Chapter 169

The night is vast, the crescent moon is covered by clouds, it is pitch black, and the scenery is difficult to distinguish. Only the lanterns hanging on the eaves emit a faint light.

Shangguan Moxun sat in the front hall, waiting quietly.

Song Ruoxi was lying on the bed and couldn't fall asleep for a long time. Along the way, Shangguan Moxun was full of soldiers, which made her nervous and restricted her hands. She didn't dare to do anything he disagreed with. It was really hard to defend against thieves for a thousand years.

The eastern sky turned white, the sun rose from the horizon, and the night had passed, and everything was fine.

Are they too suspicious, or are the thieves retreating when they see the difficulties?

unknown.

Just looking at the fatigue between Shangguan Moxun's eyebrows, Song Ruoxi felt sad and drooped his eyelids and said, "You go to the inner room for a sleep, I'm in the hall and I won't go anywhere."

Shangguan Moxun hesitated for a moment and did not persist in the upper cabin to rest. He bypassed the screen and slept on the Arhat bed in the inner room.

Song Ruoxi burned incense with clean hands and copied scriptures in the hall without leaving a single step.

The thirty-seven people stayed honestly on the fourth floor without any abnormal movement.

The ship continued to move smoothly on the river. According to the itinerary, it would not be possible to reach Quwo tomorrow. If the enemy wanted to take action on the ship, tonight was their last chance.

Shangguan Moxun once again asked Song Ruoxi to change rooms at night.

Song Ruoxi had no objection and obeyed.

In the afternoon, clouds piled up in the sky, and the sunlight appeared and disappeared, brewing a heavy rain.

The silkworm made a bowl of birthday noodles and placed it in front of Shangguan Moxun, and smiled and said, "Young Master Shangguan, I wish you a day every year."

Shangguan Moxun said lightly: "Thank you, I'm so concerned."

Only then did Song Ruoxi realize that today was Shangguan Moxun's 28th birthday. His eyes turned slightly and he stood up and went back to the room.

Shangguan Moxun looked at her back, his eyes suddenly darkened, and the bowl of longevity noodles was eaten in his mouth, which was tasteless and tasteless.

An hour later, Song Ruoxi came out of the room and held a purple purse in his hand. "A little gift is not a respect, I wish you a happy birthday."

"Thank you." Shangguan Moxun smiled, took the purse and tightly squeezed it into the palm of his hand. There was a rosary in the purse, which was taken from the string of rosary given to her by Master Jueming. Master Jueming is a holy monk. People in the world believe that he has infinite magic power. Song Ruoxi hopes that the rosary he gave can bless Shangguan Moxun with safety and health.

"I am the one who should say thank you." Song Ruoxi lowered his eyelids and said softly.

Shangguan Moxun was about to speak, but someone outside the hall said, "Young master, that girl Xi is sick, and her maid is making noises underneath."

When Song Ruoxi saw Shangguan Moxun frowned, he said first: "Go and tell Prince Tuo and let him deal with this matter."

Shangguan Moxun glanced at her.

"Let him do something so that he can't be sarcastic all day long." Song Ruoxi smiled.

"Aren't you afraid that he will let that girl live on this floor?"

"I won't agree." Song Ruoxi smiled.

Shangguan Moxun was unfortunately speaking, and Tuo Yan really wanted to let the girl Xi come up.

"She is going to get sick and give me a sanitary princess, and I will get sick. Can you bear it?" Song Ruoxi asked in a deep voice.

Tuo Yan's face turned dark and he couldn't afford it.

Song Ruoxi curled his lips and sneered, "Come on, take their master and servant ashore with a small boat, and ask them to find a doctor to see a doctor."

As soon as this was passed on, the girl Xi's illness turned into seasickness.

There is indeed something wrong with it.

"Young Master Shangguan, should you take action first and kill them?" The silkworm asked coldly with his eyes showing fierce light.

"How do you think it's done well?" Shangguan Mo asked Song Ruoxi about his opinion.

Song Ruoxi sighed and said, "Human life is at stake, what if the wrong person is killed..."

"In order to avoid accidental killing, it is better to wait for them to kill them when they take action." Shangguan Moxun did not want to take human life and re-arranged it. At dusk, he ordered the boatman to dock the boat on the edge of the cliff. In this case, even if those people had the means to take Song Ruoxi away from the boat, they would not be able to reach the shore.

After dinner, Song Ruoxi took a shower and changed clothes in the second room on the left. When the lights were turned off, he quietly entered the third room on the left. Xiangduo and Mint were guarding her side. Zishi Si was guarding the door. Cannibal took Xiangxiu and Qinghe in the second room on the left. Shangguan Moxun sat in the inner room with two followers, waiting for the thieves.

After midnight, except for the lights hanging on the bow of the boat, there was no light in the cabin. Everyone on the boat seemed to be asleep, but at this moment, it started raining, and the raindrops hit the boat, becoming more and more urgent and louder. At this time, if there were people walking at night, not only could they not hear the footsteps of people coming, but they could not even hear the sound of their clothes with wind. Stealing rain and not stealing snow. It is a good time for pedestrians to appear at night.

Shangguan Moxun tightened the soft sword in his hand, closed his eyes, and listened quietly to the sound of rain outside.

The "Dingdang" warning bell sound came from the cabin.

The sound of weapons handover also came from the deck!

"You go outside." Before he finished speaking, Shangguan Moxun had already rushed into the passage.

At midnight, the four of them had already handed over the person who had rushed out of the big hole in the rear cabin. There was no sound in the cabin. Obviously, those people did not know that Song Ruoxi was in the room.

The passage was narrow and the light was dim. A group of people wrestled together and could not be used. Shangguan Moxun stood by and watched the battle with a soft sword, but did not join the fight.

The two followers quickly came to the deck at the bow. In the wind and rain, the people who were left on the deck were fighting against eight men in black. Next to them, a small team of patrol guards fell in a pool of blood, and there was no sound.

The sound of the impact of weapons alarmed the other guards and rushed to the deck. Seeing that the matter had been exposed, the man in black tried to escape, but was blocked by the guards' retreat, and he couldn't even dive.

The people Shangguan Moxun brought were like the four of Zishi, who were all first-class experts. Without Shangguan Moxun's actions, the men in black and the people in the cabin were wiped out. There was rain on the deck, and blood flowed to the Dadu River. The cabin was filled with a heavy smell of blood.

"Princess, can you be safe?" Shangguan Moxun asked in a deep voice while standing in the passage.

"I'm fine." Song Ruoxi responded in the room.

After counting the number of people, I found that there were 19 people in total, not including the eight masters and servants of the girl Xi. I don’t know if they are really just ordinary passers-by, or if they are deliberately keeping a backup plan.

After dawn, Song Ruoxi came out of the room, the cabin partitions were repaired, the passageway had no smell of blood, and the body was dragged away. If it weren't for the remaining knife marks on the wooden door, the fight last night would have seemed to have never happened.

"Young Master Luo Qi has been waiting for so long, and finally came to the thief." Tuo Yanyu said sarcastically.

Shangguan Moxun leaned against the railing, holding a white-glazed red lotus tea cup in his hand, looking at the scenery on the river bank, drinking tea gracefully, and not listening.

Tuo Yan walked up to him and asked with a gloomy face: "You plan to leave the rest of the people alone and just leave them on the boat?"

Shangguan Moxun was so lucky that he sealed his mute hole. While turning around and leaving, he said, "You are very noisy."

Tuo Yan glared at him, but he had no way to do anything.

The ship was docked on the dock of Quwo at the end of Shenshi. The magistrate of Quwo County personally went to the dock to greet him and greeted everyone with enthusiasm.

Before Song Ruoxi's carriage was dragged down from the boat, he could only ride the county magistrate's carriage into the city first. Shangguan Moxun and others rode horses with the county magistrate.

The girl Xi took her men to hire a sedan chair and left. She did not meet Song Ruoxi and others, nor did she thank her.

Song Ruoxi was a little lucky that he did not listen to Cannibal's words and took the initiative first, otherwise he would have committed a serious crime to kill eight lives by chance.

The county magistrate held a banquet to entertain everyone, but it was difficult to stop the whole person. Shangguan Moxun and others drank a lot of wine and were helped to rest in the room with a drunk look on their faces.

On the dark night, there was no sound in Quwo City. Song Ruoxi had already gone to bed. Just in the middle of the night, a slight sound came from the door. The silkworm girl who was vigilant opened her eyes, reached out to hold the lancet placed by the bed, lifted the quilt, and rushed to the door with a quick step.

The door bolt was pushed open by the visitor with a knife. With a squeak, the door was pushed open. The silkworm's knife instantly stabbed and intersected with the visitor's knife and found a crisp sound.

Xiangduo and Mint were also awakened, and both picked up the lancet and rushed over to fight with the people who came. Only the people on the bed were moved. At this time, the tiles on the roof were lifted, and a slender figure slid down from above, pounced on the edge of the bed, lifted the curtain, and lifted the quilt, but found that there was a human figure under the quilt that was placed out of another quilt, and Song Ruoxi was not on the bed at all.

The person who came knew that he had been trapped and wanted to climb up the rope, but found that someone had jumped out of the hole. It was not someone else who came, but Shangguan Moxun, who had been drunk and unconscious after being persuaded by the county magistrate.

The four of them, who were sleeping in the next room, rushed out with weapons and handed over the man in black.

Shangguan Moxun wanted to capture him alive, but he did not pull out the soft sword around his waist. He fisted and palmed back and forth several times, and used his grasping hand to grab the person. He was afraid that she would commit suicide by biting and committing suicide, so he immediately sealed her acupoint.

The fight outside the house was also over, five people died, one person was captured alive, and two people escaped. The candles in the house were lit and the veils of the two people were pulled off. The woman Shangguan Moxun caught was the singer, and the other was the old man rescued from the shipwreck.

The silkworm opened the wardrobe door and helped Song Ruoxi out of it, "Girl, are you scared?"

Song Ruoxi shook his head and handed it over to Shangguan Moxun. The master and servant went to another room to rest.

Zi Shi pinched the singer's mouth and took out the poison sack she had in her mouth. Shangguan Mo asked the old man fainted and interrogated the singer, "Who is your master?"

The singer turned her face away and her mouth pursed tightly.

"Middle-time, I plucked her nails." Shangguan Moxun said coldly.

Zi Shi acted as he said and grabbed her hand and pulled down the nails of her little finger with blood. Her pain made her scream and her whole body tremble.

"Who is your master?" Shangguan Mo asked repeatedly.

The singer glared at him and said, "Give me a pleasure and kill me."

"Continue." Shangguan Moxun said lightly.

The singer's nails on the little finger of the right hand are gone.

"Who is your master?"

The singer curled into a ball of pain, her face pale as paper, "It's Chen Xin, the man from Heguo Dongbi."
