When the full moon was in the sky, Xu Bo looked at the night and was silent for a long time, and then called Zhong Lei and Gu Shengchao to his side and said: "This matter is very important, and the darts have to continue to be sent, so we can only act separately." ”

"How?" Zhong Lei asked eagerly.

Xu Bo said resolutely: "Without further ado, you take three fast horses, and along the way, you have to rush back to the worry-free dart bureau without eating or drinking, explain the matter to the old club, and let them contact the officials to try to tide over the difficulties." ”

"Uncle Xu, what about you?" Zhong Lei was not at ease.

Xu Bo smiled bitterly: "The dart still has to be sent, even if you spell my old bones, you can't disgrace the reputation of our dart game." ”

Zhong Lei said helplessly: "Our hearts are not aligned, I'm afraid there are still their internal responses, Uncle Xu should be careful." When he had settled down, he chose three fast horses and hurried back.

Xu Bo led Gu Shengchao to find the masked woman again, and explained: "You two also have to leave quietly while it is dark, I have a map here, just follow the above route, remember not to cause trouble along the way, as long as you arrive safely." He gave Gu Shengchao a small bag of loose silver taels, and advised: "Don't wronged this girl on the road, you must protect her." ”

Gu Shengchao was very moved, he also knew the importance of this woman in the Changqing County Mansion, and Uncle Xu obviously trusted him by handing over such a heavy burden to himself. He said solemnly: "Uncle Xu, rest assured, I will definitely protect this girl and deliver it safely." ”

Xu Bo personally led the two horses, and Gu Shengchao and the woman turned over and got on the horse. He gave Gu Shengchao half a piece of talisman and said: "When you get over there, if the two pieces of talisman can be matched, it will be a deal, you take the silver ticket and come back to pay the difference, this trip guarantees that you will get fifty taels of silver." ”

"Take care." Gu Shengchao bowed his hand to greet Xu Bo, and the masked woman rode into the endless night. He knew that the burden on Xu Bo's body was not light, and the masters sent by Longhu Village and the Criminal Department would definitely target this team again, not to mention who they should not know, this is the biggest hidden danger.

The two of them hurried non-stop overnight, and it was almost dawn, and Gu Shengchao saw that the masked woman was about to be unable to hold on, so he dismounted and rested, and let the horse graze in the grass on the side of the road. The woman sat under the tree and rested against the branches for a while, the red sun was rising, Gu Shengchao woke her up and the two of them continued to walk. After a while, five high-headed horses rushed over and stopped in front of the two of them.

The leader of the man bowed his hand: "The girl is frightened, please go back with us." ”

Gu Shengchaole stepped forward immediately: "You're welcome, what if we don't go back?" ”

The man raised his eyebrows, showed a single knife in his hand, and said disdainfully: "Those who dare to block it, die!" ”

The masked woman was a little timid, and the mount seemed to understand her thoughts, and kept backing away. Gu Shengchao rushed over on his horse, and the five of them, relying on the large number of people, also showed their blades and rushed towards Gu Shengchao. When it was about to stagger, the Gu Shengchao's internal force burst out, and the "Five Souls Array" was unfolded, and five flying swords shot out from the dantian, passed through the chests of the five people, and hung in the air with a "clanging" sound, and then disappeared into the ancient saint chao dantian.

The man at the head had already split half of his single sword, and a large hole had been pierced in his chest, and his hand was out of force, and the single knife fell, and the five horses carried their respective masters towards the distance.

"Plop, plop ......"

From time to time, someone fell down and fell from a horse.

The masked woman was shocked, but she didn't speak, but slowly followed, and the two rode forward silently, neither of them spoke. Gu Shengchao checked the map, confirmed the direction, and followed the route on the map. When it was almost noon, I passed by a town, which was not big and there was only one inn. There was no choice, Gu Shengchao booked a room near the corridor with a back window, and asked the guy to bring the food to the room.

Gu Shengchao closed the door and advised: "Now that we are both fallen people at the end of the world, you don't have to be polite, you didn't sleep all night last night, you have to go to bed after eating, and you have to continue to hurry." ”

The woman raised her head and wanted to ask a question, but she instantly regained her composure, lifted her veil and only exposed her mouth to eat, her red lips were delicate, and her skin was fairer than snow. Gu Shengchao was afraid that the woman would misunderstand, so he buried his head in eating after taking a look. He was a lonely wanderer in his childhood, accustomed to eating and gobbling up, and he was already full when the woman had just begun.

"I'll go to sleep first." Gu Shengchao put on the deadbolt and leaned on the ground behind the door.

The woman immediately knew his intentions, lest someone sneak in and sneak attack, she got up and took the mattress from the bed and handed it to Gu Shengchao: "Wrap it up, be careful of catching a cold." The woman hesitated for a moment and said in a low voice, "Actually, you can sleep in the bed, I won't mind." ”

The woman's voice was soft, tactful with a little girlish shyness, not as confident as Ding Ying, for fear that others would not hear her.

"No, that's fine." Gu Shengchao took the mattress and wrapped it around his body and fell asleep. Because of his special experience, he was more alert when he slept in a daze, and when he heard the woman go to bed, he couldn't fall asleep tossing and turning, and even sighed a few times one after another.

Gu Shengchao didn't know how long he had been asleep, and suddenly heard footsteps outside, and after careful identification, there were four people. Through the crack in the door, it was already dark outside, and there was a light shining through. He got up and came to the bedside, where the woman lay down in her clothes, and he gently woke her up and whispered, "Don't make a sound, come with me." ”

The woman knew that it was an extraordinary time, so she got out of bed and simply straightened her hair. Gu Shengchao pushed open the back window, saw that there was no one around, and waved his hand to signal the woman to come first. The woman came to the window and jumped out lightly with one hand, obviously practicing kung fu. Gu Shengchao had already roughly judged by her aura, so he was not surprised. The two of them went to the stable and led the horses out, and heard someone in the inn exclaiming: "It's not good, they have run away, chase after them." ”

The two of them turned on their horses and galloped away. The moon is bright and the stars are thin, the road is like a layer of white frost, and the horses can see it clearly, galloping all the way.

At about the end of the ugly hour, the mount under the woman's crotch suddenly slowed down, and Gu Shengchao was puzzled, but he saw the woman curled up and kept twitching on the horse, and her breath began to be disordered. This kind of peculiar aura Gu Shengchao has felt, that is, a woman once had it when she sat in the carriage car. He quickly grabbed the reins of the horse and tried to stop it, but when he saw the woman shake it a few times, he was about to fall from the horse.

Gu Shengchao didn't have time to think about it, jumped up from his horse and hugged the woman to the side. Horses are the most humane, and when their owners are not on their backs, they will stop on their own and return to their owners.

The woman's body kept trembling, as if she was afraid of the cold, Gu Shengchao sat aside and hugged the woman in his arms, and took off his outer robe to cover her body. That is, with a cup of tea, the woman gradually regained her composure, even though the veil covered her entire face, Gu Shengchao could feel that she was watching her. Sure enough, the woman said "thank you" and stood up, returned the robe to him, then turned over and said as if nothing had happened, "It's okay, let's go!" ”

Gu Shengchao was dressed neatly and turned on his horse, and the two walked slowly. Gu Shengchao became more and more curious about women, ordinary people couldn't bear it at all, and they wanted to ask a long time ago, but this woman never explained and defended, and never even asked the reason.

The sky was bright, and there was a fork in the road ahead, Gu Shengchao took out the map to take a look, and he should choose the right road to continue walking, and he could reach a town at sunset. But yesterday the other party came suddenly, he had to be on guard, he asked: "May I ask the girl, where you are about to arrive, can anyone else know except the dart game?" ”

"Someone knows." The woman said without hesitation.

"Is it much?" Gu Shengchao asked.

"Not much, no more than five people at first." The woman looked at Chaoxia and said with a wry smile: "Maybe it's increased now!" ”

Gu Shengchao hesitated for a moment and said, "If that's the case, let's take the left road, maybe we can get rid of them." ”

The woman did not object, and turned her horse's head and drove to the left. The woman's ability and decisiveness in doing things made Gu Shengchao admire.

The road on the left was overgrown and obviously inaccessible, and the two of them walked for nearly a whole day without seeing any people, let alone an inn that could provide food and rest. The two men were so hungry that they picked up some water as they passed by a stream, but fortunately it was almost dusk, and there was smoke curling in the distance, and they urged their horses over.

The village is not large, there are only a dozen households, and the sound of horses' hooves attracts the attention of children, who run out to watch. In particular, the masked woman's outfit surprised them even more.

"Who of you here can provide accommodation and food, we have money, and we will not eat your food in vain." Gu Shengchao asked.

One of the little children stood up and asked, "Are you really giving us money?" ”

"Here, where is your family, we can discuss." Gu Shengchao said with a smile.

"Follow me." The child was very bold and led the two to their house.

The yard of this house is not small, but the house is low, and you can touch the roof thatch without standing on tiptoe. However, in this small remote village, such a house is relatively good. The owners of the house are a husband and wife, in their thirties, and the four children in the family are somewhat recognizant when they see outsiders, only the third child, that is, the extrovert who brought them here, surrounded them and asked curious questions.

Gu Shengchao negotiated the price with the male host, took out the money bag, and took out a piece of broken silver from it and gave it to the other party. The man's eyes lit up with the silver in his hand, and he happily prepared according to Gu Shengchao's request. After a while, they picked up a room, cleaned it and let Gu Shengchao and the two of them live in, the food was also brought in, and the hot water was prepared together.

"Go out, and let no one come in without my command." Gu Shengchao commanded.

The man nodded and retreated, Gu Shengchao got up and said, "I'll go to the door first, you wash up, I don't know when the next time will be." ”

"Thank you, Childe." Everyone has a love for beauty, especially this woman, who obviously has a good impression of Gu Shengchao from her words.

Gu Shengchao sat at the door, and waited until the sunset dissipated and night fell, the candles lit up in the house, and the door was opened. The woman said politely: "Son, please come in, the food is about to be cold." ”

"It's okay, I promised Uncle Xu, I want to take care of you on the road, and I should do this." Gu Shengchao was also telling the truth, he was a little worried about Xu Bo and them, but he couldn't reach it, and it was useless to worry about it.

The two finished their meal and got ready to sleep. This time, the ancient saint was unexpected, held a candlestick and put it on the side of the bed, and lay down with the masked woman, although the masked woman was surprised, she also accepted it calmly, and the two slept separately in their clothes. Gu Shengchao blew out the candles, and the room suddenly darkened.
