The sixth day of the second month

When the others heard his laughter, they were infected and couldn't help but follow him involuntarily.

Xie Yuan glanced at them, curled the corners of his lips, threw the cloth towel in his hand to Xiao Erdan, turned around and left the martial arts training ground to take a shower.

She doesn't care about other people's gossip now, she only cares when she can go back to the barracks and do some serious business.

Could it be that you will be exhausted in such a waiting life?

...

...

On the sixth day of the second month, around the mountain city.

The city of Huanshan is a small town backed by the mountains.

There is only one city gate, with a steep mountain backed by. Except for those who go up the mountain to collect herbs, few people can climb up the mountain.

Therefore, people who come and go from north to south have to enter and exit from that city gate.

Chen Liuzhen sat in an inn nearest the city gate, leaning against the window drinking hot tea. A small crack was opened in the window, and you could see pedestrians entering and exiting the city gate.

There was a stove next to the table, and the flames were burning strongly in the stove, licking the teapot above, and the heat was steaming.

A gust of cold wind floated in through the cracks in the window, and the leaves of the window swayed, causing a lot of heat in the room to dissipate.

Chen Liuzhen closed his eyes, tilted his head and endured it. In the end, he couldn't help it and coughed twice again with a "cough cough".

Liu Qinbing really spoke out and said worriedly:

"You'd better stay in there, I'll show you if someone is coming."

Chen Liuzhen's cough has improved a lot, but occasionally he can't help but cough twice, as if it's a habit because it's too long and it's hard to control it.

So he consciously endured it, trying to correct this problem so as not to listen to Brother Liu's nagging.

He moved the veil covering his mouth away, his eyes still looked out through the crack in the window, but sighed and said:

"A Yuan probably won't come. She is a diligent and anxious person. If she wants to come, she will definitely come in advance. It's impossible to delay it until now... This day is almost over."

While Liu Qinbing took down the boiling teapot and added hot water to him, he said angrily:

"You know you're still waiting, close the window and rest. How many more times do you have this disease? Will you still have a life?"

Chen Liuzhen turned his head and looked at him, smiling sweetly, and the dimples on his face were revealed, saying:

"I'm young, how could I die so easily?"

"Ha." Liu Qinbing did not give him any face and mocked, "Young people are different from young people. If you say Xie Yuan is sick and can't die, I believe you...hehe..."

Chen Liuzhen couldn't laugh anymore, and pursed his lips awkwardly, then moved his eyes outside the window, saying unwillingly:

"Why didn't A Yuan come?"

Liu's personal army packed up and sat opposite Chen Liuzhen, asking curiously: "Then why would she come?"

"I sent my chess piece to the hands of the Emperor of Song. There is no reason why he doesn't use it. Whether it is a regular use, a reverse use, or a discarding it, he should have some reaction." Chen Liuzhen murmured.

Liu Qinbing looked at Chen Liuzhen blankly, but he didn't respond for a long time. After a while, he said:

"I don't understand, say something I can understand."

The two of them have been in Huanshan City for two days, and today is the second day.

The days that have always been waiting for others are the most difficult. It is not convenient for two people to walk around, so they just stay in the house and stare at the city gate. It is so boring and boring.

Chen Liuzhen heard it, and put his hands on the table helplessly, and asked in a gentle voice:

"Then you change the question."

Liu Qinbing thought for a while and asked, "Why is it the sixth day of every month?"

Chen Liuzhen smiled when he heard this, and there was a little cunning joy in his smile, and he said, "You forgot that A Yuan's birthday is on the sixth day of the lunar month. If she could come to see me every month Back, on her birthday, I would also prepare some things to make her happy.”

Liu Qinbing showed a look of contempt and looked back, leaned back and said:

"Oh... I thought you were doing it for business, but it was just for private meetings? Then isn't this strategy used a bit big?"

"Oh~" Chen Liuzhen leaned his head and said seriously, "That's all, both public and private matters will not be delayed."

As he said that, he turned his gaze outside the window.

Although he knew that A Yuan would probably not appear, he still couldn't help but expect an unexpected result.

Liu's personal soldier looked at Chen Liuzhen's appearance and laughed at him, saying, "Do you think I believe it? You said at that time that you did so much to pave the way for her to come to the Northern Wei Dynasty to be a general."

He paused, pointed to Chen Liuzhen's nose and said, "You are so confident. You are playing so colorful. Don't turn around and let your own intestines surround yourself with death."

Chen Liuzhen didn't look at him, and comforted him perfunctorily and said, "It's all a matter of by chance, a matter of by chance..."

Liu Qinbing gave him a blank look, knowing that he could not interfere with these things or persuade them.

He also turned his eyes to the window, but from this perspective, he could only see a piece of city wall.

He took a sip of tea and asked:

"I don't remember you've been to Huanshan City. How did you know that there is only one city gate here, and there is also such an inn that allows you to see people?"

Chen Liuzhen held the tea bowl in his hand and said, "It sounds like that. In the last battle between the north and the south, one of the battlefields was Huanshan City. At that time, we were in Prince Muhe's camp, and those people had mentioned the terrain here. .

Another thing is that in order to avoid assassination, we stayed in the county magistrate’s mansion for two days. Didn’t we listen to him talk about what he saw and heard from everywhere and what he saw and what he was doing?

He once told about his experience, and witnessed a bandit riot at the city gate in this inn."

When Liu Qinbing heard this, he raised his eyes and thought for a while before he slapped his forehead clearly and said:

"Yes, yes... I remember you, it seems that I said that... I only remember that he said those robbers were from two hills in front of Huanshan City, and one of them was called Mei's bandits."

"Bird Star Eyebrow." Chen Liuzhen said with a verse as he curled the corner of his lips.

"Oh yes yes... This name is so fucking strange. Good guy, remember it so clearly that you can use it." Liu Qinbing couldn't help but give Chen Liuzhen a thumbs up.

"As the saying goes, read thousands of books and travel thousands of miles. What can the flowers and plants on the road look good? The important thing is to listen to the locals chat and gain more knowledge. Confucius said: If three people walk, there must be my teacher. …”

Chen Liuzhen said this and suddenly stopped talking, his voice suddenly stopped.

Liu's personal soldier thought he had seen something, so he quickly stood up and looked out according to his eyes, asking, "What's wrong?!"

Chen Liuzhen sighed in disappointment, his eyebrows and eyes drooped, and he said, "It's nothing, I'm going to close the city gate. A Yuan really won't come."
