Su Qiqi's heart trembled and she hurriedly jumped onto the roof.
As soon as she stabilized her body, she saw Yan Ruoyu fighting with two masked men in black. The three figures were spinning like tops, which was dizzying.
Su Qiqi shook her head to wake herself up, and then joined the battle with her sword.
With her joining, most of Yan Ruoyu's pressure was relieved.
After the two sides went back and forth for more than ten rounds, Qin Chuan also rushed over with the shopkeeper and doctor.
Qin Chuan explained to the shopkeeper and the doctor, arranged the bodies of Mrs. Yang, Miss Yang and Lord Yang, and then flew over to help Su Qiqi and Yan Ruoyu.
At this time, the situation of the war completely reversed. Su Qiqi was able to take the time to carefully identify the man in black who broke into the inn at night and set fire to the hotel.
As expected, Su Qiqi took a closer look and recognized that one of them was Lin Quan who had escaped from Luohua Villa before, and the other one turned out to be the eunuch who broke into the escort agency the night before.
How come the two of them are together? Could it be that the remnants of the Yeyou Alliance also have followers in the palace?
Su Qiqi pondered for a moment, then suddenly made up her mind and shouted straight to the point to the two men in black: "Lin Quan! Are you an old acquaintance of this father-in-law?"
As soon as she finished speaking, one of the men in black paused for a moment, then turned to look at her. A gloomy voice replied: "Miss Nangong, you have such good eyesight! You can recognize me like this! You are indeed a rising star in the martial arts world!"
Su Qiqi ignored his sarcasm and asked in a cold voice without expression: "Master Lin, why did you want to murder Master Yang together with this eunuch?"
Lin Quan snorted disdainfully, and then lazily said: "Who asked him to stumble me from behind and seek death by himself... I can't blame me!" After that, he adjusted his position and stabbed out with a sharp sword. He came to Su Qiqi's door.
Su Qiqi was stunned for a moment, then subconsciously raised her sword to attack. Qin Chuan, who was on the side, caught sight of Lin Quan's sudden attack on Su Qiqi, and his anger suddenly boiled. He took advantage of the situation and swung away the eunuch's attack with his sword, and then attacked Lin Quan with Su Qiqi.
The eunuch looked at Qin Chuan's strange behavior, glanced at Qin Chuan and Su Qiqi with some confusion, and then showed a look of enlightenment.
He straightened his clothes and rested for a while before getting ready to step forward to help Lin Quan out of the siege. However, as soon as he took a step forward, Yan Ruoyu swiped at him with his sword. The two fought together again.
In the corridor, the remaining escorts dutifully guarded Mrs. Yang and Miss Yang to protect their safety.
The doctor Qin Chuan called did a detailed injury examination on Mr. Yang and determined that Mr. Yang died of asphyxiation from inhaling a large amount of smoke after being seriously injured in a sneak attack.
Mrs. Yang and Miss Yang were heartbroken when they heard this. They cried sadly for a long time before they cheered up. Then, with the help of the bodyguards, Master Yang was buried and placed in Yizhuang outside the city, guarded by several bodyguards with high martial arts skills.
In a blink of an eye, it was nightfall again. Su Qiqi, Qin Chuan, and Yan Ruoyu tried their best to let Lin Quan and the eunuch escape.
The three of them were all a little frustrated. They knew very well that Lin Quan's escape again was like letting the tiger return to the mountain. There would be more troubles in the future. However, there was no way, with the current strength of the Escort Bureau, it was still unable to eliminate Lin Quan and the evil behind Yeyou Alliance. The power is wiped out in one fell swoop.
It seems that I need to practice more! I have been busy receiving escorts and sending escorts these days, and I have slacked off a lot in my daily practice... If this continues, it may be difficult to protect my own life, let alone protect others!
Thinking of this, Su Qiqi secretly made up her mind to strengthen the daily training of the entire escort team from tomorrow on, and to improve the combat effectiveness of the entire team!
A few days later, Miss Yang and Mrs. Yang came back from Yizhuang and told Su Qiqi a shocking secret.
It turned out that Lin Quan and the eunuch set fire to steal a family heirloom that Master Yang was carrying.
As for the origin of the treasure, Mrs. Yang also explained it in detail, and sincerely expressed her hope to entrust this family heirloom to Su Qiqi for safekeeping, and she also hoped that Su Qiqi would help her keep the secret.
Su Qiqi followed Mrs. Yang and Miss Yang to the room where they lived, got the treasure, and put it in her luggage. Then, she called Qin Chuan and Yan Ruoyu and told them in detail about escorting the treasure and Mr. Yang's family back home.
Qin Chuan and Yan Ruoyu were both surprised and moved. The two went back to their room to simply pack their bags, then met up with the other escorts escorting the coffin, and then the group continued on their way to Songjiang Mansion.
A few days later, Su Qiqi and others finally reached the boundary of Songjiang Mansion. After safely delivering the coffins of Mrs. Yang, Miss Yang and Mr. Yang to the Yang Mansion and handing them over to the Yang clan, Su Qiqi and others originally planned to return that night.
Unexpectedly, as soon as the carriage drove a certain distance, it encountered pouring rain.
At this time, the escort team was already exhausted, and it was too dangerous to continue on such a stormy night. Su Qiqi decided to let everyone camp in the nearby woods. Wait until daybreak before continuing on your way.
The next day, the sky had just cleared, and Su Qiqi and others were preparing to continue on their way, when suddenly the sound of rapid horse hooves came from the road behind them.
Su Qiqi, Qin Chuan and Yan Ruoyu all turned around and looked at each other. In the flying dust, a man who looked like a servant rolled out of the saddle in disgrace and stumbled to Su Qiqi and the others. He shouted anxiously: "Miss Nangong, help! Save my wife and young lady!"
Su Qiqi listened to his pleading and quickly grabbed the reins of the horse and asked with concern: "This little brother, who is your wife? What kind of difficulties have you encountered?"
Qin Chuan and Yan Ruoyu also looked at the servant, waiting for his answer.
The servant took a few deep breaths and stammered: "I... I am Yang Yun, the young servant of the Yang Mansion... Your Escort Bureau escorted the coffins of our wife, young lady and master back to the mansion yesterday..."
Su Qiqi and Yan Ruoyu both took a breath of air when they heard this, and asked in unison: "What happened to your wife and young lady? Did you encounter another assassin just after you arrived at the house?"
Yang Yun was slightly startled, shook his head, and said sadly: "It's not an assassin... it's a domestic thief..."
After hearing his words, Su Qiqi, Qin Chuan, and Yan Ruoyu couldn't help but look at each other. Su Qiqi became even more confused, what is going on? Who could he be talking about as a house thief?
Just as he was thinking about it, Yang Yun looked at Su Qiqi and the others, swallowed nervously, and continued: "Miss Nangong, come with me first. If it's later, our wife and young lady may also encounter something unexpected... "
Su Qiqi briefly exchanged opinions with Qin Chuan and Yan Ruoyu, and decided that the three of them would go to the Yang Mansion to find out what was going on, while the other escorts would stay where they were, waiting for news about them.
After everything was arranged, Su Qiqi, Qin Chuan and Yan Ruoyu followed Yang Yun, whipped their horses and hurried back to Yang Mansion.
There were many carriages and horses parked outside the gate of Yang Mansion, and there were bursts of noise in the courtyard, as well as the faint whistling of swords.
A trace of doubt arose in Su Qiqi's heart again. It was so late, how could so many people come to Yang Mansion to cause trouble?
