Chapter 165: There are no dangers on the way

There were people coming and going on the official road, and Song Ruoxi was a little calm. Due to his lack of riding skills and fear of hurting pedestrians, he was not running fast. It is very rare for a woman to ride a horse, which attracted many people's attention. Fortunately, they were in a hurry to go on the road. It was strange that no one would meddle in other people's business afterwards.

During the day, Song Ruoxi was busy rushing to the road, without time to think about it, but as night fell, there were fewer pedestrians on the official road, and they stopped and looked around in a daze. There was no moonlight, and the darkness was gone. The earth was quiet. Occasionally, a few birds cries echoed in the desolation in the dark. Last night, I was just escaping my life, not thinking so much. Now, looking at the silence, empty roads, and strange forests, fear arises.

"Not afraid or afraid, now it is a peaceful event. There will be no trouble, no trouble." Song Ruoxi murmured to himself, calming down a little. While he was hesitating whether to rest on the roadside or continue moving forward, a few strange screams came from the forest, like a wolf roar. He shivered in fear, flattered, and rushed forward in front of the darkness.

I don’t know how long I ran, but the horse refused to run away and lowered its head to chew on the grass on the roadside. Song Ruoxi had no choice but to turn over and get off the horse, lead it, and slowly walk forward. After nightfall, the temperature dropped. Although it would not be frozen, in this kind of weather, if you stay in the wild for a night, you will have to take off half of your skin even if you don’t die. Not to mention, even if you can’t meet thieves in the wilderness or encounter wolves, it will be miserable. It’s better to work harder and keep on rushing!

On the dark night, I walked forward alone, and walked until my legs were numb. I turned around and finally saw a light in front of me. Song Ruoxi walked towards the light. It was a roadside inn. I hesitated for a moment and prayed secretly that this was not a black store. I touched the thirty cents in my arms and plucked up the door.

"Do you want to stay in a hotel?" asked the waiter who opened the door with a smile.

Song Ruoxi clicked, led the horse, and walked in, "How much does it cost to stay for one night in the store?"

The waiter looked at her and said, "Live in a shop for six cents and feeds the horses, and I won't charge you any more."

"Thank you, the shopkeeper." Song Ruoxi took out six cents and handed them to him.

The waiter collected the copper coins and pointed to the horse shed, "Tie the horse there and come in with me."

Song Ruoxi tied the horse, grabbed a few handfuls of fodder and put them in the horse tray, and followed the waiter into the shop. The waiter carried the lamp and led her into the shop for the female family. There were already five people in the shop. Song Ruoxi found an empty shop and lay down. The mattress and quilt were all strangely smelly, which made people vomit. But at this time, he could not be picky. It was God's blessing to have a place to stay. Close his eyes and try to sleep.

"Hey, girl, get up, it's dawn, and it's time to go."

Song Ruoxi was sleeping in a daze and was woken up. He opened his eyes and looked at the small window. It was getting dark, so it was time to get up and go.

"Girl, where are you going?" asked a woman who was combing her hair.

"Go to the mountain tomb." Song Ruoxi tidied up his clothes and took a straw hat and put it on.

"I'll go to the mountain monument, we'll go together." The woman combing her hair smiled.

Another woman said, "I just came from the mountain tomb and heard that something happened in the city and I would not let anyone go in."

"What happened?" Song Ruoxi and the woman who was combing her hair asked at the same time.

"I heard that the prefect lost something and sent a bunch of people to look for it. Those officers and soldiers were so fierce that they were scary. You go to the mountain tomb and keep more snacks!"

Song Ruoxi knew in his heart that it was not that the prefect lost the thing, but that she, Princess Yuxian, but that the princess was lost. It was important to lose the princess and that it would damage the princess' reputation. That would make such an excuse.

"What's throwing?" asked the woman who combed her hair curiously.

"Who knows, I heard it was a treasure given by the emperor." The woman raised her bag, "I won't say anything, I'll leave first."

Song Ruoxi looked at the woman who was combing her hair, "Sister, are you still going to the mountain mausoleum?"

"Go, my nephew gets married, can you not go?" The woman had already combed her hair and packed her things quickly.

"Can I go with you?" Song Ruoxi was afraid of the next night and had to walk alone in the wilderness again. She didn't want to bear the helplessness, panic and fear again, and would rather take the risk of walking with strangers.

"Okay." The woman agreed readily.

"Thank you sister." Song Ruoxi said gratefully.

"It looks like the girl is quite old, but the sound sounds so young, just like a girl's house in a fifteen or sixteen years old." The woman smiled inadvertently.

Song Ruoxi didn't notice the flaws in the sound. After hearing what she said, she changed her mind and sighed: "What's the use of young sounds? This is the age of this face."

The woman smiled, packed up her things, and said, "Girl, let's go."

Song Ruoxi, as she reminded her, did not dare to speak easily, nodded, and followed her out with a hat.

The woman's man lives in the bunk bed on the other side, and the couple drove a single-wheeled donkey cart. Song Ruoxi rode a horse, and the three of them formed a very strange combination.

"Girl, you are not bad, you can ride a horse." The woman smiled.

"I learned from my aunt in my early years. I was impatient and impatient to ride a car." Song Ruoxi pretended to be tough.

After rushing for most of the morning, at noon, the three of them rested by the side of the road. The woman took out a piece of cake and handed it to Song Ruoxi, "Sister, I'll give it to you."

"No need, sister, I have steamed buns." Song Ruoxi took out the remaining steamed buns yesterday and started to chew them.

The woman exchanged glances with the man, and took the gourd containing water again, "Girl, drink some water, don't choke."

Song Ruoxi was always alert to them. He saw them exchanging eyes from the corner of his eyes, and he complained secretly in his heart. She was blind and found two bad guys as fellow travelers. He had to get rid of them. He was afraid of arousing their suspicion, so he didn't dare to refuse again. He reached out to take the gourd in her hand, put it sideways and put it on his mouth, pretending to drink water, and handed the gourd back to the woman, "Thank you, sister."

After eating the steamed buns, Song Ruoxi took the lead and turned over to the horse, slapped the horse's butt hard, and ran away.

"Girl, girl, wait for us." The woman shouted.

Song Ruoxi dared not stop, and she wished she could have wings under her armpits and escape from these two people from afar. She would have set off on her own! Instead, she would be safer.

"Stop calling, I'm afraid we'll have a scar, which alarmed her." The man helped the woman get on the donkey cart, "It's a clever one."

"I heard that sound, it was definitely a bright fruit. I touched her hand, it was tender and smooth. Her face was probably wearing something. If she caught it, she would definitely be able to sell it for a good price. It would be a pity that she would run away like this." The woman's seemingly kind face had a bit of hideous look.

"What's the hurry? She can't run away." A ruthless look appeared on the man's face and waved his whip.

Song Ruoxi was like a frightened bird, riding a horse and running wildly, not caring about whether it would hurt the pedestrian by accident. But the roof was leaking and raining all night. The sky was covered with dark clouds, the sun was hiding, and a thunder came and the rain poured down.

Pedestrians went to the trees on the roadside to hide from the rain. Song Ruoxi was afraid that the two of them would catch up, so they dared not stop and walked forward in the rain. The rain became heavier and he could not see the road ahead. The horse suddenly staggered and almost threw Song Ruoxi out.

Song Ruoxi turned over and got off the horse. After a closer look, the palm of the front foot of the horse fell and the horse could not run anymore. He stared at the horse in a daze, and sadness arose from his heart. Standing in the rain, crying loudly. What did she do wrong? When studying, study hard, improve every day, and after joining work, he is also diligent and working hard. Why should she travel through time and space to suffer this kind of torture?

Crying was useless. After crying for a while, Song Ruoxi stopped crying. She wiped a handful of rain mixed with tears, led the horse, picked up the horseshoe, and walked forward. If she knew who sent someone to kidnap her and cause her to suffer such suffering, she would definitely repay him twice as much.

I don’t know how long it took, but the rain gradually became lighter and stopped. The autumn wind blew with coldness, blew over and on my body, making Song Ruoxi tremble constantly. Suddenly, she heard a rapid sound of horse hooves. Song Ruoxi was shocked and looked up. Someone was coming in front of me. She hurriedly took the horse into the forest by the roadside and squatted down.

As the sound of horse hooves approached, Song Ruoxi looked carefully at the increasingly clear figure. The two rode two, the person running in front, was wearing a dark horse, purple clothes, messy hair, haggard face, and gloomy eyes.

That's not...

"Mo Xun!" Song Ruoxi was overjoyed and wanted to stand up. But after squatting for a long time, his body was trembling with cold again. He ran forward two steps and then fell.

The horse made a neighing sound, and its speed was suddenly stopped. It raised its head and raised its front foot high.

"Xi'er!" Shangguan Moxun heard the faint shouting. When he saw her fall, he felt ache in his heart. He turned over and dismounted, ran over, helped her up, and saw a face full of pockmarks. He was stunned for a moment, stretched out his hand to lift the mask on her face, revealing her beautiful face.

"Mo Xun!" Song Ruoxi forced a smile, "Is it you?"

"It's me, Xi'er, what's wrong with you? Are you injured? Where is the injury?" Shangguan Mo asked his heart all over Song Ruoxi's safety. He had never seen her so embarrassed. Her hair was wet and covered with wet cheeks, her cheeks were red, her lips were scary white, her whole body was soft, and her heart was curdled. The first thing he thought was whether she was injured.

Shangguan Moxun was anxious for a moment and didn't care to hide it. Lu Fengyan followed him. Seeing his true feelings reveal his eyes slightly, his eyes turned slightly, and he felt like he was thinking.

"I was not injured, I..." Song Ruoxi leaned against his chest, as delicate as a flower that was about to be broken by wind and rain.

"It's okay! Don't talk, I'll take you back now." Shangguan Moxun picked her up and walked quickly towards the dark horse, his eyes full of worry and heartache.

Song Ruoxi grabbed his clothes tightly, felt his warmth, put down the big stone in his heart, and then he lost his sober consciousness.

"Uncle Jiu, is it important to Jingchen?" Lu Fengyan asked.
