Chapter 170: Chaotic Rivers and Lakes
After Jiang Liuli ate a piece of osmanthus cake, she ate another piece of peach blossom cake, I don't know if it was an illusion, but I thought that the peach blossom cake was more delicious than the osmanthus cake, I don't know if Lan Tingxuan was good at making peach blossom cake, or the peach blossom cake was better than the osmanthus cake.
"It's delicious." She nodded with satisfaction, although the dim sum he made was not the most delicious, but it was the most pleasing to her.
"As long as you like, I'll make it for you often." Lan Tingxuan saw that she really liked it, and smiled happily.
"Okay." She nodded with a smile, picked up a piece of peach blossom cake and put it to his mouth, he opened his mouth to eat it, and looked at her with doting in his eyes.
After staying in the Nameless Mountain Villa for three days, it was finally time to leave, although Lin Xiyan was reluctant, he had no choice but to send them away in tears.
On the way back, it is still not very peaceful, the rivers and lakes are becoming more and more chaotic, and if this continues, the court is estimated to intervene, if the affairs of the rivers and lakes are intervened, it will be an act of slapping the face of the Wulin League.
They have also encountered fights and killings along the way, but Mingyue and Mingxia have excellent ears, and after hearing the sound of fighting, they will take a detour, so they have not encountered anything dangerous along the way.
They stopped and walked and spent more than a month on the road, from a hot summer to a cool autumn, and Jiang Liuli's belly was getting bigger and bigger, making it inconvenient to go shopping, so every time they arrived in town, they hurried and didn't wander.
When he was about to arrive at the smoke-free city, the road met the woods, and the sound of fighting was heard from afar, and when Ming Xia was irritable and wanted to take a detour, he heard a woman's cry not far away.
They can ignore human life, but they can't tolerate the woman being bullied, and after stopping the car, they carefully confirm that it is indeed the woman's cry for help who was bullied.
"Mingxia, go take a look." Jiang Liuli, who was originally sleeping in the carriage, heard the sound and said in a cold tone, for her, the beasts who bullied women deserve to die.
"Yes." Mingxia flew away directly after hearing this, and Mingyue stayed behind to protect them.
Ming Xia rushed to the place where the woman was shouting and found that two men in Tsing Yi were grabbing the woman's hands and feet, and the other man was tearing the woman's clothes.
On the other side, a man in black was pressed to the ground by two men in Tsing Yi, he was so angry that he struggled to break free from the grip of the two, but he couldn't break free.
"Wan'er, Wan'er." His eyes were red, and he looked at the woman who was pressed to the ground with a pained expression.
"Husband, save me, save me." The woman screamed in despair, her hands and feet clutched tightly, and she could only watch as the smiling man in front of her tore her clothes.
Ming Xia looked at the scene in front of him, and suddenly became angry, took out the flying knife on his waist, and threw it directly, accurately cutting the throat of the man who was tearing the clothes, and the flying knife pierced the tree not far away.
"Ahh The man's blood sprayed on the woman's face, and she screamed in fright, and then saw the man fall straight on top of her, and she was so frightened that she almost fainted.
"Who." Everyone was shocked when they saw this sudden scene, and turned their heads to look at Ming Xia.
"Who are you? Dare to meddle in our business, are you impatient? The man who had been standing on the sidelines and didn't make a move, squinted at Ming Xia who suddenly appeared.
"How dare you bully a woman like this, are you impatient?" Ming Xia looked at a few people coldly, looking at their clothes, they should be disciples of a certain sect, but they didn't expect to do such a thing.
"He betrayed the master, we are arrested by the teacher's order, you are an outsider, it is better not to meddle in your affairs." The man looked Ming Xia up and down, he knew that her skills were good when he saw her move just now, he didn't want to make any extraneous branches, and wanted to persuade her to leave their business alone.
"If you catch a traitor, you can insult your son?" Ming Xia glared at the man viciously, and while he was still speaking, the two men who were holding the woman had not let go.
"She is a Qinglou woman, I don't know how many people have played with her, what if we play?" The man who grabbed the woman's arm said disdainfully.
"What about even the women in the Qinglou? Do you deserve to be bullied? Ming Xia was completely angered by his words, and threw two more throwing knives after speaking.
Seeing this, the man let go of his hand, dodged the flying knife, and drew his sword to attack her, trying to take it down before she could strike again.
The man in black was also loosened, and he hurriedly crawled to the woman's side, pushed away the man who was already dead in her, and hugged her into his arms.
"Husband, husband." The woman clung to the man's shirt and wept bitterly.
"I'm sorry, it's because I'm useless that I let you suffer with me." The man in black said remorsefully, if he hadn't offended his fellow senior brother, how could he have been forced to escape from the sect by him.
The woman did not respond to him, but cried incessantly in his arms, and she had not yet recovered from the sin she had suffered.
In just a few moments, Ming Xia had already dealt with the two men, and before this group of people besieged her, she had drawn the soft sword at her waist and attacked these people with a fatal attack.
Since following Lan Tingxuan, she and Mingyue have changed soft swords to wear on their waists, and prepared some flying knives, so that they will not be discovered in front of Lan Tingxuan.
Although the remaining few people besieged Mingxia with all their might, they were not good at learning and soon became scarred, and when they saw this, they planned to escape.
Ming Xia naturally saw their thoughts, and she had never shown mercy in the face of these beasts, so when they wanted to escape, she used all her strength to kill everyone.
After all five people died, Ming Xia took out the silk handkerchief, wiped the blood stains on the sword, and flicked it gently, the soft sword returned to the waist again, and under the cover of the belt, the hidden mystery in the waist could not be seen at all.
"Hurry up, be careful next time." Ming Xia said to the two, and then prepared to turn around and leave.
"Thank you, girl." The man hugged the disheveled woman, his face was full of gratitude, if his wife was humiliated, according to her character, she would definitely choose to die, even if she was indeed a Qinglou woman, but she was also arrogant.
Ming Xia looked around and saw that their luggage seemed to have been lost, and the woman's clothes were completely torn and could no longer be worn, so after thinking about it, he returned to the carriage and gave her a set of his own clothes.
"Mingxia, what's wrong?" Lan Tingxuan saw that the carriage had stopped in place for a long time, and he knew that something must have happened ahead.
"It's all right." Ming Xia said with a smile, although there was no blood on her clothes, his nose was much sharper than ordinary people, so he still smelled the faint smell of blood on her body.
Although he already knew that there might be a death in front of him, he didn't want to say anything about it, and he didn't ask too much, he didn't know much about the affairs of the rivers and lakes, and he didn't want to care so much, and now he only cared about Jiang Liuli's safety.
After giving the two men his clothes and some silver, he soon returned and left the place in a carriage.
This episode made Lan Tingxuan have a little more thought in his heart, guessing that Jiang Liuli was also a person in the rivers and lakes, and in the face of the affairs of the rivers and lakes, the three of them were too calm, and they had a feeling of not being surprised, they couldn't be sure before, but now they have guessed probably.
However, this has not changed much for him, although he is not a person from the rivers and lakes, but among the friends he knows, many of them are also people from the rivers and lakes, Wu Liyuan is, and so is Gongsun Hou, so there is no great rejection of Jiang Liuli's identity.
After ten days of traveling, she finally returned to the smoke-free city, and when she stepped into the city gate, Jiang Liuli actually had a feeling of returning to her heart, this was the first time she wanted to return to a place like this, which was her home, her home with Lan Tingxuan.
Arriving at the door of the house, Jiang Liuli couldn't wait to get out of the car, looking at the familiar place in front of her, and felt a very calm feeling in her heart.
After Mingyue opened the door, Lan Tingxuan helped her walk in, and as soon as she entered the door, she found that the courtyard had changed, and five trees were planted in a corner of the courtyard.
"This is ......" She looked at the five trees planted in surprise, and then looked at the other side, where a stand had been set up above the stone table, and now only the vines were crawling all over the support.
"In the winter, I heard that you wanted to plant plum trees and peach trees, and in the spring, I asked my grandson to find peach trees and plum trees for me to plant." Lan Tingxuan said with a smile.
"I said it once, and you remembered it." Jiang Liuli looked at him gently, at that time she just said it casually, and then forgot about it, who would have thought that he would remember.
"I will take everything you say to heart." Standing at the door, he said love words, which embarrassed Ming Xia, who was standing behind them.
Originally, I wanted to leave quietly first, but who had thought that I was sleeping in my arms and woke up, babbling and calling.
Jiang Liuli looked back at Ming Xia with an embarrassed face, and when she saw Jiang Liuli without worry, she babbled and stretched out her hand to hug her, among the four, she hugged him the least often, but she loved to stick to her the most, which was really strange.
"Let the godfather hug you, the godmother can't hold you." Although I have always drunk goat's milk, I am very strong, and my face is fat and cute.
Originally, he planned to find a nurse for him in the Nameless Villa, but Wu Liyuan said that if he ate the milk of this nurse and drank other people's milk, he might not be used to it, and after thinking about it, he didn't look for the nurse, they couldn't find a good nurse there, and then bring it back to the smoke-free city.
Wuwu didn't understand Jiang Liuli's words, he still waved his little arms and asked for a hug, Lan Tingxuan saw it, he could only hold him in his arms, although it was not the expected embrace, but Wuwu still quieted down, among the four people, the first one he stuck to was Jiang Liuli, the second was Lan Tingxuan, and the third was naturally Mingxia, and she was taking care of Wuwu during this time.
Ming Xia stepped forward to help Jiang Liuli, now her belly is getting bigger and bigger, and she needs someone to accompany her wherever she goes, although she herself doesn't think so, but seeing that they are so nervous, she can only serve herself like a mother.
After returning home and settling everything down, Mingyue went to the hospital to pick up Lan's mother, who knew that after they came back, they didn't even pack their luggage, so they threw away the child's clothes they were sewing in their hands, and ran home without even saying hello.
Mingyue saw that Lan's mother was excited like this, smiled helplessly, and stayed to help clean up things, during this time, Lan's mother has been making children's clothes at home, and has done a lot in nearly three months, and even made the clothes that children wear when they are three years old.
