The other party seemed to be deliberately holding his breath.

Mo Ying suddenly felt a little complicated and said helplessly: "Is there anyone inside? We just happened to pass by and wanted to stay overnight..."

The people inside seemed to gasp quietly.

Then there was a burst of bustling movement.

It seemed that the two had an argument.

Immediately after—

"Passers-by?"

A man inside suddenly raised his voice and asked.

"Yes, this brother, if you can do something convenient, the reward will be easy."

The voice just fell-

It was quiet inside for a moment.

After a while, finally——

"brush!"

The door was opened a small crack.

The man inside was hiding behind the door, with only half of his body exposed, and said softly: "Then come in."

"Thank you."

Mo Ying thanked him, then took a step away to let Ling Fengshuo enter the room first.

The two walked in the door and discovered that there was another person in the room.

He was also a young man, looking at them warily.

The two people who let them in smiled and introduced, "You two, this is my younger brother: "Wan Qingyan, my name is Wan Qingshan."

"Good name."

Mo Ying smiled and did not take the initiative to introduce himself, but glanced at Wan Qingyan with sharp eyes.

Wan Qingyan looked at the two of them with the same vigilance.

The atmosphere is a little stiff.

Wan Qingshan also seemed a little embarrassed. He was silent for a while, and then he greeted with a smile: "Oh, you two must be thirsty on your way. I'll get you some water!"

As he spoke, he gave Wan Qingyan another hand and whispered: "Why are you so stern? These two look like ordinary people, so I said that if the horse bandits really come to sweep away, they must have taken them with them." How could he still knock on the door when the knife came in?"

Wan Qingyan didn't answer, but his expression was still a bit stubborn.

Presumably there was an argument at the door that Mo Ying heard just now, and it was the two brothers arguing about whether to open the door or not.

It can be seen from this that Wan Qingshan is kind-hearted.

Soon, two bowls of hot water were served.

The house is not big, and the things in it are a bit old.

The bowl containing water had been used for an unknown period of time, and there was a layer of light-colored dirt on the bottom of the bowl.

Ling Fengshuo lowered his eyes and glanced, then withdrew his gaze and said in a deep voice: "I just heard my brother mention the horse bandits, can you tell me in detail?"

He had an ordinary appearance in disguise, but when he opened his mouth, there was an aura of being in a high position and not angry, which made Wan Qingshan startled.

Mo Ying hurriedly smiled and smoothed things over and said: "Yes, brother, please tell us, we have heard a lot of rumors along the way, and we have also found many places to stay, but no one dared to open the door. , I came here out of desperation.”

"I see……"

Compared with Ling Fengshuo, Mo Ying naturally feels much more like a spring breeze.

Wan Qingshan smiled and then said: "This matter has been going on for more than a year. I don't know where the gang of bandits came from. They appear and disappear. No one knows when they will appear and what will happen next time. After a while, I heard that General Chen over at the camp also thought of a way, but no one knew why, and they haven't caught it yet. No, the people in this area are on tenterhooks, and those who are capable have already moved. If you go to Luoyan City, if you don’t have it, you’ll do this to us and stay here..."

"Then the terrain here..."

"I know, it's not very safe, but it's nice to be hidden."

Wan Qingshan waved his hand: "To be honest, my brother and I had been guarding my sick mother before, otherwise we would have gone to Luoyan City early in the morning to find work. Some time ago, my mother passed away. The night my brother and I were about to leave, we heard that It seemed that there was a village on the road that was looted by horse bandits again, so I didn’t dare to leave. I moved my house here with a few neighbors, thinking of hiding for a while..."

"It's not necessarily safe here."

Wan Qingyan, who had been silent all this time, suddenly interrupted and said angrily: "How long can I hide? I'm always lucky to have a good day. Although this place is hidden, it doesn't mean that those horse bandits will definitely not be found..."

"Bah, bah, bah! What nonsense are you talking about!"

Wan Qingshan obviously felt a little taboo about this, so he hurriedly said: "Those troublemakers only target the bigger villages. Not to mention that our families are in a hidden location and have little money to make, so they look down on us."

"cut……"

Wan Qingyan snorted lightly and stopped talking. He seemed to be quite dissatisfied with Wan Qingshan's decision to stay here to avoid the limelight.

Listening to the exchange between the two brothers, Mo Ying and Ling Fengshuo looked at each other.

Then he saw that Wan Qingshan was already planning to turn around and make the bed.

He said a little apologetically: "I'm sorry, you two, our families don't light the lights at night, so there are no activities to pass the time. If you are tired, you can go to bed early..."

"It's work."

Mo Ying responded lightly.

Since it has been said that they are passers-by, it is naturally difficult to change it now.

I had to make do with one night again.

The two of them have strong night market skills, so they can see the layout of the house clearly.

Wan Qingshan was used to walking around in his own home and wouldn't bump into each other even with his eyes closed, so he moved very quickly and quickly made a small bed for the two of them.

"This is my bed. You two have to squeeze in together tonight. Qingyan and I can sleep together."

Wan Qingyan said nothing and took the initiative to walk towards the bed.

Mo Ying turned slightly sideways and whispered to Ling Fengshuo: "Your Majesty, please go to bed and rest, subordinate..."

He hasn't finished speaking yet.

at this time--

Suddenly, I heard the sound of horse hooves coming from far away outside the door!

The terrain here is narrow, so the sound was like thunder. Almost in an instant, it was like a muffled thunder, rumbling towards these houses!

"what sound!"

Wan Qingshan was so frightened that he trembled all over.

Wan Qingyan also froze in place, staring at the door with wide eyes.

Immediately after—

"Hey, how many are hidden here?"

A rough and powerful voice fell on several people's ears.

Wan Qingyan dug his hands into the bed and murmured: "Brother, it can't be... a horse bandit..."

Wan Qingshan was stunned. Before he could answer, he heard another sentence from outside: "Search for me!"

next moment--

"boom!"

"what!!"

The sound of kicking the door and the old man's exclamation sounded at the same time!

"It's Aunt Wu!"

Wan Qingshan finally came to his senses, his face turned pale.

Before he could finish worrying about others, his own door was kicked open with a bang!

Three or five horse bandits filed in holding torches, lighting up the entire small room!

Then I have to arrest a few people in the house!

Mo Ying's hand holding the sword tightened slightly, and just when he was about to move——

His wrist was touched lightly.

He paused and looked at Ling Fengshuo.

It’s just a look—

"be honest!"

The two of them were already held captive by the horse bandits behind them.
