Daming Junior Scholar

In terms of squeamishness, He Jia'an is more squeamish than anyone else now, he would not live in a house with five taels of silver a night, but compared with his own life, he still feels that he is small Life is more important. Although the inn is comfortable, it is easy for people to find out your whereabouts. Besides, Pan Xuezhong has been an official in Penglai for so many years, and the city is almost full of his eyeliner. Don't worry about running away. He will be seen by his people wherever he goes, so after much deliberation, the only safest place is the ruined temple outside.

Sighing helplessly, He Jiaan said with a wry smile: "Yue'er, do you think I don't want to live in the inn, but Cheng Wanjun's heart is not dead, the last time it was just a coincidence that we both escaped, maybe next time we won't. Such good luck."

Thinking about the martial arts of the men in black, Ji Yue also felt that things were a bit tricky. Even if she could save her life, she was not sure that she could take care of He Jiaan under the siege of so many people. Since he had already said it, then she was not The kind of person who can't endure hardships and sins, nodded Ji Yue and said, "Well, since Jia'an said it, I happen to know where there is a ruined temple outside the city, so let's go there."

He Jiaan quickly stretched out his hand and said, "Wait a minute, wait a minute, I still have something to do."

Chapter 914 Rescue arrives

Chapter 914 Rescue arrives

It has been two days since He Jiaan disappeared from sight. The people in the capital will come to pick him up at any time, but he still hasn't been found. If he can't find him, it means Cheng Wanjun's identity Once Cheng Wanjun's identity is revealed, his fate will not be much better.

Cheng Wanjun had already said that he had reserved a place for himself on the ship fleeing overseas, but in Pan Xuezhong's view, that road was a dead end.

Pan Xuezhong's heart became more and more panicked, and he dropped a lot of the exquisite porcelain placed at home. Even his wife, whom he had always been afraid of, did not dare to appear in front of him these two days, for fear of being caught by Pan Xuezhong. The anger of the crowd was affected, and only the daily housekeeper appeared in front of him unshakably, repeating the sentence: "Master, the person has not been found yet."

What a bunch of waste, the yamen servants in the yamen and the people sent by Cheng Wanjun, plus these gangsters in the county town, a total of 300 to [-] people, searched the city for two days, but they couldn't even find a He Jiaan, this news If it spreads out, it must not be laughed out of the mouth by others.

Just when Pan Xuezhong seemed to have seen himself being caught on board by Cheng Wanjun, the housekeeper suddenly ran over excitedly, and shouted loudly from a distance: "My lord, it's a big happy event. He Jiaan... found it."

A dilapidated temple, ventilated on all sides.

The feeling of camping in the wild is really not something I can afford. I have had nightmares all night, and I finally fell asleep in a daze. Good guy, it's dawn again.

Thanks to the fact that I bought a few quilts from the city, otherwise I would have caught a cold this night. He Jiaan sat up with big dark circles under his eyes, only to find that Ji Yue next to him had gone somewhere again. He Jiaan was not worried Her safety, with her martial arts, cannot be left behind by a few people.

Sure enough, after a while, Ji Yue's figure finally appeared at the gate of the ruined temple, holding up the packed pheasant, and said with a smile, "Today I will let you try my handicraft."

Roasted pheasant, this is not an ordinary taste. He Jiaan went to the creek and washed his face casually, and then rushed back, watching Ji Yue skillfully raised the fire, looking for a few thick branches Make a rack, then skewer the pheasant on it, and sprinkle the salt that you brought with you while turning it over and grilling it.

After a short effort, the aroma of the barbecue had already dispersed, He Jiaan's eyes lit up, and his saliva was almost drooling. Well, it's just that I have more seasonings in my hands.

After a while, the pheasant was finally cooked. Ji Yue tore off more than half of it as soon as she stretched out her hand, and quickly handed it to He Jiaan. into the stomach.

After having hot food in the stomach, the body also warmed up. Anyway, there is still a lot of time ahead, and the two of them just ate slowly one bite at a time.

Seeing too many wild scenery is the same thing. Apart from eating, the two of them can only sit side by side on a high place, looking at the official road not far away. The two of them have already messed up.

The first day passed quickly, and at noon of the second day, when He Jiaan and Ji Yue had just roasted the pheasant and were about to eat it, they felt the ground under their feet suddenly shake slightly, and then A thunder-like sound came from a distance, and Ji Yue was taken aback immediately, and asked doubtfully, "Why is there thunder on such a sunny day?"

This feeling is something that He Jia'an is all too familiar with. It's not the sound of thunder, it's clearly the sound of galloping war horses. Could it be someone from the capital?

Thinking of this, He Jiaan immediately became excited, and hurriedly dragged Ji Yue to the foot of the mountain. Sure enough, when He Jiaan was about to run to the foot of the mountain, he saw a dark group of people finally appearing on the other side of the official road, Qing Yishui Dressed up as cavalry, it seems that they are heading in the direction of Penglai County.

"Jia'an, they can't be bad guys." After encountering so many things one after another, Ji Yue also learned to be cautious. Seeing the cavalry gradually approaching, she couldn't help being more cautious.

Looking at the cavalry in the distance, the expression on He Jiaan's face gradually unfolded. Although he couldn't see who the cavalry was on the horse, he could clearly see the flag flying high in the cavalry. It's just the big characters of "fujun avant-garde" and "Su".

Those who can be transferred to the avant-garde of the government army, I am afraid that only the current emperor can do it. How could He Jia'an have guessed that this is Su Can leading the people from the avant-garde of the government army to meet him. With Su Can, he feels much safer when he settles in the He family , Ji Yue and himself stood beside the road in a hurry, waving their arms towards the horse riding that was getting closer.

Soon, the people on the horse noticed He Jiaan. When they saw clearly that the person waving was He Jiaan, the speed of the horse team suddenly slowed down, and then slowly stopped. Su Can, who was leading the horse, quickly jumped off the horse When he got down, he didn't wait for him to come forward, but there was someone behind him who was faster than him. He rushed past him in one fell swoop, hugged He Jia'an, and said with a choked voice: "Jia'an, are you okay?" ?”

Feeling the familiar smell in his bosom, He Jiaan's tears almost flowed down, and he comforted softly: "Don't worry, Yunya, I'm really fine, Yueying, is she okay?"

"It's okay, sister is okay, everyone is worried about your safety, are you really okay?" After asking again, Su Yunya stood up straight with red eyes, and when she was about to look at He Jiaan, But his eyes suddenly fell on Ji Yue who was standing behind He Jiaan, he was taken aback for a moment, looked at Ji Yue warily and asked, "Who is she?"

Although he was prepared for this kind of scene, but it came too suddenly, He Jiaan quickly explained: "Yun Ya, she is Miss Ji, the benefactor who saved me."

"She rescued you?" Su Yunya sized Ji Yue up in disbelief, her eyes suddenly fell on the sword in her hand, how could she not recognize that the sword was kidnapped that day? The assassin of He Jiaan used it. This is not the benefactor who saved He Jiaan. She is clearly the assassin who kidnapped He Jiaan.

Su Yunya's mouth moved, and there was an urge to arrest Ji Yue first, and He Jiaan saw that the situation was not good, and Su Yunya seemed to have recognized Ji Yue's identity, and she secretly groaned in her heart. If she called out Ji Yue's identity in one voice, it would be a big trouble. He quickly hugged Su Yunya again, whispered a few words in her ear, and Su Yunya finally put the words in her mouth. He swallowed his words, looked suspiciously at He Jiaan, then at Ji Yue, and said softly, "I'll settle the score with you later."

He Jiaan finally breathed a sigh of relief, at this time Su Can finally came over, looked at He Jiaan, and when he saw that he was only a little thinner, he was also relieved, half complaining: An, you are too careless, and you don't know martial arts, how can you rush through such a dangerous situation, but fortunately you are safe and sound, it is really auspicious."

After a pause, Su Can suddenly asked curiously: "By the way, you are not staying in Penglai County, what are you doing in this barren mountain?" Unavoidably, he thought of something wickedly, and couldn't help but glared at He Jiaan, complaining: "You, let me tell you what's good about you."

Chapter 915 Lead the snake out of the hole

Chapter 915 Lead the snake out of the hole

Yuan Datou has been reciting words for the past few days. Since the last time he saw that He Jiaan failed to watch, he was not only fined a month's salary by the housekeeper, but also had a quarrel with his little brother. The result of the quarrel was that the two I don't talk to anyone anymore, so naturally I can get back the money I borrowed.

The money is small, the key is that he is quite annoyed by the breath being stuck in his heart, the first thing he does when he wakes up every day is to wander around the street, he has seen He Jiaan and his woman, as long as If I saw them again, I would be able to recognize them, and if I told the housekeeper the news, not only would I get back the money that was fined, but I'm afraid I could even get a small reward.

Thinking of getting money, Yuan Datou's pace suddenly became a little faster, but he didn't know what was going on, those two people seemed to have attained enlightenment in Penglai City, and they couldn't find it anywhere. Their figures, after two days of tossing around, actually made Yuan Datou very tired and thin.

Seeing that the sun had begun to set, Yuan Datou couldn't help but sighed, it seemed that he had been working for nothing today, and was thinking about finding a place to rest, when out of the corner of his eye, suddenly There seemed to be a familiar figure flashing past, Yuan Datou froze for a moment and quickly turned his head to look over, there were about four or five figures with their backs to him, and one of them, a slim figure, immediately attracted Yuan Datou's attention.

Although he couldn't see the woman's face clearly, the tall and slender man seemed familiar to him, and he couldn't help but follow him. After the two of them walked for a while, the woman suddenly Looking back vigilantly, it doesn't matter this time, Yuan Datou suddenly felt that his breathing seemed to be tense, this woman knew him, she was the woman named Ji Yue who followed He Jiaan.

How could she be here?

Although Yuan Datou had some doubts in his heart, when he saw the medicine bag in the woman's hand, he immediately understood that He Jia'an's old illness might be relapsed, so she took the risk to buy medicine for him. Can following her find the hiding place of He Jiaan?

Thinking of the possibility of returning the fined money, Yuan Datou's footsteps suddenly became much lighter, and his body seemed to have endless strength. While pretending to be a passerby, he tried not to meet the woman's eyes, while on the other hand He has been closely following her not far behind.

Walking through the streets and alleys, it can be seen that this woman is very familiar with Penglai City. Just walking, Yuan Datou became a little confused. Why does this woman look like she is going out of the city?

Sure enough, after walking a short distance, the city gate of Penglai County appeared in front of Yuan Datou, seeing the woman walking out of the city without hesitation, he hurriedly followed.

After arriving outside the city, the population was naturally much less. Yuan Datou was afraid of being discovered by the woman, so he extended the tracking distance a little bit, and went to some remote places on purpose, and followed the woman for a short distance. Afterwards, I saw the woman suddenly turn a corner, and went up to a small hill outside the city.

Yuan Datou was even more puzzled, what was she trying to do?It's just that when he looked forward along Ji Yue's road, he seemed to understand something. There was a ruined temple at the far end of the road.

As soon as he saw the ruined temple, Yuan Datou immediately understood everything. No wonder so many people searched the city for so long but they couldn't find the whereabouts of the two people. It's true that these two people didn't hide in the city at all, but ran outside It is estimated that the surnamed He is also a spoiled body, not used to such a cold place, he must be sick.

Yuan Datou thought he was right, and the expression on his face became more relaxed. Seeing Ji Yue's figure disappearing into the ruined temple in the distance, he immediately followed up secretly.

Soon, Yuan Datou touched the outer wall of the ruined temple, first carefully listened to the movement inside, and then took a look inside, along the gap in the outer wall, he saw a person at a glance Lying on the ground, Ji Yue, who just came back, was setting fire to make medicine for him, comforting He Jia'an from time to time.

Seeing this scene, Yuan Datou snorted coldly in his heart, and thought in his heart that it depends on where you can run this time. After confirming the position, Yuan Datou quietly retreated to the foot of the mountain At that time, he immediately ran to the city, and ran to the county government office in one breath. Yuan Datou immediately reported the important situation he found to the housekeeper.

"What did you say? They're actually hiding in a ruined temple outside the city?" The butler was also a little surprised. He Jia'an and Ji Yue shouldn't be hard-working people. They lived in a hotel, but they lived in a ruined house. Miao himself really can't understand it, but he can understand it after thinking about it again. It seems that these two people are also suspicious, so they are blessed and hide in the ruined temple. Who knows that He Jiaan got sick because of it. That's why Ji Yue had no choice but to go out to buy medicine.

After analyzing all this clearly, the housekeeper quickly ran to Pan Xuezhong, and recounted the news that Yuan Datou had inquired from the beginning to the end.

When Pan Xuezhong heard that He Jiaan was hiding in the ruined temple outside the city, he breathed a sigh of relief. This is the sky that never ends. As long as he gets rid of He Jiaan before the capital comes, he will be fine. He can continue to be the county magistrate of Penglai steadily, but after this battle, it is time for him to think about his way out.

The issue of retreat is something to be considered in the future. The most important thing right now is to kill He Jiaan. Pan Xuezhong immediately ordered the housekeeper to inform Cheng Wanjun of He Jiaan's location, and specifically asked the housekeeper to act quickly. People will arrive soon, if He Jiaan escapes, it will be a big trouble.

The housekeeper didn't dare to delay, and hurriedly led Yuan Datou to Chengjiazhuang outside the city on horseback. Cheng Wanjun in Chengjiazhuang had lost his former calmness. If He Jiaan couldn't find him every day, he would be more and more dangerous every day. If the truth is leaked out, those officers and soldiers will certainly not let themselves go easily.

So while sending people to look for He Jiaan, Cheng Wanjun was not unprepared. He started to pack up the gold and silver at home, and prepared to run away immediately if He Jiaan could not be found tomorrow. Although the conditions at sea were not as good as here, it was better It's good to lose your life.

Under such circumstances, the housekeeper of Pan's family finally brought him good news. When Cheng Wanjun heard that he dared not find He Jia'an because he was ill, he felt happy and heaved a long sigh of relief. To prepare, even if the sun is about to set at this time, He Jia'an must be eradicated tonight.

When it finally got dark, it was also the time when Cheng Wanjun acted most recklessly. A team of more than 100 people left Chengjiazhuang in such a blatant way. After choosing a direction, the group headed towards the ruined temple under the leadership of Yuan Datou. After about half an hour, the ruined temple on the mountain finally appeared in the eyes of everyone. At this time, the moon and stars were sparse, and the ruined temple was clearly visible. A glimmer of fire.
