Chapter 23 Collusion

Miss Yan went to bed in a side room, but the steward did not go to sleep, but moved a chair in front of her room to guard it, looking like she was going to keep a night here.

Although this steward has not yet broken through the Qi refining, he has practiced for so long, and his body is not much worse than that of Zhuang Hao and the others, and it should not be possible to make a mistake in personally taking care of Miss Yan.

However, just in case, He Ping still chose the nearest partial room, and if something really happened, he could help in time.

That night, there was a light rain, and then it gradually stopped, only the wind blew, and the windows in the house were beaten by the wind to make an unpleasant "creaking" sound.

He Ping didn't spend his aura practicing spells tonight, but after compressing his aura, he pondered for a while.

Sure enough, when I was about to touch the son, this old man He finally had some movement.

He Ping ran the aura to his ears, and with the blessing of the aura, He Ping clearly heard what this He Lao Men was doing.

He leaned out slowly, first to the window, closed the wind-blown window, and then, as if he had found a cane, he went out step by step.

"It's not like going for a walk. He Ping sneered, this old man He shouldn't have any good intentions.

At this time, Zhuang Hao and the others were already asleep, how do they know what Uncle He did.

When Uncle He walked away, He Ping walked out of the door, he was not going to follow Uncle He to see what he was doing, but was going to inform everyone first.

Even if he is a practitioner, there is no way to follow others without being detected, especially in the middle of the night.

As soon as he approached the strict steward who was sitting in a chair and pretending to sleep, the steward suddenly woke up.

"What's the matter?" Steward Yan stared at him tightly, looking very defensive, in fact, he had never let down his guard against He Ping, the person who joined halfway.

"Shhhh He Ping made a silent gesture to Yan Guan and said in a low voice, "Uncle He here has just left." ”

Steward Yan looked up at the slightly open wooden door, and saw that the place where Uncle He was originally was empty, nodded, and said, "I know, you go and wake up Zhuang Daxia and them, I will wake up Miss, and we will leave overnight." ”

Although Zhuang Hao and the others were still a little sleepy-eyed, they immediately became serious when they learned that Uncle He suddenly ran out at night, and they had never heard of it when they were staying at other people's houses and being killed and robbed of money by thieves at night.

"Brother He, are you sure this old man didn't just go out to get some air?" Liu Nie smiled a little playfully.

He Ping was noncommittal, and the chickens next door in the distance seemed to have a "Gege" sound again, maybe there was a yellow skin coming down the mountain to catch the chickens.

"Nie Zi, you are in the mood to laugh," Zhuang Hao walked over and patted Liu Nie's shoulder, and said, "Let's go, if you don't leave, this Old Man He will become He Laohu." ”

Miss Yan's body is indeed weak, and she is a little unstable on her feet, so she relies on the strict steward to support her, so as not to fall.

He Ping's ears suddenly moved, as if he heard something, looked out the door, and said with a smile, "I'm afraid we won't be able to leave." ”

Zhuang Hao was stunned, he didn't hear any sound, but after a while, the sound of Uncle He's crutches was near, and he could hear it.

"Brother He, what a good ear! If you go to cultivate the lion roar skill of Kunlun Mountain, you will definitely have great attainments. ”

"Big brother, what does good ear power have to do with the lion's roar?" asked Liu Niefa.

"This lion's roar skill not only has to be practiced with a loud voice, but also has good ear power, otherwise you will be deaf in a few voices. ”

There was another burst of laughter.

After a while, Uncle He pushed the door back, but as soon as he opened the door, he suddenly saw He Ping and his party standing in front of him.

"Uncle, it's dark outside, I'm afraid it's not safe for you to go out!" Zhuang Hao lowered his head and said to Uncle He.

Uncle He looked a little panicked, his eyes flickered, and he replied, "I...... I, I just feel depressed, go out and breathe. ”

"Oh...... It's breathable. Zhuang Hao smiled and said coldly, "Do you know that colluding with thieves has to be beheaded." ”

As he was talking, there was a sudden sound of horses' hooves outside the door, obviously the thief who had colluded with the old man came.

Hearing the sound of horses' hooves, Steward Yan and Miss Yan were immediately shocked, and Miss Yan was even more frightened.

Uncle He was obviously relieved when he heard the sound of the horse's hooves, and immediately ran outside to pick up the visitors.

He Ping and his entourage also followed out, and found that although there were only a few people, they were not at all like mountain bandits, and looking at their clothes, they looked more like people from the government.

These people were able to come so quickly, obviously it was not that this He Laozhang went to call him at night, but he should have found an opportunity to inform these people from the moment he saw He Ping and others enter the door.

The person who rode at the front looked to be in his thirties, wearing a black brocade robe, with a square face, a beard, a long sword on his back, and then a hat, with a unique shape written with the word "Kuang", it was a person from the government!

"Old man, are you sure you recognize it?" the man jumped off his horse and asked Old Man He beside him.

"Recognize it, recognize it," Uncle He nodded hurriedly, "I saw the wanted notice when I went to the city yesterday, although she was veiled at this time, but I still knew it at a glance, and it was absolutely wrong." ”

"Hmm. The man wearing the official hat nodded, and the rest of the people also dismounted and walked towards He Ping, "Old man, you have made a great contribution, and you should be rewarded." ”

"My lord. Uncle He smiled like a chrysanthemum in the back.

"Reward!" the man waved his hand, but did not look back.

I saw that a person next to Uncle He suddenly pulled out a saber from his waist, and when the knife fell, Uncle He's head immediately separated from his body.

His head fell to the ground, his eyes widened, as if he didn't understand why he had made a meritorious service and was cut off by the people of the government.

"Except for Miss Yan, kill them all!" The man gave the order, and several people around him quickly walked to the front and drew their knives.

"Damn!" Zhuang Hao spat out a mouthful of saliva, looking at the strict steward on the side, "How did it have anything to do with the government!"

"Big brother is not the time for civil strife now, we have to deal with these people first. ”

"I know!" Zhuang Hao was a little depressed, but since this matter was related to the government and he was involved, no matter what the outcome of this matter was, he couldn't do business on the surface.

"I can't help but let Lao Tzu fall into the grass and leave!" Zhuang Hao roared and waved his fist at the people in the government.

"Little Brother He," He Pingben was on the side, also ready to help, but was stopped by the strict manager.

"Little Brother He, please take care of Miss. Steward Yan sent Miss Yan into He Ping's arms, and seeing that Miss Yan was about to fall, He Ping hurriedly held her up.

Seeing that Miss Yan was fine, Steward Yan was a little relieved, and took out a hidden blade from his sleeve and stabbed it straight at the person in the official mansion.

Strict stewardship is also a person who practices martial arts.
