"Let me think about it......"

Xue Jinyi grabbed the chicken leg from his bowl and stuffed it into his mouth.

"Eat well first."

Pu Yangxuan felt that the chicken legs she had touched were exceptionally delicious, and her appetite was immediately aroused.

The two of them had dinner, took a walk to eat, and then planned to take advantage of today's fineness and rest early.

Unexpectedly, as soon as they returned to the house, there was a knock on the door.

"Aunt Cui, are you there?"

Xue Jinyi heard that she was a young girl who sold handkerchiefs during the day, and she wanted to talk to her about follow-up cooperation, "Maxima often has, but Bole does not often have", the little girl who looks forward to the stars and the moon and waits for the "people who know", she must want to grasp the opportunity and promote her feelings in order to make a lot of money.

"Let's just say we're resting." She instructed Qinglan.

Although it is important to make money by pretending to be a merchant, in the matter of recuperating and dealing with the remnants of the previous dynasty, no matter how much it used to be, it was a floating cloud.

Qinglan went to open the door, but she didn't expect her to refuse before she could open her mouth, and the young girl's delicate and crisp voice sounded first, breaking the tranquility inside and outside the courtyard.

"Aunt Cui, I have thought of a new trick again, do you want to take a look? In this world, I am the only one who can think of and embroider such a beautiful pattern! ”

"Girl, girl!" Qinglan stopped the young girl's momentum rushing in, "Our big boss and the eldest lady have already rested, what's the matter with you, will you come back tomorrow?" ”

"Rested so early?" The young girl was a little incredulous, and stood on tiptoe to look at the wing, "What a pity that is......

"Can the girl speak softer, don't make noise about the big boss and the big lady to rest." Qinglan persuaded: "They are old, they have slept lightly, and they have come all the way from Shouzhou, so they have to rest well, otherwise they can't slow down." ”

The young girl sighed in disappointment, "Okay...... Then I'll come back to Aunt Cui tomorrow. ”

"Girl, walk slowly." Qinglan nodded, and was about to close the door, when she saw the young girl leaving step by step, she didn't notice that someone happened to be passing by, and several people happened to bump into each other, and almost fell on her back.

The young girl seemed to hit the wall, was ejected, and fell to the ground.

The person who was hit by her staggered two steps, and then scolded angrily: "Which thing that doesn't have long eyes dares to stand in the way of Lao Tzu?" ”

The young girl fell and was scolded again, and her eyes were watery, "Woo, I didn't mean to ......"

"That's it!" The man was about to scold again, but his companion tugged at his sleeve first, "We need to hurry, don't delay here." ”

The scolding let out a heavy snort, almost stepping on the young girl, swaggering away.

Qinglan squinted, a hint of discoloration flashed in her eyes, and hurriedly turned around and returned to the courtyard, not forgetting to close the courtyard door before leaving.

"Eh-" The young girl's cry was muffled.

She sighed helplessly and looked sadly at the closed courtyard door.

"If you make such a big noise, you will be woken up, how nice is it to just meet me?"

However, only the wind answered her.

Qinglan ran into the wing room in a hurry, and shouted in a low voice: "The owner, lady, those people from the West Night Ancient City are leaving!" ”

The bed tent was immediately lifted, revealing the faces of Xue Jinyi and Pu Yangxuan.

At the same time, Jin Yang also came.

"Those people acted."

Pu Yang Xuan immediately jumped out of bed, took out a night robe from the cabinet next to him, and quickly draped it on his body.

"I'll go over and see, and if the time is right, I'll do it right away." While getting dressed, he said to Xue Jinyi: "Otherwise, I'm afraid it will be difficult to find an opportunity." ”

"Okay." Xue Jinyi nodded, she didn't expect those people to make a move so quickly.

It had just rained during the day, the mountain road was not easy to walk, and it was even more dangerous in the middle of the night, so I left in such a hurry, I didn't know if I was planning to leave this place, and I would make plans in the future, but I was going to kill directly in the miasma valley and find trouble with Shen Qingmo.

She watched Pu Yangxuan's figure disappear into the night, put on a dress and got up, and instructed Qinglan: "The two of us quietly tidy up the cellar, so as not to disturb others, so as not to cause trouble." ”

The night was too quiet, for fear that there would be a way forward to walk towards the remnants.

The two of them crept to the house next to the cow and horse shed, which served as a storehouse, where the goods they had brought and bought and some daily necessities were piled up, and in the southeast corner of the house was the entrance to the cellar, with a simple wooden plank as a door.

Qinglan opened the wooden plank and took the lead in touching the cellar, Xue Jinyi followed behind, and after covering most of the wooden plank, she lit the lantern that was brought down.

There was nothing in the cellar, it was empty, and there was a small window in the corner that was not much bigger than a palm, and it was not easy for the moonlight to penetrate it.

Qinglan Dao put a bundle of rope and a pile of rags on the ground in his hand, and looked left and right, pointing to a few iron rings nailed to the wall, "I don't know what this thing is for." ”

If you say it's hanging something, but the iron ring is attached to the wall, and you can't hang anything.

"What kind of mechanism is it?"

After all, the design of this Zhuangzi is very well-written, maybe there are a lot of mysteries hidden in the cellar?

Xue Jinyi also leaned over to take a closer look, but no matter how she fiddled, she didn't find any way.

She could only note the location of the hoop first, and then she and Qinglan took something down from it, so that she wouldn't see that there were people locked up here when she came down from the small breathable window and wooden ladder.

After the arrangement, Xue Jinyi and Qinglan crept back to the wing room, she drew the position of the iron ring on paper, and then pondered it, so that she could pass the time when Pu Yangxuan was away.

On the other side, Puyang Xuan followed the group of people from the West Night Ancient City out of Zhuangzi.

These people were obviously prepared to pay for their debts, and instead of paying for food and lodging, they climbed over the walls and got through the dogs' holes, bypassing everyone, and going over the courtyard walls from secluded places into the dark and dreary woods.

Pu Yangxuan looked in their direction, not towards the miasma valley.

Maybe a rendezvous with other accomplices?

He gestured to the people around him, and the group dispersed and continued to follow.

The group sprang non-stop, slowing down after about a moment, until they finally came to a hidden cave.

A whistle sounded like a birdsong, followed by a rustling sound, and then there were a few more figures in the forest.

"We've got to go."

"What's the matter, are you going to give up so soon?"

In the quiet woods, there was a soft quarrel.

Pu Yangxuan listened with bated breath.

"If we stay any longer, I'm afraid we won't all die and have no revenge!"

"That'...... Is that really the way we go now, and we'll talk about it later? ”

"I heard that Puyang Xuan arrived at Huayin County, that kid dared to play the trick of killing people with a knife, and we can too."
