Chapter 3 Gathering Like Things

Qu Yilan retracted into the carriage and looked out along the broken curtain, Sakura carefully sat next to her, "What does Miss think?" ”

"Senior Brother said that the enemy family happened to see us, but the other party was obviously completely prepared to raid, because Senior Brother Seven didn't recognize which sect the other party was, who would know early in the morning that he was going out today to prepare for a sneak attack."

"Miss, but you suspect that Hua Yueying is full?"

"I'm going to Yuliu Mountain very suddenly, and I set off the next day after the first day, where would outsiders know this. But if it was really her, how could she have such a person in her hands? "Qu Yilan is only afraid that Hua Yueying already has some of the power of the Qing Sect in her hands.

Sakura knew that Qu Yilan was going to be anxious again, "Won't it?" She is also a lady, and it is normal for some people to protect her. Besides, it doesn't have to be. ”

Qu Yilan's voice was weak, "No matter who it is, they will definitely come again." Moreover, in the recent rainy season, the mountain road is difficult to walk, if the other party takes advantage of that time to make another move, maybe these people will be injured, the seventh senior brother must have thought of this, he has to be vigilant all the time. ”

At this moment, Mu Hanyue's voice outside the carriage sounded, "Young master, we will escort nearby, if there is something, you can shout." ”

Qu Yilan reopened the torn curtain and saw Mu Hanyue riding a horse beside her. She immediately met the smiling eyes of the seventh senior brother, there was comfort and firmness in them. She looked left and right, and it turned out that all the disciples had changed their marching formation and gathered around her carriage.

She was a little relieved in her heart, and thanked her astringently, "Thank you, Senior Brother Seven~"

"Nothing."

After all, this is Qu Yilan's first time going out, and it is also the first time she is in danger outside, and she actually doesn't know the details of the seventh senior brother. If he had known that there would be a surprise attack, he should have sent the senior brother and the third senior brother to come violently. Mu Hanyue is ranked seventh, still too young.

The closer it was to dark, the more worried Mu Hanyue became, this black cloud was slow to fall on his head, and it was estimated that what was waiting for them was a rare pouring rain. If it's too late, you'll have to lose sight of the road completely, and if you encounter another surprise attack, I'm afraid it won't be so easy to deal with.

Mu Hanyue had already roughly guessed the intentions of those assassins, if it wasn't to test the truth, it was to startle the snake. Even if the other party doesn't do it tonight, they have to stay up, and if they don't do it tomorrow night, they still have to stay up.

Just as he was thinking about going to the inn in the village in front of him to rest for safety, or hiding in the wilderness for the time being tonight. Qu Yilan opened the curtain of the car again and asked him, "Senior brother, what should we do tonight?" ”

Mu Hanyue saw that Qu Yilan also raised this question, and knew that this little girl had a lot of thoughts, "I'm still thinking about it, I'm afraid that living in the wild will make you suffer too." ”

"It's okay, the carriage is also very spacious, Lan'er is not so squeamish."

While the two were talking, Mu Hanyue suddenly looked at the road with sharp eyes. Qu Yilan leaned on the window frame and looked sideways, and saw a black figure at the end of the road in the distance, walking slowly and slowly.

Mu Hanyue immediately put the sword in her hand and said to her, "You go in first." ”

"Having a senior brother here will definitely keep me safe, but this person is ......" Qu Yilan squinted her eyes and looked at the person in the distance, because the sky was dim, she couldn't see it really, and she always felt that the other party was a little weird.

Mu Hanyue didn't ask Qu Yilan to get into the carriage again, but the previous attack made everyone too vigilant, he secretly leaned towards Qu Yilan with his sword, and all the disciples of the Qing Sect were also on guard.

The two people kept getting closer, and Qu Yilan slowly saw the person clearly. It was a thin, thin boy in his early tens, unkempt, ragged, and with glaring new wounds.

Mu Hanyue breathed a sigh of relief and said, "It's just a beggar." "But now that the situation is critical, the enemy is dark and I am clear, Mu Hanyue still cautiously and secretly signaled the disciples to be cautious until this person leaves.

The boy drew closer and closer, struggling with every step and losing his soul. Mu Hanyue and the others stopped moving, but the boy only walked slowly, as if he was blind to the tense knights around him. And the moment he passed by, he even completely ignored Mu Hanyue's fierce gaze, and didn't even glance sideways at this group of people.

Qu Yilan looked at him lying on the edge of the window, and suddenly thought in her heart, such a person looked more like a sudden change, and he was definitely not a beggar.

Suddenly, the boy stumbled and almost fell, but he quickly stretched out a thin hand to the ground and stopped leaning forward. But this sudden movement made Mu Hanyue, who had been preparing to make a move for a long time, and the boy took a deep breath and straightened up to face the sharp blade.

Mu Hanyue's slender willow eyebrows were tightly locked together, condescendingly blocking in front of him, he pointed his sword at the boy's throat and asked coldly, "Who are you?" ”

The boy finally gave Mu Hanyue a look, and he tilted his head and responded in an equally cold voice, "I'm passing by." ”

Qu Yilan was lying on the edge of the carriage window and struggling to support her body, she jumped over Mu Hanyue's shoulder, and suddenly saw the boy's eyes looking at Mu Hanyue, his eyes were cold and impatient all year round. Qu Yilan recognized this look, and before leaving the Qing Gate, she would see such eyes as long as she sat in front of the mirror. They are all the same kind of people who have been abandoned by fate......

Mu Hanyue was about to have a seizure, when a soft and weak voice came from behind her, "Senior brother, forget it." ”

Mu Hanyue still stared at the boy for a long time, but in the end she obeyed Qu Yilan, he slowly put away his sword and said sharply: "Hurry up!" ”

The boy looked at Qu Yilan for a long time, and the girl sitting in the luxurious and simple carriage had an unhealthy yellow complexion, and her thin body was incompatible with the brocade clothes. Although they look at different situations, they are all the same kind of people, and they are all people who are struggling desperately in the bull ghosts, snakes, and gods in order to survive.

In the end, he walked around Mu Hanyue and walked in front of Qu Yilan and asked, "You want to go to the front?" ”

"Will pass by the front station."

"Let's take a detour, then."

"Yes."

Seeing that Qu Yilan should get down, he turned around and was about to leave. He, like Qu Yilan, helps each other out of the maintenance of his kind.

But Mu Hanyue recognized his "detour" just now as a provocation and deception, and once again blocked his way and asked, "What did you mean just now!" ”

"I'm not boredβ€”"

Before he finished speaking, Mu Hanyue picked up his collar and lifted it up, Qu Yilan immediately exclaimed, "Senior brother! Mu Hanyue looked at her angrily, and she said timidly, "Senior brother...... Let's go. ”

Mu Hanyue was impetuous, threw the boy on the side of the road with all his might, and scolded the accompanying disciples, "Let's go!" ”

The boy didn't move this time, and the action he maintained, he sat in place and watched several carriages go away one after another, and the bright blue gate mark behind the carriage was particularly dazzling.

As the carriage marched, Qu Yilan continued to lie on the window and asked Mu Hanyue, who had an unkind face, "Senior brother, do we want to continue?" ”

He said with a calm face, "I don't know what that kid's intentions are, don't be gullible and can't not believe it." Go to the post station first, if there is really no way for us to stay and leave. ”

Qu Yilan retracted into the car silently, she had almost no intersection with Senior Brother Seven before, and she didn't know the details of the other party, she didn't dare to provoke others. What's more, his escort and protection are all called acting on orders, and it is impossible to know how many sincerity there are. It's already difficult for you, but you can't make enemies anymore.

Sakura moved over and looked at her with concern, "Miss, your face is not very good." The beggar just now...... Is it really believable? ”

Qu Yilan shook her head slowly, "He's not a beggar, if it's true, why didn't he come forward to ask for money when he saw so many of us and goods." He's probably just going to get down for a while, and he'll get better. When Qu Yilan spoke, she probably also had hope for her situation.

Sakura suddenly, "That's right, that young lady thinks what he said just now is somewhat credible?" ”

"It should be true, don't say whether he fell on purpose, even if it was intentional, but if I didn't say anything, he wouldn't have a chance to say that to me. Not to mention ......"

"What's more?"

"I can't tell, I don't feel like it will hurt me, anyway, Senior Brother Seventh has already made a decision, and I can't persuade him." I just hope that Senior Brother Seventh can dutifully bring her to the place......

The carriage drove more rapidly, and seeing that the sky was completely dark, Mu Hanyue's face was even more gloomy than the sky. He is younger than several senior brothers, and rarely has the opportunity to come out to do things. This time, such an important errand as escorting the young master was handed over to him, and if something went wrong, he would never have to return to the sect in the future.

Just when it was completely dark, they finally reached the little village. It is said to be a village, but in fact, it is an official road station, and there are several thatched huts built by many people on the side of the road. During the day, there is a stall here to sell tea, fruits and vegetables or noodles for passers-by. Now these small shops are empty, only the post station is still shining.

After the carriage stopped, Mu Hanyue first looked up and down the post station and confirmed that even the shopkeeper was the original person who had not changed, so he was relieved to let a few entourages unload the car.

Qu Yilan also followed the crowd into the room, and she felt uneasy. The night behind him was so quiet that even the stalls turned into even darker shadows in the black. The air was so humid and hot that she almost suffocated. However, the post station was brightly lit, and the shopkeeper and Xiao Er were talking and laughing loudly, bustling. She seems to stand on the dividing line of the world. Mu Hanyue saw her standing at the door and did not move, so she greeted her, and she slowly followed the footsteps of everyone.

There are several simple rooms on the second floor of the inn, and Sakura and Qu Yilan are arranged in one room. When she was about to rest, Mu Hanyue came to the door again and told her again, "I'm in the next room, I won't sleep dead at night, call me when there is something unusual, or throw something to make a noise." Be vigilant at night, I'm not afraid to toss a few times, as long as you're safe. ”
