Xue Pan will return to Chang'an in a few days. Although she didn't say it, Xiao Han could still feel the special sadness floating in the air when parting.
Whenever he sees Xue Pan showing reluctance, Xiao Han's heart will feel a little painful!
He really wanted to keep Xue Pan and let the two of them stay and fly together here! But every time the words came to his lips, he could only swallow them silently.
This is the Tang Dynasty, not future generations after all!
A woman who has not yet left the court can cross thousands of mountains and rivers to see her lover. This is Xue Pan's greatest courage!
Xiao Han can't and doesn't dare! Because of his own selfishness, this beloved woman was looked at in a strange way by others.
In the next few days, Xiao Han accompanied Xue Pan through the surrounding scenic spots and through bustling cities and towns.
A pair of people like a couple of gods and goddesses silently left their long footprints and beautiful memories on this land of Hanzhong.
The autumn colors are getting thicker!
After an autumn rain, the last leaf on the persimmon tree quietly falls, leaving only the red persimmons hanging on the branches, like a string of lanterns guiding the way.
Under the crooked-necked old Liu in front of the door, Butler Lu ran back and forth, carefully checking the various luggage in the car, and from time to time scolding the accompanying people to move faster, they were leaving today!
The old woman and little boy from Hanzhong City invited by Xiao Han had also boarded the carriage. The grandfather and grandson were sitting in the carriage, waiting quietly to go to that strange city.
On the crooked neck old willow, withered yellow leaves swirled in the air and fell scatteredly on the heads of Xiao Han and Xue Pan under the tree.
Xiao Han raised his hand and gently took off the willow leaves that fell on Xue Pan's head. He looked at the person in front of him and smiled reluctantly: "Be safe on the way back. Don't worry about me! I will go back to see you during the Chinese New Year at the latest." you."
"Yes!" Xue Pan nodded vigorously, her eyes were red, and she stared at Xiao Han closely, as if she wanted to carve him deeply into her heart.
"Let's go, don't be too late, the mountain road is difficult, don't delay the journey." Xiao Han pretended to be free and easy, patted Xue Pan's head gently, turned his head and looked up at the rising sun in the sky.
I once heard someone say that there is no use looking up at the sky when crying. The tears flowing out of the tear ducts will not flow back due to gravity!
Now Xiao Han finally confirmed that this statement was correct. When he looked back, even though he tried hard to suppress it, a few tears still slowly slid down his cheeks.
It’s hard to meet, but it’s also hard to say goodbye!
Xue Pan slowly walked towards the carriage with red eyes. After taking a few steps, she stopped again and turned back sharply! He ran towards Xiao Han, stretched out his arms behind Xiao Han and hugged him fiercely!
Suddenly being protected by Xue Pan, the soft feeling shocked Xiao Han all over! Just as he was about to turn around and hug her, Xue Pan had already let go of his hand and ran towards the carriage without looking back!
Immediately afterwards, a burst of sobs that were so suppressed that they were inaudible came intermittently from the carriage.
Under the old willow with a crooked neck, Xiao Han stretched out his hand and scratched Xue Pan's back, but couldn't catch anything. In the end, he could only put it down in vain.
Xiao Han once felt that it was a bit exaggerated and false when seeing others say goodbye, but when it happened to him, he realized that the feeling was really heart-wrenching.
"Wow... I'm going to miss you! You're going to miss me too!"
Beside the carriage, a sudden burst of crying broke the parting tranquility!
Xiao Han wiped away the remaining tears from the corners of his eyes, calmed down and looked forward, but it was two girls, Xiao Ai and Xiao Lian, holding each other's arms and crying.
For some reason, these two little girls who almost started fighting each other the first time they met, in just this short period of time, their relationship became like a glue! Now that it's time to say goodbye, I naturally cry heartbreakingly.
Xiao Han once told Xiao Lian that she could go back to Chang'an with Xue Pan. After all, she would go back sooner or later. However, the little girl hesitated and shook her head firmly.
Xue Pan left, and if he left too, Xiao Han wouldn't even have personal care here, leaving Xiaodong and Lengzi to take care of him? These two careless guys didn't take good care of people, Xiao Han was really lucky!
The two little girls hugged each other and cried, but things in this world never depend on one's will. The parting that should come has still come.
Xiao Han followed the carriage and took Xue Pan to the Qinling Mountain Pass!
Watching the convoy slowly walking up the post road, his heart felt as heavy as a big stone blocking the road, and he remained silent for a long time. Even Xiao Qi, who had always been heartless, felt the depressing atmosphere, so he sat quietly next to Xiao Han without making a sound from just now.
The motorcade has finished, and Xue Pan can still be seen waving a handkerchief to Xiao Han from a distance, but the mountains and forests are so dense that any movement can no longer be seen clearly.
The last people who walked past Xiao Han were Jia Yi and others. They stood in the middle of the road, gave Xiao Han a heavy fist, and then followed the team in front without looking back.
The four brothers accepted Xiao Han's plea and would not come back until they escorted Xue Pan to Chang'an! After all, this road is full of mountains and rivers, and there are not many experts, so Xiao Han is really worried.
"Master Hou, he's gone..."
After waiting for a long time, Xiaodong stood beside Xiao Han and reminded him carefully.
He knew that every time his Lord Marquis said goodbye to his old friend, his mood would become very bad! It was like this when I sent Sun Simiao away last time, and I think it will be even more uncomfortable for Xue Pan this time.
"Have a safe trip..."
Awakened by Xiaodong's words, Xiao Han looked at the motorcade that had disappeared deep into the trees and waved his hands vigorously, hoping that his blessing would allow Xue Pan and the others to reach Chang'an safely.
As the sun rises in the sky, the wind rises in the mountains. Some cold mountain wind blew countless leaves flying in the sky. Seeing this, Xiaodong hurriedly put the coat in his hand on Xiao Han, and then whispered softly: "Master Hou, Miss Xue has so many guards, and Jia Yi Brother, there must be no problem with them! You don’t have much to wear, why don’t we go down the mountain first, before we get caught in the wind."
Xiao Han stretched out his hand to brush away a fallen leaf stuck to his face, tightened his collar, nodded while looking at the bleak mountains, and shook his head: "I don't want to go back now, hey, let's go see Daniel and the others."
"That's okay!" Xiaodong was now afraid that Xiao Han would block all his thoughts in his heart and cause trouble. Now that he was still normal, he breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly opened the way with Lengzi and headed towards where Daniel and Liuzi were. Walk to the top of the mountain.
The place where Daniu grows medicine is not too far from the Qinling Mountain Pass. After all, he chose it there because of the convenient transportation.
Walking along the mountain road, before getting closer, Xiao Han saw that the original shack beside the medicine field had been converted into a wooden house.
On the edge of the medicine field, there is a grid of thigh-thick wooden stakes. The grid, which is almost as tall as a person, is nailed deep into the ground. The top of the wood has been sharpened to a point, and it looks like a wooden stake. Each one stabbed straight into the sky like a spear.
