Chapter 64: It will be too late to do nothing

As I walked slowly into the store, put down my bags and took off my snow-soaked cloak, the guy looked at me more and more unusually.

At first, I thought there was something special about me, so I looked around me, but I didn't see anything wrong, it was nothing more than the following I described the outfit - wearing a wooden hairpin on my head, waist-length hair hanging down behind me. He was dressed in a pale blue cotton robe with a white cotton cloak, and the lower part of the robe was either blue or white, which I liked.

After all, they are the sons and daughters of the rivers and lakes, so naturally they don't pay much attention to it. But I don't know why the guy's expression is so exaggerated, it's a bit inexplicable to think about it.

I saw this, and when I slammed my sword down on the table in front of me, there was a loud thud.

When the man saw that I was a martial artist and that his eyes were sharp, he no longer dared to think of him, and began his job honestly.

But what the woman didn't expect was that she who was so plain in her eyes was a completely different scene in the eyes of the store guys.

The moment the shopkeeper opened the door for the woman, he felt a sense of coolness coming to him.

At first, the shopkeeper thought it was because it was too cold outside. But when the woman entered the inn, laid down her baggage, and removed her cloak, he suddenly realized that it all originated with the woman.

I saw that her posture was graceful, her steps were light, her voice was low and soft, and her expression was cold and charming. Although it has never deliberately applied heavy makeup, it is difficult to hide its unique and rare flamboyant atmosphere.

Especially the blue and white delicate coat shows the unique charm of this person to the extreme. Even the tassels in the wardrobe, the headdress in the hair, and the cuffs are all in a comfortable blue and white color. At first glance, it is very fresh.

The coolness shown by the woman's gestures is as pure and natural as the wind, but it is more cold and murderous than the wind.

The flawless white cloak is not only to protect her from the wind and cold, but also to bring out her intoxicating face, which is as pure and pure as snow but more seductive than snow.

This situation and this scene can't help but remind the shopkeeper of a beautiful woman who is very similar to him. That is the "goddess of wind and snow" who exists like a god in the legend of Taihang, but no one has ever seen it.

No wonder the shop guy behaved like this, it turned out that the truth of the matter was like this.

Today, when the woman sees this, she can't help but think of what happened to her before.

When the woman came back to her senses, the shopkeeper had already disappeared. I thought I was afraid that she would not be able to answer if she asked again, so he quickly left.

Seeing this, the woman was about to turn around and leave, but she dismissed the idea of returning to the house, because the golden hairpin in the shopkeeper's hand suddenly flashed in her mind.

As far as she could see, it was no ordinary thing. And the behavior of the two of them here late at night is so weird, there must be a lot of hidden secrets in this.

Don't look at this woman's young age, but she has been walking the rivers and lakes for many years. There is a way that the rivers and lakes are sinister and unpredictable, and if you don't have more eyes, I'm afraid you won't be far from death.

It is for this reason that she pays special attention to unusual things, as it is likely to bring you unexpected gains without even noticing.

Sure enough, when the woman secretly came outside the house of the two, she heard some clues from their conversation.

And when she wanted to inquire further, there was a more urgent knock on the door of the inn.

When the woman saw this, she hurriedly hid.

When the people in the house heard this, they were even more shocked and at a loss, because they knew that these people were coming for them.

Just as the two were about to escape, they found that it was too late.

At the same time, the shopkeeper who had just fallen asleep was so angry that he sat up directly from the couch after hearing the knock on the door outside the house, and he was still scolding in his mouth.

Thinking that the bed was just covered with heat, he was about to sleep, and he didn't want these people to disturb him again, which was really irritable and irritable.

At a young hour, the shopkeeper stood up and went to open the door for him with great impatience.

Seeing that it was late at night, the shopkeeper thought about opening a crack in the door to check the situation outside before making a district. Unexpectedly, the person outside the door saw the doorkeeper open, and he broke in directly without saying a word.

Before the shopkeeper could come to his senses, one of them hurriedly asked if a man and a woman had ever appeared here.

From his description, it is not difficult to hear that these people are clearly looking for the two people that the store guy just received.

And what made him even more disturbing was that these people were all dressed in night clothes, and they were all fierce and vicious, and they were not good people at first glance.

At this moment, the shopkeeper suddenly realized that he was in trouble. However, it was already too late.

Seeing this, the shopkeeper was stunned for a while, and then said that he had never seen it.

"What? Haven't seen it? Haven't you really seen it? In the face of the man's aggressive questioning, the shopkeeper became more and more frightened, so that he involuntarily trembled.

At this moment, Jin Hai, who had been carried in the arms of the shop guys, fell out unexpectedly.

When the visitor saw this, he immediately recognized the golden hairpin, and this time the shop guy was afraid that he would not be able to escape.

The shopkeeper saw that Jin Hai was found and was about to explain it, but he was killed by the man.

Before he died, the shopkeeper said the last sentence with all his strength: "What did you say...... That's right! ”

The words were divided into two ends, and the man and woman who came here before saw that the situation was not good, so they wanted to make a last stand.

Unfortunately, the man had already been severely injured in several fierce battles before, and was unable to withstand the re-attack of these men. However, even so, he chose to fight until the last moment. And with the death of the man who was traveling with her, the woman was about to be captured by them.

At this critical moment, a dark shadow suddenly flashed in front of everyone and took the opportunity to rescue the woman.

It's so fast that it's too late to react. By the time they came to their senses, the two had already disappeared.

So who are these men and women? What is the origin of the mysterious woman in the inn?

The reason for this incident can only start from a few months ago, when Li Shaogu, the governor of the Songmo Prefecture, sent the Khitan general Ke Yu to Beijing to pay tribute.

And the reason why Li Shaogu chose to enter Beijing at this time to pay tribute is for a reason, first, to express gratitude to Tang Xuanzong for his various rewards over the years, and secondly, Tang Xuanzong had previously chosen a woman surnamed Chen (Princess Donghua) to marry Li Shaogu as a princess.

This time it is the Spring Festival again, and he should express it in a reasonable way. In view of this, Li Shaogu was able to break into Beijing at this time.

However, what he didn't expect was that after he suddenly arrived in Beijing, he was given a cold reception by the Zhongshu waiter. What's more, many ministers also spoke ill of him. But he suddenly felt unhappy, and then left in a bad mood.

After returning to Khitan, Ke suddenly became more and more angry the more he thought about it, so he decided to rebel. He first killed Li Shaogu, and then set up another Yao Yuan Qu as king.

At this point, it is difficult to ride a tiger. The bold and reckless can suddenly simply do nothing, even if he leads the troops and coercs the Xi people to surrender to the Turks, so that Youzhou is in danger.

Li Shaogu's wife, Princess Donghua, saw that the situation was not good, so she waited for an opportunity to flee from the Khitan, during which she was fortunate to be able to get to this place thanks to the desperate protection of Li Shaogu's deputy general.

In other words, the man and woman who were attacked in the Taihang Mountain Inn were Li Shaogu's lieutenant general and his wife, Princess Donghua.

As for the mysterious woman who saved Princess Donghua in time when the situation was critical, it was Bai Muyun, the daughter of Yin Bai Mingyi of the former Jingzhao Mansion.

Bai Muyun had been traveling around the Central Plains before, and then visited famous teachers and masters all over the world in order to obtain superior martial arts.

This time, Bai Muyun suddenly returned to Chang'an because of the sudden dismissal of his father Bai Mingyi. After all, my father had also done his best for the country and the court, and he didn't want to suffer such humiliation inexplicably this time, and his daughter had to seek justice for him.

After this incident, Bai Muyun felt more and more that this matter was very important, so she did not rush to set off after saving Princess Donghua, but found a relatively safe place to learn more about the ins and outs of the matter.

But as she had predicted, Princess Donghua at this time became more cautious because she had just lost her husband and had experienced several deaths.

She was neither willing to reveal anything about it to anyone easily, nor would she say a word more. I just hope that Bai Muyun can escort her into Beijing as soon as possible, so as not to miss a big event.

Seeing this situation, Bai Muyun didn't continue to ask her, and besides, he was going to the capital, so he simply did it to the end.

While escorting Princess Donghua into Beijing, Bai Muyun did everything possible to get the specific story of this incident from her.

But what is strange is that since Bai Muyun rescued Princess Donghua in the inn of Taihang Mountain, he has never encountered those mysterious pursuers along the way.

Did they just give up? Or is there a more insidious lethal move? Bai Muyun didn't know.

In order to prevent accidents, Bai Muyun deliberately found an inconspicuous small shop in Chang'an City to temporarily settle Princess Donghua. I was going to wait for things to calm down a little before making another arrangement, but something unexpected happened.

Just when Bai Muyun felt that the time was ripe and wanted to take Princess Donghua to set off immediately, an accident happened.

It is not difficult to see from the behavior and habits shown by Princess Donghua in the past few days that she is a person who sleeps late but gets up early. But on the night of the accident, she went to bed early.

At first, Bai Muyun didn't care, but when she woke up the next morning, she was surprised to find that Princess Donghua, who had always gotten up earlier than her, didn't move in the house at all.

Thinking of some of Princess Donghua's unusual actions last night, Bai Muyun suddenly felt that something was wrong, so he rushed into Princess Donghua's room without thinking.

As expected, Princess Donghua really disappeared.

Not only that, the thoughtful Bai Muyun also found bloodstains on the ground of Princess Donghua's room. And just after Bai Muyun conducted a further investigation of the scene, more puzzling things appeared one after another.

In addition to a puddle of blood on the floor on the window side of the room, a slight splatter of blood was found on the wall on the other side of the window. In addition, there was a series of blood splatters that went straight to the outside of the door, and finally some blood stains were found on the ground beyond the door.

It seems that Princess Donghua wants to escape after being attacked by others, and she doesn't want to be kidnapped by others as soon as she reaches the door.

However, this is only the result of Bai Muyun's subjective assumptions after conducting a preliminary investigation of the scene, and the real situation in this has yet to be further verified.

Seeing this situation, a series of questions and incomprehensions continued to flash in Bai Muyun's mind.

At this moment, a dark shadow suddenly flashed outside the house.

Seeing this, Bai Muyun immediately chased him out with an arrow. Seeing that the man was discovered by Bai Muyun, he resolutely walked over the wall.

Bai Muyun wanted to catch up to find out, but he was afraid that the scene would be damaged twice, so he didn't continue to catch up.

Unexpectedly, Bai Muyun's trip to the capital actually gave rise to many strange and unpredictable things, and it seems that she has been stirred into a puddle of troubled water without investigation.
