270. 267: Denial

At dusk, Tang Li's fleet finally saw the remote riverbank, the sunset had not yet set, the bamboo house looked a lot clearer, the royal ship was different, much faster, Tang Li's excitement in his heart became stronger and stronger, after the boat docked, she was the first to jump down, and she couldn't pull it for a hundred miles.

Lu Jiang was sitting in the courtyard drinking wine, Lu Mengyao and Nangong Jue left, turned around on this desolate land, only he was the old guy, and there was no one to talk to in the future, hearing the movement on the bank of the river, he stood up, and was very vigilant in his heart.

When he saw the clothes of those guards, Lu Jiang's first reaction was that the enemy who killed his whole family back then was here, and now that enemy is quite an official in the capital, did he find here? Lu Jiang's hand was clenched tightly, if it was him, then fight to the death!

Seeing someone in the courtyard from a distance, Tang Li's heart was beating fast, could he be the man he saw that night? Will it be Nangong Jue?

"Do you want to die?" Tang Li's hurried footsteps were stopped by Baili Wuyang, and the others were all some distance behind Tang Li, because they didn't dare to act rashly, only Tang Li was carried away by joy, and walked forward vigorously, and Amu and they also caught up.

Tang Li turned his head to look at Baili Wuyang: "Why do you keep saying that I want to die?" ”

Does she seem to be so impatient?

Baili Wuyang pulled Tang Li back a little, but his eyes kept staring at the motionless figure in the courtyard, that person was definitely not Nangong Jue, he saw it very clearly, Nangong Jue was taller, but this person was obviously a lot shorter, and the aura exuded from his body was not right, it was very threatening.

"Miss, don't be in such a hurry!" Ah Liu pulled Tang Li's sleeve and persuaded, even she could feel that something was wrong here, why did Tang Li still rush forward?

"Isn't it just one person? Why are you so afraid? Tang Li asked in a sullen voice.

"Look over there, then." Nangong Heng's face was also a little pale, first, he was too excited, and second, his guards found an abnormality under a tree next to him, and he reminded Tang Li.

Tang Li also looked under the tree, and suddenly felt that the blood was a little coagulated, there were three corpses lying there, with hideous faces, eyes that seemed to be dead, and it seemed that they had begun to rot, there were flies flying, the strange thing was that Tang Li and they encountered so many wild wolves that time, but this time they saw that there were corpses that were not eaten, which was very strange.

"The corpses were full of poison." Baili Wuyang solved Tang Li's doubts, it should be because of the poison, so the wolves didn't dare to devour it.

"It's better to be careful." Shuo Feng cautiously reminded him in the back.

Baili Wuyang pulled Tang Li to stretch out his hand, and then walked in front by himself, walking towards the yard, Tang Li suddenly felt a little guilty and moved, no matter how Baili Wuyang is, at least he really cares about her safety, even if he will be angry and hurt her, he is just anxious, thinking of his recklessness......

Tang Li was silently embarrassed.

"Who are you?" After approaching the courtyard, the middle-aged man standing in the courtyard spoke to Baili Wuyang, that is, Lu Jiang.

Baili Wuyang looked at this man he didn't know at all, and turned his head to look at Tang Li, did Tang Li mistake this man for Nangong Jue? Isn't that a little too far?

"Uncle, we're here to find someone." Tang Li saw that although Lu Jiang was hostile, he was still a reasonable person, at least he didn't do it directly, but asked who they were first.

Lu Jiang looked at the young man in front of him, his face was cold, the light in his golden pupils was a little weird, and he couldn't see through the feelings, while the girl next to him was light and cute, and her voice was crisp and quite good, and there were several handsome men and women standing behind them, all of whom looked a little strict, but there seemed to be no malice.

Isn't it an enemy? Lu Jiang hid the doubts in his heart, but his vigilance relaxed a little, and asked, "Looking for someone?" Who are you looking for? ”

Lu Jiang's heart moved, could it be Nangong Jue that this group of people were looking for? Nangong Jue is the prince, and the men and women in front of him look either rich or noble, and they are also carrying guards, they should be royal people, he looked away slightly, and sure enough, he saw Nangong Heng with an anxious face, and he almost thought that Nangong Jue was back.

But no, the temperament of the whole person is different.

"We're looking for a man who probably looks like him-" Tang Li pulled Nangong Heng: "He looks similar to him, called Nangong Jue." ”

Sure enough, it's looking for Nangong Jue!

Lu Jiang is naturally not such a stupid person, this group of people is looking for Nangong Jue, either to find him to go back and continue to be the prince, or to kill people and kill people, it is Nangong Ze's people, but didn't Nangong Ze also disappear? I didn't hear the news that Nangong Ze had found it, so it was impossible for him not to know about such a big thing.

The person in front of him, is it Nangong Jue's person? Lu Jiang's somewhat cloudy eyes did not fluctuate at all, and said, "I have lived here alone for ten years, and no stranger has ever been here. ”

How could Lu Jiang sue Tang Li that they had stayed here in Nangong Jue and had just left? Nangong Jue is not only his pawn now, but also the son-in-law in his heart, if he has not completed any plan, he will be taken away by this group of people, if he has a camp, he may not listen to him, and Lu Jiang has a strange feeling, the girl in front of him and Nangong Jue may have a lot to do with him.

He once asked Nangong Jue, can he get married? Nangong Jue replied that he didn't know, not no, what if this girl was the woman Nangong Jue married before, what should Lu Mengyao do? Lu Jiang doesn't want his baby daughter to be a concubine!

Tang Li was a little stunned, haven't you seen it? How could it be, she obviously met Nangong Jue last time, although she didn't see that man's face clearly, but she felt that it wouldn't be wrong.

"You're alone?" Baili Wuyang's pupils were a little cold, he glanced at the courtyard, and said, "Then why are women's clothes still hanging?" ”

Drying the clothes that Lu Mengyao didn't take away in the yard, Baili Wuyang didn't believe what Lu Jiang said that a person has lived here for ten years, not to mention whether there is a Nangong Jue, at least there is a woman who is also here.

"That's my daughter's clothes, what?" Lu Jiang glanced at the clothes hanging in the courtyard, and did not deny it, and directly sued him for a hundred miles.

"Uncle, we really don't have any malicious intent, we just want to find him, and we will pay you." Tang Li explained anxiously, thinking that Lu Jiang was afraid that they would not give some benefits.

Lu Jiang shook his head: "I really haven't seen it." ”

"Uncle, didn't you really see it?" Hua Yuying saw Tang Li's face gradually turn gray, and asked anxiously, Tang Li came to Nangong Jue with such great expectations, if she wasn't there, how disappointed she should be.

"Really not," Lu Jiang still denied: "My daughter and I have always lived here, she just left here yesterday and wanted to go outside to see, and now I am alone here." ”

Lu Jiang's words were actually very suspicious, at first he said that he was the only one, but after Baili Wuyang exposed it, he said that it was two people, the most important thing is that Tang Li and Amu can be sure that the person they saw here that time was definitely not the middle-aged man in front of him, he couldn't see his face clearly, and he could always vaguely see his height, which was completely different.

"You're lying!" Ah Liu was also very distressed by Tang Li, whose face was gradually disappointed, but she shouted loudly, "You said that no one has ever been here, but a few of us came here not long ago, and there was a man who saved us, and that person is not you!" Since it's not you, prove that it's not just you and your daughter here! ”

Lu Jiang's face slowly became gloomy, there was some killing intent in his cloudy eyes, it was impossible for him to let these people disrupt his plans, whether these people were Nangong Jue's people or Nangong Ze's people, they couldn't stop him!

"And those three corpses, did you do it?" Baili Wuyang continued to ask, he could see through the abnormality of the three corpses at a glance, he used countless drugs, but it was not indiscriminate, if it wasn't for someone who was very proficient in pharmacology, he couldn't do it, that person's ability was almost catching up with him, he was curious, is there such a person in the world?

There were some simple herbs drying in the courtyard, Baili Wuyang glanced at it casually, Lu Jiang didn't speak, just stood there and confronted Tang Li and them.

Tang Li didn't come here to fight, and besides, Lu Jiang didn't make a move, and they couldn't do it either, so a group of people and a person stood like this, stalemate, and it gradually got dark.

Nangong Heng ordered people to light the torches, I heard that there are wild wolves here, they specially prepared a lot of torches, in order to drive away the wolves, besides, there are hundreds of miles here, there should be medicine to drive away the beasts, right?

"If you don't believe me, you can search for it yourself." Lu Jiang finally relented, he estimated that it took a while to let go, in order to look more credible, he let them in to check at the beginning, as if he was ready.

"Then bother." Tang Li hurriedly said a word, and gave Nangong Heng a look, Nangong waved his hand, and the guards behind rushed into the courtyard, and the dark courtyard was brightened up because of the entry of many torches.

Tang Li and Baili Wuyang glanced at each other and followed, while Shuo Feng and Hua Yuying took people to look at Lu Jiang so that he would not make any moves.

The courtyard is very small, there are a few sleeping rooms and kitchens, Tang Li walked to the room where the two living dead came out last time, she was still a little scared in her heart, but there was a hundred miles away, and she still felt more secure.

"Squeak~" The door was gently pushed open by Baili Wuyang, and he also had a torch given to him by a guard in his hand, he stretched the torch around the room, and found that the room was actually full of poisonous snakes and scorpions and other things, but they were all dead, and the table was full of some strange drugs, and even he was a little curious.

But curiosity is curiosity, after looking at it for a while, there was no one in this room, and Baili Wuyang and Tang Li had no choice but to retreat.
