Chapter 12: The Orphan of the Magic Knife (7)

At this moment, I suddenly heard a noise downstairs, and someone shouted: "That traitor! Get out!" The two glanced at each other, put on their clothes, and when Nangong Yu was about to open the door, Zhu Xinqi said, "You." Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½ć€‚ć€‚ You want to go out from here?" Nangong Yu woke up and said, "Yes, it's better to keep a low profile in front of Master Qiyu." After saying that, he returned to the balcony and jumped back to his house.

The residents were shocked to go out of the house to watch, only to see more than a dozen big men standing in the lobby, their sharp eyes sweeping over everyone, as if they were looking for someone. The shopkeeper hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "The heroes are invited, do you have any service?" The white-faced man at the head said: "We are Tongtian to help Xiangyang divide the rudder, there is news that there is a man with children living in your store, but there are any?" The shopkeeper thought for a while and said: "There is indeed such a person." The white-faced man said, "Where does he live?" The shopkeeper dared to offend them, so he had to point to a guest room in the Westinghouse and say, "That's it." The white-faced man made a look, rushed up the stairs with his help, came to the guest room, kicked the door open, but saw no one, the window was wide open, and the white-faced man sneered: "Can you run, let's go out and get someone." As he spoke, he walked out, inadvertently glanced at Situ Lan not far away, and exclaimed, "Big... Miss!" hurriedly led someone to bow down and salute: "Subordinate Xiangyang helmsman, Guo Mingchen has seen Miss." ā€

Situ Lan said: "Lord Guo Helm, how do you recognize me?" Guo Mingchen said: "When my subordinates went to the main altar to visit the helper the year before last, I saw Miss once, and there were many people who went at that time, and it was normal for Miss to have no impression of her subordinates. Situ Lan nodded and said, "You go and get busy with you." Guo Mingchen sighed and said, "Miss has been away from home for a long time, the helper and the young master are very concerned, and they have conveyed an order, as long as you see Miss, please return to the helm." Situ Lan said: "I won't go back, I haven't played enough, you tell my father and brother." Guo Mingchen was embarrassed: "If the young lady runs away from under the nose of her subordinates, her subordinates will be blamed, please don't embarrass her subordinates." ā€

Situ Lan said: "I won't embarrass you, I will go back when I want to go back, no one can force me, what are you doing?" Guo Mingchen said: "My subordinates are on a secret mission, but unexpectedly, this gang has a traitor and sabotaged the operation, and now I am trying my best to arrest the traitor." Situ Lan nodded and said, "You come in with me." Guo Mingchen bowed down to receive the order. Situ Lan beckoned to Shen Jun and Nangong Yu again, "Come in too." Guo Mingchen frowned and said, "These people are... Situ Lan said proudly: "Of course, this girl has to meet a few good friends when she travels the rivers and lakes, these are all famous young heroes, you also add this sentence when you write to my father." Guo Mingchen said yes.

After entering the house, Nangong Yu and the others reported their names, Guo Mingchen had long heard the name of Yao Guangzi and the master of Ciyun Nunnery, and after saluting each other, Situ Lan said: "What task are you performing?" Guo Mingchen didn't want to mention it in front of outsiders, but at this time there was no way, so he said: "The Situ Gang Master is eloquent and strategic, and he is eager to seek talent, and he wants to invite the 'Western Heaven Sword Demon' Ouyang Ye to be the deputy leader of my gang, but Ouyang Ye doesn't know how to raise and arrogantly refuses, so we used a little means." Situ Lan said: "What means?" Guo Mingchen said: "Ouyang Ye did not continue after losing his wife, and only had an only daughter, Ouyang Shan, who was regarded as a pearl in his palm, and was reluctant to let his daughter go away after getting married, so he let his son-in-law Wang De enter the country and stay in the Western Regions. This year, Ouyang Ye finally agreed that they would go back to Wang's house to see, and the gang leader ordered us to hijack their family on the way to Xiangyang, and used it to blackmail Ouyang Ye into joining the gang. ā€

Nangong Yu frowned when he heard this, thinking that this method was indeed not above board enough, and Situ Xiong's method of attracting talents was really omnipotent, but it was inconvenient for him to make a statement. Situ Lan asked, "How are you doing?" Guo Mingchen licked his lips and lowered his head and said, "Something went wrong." We set up three points to sell tea on the way to Xiangyang, and their carriage stopped at the last one, Ouyang Shan was fascinated by the sweat medicine, but Wang De did not eat tea, so he started to move. That Wang De's martial arts were not very clever, I thought I could easily win it, but I didn't expect him to follow Ouyang Ye to learn the 'Wild Sand Flame Knife' for three years, we didn't estimate enough, and we lost several brothers, it was really difficult to get alive, so we had to surround him to death. I thought that the task was completed, but who knew that there was a boy named He Zhong in the rudder who ran away in the carriage carrying the child. We were all trying our best to deal with Wang De, no one noticed him, and we didn't pay much attention to him after the incident, who knew that he hadn't come back after two hours, so he knew that the situation was not good, and chased him all the way here. ā€

Situ Lan was puzzled: "Why did he take the child away?" Guo Mingchen said: "This is going to ask him, in short, he is a traitor to the gang, and he will not spare him if he catches it." Nangong Yu said lightly: "He is pitiful to that child, he can't bear her to be a hostage, so he does not hesitate to risk his life to save people, his courage is worthy of admiration." If it weren't for the child, he wouldn't have ventured to come to the inn, just hide in the deep mountains and old forests, how can you find it. ā€

Guo Mingchen wanted to sneer at him, but when he thought that he was a friend of the eldest lady, he swallowed back the words that came to his mouth. Situ Lan said: "Now that they have run away, what are you going to do?" Guo Mingchen said: "Eldest Miss, rest assured, we have laid a net of heaven and earth on their inevitable path, and we have also invited Elder Qu to preside over it, which is foolproof." Situ Lan was surprised: "Uncle Qu is also there?" Guo Mingchen said: "Yes, so Miss can't run away, Elder Qu questioned, and his subordinates couldn't explain." Situ Lan said: "I don't embarrass you, Uncle Qu loves me the most, I'll go with you, maybe Uncle Qu is reasonable, and he agrees with me to go to the rivers and lakes." Guo Mingchen said happily: "The eldest lady is willing to go to see Elder Qu, that would be great, now that he should have taken He Zhong's kid, let's go too." ā€

Situ Lan turned back to Shen Jun and said, "Are you also here?" Before Shen Jun could speak, Nangong Yu said first: "We are new here, and it is good to have a long acquaintance with the eldest lady. Situ Lan smiled proudly: "Okay, let's go together." Guo Mingchen wanted to talk and rest, thinking that he was just following orders, and the eldest lady wanted to take whoever she wanted, and she was not responsible anyway, so she agreed, and the group left the inn and went along the road.

There is only one road after going ashore from the Han River, and after walking out of two miles, you will go on the official road, there is no cover along the official road, it is difficult to hide, but there is a dirt road leading to the woods in front of the official road, and out of the woods is several villages built by the mountains one after another, which is conducive to hiding. Guo Mingchen led everyone into the dirt road in the forest, and after walking for a while, he saw that the torches in the distance were bright, and when he got closer, there were more than a dozen people surrounded by the firelight, and there was a young man kneeling on the ground in the center of the circle, with a large pool of blood on the ground, obviously he had just vomited, and he was holding a little girl about four years old in his arms, for fear that she would be hurt. The little girl had clear eyebrows, a round face, two small braids, and clear and pure eyes, which were endearing. In the face of such a scene, he didn't cry, and looked at the young man on the ground with concern.
