Chapter Eighty-Seven: Change

On the morning of the second day, Yang Mo cultivated in front of the hut to consolidate his cultivation.

But as soon as noon passed, he showed a puzzled look and unconsciously looked out of the door.

He stayed here for three months, and Xia Ling'er was inconvenient to live together, so he lived in the inn of Qingshuidu and delivered him food every day.

In the past, at this time, Xia Ling'er should have already delivered the food, but today there has been no trace.

After waiting for a while, Yang Mo felt that something was wrong in his heart, so he picked up the black sword and rushed towards Qing Shuidu.

As soon as he entered Qingshuidu, he was surprised to see that the inn where Xia Ling'er was originally staying had been burned to ruins.

Above the charred ruins, you can still see smoke rising from it, and the fire has not been extinguished.

Instinctively, Yang Mo felt that this fire must be related to Xia Ling'er.

Just as he was about to find some people to ask about the cause of the fire, several ill-intentioned people next to him stared at him.

Feeling the gaze of these people, Yang Mo thought that these local snakes must know about this inn, so he deliberately led a few people into an alley.

Seeing that Yang Mo was getting more and more remote, those people immediately took out their blades and followed with excitement, blocking Yang Mo in the alley.

A man at the head looked at Yang Mo and said with an unscrupulous expression: "Boy, my brothers have been short of money recently, and I want to borrow some money from you to spend it." ”

Yang Mo grinned and sneered as he looked at the scabbard with his finger and said, "It's okay to borrow money, but you have to answer me a question, what's going on with the fire in the inn!" ”

But after he finished speaking, he saw that the faces of the few people who blocked him changed, and they were obviously a little abnormal.

"Why are you asking this, hurry up and hand over the money, and don't talk nonsense with the uncle."

The man who spoke pretended to be fierce and waved his knife, but Yang Mo could see that the other party was avoiding his question.

Thinking that these people knew Xia Ling'er's news, he was anxious about what Xia Ling'er was doing, so he didn't bother to talk nonsense with these people.

As soon as he showed his skills, his body flashed in front of several people like ghosts, and they didn't even see what he had done.

But then, except for the man who had just spoken, a trace of blood oozed from the foreheads of the rest of the people, and then they slowly fell to the ground and died.

Yang Mo stood in front of the only man alive and said coldly, "You'd better tell me what happened to that inn last night!" ”

Seeing such a strange death of his companion, the man was so frightened that he immediately fell to his knees and peed his pants on the spot.

"This son, I was just ordered to set a fire last night, and when I went to the inn, all the people in the inn died."

The man's mouth trembled as he spoke.

"Is there a woman in yellow among those dead?" Yang Mo's tone was very worried.

The man hurriedly replied, "Not really, there were only men and not a woman among the corpses." ”

Hearing this, Yang Mo immediately let go of his worries, since Xia Ling'er was not among those dead, most of them were taken away.

"Who told you to set the fire?"

"It was Boss Xue on the dock who asked us to go, and he lives in the gambling house next to the dock."

When Yang Mo heard this, he knew that if he wanted to find Xia Ling'er's clues, he had to ask this Xue Boss.

Thinking of this, he jumped onto the roof next to him and ran towards the western dock.

The wharf of Qingshuidu is very easy to find, and the Xue family gambling house next to the pier is also quite conspicuous, Yang Mo saw it at a glance when he arrived at the wharf.

After he walked into the gambling house with his sword, he stopped a guy and asked, "Where is your boss Xue?" ”

The guy was busy greeting the gamblers, and pointed to the back of the gambling house with some anxiety: "Boss Xue is in the backyard." ”

When Yang Mo heard this, he walked directly towards the backyard, and as soon as he opened the curtain, he was stopped by two strong men, ready to ask him.

But how could Yang Mo have the heart to entangle with these people at this time, and his palm was imprinted on the hearts of the two of them with lightning speed, and when he let them, they were both heartbroken and collapsed.

Walking to the front of the house in the backyard, before anyone arrived, he heard someone talking in a whisper, Yang Mo hurriedly picked up the Zixia Divine Skill and listened.

An obscene voice said: "Boss Xue, we killed really happily last night, but it's a pity that the little girl who was in the water was taken away before she could touch it." ”

Another person said in a deep voice: "Don't talk nonsense, that's the person King Li wants, let's help those adults, it's enough to get the inn title deed." ”

Hearing this, Yang Mo slashed open the door with a sword, and rushed in with his sword.

I saw that in the room, two men were drinking around a round table, and a small servant was waiting next to them.

One of the tall and thin men saw Yang Mo coming in, stood up and scolded with anger on his face: "Which bastard are you, dare to ......"

But as soon as this person was halfway through his words, Yang Mo flashed out with a black sword, splitting this person in half on the spot.

Then, he raised his black sword, which was still dripping with blood, and pointed at the other person at the round table and asked, "Say, where has the little girl you said been taken?" ”

The man saw Yang Mo looking so fierce and vicious, and he immediately stammered in fright.

"That'...... The little girl is ...... It was captured by King Li's men, followed by Jinyiwei's people, saying that they were going to be sent to Changsha and handed over to King Li. ”

After Yang Mo heard this, he swung out another sword, causing the person to separate his head on the spot.

Getting the news he wanted, he turned to the little guy who was already paralyzed in fright and asked, "Are there any horses in this gambling house?" ”

The little guy replied tremblingly, "Just ...... It's right behind the house. ”

After listening, Yang Mo turned around and went to the back of the room, took out two healthy horses, and rode towards the official road to the north.

But what he didn't know was that not long after he left, the little guy who was trembling just now stood up with a gloomy face.

He took a pen and wrote down a note, then went to the backyard of the gambling house and loaded it on the foot of a carrier pigeon, and released it.

At noon on the second day, in a secret stronghold of Jinyiwei in Xintian County, Huguang, the Sang Baihu who Yang Mo knew was reporting to Shangguan with a nervous expression.

"Lord Zhenfu, the Guangxi spies sent a secret report from the flying pigeon, saying that a master is chasing us and wants to rescue this Xia Ling'er."

Saying that, Sang Baihu said: "My lord, I have seen this master before, and his swordsmanship is very good, so we should be cautious." ”

As soon as Sang Baihu's words were finished, the envoy had not yet responded, but he heard a voice next to him coming from a neutral voice.

"Master Li, I need Duan to help you solve this trouble."

Looking in the direction, the person who spoke was an imposing middle-aged man with a red face.

"Mr. Duan just needs to take a good look at that little girl, don't let people run away like last time, and be questioned by the national teacher again."

After the middle-aged man finished speaking, the brocade-clothed guard beside him, who was full of flesh and had a strong body, made a mocking speech, and from the tone of his voice, he could hear that the two were very untreatable.

When Mr. Duan heard this, his face was full of anger, but as if he had some scruples, he quickly turned his head and ignored it.

After the Jinyi Wei envoy finished taunting, he turned his head to look at Sang Baihu again.

"Go and draw the portrait of that man, and pass it to all the departments along the way with a letter eagle, so that they can gather men and kill the person you said, and never allow him to come near Changsha."
