Chapter 001: Carriage Escape

Tang An raised his speed to the extreme, saw the blue-green clothes in the distance, hurriedly grabbed a few steps, and stopped in front of Mu Hongyu.

"Senior Sister Mu, are you going home?"

Mu Hongyu's eyes were still a little red and swollen, but the tears had been wiped dry, and when she saw a little disciple in front of her, her face was slightly gloomy.

She has always been pretty-faced to people, and the younger disciples in the sect are afraid of her, and privately call her a cold-faced rakshasa. knew that she was going to marry Wang Rui, who was notorious up and down Shu Mountain, and many people scolded her from the bottom of their hearts, saying that she deserved to be unlucky, who made her look nasty all day long!

"What are you stopping me for? Where do I go to get your? Kid, get out of the way. Stop me again, watch out for your flesh! Mu Hongyu pretended to be vicious and scolded.

However, Tang An didn't eat this at all, his little hand opened, firmly stopped in front, and said calmly: "Senior Sister Mu, if you go home now." I'm afraid I can't leave it for the rest of my life. Do you think your brother will still let you out? Also, I heard all your conversations just now. You want to run away from home now, don't you? ”

Hearing Tang An's words to break his idea of running away from home, Mu Hongyu's expression suddenly changed, and a trace of murderous intent flashed in his eyes. Her left hand reached out violently and strangled Tang An's neck.

With a cold face, Mu Hongyu looked at Tang An with both eyes, and asked word by word, "Did you really hear it?" ”

Her voice was cold, and under the anger, it was already full of murderous intent.

Tang An was choked by the neck, his breathing was not smooth, and his face suddenly turned red: "Ahem~ You put it ...... Let go! ”

The strength in Mu Hongyu's hand not only did not lighten down, but instead worked harder, and said coldly: "Since you have heard everything, I can't allow you to go back and tell the truth." It's so uninhabited that no one will know if I kill you. By the time someone found your body, I'd have escaped from here! ”

Although Mu Hongyu said fiercely, Tang An could see that the murderous intent in her eyes only flashed for a while, and then it was replaced by endless worry. She was just intimidating herself, and she would never actually kill herself.

Sure enough, after a while, the strength in Mu Hongyu's hand lightened, and he asked Tang An instead: "Why don't you beg for mercy?" ”

Tang An touched his neck, the feeling of suffocation just now was really bad, he swore that if anyone pinched his neck again in the future, he would curse that person for a lifetime!

"Why am I asking for mercy? You're not really going to kill me. Tang An said indifferently, and his eyes glanced behind him. He always felt that someone was following him.

Mu Hongyu's eyelids jumped, and she didn't ask Tang An how she saw it. Now she's pressed for time, how can she waste it here?

Glancing at Tang An, who was only six or seven years old, he was still a little kid, Mu Hongyu thought that Tang An was easy to talk to, and said in a low voice: "I won't kill you." But you must promise me not to tell anyone about it! Otherwise, if I really can't escape, I will definitely kill you when I come back! After speaking, Mu Hongyu didn't stop for a moment, and ran quickly towards the bottom of the mountain.

Tang An followed her closely and did not leave a single step.

Mu Hongyu used the light exercise method, and wanted to get rid of Tang An, so Tang An used his strength to eat milk and ran on the mountain road for a while. In short, never let Mu Hongyu's figure leave his sight!

Mu Hongyu couldn't, so she had to stop.

Turning around, Mu Hongyu suddenly drew out his long sword and aimed it at Tang An: "If you follow me again, I will really kill you!" Don't follow me anymore. Back to the mountains! ”

The tip of the sword was against his chest, Tang An could feel the cold chill emanating from the sword, but he was not afraid, and asked Mu Hongyu: "If you want to escape from here, what plan do you have in your heart?" I see that you are only fifteen or sixteen years old, have you ever had the experience of walking rivers and lakes before? And you're penniless, what if you're hungry on the way away? You won't steal, you won't rob, don't you know, a penny is hard to beat a hero? I don't think you'll just come back in the end. In that case, it is better to stay at home. ”

Mu Hongyu's brows furrowed, she was just the eldest lady of the Mu family, although her martial arts were good, but in the final analysis, she was just a rookie with no experience in the rivers and lakes. In this life, the farthest place she went to was Wudang Mountain in the hinterland of Jingzhou, and that time was the 100th birthday of Wudang Sect, and many uncles and uncles in the door went together. The experience of being alone away from home is really none.

Seeing that Mu Hongyu's eyes were slightly worried, Tang An knew that the time had come, so he immediately said his thoughts.

"You don't have to worry about me going to snitch. Because I'm like you, I'm getting out of here! ”

Tang An was about to say anything more, but at this moment, he saw Mu Hongyu's expression change, and he grabbed Tang An, used light exercises, and swept down the mountain.

"Someone was following us on the road just now. Now, I'm going to go home right away and get something. Don't follow me anymore! Mu Hongyu left Tang An and ran towards his house. However, he was pulled by Tang An.

"You can't go back. Now that your brother knows that you are going to escape, he will definitely not let you come out again! Even if there's something important, you can't take it. As he spoke, Tang An took out a stack of silver tickets of one hundred taels from his arms.

"If you really want to escape, listen to me." He didn't give Mu Hongyu any chance to object, and continued, "You take this money, go to the West Market to buy a carriage, two fast horses, and hire a charioteer, and the rest of the money is all used to buy fabrics to fill half of the carriage." Also, the carriage should be as big as possible. Remember, before you go, be transfigured. There shouldn't be many people in Qinghe Town who don't know you, right? Don't ask why, if you really want to get out of here, do what I say. I won't lie to you. Because I'm worse off than you. You don't run away, you just want to marry someone you don't like. If I don't run away, I'll die!" ”

"You're really not going to snitch?" Mu Hongyu asked a very idiotic question, which made Tang An feel very annoyed. Did this woman just want to run away from home in her own anger, without the slightest idea of this escape plan?

Could it be that today, I really met a legendary stupid girl?

Tang An couldn't help but feel a little angry.

But when he turned his head, a smile appeared on the corner of Tang An's mouth. Isn't it just convenient to use her in this way?

…………

Half an hour later, Mu Hongyu returned.

She changed into a power suit and wore a light gauze hat on her head. Although she is the same as the previous dress, it is still easy to recognize her when she meets a familiar person.

After Mu Hongyu explained, Tang An knew that any disguise techniques in martial arts novels were all deceptive.

What kind of human skin masks, they are all ripped out! Makeover is just an ordinary makeup technique.

From this point of view, if modern makeup experts travel to ancient times, they must all be grandmaster-level disguisers.

"You just go shopping like this, and no one will recognize you? You stupid girl, I've convinced you! ”

But fortunately, Tang An was very satisfied with the carriage she bought.

The carriage was large enough to seat five or six people without crowding. However, the inside of the car was neatly stacked with cloth, and there was no room for anyone to sit.

Tang An is really going crazy today, is all this woman's brain cells used to practice martial arts?

"Didn't I say fill up halfway? How is it all filled? ”

Tang An didn't want to talk nonsense, time was pressing, he hurriedly jumped into the car, and threw down more than ten pieces of cloth under the strange eyes of the coachman, so that there was room for two people inside. Then he got into the carriage and, with the knife at his waist, dug a large hole under the back compartment of the carriage, just enough for a man to get underneath it.

When he had done all this, he moved all the rest of the fabric to the front and pretended to be full.

Next, he carefully closed the door in front of the carriage, and then said to the coachman: "I want to ask you to send the cloth in this place to the [Yungui Brocade Shop] in Shicheng. Because the time is relatively urgent, you need to rush over overnight. How about I add an extra 10 taels of silver? ”

As soon as the coachman heard the 10 taels of silver, he had already put Tang An's strange behavior behind him just now, and immediately patted his chest and promised: "No problem! Wrap around the villain. There's never going to be a bit of a problem. ”

10 taels of silver, that's the money he can earn in a month, and of course he's fine.

"Okay, since you're okay, let's hit the road. My father has already said hello over there, and the guys over there will take over the fabrics. Also, these two horses were bought by my father on behalf of the owner of [Yungui Brocade Shop], saying that the horses in Qinghe Town have enough endurance, so you can bring them with you. ”

After Tang An finished speaking, the coachman bowed down to the seat of the car and sang: "Okay, little master, don't worry." I'll bring you this cloth and two Dian horses. ”

After speaking, the driver waved the horsewhip violently, and the horsewhip "snapped" and exploded in the air. The carriage began to move.

The coachman waved his horsewhip and sang a little song, and his expression couldn't stop being happy. "10 taels of silver. Catch up with Ming'er, just to give my mother-in-law a new pair of jewelry. ”

Taking advantage of the coachman's inattention, Tang An waved at Mu Hongyu, and quickly ran towards the back of the carriage, and as soon as he was short, he got under the carriage, and then jumped up, and the whole person got into the car.

When Mu Hongyu saw Tang An's movements, a burst of realization suddenly flashed in his heart, "No wonder he asked me to buy half of the cloth, it turned out to be to get into the carriage unknowingly." ”

She also learned Tang An's movements and slipped into the carriage.

The coachman was in a hurry, and suddenly felt that the carriage behind him suddenly became a lot heavier after some reason after it was jolted for some reason. However, he was thinking about 10 taels of silver at the moment, and in addition to playing against his own mother-in-law, he seemed to have a lot of money to spare. Since he lost money in the last gambling, it seems that he hasn't been to the wine shop for a long time to drink old wine, and this time the remaining money is enough for him to drink for a month. When you get back, be sure to have a drink.

Thinking like this, he didn't feel how heavy the carriage was. This is to catch up with the car, not to mention how energetic.

Tang An and Mu Hongyu were next to each other, sticking to the narrow carriage. Between the two, almost a snort can be heard.

Mu Hongyu's mood is also extremely nervous now.

She secretly glanced at Tang An, she could feel that the little kid in front of her had an extraordinary mind, and made a decision in an instant, taking into account many issues that she had not considered before.

In her thoughts, she rode a fast horse from her home, and then rushed all the way to the checkpoint at the city gate, causing another big battle. Then, in the midst of the chaotic battle, he took the door by himself, and those outer disciples would never be his opponents.

But after that, those outer disciples would immediately notify the nearby inner disciples, and then they would have to face a lot of search. If you're lucky, you should be able to find your aunt before those disciples find you.

Of course, the more likely surname is, to be caught!

"It's a big deal! I'm not even afraid of death, what am I afraid of? For yourself, of course, you have to fight once! ”

"However, it seems that it is much easier now, and those outer disciples may not necessarily think that there are people in this carriage. The success rate of passing the level is also much higher. ”

Tang An felt that Mu Hongyu's heart was beating a little fast, and thought that she was worried that her plan would fail.

Although Tang An was not very sure whether his plan would succeed, at this time, he couldn't help but comfort: "Senior Sister Mu, you don't have to worry. Although I thought about it a little hastily, the chances of this project succeeding are still very high. ”

"First, I asked you to go to Xishi to find a coachman, the coachmen there are all locals in Qinghe Town, and they go in and out of the city gate all day, and the relationship with those gate guards is never too bad, at least they are familiar. As long as we don't encounter the guards who are deliberately making things difficult, we hide in this carriage, and the probability of getting out of the city gate safely is very high. ”

Mu Hongyu nodded: "What you said is good. It was indeed much better for us to be hidden in the carriage than I had originally thought and to ride away, at least not until we left the city gates, without being noticed by the others. However, this carriage still has a big drawback. That is, we must not let anyone know that we are hiding in this carriage. Otherwise, once surrounded, they will be able to catch the turtle in the urn, and then we won't even have time to escape!"

That's why you deliberately pretend to take the coachman to deliver the cloth, and then leave under his nose, and then hide in the carriage before he notices it. In this way, he became our best witness. When he passes the level, he will not arouse suspicion. Because he didn't believe anyone was in this carriage in the first place! ”

Thinking of this, Mu Hongyu suddenly asked, "If those guards must search the carriage, what should we do?" Is it to kill out? ”

Tang An pointed to the big hole underneath: "The base of this carriage is almost parallel to the ground, and the bottom of the carriage is very wide. If you can cling to the bottom of the carriage without falling off, they will never find it. Moreover, at this time of time, it is the time when the flow of people in Qinghe Town is the largest, and people outside the town are rushing out of the city gate to go home, which is the busiest time of the day for the city gate guards. How can they have so much effort to scrutinize? ”

"When people are at their busiest, it is precisely when the mind likes to desert the most. Especially guarding the city gates and collecting poll taxes. They just collected the money for their bosses, and they couldn't get it into their own pockets. This money can only be seen, not taken, you say that if it is changed to you, will you be in a good mood? Definitely depressing! So, the busier they are, the more they will be slacking off! In this way, the better our chances! ”

Of course, all of this is just my speculation. If our luck is really bad and we are discovered. Then the two fast horses I asked you to buy are our last dependence. Hopefully, God forbid, don't let us be so unlucky. ”

After listening to Tang An, Mu Hongyu immediately looked at Tang An with a surprised face: "These things you said were all you came up with at that moment just now?" ”

Tang An nodded: "It's not a difficult thing. ”

Mu Hongyu looked at Tang An's calm appearance, her eyes were surprised, but she was slightly relieved unconsciously.

"I seem to have seen the future of a free life beckoning to me."

…………

The carriage "Gra" and "Gra" sounded, and it staggered towards the city gate.

Slowly, Tang An heard the voices outside getting noisier and louder, mixed with the angry shouts of the guards from time to time.

"Get in line! Don't move, pay money one by one and go out of the city! Don't you know the rules? Stop, poll tax is 2 wen per person, there are 10 of you in total, and there are 2 wen less, are you blind as Lao Tzu? ”

There was a shout of rage, accompanied by the sound of the whip waving, and the sound of the man screaming, followed by the sound of his companions coming to make amends, mixed with the sound of the guards cursing and swearing. At the gate of the city, it is indeed very lively at the moment.

Although everything was expected, Tang An and Mu Hongyu were extremely nervous at the moment, for fear that something was wrong.

"Hurry up, hurry up and hand over the money! There's someone waiting for you in the back! A doorman roared.

At this moment, a man who looked like a small leader came out from behind, pulled his subordinate away, waved his hand impatiently at the back, and asked the pedestrians behind to hurry out, and frowned and untied the neckline, revealing a strong chest full of black fluff.

"Fuck, what's going on today? It's evening, why is it suddenly hot? It's fucking weird! ”

Seeing this, the little minion beside him hurriedly poured a bowl of herbal tea from the table and handed it to the leader, flattering: "My lord, it's hot and humid this day, and it is estimated that it will rain later." It's troublesome to go home on this rainy day, you have worked hard today, and we will leave it here, and my sister-in-law is still waiting for you at home. Why don't you go back first? ”

As he spoke, his eyes rolled, and the little thought in his heart almost hung on his face. Watching the little boss turn his head, hehehe, smiled.

When the little leader saw the expression of this minion, his heart was as clear as a mirror. It's not that I want to embezzle a few coppers and use them to drink, but I think that there is really no oil and water in this guarding gate. Most of the rich people who enter and exit the city gate are people with heads and faces up and down this Shu Mountain, so naturally they don't have to pay fees, and most of the people who need to pay are small traders in the nearby villages, how much oil and water can there be?

"You kid really, can you not behave so obscenely? But it's not easy for brothers, we know it in our hearts. Okay, so I'm going to treat you to a drink today. Go ahead and remember to keep your hands clean. With that, the leader tugged at his sleeves, lifted up halfway, and strode away impatiently.

When the little minion heard this, he didn't believe it at first, but today the adult actually agreed! In the past, he was greeted with a scolding. But thinking of the beautiful lady who just married back in the adult's family, this minion didn't know what dirty things came to mind, so he laughed on the spot.

He turned around and greeted: "Brothers, work hard today, and please eat and drink in the evening!" The rest of the minions burst into a thud. Pointing up the crowd to line up to collect the money is even faster.

Tang An's carriage was certainly moving a lot faster.

Originally, this city gate was large, and it was generally not blocked, but it was afraid that those guards would deliberately make things difficult, and the people behind would be stuck. Now those guards are busy collecting money, naturally hoping that the money will come faster and faster, of course, they can't wait to hope that those who want to get out of the city will get out of the city quickly, and those who don't want to go out of the city, he also can't wait for you to go out of the city, so that he can add another sip of good wine to his dinner table.

Tang An's ears were sharp, and he listened carefully to the movement outside, and a smile suddenly appeared on his face.

Mu Hongyu's internal strength is deeper, her ears and eyes are more intelligent, and she naturally hears more clearly. Her heart in mid-air stabilized a little, and even the hand holding the white jade sword loosened a lot.

"Our luck seems to be good. But now is not the time to relax, the more we get to this last critical juncture, the more things will happen. You're still rehearsing it in your head, and what you're going to do if the guards do want to search the carriage. ”

Tang An glanced down at the hole under the carriage, and thought to himself, "Wait a minute, if those guards really want to search the carriage, she will hide at the bottom of the carriage as I told in advance." The guards pushed the cloth away, and I lay down in the carriage. My body was small, and there were so many pieces of cloth that I would shrink into the cloth when I pushed it down. It's fine if I don't find out, if I do. When the time comes, I will let Na Mu Hongyu attract their attention. As long as I shout, Mu Hongyu is going to run away from marriage, there are not many people in Qinghe Town who don't know her. I'll let her get the attention of the guards, and when the time comes, I'll take the opportunity to escape! ”

Thinking of this, Tang Anxin felt guilty, and glanced at Mu Hongyu, the original pretty face was frosty, but at the moment it was full of expectation and nervousness, and her face was flushed, which was extremely cute.

Tang An's heart couldn't help but flash a hint of apology: "Although I am using you to attract attention, my method is indeed much better than running blindly by yourself." Let's hope things don't really get to that point. If it really gets to that point, I can only say sorry......"

Seeing Tang An staring at him, Mu Hongyu thought that he was worried that his plan would fail, and couldn't help but comfort: "You don't have to worry. If the guards do spot us, I'll get out from under here, fight them, and grab a horse and run away while I get their attention. Don't worry, even if I get caught, I will never give you up! ”

Tang An paused for a moment, and when he saw Mu Hongyu's expression so serious, a sense of shame instantly surged into his heart. "What a stupid girl. I'm here to use her, but she's still thinking about me. ”

Thinking of this, Tang An didn't know why, and suddenly said to Mu Hongyu: "My name is Tang An, from this moment on, we are partners!" In any case, we are going to get out together. If you do get caught, don't be afraid, I'll definitely find a way to come back and save you! Even though I'm only seven years old, I never lie to my own people, and you have to believe me! We're sure we'll be able to get out together! ”

Mu Hongyu looked at Tang An's blushing little face in a daze, at this moment she only felt a trance in front of her, and she was extremely convinced that Tang An would escape with her!

The carriage gurgled forward, and the carriage was unusually dull, accompanied by the occasional rumbling of thunder from the sky, and a storm was coming.

"Stop! What's on the wagon? Open it to check! The guard suddenly stopped the carriage, and there was a "snap" sound, and before the coachman could react, he grabbed it and opened the door, and the bell on the corner of the carriage suddenly made a chaotic sound of "Ding Ling snapped".

The coachman looked at the guard's hands and feet, worried about the fabric, and hurriedly explained: "My lord, there is a cart of silk and satin cloth inside, and the villain has taken over the business and wants to send it to the [Yungui Brocade Shop] in Shicheng. You see it's raining now, and you're in a hurry over there, so you can do it and let the villain pass. ”

As he spoke, the coachman took out ten cents from his bosom and handed it to the guard. "Adults have worked hard, small little thoughts, don't dislike it, take it to tea."

The guard was at the top, and immediately grinned, snorted, and said, "You old man is good, he knows each other very well, go over." ”

The coachman sang, "Thank you, sir." ”

Suddenly, he waved his horsewhip and shouted "go".

The carriage gurgled and began to move forward again.

Hearing this, the hearts of the two people in the car slowly sank again, looked at each other, and a smile suddenly appeared on their faces.

But just then, a fast horse came from the city.

The golden sword logo on the clothes means that this person is clearly an inner disciple of Shushan!

"The king's first seat has been decreed, and the gates of the city are temporarily closed. Quickly inform you of the inspection lord, the eldest lady of the Mu family has been kidnapped by gangsters, let him hurry up and order people to search the whole city! ”
