Five rooms, that's enough. The boss can just set up a camp for us on the land outside. Also, can we provide food? The young man took out a large ingot of silver and smiled at the boss.

Seeing the money, the boss's eyes suddenly widened and he nodded hurriedly, then walked into the inn and shouted: Zhuzhu! A guest is here!

Hey! Here we come! Zhu Zhu put the cloth towel on his shoulders, responded and walked out. When he saw a group of people in the dark outside, he was stunned, then turned around and said: Boss, we don't have that much food!

Before he finished speaking, a pile of deer, pheasant, rabbit, black deer and other game were thrown in front of him.

Just lend us the stove. A big man patted him on the shoulder and said with a smile.

Zhu Zhu swallowed his saliva, looked at the group of men in black suits, all of whom were extremely tough, and nodded knowingly.

Man, where is the room? A man with extremely bright and beautiful eyes walked up and asked.

Here, follow me, follow me. Zhuzi turned sideways and led the way inside, and went up to the second floor of the inn. After opening the door of the room, he saw a group of people walking into the hall downstairs. First there were two teenagers, and one She was extremely beautiful but had an expressionless face. She was a very tall man with a solemn look on his upright features. He was followed by a man who was more beautiful than the woman. He helped a woman with a curtain come in, feeling in her heart. He was stunned for a moment, guessing that this person from an unknown big family actually brought so many guards, but he had to be careful. These people had an iron-blooded aura, and they were not easy to deal with.

Brother, can you boil some hot water? After those people entered the upper room, the man with extremely beautiful eyes came out and asked.

Okay, there's hot water in the kitchen, I'll pick it up right now. Zhu Zhu nodded quickly and responded.

No, you lead the way and we go. The man said with a slight smile.

Zhuzhu responded and took the man down. When he went to the kitchen at the back, he glanced outside the inn and saw those men in black starting to set up tents on the flat ground outside the inn. Their skillful techniques looked like veterans, and he didn't realize it. He asked, Where are you going, sir? The Jinghu Road is not safe.

Is Guangnan Road safe? the man asked with a slight smile.

Our land, the Central Plains people always say that we are a barbaric land. Now look, they have made a mess, but we are still living here peacefully. Zhu Zhu said with a smile, and then pointed to the kitchen in the back that was specially used to heat hot water. He turned to the stove and said, The hot water is right here. Why don't you go take a look and eat?

The man threw a piece of silver to him and said, Just lend us the stove and we can make it ourselves.

When the aristocratic family comes out, they always take care of their mothers-in-law and servants, and they cook their own food. Zhuzi has seen him a few times, so he is not very surprised. He only showed surprise when he saw that the person working on the stove was actually a blond outsider. Colorful, he asked, Are you from the Xie family in Guangzhou?

Several people in the kitchen glanced at him, and the man smiled and asked, Why do you say that?

Haha, Zhuzi touched his head and laughed twice, and said, This little brother is an outsider, right? Apart from the Xie family in Guangzhou, are there any other families that can manipulate outsiders?

Really? The man's smile became even stronger and he said, The Xie family's reputation is really great.

That's right, who doesn't know the Xie family on Guangnan Road? I heard that in Duanzhou and Huizhou, Guangzhou, people only know about the Xie family but not about the Tian family. Zhu Zhu smiled and then touched the man with his elbow. Asked: The salary you get at Xie's family is high, right?

Haha. The man smiled without answering and asked, Do you have any special dishes here?

Brother Thirteen! Before Zhuzi could answer, he saw the tall young man with good features coming in a hurry. When he saw Zhuzi, he asked, Man, are there any stone clams?

Ah? Zhu Zhu was stunned for a moment, and then said: Ah, stone clams, how do you know? I was just about to tell this little brother that this is the specialty of our place. The meat is tender and delicious. However, the fresh meat we have here is Sold out.”

Where can I catch it? The boy glanced at the kitchen and asked.

This is not easy to catch. You have to be in the running water of mountain streams and gullies in the old forest. Only come out when it is almost dark. Zhuzi touched his head and said.

The young man looked at the sky and asked, Which way can we go to the mountain stream and ravine?

It's a bit far away from us. You have to go over the ridge, that's over there. If you go down there, there's no way over there. It's dangerous! Before Zhuzi could finish speaking, he saw the young man looking for two net bags from the kitchen. Then, together with the extremely beautiful young man who had been standing behind, they disappeared in the blink of an eye.

I'll make the soup first. Ye Fei picked a lot of mushrooms. Hearing that the blond boy actually spoke the standard Da Zhou dialect, Zhu Zhu's eyes widened in surprise. It was indeed the Xie family! I have long heard that the Xie family's private soldiers are very powerful, and they are very good at killing each other. It is indeed true, but I don't know who that woman is? Is it the eldest young master’s concubine or the eldest master Xie’s concubine?

Brother, go about your business. After being patted on the shoulder by the man, Zhuzi came back to his senses and nodded in agreement.

Walking back to the lobby, he saw the guests in the lobby looking outside constantly, so he smiled and said, Okay, stop looking, I'm from the Xie family.

Is it the Xie family? Why are the Xie family people here?

Don't you know this? Since the big storm nine years ago sank all the Xie family's boats, the Xie family has not been able to get up for many years. However, they are rich and have not gone to sea. They are in Huizhou, Guangzhou. I bought tracts of land, had my own private soldiers, and did well in trade with the Central Plains, and now I am the local emperor over there.

But this doesn't look like the Xie family's caravan, does it?

Perhaps they are Uncle Xie's family members? Do you know how many wives and concubines Uncle Xie has? When we came back, they were marrying their twenty-ninth concubine.

Okay, let's go to bed after dinner, and don't mind other people's business.

There were three people in Tsing Yi sitting in the corner of the lobby. They frowned when they heard the discussion in the lobby. The young man on the left pulled the chair a little and asked the middle-aged man in the middle: People from the Xie family are here to do this at this time. What? Could it be that it is not good for the prince?

Don't talk nonsense. The Xie family and the prince have always kept their peace. The middle-aged man slowly turned the teacup in his hand and said, I don't think it's like the Xie family. The Xie family is so polite. If Xie's family is really polite, Family, we won’t have any space to eat here.”

That's right, they are so arrogant that they kicked everyone out of this inn and won't camp outside. The young man on the right said.

Whose family is that? Who else on Guangnan Road has such strength? the young man asked excitedly.

I'm afraid they are not from Guangnan Road, but came from the north. The middle-aged man frowned and thought for a moment, then whispered: Is it true that Mr. Zhu said that the people over there are worried about the prince?

The table fell silent for a moment, and the young man swung his butt and said anxiously: Then let's go back and report to the county prince as soon as possible?

Don't be impulsive. The first priority is to explore the reality of the Central Plains first, the young man on the right said: It seems that they don't have any ill intentions. Maybe they just came here to escape.

If you are just escaping, you won't take only one female family member with you. This group of people is weird.

Actually, I think Mr. Zhu is right. If a king has no moral principles, then a virtuous person will naturally live there. If the king is willing to raise the banner, we Yingzhou also has 50,000 troops. Even if we can't conquer the world, we can still conquer the world. This Guangnan Road Jianguo, it's a pity that the county king just didn't listen and even locked up Mr. Zhu. The young man sighed in a low voice.

Be careful what you say! the middle-aged man shouted in a low voice, then raised his head and looked around, and said, What nonsense are you talking about? Go back to your room.

The three of them threw some coins on the table and went upstairs. Not long after, someone walked out of the darkness in the corner, touched his chin, and went to the kitchen in the back.

Yan Qi was applying medicine to Ling Qingyu's buttocks. After entering Chenzhou, they abandoned the carriage in order to rush on the road. It was a mountainous road all the way. Although he was holding him and riding together, Ling Qingyu's buttocks were still scratched and white and tender. The large red area above is extremely conspicuous.

Even now, she still remained silent all day. In the past, she would act coquettishly with Yan San if she felt slightly unwell. After Yan San's death, she became much more tolerant. This time, she was even more tolerant. Needless to say, she and Ye Shi He never complained all the way, which made Yan Qi's heart ache. Although he knew that she didn't want to trouble them and was worried about his health, in his heart, Yan Qi really hoped that she could be like him. Yan San treated him like that, being coquettish and wanton without caring about anything.

Master Qi, Ying Thirteen came in with a bucket of hot water, closed the door, handed the bucket to Ye Fei, walked into the inner room, and said, Mr. Zhu has been locked up by Prince Ying'an.

What? Ling Qingyu, who was half asleep, stood up and said, Where did the news come from?

Someone from Prince Ying'an just said it below. Ying Qi heard it. Ying Thirteen said: Do you want to arrest him for interrogation?

Yeah. Ling Qingyu nodded, and Ying Thirteen turned around and walked out.

They basically bypassed the warring areas along the way. Even if they encountered sporadic troops and there were many of them, they would kill them directly. Although Yan Qi would let her fall asleep in advance every time like this, Ling Qingyu still felt Clearly, now we have arrived at Guangnan Road. It is a vast area with sparsely populated areas. As long as it is not blocked by others, there should be no danger. Apart from Guangzhou, there is also the Xie family.

The sun on the mountain set early and entered dusk, and the sky darkened very quickly. Ye Shi moved his hand, nailed a stone clam with his long sword, threw it into the net bag on the side, then looked at the number inside, and said : Ye Po, that's enough.

Ye Po also grabbed one in his hand and snatched it over. He looked at the large group of rock clams in the net bag and nodded: Well, let's go back. He closed the net bag and held it in his hand, Ye Po said: Brother Eleven, How many levels are your skills at? For a year, he practiced hard and finally broke through to the seventh level. He thought that he and Ye Shiyi should be closer, but when he saw him take action, he realized that the gap between them was still very large. Da, it can be said that Ye Shiyi has made rapid progress this year. Not only is his internal strength strong, but his moves have also eliminated any unnecessary movements. They are simple and sharp, killing with one strike. This is an assassin's technique that can only be developed through countless bloody fights. , Now Ye Shiyi is almost as decisive and cold as Yan San.

At some point, we should be able to hit the eighth floor. Ye Shiyi said calmly. After resting for two days at Funiu Mountain, his internal energy was indeed abundant again, and he reached a small level, and his skill improved again. But Ye Po still impressed him. He knew in his heart that without the snake pill, he might not be able to achieve what Ye Po has achieved now.

The two of them speeded up and rushed towards the inn. When the lights of the inn on the top of the mountain were faintly visible, Ye Shiyi stopped, then turned into the dense forest on the side, looked at the three people left on the ground, and asked His eyes looked at Ying Thirteen.

Just in time, ask them what Prince Ying'an did to Mr. Zhu? Ying Thirteen clapped his hands, took two steps back and smiled.

Ye Po glanced at it and rushed directly to the mountain. Ye Shiyi not only improved his martial arts, but also his interrogation skills. They had never heard of those methods before. According to Ye Shiyi, those were Party items. It is specially used to interrogate people, so I don’t know how he learned such **** methods.

After handing the stone clam to Sum in the kitchen and watching the cook demonstrate how to kill one, when Ye Po returned to the guest room, Ye Shiyi had already begun to talk about the information he took out from the three people's mouths.

Zhu Weili arrived in Yingzhou from King Cheng in April. He was hired by King Ying'an as the prince's teacher. After King Cheng's uprising, he often discussed current affairs with Zhu Weili. In early September, King Cheng attacked Changsha. After the news that the city was blocked reached the prince's palace, the prince placed Zhu Weili under house arrest.

We need to rescue Mr. Zhu. Ling Qingyu lay on the bed and said. Although he had applied medicine on his butt, the pain was still unbearable. As expected, riding a horse and walking on mountain roads is not what a woman should do.

I'll go. Ye Shiyi looked at Yan Qi and said. Zhu Weili had Lu Yao by his side, so his life should not be in danger. It was probably because Zhu Weili wanted to persuade Prince Ying'an again that he refused to leave.

Well, tell him that the master is going to Guangzhou to board the ship and ask him to come and meet him. Yan Qi nodded.

Ye Shiyi responded, glanced at Ling Qingyu, and turned around to leave. Yan Qi said: Don't worry, we have to pass through Yingzhou, and you can go after we get down the mountain.

Yes! Ye Shiyi responded, then turned and walked out the door.

I'm afraid Mr. Zhu still wants to persuade Prince Ying'an again. Yan Qi turned around and said.

If you still don't want to move under this situation, there is no need to persuade anymore, just let current events force you. Ling Qingyu moved and said. Not only Cheng Jia, but also Zhu Weili did not expect that things would change so quickly. Some things are not predictable by humans, and it is hard to go against God's will.

At dawn the next day, people in the inn began to prepare to leave. There was still a long distance from here to the next inn, and it would take a day's journey before there was a place to rest.

There was a lot of noise in the lobby. Breakfast was being eaten here, and vehicles and cavalry were preparing to set off outside.

The camp of hundreds of people outside has been packed up, but the men in black don't look like they are leaving soon. They are sitting or leaning leisurely eating.

Brother, it's not easy to walk this way, and it's a long way to the next station. I'd like to tell your host that we should leave early. The boss kindly reminded the cute boy with his narrow eyes.

Xie Sanlang looked up at the room upstairs and said with a smile: Nothing, let's go quickly and don't delay anything. If your stove is empty, why don't you give it to us first?

Okay, you can use it. The boss knocked on the hookah pipe and smiled. This team of people were very well-behaved when camping outside. They set up a campfire to cook. What they cooked in the inn kitchen was just for the people in the room upstairs. I heard from Zhu Zhu that they prepared everything from water to all the ingredients themselves. , the food was cooked by those people, and even the rock clams were caught by them themselves. I am afraid these people are really wealthy people from the north.

Xie Sanlang went to the kitchen at the back and saw Sumu already making noodles, so he said, Make more today. I'm afraid there won't be anything to eat on the way, and it won't be easy to make a fire.

Sum hummed, and then said to him: You can also help me, make more steamed buns, and bring some to Brother Wang and the others.

Seeing Sumu moving around the kitchen so fast and nimble that only an afterimage was left, Xie Sanlang raised his forehead and sighed: Sum, are you planning to become a cook in the future?

No way? Sum kept moving and threw the kitchen knife to Xie Sanlang.

Xie Sanlang accepted his fate and chopped the meat into minced meat, and said: You said, we are not personal guards in the first place? Ah? It turned out that it was better for you, and you just squatted in the kitchen. Now Ye Po is almost taking our position.

Ye Po's martial arts skills are much better than ours. It's not safe outside now. He and Shi Yi are more suitable than us. Sum put the wrapped buns on the steamer and started making the second round.

Sumu, are you really willing?

What do you want to say? Sum took Xie Sanlang's minced meat and mixed the stuffing, and said, We are the master's servants. We don't have to be willing to do anything. We just do whatever the master needs us to do.

Sumu, to be honest, do you really only regard her as your master?

Sum's face was covered with flour, and the morning sun shone in from outside the door, making his smile so bright that people dared not look directly at it.

Whether it's the master or whoever she is, she is the only one in my heart. Does it matter who she is? Sum said with a smile.

Xie Sanlang was choked by what he said, and then murmured to himself: I really can't tell you, fool!

It was a long time after everyone else in the inn had left, that the boss saw the people in the guest room coming out. They were not walking out, but being carried out.

Isn't this not good? Looking at the boss's surprised expression, Ling Qingyu whispered in Yan Qi's ear.

What's wrong? Yan Qi made the boss change direction with a sharp glance.

The guards outside had already packed up and prepared food for the road. When he saw Yan Qi carrying Ling Qingyu out, Wang Zuo asked, What's wrong with the master?

You ride horses, and we'll walk down. Yan Qi replied casually, then lifted Ling Qingyu up a little, and led the way down the mountain road.

Wang Zuo responded with a smile, and led more than a hundred people to ride down to clear the way. Ye Po and Ye Shiyi followed one after another without riding horses, and the empty horse was held by the people behind.

The sky has just dawned, the scenery in the mountains is beautiful, the air is fresh, and there are daisies of various colors blooming on both sides.

Ling Qingyu touched Yan Qi's head and said worriedly: How about changing it to Thirteen?

Yan Qi chuckled lightly, glanced at her sideways, with a teasing look in his eyes, and said with a smile, Am I so useless?

Am I worried about your heart?

Don't worry, with you on my back, my heart will be fine.
