Xu Yunling lingered around the temple for a long time, but finally went back to the temple. However, she did not go through the front door, but climbed into the courtyard through the back door, and then went directly to her senior brother's room.
Xu Yunling's senior brother Pei Wenyi saw his junior sister push in the door and hurriedly got out of bed and asked with concern: "Ling'er, what's wrong? Are you so flustered?"
Xu Yunling took a breath and whispered with a sad face: "Brother, we may not be able to stay here anymore..."
"Did you go to Weiyuan Escort Bureau to steal the treasure and failed?" Pei Wenyi patted her head affectionately and asked softly.
"Well, they seemed to know that I wanted to steal the treasure, so they set a trap in advance... If it weren't for the help of the spirit rat, I almost wouldn't be able to escape..." Xu Yunling pouted and said depressedly.
Pei Wenyi smiled and said with relief: "It's okay, you tried your best... The leader of the alliance will probably not force others to make things difficult..."
Xu Yunling rolled his eyes when he heard this and complained: "That insidious guy can't be so generous... If he knew that I didn't get the treasure, he would probably have the intention to kill... Senior brother, your injury is getting better. Really? How about we sneak away..."
Xu Yunling looked at his senior brother expectantly. Pei Wenyi smiled bitterly and nodded: "As junior sister said, let's pack our bags now..."
The two simply packed up a few clothes and important items, carefully opened the door and prepared to go out. Unexpectedly, as soon as the two opened the door, they saw Protector Qian walking from the other end of the corridor.
Xu Yunling hurriedly closed the door again and said to Pei Wenyi: "Brother, let's go out through the window..."
So the two quickly climbed out of the window. As soon as I landed, I heard the door of the room being pushed open, and then the voice of Protector Qian came: "Miss Xu! Mr. Pei!"
Their faces changed drastically, and they didn't dare to stop any longer. They hurriedly ran towards the back door.
Brother and sister Xu Yunling were also lucky. The leader of the You Alliance went out to do some business that day. Although Protector Qian was good at martial arts, his brain was weak. He never thought that Xu Yunling and his sister would dare to sneak away. He thought they were just going shopping nearby. When he saw no one in the room, he went to do other things first.
After the Xu Yunling brothers and sisters luckily escaped from the Yeyou League Temple, they hired a carriage and planned to go to the nearby Qigu Town to join their aunt.
The two of them rode a carriage and drove all the way. When they were about to arrive at Qigu Town, they were stopped by the leader of the Yeyou Alliance. It turned out that the leader of the alliance came back after finishing the matter and asked Guardian Qian to ask Xu Yunling to discuss the matter. Guardian Qian went to Xu Yunling and Pei Wenyi's room again. No one was found, and after a careful search of their rooms, they found that their luggage was also missing. Only then did they guess that they had probably failed to complete their mission and fled in fear of crime. So the leader of the Yeyou Alliance personally led people to pursue him all the way.
Although Xu Yunling was afraid of the thunderous methods of the leader of the Yeyou Alliance, he could only bite the bullet and deal with the opponent at the moment.
"Leader, you misunderstood. We are just going to visit an old friend... We will be back in two days..." Xu Yunling tried his best to squeeze out a smile and said with a guilty conscience.
"Yes, we are not...escape...escape..." Pei Wenyi added stammeringly.
"Hmph! You all know yourselves whether you have the intention to escape... I won't waste any time talking to you... If you want to survive, just go back with me..." The leader of the Ye You Alliance replied coldly.
Xu Yunling and Pei Wenyi looked at each other, bit their lips, and refused: "No, we would rather die than go back with you..."
The leader of the Yeyou Alliance narrowed his eyes, looked at the two of them with some amusement, and snorted contemptuously: "You really don't want to go back with me?"
Xu Yunling nodded vigorously and said stubbornly: "I'm not going!" Pei Wenyi was silent for a moment, then shook his head and said: "If junior sister doesn't go, I won't go either!"
"Okay! You guys have chosen the road yourself, don't blame me for being ruthless!" After saying that, he was about to take a cruel blow. At this moment, Protector Qian suddenly carefully pulled down the hem of his clothes and whispered: "Leader, let them live for now, wait until we get the treasure..."
The leader of the Yeyou Alliance nodded slightly when he heard this, and said with a wicked smile: "I will give you another chance. If you get the two treasures I want within three days, I will let you go! Otherwise, no matter where you escape, I will capture you. , imprisoned in the Soul Beast Palace, your life will be worse than death!" After saying that, he waved his big hand and floated away.
Protector Qian glanced at Xu Yunling with a complicated expression, and left with his men. Xu Yunling actually saw a hint of kindness in his eyes, and couldn't help being stunned. After a while, he came back to his senses, fell to the ground slumped, and said in annoyance: "If I had known that this guy would give me a little more time, we wouldn't have had to escape. Now...I have to find another place to live now...and I have to spend my own money to eat..."
Pei Wenyi smiled naively and comforted him with a clumsy tongue: "Ling'er, it's okay. I still have a few taels of silver here... We can find an ordinary inn to stay for a few days..."
"Well, I have no choice but to do this for now... When I get the treasure and finish the delivery, maybe the alliance leader will ignore the past grudges and reward us with a large sum of money..." Xu Yunling forgot his worries in a blink of an eye and smiled broadly.
Pei Wenyi saw her smiling and giggled too. Then he picked up the baggage on the ground, looked around, and said, "Ling'er, the sun is setting, let's find a place to stay as soon as possible..."
Xu Yunling agreed and followed Pei Wenyi towards the main road. Just now, the two of them were stopped by the leaders of the Yeyou Alliance. The carriage driver was afraid of being implicated, so he had already driven away secretly. The two of them walked aimlessly in this remote place for a while, becoming more and more panicked.
Xu Yunling couldn't hold his breath, looked around for a while, and said worriedly: "Brother, do you think we are going the wrong way... We have been walking for so long and we haven't seen a single house..."
Pei Wenyi scratched his head and said with a confused look on his face: "I haven't been here before either... How about we go further..."
Xu Yunling sighed, took out a coin from his waist, muttered something, and then tossed the coin upwards.
After the coins fell to the ground, she picked them up and put them back into the purse around her waist. Then she pointed to the fork on the left and said cheerfully: "Brother, let's go this way..."
Pei Wenyi hesitated for a moment, then silently followed her to the left side of the road.
The two of them came to a corner, and suddenly a horse galloped towards them, almost hitting Xu Yunling who was walking in front.
Xu Yunling had been holding back her anger for a long time, but it was about to explode. She opened her eyes wide, pointed at the handsome man on the horse, and yelled: "Hey! Are you blind? Do you know how to ride a horse? You hurt me. Can you afford it?"
The man on the horse originally wanted to apologize, but when he saw her being so unruly, he suddenly made a face and said jokingly: "Hey, this is a post road exclusively used by the imperial court. It can only be used by the imperial court to transport grain and grass and deliver military orders. Who are you, these unruly people, running away without permission?" Here you are, obstructing me from doing things, and yet you are still so arrogant? Believe it or not, I will arrest you!"
"Hey! You said it's a post road, it's a post road. What proof do you have? Don't think that you can scare this girl by putting yourself in front of your face! I followed my master and senior brother to travel in the world when I was twelve years old. What kind of liar have you never seen? Yes..." Xu Yunling glanced at the man who looked like he was from a dandy family, and replied unceremoniously.
The man's face turned red with anger when he heard this, and then he grabbed the horse's reins with one hand, took off a token from his waist with the other, handed it to Xu Yunling, and said, "Humph! I am Xiao Kai, the imperial guard with a sword who has been granted the title by the emperor! This is my token!"
Xu Yunling came forward, took a closer look, was startled, and thought to himself: He is really an official! He wouldn't really catch himself, would he?
