When Mo Qi took Xiao Yuandao's hand and led the big black horse back to Gong Jiu's mansion, Gong Jiu and the others who originally said they were going to ask the family members of the deceased, except Chu Liuxiang, were all in the hall or leisurely. , or waiting for him boredly.

When Gong Jiu saw him, a smile suddenly appeared on his cold face, with joy in his smile, and a kind of understanding that he had already expected: "Are you back?"

Mo Qi stood outside the hall door, looking at Gong Jiu with complicated eyes: "...um."

The two just stared at each other, and no one spoke.

Hu Tiehua's eyes fell on the little beggar: "This is not that... Taoist priest, why did you bring him here?"

Mo Qi: "I've accepted him as an apprentice."

Hu Tiehua was dumbfounded: "Accept, accept disciples?" He looked at Mo Qi, then at the little beggar with a smirk on his face, "Could it be that he is still some kind of martial arts prodigy with strange bones and extraordinary talents? No, why are you like this?" Did you suddenly think of accepting disciples?"

Mo Qi didn't speak.

The culprit, Gong Jiu, sat back on the chair, resting his chin on his right hand, calmly as if this matter had nothing to do with him from the beginning to the end: "Hu Tiehua is right, your timing is too bad."

Gong Jiu stared at Mo Qi's face, but he didn't see any anger or forbearance that he wanted to see on that jade-like flawless face.

Mo Qi was indifferent: "Yes."

Gong Jiu's eyebrows frowned: "..." A kind of unpleasant emotion that hit the cotton with his fist squeezed out the joy that was brewing in his heart, so that he even felt a cluster of irritability silently ignited in his heart. fire.

He got up suddenly, brushed past the silent Mo Qi, and walked out of the hall: "Go to the city gate."

·

·

It has been three days since the nearest corpse arrived.

If the murderer really followed the rule of one corpse every three days and sent someone to the city gate, there would be another fresh corpse on horseback almost this evening, and be sent all the way to Yumen Pass.

Hu Tiehua was teasing Mo Qi's freshly baked apprentice all the way: "Your name is Tang Tang?"

Tang Yuandao was so angry that he wanted to jump out of Mo Qi's arms and bite him: "Tang! Yuan! Dao! My name is Tang Yuandao! Not Tang Tang! A man, please change your name or sit down!"

"Hey? You know a man..." Hu Tiehua was so happy that his eyes almost disappeared: "I see, your name is not Tang Tang, your name is Tangtang, candied haws."

Tang Yuan yelled like a chick without any deterrence: "Ahh! I'm going to bite you to death!"

Hu Tiehua slammed his arm in front of Tang Yuandao listlessly: "You bite."

Mo Qi stretched out his hand to block the little apprentice's head that was really leaning on Hu Tiehua's arm, and said lightly: "He has developed his inner strength, you can't bite."

If Tang Yuandao really bit on it, whether it would hurt Hu Tiehua or not, let alone Hu Tiehua, his own little milk teeth might collapse a few.

Tang Yuan said: "..."

Tang Yuandao stared at Hu Tiehua in shock: This big stubble is so bad!

The little farce between Hu Tiehua and Tang Yuandao didn't last long, because Mo Qi had already carried his little apprentice and flew onto the city wall.

Before Tang Yuandao could blink his eyes, Mo Qi turned back suddenly: "There is an army."

Lin Qi, who had always regarded himself as a wooden stake that could not speak, was startled and couldn't help but ask, "Army?"

Mo Qi glanced at Lin Qi: "It's still far away, it's the Liao Army."

Hu Tiehua frowned: "Liao Army? Did you read that correctly? Even if there is an army here at Yumen Pass, shouldn't it be the Xixia Army?"

Mo Qi was not displeased by Hu Tiehua's questioning, but said plainly: "That's right, it's the Liao army. I saw the jade flag."

Lin Qi's face turned pale: "Jade flag? Is it, the invincible Seventh Prince of Liao, the Liao army led by Yelu Ruyu?"

Mo Qi nodded: "It should be right."

The little eunuch's expression couldn't be described as ugly, and his small body shook: "Then, this must be reported to the Holy Majesty, and it must be reported to the Holy Majesty immediately!"

Hu Tiehua grabbed the little eunuch by the collar: "Why did you report immediately? This is the northwest, even if you put on wings, you can't fly to Bianjing."

After all, Lin Qi was still young, and it was difficult to keep calm in the face of this sudden change: "Then what should we do? The Liao army has already reached the Yumen Pass!"

Hu Tiehua smiled: "Not here, not here. Who do you think saw this? This was seen by Mo Daochang, not by the soldiers guarding the city. In fact, the Liao army is still far away. The normal army The speed of travel, at least I can walk for half a day, don't worry."

Tang Yuandao nestled in Mo Qi's arms, listening stupidly.

Lin Qi stomped his feet: "Half a day? One day is not enough! The main general of Yumen Pass has died tragically, the murderer has not been found, and the corpse has not been restrained. How can they resist Yelu Ruyu's team?"

Hu Tiehua was helpless: "What are you in a hurry for? Look at Daoist Mo, he is a saintly person who is concerned about the country and the people, and he didn't even frown. I think the Liao army didn't want to attack Yumen Pass with a charge."

"I'm not a saint." Mo Qi replied to Hu Tiehua first, and then said to Lin Qi who was looking at him expectantly, "It's really not. The Liao army is not large in number, and they are not moving fast. It doesn't seem like they are coming to attack Yumen Pass." And the Liao army is on the territory of Xixia at this time... Perhaps they were going to visit the king of Xixia, but something went wrong on the way, so they came to Yumen Pass."

Mo Qi: "But no matter what the reason is, if the Liao army is stationed on the border of Yumen, and there is no guard at Yumen Pass, if the news leaks out...it will still be dangerous."

"That's not something that can be solved in a day or two. Even if you hurry up, it will take three or four days for the news to reach Bianjing. It's better to let nature take its course." Gong Jiu looked up at the sky: I don't know when the Liao army will come. Don't worry about it. Lieutenant General Li, just call all the soldiers who served with Ma Laodi that day."

Chu Liuxiang had already told Gong Jiu that there might be something strange about Ma's death, so Gong Jiu naturally had to come and find out more about it.

Lieutenant General Li, who had just rushed over out of breath, was about to agree when he raised his eyes to see Mo Qi and Tang Yuan and said, "You guys! Why are you here?"

Without turning his mind, he looked at Gong Jiu who asked him to arrest the little beggar, and at the man in black who was hugging the little beggar and staying beside Gong Jiu safe and sound.

A gust of bitter winter wind blew past, lifting the tail of the dust whisk that was as clean as snow on the back of the man in the black fur coat like a crow's feather.

Black clothes and white whisk, fur and handsome face.The boundaries between black and white are so clear, yet so hazy.He is like a detached ink painting, with the beauty of the sky and the charm of the moon coming out. The ink color that is both thick and light, silently shrouds the entire yellow and dusty Yumen Pass in silence and calmness.

Lieutenant General Li was dumbfounded, staring straight at Mo Qi, who was so handsome that he was not like a mortal: "This, you, are you Mo Daoxian?"

Be good, it’s incredible, this bearing, this appearance... When he first glanced at it just now, he was almost dazzled as an immortal holding a golden boy, and the yellow sand beside him turned into clouds and mist on a fairy mountain. of.

...But Jintong usually doesn't have sores on his face.

Lieutenant General Li suddenly felt that the frostbite on the little beggar's face was glaring.

Hu Tiehua glanced at the increasingly impatient Gong Jiu, and quickly pushed Lieutenant General Li: "Yes, yes, it's him, go and call someone."

My ancestors, don't look any further.Carefully kick over the jar of vinegar, when the time comes, you won't call someone else to ask questions, but someone else will collect your body for you.

With Gong Jiu's surly personality, Hu Tiehua felt that this was not impossible. Otherwise, during this period of time, why did he and Chu Liuxiang not dare to look for Mo Qi every day, but consciously began to avoid suspicion?

Gong Jiu: "Ah Chirp."

Ninth Young Master sniffed, wondering: ... I have caught a cold?It shouldn't be.

…………

Lieutenant General Li's other abilities aside, at least his execution ability is still very strong.Not a moment after leaving, the city soldiers were brought before Gong Jiu.At this time, Gong Jiu had already led a group of people up the city wall, moved the Taishi chair, and enjoyed the beautiful scenery of Yumen Desert on the top of the city wall.

Hu Tiehua was full of complaints, but she didn't dare to tell Gong Jiu directly, for fear of embarrassing him, she could only complain to Mo Qi in a low voice: "Are you kidding me, enjoying the beautiful scenery? It's more like sitting and blowing the wind."

Gong Jiu heard Hu Tiehua's muttering in a low voice, but dispensable glanced at Hu Tiehua, ignored him, and turned his eyes back to the city soldiers in front of him.

Gong Jiu went up the city wall, of course not to see the scenery.It's just that this is the best place to look out, and it is convenient for him to see the movements of the Liao army in the distance at the first time.But until now, Gong Jiu has not been able to see a shadow of the Liao army, so it can only be said that there is still a long way between him and Mo Qi.

Gong Jiu: "When Papa Ma fell off the city wall, who were the people closest to him?"

Several city soldiers stood up silently, including the young city soldier who had just been let go by Mo Qi.He had obviously seen Mo Qi standing next to Gong Jiu, with an expression of astonishment unconsciously showing on his simple and honest face.

He looked at Mo Qi in a daze, and then at the person who asked the question.

The man in white who asked the question was sitting on the grand master's chair, and behind him stood a group of black people, including Lieutenant General Li, which showed his high status.

His attitude is a little high, his eyes are cold, with indifference that does not care about anyone's emotions, but it is extremely intimidating: "I want to know how Papa Ma died. Did he fall to death by himself, or was he killed by someone else?" Pushed it down. If he died by himself, then he accidentally fell to his death, or committed suicide by jumping over the city wall..."

"Whatever you saw at the time, tell me bit by bit, word by word."

The author has something to say: Chu Liuxiang: Let me just say it, Gong Jiu will definitely ask.I, Bandit Shuai, predict things like a god.
