Chapter 181: Bounty Order
People, can't be too famous, because most of the fame is made because of stepping on others, the more famous, the more people you offend, even if you don't want to, don't take the initiative, trouble will find you, and you will inevitably be hated, especially when you offend some people who shouldn't have offended, the means of revenge are not only endless, sometimes even you can't think of it.
Two days later, Zhan Ying, who was far away in the capital, received a secret letter, the messenger was a woman, she didn't say anything, and left directly to the guards at the door of the six gates.
When Zhan Ying opened the secret letter and saw the contents of the letter, he realized that it was unintentionally brought the news, and asked him to meet in Xinyue Town, dozens of miles away from the capital, three days later.
Zhan Ying looked at the secret letter with only a few scribbled words, and frowned, he knew that Wuxin must have found some clues, and it was very important, otherwise he would not have made an appointment to meet. Thinking of this, he sighed again, looked at a notice placed on the table, and his face was gloomy.
"Someone. Zhan Ying shook his head, gathered his thoughts, and shouted out the door.
Soon, a catcher walked in and waited in front of Zhan Ying, waiting for instructions.
"Inform the iron catcher and ask him to rush back to the capital as soon as possible. Zhan Ying looked at his subordinates and said.
The catcher was stunned for a moment, and said hesitantly: "Commander, the iron catcher just left yesterday, and it is estimated that the case has not been dealt with yet, and it will be ...... now" Before he could finish speaking, he was already interrupted by Zhan Ying.
"Tell him that there is an urgent matter and that he must come back within two days. Zhan Ying waved his hand, interrupted what his subordinates had just said, and said resolutely.
The catcher quickly agreed and quickly retreated, not knowing what was happening, but he didn't dare to delay for a moment, because looking at Zhan Ying's expression, something big should have happened.
Compared with facing all kinds of difficulties in life, people are more willing to choose comfort, or even escape and anesthetize themselves, so many people are inextricably indulged in eating, drinking, prostituting and gambling, escaping all kinds of unbearable things brought to them by real life. It is precisely because of this that all kinds of casinos and Fengyue places have prospered and survived. So sometimes it's because some people give up that others are successful.
Crescent Moon Inn never seems to worry about the source of customers, there are always too many people who come here, and they want to go in and vent all kinds of unbearable things in their hearts.
Today's Crescent Inn, as in the past, is still overcrowded, full of all imaginable erosions, fine wines, women, and a lot of silver on the gambling table, making people think that there are only these things left in their lives, as if they have forgotten what they did before entering the door and what they lived.
At the entrance of the corridor staircase on the second floor, there was a fair-skinned young man in a green robe standing coldly at everything that was happening in front of him, as if he was not infected by the atmosphere. This person is none other than the boss here, Long Crescent.
Although Long Crescent is the boss here, he never touches anything here. The wine, the women, the gambling table, all these things seemed boring to him, just watching the waves of guests come and go. He knew that these things were poison for those guests who came to the door, but he did not have mercy, because people can only save themselves, others cannot help, he is just providing another way to let these people know that they are still alive.
Suddenly, Long Xinyue's eyes widened, and he looked at the door of the Crescent Moon Inn in surprise, and a hint of joy appeared on his face, because he saw a familiar figure that could not be more familiar. Although the man was wrapped in black clothes, and even his lowered head was pressed low by the brim of his hat, he still recognized it at a glance, because he knew the jet-black knife, and he knew the momentum that seemed to be innate.
Long Xinyue didn't hesitate any longer, quickly walked down the stairs and came to the door, with a hint of a smile, quietly looking at the figure who was standing at the door and also looking at him. The person standing at the door is none other than Wuxin.
"Why are you here?" Long Xinyue asked curiously, looking at Wuxin curiously, as if the girl had seen the Lang Jun she had been thinking about day and night, and he happened to have a delicate face, so there was really no way for people not to misunderstand.
Wuxin looked at Long Xinyue's eyebrows that seemed to be a little overlooked, and suddenly his heart tightened, and he had the illusion that he shouldn't come. So he said lightly, "Not welcome?" and as he said that, he turned around and walked out, not looking like a simple joke.
"Hey!" Seeing that Wuxin really turned his head to leave, Long Xinyue shouted, crying and laughing, "You really want to leave? Who said you weren't welcome? I just didn't expect you to come." ”
Wuxin heard Long Xinyue's words, stopped, slowly turned around again, glanced at the noisy crowd in the inn, and frowned.
"What, do you need me to give you the entire inn again?" Long Xinyue looked at Wuxin and said with a smile, he seemed to see that Wuxin didn't like the current environment.
Wuxin shook his head and said lightly: "No need." Then he walked inside and went straight to the second floor. Long Crescent also followed.
After being arranged into a room by Long Xinyue, Wuxin felt that he was finally quieter, no longer so noisy, and felt that the whole world was a lot quieter, and the original frowning brows gradually dispersed.
He wasn't very used to going in and out of such places, even in Phantom City, he hardly went to the front yard of Phantom Sound Pavilion, but he still rejected Long Xinyue's seemingly joking proposal just now. He knew that if he wanted to, Long Crescent would really drive away all the guests of the entire Crescent Moon Inn and entertain only himself.
But he didn't want that, because there was something important to do here this time, maybe it would be safer to hide in these mixed people, and he could also hide his whereabouts appropriately, he didn't want to be like last time, and then the big ghosts and little ghosts would come to the door.
Long Xinyue looked at Wuxin, who was already sitting on a chair, and said slowly: "You are not small, aren't you daring? At this time, don't you hurry up and hide, and dare to run here? This is not far from the capital." As he spoke, he glanced warily outside the house, as if he was worried about something.
Wuxin listened to Long Xinyue's words, and was a little puzzled, and asked lightly, "What's wrong?"
Long Xinyue was stunned for a moment, looked at Wuxin in surprise and said, "You still don't know, I heard about your feat at Yanmen Pass." He shook his head and sighed.
Wuxin looked at Long Xinyue's appearance, listened to Long Xinyue's words, frowned, and asked suspiciously, "How do you know?"
"Not only do I know, I'm afraid that now the whole world knows about it, and it has long been rumored, saying that you burned down Yanmen Pass and made a big fuss about Yanmen Palace, and the court has posted notices and is arresting you everywhere. Long Xinyue said with a serious expression, and he could see from Wuxin's expression that Wuxin really didn't know that he was in danger.
Wuxin listened to Long Xinyue's words, his brows furrowed even deeper, he had been in a hurry these days, and he didn't pay attention to the news around him, but he didn't expect that it would be known to everyone now. But few people knew that they had broken into the Yanmen Palace, and the only possibility was that the people from the Yanmen Mansion deliberately released the news.
"It's better if the court just arrested you, but now it's not just them, the court has issued a reward order, anyone who can arrest you will be rewarded with ten thousand taels of gold, whether you live or die, do you know how many people are staring at you now? That's why I'm so surprised that you came here." Long Xinyue shook her head, said with a solemn expression, and slowly sat down opposite Wuxin.
"The reward order, issued by the Yanmen Palace?" asked unintentionally, how could he feel that he had been calculated.
Long Xinyue shook her head and said slowly: "No, it came from the capital, Xianwang Mansion." ”
Hearing the words "Xianwangfu", Wuxin instantly understood, it seems that all this is a conspiracy of Xianwangfu, Gong Jiu must have told the Seven Sages that he overheard the conversation between them, so they were in a hurry to kill themselves, deliberately made this matter bigger, and made themselves the target of everyone, not wanting anyone to be on their side, and then issued a reward order of 10,000 taels of gold to let themselves be hunted down by everyone.
After thinking about it, Wuxin shook his head and smiled bitterly, and said lightly: "It seems that many people are looking for me now, I don't seem to be able to stay here, don't let them smash your Crescent Moon Inn again." ”
"You can still laugh? I really admire you. Long Xinyue also smiled and shook his head, he had never seen anyone who could look at his life and death so lightly, so relaxed, if he was an ordinary person, he was afraid that he would either stand up and run away, or he would be stunned with fright, but Wuxin still looked fearless.
Long Xinyue paused, thought for a moment and said, "Don't worry, as long as you are here with me for a day, no one will dare to come to kill you, except for the people from the government." ”
Wuxin listened to Long Xinyue's words, a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes, and he could see that Long Xinyue was not joking. He didn't understand why Long Xinyue had such self-confidence, or that it was not self-confidence at all, but a fact.
So, Wuxin couldn't help but look at Long Xinyue and asked, "Who are you?" Although they are already friends, or even confidants, Wuxin doesn't know what Long Xinyue's origin is, and he has never cared, but now he has a trace of curiosity.
Although Long Xinyue said that the people in the government were excluded, just the promise that he could keep all the people in the rivers and lakes out of the door has proved that Long Xinyue is not simple, or the identity behind him is not simple.
Long Xinyue smiled and said slowly: "Don't ask, I don't want to say some lies to deceive you." He didn't seem to be willing to answer unintentional questions, and seemed to be worried.
After listening to Long Xinyue's words, he didn't want to ask anymore, since others don't want to say it, there is no need to break the casserole and ask to the end, when he wants to say it, he will naturally say it, and if he doesn't want to say it, he won't say it, everyone has their own secrets.
He understood what Long Xinyue meant, if he kept asking, then Long Xinyue would definitely think of another answer when he was forced to do so, such an answer was untrue, Long Xinyue was unwilling, unintentional and unwilling. But the more this is the case, the more Wuxin feels more curious about the identity of Long Xinyue.
"You take a rest here first, and I'll have someone prepare you a pot of hot tea, and then I'll get you some food. Long Xinyue stood up, said slowly, and then opened the door and walked out.
Wuxin looked at the door that was gently closed, thinking back to what Long Xinyue said just now, and began to secretly guess Long Xinyue's identity in his heart, but he couldn't figure it out.
Two days later, two new guests came to the Crescent Inn, two guests who also didn't look like they were here for fun, and they rode two fast horses and slowly stopped at the door of the Crescent Inn.
These two people were wearing ordinary clothes, but they had two hats on their heads, and the black veil in front of the hats just blocked their faces, so they couldn't see clearly, but just by looking at the way they walked, it could be seen that they were not ordinary people.
The two of them tied their horses to the post at the entrance of the inn, looked around cautiously for a while, and then turned and walked into the Crescent Inn.
Today's Crescent Moon Inn obviously has fewer guests than before, this is because Long Crescent has deliberately reduced the number of guests, and the people who come are some regular customers who have taken care of each other, and strangers have refused to receive anyone these days. He wanted to keep out as many people as possible who were waiting for the opportunity to plot against him, and although he was confident that no one would dare to go wild here, he did not dare to guarantee that some people who were carried away would take risks for the sake of ten thousand taels of gold. Originally, he planned to close the business for a few days, but he was unintentionally refused, because it would make people more suspicious.
When Long Xinyue saw the two people who had just walked into the inn, she frowned unconsciously and walked slowly towards the two of them......
