Chapter 027: Assassins
After resting in Xuanduguan for a night, as soon as the sky was bright, Qu Yunchu packed up the treasure chest and hurriedly went out, only telling Ke Yan to take the Lu family to Qujia Village directly.
Walking out of the Taoist temple, a bird's-eye view of the bottom of the mountain on Jiuyun Mountain, there are rolling mountains everywhere, and there is no end in sight.
Raising her eyes again in the direction of Naqujia Village, she frowned.
I saw that the sky was filled with dark clouds, and a ghost's head with blazing eyes appeared in the clouds.
"Oops, the Ghost Head Nebula is a bad omen."
After last night's incident, what she is most worried about now is her mother and Ah Ah, and she pinched her fingers and calculated, Qujia Village is afraid that there will be a bloody disaster in the next few days.
She really wanted to fly to Qujia Village immediately and stay by her mother and Ah A.
Thinking of this, she had an idea, and hurriedly took out the jade flute and played the music according to the ruler notation in her memory.
Sure enough, as soon as the melody came out, the group of paper cranes flew over neatly.
She happily sat on the crane and left.
Hongzhen, who heard the movement, immediately rushed out, looking at the crane that had already flown away, and suddenly felt heartache.
"My crane, my crane."
"Thank you, Master, for the crane."
Qu Yunchu saw the figure of the old man with a bull's nose in the clouds, and waved his hand with a smile with the jade flute.
Hongzhen shook her head helplessly: "This stinky girl is really getting more and more brazen, and I don't know who I learned from her, I gave her a big gift, and she still thinks about my insignificant pets." ”
The Changqing Guan Master on the side rolled his eyes when he heard this, and almost said, "Who else can you learn from besides you, an old immortal?" ”
Since he came to the view for many years, it is just a matter of eating and drinking for nothing, and he has brought a burden into the view, saying that he wants to carry forward the Xuandu view, but it can be seen with the naked eye that the Xuandu view has become more and more declining.
Looking at the distant figure in the clouds, Changqing stroked his long beard with relief.
"Changqing, I talked to you, didn't you hear?"
Hongzhen waited for a long time and didn't wait for a response, and glanced sideways at the Lord.
"Back to Uncle Yunchu, I think Uncle Yunchu is very good."
Changqing bowed and replied cautiously.
If it weren't for Uncle Xiao's skillful hands, how could the Lu family send ten thousand gold incense, which not only gave the whole audience a way to live, but also reshaped the golden body for the ancestor with silver.
Hongzhen knew that he was taking people short and eating people with a soft mouth, and after receiving the merits of the Lu family, his bones softened, and he shook his head angrily while sighing.
"It's really going down."
Fortunately, I didn't receive the 10,000 taels of silver last night, otherwise I wouldn't have allowed Changqing to blow the criminals into the sky.
Changqing is unwilling to be lonely, last night he got this rich merit silver to recast the golden body for the ancestor, he is now growing in confidence, and he wants to restore the glory of Xuanmen in the past.
"Uncle Shi, Your Majesty has a momentum of respecting Xuanmen today, and if you want me to say, I should go to Jialan Temple to welcome back Uncle Shi now, and let Uncle Xiao go to Kyoto more often......"
Before Changqing's tentative words were finished, Hongzhen's sharp eyes swept over:
"What, you also want Yun Chu to spy on the national fortunes for the Great Moon Dynasty?"
Changqing was stunned by his eyes, and lowered his head in fear.
"The bloody lesson of the ancestor is there, and today's court is not as clear as you think."
Hongzhen sighed: "If I want to say that the ancestor was also confused, if it were me, it must be flattered against my will, since I should say that the national fortune of the previous dynasty can last for thousands of years, which will only be five hundred years." ”
"But the monks don't speak."
Changqing answered.
But thinking of Lan Hua's ability, the previous thoughts were much weaker.
Indeed, as Uncle Shi said, at present, all forces are looking for the heirs of the Lanhua lineage, and the thoughts in them are extremely scary.
Although he is in Jiuyun Mountain, he also knows some things about the court, and the current emperor reuses eunuchs and trusts his nurse, which is not a good thing for the national fortune.
"Now that I understand the hard work of my uncle, it's no wonder that you calculated the calamity of your little uncle that day, but you didn't go to remind you."
Changqing smiled thoughtfully: "It turns out that Uncle Shi wants Uncle Xiao to come out of the shell of a golden cicada and completely get rid of the suspicion of the world." ”
"It's a pity that our Lanhua was born with a destiny, and she can't be left alone after all."
Hongzhen half-squinted, and couldn't help but turn his gaze to the direction of Jialan Temple.
……
The sky is getting brighter, but the sun has not yet risen.
Aunt Niu tossed and turned all night last night and never closed her eyes, thinking about yesterday's events, she still couldn't feel at ease.
He searched out the golden ingots left by Uncle Qu Liu from under the bed, stroked them for a long time, and then took out the three rune papers given by Qu Yunchu, and hesitantly got up and walked to his daughter's room.
Seeing that her son was still lying at the head of Xiaoya's bed, her heart was sour and warm.
Now the life and death of the head of the family are uncertain, but fortunately, his son is a sensible child who knows cold and hot.
Last night, Xiaoya missed her father, and her son stayed with her all night here, but he didn't let himself any snacks.
Thinking back to the words of the Shen family's lady, her biggest thought now is to keep the children.
As for that mouth, he himself did such a thing that was unconscionable, and he should have borne the karma himself.
Thinking of this, she stepped forward with relief in her eyes, and was about to pull the bed quilt to cover her son.
But as soon as his hand touched the brocade quilt, he saw a sharp blade in the corner stabbing fiercely.
She lived at this age, where had she seen this battle, and she was dumbfounded.
Two figures of men in black were reflected in the wide eyes.
Seeing that the blade was in sight, the roof of the house collapsed, and the thick cloud of snow and thatch fell straight on the Assassin.
The sound of collapse woke up his son, and he didn't hesitate to pick up Xiaoya, push Aunt Niu and rush outside.
"Crown, my gold."
Aunt Niu reacted and wanted to turn back again.
"When is it, A-Niang is still thinking about this."
Qu Mian pushed his mother and ran out quickly.
Just ran out of the house
"Boom."
With a loud bang, half of the house collapsed.
Aunt Niu only felt a heat in her hands, she looked down and saw that the three rune papers had burned.
She hurriedly threw away the rune paper, and the three rune papers turned into ashes in front of her eyes.
"A-Niang, what's that?"
Qu Mian looked confused.
Aunt Niu looked at the ruined house with tears in her eyes.
"That's your life."
She clasped her hands together and kept repenting, regretting that she shouldn't have treated Shen Niangzi like that yesterday.
Thinking about the thrilling scene just now, if it weren't for these three runes, I'm afraid that I would have been poked out of the hole in my body.
Two children are also ......
Qu Xiaoya was awakened, looked around, touched her sleepy eyes, and asked in a daze: "Auntie, eldest brother, what happened, why did our house collapse?" ”
Smelling the movement here, the villagers also came one after another.
Aunt Niu ran to the side of the inside, touched her tears, and shouted excitedly: "Eighth uncle, hurry, there are assassins under the beam of that room, and if you catch them, you can find the sixth child of my family." ”
Everyone was confused, stunned in place, and didn't know why.
Aunt Niu jumped to her feet and said impatiently:
"Oh, you forgot what Mrs. Lu said yesterday, the sixth child is now being hunted down and killed, these people are not worried that the sixth will do bad things, it must be that they are not looking for the sixth child and are worried that our mother and son also know something and want to kill them, and if you catch the assassin, you will know who wants to harm our Qujia Village."
The villagers suddenly came to their senses, and they all picked up their guys and ran towards the waste.
