Chapter 204: Farewell to the Lady, Road Encounter and Death

Lu Yi hadn't gotten up early the next morning, when he heard a knock on the door, he thought it was Lei Qingyi coming, and when he was about to get up and get dressed in a panic, he suddenly heard the voice of the chief outside the door: "Lu Xianggong, it's time to get up and eat!" ”

Lu Yi was stunned for a moment, hurriedly agreed, quickly dressed and opened the door, and saw the chief and two servants standing at the door, one holding a basin in his hand, and the other carrying a food box, Lu Yi hurriedly beckoned the three of them into the house, and said apologetically: "I slept late last night, but I bothered the elder Li!" ”

Li Chang shook his head with a smile and said, "What did Lu Xianggong say?" It's not me who bothered, but the little lady of your family! So saying, he instructed the two servants to put the basin and the food box on the table.

Lu Yi was stunned, not knowing the meaning of the long words.

The elder smiled and took out a letter from his sleeve and handed it to Lu Yi and said, "Early this morning, when it was just dawn, your little lady came to the old man's house with a few people, asked me to prepare some food for you and send it over, and asked me to pass on this letter to you." ”

Lu Yi took the envelope from the hand of the lieutenant in confusion, walked to the side of the bed and looked down, and sure enough, he saw that only the horse he rode was left in the backyard, and the other horses and carriages were gone, and there was no trace of a person in the courtyard.

He hurriedly opened the envelope and took out a piece of stationery from it, and as soon as he opened it, he saw three juanxiu fly-headed characters: Brother Lu, Lu Yi quickly read down, and his heart was really Lei Qingyi's tone.

Lei Qingyi said in her heart that she had been away from home for some time this time, and she had already seen the person she wanted to see, because she was afraid that her parents would worry about her, and she had already followed her three uncles and uncles on the way back to Hongdu, and at the end of the letter, she also specifically mentioned that last night was the happiest time in her life.

Lei Qingyi really left like this? Lu Yi looked at the letter in his hand in a daze, and suddenly saw two dried water stains on the envelope, he subconsciously reached out to touch it, it was a little hard, and a white circle was faint around the water stains, which were traces of tears.

Lu Yi's heart suddenly jumped, and this was the sound of this morning, in the haze, he vaguely heard the sound of opening the door and walking around the door, and someone talking in a whisper, he didn't care too much at that time, at this time, he thought that Lei Qingyi must have left at that time, and he suddenly felt a faint loss in his heart.

It wasn't until the chief reminded him that Lu Yi came back from his trance, hurriedly apologized to the chief, and hurriedly washed up and sat down to eat, but he didn't know if it was because the chief was watching from the side, or something else.

After breakfast, the servant who was waiting on the side cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks and food boxes, and put away the food boxes that Lu Yi brought over yesterday, and quickly helped Lu Yi clean the room before exiting the room.

Lu Yi chatted with the elder Li again, and learned from the elder that early this morning, the elder of the town had already escorted a few bandits from last night and Lei Qingyi and others on the road together, heading for Xiangcheng.

Lu Yi guessed that the Lei family should have a foothold in Xiangcheng, and the relationship between Perak Hall and the government has always been close, although this is not Hongdu, presumably the people of the government will also sell some face to the three elders of the Lei family, and they will inevitably severely punish a few bandits, so he put his mind at ease.

The lieutenant chief was originally going to invite Lu Yi to live in Yingyang Town for a longer time, but Lu Yi was concerned about Chengdu and did not want to delay too much here, so he declined the lieutenant's kindness.

When going from the inn to the west of the town, the chief was very enthusiastic to help Lu Yi buy dry food, clothes and a pair of products, Lu Yi was not easy to refuse, so he had to accept them one by one, but when he left, he quietly stuffed a piece of silver five taels into the waist of the chief.

Although he inadvertently helped the mayor and the people in the town, but in the past two days, the mayor's warm hospitality must have cost a lot, and the mayor's family is not a wealthy family, but it is more solid than the ordinary people's homes.

After saying goodbye to the chief, Lu Yi turned over and got on the horse, and went all the way to Nanyang Mansion along the official road, his original plan was to pass Nanyang and Xiangyang from Yanling, and then pass from Jingzhou to Bashu, and later because he met Lei Qingyi, he wanted to send Lei Qingyi home first, so he changed his mind to take Yiyang to Xiakou to board the ship, and now that Lei Qingyi has left with the three elders of the Lei family, he naturally has no need to go to Xiakou again, and simply acts according to the original plan.

The green horse under the crotch was held back for two days, and as soon as he went to the official road, he ran forward like a happy child, but Lu Yi's equestrian skills were okay, otherwise he would have to be lifted off the horse by this guy.

Lu Yi grabbed the reins of the horse with one hand, preventing this guy from jumping into the grass and woods on both sides of the official road, and holding the Chengying Sword in the other hand, warning himself in his heart that he could not show people with this sword casually in the future, otherwise it would be easy to bring unnecessary trouble to himself.

What happened last night is a good example, if it weren't for the "Thousand Variations Shura" Shui Yingxia who saw the Chengying Sword in his hand, how could he be greedy and snatch the sword?

Thinking about it like this, Lu Yi simply wrapped the Chengying Sword with a strip of cloth and carried it behind him, and then took out a human skin mask from his luggage, and put it on his face, and immediately became a scholar with a white face and gentle and elegant.

Xiao Qingyun stole all the disguised things from the room of Long Baichuan, Lu Yi simply took out a merry scribe scarf from his luggage and tied his hair up, and took out a folding fan in his hand, plus he had already changed his clothes this morning, and the whole person suddenly changed greatly.

Lu Yi's skin was originally a slightly dark bronze, and this human skin mask was a little white, but the human skin mask made by Long Baichuan was very delicate and could cover the area below the chin, if it wasn't for an experienced person in the rivers and lakes, it wouldn't be so easy to find if you didn't look closely.

It's just that there is no mirror and no water at hand, otherwise Lu Yi really wants to see what he looks like now? By the way, how about checking your level of disguise?

It's not that Lu Yi is afraid of causing trouble and doesn't dare to show his true face, but in this way, he can save a lot of trouble, after all, the Chengying Sword is a famous magic weapon in the rivers and lakes, if the **** Baidao people hear the wind and take it, where does he have so much energy to deal with them one by one?

Even if he really packed up all the people who came to grab the sword, it would take a lot of energy and time, and when he arrived in Chengdu, it was estimated that the daylilies were cold, and at that time it was really a big loss.

When parting, Lu Yi specifically asked the chief, from Yingyang Town to Nanyang Mansion is a full three hundred miles away, and in the middle of the majestic, peaks and peaks of the Funiu Mountains, even if it is fast, I am afraid it will take two or three days to arrive, along the way Lu Yi did not dare to delay too much, along the official road galloped wildly for more than half a day, and finally came to a place called Long Bridge.

Lu Yi didn't know whether Changqiao was a town or a village, he led his horse to the river to drink enough water, and saw a teahouse next to the official road, so he led the horse over.

The teahouse is at the head of the bridge by the river, and it is a necessary place to cross the river to the west, but there are no people at noon, only one tea Xiaoer and a shopkeeper-like person are sitting in it chatting, seeing Lu Yi leading the horse over, Cha Xiaoer hurriedly came out to take the reins from Lu Yi's hand, and beckoned Lu Yi to go inside.

Cha Xiaoer's movements were quite fast, Lu Yi had already tied his horse and returned before he sat down when he walked into the tea shed, and diligently helped Lu Yi pat the dust on the stool and table, and bowed slightly and said with a smile: "This guest officer, do you drink tea or sharpen it?" ”

Lu Yi saw that in addition to the steaming tea in the teahouse, there were indeed cooked beef, peanuts, cold vegetables, etc. on the simple counter next to it, so he smiled and threw him a few coins of broken silver and said, "If you are a little thirsty, bring me a pot of herbal tea first, and then bring some beef to cut and take away." ”

Cha Xiaoer hurriedly sang a promise, and went to prepare tea and beef quickly.

The shopkeeper was probably very bored, and when he saw that Lu Yi was coming alone, he came over with a plate of peanuts and talked to Lu Yi as if he was familiar.

Lu Yi happened to have something to ask, but he didn't ignore it, the two of them chatted, and after a while, Cha Xiaoer prepared tea and sent it over.

Lu Yi poured a bowl for himself, and then poured a bowl for the tea shopkeeper, and after drinking half a bowl of goodong, he asked the tea shopkeeper: "Shopkeeper, where is this place going further?" How long does it take to get from here to Nanyang Province? ”

The tea shopkeeper thought for a moment and said, "It turns out that this son is going to Nanyang Mansion, which is a bit far, at least there are more than two hundred miles to go." If you go further from here, you will go to White Turtle Mountain. ”

"White Turtle Mountain?" Lu Yi suddenly asked suspiciously, "Shopkeeper, isn't this road an official road?" How did you get to this White Turtle Mountain? ”

The shopkeeper sighed and said: "This road is an official road, but if you want to go to Nanyang Mansion from here, you really have to cross this White Turtle Mountain." It's nothing if it's usual, but it's just that the White Turtle Mountain has been very unpeaceful recently! I advised Childe not to go. ”

"It's not peaceful?" Lu Yi was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help asking, "What?" Could it be that there are mountain bandits gathering on this White Turtle Mountain to make trouble? ”

The shopkeeper smiled bitterly and said, "Which mountain has not had bandits in this year?" It's okay if it's just like this, but I heard that a new leader has recently come to this White Turtle Mountain, not only blocking the road and robbing all kinds of evil, but even robbing people's girls and **** kidnapping, it's just ......"

As he was talking, he suddenly heard crying on the bridge, and then heard a "poof", Lu Yi was suddenly startled, and the shopkeeper shook his head and sighed: "Alas, that is the daughter of Zhang Yuanwai's family in the town, another poor person who was forced to be cornered and jumped into the river to die!" ”

As soon as Lu Yi heard that someone jumped into the river to find his death, he hurriedly stretched out his hand and slapped the table, and the whole person suddenly rose in the air and swept out of the teahouse and shot towards the river.
