Chapter Forty-Eight: There Are Eyebrows
"And do you know where he left?"
"How do I know that?" The shopkeeper shook his head, then thought about it again, raised his hand and pointed in a direction, and said, "I remember that he went in that direction when he left, and I saw that he seemed to be in a hurry." ”
"Thank you, shopkeeper."
Xiao Yan put a piece of silver on the counter, then looked at Feng Yu and said, "Let's go." ”
When the two of them left the inn, they rushed directly in the direction pointed by the shopkeeper, rushed all the way out of the city, and then slowed down to look for clues.
The shopkeeper said that if he saw the man in black wandering outside the inn, it meant that those people did not dare to do anything in the city, so the place they could only attack was in the suburbs.
Feng Yu searched carefully, hoping to find some clues, but the more anxious she was, the more she couldn't find any clues.
However, Xiao Yan, who has been fighting outside for many years, is different, he has been dealing with the enemy army all year round, knows how to set up an ambush, and knows where the best place to assassinate.
So Xiao Yan soon found a clue in a forest on the outskirts, he called Fengyu who was next to him over, and then began to look around.
"Did you find it?" Feng Yu hurriedly ran over, and was shocked when she saw that there were traces of a fight all around.
Xiao Yan nodded and said, "It should be here, let's look around and see if there are any clues left." ”
Subsequently, Feng Yu and Xiao Yan began to look for clues separately, and when they saw the blood on the ground, Feng Yu couldn't help but worry about Feng Yi's safety.
Feng Yu turned around and wanted to talk to Xiao Yan, but seeing that he seemed to have found something, he squatted on the ground motionless, and Feng Yu immediately ran towards him.
"It's ......"
Looking at the jade pendant in Xiao Yan's hand, Feng Yu's heart suddenly tightened, Xiao Yan got up and handed her the jade pendant, "This should be left over from the fight." ”
Feng Yu took the jade pendant over and looked at it carefully, and determined that this was Feng Yi's jade pendant, this jade pendant Feng Yi wears all year round, and there will be no mistake.
The traces of the fight around were very obvious, there was still blood on the ground, and now that Feng Yi's jade pendant had been found, Feng Yu felt a sense of unease in her heart.
"Brother Huang, he ......"
Seeing that Feng Yu's hand holding the jade pendant trembled slightly, although Xiao Yan also felt that things were going in a bad direction, he still comforted: "Don't worry, the eldest prince is strong in martial arts, maybe he hasn't been caught by them yet." ”
Feng Yu shook her head, and said in a hoarse voice: "Looking at the traces of the fighting around, the other party must have been overwhelmed at that time, and the imperial brother was just one person, how could he be their opponent." Maybe, maybe......"
"Calm down."
Xiao Yan interrupted Feng Yu's words, held her shoulders and said, "Let's not scare ourselves first, although there are many people on the other side, but the eldest prince has strong martial arts and a wise mind, so he will not be caught so easily." ”
"What do you mean...... It's true? Feng Yu looked at him with some disbelief, for fear that Xiao Yan would lie to her in order not to worry her.
"Nature is true." Xiao Yan nodded, and was about to continue talking, but suddenly saw that something seemed to be wrong with the tree next to him.
Letting go of Feng Yu's shoulder, Xiao Yan walked to the tree and took a closer look, and then looked at Feng Yu with a look of surprise, "This is the code left by the eldest prince." ”
Feng Yu hurriedly walked over and saw a string of things carved on the tree, but unfortunately she couldn't understand it, so she could only ask Xiao Yan what this meant.
"The eldest prince is still in the city, we have to go back quickly."
"Okay, let's go." Feng Yu nodded almost without hesitation, she believed in Xiao Yan's ability, and she also believed that he would not lie to her.
Then the two left the woods, got on their horses and galloped into the city, and the secret message left by Feng Yi only said that they were in the city, so even if they arrived in the city, they still had to continue to search.
But at least it can be said that Feng Yi was not caught by those people, and he should be safe at the moment.
As soon as the two returned to the city, before they could look for it, they met Zhao Xu, who was wandering on the street. Feng Yu was angry when she saw him, but because she was worried about Feng Yi's safety, she planned to let him go first.
Who knew that this Zhao Xu liked to find trouble, and when he saw Feng Yu's white appearance, he let people block their way.
Xiao Yan saw that Zhao Xu had been staring at Feng Yu, frowned unhappily, and then blocked Feng Yu behind him, looked at Zhao Xu and said, "I don't know what happened to this son?" Why stand in our way? ”
"This little brother has fine skin and tender meat."
At this time, Feng Yu was still dressed as a woman, so even if Zhao Xu praised her as soon as she opened her mouth, it made Feng Yu feel disgusted, especially when she saw the way he looked at her, she couldn't wait to slap her.
Feng Yu, who was standing behind Xiao Yan, looked at him with a cold face and said, "Thank you Gongzi for your compliment, but we are leaving." ”
As he spoke, he was about to leave with Xiao Yan, but Zhao Xu took a step forward to block in front of them.
"Childe, I'm a person who likes to go straight, so I'll just say it straight." Zhao Xu looked at Xiao Yan with a smile on his face, then took the money bag from his subordinates and said, "You make a price and sell me the little brother behind you." ”
Hearing Zhao Xu's words, Xiao Yan's eyes instantly became cold, he clenched the hand on his side, and said in a low voice: "Get out." ”
The smile on Zhao Xu's face gradually disappeared, he glanced at Feng Yu, took the money bag in his hand, and said again: "Let me ask you again, do you sell it or not?" ”
"It's the same as many times you ask." Xiao Yan looked at each other coldly, squinted his eyes and said, "If you know each other, just give me a chance to get out of here." ”
"Heh, it's quite imposing." Zhao Xu sneered, looked at Xiao Yan and said, "It's not for sale, right?" If you don't sell it, I'll just grab it. ”
After Zhao Xu finished speaking, he directly reached out to grab Fengyu, Xiao Yan quickly raised his hand with a palm, and beat Zhao Xu back a few steps back again and again.
Zhao Xu, who was beaten, was unwilling, and immediately raised his hand and clenched his fist, and rushed straight towards Xiao Yan.
Xiao Yan was already suppressing his anger because of Zhao Xu's insult to Fengyu, but now he was even more angry when he saw him directly robbing people. So when he saw him rushing over, he raised his hand and started to fight directly, with every palm and punch mercilessly.
That Zhao Xu is just a little kung fu, how can he be the opponent of Xiao Yan, who has been practicing martial arts since he was a child, and he was beaten by Xiao Yan in a few strokes.
Zhao Xu stumbled and fell on the stall next to him, he looked at the domineering Xiao Yan, and didn't dare to rush up again, so he could only shout: "Give it to me, catch both of them!" ”
The next moment, Zhao Xu's subordinates immediately surrounded Xiao Yan and Feng Yu, but because they saw Xiao Yan beating Zhao Xu before, they only dared to surround people, and no one dared to do it first.
Seeing that his subordinates only had momentum and no actual action, Zhao Xu became angry, kicked on the subordinates next to him, and yelled: "What are you doing in a daze? Give it all to me! ”
There was no way, those subordinates could only rush towards Fengyu and Xiao Yan, seeing this, Xiao Yan protected Fengyu tightly beside him.
To be honest, these little minions are not his opponents even if there are ten more, but now Feng Yi has not been found, if it attracts attention and exposes his identity, it will only make Feng Yi more dangerous.
"Follow me."
Xiao Yan turned around and said to Feng Yu, then kicked away the person in front of him, grabbed Feng Yu's wrist, and pulled her out of the encirclement.
In order not to drag Xiao Yan back, Feng Yu struggled to run with him, the speed of the two was very fast, and Xiao Yan was particularly proficient in chasing and killing, so they soon threw off Zhao Xu's men.
"Alright, it's okay."
The two ran into an alley, Feng Yu gasped for breath, Xiao Yan saw that she was uncomfortable, so he gently patted her back to help her breathe.
After passing her breath, Fengyu looked at Xiao Yan and smiled: "It's the first time I've been chased by someone." ”
"That Zhao Xu, I won't let him go." Xiao Yan gritted his teeth and clenched his fists angrily.
Feng Yu also nodded and agreed: "I won't let him go." ”
"Buy, the official position is not counted, and he still acts on the street, and today he dares to buy people on the street, and if he doesn't sell it, he will rob it directly."
"For a person like this, he is cheapened in prison, and he should be cut with a thousand cuts."
Looking at Feng Yu, who was angry and kept scolding, Xiao Yan couldn't help but bow his head and smile, and then said, "The princess is right. ”
When she had vented enough, Feng Yu asked, "What should I do next?" This city is so big, where do we start? ”
Xiao Yan thought for a moment and said, "Let's go to the various pharmacies in the city to inquire first and see if there are any injured people in the past two days." ”
"Okay."
So the two of them began to search in the city, and as long as it was a pharmacy, they went in to inquire, but several of them said that they had not received the injured person.
Just as the two were about to leave, an old man suddenly came in from outside the door, he walked to the medicine counter, and told the guy at the pharmacy that he had something to ask Lang Zhong.
Lang Zhong came out and glanced at the old man and asked, "What's the matter?" ”
"I want to ask, how to heal a person who has been wounded by a knife?"
Feng Yu and Xiao Yan were just about to step out of the door, and after hearing the old man's words, they immediately stopped and turned to look at him.
"Where is the location of the injury? When was the injury? ”
"Right here......," said the old man, pointing to his abdomen, "I've been wounded for two days." ”
"Uncle Li, there is no one in your family, who was injured?" The guy next to him asked with a strange expression.
The old man sighed and said, "Two days ago, I went up the mountain to chop wood, and I met a man at the bottom of the hillside. ”
"Has the bleeding stopped?" Lang Zhong asked.
The old man shook his head, "The bleeding has stopped, but the injury has not improved, and the person still had a fever last night." ”
"Does it burn badly?"
"Uh...... It's pretty impressive. But this morning it was better. ”
Lang Zhong frowned and asked, "Why don't you bring someone to take a look?" ”
"He won't come, and I can't help it." The old man shook his head helplessly and said, "Doctor, will you take two pairs of medicines?" ”
"Then you tell me about the specific situation of his injury, I will give you two pairs of medicine to eat first, it really doesn't work, you can bring someone again."
"Okay, thank you, doctor." The old man nodded gratefully.
Feng Yu and Xiao Yan glanced at each other, and then walked out of the pharmacy, after leaving the pharmacy, the two did not go far, but stood opposite the pharmacy and watched from afar.
