Chapter 178: Accommodation (I)

Chen Ao looked at the flowing water and was silent for a long time. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info Su Fan and the three of them looked at each other, not knowing what to do.

After a while, the sky slowly turned white in the distance, and it was almost dawn. Chen Ao suddenly said, "Let's go!"

His voice was firm and powerful again. Su Fan was surprised and delighted, and said, "That's right! Let's go find the person surnamed Duan to settle the account!"

Long Qingping nodded hurriedly and said, "Yes, yes, yes, I have always regarded Duan Yi as a good person." I can't imagine that he even bullies women! Hmph, if I meet him again, I must teach him a good lesson!"

Sighing, Chen Ao glanced at the three of them and thought, of course, this account has to be calculated. But the most important thing now is to find Xuanning's whereabouts as soon as possible. If she was really injured and was met by some bad guy, it would be unimaginable.

When people are worried, they always think of more worrying things. The more Chen Ao thought about it, the more anxious he became, and he took a step and left. Several people didn't sleep all night, and they didn't expect him to have the strength, which surprised the others.

All the dry food was in the burden on the horse's back, Su Fan and the others could only drink a few sips of cold water, barely filled with water, and then got up to find a way out of the valley.

Chen Ao was hurrying away, thinking about it, if Xuan Ning could really escape, he should have been rushed far away at this time. If you follow the river, you might be able to find out. It just so happened that the direction of this river was to the destination of Haixian. When Xuanning is found, and then he goes to Haixian County to take up his post, he has a helper under his hands, and then he goes to rectify Duan Wuji's father and son, it will be easy.

And the Axe Gang. Since they said that they were going to connect in Haixian, they also wanted to go there. These people can't be spared either. Chen Ao thought in his heart, and the original pent-up worry and grief gradually faded.

The four of them walked together, and Long Qingping always felt sorry because she had misunderstood Chen Ao before. In addition, the opponent of the Axe Gang was provoked by her, which led to Xuanning falling off the cliff in the end. She felt ashamed and worried that Chen Ao wouldn't be able to think about it, so she deliberately approached him along the way, and she had nothing to say, but she actually wanted to ease the tense relationship.

Chen Ao looked at this innocent and innocent girl, and her original prejudice against her had long since dissipated. And I know that Long Qingping is simple and kind by nature, and grew up on an isolated island, and has not been contaminated with the filth of the world at all. I feel that such a character is really a rare quality in this impetuous society.

Several people did not rest, they were already exhausted, and walked slowly, until noon, when they left the valley and walked onto the avenue.

Chen Ao thought to himself, from the conversation between Duan Wuji's father and son, he could hear some clues, they came from Jingxiang and went to Haixian County for something big. Although I can't guess what conspiracy they have, this is a rich land in the south of the Yangtze River, and the jurisdiction of the imperial court is far from comparable to that of Liangcheng, where the emperor is far away.

Duan Wuji and others who came from other places should be even more cautious. Now the top priority is to inquire about Xuanning's whereabouts along the river. After finding the person, you have to rush to Haixian as soon as possible. At that time, whether it is to find out the conspiracy of Duan Wuji's father and son, or simply make something out of nothing, give them a random charge and throw them in prison, it is all according to their own hearts. Anyway, I didn't do less than this kind of deed.

Chen Ao simply said his thoughts, but omitted the dark thoughts in his heart. Su Fan and the others naturally had no objections, and they wanted to contribute.

After leaving the mountain, the crowd gradually increased. There are several small villages along the river, which live by the water. The four of them crossed the village and entered the village, and every time they went to a place, they asked if they had found a girl who had fallen into the water. However, until the evening, no trace was found.

Xuanning seemed to have suddenly disappeared from this world, no one alive or dead.

Chen Ao had even begun to wonder, could it be that Xuan Ning was so coincidental that he had encountered such an unbelievable thing as crossing over? But he quickly dispelled this idea. The current celestial phenomena are not at all like the strange situation when I first crossed over.

Seeing that it was getting late, there was a wilderness ahead. Walk another fifty or sixty miles, and you will arrive at Haixian. I can't enter the city anyway today, so I can only find a place to sleep.

All the villages have been visited, and no one has been found, which makes everyone really a little disappointed. The four of them dragged their tired bodies and walked on the official road, when they suddenly saw a flag standing next to the road in front of them, and the word "Shang" was written on the flag.

Under the flag, there is a house with a high door wall, and people come and go at the gate, which is very lively. When I got closer, there was a large plaque on the lintel, which read "Binjiang Hall" in four letters.

Su Fan suddenly came to his senses, clapped his hands, and said, "Okay!

Seeing that everyone was puzzled, Su Fan opened his mouth to explain that the original Jiangnan boundary has been prosperous in commerce since ancient times, and there are frequent business exchanges. In many places, such trading stations were built for merchants to stay and stay. Since the merchants were rich and poor, these guilds were also high-end and low-grade.

The big room in front of me looked dilapidated and tattered, with a few holes in the wooden walls, and it was obviously not a high-end place.

Hua Niansu frowned slightly and said, "Here, I think it's better to change places." ”

Su Fan said: "This kind of small place, it's already very good to be able to find such a place, Miss Hua, don't pick and choose!"

Hua Niansu's face flushed, originally she was just a little disgusted, but when Su Fan said this, she seemed to be pampered. So she sank her face and said no more.

Chen Ao has no opinion, anyway, these days, sleeping in the wild is also a common thing, and he has long been used to it.

The four of them walked into the gate of the hall together, and they were greeted by a lobby. There were more than a dozen square tables in the lobby, and many people were already sparsely seated, and they began to eat dinner.

Chen Ao glanced at it and couldn't help frowning. It turned out that when I looked at the past, I saw that the people I saw were all dressed in short clothes, and many of them were carrying knives and sticks, where they looked like merchants coming and going, but like wandering characters in the rivers and lakes. To put it bluntly, it is an idle social person.

Chen Ao told Hua Niansu about his discovery, and Hua Niansu and Long Qingping were also a little nervous. The three of them discussed in a whisper, and Hua Niansu said, "Let's be careful, anyway, we have to go on the road early tomorrow morning." ”

Chen Ao nodded. This hall is low-grade, and the asking price is naturally not high. Su Fan only had a little silver tael on him, which was enough for the accommodation expenses of several people. I only listened to Su Fan and the shopkeeper's rambling for a long time, and finally turned around, shrugged his shoulders, and said, "It's unfortunate that we came, there is only one room left!"
