Chapter Seventy-Three: The Inn

Anbatu didn't even have the strength to sit up, let alone defeat the killers guarding outside, not even to get out of the two carriages. At this time, looking at the two of them again, An Batu, who is famous for his martial arts, has become a burden to Yueyao, who has no effort at all.

He stopped talking for a while, turned his face away and didn't pay attention to Yueyao anymore.

He kept silent about his identity, and Yue Yao couldn't pry his mouth open, but he suddenly felt that the face in front of him was becoming more and more familiar.

"Antuya?" Tentatively spoke out with suspicion.

Unexpectedly, the person on the other side suddenly turned his face, and a rough voice sounded: "Do you know my sister?" Only then did he remember that when he was seriously injured and in a trance, there was indeed a person who was noticed by the pursuer and taken away together.

It turned out to be her.

Anbatu had never seen such a calm and composed woman in such a dangerous situation.

"She's your sister?" Yue Yao would only be more surprised than An Batu. At first, she just felt that her face was similar, and he refused to say his identity, so he said Antuya's name to see his reaction, and he never thought that he and Antuya were brother and sister, "Antuya went to my court, and I was fortunate to see it." So who are you? ”

"I'm her brother Anbatu." Now that the woman has already guessed, it is no longer interesting for An Batu to hide, and asked Yueyao's identity, "Who are you?" ”

"I'm the chef in charge of the state banquet, and my name is Yue Yao." Yue Yao replied lightly.

First, she didn't want to have anything involved, and secondly, she didn't deal with Antuya so badly, if her brother knew, wouldn't she be in trouble with another powerful character.

But if you fall together, you can be regarded as friends of life and death, and it doesn't hurt to say a name.

The carriage was still moving forward, as if there was no end in sight, Yue Yao was familiar with the streets and alleys in Yingdu City, and out of the boundary, he couldn't find the north.

She was a little flustered, and she faintly hoped that Wei Xuanmo would find out that she was missing and come in time to save her little life.

"Where are they taking us?" Yue Yao asked An Batu.

Anbatu closed his eyes and recuperated, his chest slowly rising and falling, only to hear the answer: "Go and see the person behind you." "Since leaving the Western Regions, the pursuit has not stopped, he has long been exhausted, and he has also thought about the person who is most likely to kill him in the endless darkness.

The clearer the guess in his mind became, and the farther he went, the more unexpectedly calm he became.

"No, I have to think of a way, they took you away because they wanted something from you, and they won't kill you if they don't achieve their goal. And I'm a passing, and I could kill me at any moment. Yue Yao thought about it for a while, felt that it was extremely reasonable, and was full of worries about his situation, so he rummaged around in the carriage again.

She took out the dagger hidden in her arms, and resolutely and distressedly picked off the ruby, and used a sharp knife to cut a small piece of wood, the sound of the car was clear and heavy, Yue Yao kissed the ruby and murmured, "Goodbye." He threw it down the little hole.

The carriage drove by, and the sun shone brightly, and the ruby was particularly bright.

They don't seem to have left the capital city yet, and this realization makes Yueyao gradually feel joy and comfort.

The ruby was engraved with a small word "lamp" by her, if anyone can pick it up, her Yueyao's name can be regarded as known to everyone in this Yingdu City, and no one is worried about turning a blind eye.

The carriage stopped in the backyard, and Yue Yao and An Batu were separated, and the two lived in different rooms.

There were many people coming and going in the inn, and there were many strange people and strange things, and everyone only glanced curiously at the man wearing the ghost horse mask, and then looked away.

Yue Yao opened her mouth and wanted to shout for help, but An Batu seemed to notice that she took two steps and pretended to accidentally bump into her, and then glanced at the person in front of her, she hurriedly lowered her head, unaware.

It seems that you are on your own.

Yue Yao was guarded by a special person, she looked up at the big man with an expressionless face, and tried to talk to him: "You all call the person wearing the mask an adult, who is he?" What grown-up? Shangshu-sama? Lord Prefect? Lord Wu? Lord Liu? ”

No matter what Yue Yao said, he just stood at the door upright, and he couldn't force a word.

Yue Yao had no choice but to mutter, "Shouldn't he be a dumb person?" She had just vaguely heard that the lord seemed to have ordered him to leave the city tomorrow, and tonight was his last chance.

Hasn't that ruby been found yet? It shouldn't be.

"I want to eat." Yue Yao shouted, seeing that the man didn't squint as if he didn't see it, he walked two steps in front of him angrily, and repeated, "I'm hungry, I want to eat, and the captives are also people, and they also want to eat." ”

The man then put his eyes on her face, glanced at her, and immediately looked away, and said indifferently: "Xiao Er will deliver the food to the room later." ”

"I don't ...... I'm going to eat in the lobby, which is spacious. "What is in mind can be said to be very obvious.

The man looked at her coldly, with a murderous aura, Yue Yao was defeated first, and compromised: "Okay, okay." Then I'll wait. After saying that, he obediently went to the table and sat down.

After eating, night fell outside the window, and candles were lit in the room, and Yue Yao began to behave again: "I want to take a bath." ”

She no longer looked at the man's cold face, and kept repeating, "I want to take a bath." ”

The man said impatiently, "No. Then he saw a knife brush beside him peek out of the ground, shining with a cold cold light.

The unsheathed knife stared at Yue Yao's eyes, she paused, time gradually passed, and deliberately ignored his threat, scoundrel said: "I have been stuffy in the carriage for a day, and my body is sweaty and smelly." I want to take a bath, and you won't let me take a shower......"

"I'll ......" Yue Yao couldn't say anything that could threaten this person for a long time, he simply turned his face and ignored it completely, his eyes were dark, Yue Yao took off his coat with a "bang", "I'll take off my clothes!" ”

The man immediately turned his head, faced the wall, and said, "What are you doing!" ”

"I'm going to take a bath, I'm going to take a shower. Otherwise, I'll tell you, boss, that you're insulting me! As he spoke, he walked to the door and was about to shout, but he was gagged.

"I'm scared of you. Stay there and don't go anywhere. Then he opened the door and went out.

Yue Yao is a weak woman, and she doesn't have any internal strength and martial arts, so she is not so strict with her. After the man left, Yue Yao was the only one left in the house, she went to the window and looked out to the left and right, and then came back and sat down peacefully.

The guards brought Xiao Er back, and when they saw that she was still sitting quietly at the table, their vigilance was slightly reduced. Xiao Er sent bath water and other things that should be needed for bathing, Yue Yao asked the man to wait outside the door on the grounds of "boyfriend does not accept kiss", and the man was stunned for a moment and went out.
