Chapter 11 (11)
Xu Huan said that the place where his daughter's abductors had agreed with him was next to a wooden sign marked "Nie Hu Village" in the suburbs, as long as he arrived before tomorrow. Their people are nearby, and the area is so unpopulated that anyone can spot it if they get close.
Yuexi Bridge was shocked, have the current bandits been so blatantly exposed the location of their stronghold to others? Even if you are not afraid of martial arts people, you should guard against the people of the government.
Xu Huan said that in fact, the street sign that seemed to indicate the direction did not exist before, and it was obviously newly placed on the side of the road. As for what, of course, it is to disguise the real stronghold. And this Nie Hu Village may not exist, at least there will never be such a gang of bandits in Shangzhou.
The defense of Xu Huan's house is still sufficient, when his daughter was taken away, the defense was not broken, and it is impossible to use light skills to climb over the wall and enter the house without being discovered, if you want to secretly rob the little master of the Xu family, it can only be the person who was originally working in the Xu family, or even the person around the little girl who is more trusted.
As the owner of the museum, Xu Huan does not need to stay in Xingru Guest House all the time, so he spends a lot of time at home with his daughter. And yesterday afternoon, it was precisely because there was a problem in the inn that he had to solve it himself, so he delayed for a while, but as soon as he got home, he found that his daughter was gone, and there was an extra note.
At that time, the daughter should have gone to bed a long time ago, and there would be a vigil outside the room. But the maids who kept vigil were there, but the little master disappeared inexplicably - this is no longer a question of whether or not to care about people's dereliction of duty, but to find out whether there are white-eyed wolves who collude with outsiders among them.
"The people around me are very clean, and even many of them are people who Su has rescued." For example, being helpless and selling himself to bury his father, "so I can give my little girl to them with complete confidence." β
Although Yuexiqiao wanted to say that "no one in this world can be fully trusted", in the end he only smiled wryly. Both in the past and now, she believes that there must be more good people than evil people in this world, even if they are not related to each other and are just strangers, they are still worthy of trust.
Thinking about it later, it was actually what Fu Xijing said to her. Why did he say that to her all those years ago? What exactly happened so that he would say such things to her so harshly?
She only felt her head getting heavier and heavier, and closed her eyes as she leaned against the carriage.
"Miss Yue, don't sleep." Xu Huan suddenly spoke, "Xu Mou has already deliberately asked people to drive the car slower, and he also left a mark for the people of Shui Jingxuan, delaying the time and waiting for the people of Lord Fu Xuan to come." He is most likely to send someone who knows you, and you need to be sober at all times to have a chance to contact your fellow disciples. β
That being said, she was really uncomfortable. Moreover, if the dog man had followed their carriage all the way, even the mark would have been removed, which could only be used as a consolation.
It was true that the carriage had been on the road for a long time, and although she had not been to the outskirts, it had not traveled for nearly two hours. When the driver reminded her, "I found Nie Huzhai", she was excited, and she woke up instantly, her heart was pounding, and she didn't dare to open the curtain to look out.
Xu Huan asked her to sit in it first and got out of the car by herself. Now that the time has passed, the heat has begun to dissipate, and it is easier to dissipate heat with grass and trees around.
The street sign that said "Nie Hu Village" was very low, but it was inserted on a slope, and it was uphill for them, very steep, and the carriage obviously could not go up. There is no place around that can be used as a stronghold, not even a small tea stall.
The Yuexi Bridge in the car took a deep breath, lifted the curtain and walked down. Su Huan frowned when she saw this, but she said: "What they want is me, and if they don't see me in person, they won't show up easily." β
She touched the step shake that fixed the bun, which Fu Xijing bought for her, and picked the step shake with a not so sharp tail to buy, and she couldn't stab people with her strength. Originally, I thought that if Xu Huan told her everything before leaving, she would prepare a knife in advance and stab the dog man to death when he appeared.
But she pulled it off and put it in her sleeve just in case.
Walking to Xu Huan's side, she looked up at the uphill slope in front of her, and for some reason felt that this steep slope was very weird. It's so flat all the way, even if there is a slope, it seems natural, it's really ...... It's so abrupt.
She turned to look behind, the grass was very dense, the trees were very sparse, half prosperous and half desolate, which also made her even more convinced that this matter would never have nothing to do with Fu Xijingβsuch an obvious illusion could be easily made by the people of the Demon Sect.
Xu Huan doesn't know martial arts, so she doesn't understand, she was barely called a master in the end, and she has had too much contact with the people of the Demon Sect, so she is very sensitive. The magic illusion can be said to be one of the simplest magic skills of the Seven Star Sect, because the illusion of this kind of formation can be made by a slightly more powerful martial artist, so it is not a kind of anti-heaven exercise, everyone can practice it, and it will not hurt the body.
Yuexiqiao sighed, and just wanted to say to Xu Huan, "We're in the illusion, but we can crack it by force, why don't you let the coachman drop the carriage and see if it can be broken", but he was flashed in the eyes by a light that came from nowhere.
The light only appeared for a moment, and when I opened my eyes, it was no longer the steep slope that I had just seen. The road is flat and endless, and it is only when you look at it that you feel comfortable.
The grass on the ground has become as thin as the trees, which is normal.
Yuexi Bridge didn't wonder how this illusion was broken, but immediately froze in place when he saw the two men walking not far ahead.
Neither of them had any weapons on them, and one of them, a slightly shorter man, was holding a sleeping little girlβthe man whom she seemed to have seen somewhere, and who felt chills all over her body, as if she remembered something terrible at the sight of them.
It's a terrible thing, it's a desperate thing, so this personβ
Xu Huan hung his head slightly when he saw the appearance of the little girl in their arms, clenched his fists tightly, and his body trembled.
Yue Xiqiao looked at him and asked incredulously, "Did they really take away your daughter?" β
Xu Huan bit his lip: "Yes......"
Before he finished speaking, the man who didn't hold the child swept in front of them, and Yuexi Bridge was so frightened that he almost fell, and was helped by Xu Huan, so as not to lose face in front of them again.
Yes, againβ
"This, this is also too good-looking, this is only the third? Obviously, the ranking of the Wind Moon Envoy is not real enough. The man smiled and squinted at her face, and deliberately licked his lips, "I don't accept it, Miss Yue, you follow me, how about I keep you first?" β
The one in the back didn't dare to walk quickly because he was holding the child, but he was a little funny: "You don't have that face." I think that half of the rivers and lakes called on Qionghualou to change the beauty list and rank our wife at the top of the list, and Jin Yuxuan was not afraid of pressure and did not change. Who do you think you are. β
"That's because Madame's face can't be on the list, and Qionghualou can't distort the facts." The man in front of him smiled and hugged his arms and said, although he had been staring at her, his eyes were not obscene, "But Miss Yue is a real beauty, and it is really unfair to be ranked third just because of the identity of a prostitute." β
"That's all?" The man behind him finally walked to the other side, hugged the little girl up, and also looked at her and said, "No one in the world thinks that Miss Yue's status as a prostitute is a shame, how can Qionghualou despise herself?" In my opinion, the girl's own mind is wrong, and good people don't do it, but they want to help the abuse, and they are willing to become demons. β
As he spoke, seeing that Yuexi Qiao's face had changed more obviously, he was suddenly stunned for a moment, and his tone was a little softer: "I'm afraid that Miss Yue has already forgotten me, so let's officially say hello to the girl, and practice the night in Xia Chongxiao Pavilion." After speaking, he poked the waist of the man next to him with his elbow.
The man reluctantly glanced at the street sign that read "Nie Hu Village" not far away, closed his eyes and sighed and said, "Chongxiao Pavilion Nie Fusu." β
Among the top ten masters of the Phoenix Pavilion of Chongxiao Pavilion, the third master, Nie Fusu, ranked thirty-eighth on the martial arts list, and the tenth master, Xi Ruoye, ranked eighty-fifth. It stands to reason that any two of the top ten masters will not go on a mission together, let alone Xi Ruoye himself......
Hearing Nie Fusu's name, Yuexiqiao was stunned, and subconsciously asked: "Are you from Nie Huzhai?" β
Nie Fusu was choked, and just as he wanted to speak, he was stepped on by Xi Ruoye.
"Two years ago, I saw Miss Yue's most embarrassed appearance with my own eyes, and the girl naturally didn't want to remember it." Xi Ruoye directly turned her words, and her eyes gradually sharpened, "It's just that the girl herself has already borne the biggest price for her original behavior, why don't she have a long memory, and she is mixed with the people of the Demon Sect again?" β
Two years ago, when she was abolished by the Chongxiao Pavilion Master and destroyed her meridians, Xi Ruoye, as one of the Pavilion Master's close attendants, naturally saw it with her own eyes.
Yes, everyone in the world knows that the masters of the Phoenix Pavilion, Xi Ruozhu and Xi Ruoye, are the close attendants of the Pavilion Lord, and they will only leave the Pavilion Pavilion with the Pavilion Master's outing, how can it be now-
Yuexiqiao didn't speak, but his expression became more and more frightened. Xi Ruoye seemed to see through her thoughts, and sneered: "Does the girl think it's strange to appear in Shangzhou next?" β
Without giving her a chance to speak, Xi Ruoye continued: "A month ago, the pavilion master replaced the next brother and the younger brother below, as for who was replaced......
"Come on, why don't you know how to pity the fragrance and cherish the jade so much, I'll tell you." Nie Fusu gently pushed Xi Ruoye to let him take a good look at the child, and said gently to Yuexi Bridge, "Miss Yue, now the closest to our pavilion master, except for that Shen Lixiao, there is only Feng Tong - he has taken the place of the two little ones, and he can follow the pavilion master at any time, that is, he can let the pavilion master do whatever he wants." β
He shrugged his shoulders again: "Originally, the pavilion master didn't mean anything, but he just felt that Feng Tong was a malleable talent, and he would be able to entrust him with important tasks in the future." Although Miss Yue did such unbearable things back then, for the sake of Feng Tong and Lord Fu Xuan, the pavilion master did not care about the girl to the end, and thought that the girl would reform in the future, how do you think that the two of us just passed through Shangzhou and heard the news of the girl's abduction, and after investigating, we found that the girl actually voluntarily went with the people of the Demon Sect? β
"Feng Tong's face, he also deserves it?" Xi Ruoye said coldly, "Back then, there were demon disciples of the Seven Star Sect who secretly lurked in the Phoenix Pavilion, if it wasn't for Feng Tong who revealed the matter of his wife to the demon disciples, Sheng Ying, the second elder of the Demon Sect, would not have known the identity of his wife, changed his appearance and sneaked into Guiyuan Valley to kill his wife." β
Yuexi Bridge suddenly felt a thunderbolt on the sunny day, unconsciously stepped forward, and said loudly: "Impossible, Feng Tong will never betray Chongxiao Pavilion, he will never do such a thing!" β
"Impossible? He himself has already admitted that he had to do it for your sake. Xi Ruoye's eyes became colder and colder, "It's ridiculous, just because you are worthy of being compared with our wife, a person from the Central Plains who is willing to become a puppet of the Demon Sect is also worthy of living in the Central Plains and accepting the admiration of the world's martial arts people?" Yuexi Bridge, from beginning to end, you only have this face to see, in fact, it is just a dirty puppet. β
Yuexiqiao's face became more and more pale, and he wanted to step forward to argue for Yue Fengtong, but he was shocked by his tone and hesitated to retreat.
After a pause, Xi Ruoye continued: "Feng Tong is a genius in the end, the pavilion master can't bear to kill him, but he can't help but vent this hatred. Since the girl bumped into her own, it is better to go back with me and let the pavilion master deal with it. Maybe the pavilion master has disposed of you, and he will no longer implicate Feng Tong. β
Yuexi Bridge immediately raised his head, as if grasping hope: "I can let the Xuan Pavilion Master dispose of it at will, as long as I don't hurt Feng Tong, I can do whatever I want." β
Nie Fusu and Xi Ruoye glanced at each other, coughed and then said distressedly: "Miss Yue, although our pavilion master does not treat men and women in everything, and treats everyone equally, but in recent years, he has been very good to our loyal subordinates, and he will definitely love the house and Wu, and treat our family members well." It's better for you to marry me as a daughter-in-law, so that your life will be stable, and our pavilion master will no longer think about what to do with you, wouldn't it be the best of both worlds. β
After speaking, he also emphasized that "Nie has admired the girl for a long time", Yuexi Bridge couldn't help but be strange, and after thinking about it, he bowed his head and said: "...... The concubine's body is no longer perfect, and she is not worthy of the son, so she is only willing to let the lord of the Xuan Pavilion vent her hatred. β
"When the girl said this, it seemed that she was a superficial man, and there was one thing to say, the body under it was absolutely ......" Nie Fusu stopped suddenly, his face changed suddenly, "Get out of the way!" β
Before he could react, Yuexiqiao was taken by his shoulder and brought to his side. Nie Fusu's speed was very fast, and in a blink of an eye, he protected her behind him, but when he looked up, he saw that the coachman who had just drawn his knife was actually Xu Huan.
The coachman was wearing a hat, and he was standing next to the carriage at all, and he pulled out a knife out of nowhere and ran straight ahead, Nie Fusu thought that he was heading for the Yuexi Bridge, who thought that his target was the owner of the Xu Pavilion who was standing behind the Yuexi Bridge.
Xu Huan doesn't know martial arts, and he doesn't have anything extra in his hands, so he can't resist at all when he is held hostage in the hands of a martial artist. He obviously didn't expect such a thing to happen suddenly, and after realizing that it was the person next to him who had a problem, he just sighed, and seemed a little desperate.
Xi Ruoye frowned, took a step forward with the little girl in her arms, and just walked to the side of Yuexi Bridge, which was protected by Nie Fusu.
Yue Xiqiao saw that the coachman's face was very hideous, he was holding Xu Huan's neck with one hand, holding a knife in the other hand and placing it on his neck, gritting his teeth and glancing at Nie Fusu and Xi Ruoye, and quickly met her gaze and said: "Miss Yue, we just want you, but we don't want to provoke the people of Chongxiao Pavilion, you come by yourself, I will let the master of the Xu Pavilion go." β
"Are you looking for death?" Without waiting for Yuexi Bridge to speak, Nie Fusu hugged his arms and looked at him with a sneer, "Arrest people in front of you Yeye, take a cottage name and take a surname the same as your Yeye, and if you think your life is too long, you will cut off your life." β
Xi Ruoye also smiled lightly: "You are all them, who do they have if they don't have your surname?" β
The coachman spat hard, the blade was closer to Su Huan's neck, and he gritted his teeth and said: "Decent people kill people like hemp, since you have killed my brother, then no one should think about it!" β
