The official carriage did not stop anywhere in the city, but passed through the city. Xiao Chunqiu and the others followed closely, but always kept a certain distance to avoid being discovered.
The carriage left the city gate and traveled north for another ten miles. Finally, it stopped in front of three thatched huts that were deserted. However, these three thatched huts were really too shabby and it really didn't look like anyone would live there. It’s a place, but it happens to be inhabited.
At this moment, in the small courtyard in front of the thatched house, there is a beautiful middle-aged woman doing farm work there, and a six-year-old child is also playing there. The beautiful woman is just like this While doing the farm work in his hands, he looked at the child smiling gently, showing a happy scene of ordinary life.
But when the beautiful woman suddenly saw officers and soldiers coming, she immediately put down her farm work, worriedly hugged the six-year-old child, and hurried into the thatched hut.
And those hundred tigers immediately surrounded the entire small courtyard and the three thatched huts.
In the darkness, on top of a giant tree where the whole scene could be watched, Wei Wucan was watching all this. He looked at Xiao Chunqiu and asked, "Xiao Chunqiu, is that beautiful woman the person you are looking for?"
"no!"
Wei Wucan thought for a while, and then said, "Then...could it be that child? What are you doing with a child, your son?"
When Xiao Chunqiu heard this, he immediately raised his hand and slapped Wei Wucan on the back of the head, "I said Wei Wucan, what are you thinking about every day? How could such a shrewd person like you give birth to a person like you? Pack up the goods.”
Wei Wucan rubbed the back of his head, "You seem to have said this before."
"Okay, stop arguing!" Murong Qiuxue on the other side interrupted them, "Look, that beautiful woman walked out again."
Xiao Chunqiu and Wei Wucan both turned to look, and saw that the beautiful woman had already walked to the center of the yard. After disappearing for a while, the beautiful woman's temperament changed and she became domineering. She was holding a handle in her left hand. The slender white sword, with his fingers pressed against the guard, seemed to be about to draw the sword.
Only then did Murong Qiuxue realize that the beautiful woman hurried in not to escape, but to settle the six-year-old child first.
At this time, a young man with a long sword at his waist and a face like a jade stepped forward and said, "How brave! How dare you step forward with a sword? It's not fast..."
But a voice suddenly came from the carriage, "Lingchi, get out of here!"
But the voice was a bit sharp, and it was hard to tell whether it was a man or a woman.
The young man who was called Ling Chi immediately stepped aside and stood side by side with the same young man with a beautiful face.
"Long time no see, Mrs. Qi." A voice came from the carriage again, as if the people inside had no intention of coming down.
The beautiful woman seemed to recognize who it was, and he sneered, "It turns out to be Eunuch Yu Heng in the palace. Why are you here?"
"Sure enough, it's him..." Xiao Chunqiu frowned.
"Superintendent Yu Heng?" Wei Wucan was confused and couldn't help but wonder, "Who is that?"
"He is the chief eunuch in the palace. The distribution of eunuch positions in the Western Chu Palace is complicated. The fourth-grade official eunuch has the title of palace supervisor, the fifth-grade official eunuch has the title of palace supervisor, and the sixth-grade official eunuch has the title of deputy palace supervisor. The eunuchs of the seventh grade of official positions hold the title of servant. These eunuchs are responsible for carrying out all affairs in the palace and performing etiquette in compliance with the imperial edicts. They are also responsible for handling correspondence from various departments of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, collecting money and food from external treasury, screening and transferring Mentoring the eunuchs in the palace, inspecting the opening and closing of various gates, and patrolling the fire and candle gates, etc. Each official eunuch has corresponding powers, and they are all first-class masters."
"A first-class master?" Wei Wucan couldn't help but be excited.
Xiao Chunqiu ignored him and continued: "As for Eunuch Yu Heng in the carriage, he is actually the eunuch in charge of the above-mentioned official positions."
The carriage that had been silent for a long time on the other side finally heard a voice again, "I came here to find someone and wait for someone, so where is Mrs. Qi now?"
Mrs. Qi frowned slightly, "I don't know the person you are waiting for, and the person you are looking for is destined to not be seen."
"Oh?" Yu Heng said suspiciously, "Mrs. Qi, do you want to use force? You alone may not be able to defeat so many of us, so I would like to advise you to hand over that person!"
"Dream!" Mrs. Qi finally pulled out the sword in her hand.
Eunuch Yu Heng sighed, "Mrs. Qi, why bother? You are destined to be unable to hide the person I am looking for."
"Although it was my father-in-law who saved us two years ago, we have no way out for a long time, so why bother talking about this!" Mrs. Qi raised her sword and pointed angrily in the direction of the carriage.
"Okay!" Eunuch Yu Heng suddenly laughed, "Mrs. Qi practiced Yue Nu's sword technique. It was said at the time that 'one sword can cut off dust and look back from thousands of miles away', but I don't know if the sword technique today has improved, so why not just Let my apprentice give it a try! Lingchi!"
The young man who was called Ling Chi pulled out the sword from his waist. Mrs. Qi's eyes were stern and she clutched the Yue Nu Sword in her hand. She did not seem to relax her vigilance because she was facing a seven or eight-year-old boy.
"Watch it!" Ling Chi yelled angrily, and with a lunge, the sword in his hand was already stabbing towards Madam Qi, but Madam Qi didn't say anything, and swung her long sword to meet her.
"One sword cuts off the dust, and you can look back thousands of miles away." At this moment, Wei Wucan was a little troubled in the dark, "I always feel like I have heard it somewhere, but I can't remember it..."
"One sword can extinguish the smoke and make people look back from thousands of miles away. That's right! You have indeed heard that she was once famous in the world. She is the daughter of Yin Panshou, the former head of the Tianshan Sect, Yin Shuzhu, the Yue Nvjian."
Yue Nu's swordsmanship is not an ordinary swordsmanship, it is a swordsmanship that only women can practice. This set of swordsmanship focuses on the word "Vietnam", that is, the sword move that surpasses the opponent also kills people in one leap, so it will only have a continuous flow. Constant offense, no defense. Yin Shuzhu has not picked up a sword for many years since he was famous in the world, and now he is the husband and godson. Therefore, his realm has plummeted, and now he can only barely maintain the Vajra mortal realm.
However, the young man in front of her happened to be in the Vajra Mortal Realm, and his research on swordsmanship was definitely not inferior to that of her senior, who had been studying for a long time, and he was not giving in at all at this moment.
I saw the long sword rolling in Ling Chi's hand and slashing close to Yin Shuzhu's back. He raised his head and struck the sword without even looking. Yin Shuzhu hurriedly turned around and swung his sword to block, but was hit by the sword and was knocked back four steps.
"At such a young age, the swordsmanship is so vicious!" Yin Shuzhu couldn't help frowning. The sword just now would have pierced her head if she wasn't careful.
"Vicious?" But Lingchi sneered, "Your sword is weaker than mine. It's because of your poor martial arts. How can you blame others for being vicious?"
