Wei Yu had no time to explain and urged Anxian Cheng to leave this place of trouble quickly. Unexpectedly, as soon as he pushed his hand to the car door, he heard a loud noise, mixed with a harsh whistle.
In a short time, about a hundred people rushed out from the forest and behind the rocks, and surrounded the two people.
Anxian Cheng was shocked. He looked back at Wei Yu and then at the group of bandits in front of him: "You...what do you want to do?"
The minions moved away to both sides, making way for the leader in the middle. With one hand on his hip, he shouted at Wei Yu: "Who are you, and why did you call our two leaders just now?"
When Wei Yu saw them rushing out, he had to adapt to the situation. He held his hands in front of him and said bravely: "My surname is Wei. I used to work as an errand in the Runan Yamen and had some contacts with Brother Lin."
The little leader looked puzzled, but Leader Lin on the mountain was indeed originally from Runan, which was not bad. His expression softened a little, and he asked again: "What do those people just now have to do with you?"
Wei Yu yelled: "Those are the Jianghu people I once offended in Gongmen. I saw that they were aggressive, so I had to temporarily borrow the name of Brother Lin and Brother Song. It really worked."
The little leader looked back at the mountain and said: "In this case, you went up the mountain with us and met Chief Lin. If he is really his old friend, it is your blessing. If not, it is your good fortune to cut him off."
Anxian Cheng finally heard something fishy at this moment and guessed Wei Yu's "empty city strategy" before. What kind of good men and women were these local bandits? If they went up the mountain and exposed their secrets, they would be dead or alive.
So An Cheng hurriedly jumped out of the driveway: "Wait a minute, I am the local county magistrate. There is something urgent now, so I can't delay."
The second master thought that since he had revealed his identity, the other party would always give some face to the local parents. Unexpectedly, the young leader heard this and sneered: "Whatever is ready-made or not, you will go with us!"
A young man next to him looked at her and said, "One of the two is a pretty boy, and the other looks like a beautiful girl. No matter how they look at it, they don't look like they are recognized by our leader Lin."
The little leader said: "Humph, if you dare to pretend to be someone else, that's just right. Leader Song has been complaining about a headache recently and wants to take a bite of fresh human heart soup..." He didn't dare to offend Wei Yu easily, so he looked at An Cheng and said: "This guy is born clean, so the soup will be delicious."
An Cheng's face turned pale with fright, and he realized that these people were really vicious and lawless, beyond his expectation.
The little leader Chana said: "Come on, please these two people come up the mountain!"
After giving the order, he saw the minions rushing over in a swarm. The second master wanted to retreat, but there was a carriage behind him. He swayed and almost fell over.
Wei Yu saw the ferocity of their arrival, and An Cheng was the first to bear the brunt under the car. She didn't care that she had just sprained her foot and was about to jump out to stop them.
At this moment, a hand stretched out from the carriage and firmly grasped her collar. The person who was originally hidden in the carriage jumped out and showed his figure.
Wei Yu had already guessed that there was someone in the carriage when he smelled that smell, and knew the identity of that person.
Su Jiuyao was seriously injured, so Fei Lian fed him styrax wine. The wine had a hint of mint, which made Wei Yu instantly think of mint drink.
She just couldn't figure out why Su Jiuyao was here because he was still injured, let alone how he got into the carriage without anyone noticing.
In the morning light, Su Jiuyao, dressed in black single clothes and a leather belt around his waist, jumped out of the car and landed in front of An Cheng.
Just when a minion was about to capture An Cheng, before Su Jiuyao's feet even touched the ground, his right hand came out like a blade and hit the man in the neck.
The guy fell down without saying a word.
The surrounding bandits were shocked, swung their swords and raised their sticks, and surrounded him.
Wei Yu squinted his eyes and saw a mysterious shadow, as if entering a deserted land, knocking away four or five people blocking the way. Su Jiuyao grabbed the little leader who was turning around to escape, with his bloody fist Just when he was about to shoot him down, the leader shouted loudly: "Xiaojiu, spare your life!"
Su Jiuyao stared at the man. Just as his fist was about to fall, he suddenly heard the sound of a gong, followed by the sound of countless footsteps, mixed with the sound of horse hooves.
Wei Yu raised his head and saw a group of people running out of Niutou Mountain. One of them was wearing a green robe and looked respectable. He frowned slightly and quickly saw the scene clearly.
"Su Jiu! Why is it you!" The visitor shouted: "They reported that someone claimed to be an acquaintance of mine. Where is he?"
Su Jiuyao snorted coldly and threw the person in his hand away.
At this time, An Cheng had already run back to the carriage. Wei Yu jumped down on one foot. She looked at the appearance of the person coming: "Is it Brother Lin? When Runan said goodbye in a hurry, do you still remember me?"
Lin Li looked at Wei Yu in surprise: "You are..."
Wei Yu said: "It was at the birthday banquet of Mr. Chen in Runan Town... There were so many people there that Brother Lin didn't even remember."
Lin Li's eyes flickered. He was not a reckless person, not to mention that the other party was such an outstanding person. If he had seen him before, he would not have left any impression.
But what Wei Yu said was true. When Lin Li was in Runan, he did go to Mr. Chen's birthday banquet.
After a slight hesitation, Lin Li glanced at An Cheng and Su Jiuyao next to him, and said, "Sure enough, I was mistaken for a moment, and then I remembered. Why are you here...are you and Su Jiu on the same road?"
Wei Yu looked at Su Jiuyao and did not answer, but just said: "There is one thing I think Brother Lin might like to hear. Hu Xiang of Yelangguan colluded with Xi Di and his death is imminent."
Lin Li was shocked: "What did you say?"
"I'm the one who handled it. If you don't believe me, you can ask An County Prime Minister and Xiaojiu Ye."
Finally, it was the turn of Anxian Cheng, and the second master said hurriedly: "Yes, I have witnessed with my own eyes that all the details have been executed."
Su Jiuyao said calmly: "Are you going to give way, or are you going to fight?"
When Wei Yu heard this, he was afraid that the situation would become tense again, so he hurriedly tried to hold him, but he forgot that his legs and feet were inconvenient, so he held his arm tightly to stabilize his body.
Lin Li held his breath, looked straight at Su Jiuyao, then at Wei Yu, and finally gritted his teeth: "Get out of the way! Let them go."
An Cheng helped Wei Yu get into the carriage. Just as she was getting into the carriage, Lin Li suddenly said: "Since you told me this, it shows that you know about my grudges with the Hu family. You can take care of Hu Xiang. It shows that you have a very special background." Tongtang, who are you?"
The smile on Wei Yu's face faded. She turned back to look at Lin Li and said, "I'm just a late-minded person."
"what for?"
Wei Yu glanced at Su Jiuyao next to him and smiled: "It's just a pity that I came too late. There are some things that are difficult to fix."
Lin Li's expression became extremely strange. He closed his eyes, nodded, and said nothing.
The biggest bandits in Changhuai County are the bandits led by Song Bin and Lin Li who are entrenched on Niutou Mountain.
Others may not know it, but Wei Yu is the most knowledgeable about the news from all over the world when she is with His Highness Prince Ji Li Xingyuan. She is also extremely knowledgeable and has a strong memory, with almost a photographic memory.
Any big bandit would always place various sentinels at various places under the mountain, especially in such a strategic area at the foot of Niutou Mountain, where there is always no shortage of sentinels.
An Cheng had already alerted those people when he drove away, but they didn't know what was going on yet, so they only observed secretly and stood still.
After the second master returned, Wei Yu was on the line between life and death. He had no choice but to use the trick of "knocking on the mountain to shock the tiger" and "beating the cow across the mountain".
She made the three killers mistakenly think that the men lurking in the forest were her rescuers. Her words of "Brother Song and Brother Lin" were so intimate that the thieves in the forest were confused and even thought that she was really with her. What friendship does the leader have?
The carriage set off again.
An Cheng was in charge of driving the carriage. In the carriage, Wei Yu and Su Jiuyao were sitting face to face.
Wei Yu moistened her lips and glanced at the young man's injured hand: "You...when did you arrive and why?"
Su Jiuyao was silent. Didn't even look at her.
Wei Yu plucked up the courage and smiled deliberately: "You didn't know that I would be in danger, so you came here to protect me on purpose, right?"
Su Jiuyao was noncommittal.
She suddenly became playful and deliberately teased: "You were seriously injured and should have had a good rest. If something happens to me, how can I survive?"
The boy didn't seem to hear.
Wei Yu opened her mouth and closed it again, her smile fading.
She felt that she was already shameless enough, but facing such an ice-like boy, she seemed a little afraid to make a mistake and did not want to continue talking nonsense.
"What do you mean by what you told him?" Su Jiuyao suddenly spoke.
"He?" Wei Yu blinked: "Lin Li?"
Little Jiuye nodded: "Why did it come too late and it's hard to recover from the flood?"
Wei Yu's mouth opened slightly and finally said, "Don't you know about his entanglement with the Hu family?"
He shook his head.
Wei Yu smiled lightly, feeling helpless: "When Lin Li was in Runan earlier, he was engaged to the third lady of the local Chen family, but the third lady was attracted by Hu Xiang of the Hu family, so he used his power to force the Chen family to break off the engagement. Unexpectedly, the third lady of the Chen family had already fallen in love with Lin Li and did not want him to marry, so she committed suicide on the wedding day."
After learning about this, Lin Li rushed to Hu's house with a knife, killing several people, and then escaped, where he became a bandit.
Su Jiuyao pursed his lips: "Then you said you came too late and it was difficult to recover from the flood. Does that mean that Miss Chen's life cannot be saved?"
Wei Yu sighed: "Lin Li is outstanding in martial arts. He should be a good general. Miss Chen is beautiful and chaste. They are two people made in heaven. Now one has died and the other has become a bandit. It is easy to overturn the water and find it difficult to recover."
Su Jiuyao sneered: "The world is inherently unfair. There are many such things."
Wei Yu's eyes widened a bit, and then he smiled and said: "You are so young, why do you speak so vicissitudes of life? It seems that you have experienced a lot."
Su Jiuyao glanced at her: "How do you know I haven't experienced a lot?"
Wei Yu was at a loss for words, and Xiao Jiuye lowered his eyes and said, "Besides, I don't think you're very old, but you always sound old-fashioned and want to teach others a lesson."
"How dare I teach you a lesson, you..." Wei Yu just opened his mouth, and realized that his tone was too intimate, so he smiled and asked: "By the way, can you cook?"
Su Jiuyao said nothing, and after a while he said: "What is the 'Beifeng Snow Tower'?"
Wei Yu laughed in his heart, but his smile was filled with bitterness: "You don't know?"
Su Jiuyao shook his head. Wei Yu thought for a while and said, "Let's do this. Make me Shunxin radish soup later, and I'll tell you how to make Beifeng Snow Tower."
Little Master Jiu was a little surprised and looked at Wei Yu: "Why this?"
"Osmanthus and fresh chestnut soup will also work, stir-fried with three shredded shreds, imperial concubine's chicken, fragrant dew rice," Wei Yu recounted the treasures from his family, and his mouth watered unknowingly: "Eight-treasure meat, lotus leaf tofu..."
The carriage stopped abruptly, Wei Yu tilted backwards, and seeing his head about to hit the wall, Su Jiuyao raised his hand to block it without saying a word.
She looked at the arm protecting her in surprise, and heard Anxian Cheng outside the room ask: "What's wrong?"
There was a sound of footsteps and someone said: "Second Master, someone found two masked and unknown corpses in the forest! Report them to the official! We are investigating."
Wei Yu heard the word "masked" and hurriedly opened the car curtain.
