A handsome young man riding a white horse, with a fragrant leaf in his mouth, leisurely and comfortably looking at the scenery along the way, his eyes swept over the delicate girl walking side by side with him from time to time, and he looked at the girl's red pink and low eyebrows.
These two people are naturally the master and servant of Naluo Shaobai and Qiu'er. As soon as the matter in the state was over, Luo Shaobai took Qiu'er to Shaoyang together, and when he left, he didn't know that Huigong would win, there were so many secret guards around him, and she didn't have to worry about this kind of trivial matter.
The faceless child he picked up that day had been moved to another place, and she was not too worried about being treated by the elder of the Ghost Hand Building, Snake B, who had always been proficient in the art of disguise, and was even more obsessed with skin change and skin cutting, Luo Shaobai still remembered the ecstatic expression on his face when he saw that faceless child. As if she was worried that she would change her attention if she stayed for a second longer, she flashed out of the cabinet with the child in her arms before she could speak, and only told her to wait patiently for a few months.
Thinking of Snake B's methods, Luo Shaobai couldn't help but shake his head, when he met him, he was afraid that he would have to suffer a meal, Snake B had a high attainment in disguise, but this was all thanks to the inhuman means he advocated, she could guarantee that it would not die, but she could only guarantee that it would not die.
Shaoyang recently reported that the loss of the little emperor had been suppressed by the Queen Mother, but the Emperor Taishang had never left his health palace since that night, and seemed to have acquiesced to the Queen Mother's regent and no longer asked about the affairs of the court.
This Emperor Taishang seems to have only shown such a rare bit of fatherly love when facing Gong Ying, and other than that, he has never seen him care about anyone or anything. As the former king of a country, he did not have the slightest imperial spirit, but was full of a smell of cultivation.
The royal people, sure enough, one is more eccentric than the other.
"Young master, what are you thinking?"
Seeing Luo Shaobai in a daze, Qiushui beside him couldn't help but ask. As soon as they left today, it was another day, and they did not rest at all, seeing that the sun was about to go down, and if they did not find a place to live, the young master was afraid that they would have to sleep on the streets.
After Qiushui called lightly, Luo Shaobai raised his head faintly, "It's okay, Qiushui, where are you now?" ”
In order to hurry up, they walked not the way they came, although this road was not as prosperous as when they came, it was still clean, coupled with Luo Shaobai's consistent low-key style, it was smooth.
"Young Master, we have gone out of the range of the state, according to the map, further forward is Changling City, which is under the jurisdiction of Yingzhou."
Luo Shaobai nodded when she heard this, it was not early, she decided to find an inn tonight to rest first, and then continue on the road tomorrow. After a few days of traveling, even if the man could stand it, the horse could not stand it.
There are also some people who are in a hurry around, in this place where there is no village in front of the village and no shop in the back, I am afraid that they all have the same idea as Luo Shaobai, and they are patrolling the place where they are staying.
With its open terrain and pedestrians, there should be a place to stay nearby.
Sure enough, after walking forward for a while, Luo Shaobai saw an inn standing at a three-way intersection in front of him, with a lantern hanging high at the door.
Luo Shaobai and Qiushui glanced at each other, and they will sleep here tonight.
As soon as he entered the store, Luo Shaobai immediately felt an inquiring gaze in the inn projecting towards him without hesitation, and after a while, he moved away again.
Luo Shaobai gave a hint to Qiushui behind him, and sat quietly in a corner of the hall, the other party's gaze was indifferent.
There were several waves of people sitting in the lobby, Luo Shaobai glanced at it, basically they were all businessmen who were busy on the road, including women, children and the elderly, it didn't look abnormal, but there was a table in it, which particularly attracted her attention.
Fang Cai's looking gaze came from there.
I saw five people sitting around the table, all dressed as merchants, and in the middle should be their leader, who seemed to be no more than thirty years old, quite young. The rest of the men were much older than him, the eldest of whom was more than fifty years old, and was bowing his head and drinking wine while talking to the young leader with his lips, and from time to time there were people beside him.
At first glance, it looks like an ordinary businessman, and it is almost similar in language, demeanor, and movements, and if you don't look closely, you will definitely not be easily noticed.
But it is precisely this that arouses Luo Shaobai's suspicions, sometimes it is more telling to imitate it too similarly, these people seem to be chatting casually, but the tension and murderous aura hidden in the depths of their eyes have not escaped Luo Shaobai's eyes at all, and between talking and laughing, his body can't help but lean towards the middle one, Luo Shaobai can't help but squint, this is the knee-jerk reaction of people, the young leader in the middle, I am afraid that he is the person they want to protect on this trip.
After glancing for a week, Luo Shaobai faintly withdrew his gaze, there are many variables in the affairs of the rivers and lakes, and these people don't seem to be aimed at herself, since this is the case, she will not wade into troubled waters to find this trouble.
There was a lot of noise in the hall, and Luo Shaobai listened to it for a while, most of them were miscellaneous things, family business, etc., and it was difficult to arouse Luo Shaobai's interest after a while.
To say that although this inn is not big, the efficiency is indeed not low, only a few plates of small dishes ordered by Gongfu Luo Shaobai have been on the table, if in normal times, these small dishes are difficult to enter her eyes, now when she sees such dishes, she only feels extraordinarily greedy, a few days of hurrying down, she has not smelled such a fragrance for a long time.
Qiushui on the side glanced at Luo Shaobai, and couldn't help pouting, if he could listen to her hire a carriage as soon as possible and find a chef, a few dishes would be better than here, why would he suffer this crime.
Luo Shaobai knew what Qiushui was thinking, and hurriedly smiled and put a piece of the squid tofu that had just come out of the pot and put it in Qiushui's bowl.
Although Qiushui wants to make his young master comfortable, he also knows that this is an extraordinary time, and he will not play petty, plus Luo Shao is most skillful in coaxing people, after he teased him like this, Rao is anger in her heart has long disappeared.
