"Let's go check it out."

Rong Xi proposed, after all, they had already come here, and it would be a pity to go back like this, so it would be better to go to that room and have a look.

There was no hope in the hearts of several people, and if there was a house in such an open place, but there was no light, it was probably an abandoned house.

"The house looks like it's occupied."

The door was unlocked, half-open, Rong Xi squeaked open with a light push, and a small animal that I didn't know what kind of thing ran in, and when I heard the sound, I immediately ran away, and I couldn't see it clearly.

The house was in a mess, but they saw that there was still some food there, and it was obvious that there were still people in the daytime, not to mention that everything in the house was clean, and there were no cobwebs or dust.

Smear found the oil lamp, and Yong-hee lit it with a fire box.

Seeing the things in the house clearly, Mu Guichen ordered: "Go around and see if there is anything else." ”

"Yes."

Everyone scattered, and Rong Xi and Mu Guichen still stayed in the house to check the situation in the house.

"Lord Wang!"

As soon as Mu Guichen sent them out, he heard a call from outside.

The two hurriedly strode outside the house, squatted down to inspect the body of the county magistrate by the help of the oil lamp.

"It's a prefectural order!"

They had seen the appearance of the county order, after all, they had been by Qianyu's side for so long, how could they not have seen it.

"This person is a county magistrate?"

Holding an oil lamp, Rong Xi was unable to move, and added a skirt.

Seeing this, Mu Guichen took the oil lamp, held the oil lamp to the county magistrate and looked at it, there was an oil lamp illuminating, and they were even more sure that this person was the county magistrate.

They worked hard to find this place, but the person they were looking for died.

"Who killed him?"

Rong Xi said with annoyance, if they didn't delay on the road, they wouldn't be preempted by others, and in the end, she still dragged them down.

"Search around for anything."

Mu Guichen said calmly, he really wanted to see something from the county order, but he was not a fool.

When King Qingjiang left, he tidied up all around, and now they are looking for it, but they can't find it.

I searched around, but there was no result.

The crowd shook their heads with their heads bowed.

"Let's take him back first."

Getting up, Mu Guichen blew out the oil lamp and put it back into the house, and reluctantly took the lantern to illuminate it.

"Yes, let's take him back and let him check it, maybe there are any clues."

The clue of the county order is broken, and they can only go back and find another way to find the truth.

It's just that the death of the county order, they can't figure out who it will be, the biggest possibility is the person behind the embankment incident, and King Qingjiang is the first person to seriously suspect it.

But now that the king of Qingjiang is still in the city, he can't be sure if it's him.

At this time, when everyone was about to go back, they unexpectedly saw another wave of people in the rape field.

"Someone!"

The moment Mu Guichen saw a person appear in the rape field, he subconsciously protected Rong Xi tightly in his arms.

"Heh......"

Rong Xi looked up at him, and his heartbeat accelerated unconsciously.

"Be careful!"

Protecting her behind him, Mu Guichen only cared about this group of gangsters who suddenly appeared in his eyes, and he didn't notice that his movements inadvertently tugged at Rong Xi's heartstrings.

Rong Xi's breathing was so chaotic, and his head was like a mess of paste.

Sometimes, just a subtle movement, women will look at it in their eyes and attach great importance to it.

Except for Rong Xi, the rest of the people quickly became entangled with this group of gangsters, Rong Xi saw the burden left by the gangsters, and couldn't be distracted to look at the burden, she hurriedly ran over, opened the baggage, and took a look.

"Silver?"

Rong Xi looked at the full silver in the baggage and was stunned for a moment, then flipped through it, and found a jade pendant in the baggage, and there was a small word on it, the night was too dark, and I couldn't see what the word was.

When she was about to see clearly, the group of gangsters broke free from the entanglement, and seeing that they were about to be caught, their target was on Rong Xi.

Rong Xi had his back to them, and there was no one around him to protect him, so he was the best target.

"Ahh

The gangster grabbed her by the collar and pulled it hard to his side, and the knife threatened to put it on Rong Xi's neck.

The jade pendant in his hand slipped and fell into the rape flower field.

"Who are you?"

Seeing that Rong Xi was arrested, the group of gangsters quickly gathered together and gained confidence.

Mu Guichen asked word by word with his sword, glanced at the burden on the side, and found that it was actually silver taels.

"We're just a bunch of bandits, and we don't want to kill!"

Grabbing Rong Xi, the gangster saw Mu Guichen take a step forward, and was so anxious that he put the knife closer, and Rong Xi already had a faint knife mark on his neck.

"Bandits?"

Mu Guichen couldn't help but laugh when he heard this excuse.

He couldn't believe such a low-level excuse, this group of people just came to cover people's ears and make them think that the county order was killed by bandits, and everything was just ordinary robbery and killing.

Not to mention Mu Guichen, in such a critical period now, Rong Xi can't believe the words of this group of gangsters.

But in order to get out, she had to accompany them to act.

"Big brother, I'm innocent, what are you holding me for?"

Rong Xi said helplessly, spread her hands, as soon as she said this, Mu Guichen tacitly knew what she was going to do next.

"Whoever told you to chase us, hurry, take out all your money, look at your outfit, you should be quite rich."

The gangsters began to threaten them.

"We didn't ......"

As soon as Rong Xi spoke, she felt a lot of pain in her neck, and the gangster actually moved the knife again, cutting her skin.

"Shut up and hurry! Take out the money, and I'll let her go, or you'll wait to see her die!" ”

said arrogantly, the group of people caught Rong Xi, and they were even more embarrassed.

But as everyone knows, their actions completely angered Mu Guichen, and Mu Guichen laughed coldly.

"Hmph, I can't help myself."

Just before the gangsters could react to Mu Guichen's words, Mu Guichen had already rushed over.

"Don't come here!"

It seemed that Mu Guichen would rush over directly, not caring about Rong Xi's life or death at all, and several people were stunned.

His speed was very fast, one step faster than this group of gangsters, but it was a pity that Rong Xi was pinched by them, even if he left again, the knives of this group of gangsters were always tightly pressed against Rong Xi's neck, and he didn't give him half time to sneak attack.

"You dare! I'll kill her right away! ”

The gangster threatened sharply, and Mu Guichen's sword was approaching.
