As the sun sets, a golden glow shines on the earth. Behind Luo Jinyu is a team with prominent cavalry and high spirits.
They were marching slowly towards the border town, and the sound of horse hooves was as rhythmic as a drum, hitting the ground again and again, seeming to tell their firm determination.
Luo Jinyu's brows were full of determination and perseverance, and his eyes were like cold stars, shooting straight ahead through the saddle and into the distance.
His hands held the reins firmly, and his figure looked particularly tall and admirable in the afterglow of the setting sun.
Looking along their line of sight, the outline of the border town gradually appeared.
When Luo Jinyu and his party walked into the city gate, the atmosphere instantly changed.
The guards on both sides of the city gate were dressed in exquisite armor, with serious faces and bright eyes. The spears in their hands were as hard as iron and pointed straight to the sky, symbolizing protection and determination.
However, when Luo Jinyu's figure appeared in their sight, the guards' faces showed respect. They all lowered their heads and welcomed Luo Jinyu's arrival with the most respectful etiquette. Their movements were uniform, like a well-trained army. Although silent, they were full of strength and majesty.
The awe and respect in the eyes of these guards were not out of simple obedience, but from their deep admiration for Luo Jinyu.
In the eyes of the guards, Luo Jinyu is their pride and their guardian.
They feared him and trusted him. In their hearts, as long as Luo Jinyu was around, their city would be indestructible and fearless.
Luo Jinyu and his party passed through the city gate. Behind them, the guards still maintained admiration and watched them go away quietly.
He sat on the high horse and looked at both sides of the street. Many pedestrians looked at them and waved their hands to welcome them back.
However, in the crowd, he did not see the figure that he cared about.
The corner of Luo Jinyu's mouth curled up slightly, thinking that it was just because he didn't want to tell her when he would be back.
It's not that he doesn't want her to greet him, he's just afraid that she will work too hard.
At this time, Shu Zhihan and Lu He were sitting in a crowded teahouse, quietly sipping fragrant afternoon tea.
The sunlight shines through the dust and casts mottled light and shadow on the wooden windows, bringing a sense of tranquility and serenity to this corner.
In the teahouse, the sound of boiling water intertwined with the sound of tea leaves being poured from the pot into the cup. Shu Zhihan and Lu He were sitting on the second floor of the teahouse. From here, they could see the bustling streets and pedestrians coming and going downstairs.
The two of them were sipping tea and chatting in low voices about the latest news in the city.
Shu Zhihan looked down at the street below.
On weekdays, this street is bustling with people, but today it is surprisingly lively. She couldn't help but poke her head out, wanting to find out.
Shu Zhihan quietly watched the crowd on the street. Their actions were surprisingly consistent, and they seemed to be moving in the same direction. She saw people moving together, like an invisible torrent drawing them to the same point.
She turned to Lu He, with doubts and uneasiness in her eyes, "Lu He, look at those people, are they squeezing over there?" She pointed to the direction in which people were heading and asked questions.
Lu He followed Shu Zhihan's guidance and looked with an expression of surprise and confusion on his face, "It seems so, Zhihan, I don't know what happened, but I can go find out."
Shu Zhihan watched Lu He disappear into the crowd quickly after going downstairs, while she remained where she was, continuing to watch this strange scene.
There is an endless stream of pedestrians on the street, and people are rushing forward, as if being pulled forward by an invisible force.
Shu Zhihan was filled with confusion and confusion. She didn't know what this scene meant or what would happen next.
This was her instinctive reaction to the unknown, facing an uncertain situation, but she knew that she could only unravel the mystery by waiting for Lu He to bring back the news.
Finally, Luhe is back
, her expression was serious, and her eyes flashed nervously.
"Zhihan, I heard something big," Lu He said breathlessly, "Let's go down first with me."
Shu Zhihan took a breath of air, not understanding what was going on.
"No, what happened? Where are you dragging me to?"
Lu He didn't dare to drag her too fast, but he was still a little anxious.
"You come with me first, and you will find out later. Let me tell you, it will definitely be a big surprise."
Lu He and Shu Zhihan were pushed around in the crowd. They tried their best to keep their positions and not be swallowed up by the crowd around them. They held each other's hands tightly to stay connected in the hustle and bustle.
They pushed aside the crowd, and Lu He pulled Shu Zhihan hard to make her keep up with him.
After a difficult period of crowding, Lu He and Shu Zhihan finally made their way to the front of the crowd.
The two of them stood at the front, looking forward.
Lu He looked at the expression on her face and couldn't help but want to laugh.
Shu Zhihan saw a group of people approaching from a distance. The leader was tall and straight, like a mountain peak in the sun. His riding steps were firm and powerful, and every stroke of the horse's hoof was like tapping the heart of the earth.
His hair, long black hair, fluttered in the wind, contrasting with the sky behind him.
There was an authority, an indescribable charm in that hair.
As the team of people got closer and closer, Shu Zhihan's heart beat faster and faster.
Just because she knew that the person in charge, the person who made her heart beat faster, was Luo Jinyu. The person she had missed for a long time.
He...he's back. Shu Zhihan's heart was in chaos. She didn't know what she should do. She just stood there blankly, watching him get closer and closer.
Lu He turned to look at Shu Zhihan and found that her face was full of nervousness.
She gently touched Shu Zhihan with her arm, "What are you still thinking about? Why don't you go over?"
"I'm a little nervous. Why did she come back suddenly? I don't even know."
Seeing her like this, Lu He sighed helplessly, then waved his hands vigorously and shouted loudly: "Luo Jinyu."
Everyone around was shouting "General", and it was really not easy for one person's voice to be heard over this group.
Luo Jinyu was moving forward steadily. His mind was immersed in his own world and he didn't pay much attention to the sounds around him.
However, a somewhat familiar voice penetrated the silence and called out his name. He paused slightly and subconsciously turned his head to look. In an instant, his steps stopped.
He saw Lu He waving vigorously at him, and the woman standing next to her was Shu Zhihan, whom he had always missed.
She was wearing elegant clothes, with a hint of blush on her delicate face, like a lotus blooming in the morning light, quiet and beautiful, her eyes sparkling with light, like the starry night sky, deeply attracting him. ..
When all the people present saw this scene, they couldn't help but shudder in their hearts and looked at Lu He.
Everyone thought, it's over, this person is really courageous, he dared to call the general by his first name.
At this time, everyone saw Luo Jinyu jump off the horse again and throw the reins to Meng Haowen.
Everyone watched Luo Jinyu slowly walk towards the girl who just called his name.
Everyone couldn't help but feel a cold sweat for this girl, thinking that this woman was really going to die.
What no one expected was that Luo Jinyu walked directly in front of them, but his eyes were directed at Shu Zhihan next to Lu He.
Shu Zhihan stood there, watching Luo Jinyu walking towards her, and her heart began to jump involuntarily. She felt a little nervous, and she even didn't dare to meet his eyes.
Luo Jinyu's
Every step seemed to be beating on Shu Zhihan's heartstrings, making her unable to calm down. She tried to control her heartbeat, but the beating seemed to have a life of its own and kept beating wildly in her chest.
She quietly took a deep breath, trying to calm her emotions, but the complex emotions of anticipation, nervousness, and sweetness made her heart beat faster.
All her senses seemed to be adjusted to the highest sensitivity. Whether it was the sound of Luo Jinyu's footsteps she heard in her ears or every smile she saw in his eyes, it seemed to be stimulating her heartbeat.
Shu Zhihan could almost feel her heartbeat speeding up. His approach made her so nervous and excited.
When Luo Jinyu walked up to her, he looked at her and said with a smile, "Why are you here?"
"I... I was drinking tea here with Lu He just now. I saw everyone running this way, so I came over to take a look."
Luo Jinyu glanced at Lu He beside him, with a hint of surprise in his eyes.
He didn't understand why the two of them met to drink tea together, and he wanted an answer to the doubts in his heart.
But I heard Lu He say: "Okay, don't be so surprised. Let's talk about it after we get back. As for the people, I'll leave them to you first, and I'll go back by myself."
As soon as Lu He finished speaking, he left the crowd.
Luo Jinyu glanced at Shu Zhihan and asked softly, "Are you tired after standing for so long?"
Shu Zhihan shook her head gently, "I'm not tired."
As soon as she finished speaking, Luo Jinyu bent down slightly and picked her up directly.
Everyone present couldn't help but feel very surprised when they saw this scene, and everyone couldn't help but exclaimed in exclamation.
"Oh, there are so many people watching, please put me down quickly."
Shu Zhihan felt a little shy, but Luo Jinyu had no intention of putting her down, and just hugged her and put her on the horse.
After they left, they were drowned out by a burst of discussion.
