"Miss, the obstacle has been removed, you can leave." Situ Jingyu and Lou Haiyang returned to the carriage, their bodies clean and tidy, and there was no trace of the fierce fighting they had just experienced.

Behind the two of them, the corpses of the bandits were lying strewn on the ground. Bearded men stared at the sky with wide-eyed eyes, filled with horror and disbelief. They seemed to be unwilling to rest in peace. The rich smell of blood filled the valley. The cool breeze blew, making it look even more eerie and eerie.

Qingyun nodded slightly, and Mo Xuan immediately waved his hand, and saw the corpses moving to both sides, and in the blink of an eye, a road led straight to the deep valley.

Situ Jingyu's face was calm and calm, while Lou Haiyang gently waved the folding fan in his hand, his pupils as deep as ink, faintly glowing with strange waves.

The carriage continued to move forward, and a figure suddenly appeared in front of the carriage. Fortunately, the carriage itself was not very fast, and Zhuyue reacted quickly and reined in the horse in time. However, the unprepared Qingyun accidentally hit her forehead due to the vibration of the carriage. The car wall couldn't help but frown.

When Mo Xuan saw it, he was immediately distressed and furious: "Looking for death!" With a cold and murderous palm wind, the figure was thrown to the stone wall with a bang, and then fell to the ground like a kite with its string broken.

"ah......"

Several people were silent, except for the man's painful wailing, shrill and shocking, with dust flying and blood splattering everywhere.

Looking at the deeply sunken herringbone stone wall, and then at the pale-faced woman on the ground with blood gushing from her mouth, Zhuyue's eyes shone with a cold light.

Dare to disturb the master, death is not a pity!

Wuying entered the carriage and carefully looked at Qingyun's forehead. Fortunately, it was only a little red and not bruised. But even so, Wuying's eyes were still full of rage, and he wanted to cut the woman into pieces immediately, so Take out the wound medicine and gently apply it on the red mark on Qingyun's forehead.

"Jing... Jingru doesn't mean any harm... I just... just want to thank everyone... for your life-saving grace." The woman named Jingru looked up. Looking at the crowd, her beautiful face was pale and twisted and full of tears, becoming more and more touching: "Jingru's family members... were all killed by bandits... Jingru begs everyone to go along and guide Jing along the way." Ru went to Qingshi Town...to seek refuge with her distant cousin...Jingru felt...grateful..."

Talking about his hands and feet, he climbed up to the carriage with difficulty. Bai Ruolingzhi's back was red, swollen and stained with blood, which was a bit miserable.

Qingyun shook her head slightly to indicate to Wuying and Mo Xuan that she was fine, and then turned to look at Jingru, who was as weak as pear blossoms and raindrops, with clear and deep eyes.

"We didn't save you, so how could we find a savior?"

Since the bandits killed her whole family, how could she, a weak woman, escape? Isn't this incredible?

Also, if Beard really wanted to invade her, after she was unconscious, they didn't have as good a chance to intervene as they did before intervening. Why did Beard move so slowly, without the impatient impatience of ordinary lechers?

It seems that she regards them all as fools!

Lou Haiyang looked at the woman quietly, with a trace of amusement flashing in his eyes.

Mo Xuan's palm contained at least six or seven levels of skill. She, a weak woman, survived, which shows that it was not easy. I didn't expect that he might also make mistakes.

"If you kill those bandits, you will naturally be Jingru's savior!" Jingru said with tears in her eyes: "Young lady, you don't know. We were originally merchants in Linyang County. Due to our father's poor management, the family fell into ruin, and his father had no choice but to move the family. I went to live with my distant cousin in Qingshi Town. Unexpectedly, I was blocked and robbed by bandits when I passed by. They not only robbed us of all our belongings, but also brutally murdered my family. Fortunately, my father protected me to the death and I was able to take advantage of the chaos to escape. But I just A woman in a boudoir who has no power to restrain a chicken, in the end failed, failed..."

At this point, Jingru burst into tears, and then kept kowtowing and begging: "Miss, please do me a favor and give me a ride. When I get to my cousin's house, I will thank you heavily and will never give it to you." I’m begging you to cause trouble!”

Escape from more than a hundred vicious bandits in the chaos?

A cryptic sneer flashed across the corner of Qingyun's lips, and there was no emotion in her indifferent tone: "In that case, Xiao Wu..."

"Yes, miss."

Wuying immediately jumped to the bandit's body, took off a relatively complete coat and put it on Jingru, then threw her to Lou Haiyang without mercy, and then jumped onto the carriage. The whole process was neat and tidy. , which makes people stunned.

Month by month, I raised my whip and drove the carriage forward.

Lou Haiyang, who suddenly had a beautiful woman in his arms, not only did not become distracted, but became stiff all over. Especially when he saw the meaningful glances from Mo Xuan and Situ Jingyu, he even smiled bitterly in shock.

It’s true that he often goes to places with fireworks, but that’s just...

Forget it, if this woman is left on the carriage, there is no guarantee that the Ninth Princess will not be harmed, and Mo Xuan and Situ Jingyu only have the Ninth Princess in their hearts, and they can't avoid the other women, so he should just do it.

After walking about four hundred meters, the sight in front of them made several people look stern.

But there were dozens of corpses of men, women, and children lying on the ground, and there were even infant babies. The men were headless, and the women's clothes were torn. It looked like they had been humiliated first and then killed. The carriage overturned, and the ground was stained with blood... .It’s simply shocking.

There were six or seven boxes filled with gold, silver and jewelry piled on the cart next to them. There were also two boxes full of bloody heads, which were obviously those of the headless male corpses on the ground.

A group of bandits just wanted money and killed people, so why did they cut off the heads of the men? What was their purpose?

Qingyun's bright and dark eyes flickered for a moment, but her beautiful face was calm and calm.

At this time, Jingru, who was sitting in front of Lou Haiyang, suddenly jumped off the horse, staggered and ran to the body of a headless man, crying sadly: "Dad, you are dead, what will Jingru do? Dad... ...." The sound was heartbreaking, making the world feel moved and saddened by it.

"These inhuman beasts!" Lou Haiyang's deep eyes flashed with murderous intent and anger.

Situ Jingyu stared straight at the two boxes of men's heads, his face expressionless, his eyes deep, not knowing what he was thinking.

"Let's go." Qingyun put down the car curtain and said calmly: "Wenxiu, take all your belongings." Situ Jingyu's name was Wenxiu.

"Yes, Miss." Situ Jingyu dismounted, covered the box on the cart, put the cart and the cart on his mount, and followed the carriage.

He rode the horse to Jingru's side, held her waist and carried her to the horse to sit down. Lou Haiyang pretended to comfort her softly and said: "There is no resurrection after death. Please give me my condolences, girl."

I don’t know whether it was the sadness that all her family members died innocently and tragically, or the palpitations and fear for the rest of her life, Jingru fainted again in Lou Haiyang’s arms, Liu Ye’s eyebrows were furrowed, there were tears in the corners of her eyes, and her exquisite body was trembling slightly. It was really a strange situation. "Sorrow, the wounds all over my body, are particularly lovable."

However, Lou Haiyang's eyes were as clear as water, and he looked at the carriage gradually going away, with a wry smile and helplessness on his lips.

As the sun set and the sky filled with sunset, Qingyun and his party came to the 'Laifu Inn' in Qingshi Town. Jingru said that her cousin got married here five years ago and opened this inn.

A short waiter enthusiastically welcomed several people into the inn: "Excuse me, guests, do you want to stay in the hotel or stay in the hotel?"

"Stay in the hotel." Month by month he took out a silver coin and put it on the counter: "Three upper rooms."

The shopkeeper was an extremely beautiful and charming woman. Seeing that Qingyun and the others were simply dressed but with extraordinary temperament, a glint of unknown purpose flashed in her eyes, and then she personally greeted them to the Tianzihao room on the second floor with a smile as bright as a flower.

Just as the shopkeeper was about to leave, Jingru grabbed her arm and said, "Cousin, I finally found you!"

The shopkeeper looked stunned: "You are..."

"Cousin, I am Jingru, Jingru from the Su family in Linyang County. Don't you remember, cousin?"

"Cousin Jingru?" The shopkeeper looked at it for a moment and said happily: "It's really Jingru. I haven't seen you for a few years and my cousin almost didn't recognize you. Why didn't you inform your cousin in advance when you came to Qingshi Town so that she could pick you up? Yes. Are you here, uncle, aunt, and cousins?"

Hearing the inquiry, Jingru couldn't help but throw herself into the shopkeeper's arms, lay on her shoulder and cried: "My father, mother, brothers and sisters were all killed by bandits in Yinfeng Village..."

"Are you telling the truth?" Seeing Jingru trembling uncontrollably and sobbing, the shopkeeper burst into tears, patted her back and asked sadly, "What on earth is going on?"

Qingyun, who was sitting at the table, elegantly sipped the hot tea handed to her by Mo Xuan, and looked at the two people who were grief-stricken quietly, with a calm expression on her face and said nothing.

Mo Xuan and Lou Haiyang sat on both sides of her, Zhuyue and Wuying stood behind her, while Situ Jingyu ordered the waiter to move the box to the next room.

After a long time, Jingru stopped crying and briefly narrated what happened: "Cousin, if these benefactors hadn't rescued and killed those bandits in time, our sisters would never have seen each other again." Then she turned around. To Qingyun: "Miss, this is my cousin Lu Yu's Fengxian."

"Thank you so much for saving my cousins. I will never forget them." Yu Fengxian bowed her head and said, "My benefactors can stay in the shop with peace of mind, so that the sisters can express their gratitude."

Qingyun smiled faintly and nodded: "That's enough trouble."

"How can the slave sisters be so happy that they are here to stay, so how can they dare to say that they are harassing them?" Yu Fengxian said hurriedly: "Then the slave sisters will not disturb the rest of our benefactors, and we will invite the benefactors after the food is ready." After that, Pulling Jingru out of the room.

Playing with the teacup, Lou Haiyang raised a lazy and evil smile on his lips: "These two cousins ​​are really interesting."

"They're not cousins ​​at all."

Lou Haiyang made a movement in his hand, then turned to look at Qingyun: "How can you see it?"

"Didn't you see that when Mrs. Yu heard that Su said she was her cousin, there was a flash of surprise and confusion in Mrs. Yu's eyes?" Mo Xuan said: "After knowing the whole story, Mrs. Yu insisted on asking us to stay. But she didn't even say a word about hating the bandits, and she didn't even mention collecting the bodies of the dead for burial. Don't you think it's unreasonable? Also, when Mrs. Su lay on Mrs. Yu's shoulder, her hand pinched Mrs. Yu's neck. They have their own lifeline, and the hidden weapon in Yu's hand is also pressed against Su's waist, so do you think they can still be cousins?"

Lou Haiyang curled his lips disdainfully, but in his heart he had to admit that Mo Xuan was very observant and reasonable, especially he had a better understanding of Qingyun.

Mo Xuan didn't take it seriously, looked at Qingyun who frowned slightly, and said clearly: "Do you suspect that they are coming for us?"

"Will we find out soon?" Qingyun's eyebrows contained coldness and worry: "I was wondering what the purpose of those bandits cutting off their heads was?"

"Someone is using their own hands to kill a good person and take credit for it!" Situ Jingyu walked in at the right time and closed the door tightly.

Kill good people and take credit?

Lou Haiyang's expression was shocked. He looked at Qing Yun and Mo Xuan's expressions and seemed to agree with what Situ Jingyu said. Then he looked at Zhu Yue and Wu Ying who were guarding the door. Lou Haiyang felt balanced. It seemed that he was not the only one making the fuss. ,only......

"How do you conclude that someone killed a good person and took credit for it?"

"Such things happen from time to time in the army." Situ Jingyu sat opposite Qingyun, with a look of helplessness on his face: "I carefully inspected the corpses of the bandits and found that they did not have any soldiers on their hands. There are traces left by the practice of holding weapons, but some people are wearing boots and clothing exclusive to the army, which can only show that someone is colluding with them."

Killing good people for meritorious deeds in the military has been around since ancient times. How easy is it to put an end to it?

The former general of the Shenrui Battalion once killed innocent people for military glory. Emperor Lei Lei was so angry that he beheaded everyone in his family, but he did not publicize it to the outside world. Fortunately, it never happened again after he took over the Shenrui Battalion.

Lou Haiyang suddenly realized: "It's the Youwei Guards of Laiyang County stationed a hundred miles away from here." Qingshi Town is under the jurisdiction of Laiyang County.

"I'm afraid this matter is not that simple." Qingyun's beautiful face contained a clear aura: "Yinfeng Village blocked the road, robbed money and killed people. Obviously, it didn't happen overnight. Why did the government find nothing in the investigation every time, and finally let it go? Why didn't they do it in time? Report to the imperial court for a purge? Are the people in the government really too cowardly and incompetent? Or is it the right-wing guards who are covering the sky with one hand?"

"You doubt..."

"Wuying, take my token and go to Shenwu Camp immediately, just say..."

Qingyun whispered a few words in Wuying's ear, and Wuying then left quietly. According to this, Shenwu camp was about three hundred miles away. I hope it's not too late. Qingyun's lips raised a devilish sneer: "Dark Ten , lead 30 people to Yinfeng Village quickly, and the remaining people will follow An Thirteen’s command and closely monitor the movements around the inn and the people in the government office.”

"I obey your orders!"

Lou Haiyang's heart was turbulent, but Qing Jun's face remained calm: "Miss, do you think this matter has anything to do with the government office?"

"I think there will be a good show tonight, Mr. Lou, just wait and see." Qingyun took a sip of the tea that Mo Xuan refilled with hot water, smiling inexplicably.

At the same time, in Yu's room in the backyard of the inn.

While applying medicine to Su Jingru's seriously injured back, Yu Fengxian asked sternly: "Didn't you say it was just acting? Why did you kill the people in Yinfeng Village?"
