General

The team sent by the Li family to Shuilongzhai was on the road as scheduled, a carriage and a team of guards, it really wasn't a big show in Jiangnan where wealthy businessmen gathered.

After leaving the noisy market, the chariots and horses headed west along the small road in the south of the city. As the terrain got higher, the steep mountain road of Longtou Mountain slowly appeared in front of us.

Li Xuan took Lan Jing and two shadow guards to hide in the withered grass half a person's height by the side of the road. Seeing the carriage slowly approaching from a distance, he and Ling Feng looked at each other and nodded knowingly.

In order to avoid complications, the four of them have already made it easy, and Lan Jing also changed into an ordinary servant.

Originally Li Xuan wanted to stay with Lanjing and Qiu Yang to rest in the small courtyard together, but with the experience of last time, Lanjing hugged his arm tightly and refused to agree no matter what.In the end, after thinking about it, this small courtyard might not be a safe place without the three of them, so it would be better to bring Lan Jing with her to feel at ease.

In addition, there is another important reason, that is, whether Li Xuan or the two shadow guards, no matter how they are decorated, the body shape and temperament of a martial arts practitioner cannot be concealed. suspicious.But Lan Jing is different, that delicate and delicate body is paired with simple cloth clothes, it doesn't look like it will give people any pressure.

The car quickly arrived in front of him, Ning Yu silently nodded to Li Xuan, then hooked his hands to the subordinates lurking around, jumped up from the shadows by the roadside, and flew straight towards him.

Li Xuan glanced at Ling Feng, and saw that he was still guarding Lan Jing meticulously, so he also silently drew out the long sword from his waist, bypassing the huge rock where he was hiding and ruthlessly broke into the battlefield.

There was a sound of swords and swords, and there was a trace of blood in the air.Lan Jing crawled among the grass and looked into the distance through the withered leaves, and saw the red blood mist constantly blooming in the deserted mountain road accompanied by heart-piercing screams, which looked extremely terrifying.

The guards in Li's residence were mediocre, and within less than a cup of tea, there was only one guard captain fighting with Li Xuan in the blood all over the place, and the rest of them were all buried in Ning Yu's sharp long sword under.

Seeing that his brothers were all killed, the captain of the guard suddenly attacked Li Xuan like crazy, and headed straight for Li Xuan's gate of life.

Li Xuan greeted him with a sword without arrogance or rashness. Although he didn't gain much in a short period of time, as time passed, the other party's face full of anger finally showed a bit of fatigue. The extremely fierce movement gradually became sluggish.

Holding the long sword in her arms, Ning Yu passed through the corpses and got closer to Li Xuan, but she just looked forward indifferently, without any intention of helping.At this moment, Li Xuan's eyes were bright, with excitement that was rarely seen on weekdays, Ning Yu lightly pursed her lips, since the two of them were fighting happily, wouldn't it be a disappointment to meddle in it?

"Master, get up." Ling Feng half-kneeled up, raised his hand to hold Lan Jing's arm, Lan Jing raised his eyes to see that the battle in front of him was gradually stopping, then nodded lightly, and slowly crawled on the ground with his hands stand up.

The first line of victory and defeat is fleeting.Almost in a moment of astonishment, when he raised his head to look forward again, the captain of the guard had already fallen in front of Li Xuan covered in blood, with his hands covering his chest, panting heavily.

"Waist card." Li Xuan looked at him with downcast eyes, but his voice was bitingly cold.

The man frowned in pain, and looked at Li Xuan desperately with eyes full of unwillingness. While shaking his lips, he squeezed out a few words from between his teeth: "Who are you..."

"You don't deserve to know." Li Xuan suddenly swung his long sword, and chopped off his arm that was quietly stretched to his waist. With a scream, the exquisite waist card carved with emerald also rolled to the ground, in a deep red The green in the blood color is so dazzling, "I want to destroy it now, isn't it too late?!"

Li Xuan leaned over and picked up the emerald waist card, raised his hand and threw it to Ning Yu who was standing aside silently watching the show, and said with a sneer, "Go and clean it up, it's getting late, we should send him on his way."

Lifting the sharp blade lightly, it ruthlessly smashed into the man's heart. He stared at the cold light on the hilt of the sword with his eyes wide open, struggled fiercely for a few times in pain, finally loosened his whole body, and swallowed the last breath. Go in one go.

The light carriage traveled slowly along the mountain road again.

Lan Jing sat alone in the carriage, with Ning Yu as the driver, while Li Xuan and Ling Feng and several other subordinates pretended to be servants of the Li family and followed beside the carriage.The crowd continued to circle up the mountain, and gradually there were checkpoints stopping them from checking their waist badges at a certain distance along the narrow and steep mountain roads. They were really heavily guarded.

Li Xuan narrowed his eyes slightly, watching another bandit at the checkpoint gradually fall behind, but he was silently rejoicing in his heart, if they didn't have the badge of the Li family, they would have sneaked into Shuilongzhai to steal the account book without anyone knowing it , I'm afraid it will be even more difficult.

The gate of Shuilongzhai gradually appeared in front of my eyes, and a bandit leader took a few steps forward with a big knife in his hand, and raised his hand to block the carriageway: "Who is coming?"

"People from the Li family." Lan Jing lifted the curtain of the car again, and slowly handed out the emerald waist plate. After questioning him all the way, he was already familiar with it.

"Look at the eyes." The leader took the waist card casually, checked it over and over again, raised his eyebrows and looked at Lan Jing, with a somewhat cold question in his tone.

Li Xuan was standing in the line beside the car, seeing the other party's reaction, he put his hand on the hilt of his sword invisibly, frowned, and stared at the leader vigilantly.

"New here?" Unexpectedly, the man didn't mean to go into it, but shook his head alone, threw the waist card back into Lan Jing's hand, snorted and said with a sneer, "Butler Wu has become more and more bold recently. No matter what kind of cat or dog, dare to let it work in Shuilongzhai!"

Seeing this, Lan Jing didn't argue with him, but just pretended to be innocent and sat silently in the car. Since he said it was Butler Wu's fault, it was Butler Wu's fault~

"Okay, come in, come in..."

The leader beckoned helplessly, and the bandits behind him slowly moved away the horse-repelling fence and pushed open the heavy gate of the village.An older man followed closely in front of the crowd, waved to everyone, turned around and walked in.

……

The person who received them in Shuilongzhai seemed to be the second head of the cottage. He was tall and thick, and his voice was very loud.He was wearing a thick cotton military uniform, a fur cloak, sword eyebrows into his temples, and a beard all over his face. When he saw Lan Jing slowly stepping down from the carriage, he was slightly taken aback for a moment, and then went up to him with a big laugh. .

"I just said that the Li family will not randomly send a stranger to pick up money. You must be the new sister-in-law?! I am the second head of Shuilongzhai, Chen Yulong!" But what she said made Lan Jing stunned in place.

New sister-in-law? ?

Is he talking about Li Shouhong's newly married concubine? !

Although male wives and male concubines are common in Longxiao country, but from this point of view, they don't even know whether Li Shouhong is marrying a man or a woman...

Just don't do anything, just admit it!

Although Lan Jing changed his face, his appearance was still pretty and pleasant. He calmed down a little bit, tried to put on a charming look, and said to Chen Yulong with a low smile: "You are welcome, my master asked me to come To tell you the truth about this errand, it’s because the money this time was promised to a concubine, and the concubine couldn’t rest assured, so she came and followed her personally, I hope that the second-in-charge will be no wonder~”

Lan Jing was holding her throat in the front and was working hard, while Li Xuan's face in the back was instantly darkened, his fingers were hanging down by his side and tightly clenched into his palms, in that posture, he wished to go up and cover his nonsense mouth.

Ling Feng glanced sideways at Li Xuan's appearance at this moment, lowered his head quietly, but a wicked smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"Ah, that's how it is!" Chen Yulong obviously had a rough mind, and was fooled by Lan Jing in a few words. He silently pulled the beard on his chin, and suddenly realized, "Don't worry, sister-in-law, she will definitely be fine." You will not be missing."

Then he waved his hand and ordered loudly to the personal guard beside him: "Go, go to the bank and seal 1000 taels of silver and send it to sister-in-law's carriage!"

"Yes."

The guard clasped his fists, looked up and saw Lan Jing raised his chin slightly at Ling Feng, and also ordered in a low voice: "Go and help."

Ling Feng left the team slowly, prostrating and followed out.Chen Yulong thought that Lan Jing was still worried, so he specially ordered someone to supervise, so he couldn't stop him, so he just laughed and led everyone into the gate of the main hall in front of him.

As expected of a bandit's territory, the whole room has a rough taste. The wooden tables and chairs are simple and atmospheric. In the brightly lit hall, there are delicious food and wine on the table, and various animal skins on the chairs.

Lan Jing led Li Xuan and Ning Yu into the palace gate, and the rest of his subordinates were left in the courtyard. When he slowly lifted up the hem of his clothes and sat on the top guest seat, the two of them looked stern Standing behind him with his hands behind his back, motionless like two magnificent Buddhas.

Chen Yulong looked at the two people behind Lan Jing, and narrowed his eyes slightly.These two people's internal strength is bottomless, they are definitely not ordinary servants, but after thinking about it again, I heard that this new sister-in-law is very favored in the Li family, if Li Shouhong paid a lot of money to hire two masters to protect her, it is probably reasonable, right?

After going round and round in his mind for several times, Chen Yulong finally picked up the wine glass on the table, cupped his hands to Lan Jing and said, "Sister-in-law, please!"

Lan Jing was not polite either, she raised her glass in respect to him, then raised her head and drank it all in one gulp.

"Good drinking capacity!" Seeing him drinking happily, Chen Yulong felt even happier, pulled a chicken leg and pointed to the subordinates beside him, "I caught that singing girl a few days ago, and asked him to come over and play a ditty for you." Sister-in-law and brothers help out!"

"Yes." The subordinate replied in a rough voice, turned around and walked out the door. Lan Jing also unceremoniously picked up a piece of sauced beef and chewed it slowly in her mouth, without any intention of being polite.Anyway, the longer it dragged on, the more time Ling Feng would have. It didn't matter whether he called Yingge or Yanwu, anyway, he was always in no hurry.

……

Ling Feng followed the guards for an unknown amount of time in the village, and finally arrived at the foot of a certain mountain. Between the bare mountain walls in winter, a cave that was guarded by heavy soldiers sneaked into view. .

This guard seemed to have a high position. When a group of bandits guarding the gate saw him from a distance, they clasped their fists and saluted him, and made way for him without asking.The man continued on without stopping, while Ling Feng silently looked around and followed him quickly into the cave.

Three steps, one post, five steps and one sentry, the bank is really well guarded.Ling Feng frowned slightly, but he was secretly thinking in his heart, if he had to fight this person, how would he get out of his body in a while.

The further you walked in, the darker the light became. A metal lamp holder was fixed every ten steps on the uneven wall of the cave, and the burning torch was firmly fixed in it.

Passing through a long passage, the copper gate gradually appeared in the swaying firelight. The exquisite carvings were intricate and gorgeous, and each texture reflected a faint chill under the firelight.

The guard glanced back at Ling Feng, and then carefully unwrapped a bronze waist card from his waist, and stuffed it into the long and narrow hole in the middle of the gate.With the sound of "rumbling" mechanism running, the thick copper door slowly receded towards the stone wall beside it.

Lock it!

Ling Feng secretly clicked his tongue twice in his heart, now even the bandit den can use such advanced things? !

"Don't fumble around after you come in. The things here are very valuable. If you break something that shouldn't be touched, be careful and walk around!" The man wanted to go in, but he stopped in his tracks. Looking back at Ling Feng, he said in a deep voice, even his tone was full of threats.

"Oh, good!" Ling Feng pretended to be obedient and ignorant, and nodded hurriedly.But for some reason, his words always have the feeling that there is no silver 300 taels here?
