Volume 1 Where the Heart Wants Chapter 56 Murder
Chapter 56: Murder
"Lin Yan?!" Su Qing saw clearly the woman who was smiling at him in the fog, and shouted loudly.
"Hmm. Like a docile and harmless sheep, the stunning woman whispered back to Su Qing.
Su Qing wiped the blood from his lips, and the sweetness in his mouth spit out and sprayed on the ground, the embarrassed Su Qing stood up, walked to Lin Yan and asked, "Why are you here?"
"I'm looking for you. Lin Yan's face was simple, as if the things in the world were transparent and transparent, and whatever she wanted to do didn't need a purpose, she thought Su Qing was interesting, so she followed, this is the reason.
"You...... Never mind. Su Qing wanted to ask something, but didn't ask, beckoned to Lin Yan, and motioned for her to go over to Zheng Yuqing together.
There were three corpses lying on the ground, all of them were in the tragic state of the separation of human heads, and the three dead heads were still alive, which meant that they were killed directly and instantly without knowing that danger was coming.
When Zheng Yuqing and the three of them met with Su Qing and Lin Yan, but they had only been separated for a while, but it seemed that a long time had passed, Zheng Yuqing saw that Su Qing's face was pale, the clothes on his body were stained with a lot of clay, and there were blood stains on the corners of his mouth that had not been wiped clean, and he was eager to ask Su Qing's physical condition, but Su Qing smiled reluctantly and said, "It's okay, let's hurry." ”
Su Qing remembers the ranger novels he read, the protagonist in it is like this, resisting all the tiredness and injury, but when asked by others, he will stubbornly say that it is not a big deal, you wait and relax.
Zheng Yuqing and the three of them all saw Lin Yan beside Su Qing, and they all remembered that the stunning woman in the Peach Building had come to the rescue, and then they parted ways, and they didn't see it again, I don't know why they appeared here now, and at this moment, there are many doubts, the relationship between Su Qing and this woman, the four bodies separated from the head in the fog, was it done by this woman who suddenly appeared?
Gao Wei in particular, especially wanted to ask if the level of the masters of the entire Dazhu Dynasty had been greatly improved since he recruited him? A young man can be called a demon, and now there is a woman who is not a person at all, or are these old monsters who have lived for hundreds of years, and they have obtained the legendary immortal art and have been able to rejuvenate themselves?
Gao Wei and Han Jun both wanted to ask clearly, but in the end they still didn't say anything, because they felt that it was not necessary, as long as Su Qing and the woman would not endanger their own son, they still didn't dare, for fear that the fate of Wei Xian and the four of them would become their fate in an instant, only they knew.
Zheng Yuqing didn't doubt Su Qing, but there was no shortage of doubts about Lin Yan's sudden appearance, but the situation was urgent, Zheng Yuqing knew that it was not the time to be entangled in such a trivial matter, and since he believed in Su Qing, then Lin Yan followed Su Qing's side, either friend or foe, and everything he couldn't understand could be tolerated to say another word.
After the rush began, Su Qing bluntly asked Gao Wei and Han Yu to take Zheng Yuqing in front, and after him and Lin Yan, Gao Wei and Han Wei had no objection, and Zheng Yuqing did not object. Behind the fast-moving team, Su Qing and Lin Yan walked almost side by side, walking through the mountains and forests together, Su Qing had something to ask, and after thinking about it, he asked a question: "You are very powerful?"
"Hmm. Lin Yan replied.
Then there was endless silence, Su Qing couldn't find a topic or question, so he didn't speak again, but he turned his head to look at Lin Yan from time to time, it was pleasing to the eye, and the injuries suppressed in his body didn't seem to be so painful.
Lin Yan was silent all the way, because of the mountain road, sometimes it was impossible to accommodate the two of them passing side by side, so Lin Yan sometimes consciously fell behind Su Qing, in fact, under her control, she had been half a step slower than Su Qing, once the mountain road narrowed, she could slow down a little more and line up behind Su Qing.
The fog in the mountains gradually dissipated, they have come out of the deep mountains, walking on the artificially opened mountain road, and have begun to go down the mountain, even if it is Zheng Yuqing, because he has been yearning for the rivers and lakes since he was a child, he has practiced Xiaowu, at least he has been stuck in the horse step for several years, so his foot strength is not too weak, and he can keep his legs strong and strong in the fast descent, so as not to lose his feet and roll down the mountain.
On the way down the mountain, it became Han Yu in front, followed by Zheng Yuqing, followed by Gao Wei, Su Qing and Lin Yan.
The five people were like five sturdy apes, quickly descending the mountain, and finally came to the earth, a few hundred meters before the mountain road, a town came into view, the town was called Guoxi.
The five of them stood at the bottom of the mountain, and Zheng Yuqing's body was somewhat loaded, so he could only stop and rest.
Su Qing looked at the town in front of him, it was a little deserted, few families got up early in the morning, and the whole town was like a giant beast still sleeping, in Su Qing's perception, there was a sense of slaughter.
"In the town ahead, I think there's a good chance there's an ambush. Su Qing said suddenly.
Zheng Yuqing stood up straight and looked at Guoxi Town, feeling reasonable, this place was too close to the Kuidou City that Zheng Shixian was in charge of, since Wei Xian took the Xifang disciples into the mountain to chase them, then Zheng Shixian's troops ambushed them here, and it was not so excessive in comparison.
Zheng Yuqing can imagine that Zheng Shixian mobilized hundreds of troops in Kuidou City to kill him, but what he never imagined was that Zheng Shixian mobilized 5,000 elite iron cavalry of the Dazhu Dynasty, stationed in this area, just adding up all directions of Guoxi Town, there will be nine scouts, once Zheng Yuqing and others are found to have entered Guoxi Town, they will move thousands, and thousands of iron cavalry will surround Guoxi Town in a very short time.
"Then we don't enter the town, avoid the official roads, and take the paths. Zheng Yuqing said.
With that, the five of them hurried again.
The path is built against the mountain, and it will be more than half the distance to the next city than passing through the town of Creek and walking on the official road, but this is the only way to do it.
In fact, when Zheng Yuqing and the others walked out of the mountain, they were exposed to the eyes of Zheng Shixian's iron cavalry, the well-trained, top-level standard army of the Dazhu Dynasty, stationed in an area, looking for a few people, as long as the person appeared, there was no transparency, and it was known early that the person was in the mountain, and the eyeliner was planted in the mountain pass, then there would be no black dog blood incident under the lamp.
On the path, Zheng Yuqing and the five people were in a hurry, there was a hillside in front of them, not long, but the five people stopped in front of the slope and did not continue to move forward, the slope was densely packed, crowded with horses, each horse was full of energy, mighty, obviously well-trained, it is estimated that even the jackals, tigers and leopards will not retreat from these horses.
Immediately, there were people, all wearing light armor, and they were not tired after several days of running, and they did not lose their spirit, which was just an appetizer for soldiers, all expressionless, like sculptures.
A general at the head, his eyes fell on Zheng Yuqing, his expression was complicated, he didn't know whether it was right or wrong, but as a soldier, he had to obey orders, and it was impossible to feel that Zheng Yuqing didn't deserve to die and let him go, even if he was willing, was Ze Pao next to him willing?
The general trend has risen, and if they don't stand in a good position, they will be dead.
"Presumptuous, do you know who you're holding back?" shouted Hanchu.
The five of them all looked at the top of the hillside, densely packed, and due to the problem of sight, they didn't know how many people were on the slope.
"I know, I just came. The general drew out the long sword hanging on the horse, the sword body was extremely long, and the hilt was at least fifty centimeters long, and the sword was a signal, and four iron horsemen rushed out from his side and behind him, first test the water, in case the four horsemen alone could cut off Zheng Yuqing's people and capture Zheng Yuqing alive, wouldn't it be excellent.
But the general knew that there would be countless casualties here today, and he didn't know why, so he had this premonition.
This nearly thirty-year-old general, in fact, has the root bones of good qi training, and has a sensitive sixth sense, if he becomes a monk, if he does not die young, he will definitely participate in the creation, but it is a pity that the pearl fell into the swamp and did not see the light of day, and now even if he starts to be a monk again, it is too late, just like the pearl that is one in a million is eroded by the methane, and there is no longer the best quality of the natural nature.
"It's really menacing, it's no nonsense at all. Gao Wei smiled bitterly.
In fact, he is a person who is greedy for life and afraid of death, otherwise he will be recruited by the imperial court, if there is a chance now that Gao Wei can choose, betraying Zheng Yuqing can survive, then Gao Wei may hesitate, but the ending will not be unexpected in order to live, but at least Gao Wei will not take the initiative to betray Zheng Yuqing, and there is no idea of bringing Zheng Yuqing's head to invite Zheng Shixian, after all, morality is at ease in everyone's heart, more or less, more or less, more or less.
"Are you ready?" Lin Yan said to Su Qing suddenly.
"What?"
"Murder. Lin Yan raised his eyebrows, his tone was flat, and he didn't think it was a big deal.
"Murder ......" Su Qing grasped it in his hand.

On the official road to Guoxi Town, a man dressed in black, slender and strong, riding a black horse that matches his body shape, the black horse galloped wildly, the speed was extremely fast, the man was actually handsome, but his face was not smiling and looked extraordinary, so he lost his handsomeness, full of majestic and heroic hair, he was actually riding a horse with one hand, and carrying a Fang Tian painting halberd in the other.
Behind him, followed by forty or fifty horsemen, all of them were wearing black armor, they were the famous first cavalry army of the Dazhu Dynasty, the black armor army, the distance between them and the black-clothed man from the same time and starting point at the original time, the distance was getting bigger and bigger, you must know that the Fang Tian painting halberd weighed hundreds of catties.

In the south of Kuidou City, there is a royal big ship from the middle of the Dazhu Dynasty, accompanied by two escort boats, the big ship has four layers, the boat is carved with a fence and jade masonry, the decoration is not lost in the famous restaurant in the imperial city, the boat next to it is actually not small, there are three layers, but it is a military warship, and the ship is full of black armor.
The three ships went north and will dock at the mouth of the Jiuqu River, and the soldiers will come to Kuidoucheng.
In Kuidou City, Zheng Shixian, who regarded the City Lord's Mansion as his temporary palace, was lying on a soft chair, enjoying the service of the slaves and maids, but since he came in the morning, Zheng Shixian always felt restless, something big was about to happen.
"Will Zheng Yuqing really be allowed to escape back to the palace?" Zheng Shixian muttered to himself, and then quickly slapped himself twice, shook his head and said to himself that it is impossible, no, I don't believe it.

In front of an unnamed slope on the road next to Guoxi Town, Su Qing squatted on the ground, and in front of him was the corpse of a soldier who had been hammered and exploded.
