Tong Qing is worthy of being a tiger in the gate, with excellent martial arts, both offensive and defensive, a strange knife dances like a tiger, and those black-clothed people who came to assassinate him can no longer get close to Cui Wenqing's rest.

However, it is a pity that the number of escort cavalry is too small, and the black-clothed assassins are numerous and well-prepared.

At this time, only a sharp howl was heard, just like the sound of the night owl in the dense forest, which made people feel cold.

The howling sound was unbearable, and the black-clothed assassins immediately gave up their attack on Cui Wenqing, turned around without hesitation, and disappeared into the dense forest in a blink of an eye.

It all happened so fast that the knights looked at each other, not knowing whether they should go into the forest to chase after them.

Cui Wenqing thought for a moment and said categorically: "The enemy is strong, don't rush to pursue, or wait for reinforcements to arrive before making plans." ”

Tong Qing nodded yes, still guarding Cui Wenqing's horse with a guarded face.

At this time, a person suddenly appeared in the forest, and it was Ning Zhen, who had just gone to meet the enemy.

Seeing that she seemed to return unscathed, Cui Wenqing relieved her mind and asked with concern: "Ning Huwei, are you okay?" ”

Ning Zhen nodded lightly, but the expression on her face was indescribably solemn: "Master Cui, the assassin I fought with just now has strong martial arts, and it is not simple, looking at his martial arts moves, it seems that he is a member of the Ming Sect." ”

"What? Mingjiao?! ”

Cui Wenqing and Su Shi looked at each other in surprise, and they both felt indescribably strange.

Su Shi frowned and said: "It is rumored that those bandits of the Ming Sect take Jiangnan Road as their main place of activity, but I didn't expect that in this far north of Yuzhou, there is also the shadow of the Ming Sect. ”

"Actually, it's not surprising." Cui Wenqing quickly figured out the key to this, and said, "There are hundreds of thousands of people resettled from Jiangnan Road this time, and it is common for Mingjiao demons to hide in it, but I can't figure it out, why did Mingjiao come to assassinate me, a little pacification envoy?" ”

Ning Zhen sighed lightly and said, "Although the Ming Sect demon who fought with me just now was injured by me, he slipped away too fast and failed to capture him alive, otherwise he would have been able to torture the truth." ”

Cui Wenqing also sighed with the same feeling, but he kept thinking in his mind, and muttered to himself: "If the Mingjiao intervenes in the chaos of the people, it will be even more difficult, I have a hunch that the Mingjiao will definitely make a big move in Suizhou." ”

Su Shi thought for a while and speculated: "Could it be that the people are in turmoil and the Ming Sect is planning behind the scenes?" ”

Cui Wenqing shook his head and said: "The people are in turmoil because they want to return to Jiangnan Road, which is headed by those big clans, as for Mingjiao, even if it is involved, the role is very limited, and now the most important thing for us is to find out the true intentions of Mingjiao, so as to prescribe the right medicine and eradicate these evil spirits." ”

"Then Brother Wen Qing has a plan?!" Su Shi hurriedly asked.

Cui Wenqing smiled faintly and said: "Only by knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent can one not be defeated in a hundred battles, and the only way to investigate the whereabouts of Mingjiao is to have Lao Ning's escort." ”

"What? Let me go? Why?! Ning Zhen was suddenly unwilling.

Cui Wenqing said with a smile: "When it comes to dealing with the Ming Sect, Ning Huwei can be said to be a rare master in the court, plus your six doors to track down your whereabouts, and spy on all the news, all of them are sophisticated, all of them are understandable, and you will definitely get twice the result with half the effort." ”

After finishing speaking, Cui Wenqing seemed to be afraid that Ning Zhen would refuse, and quickly added: "If they can't find out the true intentions of the Qingming Sect, then they may endanger the life of this official at any time. ”

Ning Zhen gave him a blank look, but there was a light snort at the end of his nose, obviously disdainful of arguing, but it was obvious that he did agree by default.

A moment later, the cavalry of the escort battalion arrived.

Cui Wenqing did not let the cavalry pursue, waved his hand and ordered all the guards to enter the city and station, wait for Ning Zhen to find out the whereabouts of Mingjiao, and then make plans.

At this moment, the lights in the courtyard of Lu's Village are blurry, swaying, just like the stars in the sky flashing with a moving luster color.

Lu Ruoxuan changed into a dress as white as snow, and Shi Shiran came to the piano room to caress the ancient crested qin, the sound of the piano was sad and sad, cold and indifferent, just like her current mood.

I don't know how long it took before a sudden man in Tsing Yi broke the peace, and the beautiful sound of the piano also stopped abruptly.

This man in green clothes wears a cyan ghost mask, and the green fangs are very terrifying, standing in front of the steps where the light and darkness meet, it adds a ghostly temperament, which makes people feel indescribably creepy.

Looking at the man in Tsing Yi standing in front of the door, Lu Ruoxuan's brows furrowed imperceptibly, but his ordinary face was not shocked, and he got up and said lightly: "Yi Zuo came to the cold house in person, and I don't know what advice he has?" ”

The man in Tsing Yi named "Yi Zuo Envoy" smiled coldly, and his slightly hoarse voice just spread: "Without him, I just came to meet the disciple below, and I took the liberty to disturb Miss Lu." ”

Hearing this, Lu Ruoxuan obviously showed an angry look, but she endured it very well, and quickly extinguished the trace of anger, and her tone was as cold as just now: "Ling Zhi took medicine just now, and he has already fallen asleep, and he is concerned about Lao Yizuo." ”

"Ji, Ling Zhi is my apprentice, why do you need to have a hard job, but Miss Lu, you, when I saw that Master Cui today, I seem to be a little uneasy!"

"It's not that she's restless, and the little woman is just a little ashamed in the face of justice and justice."

"Haha, Miss Lu is really a sincere person!" The man in Tsing Yi smiled a little teasingly, "In this way, after listening to Cui Wenqing's words today, you are already a little tempted, and you are ready to lead the family to stay?!" ”

Faced with this question, Lu Ruoxuan didn't answer, just looked at him coldly.

The man in Tsing Yi sneered and said, "But the girl doesn't have to worry about this, maybe at this time, Cui Wenqing's head is already on the way to Lu's Zhuangyuan." ”

"What?!"

Lu Ruoxuan lost her voice, and finally couldn't help but lose her face, obviously surprised by the words of the Tsing Yi man.

The man in Tsing Yi sneered: "This Lord Cui sent by the imperial court is not simple, he has ruined my Mingjiao many times, and he was bumped into by me when he came to Suizhou this time, and he should be punished." ”

Lu Ruoxuan returned to normal, although her heart was pounding and beating, her tone was a little calm: "Easy to do, assassinating the imperial court official is a serious crime, and besides, it is still a minister, if you do this, it will bring us disaster." ”

The man in Tsing Yi sneered: "Disaster? Hehe, Patriarch Lu, don't forget, we are now grasshoppers on a rope, and you can't run away if I die. ”

Hearing this, Lu Ruoxuan felt embarrassed, and her heart couldn't help but feel sour.
