flapping wings

When Qi Ping woke up, he felt that his head was groggy, and his eyes were completely dark, and he couldn't even see a little light.

He raised his arm to press his temple, and with a bang, he realized that an iron chain as thick as two fingers was bound on his wrist, but the other end of the chain was empty, like a useless decoration.

He sat up with his body propped up, and amidst the rattling sound of the chains, he bent down and touched it. It turned out that there was a shackle on his ankle.

Qi Ping strode forward with difficulty and searched around carefully for a moment. It was obvious that his sword had been taken away.

He looked at the top of his head in confusion, unable to judge how long he had been in a coma, where he was taken now, and what he should do.

Should he yell loudly to negotiate with those people or play dead and wait for Mu Xiaoque to save him.

He covered his head with a headache, Mu Xiaoque didn't even know where he had gone, how could he come to rescue him.

Shaking the chain on his feet lightly, amidst the rattling noise, Qi Ping carefully discerned the movement outside, as if there was no one there.

"Is anyone there?" Qi Ping yelled weakly: "Since you caught me, why don't you come down and talk about it? I'll tell you what you want to know."

There was still no movement outside, Qi Ping exhaled, taking advantage of this time, he turned around in the whole space.

Surrounded by earth walls, it doesn't look like a place dedicated to shutting down people.

When he came to the bottom of the last wall, his feet suddenly slipped, and he fell to the ground. Regardless of the pain in his buttocks, he touched there with his hands, and found a rotten vegetable leaf.

He couldn't help being a little excited, this is a vegetable cellar, if he guessed right, then it is very likely that he has not been transferred yet, is there no time, or is there another plan?

attempt!Qi Ping stood up suddenly, and immediately thought of the worst possibility.

What if the person who arrested him didn't come for himself?Otherwise why not take him away immediately?Was he baiting someone?

...............

Mu Xiaoque held the red cloth tightly, now he can't count on anyone, Zhengdao has no reason or affection to help him.

His own people took root in Yunhe City with great difficulty and established an intelligence network. If it is exposed at this time, all efforts will be in vain.

Not daring to waste any more time, Mu Xiaoque turned around and jumped out of the window. Now even if he knew it was a trap, he had to go for it.

He took a shortcut all the way, took a small path, in order not to let people find out his whereabouts, he didn't even go through the city gate, found an empty corner and jumped over the wall.

"Brother Que? Is that you?" Halfway through the journey, a gentle voice suddenly sounded behind him.

Mu Xiaoque paused, feeling anxious, but at this moment she had to force herself to stop.

He stabilized his steps and turned back, a man and a woman were walking towards here with the glaring sunlight on their backs.

Mu Xiaoque narrowed her eyes slightly and looked carefully, who else could it be if it wasn't Shen Er and Zhang Rumeng?

The fire at Beishan Inn had been extinguished for more than half a month, and now we finally saw two more survivors.

Coming closer, I saw Zhang Rumeng wearing a pink dress with a blue pendant hanging around his waist, but there was only one knot left, with tassels hanging underneath, and something in the middle should be missing.

Shen Er was still wrapped in sackcloth, and when the two came together, they were more like master and servant than husband and wife.

From the outside, these two people were luckier than Xiaobao, and they didn't even have a trace on their bodies.

Zhang Rumeng walked up and glanced at Mu Xiaoque, "I thought I was wrong. After the Beishan Incident, I thought only my second brother and I survived."

Afterwards, with tenderness and sadness in her eyes, she asked, "Did the Seventh Brother not escape?"

"Xiaoqi and I didn't experience that fire for some reason, and I didn't expect that there would be people alive after that," Mu Xiaoque twirled a copper coin back and forth with her fingertips, so fast that there was almost an afterimage.

After he finished speaking, he glanced at the sky again. The sun was going west, and it was past noon.

"It was those two Taishan sect disciples who saved us," Zhang Rumeng's eyes suddenly shed a line of tears, and she quickly raised her sleeve to wipe them away: "They were trapped inside and couldn't get out."

With a click, the copper coin flew out from Mu Xiaoque's fingertips and landed on the ground. He moved his stiff fingers, and couldn't help frowning amidst the crying.

He looked at the dazzling sun again, and always felt that the position of the sun had moved down again. He rubbed his fingertips unconsciously on his side, and a drop of sweat leaked from his forehead.

Mu Xiaoque cupped her hands to interrupt Zhang Rumeng's crying, "I still have some urgent matters to deal with, so I will take my leave first."

"I saw that you were not in the right condition just now, and you seem to be quite anxious," Zhang Rumeng wiped away tears, and hurriedly asked, "What is Brother Que in such a hurry for?"

"Xiao Qi was captured," Mu Xiaoque stretched out his hands to cover his eyes, blocking the unusually strong sunlight.

The shadow shrouded him, and he retreated a little from his irritability, "I'm going to rescue him."

"There is such a thing?" Zhang Rumeng said in shock: "Brother Ruoque doesn't mind, my husband and I can definitely help you."

Mu Xiaoque thanked them, and led the two of them to the east. Far away, they saw a small courtyard standing by the road, with a small dirt slope behind it.

He quickened his pace and rushed forward, immediately throwing Zhang Rumeng and the two away.

After a careful inspection around the courtyard, nothing strange was found, not to mention people, not even a mouse in the courtyard.

Although it felt strange, but at this time he had no choice but to go into the tiger's den and take a step at a time.

Turning in from the courtyard wall, Mu Xiaoque led the way into the door, and there was a pool of blood that had dried up on the ground.

He stopped suddenly and raised his hand to gesture behind him.

The room immediately became silent, and at this moment, the faint sound of clattering floated out.

"Here!" Shen Er suddenly ran to a place near the corner, stomped his feet on it, he turned his head and nodded to the two, "It's empty below."

Mu Xiaoque ran over quickly, groped on it for a while, and pulled away a thick stone slab with a bang.

The fly ash fell down along the gap, and Mu Xiaoque's shoulders loosened when he heard the familiar coughing sound from below.

"Qi Ping, grab my hand, you will never imagine who I met, Shen Er and his wife, do you remember? Beishan Inn!"

Mu Xiaoque leaned down, almost half of her body got in, Qi Ping stared blankly at the person above who looked like Mu Xiaoque but didn't look like Mu Xiaoque.

Suddenly, a crisp click sounded in the vegetable cellar.

Qi Ping squinted under the light above to see that it was the jade pendant found at the bottom of the Beishan Inn, and a similar scene exploded in front of his eyes.

At the same time, Mu Xiaoque suddenly twisted her whole body backwards, leaning on the edge of the cellar with one hand, and patted Zhang Rumeng who was attacking with all her strength with the other hand.

With palms facing each other, Zhang Rumeng hit the wall in the distance like a kite with a broken string, and spit out a mouthful of blood, which was mixed with broken internal organs.

Mu Xiaoque was also a little angry and bloody, and couldn't bear it anymore and fell into the darkness, so she had to watch helplessly as the thick stone slab fell down.

Suddenly, a piece of chain flew out of the corner of his clothes, tied the ankle of the man standing at the entrance of the cave, and yanked violently.

Shen Er was caught off guard, and his whole body fell down. With a bang, the thick stone slab fell, and the whole world was suddenly pitch black, and he couldn't see his fingers.

The three of them formed a triangle and confronted each other in the dark. No one was sure where the other was, so no one dared to take the first shot, and they were all waiting for the moment when who would show the opening first.

The familiar trembling sound of copper coins suddenly fluctuated in the air, and Qi Ping's chains instantly shot out and wrapped around Mu Xiaoque's waist, tying him up.

Huh, what followed the copper coin into the soil was Mu Xiaoque's loud shout: "Silly Xiaoqi, you've hugged the wrong person!"

Qi Ping's forehead was covered with cold sweat, he didn't care about 21, he reflexively turned slightly sideways.

A fleshy palm rubbed against his front and slapped the air on his chest instantly, and the wind from the palm made his hair flutter back and forth.

Qi Ping clapped his hands on that arm, and he used his strength to dodge backwards: "Queer, where is your Ye Mingzhu?"

"It was lost on the day the Zhou family caught fire," Mu Xiaoque had already swooped in, grabbing the iron chain tied to Qi Ping's body with one hand and pulling him into his arms, then stretched out his fist and punched into the darkness.

After a while, he didn't take it back in a hurry, and instinctively swept over, bang!Two iron wrists collided.

Mu Xiaoque grabbed it with his backhand, leaving five finger marks on Shen's back. He took advantage of the victory to pursue, and squeezed Qi Ping's waist with the other hand at the same time: "What do you smell?"

"Are you doing it?" Qi Ping squeezed his hands down, and Mu Xiaoque hissed in pain. He was about to throw him out, but after thinking about it, he took it back and hugged him tighter, "Can you do something?" Business?"

"you"

"Don't talk!" Mu Xiaoque warned, hugged Qi Ping and rolled around, and in the next second a pair of fists landed on the position where they were just now, causing the fly ash to choke their noses.

The chain swept towards that place, and instantly wrapped around Shen Er's wrist. Qi Ping pulled his arm hard, and then opened and closed, smashing Shen Er against the wall.

Mu Xiaoque supported Qi Ping on her back, and shot several copper coins at the place where Shen Er fell.

But they only heard the sound of Pupupu not sinking into the soil, the two couldn't help cursing inwardly at the same time, this person is really a loach.

Mu Xiaoque immediately moved away from where it was, and stepped on the ground lightly, without making a single sound. The strange silence was restored in the darkness, and she couldn't even hear her breathing.

Qi Ping closed his eyes, his hair suddenly brushed past his nose.

The chain on the wrist was blown in the direction of the wind in an instant, and a muffled groan sounded, and Mu Xiaoque had already moved his palm, and slapped Shen Er's head hard.

The crackling sound of crackling sounded extremely penetrating, and Shen Er fell to the ground with a thump, unable to wake up again.

"Beishan Inn was the murder of the two of them?" Qi Ping thumped Mu Xiaoque's shoulder hard, then realized that it was not a table, he rubbed it hastily, and said, "You threw that jade pendant?"

"Well," Mu Xiaoque walked to the entrance of the cave in the dark, bent down to search on the ground, and got a piece of jade of poor quality, "They were also the ones who blocked us in the well last time."

"How did you find out that the two of them are tricky?" Mu Xiaoque used his light-weight kung fu to push away the stone slab, and the two of them couldn't help squinting when they saw the sun suddenly.

Qi Ping sighed: "I always thought they were good people."

He looked down at his wrist and couldn't help rolling his eyes.

I saw that it was written crookedly, "Brother, you help me, I will help you, we owe nothing to each other."

The iron chain was probably bought by the little beggar as a weapon for him.

Mu Xiaoque walked towards Zhang Rumeng, breathed out, but she was out of breath.

He tore off a pendant from Zhang Rumeng's waist, and put the piece of jade together, "When I met them, I saw this and found that a piece of jade was missing."

"Is it just the two of them?" Qi Ping glanced around, the yard was quiet, "This doesn't seem to be a trap for you!"

Mu Xiaoque replied: "Looking at Zhang Rumeng's reaction when he saw me, it doesn't look like he expected to meet me. They should come to escort you away."

He wiped the table casually with his arm, put Qi Ping on it and sat down, cut off the chains on his hands and feet with his sword, then sighed and rubbed his head: "I'm sorry."

Seeing Qi Ping's eyes covered by water mist for a moment, Mu Xiaoque shook her head quickly, coughed twice, covered her mouth and said: "I didn't do it, I said I'm sorry because I should have explained this matter clearly to you in advance, I shouldn't let you You are sad."
