The two asked Xiao Er, and it would take at least two days to go to Yuecheng just by foot. Li Zheng thought that Mo Hansheng could not ride a horse or take a car, so he didn't ask, so the two of them were not in such a hurry, and walked slowly Enjoy the roadside scenery while hurrying.

Also thanks to the many tea stalls on the road for people to rest.

Li Zheng told Mo Hansheng what he had heard at the inn in the morning, and both of them agreed that those people probably thought Li Zheng's "red shirt" was Fenghua.

Li Zheng smiled and said, "It would be a good thing if we could help those two attract some enemies."

Mo Hansheng nodded: "The premise is that you are not traveling with us."

The breeze blows through the woods, and the large shade of the trees covers the two of them. The fresh air in the morning makes people feel happy.

After walking about two-thirds of the distance, we will arrive at Yuecheng in the evening, so Li Zheng suggested to take a break.

The sun is currently in full bloom, and there is a tea shed in front of it, Mo Hansheng nodded in agreement.

The people who came and went sat under the shed and drank tea. There were two small rooms behind the shed, which presumably were the place where the boss and his family rested.

Scattered places are already full of people, and the boss waved his hand to say that there is still an empty table.

The table is at the innermost side, there is a person sitting on the left table, the boss is making tea on the right side, and there are three tables in a row in front.

Li Zheng pushed Mo Hansheng over and made him sit on the side against the wall, while he sat on his right.

"Both young masters, where are you going if you are still on your way in such a hot day?" The boss brought a pot of herbal tea and poured them each, but the tea was poured tremblingly, and some spilled on the table.

Both of them pretended not to see it.

Mo Hansheng said: "Wencheng."

The boss smiled and said, "So, it's Wencheng. It's really good there. There are knowledgeable people everywhere. I think I'll let the boy go there in the future to give him a good education."

Li Zheng blinked and said, "Yeah, it's dangerous to wield knives and guns, but it's good to be able to write, memorize, and indoctrinate for a lifetime."

The boss finished pouring the tea and walked away with a smile, a little anxious.

Li Zheng brought the teacup to his mouth, and put it back after a while.

And the cup in front of Mo Hansheng didn't even move.

At some point, no one spoke in the originally lively tea shed.

The sound of breaking wind came from behind, and Li Zheng instantly bent over, turned around and raised his leg.

The teacup and teapot on the table at the back table crackled and fell to the ground, and the table was also crooked by the momentum.

He sneered: "Could you please be more professional in prescribing medicine, can the taste be covered by tea?"

Mo Hansheng raised his head and glanced: "Be careful."

Li Zheng hummed, and looked calmly at the person kicked in front of him.

The man stood up in embarrassment with a long knife in his hand, looked at him fiercely, and said: "Oh, the dead are still so talkative, look at the trick!"

Li Zheng clicked his tongue, stood up and turned sideways to hold the man's wrist with a click. The knife fell to the ground and the man bent down. Li Zheng ignored his howling, swept across his legs and then kicked again.

The person who just got up flew out again.

This time the table was not blocked, the man lay on the ground clutching his stomach and wailing, raised his head sideways and shouted: "You're still watching farts, let's go together!"

Li Zheng turned his head to look.

The two tables closest to them had stood up with knives in their hands.

Li Zheng looked back and forth, and smiled at Mo Hansheng: "This wave of people is too bad."

Mo Hansheng also smiled, but still instructed: "Be careful."

There is no imaginary melee, only one-sided crushing.

It was not yet time for a cup of tea, and Li Zheng was the only one standing there.

Mo Hansheng was sitting.

Others were lying or lying on their stomachs, wailing all over the place.

Li Zheng went over and kicked the first person to make trouble, and asked, "Who sent you here? The work in the field is done, right? It's so free."

The man bowed his body and tilted his head to stare at him, knowing in his heart that this vote would not be done.

Seeing that he didn't speak, Li Zheng kicked him twice again: "Speak up, didn't you just return to command?"

"Ahem, uh...why should I tell you?"

Li Zheng raised his eyebrows, raised his foot and kicked a stool and smashed it on the person who was trying to escape not far away, but his eyes were still fixed on him: "Since you are so weak, I don't even bother to kill you, so hurry up and say it."

The man's complacent expression froze for a moment, looking very interesting.

"Ahem, I don't know either."

"Are you kidding me?"

"Ah!" The man cried out in pain, then curled up and shouted, "What, what? What did you do?" Why is his back numb!

Li Zheng raised his head, and Mo Hansheng had turned the wheelchair and came to him. The two of them exchanged glances, and Mo Hansheng looked at the person on the ground, and said, "You still have half an hour."

The man stretched out his hand to pull out the needle on his back, but the position was tricky and he couldn't reach it. After several attempts, he gradually froze, and the calm expression on his face could no longer be maintained, howling: "I say, I say! Yes, it was a woman, she, she gave us ten taels of silver and told us to kill a wheelchair, what I said is true, you believe me!"

"woman?"

"Yes, it should be a maid, woo woo, give me the antidote." The man was crying all over his face at some point, he couldn't move half of his body, he wouldn't be paralyzed.

Li Zheng raised his eyebrows and looked at Mo Hansheng, what kind of poison is so powerful?

Mo Hansheng shook his head slightly with a smile on the corner of his mouth, raised his right hand slightly, and said to the people on the ground, "It will be over in half an hour."

The man lost half of his body and didn't know that another needle had been stuck in his back.

After performing the script of "If you fail to assassinate, you will be threatened", the two of them ignored the wailing crowd, turned around and continued on their way.

Knowing that she was screaming tirelessly on the tree, Li Zheng pushed Mo Hansheng to walk slowly under the tree, picking a few fruits from time to time and chewing them.

"Do you know who?"

The question was endless, Mo Hansheng was stunned for a moment, then realized that it was what the person said just now, and said, "Almost."

Li Zheng: "...you are really unwelcome."

Mo Hansheng smiled indifferently: "That seat... the less people there are, the better the chances will be."

Li Zheng frowned slightly: "What about the group from before?"

Those guys just now were at best hooligans, their knives were all blunt, compared to the men in black before, they were childish.

Normally, asking such a question is beyond the limit, but the two of them obviously don't care about it.

Mo Hansheng looked down at the mottled tree shadows on the ground, and said, "It should be Mo Hanzhong."

Without waiting for Li Zheng to ask, Mo Hansheng continued: "Before I left Changle, the royal family had seven children, and the only one who wanted to take that seat was Mo Hanzhong. Well, Mo Hanting may be added now."

"And you."

Mo Hansheng smiled: "Yes, and me. Mo Hanzhong is the queen's son, so he should be crowned prince. The reason why he doesn't want me to live is probably because he doesn't want the royal family to be stained. In his opinion, I'm not worth it." threat."

Li Zhengmo, he himself has no interest in these things, because he still earns money.

But for some reason, at this time, he suddenly had a thought in his heart, "It would be great if I had rights", and followed by a huge sense of loss.

He sighed unconsciously.

Mo Hansheng turned his head slightly to look at him, his eyes were full of smiles, he patted his hands on the back of the chair, and said, "It's fine if you do this, intrigue is not suitable for you."

Li Zheng looked at him, wanting to ask if you are suitable, but he opened his mouth slightly and finally just nodded.

At dusk, the two arrived at the gate of the city. Fortunately, the days are long and the nights are short in summer, and the time of closing the city is also extended a lot.

The city is not a little empty because of the approaching night, but it looks more lively than during the day.

The people who went out all walked in one direction, Li Zheng pushed Mo Hansheng curiously and followed.

After turning around the two streets, a river suddenly appeared in front of the eyes. The two banks of the river were filled with various small stalls, and the noise of selling and laughing filled the two banks of the river.

It was rare for Mo Hansheng to show a hint of interest, and Li Zheng smiled and said, "I don't know what day it is, let's ask for a nearby guest room before we come out."

Mo Hansheng nodded.

However, when they went to three inns, they were told that they were full, and the two were even more puzzled. When the fourth inn was told that it was full, Li Zheng finally asked.

"Boss, what's the big deal in Yuecheng? There are so many people?"

The boss said with a smile: "The young master is not a local."

Li Zheng nodded and said, "Could it be because of the Qiqiao Festival?" They only knew about it when they heard the girls talking on the road, but it's not like they all came here.

The boss poured a cup of tea for the two of them, and said with a smile: "The Qiqiao Festival in Yuecheng is different from other places, my lord, have you ever heard of Yueshihua?"

Li Zheng shook his head.

The boss said: "It is said that the city lord inherited a flower from his ancestors. The flower is crystal clear. If it is eaten correctly, it can cure all poisons, but if it is eaten by mistake, there is no medicine to cure it. Not only that, this flower is not visible. If you accidentally see it It will disappear in an instant when exposed to light, but it will be safe in the evening, hence the name Moonstone Flower.”

The two couldn't help looking at each other when they heard this, the old man/King of Medicine might come.

Li Zheng asked again: "What does that have to do with Qiqiao Festival?"

The boss's eyes flashed, and he said with a smile: "Every year during the Qiqiao Festival, the city lord will set up a platform under the tower, sometimes guessing lantern riddles, sometimes it is a martial arts competition, and the winner will get a prize provided by the city lord. Same. And this year, some people said that the prize given by the city lord is the moonstone flower. Do you think people can come together?"

The three of them talked for a while, Li Zheng saw that it was getting dark outside and said, "Thank you boss for letting me know, it's already getting late, my brothers and I will find another place to stay, and we'll come back to bother you another day."

The boss hastily stretched out his hand to stop him, and said with a smile: "I had a good chat with the two of you. If you don't mind, you can stay in a humble house. My house is behind the inn. There is still a guest room in the inner courtyard that has not been occupied for many years. It needs to be tidied up. It’s better not to dislike it.”

Li Zheng cupped his hands and said with a smile: "It's okay, it's okay, then thank you boss."

The boss called Xiao Er to stand in the locker, and he led Li Zheng and the two towards the backyard.

"The two young masters can go out to play after packing up. The night in Yuecheng is very beautiful, so I won't bother you two."

Li Zheng thanked him again, and the boss smiled and waved his hand and went out.

The room is simply furnished, with a bed and a table, not even a wardrobe.

As soon as Li Zheng put the burden on the table, the door was opened, and Xiao Er walked in with a pot of water and two cups.

"My lord, please use it slowly. Just go to the kitchen after drinking. The boss has told you that you are welcome."

Li Zheng smiled and thanked.

After waiting for people to go out, Li Zheng poured water for the two of them: "This boss is really kind."

Mo Hansheng nodded, picked up a glass and drank it.

Li Zheng looked down at him: "Are you tired, do you want to go out to play?"

Mo Hansheng shook his head: "I'm a little tired, you go first."

Li Zheng frowned: "How can I do that?"

Mo Hansheng smiled: "Don't worry, I won't die so easily."

Li Zheng frowned even deeper, he didn't like that this person always talked about death, he heard too much today.

"I don't know if the moonstone flower that the boss said is reliable. If it is true, the old man may come across it."

Mo Hansheng nodded: "I also want to meet that senior."

Li Zheng smiled: "Okay, then I'll go around first to see if I can meet you, and then I'll come back to pick you up."
