Chapter 850: The True Face of the Horseman
Climbing over the two courtyard walls and returning to the familiar room, Huangfu Xiaoyuan tore off her veil and black robe, and her face was a little unpleasant.
In front of the table, Lu Hanjiang was reading the villain's book at night, Huangfu Xiaoyuan's movements were too big, and the cold wind blew when the window opened, almost letting the fire hit the writing.
Lu Hanjiang hurriedly stretched out his hand to block it, and then looked back at Huangfu Xiaoyuan helplessly: "Even if you don't like to walk through the door, can you move lightly, this book is a lone book, Lao Cui ran a few streets to get it back from the stall." ”
Huangfu Xiaoyuan is obviously not in the mood to chat with Lu Hanjiang today, the indifference in her eyes eased slightly, but her tone was still a little cold: "I missed today." ”
"Oh?" Lu Hanjiang blinked in disbelief, put down the villain book, looked at Huangfu Xiaoyuan and said, "Is there really anyone in the Huo family who can find you?" Could it be that particular groom you mentioned last time? ”
Huangfu Xiaoyuan's martial arts, Lu Hanjiang is very clear, although the other party is young, but his skills are not inferior to those masters who have been famous for many years.
In addition, there are unreasonable hole cards like the Three Swords of the Heavenly Dao, even if she is against the heads of those first-class factions, she may not have no possibility of winning.
And the Huo family, when the Sword Casting Villa was still alive, they had never heard of any masters, and now the Sword Casting Villa is gone, and none of the people around Huo Yunqi can fight.
And those Jianghu helpers who have a relationship with the Huo family, Jinyiwei has also checked them one by one, and there were indeed many good hands who received Huo Tianya's favor back then, but these people left after paying off their favors.
Now Huo Yunqi is left by most of the people who are not well-known, and his strong momentum is enough, but if he wants to talk about playing with a master like Huangfu Xiaoyuan, he obviously looks down on himself too much.
"I wanted to check the details of that person, but I didn't expect to be countered by him." Huangfu Xiaoyuan's tone was a little cold, but it was not aimed at Lu Hanjiang, but the guy in her mouth.
Tonight, Huangfu Xiaoyuan re-entered the courtyard of the Huo family, and wanted to quietly follow the groom, but she never thought that the other party not only saw through her thoughts, but also planned to take her and began to circle her.
That's not all, in the end, this madman was so bold that he directly killed the black shopkeeper who came to the courtyard unexpectedly.
The death of the black shopkeeper attracted the knights in the front yard, and the emperor Xiaoyuan was annoyed that she had found nothing tonight, and when she was about to leave, she met the groom again.
This guy looks ordinary, it can be said to be mediocre, but for some reason, Huangfu Xiaoyuan always felt that the other party was familiar, so when she was stunned, this person deliberately made a move and exposed her.
This led to the fact that the swordsman later spotted her figure, and then shouted, provoking all the knights to rush up, so that she had to take action.
Sending a group of unruly guys is at most a little unhappy in her heart, and what really makes Huangfu Xiaoyuan angry is that she has been led by this mysterious guy from beginning to end.
Lu Hanjiang, who learned about the passing by from the mouth of Huangfu Xiaoyuan, was also quite interested in this groom for a while, and he immediately thought: "This person is interesting, Xiaoyuan, let's go meet him." ”
"Okay." Huangfu Xiaoyuan immediately responded, turned around and was about to leave.
However, Lu Hanjiang also quickly said: "But it's getting late today, let's go again tomorrow." ”
Although he really wanted to meet this person immediately, Lu Hanjiang didn't want to go out at night to be tired, so he naturally postponed the time a little.
“.” Hearing this, Huangfu Xiaoyuan paused, and then quickly climbed out of the window, this time still not remembering to close the window easily.
Lu Hanjiang shook his head helplessly, got up and closed the window, blew out the candlelight, and went back to the bedroom.
What they didn't know was that in the Huo family at this moment, Huo Yunqi was staring at the big bloodshot eyes, issuing a series of orders to everyone.
The Huo family was attacked tonight, the black shopkeeper died tragically, the assassin did not show his true face and his martial arts were strong, in his opinion, these eighty percent were in the right path to do the black hand.
The other party's only concern was that he couldn't come openly, so Huo Yunqi had to prevent all sneak attacks from the shadows.
Just as he was methodically issuing orders, an ordinary-looking groom was silently cleaning the manger in the inconspicuous stables in the backyard.
The friend who was on an errand with the Huo family walked behind him drunkenly and looked at him in surprise: "Old Wu? Why don't you go to rest yet? What time has it been? ”
"You go first, I'll finish my work and then go back." When the groom spoke, the overly bright color in his eyes was quickly removed, and when he turned his head, only stupidity and straightforwardness remained.
"Alas, I can't control you, there is still a fool like you in the world, what if you raise this horse to be able to travel thousands of miles a day, it is only right to live your own life."
The friend lectured to himself, and when he saw that the groom was deaf, he turned his head and began to work again.
"Stupid you've got it." He glared at the other man with some annoyance, and then strode away.
The groom did not pay the slightest attention to his friend's words, and in a place where others could not see, the groom's eyes reappeared, and he stroked the mane of the white horse in the circle, and murmured, "Come on." ”
The horseman's palm landed on the white horse in the circle, and the other party kept hiding backwards as if frightened, and kept letting out a panicked cry from his mouth.
The horse reined in the horse's rope, and the palm of his hand gently brushed the horse's back, accompanied by a whining from high to low, and the white horse collapsed to the ground, even the whimper was so weak.
"Horse, horse, I have worked tirelessly to take care of you all these days, you should also give me something, I have an important guest tonight, you must not make a fuss, tomorrow I will get you some good forage, okay?"
The groom spoke softly, then put his hand on the white horse's neck, and after a brief struggle, the white horse's body gradually stiffened, and finally returned to a dead silence.
After killing the white horse with his own hands, the groom gently put his hand over the stiff face, and after a few moments, he saw a lifelike human skin mask torn off by him.
The true face behind the mask is not someone else, it is the head of the Gongsun family who is rumored to be transferred by the Xuantian Sect on the rivers and lakes, Gongsun Huan.
Even if he wears the coarse old clothes of the subordinates, Gongsun Huan still has a detached temperament that is incomparable to others, when he is dressed as a groom, he can prepare food for the horses without mind, tidy up the horse ring with his bare hands, and dispose of the stinky horse manure with his own hands.
But now after he took off the mask, Gongsun Huan seemed to immediately regain the identity and even character of the head of the family, he glanced at the horse ring behind him with disgust, took water and washed his hands four or five times before stopping.
In the quiet courtyard, Gongsun Huan stood with his hands in his hands, raised his eyes to look at the moon, a touch of cold moonlight sprinkled down, his shadow became longer and longer, dark, mysterious, with an arrogant smile on the corner of his mouth, quietly waiting for the arrival of guests.
The night passed quickly, but unfortunately, the guest that Gongsun Huan was waiting for did not appear.
