"How far away are they from us, why don't we abandon the car and run away!" Ye Ningxiang was breathing, and her words clearly revealed a trace of uneasiness.

"No, Childe has lost his mind now, Miss Xiaoqin doesn't know martial arts, get out of the carriage, we are more passive, you hurry up and put some loess on your face, change into tattered clothes, and then wrap the red cloth I gave you on your arm, if they think of us as ordinary people, it won't be too difficult. ”

Gu Liancheng said this, and Ye Ningxiang also took the two people in the carriage to do so, although he was still afraid that he would be forced to a dead end like when he was chased and killed by King Yu before, but he also believed in his heart that the strength of the actual head of the Shadow Guard should not be too bad, and it would be more than enough to deal with a few anti-thieves.

Here, Ye Ningxiang's nervous mood had been adjusted properly, but Gu Liancheng outside the car was so nervous that he was in a cold sweat, not that he questioned his own ability, but that he was too afraid of any mistakes if he mishandled it.

He is not a person as talented and intelligent as Mu Xize, and he can achieve today's achievements all thanks to the teachings of Mu Xize and Mu Xize's master Qin Mingyue, for the problems he has dealt with, he can handle them well without hesitation, and for the problems he has never encountered, he is afraid that he will have to spend more brains.

And it was precisely this mediocre man who had never encountered such a situation as to protect someone from leaving unharmed from hundreds of sergeants, and the unexpected situation that might happen was even more unpredictable. Just because he is a bit rigid in doing things, and he doesn't know how to be flexible, can he keep these people safe? Gu Liancheng was also puzzled in his heart, and he had no bottom.

If only his master, Mu Xize, could be sane and behave normally at this time, he would not be as tormented as he is now, and even a little overwhelmed.

Gu Liancheng sighed deeply, and continued to pat the horse's hips with more force, and the horse let out a long roar and sped up and walked forward.

"Huh--" Gu Liancheng shouted, and then tightened the reins as much as possible, the horse raised its front legs, and it took a lot of effort to stop, and the strong inertia caused the people in the car to almost be ejected out of the car.

Dragging her dizzy head, Ye Ningxiang asked with difficulty, "What's wrong, what's wrong?"

Before Gu Liancheng could answer, Ye Ningxiang heard the sound of horses' hooves coming from outside the carriage, and then the well-trained people got off the horse, and said angrily: "Where are you from, and what is the purpose of going to the Shuozhou boundary?"

Ye Ningxiang was shocked, and her mind had already outlined that their group was surrounded by thousands of troops and horses, and their hearts, which had been slightly relaxed, were once again twisted into a ball. She raised her hand and looked at the red ribbon that Gu Liancheng had ordered to carry on her arm before, and said with a solemn face: "Now, I'm afraid our vitality is pinned on this ribbon." ”

Gu Liancheng looked at the rebel leader and showed a bright smile, but he always showed his respect for the leader from the hair to the nails, "Our brothers and sisters are going to Shuozhou Province to kiss each other, this is not to make a lot of money in the capital and prepare to return to their hometown to honor their parents!"

Hearing Gu Liancheng open his mouth, Ye Ningxiang was so shocked that her jaw almost didn't drop, because Gu Liancheng's accent was completely like a different person, as if he was an authentic Shuozhou person talking to the leader again.

"Pull the curtain open for me!"

The ringleader's roar frightened Mu Xize straight behind Ye Ningxiang, with his peach blossom eyes wide open, looking timidly ahead.

The moment the curtain of the car was raised, Ye Ningxiang saw how many soldiers had gathered outside the car, it was simply countless! The cavalry was in front, the infantry was behind, and there was a black and oppressive figure in the distance, and there was no end in sight, and there were many more people than the time when King Yu of Linzhou chased and killed. These people, like Ye Ningxiang and them, have a red ribbon tied around their arms, showing their belief in Duanwang's sworn allegiance.

Ye Ningxiang's hands broke out in cold sweat, and she was beating a drum in her heart, but she still protected everyone tightly behind her, for fear that these rebels would suddenly make some outrageous moves.

The rebel boy took a closer look at the clothes of Ye Ningxiang and the others, and found that each of them had red ribbons wrapped around their arms, and their faces showed satisfaction.

While the man was looking at Ye Ningxiang and the others, Gu Liancheng deliberately glanced at Ye Ningxiang, Ye Ningxiang immediately understood, and took out a wooden box from under the saddle, which contained all the money they had prepared for their trip.

"The general has fought hard all the way, these silver coins are a little bit of my brother and sister and I, and I hope you will accept it, lead our army to attack Jing'an as soon as possible, and drive the faint monarch out of power!"

"Anything else?" said the leader with a wicked grin.

This wooden box of gold, silver and jewelry is enough for an ordinary person to live a lifetime, and he even wants to ask her for money!

"Yes, yes! ”

Gu Liancheng smiled, took out a dozen thin pieces of paper covered with red seals from his arms, presented them to the man with both hands, and continued: "This is the silver money we have in Fuheng Qianzhuang, a total of three thousand taels, all of which should be filial piety to you, General." ”

After receiving Gu Liancheng's silver ticket, the leader showed a look of satisfaction on his face, and then said: "I see that you all have red ribbons wrapped in your hands, and I think you are also the ones who support our Duanwang, for the sake of us all having a common master, I advise you to leave Shuozhou quickly, don't rush here, and save the people who meet the Dog Emperor from being killed by them." ”

"Yes, yes, what the general said, let's leave. ”

After speaking, Gu Liancheng turned the head of the car and walked in the direction they came. And the thief who defrauded them of a lot of money was happily looking at the large amount of silver tickets in his hand and the big wooden box at his feet, dancing and getting carried away.

"No one is following, is it?"

Ye Ningxiang cautiously poked her head out and asked.

"Nope. But we can't enter Shuozhou City tonight, and we will look for another opportunity tomorrow. ”

On this day, they traveled more than 100 miles in the opposite direction of Shuozhou according to the instructions of the traitors, and then found a hidden place and dismounted from the carriage for the night.

After a whole day, she can enter the boundary of Shuozhou, and she doesn't know what this important military town that has been besieged by Mu Jinghong for a long time has become, will the person she is looking for still wait for her in Shuozhou? Ye Ningxiang's heart was full of worries about the future.

At dawn on the second day, Gu Liancheng didn't dare to take the road anymore, and deliberately introduced the carriage into the dense forest in the mountains. The carriage was bumpy and the wheels were covered with thick dirt, and although it was a difficult journey, they never encountered a rebel with a red ribbon again.

Not long after walking out of the dense forest, Ye Ningxiang saw a quaint and magnificent city in front of her. The gates of the city are closed, and the slaughter and desolation are interpreted to the extreme.

When she got closer, Ye Ningxiang saw that there were dozens of guards guarding the closed city gate. The guards stood tall and mighty, with spears in their hands, and a kind of majesty and inviolability surged around them.

Ye Ningxiang was unconsciously surprised in her heart, and secretly admired Lin Shicheng's ability to lead the troops, sure enough, the soldiers under General Lin had a unique temperament in the world, and no one could replace it.

"Who's coming?"

One of the guards stood in front of him with a spear and snapped.

"The four of us brothers and sisters are here to come to Shuozhou Province, and I hope that the military master will open the door and let them go!"

"Now that there is war here, the general has ordered no one to enter the city, so please go back!"

As he spoke, several soldiers had already stepped forward, threatening to drive them away immediately. When he arrived at his own territory of influence, Gu Liancheng no longer flinched, and in the blink of an eye, he snatched the long knife of one of them, and then pointed the long knife at the neck of the other person.

The guards didn't expect that these few people who looked like ordinary people would have such outstanding martial arts, and their faces suddenly showed panic, and two of them had even quietly retreated to the city to move the soldiers.

"We're not wicked, we're not rebels, we're just trying to go into the city to find an old man. ”

As he spoke, the closed city gate slowly opened, and a group of black-pressed soldiers swarmed from the city, instantly surrounding Ye Ningxiang and the others.

"Dare to rebel against the thief, dare to go to the gate of the city to spread wild!"

The person who spoke was about thirty-five or sixteen years old, and Ye Ningxiang looked like he had seen it somewhere before. Trying to recall it in her mind for a moment, Ye Ningxiang finally remembered that this person was the officer who led hundreds of soldiers to help Mu Xize break into the palace when she disguised herself as a shadow guard and followed Mu Xize into the palace that day.

After saying this, the man was also stunned, and did not order his subordinates to move towards Ye Ningxiang and them, but fell to his knees with a very heartbroken look.

"Wang Duo didn't know that His Highness was here, and he was offended, and he hoped to forgive his sins. ”

The soldiers who were ready to meet the battle looked at their lord and suddenly became like this, and for a moment you look at me, I look at you, put down their weapons with puzzled expressions, and knelt on the ground.

Expecting that this person who claimed to be Wang Duo recognized his former loyal master Mu Xize, Ye Ningxiang hurriedly smiled and helped up Wang Duo, who was kneeling on the ground, and said: "General Wang, please get up quickly, King Ning is here secretly this time, and I hope that the general will act in a low-key manner, don't let more people know about this matter!"

Wang Duo immediately understood, turned around, and said coldly: "You should have not seen anything about today's events, and you are not allowed to leak a single word to the outside world, and those who violate the military law will be dealt with!"

The soldiers kneeling behind them said in unison, "No." ”

Mu Xize was still hiding behind Ye Ningxiang, and he didn't remember that there was once a general named Wang Duo who was determined to die and led hundreds of soldiers to enter the palace with him, and those who had created brilliance by him, those who once regarded him as a believer, were all forgotten by him in a corner where they could no longer be found.

The soldiers beside the Shuozhou City Gate politely moved out of the way, lowered their heads, bowed their bodies, and let Ye Ningxiang and his party enter the city.

Obviously, it was still the middle of summer, but the moment Ye Ningxiang entered the city, she unconsciously felt cold all over her body, and her heart was also a little cool.

No one can be found on the once bustling streets, and the sound of the wind blowing through the plaques of the shops on both sides of the street hisses and makes people panic.

In the hidden place on the street corner, you can occasionally see a few pairs of thieves staring at Ye Ningxiang cautiously and cautiously, as if they are suspicious and even afraid of these people who are still indifferently wandering on the street when they are in great danger and life and death.

"Station, we can't live, what good place does Boss Gu have in his heart?"

Ye Ningxiang asked this very skillfully, she clearly knew that with Gu Liancheng's identity, even if she hadn't found out where this person named Zheng Quan's identity card was hidden in Shuozhou City, it was not difficult to order her subordinates to settle their residences in advance.

Gu Liancheng glanced at Ye Ningxiang and snorted coldly, "I have already greeted His Royal Highness King Yi before, and we can stay in his mansion temporarily." ”
