Lonely City without Frost

Chapter 14 Chapter 14

When Zuo Wushuang woke up, she was already in a carriage. She only had the impression that Sikong slapped her on the back of the neck with the palm of her hand, but she couldn't remember what happened afterwards.

Originally asked why Sikong Zhaixing came here, the other party didn't answer and she didn't think much about it, because although he is the king of stealing kings, he is still a person after all, especially since he likes to drink as much as himself, he always has nervous thoughts in his hands sometimes. Find something profitable to do.

Sikong Zhaixing is capable and able to keep his customers' identities secret, so many people find him in this kind of business.

She knew this very well, and she was fooled only because she was not cautious enough. She let down her vigilance when she knew it was him, so no one could blame her.

Even she herself agrees that Sikong Zhaixing and Huamanlou are not friends if they just have friendship, so what qualifications do they have to ask them to treat her like friends.

Of course I thought so, the anger and helplessness in my heart were still uncontrollable.

Probably anticipating that it would only be a matter of time before she opened her acupuncture points after waking up, Sikong Zhaixing did not touch her acupuncture points, but tied her hands and feet and threw them in the carriage.

The carriage was also surrounded by black curtains, which gave her a very strange feeling, only the sound of horseshoes and the almost inaudible sound of leaves rubbing against Zuo Wushuang's ears.

She couldn't figure out the reason why Sikong Zhaixing did this, but the most important thing for the time being was not the reason, how to escape was her headache.

At first, she thought it was just her hands and feet being tied, but after trying to break free for a long time, she noticed the unusualness of those ropes. It was impossible to break them with brute force, and she didn't know what kind of material they were made of.

The driver outside probably noticed her movement, and quickly inserted a hidden weapon, which stuck to her left neck and stabbed on the edge of the carriage with a ding sound.

"You shouldn't have meddled in this matter, you don't like Lu Xiaofeng in the first place, don't you?"

The speaker's voice was mediocre, without any characteristics at all, it was the kind of voice that would be forgotten as soon as he heard it, and it was precisely because of this voice that Zuo Wushuang felt even more powerless.

Who was Sikong Zhaixing hired to do this?

Her going to help would basically not be of any help to Lu Xiaofeng, why did she make such a big fuss?

Could it be that the Tsing Yi Building was really related to the attack on him?

Countless thoughts flashed through his mind, but in the end he couldn't grasp anything specific, Zuo Wushuang snorted coldly, "I don't like Lu Xiaofeng, but without my help, there is Ximen Chuuxue."

"If he faces Dugu Yihe, he may not be able to retreat unscathed. If it is you, you will have an advantage over him."

She froze for a moment, and instantly understood what the coachman meant.

Indeed, Dugu Yihe's swordsmanship may not be much better than Ximen Chuuxue's, but Ximen's swordsmanship can only kill people. If he meets that kind of opponent, the only way to die is to win.

"The first thing Lu Xiaofeng thought of was that asking you for help was a scruple. Don't tell me that I can't even figure out such a simple truth."

"It's none of your business."

"Miss Zuo, I advise you not to waste your efforts in vain. If you can untie the rope easily, I won't even have all the acupoints touched."

Zuo Wushuang cursed the damned Lu Xiaofeng several times in his heart, but there was no other way, once that person said it, he couldn't suppress his worry about Ximen Chuuxue.

"I don't mean anything malicious, and I know Miss Zuo is going back to Baiyun City after solving these problems. Wouldn't it be nice to give you a ride in advance?"

——What a ghost!

Zuo Wushuang couldn't help but wanted to curse, but when the first syllable was still lingering in his throat, a strange fragrance suddenly wafted in from outside the black curtain.

When he smelled it, it was too late to hold his breath, and the last thought that flashed in his mind was that Lu Xiaofeng, you really deserve to die.

If there is anything wrong with Ximen, she will never die with that Lu Xiaoji!

That person didn't lie, she was already in an inn when she woke up, and the boy sitting on the bed staring at her with interest was the young man who had called her to be his teacher in Baiyun City back then.

"How could it be you?!"

"I would like to ask why Miss Zuo suddenly appeared here?"

She glanced at him suspiciously, and then found that the ropes on her hands and feet were gone, "I was tied here."

Obviously her frank words didn't convince him, the young man curled his lips, "Miss Zuo, lying is a little bit level, right?"

"Believe it or not, why are you here?"

"My cousin Ye and I just came here to relax, but yesterday we received a letter saying that there is something very important for us to see in this inn."

He added the accent on the word "dongxi", and his eyes became playful, "Ms. Zuo will fall into this kind of situation, I really can't think of it."

"..." Too lazy to talk nonsense, Zuo Wushuang felt like he was going to starve to death, shook off his clothes and jumped up from the bed, "Is there anything to eat?"

Seeing her unrefined movements, the boy suddenly sighed, and then left the room with his sleeves flung.

After a while, the waiter came in with the dishes, Zuo Wushuang didn't even bother to see what the dishes were, so he picked up the chopsticks and started eating.

I don't know where I am now, and I don't know whether I have been hungry for a few days, and I am almost dehydrated.

"Hmm..." It was only when I was eating the third chicken leg that I felt my strength recover a bit, and I almost choked when I heard the footsteps outside, "Hurry up and give me water...!"

She followed her breath, looked at the white porcelain cup handed over to her hand, took it without thinking, drank it in one gulp, and then took a breath, "...ah, I almost choked to death."

The moment she finished speaking, she felt something was wrong, and when she turned her head and saw Ye Gucheng in white, she almost choked again.

——...This is the same as stealing snacks in Wanmei Villa while the housekeeper is not paying attention, but being caught by Ximen, you can't look directly at it!

But no matter how indescribable the feeling in his heart was, Zuo Wushuang still straightened his expression calmly, "Ah, thank you City Lord just now."

He could still accompany her to put on a show, and after nodding, he still had that iceberg expression.

"Why is Miss Zuo here?"

She looked at the oil on her hands, and consciously took a towel on one side and wiped it several times to tidy up her appearance, "I was helping a guy, but I was blocked halfway, so I was conspired to send here. As for what happened in the middle?" I don't know either."

Speaking of this, she suddenly remembered the conversation she had with the coachman, and immediately became worried again, "Can I ask the city lord something?"

"What's the matter?" Ye Gucheng was as concise as ever.

"Is there any news about Ximen Chuuxue circulating in Jianghu these days?"

Although he had just seen her embarrassment when she was extremely hungry, the undisguised concern on her face at this moment surprised him even more.

After a brief surprise, Ye Gucheng told her that Ximen Chuuxue was being hunted down by the Emei faction.

Ximen was hunted down, which meant that it was Dugu Yihe who died. She was a little relieved that the remaining boys and girls of the Emei Sect probably wouldn't pose any threat to him.

"Thank you, the city lord, for letting me know. I have never forgotten that I promised to guide your cousin's swordsmanship, but right now I have one more thing to do. I will rush back to Baiyun City immediately after I finish."

The gentleman honors his promise, although she thinks she is a villain, but this matter will not be reckless.

Ye Gucheng's expression was still dull, and he nodded before he spoke about his original intention of coming, "There is also a letter in the letter I received before, which was to be handed over to Miss Zuo by name, so I came here to hand it over to the original owner."

She froze for a moment, took the letter out of his sleeve with some doubts, and opened it without hesitation while he was still present.

"There's nothing I can do about kidnapping you. I'll treat you to a good drink next time. Also, Ximen and Huamanlou are fine."

The words "King of Stealing the King" are not generally ugly, but Zuo Wushuang couldn't help laughing, even if that guy still had some brains and didn't mention Lu Xiaoji.

The evening wind blows in from the window, and the cool breath of the person beside him fills the whole room.Even if he was just standing in this ordinary inn, Ye Gucheng was not a bit vulgar, and Zuo Wushuang, who had seen countless people, couldn't help being stunned at this moment.

Restraining the smile on her face, she spoke again, "Has the City Lord heard anything about Tsing Yi Building recently?"

Ye Gucheng is not a talkative person, but he is the only one she can ask right now, if she waits for that young man to come over again, she will probably talk about things and get angry if she doesn't get the point.

His expression remained unchanged, and then he nodded slightly, "The host in Tsing Yi, Huo Xiu, has disappeared."

--disappear.

What does this word mean? I'm afraid he can't explain it clearly, but it is true that everyone in Jianghu now knows that Lu Xiaofeng broke down the frightening Tsingyi Building, and the owner Huo Xiu is nowhere to be found.

For the rest, it is estimated that only the few parties involved know about it.

She was still a little worried, and after thinking about it for a while, she left again, "Although today is just a meal, I will repay the favor between the city lord and... that young master. Never break your word."

"It's far away from Wanmei Villa. There are no horses or bank notes. Miss Zuo, how are you going to get there?" No, just thinking of that guy, he had an expression of 'come and beg me'.

Zuo Wushuang also smiled, and took out a jade pendant from his bosom, "No matter where the token of the seventh son of the Hua family is, as long as there is his bank, I can get the money. .”

It felt so good to choke him that she almost couldn't help raising the corners of her mouth.

Anyway, she can pay back the money owed to Huamanlou slowly, but if she owes these two people more favors, she will not be eaten to death by this kid in Baiyun City in the future!

Zuo Wushuang took his sword back into his hand, jumped directly from the window and was about to leave.
