Chapter 381 - Confrontation in the Alley
He Ji looked at the woman's frightened look, the killing intent in her eyes had subsided a little, and her eagle eyes swept over the woman's beautiful face and her cute appearance, and her heart was itching, and she had fled for many days, where had she seen such a woman.
The Adam's apple turned, He Ji swallowed his saliva, looked at the woman's body, and the evil thoughts in his heart had risen, and he couldn't help but gradually approach the woman... But when she got close to the woman, she thought of the lion and tiger beast and her father's advice before death, and lost interest in an instant.
When a man is not confused by beauty, he will often be more rational, take three steps back, and look at the woman again, this woman is so beautiful, her skin is delicate, she is not like the people of the Northland, because of the perennial wind and looks shriveled and wrinkled, just like an ordinary Yanbei City woman, immediately the heart is vigilant again, after thinking for a moment, he spoke in a deep voice.
"You mean... You want to go home?" He Ji seemed to have found some flaws in the woman's words, and as soon as he opened his mouth, the true qi withdrawn from his palm condensed again.
Murong Wei saw the eagle-eyed one-armed man in front of him, under his own flattery, he was gradually lost in his mind, and he still despised him, and secretly said that the young man looked too highly on this person, but he didn't expect that this man had returned to normal after only a moment, but he asked himself about his casual nonsense.
Under the dark passage, his face still pretended to be frightened, stumbled, and replied, "Slave... The slave family is going to... When I go home, I hope that the good man will spare the life of the slave family."
I wanted to take the woman's life to prevent future troubles, but I thought that the Yanbei City had been sealed, and if the officials and soldiers were attracted after taking the woman's life, it would be difficult to get out, and it might attract the whole city to search for them.
"Don't worry, girl, you're not a villain... It's just that this Yanbei is closed down, and it doesn't look very peaceful, if the girl doesn't like it, let the girl go home in the next place, how about it?" Although He Ji opened his mouth as a proposal, he had an unquestionable tone, as long as the girl refused or made a move, he was afraid that he would immediately kill the woman and his subordinates.
The killing intent in He Jiying's eyes was seen by Murong Yu, and without thinking about it, she knew her tentative intent, hesitated slightly, pretended to be worried, and said, "Really... Really, that... The slave family thanked the heroes."
If this woman opened her mouth without thinking, but it was abnormal, this kind of worry made He Ji's heart a little less guarded, and he said in a slightly slower tone: "Where is home?"
Murong Wei's eyes moved slightly, knowing that there was no room for maneuver at the moment, so she hurriedly got up, looking at her clothes with "distress" in her eyes, as if she was sorry for her clothes covered with mud, but in fact, she was looking down for a moment, and her eyes kept sweeping towards the people at the end of the alley.
Under the lockdown, almost every household is closed, Murong Wei dusted her body, her mind was spinning quickly to deal with it, and after a while, her eyes lit up slightly, and she finally saw the person she was looking for in the alley.
Raising his head, he pointed to the one-armed man with gloomy eyes and said to the end of the alley: "The slave's home is at the end of the alley, a good man... If you really want to send it to the slave's family, then..."
Before the words fell, he saw the one-armed man's eagle eyes narrowing slightly, Murong Wei didn't know if he had made a mistake in his words, stopped his tone, and asked tremblingly, "How... What's the matter, man."
A sneer suddenly appeared on the one-armed man's face, and his eagle eyes showed fierceness, and he said on the side, "It's okay, since it's not far away, then I'll accompany the girl into the house and leave."
Murong Wei knew that there was no other way at the moment, and the one-armed man was determined to probe his bottom, so he had to bite the bullet, turn around, walk in front, and go towards the house he chose.
The end of the alley was not far away, and He Ji behind him followed Murong Wei with an imperceptible cruel smile on the corner of his mouth, and looked at the woman in front of him swaying... The tea kung fu is already close to the house.
Murong Wei walked slowly in front, but her eyes were locked on the one-armed man behind her along the way, although she pretended to be vain and didn't know martial arts, in fact, the true qi in the dantian was already sufficient, and she was on guard at any time, beware of the man behind her suddenly making a move.
Seeing that the wooden door of the house was already in front of her, Murong Wei used her internal force to raise her charm to the top, no matter who opened the door, whether it was a man or a woman, she had to firmly charm it as quickly as possible... This is the method that Jiang Ningxue thought of.
The eyes are slight
Moving slightly, Yu Guang saw that the one-armed man behind him did not speak, so he had to bite the bullet, raised his hand, and knocked on the wooden door.
He Ji behind him watched the woman knock on the door with great interest, never spoke, and had no intention of leaving, and there was even a little bit of playfulness in those eagle eyes.
"Daddy, brother, open the door quickly, the girl is back." Murong Wei knocked softly on the door and performed the whole play, but after knocking for a long time, no one opened the door, and she breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, Murong Wei pretended to sigh slightly, turned to look at the one-armed man behind her, and said with a smile.
"Let the heroes laugh, Xu is going out early in the morning to make a living, and there is no one at home, so it's better to... The heroes go first, let the slave family wait here for a while..."
Before the words fell, he heard the wooden door behind him "creak" and slowly opened.
Murong Yu hadn't spoken yet, but she saw the one-armed man in front of her with that playful smile, and said behind him with a smile: "This little girl, say this is hers..."
The word "home" has not yet been exported, Murong Wei has already moved, and she has calculated everything, but she didn't expect that what she picked was the place where this one-armed man was hiding, no wonder when he pointed to this house, the playful smile on the corner of his mouth turned out to be the clown who jumped off the beam.
There is no doubt for a moment, the vertical palm is a knife, Murong Wei turned around and slashed, in Shicai Alley, she had seen the internal force emanating from the one-armed man's body, and she thought that she was not completely sure that she would take down the one-armed man in an instant, since there was someone behind her, it was better to try to take down the person behind her, or she could get out.
Murong Wei's palm is really sharp, He Ji saw through the woman's plan for a moment, he had expected her to have martial arts, but he didn't expect her martial arts to be so high, this move turned his palm into a knife, thinking that even if his right arm was still there, he couldn't be defeated, but this woman was smart, but she chose the wrong person.
Sure enough, when He Ji's mind was undecided, Murong Fu's soft and charming posture was like a heavy blow, and she was repelled by a move from the door...
——
"Distinguished customer, you see, this deer antler velvet is red and brown in color, light in the hand, hard and brittle, it is the best grade, shop! Store! How much silver." Wu Chang, who led Gu Xiao to choose deer antler velvet in the street shop, looked at the deer antler velvet in the young man's hand, thinking that the young man had taken a fancy to this deer antler, and was busy asking the store for the price.
Gu Xiao's mind was on these deer antlers, just by looking at the antlers, his eyes were locked on the alley, wanting to see Murong Yu's figure walking out of the alley after detecting He Ji's whereabouts, how could Murong Yu be like Murong Yu had been in the alley for half an hour, and there was no movement at the alley, which made Gu Xiao not worried.
The lockdown of the city, so that the business in the store was already a lot of deserted, the deer antler boss leisurely in the back hall of the store poured himself a drink, handed over the shop to the guy to take care of, heard that there was a guest to the door, hurriedly with a smiling face, drilled out of the back hall, saw that it was a soldier wearing armor in the army, the smile on his face was even bigger, and he stepped forward.
"Today is really a distinguished guest to the door, the little old man is blind, he didn't go to the door to greet the two military masters, I hope you will forgive me."
The relationship between the military and the people in Yanbei has always been harmonious, and the commander of the army was not arrogant, but responded politely: "The shopkeeper, this is our general's distinguished guest, come to choose one or two today, you have high-quality deer antler in your store, don't use these inferior goods to fool people."
"The military master is serious, the little one opens the door to do business, how dare he be shoddy, these are all high-grade deer antler velvets, isn't this because the city is closed? Therefore, there is some floating dust, don't worry, if my deer antler velvet is a shoddy product, you don't have to arrest me, I will surrender myself." The shopkeeper hurriedly explained.
After many years of business, I saw at a glance the young man holding the antler velvet, who seemed to be contemplative, and his eyes kept glancing at the "distinguished guest".
Gu Xiao was recalled by the conversation between Chief Wu and the shopkeeper, knowing that he couldn't let Chief Wu see the clues, and when he turned around, he opened his mouth to take the shopkeeper's words.
"Since the shopkeeper said it, I naturally believe that your deer antler velvet is indeed of the highest quality, and it just so happens that I have been out for many days and want to buy some, and when I go home, I will give it to the elders in the family."
"The little military master is indeed a filial person, when he goes out, he buys some special products to honor his elders, so I will choose one for the little military master?" It was rare for the shopkeeper to have a business come to his door, so he hurriedly complimented him and wanted to leave this business.
Gu Xiao didn't say anything more, only nodded slightly, there was still a shopkeeper to help him choose the goods, and he glanced at the entrance of Shicai Alley intentionally or unintentionally.
Wu Chang's eyes swept over the young man vigilantly, seeing that he was not
In a hurry, he looked at the shopkeeper to select deer antler velvet, and relaxed a little, but he still didn't see the person who was traveling with the young man, which still made Wu Chang a little flustered in his heart, and after looking at it for a while, he finally couldn't hold it back, and wanted to step forward and ask again, but at the moment of speaking, he was blocked by the young man's mouth.
"Brother Tai, it just so happens that I'm not from Yanbei, you can help me take a look, how about the deer antler that the shopkeeper picked for me?"
When it came to his mouth, he was blocked by the young man's mouth and swallowed, and Wu Chang couldn't speak, so he had to pick up the deer antler velvet handed by the young man to take a look at it and deal with it.
After grinding like this for more than half an hour, Gu Xiao saw that there was still no movement at the entrance of the alley, worried that Murong Wei had made a mistake, and even more worried that He Ji had seen the clues, so he wanted to get rid of this Wu Chang and go into the alley to investigate. Just as he was thinking about how to speak, he heard Wu Chang open his mouth first.
"It seems that the distinguished guest is not very interested in this Yanbei specialty, why don't I lead the distinguished guest to this antiquities business, which is also one of our Yanbei specialties."
Gu Xiao knew that this Wu Chang was thinking, and what he could do now was to stabilize him and not let him be suspicious, so he immediately smiled and said, "That's right, then it's better to be respectful than to obey your orders... It's just that I'm worried that my companion won't find me when he returns... Why don't you..."
"Don't worry, the antiquities store is not far from this street, let's go around, I will tell this shopkeeper again, if the guest returns, just let him wait here." Wu Chang seemed to see the thoughts of the distinguished guest, and immediately replied.
"It's okay, then I'll have to worry about the Lord leading the way." The young man thought for a while, and when he heard Wu Chang bluntly say that he was unwilling to be far away, he put his mind at ease and responded happily, but in fact, he was already secretly thinking in his heart, how to find an opportunity to get rid of this person, and go to the alley to investigate.
It has been agreed, it is still Wu Chang who leads the way, and Gu Xiao follows him, turning a few street corners, and finally entering a secluded alley in Yanbei City.
There are not many pedestrians on the streets, let alone this secluded alley with few pedestrians, although the sun is high, but the alley is so quiet that even the watchdogs who love to bask in the sun are not seen today.
Only the sound of two people walking on the snow and the hooves of the horses in their hands hitting the ground resounded in this empty and secluded alley.
After walking for a short time, the captain Wu who was leading the way in front stopped, looked up at the antique signboard, looked back at the young man behind him and said, "Distinguished guest, we have arrived."
Gu Xiao was still thinking about Murong Yu and He Ji all the way, and when he heard Wu Chang speak, he came back to his senses and looked up at the signboard above his head.
The three big characters of "Tongguxuan" are vigorous and powerful.
