Chapter 70: A Place to Hide

Mu Jingzhu and Xie Xiaoer took the lead in protecting the two women behind them, looking vigilant and facing the door with full body guard.

Qu Youying grabbed the clothes around Mu Jingzhu's waist, poked her head out from the side, looked at the door, and whispered, "It's not Thirteen Chuan." ”

Before she could finish speaking, the door was opened.

Su Tong stood in front of the door in a black robe, standing with his hands in his hands, quite chic.

The powerful coercion that followed also disappeared because of his appearance.

"Jing Candle, it's you!" After Xie Xiaoer saw his face clearly, he breathed a sigh of relief, lowered his guard posture, patted his chest and said, "We thought it was a bad guy!" ”

Su Yun's gaze swept slightly over the few people in the door, and finally landed on the body of "Xiaoshu".

He smiled slightly, stepped into the door, closed the door, and said, "Give you some vigilance, now Thirteen Chuan is looking for people everywhere!" ”

"Looking for whom?"

Xie Xiaoer asked curiously.

Su Tong didn't answer, but his eyes fell on Qu Youying's body.

Qu Youying also looked at him, curious in his heart, how did he know about this.

Could it be that he was nearby at the time?

And he was very clear about their actions tonight, especially the time and place of the nocturnal movement of corpses.

Who the hell is he?

"The Captain wants to arrest me to deal with you."

Qu Youying stood up to explain, her tone was relaxed, and she seemed to be very pessimistic about her life and death, but only Mu Jingzhu, who was standing beside her, knew how tight her hand was holding his clothes.

"Huh?" Xie Xiaoer was shocked, "Then you should hide immediately." The martial arts of the Thirteen Rivers are so high, once you are caught by him, you will be more than lucky! ”

"That's why I'm here, I think-"

"Nope. This place is not safe. I'll take you to a safe place, at least for tonight. ”

Su Tong interrupted Qu Youying's words, the meaning was straightforward, "Although this is a dangerous place, Thirteen Chuan is so smart, he wouldn't have thought that you would come here to hide." So you follow me, and I'll arrange for your safety. ”

As soon as Xie Xiaoer heard his words, he immediately nodded in accommodation.

"Yes, Xiaoying, you can go with Jing Candle! It's not safe here. We'll take care of the matter here. ”

"But—"

"Miss, my subordinates also think it's right for you to follow Master Mu. As for the Qufu side, the subordinates will arrange it properly, please rest assured. ”

Mu Jingzhu also seemed to suddenly change his attention and pushed Qu Youying out.

Qu Youying was momentarily unclear about his change, but she still chose to believe her, and after explaining a few words, she followed Su Tong away.

Su Tong put a wide black cloak on her outside, covering her face, and left the confines of Fengling Street in a low-key manner.

Along the way, he didn't say a word, which is a rare situation.

"You didn't really show up just to take me, did you?"

Qu Youying grabbed the sides of the cloak tightly with both hands, followed his steps, and said in a voice that was neither high nor low.

"Why not?"

Su Tong walked on the streets with her, without the slightest sense of crisis of being chased and killed, but there was a kind of leisure to eat after dinner.

"Because you have too many secrets in you."

"For example?"

"How did you know when the bones appeared tonight? You came to me for a portrait at that time, but it wasn't all for the portrait, right? Also, Xie Xiaoer can't complete such a big operation alone, and he has to deceive Thirteen Chuan, so you must be helping him behind his back. But you don't want to show up. ”

"And guess what my reluctance is to show up?"

Su Tong stopped, turned around, and looked at her funny.

At this moment, the place where they stopped was in the shadow of the side door of a gambling house, and there was a loud noise and shouting from inside.

Qu Youying frowned and looked at him, she just felt that Su Tong was very strange, and in this matter, with Xie Xiaoer's temperament, it was impossible for her to agree so readily and work hard because of her words.

Xie Xiaoer listened to Mu Jingzhu's words the most, so as long as it was Mu Jingzhu's order, he would do it.

And the Mu Jing Candle he believes in now is pretending to be Su Tong.

But once the fake and the real are together, then many details will definitely be discovered by those who are familiar with each other.

So he deliberately concealed his direct involvement in this matter, in fact, to avoid colliding with the real Mu Jing Candle?

"Can't guess?"

Qu Youying was silent, her eyes stared at him, and she already had the answer in her heart.

Su Tong laughed at her appearance, raised his hand and knocked her on the head, "Since you can't guess, just hide with me!" ”

As he spoke, he led her through a small door at the edge of the gambling house.

There was only one room, very basic, with only a table, with a few benches, such as a bronze mirror on the table, a candle, a jewelry box, and a wrapping cloth.

"What are you bringing me here for?"

"If you want to avoid the tracking of the Thirteen Rivers, you can only change your appearance."

He opened the box, and it was full of all kinds of things needed for disguise, which could be described as very comprehensive.

"That's what you came up with? After the disguise, I think he can't find me? You also know martial arts, you should know that a master sometimes distinguishes a person by more than just looks. ”

"This is the way of nature. So transfiguration is just the first step. Hurry up, if he finds you, don't blame me for leaving you! ”

"Despicable."

Qu Youying didn't want to entangle with him more, so when she sat down, she picked up the pen and changed her appearance.

She had a miraculous skill in her pen, and it didn't take long for her to finish the painting.

Su Tong brought his face over at the right time, and said with a smile, "Wash it off for me, and then draw a face too." ”

"Why?"

Seeing her doubts, Su Tong's face was even happier, her eyebrows were raised lightly, and her smile was heavier, "Want me to tell you?" ”

Qu Youying saw him like that, and knew that he wanted to tease her again, so she pouted and refused to answer.

After everything was done, Su Tong opened the wrapping cloth, and inside were two men's and women's clothes.

"Go inside and change it."

Qu Youying was full of doubts, but she still did it.

After she came out, Su Tong took the clothes of the two and burned them in the yard.

The fire was not large and was quickly resolved.

When he had done all this, he took her by the hand, went out of the courtyard, and walked with determination to the gate of the nearest gambling house.

"You're gambling?"

Qu Youying was taken aback.

"It's not me, it's us."

Su Tong seemed to be familiar with the environment here, swaggered in, took out the silver from his waist and began to bet.

"The gambling house and the flower building are the only places that open at night, and there are many large and small gambling houses and flower buildings in Xiangling Town, and it is not easy to find them one by one. What's more, before he looks for these places, he has to eliminate all the places you have been to one by one. So even if he did find it, it would already be dawn. As soon as the day dawns, he will give up his actions. ”

"Just because there will be rumors that the captain will dig bones and stew soup after dawn? Do you really think that this alone can make the Captain fearful? ”

Qu Youying didn't know how to gamble, but looking at Su Tong's methods, he also took out some silver from his arms, threw it to the "big" side, and bet against him.

"Just wait and see the show! At least some of them won't let you down. ”

Su Tong dropped such a sentence, and the dealer opened.

He directly lost five taels of silver, but Qu Youying won.

He didn't care, he continued to bet, no matter whether he won or lost, the money was given to Qu Youying.

finally survived until dawn, Qu Youying was almost sleepy, but even so, she clung to the silver she won and didn't let go.

Su Tong pulled her out of the gate, looking at her cautious appearance, and smiled helplessly.

"You are also the daughter of a big family, just a few pieces of silver, is it worth this look?"

"That's because you are pampered, and you don't know that the children of big families also have their helplessness."

"Oh?" Su Tong raised his eyebrows and asked curiously, "What helplessness do you have?" Do you want to marry someone with money? Didn't your father marry Xie Fu? Xie Fu is the richest man, and if he marries, he is afraid that he will have no money? ”

"So many questions, Ba Po!"

Qu Youying didn't want to talk too much about herself with him! He hid the silver and walked to a noodle stall in front of him.

"Boss, let's have a bowl of noodles."

"Boss, two bowls."

Su Tong sat down beside her, it was already dawn at the moment, but it was still early, and there were just so many small stalls to buy food, and they came out the earliest.

There were only two of them in the boss's booth, and there were scattered passers-by all the way forward.

In the early morning in Xiangling Town, it looks a little cold, but the scenery is beautiful.

"Two, the noodles are ready, please use it slowly."

The boss brought the noodles after a while, and Qu Youying said thank you and ate them.

She really starved to death, anyway, she was easy to look at, and she was not afraid of being recognized by others and devouring it.

Su Tong is much more elegant than him, no matter what kind of appearance he looks like, he is elegant and noble when he eats.

"Where are we going to go later? I'm really sleepy and want to go home and sleep. ”

Qu Youying said vaguely that she was really hungry and sleepy, but she had to be vigilant at all times.

Su Tong took a bite of noodles, looked at the cold street again, and whispered, "Wait." You eat slowly. ”

"Oh."

She was very helpless, if it was replaced by Mu Jingzhu here, she would definitely pill on his shoulder and sleep for a while.

But this is Su Tong, and she hasn't let go of all her vigilance against him, so she can only hold on.

After she finished eating a bowl of noodles, Su Tong hadn't proposed to leave.

She looked left and right, there were few people on the street, and no one mentioned the matter of the captain, and she was a little uncertain in her heart, could it be that things had changed?

Just when she wanted to ask Su Tong, she heard someone shouting loudly while running.

"Let's go to the abandoned house on Fengling Street, let's go to the abandoned house on Fengling Street, there are strange stories there, there are strange stories......"

He roared all the way and ran forward.

Su Tong smiled slightly, took out a few pieces of broken silver from his waist, put them on the table, and then stood up.

"Let's go. Let's check it out too. ”

"Huh?" Qu Youying also stood up and asked worriedly, "There shouldn't be anything wrong with the abandoned mansion, right?" What did Xie Xiaoer do last night? ”

Compared with her nervousness, Su Tong was calm.

"Just check it out?"

Qu Youying felt that she had been in doubt since yesterday, and it was the first time that she didn't know what the people around her were doing.

But she followed.
