The sun is rising, and the old traces are walking in the mist of the morning.

He took a step closer and further away from the corpses on the ground, and sometimes he had to avoid the mud mixed with blood and loess. Later, he stopped hiding because there were too many blood stains and he could not escape.

The night is gentle, it hides blood and corpses in invisible places. Only when dawn is dawn can you see the tragic tragedy of the war.

On the dirt road, border infantry shuttled through the bodies, and they piled the bodies of the people, border troops, and Tiance troops on a cart.

When corpses were stacked high on the cart, their arms, legs and heads were hanging weakly, without being angry or dignified.

When an old soldier from the border saw the appropriate boots, he immediately sat next to the corpse, peeled off the boots of the corpse with a smile, and put them on his feet neatly.

The old soldiers of the border army said in surprise: "Fit! These thieves in Jing Chao are so good. They have sent their boots from thousands of miles away... comfortable!"

Someone laughed and scolded, "You don't even wash it or wear it?"

The old soldier of the border army cursed and said, "When I wash the outside of the camp, I don't know which grandson will be touched away. At the 25th year of Jianing, I finally got a pair of boots back from Qu Wushan. After washing and drying, he just wore Lao Yao's feet..."

As he was talking, the old soldier of the border army remembered that Lao Yao was no longer there and had just been pulled away by another cart.

In silence, someone patted him on the shoulder: "Look for another pair of boots and burn them for Lao Yao."

The old man from Bianjun put on his boots, patted his butt and stood up, grinned and said, "It's like pulling the balls, what are the dead people doing with such good boots? If I find good boots again, I'll hide them and change them!"

It's so ugly that I laugh than crying.

Chen Ji did not go back to meet with the others, but came to the place where the shopkeeper of Longmen Inn died. The other party fell to the spot, maintaining his death.

He thought for a moment, carried the shopkeeper's body and walked towards the inn.

Along the way, the surviving people of Guyuan rushed over and passed by him.

Some people stood in front of their burned house, staring blankly, while others pounced on a corpse and cried.

Chen Ji walked by them silently, feeling that everything had passed, and it seemed that it had not passed yet. War will leave scars on everyone, and it is in their hearts if they are not on their bodies.

When he arrived at Longmen Inn, Chen Ji shouted to it: "Is anyone?"

No one answered.

Xiaowu, Xiaoliu and others didn’t know where they went.

Chen Ji was silent for a long time, gently put the shopkeeper down and made him sit on the door frame on the right. He leaned on the other side and stared at the desolate Kucha Street in a daze.

He whispered softly: "In the winter of the 14th year of Jianing, General Wen Tao was framed by the Chen family and Xu family, and Ling Chi was executed. Then, his subordinate, Mr. Hu San, and his sworn sister, killed the former shopkeeper of Longmen Inn overnight to avenge him. Guy, and hung it on the twelve flags, right?"

The shopkeeper closed his eyes and could never answer Chen Ji's questions, but Chen Ji didn't know who he could ask again.

He continued to speculate on his own: "A few years later, Mr. Hu and his friends found out that the culprit was not the shopkeepers, so they resigned and went to Beijing to take revenge. General Wen Tao's sworn sister pretended to marry into the Chen family, and then set up a plan to kill the Minister of the Chen family's Ministry of Revenue and take his head back to Jingchao... right?"

No one answered.

Chen Ji sighed and all this was just his guess. Only this guess can make many things make sense... But even so, there are still many things that cannot make sense.

Do you want to check it?

Chen Ji doesn't want to check it.

What does the unjust case that many years ago have to do with him? He only needs to rescue the princess, and then take the princess away to Jingchao or take a boat to sea, the rest has nothing to do with him.

After a while, Chen Ji came to his senses, climbed up to the third floor, and retrieved their luggage.

He took a clean shirt from his luggage and went to the backyard, took off his torn clothes and stood in front of the water tank in the yard, pouring a can of cold water from the top of his head.

The soil and blood in the body and hair were washed away by the biting cold water.

It was not until this moment that Chen Ji felt that he was alive again.

However, at this moment, the sound of tiles loosening came from a distance.

He picked up his clothes and flicked into the stable, quickly putting on his clothes. When he came out again, he saw Jiaotu wearing black clothes, leaning on the eaves of the second floor of Longmen Inn, and his calves hang down from outside the eaves and swaying gently.

Yun Yang stood beside her, with his hands in his sleeves, and his expression was cold.

When the two saw Chen Ji coming out, Jiaotu covered her mouth and said with a smile: "Why is the stingy sir, and she doesn't show her body. When she heard that we were coming, she hurriedly hid in the stable."

Yun Yang said coldly: "What's the good thing about him?"

Chen Ji tied his belt while saying as if nothing happened: "What's the point of doing for you guys?"

Jiaotu sat upright and said meaningfully: "Of course I'm here to ask the adults, but what contributions can be used to help us return to the zodiac sign as soon as possible. Have you forgotten what the adults promised?"

Chen Ji tied his belt and leaned against the stable to concentrate on his guard. But he said with ease: "Isn't this important thing for Guyuan to do? It means that the inner minister trusts both of you, and it's a matter of time to return to the zodiac position."

Jiaotu said casually: "The sudden emergence of Mr. Feng is in the limelight. He has been dormant in the Liu family for seven years and is now here in Guyuan to take charge of the overall situation. Maybe after returning to Beijing, he will replace us and become a new zodiac."

Chen Ji was confused, Jiaotu and Yunyang didn't know that Mr. Feng was the white dragon.

He said quietly: "Or, you can secretly kill him on your way back to Beijing, so that he can't replace you."

Jiaotu’s white fingers wrapped around his hair and said with a smile: “Mr. Chen is not kind, I want to deceive us to die? That Mr. Feng is unfathomable, we will not be fooled.”

Chen Ji spread his hands: "I'm just giving a suggestion... But the two adults don't have to worry about Mr. Feng. Maybe he doesn't look down on the ordinary zodiac position at all?"

Jiaotu was stunned: "What do you mean?"

Chen Ji casually said, "Don't everyone say that Lord Sick Tiger is going to retire? Maybe Mr. Feng returned to Beijing to pick up the position of Sick Tiger?"

Jiaotu and Yunyang subconsciously looked at each other, and both felt that what Chen Ji said was more likely.

Yun Yang whispered: "Don't talk to this kid Moji, he is a ghostly spirit. Who knows what purpose he has to say? Tell me the serious business."

Jiaotu said seriously: "Mr. Chen, I came here just to eliminate each other's misunderstandings. If you offend me before, I hope you will not remember the villain's mistakes."

After saying that, she stood up and gave a blessing to the corner of the eaves. She turned around and saw that Yun Yang was not moving, and immediately pulled the other party's sleeves. Yun Yang bowed reluctantly.

Chen Ji did not answer, and he didn't know what the other party was selling in the gourd.

Jiaotu continued, "Sir, you are about to go back to the capital, but you still don't know the danger of the capital. As subordinates, we naturally have to tell you one or two... Do you want to listen?"

Chen Ji casually said, "Mr. Jiaotu has changed his temperament and has started to do good deeds? Then listen."

Jiaotu shook his head: "I'm not talking for nothing. How does Lord Chen plan to repay me?"

Chen Ji asked: "What does Lord Jiaotu want?"

Jiaotu said with a smile: "Mr. Chen took off his clothes and showed me, and I'll tell him."

Chen Ji raised his eyebrows, but heard Yun Yang say angrily: "Look at what he does?"

The rabbit laughed so hard that the flowers were trembling: "Who are you me, what's there to be anxious about? Among colleagues, Lord Yunyang is too polite!"

Yun Yang wanted to say something but stopped, but in the end he didn't say anything.

Chen Ji looked at Jiaotu and Yunyang: "If Lord Jiaotu wants to use me to stimulate Lord Yunyang, there is no need."

Jiaotu blew: "What are you trying to do? You're boring!"

She sat back on the eaves and looked dull: "Although Silijian is a place to raise gu, it is common for you to make plans from time to time, but there are two people who cannot provoke, one is a mountain bull and the other is Wu Xiu."

Chen Ji: "Oh?"

Jiaotu looked at his nails lazily and said slowly: "The mountain bull is guarding the inner minister in Jiefan Tower and is in good condition. If he is provoked, he will be provoked. Naturally, he will not have a good end."

Chen Ji nodded: "Where is Wu Xiu?"

Jiaotu narrowed his eyes slightly: "Wu Xiu is the eunuch who is the chief eunuch of the Silijian. Now he is getting the holy family and is listening to the mistress by His Majesty. This man is vicious and vicious, and wants to get rid of us and wait. He has just left the master of the inner minister to understand the authority of the Fuwei. Lord Chen must not have any handle in his hands."

Chen Ji said casually: "Mr. Jiaotu is so kind to remind me?"

Yun Yang was about to speak when Jiaotu raised his head and glared at him. Yun Yang closed his mouth again.

She smiled and said to Chen Ji: "Today I just want to tell Lord Chen that not only we can use you, but you can also use us. Lord Chen, the capital is dangerous, we must watch over each other, but don't forget the agreement between us."

Chen Ji bowed and said, "I dare not forget."

Jiaotu smiled and said, "That's good. When I return to the capital, Yunyang and I will be waiting for the order of the Lord. We both wait for the big lord in the Silijian Yamen."

Just now, a rustling sound came from the stable.

Chen Ji turned around and suddenly saw Xiao Wu poking his head out of the secret passage, with some straw on his head.

When Xiao Wu saw Chen Ji, he asked curiously: "Your guest...what are you doing here?"
