Chapter 80: Spies
The carriage stopped suddenly, and I suddenly opened my eyes when I closed my eyes and was drowsy, and saw the red leaves quickly flashing out of the carriage, and said in a loud voice: "Which friend has been following us, will you show up?" ”
I was taken aback, and suddenly came to my senses. Could it be that someone from the Hou Mansion has found me? Did the Stygian Flame finally notice something strange about the carriage? There was no sound outside, only Momiji said in a cold voice: "Sneakily following us for so long, thinking that if you don't come out, this girl can't do anything about you?" As soon as the words fell, only the sound of breaking the sky was heard, and there seemed to be the sound of the wind and the leaves swaying, and then the sound of swords, and after a while, only the red leaves sneered: "What are you doing with us?" ”
"Joke! This road is your home? Are you going? I can't go? Another woman's voice sounded outside the carriage, and I listened carefully, and felt that it was somewhat familiar, as if I had heard it somewhere. Then there was a "whirring" fight, and after a while, I heard a cracking sound, and then Momiji's voice was a little surprised: "It turned out to be you, you are really not an ordinary person!" ”
"Momiji Girl is not an ordinary person! Otherwise, how dare you arrest Mrs. Yun of the Yongle Hou Mansion? "I was surprised and happy in my heart, surprised that it was not the people from the Hou Mansion who found me, but happy that the person knew my identity, this thought, I only felt that the woman's voice was more and more familiar to me, and I searched carefully in my mind, and suddenly remembered that this was the voice of the seventh girl in Xiaoqinglou. Seven girls know Momiji? Could it be that Hongye also bought information from Xiaoqinglou? Probably not, it's not easy for a foreign country like Momiji to take deep roots, their purpose is very strong, and they won't casually do things that might expose their identity.
"Nonsense! Now that you know, I can't keep you! Hongye said coldly, "Yuzhu, today you are looking for your own death, no wonder this girl!" ”
Yuzhu? Was I taken aback? The seventh girl who is the shopkeeper of the main store in the capital of Xiaoqinglou turned out to be Yuzhu? The first Oiran who leaned on the Red Mansion back then? I...... Did I hear me right? Outside the carriage, there was the sound of Ding Ding Dangdang's swords striking each other, but my mind was like a mess, carefully recalling the figure and demeanor of the seventh girl, and then overlapping her with the appearance of the Yuzhu girl back then, the more I thought about it, the more I felt similar, but when I went to Xiaoqing Building to see the seventh girl, I really didn't hear her voice, and I and Yuzhu in Yihong Mansion didn't say more than ten words together, and I really didn't have much impression of her voice. However, Yuzhu is a person from Xiaoqing Building, why is he lurking in Yihong Mansion? Gather intelligence? I suddenly knew in my heart that this was the case, and it was said that Xiaoqinglou would do everything to collect intelligence. I suddenly remembered that I had smiled at the emperor back then, whether I had installed zongzi in the Red Mansion, so that I knew so clearly what was happening around me. Now that I think about it, this zongzi will definitely not be the red leaves of the Red Country, it should be Yuzhu, the branch manager of Xiaoqinglou. Yuzhu is the emperor's zongzi, so Xiaoqinglou, is it the emperor's intelligence agency? I gasped, and the more I thought about it, the more I felt that it was not impossible, which emperor of a dynasty did not have his own intelligence agency, but it was the first time I had heard of such a blatant way to make money under the cover of Jianghu sects. What kind of vortex am I caught in? Unexpectedly, the two Oirans who leaned on the Red Mansion back then were intelligence officers of two countries. Thinking that King Jing lost power, I still interceded for Yuzhu, how could there be anything with her identity? I'm afraid that marrying King Jing as a concubine is also instructed by the emperor, right? I'm just now realizing how ridiculous I am!
The sound of the fight outside the carriage became more and more intense, and I couldn't move, but I only listened to the screams of the coachman outside the carriage, and then the angry shouts of Momiji, and the sound of swords striking each other became shorter and shorter. I was guessing that the coachman had probably been dealt with by Yuzhu, only to hear Yuzhu exclaim: "Myojin Imperial Sword Flow? Are you from Hongyue? ”
Momiji didn't answer, only heard the sound of more and more fierce fights, the wind whistled outside the carriage, and the fierce murderous aura was overwhelming, and even I felt a slight chill when I was lying in the carriage. After only listening to a few crisp sounds of "dangdang", I heard Yuzhu say: "This girl has no time to play with you today, say goodbye!" ”
Her voice went from near to far, and the outside of the carriage suddenly fell silent, and then, I heard a "boom" sound piercing the night sky, bursting in the sky, like the sound of a signal flare, and then Momiji sneered: "Only now do you know how to run?" It's late, this girl will let you taste the taste of being chased by the Myojin ninja, I see how far you can run! ”
The curtain of the car was opened, and there was still a little murderous aura in Hongye's eyes, she glanced at me, saw me staring at her, and said lightly: "I didn't think that my sister still had a connection with Yuzhu." My sister don't stare at me, even if she finds out about you, she can't save you, she can't protect herself now, and she doesn't know if she can live to see the sun tomorrow, this is the end of nosy. With that, she jumped on the front of the car and picked up the reins. The coachman died, and it seems that Momiji has to drive himself. I watched as the curtain was lowered again, keeping her background out of the curtain, and I felt a cold sweat on my forehead.
The carriage started running fast again, and the speed was much faster than just now, and it seemed that Momiji had been spotted and was worried that things would change, so he wanted to rush back to Longgang as soon as possible. I was shocked by the accident just now, it seems that Hongye didn't know that Yuzhu was the shopkeeper of Xiaoqinglou, so why did Yuzhu follow Hongye? Also to gather intelligence? Whose intel is it collecting? I took a long breath and stabilized my emotions, and my heart was as clear as a mirror, in short, it would not be to collect information about the red leaves, because from the analysis of the conversation I heard between them just now, Yuzhu didn't know that the red leaves were the identity of the red people, so after knowing her identity, I was taken aback, and immediately realized that this matter was not so simple, and I no longer fought with the red leaves, but I wanted to go back and report this big secret to the emperor, right? After all, it was a big deal for the imperial court to find out that the Tiancao Kingdom had mixed into the annihilation of the Red Yue Kingdom, so even if her purpose was to follow me before, she had to let go for the time being. So, she should have secretly followed me when I was kidnapped by Young Rong? This feeling of being spied on in the dark is really ...... I couldn't help but smile bitterly, Your Majesty, Your Majesty, I have retreated to the point where I have almost exhausted the Yun family's business in the country, are you still not at ease with the Yun family?
It's okay, in this way, if I am taken away by someone and who kidnaps me, there will always be someone who knows a letter, and it will spread to the ears of the Yun family after a long time. I wonder if Yuzhu can successfully escape? Momiji said that she would be hunted down by some Myojin ninja, and she didn't know how powerful that Myojin ninja was, so if Yuzhu could deal with it? It seems that there are more than one or two Hongyue countries in the Tiancao Kingdom, and there are a group of people in Hongye who are helping her complete the plan. Myojin Ninja ...... My brows furrowed, and I suddenly remembered the black-clothed people who chased and killed Stygian Flame and Mo Xiuqi back then, didn't Yun Kun say that they seemed to be ninjas from the Red Flame Country? Are they also related to autumn leaves? A vague fragment floated in my heart, back then, the master and servant of the Stygian Flame were chased and killed by the men in black, and then there was no news of those men in black, if it was indeed the ninjas of the Red Kingdom who were chasing them, why chase and kill them? And why don't you do it again? Could it be that he is afraid of the Yun family's power? I pouted self-deprecatingly, I was afraid that it might not be, otherwise I would not have fallen into their hands today.
If those black-clothed ninjas were going for the Stygian Flame, and Momiji was in collusion with those ninjas, then her motive for appearing in front of me later was not pure. I haven't forgotten that Momiji showed great interest in him when she first saw him, and I haven't forgotten that Stygian Flame complained to me that she wasn't a good woman. I smiled bitterly in my heart, Dark Flame, you were really right, Momiji was indeed not at ease, only to blame me for not listening to your words in the first place. I carefully recalled the fragment of Momiji coming to me every time, but there was nothing unusual, the only strange thing was that he gave a sachet to Stygian, and Stygian gave it to Ansheng, and then Ansheng disappeared...... I was shocked! If I hadn't been spotted in my dumb hole, I would have screamed. That's right, Momiji's target has always been the Stygian Flame, although the reason why she gave the sachet to the Stygian Flame is not clear, but there must be something strange about the sachet, An Sheng must have disappeared because of that sachet, if it wasn't for the Stygian Flame who gave the sachet to Ansheng, the missing person would only be the Stygian Flame! I took a hard breath, so to speak, Ansheng's disappearance is related to Momiji? Did they find out that they had caught the wrong person? Will it be bad for Ansheng? Will Ansheng have ...... I can't think about it anymore, my heart is full of anger and fear, Ansheng is such a lovely child, if he was really killed by Momiji, I will never forgive her, I will never let her go!
I bit my lip and took a deep breath, trying to calm my anger. Thinking about it carefully, I became suspicious again, if Momiji's target is the Stygian Flame, why don't you just go to the Stygian Flame and take the trouble to catch me? With her skills, although it may not be possible to force the Dark Flame, it is not without a chance, not to mention that she is still full of intrigues. After thinking about it for a long time, I really couldn't figure it out, and my head throbbed instead, so I quickly stopped thinking nonsense, and it seemed that I was looking forward to the next time when Momiji solved the acupoints for me, so that I could verify whether those guesses were wrong. My brain was groggy, and I was awake for a while, and then I fell asleep in a daze, and it was only when the carriage suddenly and violently jerked that I was completely awakened. I opened my eyes and saw the sunlight streaming through the cracks in the closed curtain of the carriage door, and I thought it was already dawn. There was some hustle and bustle outside the carriage, and I was shocked, could it be that I had arrived back to Longgang?
The door curtain was opened, Momiji hurried away overnight, with a few bloodshots in his eyes, seeing me staring at her in horror, Momiji smiled, turned his head and said, "Carry her out." ”
A man dressed as a fisherman carried me out of the carriage, and I was even more terrified when I saw that Momiji was surrounded by nearly ten men dressed as fishermen, who had obviously come to pick up Momiji. Raise your eyes and see that there is really an endless sea in front of you, in front of you is a port that does not look like a port at all, it seems that this ancient port is not as prosperous as a modern wharf at all, even if it is a business trip to the sea to do business in the country of Hongyue, it is good to be able to run back and forth once a year. It's the end of the first month, it's cold, the fishermen usually don't go to sea, and the most parked on the sea in the distance are the fishermen's fishing boats, among which there is only one larger merchant ship, which is a bit of a voyage to the sea. Under the wharf were three small wooden boats with black canopies, presumably used to ferry people to merchant ships. It was early in the morning, and because the fishermen did not go out to sea, there were not many people on the wharf, only a few women who were mending their nets and some small children who were collecting shells on the beach. When they saw the carriage coming, the women and the children who were collecting shells looked curiously at this direction. Before I could see what was happening in front of me, Momiji wrapped a cloak around me, covering my head and blocking my vision. Momiji quietly ordered: "Carry her on the ferry." ”
I panicked and wanted to struggle, but I still didn't have the strength to carry me, and the man who carried me on my back immediately carried me to the pier, and I heard those men walking towards the pier around me, anxious and afraid, seeing that the causeway of the pier was about to come to an end, I suddenly heard a dull sound of horses' hooves on the other side of the beach, and there was a commotion on the pier, and I heard Momiji calmly whisper an order: "Leave them alone, get on the ferry." ”
The man carried me into the canopy ferry that was parked under the pier, and Momiji stepped on it, and the other men got on several other ferries. After getting on the boat, the man put me down and asked me to recline in the cabin, my head was leaning against the window of the cabin, I tried my best, leaning the weight of my body to the side of the cabin, my face was facing the window, and I took the opportunity to look at the beach, when I saw those familiar figures on the beach, my heart was about to jump out, An Yuanxi? It's An Yuanxi!
"Sail!" Momiji immediately ordered the man to hold the boat. My eyes widened, staring at An Yuanxi and Tie Wei on the shore, they were looking around, as if they were looking for someone. I bit my lip, An Yuanxi, I'm here, I'm here, please look here, please look at it.
However, he could not hear the anxious cry of my heart, and the canopy ferry slowly propped up from the dock and rowed towards the large merchant ship on the sea.
