Dugu Jian nodded, glanced at the killer again, and said to the girl: "Lin'er, since we have received this important news, we can't let it go." Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 infoIn my opinion, we should leave for Datong as soon as possible. ”

"Then what should we do here? And where Ning He is hiding now, we don't know, if we don't catch her, we are afraid that there will be endless troubles. ”

Dugu Jian said firmly: "Lin'er, if my expectations are correct, I will definitely not come here again." From the moment she saw that purple-robed personality killing on Heng Mountain, she must have been able to guess that this had been exposed. Whether she has escaped from the mountain or not, I don't think she will come here, but will definitely go to Datong. ”

Hearing Dugu Jian say this, the girl also felt very reasonable, "Well, Brother Dugu, then this place will be handed over to the masters of the Hengshan Sect, and we will rush to Datong as soon as possible and go to that Shangquan Villa to touch the details of the Five Colors Sect." ”

The two of them had already made up their minds, and they talked to Ning Ling about their plans. Ning Ling thought for a while, looked at the killer who was tied up not far away, and said in a low voice: "Senior Brother Dugu, it's just the words of this killer, I'm afraid you can't believe it all, right?"

Zhang Linxin said with a smile: "That's easy to do, aren't there still six, one by one, and if you confess, you won't be afraid." So, the three of them interrogated the remaining six killers separately, and got a lot of news. Most of what these people said was the same, not much different from what the killer had said before.

When the last killer was taken down, Ning Ling took the lead and said, "Since this is the case, Senior Brother Dugu, you and Miss Zhang are weak, so let's let the Hengshan Sect go with you." Dugu Jian shook his head, "No, Ning Ling, you also have a heavy task here, I think Ning He must still be hiding somewhere in the mountains, as long as you can catch her, it will be the greatest help to us." And my plan is to sneak in quietly and collect news about the Five Colors Sect, which is easy to expose if there are many people. ”

"Yes, Sister Ning Ling, you can stay and catch Ning He with peace of mind, and leave the matter of Datong to us. Zhang Linxin took Ning Ling's hand and said with a smile. Ning Ling nodded, "Okay, Senior Brother Dugu, then you must be careful." ”

"Well, without further ado, Ning Ling, I'll leave the matter here to you, and I plan to set off right here!" Dugu Jian said. Ning Ling hurriedly replied: "Senior Brother Dugu, the road is difficult to walk at night, and it will be dawn in a few hours, and you are also busy for most of the night, so let's rest and wait for dawn before leaving." ”

"Okay, let's rest for a while. Dugu Jian and Zhang Linxin glanced at each other and nodded. A few people found a room here to rest.

Early the next morning, the group disguised themselves and took the seven killers out of the city. The two sides parted at the intersection outside the city, Ning Ling pointed to the road to the northwest and said: "Senior Brother Dugu, Miss Zhang, follow this road all the way to the north, but more than 100 miles, you can reach Datong." Dugu Jian nodded, "Okay, Ning Ling, the matter here will be handed over to you!" As he spoke, he looked around and whispered in Ning Ling's ear: "The Hengshan faction does not rule out that there are still Ning He's comrades, you and Ning Zhi must be careful!"

Ning Ling nodded, "Well, I know, Senior Brother Dugu, you have to be careful!"

As she spoke, Ning Ling ordered someone to lead the prepared horse over and hand it to the two, "Okay, Senior Brother Dugu, let's say goodbye!" As she spoke, she folded her hands and chanted a long Buddha horn. Dugu Jian and Zhang Linxin also saluted, "There will be a period later!" After speaking, he turned over his horse and galloped towards Datong!

More than 100 miles away, the two of them quickly whipped up, did not stop along the way, just after noon, they came to the outside of Datong City. It is already close to the grassland, so you can see many herders of various ethnic groups dressed very differently from the Han people. Judging from the clothing, there are Mongolian tribes, Khitans, Xi people, and even Jurchens, most of whom ride horses, drive cattle and sheep, and come here to trade with Han merchants in exchange for their daily needs of tea, salt and other necessities.

Dugu Jian and Zhang Linxin got off the horse, and while walking, they looked at it, but it was more peaceful than everywhere in the Central Plains. Since the Later Jin Emperor Shi Jingjiao ceded the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun to the Khitan, Datong has been under the jurisdiction of the Liao people ever since. After the Liao Kingdom was destroyed, it was occupied by the Jin people, but for hundreds of years, it did not suffer too much war, but it gave people a more peaceful feeling.

The two of them looked at each other while walking, and Dugu Jian sighed: "Lin'er, all along, whether it is the Jurchens, the Khitans, or the various ethnic groups on the grassland, I have the feeling that they are cruel and murderous, drinking Mao Ru's blood, and are uncivilized. But when I came here today and saw such a scene, I realized that I used to sit in a well and watch the sky. It turns out that they are the same as us, and there is not much difference. ”

Zhang Linxin nodded, "Yes, Brother Dugu, there are also many scum among the Han people, and these ethnic groups may not all be bad people, no one is born with a cruel and murderous thirst for war, many of them are forced by the environment." You see, it is not for nothing that the Song and Liao countries have been able to have peace for more than a hundred years since the alliance between Song and Liao. ”

"Lin'er, I didn't expect you to understand so much. ”

"That's what my dad taught me. ”

While talking, the two of them walked outside a tavern, Dugu Jian looked at the simple tavern made of wood and thatch, shook his head, and said to the girl: "Lin'er, let's rest here for a while, and then go to inquire about the Shangquan Villa." Zhang Linxin agreed, and the two of them tied their horses and walked into the tavern.

The two found a place to sit down, asked Xiao Er to order a few dishes, and sat there waiting. At this time, a convoy came in the distance, and the first one was handsome, dressed in a Confucian costume, with a sword tied around his waist, and a Xiuyan crown on his head, riding on a white horse. Behind him were a dozen large carts, each of which was tightly covered with tarpaulins, and it was not known what they were pulling. There are more than 100 sturdy men on both sides of the guard, each with a sword, and it seems that there must be more valuable things loaded here.

When the convoy came to the tavern, the man in Confucian costume waved his hand and ordered the convoy to stop, and a middle-aged man on the side hurriedly reined in his horse and asked, "Little, small..... Young Master?" the man in Confucian costume said, "Uncle Wan, let's hurry early in the morning, the brothers are afraid that they will be tired, so let's rest here and have lunch before leaving." Uncle Wan hurriedly responded, turned the horse's head and said to everyone: "Brothers, the young master said, take a rest here, have lunch and leave!" The people in the convoy immediately cheered loudly, and drove the carriage to the side of the road and stopped.

I saw that the young master's right leg was raised forward, and he jumped off the horse lightly, and then walked towards the tavern. Zhang Linxin smiled lightly and whispered to Dugu Jian: "Brother Dugu, do you see it?"

"See what?" Dugu Jian was a little puzzled.

Zhang Lin covered his mouth and said: "That person is a woman dressed as a man, but he is actually a woman!" Dugu Jian didn't see it, and glanced at the young master again, but still didn't find anything unusual. The girl took his hand and whispered in his ear, "You see the way she looks when she dismounts, but it is the usual posture of girls, and she has no Adam's apple." Looking at her sitting posture again, which one looks like a man?"

Dugu Jian compared what Zhang Linxin said one by one, and nodded, "Well, yes, Lin'er, you are really observant." I saw the woman sitting at the table, holding up the teacup, and taking a sip gently. That posture is indeed what my daughter's house looks like.

There was a lot of bustling in the tavern, and the people of the convoy sat down and talked and laughed loudly. The woman put down the teacup and said to Uncle Wan beside her, "Uncle Wan, we have to hurry in the afternoon, so don't let the brothers drink and eat more food." Uncle Wan answered, and went over and ordered everyone to go.

The speed of eating in this group was also very fast, Dugu Jian and Zhang Linxin here had only eaten half of it, and the people over there solved all the meals like a whirlwind. And the woman didn't know if the food was unappetizing or because she had a small amount of food, so she stopped using chopsticks after only a few bites. When she saw that everyone had finished eating, she stood up, "Uncle Wan, let's go." Uncle Wan hurriedly greeted everyone, set up a carriage and horse, and followed the woman on the road.

These people came and went as fast as they could, leaving only the people inside and outside the tavern to talk. Zhang Linxin looked at the dust raised by them in the distance, and said softly: "Brother Dugu, I don't know what the origin of these people is, there is such a big scene?" Dugu Jian shook his head, "I guess it's a caravan." As he spoke, he saw that the girl had stopped chopsticks, so he asked, "Lin'er, have you eaten?" The girl nodded, "Well, let's go, Brother Dugu." ”

So the two got up and settled the accounts, and Dugu Jian asked casually: "Xiao Er, what are you more famous here?" The little two replied with a smile: "Guest officer, if you want to say that we are the most famous here, it is the Wuzhou Mountain Cave Temple in the west, where the Da Liao royal family will go to pay respects, but unfortunately many of them were burned by the Jin soldiers, if the guest officer is interested, you can go and see." ”

"Anything else?"

Xiao Er saw that Dugu Jian didn't seem to be much interested, so he hurriedly stopped talking and replied cautiously: "There is Huayan Temple in the city, and there is the tomb of the Three Emperors in the south of the city, what do you think?" Dugu Jian waved his hand and asked, "Are there any other gardens built by mountains and rivers?"

Hearing Dugu Jian ask, Xiao Er thought for a while and scratched his head, "Guest officer, don't you know, although we are not a poor country here, there are very few people who have the ability to build a villa garden. Originally, there was a Shangquan Villa twenty miles south of the city, which was very famous, but it was built by Xiao Lie, the marshal of the West Road of Daliao in the past, but it was abandoned for many years. However, a few years ago, a group of people occupied all the area, and that group of people was very fierce, killing people without blinking, and classified the area around Shangquan Villa as a forbidden place, and no outsiders were allowed to enter or leave, and once they found someone breaking in, they would be executed immediately, and they didn't care so much about you. Guest, I advise you not to go!"
