Chapter 227: Rescuing the Old Demon
Min Hu pretended to be uncertain and said, "Zhao Wu's task is special, and he shouldn't be able to come back before the end of the year......"
I thought in my heart, I definitely won't be able to come back before the end of the year, the Xixia Kingdom is far away, and the old demon has been missing for more than a year, where is it so easy to find, and I have to rescue it. No matter how bad it is, we have to bring the information back......
Xu Lanyin rather didn't hear this exciting news. It turned out that Zhao Wu went to the Western Xia Kingdom to find and rescue a person called the old demon who had lost contact, which was much more dangerous than going to check the smuggling mines. No wonder Zhao Wu was reluctant to reveal any news to her at the beginning, he must have been afraid that she would be too anxious and anxious.
She was so angry that she pouted her face.
Min Hu saw that Xu Lan was unhappy, and his face changed unpredictably. I can't help but regret telling the truth, this girl is good at observing words and feelings, and it is possible to guess the second half of the sentence after listening to the first half of the sentence. For some reason, he is a little afraid of this Xu girl now, and he is especially afraid that she will be angry.
Min Hu hurriedly explained, "It wasn't my intention to let Zhao Wu carry out that task, it was...... It's the people above. He blushed at his lack of responsibility, but he just didn't want Xu Lanyin to be unhappy with him. After a pause, he explained again, "He heard that Zhao Wu's martial arts are strong, and he is as careful as a hair, especially knowing that Zhao Wu is a lay disciple of the master of quitting, he is extremely appreciative and let him go by name." Miss Xu, don't worry, there are more than a dozen people with them, all of them are martial arts masters, and the people who will pick them up will definitely come back safely. ”
Zhao Wu definitely wouldn't say to others that quitting idiots was his master. The person above knows the quitter, not only does he know how powerful the quit idiot is, but he also knows that Zhao Wu is his disciple, and he should be very familiar with the quit idiot......
Xu Lanyin didn't even have a smiling face, and began to hypnotize Minhu.
After Minhu fell asleep, she went back to Minjia's small courtyard.
Several children got up, and the laughter of Xu Lanting and Zhao Xingchen floated out of the small window of the upper room. Xu Lanyin remembered that she was interrupted by Minhu just now, and forgot to talk about Zhao Xingchen. Let's talk about it when Minhu is not busy in the future.
Xu Lanyin went directly to the west wing and sat at the head of the bed thinking about Fujian's words.
"Old demon", this name is not the person's real name when you hear it, but a pseudonym, and what other information. Then, the old demon is very likely to be a spy of the Daimyo Dynasty to break into the Western Xia Kingdom, just as the golden shopkeeper of the Western Xia Kingdom entered the Ming Dynasty. It should be that the old demon has some top-secret information, and he was discovered by the Western Xia Kingdom, and he hid it. The people above Minhu sent so many masters to find and rescue him, even if he died, he had to bring the information back......
Xu Lanyin's heart tightened. She secretly complained about Minhu and the people above him, Zhao Wu was just a catcher, why did he let him do the work of the dead soldier. This is not in line with the employment system and is a form of forced exploitation...... It's infuriating! When Zhao Wu comes back this time, he must let him work hard and be promoted to a big official. Those who work hard govern people, and they always have to be controlled by others......
Xu Lan was so angry that she was about to lose her mind, and she thought about it wildly.
It was time for dinner, and Zhangqi came to invite her, and she went out.
Mother Liu saw that she was not in a high mood and had eaten less, and said, "What's wrong with Miss Xu?" If you don't feel well, go and rest. ”
Xu Lanyin shook her head and said, "It's okay, it's just a little tired." ”
Several children have eyesight, play by themselves, and don't bother her.
At night, Xu Lan couldn't sleep because of tossing and turning. finally fell asleep, and dreamed that Zhao Wu was being chased and killed. In a strange town, Zhao Wu pulled a man and ran forward desperately, and many people behind him were chasing with big knives.
chased across the street, chased through the alley, and in a blink of an eye, the man Zhao Wu was pulling was replaced by Xu Lanzhou again. Xu Lanzhou was also injured, and half of his shoulder was stained red with blood. They ran as fast as they could, and came to a high wall, where the people behind had already caught up and raised their daggers...... Xu Lan woke up with fright, and her heart was beating wildly.
She sat up, sweat on her back and forehead, her head buzzing, and her heart was about to jump out. Zhao Wu alone has already left her six gods without a master, how can there be a Xu Lanzhou again. Wouldn't he be in any danger?
Xu Lanyin fumbled and hung the thick Luo tent on the hook. The moonlight outside the window was unusually bright, and even through the thick window paper, it illuminated the room hazy. Zhao Xingchen next to him slept soundly, snoring lightly.
The scene took her out of the nightmare completely. It turned out to be a dream!
Xu Lanyin took out a handkerchief from under the pillow to wipe her sweat, put on embroidered slippers on the ground, and came to the window with her clothes. Pushing the small window open a crack, a cold night breeze blew in, and her mind was clear.
The half-moon hung high in the sky, and there were sparse cold stars scattered around, which made it even more chilly. Another world under the night sky, I don't know what Zhao Wu is doing.
It is said that the dream is reversed, Xu Lanzhou is in Nanping County, how can it be in the Western Xia Kingdom. From this point, it shows that the dream just now is not accurate, Zhao Wu was not chased and killed, he may have found the old demon and brought him out of the Western Xia Kingdom, and is on the way back. Moreover, the high wall is a dead end for others, but for Zhao Wu, it can survive in a desperate situation......
Xu Lan kept giving psychological hints to herself, and her mood gradually calmed down, closed the small window and went to bed.
Under another sky, the moonlight was still bright, and Zhao Wuzheng was running with a big man running hard. Running through the streets, running through the alleys, a high wall blocked their way.
Dahan looked back at the pursuers, took out an oiled paper bag from his arms, handed it to Zhao Wu and said, "Run, leave me alone." As he spoke, he rushed over and fought for his life with the pursuers.
Zhao Wu took the oil paper bag with one hand and put it in his arms, and the other hand did not let go of the big man. said, "Follow me and live." ”
He saw a towering tree not far from the wall, so he pulled the big man and ran to the bottom of the tree, hugged the big man's waist and jumped on the high branches, and again used the three-legged skills to kick the branches and jumped up the city wall.
If it was a big man with such a heavy weight and no martial arts, Zhao Wu's two moves and three legs would not be able to be completed so beautifully, and he didn't know if he could jump up to the city wall. And this big man's martial arts are also high, and while being driven, he also kicked the trees and walls, taking advantage of the trend, which made Zhao Wuqing save a lot.
The pursuers had already reached the bottom of the city wall, looking at the high wall and the two heads on it, and shooting arrows upwards in unison. Just now I wanted to catch the live mouth, but I didn't want to release the arrows, and I drove them here. Thinking that the high walls gave them nowhere to escape, they hindered their pursuit.
Zhao Wu and Da Han Su turned their heads to dodge the arrows and ran towards the other side of the city wall.
This was not wartime, and there was only one soldier standing guard at a long distance on the city wall.
By the time the soldiers saw them and ran here, they had already jumped off the wall.
