Seventy-five, reunion after a long absence (3)

Hurry along the avenue, walk another twenty or thirty miles, and the sky is getting late. Qin Chuan covered half of his face with a big straw hat given by Wei Ba, carried a horsewhip, and drove the mule cart slowly, feeling very comfortable.

After walking for a few miles, I saw that there were few pedestrians on the road, and then not far away to the boundary of Xiao County, and Xuzhou was not far away. Pondering: "Along the way, I asked everywhere, but there was no news of the second brother and Miss Lu. It seems that the only way to talk about it is to go back to the Great Wind Castle first!"

He remembered that there were two charming women in red makeup sitting in the mule cart he was driving, and he was both happy and proud, and thought: "If there are no more life-and-death grievances and disputes in the rivers and lakes, and Lan Mei will also return to me, I will specially customize a big car for four people." What a joy in life is it for me to be a chauffeur for my three younger sisters, and to take them to the ends of the earth and wander around?"

When I was thinking about myself and getting drunk, I suddenly heard the sound of hooves behind me and the neighing of people and horses. He turned around, but saw that the dust was rising, and pedestrians dodged to the side of the road, and several horses rushed to the road.

Qin Chuan said in his heart: "These people are in such a hurry, there must be something urgent at home!" Immediately the mule cart also rushed to the side of the road to give way.

The horses came so fast that they passed by in an instant. Qin Chuan tilted his head slightly, and in a blink of an eye, he saw that the person in front was a lean man in yellow, with a slightly hooked nose and a very ugly appearance. The latter were men and women, a total of nine. It's just that everyone carries the burden of the sword, and the strength is over, and they all look like practitioners who know martial arts.

After the nine of them had gone far, Qin Chuanwu was thoughtful, and a vague thought rose in his heart, but he couldn't remember anything wrong for a while.

Suddenly, Yi Wanyu's voice sounded in the carriage behind: "Brother Chuan, the thin man at the front, we have seen it in Songyun Village." Do you remember?"

Qin Chuan was stunned for a moment, and then realized: "I see." I said, why do you think it's a little weird?" I remembered that when I was hanging my filial piety in Songyunzhuang, my second brother Qin Hai had talked to the man in yellow. This person is the lone snitch of Guiyang Mansion, the thief Qi Si who is known as the "eight-armed golden cicada" on the rivers and lakes.

Qin Chuan asked, "Sister Yu, do you recognize it too?"

Yi Wanyu said: "I glanced through the car door in a hurry, and I didn't dare to be too sure. It's just a little strange, it's a well-known fact on the rivers and lakes that the 'eight-armed golden cicada' thief Qi Si has always been a loner and doesn't like to partner with people, so how can he walk with so many people at once? Is it just a coincidence?"

Qin Chuan suddenly raised his horsewhip in the air. Snapped twice, smacked twice on the mule's buttocks, and screamed, "Bastard, slut, damn it!" With a long hiss, he let go of his hooves and ran wildly.

Dolma lifted the curtain. Angry: "Qin Chuan." Who are you scolding with your mouth dirty? Why is it so ugly? My little sister and I haven't offended you!"

While controlling the mule, Qin Chuan shook his head again and again, and said loudly: "Don't get me wrong! When I heard Yumei say about 'Songyunzhuang', I suddenly remembered that there were two women among the nine people just now, and one of them looked very much like the young lady of Songyunzhuang!"

He said so. Yi Wanyu was also taken aback and exclaimed, "Ah, when you say that, I also remember! It's her, but her hair and face have changed a lot. Her mount was in the middle of the nine, and it hurried by, so I didn't notice it. ”

Qin Chuan remembered that the young lady had killed her in-laws and committed adultery with Liandong, and that in the inn in Luoyang that day, she had broken up with the plan of diverting the tiger from the mountain and taking her and her husband and wife away, and thought: "Shicai has never noticed whether there has been a big brother Fengchun among the nine people. It's just that if she knew that her wife was an undercover agent sent to Songyunzhuang by the Heavenly Dao Alliance, and killed her parents, she would definitely not let her go. ”

He was anxious to catch up with the whereabouts of the nine, and he was so quick that he drove the mule cart as if it were flying.

At the time of the unitary card, the mule cart arrived in the city of Dexiao County. Although the county seat of Naxiao is not very large, there are many shops everywhere, the streets are full of traffic, and people come and go, and for a moment and a half, where have he seen the whereabouts of the young lady, Qi Si, and others? He drove all over the streets and alleys, but found nothing.

He and Zhuoma and Yi Wanyu combined, since they had no clue for the time being, and there was no news of Qin Hai and Lu Qiuniang, they had to go to the store to rest first.

According to Yi Wanyu's words, he threw himself into the inn where the two stayed when they passed through Xiao County last time.

Yi Wanyu and Zhuoma's two daughters rushed to the front lobby to prepare wine and food. Qin Chuan and Yi Wanyu had secretly discussed that as a Tibetan, Dolma should avoid eating horse, donkey and dog meat according to custom, so when he went to the kitchen to order food, he should pay more attention.

The second daughter thought that the lobby was too noisy, so she ordered her shop companion to put a table of wine and food in Qinchuan's room. Qin Chuan has to talk to the two confidants, he is really drunk, fluttering, drunk without drinking, not to mention that there is more wine in hand?

Under the red candle, but seeing the natural beauty of the two daughters' complexions, Zhuoma is bright and beautiful and difficult to hide her delicate and innocent state, Wanyu is more clever and intelligent in her delicate and pretty, and Shuangshu is in front, like flowers and jade, how not to make Qin Chuan fascinated and shaken his mind?

He drank a lot of money, and after a day of driving a mule cart, he was exhausted, and after a short time, he fell drunk.

Qin Chuan slept until midnight, woke up, and immediately turned over and got out of bed. He walked to the table, took out the fire knife and flint, lit the candle, and saw that the house had been cleaned up, and the teapot on the table was placed in a thick straw mattress, and he poured it into the teacup and drank it, only to feel that the tea was still warm. After thinking about it, he knew that the second daughter was sure that he would be thirsty after waking up, so he deliberately arranged it like this.

He drank a few glasses of water and went to bed again, but he couldn't fall asleep after tossing and turning. At that moment, he sat up again, his luck was adjusted, and he felt that his true qi was abundant, and there was no abnormality in the dantian, and his heart was settled, and it was expected that the medicinal power of the thousand-year-old ginseng had been exhausted.

So he sat cross-legged on the bed, practiced the exercises three times, and suddenly felt anxious, so he put on his clothes and went to the thatched house.

He untied his hands and went to the patio and looked up at the moon. The moon was in a semicircle this night, and the silver light poured down on the ground, and it was quiet in all directions, and there was no sound at all.

He thought to himself: "There are many inns in this Xiao County, if the young lady and her group of nine people stay overnight, I don't know which store they will go to? How can we find her? As long as we find this woman, we can find out the movements of Feng Chun and Mo Feixie and others!"

Just as he was thinking about it, he suddenly heard the faint sound of blades striking in the distance. In the quiet night, the sound drifted in the wind. Apparently at a great distance. In fact, this voice is so weak and so short that if you were to be a stranger, you would not be able to hear it clearly. It's just that Qin Chuan's ears are amazing, and he is standing outside the house by coincidence, and it is a tailwind, but it is difficult to hear clearly.

He was startled, and immediately jumped onto the roof, and listened attentively.

It was the middle of the night. It was the quiet of the night, he stood quietly on the roof of the inn, looking around, but where was there half a human trace?

He took up the "Quiet Listening to the Eight Directions" and listened intently for a long time. There is no sound, and the heart is very unwilling. There was clearly a fight just now. Why is there no movement at all?

I was feeling depressed, and suddenly I heard the sound of the wind in my clothes, and a slender figure swept closer, and it was clear in the moonlight that it was Zhuoma.

Qin Chuanqi said, "Why are you up?" Zhuoma smiled and said in a low voice, "Senior Sister Yi and I both slept in the room next to you. When you get up and drink water. I heard it!" Qin Chuan was stunned, and secretly praised in his heart: "What a 'wedding dress magic skill' has turned Zhuoma into a top master!"

Zhuoma heard him whisper and heard the sound of fighting in the distance, and said, "I'll accompany you to take a look, maybe I can find some clues!" Qin Chuan said: "Sister Yu is fine, right?" Zhuoma said: "Little junior sister is sleeping soundly." Do you want me to wake her up?" Qin Chuan shook his head and said, "Let her sleep a little longer!

At the moment, the two of them performed light skills. Floated and galloped away in the direction from which the sound came. After Zhuoma was taught the "Wedding Dress Miracle" by his teacher Baimei, his light skills were also extremely clever, and he did not fall behind Qin Chuan.

After walking through the walls and alleys, I turned around for a long time, but I never heard any abnormal sounds.

The two stood side by side on the roof of a private house and did not move forward. On the side of Zhuoma's head, seeing Qin Chuan's face showing disappointment in the faint moonlight, he held his hand and said softly: "I think the person who fought has a difference between victory and defeat, and no longer fights, so there is no sound." Actually, it's nothing, and you don't have to take it personally. ”

Qin Chuan was interested, shook his head and sighed, "Forget it." Maybe I heard it wrong! Let's go back to the inn. Zhuoma smiled and said softly, "Take a walk with me." Qin Chuan grabbed her tender hand and nodded.

The two jumped out into the street, holding hands, and walked back along the same path, and after walking for a while, they suddenly heard the faint sound of a man and woman arguing in a house not far away. At the beginning, Qin Chuan only said whose family was the little two arguing at night, and he didn't care, but suddenly he heard a woman sneering twice, and screamed: "What do you think is the place of the Great Wind Castle? If you want to enter, you can go in, and if you want to get out, you can go in and try it yourself?" Hmph, as long as you can get out with your whole body, everyone will listen to you?"

The woman's voice was immature, apparently girlish, and most of the speakers were not more than fifteen or sixteen years old.

Qin Chuan was startled, so he stopped and turned his head, only to see Zhuoma raise his head slightly, his eyes closed slightly, and a snow-white face seemed to be full of intoxication, the wind blew his sleeves, slim and elegant, like a beautiful Gesang flower trembling slightly in the night breeze. Under the moonlight, when he saw this beauty, he couldn't help but feel a wave in his heart, and immediately lowered his head and kissed her on the red lips.

Zhuoma's body trembled, "Ah" exclaimed, hurriedly retreated, ashamed and anxious, and said: "Qin Chuan, you, you ......" Qin Chuan was stunned, scratched his scalp, and said: "Zhuoma, it wasn't you, you ...... just now" He wanted to say, "Didn't you let me kiss you?" but seeing her shy and complaining look, he stopped talking.

Zhuoma's face turned red, glanced at him, and said softly: "I, I smelled a smell of Tibetan incense just now, and I was carefully discerning." It is a famous incense used by us Tibetans, which is made of snow lotus, sandalwood, musk, aged incense, rhodiola, cloves and other Tibetan herbs mixed with precious herbs. I really can't imagine that in this Central Plains, you can smell this aroma!"

Qin Chuan secretly screamed, "Ashamed!" Knowing that he would be wrong again, Zhuoma was tasting Tibetan incense, but he thought she was waiting for him to kiss her, but now it was a big misunderstanding, a sudden beauty, and her behavior was frivolous, which was really embarrassing. So he lowered his head and said with a red face: "It's me who is reckless, I'm sorry!"

Seeing Qin Chuan's expression, Zhuoma groaned slightly, and understood that he was indeed misleading him. She thought of Shicai's kiss, her heart was hot, her face was flushed, she was not angry but happy, stretched out a snow-white and delicate little hand, gently held his hand, and chuckled: "Don't say I'm sorry." I, I don't blame you! You kissed me, and I was so happy. ”

Qin Chuan was held by her soft little hand, that is, his heart was hot, and he shouted, "Sister Zhuoma!" stretched out his arm, put his arm around her waist, lowered his head and kissed her gently on the cheek.

He was in a trance, when he suddenly heard the sound of wind in his clothes, and suddenly a figure in black suddenly appeared on a roof in front of him.

The figure was as light as a swallow, and after climbing up the roof, he jumped over the ridge without stopping, swept out of the high wall like a smoke, and entered an alley, and disappeared in a blink of an eye. (To be continued......)
