Chapter 868, Xiao Tan listens to the secret

This night the moon is dark and the wind is high, and the faint crescent moon in the sky has been covered by dense clouds, and as far as the eye can see, except for the faint outline of the mountains and ravines, it is almost impossible to see people everywhere.

Only the high walls of the Lu family compound in the north of the city are still brightly lit. A large group of people kept running back and forth in the compound, their footsteps were chaotic, and sometimes there was some chaotic angry rebuke, and this noise had completely disturbed the quiet night.

Located near the junction of Huainan Province and Jiangnan Province, Qizhou City is a small town. The Lu family in the north of the city can be regarded as the largest wealthy family in Qizhou. The area of the Lu family has almost occupied one-sixth of the city of Geqizhou, and among the high walls, the houses are dotted and the high pavilions are dense, and there is a prosperous scene of its own.

And in this luxurious manor, there is a very tall tower in the west direction, which is almost the tallest building in the city of Qizhou. At this time, a large number of Lu family members had gathered under the tower. A team of three or five people, looking carefully through the surrounding eaves, gutters, and grass, seemed to be scattered looking for something.

A family member didn't find anything to gain after a long time of investigation, turned back, and said to a big man in green: "Chief, there doesn't seem to be anything here. The steward was furious, and kicked him in the chest, kicking him in all fours. Said fiercely: "Look for me everywhere, even if you dig three feet into the ground, you will also catch this thief." If this batch of things is lost, the head of the family will punish it, and I want your head!"

The man hurriedly got up from the ground, hurriedly buckled his head, and quickly slipped to the other side to search carefully. The chief steward had a hideous face, stood cross-waisted, and whipped the two stone lions in front of the tower with a soft whip in his hand angrily, but it seemed that it was difficult to understand the hatred in his heart no matter what.

"Damn, it's really unlucky, the thing hasn't been hot in Lao Tzu's hands, this damn thief. and stole from your ancestors. ”

The manager scolded a few times, and suddenly heard a snap behind him, and he quickly turned around, and at this moment a black shadow swept behind him, and disappeared into the dark corner in a flash. The man only felt a cool breeze in his ears, and he couldn't help but turn around, but he didn't even see the shadow of half of the person. He looked around, couldn't help but shiver, and instructed the family here to continue the search, but he quickly left alone.

In the corner, a few family members searched to no avail, so they moved from here to the far eaves, but no one found it, and in the depths of the corner, a dark shadow quickly jumped up on the corner wall, and easily climbed out of the tall wall.

Out of the wall, I could hear that the people inside the door were still searching everywhere, and the black shadow finally stopped. Slowly took off the face towel on her face, and her face could be vaguely seen under the cover of the high wall, this person turned out to be Linghu Yu'er.

How could she go to Lu's house to steal something? This has to start with her leaving Yuzhou City that day.

On that day, after Yu'er left the Hongyun Inn, according to what Xiao Er said, he went out of the city alone, found a hidden place to summon the Xuanyu Blue Bird, and went downstream along the Yangtze River. The scenery along the coast is magnificent and magical, with high mountains and steep mountains, turbulent valleys, and thick mist floating in the mountains, like a fairyland. Look everywhere, the white clouds in the mountain col come out, the mountain apes cry constantly, and the quiet scenery makes people forget to return.

Yu'er also stopped and walked on the way, sometimes it was late, she couldn't see the road below, so she looked for a cliff, built a bonfire, sat on the edge of the cliff with her knees crossed, the fire was beating, and there seemed to be only a faint light between heaven and earth. At night, there were often the cries of wild beasts in the mountains, and she was a little frightened, so she sat close to the fire, and calmly added firewood alone, and watched the firewood beep and burn, as if her soul was out of her body, and she did not move, nor did she sleep all night, and sat straight until dawn.

When it was just dawn the next day, she began her day again. Still worried that she would go the wrong way, so after a while she would land and look for some towns to inquire about the way. If there is something delicious along the way, she will not let go of the opportunity to taste it. After eating, they ran away, and those people couldn't catch up with them anyway. When his clothes were dirty and torn, he went to a tailor's shop, picked out a good piece of clothing and left. Yu'er has also lived under the knees of Linghu De, a member of the third rank of the dynasty, for seven years, and is knowledgeable. It's just that she has a stubborn temperament, but she has never done such a thing as stealing and robbing. At first, she felt a little uncomfortable. But after one or two times, I didn't care. The days seem to be back to the time before she was adopted by Linghu Gong.

After about four or five days, she entered the boundary of Huainan Road from Shannan Road. Crossing the water and bypassing Huangzhou, this day has reached the vicinity of Qizhou.

Yu'er landed in a small forest outside the city, put away her soul, and was about to walk towards the city, when she suddenly saw a clear pool not far away. The water is crystal clear and clean.

She had been running around for the past few days, and she hadn't had a good time freshening up for several days, and she saw that there was no one left and right, so she untied her clothes, removed her clothes, and jumped into the pool to take a bath.

The sunlight leaked from between the dense leaves, sprinkled on the water surface a little bit, she splashed lightly, the water surface rippled one after another, the broken gold like the sun continued to flicker, reflecting her snow-like skin, graceful shadows, sultry curves, under the light and shadow, beautiful and incomprehensible.

However, just as she was having a good time in the pool, she suddenly heard the sound of horses' hooves approaching, and Yu'er was startled when she heard the sound, and hurriedly swam to a stone, and just happened to see a stone bridge not far away. So she quickly approached the stone bridge and hid in the hole under the bridge to avoid being discovered.

In a short time, the sound of horses' hooves stopped on the stone bridge above her. Yu'er said angrily, "Why doesn't this horse stop morning and night, but it has to stop in this place, and my clothes are still there." ”

Just thinking like this, I suddenly heard a man's voice on the bridge. "Big brother, after crossing this bridge, we will really leave Qizhou City. No, we're just leaving? We're going to have to find a way to get it back. We can't let them snatch it for nothing. ”

Another man said in a low voice: "What can I do, it is the Lu family in Qizhou, the power is very strong, even the Yangzhou Luo family and the Han family have to respect him for three points, what can we do." ”

The man said one after another: "This group of robbers, but relying on the support of the Luo family in Yangzhou, openly robbed the goods of my Han family, and when they return to Yangzhou, they will definitely not be able to eat and walk around." ”

Yu'er listened in a trance, and only heard what they said about the "Luo family" and "Han family". Who is this Luo family, she doesn't know, isn't this Han family Han Lun's family? Yu'er was overjoyed when she heard this, her body moved, and she swept over the water like lightning, grabbed her clothes in her hands, and hid in the bushes.

She was all about increasing her speed this time, and the movement was not small, and the two people on the bridge suddenly noticed it, and one of them shouted: "Who is there?

As she spoke, Yu'er had finished dressing and walked out from behind the bushes. At this time, the water comes out of the new bath, and the hair is still with water droplets, and the sun is shining, which is extremely fresh and pleasant. The wind through the forest blew slowly, and a faint fragrance of daughter drifted with the wind. Seeing that it was a beautiful girl, the two couldn't help but weaken their vigilance a little.

Yu'er trotted closer, and saw that the two of them were driving a scarlet carriage, dressed similarly, with rough robes, although simple, but extremely energetic. The belts of both men are made of iron buckles, and in the center of them is a large "Han" character. When the two saw Yu'er coming, they both raised their hands and saluted. said: "This girl, may I ask if there is something wrong?"

Yu'er nodded and said, "The two eldest brothers belong to the Han family in Yangzhou?"

One of the men with a mustache suddenly became vigilant and said, "I'm afraid it's inappropriate for the girl to overhear us." ”

Yu'er said: "Girl, I am bathing in this pool, you yourself want to talk here, and I didn't mean to listen." The man paused, and said, "Then please don't ask too much about the girl, and don't say much to others." We'll leave it at that. ”

Yu'er hurriedly stopped him and said, "Are you really from the Han family in Yangzhou?" The man said coldly: "So what?"

She was overjoyed for a while, and hurriedly asked, "Then do you know where Han Lun, the son of the Han family, is now?" The man was slightly surprised, then calmed down and said, "The girl is a friend of my son?" Yu'er shook her head, thinking about it, nodded again, and said, "Oh, what are you asking so much, where is Han Lun?" ”

The man said: "My son-in-law was favored by the Su Qingjian faction of Wuyi Mountain many years ago, and was considered a closed disciple, and now he should still be in the master's door, the girl is a friend of the son, you can go to Yangzhou with us first, and then I will send someone to send the girl to Wuyi Mountain to visit the son." ”

Yu'er Qi said: "Han Lun, hasn't he returned to Yangzhou recently?" The man shook his head and said, "Childe hasn't been back to Yangzhou for three years." When Yu'er heard this, she felt sad for a while. I thought that Han Lun would be in Yangzhou, and the people who met the Han family would naturally see him, but unfortunately it didn't seem to be like this.

"In this way, Han Lun must still be in Wuyi Mountain, and I will go there to find him. She bowed to the two of them and said, "Thank you, two big brothers." By the way, did you just say that something was robbed?"

The bearded man waved his hand and said, "It's nothing, the girl didn't hear it." This matter should not be brought up again. ”

Yu'er said: "The affairs of the Han Lun family are my business, if anyone dares to bully you, I will teach them a lesson and snatch things back for you." The two looked at her slightly and smiled helplessly. Yu'er saw their playful looks and said, "You are afraid that I don't have this ability." The two of them smiled silently, Yu'er also smiled slightly, and suddenly, the spiritual power in her hand was pushed out, and in an instant, she saw a big tree with the thickness of a bowl mouth being interrupted by her palm in the air.

She smiled and said, "This time you are not afraid." ”

The smiles on the faces of the two men had long since stopped, and they looked at her blankly for a while, looking at each other. Suddenly, there was a burst of ecstasy, and he said, "Now there is hope!"
