Chapter 5 The rivers and lakes are sinister

The sky was dark, the breeze tore through the clouds, and a bright moon appeared over the town.

At the top of a three-story restaurant outside Lingyue Alley, Pei Xiangjun was dressed in night clothes, lying on the ridge of the roof, carefully paying attention to the movement between the buildings, and two spears wrapped in black cloth were placed beside him.

The big fluffy birds crouched next to them, bouncing back and forth on the premises, keeping an eye on the inside and outside so that they could rush to each other's aid in time if something went wrong.

It's been an hour since the Night Terror Hall entered, and judging from the signal of the bird, everything is normal, and it is no surprise that it is waiting for someone.

Pei Xiangjun knew that he had found the right place, and Lingyue Tower was in contact with the hidden King Wu, and his spirit was highly concentrated, paying attention to the wind and grass around him.

After paying attention for most of the day, I finally noticed that there was movement outside the town, and by the moonlight, I could see that on the official road outside the town, there was a fast horse galloping.

She took out her binoculars and looked out of the town, where she could see that a man in a robe was sitting right away, and when he arrived outside the town, he flew up without dismounting, and his body was like a wandering eagle, passing through the jagged houses at an astonishing speed, aiming directly at the Moon Alley.

When Pei Xiangjun saw this scene, he knew that King Wu had taken the bait and sent someone to negotiate; As long as King Wu's cronies come forward, the birds can follow the vines.

Pei Xiangjun moved his vision to the rear, wanting to see how many people King Wu had arranged to come over, but when he looked at it, he found that something was wrong.

I saw a man in a robe, just jumped into the town, and a black shadow flashed between the mountains outside the town, keeping a distance of half a mile and tailing, judging from the distance and position, it was obviously tracking, and was not discovered by the man in the robe.

When Pei Xiangjun saw this scene, he couldn't help but be suspicious - the man in the robe came galloping on horseback, and the person following him behind was on foot.

Pei Xiangjun secretly observed the movements of the two people in front of him, and soon found that the man in the robe landed near Lingyue Lane, negotiated with the people of Lingyue Tower, and quickly entered the building complex.

The black shadow that followed behind fell silently on the house, and touched in the direction of the Huang family's mansion.

But as soon as the shadow approached the confines of Alley, he paused abruptly, then looked up, turned his gaze to her, and pulled out a long cylinder from his waist to look at where she was.

!!

When Pei Xiangjun saw this scene, he was shocked into a cold sweat, because he was hiding well in his night clothes, without any movement, and even his breathing was already stagnant.

But the black shadow in the distance, apparently still found that there was someone watching on the roof here, just after a glance, he quickly put away the binoculars, turned around and galloped out of the town, the speed was extremely fast, but the fingers disappeared in an instant.

Pei Xiangjun was a little dazed in addition to being frightened, he didn't dare to be careless, and carefully observed the direction in which the black shadow disappeared.

As a result, after waiting for half an hour, he didn't wait for the black shadow to go and return, but found a white-clothed ghost that appeared on the path where the black shadow came.

Dressed in a snow-colored dress and a hat, the figure looks ethereal like a fairy, and the leisurely stroll seems to merge with heaven and earth, and even the robe flutters with the rhythm of blending into the environment.

The woman in white walked in a very special way, almost stepping on the position where the black shadow had just passed, walking not far away, and stopping to look, it should be checking the footprints, and after tracking the position where the black shadow had stopped, the woman in white also stopped.

Pei Xiangjun secretly said that it was not good, and pressed down from the roof in advance to avoid being discovered again.

But the woman in white was obviously unfathomable in martial arts, and she didn't dare to lose her vision for too long, and after a while, she raised her head and continued to observe.

As she expected, the woman in white had followed the direction of the black shadow's escape and gradually disappeared from view.

Pei Xiangjun was inexplicable, and from these clues, he could roughly deduce the general situation - there was a master with extraordinary light skills, who was secretly tracking King Wu for some purpose; And the unfathomable woman in white tracked the master of light skills in the rear.

Based on these alone, it is obviously impossible to distinguish whether these two people belong to the forces and whether they are friends or foes.

Pei Xiangjun thought for a moment, and could only secretly sigh that the situation in Wuzhou was indeed chaotic, and continued to observe the surrounding trends......

——

The sky was dark, and the lights were already lit up in the main hall in the depths of Lingyue Alley.

After the initial negotiation, Huang Yulong didn't say much because he would lose too many words, but just sat and waited by the tea case.

Luo Ning sat on the chair and rubbed the teacup gently, because she was wearing a veil, so she naturally didn't drink it.

The Night Terror Hall stood behind his back, and the master guard was full of energy, and he didn't even shake his hat from beginning to end.

After waiting for nearly an hour, there was finally movement outside the hall.

Luo Ning turned his eyes and saw a middle-aged man in a robe walking in, holding a folding fan in his hand, tapping it in his palm, his posture was quite elegant and calm, and he bowed after entering the door:

"In Xia Bai Siming, I have heard the name of Mrs. Xue for a long time, and it is really extraordinary when I see it today."

Luo Ning pretended to be a 'life-saving straw', and he would definitely not be polite to Corporal Xian, his posture was very sufficient, he didn't get up, he just raised his hand:

"Lord Bai, please be seated. Is King Wu okay recently? ”

Bai Siming sat down opposite Huang Yulong, and he actually had some doubts in his heart; Huang Yulong, who was next to him, knew that Bai Siming was worried that the other party was a person who was pretending to be a person from the Pingtian Sect, and said:

"Don't worry, Lord Bai, I went to Tiannan two years ago, and I was fortunate to meet Mrs. Xue once; The identity can be pretended, but the demeanor of this 'No. 1 beauty in the rivers and lakes' can't be pretended. ”

Seeing this, Bai Siming didn't ask any more, and said with a smile:

"King Wu is all right, he is negotiating with Yanzhou, and he will leave soon. If Mrs. Xue had come over slowly, she might not have seen Bai. ”

Luo Ning understood the meaning of these words-King Wu does not lack your way, it is the Pingtianjiao who is asking King Wu, not the Pingtianjiao asking for help from the Pingtianjiao-she gently rubbed the rim of the cup with the lid of the cup, and responded flatly:

"King Yan holds the Yanzhou Army in his hands, he wants money, money, and people, and there is no shortage of King Wu's family business.

"If King Wu brings the abolished emperor over, King Yan may consider conspiring with the world; And without the abolition of the emperor, King Wu is probably nothing in the eyes of King Yan.

"At this time, Lord Bai said that King Yan is ready to take the risk of being suspicious of the court and take the rebellious ministers and thieves to Yanzhou, what is King Yan trying to do? And King Wu's brotherhood? ”

Bai Siming slapped his palm with a folding fan and said with a smile:

"Mrs. Xue underestimated King Wu's background too much. In recent years, King Wu has recruited strange people and researched a secret medicine that can double the energy of ordinary people. As long as there are enough of them, they can create an elite soldier with one enemy and five in a short time, and King Yan is very interested in this thing. ”

When Night Terror heard this, his heart moved, and he interjected:

"If King Wu had this kind of medicine, why did he end up like this?"

Because he may deal with other capacities in the future, Night Terror deliberately suppressed his voice, sounding a little hoarse.

Hearing this, Bai Siming looked at the Night Terror Hall and frowned:

"Who is this?"

"My protector of the Heavenly Sect."

Luo Ning's eyes were flat, and he followed the words of the Night Terror Hall:

"His words are not unreasonable, if there is this medicine, why is King Wu here?"

Bai Siming sighed softly: "The medicine has just been made, and the effect of the medicine is still being tested, and the matter was revealed in advance, which led to the current situation." Bai's empty words have no evidence, and it is normal for Mrs. Xue not to believe it, in order to corroborate, Bai showed Mrs. Xue something. ”

Bai Siming said, taking out a box the size of a rouge box from his sleeve, and when he opened it, it contained silver powder:

"This is Snow Lake San, the effect is similar to that of Snow Lake Flower, and it has the divine effect of continuing the meridian and protecting the veins. The value of the Snow Lake Flower should not need to be introduced by Bai, this alone is worth the risk you have to take in the Heavenly Sect. And the accumulation of the prince is far more than that, all of them are what you urgently need for the restoration of the Pingtian Sect......"

Seeing that the other party directly took out his main target, Night Terror asked quietly:

"Lord Bai is sure that this thing can be compared to the Snow Lake Flower?"

"There is a gap in the strength of the medicine, but if you take it for a long time, it is the same as the effect of Snow Lake Flower."

Bai Siming said, looking at Huang Yulong:

"Go find a drug tester with damaged qi veins."

Huang Yulong raised his hand slightly, and Xiao Shichen, the second master, walked out of the main hall quickly.

Within a moment, there was a noise outside the door.

Bang

The sound of chains rubbing.

Night Terror Hall turned his eyes to look, but saw Xiao Shichen holding the chain with one hand and dragging a man in.

The man was covered in bruises, unkempt, and unkempt, and his whole body was bound by iron chains, and his mouth was gagged.

Seeing this, Night Terror couldn't help but frown secretly.

"Woo-"

The man was dragged into the main hall and knelt on the ground, looking around, his eyes full of fear.

Bai Siming got up and came to him, pulled out the burlap that was gaged, and prepared to feed the medicine.

Night Terror Hall knew the news that King Wu had made medicine to eat dead people, and after thinking about it, he still asked:

"Even if there is no injury, the snow lake flower can also nourish the meridians and protect the veins. Isn't there still a hidden danger in this drug, so it can only be taken by the person who tested it? ”

Bai Si ordered it simply, poured out some snow lake powder, and threw it directly into his mouth:

"It's a three-point poison, you can't eat too much, but a small amount of it is beneficial and harmless."

Night Terror Hall nodded slightly, and after Bai Si ordered the snow lake to be scattered into the man's mouth, he pressed the man's shoulder with his hand to check the condition of the qi veins, and waited for only a quarter of an hour, and found that the damaged qi veins were stabilizing and showing signs of slight improvement.

Bai Siming stood beside him, his eyes full of pride:

"This medicine can cure the incurable terminal diseases in the past, and it is a unique healing miracle medicine for the people of the rivers and lakes. I wonder if Mrs. Xue and Your Excellency are interested? ”

Night Terror Hall was sure that there was a substitute for Snow Lake Flowers, and I was relieved a lot. Since there is a finished product, then as long as you get the formula, the errand assigned by Yuhu can be completed.

But how to get it is a big question.

Directly ask for the formula, the intention is too obvious, and the other party can't give it now, once the other party detects the motive, you have to beat the chicken.

Now that he has seen the cronies around King Wu, he can completely follow the vine to find out King Wu's hiding place, and let the birds and birds follow him secretly, and the probability of success is obviously higher.

Night Terror thought secretly, put away his hand, and nodded:

"This medicine is indeed a divine artifact. My wife and I came over, and the specific way to pick up King Wu to Tiannan has been arranged on the way, Mr. Bai can go back first to restore his life, if King Wu is willing to do things for my Pingtianjiao in the future, I can take him at any time.

"But Mr. Bai had better give an answer as soon as possible, a large number of people in the imperial court are coming, and there are already a lot of people who are good at tracking today, and if you delay for an hour, you will have less chance of leaving."

Bai Siming naturally knew that the longer it dragged on, the faster he would die, and seeing that the Pingtian Sect was so happy, he wanted to turn back immediately and discuss the escape with King Wu.

But before Bai Siming could raise his hand to say goodbye, there was a noise and the sound of gongs and drums at the edge of the town in the distance:

Bell Bell Bell –

The chirping of birds was also heard in the sky:

"W-w-"

The Night Terror Hall understands the bird's secret signal - the army is pressing!

Bai Siming, Huang Yulong and the others obviously understood the signal of the town's sentry, and knew that the brigade of soldiers and horses had been killed, and their faces changed suddenly.

Smack-

Huang Yulong slammed the teacup, wanting to glare at Night Terror Hall and Luo Ning angrily.

But what I didn't expect was that the Night Terror Hall, who was standing in the middle of the main hall, was even more excited than them, turned his head first, and said angrily:

"You dare to point to my Pingtian Sect?!"

“……”

Huang Yulong opened his mouth and forced back the words in unison.

After all, he confirmed that the woman in front of him was the goddess of the Toad Palace, the remnant of the previous dynasty who had insisted on rebelling for sixty years and did not change her original intention, which was much darker than their group of white gloves.

Isn't it said that the Pingtian Sect notified the officers and soldiers to come over and serve them in a pot, and this is not harmful to others and themselves?

But it is even more impossible for them to call the officers and soldiers to come over to encircle and suppress them, as soon as the two of them from the Pingtian Sect arrived, the officers and soldiers arrived on their hind feet, even if it was not the Pingtian Sect to report the news, it may be that the Pingtian Sect attracted the officers and soldiers.

Bai Siming's faces were constantly changing, and there was obviously wariness and hostility in their eyes.

The Night Terror Hall can't figure out how the government killed it, and the gangsters talk about cooperation in this situation, and there is a high probability that the matter will be yellow.

Fortunately, he didn't want to cooperate at all, he was sure that there was a substitute for Snow Lake Flowers, and then he only needed to bite the three people in front of him, and if he could be captured alive, he would be tortured to extract confessions, and if he couldn't catch it, he would try to follow him.

However, now that the fight starts, it is too risky to be surrounded by the entire Lingyue Building, so I still have to withdraw from Lingyue Lane to join Sanniang.

Night Terror Hall was still pretending to be a thief of the Pingtian Sect at the moment, holding the hilt of the knife and saying:

"There is fraud here, Madame, go away!"

Luo Ning was not slow to react at all, quickly retreated outside the door, and said angrily:

"Without my Pingtian Sect, I'll see how you can escape!"

King Wu was already desperate, Bai Siming was immediately anxious when he heard this, and he didn't want to give up the only two life-saving straws in front of him.

But apart from the two people who came to the door, he couldn't think of anyone else who could leak the news and let the government come to copy the lair of the Yuelou.

Bai Siming hesitated for a moment, gritted his teeth and said, "Something went wrong today, and this matter will be discussed later." The two of them are precious, and they have to get out first, and they don't send them. ”

The Night Terror Hall glared at the three of them, cautiously exited the main hall, and then flew up and jumped onto the premises.

The officers and soldiers had already been killed outside the town, Bai Siming and the others did not dare to slack off, and immediately asked Huang Yulong and the others to quickly pack up their things and prepare to escape.

And at the same moment, above a mountain outside Baisu Town.

Lu Feng, who was wearing a hat, stood on the top of the mountain, looking at the light horses galloping from the official road, and a sarcasm flashed in his eyes.

"The Pingtian Sect also wants to snatch food in the hands of King Yan, hum ......"

Seeing that the people in the town began to scatter and flee, Lu Feng snorted lightly, turned around and disappeared into the night......
