Gu Jinfeng's sword hilt was slightly oblique, and he suddenly lifted the long sword and placed it in front of him, and a crisp sound of 'poof' indicated that the two sides had officially begun to fight!

There were a total of eight guards who came to pursue this time, and they all flew off their horses and surrounded Gu Jinfeng in the middle, with long knives, Huo Huo, originally thought that so many people would definitely be able to deal with a kid, but when they were kicked outside without paying attention, they suddenly put away their contempt.

Gu Jinfeng's body is like a swallow, and he is extremely skilled in the use of a soft sword, even if there are so many people, he still can't get close to him!

The big man at the head frowned, what the hell is this guy!

But they were also ordered to come, and this time they were determined to bring these two back no matter what!

The crisp sound of weapons clashing came into Qi Ling's ears in the rain, and she was really not at ease at all holding the teacup, compared to Mu Chen opposite, he was drinking hot tea with a light smile.

"Shepherd... Where are you going? As soon as she asked this, she had the urge to beat herself, as early as the previous encounter, Gu Jinfeng had told herself that the identity of this Mu Chen was not simple, and now she asked like this, but she had a plan to show it.

Seeing him raise his eyebrows, Qi Ling had to quickly explain, "Eh, it's okay if you don't say it, I'm actually just looking for a topic to talk about casually......"

Mu Chen showed an expression of understanding: "Miss Qi is very nervous? ”

Qi Ling sighed, lowered his head and fiddled with the edge of the teacup and whispered, "Actually... It's not very nervous...... It's just a little restless. ”

"Are you worried about Brother Gu?"

"......" Qi Ling bit his lower lip and said nothing, but the meaning was obvious.

Mu Chen said softly, "If you don't mind, can you tell me why you and Brother Gu were hunted down by this group of people?" ”

'Plop! ’

The rain after the autumn was already a little chilly, poured on the body, and the oncoming wind blew all over the body a few times, Gu Jinfeng held the soft sword against the throat of the man at the head, didn't care about wiping the rain on his face, and asked coldly, "Su Chen sent you?!" ”

The man's face was unwilling, "Don't be complacent too early, what the saint wants today, do you think you can protect it alone?!" ”

He couldn't help but sneer, "Are you telling me that Su Chen was sent by the Holy Lord?" ”

As soon as the man heard that he was exposed, he immediately glared at him and was silent.

"Go back and tell Su Chen, I'm waiting for him in the capital, since you want this thing, then come to the capital to get it!"

After speaking, he withdrew the soft sword, the man was so angry, what kind of things are these people he brought, eight people were beaten down against one... If you go back and tell Master Su, then you will be scolded angrily.

Several people who collapsed to the side also stood up with their chests covered in mud, and the man glared at him viciously, "Go!" ”

Then they helped each other to get on their horses and fled in disarray.

At this moment, the rain gradually subsided, and there was a thick fog around him, Gu Jinfeng looked at the figures of several people and disappeared into the fog before turning around and entering the canopy.

"Actually, it's for one thing......" Qi Ling hesitated.

"For one thing?"

Mu Chen's eyes narrowed slightly, he saw the hesitation on Qi Ling's face, and he thought a little more in his heart, he had heard about the first richest Qi family during this time.

Gu Jinfeng, who was wet as he spoke, walked in, and Qi Ling hurriedly stood up from the bench and ran over with an anxious face.

"Are you alright? Did it hurt anywhere?! ”

Gu Jinfeng stroked the wet hair in front of his forehead and smiled, "I'm fine, it's just that my clothes are wet, I'll go to the carriage and change another one." ”

Qi Ling hurriedly handed him the package: "Go and change it, don't catch a cold!" ”

After Gu Jinfeng changed his clothes, the rain outside had almost stopped, and Dr. Tea saw that the danger had receded and hurriedly ran out of the corner, Qi Ling asked him if he had any ginger or something, and he quickly replied that there were yes, and it was in the backyard.

The weather was getting colder and colder, Gu Jinfeng had just been drenched in the rain, Qi Ling found ginger pieces, cut them into shreds and put them in the teapot where the tea was boiled and boiled into ginger tea, a cup of spicy ginger tea went down his stomach, and a wave of heat suddenly appeared in his limbs, washing away the moisture in his body.

Seeing that Mu Chen's guards were also drenched in the rain, Qi Ling boiled some more, "Mu Gongzi, I saw that the guards you accompanied were also drenched in the rain, why don't you drink some ginger tea, this autumn rain comes suddenly, and this time of alternating hot and cold is the most likely to get sick." ”

Mu Chen smiled and took it: "Then I will mention them, thank Miss Qi." ”

"You're welcome."

After drinking ginger tea and resting for a while, seeing that the sky was gradually brightening up and the rain had stopped, the two of them packed up and prepared to leave, and before leaving, they asked Mu Chen to give Gu Jinfeng a jade pendant with a unique shape.

"Brother Shepherd, this is ......"

"Brother Gu listen to me first, since you and Miss Qi are going to the capital, you will definitely have a place to settle down at that time, there are just a few mansions in my house, and you can go to Qingshui Pavilion with this jade pendant at that time, and someone will arrange a place for you to live at that time."

Gu Jinfeng hurriedly excused himself, "Brother Mu, this is too valuable, we can't accept it." ”

Mu Chen smiled and said, "Brother Gu, don't shirk, that's how I make friends, not to mention that you still have a life-saving grace for me, how about I repay it?" ”

The latter pondered for a long time, and finally accepted the jade pendant, and the coachman was ready at this moment, Qi Ling got into the carriage with his support, and after saying goodbye to Mu Chen, the carriage set off in the southeast direction.

Mu Chen quietly looked at the carriage and went away, then hooked his lips and smiled, and the guards on the side stepped forward and asked, "Young Master, let's set off here?" ”

He suddenly asked, "Meteor, did you see that fight when you were out there before?" ”

"Back to the young master, my subordinates have seen it, this Gu Gongzi made a neat move, but he didn't have any murderous intentions, otherwise these people would definitely not have a chance to go back alive."

He shook his head, "I don't think it's that he doesn't have murderous intentions, but these attendants are not small, he can't kill, just outside Brother Gu once mentioned the name Su Chen......"

Saying this, he rubbed his temples and whispered, "I remember that the name of the squire of the Criminal Department was called that." ”

Meteor replied, "Yes, the current Shangshu of the Criminal Department is old and weak, and most of the affairs of the Criminal Department have been handed over to this Master Su, and I don't think he will inevitably ascend to the position of Shangshu in the spring of the next year." ”

"I see." Mu Chen nodded thoughtfully: "I remember that the case of the Guan Qi family is now being investigated by Song Rujin?" ”

"Yes, young master, my subordinates heard that these two people are quite close."

"Let Su Chen send someone to chase and kill, plus Miss Qi said before about a thing ......" Mu Chen rubbed his chin and pondered quietly, and after a while, he figured out the reason, and laughed lowly on his lips.

Looking up at the carriage that had disappeared without a trace, the smile on his face was extraordinarily bright: "These are finally good shows." ”

Starting from Wanshui Town to the capital, it takes almost three days at the earliest, plus staying overnight, Qi Ling has lost a lot of weight in just two days.

Gu Jinfeng was extremely distressed, for the sake of insurance, the inn where the two of them stayed was booked a room, Qi Ling slept in the bed, and he made the floor.

At the same time, Song Rujin, who was far away in the capital, received an urgent report from Su Chen secretly, explaining his speculation and confirmation, and indicating that he would obtain the drawings of the location of the treasure as soon as possible.

After Song Rujin read the letter, he burned it all, and muttered to himself: "This Su Chen is quite neat, and it is not in vain for me, I took the trouble to bring him to this position." ”

"Someone."

The guard guarding the door walked in, "What do you command?" ”

He lifted the brush and said lightly: "Go to Xu's Mansion to pay respects, and say that I have something important to see Master Xu." ”
