Return [Quick Transmigration]

Chapter 25 Ancient Assassination Team (25)

Qin Zhao and others soon arrived outside Beijing. Shi Qingyu didn't want to reveal his identity during this trip, so besides Qin Zhao, he only brought a guard with him.This guard, Qin Zhao, had never been seen in the sixth prince's mansion. Although Shi Qingyu said that he was a guard, Qin Zhao felt that the other party was more like a secret guard who came and went without a trace.

Shi Dezheng walked side by side with Sima Liao on his own, and along the way, Qin Zhao heard Shi Dezheng and Sima Liao arguing. He said it was a quarrel, but it was more like Shi Dezheng was finding fault, but he didn't take up the topic at all. Advantage, Sima Liao didn't talk much, but Shi Dezheng would swallow his words, but Shi Dezheng became more and more courageous as he fought.

Their team soon came to a post station. Qin Zhao came down with Shi Qingyu in his arms. They asked for a few seats at the post station and gathered around a table. The proprietress of the post station served them some tea and side dishes.It was just noon now, and there were not many people in the station, and it seemed that most of them were businessmen.

Qin Zhao first poured tea and some side dishes for Shi Qingyu. After seeing Shi Qingyu move his mouth, Sima Liao and Shi Dezheng moved their chopsticks.The food outside was not as good as those in the palace or in their own mansion, but Shi Dezheng and Sima Liao were not heavy eaters, they just frowned, and slowly swallowed the food in their mouths.

After eating and resting for a while, Qin Zhao and the others continued on their way.It wasn't until evening that they set up camp in a forest.The guard who followed them was called Fang Xu. Fang Xu walked around in the forest, and soon returned to them. He respectfully said to Shi Qingyu, "My lord, there is a lake ahead."

After hearing this, Shi Dezheng said happily, "Really?" After driving all day, they were all sweaty. After all, their identities were there, and Shi Dezheng was very happy to have a place to take a bath.

Shi Qingyu thought for a while and said, "Let's take a look at the lake first."

Everyone has no objection, the lake is very close, and you can see it after walking a hundred meters.It's not big, but the environment is quiet, and the lake doesn't seem to have any debris. If you look closely, you can still see sand and stones under the water.

Shi Dezheng is a girl, and she can't mess with them. In the end, Shi Qingyu gave a suggestion. The men stood guard with their backs to the lake. Shi Dezheng simply washed up and asked them to do it.

Shi Dezheng also knew that he was in the suburbs now, so he couldn't be too presumptuous, so he just wiped his body and returned to the team.After that it was Sima Liao's turn, followed by Shi Qingyu and Qin Zhao.Qin Zhao needed to help Shi Qingyu, and this was the first time the two met honestly in the lake.

Under the moonlight, Shi Qingyu's body was so white that it seemed to be glowing. In contrast, Qin Zhao's wheat-colored skin looked much darker at night.Qin Zhao hugged Shi Qingyu's waist, because they wanted to protect him, so their bodies were very close.Qin Zhao chanted the mantra of pure heart in his heart, and quickly helped Shi Qingyu clean up.

In the middle of the night, everyone has already fallen into a sweet dream.After confirming that Shi Qingyu and the others were all asleep, Qin Zhaocai stood up quietly from beside Shi Qingyu.Qin Zhao came to the lake, with half of his knees on the ground, and slowly tore off the mask on his face facing the clear water of the lake.

The man reflected in the water gradually revealed his true face, with a tall nose, thin lips, long and narrow red phoenix eyes, and a long scar on his eyes.

Qin Zhao's expression was very calm, he took out the water bag, scooped up some water, and washed his face.After washing, Shi Qingyu's voice suddenly came from behind.

"Qin Ming?"

Qin Zhao's eyes froze, he wiped his face and put the diaper on again, and then turned his head.Shi Qingyu was standing not far behind him, Qin Zhao frowned, wondering if Shi Qingyu had seen his true face just now.

Careless.Qin Zhao's eyes darkened, a little annoyed.

Qin Zhao walked up to Shi Qingyu, Shi Qingyu looked up at him with a puzzled expression, "You can't sleep? Why are you staying by the lake?"

"Walk around casually." Qin Zhao gave a reason casually.

Shi Qingyu smiled and didn't seem to doubt it, but let Qin Zhao push his wheelchair and go back to have a good rest together.Pushing the wheelchair, Qin Zhao looked down at the black hair of the person below, with scrutiny in his eyes.

The person being looked at seemed to be in a good mood, with a smile on his lips.

Early the next morning, Qin Zhao and the others continued on their way.It took about five days and finally reached a city.This city is called Linyue Town, and it is a place that specializes in producing dried flowers and brewing fine wine.The people in the town are very friendly, Qin Zhao and the others went up to ask for directions, and some people wanted to come and lead the way.

With the recommendation of the locals, Qin Zhao stayed in the largest inn in the town.Xiao Er led them to the wing room on the second floor, and introduced as he walked, "You guys came just in time. There will be a flower festival in the town in two days, and it will be very lively. You might as well go and have a look."

"Flower Festival?"

Xiaoer said, "Because spring is about to begin and all things will recover, the town will hold a sacrificial activity every year at the beginning of spring to pray for abundant flowers and fruits this year."

Shi Qingyu smiled, "This is quite interesting."

"That's right, many foreigners come here every year just to watch the Huachao Festival." Xiao Er proudly puffed out her chest.

After thanking Xiao Er, Qin Zhao took Shi Qingyu into the room.They asked for three rooms in total, one for Qin Zhao and Shi Qingyu, one for Sima Liao and Fang Xu, and one for Shi Dezheng.Shi Dezheng's room was sandwiched between them, and if something happened, they would be able to hear it.

After putting away the luggage, Shi Dezheng, Sima Liao and the others gathered in Shi Dezheng's room.Shi Dezheng opened the window and looked at the bustling people outside, and said with a smile, "Brother Six, it happens that we are going to stay in the town for a few days, so let's go and see that flower festival then."

Sima Liao frowned and said, "The Eighth Princess and the Sixth Prince are distinguished, and they don't have many guards. I think it's inappropriate to appear in places with too many people."

"Hmph, Sima Liao, you must be too cautious." Shi Dezheng hugged his chest in dissatisfaction.

Fang Xu and Qin Zhao felt that what Sima Liao said was quite accurate.Qin Zhao can protect Shi Qingyu, but he may not be able to protect Shi Dezheng or Sima Liao at the same time.Shi Dezheng's three-legged cat kung fu looks good, but it's not practical to use.According to Sima Liao's words, Shi Qingyu said that this person seems to be quite talented in organs, and maybe self-protection is no problem.

Shi Qingyu looked at Shi Dezheng who started to "trick" Sima Liao again, just drank tea calmly and leisurely, and finally put down the teacup after watching enough drama and said with a faint smile, "Let's take a look around these two days, I think It’s okay to go to the Huachao Festival, after all, only by walking into the people can you know more clearly how their lives are going.”

Shi Dezheng snorted again, and said proudly, "Did you hear that, Brother Six is ​​on my side."

Shi Qingyu shook his head and said, "Brother Sima is right, Bamei, when I left Beijing, I told you not to be willful."

"I'm not willful, I always listen to Sixth Brother."

"Then you can stay at the inn with Fang Xu and Brother Sima during the Flower Festival." Shi Shiyu watched Shi Dezheng jump into the hole he dug with a smile on his face.

Shi Dezheng's eyes widened, "Sixth brother!"

Qin Zhao looked at Shi Qingyu and felt that he was really "bad".

The Huachao Festival was three days later, and they were not idle for these three days. On the first day, they walked around the town for a day, and on the second day, they drank tea and listened to stories in the largest restaurant in the town. It was talking with Xiaoer at the inn.After these three days, the information is almost mastered.The folk customs of this town are simple and simple. Although the people are not rich, they will not go hungry. When they talk about the county magistrate, they praise more than criticize.

If we only look at this information, the magistrate of Linyue seems to be a good official.

The Flower Festival is held at night, and there will be street parades. Residents in the town can voluntarily join the parade. They will beat gongs and drums, kneel down and pray for blessings while walking, and go all the way to the temple at the end of the city. It is said that The scene will be very spectacular.

Shi Dezheng didn't dare to disobey Shi Qingyu's words, watching Qin Zhao push Shi Qingyu out of the inn, Shi Dezheng wanted to stare at Sima Liao, who was leisurely next to him, to death.It's all the fault of this person, she wouldn't have fallen to where she is now if he wasn't there to dismantle her platform.

Qin Zhao and Shi Qingyu soon reached the street. They went up the river. There were people on both sides of the street.

The street parade started from the city gate, and when Qin Zhao and Shi Qingyu passed by, there were already many people in loose colorful clothes gathered there.There was a burst of drumming, and the sound of horns and drums came one after another.Those people in colorful clothes knelt on the ground with serious expressions, praying for blessings, kneeling in three steps, it was indeed very shocking.

Qin Zhao and Shi Qingyu looked all the way, and they withdrew from the crowd when they saw that all the people parading in the street had entered the temple.Qin Zhao pushed Shi Qingyu to a tea stall on the side of the road, asked for two glasses of water, and handed Shi Qingyu one.Shi Qingyu smiled while holding the water, "The Flower Festival is really interesting, we can go see the county magistrate here tomorrow and we can leave."

Qin Zhao nodded.

"Is there anyone who wants to draw a sugar figure? Hey, everyone who sells sugar, come and have a look, take a look..."

While the two were chatting, there was a burst of shouting behind them.Qin Zhao and Shi Qingyu followed the prestige, and found a booth for drawing sugar figures on the opposite side.Shi Qingyu stared at it without blinking, as if interested.

Seeing his expression, Qin Zhao said, "My lord, wait for me here."

Shi Qingyu nodded with a bright smile, and Qin Zhao pulled the cloak for him before walking quickly to the opposite side.The sugar figure painter was an old man in his 60s. When he saw Qin Zhao approaching, he smiled enthusiastically, "This guest officer, the sugar figure painter, I can draw anything, tigers and rabbits..."

"Can people draw?" Qin Zhao asked, looking down at the sugar figurines that had already been painted on the booth. These sugar figurines were painted lifelike and very beautiful.

The old man smiled, "Of course, are you going to draw yourself?"

"No, draw..."

Qin Zhao turned his head and wanted the old man to draw Shi Qingyu who was sitting opposite him at the tea stall, but when Qin Zhao turned his head, the person who was supposed to be sitting in the wheelchair had disappeared.Among the people coming and going, they could only see steaming teacups on the tea table and empty wheelchairs lying on the side.

After realizing that Shi Qingyu was missing, Qin Zhao's whole demeanor changed, like a sharp sword just out of its sheath, his eyes were cold, and his whole body was filled with murderous aura.
