Chapter 169: Into the Trap
The next day, Mu Bang collapsed and slept heavily for a night, dispelling the fatigue of days of hurrying, and getting up refreshed in the morning.
The guard of the post house outside the door brought breakfast in, and Mu Bangshang looked at the thin man, and he didn't recognize it, it should be the guard of the post house.
"Girl, please eat."
The man had already opened the food box, and the food in it was soft and easy to digest, and when he saw Mu Wan's frowns, he was suspicious.
"It's General Yin who heard that Mrs. has a stomachache and needs to eat something lighter."
Mu Bangshang didn't expect Yin Xiangfu to be so careful when the man who looked a little rough was so careful.
"Dare to ask where General Yin is?"
"The horses should be fed in the stable."
"You get out!"
Mu Bangshang was a little suspicious, and tried it with a silver needle, but it did not turn black, so he naturally had to eat more if he was in a hurry this way. ”
After breakfast, I didn't see Yin Xiangfu coming, Mu Bangshang personally went to the stables to look for it, and saw a burly middle-aged man in a black robe from a distance, with a beard on his face, eating grass for the horses.
"General Yin, when can you leave?"
Yin Xiangfu watched Mu Bangshang run over, and he sealed the Empress Dowager's decree to escort Mu Bangshang back to Dayin.
"Madam, the horses must be fed before they can travel thousands of miles a day."
"Mu Bangshang has no intention of urging, General Yin might as well hurry during the day and throw himself into the stack at night, otherwise his body will not be able to stand it."
Yoon Sang-fu didn't object, but that would prolong his stay in Silla.
As the saying goes, horses have no night grass and no fertilizer, last night Yin Xiangfu quietly came to the horse shed to feed the horses, and his intuition told him that there were people watching in the post house, and it seemed that it was not safe in the post station.
The horses are almost fed, "Madam, the villain has something to say, please move!" ”
Yin Xiangfu let Mu Bangshang to the room, very respectful, "I don't know what General Yin wants to say?" ”
"Madam, the villain seemed to see a black shadow flashing last night, and he always felt that someone was watching in the inn."
Could it be that the emperor's people found it, it couldn't be so fast. Could it be that something happened to the Queen Mother?
"General Yin, we have been taking the official road and it is easy to be tracked, is there a closer route to reach the border as soon as possible."
"Yes, yes, you can reach the border in about three or five days, and you have to cross a mountain forest, and the forest is always unpredictable."
Yu Zongyuan once fled with Mu Bangyi in the forest, but he threw her into a bandit's den, and she still has lingering palpitations.
Even if Yin Xiangfu is a battle-hardened general who is not familiar with the terrain and does not have a shop in front of the village or behind the store, Mu Bangshang would rather take the main road and it is easier to escape.
For the sake of safety, Mu Bangshang decided to abandon the official road and take a small road, and it took about ten days to get out of Silla, which was not easy to be caught.
"General Yin is still running to the path."
Yin Xiangfu did not object to Mu Bangshang's suggestion, "The villain went to survey the line and prepared more coils in case of emergency." ”
Yin Xiangfu is mature and steady, has a strong sense of respect and inferiority, will never encroach, and respects her opinions, Mu Bangshang respects him very much, and is a respectable elder.
Watching Yin Xiangfu leave, Mu Bangsheng's heart blocked a thousand catties of boulders, and he was depressed.
Didn't she escape Xuanyuan's control after all? Those who are stalking will be the people of the Big Yin?
They came out of Silla and traveled every day and every night, riding on the horses of the Western Horse, and they could travel thousands of miles a day, but they were afraid of being overtaken.
After they leave, the Queen Mother will definitely find a way to stop the emperor from pursuing them. At this time, Yin Xiangfu found that the person who was tracking should be the group that escorted her to Silla.
Thinking about the breakfast in the morning, it shouldn't have been Yin Xiangfu's order, "Brother Yu, could it be you?" You were sent by Xuanyuan. ”
If it weren't for Yu Zongyuan, he would be a reckless person. Li Gang is dead, Yu Zongyuan has no backer, and it is very likely that he took refuge in Xuanyuan in order to take revenge.
In other words, it is very likely that Xuanyuan will order Yu Zongyuan to arrest her to Silla, knowing that Li Ge will not let her go again, Xuanyuan will be able to rush to the crown and start a war against Silla for Hongyan.
Xuanyuan's reckless wishful thinking was too loud, even if he escaped from the palace, he was still under his control, which inevitably made people feel cold.
Xuanyuan's reckless love is nothing more than a despicable and shameless use.
If it weren't for Yin Xiangfu's habit of feeding horses at night, he might not have found out, "Xuanyuan is reckless, I'm afraid your plan will fall through this time." ”
The two suddenly changed their travel route, which caught Scarlet Yi and the others off guard, and immediately changed their strategy, Scarlet Yi suspected that Mu Wanshang had found that someone was following.
Mu Bangshang and Yin Xiangfu hurried during the day and rested at night.
Two days later, I arrived at an ancient village, and the whole village looked like a round city tower, which was the only village in the surrounding area.
The people in the village were very welcoming, and in order to thank them, Mu Bangshang gave them valuable jewelry and arranged for them to live on the second floor of the patriarch's house, a room where only distinguished guests could stay.
Seeing that the sky had already darkened, the villagers brought the village's unique delicacies to entertain the guests.
Mu Bangshang saw Yin Xiangfu glancing at her, so she became cautious, and the women retreated.
Seeing the women leaving, Mu Bangshang pointed to the dishes, meaning to ask if the food was poisonous.
Yin Xiangfu nodded, shook his head again, and heard that the person had already walked away, so he spoke.
"This is the Wu Village, and the Silla Wu people are divided into white witches and black witches, and there are witch doctors and witch blessings."
Mu Bangshang heard Li Ge say that Shi Caiyuan is the White Witch Clan, so she is a witch doctor.
"Could it be that this village is a black witch?"
"That's right, but don't worry, Madame, just be careful and you can avoid it. Madame gave so many jewelry, showing enough friendliness, she shouldn't be tricked. ”
Be careful to sail the boat for ten thousand years, she is still more relieved to eat her own snacks, and she still has questions in her heart.
"If they don't eat the food they bring them, will there be a misunderstanding."
"Yes!"
Yin Xiangfu picked up some of the many foods and handed them over, "These ladies should eat them." ”
Mu Bangshang took the food handed over by Yin Xiangfu, "General Yin is like my father." ”
"Oh! The villain is honored. I don't have a daughter, but I have a son, who is twelve years old. ”
Mu Wanshang lowered his eyes, if his younger brother was still alive, he would already be eight years old.
Yin Xiangfu saw Mu Bangshang and fell into deep thought, "Madam, the villain lives next door, no matter what sound you hear at night, don't go out." ”
"Thank you, General Yin, for reminding me."
In the dead of night, Mu Bangshang lay on the warm couch tossing and turning and couldn't sleep, I don't know if they got rid of Xuanyuan's reckless tracking.
Mu Bangshang heard someone's voice, and there seemed to be crying, Mu Bangshang still remembered Yin Xiangfu's advice, and the voice gradually disappeared.
Mu Bangshang couldn't sleep, and suddenly several figures passed by the door, "Who! ”
It wouldn't be Xuanyuan's reckless person, quietly opened the crack in the door, and could see the fire outside, she lived on the second floor, and a child in the yard was trapped in the fire, scorched in the smoke, and a whimpering cry for help came out of her mouth.
Mu Bangshang rushed directly down to the second floor, and when she got closer, she found that their mouths were gagged, and their hands and feet were tied to wooden stakes.
Mu Bangshang rushed in and untied the two children from the stake, did they want to sacrifice them with a living person.
"You are a foreigner, you dare to destroy the sacrifice of the witch clan, which angered the witch spirit, and you have to be buried together to eliminate the anger of the witch spirit."
It was the patriarch who was still very friendly to them during the day, an old man with white hair and a thin beard.
Mu Bangshang explained: "Patriarch, the little girl has no intention of destroying the sacrifice, she just saw the child being burned by the fire, and she only thought about saving the child, so she will be offended."
If someone hadn't led her out of the room, it wouldn't have been, and it was too late to say that.
Yin Xiangfu didn't sleep very deeply, and when he heard the noise outside, he jumped directly from the second floor.
Standing at Mu Bangshang's side, "Madam, didn't you tell you not to come out no matter what happens?" ”
Yin Xiangfu protected Mu Wanshang behind her, she is the imperial concubine of Dayin, which is related to the peace of the two countries.
The faith of these people is inviolable, and they are kind to discuss: "Chief, she did not mean to disturb, whether she can be accommodating, and whether the exchange of goods can offset the fault." ”
The old man exchanged words with many villagers, "It is a great sin to anger the witch spirit, in addition to handing over the goods, this woman also needs to sacrifice an arm, and only by seeing blood can the anger of the witch spirit be eliminated." ”
Yin Xiangfu felt that these people were a little too deceitful, but there were many of them, and their horses were still in their stables, far away from here, and it was difficult for him to escort Mu Wanshang out.
"Then use the lower arm."
"General Yin, the disaster was caused by me, and I will bear it myself."
"It has to be this woman's arm, who made her nosy and ruined the sacrifice."
Yin Xiangfu wasn't afraid of things, but he didn't want to have more branches, so he pulled out the sword at his waist, "Madam, follow behind." ”
Yin Sangfu's long sword was not unsheathed, but only hit the acupoints of those people, all of whom the Silla people did not want to hurt the innocent.
Yin Xiangfu kicked up the fire and smashed it into everyone. jumped up and took this Mu Bang clothes away.
The circular building is like a cage, and there is no way to find it for a while. Those people don't know martial arts, but there are too many people, Yin Xiangfu's hands are difficult to defeat with four hands, and he doesn't want to hurt people.
secretly rushed out of a group of black-clothed people, rushed to the crowd, and took advantage of the chaos to directly knock Mu Bangshang unconscious, and Mu Bangshang was knocked unconscious and swept away before Mu Bangshang could see the comer.
Yin Xiangfu didn't need to protect Mu Bangshang, it was easier to get out, chasing the group of people in black, but he lost it in the vast dark night.
Yin Xiangfu didn't protect Mu Wansheng well, and let people take her away, and he didn't even know the identity of the other party, whether it was someone sent by the emperor?
Mu Bangshang was put into the carriage, and the carriage drove all the way in the direction of Jinjing.
Scarlet Yi looked at Mu Wansheng, who was lying unconscious on the carriage, and had already checked for her, and she was not infected with Gu poison.
She deliberately sent someone to lure Mu Bangsang, and when Mu Bangshang saw the child being burned, she would definitely rush downstairs desperately, so she entered the trap.
As long as there is a conflict between the two sides, they can take advantage of the fire to rob, they have to find a way to send Mu Bangshang to Li Ge's hands unconsciously, and the Queen Mother's people will also think that it was Li Ge's people who rescued Mu Bangshang.
Even if Li Ge knew the plan, he would not be willing to hand over Mu Bangshang again.
The master is already on his way to Silla, and the two will meet soon.
