Chapter 137: Step In
When the boat slowly approached the dock, Gu Muyan and Cheng Qi had already changed their clothes.
And that Yu Qingsheng followed behind them like a housekeeper.
"In another hundred miles, we will have to complete the task alone." Yu Qingsheng saluted respectfully and said to Cheng Qi and Gu Muyan, but his tone was not like a housekeeper, but as if he was reminding Gu Muyan and Cheng Qi.
"Then we waited until the last post station, we went out quietly at night, and how about we go back to the post station to pick up the princess of Xijiang Kingdom in ten days?" Cheng Qi was not satisfied with Yu Qingsheng speaking to Gu Muyan in such a tone, so he simply stood in front of Gu Muyan and said.
Yu Qingsheng saw Cheng Qi's slightly frowning brows, and also realized that his attitude was really not too good, so he didn't say much, only replied lightly: "Ten days should be enough." ”
"Ah Yan, let's go." Cheng Qi turned around and looked back at Gu Muyan, stretched out one of his hands and waited for Gu Muyan to say.
And Gu Muyan put her hand on the hand that Cheng Qi had already stretched out in front of her, nodded slowly, and was led away by Cheng Qi.
Yu Qingsheng, who was left behind, clenched his hands into fists tightly, looking at the backs of Gu Muyan and Cheng Qi who were far away.
"Your Excellency?" One of the guards of the Uemon shouted in confusion, and then whispered a few words in his ear.
"Let's do it." Yu Qingsheng nodded after hearing this, and the whole person seemed to react a little, and Gu Muyan's brows were not as tight as those just now.
"What's wrong with you? Did you really have a heart for that woman? Yu Qingsheng snorted coldly and thought in his heart.
In the name of merchants, the group bought many items along the way, but they were all worthless things, but the team became extremely large, and it really looked like a caravan.
A few days later, everyone finally arrived at the last post house, which was already inaccessible, because of the chaos on the border for a long time, the ordinary boss's surname was no longer willing to come here, so this caravan could be regarded as a blatant entry into the post house, and no one cared.
At night, Cheng Qi woke up Gu Muyan, and when the two of them packed up and went out, Yu Qingsheng had been waiting in the courtyard of the post house for a long time.
At this time, Gu Muyan and Cheng Qi had already changed into the clothes of Xijiang Kingdom, and even Yu Qingsheng was no exception.
"According to the location of the previous Qiluo tribe on the map, it is in the east of the Xijiang country." Yu Qingsheng pointed to the direction on the map and said.
Seeing Cheng Qi and Gu Muyan's slightly frowning brows, Yu Qingsheng explained: "In the past, the capital of Xijiang Country was not here, nor was it adjacent to our Chen Dynasty, and there was once a small country called Tianquan in the middle, and this Qiluo clan came from Tianquan, but unfortunately after Tianquan destroyed the country, the Qiluo clan also disappeared. ”
"So this heavenly power was destroyed by the Xijiang Kingdom?" Gu Muyan asked naturally.
And Yu Qingsheng just nodded and didn't say anything else.
"Is it possible that this Qiluo tribe may be living in the country of Xijiang Kingdom, after all, this most dangerous place may be the safest." Gu Muyan analyzed.
Cheng Qi on the side also nodded in agreement and said: "It's very possible, we are going to the capital of Xijiang Country left and right, if it is too late for ten days, maybe we can also let the people from the post house come directly, and we will pick it up when the time comes." ”
"Okay, that's it." Yu Qingsheng nodded in agreement, and then immediately ordered one of the guards of the Neiemon to stay and wait for their news, ten days later, whether they came back or not, the people who greeted the princess of Xijiang Kingdom in the post house must set off.
Gradually, the sky slowly brightened, and Gu Muyan and his party had already left the post house for some distance, and at this time, there was a straight morning market on the street, and the group didn't want to leave without staying too long, but this Xijiang country did not allow anyone to leave the morning market before the morning market ended.
Therefore, Gu Muyan and the others came to settle down, and simply found a restaurant to enjoy the local specialties.
Looking at Gu Muyan's fluent Xijiang dialect, even Cheng Qi didn't expect it, after all, before this, Cheng Qi was the same as Yu Qingsheng, just snuggling up to Gu Muyan and simply speaking something, but he never expected to be so proficient.
After ordering the dishes, Cheng Qi took the first step to ask, "Ah Yan, your dialect is too good!" ”
"That's, after all, that mother-in-law taught me a long time when I was a child." Gu Muyan grinned and replied with an extremely happy smile.
It's just that it's not like Gu Muyan said at all, at that time, he was sent to Xijiang Country by Xiao Yi like a hostage, and he didn't let him say a word to himself, except for the mother-in-law.
If it weren't for the mother-in-law herself, I am afraid that she would not have lived until the day she went back, but at that time, she even felt stupidly that as long as she went back, Xiao Yi would definitely miss everything she had done.
But who would have thought that what was waiting for him was such an ending, he helped Xiao Yi get the defense map of Xijiang Kingdom, and Cheng Qi risked his life to attack Xijiang Kingdom in order to consolidate his position.
In the end, waiting for himself to have Cheng Qi, but there was only a dead end, I am afraid that my grandfather and Cheng Qi at that time had already guessed this, but they still lost their lives and the lives of everyone behind them for the unattainable hope in their hearts.
Every time I think of this, Gu Muyan always can't understand why God still let himself be reborn after he has done so much evil, and he is afraid that the only explanation for this is to save the lives of all the people who died in vain in his previous life.
"I have time, I want to hear you talk about when you were a child." Cheng Qi looked at Gu Muyan's eyes and said seriously, and the hands under the table gradually held together.
"Okay." Gu Muyan's face flushed slightly, nodded and said.
As the dishes slowly came up, Gu Muyan and Cheng Qi had no choice but to let go of the hands holding each other.
After the wine and food were full, the morning market was almost dispersed, and the group walked in the direction of the capital of Xijiang again.
It's just that this Xijiang country is not as chaotic as the Chen Dynasty, most of them are nomads, and all the people are ordinary people living with bandits.
As for why they didn't send troops to deal with all those bandits, the biggest reason is probably that these bandits will hardly attack the people, and will only do it to the merchants in the past.
Therefore, these bandits will naturally not be punished by the army of Xijiang State, even if this caravan returns to their own country to report to the official, after all, it is also what happened on the land of other countries, and they naturally can't control too much.
And the strange caravan of Gu Muyan and others is undoubtedly a new prey.
"Yo! This business seems to be doing very well! Where is this going? What are you selling? A robber leader slowly shook over, looked at Gu Muyan with ill intentions and said.
And this robber was not only provocative in words, but even this hand was unconsciously going to Gu Muyan's body to beckon, Cheng Qi saw this and directly blocked in front of Gu Muyan and said, "How many people seem to be robbing?" ”
"Now that I know it, then I won't talk nonsense, and those who know each other should hurry up and hand over the money and treasures!" The man waved the big knife in his hand and snorted coldly, quite like if he didn't hand over the money, he would correct Gu Muyan and the others on the spot.
But who is Gu Muyan, how could he be frightened by such a carving insect skill, and gently patted Cheng Qi's back, signaling Cheng Qi to get out of the way.
Then he said to the "robber" in front of him in Xijiang dialect: "Oh? Why should we give it to you? ”
"You! You! What are you talking about! The robber's eyes rolled in his sockets, swallowed slightly, and looked at Gu Muyan in a state of vigilance.
"These are the people of the Chen Dynasty?" Yu Qingsheng on the side frowned slightly and asked, Gu Muyan nodded.
Just without waiting for Gu Muyan to continue to explain, Yu Qingsheng directly ordered the people from Neiemon to step forward, and solved the ordinary people in front of him in three or two clicks.
"What are you doing?" Gu Mu's tone was slightly angry, looking at Yu Qingsheng behind him and asking.
"What do you say I'm doing to scourge my fellow citizens in a foreign land?" Yu Qingsheng didn't understand why Gu Muyan looked at him with such eyes, and he retorted with an extremely bad temper at the moment.
I only heard Gu Muyan sigh before he said slowly: "These people can still show me the way if they stay, and they can also avoid some other bandits in this desert, besides, these people have been here for so long, it must be due to the reason, this desert is sparsely populated, and if the real robbers come to the door at that time, they will definitely be able to lock us soon!" ”
"I'm sorry, I didn't think it through." How could Yu Qingsheng think of such a deep question, and at the same time he felt guilty and became more and more curious about Gu Muyan.
Who is this woman in front of her, she has such a delicate mind, much more than herself!
"The only way to do this is to get out of here quickly, take a long detour, and try to avoid the horse thieves around here!" When Gu Muyan saw Yu Qingsheng apologize, he no longer cared about it, but said the solution.
The group quickly left here, and sure enough, not long after Gu Muyan left, those real horse thieves found the corpses buried in the sand.
"Looks like a big head is coming!" The leader of the horse thieves smiled coldly, and then rode his horse and commanded: "Go to the market in front and inquire about whether there are any new caravans or dart divisions recently!" ”
"Yes! Top dog! The men replied one by one, and the bloodthirsty blood on his body seemed to be stimulated all at once, and it scattered in all directions.
On the other side, Gu Muyan and Cheng Qi were frantically leaving the nearby desert, but fortunately, today's wind and sand were still quite big, and their footprints were covered by the wind and sand, so those horse thieves did not find them at once, which was already a blessing in misfortune.
"What do we do next?" Cheng Qi asked Gu Muyan that Cheng Qi had never even been to this strange country, and he had lost some ideas, and Gu Muyan seemed to have become their center.
Especially after what happened just now, the entire Neiemon people have nothing to say about Chengkei's questioning.
