The two of them rode Juechen and rushed out of the sky, heading towards Guikui Pi.
Gu Fengqing finally arrived at the post station after a long journey. Seeing that it was already dawn, he couldn't help but persuade him, "Master, we have been on the road for two days and two nights, and we are still resting at the post station for one night. If Madam knew that you were rushing on like this, you would be so desperate."
, you will be angry when the time comes."
Gu Fengqing rode a high horse and looked at the gate of the inn. He counted the days and found that Yun Miaomiao should arrive half a day earlier than him. Could it be that she hadn't come yet? Or something happened on the road?
"Go in and ask if there is any news of their arrival." Gu Fengqing ordered.
Qing Mo thought for a while and guessed what Gu Fengqing meant. He felt that Yun Miaomiao's footsteps would be faster than theirs, so he left here early and went to Mobei.
He turned over and dismounted, opened the door directly and entered the inn. As soon as the door opened, the smell of blood in the air hit his face. Qing Mo paused in his steps and stopped entering the door.
The atmosphere filled the air, Qing Mo didn't think much and retreated directly, Gu Fengqing was keenly aware of the abnormality.
"What's going on?" Gu Fengqing whispered, asking Qing Mo with his eyes. Qing Mo pointed at the inn, and then made a silencing motion on his neck with his hand.
Gu Fengqing's heart tightened, "Here we come, surround the inn for me."
Following his order, soldiers and horses quickly surrounded the inn. Gu Fengqing also got off his horse and stepped over with a long knife.
Qing Mo stopped him, "Master, we don't know what's going on inside yet. What if..."
"If something happens to her inside, can you take the responsibility?" Gu Fengqing said coldly. Qing Mo lowered his head instantly. He could not guarantee that his wife was safe and sound.
Gu Fengqing pushed him away and walked directly towards the door. Suddenly, from the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of the mark on the door, which instantly relaxed his tense heartstrings.
Qing Mo saw him standing still and walked over, "What's the matter, Master?"
"This is?" He followed Gu Fengqing's line of sight and looked over, and a less obvious mark appeared in his line of sight, "Mrs. left it?"
"Yeah." Gu Fengqing withdrew his gaze and said, "Have someone prepare the torch."
"Ah?" Qing Mo thought he heard wrongly, and Gu Fengqing looked over with a cold look, "Why don't you go quickly."
Since Yun Miaomiao is fine, there is no use keeping these people. Qing Mo asked someone to prepare a circle of torches and came back to report to Gu Fengqing, "Master, everything is ready."
"Burned."
After Gu Fengqing finished speaking, he got on his horse and said, "Leave a group of people behind. If one person escapes, you don't have to follow. The others get ready and set off. In front of us is Wanyue Canyon. We will go there tonight."
Rest there."
"yes!"
Qing Mo left a group of people behind and left behind Gu Fengqing. Shortly after a few people left, screams came from behind. The screams and roars made his back feel cold.
If the young master had not seen the mark that his wife had left for him, they would have been ambushed after they entered. Who knows what would have happened.
The group continued to drive for half a day, and finally arrived at Wanyue Canyon at sunset.
"The madam also left a mark for you here, young master. It seems that the madam has already gone to Mobei before us."
Qing Mo checked around, told Gu Fengqing the marks he found, and expressed his thoughts.
Gu Fengqing stared at the mark on the stone, "Although Mobei is dangerous, with Ying Feichen by her side, nothing will happen to her. Although our marching speed is already very fast, if we arrive in Mobei one day early, Mobei
The people in the north will suffer less for a day. The soldiers' rations cannot be saved and will be given to them as usual. The most important thing is to get to Mobei as early as possible. We can wait until we get to Mobei to make plans for food."
Qing Mo nodded, "I understand."
Ying Feichen took a shortcut with Yun Miaomiao, and it was already three days later when they arrived at Guikui Pi.
The huge ancient city, with its majestic city gate, stands in the desert, surrounded by oasis trees. Even if the desert is swept by wind and sand all year round, it has no impact on Guikui Pi.
Yun Miaomiao wore a dark blue gauze scarf on her head. The wind and sand in Mobei were blowing hard. When she first entered the border of Mobei, her face was hurt by the wind. She had to buy a gauze scarf to wear.
Disfigured.
Ying Feichen also had a gauze scarf on his head, "Gui Kuipei is ahead. It's already getting late today. We have to enter the city as soon as possible. Otherwise, it will not only be very cold outside the city at night, but there will also be attacks from wolves."
Man, if you and I encounter a pack of wolves, I'm afraid not even a single bone will be left."
"This is Guikui Pi City. It looks really different from what you imagined. Have you been there?" Yun Miaomiao stared at the city gate.
Ying Feichen nodded, "I went there twice and didn't buy what I wanted, so I came back empty-handed."
He looked at Yun Miaomiao, "Have you decided how to get into the city? Buy or sell."
"Of course it's for sale." Yun Miaomiao tightened her grip on the reins, "Drive~"
Seeing how straightforward she was, Ying Feichen also followed her, "Drive~"
Unlike other cities in Jinyun, where there are dozens of guards guarding the city gate, there are only two people at the gate of Gui Kuipei.
Yun Miaomiao looked at the two of them, her face became solemn, Ying Feichen caught up with her, and said in her ear, "Don't even think about looking at these two people. The two of them are capable enough to fight one against ten."
It seems that letting two people guard the city gate not only prepares powerful manpower, but also relaxes the enemy's vigilance.
Sure enough, the city lord of Gui Kuipi is a wonderful man.
Yun Miaomiao turned over and dismounted, and the former walked up to the two gatekeepers, "Excuse me, we two want to go to the city to do business, what do we need to do to get in?"
Upon seeing this, Ying Feichen also got off his horse and walked over closely behind.
The two men looked Yun Miaomiao up and down, "Are you the buyer or the seller?"
"Seller!" Yun Miaomiao answered truthfully.
As soon as they finished speaking, the two people looked at each other, "You're here to do business? But why didn't I see the goods you brought?"
"Of course I have brought the goods with me. You can rest assured of this. I said I came here to do business, and I will not lie to anyone." Yun Miaomiao said firmly.
"Okay, two people, two hundred taels of silver, sign and pledge here. Each party will hold one. If you have no problem, pay the money and go to the city. If you have any problem, go back home. You are not welcome here."
"This is a two hundred tael silver note, look at it." Yun Miaomiao took out the silver note from her arms and handed it over.
Ying Feichen looked at the two banknotes and stared at them closely. After earning money for more than half a year, he knew how hard it was to earn money.
Yun Miaomiao was so wealthy that she gave away two hundred taels without blinking an eye. If it were him, he might not be able to part with it.
Ying Feichen sighed secretly. When he was so old, he had never bothered about money. Unexpectedly, he fell into trouble for money.
"Sweet man, come and sign." The man took the money, and Yun Miaomiao also signed directly. The city gate opened, and the two of them led the horse and walked in.
The ground was full of wind and sand outside, but it was very clean inside. After Yun Miaomiao came in, there were not many people on the street and few people came and went.
"This place only gets lively at night, otherwise people wouldn't call it Gui Kuipei. If the city lord is in a good mood, he will come out to do deals with everyone at night, and the price will usually be very high. If you want to buy from the city lord
I have a good opportunity to buy food in my hands, so I think tonight is a good opportunity. Let’s find an inn to stay at first, and then come out to watch the excitement in the evening.”
"good."
The two found an inn in the middle street. The location was decent, right in the middle. There were many vendors on the main street, but Yun Miaomiao didn't have much interest. After washing up and eating, they fell asleep.
It wasn't until Ying Feichen knocked on the door that she opened her sleepy eyes and looked at the dim environment, feeling a little confused.
"Yun Miaomiao, if you don't get up, I'm going to go in." Ying Feichen threatened.
Yun Miaomiao came back to her senses and remembered that she was in Mobei. She immediately sat up and looked at the door, "I'm up, just wait."
When Ying Feichen heard the sound, he breathed a sigh of relief silently.
After a while, the door opened from the inside. Yun Miaomiao got up quickly and was still panting.
"What's wrong?"
"It's getting dark, and the show outside is about to begin. I'll take you to a restaurant to find a place to eat, and we'll watch while we eat." Ying Feichen pointed to the sky outside and said.
Yun Miaomiao glanced at the sky and saw that it was indeed dark, "Okay."
Ying Feichen took her to find one of the best restaurants in the city, and sat down by the window upstairs. The street below was gradually becoming lively, with vendors, buyers, and sellers walking back and forth, and crowds of people.
Moving.
"So many people." Yun Miaomiao sighed. This place is not close to mountains or water, and is surrounded by desert. It is really weird that there are so many people.
Ying Feichen poured her a cup of tea, "There are still very few people at this point. Only later will the real sellers and buyers come out. Now these are just explorers."
"That's it." Yun Miaomiao nodded.
Not long after, the dishes were all served. Yun Miaomiao took a look at the dishes and found that they were all very good. She just woke up and was hungry, so she stopped talking to Ying Feichen and lowered her head to eat.
.
"Look, the city lord is out, it's the city lord."
I don't know who shouted, Yun Miaomiao choked on her chewing movements, and immediately leaned out of the window and looked at the street downstairs.
Sure enough, there was a huge sedan, being carried by eight people and moving slowly along the street.
"City Lord, look at me, look at me, I'm a cloth seller."
"City Lord, I am a salt seller."
"City Lord, I am from Porcelain."
Yun Miaomiao was surprised by the transaction method. It was too simple and crude.
"That's what you yell?"
Can their so-called city lord like it?
Ying Feichen nodded, "That's it. We arrived many days earlier than Gu Fengqing. If you're not in a hurry, we'll start today. How many days will we wait and see?"
"But didn't you say that it's not certain when the city lord will come out next time?" Yun Miaomiao raised her eyes and looked at Ying Feichen, "Are you lying to me by saying this?"
Ying Feichen was immediately asked, "Of course, of course not."
"That's alright. Since this opportunity has been placed in front of us, we should cherish it. But I'm curious, how did those people transport the things here? Did the city lord really buy it and ask for it?
Where to sell it? Is it Bei Lie?"
Ying Feichen had never thought about this problem, but after Yun Miaomiao said this, he started to think about it.
"Could it be that the people behind this Gui Kuipi city lord are from Bei Lie?"
"It's hard to say." Yun Miaomiao shook his head, "Why don't we give it a try and see if our guess is correct."
Saying that, Yun Miaomiao stretched out her head and shouted along with the people underground.
"City Lord, I sell seafood, which is delicious and delicious."
Sure enough, as soon as Yun Miaomiao's voice fell, the sedan chair just happened to stop under the restaurant where Yun Miaomiao was. The person on the sedan chair opened the curtain, and a person walked out from inside.
I saw that the man was wearing a red dress and a bright red gauze on his head. He had a pair of clear and bright eyes on his fair face and long, soft hair, which made him look particularly enchanting.
Not only Yun Miaomiao gasped after seeing her, but everyone present was attracted by her graceful figure and stared at the woman intently.
Is this man the city lord of Guikaipo?
The city lord is actually a woman?
Most people in Guikai Slope have never seen the true face of the city lord. Usually, the city lord walks down the street, then gives the information of all the people who need to be traded to his attendants, and finally selects one to trade.
The woman raised her head slightly and met Yun Miaomiao with a pair of red eyes, "When is the girl going to trade sea goods with me?"
Yun Miaomiao took a breath and her head went blank, but she quickly calmed down.
Yun Miaomiao withdrew her gaze, looked at Ying Feichen's red ears, and then looked out the window.
"It's me, Lord City Lord, do you want to come up and learn more about me in detail?"
Yun Miaomiao's sincere invitation, unexpectedly the city lord smiled and agreed directly.
"Okay, I, the city lord, will go up and discuss this business with you today, so I won't bother the girl."
After a while, Yun Miaomiao saw that she stood up gently on her tiptoes. The four attendants around her raised their long sleeves. The woman stepped on the long sleeves and landed directly beside Yun Miaomiao. The distance between the two was only a foot.
Arms apart.
"You..." Yun Miaomiao blinked, "You know kung fu."
Ying Feichen wanted to pull Yun Miaomiao to stand up, but his intuition told him that the city lord came out today just for Yun Miaomiao, and his purpose was very impure.
Gu Fengqing, I'm afraid your wife is going to die.
I didn't steal it, the other person was a woman.
I had long heard that the city lord of Guikai Slope had a eccentric temperament, but I didn't expect that he actually liked women.
If he had known this was the case, he would not have brought Yun Miaomiao here.
Yun Miaomiao was not much better than Ying Feichen, just because the city lord sitting opposite him looked at her with an extremely ambiguous look.
"City Lord, have you eaten?" Yun Miaomiao's brain was a little down, and she was already talking without hesitation.
The woman raised her lips and said, "I'm Yan Xi, you can call me sister Xi'er. Sister, I haven't eaten yet. Are you good at cooking? What does the seafood you mentioned look like? Is it delicious?"
Yun Miaomiao looked into her innocent eyes, and was he sure that this woman was the owner of Gui Kaipo?
Ying Feichen's back was already sweating. This tone and attitude were hard to criticize.
"I know a little bit about it, but I don't know if it suits your taste."
"Then sister, please cook me a meal. I want to try it." Yan Xi said directly.
Yun Miaomiao swallowed and glanced at Ying Feichen. This was Yan Xi's territory. They had entered the wolf's den.
"This is a restaurant, I..."
"Then sister, come home with me. My kitchen is very big. You can do whatever you want."
Yun Miaomiao said "Ah" and wanted to refuse, but unexpectedly Yan Xi took her hand and walked outside.
"Sister, let's go, I'll take you there."
"Wait a minute~" Yun Miaomiao looked at Ying Feichen and asked him to think of a solution quickly. Ying Feichen's face turned pale and he didn't know what to do for a while.
Only then did Yan Xi discover Ying Feichen's presence. Her expression, which had been smiling just now, instantly changed.
Looking at Ying Feichen, his face was full of hostility, "Who is he? Your husband?"
"No, no, no, no, I am her brother, yes, brother." Ying Feichen was frightened and immediately clarified.
Yun Miaomiao wanted to bite him to death. Yan Xi looked at him suspiciously, and then asked Yun Miaomiao, "Really?"
"Of course, you're right, sister." Ying Feichen winked, and Yun Miaomiao rolled her eyes inwardly, this shameless guy.
Seeing Yan Xi looking over, Yun Miaomiao had no choice but to nod, "Yes, he is my brother. We are here just to do business."
"Oh." Yan Xi reluctantly believed it, "Then let's take him with us. You guys can pick him up."
Yan Xi pulled Yun Miaomiao downstairs and got into the sedan chair. Only after Ying Feichen got off did he realize what Yan Xi meant by "bringing along" just now.
Yun Miaomiao looked through the curtain and saw Ying Feichen walking on the side of the sedan with a look of resentment on her face, and couldn't help but laugh.
Deserve it.
"Sister is very happy?" Yan Xi saw her smiling, "Your brother often bullies you?"
"City Lord, there will naturally be fights between brothers and sisters." Yun Miaomiao nodded and restrained her smile.
"Oh, it seems that my sister and your brother have a very good relationship." Yan Xi smiled sinisterly.
Yun Miaomiao felt something was wrong and looked at her sideways, "Why did the city lord choose me?"
"No reason." Yan Xi held his chin in his hands, "Those people outside have stayed in the city all year round. I go to the streets every day, and these people shout like this. There is nothing new at all. What I heard you shout is fresh,
I choose you, you are different from them, I have never heard of what you said, so I want to take a look."
"I see, after Gui Weipo comes in, can he stay here forever?" Yun Miaomiao couldn't help but be curious.
"No, one hundred taels of silver is the price of entering the city. If you want to stay, if the transaction is not successful within a year, you must either continue to pay one hundred taels a month, or be kicked out. These people have paid the money,
Naturally, you can continue to stay." Yan Xi explained.
