Bai Hong looked at him and said slowly: "I want you to help me kill someone!" ”

Leng Yi frowned, and said with a big tongue: "I said, I don't take any tasks." ”

"It's not a task for the organization, no one entrusts me, it's my own business, I need to find someone to do it, that is, I'm the delegator, you're going to finish it, and I'll pay you out of my own pocket. Nothing to do with my organization. - Don't worry, this man is definitely a damn person! ”

"Your martial arts are above me, can't you just complete it yourself?"

"If I could do it myself, I wouldn't have to fight for you." After saying that, Bai Hong shook her body again, and her chest and abdomen were overturned, and she couldn't hold it down. She forced a smile and said, "Only you can complete this matter, no one else can." ”

Leng Yi said: "Well, since I lost the bet, I can only listen to you, just say, who do you want me to kill?" ”

"The son-in-law of the lord of the Tubo Missan tribe, named Pu Ziqing."

Leng Yi smiled: "How did you know the son-in-law of the Tubo Lord?" Still at odds with him? ”

A faint sadness drifted through Bai Hong's eyes, and he said, "He is my senior brother." ”

"Oh? Your brother? Haha, don't ask, you must be better, but, he failed you, changed his mind, coveted the glory and wealth of the Tibetan lord, and became a son-in-law, you hate him, all want to kill him, but you can't do it yourself, so let me help, right? ”

Bai Hong didn't smile, and the flush on her originally peony-like delicate face receded. Lowering his head, he said, "This story is funny, isn't it?" ”

Leng Yi quickly restrained his smile, coughed, and said, "I'm joking, it can't be true, right?" ”

Bai Hong stood up, walked to the window, gently pushed open the window, let the drizzle float in, pounced on her beautiful face, and said softly: "It's a very funny story, but I personally walked through it step by step, looking back, I think it's funny, how can I like such a person?" ”

Leng Yi walked over, stood beside her, and said, "Don't be sad, I'll help you kill this negative person!" ”

"Thank you, I will give you five hundred taels of gold as a thank you."

"No!" Leng Yi said: "You helped me find my female guard, and you helped me deliver letters, and helped each other, and the two were clear." ”

"No!" Bai Hong's voice was very soft, he turned his head to look at him, and said: "I'm just looking for people and delivering letters, there is no danger, but you are going to kill people, moreover, you are going deep into the hinterland of Tubo to kill people, that Lord Misan lives in the castle, and there are many guards and armor guards, and it is much more difficult to kill him than the Tu gang leader." I am disturbed that you do not receive remuneration. ”

"Well, I'm short of money right now, anyway."

Bai Hong said: "You don't know the Tibetan language, and you don't know the way, I will find you a guide and lead you in." When can you go? ”

"Go back and explain and go."

"Okay, on the morning of the third day of your return to Yinling, I will take your guide to wait for you on the side of the road outside Yinling City. I'll get your horses and bags ready. You don't need to prepare it yourself. You can rest assured on your wife's side, I will arrange for someone to protect you secretly. ”

Leng Yi agreed.

Bai Hong opened the cabinet and took out a small box and put it in front of Leng Yi: "This is five hundred taels of gold." ”

Leng Yi smiled and said, "Won't you pay half of it first?" ”

"No need. I'm sure you'll be up to the task. With that, Bai Hong lowered her head, walked to the window with a gloomy expression, and looked up at the rainy night.

Leng Yi lifted the box and said in a low voice: "Rest early!" I'm leaving! ”

Bai Hong seemed to be in a state of flux, still looking out the window at the drizzle, without speaking or looking back.

――――――――――――――――――

One morning after a few days.

Leng Yi changed his outfit, wore a human skin mask, and left Yinling County.

He said to Zhuo Qiaoniang and Master Dong that he was a person who paid a private visit to observe the people's feelings, and he might go for a long time. Let Master Dong be responsible for the distribution of support food. And assist the chief bookkeeper to act as an agent for the official affairs of the yamen. Master Dong and they are used to Leng Yi's private visits, and every time they come back, they have a great harvest.

Leng Yi brought a string of jewels left by the Tibetan merchant Damaga and the valuable gold and silver jewelry on his body, and put the one collected by Zhuo Qiaoniang back into the necklace and took it away. Maybe this time I can find Damaga's relatives and return the things to others.

Since it's going to kill someone, the sniper rifle in the lockbox is to be carried.

He carried the lockbox on his back, and in the morning light, he went out of the city with the people who got up early and went out of the city with their burdens and carts.

After walking a few miles along the official road, I saw three horses tied under a big tree on the side of the road, and there were two people standing in front of them, one of them, dressed in white like snow, was Bai Hong. Next to her is a young girl, with slightly dark skin and big eyes, and from the contours of her appearance, she doesn't look like a Great Song person.

Leng Yi walked over and said, "I've been waiting for a long time." ”

Bai Hong nodded lightly and said to the girl next to me, "He is Brother Leng." Take him to the city of Missan, and listen to him in everything. ”

"Yes!" The girl replied in a crisp voice.

Bai Hong said to Leng Yi: "She is your guide, a native of Tubo, and his parents are both businessmen in Bazhou. Her name is Jia Zhen. ”

"Jiazhen, this name is very special."

The girl said, "Jiazhen means Caixia, because my mother said that when I was born, it was in the morning, and the sky was full of Caixia." ”

"Well, that's good!"

Jia Zhen smiled, revealing a neat mouthful of small white teeth, especially the two tiger teeth, which were pointed and very cute.

Bai Hong turned around and took a leather-made water bladder from the bag tied to the horse under the tree, pulled out the stopper, and the girl took out three silver bowls from the bag, Bai Hong poured the wine full, and handed it to Leng Yi and Jiazhen respectively.

The three of them drank it all.

Bai Hong said: "Immediately, there will be a hundred taels of silver and some copper coins, which are for you to entangle on the road." Food, water, and wine are prepared for you. He took out two folded pieces of paper from his bosom and said, "This is the customs clearance document for the two of you." Identity is a trader. ”

Leng Yi took it and looked at it, but the name written on it was Leng Liulang, and he couldn't help laughing, he knew that only the imperial court in the capital could handle the documents for leaving the customs, and said, "You can still get this, no problem, right?" ”

"You pass through the border with a swagger, there is absolutely no problem!"

"That's good!" He put the paper away.

"For the convenience of the road, the document I opened indicated that you two are master servants and foreign merchants."

"Okay,"

Bai Hong took out another piece of paper and handed it to him: "This is his portrait." ”

Leng Yi took it and looked at it carefully, he looked quite handsome, no wonder he could win the hearts of beauties, but it was a pity that it was a heartless embroidered pillow.

Leng Yi returned the portrait to Bai Hong. Bai Hong was stunned for a moment and said, "You don't keep it?" ”

"Don't worry, I will never forget the portrait!" Leng Yi said, "You can't be mistaken." What's more, there is also a name identity to confirm. ”

Bai Hong nodded, took the portrait, gently tore it into pieces, and threw it in the mud ditch on the side of the road.

Leng Yi and Jiazhen turned over their horses, said goodbye to Bai Hong, whipped their horses, and headed to the border.

They rode fast horses, and in the afternoon they reached the border.

Sure enough, with the help of customs clearance documents, they passed the border inspection of both sides smoothly. Entered the Missan Division's landing realm.

The prosperity of Misan is far inferior to that of the Great Song Dynasty, not to mention anything else, this official road alone is greatly inferior, not only potholes, rugged, but also very narrow. As a result, it was difficult for their horses to keep up their speed, and in the evening they spent the night in a small village on the border with Missan.

There are many Han people here, and Leng Yi's language can still solve it, but after two days of further progress, not only is it sparsely populated, but almost all of them are Qiang and Tibetan, and Leng Yi can't understand it at all.

At noon that day, when they came to a canyon, they heard the roar of a torrent resounding throughout the valley. Jiazhen suddenly stopped the horse, looked at the canyon and smiled bitterly, and said, "Brother Leng, we can't get through here!" Because the wooden bridge is crossed! ”

Leng Yi looked up, and sure enough, there were only two piers left on both sides of the river valley. The torrents in the valley are like galloping horses. Majestic.

Leng Yi said: "Can we take a detour?" ”

"It can be, it's just that the road to detour is very long, and I'm afraid that it will be dark on the road today."

"No problem, we're not in a hurry. It's summer now, so it doesn't matter if you sleep in the wild. What about you? ”

"Of course I'm fine, I've been watching sheep in the field since I was a kid, and I've slept on the grass."

"Let's go!"

The two rode horses and walked up the valley. Because there is no road, the speed is even slower, and when it is about to get dark, Jiazhen said: "Big brother, let's find a sheltered place to live while we can see it, and wait until dawn tomorrow morning before we leave, how about it?" ”

"Okay!" The two of them walked and searched, and finally, they saw a small forest. Leng Yi said: "Let's do it here." ”

The two dismounted and led the horses slowly into the woods.

Jiazhen took food and water from her bag, put it on the ground, took off the saddle, let the horse go, and let it graze by itself. Then he sat on the grass with Leng Yi and began to eat.

As soon as they ate a few bites, they faintly heard a call in the distance, it was a woman's call, and Leng Yi couldn't understand the shout, and looked at Jiazhen.

Jiazhen's face changed, and said, "It's not good, someone called for help!" ”

Leng Yi flew out of the grove and looked at the sound. I saw two horses galloping towards the grassland in the distance under the sunset. The sound of horses' hooves was unusually crisp in the silence of the grassland.

Running closer, Leng Yi saw clearly that on the horse in front of him, there was a woman on her back, who was wearing Tibetan clothes and was screaming desperately.

Leng Yi stabbed and rushed over, he didn't dare to let go of the flying knife, for fear of accidentally injuring the girl, he was also a master of art, almost facing the galloping horse, Leng Yi jumped into the air, hugged the man on horseback, and the two rolled down together.

No one was in control, and the girl on the horse fell off her horse. She struggled to get up, and when she looked back, she saw that the young Han man who rushed up had already twisted the arm of the man who was holding her back, wrapped it around her neck, and lifted it up.

At this moment, I heard a whoosh, and an arrow flew in, hitting Leng Yi's heart!
