CHAPTER XXXVIII

Dongfang Shenwei secretly scolded himself for being too arrogant and neglecting such an important detail all the way.

What he should have thought of was that the Murong family's sword was specialized, but Chengjiu was a whip, and no matter how stupid Murong Feng was, he would not use his shortcomings to meet the enemy's strengths.

If the Murong family really came for Dugu Xiaoying, then the hand of the blood shadow had already reached Tianlu Mansion, and if this was investigated, then a bloody purge would be inevitable.

The manor was still silent, and Dongfang Shenwei jumped directly into the courtyard.

The old ox was still napping, its tail flicking around to chase away the flies, and the wooden cart was here.

But there is no trace of Xiaoying.

Dongfang Shenwei's heart slowly sank, looking around, there was no trace of a fight here, he knew Xiaoying's ability, and it was impossible to let the Murong family take it casually.

Just as he was thinking about it, a familiar voice came from behind him: "Uncle Dongfang? ”

Dongfang Shenwei turned around, Xiaoying was standing behind him, the rotten sores on her face were washed by her, revealing her original peerless face, and there were still some water stains left on her forehead, obviously she had just washed her face.

Dongfang Shenwei breathed a sigh of relief, then calmed down and said with a smile: "It's okay if you're fine." ”

Xiaoying was a little dazed by this sentence, and asked, "Uncle, what do you mean by this?" ”

Dongfang Shenwei coughed dryly and said, "You can't continue to stay in that green building, the Murong family may be coming for you." ”

"At me?"

"Not bad."

"Why are they coming at me?"

Dongfang Shenwei sighed: "It is very likely that the Murong family is also under the control of the blood shadow, just in case, you had better stay by my side." ”

Xiaoying bit her lip lightly and shook her head: "If I am with my uncle, I am afraid that I will have to get involved in right and wrong." ”

"You have to listen to me!"

This knife was like a ghost, and the majestic murderous aura blew the sideburns on both sides of Yan Ting, and Yan Ting also stabbed Ling Canglang's heart with a sword at the same time.

At such a close distance, it was impossible for anyone to catch Ling Canglang's knife, Yan Ting naturally understood this truth, and he chose the most dangerous way to stab Ling Canglang before the knife fell.

Yan Ting was undoubtedly gambling, and he won the bet.

The Wave Knife was less than two inches away from his head, and the pear blossom had already stabbed Ling Canglang's heart, and at that moment, the two of them stopped at the same time, staring at each other silently.

Ling Canglang lowered his head and looked at the pear blossom in his heart, raised his head and asked Yan Ting: "Why don't you stab it?" Just go one inch deeper, and my life will be yours. ”

Yan Ting looked up at the knife on his head and said, "You are not the same?" Even if I stab, your knife can still slash me. ”

Ling Canglang suddenly laughed, that smile was a relieved smile in Yan Ting's eyes, he took a step back, Pear Blossom withdrew from his heart with a little blood, put away the knife and walked away without looking back, Oolong Changqing shouted at him on the side: "What are you doing?" Why didn't you kill Yan Ting? ”

Ling Canglang walked to the side of Oolong Changqing, the knife in his hand suddenly slashed at Oolong Changqing, a knife cut his head away, countless blood gushed out, as his head rolled down Yan Ting's feet, this action made Yan Ting very shocked, Ling Canglang looked at the blood on the knife and frowned, tore off the blood-stained robe on his body and wiped it carefully on the knife, and continued to walk into the distance, leaving only Yan Ting with a sentence: "Don't forget to bring his sword." ”

Oolong Changqing's corpse fell, his quenching poison sword was still inserted on the ground, Yan Ting walked over and pulled out the quenching poison, this sword was undoubtedly a divine blade, Yan Ting did not hesitate to throw the sword into the river, and ran down the mountain with Chengjiu wine on his back.

Yan Ting suddenly thought of Mu Qinghong, if he was asked to see this scene, he would definitely scold himself, and then jump into the river to fish out the sword, thinking of this Yan Ting not only smiled, he had decided to go to Baihualou to wait for Mu Qinghong first, and then proceed to the next plan.

At this time, Mu Qinghong had left Dog Mountain with Hai Yichuan on his back, his speed was extremely fast, and he was thinking about the next distance to go, it would take five days to ride a horse from Qizhou to Yanyun ordinary people, although his light skills were fast, but if he didn't eat or drink and carried Hai Yichuan on his back, he would be tired to death when he arrived in Yanyun, and he had to take a carriage halfway, and when he arrived at a post station in Qizhou, he hid Hai Yichuan in an abandoned stable, wanting to steal some silver from passers-by to buy a carriage and buy some food.

He has chosen the target, there are a few seemingly rich and noble sons outside the post station are gathering together, one of the sons on the waist of the jade pendant is worth a hundred taels, he changed his appearance at will, while the son passed by and pretended not to pay attention to touch it, his fingers quickly skimmed over the piece of jade pendant in his hand, and then pretended to be panicked to apologize to the son, the boy brother didn't say anything, waved his hand to signal that he was okay, and after Mu Qinghong left, he whispered to a son on the side: "Second sister, I have a fun place to go." ”

The person known as the second sister asked, "Where to go?" ”

"That man stole my jade pendant just now, should we sneak over and see what he is going to do?"

These people were also interested, and one of the petite young masters couldn't wait: "I dare to steal our things, I'm really impatient!" ”

The son who stole the jade pendant pinched his face and said with a smile: "It's not as good as at home, you are not allowed to come here." ”

The young master kept nodding, shaking his body and muttering: "I know, Fourth Sister, let's go over and take a look." ”

Mu Qinghong played with the jade pendant in his hand, only sighed that the money came too easily, walked into a pawnshop for three hundred taels of silver, went to an inn to buy some beef jerky and wine, just when Xiao Er was serving meat, he attached to Xiao Er's ear and said a few words, gave Xiao Er a few taels of silver, Xiao Er nodded with a smile, Mu Qinghong patted Xiao Er's shoulder and followed him into the backyard.

Outside the door of the inn, the boys just now were staring at the inn carefully, seeing that Mu Qinghong had not yet walked out, the little young master said a little anxiously: "This person won't slip out of the backyard, right?" ”

"There is this possibility, fourth sister, you go to the back door to have a look."

The son who stole the jade pendant nodded, and was about to leave, Mu Qinghong walked out of the inn at this time, holding some beef in his arms while eating and walking, several people followed behind, Mu Qinghong was happy, first went to the tailor shop to buy some precious fabrics, and then went to the rouge shop to buy some rouge gouache, and kept chattering, and went to the flower shop to buy a few bouquets of flowers, and then sat on the side of the street and put the purchased items on the ground to eat beef, these boys looked a little confused, the little young master scratched his head, and asked the son on the side:" Why would he, a big man, buy these things? Could it be that it was bought for his daughter-in-law? ”

The son who stole the jade pendant said helplessly: "I'm afraid we have been discovered, and those things were given to us." After that, he walked to Mu Qinghong's side, Mu Qinghong was gnawing on the taste, and he didn't notice that someone was approaching, Gongzi patted him on the shoulder, and then suddenly turned his head, and Gongzi asked him: "Who told you to buy these things?" Has the man slipped away from behind? ”

This Mu Qinghong nodded, picked up the fabric rouge with a smile and said to the child: "The guest officer did leave from behind, gave me a few taels of silver before leaving, put makeup on me and asked me to buy these things, saying that a few rich ladies would come to me in a while and ask me to give these things to them." ”

Childe nodded and said to him, "You can use these things yourself, those young ladies won't come." After that, he turned around and ran towards the inn, the young master followed behind him, and the little young master scolded while running: "It's so helpless, you dare to play with us, and when you find him, you must beat out all the oil and water in his body." ”

When these sons rushed to the inn, they found that Mu Qinghong was actually in the inn, greeting the guests one by one with a plate full of dishes, and the little young master grabbed him and scolded: "Good you little thief!" actually pretended to be a little two, and watched your head bloom if I didn't beat it! ”

Mu Qinghong was grabbed by the hair, lowered his body and wailed for mercy: "Oh, this young master, what are you doing here?" ”

The son, who was called the second sister, grabbed the little master at this time, and there was anger in his eyes: "We have been completely tricked, and the real thief has been let go by us." ”

The little young master didn't know why, so he stretched out his hand and scratched Mu Qinghong's face to reveal Xiao Er's true face, and was stunned.

And the real Mu Qinghong has hired a carriage at the inn, put him in the carriage with Hai Yichuan and the beef he just bought, and drove the carriage on the road, he still nibbled on the beef in his mouth, and said to Hai Yichuan who was lying on the side: "Those girls just now should not be ordinary rich and noble families, they should have been fried by now." ”

Of course, Hai Yichuan couldn't hear this, and he couldn't respond, Mu Qinghong sighed: "Hai Yichuan, Hai Yichuan, I still miss the cheapness of no one in your eyes before, although it is not liked, it is better than being half-dead now." ”

The coachman skillfully drove the carriage, shouting and whistling in the wind, Mu Qinghong nibbled a few bites of beef, took out the red blood river that Yan Ting handed over to him before from his arms, and played with it carefully, and said to Hai Yichuan: "The last time you and I met, you joked that I was just a snitch and didn't know how to kill, in fact, I didn't move, but I didn't want to kill, but if it was an occasion when I had to kill, my knife would not be slower than you." ”

He got out of the carriage, sat next to the coachman who was catching the car, whistled and asked casually, "Big brother, which way are we going now?" ”

The coachman replied: "Guest officer, you are going to Yanyun, the nearest way is to bypass Heiyun Village and pass through Youzhou and Jinling. ”

Mu Qinghong pinched his chin and nodded: "Well, this is indeed the closest road for ordinary people, but we can't go like this." ”

The coachman said, "Which way do you want to go?" ”

Mu Qinghong said: "We don't go around Heiyun Village, we can pass through it directly, which can save a day." ”

When the coachman heard Mu Qinghong say this, he frowned and asked, "I don't like a person who doesn't know the way when I hear your tone, don't you know that Black Cloud Village can't go?" ”

"You just have to go, there will be no problem."

"Could it be that the guest officer is a person from Heiyun Village?"

"It's not."

"Does the guest officer have any acquaintances in Heiyun Village?"

"Nope."

"Then you can't go."

Mu Qinghong took out a handful of silver taels and gave it to the coachman and asked, "Can you get it like this?" ”

The coachman returned the silver to Mu Qinghong and said, "You just give me a thousand gold, and you can't go to that place, if you insist on going to Heiyun Village, put me down and go by yourself." ”

Mu Qinghong nodded and said, "Then you get out of the car, and you can take the silver." ”

"Phew!"

When the carriage stopped, the coachman jumped out of the carriage and said to Mu Qinghong: "Before leaving, I still have to advise the guest officer, that Black Cloud Village is not only dangerous, but also has countless green forest thieves, you should be careful." ”

Mu Qinghong didn't speak, he threw up the whip and whipped the horse's buttocks, the horse neighed in pain and ran quickly, throwing the coachman far away in the blink of an eye.

What kind of place is Heiyunzhai, of course Mu Qinghong knows, but he must take this path
