopped talking. He let Ada change the medicine. After changing the medicine, he ate a bowl of porridge silently, then put on his clothes and got off the ground. As soon as his feet fell to the ground, he felt dizzy and his body shook slightly.

Ada hurriedly supported him.

"Sir, where are you going? You just woke up and are very sick. You should lie back. What else do you want to eat, just tell me..."

Xie Changgeng closed his eyes and calmed down. When the dizziness passed, he walked out of the room, stood for a moment, then took a step and walked out.

He was about to go out, how dare Ada forcefully stop him. But seeing his expression and his steps were sluggish, he remembered the advice that Master Weng had told him before leaving, asking him to take good care of his adults, how dare he let him go around alone, so he had to follow him firmly.

The mountains were empty, and there were no traces of people except him.

He walked out of the back door, broke a branch on the side of the road as a stick, leaned on it, followed the mountain path, and walked slowly. Along the way, without saying a word, he finally arrived at the thousand-year-old cypress rooted on the edge of the cliff, and stopped.

The old cypress has twisted branches and is as vast as a cover. Above the branches, there are about ten bird nests of all sizes.

It was during the day that the big birds went out to find food, but disappeared. In the bird's nest, there were only a few small birds, making tender and crisp squeaking sounds.

He stood up, his figure was silent, looking up at the chicks in the nest, as if he was intoxicated. After a long time, he walked over slowly, sat under the tree, leaned against the trunk, and closed his eyes.

The sunlight spread from the gap between the trees and fell on his pale face. He did not move, his head slightly tilted, as if he had fallen asleep.

Ada didn't dare to speak, and was quietly accompanying him. After a long time, he saw his eyelashes slightly moved, opened his eyes, turned his face, and whispered to himself: "Go and tell her. If she doesn't plan to come here to see me, I will enter the city and go to the palace to see her."
