Chapter 45: The Much-Hyped Secret
Before the sun rose, Huiyue had been woken up by the movement of Xia Xiao and Shu Shuang. In fact, they are very light, but Huiyue sleeps very lightly.
On one side, Xia Xiao and Shu Shuang stood together to wash, each movement almost synchronized. Seeing Huiyue wake up, they turned their heads to look, but they didn't speak.
Looking at their backs, Huiyue had a very magical feeling, like the two of them were one. After washing, Shu Shuang combed a green silk hair into a ponytail, and then coiled it up. She didn't want to be grabbed by the hair during the battle, so Xia Xiao handed her the hairpin. Then put on soft armor for each other, button the back buttons, and put on a piece of clothing, and you're ready.
Picking up the bread and apples on the table, the two began to nibble.
"We'll be back at noon, and we'll pick us up then." ”
Shu Shuang held the apple in both hands, and the breadcrumbs at the corners of her mouth were wiped off by Xia Xiao with her hands. It's a simple action, but it's very warm.
Hui Yue couldn't react, she was like a walking dead without any goals. And Xia Xiao and Shu Shuang seized every second, and their movements were scary.
The two kernels were thrown into the trash in an arc, Xia Xiao bent down, tied a dagger to his leg, and stepped on a Pu knife.
"Gone!"
After Xia Xiao finished speaking, he picked up two bags of quivers in his right hand, held a strong crossbow in his left hand, and went out with Shu Shuang.
"Be careful all the way. ”
Huiyue was slightly stunned and chased out.
At the door of the inn, Xia Xiao hung three bags of quivers and a strong crossbow on the back of a horse, covered it with a layer of cloth, and then sat on a horse in front of him with Shu Shuang and headed out of the city.
With the map of Huiyue, Xia Xiao has made the best route, although it will go around in a circle, but that location is conducive to concealment.
Seeing them leaving, Huiyue stood at the door of the inn for a long time. What could she do? Just watch them go?
With his back to the newborn Chaoyang, Xiao Er, who was leading the horse, saw Xia Xiao and Shu Shuang leaving, and couldn't help sighing, muttering:
"It's a pity, it's a cool two, but it's going to be over. ”
"No, it won't!"
Huiyue replied, which made Xiao Er a little embarrassed, but he didn't express his opinion, just returned to his inn and sat behind the counter. It's still early, you can squint a little longer.
"Definitely coming back. ”
Looking at the direction in which Xia Xiao and Shu Shuang left, Huiyue's tired little face was full of sorrow. She wanted to do something, turned around and ran to Martial Arts City.
There are people in Wudou City 24 hours a day, and there are even more people guarding it at this time. Although Huiyue's status is low, she is also an insider, and she ran to her residence after entering. In the dark, damp little room, the other sisters were still asleep, but she tiptoed out all her savings and prepared to go to the pharmacy to buy medicine.
When Xia Xiao and Shu Shuang come out of the bandits' den, they will definitely need medicine, and hemostatic and painkillers are the first choice.
She was planning in her head, but after a turn, she ran into Bin. The white-bearded man frightened Hui Yue into disarray, and hurriedly took a few steps back. The serious steward has become a demon in the eyes of Huiyue, who only knows how to suck human flesh and blood, and has no emotions to speak of.
"Where are you going?"
Steward Bin's face was cold, and Huiyue didn't dare not answer.
"Buy medicine!"
"Don't waste that money, they won't come back. ”
A hint of coldness appeared on the old face of the steward, the tiger cottage was under the jurisdiction of Rongcheng, Lin Jing had already sent cultivators to suppress the bandits, and although the result was victorious, those guys were like mushrooms after a rain, which was unguardable. Moreover, the cultivators of the three condensation realms are all extraordinary, plus they are ruthless, and their tacit understanding is extremely high. Not to mention Xia Xiao, even some powerhouses in Rongcheng can't deal with it.
Hearing the affirmation in Steward Bin's words, Huiyue's tears welled up, and a burst of pear blossoms brought rain. She didn't sit still in the face of the situation at home, but now she was involved in others, and those were two living lives, only a little older than her brother.
"Why? Is it because they are so strong that they will occupy the quota for the local competition?"
Steward Bin stepped forward, forcing Huiyue to have no way out. He raised his hand, and the only thing Hui Yue could respond to was the cold sweat on his forehead, did he want to kill himself? Under the aura of politeness, she had no way of escaping.
With her chin pinched, Hui Yue had no choice but to raise her head, and Steward Bin's wrinkled face was just a few centimeters in front of her.
"There are a lot of things that don't have a reason, just wait and see the show. ”
With a snort, Steward Bin turned and left, a lowly maidservant, not worth his hands.
Huiyue bit her lip, and her blood was red. She was a little confused, but she still walked out of Wudou City without giving up, and if she could survive, she would definitely be able to!
At this time, the sky was gradually brightening, and the entire Rongcheng woke up. People came and went on the street, and Hui Yue walked inside, and heard people say:
"I heard there was a covert operation this morning. ”
"What's the matter?"
"Suppress the bandits, the city lord sent a secret detachment to break into the bandits first, and then surround them at noon, and come to meet the outside!"
"I'm afraid one team isn't enough, right?"
"No, I've heard that there are only two of them. But it seems to be a legendary person from afar, more than a year ago from the emperor to Longgang, don't you know? The name seems to be ...... Xia Xiao!"
"I've heard that guy still resisted the order, although the dynasty doesn't have an accurate response now, he won't live long. Now be merciful and help us suppress the bandits, this is a good thing, and we don't have to worry about it in the future!"
......
Hui Yueqiao's face froze, and she looked back in disbelief, feeling that the sky was dark.
Those who come from afar...... Xia Xiao ...... She said the name was familiar. No wonder he had a body of cultivation at a young age, it turned out to be him.
Combining what he heard about Xia Xiao yesterday with his identity, Huiyue suddenly realized. She understood that Xia Xiao went from Longgang to Rongcheng because of the local competition, but he obtained Yinghu, but he did not agree to join the alliance. In this way, the lord of the castle and the steward wanted to eliminate this competitor.
Hui Yue confirmed her thoughts, and immediately felt that the steward and the city lord were vicious. They don't dare to do it openly, so they can only use themselves as bait......
Running up to the man, Hui Yue grabbed his collar with both hands.
"Who told you? Who told you?"
The man looked confused, and replied hesitantly:
"The people of the City Lord's Mansion, just now. ”
It's a secret operation, Huiyue has red eyes and some hatred. Want to hype it up and then push the boat downstream? It's shameless!
When Huiyue was not looking, the news had spread completely. Soon, under the special care of the city lord and steward Bin, everyone will know that Xia Xiao and Shu Shuang took the initiative to ask for help and went to encircle and suppress the bandits' den!
When Huiyue was anxious and helpless, Xia Xiao and Shu Shuang stopped after they had gone around to the bandits' den.
