He Ji looked at the woman's frightened look, and the murderous intent in his eyes had subsided a little. His eagle eyes swept over the woman's beautiful face and her endearing appearance. He felt itchy and unbearable. He had been on the run for many days, but he had never seen such a woman before.
His Adam's apple twitched, He Ji swallowed and looked at the woman's body. Evil thoughts arose in his heart, and he couldn't help but approach the woman... But as he approached the woman, he suddenly thought of the liger and his father's instructions before he died, and instantly lost interest.
.
When a man is not deceived by beauty, he will often be more rational, take three steps back, and look at the woman again. This woman is so beautiful and has delicate skin, unlike the people in the North who look shriveled and wrinkled by the wind all year round.
Ba, since she looked like an ordinary Yanbei City woman, she immediately became wary again. After thinking for a moment, she spoke in a deep voice.
"You mean...you want to go home?" He Ji seemed to have found some flaws in the woman's words. As soon as he spoke, the energy that had been removed from his palms gathered again.
When Murong Wu saw the hawk-eyed, one-armed man in front of her, she was gradually fascinated by her charming skills. She originally despised him, secretly thinking that the young man thought too highly of this man, but she didn't expect that this man had recovered in just a moment.
As usual, he asked me about the nonsense he just said.
Although the hidden secret was not good, he still pretended to be frightened, stuttering, and replied: "Slave... my family wants to... go home, and I hope that a good man can spare my family's life.
"
I was on guard, how could I still be deceived by the woman's words? I wanted to take the woman's life to avoid future troubles, but then I thought that Yanbei City had been sealed. If I took the woman's life, it would be difficult to escape if the army was attracted.
Maybe it will lead to a city-wide manhunt, and then he will be exposed
The trace was even more troublesome. He changed his mind and followed the woman's words.
"Don't worry, girl, I'm not a bad person... It's just that Yanbei's closed city doesn't look peaceful. If you don't mind, how about I send you home?" Although He Ji spoke as a suggestion, there was no doubt about it.
With such a tone, as long as the girl refuses or makes any changes, I am afraid that she will be killed immediately.
The murderous intention in He Jiying's eyes was clearly seen by Murong Wu. Without thinking too much, he knew that he was trying to test. He hesitated a little, pretended to be worried, and responded: "Really...really, then.
..The slave family has thanked the hero."
If this woman spoke without thinking, it would be unusual. Such a worried state made He Ji feel less wary and said in a gentle tone: "Where is home?"
Murong Wu's eyes moved slightly, knowing that there was no room for maneuver now, so she hurriedly stood up and looked at her clothes with "heartbroken" eyes. She seemed to be pity that her clothes were covered in mud, but in fact, when she lowered her head for a moment, her eyes were no longer there.
Stop and scan towards the houses at the end of the alley.
Under the lockdown, almost every household stayed behind closed doors. Murong Wu was dusting herself off and thinking about countermeasures in her mind. After a moment, her charming eyes lit up, and she finally saw the person she wanted to find at the end of the alley.
of people.
He raised his head, pointed at the one-armed man with a gloomy look towards the end of the alley, and said: "The slave's home is at the end of the alley, a good man... If you really want to send the slave home, then..."
Before she finished speaking, she saw the one-armed man's eagle eyes narrowing slightly. Murong Wu didn't know if she had made a mistake in her words, so she stopped speaking and asked tremblingly: "What...what's wrong, hero.
"
The one-armed man suddenly showed a sneer on his face, and his eagle eyes showed sharpness, and he said from the side: "Nothing, since it's not far, then I will accompany the girl into the house, and then leave."
Murong Wu knew that there was no other way at the moment. The one-armed man was determined to find out what he was really into, so he had no choice but to bite the bullet, turn around and walk forward towards the house he had chosen.
The end of the alley was not far away. Behind him, He Ji followed Murong Wu with a cruel smile that was hard to detect. He looked at the woman in front of him swaying... After a cup of tea, he had already approached the house.
Murong Wu walked slowly in front, but her eyes were locked on the one-armed man behind her along the way. Although she pretended to be careless and incompetent in martial arts, in fact, the zhenqi in her Dantian was already sufficient, and she was always on guard against the sudden attack of the man behind her.
.
Seeing the wooden door of the house in front of her, Murong Wu used her internal energy to raise her charm skills to the highest level. No matter who opened the door, whether it was a man or a woman, she had to charm them as fast as possible... This is Jiang Ningxue
Just thought of a way.
His eyes moved slightly, and he saw from the corner of his eye that the one-armed man behind him had not spoken, so he had to bite the bullet, raised his hand, and knocked on the wooden door.
Behind him, He Ji watched the woman knock on the door with great interest, without saying a word or intending to leave. There was even a hint of playfulness in his eagle eyes.
"Dad, brother, open the door quickly, Wu'er is back." Murong Wu knocked on the door softly and performed the whole show, but after knocking for a long time, no one opened the door. He breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. Murong Wu pretended to sigh slightly and turned around to look.
He smiled mockingly at the one-armed man behind him.
"It makes a good man laugh, maybe
I went out to make a living early in the morning, and there is no one at home, so why not... the hero goes first, and let the servants wait here for a while..."
Before he finished speaking, he heard the wooden door behind him creak and slowly open.
Before Murong Wu could speak, she saw the one-armed man in front of her with a playful smile, smiling behind her and saying: "This little girl, said this is hers..."
Before the word "home" came out of her mouth, Murong Wu had already moved. After countless calculations, she didn't expect that the one she picked would be the place where the one-armed man settled and hid. No wonder when she pointed at this house, he had a playful smile on his lips.
It turns out that I am the clown.
Without doubting for a moment, Murong Wu raised her palm up as a sword. Murong Wu turned around and struck with a chop. In the alley just now, she had seen the internal energy emanating from the one-armed man. She thought that she was not sure of taking down the one-armed man in an instant. Since
If there is someone behind you, why not try to capture the person behind you, or you may be able to escape.
Murong Wu's palm was really sharp. The moment He Ji saw through the woman's plan, he already expected that she had martial arts skills, but he didn't expect that her martial arts level was so high. This move turned her palm into a sword, thinking that even if his right
She was still invincible with her arms, but this woman was so smart that she chose the wrong person.
Sure enough, when He Ji's mind was undecided, Murong Wu's charming figure seemed to have been hit hard, and was knocked back from the door...
——
"Dear guest, look, this deer antler is reddish-brown in color, light in weight, hard and brittle. It is of the highest quality. Shopkeeper! Shopkeeper! How much money." The team leader who led Gu Xiao to select deer antler in the street shop looked at him.
The young man was holding the deer antler in his hand. He thought the young man was interested in the deer antler, so he hurriedly asked the store for the price.
Where is Gu Xiao's mind?
Above these deer antlers, just to check the deer antlers, his eyes were locked on the alley entrance, hoping to see Murong Wu's figure walking out of the alley after discovering He Ji's whereabouts, but Murong Wuru had been in the alley for half an hour.
There was no movement at the alley, which made Gu Xiao not worry.
Due to the city's lockdown, the business in the store has been quite deserted. The owner of Luantong was leisurely pouring himself a drink in the back hall of the store and leaving the store to the waiter. When he heard that there were customers coming, he quickly put on a smile and started from now on.
He came out of the hall and saw a man in armor from the army. His smile became even brighter and he stepped forward.
"Today a distinguished guest is coming to our door. I am blind and did not go to the door to greet the two military masters. I hope you will forgive me."
The military and civilians in Yanbei have always had a harmonious relationship. The corps commander did not show pride in his military strength. Instead, he responded politely: "Shopkeeper, this is our distinguished guest, General Yu. Come to choose one or two today. Do you have the best antler in your store?"
, don’t use these low-quality goods to fool people.”
"Master Jun, you are serious. If you open the door to do business, how dare you pass off inferior velvet antlers? These are high-quality velvet antlers. Isn't this because the city is closed? There is some dust there. Don't worry, Master Jun. If my antlers are inferior goods,
, you don’t have to capture me, I will surrender myself." The shopkeeper hurriedly explained.
Having been doing business for many years, I could immediately spot the young man holding the deer antler, who seemed to be deep in thought, and kept glancing at the "distinguished guest" with his eyes.
Gu Xiao was brought back to his thoughts by the conversation between the corps commander and the shopkeeper. He knew that he could not let the corps commander see the clues. When he turned around, he accepted the shopkeeper's words.
"Since the shopkeeper has said it, I naturally believe that your deer antlers are indeed of the highest quality. I happened to be away from home for many days and wanted to buy some to present to my family when I return home.
The middle elder."
"Master Xiaojun is indeed a filial person. He goes out to buy some specialties to honor his elders. How about I come and choose some for Mr. Jun?" The shopkeeper rarely had business coming to his door, so he quickly complimented him and wanted to keep this business.
Gu Xiao said no more and only nodded slightly. There was still a shopkeeper to help him select the goods, and he glanced at the entrance of Shicai Alley intentionally or unintentionally.
The captain's eyes scanned the young man alertly, and he felt a little relieved when he saw that he was not in a hurry, watching the shopkeeper select the deer antlers. However, he still didn't see the young man's companions, which still made the captain a little panicked. After looking at it for a moment, he finally
Unable to hold back, he wanted to step forward and ask again, but the moment he spoke, he was blocked by the young man.
"Brother, by chance, I'm not from Yanbei. Can you help me take a look at this deer antler that the shopkeeper picked for me?"
The words that came to his lips were blocked by the young man's mouth and swallowed. The captain could not speak, so he had to pick up the deer antler handed to him by the young man, examine it carefully, and then respond with some words.
After spending most of an hour like this, Gu Xiao saw that there was still no movement at the alley from the corner of his eye. He was worried that Murong Wu had made a mistake, and even more worried that He Ji had seen the clues, so he wanted to throw away the team leader and go into the alley.
He made some inquiries. Just when he was thinking about how to speak, he heard the Wu Commander speak first.
"It seems that your distinguished guests are not very interested in this Yanbei specialty. Why don't I introduce your distinguished guests to this antique business, which is also one of our Yanbei's specialties."
Gu Xiao knew what the corps commander was thinking, and all he could do now was to stabilize him and prevent him from getting suspicious. He immediately smiled and said: "It's just right, so I'd rather be respectful than obey... But I'm worried that when my companion returns,
, if you can't find me...it's better...
.”
"Don't worry, distinguished guest, the antiquities shop is not far from this street. Let's go and have a look. I'll tell the shopkeeper again that if the distinguished guest's companion comes back, just ask him to wait here." The captain seemed to have noticed.
The distinguished guest was thinking and immediately replied.
"That's fine, I'll ask you to lead the way." The young man thought for a moment, and when he heard the corps commander bluntly saying that he didn't want to stay apart, he felt relieved and readily agreed. In fact, he was already thinking secretly in his heart about how to find opportunities to get rid of this person.
, go and investigate the alley.
Having already agreed, it was still the corps commander who led the way, and Gu Xiao followed him, turned several street corners, and finally entered a secluded alley in Yanbei City.
There were not many pedestrians on the street, let alone the secluded alley where there were not many pedestrians. Although the sun was high, the alley was very quiet. Even the guard dog that usually loved to bask in the sun was not seen today.
There were only two people walking on the snow, and the sound of the hoofs of the horses they were holding on the ground could be heard in this empty and secluded alley.
Not long after walking, the team leader who was leading the way stopped, looked up at the antique signboard, looked back at the young man behind him and said, "Dear guest, we are here."
Along the way, Gu Xiao was still thinking about Murong Wu and He Ji. When he heard the captain speak, he came back to his senses and looked up at the signboard above his head.
The three characters "Tongguxuan" are vigorous and powerful.
