Chapter 5: To the Imperial Capital (4)
At night, the wind is light.
The dragonfly was sleeping soundly, when suddenly there was a sound of broken porcelain in the corridor, she opened her eyes suddenly, and what she saw was Yun Feng standing next to her bed.
"Huh?! Pervert! The dragonfly pulled out the pillow and threw it at him.
"I'm not ......" Before Yun Bong finished speaking, another thing was thrown over, Yun Bong reached out and took it, and a cool liquid flowed out of it, and then a stench overflowed the entire room.
"This is ......" Yun Feng's face turned red at first, then black. He had never been splashed with such filth since he was a child. Putting down the night pot, it left through the window like a gust of wind.
"Yun Feng?" Dragonfly was stunned, "Why did he come to me at night?" ”
Although they have not been together for a long time, Dragonfly already knows that this person is indeed a gentleman, and there will be no villain behavior.
She quickly got out of bed and put on her shoes, opened the door and saw that there was indeed a broken vase in the corridor, she picked up the fragment and looked at it, and found that there were scratches on it, it seemed that it was swept down by the sword qi during the fight and fell to the ground.
"Sister-in-law, are you alright?" Liu Luo's somewhat anxious voice came from behind him.
The dragonfly turned around, pointed at herself, and looked at him inquiringly.
"You and your senior brother are going to get married sooner or later, and this sister-in-law will also be called sooner or later." Liu Luo said as a matter of course.
"Did the person who lured you away chase you just now?" Dragonfly asked.
"How does my sister-in-law know that I was lured away?" Liu Luo asked curiously.
"The thickness of the sword you use is different, and the sword qi scratches swept out are naturally different." Dragonfly handed the scratched piece of porcelain to Liuluo.
Liu Luo glanced at it, it was indeed Yun Feng's sword.
"Did the man catch him?" Dragonfly pulled the conversation back.
"I caught it, it's not my opponent, I killed myself."
"Killer?" Dragonfly asked.
It seems that only killers have this kind of rule that if they fail to complete the mission, or if they are caught, they will have to commit suicide.
"Dark Guard." Yun Bong walked over.
Liu Luo smelled a foul smell, wrinkled his nose, and asked them, "Do you smell anything?" ”
Yun Feng and Dragonfly exchanged glances, and Dragonfly hurriedly said, "The dark guard you just said, what kind of secret guard?" ”
Yun Feng didn't answer, took out a black cloth from his arms and handed it to Liu Luo.
"It's ...... But no, there's no reason. ”
"Just go back and ask." Yun Bong said.
The dragonfly heard the fog and interrupted them, "What the hell are you talking about?" What is no reason? ”
"Sister-in-law, this is the mark of the Duan family." Liu Luo spread out the black cloth and embroidered an auspicious cloud logo with gold thread.
The dragonfly took the black cloth, looked at the auspicious cloud again and again, and then returned it to Liu Luo.
"Sister-in-law?" Yun Feng glared at Liu Luo.
"It's going to be called in the morning and night." Liu Luo said with a smile.
"Good junior brother." Dragonfly responded with a smile.
Yun Bong looked at the dragonfly incredulously. "Don't you want to marry me?"
"You're the apprentice of the wine fairy, so powerful and so good-looking, I figured it out, this is a big deal." The dragonfly's proud appearance is very similar to a cheap philistine, and it is very eye-catching to see Yunfeng.
"Superficial." Leaving these two words, Yun Bong angrily returned to the room.
"Sister-in-law, I heard you talk about Liuyun Pavilion and Xuehuajiang in the carriage, it turns out that you are the one who captured Fu Xiao and the Songshan horse bandits at a young age." Liu Luo showed a look of adoration.
"You know that, too?" Dragonfly looked him up and down for a while, seeing that he was a son of a family who knew martial arts, and he was also interested in the government's case.
"I also went with Liuyun City back then, and we were guarding outside Liuyun Pavilion, and suddenly saw a raging fire. When I got inside, I saw only a petite and delicate girl, being carried by a catcher by the back of the neck. Later, I learned that the person who caught Fu Xiao was that girl, that is, sister-in-law. Liu Luo talked about this, his face was full of fascination for her.
"Sister-in-law, how did you catch Fu Xiao. I heard from the person who ran in first that Fu Xiao had a color on his body and his hands were still tied. ”
Dragonfly looked at him dumbfounded, and didn't want to brag about him, so he said: "Although Fu Xiao is extremely vicious, he is a person who cherishes poetry and books. ”
On that day, the dragonfly accidentally threw out the candlestick and happened to land on the poetry book beside him, Fu Xiao's face changed greatly, and he gave up chasing and killing the dragonfly, and turned to protect those books. The dragonfly saw him this, and threw a few candlesticks in succession, and Fu Xiao directly used his body to block it.
The dragonfly saw the opportunity to stab him several times, and then he had a chance to tie people up.
"I see." Liu Luo nodded thoughtfully.
"But it's strange that Fu Xiao treats human life as a mustard, but he only loves those dead things."
"yes, a strange man." The dragonfly chimed in.
Seeing that the sky was about to dawn, Liu Luo was embarrassed to keep chasing the dragonfly and chatting, and after a few simple words, they went back to the house to sleep.
From night to dawn, everything is safe.
In the early morning, Dragonfly was woken up by the noise downstairs, rubbing her swollen eyes and feeling her neck ache.
"How can this be more tiring than me chasing prisoners for a day." She couldn't help but complain.
After a day of riding in a carriage and a day of horseback riding, and making trouble for a while at night, it was so tiring.
At this moment, there was a sharp knock at the door.
"Sister-in-law, sister-in-law, are you awake?" Liu Luo's hurried voice came.
"What's the matter, so anxious?" When the dragonfly opened the door, she saw Liu Luo, who was full of sadness and anxious emotions.
"Senior brother is missing!" The news brought by Liu Luo made Dragonfly stunned for a moment, and she asked in surprise, "You say it again, who is missing?" ”
"My brother. Just now I went to him to practice his sword, and I found that his house was in a mess and there were blood stains. It must have been a fight with the person who came to arrest my sister-in-law! Liu Luo said with certainty.
The dragonflies were all scared silly, how could they just come out and meet assassins one after another. Who is the general at this time, so many people come to kill her?
"Sister-in-law, come with me to take a look, before I came, my senior brother praised you and said that you are the youngest and best female catcher in the history of Yin Shang, and you have your own original set of methods to arrest criminals, go and see if you can find any clues."
Hearing what Liu Luo said, Dragonfly felt happy and happy, she didn't expect that the person who was fake and serious and wanted to preach at every turn would appreciate herself so much in private.
"Let's go, take me to see it." Dragonfly said.
As soon as he entered Yun Feng's room, Dragonfly noticed that something was wrong, this room was simply too messy. Tables, chairs, and benches were all cut down, porcelain was shattered, and even windows were torn down.
"You didn't hear anything last night?" The dragonfly tilted its head to look at Liuluo. Liu Luo's martial arts are far higher than his own, and his alertness is also sharper than his own.
"This ......" Liu Luo scratched his head and said embarrassedly, "I slept so hard last night that I didn't hear any movement at all." ”
"I didn't hear anything either." Dragonfly frowned.
"It's tiring to travel, and it's normal for my sister-in-law to go out for the first time, and it's normal for her to be tired and unconscious." Liu Luo explained for her.
"I once chased a prisoner in the mountains for three days, and the next day I slept for only two hours before I went to the yamen to report. It's impossible for me to sleep without knowing anything. With that, the dragonfly picked up the broken porcelain on the ground and looked at it.
Some have fewer scratches, some have more scratches, and there are tables with different shades and thicknesses, which proves that there were at least four people fighting here last night.
So many people, is it just because they want to arrest themselves and are discovered by Yun Feng that they come to fight without him?
The dragonfly carefully inspected the doorway and the window, and found that the marks were very light, proving that the visitor had entered cautiously and did not want to wake the occupants of the house.
This shows at least one thing, the other party's target is Yun Feng, not her dragonfly.
"Sister-in-law, how is it, did you find anything?" Liu Luo asked anxiously.
"Oh...... You said you slept so hard last night that you didn't hear anything? Dragonfly asked him again.
"Yes, maybe my nerves have been too tight these days, and I woke up with some backache." As he spoke, Liu Luo also turned his neck.
"On the rivers and lakes, drugs should be quite popular, right?"
"Sister-in-law is ......" Liu Luo's eyes immediately became serious.
Yun Feng and Liu Luo have both wandered the rivers and lakes, if there is a problem with the food and tea, or if someone pokes open the window paper in the middle of the night and blows smoke into the house, they will definitely find out, so they rule out this possibility.
"Let's go, go down and see what's going on down there." The dragonfly glanced at Liu Luo.
It's not that she doesn't want to continue, it's that the noise underneath is really getting louder and louder, and it gives her a headache to hear.
When the two went down, they found that it was two tall men arguing. After listening for a while, the cause was that one of them bumped into the other while passing by.
"Is it necessary to be so noisy?" Dragonfly complained.
"Childish." Liu Luo echoed.
"What did you kid say?!" One of them turned to glare at Liu Luo, and then walked towards him.
Liu Luo is only sixteen years old, and when he grows up, he is taller than a dragonfly, and his body is thin, and he looks a little weak and impassive.
It's really troublesome, it's early in the morning, and there are few people watching the excitement, so their words are easy to hear. The dragonfly pursed its lips and sighed inwardly.
But......
She immediately looked back at the guest rooms behind her, the doors of each room were closed.
Most people like to join in the fun, and besides, it's still noisy. Why hasn't anyone come out to see it yet?
"Liuluo, I know what the problem is!" After saying that, the dragonfly hurriedly ran upstairs.
"Sister-in-law, wait for me!" Liu Luo said that he was about to chase.
When the big man saw that he was leaving, he thought that he was afraid of himself, so he became more and more proud, and he shot out more recklessly to beat Liu Luo.
"Oops, get out of the way!" With just a slight push, Liu Luo pushed the big man to the door and almost fell out of the inn.
"Oops! Guest: What's wrong? The shopkeeper with the vegetables just came out, saw the big man who fell to the ground, and hurried to help him.
"Sister-in-law, what do you think?" Liu Luo chased all the way to Dragonfly's room.
Seeing that she gave herself a look, Liu Luo understood and immediately closed the door.
