Chapter 148: The Land of the Red Clan
"It's getting dark, why hasn't it arrived yet?"
Xie Jiao looked at the sky outside and muttered. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
"Miss Xie, it's almost there. The minion just heard what Ah Sang said to Master Xie. ”
Ngawang replied.
"You can hear it so far away? Ngawang boy, you have grown up! ”
Xie Jiao moved to the door of the carriage and patted Ngawang on the shoulder.
"Hehe, Miss Xie praised it falsely, the slave is far from Miss Xie!"
Ngawang grinned.
Xie Jiao returns to Beijing with Xie Rui every year, and after Xie Jiao returns to Beijing, she likes to go to Gu Xuan to play, so she is more familiar with Ah Wang.
"Hey, the carriage in front of you has stopped."
Xie Jiao was about to say a few words, but saw that the carriage in front of her had stopped.
Ngawang also hurried to catch up.
Xie Jiao jumped out of the carriage at once.
This afternoon, it can make her panic.
"Dad, are you here?"
Xie Jiao ran to Xie Cheng and looked at the deserted mountain in front of her.
"Hmm."
Xie Cheng nodded.
"Dad, it looks so scary here, are you sure the Red Clan used to live in this place?"
Xie Jiao was a little incredulous.
Now that it was getting dark, there were lanterns hanging on their carriages, and the two servants on Ngawang and Xie Cheng's side were also holding torches, but there were only a limited number of places where this light could shine.
It's summer again, and the trees are chirping and insects chirping.
"yes, sure."
Xie Cheng replied simply.
"Master Xie, let's live in the mountains tonight?"
Gu Xuan stepped forward and frowned.
In his impression, the place of the Red Clan should not be like this!
If you say that you live in a stone cave, it should be a flat place, not a mountain!
"We're going to get there after this mountain, let's go!"
Xie Cheng said lightly.
Ah Sang first led the servants and Ngawang to tie the carriage to a large tree on the outskirts of the forest, and then walked into the forest with torches.
I didn't say a word the whole time.
Gu Xuan took Shen Qiao's hand and said, "Qiaoqiao, are you afraid?" If we're afraid, we'll just wait here, or let Ngawang catch us back." ”
As soon as he said this, the people who walked in front stopped.
"It's okay, since we're here, let's go. I brought the sachet made by my former mother, did you bring it? ”
Shen Qiao shook his head and said with a smile.
She saw Xie Cheng's unchanged expression and became a little anxious, and she laughed in her heart, this Lord Xie deliberately dragged them into the pit.
Originally, they came here to inquire about Jin Yu's family, but who knows, Jin Yu has returned.
Then I don't know why, they followed Xie Cheng to the side of the Red Clan.
Maybe it was because of her curiosity, Gu Xuan was attached to him, so she didn't mention that Jin Yu had found something that they could go back after completing their mission.
Now that he has come here, if he goes back, Xie Cheng will definitely curse in his heart.
"I brought it, the sachet made by my aunt to repel mosquitoes is very effective, and it can also calm my nerves, I take it with me when I go out."
Gu Xuan said and took out a sachet from his arms that was similar to the one Shen Qiao was carrying on his waist and showed it to Shen Qiao.
"Then let's go!"
Shen Qiao nodded, shook Gu Xuan's hand, and said.
So, the two followed, and Ngawang dragged Chen Qiang to the end.
Xie Cheng didn't say anything when they saw this, turned around and continued to leave.
The Baiyi guy named Ahsan is very familiar with this mountain, and the road is basically flat along the way.
It didn't take long to walk out of this forest.
Because it was night, Shen Qiao couldn't find his direction at all.
"Brother Asan, I remember that there is a mountain behind the Red Clan's stone cave, can you take us there?"
After leaving the forest, Xie Cheng said.
"Hmm."
Ahsan nodded sullenly.
I don't know if it was intentional or unintentional, Shen Qiao found that that Ah Sang actually glanced at Chen Qiang.
Is it also known?
Chen Qiang's body was tied by a rope, Ah Wang kept holding a rope, and he was not afraid that Chen Qiang would escape, Shen Qiao didn't have time to see if Chen Qiang looked at Ah San, and Ah Sang walked forward directly.
"Ngawang, you go ahead."
Shen Qiao pulled Gu Xuan and gave Ah Wang and Chen Qiang a way.
"Okay, Miss Shen."
Ngawang nodded.
Then he kicked Chen Qiang and told him to walk over quickly, and then bypassed Shen Qiao and Gu Xuan and walked to the front.
"What's going on?"
Gu Xuan asked in a puzzled whisper.
"I found that Ah Sang and Chen Qiang seemed to know each other. And, I think something is going to happen tonight. ”
Shen Qiao replied in a low voice.
"So do you think it's a good thing or a bad thing?"
Gu Xuan didn't have any doubts about Shen Qiao's words.
From the time he knew Shen Qiao, basically when Shen Qiao said that something would happen, something would definitely happen.
It used to be almost all dead people.
I don't know what to expect tonight.
"I can't tell, it's just the feeling. I think there's something wrong with that Ahsan. Gu Xuan, you stared at him carefully for a while. ”
Shen Qiao replied in a low voice.
"yes, okay."
Gu Xuan clenched Shen Qiao's hand, glanced at Ah San, who was walking in the forefront, and said.
The two stopped talking and continued with the group.
The two of them walked in a bunch, Xie Cheng and his son walked in a bunch, and then two officials followed behind Ah Sang.
It's pitch black, and you can't see very clearly what is around.
But a cliff in front of it was faintly visible.
Shen Qiao listened to the sounds around him as he walked.
She always felt that there were people around here.
It's not just their group, it's other people.
Could it be that the Red people are back?
Before, Xie Cheng only said that the people of the Red Clan had disappeared, but he didn't say that they were all dead.
Moreover, the mural in the stone room of the secret passage, the content painted on it shows that there are at least seven or eight living Red people.
Where have they gone?
Is it hidden in the caves in these mountains?
"Is this it?"
Ah Sang stopped at the entrance of a cave, and Xie Cheng asked the official to hold a torch and look at it, and then asked.
"I only know two places, the Red Clan usually don't like outsiders coming to their territory."
Ahsan replied.
"Where else is this?"
Xie Cheng asked.
"There's another one halfway up the mountain. I also found out about it in the last half a year or so because the people of the Red Clan are gone. Where are the adults going? ”
Ahsan replied with a blank face.
"I'm not going anywhere, I'm just looking. Okay, take me to the cave where the Red Patriarch lives! ”
Xie Cheng glanced at Ah Sang and said.
Ah Sang was stunned for a moment, then reacted, stretched out his hand and pointed in the direction, and said, "Over there, my lord, please come with me." ”
With that, he walked forward with his torch.
The rest of the people followed.
Shen Qiao and Gu Xuan still walked last.
It's just that after Chen Qiang walked a few steps, he glanced back.
Shen Qiao couldn't figure out what he was looking at, so he also glanced back.
