The magpie opened its mouth wide, and the shock in its heart was indescribable.

"Let's go~" Xie Changyu patted the magpie's shoulder for comfort. She knows that cruel things are placed in front of a little maid who only knows how to chop wood and serve people all day long, and it takes time to digest them slowly.

......

Fenglai Mountain, it is not too big to say, peculiar in the eighteen bends of the mountain road, steep enough, according to legend, Fenglai Mountain once came out of the phoenix, it is a fairy mountain.

There are countless herbs on the mountain, among which the most famous is the phoenix grass.

Xie Changyu remembered that it was recorded in an ancient book he had read before that this phoenix grass could cure all kinds of poisons, and it only grew in the crevices on the edge of the cliff, and it was hard to find. But many people who came to collect medicine were killed by the bandits of Fenglai Mountain without even seeing the cliff, and there were no bones.

In her previous life, she had never seen any rare treasures, and in order to pick a phoenix grass, she also spent a lot of money to send people to Fenglai Mountain to find it. It's a pity that the people she sent haven't come back yet, so she drove to Hexi first~

"Miss, there are three paths, which one should we take?"

The magpie suddenly spoke, interrupting Xie Changyu's train of thought.

There are three roads, and they come from Fenglai Town to occupy one road, so there are two more roads for people to choose.

There is only one road leading to the neighboring village.

Xie Changyu looked at the rain that fell like a beaded thread on the edge of the oil-paper umbrella, and pointed to the road on the left: "Magpie, you go to the left, I go to the right." If you can get out of Fenglai Mountain and arrive safely in the border town, remember, don't act rashly, you rest in the border town for a few days, if I haven't come out after two days, you will report to the police immediately. ”

"Miss, let's go the same way, I'm afraid you're not safe alone. The magpie said uneasily.

"Magpie, this road is dangerous, so the soldiers are divided into two ways, and there is still hope to survive. ”

Xie Changyu found that he had talked a lot since he was reborn, and his temperament was a little calmer than in his previous life.

She sighed and ordered, "Grab the umbrella and leave immediately." ”

"Yes, miss. ”

The magpie said goodbye to Xie Changyu in the rain with a desperate heart, and then turned around and left.

......

Xie Changyu walked into the road on the right, walked for an hour, and was stunned that there was no abnormality, just when she herself thought that the right road was the exit, she noticed the strangeness of the road ahead.

The vegetation in front of him didn't seem to be in the right position with the roadside vegetation just now, Xie Changyu frowned slightly.

This subtle difference is difficult to identify in the eyes of others, but who is Xie Changyu, she was the imperial county lord who personally led the army to fight in her previous life, and this kind of trick has long been left over from her.

There's a pit trap or something 100% underneath the vegetation.

Xie Changyu saw that there was no one around, so he picked up a piece of gravel and smashed it there, and after a while, there was a muffled sound.

She hooked the corners of her lips, and her heart was so big. The bandits in Fenglai Mountain are ruthless enough, and with such a deep pit, people can break their legs when they go down.

Xie Changyu slowed down and slowly moved towards the deep pit.

Suddenly, there was a sound not far away.

The alarm bell rang in her heart, and she found a hidden place to hide in the grass.

"Didn't these two masters get kicked in the head by a donkey? The pouring rain still made us squat in this place! You say, normal people can go up the mountain at this time?"

"Hey, didn't you say that the inn let go of two men and two women? The second master was not at ease, so he sent us to take a look, I heard that there is a young lady from a big family, who is as beautiful as a fairy, and when she is caught, she will take it up the mountain to the second master as the lady of the village!"

"Huh, the trap seems to have been moved! Look, is there anyone down there?"

"Hiss~ Good guy, there's really one. It's a man, and he's fainted. ”

"Pull it up!"

"I'll go, why is it so heavy, pull it up and kill it. ”

"Don't do it first, I think this kid should have some background, carry it back, and hand it over to the second master to dispose of. ”

"Alas, it's unlucky, and you have to pull a dead man on a rainy day. ”

"Don't complain yet, when we get back to the cottage, we can ask for credit. ”

......

Through the hazy heavy rain, Xie Changyu couldn't see it really, and when the two bandits walked away and couldn't see their backs, she got up from the grass and subconsciously touched the soft whip on her waist.

She is good at soft swords, and she doesn't know anything about whipping techniques! When she encounters a dangerous situation, she can't show that her biggest advantage is that she is looking for death.

It stands to reason that Xie Changyu still has a chance to turn back.

But she wanted to know the truth about the murder of the Youming Army in the mouth of the old woman, so she chose to follow the mountain and find out the truth.

It's a rainy day, and it's getting dark very quickly.

Xie Changyu followed the rugged mountain road and the bloodstains washed away by the rain, all the way to the den of the bandits in Fenglai Mountain.

It is a cave backed by a cliff.

Outside the cave, five or six burly men stood guard, and it was not easy to get in.

It seemed that there was going to be some kind of feast inside, and dozens of boxes were parked outside the cave, and people kept coming in and out to carry them.

"Give me a gentle handle! It is full of gold, silver and jewels seized by the great masters. ”

A lean middle-aged man screamed and instructed someone to carry the box, and it seemed that his status among the bandits was quite high.

"Yo, you're here!"

"Well, tell the brothers to go in and drink. ”

"The second master, the excitement is lively, there must be two standing guards, otherwise something happens, and the big boss can't spare us. ”

“......”

Xie Changyu fixed his eyes and saw that the man known as the 'second master' turned out to be a scholar in white, with a slender and straight figure, but he was wearing a crescent white mask, and he couldn't see his true face clearly.

Xie Changyu didn't hear what the next few people said, but after a while, the people guarding the door entered the hole.

Golden opportunity!

Xie Changyu ran up in three steps, and wanted to sneak directly into the hole, but her eyes stopped at the box, and she came to curiosity,

Fingers flick the entryway on the box.

"Squeak~" only opened a little gap, and she immediately closed the box.

A look of disbelief flashed in her beautiful eyes, and suddenly, her ears moved, and she casually pried open a box and hid in.

The two big men who were guarding the door just now walked out, and they didn't have a match for talking.

"It's really good to be in charge of the second house, knowing that we are standing guard and have no wine to drink, so I personally handed us wine. ”

"Don't you think it's a little strange for the second master today?"

"No, are you thinking too much!"

"Maybe! The second master is the military advisor of our cottage. ”

"Hey, hey, what are you two talking about! Stand guard!" The lean middle-aged man walked out again, and instructed his subordinates who were following him, "You guys, carry these boxes in and put them in the warehouse first." ”

"Hey~ This box is so heavy. ”

"Waste, I can't even lift a box! It's full of big things, of course it's heavy, be careful with Lao Tzu." ”

In the dark, Xie Changyu covered his mouth, and his forehead was hit in pain.
