After Yu Zhi came out of Qiu Jinfeng's place, he went directly to the West City Gate. Besides the marriage, he also had one more important thing on his mind.

It was already sunset, and the setting sun was hanging on the city wall and was about to set. In a short while, the city gates all over Kyoto would be closed, and smoke would rise from every house.

Yu Zhi thought that Lao Huang was still in Kyoto. He couldn't make up his mind and came to the West City Gate with the mentality of taking a gamble. Last time he was thrown by Lao Huang at the door of the West City Gate. If Lao Huang came in and out, he would probably do the same.

Pass through the West Gate.

It happened that the soldier on duty today was Wang Dafu. Yu Zhi was lucky enough to know this person, so he got a chair and sat under the west city gate. Seeing the carriages and horses coming and going, he called people to search. After several times, Wang Dafu thought that this was the case.

Are you dealing with some big case?

"My lord, the door is about to close, are you still waiting here?" Wang Dafu asked. He didn't know who this young man was, but when he saw Qiu Ruoruo obeying his words last time, Wang Dafu concluded that this young man was also someone with status.

He is a character. Therefore, his attitude is extremely respectful.

Yu Zhi stretched his neck and looked into the distance, muttering in his mouth: "Is it possible that he really ran away?" Seeing Lao Huang's figure in the Li Mansion, Yu Zhi thought of the young lady in the mountains again.

For some reason, Yu Zhi had never seen the other party before, but in his heart he wanted to see that young lady again.

"You mind your own business, I'll sit down for a while." Yu Zhi said lightly. He didn't know how to describe this matter to Wang Dafu.

Wang Dafu could only step aside. These young men always had strange tempers. In Wang Dafu's eyes, Yu Zhi was considered normal.

Suddenly, Yu Zhi saw a familiar carriage. "Quickly, stop it for me."

Hearing Yu Zhi's voice, Wang Dafu immediately ordered the soldiers guarding the city to stop the carriage. He thought to himself, is this the person he wants to arrest?

Yu Zhi stepped forward, pretending to be a second-generation playboy from a local official in Kyoto, walked out from behind the soldier, and said viciously: "Old Huang, long time no see. Hehe."

When Lao Huang saw Yu Zhi, he loosened the reins in his hands, thinking that he was an old friend. However, the last "hehe" made Lao Huang feel bad.

"It turns out it's you, kid. Why did you stop me?" Lao Huang scolded.

Yu Zhi waved his hand, dismissed the soldiers, climbed into Lao Huang's carriage and said, "Miss saved my life last time, and I have been thinking about repaying her. I didn't expect to meet you here again today. Fate is fate."

Lao Huang usually looked very wretched, but now he looked at Yu Zhi with a look full of contempt, and said in a sinister tone: "You must have been waiting here all afternoon. Just to wait for me, an old man?"

"Hehehe." Yu Zhi smiled and did not answer. He took the reins from Lao Huang's hand and moved his buttocks to make himself more comfortable on the carriage. "Come on, take me to see your young lady.

."

Lao Huang glanced at the dozen or so soldiers guarding the city in front of him, as well as a soldier in armor standing beside Yu Zhi, thinking that if he didn't agree today, he might not be able to leave.

Yu Zhi stretched out a hand and put it on Lao Huang's shoulder, his eyes showing that he was in control.

"Out of the city gate, there is the Wuming Mountain ten miles southwest." Lao Huang said as if he was admitting defeat.

Yu Zhi said to Wang Dafu: "Please tell Ruoruo for me that I have something to do outside the city. I will be back after I finish it, so don't worry her."

After saying that, Yu Zhi drove the carriage towards the afterglow of the setting sun and rushed towards the countless mountains outside the city.

The road outside Kyoto is very wide, and for a few miles there are often vehicles and horses walking on it, so the rugged road has been smoothed out and becomes relatively flat. After a little further distance, you will reach the desolate suburbs and you will find a land full of swamps.

At this time, the sun sets and the moon rises, the night sky is dotted with stars, and the moonlight illuminated by the bright moon illuminates the road without the need for more lights. As we go further and further away, the sounds of some animals are heard in the dense forests on the outskirts, and there are

The rustling sound could be the rubbing of leaves or the soft footsteps of animals.

The lights in the city were bustling, and the night outside the city was like ink. For a moment, Yu Zhi felt that the city and the outside were like two worlds.

"Hurry up, hurry up, when will you arrive?" Lao Huang poured the wine from the wine gourd, and his red cheeks could be seen in the moonlight.

As he said this, Lao Huang was about to grab the reins from Yu Zhi's hand. How could Yu Zhi dare to let go and hold on tightly? He knew how thrilling it was for Lao Huang to drive, and now when he was drunk, he was afraid that the two of them would be destroyed together with the carriage.

People die.

"Slow down, slow down, safety first, safety first." Yu Zhi shouted. He is a very crisis-conscious person.

The scenery on both sides was retreating rapidly, and the speed of the car was no longer slow, but after a long time, the familiar bamboo forest was still not seen.

Lao Huang drank the last drop of wine in the wine gourd and muttered: "Why did you finish it?" The drunken state made Yu Zhi even more afraid to put the reins in Lao Huang's hands.

Lao Huang turned his head and looked at Yu Zhi, who was driving seriously. He grinned, revealing a row of neat and yellowed teeth. The malicious smile made Yu Zhi feel scared in his heart.

"Boy, do you want to take advantage of my young lady?" Lao Huang asked with a smile.

Yu Zhi was confused and didn't know how to answer, so he said: "Of course not. I've never even met each other, so why did I turn into a prodigal who wants to take advantage of others? I can't say that the young lady didn't show up because of her facial imperfections.

Dare to meet people. It's just that you saved my life, I'm not an ungrateful person."

Lao Huang laughed and scolded: "My young lady is as beautiful as a fairy. Don't regret what you said."

"Regret, how could I regret it?" Yu Zhi replied distractedly. "By the way, why haven't you arrived after so long?"

Old Huang smiled again, as if his trick had succeeded, and kicked Yu Zhi, and saw a figure flying towards the snow that had not yet melted.

"Damn, this old guy." Yu Zhifei was in the air, but before he landed, he was already spouting out a lot of curse words.

In Yu Zhi's eyes was the shadow of the carriage quickly leaving, and in his ears was Old Huang's proud laughter.

Bang!

The soft snow layer provided a buffer for Yu Zhi, but it still made Yu Zhi's back hurt. The melted snow water quickly seeped into Yu Zhi's back through his thin clothes, and the cold feeling spread throughout Yu Zhi's body instantly.

"Old scoundrel, what an old scoundrel." Yu Zhi cursed repeatedly. He stood up, brushed off some snow on his body, and looked at the direction in which the carriage was leaving.

The outside of Kyoto is very vast and flat. You can see the scenery for miles away at a glance, and you can distinguish it as long as there is a person walking. However, the place where Yu Zhi was left was at the foot of the mountain, and there were countless mountains in front of him.

There is a huge mountain with a narrow road winding from it.

"I should have thought that this old guy knocked me unconscious and threw me at the city gate last time because he didn't want me to find the way. How could he take me back today? It was a mistake!" Yu Zhi was annoyed.

Yu Zhi turned around and looked at the lights of Kyoto in the distance. It would take an hour or two to walk back from here. He sighed and turned around to follow the ruts and walk into the mountains.

After Lao Huang left Yu Zhi behind, he drove the carriage into the forest while waving a black riding crop. He narrowed his eyes and looked confused, which made people worry.

"Hey, the young man still wants to fight with me. It's a pity." Lao Huang hummed those famous songs in Kyoto and galloped on the bad mountain road. There seemed to be only two living creatures, one person and one horse, in the deep mountain forest.

.

Deep in the bamboo forest, the girl angrily scolded Lao Huang. The middle-aged little old man seemed to be drunk, listening blankly and no longer making excuses.

A candle was lit in a bamboo house, and the candlelight reflected the figure of a slender woman. Li Wantong looked out of the window and could just see the scene of the little girl scolding the old servant. She did not stop him, and the old man and the young man came.

At night, there is more warmth and excitement in the cold and silent bamboo forest.

After a long time, the girl finally got tired and still looked angry. "Next time you dare to drink and cause trouble, I will punish you on behalf of the lady."

Li Wantong listened to the girl's approaching footsteps and said without looking back: "Have you calmed down?"

The girl shook her head, put her hands on Li Wantong's shoulders, kneaded it a few times, and began to arrange Li Wantong's hair. "Miss, this old Huang was obviously greedy for alcohol, so he missed the time. Now he is looking for it for himself.

What a good excuse, but really abominable.”

Li Wantong put down the book, looked at the unhappy girl in the mirror, and said with a smile: "What excuse did he make today to make you so angry?"

On weekdays, Lao Huang was sloppy in his work, and occasionally missed time but could not escape the girl's scolding. But today, Lao Huang seemed to have found an excuse that made the girl even more annoyed.

"Old Huang smelled of alcohol. He had clearly drunk a lot, and his wine gourd was empty. But he said he met Yu Zhi at the gate of the city. He finally got rid of him, so he came back late. Miss, what are you talking about?

Ridiculous or not?”

Li Wantong looked at Lao Huang who was drunk in the yard, thinking about the face of Yu Zhi and the disturbing voice in the past few days. "Maybe it really is that... Yu Zhi.

"

Li Wantong regretted what he said as soon as he said this, for fear that the girl would think that he paid too much attention to this young man. In fact, it was just that Li Wantong had a guilty conscience.

The girl didn't seem to notice this, and then said: "Miss, you are so stupid. As soon as I saw that guy Yu Zhi, I knew he was a slippery person. His injuries have obviously been healed, but he still wants to stay. Such people

How could he be waiting at the gate of the city, waiting for Lao Huang? The probability is too small. I think Lao Huang used up his previous excuse and thought of a new one today. Unfortunately, he met the smart me. "

Li Wantong smiled softly, and his cold face bloomed like a snow lotus. "You should be smarter. Old Huang can't escape your eyes despite all the changes."

"Of course, of course." The girl was quite proud and said with a smile, "Otherwise, how could I spot this little cunning Yu Zhi?"

Li Wantong smiled again, "You help Lao Huang into the house, he will be frozen at night here."

It was really cold in the bamboo forest at night. Li Wantong lay on the bed and couldn't fall asleep for a long time. Normally, she would have already fallen asleep. But now her mind was filled with the boy who was sitting there waiting for something to happen.
