Chapter 233: An Ominous Omen

The sixth day of the ninth month.

This is the eleventh day that Wei Lai took the disciples of the Qingying Academy into the territory of Yuanzhou.

Yuanzhou is not big compared to other states and counties in Great Chu, but now the situation in Great Chu is special, and the team of nearly 600 people has to hide people's eyes and ears and ensure the connection between them, so the speed of progress is naturally surprisingly slow.

Eleven days have passed, and Wei Lai and his party have just walked to the middle of Yuanzhou.

According to the previous convention, Wei Lai, Xu Yue and Lu Yan'er dressed up as Jianghu rangers- Now the war of the Great Chu for all sides has gradually kicked off, the brunt of the Jin State and the Liuying can be described as precarious, it is said that the war on the border is losing one after another, and now the north can be with the Chu State for a long time only the Qi State in the west, the Qi State also launched an attack on the border at this time, the Great Chu divided the troops against the Qi State, giving the northern countries a little respite, but how long this time can be, no one can guarantee it, even in the territory of the Great Chu is permeated with a sense of slaughter and fear.

At this juncture, although the territory of Dachu is not yet chaotic, the censorship of people who travel to and from various places is much stricter.

Yuanzhou is located on the border, and it is obviously not common sense to flee here, if it is to do business, it will inevitably be censored more severely, after all, if the imperial court will not allow the resale of grain, grass and ordnance during this period, so Wei Lai thought about it, and it was more appropriate to disguise the three of them as rangers who wanted to go to the border to join the army and show their ambitions to gain fame.

The three of them, as usual, relied on the dress that was still in line with their identities and the set of rhetoric they had already thought of, and they easily passed the review at the city gate.

Then found an inn, before the entrance, Xu Yue used spiritual power to inlay a small white stone into the wall at the entrance of the inn - this is the signal they left to those Qingying Academy Palace scholars, the Qingying Academy Palace scholars lurking in all sides rely on such marks to confirm each other's safety to arrive at the next stop in the plan, someone is specifically responsible for counting the Shizi who settle in each predetermined town every day, and then report the data they have counted to Qin Xiang's hands, and let him count whether the number of people is true, but someone suffers.

According to the initial agreement, every three days, Qin Xiang had to find Wei Lai to report to him about the situation of all parties.

Today is the day.

Wei Lai, Xu Yue and Lu Yan'er had dinner in the door, but they never waited for Qin Xiang's arrival.

"Ah Lai, why hasn't Mr. Qin arrived yet, will there be any accidents?" Lu Yan'er cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks, and paid the meal and room money for the second child in the store, turned his head to look at Wei Lai, frowned and asked with some concern.

"Don't think about it, Mr. Qin is a stable person, we are cautious enough these days, and Da Chu is busy with wars in various places, so there shouldn't be any kung fu to track us down. Wei Lai said in a deep voice, of course he said it very easily, but the tightly furrowed brows obviously exposed the same faint worry in his heart at the moment.

"That's what I said, but I was faintly uneasy since I walked into the city today......" Lu Yan'er didn't notice Wei Lai's abnormality, but continued to speak on his own.

Hearing this, Wei Lai glanced at the other party with a strange expression, there is indeed an omen in this world, especially for monks with advanced cultivation. Sometimes some inexplicable inductions in the heart are harbingers in the dark, so many monks are relatively cautious about such inductions.

But every time Wei Lai walked into a new town, he would secretly release his divine sense, and today was no exception, but he didn't find anything unusual. Thinking of this, Wei said: "Yan'er, you have just encountered a great disaster, it is not strange to have some such thoughts, plus the daily rush with us in the past few days is indeed not good for your mental recovery." ”

"Today you have a good rest, don't think too much, I am here for everything. ”

Wei Lai said this, looking at Lu Yan'er's gaze was extremely soft, and Xu Yue on the side suddenly gritted his silver teeth when he saw this.

She glanced at Lu Yan'er viciously, then reached out and pressed it on her head, with a contrived and exaggerated look of pain on her face.

"Oops! people's heads hurt too!"

Wei Lai looked sideways at Xu Yue when he heard this, and Xu Yue's body fell into Wei Lai's arms at that time. Her hands wrapped around Wei Lai's waist, and her head squeezed hard in Wei Lai's arms, as if she wanted to rub her body into the other party's body.

Wei Lai was subconsciously a little worried when he heard this, but after Xu Yue

's posture made him suddenly smile wryly, and he understood that there was nothing wrong with Xu Yue, he just knocked over the vinegar jar. These days, Lu Yan'er follows them, Xu Yue has no less temper because of Wei Lai's concern for Lu Yan'er, Wei Lai also tried to explain the truth to Xu Yue, telling her what his relationship with Lu Yan'er was in the past, I thought that such a childhood sweetheart experience could make Xu Yue let down his guard, but who knew that after knowing that Wei Lai had secretly liked Lu Yan'er, Xu Yue's vinegar strength could be said to have increased instead of decreasing, and Wei Lai was sometimes a little helpless.

"Yue'er...... Don't make a fuss,......," Wei Lai said helplessly.

"Hmph!" Xu Yue also knew that her little trick could not fool Wei Lai, she stood up from Wei Lai's arms with some reluctance, looked up at Wei Lai, and then stomped her feet dissatisfiedly, and then said: "Husband is partial! She didn't say anything, Husband Jun knew to let her have a good rest, and people told you that you still don't believe it!"

Lu Yan'er lowered her head with some guilt when she heard this, not daring to make a sound, and Wei Lai also smiled bitterly and was about to defend something.

Knock knock.

But at this moment, there was a sudden knock on the door.

Is it Qin Xiang?

Wei Lai's face changed when he heard the sound, and when he looked at that place, Xu Yue could also distinguish the importance and put away his nonsense.

"Please come in. Wei Lai gathered his thoughts and spoke in the direction of the door.

But surprisingly, the door was not pushed open, but the knock continued to ring, but it was not urgent, but it continued to sound according to a frequency, which made people feel a little harsh.

Wei Lai's brows furrowed, and he and the two of them glanced at each other, and they both saw a solemn look in each other's eyes.

Then Wei Laiyun gathered the spiritual power around him and slowly walked to the door, he stretched out his hands to open the door, and at the same time, the vigilance in his heart was also raised to the extreme at that time. He thought that as long as the person outside the door made the slightest move, he would take action at the first time to take down this uninvited guest.

But the moment the door opened, Wei saw the appearance of the person outside the door, and it was Qin Xiang himself.

Wei Lai's heart was relieved, and he said, "Mr. Qin......"

As soon as these words were spoken, Wei Lai's pupils suddenly dilated, and Qin Xiang's body was at that moment, falling straight towards him......
