"I'm fine!" Luo Xin said softly. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Hearing that Luo Xin was fine, Wan Daquan breathed a sigh of relief, turned his head and scolded those guards:

"Don't you want to chase me? Idiot! ”

"Forget it!" Luo Xin shook his head and said, "You can't catch up anymore." ”

Wan Daquan and the others' faces turned red with a bang, and they lowered their heads one by one and didn't dare to look at Luo Xin. Wan Daquan suddenly raised his head and said:

"My lord, please go back to the house, don't stand on the wall, it's dangerous here."

Luo Xin glanced at Wan Daquan, and Wan Daquan's face turned red. Only then did I remember that if it weren't for Luo Xin's martial arts, I am afraid that he would have been killed by the killer at this time. The killer was discovered by Luo Xin first, but they slept like dead pigs one by one, and even the people standing guard did not find the killer. Thinking of this, he glared at the guards who were standing guard with murderous eyes.

"Poof!" The guards stood on their knees, and wiped their knives at their necks.

"Forget it!" Luo Xin's voice sounded in time, and the hands of the guards were stunned, Luo Xin looked at them and said:

"The strangeness of the people in the rivers and lakes is not something you can prevent, be more vigilant in the future!"

"Master Xie!" The guards stood up, their heads bowed, their faces full of shame.

"How many scouts do we have?" Luo Xin looked at Wan Daquan.

"Eight!" Wan Daquan immediately replied.

"Secretly send four scouts to monitor the post station outside, don't do anything, just know who the target is."

"Yes, sir!"

Wan Daquan immediately called the four scouts and whispered a few words, and the figures of the four scouts quickly disappeared into the night. Luo Xin came to the window, bent down and picked up a bamboo tube from the ground, knew that it was a misty incense, threw the misty incense to Wan Daquan who was following him, and returned to his room, Wan Daquan followed into the room, and said in the future:

"Lord Hou......"

Luo Xin waved his hand and said, "I don't blame you for this matter, it's the assassin's martial arts that are too high." ”

As soon as Luo Xin's words fell, he saw a guard walk in and said, "Master Hou, the official of the post station asks to see you." ”

"Tell them it's okay!"

"Yes! Master Hou! The guard withdrew.

"Master Hou!" Wan Daquan's heart moved: "That assassin is probably hiding in the post station, and we will search door to door. ”

Luo Xin glared at him and said, "Is your head an elm pimple?" The people living in this post station are all Ming officials, and you asked me to search door to door? Publicize it, does Ben Hou still have a foothold in the Ming officialdom? ”

"This ......"

"That's it! Just be more vigilant in the future, you go down. ”

"Yes, Master Hou!"

Wan Daquan retreated, Luo Xin looked at the broken window, shook his head, pushed the door and walked out. I saw Wan Daquan standing outside, and he was on duty there in place of the guards, and when he saw Luo Xin coming out, he hurriedly saluted:

"Master Hou!"

"Find me a room."

"Yes! Master Hou! At this time, Wan Daquan also reacted, and hurriedly led the way to a room, Luo Xin walked into the room and said:

"Make me a pot of tea!"

"Yes, Master Hou!"

Luo Xin sat at the table, holding a cup of tea in his hand. If it weren't for the complicated things in my heart tonight, I couldn't sleep, and I got up all night over and over again, I'm afraid I would have been stunned by that killer and then killed.

It is also a coincidence that Luo Xin felt thirsty when he woke up for the last time, so he came to the table to drink tea, and felt stuffy, so he wanted to push open the window to breathe, but when he looked at the window, he found the small hole in the window. Immediately, his heart was a chill, for this kind of Jianghu method, Luo Xin had read a lot of novels in his previous life, and immediately knew that someone was going to kill him. But he was afraid that he would go out rashly, startling the assassin and letting the assassin escape, so Luo Xin returned to the bed as before, only this time he did not lie on the bed, but sat on the bed, with his feet on the ground, ready to rush out at any time, and took out a dagger in his hand, staring at the window, which was what happened later.

After such a toss, seeing that the sky was about to dawn, Luo Xin also felt sleepy, thinking that after the assassination just now, there should be no more assassins, so Luo Xin put a long sword under the pillow, and lay down on the bed to sleep.

Besides, Lu Fang, since his two men left, he sat at the table and waited quietly. However, as time passed, his two subordinates had not returned, and there was not the slightest movement from Luo Xin's side, so he gradually couldn't hold back, and his face gradually showed a look of anxiety. Later, he could no longer sit still, and stood up and walked back and forth on the ground.

Looking up at the sky, it was already nearly four watches, but his two subordinates still did not come back, and there was no movement on Luo Xin's side, which made his heart more and more uneasy, just when his patience was about to reach the extreme, he suddenly heard a noise from Luo Xin's courtyard. He hurried to the window in one step, and tried to push it open to look, but when his hand touched the window, he stopped, slowly withdrew his hand, and stood there with his hands up, pricking up his ears and listening.

After less than a quarter of an hour, there was silence on Luo Xin's side. But he didn't see two of his men return, which made his heart hang. When he heard the voice coming from the post station, he knew that someone had come out, so he turned around and came to the door, pushed the door and walked out, and saw many officials in the post station walking out, talking in a low voice.

"Brother Yu, what did you hear just now?"

"I think I heard an assassin."

"Is someone going to assassinate Luo Hou?"

“…………”

Lu Fang's eyes froze, and he saw that the post chief of the post station was walking towards Luo Xin's courtyard in a panic, groaned slightly, and followed with a move, and at the same time arched his hand to the surrounding officials:

"Let's go see Luo Hou too!"

"Exactly, exactly!"

"Go along! Let's go! ”

They followed the postmaster to the outside of Luo Xin's courtyard, and they were stopped by the guard, and after a while, the guard turned back and said:

"Master Hou is fine, please go back!"

At such a time, everyone couldn't force them to see Luo Xin, so they went back one by one. Lu Fang returned to his courtyard, and saw that his guards were still there looking curiously, so he walked straight back to his room, and after entering his room, he closed the door with his backhand, and came to the table in three steps and two steps, grabbed the teapot on the table, and drank the pot of tea at the teapot spout, and then put down the teacup, and cold sweat oozed from his back.

So far, his two subordinates have not returned, which can't help but make him worry about whether those two people have been caught by Luo Xin, and whether they are interrogating his two subordinates at this time.

If two of his subordinates were really caught by Luo Xin and asked him, then he would be in danger. Although he is also a fourth-grade official, he is of the same grade as Luo Xin. It stands to reason that even if Luo Xin interrogates him, he can deny it, and then go to the capital to fight a lawsuit, with the background of his old Lu family, he may not have no way to live.

But......

Everyone knows that Luo Xin has the identity of a martial artist in addition to the identity of a literati. Once Luo Xin determined that he was the murderer behind the scenes, he did not play his cards according to common sense, and sent someone to assassinate him, what should he do?

Cold sweat began to ooze from his forehead, his body began to tremble slightly, and as time passed, his heart became more and more uneasy, and his body trembled more and more, and finally he could no longer stand up, and sat on the chair.

It's getting brighter!

Lu Fang's heart was still flustered, and his face had become abnormally pale. Two of his men still hadn't returned, which made him feel more and more uneasy.

Suddenly, he heard a noisy sound coming from Luo Xin's courtyard, and he was so frightened that his whole body softened, and a voice appeared in his heart.

"Luo Xin is coming to arrest me!"

But......

Then he heard a cacophony of voices gradually moving towards the outside of the inn, and soon the sound disappeared. Lu Fangteng jumped up from the chair, and at this time, he didn't know where he got the strength, so he quickly pushed open the door and waved a guard:

"Luo Hou left?"

"Back to my lord, Luo Hou just left." The guard said hurriedly.

"Did you see Luo Hou?"

"Lord Hui, I saw it."

"Come on, what is Luo Houke's reaction?" Lu Fang's gaze was fixed on the guard.

The guard shook his head a little confused and said, "No...... What a reaction! ”

Lu Fang calmed down at this time, narrowed his eyes slightly, and thought: "Could it be that his own people were not caught by Luo Xin, but injured Luo Xin?" Most likely so! ”

Thinking of this, his spirit couldn't help but lift again, but then his face froze again, and he secretly said in his heart:

"That's not right! If Luo Xin was injured, why didn't my people come back? ”

After a moment of silence, he said, "Pack up your things, let's leave!" ”

"Yes, sir!"

On the way to Datong. A figure stood in the middle of the road, but it was the little tiger dressed as a scholar beside Lu Fang. And there was a team on the opposite side of him slowly coming, the carriage in the middle stopped, Xiaohu walked quickly to the carriage, the carriage door opened, Xiaohu jumped lightly, and entered the carriage, the carriage door closed, and the team began to move forward.

Inside the carriage.

Xiaohu knelt in front of Lu Fang and whispered about the assassination of Luo Xin, and Lu Fang's face became very ugly. Ning Sheng asked:

"Are you sure Luo Xin didn't track you?"

"Villain sure!" Xiaohu nodded.

"Where's your eldest brother?"

Xiaohu's face was bitter and said, "My eldest brother is dead and has been buried by me." ”

"No trace?"

"Nope!"

Lu Fang pondered for a while and said, "You go back to Suzhou immediately and tell my eldest brother what happened." ”

"Yes!"

Xiaohu opened the door of the carriage and jumped out, asked for a horse from one of the guards, turned over on the horse, and galloped away.

Inside the carriage.

Lu Fang murmured in a low voice with a gloomy face: "Luo Xin, the southeast is not the north, even if you are the god of war, you will die!" How can the barbarians of the northern steppes compare with our family, hehe......"

Three days later.

Wan Daquan rode to Luo Xin's carriage and knocked lightly on the door. The carriage opened, revealing Luo Xin's face. Wan Daquan said softly:

"Master Hou, the scout is back."

Luo Xin's eyes lit up and said, "But what did you find?" ”

Wan Daquan shook his head in frustration and said, "No! The four scouts waited until all the officials in the inn had left, and found no clues. ”

Luo Xin pondered for a moment and said, "Let them return to the team." ”

"Yes!"

"How long will it take to get to Hangzhou?"

"There are still three days to go."

Luo Xin pondered for a moment and said, "Go to Suzhou first." ”

"Yes! Master Hou! ”

Luo Xin just wanted to close the car door, but suddenly saw that there was some desolation outside, so he poked his head out and looked ahead, and saw a mountain range in front of him, and this road passed between the two peaks of this mountain range, Luo Xin couldn't help frowning, there was no one in front of him, and there was a caravan behind him. There were about two hundred people. Luo Xin said to Wan Daquan:

"Great power, what do you think of the terrain?"

Wan Daquan is also a veteran, and he is also a general, who has led soldiers, but now he has come from the turbulent north to the peaceful south, and he didn't pay attention to the terrain, and now when he heard Luo Xin say, he looked ahead, and then gasped:

"What an ambush place."

When the words fell, his face changed, and he remembered that Luo Xin was assassinated a few days ago, and couldn't help stammering:

"Master Hou...... Thief ...... They won't...... So bold, right? ”

"Even the post station dared to go in and assassinate Ben Hou, what else did they dare not do?"

"What about us?"

"Stop first!"

"Yes, Master Hou!"

At this time, even if Luo Xin did not give an order, Wan Daquan did not dare to let Luo Xin take the risk, and immediately ordered the team to stop. A defensive formation was put on. The caravan behind them stopped when they saw Luo Xin in front of them, and some inexplicably stopped.

"Daquan, go to the back and find a businessman who often walks this road."

"Yes, Master Hou!"

Wan Daquan left in a hurry, and soon walked over with a thin middle-aged man, who came to Luo Xin, bowed and said:

"Grass people meet your lord!"

Luo Xin nodded and said, "You often take this path?" ”

"Yes, my lord, the grass people have been coming and going on this road for more than ten years."

"Have there been bandits here?"

The merchant thought for a moment and nodded, "It appeared ten years ago, but it was quickly surrounded and suppressed by the government, and there have been no bandits since then." ”

Speaking of this, he suddenly reacted and said, "My lord, do you think there will be bandits here?" ”

Luo Xin nodded and said, "Not bad!" ”

The middle-aged merchant smiled and said, "No, my lord, I just passed by here last month. ”

When the words fell, a flattering look appeared on his face and said, "My lord, the grass people can open the way for you." ”

Luo Xin just wanted to shake his head, but suddenly stopped and said, "Then you guys go over first." ”

"Yes, sir!"
