Stone Town Post Station is actually a two-story inn restaurant. It often receives caravans returning north from Suzaku Castle, so it is large in scale.

In addition to the guards and grooms in the caravan, most of the people who drink in the lobby are legged to run errands on the rivers and lakes to find a living, and they have traveled south and north for many years, and if there are few dry goods with some meat to accompany the wine, they are embarrassed to sit in the lobby and invite others to drink.

This one boasted that he was fortunate enough to meet Miss Tan'er, the most popular Qingqi person in Vermilion Bird City, and the other boasted that he was fortunate enough to open the curtain on the night of the full moon and discussed the wonders of the winding path with which little lady.

For a while, the atmosphere in the wine room full of rough men gradually reached a climax.

At this time, the beauty came from the night and woke up the drinkers in the hall.

"Shhhh

The entire lobby gradually fell into silence with a flurry of inhalations.

When Ning Chu, who was dressed in white and holding a sword, walked into the bright candlelight in the lobby from the night, those men who couldn't hide the wind and frost all covered their faces with the wine bowl on their faces, raised their heads and drank wildly, and floated their eyes straight to her through the cover of the porcelain bowl.

Candle lighting, white clothes with swords, stunning beauty.

Looking at the beauties under the lamp, the more you look at it, the more beautiful it becomes!

They are all men who have been contaminated with meat, and they know that there are thousands of beauties in this world, but for those of them who have been in the rivers and lakes all year round, there is nothing more exciting than seeing a real white-clothed female swordsman.

Ning Chu seemed to be unaware of everyone's naked gaze, and quietly found a place to sit down under the gaze of a full house of men.

The second child of the post station reacted at this time, and stepped forward and asked with a flattering face: "Chivalrous girl, what do you need to come to our post station so late?"

After Ning Chu rescued her junior brothers and sisters a few days ago, she also made a special trip to escort the other party all the way, until she bypassed Vermilion Bird City, she rushed forward day after day, and she really wanted to find a place to take a hot bath all the way.

She replied calmly, "One of your best rooms here has hot water, two taels of beef, and a pot of good wine." ”

The post station Xiao Er looked embarrassed: "Chivalrous girl, there is food, but the best room is full of people." ”

Ning Chu looked at the men in the hall of this post station, and guessed in her heart which caravan happened to be resting here, she retreated and said, "That clean room with hot water is enough." ”

The post station Xiao Er was still entangled: "I'm really sorry, you have also seen the chivalrous girl, our post station just received a large caravan of more than 100 people this evening, only the chase shop, presumably you will not want the chivalrous girl." ”

As soon as Xiao Er finished speaking, the horsemen who lived in Tongpu laughed out loud, and I don't know which of them reminded him: "Miss, they are on the second floor, don't be rude!"

These horsemen died down at this time, but the group of guards who sat in the most prominent position in the center of the hall were not so obedient, they were originally bandits and bandits in the Iron Bone Village, although they were following the orders of the owner of the village to escort the caravan all the way, but it was more like a tour of the mountains and rivers to eat and drink.

One of them was obviously a leader, and the man with the thief's eyebrows and rat-eyed eyes smiled strangely: "Fairy, if I give you my room, I will still live in a first-class room." ”

Ning Chu was still wondering if he should go to other inns in the city to look for it, but when he heard this, he clasped his fists and saluted: "Then thank you for this big brother, I will pay you twice the house fee you paid." ”

The bandit leader laughed and said, "Fairy, I don't want you to pay twice as much as the house money, I haven't finished what I said just now, I mean we live together." ”

"Hahaha-"

Those bandits in the iron bone village all raised their wine bowls and touched one vigorously, and the bandit leader was complacent in his heart that he had just verbally teased a swordsman beauty, but he didn't know that the killing intent in Ning Chu's cold eyes had gradually gathered.

The man who had just spoken in the groom spoke again at this time, this time obviously angry, "You bandits must not be rude to women, my young lady has already told you to pay attention to your words and deeds!"

The man in the horseman, who has been working under Liu Weirui since he took over the Liu family's caravan, knows that his young lady looks down on people who disrespect women the most, so although the other party is much stronger than himself, he still speaks out to stop it.

"Hmph! If you want to die, just say it!"

The bandit leader was on the rise, feeling that his demeanor was unmatched for a while, where would he have thought that he would be reprimanded by a powerless horseman, who was strong and strong, and he had been suppressing his nature because of the existence of Mu Qing for several days, he was angry, and he slapped the table directly and got up, and wanted to cut the so-called horseman under the knife.

And his companions were also coaxing at this time, feeling in their hearts that the life of a groom was worthy of them, and even if they killed one person, they would not dare to say anything to themselves if they wanted to come to the caravan.

The bandit leader walked towards the horseman, and at the same time did not forget to continue to chat with Ning Chu: "Fairy, when I kill this person, I am inviting you to share in that superior room." ”

Ning Chu only felt that his ears were pickled, and he said in a cold tone: "Do you think you can still have the life to sleep?"

"Boom-"

Ning Chu's delicate long sword was unsheathed by an inch, and a white sword qi swept directly over like a long forest of wind.

"Smack-"

In the straight line where this sword qi struck, there happened to be some disrespectful bandits, and everyone was in a panic, and the tables and benches were directly shattered by the aftermath of the sword qi, and that magnificent sword qi directly hit the bandit leader who was still smiling obscenely after smashing several tables one after another.

"Ahh

This was not the exclamation of the bandit leader, because the man had already turned into a piece of flesh and blood on the ground by this time, and the bandits were so frightened that they screamed in fright when they saw that the boss of their trip had died like this.

The movement in the lobby downstairs also alarmed the drunken Mu Qing, long before the caravan set off, he told Liu Weirui the name "Xu Cao" he got from Cao Baiji, everyone figured out that the caravan could still encounter more powerful assassins to intercept and kill, and they had been cautious a few days ago, but they didn't expect that something would happen after getting drunk under the beauty lamp tonight.

Mu Qing bit the tip of his tongue lightly, forcibly forced himself to wake up a little, and was about to get up and go out.

Unexpectedly, everyone was propping up the table and saying in unison: "I'm with you"

Mu Qing hurriedly stopped everyone: "You are all injured, if you really encounter an assassin intercepting and killing, you are helping me instead of coming out, obedient, I will lock the room after I go out." ”

After that, he didn't wait for everyone to refuse, and rushed out of the door directly with a short sword in his hand, jumping off the second floor.

At this time, everyone in the hall was panicked because of the incomparable sword qi, and people pushed people together, but it covered Ning Chu's appearance, Mu Qing only saw a back, and thought that some assassin had already found the door, and the mixed green qi surged, and hurriedly flew forward to stab.

"Humph!"

Ning Chu felt that there was a strong enemy attacking behind him, and hurriedly drew his sword out of its sheath and turned around to block.

"Bang bang bang-"

Jian Xiu's response to the enemy has always been to fight for a breath of true qi before retreating, and it is because the green qi and white light between the two are intertwined, and for a while, no one can see the face of the other side clearly.

The more Ning Chu fought, the more frightened she became, she really didn't expect that there would be a master with a stronger true qi than herself in a caravan she casually encountered tonight.

I didn't dare to be careless in my heart, so I hurriedly lifted a breath of True Qi Sword Yuan, and used the first style of Aoki's sword technique, "Wind Scroll Changlin".

Mu Qing was now half drunk and half awake, and between the sword light crisscrossing his beard, he only felt a burst of Qingxin body fragrance coming to his face, and he was a little chaotic for a while, and suddenly felt a very familiar sword move flying towards him, and most of his mind was sober, and the second form of the body method "Floating Heaven and Earth" hurriedly retreated, and he no longer dared to fight back, and shouted loudly in his mouth: "How can you 'sweep the wind and forest'?"

"Ahh

"Huh?"

The scene changed from extremely dynamic to extremely quiet for a while, Mu Qing and Ning Chu recognized each other quite embarrassed, Ning Chu gave Mu Qing a look, and regardless of the confused and sluggish gazes of others, as soon as the "Lost Trail of the Green Field" came out, he swept directly into the night.

Mu Qing dropped a sentence: "I'll chase her, you protect the young lady." And he went away.

"Hey—"

"Senior Sister Ning Chu, don't run so fast, okay. ”

The cold wind blew on the spring night, and Mu Qing was full of true anger, and the wine had already retreated.

"Hmph, you're quite comfortable all day, aren't you happy to be accompanied by beautiful women every day?"

Ning Chu stood under a big tree and stopped, teasing without saving face.

I was on the road day and night under the stars, but I didn't expect some people to drink fine wine every day.

Mu Qing also stopped at this time, and said quite embarrassedly: "Senior sister, you are joking, it's all your own family, don't talk about two families." ”

Ning Chu held his sword and sneered: "You are not even an outer disciple of Wanhua Valley, who is a family with you." ”

He saw that Ning Chu's Qingshuang Sword had not yet been sheathed, and hurriedly begged for mercy: "Senior sister, I'm really sorry, I was just half drunk and half awake and actually shot at you, can you tell me what happened just now?"

After Ning Chu put the sword into the sheath, he said calmly: "That rat thief is disrespectful to me verbally, do you want to hold me accountable?"

Mu Qing waved his hand again and again and said: "No, no, senior sister, you must have misunderstood something, although those bandits are with us, they are not actually from the caravan, and this matter is quite troublesome to explain." ”

"If you think it's troublesome, let's talk about it later. Ning Chu walked a few steps, stared at Mu Qing and said suspiciously: "It stands to reason that you have already gone to the front, why are you still in this post station in Stone City?"

Mu Qingxing's eyes flashed, and he didn't answer Ning Chu's question, but instead asked, "Senior sister, do you know what I'm doing?"

Ning Chu nodded and said, "Deacon Chen from Quanfu sent a letter to the master, and the letter said that you might encounter some dangers, so Senior Sister Peony begged the master to find me to help you." ”

Mu Qing raised his eyebrows slightly, and said with a smile: "So senior sister, you are here?"

"Hmm. Ning Chu looked at Mu Qing's frivolous appearance and said angrily, "You haven't said how you can appear here." ”

Mu Qing's eyes rolled and he replied seriously: "This should be related to the letter you mentioned, Senior Sister." ”

"Oh?" Ning Chu's eyes lit up and he asked, "Have you already met the assassin who took over the mission at Jinguan City?"

Mu Qing smiled and said, "Yes, I killed him too." ”

"What?" Ning Chu was a little surprised, "This Cao Mo is the ninth assassin on the assassin list, and he is good at using poison to manipulate people's hearts, which is quite a dangerous character." ”

Ning Chu's implication was that Mu Qing, a fledgling stinky boy, had not been punished.

Mu Qing smiled bitterly: "That person's name is Cao Mo? I thought Cao Baiqi was his real name, and I was also subjected to the other party's way, but senior sister, you also know my secret, my body has a natural advantage over poison, so I narrowly beat that person." ”

Ning Chu also thought of that possibility, and recalled the scene of the fight just now, and asked with a smile on the corner of his mouth: "You kid has been blessed by misfortune and has broken through to the third grade?"

Mu Qing was still an eighteen-year-old boy in front of people close to him, and he smiled reservedly and said, "It's a fluke, senior sister, why don't you go back with me and talk again, otherwise they will be in a hurry." ”

"They?"

Ning Chu's nose was slightly plushing, he smelled the smell of fat powder on Mu Qing's body, and said with a teasing smile: "It seems that what Senior Sister Peony said is true, as soon as a man enters the rivers and lakes, he will become a flowery radish and can't find the north, it seems that I have to take care of you for her." ”

Mu Qing smiled helplessly: "Peony is similar to my own sister, I never had any ideas." ”

"Huh. ”

Ning Chutian smiled lightly and said, "That's your business, I don't want to worry about it, you have to provide me with a room with hot water tonight." ”

"No problem, senior sister, let's go. ”
