"Yuan Hao."

A thin murmur sounded.

Xu Xinyao thought about it, as if she was looking for memories of the name in her memory.

After a while, she looked at Xu Yuan and asked softly:

"Third brother, why has this person Xin Yao never heard of it at the "New Year's Meeting"? ”

There are many branches under the Xiangguo Mansion, and there are many workshops for intelligence, money, rice and grain, and equipment, among which the higher-level stewards have to go to Beijing every three years to report, which was originally once a year, but because some counties are too far away, and the road is also troublesome, after the situation is stable, it is changed to once every three years, and the time for the court officials to enter Beijing is the same.

Some are similar to company annual meetings.

Among these people, many important characters have to come to the Prime Minister's Mansion to meet Xu Yinhe.

When I was a child, I didn't know it, but I just felt lively, but as I grew up, I learned a lot.

After hearing this, Xu Yuan rolled his eyes:

"Father is not ready to let you take over, there are so many people under his hands, how can he let you know everything?"

Xu Xinyao pursed her lips: "Do you know the third brother?" ”

“.” Xu Yuan.

After a moment of silence, Xu Yuan shrugged his shoulders:

"Now I know."

After a pause,

He glanced sideways at Ran Qingmo on the side, and then said unhurriedly:

"But before the Black Scale Guard's people contacted me and said that this Yuan Hao seems to be very dangerous."

"Dangerous?"

"Dangerous?" Xu Xinyao's eyes were puzzled.

Xu Yuan combined the memories of his past life and the information he had previously learned and said in a low voice:

"He likes to kill."

“.”

Xu Xinyao's eyes widened slightly.

Xu Yuan leaned back lightly on the rough cushion in the carriage and said softly:

"In the fifth year, the Xuanqing Sect of Huai'an Zhou united with King Xiang to rebel, and this person followed the Marquis of Zhenxi to quell the rebellion, but as a result, he directly killed all the soldiers who surrendered to him, and cut off his head to make Jingguan."

Xu Xinyao hesitated a little and asked:

"But it's because the soldiers don't have enough food, or it's not easy to control?"

In addition to the general security army, the regular troops of Dayan are all cultivators and martial disciples, regardless of the imperial court or the sect, even if this kind of army is reduced and has no blades, it will roar if it is not careful.

Xu Yuan shook his head: "No, he just likes to kill." ”

Xu Xinyao was silent for a while, and said in a low voice:

"Since he likes killing so much, why don't you arrange for him to go to the Wanxing Mountains?"

"Xin Yao."

Xu Yuan looked at each other's eyes and said word by word:

"Yuan Hao likes to kill people, not other creatures."

“.”

Silent.

Xu Xinyao frowned: "Why?" ”

"How do I know why?"

Xu Yuan shrugged his shoulders: "It's estimated that he's just a pervert, but this pervert's ability to lead soldiers seems to be quite strong, and only his father dares to use this kind of person."

Xu Xinyao didn't speak again.

Seeing this, Xu Yuan didn't say much, raised his hand and knocked on the carriage of the carriage.

The crisp sound of "tuk tuk" fell two breaths, and the wooden window in front of it was opened, followed by a slightly flattering male voice:

"Childe, what do you command?"

Xu Yuan asked directly: "Do you know Pingshui Bay?" ”

This monster carriage was bought in a post station more than 100 miles outside Vientiane City in order to find a rest businessman, in order to hide people's eyes and ears did not buy too good, medium goods, the carriage only set up a closed sound array, the monster beast is just a rabbit-eared horse, this kind of demon horse can not be guided with the soul, so by the way hired a head snake horseman.

The groom was slightly stunned when he heard this, and then said with some hesitation:

"This little old man does know, but."

"But?"

"It's close to the dock over there, there are more three sects and nine streams over there, it's very chaotic, I'm afraid the two girls will be in trouble when they go there, and they have to pay the silver."

Xu Yuan glanced at Ran Qingmo and Xu Xinyao on the other side, and smiled:

"Really? It doesn't matter, you can just drive over and add 30% of your money. ”

“.”

The groom laughed dryly twice, but his voice became more respectful:

"Well, you'll be there later, it's estimated that you'll be there in half an hour."

With that, the groom drove into the avenue where the beast cart was driving beside him, and ran quickly in the direction of the south of the city.

Flat Water Bay.

Coming out of the Bolt Horse Village, Xu Yuan's first reaction when he saw the scenery outside was chaos, which was more than a hundred times more chaotic than the train station he had seen when he was a child in his previous life.

Shouting, scolding, fighting, laughing and laughing are mixed together, and it is extremely noisy,

There was an endless stream of passenger ships and merchant ships, large freight carriages drove out of the harbor and diverted to all parts of the city, some groups of porters squatted on the shore and laughed, merchants, travelers, and hawkers, during which Xu Yuan also saw many children of the sect who were walking with swords.

On the periphery of the pier is a low, densely populated residential area, or slum.

The dense buildings are twisted, the shantytowns and wooden houses are crooked, and there is no such order as the city gate, and at first glance there is no urban zoning.

I walked all the way to the entrance of one of the lanes in the slum, asked for directions, and walked inside.

Xu Yuan felt that this alley was very similar to the chivalrous and murderous alley in the movie, narrow and dark.

As he went deeper, it turned out that Xu Yuan's idea was correct, as some blood stains were occasionally visible in the dirt on both sides of the road.

But think about it, too, in this day and age, a slum that does not evaporate a few people a day is not a slum at all.

Perhaps because of the daytime, the men all went out to work, and occasionally there were only a few women sitting in the doorways on either side of the alley, washing clothes or chatting.

However, most of these ladies seemed to be surprised when they saw the three people with the curtain fence, watching Xu Yuan and the three of them coming, watching Xu Yuan and the three disappear, and then what should they do, the residents here are basically natives, and they grew up in this kind of slum, how could they not have seen some of the market.

After turning a few corners, the alleyway fell completely silent, except for the faint sound of boots stepping on the dirt.

suddenly

"Third brother."

Xu Xinyao suddenly spoke, using a sound transmission.

"Huh?"

Xu Yuan, who was walking in the front, looked sideways slightly: "What?" ”

Xu Xinyao suddenly asked in a low voice for no reason:

"Didn't my father say before that we were only here to negotiate deterrence?"

Xu Yuan said with a smile: "Of course, you also heard it before, my father has no intention of war for the time being. ”

Xu Xinyao said in a low voice:

"But that Yuan Hao has set his destination here."

“.”

Xu Yuan raised his eyebrows.

It seems that these four sisters are really not stupid.

If you want to hide, Yuan Hao will most likely set the location of the noodles in a large area of wilderness outside Vientiane City.

If you want to entertain Xu Yuan, the boss who has parachuted in, not to mention the top restaurant, you have to find a decent inn, right?

Yuan Hao is the person personally recruited by Xu Yinhe, and it is impossible to be a stupid person.

The reason for settling in such a place is also very simple: the more chaotic the place, the easier it is to Tibet.

After a pause, Xu Yuan asked softly:

"You don't think that's right?"

Xu Xinyao was faintly uneasy:

"Third brother, you just said, that Yuan Hao is a madman, hiding soldiers here, I'm afraid there will be chaos."

Xu Yuan nodded:

"Are you worried that he disrespects his father's orders? For the sake of selfish desires, he directly did it to the Vientiane Sect? ”

"Hmm." Xu Xinyao nodded.

Xu Yuan waved his hand:

"It doesn't matter."

"But."

"Okay, even if you don't believe in Yuan Hao, who has never met, you have to believe in our father's vision, right?"

Xu Yuan shook his head and looked at the cramped alleys around him:

"I think this Yuan Hao did nothing wrong.

"Xin Yao

"There is still a big difference between showing the sword to negotiate and putting the sword on the other party's neck to negotiate."

After being quiet for a long time, Xu Xinyao reminded in a low voice:

"But there is a large moat in the city."

Xu Yuan shrugged:

"Don't ask me, I don't know, you can ask Yuan Hao directly later."

"Okay."

didn't speak again, walked all the way, and walked around a corner again, and Xu Yuan and the three of them came to a rather strange alley.

Some women coated with inferior rouge sat at the door, mostly mediocre or even ugly, their linen clothes half-exposed, and their figures varied.

Seeing such a street, Xu Yuan kept walking, but the corners of his eyes jumped unconsciously.

And when these women saw the man, their eyes lit up at the same time, but after seeing the slender figures of the two women who followed behind each other under the veil, they all resumed their previous lazy posture with interest.

Of course, there are also a few people who still work hard to give Xu Yuan a flattering look.

In case people are full of delicacies from the mountains and seas, they want to eat some coarse grain steamed buns.

Silently walking forward,

Ran Qingmo's eyes looked at these scantily clad women with slightly puzzled eyes.

Xu Xinyao's eyes lowered and she didn't look.

Along the way, some of the doors were closed, and some of the closed doors were waiting for a man or two, saying some unelegant jokes.

However, there are no people who don't have long eyes to tease Xu Xinyao and Ran Qingmo with broken mouths, because they are generally children of the sect when they are dressed like this, because if they are killed, there is a high probability that they will be killed, and the loss of a few taels of silver depends on the mood of the other party.

Among them, there was a man who saw the three of them walking away, and he opened his mouth to whisper something, but was stopped by a fellow practitioner on the side:

"The immortal master has pointed ears, if you want to die, you can say it."

The street is very long,

Near the end, the corners of Xu Yuan's eyes jumped uncontrollably again.

He saw a procession, a very long procession, about twenty people, most of them were dressed in cloth, and there were a few low-level martial artists, standing silently without speaking, they should be unfamiliar.

Seeing these people, Xu Yuan glanced at the closed door with a strange expression.

Just thinking about it,

Ran Qingmo pulled the corner of Xu Yuan's clothes:

"Xu Yuan."

Xu Yuan replied softly:

"What's wrong?"

Ran Qingmo looked at the closed door and asked:

"Well, what are they doing here?"

"Don't you have an intentional soul?"

"The master said that when you are walking outside, you can't use your mind to probe others." Ran Qingmo replied clearly.

"He's right." Xu Yuan nodded and retracted his soul: "It's better not to look at this kind of thing." ”

"And you know what they're doing?" Ran Qingmo asked.

Xu Yuan shook his head without hesitation:

"I don't know."

"Poof"

Xu Xinyao on the side laughed.

Xu Yuan glared at her back.

Xu Xinyao pursed her lips.

Ran Qingmo looked at the brother and sister with puzzled eyes.

Xu Yuan coughed lightly:

"Okay, I'll teach you again when I have a chance in the future, forget it now."

Under the curtain, Ran Qingmo's beautiful eyes blinked, and he nodded lightly:

"Okay."

And as the three of them walked by,

In that team, a martial artist silently left the team and followed behind Xu Yuan and the others.

Send, a little cardinal
