Chapter 44: Huh?

After seven days of blockade, the gates of Tongzhou City were finally opened, and the merchants in the city had already blocked the gates on all sides, and they were lining up to leave the city.

At the same time, in Guqi Town, ten miles away from Tongzhou City, Cheng Ziyi was communicating with Tiangu and the gang of the Ma Gang, and five other Tiangang-level killers stood around guarding their boxes.

"Boss Cheng, it's understandable that we won't let us see this goods, but you said that these thousands of boxes of things, just rely on you people, how much effort does it take to move here from the city little by little?" A big man with a rough black face shouted at Cheng Ziyi, and spit nails splashed out of his mouth.

Before the opening of Tongzhou, Cheng Ziyi had already contacted the people of the Ma Gang, and now the swarthy man in front of him was named Liang Guli, a captain of the Tongzhou branch of the Ma Gang, and there were more than 200 men under his hands, and he was also a figure in this Tongzhou City branch.

Dodging the splashing spittle, Cheng Ziyi explained with a wry smile: "Captain Liang, this is what my master meant, just bother the brothers of the Ma Gang to wait more, we must do it as soon as possible." ”

When it comes to the speed of delivery, Cheng Ziyi can't help it. The silver coins of the Dark Key Pavilion have all been boxed, and they are being escorted out of the city by Tiangang-level killers. But after all, the number is too large, and it will definitely not be able to get out once or twice, and today's several city gates are blocked by merchants, which is particularly crowded, so this efficiency naturally cannot be improved.

Liang Guli said with a disdainful expression: "If I let my brothers go to luck, I would have been on the road by now." We haven't seen anything in our caravan, so why can we still keep an eye on your?"

He has seen a lot of businessmen like Cheng Ziyi, and they all treat their goods as treasures, and they don't want outsiders to see them. Now that the city is closed again, although there is a crisis of war and chaos, there are also many speculative traders who want to take this opportunity to take advantage of it.

This trader surnamed Cheng rushed to Tiansheng with thousands of boxes of goods, and he must have the same goal. When the royal capital reopens, there will definitely be a huge shortage of food, clothing, and daily necessities in the city, and this is also the time when prices are at their highest, and speculators will not let go of such an opportunity.

"Hehe, Captain Liang and the brothers will take care of it for a while, and when we get to the next village and town, I will invite the brothers to drink. "Cheng Ziyi is still playing haha, this horse gang is too reckless, and it is difficult to communicate.

"Hmph, anyway, as soon as possible, anyway, it's your own time that is delayed, and you will bear the loss!" Liang Guli snorted, walked back to the shade of the stable, and sat down against the pillar.

The price given by Cheng Ziyi was not small, and he hired more than 200 of his brothers at one time, and paid by the day. After finishing this order, he can rest for a while, so although Liang Guli kept complaining, he didn't mean anything more serious.

"Heh, I thought I was carrying gold!" Liang Guli, who was a little unhappy, sneered again, covered his face with the felt hat on his head, and began to take a nap.

Liang Guli, whose eyelids were covered by a felt hat, didn't see it, and when the word "gold" appeared, the Cheng family guards present all turned their heads to look at him, with a murderous aura in their eyes.

Cheng Ziyi was also taken aback by Liang Guli's sudden words, and for a moment he was still thinking about whether to order Tiangu and them to kill him, and after realizing that this was just the other party's joke, Cheng Ziyi breathed a sigh of relief, and at the same time cast a look at Tiangu and them, signaling them not to move.

Tiangu quietly approached and whispered: "Right Protector, I'm afraid it won't be peaceful along the way." ”

Hearing this, Cheng Ziyi shrugged his eyebrows, stared at Tiangu with interest, and said, "The entire Shengxin Kingdom is not peaceful now, let alone us?" But compared to the twists and turns that may be experienced along the way, I am more curious about how you explained to the pavilion master. ”

Cheng Ziyi's explanation naturally refers to the fact that Tiangu killed Tianmeng. This morning, not long after he talked to Qin Sixteen, Tiangu returned to the stronghold by himself, Qin Sixteen had a short conversation with Tiangu, and then Tiangu was ordered to come with him to Mabang to sit here.

Tiangu's face was expressionless, and he responded indifferently: "It's nothing, Tianmeng's hand first, I was just forced to fight back, and the pavilion master didn't punish me." ”

The Tiangang-level killers collectively went out to move, and naturally it was impossible for all of them to appear outside with masks, so everyone put on human skin masks, although the time was a little rough and tight, but as long as they couldn't see their original appearance, it was enough.

Looking at Tiangu's unnatural face, knowing that he didn't want to say more, Cheng Ziyi naturally wouldn't ask to the bottom of it. In fact, what he was curious about was not why Qin Sixteen didn't punish Tiangu, but why Qin Sixteen changed the task arrangement for Tiangu.

Just two days ago, Qin Sixteen personally said to Cheng Ziyi that he would let Tiangu stay to protect Xiao Duxue. But now he has to take Tiangu on the road again, could it be that Tianmeng's death made Qin Sixteen lose trust in Tiangu?

But if he didn't trust Tiangu, why did he arrange for Tiangu and himself to come to the horse gang to carry out the mission? Although there were still a few Tiangang-level killers in the same company, Qin Sixteen obviously asked him and Tiangu to lead the team. If you can't guess something, you won't guess it, Cheng Ziyi gave up thinking and began to count the wooden boxes piled up in front of her with Tiangu.

When Cheng Ziyi asked about the conversation with Qin Sixteen, a hint of coldness flashed in Tiangu's eyes, but he was quickly suppressed by him. Qin Sixteen's ability was much greater than he had imagined, and he wasn't sure if he had shown his feet to Qin Sixteen.

Although at this moment, Tian Gu was "looking as usual" to help Cheng Ziyi do the inventory of the wooden boxes coming and going, checking the seals on the boxes and the surrounding damages one by one, but his mind had already returned to the scene when he was talking to Qin Sixteen today.

Tiangu didn't deliberately return late, but he was too excited to kill Tianmeng just now, even if he didn't sleep all night, he couldn't suppress the pitch-black internal qi in his body, so he needed time to calm himself.

This is the first time that Tiangu has used his internal qi to kill someone, and he is still the first person among Tiangang-level killers, and the feeling of being among the upper echelons and the pleasure of achieving a great grandmaster have made Tiangu's heart difficult to calm down for a long time.

When he arrived at the Dark Key Pavilion stronghold, it was already close to noon, and Qin Sixteen returned to Xiao Duxue's room, playing with the little county lord to his heart's content. Cheng Ziyi was sent out to buy a maid, so Tiangu could only knock on the door to report it.

"Pavilion Master, I'm back!" Tiangu, who was standing outside the door, was a little apprehensive, although he had the internal qi of the Great Grandmaster, but he was still very unfamiliar with the use of internal qi, and the one in the room was Yu Huaiyin, the first master of Sheng Xin, who had killed Qin Sixteen, the super murderer of Qi Ling, the previous pavilion master of the Dark Key Pavilion.

"County Lord, don't make trouble, someone ......" Qin Sixteen's voice came out of the door intermittently, "Come in...... Come on in. ”

"Yes!" Tiangu pushed open the door and stood respectfully by the side of the door with his head slightly lowered, waiting for Qin Sixteen's question.

"Huh?" Reluctantly taking his eyes off the little county lord's pretty face, Qin Sixteen glanced at Tiangu and let out a soft snort.

Qin Sixteen's unexpected reaction instantly caused a chill to rise in Tiangu's heart, forcing the hairs around him to stand on end, and he wanted to escape from this land of tigers and wolves!
