The next day, it was dark.

The gates of Liangzhou City slowly opened, and a group of soldiers walked out neatly, holding spears on both sides of the gate.

At this time, there was a long queue inside and outside the city gate, and the people outside wanted to go in, and the people inside wanted to come out. The city gate, which was originally full of people, was instantly silent because of the appearance of these soldiers.

A general in bright armor walked out with a majestic expression, raised a portrait in his hand, and shouted at the soldiers: "Show me carefully, if someone lets go of the guilty for personal gain, he will be punished for the same crime!"

"Yes!" the soldiers replied in unison.

The general nodded with satisfaction, looked at the long line on both sides with a majestic look, and then turned to leave.

Most of the people who want to enter the city are farmers who carry fruits and vegetables, and they want to rush to the vegetable market to get a good spot, sell them at a good price while they are fresh, or deliver those fresh fruits and vegetables to various restaurants and tea shops on time. In addition, there are also patients who rush into the city to grab medicine, as well as farmers who take tools such as flat poles and iron drills to work in the city while the farmers are idle to earn some wages to feed the old and young.

Those who want to go out of the city are even more strange, there are those who sit in a sedan chair to go to Baiyun Temple to offer incense, some ride horses out of the city to play, and there are merchants who rush to the next town with a carriage full of goods, in short, there are all kinds of things.

Everyone was in a hurry, anxious to go in the direction they wanted to go, and they kept urging each other, either the one who was carrying the burden was slow to pull the car, or the merchant who was riding lightly was afraid that there were too many goods, and the city gate was very lively for a while.

Each soldier had his own duty, some of them were in charge of checking the belongings of those who were entering and leaving the city, others were in charge of carefully comparing the portraits, and all of them were wide-eyed for fear that one of them would slip out of their hands if they were not careful. As the general said just now, if anyone lets go of the prisoners, they will be punished for the same crime, so no one dares to take it lightly.

At this moment, there was a commotion in the crowd that had entered the city on the left, and then there were quarrels, coaxing, and shouting, and the crowd that did not know the truth looked curiously over there, and then slowly gathered over.

Regardless of age, regardless of occupation, human beings love to join in the fun. This small commotion soon gathered almost half of the crowd in line, and the entire city gate was completely impenetrable.

Seeing this, the two men in the crowd with vegetables all over their faces glanced at each other and walked quietly towards the city gate. Who knows, just as he was about to pass through the city gate, a squad leader with a meaty face came over with a few people and shouted at the two: "What are you doing? Go back and line up!"

The two of them immediately nodded submissively, quickly dodged back to their original positions, and glanced at each other, both with a wry smile on their faces.

The team leader separated from the crowd and squeezed in, shouting at the people gathered there: "Whoever dares to make trouble, arrest them all!" After speaking, he shouted at some of the small soldiers on the side who didn't know what to do, "What are you going to eat? If you let Na Qin escape, you won't have enough to cut off ten heads." ”

Seeing this person appear, the crowd quickly dispersed, still lined up in two long lines, but with a little curiosity, his eyes kept turning to this side.

This little soldier was only fifteen or sixteen years old at most, and when he was reprimanded by his boss, his face turned white with fright, and he hung his head obediently, where did he dare to say half a sentence.

Seeing that the other party was trembling because of his fright, the team leader snorted with some satisfaction, turned his head to look at the few people who were still standing motionless, and frowned: "Don't you want to line up yet?"

A girl carrying a vegetable basket stepped forward when she heard this, bit her lip and said with a flushed face: "Official, we are all law-abiding people, not some prisoners. It's okay to search my basket, but isn't it too much?"

"That's right! She is still a big girl who has not yet come out of the cabinet. ”

"Forget about searching the basket. ”

"I'm fine with a rough old man, but I search the body of other girls, hehe......"

Several people immediately began to talk about it, and some people covered their mouths and snickered with malicious intentions.

The squad leader glared, took out the saber on his waist, pointed at the man with the loudest voice, and said, "Whoever makes any more noise, I will arrest him back!"

As soon as these words came out, everyone kept their mouths shut.

Only the man was obviously not convinced by the knife, and as soon as his chest was straightened, he was about to step forward to argue a few more words, but he was pulled by the person next to him. As the saying goes, the poor are not compared with the rich, and the people do not fight with the officials. Especially if the other party is still obviously reasonable, if he is arrested and put in prison, no one will pay attention to the injustice.

The knife in the squad leader's hand pointed at the few people who had just spoken, and said, "You, you, you, and you, you stand aside." After speaking, the trembling little soldier said, "Continue to search!"

The soldier hurriedly stepped forward and shouted at the man at the back of the line: "Next!"

Seeing that those people were taken away by the team leader, the two men with vegetable faces at the back of the line glanced at each other and nodded in unison.

may have been frightened, and Xiaobing's inspection was not so meticulous, and soon the two men passed the customs and entered Liangzhou City logically.

The two walked a long way one after the other before they entered an alley, and the taller man whispered, "Just ahead, follow me." ”

The short man nodded, following closely.

It was only when he walked to an ordinary house that the tall man stretched out his hand and knocked lightly on the door.

Soon, there was movement in the house.

In a few moments, a vigilant face emerged through the crack in the slightly open door.

The tall man stepped forward and said in a low voice, "Uncle De!"

When the man saw the tall man's eyes lit up, he quickly dodged out of the way, beckoned the two to hurry in, and then closed the door.

The two followed into the house, until they reached the innermost room, Uncle De turned the candlestick on the wall, and then he heard a clicking sound, and the wall that had been intact suddenly reversed, revealing a dark passage.

Uncle De took out the fire fold from his arms and blew it up, and walked in first, followed by the two.

After passing through a long passage, Uncle De took the two of them around several times in a row before stopping in front of a wooden door, reaching out and knocking.

There was soon movement in the door, and then a woman's voice was heard whispering, "Who is it?"

Uncle De didn't reply, but looked at the tall man.

The tall man smiled slightly, stepped forward and responded, "It's me, Yunxiu." ”

The people inside exclaimed in surprise and said in a bit of a panic: "You wait!"

The short man looked at the wooden door with some confusion, not understanding what she was panicking about?

These two disguised as bitter men are Yunxiu and Tang Zixi.

This is also a coincidence, although Yun Xiu's master did mention that he asked him to go to Gu Tianzheng to get the Blood Marrow Grass, but first, he was stumped by other things, and second, he didn't think that Gu Tianzheng could really find the Blood Marrow Grass, because he actually had no intention of going to Guxi Village in his heart. Instead, he has been monitoring Dong Boren, who is known as Dong Yizhen, near Tongrentang.

It's not that he really suspects anything about the other party, but when he was invited by Ni Pengcheng to save Tang Zixi, he inadvertently found that the other party's needle technique was very similar to the four-elephant needle method that the master had mentioned. According to his master Baili Xi, this kind of acupuncture is from the master's unique secret book "Medical Scripture", so he suspects that Doctor Dong is the one who stole the secret from the master many years ago, which is the real reason why he stayed near Tongrentang. But it was precisely because of this that he discovered Dong Boren, who sneaked out of the city at night, and saved the villagers of Guxi Village by mistake, and also saved Miss Tang by the way.

The two didn't wait long before the wooden door opened, and an extremely beautiful woman stood at the door, looking at them curiously.

"Miss Li!" Yun Xiu smiled slightly, stretched out her hand and wiped off the disguise on her face, revealing her true face.

When the beautiful woman saw that it was really him, she immediately laughed, and turned around and said, "It's really Yun Gongzi!"

"Come in!"

The two followed the beautiful woman into the room, and then passed through a beaded curtain door.

A young man with his back to them was admiring a landscape painting on the wall, when he heard the movement behind him, he turned around and said with a smile: "Brother Yun!" Then he found the short man following behind, and said with some confusion, "Who is this?"
