Chapter 378: Hunt and Kill
Li Jinyan quietly pulled out the dagger from under the pillow, but Xia Sihan grabbed his wrist tightly, and before Li Jinyan could react, he was taken into the space by Xia Sihan.
"Zheng!"
As soon as the two of them entered, they heard the sound of swords colliding from the place where they were originally lying!
"What about people?"
A hoarse voice came out, and the two of them heard it clearly, Xia Sihan looked at Li Jinyan and had palpitations.
"Who is it? Could it be that Mo Xuan's people are chasing here? ”
Xia Sihan was puzzled, after the Snow Mountain was in the territory of Murong Country, they should not be so bold. But this is not certain, this inn is far away from the capital, even if they are killed here, it will be half a month after the news reaches the capital.
"The martial arts skills of these people are different from those in the Chu State, they are exhausted after chasing and killing us after the snow mountain, where do they still have the strength to do something with us. Even Xiao Jiu and Yang Qingze were able to get out safely with the help of our stream. ”
Li Jinyan's analysis is right, if they are really from Chu, it can only be said that they are too energetic. If it is the people of Murong Kingdom, I am afraid that there is an accident in the palace, otherwise who can come and kill them at this time?
The two of them were hiding in the space, and there was already a mess outside. Xiao Jiu and Yang Qingze killed the enemy while protecting Qinghe, and the entire inn was plunged into a sea of fire, and screams could be heard everywhere.
"Whoa!"
"The owner, Childe!"
It was Xiao Jiu's voice, Xia Sihan heard it and quickly pulled Li Jinyan out, and only after they came out did they know that the inn was on fire.
"Xiao Jiu, Qinghe, I'm here!"
Xia Sihan was at the side of the bed, Xiao Jiu saw them at the door, and quickly pulled Qinghe to break in, and Yang Qingze was at the end.
The five of them finally got together and hid in the space with Xia Sihan. Outside the inn, a raging fire flooded the entire inn, and everyone was killed in the fire.
"Boss, we forced them into the room, and now they can't fly with their wings!"
The black-clad masked men formed a circle and slashed all those who escaped from the flames. The black-clothed man at the head said coldly: "If you want to see people in life, you must see corpses in death, and you will go in when the fire is extinguished!" ”
The leader left four men to guard, and the rest quickly disappeared into the night.
Xia Sihan and the others vaguely heard the voices of people in the space, as well as the crackling sound of fire, and several people's hearts were very heavy.
"Owner, these people look like secret guards, but I don't know whose orders they were. Now we can only wait until the fire is extinguished before we can get out, but we don't know how many enemies are waiting for us? ”
Xiao Jiu's face was solemn, and Yang Qingze also took out a black token from his arms.
"You see, this is what I found on the killer. I haven't seen this token, at least not the shadow guards around the emperor. ”
Xia Sihan took it from his hand and looked at it carefully, and there was a Hui character written on the token.
"Is this a human name? In Murong Kingdom, I can't think of anyone else who has an enmity with me except Princess Ning. Moreover, those who have the ability to invite these people must also be in high positions. ”
"That's not necessarily, if there is money, some organizations can also come out to help. All in all, let's get through the hurdle first. ”
Li Jinyan looked around and simply sat down.
"They wait, we wait, it's only a matter of time before we get through it, it's up to who can get through it. Come, we have food and drink here, don't worry, think about how to get back to the capital first! ”
Li Jinyan is right, since he has been targeted, he will definitely not be peaceful on the road in the future. So during this period, how to return to the capital is the key.
Xia Sihan and the others sat on the side to discuss countermeasures, Qinghe couldn't interject, she was not from Murong Country, and she was not familiar with this place, but she decided to follow them when she met Xia Sihan.
Qinghe stepped aside and began to catch fish, preparing to make fish soup for them to drink. Xia Sihan felt inexplicably warm when she saw it on the side, it seemed that it was right for her to come back with Qinghe.
Several people talked for a long time in the space, and it wasn't until the smell of fish soup came that they realized that they had been talking for a long time.
"Qinghe's craftsmanship is good, it smells so good!"
Yang Qingze couldn't help but praise, Qinghe smiled, "It's that the fish here are good, in our Chu country, the fish are precious, the ice and snow all year round, fishing can be effortless!" ”
"Really? It's a pity, at that time in Chu State, we shouldn't have opened a teahouse, we should have gone to catch fish, I am very good at catching fish! ”
Yang Qingze strode over, and Qinghe was amused by his words. Xiao Jiu was gloomy on the side, his face was sullen, when did he still laugh, don't you know that this is an extraordinary time?
She couldn't get used to Yang Qingze's hippie smiling gag the most, so she simply didn't look away. Xia Sihan saw all this in his eyes and smiled without saying a word.
A few people drank fish soup by the stream, and then lay down to rest and replenish their strength. The fire outside burned until almost dawn, and the men in black rummaged through the original site of the inn, and basically burned to ashes.
"Let's go, such a big fire has long been extinguished, how can there be anything left!"
The four men in black looked at each other before leaving. The inn behind him was in ruins, and all the innocent merchants who stayed in the hotel had turned to ashes.
Xia Sihan and the others didn't appear until the man in black had been gone for half an hour, just to prevent them from going and returning. Now that he has seen so many ruins out of the space, Xia Sihan was shocked in his heart.
"Did they kill all the people in the inn?"
Even the stables and horses at the back of the inn were slaughtered together, and these killers were really ruthless.
Xia Sihan had experienced many assassinations in his previous life, but he had never had this tragedy. Because they involved innocent people, Xia Sihan really didn't want to go.
"Let's hurry on the road, or this will happen again, and if there is another time, we may not
So lucky. ”
Li Jinyan urged everyone, and they reacted immediately. Xiao Jiu and Yang Qingze helped them change their appearance respectively, and the five of them just pretended to be a family. Li Jinyan They are an old couple, Xiao Jiu and Yang Qingze are sons and daughters-in-law, as for Qinghe, she is thin and small, just dressed as her granddaughter, and the family is neat and tidy.
Looking at Xiao Jiu's reluctant appearance beside him, Yang Qingze quipped: "Why are you not happy when I see you wearing such beautiful clothes for the first time?" ”
Xiao Jiu glanced at him, didn't bother to pay attention to him, and walked straight to Xia Sihan's side.
Xia Sihan smiled when he saw this, and greeted Yang Qingze: "Let's hire a car and pack a few bags to come out later, otherwise it will be too easy to go back all the way!" ”
"There's a town in front of me, and I'll buy it when it's time."
Yang Qingze agreed simply, Xia Sihan smiled and turned his head to look at Xiao Jiu, and asked her: "I see that you have not been happy since the morning, but what is in your heart?" Let's hear it. ”
