canary dressed as a villain

Chapter 156 The Cute Bamboo Horse
The last operation failed. It may be that the number of people was a little too small, and they were scattered because they could not find a place where the bandits were stationed. They were defeated one by one. This time they are going to act together, no matter what happens They are not separated. When there are too many of them, it will not be so easy for the bandits to do it.

It's strange to say that the bandits in this mountain range have been active here for so many years, and it's surprising that no one has seen their cottage.

In the past few years, it was because the bandits were so vicious that they would come out to make trouble from time to time. Every time they came out, the market town at the foot of the mountain would be looted and the people suffered greatly.

But because this oasis is really remote, and many people who come here escaped from the government or enemies, no government is willing to come here to suppress the bandits, and people in the market town dare not make things big, because they are afraid of the bandits' revenge.

In recent years, the bandits have not come out to make trouble again. Many hunters and woodcutters dared to go a little deeper, but they never found the bandits.

However, this mountain range stretches for hundreds of miles. Some people say that they may be in the deepest part of the mountain. In short, no one has dared to go in and see it.

But this time is different. There are too many missing people in the market town, and there is a trend of continuing to climb.

It's not just people who are worried about someone missing at home, almost everyone who has family members starts to panic, for fear that their daughter-in-law or daughter will suddenly disappear, and they dare not sleep all night.

There is no way to go on like this, everyone can only unite to fight against the bandits, almost half of the people in the market town are mobilized, the bandits on the mountain should be at most a few hundred people, if thousands of people set off together, they will not be able to defeat them one by one .

Everyone agreed that the next day the entire market town would come out to find the bandits on the mountain and find their family members.

Hiiragi Yu listened with interest, she and Liu Shu didn't eat much, and went back to their room after dinner.

Hiiragi Yu booked two upper rooms, and she planned to spend the night at the inn before leaving tomorrow afternoon.

But the vision here made her a little interested. The bandits actually started to rob women. Could it be that there are too many bachelors in the bandit den?
But how can they do it without a trace and completely undetected?

According to some people in the town, their family members were stolen, but when they went to check later, they found that the door locks were still intact, and no footprints were found in the yard.

The most important thing is that many people obviously slept together as husband and wife, but after waking up, they found that their wives were gone. How did the bandits do this without anyone noticing?Obviously if they wanted to take the man away, it would be impossible for so many times without anyone to notice, and the woman had never struggled, even if she yelled, the husband beside her might be awakened.

Hiiragi also fell asleep thinking about this bizarre thing.

In the middle of the night, in the silent inn, there was almost only the whining sound of the cold wind blowing through the crack of the door, and soon there were several thunderclaps in the sky. Under the tremor of the thunder, the carved wooden windows seemed to tremble a few times. Now, the sound of the wind in the window seems to be less obvious.

Soon, bean-sized raindrops fell and hit the window hard, making a dull sound, and the smell of old wood seemed to spread in.

And on such a stormy night, the person on the bed lay quietly, seemingly unaffected in the slightest.

She was breathing steadily, her eyes were closed, and she couldn't see the eyeballs moving under the thin eyelids, as if she was really asleep.

A black mist gradually drifted in through the crack of the window. After tentatively hesitating for a while, it continued to move forward and slowly drifted to the side of the bed. He opened his eyes suddenly, and he didn't notice any abnormalities in his line of sight.

After observing patiently for a while, it seemed that he had confirmed that the person on the bed was really asleep and would not find his trace. Then a wisp of the black mist finally separated and floated into the other person's nostrils as usual.

But just when the black mist floated in front of Hiiragi Yu's face, thinking that he was about to succeed, he was suddenly grabbed by a tender but strong hand, and then a pair of bright peach blossom eyes suddenly opened in front of it, and a piece of Ching Ming.

Hiiragi Yu grabbed the cloud of black mist, and the black mist was still struggling as it changed its shape like a cloud.

Hiiragi Yu grasped it and sat up, her gaze shot upwards obliquely like a sword, the black mist there rushed towards the window with a jerk, the black mist in Hiiragi Yu's hand suddenly disappeared, she suddenly stretched out her hand, the black mist Suddenly felt a suction force behind it, and it struggled hard.

At this time the window suddenly opened, and the moment Hiiragi Yu raised his head, the black mist broke free from Hiiragi Yu's hands like a slippery loach, and then immediately fled without a trace.

The next second there was a sudden knock on the door, and it was Liu Shu from the next door who came to check after hearing the sound.

Hiiragi Yu opened the door and comforted her, and Liu Shu went back.

Hiiragi had told her before that she didn't need to keep vigil for herself, but as a secret guard, her instinct still made her extremely vigilant.

After Liu Shu left, Hiiragi stood by the window and watched the dark rainy night outside. From time to time, lightning above his head pierced the night sky. The water curtain on the eaves enveloped the room, and a coolness seeped in.

She clearly felt that something seemed to be spying on her in the darkness, but when her sight fell, it disappeared without a trace in an instant.

But it doesn't matter, Hiiragi Yu believes that he will always find it.

It seems that there are interesting things in this town, and she can stay for a few more days.

……

In the early morning of the next day, the town began to be busy and noisy. The conquest of the bandits was a big event, and almost all the men in the town were mobilized.

Although this oasis is only a small town, because of its unique location and the flow of people, there are more people than ordinary small towns, so it is naturally huge at this time.

Hiiragi Yu also got up early, had breakfast downstairs, and followed behind with Liu Shu, but they were only far away, very far away from most of them, standing in their position, the people in front were almost They are all like little ants, just look at the direction they are walking and don't lose track of them.

In fact, the people in the market town don't know the exact location of the bandit's lair, but they are just going deep into the mountain. Although these bandits have not appeared in people's sight for many years, the people at the foot of the mountain know very well that they are still there. exist.

Most of them started to drag into a long line after entering the mountain. Those who walked in the front were those who had already entered the mountain before. And they haven't seen each other yet.

But this time it will definitely not work, there are so many people in the market town under the mountain, and there are some outsiders who join in the fun, such as Hiiragi Yu.

Some wealthy businessmen also hired martial arts masters to protect themselves. It is definitely impossible to knock everyone unconscious this time.

Seeing the crowd getting deeper and deeper, Hiiragi gradually got closer to the crowd, after all, she wanted to see clearly at a close distance.

She didn't know whether yesterday's black mist had anything to do with these bandits, or who was responsible for the woman's disappearance, but she knew that maybe this trip up the mountain would give her the answer.

-

At this moment, unlike the tense atmosphere at Hiiragi Yu's side, the palace was full of singing and dancing.

It's just that the number of singing girls in the palace is very small now, and most of them have been dismissed from the palace. At this time, their graceful posture and singing voice are hardly cared about.

In the past, when the Empress Dowager and Yin Anping were together, although the two were fighting each other in every way, they were surprisingly consistent in this aspect. Groups of singing girls were selected into the palace, and some even became popular in front of the Empress Dowager. people.

However, after the big reshuffle, the two new figures in power in the Xiyue Kingdom Chaotang did not have any interest in it.

After Song Weisheng took control of the government, he promoted Qiu Luo. After all, he was the only person Song Weisheng could trust in that dark period. After taking power at this time, with more people around him, his inner dependence on Qiu Luo became more and more stronger.

And from the first day Song Weisheng met Qiu Luo, the other party always stood by his side like a loyal deacon, always silent and firm.

When Song Weisheng came to this world, his body was only five years old, and it was the time when the seizure of the heirloom was the most intense. As soon as he came, he heard that the Queen Mother's son had died.

He was still ignorant, so he was pushed to the position of prince, that is, the day he was named prince, the imperial concubine brought Jiu Luo to his side.

When Song Weisheng met Qiu Luo for the first time, he thought he was a brother who was prettier than a girl. At that time, he had just come to this world from modern times. Originally, in modern times, because he was locked in his body, he had no chance to get along with him. He communicated with the outside world and didn't have any friends, so he was naturally curious about the playmates of the same age brought by his mother and concubine, and this brother was so good-looking.

Jiu Luo was seven years old that year, but he had already started to practice martial arts. The concubine mother said that he was very talented and could protect Song Weisheng in the future.

At that time, Xiao Song Weisheng didn't have any thoughts of protecting or not. He thought a lot about being happy when someone played with him.

When he first came here, he often thought of his sister. He lost his parents when he was very young, but in this world, he re-experienced maternal love. Although his father was a sentimental and suspicious old man, after making him the prince, He will see him often to check his homework. Song Weisheng is very smart and can satisfy his father every time.

At that time, he could be said to be living a carefree life. Although there were constant battles in the harem, his mother was a noble concubine, and he was a prince. There were countless people who wanted to harm him secretly, but the noble concubines helped him stop them.

At that time, what he needed to think about every day was how to tease his beautiful brother. He kept a straight face every day, and he didn't like to climb trees and pick flowers with him. He always walked around with his sword in his arms. Plum pile.

Every time Song Weisheng told Jiu Luo not to move, he would pull him with an angry face, insisting on tearing him off, and the two of them fell to the ground together.

Fortunately, the plum blossom pile was surrounded by thick grass. Song Weisheng often rolled on it, and it didn't hurt when he fell.

At that time, Qiu Luo still couldn't deal with this naughty little prince. He was an orphan, and he had been training since he was picked up by the concubine's men. He knew that he would be sent to protect the prince, and he also listened to many instructions. After entering the palace, you must abide by the rules. The prince is his master, so you must protect him and not be disrespectful to him.

Seven-year-old Qiu Luo was very precocious because of his childhood circumstances. He was obedient and trained hard. Before entering the palace, everything was done step by step. He felt that he was ready and the people who trained him were also very satisfied. , After reporting to the noble concubine, he was sent to the palace.

Qiu Luo is ready to try his best to protect the little prince in the perilous palace. Although he is young, he has already undergone a lot of training.

He can't make mistakes, can't be given up, because he was selected from hundreds of children, he is the best one, he has to prove himself like his master.

In the palace, he will continue to practice martial arts, and he can't relax for a moment.

He originally thought that the life in the palace, at least the training life, should be no different from the time outside the palace.

But he didn't expect that the little prince, who was two years younger than him, would be so difficult to deal with. He had an unruly temper, was mischievous and playful, but was extremely clever, so he wouldn't let others find out.

There are people everywhere in this huge palace, but he can always find some "good places", and the little prince always drags him to go with him.

At first, Zhuo Luo was at a loss, because Song Weisheng took him out to play, leaving him no time to train, so he told his master about it, of course, this is also Song Weisheng's martial arts master.

Unexpectedly, he was severely criticized by his master. The master told him that since he was with the prince, the prince would be his only master from now on, and he could not tell anyone about the prince.

Perhaps the master at that time wanted to make Jiu Luo's heart completely belong to Song Weisheng, the master, so that Song Weisheng could fully trust him when he grew up, but he never thought at that time, because of his own words, the two would become so close afterwards A level of intimacy he had never imagined.

I don't know if one day he finds out that the two of them will go that far, whether it will be joy or sorrow.

Qiu Luo found that his master couldn't help him, and no one could help him, so he had no choice but to deal with Song Weisheng by himself.

At the beginning, he was serious, and it was all because of the rules he had accepted. He always regarded himself as a secret guard, so he didn't want the little prince to get too close to him. In the concept he accepted, the prince is the master .

Therefore, when he was forced to climb trees to dig out bird nests and block ant holes to catch and feed fish, he collapsed and was at a loss.

Moreover, Song Wei was born in the body of a five-year-old child, and the daily routine is just like that, as if the age of the soul has also become smaller, he looks like a real five-year-old child, but he will not really do annoying things, Looks extremely smart and cute.

At that time, Qiu Luo didn't know that the other person's appearance that always attracted his attention was called cute.
