"Wait, something isn't right!"

Chen Jin, who was on crutches to explore the way in front, suddenly stopped.

The young man who was walking behind and protecting the man on the horse stopped when he heard this, and asked, "What's wrong?" It was the woman named Yingying.

Chen Jin made a silent gesture at her, lowered his voice and said, "There seems to be someone over there." With that, he cautiously walked to the side of the big tree and looked through the gap in the bushes.

After a while, Yingying also walked over and asked in a low voice, "What's the situation?"

Chen Jin pointed to a place in front of him and said, "On the mountain col over there, it seems that two people are looking for something. ”

Yingying looked in the direction he pointed, and sure enough, she saw two sneaky figures, and asked curiously, "What are they looking for?"

Chen Jin was about to speak, when a quarrel suddenly came, he quickly squatted down, and pulled Yingying next to him down by the way.

"Why did the 10,000 taels of silver that I had promised become 5,000 taels? ”

"You still have the face to bargain with Lao Tzu, if you hadn't exposed your feet and made the old thief have defense, how could Lao Tzu's brother have died so much. ”

"I've had a lot of people die, and I haven't said anything. And I can assure you that there was no trace left from beginning to end, and it is clear that you have leaked the news from your own side, and now you want to rely on me. ”

"Fart! If it weren't for you, why would that kid staring at Lao Tzu and dare to say that it wasn't you?"

"How do I know why he's staring at you, and who knows if it's because you provoked him. Okay, it's useless to talk about this now, you have already got the things, let's pay the money with one hand and deliver the goods with the other, and it's only right to get out of here quickly. ”

"If you don't want money, you need to die!"

"You want to eat black?"

"What's wrong with black eating black? You can still bite me?"

"Okay! You forced me to do what you did, and if that person knew that you threw that woman into a well, what would you think?"

"You're threatening me?"

"Hehe, don't dare! I just kindly reminded Gang Master Lu, I'm afraid that your noble person will forget things. ”

"Count me wrong, I have offended a lot before, my little brother is here to compensate you, you don't remember the villain, don't be like me. You're right, it's only right to get out of here quickly, but I really don't have that many silver tickets with me right now, and I'll give you the rest when I get back to the city. ”

"It's pretty much the same, but my patience isn't very good, and I hope that Gang Leader Lu-"

A terrible scream suddenly came, startling the two who were listening intently, glanced at each other, and tacitly hid their bodies in the shadows.

As if smelling blood, the horse snorted a little uneasily, and the people in the distance glanced this way, but found nothing unusual, and then stabbed down again, and the sound of the blade entering the flesh sounded extremely terrible in the dark night.

Yingying gently patted the horse's head to soothe its panicked emotions.

The man stabbed the figure on the ground several times, and after making sure that the other party had completely lost his breath, he picked up something and ran away, and soon disappeared without a trace.

Chen Jin looked at the prostrate corpse in the distance and said, "Let's go over and have a look." ”

"I'm not going!" Yingying seemed to be a little scared, a little afraid and said, "That person is already dead, Chen Jin, let's go back to the village quickly." ”

Chen Jin shook his head and said: "If I heard correctly, the person who died should be Lao Cai, I'm afraid there will be big trouble this time." ”

Yingying was stunned when she heard this, and said strangely: "Which old Cai?"

Chen Jin glanced at her and said, "It's the person sent by the imperial court every year to collect fine iron." ”

Yingying sighed, and said, "Then who is the Lu gang leader in his mouth?"

"Lu Zhan, the current leader of the Blue Dragon Gang. After Chen Jin finished answering her words, he urged, "Let's talk about these things after I go back, I just saw that Lao Cai seems to have thrown something into the grass, let's go over and have a look, otherwise it will be troublesome when someone comes." ”

"Good!"

......

By the time Tang Zixi woke up, it was already the evening of the next day.

A cool breeze blew in through the half-hidden wooden door, bringing away the boredom and heat of the day. Between the cracks in the window lattices, a touch of orange sunlight crept in at some point, setting off the warmth of the whole room.

She turned her head slightly and found that there were many things on the square table not far away, and the blue and white porcelain teapot in the middle was particularly eye-catching.

Miss Tang, who had just woken up, felt extremely thirsty when she saw the teapot, she struggled to lift the brocade quilt and sat up, but as soon as her feet stepped on the ground, her knees weakened, and the whole person fell forward.

Seeing that she was about to knock over the corner of the table, she was powerless to dodge, and sighed in her heart, so she could only try to tilt her head slightly so as not to be poked in the face.

At this moment, the door was slammed open, and a large strong hand held her shoulder in time.

Miss Tang, who escaped by luck and avoided the disfigurement crisis, raised her head gratefully and wanted to thank the visitor. Who knows, when I saw a familiar face, I couldn't help but be stunned for a while.

The person who came helped her to lie down on the bed, and then bowed and saluted: "Subordinate Yun Muze, I have seen the eldest lady!" His tone trembled a little, and there was a hint of choking, obviously extremely excited.

After coming back to his senses, Tang Zixi also had some tears in his eyes, stretched out his hand to help him, and said, "Yun Guard, please get up, it's not in the mansion now, don't be polite!"

"Yes!" Yun Muze stood up when he heard this, walked to the square table and poured a bowl of tea, put his hands in front of Tang Zixi and said, "Miss, please drink tea!"

Tang Zixi nodded and took the tea bowl, raised his head and drank it all, and then asked: "Why did Yun Guard come here, how is the old lady? Are they okay with the father and mother? There are also the eldest brother, the second brother, and the third brother, what about them?"

Yun Muze took the tea bowl with both hands, bowed down and said, "My subordinates are on the orders of my wife to escort Miss Qi'er to you." When the two subordinates left, everything was fine in the house, please rest assured that the eldest lady would be relieved. ”

Tang Zixi was a little relieved at this time, and his mood was relaxed, and he said with a smile: "Didn't you say that the finch is also here? What about the girl? Isn't it afraid that I will punish her, so she hides and doesn't dare to see me?"

Yun Muze hurriedly knelt down when he heard this, and said, "Eldest Miss, forgive your sins!"

Tang Zixi frowned and said, "What's wrong?"

Yun Muze didn't dare to raise his head, and lowered his head and said: "It's all because the subordinate guards are unfavorable, which caused the girl to accidentally get infected with the wind chill on the road, and was bitten by poisonous mosquitoes when she passed through a dense forest, and she has been having a high fever since then......"

"What?" Tang Zixi was taken aback when he heard this, and struggled to get up, "Where is she now? I'll go see her!"

Seeing this, Yun Muze hurriedly said: "Please rest assured, the doctor in the village is treating her now, and there should be no worries about her life." Miss, you have not recovered from your serious injury, and the doctor said that it is not advisable to move around!"

Tang Zixi held on to the bedpost beside him and said categorically: "Don't say much, lead the way!"

"Yes!"
