Chapter 273: Who Are You?
In this poor and remote country, there are not many people who can run on horseback.
So everyone looked up in unison.
Seeing a well-dressed man, he rode past them.
Looking at the back of the man leaving, everyone immediately began to gossip again.
"This man doesn't know where it came from, and if he's in business, he shouldn't ride a horse."
"It looks like an official son, he should just be passing by here, otherwise it would be impossible not to find an inn to settle down at this time."
"It's a long way from the town in front of you, and he's not afraid of running into bad guys along the way."
……
Zhu Gaoxuan did not join their gossip team, and stood up at this time and returned to the room.
Originally, because he drank wine, the seventh prince who slept heavily was woken up by him.
The Seventh Prince yawned, "What are you doing?" Why? When are you still not allowed to sleep? ”
Zhu Gaoxuan leaned back in the chair, then picked up a cup of herbal tea and drank it all, "What are you sleeping, something is wrong." ”
What's wrong?
The Seventh Prince instantly lost his sleepiness, "What's wrong?" Are we being discovered? ”
Zhu Gaoxuan shook his head, "I just saw someone passing by outside the inn, and I think it looks very familiar, that person is very likely to be someone next to Zheng He." ”
The Seventh Prince's eyes widened, and he stammered when he spoke, "Zheng, Zheng He, are you talking about Zheng He, the Three Treasure Eunuch in Kyoto?" ”
Zhu Gaoyun put down the tea bowl speechlessly, "Who else is there besides him?" ”
The Seventh Prince's brows furrowed into pimples, "Isn't that why Your Majesty is here too?" But...... Why didn't you go over and check with you at the time? ”
Zhu Gaoxuan shook his head, "There were a lot of people outside at that time, and if I followed directly, it would make people suspicious, so I plan to look in the direction that the person left later!" ”
The Seventh Prince immediately said, "I'll go with you." ”
In the second half of the night, the sky was a little overcast, with no stars and no moon.
It can almost be described as a finger that cannot be seen.
Zhu Gaoxuan took the Seventh Prince and left lightly from the back door of the inn, and then looked in the direction where the man left.
When Zhu Di travels, he either lives in the palace or yamen, or he builds his own tent, and it is impossible to stay in the inn.
So it is only natural that they should look for open areas.
And in this way, they are very likely to become the target of those rogues.
It's just that because Zhu Di is surrounded by masters, there is no need to be afraid of rogues.
The two of them walked all the way, looking around all the way, but they couldn't see the shadow of the person.
The Seventh Prince began to complain, "Are you sure you read carefully?" Your emperor Lao Tzu shouldn't have come out and run around. ”
Zhu Gaoxuan shook his head, "Zheng He's subordinates, I am naturally not impressed, but I just intuitively shouldn't be mistaken......
The Seventh Prince was a little irritable, "If you want me to say that you are mistaken, if it is really them who are coming, we can't find someone for so long." ”
Before they knew it, they had come a few kilometers away.
A little further on, there is another village.
It is absolutely impossible for Zhu Di and others to settle in the village.
Zhu Gaoxuan also retreated, "Then it may be that I made a mistake." Let's go back. ”
Both of them were already a little tired, and the speed of turning back was naturally much slower.
Especially the Seven Kings, "Fourth, I think we'd better go over to Fengyue Nunnery tomorrow night." ”
Zhu Gaoxuan yawned, "Seventh Grandpa, go back to the inn by yourself, it's most suitable for me to go to Fengyue Nunnery at this time." ”
There was still about an hour or two before dawn.
It's barely too late to go to Fengyuean.
The old prince didn't insist this time, "It's okay, but you have to pay attention to safety." If you notice something wrong, run away......"
He didn't go on.
For it was at this moment that he heard a rustling sound in the field by the roadside, as if someone was approaching them.
It seems to be inactive all year round, and the artemisia grass on the roadside is very lush, almost half a person tall.
Under this bleak night, someone lurks inside, and it is not easy to notice.
It's just that this can't be concealed from masters like the Seven Kings and Zhu Gaoxuan.
The two men exchanged glances, but neither moved.
They were all ready to meet the enemy.
After about a quarter of an hour, I saw several figures leap out of the artemisia grass.
They were all dressed in black, with veils over their faces, and swords in their hands, and they didn't look like professionals......
It must be the legendary rogue.
Zhu Gaoxuan smiled slightly, "What should I do?" There seem to be a lot of them. ”
The Seventh Prince looked at him, "And the guys in their hands seem to be quite powerful......"
Zhu Gaoxuan sighed, "Then let's run......"
When the two of them spoke, they tacitly agreed to run away.
The rogue behind finally saw the target, so naturally he would not let them go easily, and chased after them relentlessly.
Zhu Gaoxuan then stopped for a while, dealt with them a few moves, and then continued to run wildly.
They quickly threw the people behind them, and the Seventh Prince was out of breath, "I said the fourth, I really don't understand, how can these people have the courage to be rogues?" Are they just ordinary country men! ”
Zhu Gaoxuan shook his head, "They are simply forced to go to Liangshan with no way out." And there is no intention of killing at all. In the future, I can consider subduing them. ”
The reason why the two of them chose to run was not because they were afraid of those people, but because they didn't want to show their real kung fu and startle the snake.
The Seventh Prince went back to the inn directly to rest, while Zhu Gaoxuan went to Fengyue Nunnery, preparing to see Song Sisi and Yinchai.
At this time, it was almost dawn, but there was still dead silence in Fenggetsu Temple, and almost all the rooms had turned off the lights.
Only near the corner gate in the backyard, there are two houses where the lights are still on, but the lights are dim.
And in one of the rooms, Song Sisi was in a daze under the lamp.
Knowing that Zhu Gaoxuan and others were coming, she guessed that he would definitely come to find her, and it was very likely that it would be tonight.
But she waited left and right, and she waited until now, but she couldn't wait for anyone.
What's going on?
Won't he come?
Song Sisi couldn't hold it anymore, and fell on the table with her head and began to nap.
At this moment, there was a sudden sound of someone knocking on the window outside.
She woke up instantly, and then saw the window being pushed open from the outside, and a figure jumped straight in.
When the window was opened, a cold wind poured in, and the already weak candle flame was directly blown out.
All of a sudden, it went dark.
In the dim light, she couldn't see the other party's face clearly at a glance, but subconsciously shouted, "Is it you?" ”
The other party didn't respond, only snorted coldly.
Song Sisi's heart sank: "Who are you?" ”
