Chapter 1: Jade Picking

Next Chapter

Under the black curtain of cold wind and rain, thunder accompanied by a few flashes of lightning in the night sky passed through the sky, and from time to time, more than a dozen horses galloped quickly on the dark official road in the suburbs of Beijing. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Relying entirely on the familiarity of the road conditions on weekdays, the six horses ran through a certain stretch of road, and the Jinyi Wei Liancheng, who was the leader, drove the horses into a small road next to the official road, and Captain Lin, who was following closely on the side of the Liancheng horse, shouted at him and asked:

"Lord Hyaknohe! Are you sure Senho-sama really put a flare around here? ”

Thousands of households are jade, one of the thousands of households under the jurisdiction of the North Town Fusi under the jurisdiction of the Jinyi Wei of the Chu State, and it is five products.

Hundreds of households are connected to the city, belonging to one hundred households in the north town where Yushi is located, and it is six products.

As soon as Lian Cheng heard the lieutenant under his command ask like this, he immediately became angry when he didn't know anything in his heart:

"What are you yelling about! If you run any further, you'll find out! ”

After being angrily reprimanded by Liancheng, Captain Lin didn't dare to make a sound at the moment, and the remaining four brocade guards who were with him also understood that Liancheng would be anxious because of the sudden release of the emergency purple star signal flare by Yushi, and his mood was extremely bad, so it was better for them to close their mouths tighter together, so as not to be scolded inexplicably like Captain Lin.

Riding a horse all the way from the capital of Chu to the outskirts of Beijing, the rain of Nuoda drenched a group of six people like a chicken in soup, unable to hold a torch in the rain, and because of the hurry, Mo said that he had not prepared a cowhide lantern that was not afraid of getting wet, and the six people did not wear rainproof clothes and hats.

On a rainy night, his vision was a little darker than the usual night, and it was difficult to make out his fingers, but fortunately, Liancheng had always remembered the direction he had seen the purple star flare from inside the city.

The group rode along the trail to a wilderness, a place that was no stranger to Liancheng, and he had come at night before to take on a case, but it was not cold and rainy, and there were torches to illuminate it, so he walked effortlessly.

But this is the worst-case scenario.

Thunder and lightning, violent storms, Liancheng looked at the dim wilderness that was difficult to see, and his heart was so anxious that he was about to cry.

Captain Lin and the remaining four people were also in a hurry, and when they slammed the reins on the reins in Liancheng to stop the horses, and said that their Qianhu Lord might be in this place, the five of them scattered with Liancheng and began to shout together.

But after a quarter of an hour, they ran almost all around the field, and found not a single figure, except for the rustling of rain, the sound of the rushing wind, and a few lightning bolts and thunderclaps.

There were no torches, no moonlight, and Liancheng and the other five could only see the brief moment by the light of lightning that occasionally split through the rainy sky.

Suddenly, a bolt of lightning struck, and at the edge of the wilderness, next to a large boulder, Liancheng saw a vague figure sitting with his back against the boulder.

After all, he had been with Yu Shi for about a year, Lian Cheng hurriedly walked towards the big stone, and as soon as he approached, he didn't have to squat down to take a closer look, he already recognized the figure as the Yu Shi he was looking for.

Lian Cheng hurriedly squatted down in front of Yu Shi and called urgently:

"My lord! Wake up, adults! Adult ......"

The other five people who heard Liancheng's call also rushed to Liancheng's side, and they were all shocked when they saw that Yu Shi was actually leaning on the boulder and unconscious.

Liancheng called Yu Shi a few times and saw no movement, so he recruited Lin Xiaowei to squat, and the two of them helped Yu Shi up one left and one right, just when Lian Cheng just wanted to open his mouth and let people drive the horses over, there was a sound of carriage rolling wheels on the road when they came.

Liancheng looked at the source of the sound, only to see two cowhide lanterns hanging in front of the carriage, two rays of light that swayed slightly as the carriage walked.

Captain Lin said worriedly: "Who is here?" It can't be the opposite, right? ”

The thousand households of their Beizhen First Guard were unconscious in this wilderness on the outskirts of Beijing for unknown reasons, which was a strange and worrying thing, if they still came to their opponent in Beizhen at this time, then what should they do?

What Captain Lin thought of, Lian Cheng naturally thought of, and made a decision while the carriage had not arrived in front of them, and said to Captain Lin in a deep voice:

"You take the two of you to send the Thousand Households back to the Jade Mansion safely! The other two will come with me for a while! ”

Listening to Liancheng's instructions to deliberately lower his voice, Captain Lin and the others had no opinion, and they all felt that this was the best decision to send Yushi back to the Jade Mansion in the city safely first, but Captain Lin had other ideas about blocking people.

Captain Lin pushed the jade pick towards Liancheng, and the unconscious jade pick immediately fell into Liancheng's arms, Liancheng didn't expect that Captain Lin would have such a move, and hurriedly caught the jade pick, and couldn't help but reprimand angrily:

"What the fuck are you doing!"

Unexpectedly, Liancheng looked at it, and saw that Captain Lin had quickly run forward with two brocade guards, and met the carriage that was about two feet away from them.

The two people who stayed on the left and right sides of Liancheng said: "Lord Baihu, let's quickly bring Lord Qianhu back to the city first!" ”

At this point, Lian Cheng didn't have much to say, and seeing one of the two riding a horse, he hurriedly moved and wanted to pick up Yu Shi on horseback.

However, at this moment, a voice that was not unfamiliar came into Liancheng's ears:

"Put down the jade pick!"

The voice was light and deep, as if it contained a thin anger, and with the invasion of the storm, it reached the ears of Liancheng and the two brocade guards on Liancheng's side.

Before Liancheng could react, he still maintained the action of picking up the jade pick, and felt a figure dangling in front of him, the figure was extremely fast, but in the blink of an eye, the jade pick in his hand was gone.

Liancheng recovered from his surprise, and tried to widen his eyes that were almost unable to open the rain, and said:

"Big, Adult......"

The figure stopped and turned around, and Yu Shi was stopped by him and hugged in his arms, and in the wind and rain, he only felt that the cloak connected with the black curtain wrapped the unconscious Yu Shi tightly, and he didn't get rained at all.

The figure didn't make a sound, only stopped and turned its face half sideways, apparently deliberately stopping after hearing Liancheng's call to see if Liancheng had anything else to say.

Seeing the meaning of the figure, Liancheng hurriedly stepped forward, knelt down and said respectfully:

"I don't know if the commander has arrived! Humble duty is far away! Please don't be surprised! ”

Luo Gong, the commander of the Jinyi Guard, is the third product, the supreme commander of all the Jinyi Guards, and has always been an existence that Liancheng does not dare to look at directly.

Luo Gong didn't say anything after listening to Liancheng's words, and just walked away.

Luo Gong was flanked on the left and right by two pro-soldiers and brocade guards, one holding an oilcloth umbrella for him, and the other carrying a cowhide lantern to lead the way.

The two of them were silent and respectful, just like the five Lieutenants Lin who knelt in front of and behind Liancheng.

Luo Gong quickly hugged Yu Shi and got into the carriage, and before the carriage set off, Lian Cheng, Lin Xiaowei and other six people heard Luo Gong's voice from the carriage:

"If you can find the jade pick in time tonight, this seat will give you a credit."

The voice was light and faint, but mixed in with the sound of wind and rain, Liancheng heard it very clearly, and it burrowed into his ears without a word, buzzing in his head to digest it.
