The next day, when the two woke up early in the morning, Ling Shen sat up and flirted with Yu Yun again.It's a pity that this man's beard is too dense, and he can only vaguely see the slightly reddened forehead and the corners of his eyes, and the expression on his face is still indistinct.This reminded Ling Shen of the dream he had last night. In the dream, he shaved the man's beard clean as he wished. Although he couldn't see his face clearly, he felt that he was the type he liked.Thinking of this, he became even more determined to shave off the man's beard.

Of course Ling Shen knew that this was not the time to do such a thing, at least he had to wait until the robbers were dealt with.In this way, he felt that it was imperative to deal with the robbers, and it would be faster and more effective.So he didn't say anything, so he took the initiative to take the head of the house to the stable to lead the horse.

Qi Jiu got the news as early as they entered the stable. As a loyal, confident and patient suitor, he naturally wanted to follow the footsteps of the moon god in his mind - Ling Shen stepped out of the restaurant with his front foot, and his back foot Follow up.

"Are you two going out of the city? I wonder if we can go together?" Qi Jiu stood in front of the two with a smile on his face.

When Ling Shen saw him, his eyes turned cold, and just as he opened his mouth to spit out the word "Get out", Yu Yun who was standing beside him tugged at his sleeve without a trace, and then very naturally took the conversation away from him, Asked: "May I ask where the caravan led by Xiongtai is going to do business?"

Qi Jiu naturally heard Ling Shen's "Get out", but he was thick-skinned enough, and pretended not to hear it without changing his face, but instead answered Yun's question, only listening to him: "Go to Beijing."

Shangjing is the capital of Nanliang.Yu Yun frowned, but said: "So I'm going to the capital, it seems we're not going the same way."

"That's really a pity." Qi Jiu sighed, very sad.But the strange thing is that he clearly showed a look that he wanted to follow to the death, but finally gave way.

Both Ling Shen and Yu Yun were a little surprised, but after all, the two of them had important matters to worry about, and Qi Jiu's understanding of not being entangled, on the contrary, followed their wishes.So he didn't stop, and led the horse to the city gate.

When the two of them were far away, the person who had been secretly hiding behind ran forward with hasty steps.This person was not someone else, but Qi Jiu's personal servant, and he, who was not tall, quickly moved to Qi Jiu's side.

"Master, I almost thought you were really going to drag them along."

Qi Jiu glared at him: "Your master, am I such an inconsiderate person?"

The young man shook his head very knowledgeable about current affairs, but he had already nodded in his heart, didn't he? The way he looked at others seemed to want to tie them to his waistband and carry them with him, which made him startled several times. .If people really followed them, they would have to replace them with headaches.He sighed again in his heart, looked sideways at his master, and thought to himself, this man is also a careless person, thanks to having such a powerful son to plan for him, otherwise he might not know when he lost his life.

The boy was muttering in his heart, he turned around and saw his master got on the horse, and hurriedly followed.

However, Ling Shen and Yu Yu hurried all the way, and finally arrived at the Chengguan where Fuzhou entered Muzhou ten days later.

Usually, the prefectures and counties would not strictly guard the city gates, but recently, the state government has been unable to arrest the bandits, which has caused panic in the Muzhou prefecture. With the idea of ​​avoiding the limelight, for a while, the cities bordering Muzhou and several nearby states were extremely lively.Knowing this, the state government quickly sent people to strictly guard the city gate to prevent the gang of robbers from leaving Muzhou among the civilians.The two rushed to the city gate, and it was the time when the investigation was the most intense, and there were Xiang troops patrolling back and forth in some nearby canyons and mountains.

It was an hour after the two of them entered the city.

However, the two of them did not stop in the city, but walked all the way to the outskirts of the city according to the code left by Shen Qi.There is a house on a gentle slope away from the official road, it is not very luxurious, with black tiles and white walls, it looks very simple.

When Ling Shen saw the house, he turned his head towards Yu Yun and said, "I didn't expect that kid to be very low-key." It was only after he finished speaking that he saw two burly men standing impressively on the trees on both sides of the uphill road. .These two people were probably in charge of guarding. When they saw someone coming, they immediately shouted: "I planted this tree, and I drove this road. If you want to cross this road, leave money to buy the road..."

"Pfft~" Ling Shen was choked, and almost didn't come up in one breath.He smoothed his chest, turned around and said to Yun, "I take back what I said just now." Isn't this clearly telling people that this is a den of robbers?Although he did ask for a high profile at certain times, it was not for his own people.

The two big men didn't seem to be afraid of them when they saw the people coming, so they jumped down from the tree suddenly, and rushed up with a big knife in their hands.

"Who is here, tell me your name?"

"..." Ling Shen looked at them speechlessly, and for a moment just wanted to pry open their brains to see what was inside.

Seeing that the people on the opposite side did not respond to the lines he designed, one of the big men was a little puzzled in his heart. You must know that the people who passed by here a few days ago were scared away by his words.Curious, he stared at it for a while, but he didn't notice it, and he didn't frighten him out of his wits.

"The master..." As soon as the big man said that, the big man next to him also realized in an instant, the person in front of him who was riding a horse as handsome as a god descended from the gods was not the master, and since the master came, the man next to him The bearded man should be in charge.

Both of them were hired by Shen Qi from the labor market. They met Ling Shen once during training, so they had some impressions of him.As for the understanding of Xun, it all comes from Shen Qi's daily nagging, which is like a brainwashing spell. At this moment, when they realize that this bearded man is the master, they immediately put down their swords, bowed and said, "The master. "

Looking at the contrast between their front and back, Ling Shen made a "tsk" sound to express his dissatisfaction and contempt.

Yu Yun nodded at them, and then asked them to lead the way.

When the two of them followed one of the big men to the courtyard, Yang Pu was running around with a dozen or so people, while Shen Qi was standing under the corridor, looking at the people running around with eyes.

The big man who led the way seemed very excited, and when he stood in the yard, he shouted at Shen Qi: "Xiao Shen is in charge, the head of the house is here."

Ling Shen: "..." Why didn't the boss come?He is unhappy.

As soon as Yu Yun entered the door, his attention was all on the person running the circle, but he didn't notice that the person beside him had a bad complexion.Shen Qi who was walking towards them was the first to notice, and when he saw the sneer of their bosses, he knew that something was wrong just now, so he hurried up dog-legged.

"The head of the family." He smiled and narrowed his face, and the big man beside him stared at him. Didn't he agree that he admires the head of the house the most?Naturally, Shen Qi didn't care about other people's eyes. Seeing that Ling Shen's expression didn't soften, he said shyly, "You're tired from the journey. Let's go into the room. There's already hot tea in the room. Drink some tea to warm up."

Ling Shen listened, and glanced at him, meaning to lead the way, then turned around and tugged Yu Yun's arm, "Let's go."

Looking at this scene, Shen Qi thought that the master would throw off the master's hand, but the fact is that until he turned around to lead the way, the master still grabbed the master's wrist, and the master obviously didn't have any strange reaction... No, there was no reaction It's weird.

Shen Qi was puzzled, so he glanced at the two people behind him from the corner of his eye from time to time along the way, and then he didn't know if it was his illusion, but he always felt that the atmosphere between them seemed to be a little different from when he left the cottage.

After entering the room, Shen Qi first poured a cup of tea for the two of them, and in order to take care of their jealous and narrow-minded boss, he poured tea for him very graciously.After waiting for tea, I talked about the more popular things in this world recently.

Nothing major happened in Muzhou recently, except for the two things that were about to be chewed up by the teahouse and restaurant, there were only rumors of a dragon appearing in the mountains.It is said that people often see dragons in the mountains, and more than once, when the rumors spread like wings, it was discovered that no less than dozens of people had seen dragons.

Ling Shen didn't take it seriously when he heard the rumors. Although he himself can be said to be a strange existence here, he still doesn't want to believe that there are such magical species as dragons in this world, and snakes with horns on their heads are similar.

Yu Yun naturally didn't believe it either.

The two skipped this topic at the same time, wanting to continue to understand the situation in Muzhou, but Shen Qi has only been here for a few days, and he doesn't know much.Ling Shen couldn't ask what he wanted to hear the most, so he could only ask more curious ones.

"Where did you snatch this house from?"

"Hey, it's kind of strange to talk about this." When asked about this, Shen Qi got excited, and hurriedly approached Ling Shen and said, "Brother Yang said he was going to come here when he entered the city. I was surprised at the time." Come on, I didn't expect him to grab the place."

"Steal? Did you snatch it?" Ling Shen raised his eyebrows and put down his teacup.

"No, Brother Yang brought people into this house, and when he said he was here to rob, the people here were so frightened that even Si Ruan had no time to clean up and ran away." Shen Qi was quite proud, and added with a smile, "You But I didn’t see the scene at that time, but it was very lively.”

Ling Shen nodded, glanced at Yu Yun thoughtfully, and saw that the head of the family coughed twice with his nose covered. No matter how he looked, he looked like he was guilty of guilt.At this moment, he also understood in his heart that the mansion is the property under this name, but it is inevitable that people will know the tricks inside and pretend to be a robbery. It's just...it's so easy to rob a mansion. Will anyone believe it?

Ling Shen looked at Shen Qi, thinking that other hearsayers might not believe it, but this loyal supporter of their family would definitely believe it, because in his mind, their head of the family had no money and no background, while their head of the family was a Alright, this kind of thing that takes out one's own property to rob oneself, this kind of fraudulent thing is absolutely and definitely not done.

In the end, Ling Shen took another look at Yu Yun until he saw that he only knew how to drink tea with a cup, and then he patted Shen Qi on the shoulder vigorously: "I usually see that you are very clever, but why are you so stupid? ?”

Shen Qi: "???"
