This time, Cui Qingcheng did not hide it, and told the story of what happened under Lingwu Mountain in 1510.

It turned out that the third room of the Cui family saw the hope of rising because of the fine salt.

In order to occupy more market share in a short period of time.

Cui Chengcheng's grandfather even raised a large amount of grain in a short period of time, so that their brothers and sisters could come to the northwest as soon as possible in exchange for a large amount of fine salt.

It was safe all the way, except for a few small thieves who didn't have long eyes, there were no accidents.

When they arrived at the Lingwu Realm, they thought about entering the city early tomorrow morning, so they hurried overnight today.

But he didn't expect to encounter an ambush at the foot of Lingwu Mountain.

His brother and his food were all taken away.

If she hadn't seen that the situation was not good, she immediately decided to let the guards protect her and leave early, and now she would probably have become a prisoner.

After listening to Li Xing's story, he carefully considered that it was extremely likely that the mountain bandits would commit the crime.

But when I think that the other party has a crossbow, it doesn't make sense.

Is there a detail that has been overlooked?

Thinking of this, Li Xing asked Cui Tingcheng again: "Miss Cui, the person who blocked the road and robbed didn't speak?" What did you say?"

"I muttered a lot of words, and I didn't understand a single one."

Cui Tingcheng finished speaking.

Li Xing suddenly thought of something, and he wanted to slap himself.

He overlooked one thing.

This is not modern society, but ancient.

In ancient times, only the family, the nobles and those scholars knew the official language.

He was able to communicate with the people he came into contact with without barriers, and that was because he had traveled the rivers and lakes and knew many local dialects.

And those ordinary people or people who occupy the mountains and kings, most of them are from poor backgrounds, and generally only speak the dialect of their hometown.

"Can you learn two sentences?"

Li Xing asked, but Cui Tingcheng shook his head: "I can only learn the dialect and official dialect of Jiangnan Province, not learning."

Li Xing looked at the guard who was not moving and was weak.

"Brother Guard, can you learn?"

"Master Li, little ...... Small ones too...... Nor will it."

The guard's voice was discontinuous at this time, as if he couldn't catch his breath.

It can be seen how weak he is at this time.

There was no way, Li Xing could only give full play to his expertise and speak several different dialects in the northwest in a row.

"Is there a similar one?"

Both shook their heads almost at the same time, "No."

"This ...... Could it be that thieves from other places have wandered to Lingwu?"

Thinking of this, Li Xing couldn't help frowning.

At the same time, there was a little more worry in my heart.

The anti-thief is an outlaw who even the imperial court dares to rebel.

Most of them have already lost their families, so they can't see the good of others.

If they see the thriving scene of Lingwu County, they will think of their own homes and relatives.

That would be an absolute disaster for the people of Lingwu.

"If it's a thief, my brother won't be killed by them, right?"

When Cui Tingcheng heard Li Xing's speculation, he couldn't help but feel nervous.

Although his brother is not successful, and sometimes he makes her angry, but after all, he is his own brother, and if he is really killed by the thief, she will also be sad for a day.

"This is not good, if there is a grudge with the Cui family, your brother will die, if you come to the county, then your brother's life will not be in danger for the time being, so you still pray to the gods to bless your brother!"

Li Xing replied perfunctorily.

Then he said to Li Gou'er, "Dog, speed up."

"Yes, young master."

Li Gou'er responded.

As soon as the whip sounded, the horses neighed in pain.

The speed of the carriage also increased in an instant.

The arrow guard lying on the carriage was directly bumped, and then fell heavily.

This time it may have fallen a little hard, or this person's patience reached the limit, in short, after falling, he fainted.

Cui Tingcheng was also upset, but she was relatively calm.

Even the guard fainted, she just glanced at it, and she didn't look like some women in costume dramas, went to the guard, shook and asked, what's wrong with you.

"Aren't you afraid he's dead?"

Cui Qingcheng's every move naturally did not escape Li Xing's eyes.

He asked with some curiosity.

Cui Tingcheng was stunned for a moment by this question.

But soon Cui Tingcheng returned to normal, and she said unhurriedly: "The little girl is not Langzhong, how about not being afraid? What if you're afraid? It can't change the final result, if he dies unfortunately, all the little woman can do is to bury him and treat his family after she escapes."

"Huh?"

Li Xing found that Cui Tingcheng's words were powerless for him to refute, which made sense.

It's just that this also made Li Xing see the other side of Cui Tingcheng, that is, reason, absolute reason, like an emotionless robot.

At this moment, Li Xing was a little skeptical that something was wrong with the system.

How could such a sane woman become his red face?

It's absolutely impossible.

"My lord, if you have anything to say, you might as well say it directly, the little girl won't mind."

Seeing that Li Xing snorted, he stopped talking.

Cui Tingcheng thought that she was different from the world's inertial thoughts, which shocked Li Xing, so he reminded him loudly.

When Li Xing was asked by her, he came back to his senses and smiled awkwardly, and said, "It's nothing, I just think what you said makes sense."

Awkward conversations, the end result is social death.

So on the way back to Yamen, Li Xing and Cui Tingcheng had no extra words to exchange except for a glance at each other.

After getting out of the car, Li Xing took the initiative to talk to Cui Tingcheng: "Miss Cui, there is chaos outside, the official asked you to clean up a room in the back hall of the county government, you will live first, and when the official comes out of your brother, you will go to the guest house."

On the way back to the county office, Cui Tingcheng has been thinking about where the safest place is.

But after counting it carefully, I found that it was still the county government that was the safest.

is thinking about how to find an excuse with Li Xing to stay in the county office.

But she didn't expect Li Xing to ask her first, which made her hang heart put down.

Very politely made a woman's salute to Li Xing: "Everything is subject to the arrangement of the adults."

Cui Qingcheng agreed, and Li Xing breathed a sigh of relief.

looked at Li Gou'er and said, "Dog, arrange the carriage and horses and the injured escort brothers in a while, and go and invite the chief catcher and the second master to come over, saying that the young master has something important to discuss with them."

"Yes, young master, the dog will do it."

Li Gou'er hurriedly gave up.

Then he drove the carriage and took the injured to the county stables.

Li Xing took Cui Tingcheng to the back hall and found her a decent room.

and let the twin sisters help Cui Tingcheng tidy up.

The twin sisters had seen Cui Tingcheng before, so this time it didn't feel strange.

Helping to clean up the room, the three of them are already like sisters.

Of course, Li Xing didn't know about this.

After all, in ancient times, men and women were not kissed, and he wanted to avoid suspicion.

After handing over Cui Tingcheng to the two sisters, he went to the flower hall and waited for Jiang Hong's and Ouyang Xiong's arrival.

That is, after almost half a pillar of incense, Jiang Hong and Ouyang Xiong came together.

Behind them, there was Li Gou'er holding a guard in one hand.

Seeing the guard, the corners of Li Xing's eyes twitched uncontrollably.
