Chapter 22: Out of the City
Qiu He saw that she couldn't speak clearly, so he said, "Could it be that this child was picked up?"
"This... Pretty much. The raccoon said perfunctorily.
Seeing this, a ray of light flashed in the depths of Qiu He's eyes, and he wanted to say something, but it was difficult to speak, and then he changed the topic and said: "That's it, after we stabilize and the turmoil subsides, I'm coming to you." ”
Hearing this, the raccoon's eyes gradually brightened, and said, "What you said, you must come to find me, I will wait for you in the western town outside the city......"
"You'd better get as far away from Shengxi City as possible, you don't have to wait for me, I don't know how long it will take to come to you, anyway, don't worry, I will definitely come to you." Qiu He gently held the raccoon's hand in his palm and showed affection, as if telling her to rest assured that he would definitely come to look for her.
The tanuki glows with affection in her eyes, as if she is looking forward to the moment of reunion.
The day was speechless and teasing the baby, these two people were enough, so they simply hugged the child and quietly walked out of the house.
At noon the next day, at this time, Qiu He and the two of them had already dressed up as cargo carriers, one left and one right mixed in the team, there were 7 or 8 people in this team, and it was two merchants who transported goods out of the city together.
Walking with the raccoon dog is Sister Wen from the silk shop next door, the two merchants have always traded with each other, and the relationship between the two is also very good, and there is no doubt about the two people found by the raccoon.
They walked into the street and gradually moved towards the city gate, and in the middle of the road he was very nervous, and he not only smeared a layer of mud on his face but also smeared it with paint, for fear of being found and caught.
Qiu He saw that he had been trembling all the time, and he lifted a stone on his toes and flicked it on his index finger, only to hear the sound of "whoosh~", and the stone hit the straw hat he was wearing on his head.
The scorching day was stunned, and he didn't react to what was going on, only to hear someone cough.
Hearing this, he looked sideways and saw Qiu He staring at him with sharp eyes at this time, as if reminding him not to keep shaking, so as not to show his feet.
An hour later.
At this time, the convoy was close to the city gate, and he could already see the familiar city gate, if it wasn't for his bad luck just in time for the lockdown, he would have already left the city, he had been regretting it all the time, Qiu He and the others should have gone out of the city directly on the night they were arrested, but they were sleepy and simply slept until the next day.
Now the city gate is heavily guarded, there are probably dozens of people to check, in the city gate there are several people holding portraits to check the passing personnel one by one, the entire city gate around about 100 Qiu guards.
"I'm going, there are so many people, is this to catch the most vicious wanted thugs, and they are actually engaged in such a big formation. Seeing this scene, I couldn't help but sigh.
At this time, Qiu He quietly walked to the side of the scorching sun and said, "Hey, if the ugly boy is discovered when he crosses the city gate, don't care so much, we will kill him directly, and strike first, lest they react and open the ban and can't get out." ”
"Okay, then I'll listen to your gestures. ”
"Don't! Once they find out about one of us, whoever does it directly, remember to rush out of the city gate no matter what the cost, even if you fight to the death, or it will be completely finished. Qiu He was crazy, this may be the only chance.
Soon after, the procession approached the city gate, and under the long flow of people, the small procession of the burning day was moving slowly.
At this time, the scorching sun unintentionally swept around, and suddenly saw a familiar figure, he looked sideways, and immediately frightened him and almost cried out, "This... It's the man in black. ”
He immediately withdrew his gaze and lowered his head, for fear that Qiu Qiang would suddenly turn around and see him.
calmed down, Zhi Tian quickly stepped forward and ran to Qiu He's side, and said, "Brother He, I saw the man in black. ”
After hearing this, Qiu He was stunned and asked, "What? Where is he now? Where is he?"
As the words fell, the scorching sun pointed to the window above a stone wall above the city gate.
Qiu He looked around, and really saw where the man in black was looking at the people passing by.
"Damn! It's going to be troublesome now, don't panic and do it. Qiu He reassured, in fact, he didn't know the bottom in his own heart, after all, the other party was too strong, even if they rushed out of the city, they were not sure that they would be able to escape with their whole body.
After a stick of incense, at this time, the convoy of Zhi Sun and others had arrived at the entrance of the city, and was being inspected, and they were lucky to have successfully passed the first few checkpoints, and they were about to reach the last checkpoint.
"Slow, what are you doing so fast, take off my straw hat for me to be examined. At this time, Blazing Sun was stopped by a guard.
"What are you doing?" the nerves were highly tense, and his mind went blank when he was called like this.
"What am I doing? Lao Tzu told you to take off your hat for me to be examined, do you understand!" the guard was a little speechless at this question, and then shouted loudly.
"Don't take it off!" "Blazing Day, still refusing to take off his straw hat.
The guard was furious and immediately shouted, "Someone, quickly arrest this person for me and hand him over to the adults for interrogation!"
As soon as the words fell, Burning Sun completely lost control, "Get out of here!" He let out a low shout, and gave the guard a punch in a violent manner, and the guard was instantly knocked straight into the back wall, and at this time, Burning Sun was also intercepted by the guards who rushed to intercept him.
At first glance, these people are all three-layer martial artists in the Forging Body Realm, and it is extremely difficult to fight side by side with the martial arts they have learned in the special martial arts, and the scorching day is quite laborious, the scene is chaotic, and the surrounding people are also coaxing, and there is gradually a turbulent situation.
Just as Qiu He was about to help him get out of trouble, an extremely terrifying coercion suddenly came, feeling such a powerful coercion, he subconsciously thought that Qiu Qiang was coming, and after he reacted, he found that this coercion was much weaker than Qiu Qiang's pressure.
I saw a young man with seven veins in one corner, standing on top of the sword talisman and descending from above the city gate.
"What kind of system is the crowd gathering and fighting at the entrance of the city, and I won't stop it. The young man on the sword talisman spoke.
Qiu He looked at this strange young man carefully, this person's appearance was not good, his face was calm, his eyes were indifferent, and he had the seventh-level cultivation of the Forging Body Realm, which gave him the feeling that this person was easier to speak.
This young man's name is Qiu Wei who was arranged by the steward to assist in handling this incident, but it was Qiu Qiang who assisted Qiu Wei, don't look at him at the early stage of the seventh layer of the body realm, now he is slightly bigger than Qiu Qiang, it is he who succeeded Qiu Qiang and works under the steward.
This man was wearing a straw hat, refused to take it off for inspection, and violently assaulted people, and behaved extremely suspiciously. The guard dusted himself and bowed to the young man.
After listening, a hint of strangeness flashed in the young man's eyes, he looked at the people around him, and said: "Your Excellency, a few days ago, there were two heinous murderers, murder and arson, all evil, my Qiu family held the entrance of the city to prevent the murderers from escaping, causing some inconvenience to everyone, I hope you can understand, we are not only arresting the murderers for the sake of my Qiu family, but also for the safety of the people in the city, I hope everyone can understand." ”
Qiu Wei hugged his fists around and said humbly.
The surrounding people saw that Qiu Wei was so polite and polite, not at all as arrogant and domineering as Qiu Qiang, and it was not easy to make another incident, so they cast kind eyes and calmed down.
Qiu Wei smiled with satisfaction, looked back at the burning day, and said, "Your Excellency, take off your straw hat, don't make me embarrassed, everyone is also lining up behind and waiting to go out of the city." ”
At this moment, Qiu He squeezed over from the crowd, hugged his fist at Qiu Weiyi, and said: "My lord, I'm really sorry to delay your precious time, my little brother is afraid of life, and his brain is not good, so I will compensate you for this oolong." ”
After speaking, he also bowed with his fists around him.
Just as Qiu He was pulling the scorching sun and wanted to leave in a hurry, the guard at the beginning suddenly shouted, "Slow down for me!"
The guard's eyes narrowed slightly, with a hint of cunning in his eyes, and then he said, "Hmph! A fool with a bad brain can also cultivate to the fourth level of the Forging Body Realm?
"It's... This..."Qiu He was speechless for a while when asked like this, the situation was urgent, if he didn't go up to help relieve the siege, he might be arrested, so he just casually found an excuse to talk about it, but he really didn't expect to say such contradictory words.
"That adult, my brother accidentally opened the second vein of Ren Du to cultivate by leaps and bounds. At this moment, Qiu He himself didn't know how to explain it.
"Oh, what a magic trick you have? "The guard.
"It's... I'm afraid it's not very good, how can I take out my private belongings at will for people to observe. ”
"Hmph! It's really impossible for us to be idiots, Lao Tzu has been practicing martial arts since he was seven years old, and now he has been practicing martial arts for more than 20 years, and he can only cultivate to the peak of the third layer of the forging body realm because of his mediocre qualifications. ”
The guard was eloquent and pointed out suspicious points.
At this time, Zhi Tian's chest rose and fell, and he forcibly resisted the urge to beat this guard and be scolded as a fool in front of so many people, so it was uncomfortable for anyone, and Qiu He saw that Zhi Sun was shaking all over, and he also rubbed his fingers to signal not to be impulsive.
Just when Qiu He was distressed and didn't know how to answer, Qiu Wei on the sword talisman spoke: "Okay, that's enough! We don't want to explore the exercises practiced by others, I believe that my Qiu family's exercises don't need any bad exercises, please take off your straw hats and take a look." ”
Qiu He saw that Qiu was not good at procrastinating in order to help them break the siege, so he immediately took off his straw hat with the burning day, and the two ordinary and dirty faces were impressively revealed in front of Qiu Wei and the guards.
"Hmph! How do you look at your face when it's so dirty, why don't you wash your face quickly, and then let's take a closer look. The guard didn't give up.
"Hmm... No, let them pass. At this time, Qiu Wei said lightly.
"But my lord, I think their behavior is very suspicious, depending on the small one, whether to report it to Qiu Qiangren and let him ......"
"There's no need to call him over, these two people are just dirty spots on their faces, there are no scars, we don't need to do too much, otherwise it will damage the reputation of my Qiu family, and we can't make the people in the back queue wait too long." Qiu Wei's eyes flashed with a hint of strangeness, and he looked into the distance.
