Chapter 8 Middle Count
The man was irritated and pinched Li Qingyou with just a little force, rolling his eyes and waving his limbs in the air.
"I'll give you one last chance, if I don't tell you..." The dark eyes of the man in brocade robes were filled with murderous intent, and his thin lips parted lightly, "Death."
Li Qingyou didn't want to die, but he didn't know what to say, and it was impossible not to say anything, so he could only talk nonsense, "...I know roughly where the person the hero is looking for is, eight out of ten, nine times out of ten, somewhere thirty miles east of the city.
Qingfeng Mountain.”
"real?"
"Guess."
The man in the brocade robe had veins twitching on his forehead.
"I'm not talking nonsense, it's well-founded." Li Qingyou analyzed eagerly and quickly: "We are a small place. We can't afford to live ourselves, so we can't care about outsiders. People with a little money are more stingy and are easily attacked.
The official’s interrogation, so..."
Therefore, there is only a mixed bag of fish and dragons, and the bandits in the village regardless of their origin are more likely to "take in" strangers.
The man in the brocade robe was silent for a moment, as if he was seriously thinking about whether the possibilities analyzed by Li Qingyou were relatively high. Li Qingyou was also thinking about whether she would be silenced.
"A hero's martial arts skills are unparalleled, but walking in the world will inevitably encounter some obstacles..." Li Qingyou smiled ugly, pretending not to see that the other party's waist represented a token only owned by the government, deliberately mistaking him for a person in the world, "As the saying goes,
It is said that there are gods three feet above the head, and it is a blessing to commit fewer crimes..."
Please have some virtue, my little life is of no use to you, just raise your hand and let it go.
The eyes of the man in brocade robes seemed to be joking and sneering. Suddenly, a slight voice came from inside the house. His expression suddenly changed, and he rushed in in a flash.
In the small and dim main room, there was a corpse of a rat that had been cut off at waist level in two places in the corner. The door between the east and west rooms was kicked open wide, and the lids of the few boxes and cabinets were opened, and the contents inside were scattered everywhere.
land.
There is no one in the house.
The man in brocade robes frowned, and glanced sharply at the slightly cracked rear window and the stool below. He strode over, raised his hand, and pushed the window. There was a sudden scream outside the window accompanied by a stream of blue smoke rising into the sky.
And rise.
The man's expression tightened. This was an emergency signal sent to him by his companion. At the moment, he could not care about anything else. His figure flashed out of the back window, and he did not notice the two rows of small footprints in the shadow under the window sill.
At the same time, on the official road outside Qingshui Town, dozens of people escorted a carriage toward Fucheng. When it turned a corner, suddenly dozens of figures swished out of the grass on the roadside.
Surround the group of people.
There was no conversation, the two sides fought directly, smoke and dust billowed on the official road, and people stood up and their horses neighed.
The man in black tried to get close to the carriage several times but was stopped by a strong figure. At the moment of a stalemate, a black horse suddenly rushed out from the direction of the city gate. The man in brocade robes immediately shouted, "Ruqiuda, you are so brave."
, wait for the governor to kill you under the horse."
At the same time as he finished speaking, the man in brocade robes was already in front of him. He jumped up with one foot on his horse and turned like a kite in the air. The sword in his waist had already been unsheathed. The two sides fought fiercely for a while, and then the man in brocade robes kicked Fei Ruqiuda.
The sword in his palm lifted the car curtain.
The man in brocade robes was frightened by the smell of sulfur that hit his face. He tried his best to run back, but he was still a step too late.
With the loud rumbling noise, all the people in front of the carriage were thrown away, most of them were men in black.
The man in the brocade robe was furious. Fortunately, he had taken a quick step to hide, otherwise his face would have been blackened.
"Damn, I've fallen into a trap." The man in the brocade robe wiped his face hard, grabbed the horse's reins, turned over, and hit the horse at a fast pace. "They must have entered the capital from another way. Follow the governor and chase them."
Upon hearing this, the other men in black mounted their horses one after another and followed closely. Those who originally escorted the carriage had also fled in all directions. The previously mighty team instantly collapsed, leaving only the remains of the carriage.
There was a rustle in the grassland, and after a while Ruqiuda crawled out with two dead grass leaves on his head, covered his chest with one hand and spit out mud, and sneered in the direction where the brocade-robed man and others left.
Turning around, he staggered but firmly strode in the direction of Qingshui Town...
No one knew what happened on the official road, not even Li Qingyou. She froze outside for more than half an hour, and when she couldn't bear it any longer, she sneaked home without paying attention to the mess in the yard, until she was sure that the man in the brocade robe had
I was relieved to be gone.
What are these things called?
As for why this happened, she had some guesses in her mind, but there were more important things at the moment. The man in the brocade robe not only kicked away the scoundrel Li Er, but also knocked down the courtyard wall.
That is the courtyard wall shared by the Li family and the West courtyard.
There were stones and everything else, but the only trouble was that it was too cold to get rid of the soil, and Li Qingyou, a little girl, didn't have the strength to build a wall, but she couldn't let the courtyard wall collapse.
"Really, just do it, what are you doing with it?" How could such a big living person get into the basket?
Li Qingyou felt heartbroken when she thought of the basket of eggs that had been kicked over in the kitchen. She had been saving them for a long time. At this moment, she also forgot that she almost ended up with the same fate as that basket of eggs.
Since there were no eggs, Li Qingyou had no choice but to grab an old hen and go to the west courtyard. Firstly, he wanted to apologize, and secondly, he wanted to ask Blacksmith Han from the west courtyard to help repair the courtyard wall.
Blacksmith Han's wife enthusiastically welcomed Li Qingyou in. She pretended to decline a few times before accepting the old hen. She couldn't help but gossip about Li Qingyou's "cousin".
"Oh, it's from my cousin's family. I met him a few times when I was a kid. Later, their family moved and something happened to our family..." Li Qingyou covered it up casually.
The people in front of me didn't know that she had worked as a maid in the Shen family. They only knew that their family encountered robbers three years ago, and she was the only one left to be picked up by the Li family.
Seeing that Blacksmith Han's wife wanted to ask more questions, Li Qingyou hurriedly interrupted her, "The yard is still in a mess. I have to go back and clean it up quickly. I will trouble my uncle and aunt about the courtyard wall."
Blacksmith Han's wife watched with a smile as Li Qingyou's back disappeared outside the gate, turned around and said, "You damn cousin, your appearance is a thousand miles away. If you really want to take her seriously, can you leave her here to suffer alone?"
"
"Okay, just say a few words, and then ask people to listen." Blacksmith Han came out of the house wearing a cotton-padded jacket, "I will pile these stones on the wall later, and usually ask the children to stand aside and wait.
Once it's civilized, just put some earth on it and it'll be done."
He glanced at the old hen in his wife's hand and said, "You can take this chicken back to someone else's child later. It's not easy for just one person."
"What are you thinking? She rushed to give this to me. It happened that my sister-in-law was in confinement and had no breast milk. I will go back to her parents' house in two days to bring her." Blacksmith Han's wife twisted into the house, leaving Blacksmith Han alone and sighed.
