Chapter 15: Accidental Discovery

The sky was white, the lights were lit up in the station of the Winter Hades, and the early risers opened their stalls on the street.

And in the tent at the back, the bird who woke up, a little hungry, landed at the head of the bed, and looked condescendingly at the night terrors:

"Boom?"

On the bed, the eyelashes of the night terror moved, and the first time I was awake, I felt refreshed, and the tiredness of the long journey was all dispelled, and it was probably the first time I slept so comfortably in half a month.

Night Terror exhaled softly, opened his eyes, and saw Bird's round head upside down, hooked the corners of his mouth and smiled, raising his hand to gently remove the arms on his body......

Well??

How can I have an arm on me?!

Night Terror Hall woke up instantly, and remembered a little - yesterday I sat on the bed with Xuanji Zhenren and sleepwalked in the fantasyland, and finally lay down to look at the stars, and then ......

Then it is not clear when I fell asleep......

No way......

The night terror hall secretly said that it was not good, the face with excellent complexion was visible to the naked eye, and the afterglow was often looked at beside it, and the first thing that caught the eye was the woman's fair and traceless stunning cheeks, and the long jet-black hair was tied up with a headband, and it was leaning on the same pillow two feet away, and the distance that could be kissed by bowing her head slightly.

Although her appearance and temperament are impeccable, the woman's sleeping appearance is not very elegant, and the whole person is lying on the bed, with her right hand and across his chest, and a small sundial in her hand.

Night Terror's body stiffened slightly, and he quietly looked down - Xuanji Zhenren was wearing a white dress, although it was a little wrinkled, but it was very complete, and there was nothing spring-like.

And he was wearing his clothes, and it looked like nothing had happened last night, just sleeping in the same bed all night.

"Whew...... It scared the hell out of me......"

Seeing this, Night Terror Hall was relieved, seeing that Xuanji Zhenren had not woken up yet, he was afraid of causing unnecessary misunderstandings, so he wanted to quietly touch the hand on his chest and remove it.

But before he could make a move, he found Fairy Lu who was close at hand, and slowly opened his eyes:

"Hmm~......"

The night terror hall secretly said that it was not good, afraid of being beaten to death by the girl, so he reacted very quickly, quickly pushed away Xuanji Zhenren's arm and sat up, touched his body, and then turned his eyes to look at Xuanji Zhenren, his eyes were shocked and suspicious, looking like a 'humiliated young man'.

??

Xuanji Zhenren slept as comfortably as the Night Terror Hall, and when he first woke up, his mind was blank, and he suddenly found that the Night Terror Hall was sleeping in front of him, and he was naturally startled.

But she didn't have time to reprimand, "Dengzi, what did you do to me?" I saw the eyes of the wicked person in the night terror hall who sued first, and couldn't help but be stunned.

The two looked at each other, and Xuanji Zhenren quickly recalled what happened last night, and then sat up slowly, looked left and right, and raised his hand to straighten out the crumpled skirt:

"What do you think of me in this way? I didn't do anything to you to accidentally fall asleep......"

Seeing that Xuanji Zhenren didn't trouble him, Night Terror Hall secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, made a serious appearance, and touched his clothes again:

"It scared me to death, I thought it was ...... How do you sleep on my bed? ”

Xuanji Zhenren was actually shocked, but she didn't show it because of her strong mind, she secretly perceived, and after confirming that she was still a yellow flower girl, her eyes signaled to the messy floor that was arched by birds:

"Where is your bed, what do you mean me to sleep in your bed? When I'm asleep, you can't go back and lie down on your own, you have to huddle with me? ”

"I don't even know when I fell asleep, you said that martial arts are higher than me, why don't you remind me?"

After the Night Terror Hall responded, he didn't dare to talk nonsense about this matter, turned around and hugged the bird and got up:

"It's getting up, I'm going to wash up first."

Xuanji Zhenren nodded slightly, and when the night terror hall slipped out of the tent, his expression was a little weird, he first raised his hand and rubbed his forehead, then looked back at the bed that was crumpled by the two of them, and muttered softly:

"What kind of medicine is this......

……

——

There are too many merchants coming and going in Langxuan City, dragons and snakes are mixed, and the Night Terror Hall wants to turn the Queen Mother and King Jing upside down, so it is natural to find out the situation in the city in advance, so as not to know nothing about the risks when people arrive, which will lead to something wrong.

After having breakfast at the Winter Hades Station, before Fan Qinghe could find out the clues of the imprisoned dragon miasma, the Night Terror Hall and Xuanji Zhenren became a street runner again.

Langxuan City not only gathered people from various departments in the West Sea, but also the forces of the Northern and Southern Dynasties. Night Terror Hall walked around the city for a long time, and found traces of many chambers of commerce and gangs in Liangzhou.

Among them, the Hongshan Gang has the largest station, with nearly 100 gangs, and the stalls sell Liangzhou native products, but the main business is to negotiate long-term cooperation with the heads of various ministries, and transport grain, salt and iron to various ministries through smuggling business routes.

Due to the urgent shortage of these necessities in the Xihai tribes, the Hongshan Gang and other forces engaged in smuggling business have a very high status in Langxuan City, and the elders of all tribes basically come to the door with generous gifts to beg for business.

As the commander of the black government, the smuggling business still has to be investigated, but the investigation of smuggling outside the customs is interference in the internal affairs of other countries, and the Great Wei is not domineering to this extent, so he is just on the side to find out, record the information of gang members, inquire about the source of smuggled goods, etc., so as to trace the source after returning to the customs.

Xuanji Zhenren's talent for martial arts cultivation is amazing, but after ten years of investigation, he has not found the whereabouts of Minglong Tu, which shows the strength of his ability to handle cases.

The two of them walked around from morning to afternoon this time, basically figuring out what big forces there are in the city and which masters may exist.

After a day of shopping, the bird was a little tired, and he wanted to eat a roast leg of mutton, so he sat down at the roast mutton stall on the side of the street, and was ready to have a meal with Xuanji Zhenren before returning to the station.

But while the two were eating at the stall, the sound of horse bells came from far away from the street, accompanied by a commotion:

"Let's ......"

"With so many goods, whose caravan is this?"

"It seems to be the ...... of the Liangzhou Black Flag Gang"

……

Hearing this, Night Terror put down his chopsticks and turned back to check on the street, and it could be seen that the caravan of more than 100 people of the Black Flag Gang was coming this way.

Because he smashed a cart, there was naturally one less carriage in the convoy; The foul-mouthed monk who was beaten up, riding on a horse in a monk's robe, didn't seem to be in a very good mood.

Hu Yanjing, who was hanging a horse chopping knife on the side of the horse, looked the same as his dead father, and occasionally looked left and right when he walked through the crowd, looking for the traces of the young master of the Chi Division.

And Dongfang Shangqing, the youngest son of King Liang, may also be the first time to come to Langxuan City, so he left the carriage at this time and rode among the guards to watch the street scene.

Seeing that Hu Yanjing had arrived, the Night Terror Hall whispered to Xuanji Zhenren about the Deserted Bone Beach, and then secretly followed the convoy together......

——

Langxuan City is full of foreign merchants, so naturally it is indispensable to settle down, but because the assembly only lasted for more than three months, the number of houses was very small, and the inns were all temporary small tents.

At the same time as the caravan of the Black Flag Gang entered the city, seven or eight men sat in a tent near the big red tent on the outside of the city, with a temporary topographical map on the small table in the middle, and a few weapons next to it.

Cao Aning held a brush in his hand, pointed at the map of the city, and said:

"I just went to see it, most of the people on patrol were transferred, this place is a warehouse, sparsely populated, Dongfang Shangqing lives near the warehouse......"

Xu Tianying and several old secret guards gathered around the table, listening to the battle plan for the night.

And Tang Yudan stood at the door of the tent, opened the curtain, and looked at the big tent full of warblers and swallows in the distance.

waited until the words of several people were over, Tang Yudan turned around and interjected:

"That is, into the rivers and lakes, life and death for the frontier, we are now wandering outside, and we don't know when we will die on the road, if we die without children and daughters, it is unfilial to say. This Yao Ji Department borrowed seeds here, the girl in it is beautiful, not to mention, pregnant and don't need a man to raise, although she doesn't have a man's surname, and she can't go to find a son, but she can leave some incense, if you want me to come and see, it's better to ......"

Tang Yudan was talking, and suddenly found that the tent was quiet, and five or six people were frowning and staring at him, so he stopped talking stupidly.

Xu Tianying's face was displeased, and he wanted to remind his junior brother, "The male secret guards are all eunuchs, and they have all been sterilized a long time ago, what kind of seed do you keep?" ”。

However, when it comes to saying this, it will really make Cao Aning and others have a headache, Xu Tianying thought about it and just said:

"The tiger father has no dogs, and the men in the Yaoji Department are all doing odd jobs as laborers, and they don't look down on themselves, how can I let my children and grandchildren become untouchables? If you are afraid of death and have no queen, you can find a place to live in seclusion and live an ordinary life, and no one will stop you. ”

Tang Yudan was scolded by his senior brother, and he also realized that most of the eunuchs in the tent were eunuchs, so he came to divert the topic:

"Just kidding, let's get down to business."

Cao Aning has been in the palace since he can remember, but he looks at these very lightly, and continues to sketch on the paper with a brush:

"I discussed with Hu Yanjing in advance, and he would let Zhang Xuanye take people to eat and drink at night. Dongfang Shangqing has more than a dozen palace guards around him, he has a good foundation, but he is not an opponent such as me, after finding an opportunity, don't really hurt Dongfang Shangqing, just scare. When the time comes, he will stab Zhang Xuanye, the technique must be accurate, it is best to splash Dongfang Shangqing's blood, but don't hurt the vital point, otherwise don't want to do things under the hands of King Zuoxian......"

Xu Tianying is a native of the rivers and lakes, seeing that this master took refuge in King Yan and ended up dying in the capital, he was actually a little resistant to clinging to the powerful, and thought about it:

"Except for King Zuoxian, there is no other way out for us?"

Cao Aning paused for a moment and thought about it slightly:

"There are also green bandits, but the green bandits are too mysterious to know what they want, and if you join them, you can only follow orders, and maybe you will be treated as an outcast that day. I have been running in the Xihai Zhubu for many years, and I know the way, if Zuo Xianwang can't climb it, let's go find it. ”

Xu Tianying nodded and said no more......

——

Time flies into the night.

Not far from the station of the Winter Underworld, in the camp where more than 100 horses were parked, the sound of silk and bamboo came from the central tent, and several black-clothed palace guards and warriors from the Wuma Department patrolled back and forth around the big tent.

Relying on the method of passing the body, the Night Terror Hall touched the vicinity of the big tent from the shadows, hid behind a stable, and listened attentively to the movement in the tent:

"The fact that Young Master Shang Qing can come over in person really gives me enough face from the Ministry of Witches and Horses, but every year I send a hundred white-maned horses to the palace, the number is too large, even if I can take it, it is not easy for the Northern Liang Court to explain; In the terms of trade between the two dynasties, only ordinary horses were allowed to be bought and sold, and white-maned horses were the best choice for war horses......"

"Patriarch Wu is a little too underestimated Liang Wangfu, my father has 30,000 cavalry under his command, and a hundred horses can't even make a splash when they throw it in. These horses, I want to send them to Yun'an, the princes and nobles over there like rare objects, and the rarer the breed of horses, the higher the price......"

……

Xuanji Zhenren leaned on the side of the Night Terror Hall, and after listening carefully for a long time, he spoke:

"It sounds like Dongfang Shangqing is really here to talk about business."

From the afternoon of the Night Terror Hall to the present, he has followed Dongfang Shangqing to the stations of several tribes, and they are indeed talking about business, and he didn't feel that Dongfang Shangqing had any problems, so he responded:

It seems that Hu Yanjing is indeed deceiving his superiors and subordinates and smuggling scale steel without permission. I don't know if he called the seller here, but I'll go over and ask when he's alone. ”

After the two waited for a while, Dongfang Shangqing came out of the big tent, left the station with the guards, and boarded the carriage at the gate, while Hu Yanjing served as a guard next to the carriage.

Seeing this, Night Terror Hall quietly came to the street and followed from the shadows, wanting to wait for Hu Yanjing to return to the place where he stayed, and then a Hades came to the door to ask about the situation.

As a result, after following the convoy for a while, the afterglow of the Night Terror Hall suddenly moved, and he found someone in the extreme distance looking in the direction of the convoy.

Xuanji Zhenren also sensed it, and raised his eyes to look into the distance, only to see a row of warehouses over there.

A large number of merchants came from Langxuan City, such as dried furs, herbs and other things, which were easily damp when placed at will, so they must be stored in the warehouse built in advance by the Gou Chen Department.

The two touched that side today, and the warehouse is near a place to buy porcelain, so that area is also called a porcelain building, and a lot of houses have been built for wealthy merchants to settle down, because the whole city is a tent more than one person high, and standing above the warehouse is a view of the mountains.

At this time, I looked carefully through the afterglow of the lights, and I could vaguely see the outline of a figure, holding a long tube in his hand, looking at Dongfang Shangqing's convoy, from the sneaky demeanor, it didn't look like a guard of the palace, but more like a person who was following and watching.

Seeing this, Xuanji Zhenren was a little puzzled and asked:

"Is this a horse bandit stepping on a point?"

Judging from the experience of walking darts for many years, the Night Terror Hall is indeed quite similar, but Langxuan City is a place where the Xihai tribes trade abroad, and if something happens to scare away the merchants, it is a loss for the Xihai tribes, so even the tribal hooks that are feuding with each other can coexist peacefully here, and the horse bandits come here to make trouble, so it is estimated that they don't want to get out of Langxuan City alive.

"I don't know, let's go over and see the situation first."

Seeing that the caravan was moving slowly, Night Terror did not follow it anymore, allowing the bird to rise into the air to reconnoiter the situation, and together with Xuanji Zhenren, he walked through the noisy market like two ghosts to the place where the figure was......
