Chapter 39: Unknown Rivers and Lakes

Although it was late, the streets of the Imperial City were not deserted, and an ordinary carriage slowly passed through the crowd and headed towards the east gate of Tianyin City. The guards at the city gate routinely inspected, the car was driven by the handlebar type in the city, everyone was familiar with it, and the car was sitting in a middle-aged couple, who went out of the city so late because someone in their hometown was sick and was in a hurry to go home to visit relatives. When the guard saw that there was nothing unusual, he let him go.

The carriage went out of the city gates, drove through the night, and came to a small town in about two hours. The time has passed, and people are sleepy and tired, especially the woman in the car, who is sick and crumbling.

The people in the town were asleep, and the man in the car asked the handlebar to park the car in a quiet place and wait until dawn before he could hurry. The handlebar style is naturally unwanted, and I readily agreed.

As soon as the day dawned, the people who got up early to work couldn't help but make some noise, and the noisy sound woke up the sleeping handlebar type, and the handlebar type scolded in a low voice, stretched their waists, yawned loudly, sat up straight, woke up, and beckoned a middle-aged couple in the car to get up, planning to eat breakfast and then hurry. But he shouted twice, but there was no sound in the car, the handlebar was suspicious, and when he opened the curtain of the carriage, there was no one in the car, only two taels of silver ingots with white flowers.

"Hey, hey!" Seeing the silver, a handlebar-style face immediately turned cloudy, picked up the silver and bit it with his teeth, saw that it was true, and hurriedly carried it in his arms. Running such a little Ruth to get two taels of silver, it's really a lot of money! As for the middle-aged couple who don't know where to go, what is the reason for him. The handlebar style bought a few buns in the town, and after a full meal, he drove back to Tianyin City.

Besides, the two missing couples have "cross-dressed" at this time, from middle-aged couples to young brothers and sisters, sitting in a stall eating fragrant fried noodles. The pair of young brothers and sisters were none other than Chu Lingfeng and Murong Shuxiang, and they left first while the handlebar style was not awake, and then changed their outfits and identities, and prepared to ride a horse.

Unfortunately, the town was too small to have any horse dealers, so it took a lot of effort to find a family in the town that was in need of money to sell horses. bought a horse, prepared some harness and dry food, tossed until more than half of the hour, and the two rode together and barely got on the road.

Murong Shuxiang sighed in her heart, she came to Donglin for more than half a month, and she just wanted to find a way to go back and return to her family and Wang Zhiyu, so she was ready to wander the world and bathe in blood, but at this time, she was trying her best to break free from the vicissitudes of the Yan country.

Ten in the evening, the two arrived at a county seat, the county seat is not big, but all the organs, rest for one night, the next day bought two strong horses to continue to hurry, two days later the two came to the ferry, changed to a waterway, down the river south, through the two countries, a river and a lake two natural hazards, and finally set foot on the land of the Lan country after seven days - Yanyundu. Since then, Murong Shuxiang has completely separated from the Yan Kingdom and stepped into the unpredictable rivers and lakes.

Lan Kingdom, the richest country in the Seven Kingdoms, can experience a golden atmosphere when you set foot on the land of Lan. I heard that the women of Lan Kingdom can inherit the family business and recruit husbands and servants, but they cannot engage in politics. Therefore, there are female shopkeepers everywhere in Lan Kingdom, but there is no female official.

In the suburbs in the early morning, the birdsong is crisp, the stream is murmuring, the flowers are green, and a girl in a dark purple dress is sitting by the stream, using the water as a mirror, gently combing her long silver-white hair.

"Ling Feng, from now on, we will clear the two of us, and we will ...... in the future"

"Murong Shuxiang!" Chu Lingfeng, who had changed his clothes and returned to his true appearance, interrupted Murong Shuxiang's words in a slightly angry tone, "In this unpredictable world of life and death, I don't think there was anything wrong with threatening you with a sword in the first place!" Do you have to be so resolute in what you do? Or is it because I'm picking up flowers......"

"It's not!" Murong Shuxiang decisively denied it, stood up, turned his head and said, "I, Murong Shuxiang, am not a good person, if I am implicated and lose my life one day, don't blame me." ”

"Naturally not!" Chu Lingfeng is colored. The girl in front of him is obviously a ruthless, cold-hearted guy, but he thinks that she is a trustworthy friend, and he must protect his friends.

"Ling Feng, is it okay not to go back to the master for so long?"

At the mention of the master, Chu Lingfeng's expression was gloomy, "I want to send you to Hidden Dragon Fort first." ”

"Have you thought about leaving?"

"Thought!" Chu Lingfeng said without hesitation: "I think about it all the time, but ...... After all, he nurtured me. ”

"Well, this kind of thing can sometimes be calculated, he has bad intentions for raising you, you have to do things for him in order to live, can't you clear up after such a long time?"

Chu Lingfeng let out a long sigh, "Two clear...... It's been clear for so many years, but it's not so easy to leave. ”

"Do you hate him?"

"Hate! But I can't kill him, I can't go until he dies. Chu Lingfeng said with murderous eyes.

"Why don't you borrow a knife and kill someone!"

"Borrow a knife to kill people......" Chu Lingfeng repeated softly, thoughtfully, "How to borrow?" ”

"There will be no shortage of people who come to Hidden Dragon Castle to learn the arts, and they must be mixed, so you might as well choose a few 'high-level qualifications' for the old monster."

Looking for an apprentice for the old monster? Chu Lingfeng thought about it for a while, it was already clear that this "upper-level qualification" was very knowledgeable, and he believed that the old monster also hoped that there would be a few more apprentices to inherit the mantle. If there are too many apprentices to destroy the old monster, there will be many innocent women who will suffer, hasn't Murong Shuxiang thought about this?

"You don't hesitate to hurt the innocent?"

"What are those decent people doing idle, I will do a good deed every day to provide them with an opportunity to eliminate harm for the people."

"Bookish ...... I suddenly feel like you're so scary! "An eleven or twelve-year-old girl, the depth of the city, the treachery of the mind, the poison of the means makes people shudder, and when she grows up, it is even more immeasurable, and it is really ...... to make friends with such a person Thrilling!

"Scared?" Murong Shuxiang chuckled, "It's too late to regret it now, so as not to point at my nose and scold me for eating people and not spitting out bones in the future." ”

"I'm really afraid!" Chu Lingfeng did not shy away from admitting, "I have never been afraid of real knives and real guns, but people with strange minds like you make people feel cold in the bone marrow, and if you are close, you will always be worried that you will be calculated if you are not careful." At least it will suffer a dark loss, and at worst, it will not be able to protect your life. ”

"Huh! Such a high opinion of me, thank you so much! Murong Shuxiang thanked Chu Lingfeng without any anger.

"That said, I believe you are a man of affection. To the doctor, to Rong Yuan, and me. Chu Lingfeng looked at Murong Shuxiang seriously, and there was no doubt of trust in his eyes.

"Don't speak too well of me, maybe I have a purpose!" Murong Shuxiang turned over and said, "It's not too early, let's hurry up, don't miss your master's 'good seedling'." ”
