Chapter 20: The Lost Suburbs of Beijing

The two carriages have been detained, and the scarface man enters the courtyard with his subordinates.

One of the subordinates said respectfully to the scar-faced man: "Alliance leader, if we are asked by the owner when we go inside, how should we explain?" ”

"Naturally, I'm going to explain it, so you don't have to worry. Unload the rest and hide it. The scarface man said as he walked to the room in the courtyard.

The crowd answered—yes.

The door opened, and there were already people waiting inside. Dressed in a black veil, his face is hidden under the black veil from which his hat hangs. With his back to the door, he was in thin shape.

The scar-faced man closed the door and said respectfully to the black yarn in the house, "Guest, the things have been brought." ”

"Mo Li, don't you need to explain what happened outside?" Hei Sha turned around, stared at the person named Moli in front of him, and said sharply.

Although the tone of the black yarn was stern, her voice was gentle and soft—it was obviously a woman's voice.

"Guest, there was a collision between a car and a horse outside. The two truckloads were searched and taken away by officers and soldiers, which was really an accident. Mo Li seemed to be afraid of the guest in front of him, and he didn't dare to raise his eyebrows when he spoke.

"Your deeds have been revealed, are you ready to apologize for your crimes? I am also acting on the orders of the Lord. Hei Sha seemed to have absolute control over Mo Li, and her speech was straightforward.

The officers and soldiers of the team did not suspect it, and when they were smuggling and selling, they took away two truckloads of goods. Please rest assured, please also convey to the lord and subordinates...... No, it will go according to plan. Because Mo Li said the wrong thing, his expression suddenly became nervous.

"Outside, I'm just your client, your owner, don't let me repeat it again. Regardless of whether the officers and men are aware of it or not, for the sake of prudence, they will evacuate this place on the same day. Another point of contact, as you all know. The guest paused, thought for a while, and continued: "The armor and weapons are quickly and secretly transported away, and this shop will be resold immediately, so as not to leave any clues." ”

"Yes, we'll deal with it as soon as it gets dark."

"Remember, don't show your tracks, don't make mistakes. We've been waiting for this opportunity for too long...... The two truckloads that are missing, I will find someone to deal with them. You stand aside for now, and after today, don't contact here. The host's voice slowed down and his voice was calm.

"Yes, remember what the guest commands."

The voice had stopped, and Mo Li exited the room and closed the door.

The room was instantly dark and quiet, except for a ray of sunlight shining obliquely through the small window, sprinkling on the body of the black gauze woman. Half light, half dark, like a black rose.

After a few moments, the woman in black veil quietly left the room through the back door. Walk to an uninhabited alley, turn into a private house, and hide your whereabouts.

As the black-gauze woman disappeared at the corner of the street, Luo Xiaotian suddenly appeared not far behind her. He walked against the wall, followed closely by the woman in black veil.

Judging from the conversation he had just heard, this woman in black gauze must be his target. If you follow her, you may be able to find the stronghold of the Men in Black organization and retrieve the box left by your mother.

……

Luo Xiaotian followed the black gauze woman all the way to the city gate. I saw her riding a horse, and without thinking, galloped straight outside the city gate. Luo Xiaotian thought to himself: Not good! I'm afraid I'm going to lose it.

He stood in the street in front of the city gate and looked around. After sweeping around, his eyes locked on a stable next to the inn. Turning his head again, he saw the figure of the woman in black gauze galloping away, and hurriedly got up and ran to the stable.

Immediately after, he hurriedly untied the reins of a horse. Pull the horse out and straddle the horse.

The young man at the stable saw that someone was leading the horse, and ran over in a hurry. Grabbed the saddle and said, "What do you want to do......"

Don't wait for him to finish. Luo Xiaotian, who was in a hurry to chase after the black gauze woman, threw a money bag to the ground. Then he threw the reins hard, and the horse neighed and ran out into the street. Only the unfinished young man was left, picking up the money bag on the ground and grumbling behind him.

By the time Luo Xiaotian rode out of the city gate, the figure of the black-gauzed woman was getting farther and farther away, and she was about to disappear from view. So, Luo Xiaotian hurriedly pumped the horse's leg vigorously and accelerated towards her.

All the way. From a distance, Luo Xiaotian, who was chasing the black gauze woman. It has been chased to the dense forest outside the city, where there are few pedestrians.

He didn't dare to slack off this time, staring at the black-gauze woman in front of him. When she got too close, she gradually slowed down so as not to be noticed by her. He knew that once he lost her whereabouts this time, it would be difficult to find clues again.

The black gauze woman tossed and turned, and didn't seem to notice Luo Xiaotian behind her. Soon after, the horse was driven off the main road and into the inaccessible mountains.

Wade through a river to a place with high mountains and dense forests. There are too many trees and it affects the line of sight. At this moment, Luo Xiaotian's gaze did not dare to take his eyes off the black gauze woman's body.

Stopping and stopping inadvertently, it is already dozens of miles away from Kyoto.

He chased him to the foot of a towering mountain, and the figure of the black-gauzy woman suddenly disappeared. He was under the cliff of the mountain peak and stopped for a moment.

Although it is a smart feng shui here, there are no houses, no high houses, and sparsely populated.

Dismounting, he headed for a trail under the cliff. There are many mountains and rocks here, and it is even more difficult to find a woman in black yarn. You can only get off the horse first to see if there will be traces of the horse's hooves left by her.

Knock –

A dull bell rang from the mountain peaks overhead, echoing through the empty valley. Birds and beasts, startled by the sound of the bells, chirped and flew out of the dense forests of the valley.

Luo Xiaotian's horse was also startled and neighed, and he hurriedly stepped forward to calm down. When the horse had quieted down, they led it along the trail with the horseshoe prints to the top of the hill where the bell rang.

The trail winds along the cliffs until it reaches a wide flat area on the mountainside. The wide and straight staircase suddenly appears in front of you, leading to the temple at the top of the mountain. The horseshoe prints have also disappeared, could it be that the black gauze woman entered the temple in front? Luo Xiaotian thought secretly in his heart as he walked towards the temple.

The temple is tall and majestic, surrounded by misty clouds, which is extremely psychedelic. It seems that there is a Venerable Dao, in the heavenly realm of this immortal cultivation. It's just that this huge temple is far away from Kyoto and is inaccessible, so it doesn't seem to want the incense offerings of all living beings.

Luo Xiaotian walked to the closed vermilion gate of the temple and glanced up. I saw three gilded characters on the plaque - "Yunding Temple".

He raised his hand and was about to knock on the door to enter. Before his hand fell, he paused to think: If this woman in black gauze really entered the temple, then she naturally couldn't enter it in the open. Instead, it alarmed her, and she didn't know where this temple came from.

Since you can't enter the main gate, you can only think of other ways.

That's right - Luo Xiaotian is going to climb the wall again. He secretly complained in his heart: there was no ladder, no tree, and the master did not teach him volleying.

He walked to the high wall on the side of the temple, tightened his whole body, and stood in place. As soon as the eyes are closed, breathe evenly into the breath. With both hands on his chest, he jumped up and jumped towards the high wall of the temple.

Er, his feet fell to the ground, and he stepped on the grass firmly - Luo Xiaotian had just used the mental method he had learned to try to use his skills to volley into the air. As a result, just like a rabbit, he jumped in place for a while, and his body remained in place.

Luo Xiaotian shook his head in embarrassment. I secretly said in my heart: Master, Master...... They didn't teach me volleys in the first place. Now every time I hit a high wall, I have a headache.

He glanced up at the high wall, helpless. With his hands behind his back as if he were walking, he walked leisurely along the high walls of the temple and continued to look for a way to get in.

At this time, within the high walls of the temple, one of the grounds was open in the middle of the courtyard. A group of mysterious warriors in black cloaks are gathering here. He wears a hood on his head, and his face is hidden in the hood, so he can't see any expression, which invisibly gives people a sense of fear.

There are also several monks in monk's robes around, coming in and out of the gate of the courtyard. At this time, the two do not seem to have any sense of disobedience. These two kinds of people are actually here, miraculously blended together, and the two sides did not interfere with each other. Come to think of it, each should have become accustomed to each other's existence.

There is a cave in this temple, so mysterious, it is by no means a serious temple in the imagination.

There were several elderly monks who passed by the courtyard where the samurai were. Walk through the courtyard and walk towards the courtyard next to it. At this time, I suddenly found that the black gauze woman was standing in the courtyard, as if she was waiting for these monks.

The old monks walked up to her and respectfully bowed with one palm. The old monk at the head said: "Young master, I've been waiting for a long time, I heard that something happened in the city?" ”

The woman in the black gauze slowly turned around and returned the salute to the old monks. In a gentle voice, he said politely: "It's okay, it won't affect this operation." It's just that there are two truckloads missing, so I still have to trouble Master Jingtang, and then think of a way. ”

"It's okay if the plan is okay, I'll leave this matter to me." The old monk at the head said.

"Then it's troublesome for the master." The woman in black's voice at this moment was obviously much softer than when she was in the city. After a slight pause, he continued: "Have all the people for this operation been selected?" ”

"One hundred and thirty disciples, who have been training for months. Twenty-five have been preliminarily selected, and the young master can now be brought to meet them. ”

"It's not necessary, Master Jingtang decides. A dozen of my dead men in the city are already on standby. Master Jingtang, when will these twenty-five people arrange to enter the city to meet? ”

"On the same day, the Lord has also explained that these disciples are all dispatched by the young master."

"Well, that's what I'm here for today. The Lantern Festival is about to take place, and everything is ready, just waiting for these people. ”

"The old monk will arrange the people by himself, and he can set off tomorrow, so the young master doesn't need to worry."

The black-gauze woman nodded, and suddenly remembered something in her heart, so she asked, "Why did the Lord arrange for Shaoyong's disciples to infiltrate Pan Lao's territory recently?" This matter has spread in the capital. ”

Master Jingtang replied a little cautiously: "The old monk doesn't dare to ask about the Lord's affairs, let alone say it. As long as it's not too serious, someone will come forward to calm down. ”

The black gauze woman said thoughtfully: "It's just that the person who was sent out was rescued by others." That's why I asked, for fear of causing trouble. ”

The Lord also knew about this matter, and he had his own plans. According to the information inquired, the person who rescued Shaoyong's disciple was a young man who had just arrived in Kyoto from Lingyang City. It is said that this person is still in Lingyang City...... Subdued the Kraken that had been plagued for decades. ”

Hearing this, the black gauze woman was shocked, and her eyes flickered.

couldn't help blurting out: "Brother Xiaotian......"
