Tie Qingyi, Cai Yi, and the others immediately stood up and left the restaurant. Yue Biao's sharp eyes suddenly noticed that a sedan chair with a red lid had stopped at a place not too far away from the tavern. Bai Dalong and his wife left on their horses. In just a blink of an eye, he actually did not know where that softness came from? The ones who were lifting him were two big men. They were tall and sturdy, wearing green clothes and had muscles on their chests. They had fierce expressions on their faces.

Li Yan cried out in delight, "Brother Xin, Second Brother Xin!" Brother Xin and Second Brother Xin let go of their soft spots and bowed in greeting. Li Yan continued, "Why are you two here?"

Brother Xin looked at Tie Qingyi with fear in his eyes. He replied respectfully: "Reporting to Miss, news has come from the northwest that the Old Master is very ill. Master has specially ordered this little brother to come and bring you back."

"What?" My father is severely ill! " Li Yan's face turned pale as she asked anxiously, "When did this happen?"

Second Brother Xin said, "The Lord received a message this morning from the Northwest Disciple, ordering the Little Brother to go to the Frail Gang Division and inform the Young Miss. When we brothers got there, we found out that the Miss had gone south, so we chased her all the way. "Since it is an emergency, please get on the palanquin immediately, and the lord will wait at the ferry several miles away."

Li Yan suddenly felt suspicious as she asked curiously, "It's more than a hundred miles from Luoyang to here, but why is big brother waiting for me at the crossing point a few miles away?" He thought to himself, "Could it be that big brother doesn't want me to be with that evil thief and purposefully fabricated news of father's illness to deceive me to go back?"

Brother Xin said, "Master has received news that the Old Master is gravely ill and does not dare to delay for even a moment. Miss Wen Wen went south to Run Zhou and ordered the two of us to search for her by land. They had agreed that their master would meet by water at the ferry-crossing, regardless of meeting their mistress or not. I did not expect to meet Miss here. Please get on the palanquin and quickly meet her at the ferry, in case Master is worried and anxious. " Li Yan looked at Tie Qingyi, hesitating.

Seeing her doubt and reluctance, Tie Qingyi said: "Little Yanzi, since Senior Li is so sick, we'll follow you to the ferry to see what's going on."

Li Yan nodded in agreement, but she did not sit on her tender body and walked with Tie Qingyi and the others. Brother Xin lifted his sword and led the way as if he was flying. They entered the small alley and arrived at a small ferry in less than an incense's time.

Seeing Li Longzi's large ship, carved with dragons and carved with phoenixes, docking on the shore, Tie Qingyi stopped and said, "Xiao Yanzi, we'll wait for you here. You can go board the ship and ask your brother about this, then come back and notify us. If you do not return within two hours, or if the ship leaves by itself, Tie Qingyi will rush to the ship to pick you up. "

Li Yan knew in her heart that he was unwilling to see her brother, and she was also afraid that her brother and Tie Qingyi's old grudge would not be wiped out and that they both had such prideful characters, so she was afraid that a new grudge would be added. Furthermore, seeing her brother's large boat really berth at this place, she was worried that her father would be sick, so she quickly replied and hurriedly boarded the boat with the Xin brothers.

The three of them cleaned a piece of the shore and invited Tie Qingyi to take a seat. Tie Qingyi shook her head and looked around. There were a few small boats docked on the shore. Some of the boatmen were busy lighting fires and cooking, while others were pointing at the boat and talking. It was unknown what they were talking about as it was likely that there were very few boats docked at the ferry.

Ning Erhe and the others knew that if Li Yan's father really became seriously ill, the two of them would definitely have to be separated for a period of time. The three of them guessed that Tie Qingyi was definitely not in a good mood. They tactfully stood far away, afraid that they would accidentally touch a hero's sore spot.

Tie Qingyi looked back at the people's terrified expressions and found it funny. "Why are you three so far away from me like you're avoiding the god of pests?"

As the host of this trip, Ning Erhe stepped forward and said in shame, "If Young Master wasn't burdened with such trivial matters, you would have personally accompanied Young Madam back to your hometown in the Northwest to visit Old Senior Li. When I think about this reason, I can't help but feel fear. "

Tie Qingyi said sternly: "I have already said that my friend is in trouble, I am duty-bound to do whatever I can!" Why did Brother Ning say such words? Did you misunderstand my behavior and words? "

A hero's breadth of mind was indeed different from others. Ning Erhe and the other two were overjoyed upon hearing this. They hurriedly condemned him. Tie Qingyi laughed: "You guys don't understand Tie Qingyi, so don't be polite in the future. We're all brothers, if anyone is unwilling, then I will look down on them."

The three of them were greatly shocked. Even though what they said was true, they did not dare to agree rashly. Cai Yi's words were just about to be translated into words when Yue Biao said, "Young Madam is back."

Tie Qingyi turned her head around, and saw that the tears had not dried from the corners of Li Yan's eyes, and without caring about Cai Yi and the two others beside her, she quickly walked over and threw herself into his embrace, saying faintly: "My father really is sick, I have personally seen his letter. This time, I really have to go home, but I really can't bear to part with you. After you have dealt with the matter of the Godly Fist Sect, can you come and pick me up from the northwest? "I still want to roam the Jianghu with you. I want to go outside to see Master and Mistress, and I want to do many many things with you …" As he spoke, tears rolled down his face.

After a long while, she slowly said, "Little Yanzi, as long as the matter of the Godly Fist Sect is settled, the first thing I will do is personally go to the northwest to pick you up. I will definitely do what I promised you, don't worry." Li Yan broke down crying into a smile, tightly holding onto Tie Qingyi's neck, unwilling to let go.

The three of them quietly walked away. They couldn't bear to disturb this couple that was about to part. Seeing the usually happy little princess crying and laughing in Tie Qingyi's embrace, and her reluctant to leave, the few of them felt their noses sour and their eyes astringent.

The gentle breeze blew gently and warmed the air. The sound of three drums rang out from the great ship. Li Yan's eyes were filled with tears as she suddenly broke away from Tie Qingyi's embrace, turned around, and ran. After running two steps, she stopped and without turning her head, shouted crisply: "Great Scoundrel, listen, Li Yan will never marry anyone but you. "Those who live and are part of the Iron family, those who die and become iron gates, remember everything you say today, do not disappoint each other!" After he finished speaking, he didn't say anything else and ran all the way onto the boat.

As the large ship set sail, Li Yan finally couldn't help but look back. Tie Qingyi's white robes fluttered on the shore. The distance between them was too far, and his carved face could no longer be seen. However, she could feel that the handsome white-robed man was already in tears. Suddenly, he couldn't help but cry out loud.

The river reflected the autumn shadows, and the swallow hovered and flew low. Tie Qingyi followed in the direction of the ship and took a few steps forward. She stood on the shore with her hands behind her back. His heart seemed like a calm water, but it was filled with infinite loneliness and desolation.

That was it: since ancient times, he had only been able to part ways. However, he could only send her off with his gaze. Who dares to say that? Stay, stay, flower blooming and thank you, where do we know each other?
