Twelve steamed buns

The next day Xiao Peiyang took Twelve on the road, leaving Director Yang to take charge of the internal affairs in the village.Along the way, Xiao Peiyang and the groom plus the groom, there were only three people in total.Of course, the hidden guards lurking in the dark are not counted.

The carriage hurried forward for five days, and finally arrived at the Anyang Forest outside Anyang Town. As long as you pass through this forest, you can reach Anyang Town.This Anyang forest is not too big, not too small, and it will take a long time for a carriage to drive there.However, Xiao Peiyang and his party met robbers blocking the way on the way.

The carriage stopped, Xiao Peiyang still closed his eyes tightly, while Twelve at the side lifted the curtain and planned to go out to find out what happened.In front of the car stood several rows of big, big, and thick men, the leader of whom was wielding a pair of giant axes.Seeing this, Twelve hurriedly got off the shaft, stepped forward to cup his fists and said:

"Heroes, my master is in a hurry to go to Anyang Town. Can you please step aside? This is just a petty gesture, not a respect."

As he spoke, he took out a few banknotes from his pocket and offered them with both hands.

Seeing this, the leader was unmoved, his eyes were empty, he only glanced at the bank note in Twelve's hand, and then swung the giant ax in his hand, and the strong man behind ordered him to attack in the direction of Twelve and the carriage. .

Twelve took a few steps back to avoid the attack of several strong men, and couldn't help frowning at this scene.The hidden guards no longer hid in the dark, and several black shadows blocked the carriage like lightning, and dealt with several yelling strong men one after another.Unexpectedly, the gang of robbers would have a helping hand, and big men with wooden weapons kept popping out from the surrounding woods.

Twelve sided to the challenge, thinking in his heart, the actions of these robbers seemed to have been planned for a long time, and they were directed at them from the very beginning.But when did Unfeeling Villa have any problems with such a bunch of rough guys?

At this time, the leader of the robbers had already quietly walked around behind Twelve, swung his huge ax and was about to swing it down, but when Twelve noticed it, he bent down to avoid the attack, moved two steps to the side, and then slapped the robbers with his palm. chief.Unexpectedly, the robber leader looked bulky, but his body was very flexible. He dodged to dodge Twelve's palm, and then attacked again with a giant axe.

Twelve responded to his attack and said to him:

"Heroes, I just ask you to make way, why are you so unreasonable. If the silver taels are not enough, you can discuss it again, and start your hands without saying a word. This is not in accordance with the rules of the green forest."

The leader of the robbers heard the words but didn't answer, he just attacked blindly, and forced him to the twelve facades.Twelve was helpless, and the moves in his hands became more and more fierce.Unexpectedly, at this time, the stomach throbbed faintly, and the movements of Twelve's hands became hesitant. The leader of the robbers took advantage of the opportunity and made fierce moves again and again, intending to take Twelve down.Twelve's arm was also scratched by the ax this time, and his movements were even more flustered.

Affected by the pain in his abdomen, Twelve was forced to retreat again and again, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead, looking very embarrassed.And the surrounding dark guards had to deal with the continuous stream of strong men fighting all around, and they had no time to take care of him.

Just when Twelve narrowly escaped an attack, someone nearby shot the leader of the robber with a stone bullet. The leader of the robber staggered and nearly fell down.Twelve looked at the person who came, but he was his master, so he couldn't help but be taken aback:

"master?"

The robber leader had already turned his target to Xiao Peiyang, and Xiao Peiyang didn't care. After evading the robber leader's reckless attack, the robber leader fell to the ground and died in less than ten rounds.As soon as the leader of the robbers fell, the surrounding robbers also followed the tree falling and scattered, and scattered in all directions, but they were captured again and again by the hidden guards who had been annoyed by them.One by one knocked unconscious and threw them on the ground.

Xiao Peiyang was dissatisfied with Twelve's inability to deal with his opponent just now. He turned around and was about to reprimand him, but he saw Twelve's face was pale, his forehead was covered in cold sweat, his body was shaking slightly as he pressed his abdomen with his hands.Can't help being startled, a few strides walked to Twelve's side and hugged Twelve's shoulders, looked at Twelve's injured arm, and asked in a cold voice:

"Is there poison on the axe?"

At this time, Twelve already had unbearable pain in his abdomen, but his stomach was also rolling, so he could only endure the strangeness and replied:

"Master, there's nothing serious, the subordinate just suffers from unbearable abdominal pain, it will be fine after a while."

As soon as the words fell, there was the sound of horseshoes kicking from the end of the woods, and everyone present couldn't help but tense up, again?When the sound of horseshoes approached, only a Confucian scholar in white led the crowd to stop in front of Xiao Peiyang and others.The Confucian scholar in white got off his horse and knelt down on one knee to Xiao Peiyang, and said loudly:

"Mu Hanqing met the owner."

Xiao Peiyang nodded, and the guards around him returned to the dark place.Mu Hanqing lowered his head and couldn't see Xiao Peiyang nodding. He didn't care if he didn't get a response, and stood up spontaneously.Raising his hand to signal to the people behind him, he lifted all the robbers who fell on the ground back.After these people also dispersed, he slightly bent over to Xiao Peiyang and said:

"Villa Master, these robbers were infected with the poison of the southern border and controlled by others, so they attacked the Villa Master and others."

"Gu poison? What's going on?" Xiao Peiyang frowned.

"It's not clear yet. There are also residents in the town who have been poisoned by Gu and wantonly attacked others. The government is still investigating, but there is still no clue."

"When did this happen?"

"About half a month ago."

Half a month ago?Before Xiao Peiyang started to think, he suddenly felt the strength in his hands increased, and when he looked again, he found that Twelve's abdominal pain was so painful that he couldn't support his body, and he leaned most of his body on him.Xiao Peiyang hurriedly beckoned Mu Hanqing to go over:

"Come and see, what's going on with him?"

Seeing this, Mu Hanqing walked up to Twelve in a few steps, stretched out his hand to grab the Twelve Vein Gate, and probed carefully.After this exploration, Mu Hanqing's eyebrows piled up higher and higher, and finally asked hesitantly:

"Have you been feeling unwell recently?"

Twelve paled and said weakly:

"Beginning more than ten days ago, I often lost my appetite, felt vomiting, drowsiness and dreaminess, and sometimes had abdominal pain. But this time it seems to be particularly painful."

Mu Hanqing frowned even more like orange peel, took out a medicine bottle from his arms, poured out a pill for Twelve to swallow, and said to Xiao Peiyang:

"Master, let's take him back to Anyang Town first. If his situation is as I expected, then there is no time to delay."

When Xiao Peiyang heard the words, he picked up Twelve and walked towards the carriage. The groom stopped being stingy when he heard the words, and whipped the carriage as hard as he could, for fear of delaying his life.Mu Hanqing followed them on horseback, staring at the carriage, thoughtfully, sometimes frowning, sometimes laughing, and behaved extremely strangely.

Xiao Peiyang ignored him, Twelve in his arms had already passed out, even so, he was still moaning from time to time.What kind of disease could make this forbearing dark guard so weak?Xiao Peiyang looked calm on the face, but he was thinking wildly in his heart.
