Chapter 42: Panjiang City? Panlong City!
"Who are you?!" Guifu drank that after the last experience of being assassinated, this time he was obviously more experienced, and he was not so panicked.
It's just that the other party didn't speak, and stabbed it directly. The guards rushed up to protect their master, Guifu escorted Qing Ye Zhuo to the side, Qing Ye Zhuo did not show a panicked look from beginning to end, these people are obviously not the same as the previous killer, just a little strange, he squinted and said nothing.
The guards fought with the two black-clad and masked killers, and these two killers were better than these guards, and two of the four guards were already injured, but the injuries were not serious, they were only skin injuries. And these two men in black didn't kill or let them go, this is even more like they are - they are delaying time!
Just as the hands and feet of the four guards were injured, Qing Ye's eyes sharpened, and two more black-clothed men rushed down from the trees and rushed into the battle. These two were the dark guards of the Nightburn, and they were on par with, if not more than, the two men in black, and it didn't take long for them to slowly retreat until they turned around and disappeared from the woods.
"No need to chase." Nightburn stopped the Dark Guard's continued pursuit, and the Dark Guard listened to the order and hid and disappeared.
"Master, the guards are all injured, but the minor injuries are not in the way, but they are all hands and feet, and they can't ride horses." Guifu said after examining the injuries of several guards.
"Let them meet later, and we'll go first." Qing Yezhuo nodded, it seemed that he was right. These two people didn't want to kill them, they just wanted to delay time, and these two people were eighty percent of his people!
Thinking of this, Qing Yezhuo frowned, stepped back into the carriage, and chased forward, this time has been wasted some time, if you don't chase after it, I am afraid that it will be difficult to find it if the fish swims in the sea.
"Master, there is Panjiang City ahead." Guifu's face was beaming.
"Let's go!" The two finally caught up, only to find an unmanned carriage near the city gate.
"Check it out." Qing Ye Burning ordered, with some bad premonitions in his heart.
"Yes." Guifu first looked around, and found that no one had claimed the carriage, and then carefully lifted the curtain, which was empty, but the bedding box was still there. He rummaged through it at random, and found nothing dangerous, but there was still a trace of temperature on the mat, and it seemed that the person had just left.
"Master, no one." Guifu shouted at Qing Ye Zhuo.
Qing Yezhuo walked over, this carriage has a luxurious body, and it is not something that ordinary people can enjoy.
"Master, this person should have only been gone for a long time, and the cushion is still a little warm." Guifu told him what he knew.
Qing Yezhuo lifted the curtain and glanced at it, but just as he was about to turn back, he suddenly fixed his gaze in one place. He took out the red-lacquered food box and opened it gently with a trembling hand.
"Young!" Qing Ye couldn't help but be overjoyed, yes, it was his child.
What is in this food box is nothing else, it is Tao Yaoyao's favorite jade cake.
"Master?" Guifu was a little worried when he saw his master in such a gaffe, and when he saw that the food in the food box was jade cake, it instantly froze.
Who loves jade cake the most?
Why is the master so discolored?
Why did the master abandon everything and chase after him desperately?
At the beginning of the period, he thought it was because of the woman who looked like a peach concubine, and it was understandable that the master pinned his acacia on him. Later, I felt that I had seen the situation in the South Sudan and wanted to find out, but I needed to work so hard?
Only now did he know that it was for her. So, Concubine Tao didn't die?
Thinking of this, Guifu was also excited. If the mother didn't die in the fire and didn't die under the cliff, it would be really a blessing! The only person in the world who can have such blessings is Concubine Tao. The point is that if Niangniang returns to the palace, a group of them will not have to work so hard, and they will not have to be in such pain.
Every day against a master who may be angry at the next moment, every day against a master who doesn't like to eat or drink soup, the most said every day is that the master you rest, the master you pay attention to the dragon body, the master you have to pay attention to the body, the master Beigao can't live without you, but his own master doesn't appreciate it at all, treats himself as a cow, and doesn't care about his body at all, he almost thinks that the master is not like this on purpose.
It's okay now, Concubine Tao is back, after the rain, all the good things are back.
But the ideal is very beautiful, the reality is very cruel, people completely pretend not to know their own masters, and they run away with the princes of other families, eh!
Guifu has completely forgotten at this moment that he still had a lot of complaints about Tao Yao a few days ago, thinking that she is a vixen, a charming woman who seduces her master, and now she is indeed full of hope, hoping that Tao Yao Yao can return to Qing Yezhuo's side.
"Didn't you say she's just a short-term worker?" Seeing that the beautiful woman was imminent, Qing Ye quickly went to the city, and casually left a sentence.
This sentence can kick Guifu, who is still excited, directly from the cloud to the ground, Guifu cried with a sad face, hurriedly followed, but kept praying in his heart: Niangniang, Guifu is not sensible, Guifu has no long eyes, you must not go to your heart! Biyun is still waiting for you in the palace!
Just when Qing Yezhuo and He Guifu were desperately chasing after them, Tao Yaoyao and his party had just arrived at Panjiang City, which was only two days away from the imperial city of Nansu, but it was a city very close to Beigao. Because of this, the merchants of Panjiang City are resident and the traffic is busy, so it will be extraordinarily prosperous. At the same time, because of the gathering of a large number of people from different regions, Panjiang City is not as orderly as other places, relatively chaotic, but overall it is quite clear.
Tao Yaoyao and a few people got off the carriage at the city gate, and the three of them got on the road lightly.
After entering the city, Tao Yaoyao's mood is also very good, looking east and west, so lively.
"This is Panjiang City." Gu Zhiqi explained with a smile.
"Panjiang City? What a majestic name. Tao Xiaoyao listened, flashed a pair of bright eyes, and replied curiously.
"This city has existed hundreds of years ago, and it is said that it was originally called Panlong City, because the people who lived here once found the shadow of a red dragon, and the clouds trembled with thousands of miles of red light. Later, some people said that it was just made by Yunxia in the sky, and the name was changed to Panjiang City. Gu Zhiqi patiently explained.
Tao Yaoyao nodded, there are many mythological allusions in many places, "Then isn't the clouds in this Panjiang City very beautiful?" ”
"What I said is that Panjiang City is rich in three things." Gu Zhiqi will also sell the guanzi.
"One must be Yunxia, and there are two more." Tao Yaoyao also took the bait and asked curiously.
"The second is gold, Panjiang City is prosperous and prosperous, but it is not as good as a hundred cities, here, you can buy a lot of fresh things that you can't buy or even haven't seen, the merchants here come from all over the world, as long as you have a mind and ideas, even if you are penniless, even if you are from a humble background, there is also the possibility of getting ahead here, so it is known as a golden place everywhere by the world." Gu Zhiqi was a little proud when he said this.
"A land of gold...... I think her homeland was once known as the land of gold, but unfortunately, I don't know if there is a possibility of going back...... If anything is possible here, why is it a dream to go back? How do you know if you don't try. Tao Yao settled down, but she was a little grateful to take care of it, if it wasn't for him, she was still living in a mess.
"And the third?" Tao Yaoyao continued to ask, but found that Gu Zhiqi's face turned red, and he skimmed his head to the side, and even his steps were faster.
"What's wrong?" Tao Yaoyao was a little unclear, but Gu Zhiqi was a little dodgy and did not answer.
"Girl, this third is a beauty." It was Gu Zhiqi's personal entourage who spoke, and it seemed that his temperament was also straightforward.
"Mo Yan, Hugh has to talk nonsense!" Gu Zhiqi reprimanded with a red face.
The entourage named Mo Yan held his mouth, a little aggrieved, he clearly said the truth.
"Hahaha-" Tao Xiaoyao laughed loudly when she saw it, and the clouds in her heart also dispersed.
The journey back was like a thick fog, and she couldn't see the way, so she had to find a way out first.
"By the way, is there any place in Nansu where people have gone and suddenly disappeared, do you know?" Tao Xiaoyao just casually asked, if there really is a place like Bermuda, why not be a hope.
Who knew that Gu Zhiqi's originally smiling face instantly became serious when he heard it.
"Why do you ask this question?" Gu Zhiqi's voice was a little low.
Hey? Looking at the expression, could it be that the blind cat bumped into a dead mouse, is there really one? It seems that there is a play!
"Oh, when I was in the Medicine King Valley, I saw a book that recorded a lot of strange things, and one of them said that there was a place in Nansu, where people would disappear when they went, and some people would appear in another place after many years without knowing what had happened to them, and the people around them were old, but those people were still the same. This is not very unusual, could it be true? Tao Yao leaned closer, and her fluttering eyelashes made her look charming.
"I see." Gu Zhiqi's serious expression slowly relaxed, looking at Tao Yaoyao's excitement and curiosity, she couldn't bear to erase it, it was not an extremely important thing, so she got her wish.
"This matter is a secret record in the palace, remember not to spread it to the outside world, so as not to disturb people's hearts." It's still a cautious reminder.
"I swear, I'll never tell anyone!" Tao Xiaoyao immediately swore three oaths to show his will.
Gu Zhiqi nodded, and then said: "There is indeed this place, but it is not so hanging. Those who recorded the wild news or listened to the oral rumors of others exaggerated their words, but those people did not forget what happened, nor did they say it all the time. ”
"Oh, what's wrong with that?" Tao is a little urgent.
"Those people — they never came back." Gu Zhiqi said softly.
