Along the way, there was no one in the garden, there was a quiet surrounding, and the back door was hidden.

As soon as Ren Jinglei reached out and pushed, the door opened.

Outside is the street, not many people at this time.

Ren Jinglei led the horse and walked out of Pei's compound.

Taking this step is a step out of life.

Obviously, it is an urgent moment. He should ride a horse and run to the city gate as fast as possible. While the news has not yet spread, he will leave Beijing as the commander of the five city soldiers and horses. Ren Yuyue, Tian Gao let the birds fly.

However, Ren Jinglei felt that the whole man was lazy, and people around him seemed to be lonely. He took the horse and slowly walked on familiar streets, like walking in a strange world. All people in this world Pedestrians in a hurry, screaming one after another, are far apart and alienated.

His pace was not slow or slow, and the whole man seemed to be immersed in an illusory dream.

Walking to the other end of Qingyunfang, two figures came into his eyes.

The dream suddenly woke up!

Mrs. Jiang took her daughter Min Niang's hand and walked through the street market. They seemed to be going home. Min Niang was looking up to her mother and saying something.

The setting sun and the radiant rays of light fell on the mother and daughter, with unparalleled warmth and softness.

Ren Jinglei's eyes softened.

Suddenly, Mrs. Jiang seemed to feel something. She turned her head and the other end of the street was empty. Only three or two passers-by hurriedly passed the market.

What a weird feeling just now!

Mrs. Jiang turned back in surprise, and laughed abruptly, and took her daughter back home from the backyard door.

Ren Jinglei, who was hiding in the alley, quietly breathed a sigh of relief. After waiting for another moment, he probed out and was convinced that the mother and daughter had left before turning out of the alley.

The twilight was getting darker, and the sky was overcast. Seeing that another heavy rain was brewing.

This autumn, there is a lot of rain in Beijing!

The pedestrians hurried up the street. Ren Jinglei took the horse and continued to move forward. When he passed the back door of Jiang's house, he paused inadvertently.

Then he saw a small head sticking out from behind the gate.

"Big brother." Min Niang opened her eyes wide and showed pure joy. "It was you just now, I saw it!"

This quirky little thing!

Even though his mood had been suppressed to the extreme, Ren Jinglei laughed, and he squatted down: "Hurry back, aren't you afraid of being discovered?"

"Not afraid. The grandmother who guards this door is lazy and tight. Every time this time, she sneaks away to play cards and drink, and no one will find it."

Min Niang's gaze fell on Mu Xue's back bag and asked, "Brother, are you going far away?"

Ren Jinglei nodded.

"Then when will you come back?"

Ren Jinglei shuddered and didn't answer.

Min Niang felt the sadness of parting intuitively. She took a step forward, grabbed Ren Jinglei's clothes, and asked, "Are you coming back soon?"

"I'm going far away, far away ..." Ren Jinglei said hardly.

After finishing the words, watching the little girl's bright big eyes floating with mist, he turned sharply again and laughed: "But he will still come back, maybe soon, maybe, it will take a few years, for example, waiting for you When I grow up. "

"Then you must come back." Min Niang refused to let go, pulling her placket.

Ren Jinglei smiled wryly and touched her little head. Talking insincerely promise, "I will come back, if one day ... filial piety to your mother at home, and don't tell others about me, or you will be scolded."

"I know." Min Niang nodded smartly.

Ren Jinglei wanted to say something more, and suddenly there was a sound from behind. Someone came towards this small door.

"Go back." He could only urge.

Seeing Min Niang still standing at the door and looking at him reluctantly, Ren Jinglei stood up and turned away heartily.

He didn't look back all the way, as if he could feel that Min Niang's eyes still fell on himself.

At the same time, a subtle sound was captured in the ear.

"Min Niang, why are you here?" The voice was soft and gentle, it was the gentle and elegant Mrs. Jiang.

With the eyes of Ren Jinglei disappearing around the corner, Min Niang turned her head and whispered: "There was a big brother just now, others are very good."

"Big brother?" Mrs. Jiang frowned. When she came over just now, she faintly saw the back of a young man disappearing around the corner, and he felt a little inexplicable.

She shook her head and whispered: "You can't run out casually in the future, you child, why are you so careless, what to do if you run into a kidnapper? And she was seen by a subordinate, and it was revealed to Mrs. Tai, she must scold you "Even if it was scolding, her voice was soft.

Min Niang wanted to say something, but nodded docilely to the elder brother's call.

Leaving the boundary of Qingyunfang, as if finally woke up from a dream, Ren Jinglei turned over.

Horses galloping towards the Nancheng Gate, the gate is about to be unlocked, and several officials of the Wucheng Warrior Division are taking stock of today's gate records. Seeing Ren Jinglei coming over, he quickly bowed down and saluted.

I heard that the head boss was going out of town, and naturally, no one was blocking it and let it go.

Even the officer of the city guard thoughtfully asked his boss if he needed a raincoat to protect himself from the rain.

Ren Jinglei smiled and thanked, but did not pick up the rain gear, and rushed straight out of the gate.

A ride on the dust, disappeared into the distance.

"Why is General Ren going out of town at this hour, and not even the accompanying guards?" Some soldiers couldn't help wondering. General Ren Jinglei, a general of this level, usually travels with his soldiers.

"Perhaps there is an emergency military service. Go to the Perak camp." The officer guessed.

Although he was transferred to the commander of the Wucheng Bingma Division, in the eyes of the Da Zhou military, Ren Jinglei was still from the Perak camp, and was originally the adopted son of General Pei.

"Hope not to catch the rain. The Perak camp is a long way from the city gate." A slightly older soldier looked up at the sky.

Ren Jinglei is well-known in the Perak Camp. He has a bright and cheerful personality and is kind to people. Even the subordinate soldiers have always been good-looking. Even the camps of Shenshen and Pingxi, which are not in harmony with the Perak camp, are also very kind to him. Coming to Wucheng Bingmasi, as always, won the hearts of the people.

Several soldiers said a few words casually, one after another performing their duties.

However, for half an hour, with the eyes closed, it was time for the gate to be closed, and the fighters of the five city soldiers and horses stepped forward to push the gate together.

Under the impetus of twelve strong men, the huge gate made of gold and iron made a harsh noise and closed slowly.

The sky was gloomy, as if the night came early.

At this moment, suddenly a team of knights ran across the street. It's rare to run a horse like this on official roads.

In an instant, the cavalry approached the gate.

"Open the door!" The leading officer shouted sharply.

The chief of the gate of Wucheng Bingmasi was startled, and from the clothes he had recognized, came the officer of Pingxiying. The leader shouting was the military officer Wei Yangcheng.

What's alarming is that this team of cavalry not only hurried, but also carried dozens of fierce hounds.

What the gatekeeper wanted to say, suddenly the cavalry separated, and a figure emerged.

Cui Yan's handsome and beautiful face, under the reflection of the huge torch of the city gate, seemed to be more eye-catching, but also more cold-hearted.

"Ren Jinglei is gone?"

He asked coldly.

The commander of Pingxiying and the officials at the city gate all recognized it, and suddenly became nervous.

"General Ren just left the city half an hour ago," an official replied.

"Open the city gate, immediately!" Cui Wei's voice was full of teeth.

The chief of the city gate was at heart, but still asked the law impartially: "After the city gate is closed, you cannot enter or exit unless there is a palace ..."

Cui Min raised his hand, and the same golden-like thing radiated in an arc and fell in front of the city gate director.

He reached for it, and it was a token for customs clearance at night.

The principal was relieved. Although he was still stunned, he turned his head and told him, "Open the gate!"

Lux stepped forward and slowly opened the heavy gate that had just been closed.

Cui Wei stared coldly at the gap in the gate, and asked, "Which direction did you go?"

The gatekeeper of the city gate froze for a while before he responded that he should ask his boss.

Hesitantly said: "It is the official way to go, maybe it is to go to the Perak camp."

"Perak camp? Does he dare?" Cui Wei sneered.

A lightning flashed across the sky, and the bright light seemed to tear the entire dark sky.

In the light that suddenly came, the beautiful smile carried a heartfelt **** taste.

***

Ren Jinglei did not walk towards the Perak camp. After half a hour of galloping on the official road, he turned on a small road with dense forests on both sides. Through the forest, the shadows of the villages on both sides could be dimly seen.

Although it's already sunset, many hard-working farmers and hunters, just after finishing their day's work, are walking along the trail together, talking casually.

Some peasant women are cooking, and white smoke is rising from every household.

In this kind atmosphere, Ren Jinglei slowed down.

The sky was dim, and his figure seemed extremely lonely in the dark night.

Lightning flashed across the sky, followed by heavy rain.

Dou Da's raindrops hit the yellow earth. Ren Jinglei did not escape, and continued to guide the horse to walk on the road. Before long, he was soaked from head to toe.

After a short walk, a dark shadow appeared in front of him.

It seems to be a mountain temple, most of which is a nearby village or sacrifice place. I don't know if anyone cleaned it, and the entire temple is ruined by years of disrepair.

Ren Jinglei got off the horse and led Mu Xue into the temple.

The four walls of the temple are still intact, but the inside is already broken. It must have been deserted for a long time, and even the shrine statues have become fragments and scattered on the platform.

In the center of the temple there are several wreckages of the fire, and it may look like it's been a while. Presumably it was the travelers who passed here before leaving traces in the temple.

Ren Jinglei let go of Muxue's reins and let it search for food from the weeds in the yard.

I chose a clean place on the high platform and sat down.

Since leaving Beijing, he has been lazy for a whole person, which is a feeling of irresistibility.

Maybe subconsciously, he didn't want to leave here.

What if General Pei is gone?

He tried his best to suppress himself, not to think about these thoughts, but deep in his heart, the thoughts still appeared uncontrollably.

He shouldn't walk here, he should immediately ride on Muxue and run all the way to the south. As long as he reaches the Sishui River and transfers to a small boat there, he only needs to escape into a dense river channel like a spider web in the southern water system. No trace left.

No matter what tracking master, he can no longer find his trace.

However, he did not want to move, perhaps because the wind and rain outside were too rapid, or because the night sky was too strong. At this moment, he didn't even want to move a finger.

He was holding his knees, sitting on a high platform, closing his eyes, listening to the noise of the rain in his ears, unconsciously, as if he had fallen asleep.

In his dream, he seemed to be back in his childhood, a time he could never forget.
