Chapter 4: The Lonely Soul and the Wild Ghost (I)

The upstairs seat is quiet, the windows are bright and clean, and a table of sumptuous wine and food has not been touched, obviously waiting for someone. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

When the pony walked in, the driver was looking at a knife in his hand. The length of the knife is only about a foot, the scabbard is finely made, the accessories are gorgeous, the handle is inlaid with gold and jade, and the blade is shiny and flowing, bright and compelling. It is indeed a rare treasure knife.

The pony recognizes the knife, as it was still in his package before noon. This "Qilin Knife" was given to him by the owner of Murong Zhuang when he was ten years old. In the Mid-Autumn Festival of that year, his father-in-law took him to Murong Villa as a guest and stayed for a few days. He has been with him for twelve years. At this moment, the driver took it in his hand and looked at it repeatedly, as if he was contemplative.

Hearing the sound of footsteps, the driver put down the knife, got up and hugged his fists, and said: "Just now, I was grateful for the help of the Duke of Grace, and I was grateful for it. ”

"Miss Murong is too polite, and the effort of her hands is not enough to worry about. ”

"Miss Murong, ahem, isn't Engong Mo joking. ”

"Since the girl recognizes this short knife, she can naturally guess who I am, I already know that the girl was intercepted by the Blood Hall outside Hangzhou, and I just want to ask the girl about something. ”

When the driver saw the pony say this, he said: "I shouldn't have hidden it from the help of the Grace Princess, but Mother Wei has repeatedly told me that this return to the villa may be dangerous, and I must pay more attention along the way, and I must not be gullible to others." As he spoke, his eyes were red, tears were faint, and he continued: "In order to protect me, Mother Wei is afraid that something has happened at the moment, and I regret my son, we are like sisters, but I escaped by myself." ”

"What the girl is referring to outside the city of Hangzhou?"

"Yes. Since I was eight years old, I have been practicing martial arts with Miaoshou Shenni in Boye Mountain, and I have been back home two or three times in 12 years. Not long ago, my father sent me a message, saying that everything was fine at home, and that there was no need to worry, and that I should not rush home in the near future and concentrate on learning from my master. I know that my father has always loved me very much, and he has always been happy and not worried. Reading his letters, I was always restless, worried, thinking about it, I decided to go home, so Master Yuming, and Wei's mother, Xi'er came down the mountain, that Wei's mother is my mother's good sister, I grew up watching me grow up, and I have been around to take care of my diet and daily life all these years. Her daughter is a year younger than me, and we have been inseparable since we were children, like sisters. ”

"We traveled all the way day and night, and within a few days we entered the Zhejiang border, Wei's mother found that we were being stalked, at first I thought we were some kind of thieves, and I didn't pay much attention to it, but for three days, they were well-trained and just secretly followed. Mother Wei came to catch a praying mantis cicada that day, and the yellow finch was behind, and Yi disguised herself to follow the person who was watching. ”

"After following all the way for a long time, I heard one of the short and fat people say: 'The hall master asked me to wait for the capture of Murong Yuntian's daughter, but it has been two or three days, and I have only followed her, and I don't know what the purpose of protecting the Dharma is. They are happy in the city of Hangzhou, and our brothers will do this drudgery. The thin man said: "No wonder everyone calls you a pig's head, you are really a pig's head, I haven't seen that Murong girl, so I have to inquire clearly, right? The Dharma Protector has always been far-sighted in his work, and since he wants us to do this, he has his own reasons, otherwise do you think that the name of 'running rampant for thousands of miles' can be so loud? You and I can just do our own things in peace, and what are you doing so much? ”

"Mother Wei was taken aback when she heard the thin man say 'rampant for thousands of miles', if that devil took the lead, she really couldn't be sure of winning, listening to what the two said, the strength of this Blood Hall didn't know how terrible it was, and they would soon be in Hangzhou City, they must have to make a move soon, and they need to think of a perfect plan as soon as possible. ”

Mother Wei came back and told us about the situation, and continued: "They will definitely not wait for us to arrive in Lin'an to make a move, they kidnapped Miss this time, and they are going to Murong Villa." But since the owner withdrew from the rivers and lakes twenty years ago, he has rarely asked about martial arts affairs, and has lived a semi-secluded life, and it stands to reason that he has no enemies. We don't know what the purpose of this blood hall is, and now the priority is to escort the young lady back to the villa. We didn't enter Hangzhou City, and made a detour to go straight to the villa. You will change into Miss's clothes, and as for Miss, you will have to disguise yourself a little. ”

I insisted on refusing, Wei's mother said: "If Miss has any mistakes, I and Xi'er can only die to apologize, since their goal is Miss, I guess we will not embarrass us, if Miss can get out safely, I and Xi'er may still be able to meet Miss, if you refuse to listen to me, I will kill myself in front of Miss at this time." ”

"I was also out of proportion at the time, and I was forced by Wei's mother to die, and I didn't expect her to say that just to comfort me, where would they still have their lives in the hands of those people. Miss Murong choked up and blamed herself.

Xiao Ma knew that this Murong girl had never suffered anything since she was a child, and it was normal for her to be helpless for a while when she encountered such a sudden event. At the moment, he said: "Girls don't have to blame themselves too much, maybe they don't have to worry about their lives." After a pause, he replied: "Later, you disguised yourself as the person who drove the car, and he hid in the carriage?"

"At that time, there was no way, we did a bag transfer in the inn that day, and we hurried away before dawn. In the willow forest outside Hangzhou, the masked men in black stopped us. At that time, in order to facilitate the escape, it had already been discussed, and they would lure the man in black away, so I took the opportunity to escape. At that time, the leader said that we should stay in Hangzhou City for a few days, and then he would send us back to the villa, in fact, isn't it just hijacking, without saying a few words, the two sides handed hands to each other, Wei's mother and they fought and retreated, I could only pretend to be very scared and shrank on the wheel. At that time, the sky was not clear, they did not notice for a while, so they only left two people down, the others chased over, I found a chance to solve the two people, so I drove all the way, but I did not expect to be caught up in the middle of the road, and you rescued me to get out. ”

At that time, the girl said that she had something important to do, and she must be in a hurry to return to the villa, but why did she stay here. ”

"After you and I don't say goodbye, I walked all the way, my brain gradually calmed down, thinking that since the Blood Demon Gate is so far-sighted, I will never fail to make second-hand preparations, and I don't know how fierce I am along the way, I am afraid that I will not be able to return to Murong Villa with my own strength, but I don't know where to find a helper, and then I happened to see the Qilin Knife, and I recognized that this was a gift from my father to a teenager back then. I guess there are people coming and going, so they won't rush to do it. Therefore, I waited here, and dared to ask Engong to help me and escort me back to the villa. ”

"In the next time, I was going to Murong Villa to send a letter to the owner of Murong Villa, and it was only when I heard that the girl was from Murong Villa that I came to help, and now it is naturally incumbent on me. On the way down, I made a friend, and if he helped, it would be foolproof. ”

"I wonder where this friend is now?"

He is downstairs, and Tu Jie, who took the lead in intercepting the girl, is also downstairs, and the girl can ask Wei's mother and others about the situation. ”

Miss Murong was overjoyed: "So let's go down quickly." ”

The two of them came downstairs, and the monk of Shanyuan was impatient, and shouted: "Why have you been gone for so long, and you haven't seen a girl, what is there to be so wordy about two big men." ”

When Miss Murong heard this, her face couldn't help but turn red, but fortunately, she changed her appearance, and everyone didn't notice it.

Xiao Ma said to the monk: "This is the daughter of the owner of Murong Zhuang, the journey home this time is dangerous, I want to ask you for a hand, I don't know what you think?"

"Miss Murong?" the monk touched his bald head, remembering what he had just said, his expression was a little unnatural. Instead, he said: "The lord of Murong Zhuang is still the benefactor of my master and apprentice? At the beginning, my master and apprentice were often helped by him, but now that my sister is in trouble, I should help the monk. What's more, the monk loves to join in the fun, if you don't call me, I'll follow. ”

"Thank you, Master Shanyuan. ”

"You just call me a monk, I can't stand these Svens the most"

"So I forgive the little woman for being abrupt. Miss Murong clenched her fists slightly, and then turned to Tu and said, "Thief, what did you do with those three people this morning...... What to do?" the eyes were both hopeful and fearful.

"The old man doesn't know!"

"You don't know, how can you not know, you were the one who led someone to intercept us in the morning. Miss Murong's eyes were full of tears and she was emotional.

"I subdued them in the morning, and when I saw something was wrong, I chased them, and I didn't know that they might be killed or brought back. ”

Miss Murong was disappointed, and she was at a loss for a moment and didn't know what to say.

Xiao Ma said: "Whether they are dead or alive will soon have an answer, now the key is that we should hurry to Murong Villa, and tell the owner of Murong Villa everything, so that we can make a countermeasure." ”

"Yes, yes, sister, let's hurry first. ”

Miss Murong nodded blankly.

By this time, the rain had gradually stopped, and the sky was still overcast. After settling the wine money, everyone walked out of the restaurant, took their mounts, and went straight to Murong Villa. After walking for more than ten feet, there was a sudden commotion ahead, and pedestrians avoided both sides.

I saw two thin old men in ragged clothes standing in the middle of the road, with no trace of blood on their faces, their hair was full of messy hair and shawls, and they held a strange-shaped weapon in their hands, standing there, as if they had fallen asleep. The two of them must have been standing in the rain for a long time, but their clothes were dry, and the small raindrops that fell down changed direction about an inch from their bodies.

They just stood there so haphazardly, as if the slightest bit of wind could blow them away. But the pony ten feet away clearly felt a suffocating murderous aura!
