"My lord, why did you let them go?"

"More is better than less. Since they had no intention of competing for credit, and they went out of the city overnight, why did the official ask for trouble? ”

"Bai Kui, you don't believe in your words!" Tian Ye said angrily.

"Young man, I've drugged my food, but they're safe and sound, which means they've taken precautions. Since they don't want to do more things and choose to avoid it, isn't it boring for me to chase after them? ”

"You ......"

"Besides, those people aren't easy to mess with. They are not controlled by drugs, can we take them down? Those of my subordinates are not skilled in martial arts, but they can't beat them, can you beat them? ”

"You...... Aren't you afraid that I'll kill you? Tian Ye couldn't say Bai Kui, and changed it to a threat.

"You can kill me, but you can't run away, although my subordinates are not good, they can still deal with you alone. This is the approval to go out of the city gate, you better go to your chick while they haven't gone far yet. ”

Tian Ye glared at Bai Kui hatefully, turned around and chased him out.

After Tian Ye left, Bai Kui immediately wrote a letter, called his confidant, and asked him to send it to Xia Hongying after half an hour, and gave a few more instructions.

Watching his henchmen leave, Bai Kui breathed a sigh of relief. I was so deluded that I almost listened to the slander of the field and ruined my future. When he read the note that the mysterious man had given him, he couldn't believe it.

He asked the mysterious man, "Is this true?" ”

"Believe it or not."

"Why help me?"

"You're a good officer."

Bai Kui wanted to ask again, but the mysterious man had disappeared. Bai Kui secretly investigated, but the more he investigated, the more panicked he became, and it seemed that what the mysterious man said was true.

However, if they know their careful thoughts, they will be dead; There's another field here to make trouble, and it's all a mess.

Bai Kui had to stand still, and finally, he figured out what to do and made many preparations. It's best if it's okay, if it really comes to an uncontrollable situation, he has no choice but to be ruthless.

The current situation is what he is most happy to see, the other party is in a hurry, there is no intention of inviting credit, and there is no conflict between the two sides. Xia Hongying may have seen through his careful thoughts, or she may still be testing him, but she has no intention of bothering with him.

Overall, this result is a blessing. It's just this field......

As for Tian Ye's suggestion to drug the meal, he Bai Kui is not stupid. He hasn't forgotten how the black sand village was broken, the girl who drugged was the expert, and the class didn't kill herself with an axe.

It wasn't until she entered the White Elephant Mountain that Xia Hongying stopped.

"Bai Kui has a problem?" Ice Flame asked.

"I'm not sure, anyway, our goal has been achieved, and more is better than less."

"Well, it's always good to be cautious." Xue Qing also agreed, "And we are completely outwitted this time, and there is nothing worth promoting." ”

"Mai Daxia, you have been running with us."

"Xia Gongzi doesn't have to be like this, I feel uneasy to stay there, and now I am down-to-earth. Besides, we're going to find that traitor in the field. ”

"It's getting late, let's find a cave to rest and make plans tomorrow."

"Good!"

Xia Hongying stood alone at the entrance of the cave, thinking about the events of the day. The secret report he received in the morning, "Bai Kui grabbing merit", the meaning is very clear, Bai Kui is likely to be unfavorable to them for the sake of merit and political achievements. They either take Bai Kui down, or they need to make Bai Kui understand that they have no interest in the merit of suppressing bandits.

Xia Hongying secretly sent someone to check on Bai Kui, and the results were quickly reported: Bai Kui is generally a good official and has done a lot of things for the people, but this person is quite ambitious and rejoices in his achievements.

Xia Hongying thought about it for a while, and on the one hand, she sent someone to write a note and handed it to Bai Kui, and on the other hand, she deliberately asked Bai Kui about the reward.

It's not that he's afraid of Bai Kui, it's not bad for Bai Kui to come, if he is pulled off the horse, the transferred officials may not be better than him, and it will be the people who will suffer at that time. In addition, he doesn't want too many people to know his whereabouts now, and more is better than less.

It's just that it's not convenient for him to talk to his partners about these things now, so he dealt with them secretly. Just now, he was worried about whether Bai Kui would do anything in the meal, but seeing that Xue Qing didn't react, he was relieved to follow along.

Speaking of Xue Qing, this is also where he is worried, the accident in Heisha Village, everyone was forced to smoke the drug again, and she also put the poison on her lips, and she was not afraid of affecting the toxins in her body. This girl works very hard, or for the sake of Bingyan, she can do anything.

He had already seen that she didn't care about any martial arts, any reputation, or any harm for the people, and the reason why she did it was only because of what Bingyan wanted to do, she would follow and help him achieve it desperately.

Thinking of this, Xia Hongying couldn't help but smile bitterly. I didn't expect to come out this time and encounter such a catastrophe.

In the early morning of the next day, Xia Hongying and the others planned to say goodbye to the idlers in the mountains and fields and continue to hurry.

Mai Qing said gratefully: "You were warmly entertained in Yuzhou City before, and now you have helped us exterminate the Black Sand Village, so we don't need to hide because of the Black Sand Village." We have nothing to reciprocate. ”

"Mai Daxia, you are too polite, we are also on the way, and we are doing our best."

"Young Master Xia, are you going to Jiaozhou next?"

"Exactly, we want to meet the five heroes of Jiaozhou for a while."

"The other side of this White Elephant Mountain leads to Dongning County, which is the only way to Jiaozhou Prefecture, and we plan to return to our hometown later, and we will also pass through there. It's better to let me be the east, and to say goodbye to you in Dongning County, it can be regarded as my heart. ”

Xia Hongying didn't squirm either: "Since that's the case, it's better to be respectful than to obey your fate." ”

Others naturally have no opinion, after this period of time, everyone has long had a tacit understanding, Xia Hongying is equivalent to a spokesperson, Bingyan and Xueqing are generally too lazy to talk to strangers, Xiaolong occasionally gags, Xiao Shuo is always a little transparent in front of people, and only when there are a few of them will they brush up on their sense of existence.

In addition to tacit understanding, this is also trust. Everyone believes that Xia Hongying's decision will not be unfavorable to everyone, and there are really important things, and they will be decided after everyone deliberates. However, everyone also said that in the future, if Xiao Shuo is the spokesperson, if you can't learn martial arts, then exercise your talents in other aspects.

Since you have decided to continue walking, let's solve the breakfast problem first. There was a small river in front of it, and the men were in charge of catching and grilling the fish, and the women were picking some fruit nearby.

Not long after Miao Miao walked out, she saw the field.

"You're still here, don't you leave quickly!"

"Miao Miao, I'm coming to you."

"Field, for the sake of our previous friendship, I should not have seen you. How far you go, they will not let you go when they see you. ”

Tian Ye happily stepped forward and pulled up Miao Miao: "You still care about me!" Come with me, let's go to Jizhou, it's very prosperous over there, I'll let you live a good life. ”

"Let go of me," Miao Miao shook off his hand, "I won't go with you." If you still do this, I'll call someone. ”

"Miao Miao," Tian Ye took her into his arms, "are you still not dead to that little white face?" He doesn't look down on you at all! ”

Miao Miao broke free: "Then you don't have to worry about it, I can follow Brother Mai Qing and them, I won't go with you." ”

"Then I can't help you!"

Tian Ye immediately made a move, although the two were on par in martial arts, Miao Miao's physical strength and Tian Ye could not be compared. Seeing that she was about to be defeated, Miao Miao gave up her attack and ran towards the river. However, he was still defeated halfway and was restrained by the field.

In desperation, Miao Miao saw Xia Hongying who was looking for firewood not far away, and hurriedly shouted: "Young Master Xia, save me!" ”

"Hehe......" Tian Ye smiled, and he took Miao Miao to Xia Hongying.

Xia Hongying glanced at the field and said disdainfully: "You still dare to appear, I'm worried that I have nowhere to find you." ”

Tian Ye grabbed Miao Miao's neck: "Xia Hongying, you'd better be caught obediently, otherwise I'll kill her!" ”

Xia Hongying said disdainfully: "If you want to kill, hurry up, kill me so that I can take your dog's life." ”

"You ......" Tian Ye was speechless, and tears rolled down the corners of Miao Miao's eyes.

"If you don't do it, then let me do it first." After Xia Hongying finished speaking, she raised her sword and stabbed it into the field.

Seeing this, Tian Ye hurriedly pushed Miao Miao towards Xia Hongying and took the opportunity to escape. Xia Hongying hurriedly collected her sword, held Miao Miao, and saw that she was fine, and immediately chased after her.

I don't know if this field is too lucky, or bad luck, the direction of his escape is exactly the river where Mai Qing and they caught fish, and he secretly screamed in his heart, but turned his head and saw Xue Qing on the other side, who was picking wild fruits on the tree with a sword.

Tian Ye knew that although Xue Qing's swordsmanship was powerful, her strength and internal strength were very poor. He sneaked up to Xue Qing's side, hit Xue Qing in the wrist while she didn't have a spare stone, and then struck out to catch Xue Qing before she could use her sword.

Seeing the field, Xue Qing also said in a disdainful tone: "If you don't want to die, let me go, and then hurry up." Otherwise, I'm afraid you don't know how you died. ”

Such a tone and attitude made Tian Ye even more angry, and he said fiercely: "I don't know how I died, but I know that Xia Hongying is dying." ”

Tian Ye escorted Xue Qing to the river, and sure enough, he saw Xia Hongying chasing after her, followed by Miao Miao.

Tian Ye grabbed Xue Qing's neck with the same action and said with the same words: "Xia Hongying, you obediently tie your hands and arrest her, otherwise I will kill her!" ”

After speaking, he looked at Miao Miao again: "Miao Miao, you can see clearly, will he be as ruthless as he was just now." ”

Xia Hongying looked at Xue Qing helplessly, this girl was really her own robbery. Now he hesitated, he definitely couldn't watch her die, but he couldn't die himself, his life was still important for the time being.

Mai Qing also ran over: "Tianye, you quickly release Miss Li, I can guarantee to save your life." ”

"Stop! You are all standing, no one is allowed to move, otherwise you ......" Tian Ye increased the strength of his hand, Xue Qing was silent, but her face showed a painful look.

Xia Hongying was anxious: "Stop, I'll listen to you." ”

"Okay, Xia Hongying, you throw the sword first, throw it farther!"

Xue Qing shouted: "Red Sakura, you don't have to listen to him, just wait for him to live rather than die." ”

"Xueqing, don't speak, we won't let you have an accident." After speaking, Xia Hongying looked around and threw the sword into the river.

Tian Ye said proudly: "See, Miao Miao, this is his attitude." You go over there and get a rattan and tie him up. ”

Xia Hongying was secretly happy in her heart, and said quietly on her face: "Miao Miao, you do what he says." ”

Miao Miao glanced at Xia Hongying very complicatedly, she knew that Xia Hongying did not have herself in her eyes, but such an obvious contrast still broke her heart. But she did as he was told, and wondered how to save him later.

However, when Miao Miao approached Xia Hongying, Xia Hongying suddenly made a move, restrained Miao Miao, and quickly tied her with rattan. Mai Qing and Wormwood wanted to come over to relieve the siege, but they were stopped by Ice Flame.

Xia Hongying took out a dagger from her arms and pressed it against Miao Miao's neck: "Tian Ye, if you don't let go, I will kill her." ”
