Chapter 77: Coercion

But now that it has become difficult to ride a tiger, she can only move forward. Listening to the wheels outside and her head spinning rapidly, she had to think of a perfect response before she encountered the ambushes who were chasing her.

Now they are grasshoppers on a rope, and only when the people on them are good, they can be good.

After pondering for a while, Mu Xiaofeng raised his head, stared at the roof of the car, and said quickly, "For the sake of everyone, Your Excellency and Qingruo will be exchanged." ”

The man on the roof of the car was stunned, and his dark eyes flashed with interest. Let him dress as a man? In a face that no one could have imagined, he was generously revealed in front of people?

The most intuitive is often the blind spot that people tend to overlook, which is similar to the most dangerous is the safest.

It's a great idea!

He snorted silently, the corners of his lips under his mask curled with sneer, but he didn't need to grieve himself to cooperate with the idea, those people didn't dare to intercept the carriage and drive people down to inspect it openly.

Besides, before he chose the carriage that was driving in the center, he had already done some work to confuse the public.

All the thoughts flashed, and the hoarse voice that was deliberately lowered floated down, "No need, your master and servant can do it as usual." ”

So sure?

Mu Xiaofeng glanced at the roof of the car suspiciously, although she couldn't understand the key, but she believed that the person above cared more about her life than her, so she was half relieved and nodded silently in agreement.

The long and narrow alley seemed to be endless, and Qingruo was afraid and worried and repeatedly kneaded the corners of his clothes into crumples, before finally seeing the end of the alley from afar.

She was overjoyed, and her voice unconsciously showed joy, "Miss, we're almost at the end of the alley." ”

Mu Xiaofeng glanced at her and understood her state of mind that she couldn't help but be happy, but she didn't think that they could really get out of this alley so smoothly.

The carriage turned a corner, and sure enough, I heard a very impatient cold shout coming from the mouth of the alley, "Stop and check, stop and check." ”

The speed of the car slowed down, of course, he had to continue to move forward, through the curtain, Mu Xiaofeng saw that a checkpoint had been set up at the entrance of the alley, and about five or six officers and soldiers commanded the carriage to move forward with a cold and gloomy face.

In front of their carriage, two carriages had slowed down to be inspected.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I don't know why you want to check my carriage here?" A middle-aged man dressed as a scribe stepped down from the first carriage and asked the two officials who came forward to intercept him in a low and respectful manner.

One of the officers and soldiers glanced at him impatiently, "Our colleagues are chasing the prisoner, and suddenly they are missing from this alley, and we suspect that the prisoner is hiding in your carriage at this moment. ”

The scribe's face showed just the right amount of panic and understanding, and he hurriedly stepped aside, "Since you are chasing the criminals, please officials." ”

It stands to reason that for such a fair reason, the officials should have driven all the people in the carriage down and searched the carriage carefully.

But in fact, these officials with a cold and arrogant attitude did not do this, and one of them said coldly, "Lift the curtain, open all the bases, and then stand aside, let our brothers carefully inspect the carriage, and then let them go." ”

In the first carriage, apart from the scribes who had already dismounted, there was only a long-bearded old man and a servant, one of the two officials looked anxiously at the carriage, and the other stooped to inspect the bottom of the carriage.

After a while, the two exchanged a look of disappointment, and they found nothing.

One of the officials glared at the long-bearded old man with a fierce look and asked suspiciously, "Why does your car smell of blood?" ”

"The smell of blood?" The old man looked at him fearfully, and shook his head blankly, "I don't know. With that, he glanced at the official carefully, and then sniffed hard, "Does it smell bloody?" I don't think so. ”

The officers and soldiers snapped down the curtain and waved their hands viciously, "Okay, hurry up." ”

The second carriage was an old woman and a granddaughter who was less than ten years old, plus a grandmother who was forty or fifty years old.

was shouted and stared at by two officials with the same bad attitude, and heard the grandmother trembling and replied, "Official, there are no prisoners in our car, I don't believe you will check carefully." ”

The two officials cooperated to inspect it, but still found nothing, but it was also strange that there was a faint smell of blood on the carriage.

"The smell of blood?" The trembling grandmother lowered her head in fear, but her hands were fierce, "The official is clear, we don't know why there is a smell of blood in the car." ”

The voice was obviously trembling with fear.

The official frowned, and checked in the carriage for a long time, except for the frightened grandchildren, he still couldn't find a reason.

I had no choice but to wave my hand and let the carriage go.

The third carriage is where Mu Xiaofeng is.

Lifting most of the curtain, Qingruo took Mu Xiaofeng to the side, opened the base where the sundries were placed, and let the official wide-eyed in the car as usual, as usual, said: Search for criminals.

The space of the base is small, and there is no room for an adult to be hidden, not to mention that the door is wide open, and the situation inside is even clearer.

Everything looked normal, except that the smell of blood was heavier than that of the first two carriages.

"Why does this car smell so bloody?" The first official cha held the handle of the knife at his waist, frowned and looked at Mu Xiaofeng's master and servant coldly, and asked loudly when he opened his mouth.

"Bloody?" Qing Ruo slightly blocked Mu Xiaofeng behind him, glared at the official with courage, and said confidently, "Isn't it normal for a young girl's family to have a few days of special days?" ”

The official with a fierce face was reprimanded by a young girl like Qingruo, and her iron-black face actually flew up in an instant.

He glanced at the other officer who was inspecting the bottom of the car, and saw a look of disappointment in the other person's eyes.

The blushing official glanced at Qing Ruo with a complicated look, and then retreated to the side, and his fierce voice actually revealed a sneering meaning, "Let go." ”

When the carriage slowly drove through the checkpoint, the people in the car seemed to breathe a sigh of relief. Behind them, there were three carriages to be inspected, and what Mu Xiaofeng didn't know was that the three carriages behind them also had a faint smell of blood.

After passing the checkpoint, Mu Xiaofeng's hanging heart was half relieved, and he gave a thumbs up to Qingruo with a smile, "Qingruo is mighty." ”

Who knew that when Qing Ruo heard this, not only did he not see joy, but like a balloon that suddenly deflated, it deflated and softened. The body shook twice, and finally climbed the wall of the car before slowly sitting down.

Qingruo gritted her teeth, subconsciously stared at the roof of the car complainingly, and then turned white and said with a wry smile, "Miss, don't make fun of the slave." ”

Just now, she reprimanded the official errand with a heartbeat, completely puffing up in her heart, just thinking that she must not implicate Miss, and she must keep Miss safe and sound, so she didn't dare to show a little bit of weakness and fear.

Mu Xiaofeng was silent, gave her a reassuring look, and didn't speak again.

After a while, it was estimated that the carriage was far away from the alley, and she suddenly raised her voice and ordered, "Uncle He, let's take Suzaku Street." After a pause, she urged again, "Uncle He, hurry up the car." ”

Qingruo couldn't help but wonder, "Miss, why do you want to go to Suzaku Street?" "Hurry up, she understands, Miss wants to rush back home before the rainstorm.

But since you want to go home quickly, why did you let Uncle He take a big detour and walk on Suzaku Street? Isn't that tantamount to taking more detours in disguise?

Mu Xiaofeng glanced at the roof of the car out of the corner of his eye, did not explain in detail, and only said softly, "Well, Suzaku Street is spacious and crowded, and the road is easy to walk." ”

Qingruo's eyes lit up, thought about it, and spontaneously interpreted this to mean that the young lady was worried that she would encounter trouble again when she took the small road, so she would rather take a detour and take the avenue.

It's all to blame for the person on the roof of the car, and the young lady is so cautious.

The crisis has been removed, and thinking that the person is still pressing on top of his head, Qingruo feels uncomfortable. She squinted her eyes and pouted at Mu Xiaofeng, meaning something, "Miss? ”

Mu Xiaofeng didn't know where she was careful, and looked sideways at the outside, before replying with a smile, "No hurry." ”

She was worried that their most normal-looking carriage would end up being the one that the pretending officials had been most suspicious of.

If her guess was correct, the checkpoint of this alley should have been removed, and then those fake officials would be suspicious of them when they thought about it carefully, and it wouldn't be long before they came after them.

She asked Uncle He to hurry up the car, not just to avoid the rain, but more importantly, not to let the fake officials behind have a chance to catch up with them.

But she naturally wouldn't say this to Qing Ruoming.

Qingruo quieted down, although she didn't understand why the young lady still let the person stay on the roof of the car, but the young lady said that she was not in a hurry, and naturally the young lady considered it.

She frowned and thought about it, and suddenly thought of a question, the young lady changed her mind and asked Uncle He to take a detour to Suzaku Street, could it be because of the person above?

It stands to reason that they passed the checkpoint and left the alley and entered the avenue, which would be crowded with people, so it should be very safe, why didn't the young lady walk with the people above?

Don't...... Are they still in danger?

Thinking of this, Qing Ruo suddenly became nervous again. She immediately widened her eyes and looked left and right, and at this look, she seemed to really feel that someone was following and watching everywhere she looked.

Mu Xiaofeng saw her nervous appearance, and couldn't help but smile dumbly.

Even if the danger is still there, this girl doesn't need to be so nervous.

Besides, even if those fake officials suspect that they have discovered them, it will not be easy to kill them openly. Otherwise, why bother to set up a checkpoint at the entrance of the alley just now, thinking that they are afraid of attracting the attention of others.

The identity of the person on the roof of the car is not simple.

Mu Xiaofeng sighed silently in his heart, and thought about it, as long as they arrived at Suzaku Street and then got the person above out of the car, they would be able to really get rid of their troubles and return home safely.

The idea is beautiful, but the reality is often cruel.

I have to say that Mu Xiaofeng's inferences are often accurate to the point of not leaving ten. Not far behind them, the anxious fake officials really dispersed into the crowd looking for a needle in a haystack, trying to fish out their most suspicious car
