Chapter 144 - Calculations

Duan Qingming listened, her eyes full of wisdom flashed, then she nodded and said:

"Tie Feng, in this case, you should first send someone to check in front and see if there are any people living in this twilight mountain?"

Tie Feng took the order and sent someone to the front to check first. At this time, the carriage began to move all the way, and along the way, Tie Feng strictly followed Duan Qingming's instructions and poured all the horse rice with water. Then, cover it with a light layer of snow. At this time, because the second snow is coming, the temperature in the mountains is gradually getting lower, and it doesn't take long for the water-soaked horse rice to really start to freeze!

When Tie Feng came back and told Duan Qingming all this, Duan Qingming just kept his eyes calm and didn't know what he was thinking!

All of this was seen by Yan Lingyu, although all this was not necessarily useful, but he only watched quietly, neither silently, nor did he seem to be ready to intervene!

Not long after moving forward, Duan Qingming heard the sound of the guards who had been sent out returning quickly. Not long after, Tie Feng stepped forward and reported to Duan Qingming through the window:

"Miss, the guard sent to investigate said that not far ahead, there is a family living in it!"

When Duan Qingming heard this, he was immediately overjoyed, so he whispered to Tie Feng through the window!

When Tie Feng heard this, he nodded again and again!

When we reached the vicinity where the family lived, the carriage stopped on the side of the road. Under the pretext of begging for saliva from the old man who was sweeping the snow at the door!

The family was a hunter, and his son went hunting in the mountains and did not return for several days. Only his wife and parents are left at home!

Usually, there are few people walking on this mountain road, at first sight of such a magnificent convoy, the old man of the family, in the warm beckoning them into the house to rest, after being politely refused, the old man came out with water, and casually asked:

"Little brother, where are you going?"

The guard, who was questioned, drank the hand in the scoop and filled it with a full bag, and then replied:

"Our young lady has finished the incense, and she is going back to her home in Qi County!"

The old man nodded, said "hard work", and turned to beckon the others to go!

At this moment, the lady in the car also stepped out of the car, because it was a woman, so this time it was a young woman who came out to greet her, that is, the wife of the hunter.

Because they were instructed in advance, these ladies drank water and took water very quickly! At this moment, suddenly, the widest carriage in the middle rang, and I saw a young lady, supported by the girl, slowly stepping out of the carriage!

The young lady was only about ten years old, and although her clothes were simple, she had a noble bearing and a graceful demeanor. I saw that she was wearing a hood, and she couldn't see her face clearly, only a pair of clear eyes could be faintly seen. Like a pearl soaked in mercury, it shines brightly and wisely!

That girl is none other than Duan Qingming.

She stepped out of the carriage and thanked the family. As he was leaving, he pulled out the hairpin he was wearing on his head and inserted it into the young woman's hair!

That young woman was Orion's wife, where had she ever worn something so valuable? She blushed, and hurriedly excused herself:

"This young lady, this is too precious, I can't help it, I can't help it!"

Duan Qingming smiled slightly, and between her lips and teeth, her voice was like a pearl falling on a jade plate:

"A porridge and a water are all graces, I just express a little gratitude, and please don't excuse my sister-in-law! What's more, I still have something to trust! ”

When the young woman heard that she had something to ask for, she accepted it shyly.

Afterwards, Duan Qingming thanked the family again and again, and then boarded the carriage and left slowly!

When he started to move forward again, Yan Lingyu, who had been resting with his eyes closed, suddenly opened a pair of dark eyes like ink, looked at Duan Qingming with burning eyes, and said:

"You want to lure the killers away?"

When he said these words, Yan Lingyu was lying down. Because he had just pulled out the poison, his face was pale and he was completely devoid of energy. However, even if he was dressed in simple white clothes and lying in the car with a lazy expression, his face still exuded a breathtaking light, which was heart-pounding!

In Duan Qingming's heart, he couldn't help but secretly say: "Demon." Then, quickly turn your head!

Hearing that Duan Qingming didn't answer, Yan Lingyu said lightly:

"For those people, it's useless!"

Yan Lingyu knew his opponent very well, knew that person's character, and the skills of those people in black, so he thought that Duan Qingming's efforts along the way were just useless tricks, and they could only be useless!

His efforts all the way were denied by someone with a word, Duan Qingming was not annoyed, just looked at the teacup on the small table, and said lightly:

"It's definitely not going to work to lure them away, I'm just trying to delay some time!"

Yan Lingyu smiled quietly, his direction was aimed at Duan Qingming's side face, and he only saw the young girl's quiet face, delicate eyebrows, and a pair of cunning, incomparably bright eyes. Obviously, she is a girl who is only ten years old, but you can always see a kind of resilience that belongs to adults from her, as well as tension and strength that ordinary people can't reach!

At this time, Duan Qingming's eyes were looking at the vast snow-capped mountains outside the window, her expression was focused and serious, and the glimmer of the snow outside the window made her stretch out half of her hand, white as jade!

Yan Lingyu looked at it and was rarely silent!

Or, just be with her like this, no matter the road ahead, it's a pleasure!

Seeing that the mountain road ahead was difficult, the carriage was bumpy again. He only frowned slightly, but did not speak!

Feeling the bump of the carriage, Duan Qingming glanced at Yan Lingyu carefully with some concern, only to see that the other party didn't know when, he closed his eyes again, his long eyelashes were vibrating rhythmically with the bumpy carriage, as if he was a dancing elf!

Duan Qingming looked at it blankly, almost lost his mind again, and after a while, he retracted his gaze, and secretly scolded himself in his heart not to be confused by this "master" watch!

Speaking of which, the farmer's medicine and acupuncture were quite useful, at least, Yan Lingyu's face had improved a lot, and it seemed that the toxins on his body had not rebounded again!

Looking at the sky, it was almost noon, and those guards, after a hurried journey, looked sleepy and tired. Duan Qingming thought about it, and the journey was almost complete. So, drive the carriage to a cave hiding from the snow, and then let everyone eat some dry food and rest!

The second snow had already begun to fall in a boiling manner, and on the mountain road, in the blink of an eye, snow flakes flew and debris drifted away. And it didn't take long for all the traces of the carriage tracks of Duan Qingming and his party to be submerged.

Duan Qingming asked people to spread a suspicious array around again, and then ordered Tie Feng to let people go out and guard outside, as long as those black-clothed people drove their horses over, they could go back!

***********

Besides, at the door of the farmer's house, sure enough, not long after Duan Qingming left, a group of black-clothed people galloped and chased after him. When they saw a farmer, the black-clothed men who had already driven their horses by, for some reason, dismounted again and asked the family for news! Ask if there is a carriage passing by!

That family was the Orion family that Duan Qingming passed by. The son is out, only an elderly couple, and a young daughter-in-law is at home. Because it is a peaceful and prosperous era now, and the four seas are peaceful, they do not avoid people.

Seeing that someone inquired about the whereabouts of the carriage, the old man said:

"Don't hide it from the official, this morning, a carriage passed in front of my house, and later, they had breakfast at my place, and then left!"

Right now, it's already lunchtime, if you've been here today, I'm afraid that those people have already arrived in Qi County! Yesterday, because they were surrounded by ambushes, Yan Lingyu was vigilant by nature, and they didn't dare to get too close, for fear of startling the snake. Therefore, at that time, they only knew that there were family members of the official family living temporarily in this Jiuhua Nunnery, but they didn't know that that person was Duan Qingming!

When the man in black heard this, he immediately became skeptical. At this moment, the old man's daughter-in-law pushed the door out, and when she saw someone, she looked shy and quickly shrank back. The blue curtain flickered, and her slender figure was drowned, but the dark guard's eyes were different from ordinary people.
