Just as he followed up, Zhong Qingye noticed something was wrong. Although Qi Mo was neatly dressed and had all his armor and weapons on him, he obviously did not go in the direction where the soldiers gathered, but instead went to the east where there were sparse people.【】
As mentioned before, Qi Mo's army was stationed close to the river, and adjacent to it was the branch of the Qing River, the largest river in the world. The direction Qi Mo was walking happened to be towards the source of the branch river. According to
Zhong Qingye's geographical understanding showed that that direction was extremely deserted, with almost no other eye-catching environment except for a small waterfall a few miles away.
Could it be that Qi Mo’s destination is the waterfall?
But in the middle of the night, why did he go to the waterfall without sleeping well?
The more Zhong Qingye thought about it, the more curious he became, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong, so he simply hid his figure and followed Qi Mo quietly.
Tracking Qi Mo is not an easy task. The guy's alertness is almost as high as Zhong Qingye's. He will be discovered if he doesn't pay attention. Zhong Qingye is almost on alert.
Concentrating on being cautious, he extended the distance to the maximum limit, and followed Qi Mo cautiously.
It was because he was so focused that Zhong Qingye didn't even know how far he had walked, but the sound of the waterfall gradually became clearer in his ears. Winter is drier, and the water flow of the waterfall also slows down, coupled with the snow cover
, can hear the sound of running water, which proves that they are very close to the waterfall.
Suddenly, Qi Mo, who was not far ahead, stopped.
Zhong Qingye immediately made an emergency stop and quickly lowered her head to hide in a bush covered with snow. Although she didn't know why she was as nervous as a thief at this time, she soon found out why she was doing it.
Perfect reason.
Because, a third person's breath broke into her eardrums.
Qi Mo looked around at the spot and said in a cold voice: "I'm already here, but you don't dare to show up?"
"Haha..." The third man chuckled softly, and then a bush twenty meters away from Zhong Qingye shook, and a man walked out of it.
Zhong Qingye secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Qi Mo's sudden stop was not because he found her, but because he had arrived at his destination. So, did he come here in the middle of the night just because he had an appointment with someone?
?
Who is this person? What is the purpose of meeting Qi Mo here?
Zhong Qingye is not a very curious person, but she feels that all her curiosity has been aroused at this moment.
The moon in winter is generally light, and the light is dim and not bright at all, but it is better than the white snow reflecting the light, and everything you look at is clear.
The man who came out of the bush was still a black shadow at first, but gradually it became clearer. His figure was thin and tall, and he didn't feel thin. Instead, he had a strange strength and beauty. On his slightly bluish robe, golden threads were faintly visible.
visible.
The smooth and white face exudes angular elegance; the deep black eyes have a faint light like the moonlight; the thick eyebrows, high nose, and beautiful lip shape all exude nobility and elegance.
The lips were a little white, and they were pursed gently, forming an arc that looked like a smile but not a smile.
There is a thick circle of long black hair on the collar of his clothes, which seems to be made of the lanugo hair of some animal. It is dense and warm surrounding his face. Every move is full of the dignity and calmness of an emperor.
It's Qi Mu!
Zhong Qingye's eyes widened, looking at the man's face as if he couldn't believe it. He never expected that the person who met Qi Mo here would actually be Qi Mu!
What do they want to do? After fighting for so many years, do they suddenly want to have an intimate night talk between brothers?
Zhong Qingye almost laughed at her sudden thought. She subconsciously reached out and covered her mouth to prevent herself from making any sound. At the same moment, she suddenly discovered that there was a fourth person breathing around her!
Is there anyone else here?!
Three o'clock in the morning is the coldest and quietest time of the day. Determining the source of breath is one of Zhong Qingye's specialties. Almost as soon as she noticed it, she headed towards the place where the breath came from, but she only found a clump of black paint.
It's not clear who is hiding in the dark woods.
But that dark forest was where Qi Mu came out from in the beginning. Could it be that the person hiding in it was from Qi Mu's side? What did he want to do? A sneak attack? Only one person?
The more Zhong Qingye thought about it, the more incredible it became, but suddenly she felt that she had never guessed Qi Mu's thoughts from beginning to end.
No matter what, even if they were brought by Qi Mu, if the two of them joined forces to deal with Qi Mo, Qi Mo might not be able to cope with it. Otherwise, wouldn't she be there?
Thinking of this, Zhong Qingye simply put down her thoughts and focused on Qi Mu and Qi Mo. Of course, she did not forget to lower her breathing.
"You are very punctual and very bold. Aren't you afraid that I will send someone to ambush you here?" Qi Mu greeted him with a gun and a stick as soon as he opened his mouth. The expression on his face remained unchanged as he walked slowly to Qi Mo.
Stand still half a meter forward.
Not to be outdone, Qi Mo looked at him, wearing silver-white armor, which shone coldly under the snowy light. "I'll give you the same question. You are also very bold. This is my place after all. You are not afraid that I will send someone to ambush you."
?”
Hearing Qi Mo's words, Qi Mu actually laughed strangely, shook his head and said, "It's not necessary, is it?"
Qi Mo said nothing.
"My current army only has less than 70,000 troops. You are almost four times as strong as me. With such a big gap, you can level my camp with just a wave of your hand. Why do you need to use such a small trick to ambush me?
"Qi Mu tilted his head slightly, and his smile was particularly weak. "Am I right, third brother?"
"Just think you are right. I don't have the need or time to talk nonsense with you. Just tell me what your purpose is." Qi Mo didn't take Qi Mu's provocation seriously at all. His cold face was almost invulnerable.
.
Qi Mu still chuckled. "Of course you don't have time to talk nonsense with me. Zhong Qingye is in your camp now, how can you waste time on me?"
Qi Mo's tone suddenly turned cold. "What exactly do you want to do?"
Qi Mu did not answer, but instead walked sideways from Qi Mo, stood on the edge of the waterfall, stretched lazily, and said in a calm tone: "It's finally coming to an end! ... This game is really boring.
Very.”
"Let me ask you, what exactly do you want to do?!" Qi Mo took a step forward, his eyes narrowed slightly, and his tone was sinister and terrifying.
Qi Mu turned around and suddenly grinned, with a very happy expression on his face. "Why don't you go back to your camp? In this case, you don't need to ask me."
Before he finished speaking, Qi Mo and Zhong Qingye, who were hiding in the dark, turned around almost at the same time. They were surprised by the red light that suddenly lit up in the sky in the distance. At that level of light, one would have known that it was caused by a serious fire.
of.
At this time, Zhong Qingye suddenly understood why Qi Mu asked Qi Mo to come to the waterfall. Although the sound of the waterfall in winter is quieter, it is still a bit ear-piercing if you stand very close, and it vaguely blocks the sound coming from the camp door.
The noise was so far away that even Zhong Qingye didn't notice it at the first time.
Qi Mo also quickly understood, his pupils narrowed, and he stared at Qi Mu closely. "Did you deliberately plan the defection of the soldiers during the day? In order to allow those soldiers to leave the camp legitimately, and then go around to my camp from the other direction.
Behind the military camp, with this brightness of fire, did you send someone to light my military rations?!"
"Papa..." Qi Mu stretched out his hand and patted it twice in mid-air, and said with some emotion: "Third brother, actually my father is right, among all the brothers, you are the only one with the highest talent... What a pity...
…”
He shook his head slightly. Qi Mo's face turned pale all of a sudden, and his hands hanging by his sides were almost filled with water.
If Zhong Qingye had no knowledge of Qi Mo's past, she would have been confused when she heard Qi Mu's words. But now, she clearly understands what Qi Mu means by "a pity", but whether he really feels it is a pity or just simply
Qi Mo would definitely not feel comfortable hearing such words.
This Qi Mu...he really doesn't show any mercy when he speaks!
"Do you think that by inviting me here, you can sneak attack on my military camp?" Qi Mo suddenly smiled sarcastically, and raised his eyebrows with arrogance. "Qi Mu, you are too small, my army
It’s not just paper.”
"Really?" Qi Mu's expression did not change at all, and he asked with a smile: "What about Zhong Qingye? She is in your military camp, do you trust her?"
"Why are you worried?" Qi Mo narrowed his eyes and asked, proudly: "How can my woman be so weak?!"
Suddenly, Zhong Qingye's face suddenly turned red. This was not the first day she heard Qi Mo declare his ownership in this tone, but it had never warmed her heart like it did today.
Qi Mu suddenly stopped talking and silently turned his head to the side of the slowly flowing waterfall.
The wind has picked up, and the scenery next to the cliff is freezing and biting. Some white snowflakes are drifting down from the sky. The wind is howling and the snowflakes are dancing. Two tall and tall men are talking silently. The black is elegant and the white is cold.
One is aloof and handsome, with bright features, and the other is charming and charming.
Zhong Qingye suddenly understood that such two men were destined not to coexist in the world. There would never be room for two tigers in the same mountain. How could there be beauty when there was beauty!
After a long time, Qi Mu's voice slowly sounded, saying something completely unrelated. It was a very light and shallow sentence, and when it was blown by the wind, it drifted away without a place to rest.
"Lian'er... misses you very much. When you are free in the future... go to her."
