After sending away Xiao Ning'er and the survivors of the Xiao family, Qin Lan actually felt empty in her heart, after all, she talked and laughed with Xiao Ning'er along the way, and experienced difficulties together, and now there is only one person left, which is really a little lonely.

Qin Lan took out the Ruoyang Sword, slashed a few times in the air, vented her slightly lost feelings, let out a long sigh, glanced at the direction Xiao Ning'er left, and then turned her head and walked towards the town.

Qin Lan went to the town to buy a blood-maned horse, bought some dry food, and then quickly rode in the direction of Wangcheng.

Qin Lan rode for three or two hours, passed by a small mountain village, dismounted and walked, and asked the old man sitting under the tree at the entrance of the village.

"Old man! Dare to ask how far this place is from the royal city! ”

"Wangcheng? What are you doing there? ”

"The younger generation has been on the road for a long time to visit relatives, and I don't know how far away it is from this royal city!"

"Visiting family? Don't go! It's full of officers and soldiers now, and if you're unlucky, you're going to be caught by them! There are already several people in our village who have not come back! ”

"Arrest? Why are people arrested? Since when! ”

"How do I know? Those in our village have either gone to buy some household goods or just go shopping, who knows what the reason, and they have not been traitors for months! ”

"Thank you for the reminder, but the juniors must go this time if they have something important, and ask the seniors to show the way!"

Qin Lan saluted the old man, and when the old man saw Qin Lan saluting, he hurriedly got up and saluted back, after all, the people who knew how to salute were all people from the family clan, not something that ordinary people like them could afford to provoke.

"Childe is polite, go down this mountain road, and then one hundred and eighty miles to the northeast, you can see the road of the royal city! Be careful when you go! ”

"Thank you!"

As soon as Qin Lan jumped on the horse, the horsewhip was drawn, and the blood-maned horse rushed out in pain, leaving the old man with a cloud of dust kicked up.

"Most of this posture will be arrested by the government! Eh, the sky has changed in this royal city! ”

On the way, Qin Lan kept recalling the old man's words in his heart, it was normal for the royal city to be heavily guarded, but listening to what the old man said, it seemed that this royal city was sealed, and entry and exit had to be controlled!

Listening to this time, there was no news after my mother arrived in Wangcheng a few months ago, and there was such a change in Wangcheng, it seems that something must have happened in the palace.

Thinking to himself, Qin Lan's hand unconsciously drew the blood-maned horse again, and the horse ran faster after eating pain.

More than an hour later, Qin Lan saw the road of the royal city from a distance, there were few cars and horses on the road, it was by no means the scene that a big city should have, Qin Lan slowed down the speed of his advance.

Far away, Qin Lan jumped off the blood-maned horse and led the horse towards the city gate.

Sure enough, as the old man said, the city gate is guarded, and they must be interrogated when they enter and exit, especially when they go out, whether they are men or women, they have to be searched again, and they don't know how the note that came to them at that time came out under this kind of vigilance!

Qin Lan walked over and lined up behind a few people, in this position, Qin Lan could hear the questions asked by the guards, and at present, it was a question of "why did you come to the royal city", "when did you come", "where did you come from", and "when did you leave".

This made Qin Lan breathe a sigh of relief, and it would be good to make up a few excuses to prevaricate in the past, but it was a coincidence that when there was only one person left before Qin Lan was interrogated, the officer and soldier who was interrogated suddenly changed for some reason.

When I arrived at Qin Lan, the questions I asked were different from before, in addition to the basic information, I also asked Qin Lan:

"What's your name?"

"In Xia Liao Long!"

"You can't bring this on your back, take it down for us, and this horse can't be ridden in, by the way, you said that you are from Liaozhou City, who is the head of the Hu family?"

Qin Lan scolded angrily in her heart:

"This grandson is just on duty and wants to show off himself, right, asked so many unbelievable questions, if the Yang Sword is not brought in, I will not be beheaded? If you get out of trouble, how can you get out of danger, damn it, there is still the head of the Hu family in Liaozhou City? Who knows, I didn't care about these at the time! ”

Just when Qin Lan was still muttering in his heart, the officer and soldier pushed Qin Lan:

"Ask you! The sword is taken down, what is the name of the head of the Hu family?! ”

This push made Qin Lan feel a blow in his heart, Qin Lan leaned back slightly, and slapped his right hand on the buttocks of the blood-maned horse, this palm was practical, and the blood-maned horse's painful front hooves were raised high and neighed.

Several guards in front of them were frightened by the sudden rise of the horse and took a few steps back, and suddenly the blood-maned horse began to gallop, and several guards hurriedly called for someone to catch the blood-maned horse.

At this time, Qin Lan took advantage of the chaos, and beat the officers and soldiers who had just interrogated him upside down and flew out with another palm, this palm Qin Lan did not use spiritual power, otherwise a thousand catties of strength would be slapped away, and the officers and soldiers would definitely have their skin cracked on the spot and die in an explosion.

After the officers and soldiers who were interrogated were sent flying, several people on the side were stunned, Qin Lan's aura was transported to his feet, and he jumped up, jumped directly over the obstacle set up in front of the city gate, and jumped directly into the city gate.

After Qin Lan jumped into the city gate, an officer and soldier reacted and shouted, "Catch him!" Then the officers and soldiers near the city gate gathered in this direction, and someone also fired a signal flare into the sky!

After jumping in, Qin Lan didn't continue to wait for these officers and soldiers, and instantly the aura acted under his feet, and he disappeared in front of the city gate in a few breaths.

No matter how strong a mortal's martial arts were, it was impossible for him to catch up with Qin Lan, and Qin Lan ran for another quarter of an hour, and finally stopped in a hidden alley.

Along the way, Qin Lan ran over and didn't see a little crowd in the market, some of them opened the door, and they were all afraid to close the door after the signal flare exploded in the sky, and some even fled on the street!

Qin Lan looked around, there was no figure or sound of anyone, and then jumped to the wall in front of him, moving quickly along the eaves of the roof.

Qin Lan's aura operated on the soles of his feet, his body was as light as a swallow, and there was no sound on the roof at all, as if the meat pads on the soles of a cat's feet reduced the amount of sound he made.

Qin Lan suddenly saw a courtyard where a girl was drying clothes, and then jumped to the yard, taking advantage of the fact that the girl was covered by clothes and didn't see Qin Lan, she quickly rushed over and covered the girl's mouth.

"Don't be afraid! I won't hurt you! You come into the house with me first, I will only ask you a few words, and it will definitely not hurt you! ”

The girl nodded in fear, and the piece of clothing she was still holding in her hand also fell aside, Qin Lan covered the girl's mouth with one hand behind the girl, and slowly moved towards the house.

After arriving at the house, Qin Lan closed the door with his foot, and then put his hand down!

But who would have thought that as soon as this girl was let go by Qin Lan, she struggled to flee out, and her mouth began to scream!

Qin Lan hurriedly took an arrow step, made a finger sword with her right hand, and quickly clicked twice on the girl's back, and the girl instantly stopped, and her mouth was silent.

Qin Lan walked up to the girl, the girl's movements and facial expressions at this time seemed to have stood still, except for the two eyeballs that were still spinning, and then closed her eyes as if she was begging!

"Don't shout, in Xia Qin Lan, there is something important to do in the royal city, this time I bothered the girl just to ask for a way, because I disturbed the defenders when I just entered the city, which is how offensive to the girl!"

The girl's eyes kept blinking, then looking down hard, and then at Qin Lan, blinking vigorously a few times.

"If you don't shout, I'll let go for you! Don't worry, I won't hurt the girl! ”

The girl's eyes blinked vigorously a few more times, as if to affirm that she had agreed!!

Then, Qin Lan turned his sword and tapped twice on the girl's shoulders downward, but the girl's muscles didn't react and shouted again!

The girl who realized it hurriedly covered her mouth, and then looked at Qin Lan apologetically!
