Zhan Beihan calmly withdrew his gaze and said coldly: "How long will it take to delay if you haven't mounted yet?"
Xiao Lingyue was stunned for a moment.
Before she could react, Zhan Beihan had already turned the horse's head and urged it forward.
The imperial guard on the side hurriedly handed over the reins: "Miss Shen, your horse."
Xiao Lingyue looked at Zhan Beihan's back inexplicably and complained: "What's wrong with him? Is it me who delayed it or him?"
Forbidden Army: "..." Dare not speak.
Although Xiao Lingyue thought Zhan Beihan's attitude was strange, looking at the sky, it was indeed getting late.
It's still a long way from the fork in the official road to the foot of Hulang Mountain. Riding a horse requires less effort than doing light work. Including the time to enter the mountain, we really can't delay it any more.
Xiao Lingyue took the reins, got on the horse, and followed Zhan Beihan forward.
The Imperial Guards on both sides of the imperial team separated a lane, allowing the horses of the two men to cross.
The sky is getting darker and the temperature is gradually dropping.
The carriages behind them all closed their windows, and no one noticed that two horses, one black and one white, quietly left the team and quickly disappeared into the mountains and forests along another fork in the road.
"drive!"
The horses' hooves clattered like rapid raindrops.
Two horses, one black and one white, ran quickly along the mountain road, with pieces of dust rising under their hooves.
Zhan Beihan understood the terrain in advance and led the way on a black horse. Xiao Lingyue just followed him.
About twenty minutes later, Zhan Beihan lightly held the reins and slowed down his horse.
Seeing this, Xiao Lingyue also slowed down, walked up to him on horseback, and looked around: "Are we almost there?"
"In front, follow me." Zhan Beihan whispered, then turned his horse around and walked in along a patch of grass beside the road.
Xiao Lingyue raised her eyebrows and followed suit.
At this time, the sky has darkened, and everything is gray. The grass, shrubs and distant woods interweave shadows. Without firelight, it is difficult for people with slightly impaired vision to see clearly.
Zhan Beihan and Xiao Lingyue were both martial arts practitioners, and their night vision abilities were better than ordinary people's, and they could still see clearly at this time.
The grass is lush and deep, as tall as a person.
Two horses walked into it, half of their bodies were submerged in weeds. As they walked forward, grass blades scraped against their legs.
Xiao Lingyue looked at the deep weeds and couldn't help but click her tongue: "Fortunately, I didn't wear a skirt..."
If you were wearing a skirt through such deep weeds, it would be difficult to move even an inch.
Within a few minutes, the two of them rode through the grass and arrived at the foot of a cliff.
The cliff is not too high, but very steep. The rocks are bare and rugged, and there are a few crooked pine trees growing on the cliff.
"We're here." Zhan Beihan turned over and dismounted.
Xiao Lingyue looked at the cliff in front of her in astonishment. She looked around and saw that there was no way up the mountain at all.
The corner of her mouth twitched slightly: "You wouldn't have told me that we had to climb up from this cliff, right?"
"Yes!" Zhan Beihan said.
"Is there no other way into the mountain?" Xiao Lingyue looked up at the cliff, a little reluctantly.
It's not that you can't climb it, but... who wants to climb a mountain at night?
Even if you have Qinggong, you will still be tired. Popular ""
