An Xiangyuan quickly grabbed him, "Why did you put the stone on your head?"

Ta An jumped away and stared at her vigilantly: "This is my home, don't try to steal my home!"

An Xiangyuan was stunned for a moment, then put down his hands blankly.

Ta An quickly turned his attention away from her, calling himself a little turtle everywhere.

"Hey, little bug, where is your home?"

"This is my home, I can take it with me, isn't it powerful?"

Butler Ji patted her reassuringly, "The young master has often been like this recently, General An, please don't mind."

An Xiangyuan shook his head.

How could she mind? It's too late for her to feel distressed.

Only Gu Lanyi silently looked at the frisky Da An, with a flash of envy in his eyes.

When she spoke, there was fear hidden in her tone that others could not understand.

"Butler Jian, have you seen my husband?"

Butler Jian was surprised, and asked back: "Wen Xiaolang-jun is not with you?"

Gu Lanyi's heart was empty and she fell silent.

If Wen Ziyu didn't flee back to Shuofang City with the army, where would he go?

It stands to reason that no news at this time is the best news, but she still holds it in her heart and dare not let it go.

At least not yet bad news.

She consoled herself.

The four of them walked from the surrounding forests all the way to the deep mountains, and finally came to a shady mountain stream.

More than [-] people crowded on this small flat ground, and they didn't even dare to light a fire to repel mosquitoes.

"General!"

"General?"

After seeing Gu Lanyi, the soldiers were all very pleasantly surprised.

Gu Lanyi hurriedly stopped them.

"Keep your voice down."

The soldiers hurriedly lowered their volume and said in a low voice, "General, it's great that you're fine."

Gu Lanyi glanced over every soldier, confirming that everyone seemed to be in good condition.

"Sorry to make everyone suffer."

It was very simple words, but it made the eyes of this group of veteran soldiers who had just climbed out of the mountain of corpses and blood reddened.

"It's not the general's fault."

"The general doesn't need to apologize, there is a grievance and a debt, we can't let go of Zhao Yi and Bei Man, the bastards."

"Yes! Let Zhao Yi and the northern barbarians pay for their lives!"

Seeing that the soldiers' emotions began to soar, Gu Lanyi hurriedly spoke out.

"Hi everyone, I'm here to assure everyone that none of the sisters' grievances can escape. But!"

She made a gesture, which represented waiting for orders in the Mobei Army.

"Not now. I can't disregard everyone's lives. I will not forget about revenge. Please believe me."

The soldiers looked at each other until a voice sounded first.

"I trust the general!"

After the others reacted, they immediately expressed their determination: "We believe in the general!"

Gu Lanyi looked at the first person who spoke in surprise, and unexpectedly saw a familiar face.

"Jiang Cai?"

Jiang Cai, who was sitting on a stone by the stream with a disheveled face, scratched the back of his head embarrassingly.

"General, it's me."

Gu Lanyi looked at her and pursed her lips in relief.

His gaze was firm again, "Today everyone rests first, and tomorrow morning, we will go to Zhoucheng."

An Xiangyuan turned his head: "Zhou Cheng?"

She didn't understand why she was going to Zhoucheng.

Like Shuofang City, Zhou City is also a city in the northern border.

It's just that although it is not far from Shuofang City, it does not belong to the Shuofang Department in terms of jurisdiction, nor is it garrisoned by the Mobei Army.

Instead, it belongs to the Beiliang Department and is under the jurisdiction of the Beiliang Army.

"Zhou City is adjacent to Shuofang City. The Beiliang Army never sent troops to station in order to save trouble. Therefore, Zhou City has always been protected by the Mobei Army, and it has been barely stable for several years."

An Xiangyuan understood.

"Do you want to settle down in Zhoucheng?"

Gu Lanyi nodded.

Butler Ji hesitated and said, "But the city lord of Zhou City has always been rigid...you don't know, since the defeat three days ago, Zhao Yi has pushed all the responsibilities to you..."

After An Xiangyuan pondered for a while with his dull brain what the Butler Jian meant, he couldn't help it anymore.

"Damn it, Zhao Yi's grandson is too shameless!"

Gu Lanyi thought it was right, but she couldn't open her mouth.

But what the housekeeper was worried about was not a big deal.

She said, "Don't worry about it, we have Jiangcai after all."

An Xiangyuan was puzzled: "Jiang Cai?"

Jiang Cai on the side heard that he was mentioned by the two generals, and quickly responded.

"I'm here!"

Gu Lanyi nodded, "You know that the city lord of Zhoucheng is strictly controlled by her husband. Unfortunately, Jiang Cai happens to be her husband's niece."

With this relationship and the Mobei Army's care for Zhou Cheng over the years, it is very likely that the Lord Zhou will not refuse.

An Xiangyuan breathed a sigh of relief.

Late at night, when the soldiers were taking a nap by the stream, An Xiangyuan patted the mosquitoes irritably.

Suddenly Gu Lanyi stood up lightly and walked outside.

She propped herself up and said in a breathy voice, "General?"

Gu Lanyi turned her head, "I'm going out for a walk."

An Xiangyuan wanted to stop her, not to mention whether there would be wild animals outside, or the northern barbarian soldiers might find out, which is also very dangerous.

After all, Gu Lanyi was injured.

But her legs and feet are inconvenient, and Gu Lanyi has made up her mind.

In the forest at night, the noises of grasshoppers and cicadas come and go, and the mosquitoes are not too disturbing.

Gu Lanyi walked aimlessly in the forest, looking around.

【Host? 】

Gu Lanyi hummed.

[Wen Ziyu is not around here. 】

The system has a God's perspective, so it can quickly observe the surrounding situation.

Gu Lanyi was not surprised that it could guess that she was looking for someone.

This forest happened to be on the east side of Shuofang City. If Wen Ziyu escaped from the barracks and did not enter the city, this forest would be the best place to go.

Gu Lanyi walked farther and farther, until she could already see the bright fire on Shuofang City through the gaps in the trees, when the system suddenly made a sound.

[Host, stop quickly, don't step on it, there is something under your feet! 】

Gu Lanyi paused, her right foot was suspended in the air, and then retracted.

What is it?

There is no sound from the system.

Gu Lanyi was puzzled, squatted down, and squinted his eyes to examine the dirt carefully.

There is no need to look for it at all, the red beads buried shallowly in the soil are particularly conspicuous, and the fiery red color pierces Gu Lanyi's eyes in an instant.

"This is……"

Gu Lanyi stretched out her hand to pinch the beads out from the soil, and wiped them with her sleeve.

Coral beads the size of a little finger, red in color, warm to the touch.

Gu Lanyi's throat was dry, and she stared at Zhuzhu without blinking.

"Is it the one that Xiao Yubu swung up and down?"

【Yes. 】

The original hesitation disappeared instantly under the affirmation of the system, and Gu Lanyi's chest rose and fell.

This is a good thing, it means that Xiao Yu really escaped.

That night Gu Lanyi stayed up all night and walked in the forest all night, but there was no other clue.

The only possibility is that within three days, Wen Ziyu had already left the forest.

But where will he go?

Gu Lanyi couldn't think of any place other than the capital.

The faint lonely moon silently illuminated this figure who was looking for in the mountains and forests with little hope, just like the boy who was flustered under the cold moonlight three days ago.

The next day, Gu Lanyi returned to the stream at dawn.

An Xiangyuan looked at her worriedly, "The general hasn't slept all night?"

Gu Lanyi hummed, "It's nothing, I'm not sleepy."

How dare she sleep if the person hasn't been found yet.

"Okay, everyone, wash your face in the stream to sober up, let's go to Zhoucheng."

The soldiers washed their faces bustlingly, and those who got up early to pick the fruit also returned, and each of them divided a few to barely eat.

After a few mouthfuls of food, everyone was about to set off.

A man's voice suddenly came from behind the forest, "General."
