Just when Jing Xining and Mingyue Yu were asking people about the whereabouts of Tianchan Palace, a group of people targeted the two of them. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

"I'll go and report this matter to the steward, you two are here to keep an eye on them", one of them hurriedly left after giving the order, and the other two kept following Jing Xining and Ming Yueyu from a distance.

After a while, the man who had just left came with six or seven men, and one of them walked in the middle, and they were all respectful to him, and that man was what he called the steward.

One of the people who stayed there immediately gathered around him when he saw the steward coming.

The steward asked, "What about the people?"

One of the people who stayed behind pointed to Jing Xining and Mingyue in the distance, bowed his head and bowed down, and said, "Qiqi Steward Liu, it is those two people who have been inquiring about the whereabouts of Tianchan Palace. ”

Steward Liu looked at Jing Xining and Mingyue Yu, "There are not many people in this Jianghu who know about Tianchan Palace, and the two of them dare to come to Kuhan City to inquire about the settlement of their intentions, you bring your brothers to solve the problem of the two of them, and you can't let them leave here." ”

"Yes!" the men replied and dispersed.

Jing Xining and Ming Yueyu inquired on the street for a long time without any clues, and the two walked to a teahouse next to them and sat down, "Yueyue, let's rest and have a cup of tea first!"

Mingyue Yu was also a little tired, so she sat with Jing Xining in the teahouse on the side of the road to drink tea and rest.

The two were drinking tea when suddenly the five appeared in front of them.

The five people stood in front of the two of them and looked at them without saying a word, Jing Xining looked up and saw a few people with fierce eyes, not good, thinking that it must be someone who came badly, but still asked very politely: "May I ask what are you doing?"

One of them put his foot on the stool next to Jing Xining, stuck a big knife on the table, and asked coldly, "Where did you come from?"

Jing Xining saw that they were also dressed as Han, so he replied: "We are from the Middle Plains. ”

The man looked at Jing Xining and Mingyue Yu, "What do you want to do when you come all the way from the Central Plains to Kuhan City?

Jing Xining listened to what the man said and his tone was very dissatisfied, "Look at your dress and appearance, you should also be a Han person, but you have a Han court, and you have only been a subject of the Liao people for a few days, and you have become the current virtue, don't you even remember where your ancestors came from?"

"You!" The man's face was very ugly after being humiliated by Jing Xining, and he pointed at Jing Xining and roared loudly, "I see that you are toasting and not eating and drinking, give me a hard lesson for these two people, and then drive them out of Khan City." ”

After the man finished speaking, the person next to him picked up the stick in his hand and hit Jing Xining and Mingyue Yu, Jing Xining kicked a bench next to him to the front, and swept down the two of them at once, Mingyue Yu was holding the tea bowl, and threw it at one of them, the man took a knife to block the tea bowl in front of him, but he was hit to the ground by the force of Mingyue rumor on the tea bowl. Seeing this, the leader also swarmed with the others, and immediately the small tea shop was overturned by a group of people, and everyone fought in the street, causing all the surrounding people to gather around to watch.

Those few people were not the opponents of Jing Xining and Mingyueyu, and after a while, they were beaten all over the ground looking for teeth, the leader didn't expect Jing Xining and Mingyueyu's skills to be so good, knowing that they were not their opponents, they led their men to flee, and before leaving, they also put down the cruel words, "You wait, rush to the wilderness in Kuhan City, and you will look good when the time comes!"

After those people left, the owner of the tea shop couldn't help crying when he saw his teacups, tables, benches, and countless teapots and teacups being shattered, Jing Xining helped the boss up, and handed him all the silver left on his body, "Boss, if you take these silvers, you will treat them as if I accompany you." ”

The owner of the tea shop looked at the silver in Jing Xining's hand, thinking about the appearance of Fang Cai's fight, he wanted to take it but didn't dare to step forward, Jing Xining personally put the silver in his hand, "You can rest assured that you can take it, it's not easy to make some money this year." ”

The owner of the tea shop saw that Jing Xining's tone was gentle and sincere, so he had the courage to take the silver, and then thanked him non-stop.

After Jing Xining and Mingyue Yu left the tea shop, Jing Xining couldn't help but sigh: "I really didn't expect that the same Han people, some people fight with the Liao people regardless of their lives, but some people are willing to become lackeys to work for the Liao people and bully their own people, this world is really not ancient!"

Mingyue Yu was pondering, listening to Jing Xining's sigh, and asked rhetorically with doubts in his head: "Xining, do you really think they are just a group of ordinary Han people who do things for the Liao people?"

Jing Xining looked at Mingyue Yu, "They have been asking us where we are from, and they keep saying that we are spies and want to drive us out of Khuhan City, aren't they?"

Mingyue said: "I always feel that things are not so simple, but I can't tell what's wrong." ”

Jing Xining smiled: "Then don't think about it yet, let's continue to go ahead to investigate." ”

The group of people were going to clean up Jing Xining and Mingyue Rumors, but they were picked up by them, and they fled back in embarrassment and told the Steward Liu, who was a little surprised after hearing this, "You have never missed a move in this Khan City, and you were beaten like this by the two of them, it seems that these two people are really not simple." ”

One of them asked, "Shall we bring more people with us?"

Steward Liu waved his hand, "You send two brothers to follow them first, and then we can finish tonight's business first." ”

At this time, the sky had begun to darken, Jing Xining and Mingyue Yu were still walking on the street, but the people around them were all hurrying to their homes, all the shops were closing early, and the street market, which was still very lively during the day, was now not many people walking.

"Why are these people in such a hurry, it's not dark yet, and all the shops are closed, what's going on?" Jing Xining didn't feel a little strange.

Mingyue Yu looked around, "Yes, although it's going to be dark this day, it's not like all of them are closed and leave!"

There happened to be an aunt passing by them, Jing Xining hurriedly stopped her, "Auntie, please stay, I want to ask why everyone is in a hurry to go home before it gets dark?"

The aunt stopped and looked at Jing Xining and Mingyue, "Are you from out of town?"

Jing Xining nodded, and the aunt said: "As soon as I look at you, I tell you that if you come to join your relatives, hurry up and find your relatives, and if you pass by, quickly find an inn to live in, don't walk around on this street." ”

"Why, auntie?" asked Mingyue Yu, pulling her along.

The aunt said: "My old woman is nothing, especially you young people, there are often young people missing in this Khan City at night, and whether it is male or female, the younger it is, the more dangerous it is, so you should quickly hide and don't go on this street." ”

"Is there such a strange thing?" Jing Xining asked.

"But isn't it, within a year, there have been a lot of young people who have disappeared for no reason, and some even fall asleep at home and there are no people early the next morning, so everyone says that there must be monsters in this city that specialize in catching young people, and it is said that some people have seen it, but the next day people become stupid, and after a long time, the men, women and children in the city are panicked, so everyone goes home early and closes the door", the aunt said with relish, but her expression was a little nervous," I've got to get home and stop talking to you, so let's go."

After the aunt finished speaking, she hurried away.

Jing Xining looked at Mingyue Yu, "How can there be such a strange thing, is there really a monster in this city?"

Mingyue said: "This monster is not, I think someone must be making trouble, since we have encountered it, I want to see who these people are." ”

Jing Xining said: "Moon Rumor, we are new to life and are not familiar with life, so it's better to leave these things alone for now, and wait until we find Xiao Jin." ”

Mingyue said: "It is important to find Xiao Jin, but how can we turn a blind eye to the fact that so many young people in this city have disappeared for no reason? ”

Jing Xining was a little ashamed after hearing this, "Yue Yu, I retracted what I just said, it's my fault, so what are you going to do?"

Mingyue Yu thought for a moment, "Don't they like to catch young people, let's lead this so-called monster to appear on this street, I want to see what is sacred today?"

So Jing Xining and Mingyue Yu changed the clothes on their bodies slightly, wrapped their headscarves around their heads, and walked around the streets of Kuhan City.

The two of them wandered aimlessly for nearly an hour, but they saw nothing suspicious, and there was no movement in the street except for the sound of the two of them walking.

"I don't think this monster will appear tonight", Jing Xining looked around boredly.

Mingyue said: "We'll walk for a while, if there's nothing to do, let's find an inn to stay in first!"

At this moment, a black shadow suddenly flashed from not far away, Jing Xining and Mingyue Yu looked up, only to see something on the roof jumping over the roof very lightly.

"Is there really a monster? That's really scary!" Jing Xining couldn't help but be a little surprised when he looked at him.

Mingyue couldn't help laughing, "What kind of monster, didn't you see that Xining is a person with a ghost head mask?" But that person's light skills are good, let's hurry up and follow, don't let him run away."

So Jing Xining and Mingyue also jumped onto the roof with light skills, and chased after the man with the ghost head mask.

The man's light skills were indeed very good, and his body was as light as a little swallow stepping on the tiles on the roof, without a single sound.

Jing Xining and Mingyue Yu also used the best light skills for fear of being discovered by the man, so they followed closely behind, and the two chased after them for a long time, and the man flew off the wall like walking on the ground without the slightest sign of stopping, and his feet fell on the roof for a while and his hands were propped up on the beams for a while, and from a distance, it looked like a flying crawling monster on the roof.
