Li Gou'er originally wanted to scratch a tongue.

But when the guard said that the other party was using a crossbow, he immediately gave up the idea.

You must know that in Daxia, the crossbow is a weapon that is expressly forbidden to appear among the people.

If it is discovered, it will be dealt with according to the rebellion, and it will be confiscated at least and beheaded at worst.

So even mountain bandits don't use this weapon.

Therefore, there are only two types of people who possess such weapons, either traitors or officials and soldiers.

To deal with these two types of people, to fight alone is to find death.

Under the control of Li Gou'er, the carriage quickly left Lingwu Mountain.

Out of danger, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and Cui Tingcheng even hugged Li Xing and cried.

The sudden hug and crying made Li Xing a little overwhelmed.

I don't know where to put my hands.

Li Gou'er just glanced at it, and said in his heart, young master, this is not good!

When a woman is the most vulnerable, embrace it in your arms, and you have to use gentleness to influence it!

As a scholar, it is necessary for him to help the young master.

The road was relatively bumpy now, and under the moonlight, he found a road with more bumps and drove forward.

This time the bump was more severe, and the guard who was hit by the arrow was almost spurted out by a mouthful of blood.

But now because he lost a little too much blood, he didn't have the strength to speak and scold, so he just glared at Li Gou'er with a resentful look.

"Oops, it hurts me."

Just when it was bumpy, Cui Tingcheng, who was originally holding Li Xing, was turned upside down.

The head hit Li Xing's nose right on.

Li Xing subconsciously let out a cry of pain.

This voice also brought Cui Tingcheng back to reality from the fear of the rest of his life.

She soon reverted to being a strong woman.

Let go of the hand holding Li Xing and sit opposite him.

With the silk handkerchief he carried with him, he wiped the tears in his eyes.

Only then did he bow his head to Li Xing and salute: "Thank you for saving your life, the little woman is out of shape, please forgive me."

"Miss Cui, you don't have to be polite, you have an accident in your official jurisdiction, and it is within your official duty to save you."

Li Xing wanted to ask why they were assassinated, but he was afraid that Cui Qingcheng would be provoked again, so he just said a kind word and stopped talking.

This made the atmosphere in the carriage a little awkward and a little dreary.

Just as the carriage entered the county seat, Cui Tingcheng's words broke the dull atmosphere.

"Master Li, don't you want to ask why we are being hunted down?"

"Oh, why are you being hunted down?"

Li Xing actually wanted to ask for a long time, but he didn't know how to speak, and now that Cui Chengcheng took the initiative to ask, he hurriedly asked.

"Because of profit and power."

Cui Tingcheng's answer was beyond Li Xing's expectations.

"Do you know who the pursuer is?"

Li Xing was interested.

Cui Tingcheng shook his head at first, then nodded.

Li Xing was stunned again, and said in his heart, who did the people in this world learn from, why do they always shake their heads first and then nod their heads when answering questions.

"What do you mean by that?"

There are still some steps that should be taken!

Li Xing asked helplessly.

Cui Qingcheng said unhurriedly: "It's very simple, I don't know who is chasing me, but I know who is behind the scenes."

Li Xing asked, "Who is it?"

"You."

"Me?"

Li Xing's eyes widened, pointed at himself, and asked again.

Cui Tingcheng nodded very seriously.

"It's you."

It seems that he overestimated this girl's ability to bear it.

Now it seems that this girl is frightened.

Li Xing sighed, and said in his heart to avoid her being emotional again, or not stimulating

, don't argue with her anymore.

"Okay, you say yes, and I'll talk about other things when you're well."

"I'm not sick."

When Cui Tingcheng said this, Li Xing felt that he had guessed correctly.

"Hey, Miss Cui, don't get excited, people who are sick say that they are not sick, I understand."

"You...... Then I'm sick."

"If you are sick, you need to be treated."

Li Xing suddenly felt that the ancients were honest and did not deceive me.

The records in the ancient books are indeed correct. Patients with mental problems are indeed fickle.

"Don't be strange, the little woman is not sick, just a temptation, and the time when the adult appeared is not right, so the little woman has to be suspicious."

Miss Cui began to observe Li Xing's every move from the moment she was rescued in the car.

Holding Li Xing and crying is also to test Li Xing's reaction.

Now she has basically determined that it was not Li Xing who planned all this, so she confessed to him.

"Haha, how can the little girl's actions be hidden from Lord Ben, there is no need to apologize."

Li Xing pretended to know everything, laughed dryly, and replied.

It's just that this explanation, coupled with a dry smile, seems a bit redundant no matter how you look at it.

"I see! Your Excellency is indeed wise."

Cui Tingcheng was also shocked by Li Xing's words, and his reaction was obviously slow.

So much so that the embarrassment appeared in the air, and she opened her mouth very stiffly to relieve it.

Who knew that as soon as these words came out, it was even more embarrassing.

Even if Li Xing is thick-skinned, he feels a little embarrassed at this time.

"Ahem."

Li Xing coughed dryly twice and changed the topic to relieve the embarrassment: "What happened? Didn't you transport grain back to Jiangnan? Why are you here, being chased and killed at night?"
