Muna and another Hu woman sat in the carriage and looked at each other. The woman driving the car was very neat. After the two got into the carriage, she whipped her horsewhip and rushed out of the city. As soon as the carriage arrived at the city gate, the sound of gongs rang out in the streets of Suzhou, and the watchman shouted: "It's gone! It's gone!"
For a moment, the entire streets of Suzhou were in chaos, and flames shot into the sky in the direction of the restaurant.
The carriage left the city and walked for ten miles before stopping in a deserted village.
Linghan opened the carriage curtain and said to the two Hu women, "There are clothes in the carriage. You can put them on."
They were originally barbarians, extremely rare among the Han people, and the clothes they wore were bold and revealing. If they were walking in a crowd, they would definitely be the center of attention.
The two of them followed Linghan's instructions and changed into the clothes of ordinary Han women in the carriage.
"Come out as soon as you change it."
The two of them said to each other: Why is this Han woman so cold? Read the book
Ayana parked the carriage in a small courtyard and took the two women into the house. They did not light a bonfire, but sat quietly on the ground.
Linghan kept staring in the direction of Suzhou, praying silently in her heart: She must come back.
Muna mustered up her courage and asked this vigorous Han woman: "Girl, I..."
As soon as she opened her mouth, Linghan looked at her and asked, "Your name is Mo Na, right?"
"Yes."
"I apologize to you on his behalf."
Muna was stunned, and a sense of loss came to her heart.
Linghan continued: "I'm sorry, he lied to you, he didn't mean that. We came to Suzhou for other purposes, but don't worry, girl, to apologize, we will take you out of the devil's cave and bring you to safety The place."
Muna knew in her heart that the handsome young man she had been in contact with these past few days had an agenda. She heard from Alia that the young master brought a handsome girl with him when he came here two times before. The two of them seemed very affectionate and he was also very honest. Less than a day later, the young man came to the restaurant again and ordered her. Although he was confused, he didn't know what he was going to do, but it was always good to make money.
Until the two of them mentioned Qin Zhiyang, Muna vaguely realized that something was wrong, but she had already boarded the pirate ship. If something happened, she would not be able to escape. What's more, she has expectations in her heart. She has lived a life like this. Even if she is really cheated, it is worth dying in Suzhou.
There are many Hu women in her profession. Women in Feng Yuechang age quickly, and the wrinkles on their faces begin to deepen when they are twenty-six or seven years old. Once they lose their beauty, they will no longer have the opportunity to interact with rich and powerful customers, and they can only accompany those low-class customers. In a few years, even the last bit of beauty will be exhausted... To be honest, she doesn't know where those old women have gone. They seem to have disappeared from this world without a trace, as if they had never existed. .
Muna smiled miserably and asked, "Girl, where are you taking us?"
"There are two places for you to choose. The first is Chang'an. There are many barbarians there. You two women will not arouse suspicion when you get there. We will pay to help you open a store. As for what to do, it depends on You're on your own. The second one is Luoyang. We have some friends in Luoyang. You don't need to do anything when you get there. You can live in peace for a while."
In Chang'an, Zhu Mingyu's brother-in-law can be entrusted. With their family's strength, it will not be a problem to open a small store to support the family. Not to mention Luoyang, at least Li Fenglan would definitely be willing to help the two of them.
The two Hu women did not know much about the Central Plains. The closest place to the Central Plains they had been to was Liangzhou.
Another woman asked in a low voice: "Which one is closer to us?"
"Chang'an."
She looked at Muna: "Mouna, let's go to Chang'an."
Muna bit her lip: "I, can I follow you? Don't worry, girl, I know your relationship with the young master, and I won't think twice about it. You saved us, and I am willing to stay with you. , as a slave!"
Linghan shook his head: "It's not that I don't believe you or him, it's just that our trip is full of dangers... Miss Muna, it's best for us to forget each other in the world, which is also good for you."
Muna still wanted to hold on, but she heard footsteps coming from the yard. Ayana stood up and drew her knife, protecting the two of them behind her.
"Linghan, how are you?" It was Xu Qingchen. Linghan breathed a sigh of relief and opened the door.
Xu Qingchen's tall figure almost covered the entire door, not even the moonlight could penetrate.
Ayana replied: "We are fine, how about you?"
"Don't worry, I'll be fine too... It's not a good time to stay here for a long time, so just go on your way overnight."
Muna looked at the expressions of the two talking from the side. They really cared about each other and believed in each other... If they didn't believe it, which woman would dare to let her man go to such a place?
A carriage was driving alone on the northwest trade road late at night, slowly heading towards Chang'an. Behind them, the fire in Suzhou Restaurant had stopped. The archers hidden in the city disappeared without a trace.
Behind a certain sand dune, three men with bows and arrows on their backs poked their heads out and stared at the carriage from a distance.
"Senior brother, you don't need us to keep an eye on you, right?"
"Uncle Master asked us to see which direction they are going. Now we know, eastward. Let's go back."
Another person asked: "Brother, tell me...why did uncle do this? Isn't our mission just to watch Qin Zhiyang? If we can't stand it anymore, just kill him. Why bother?"
"What do you want me to say about you? How many times has my uncle taught you a lesson? I told you not to believe Ye Yu Xiaozhu. Our cooperation is not strong and we have to leave ourselves with a backup plan. These two people are obviously related to the Xianren Hall It has a bit of a relationship, whether we want to establish a foothold in the Central Plains or return to Shu, we must establish a good relationship with Jianghu, as long as both parties are in place."
"I still don't understand."
"You want to go slowly."
…
In the carriage, Linghan saw two frightened and tired Hu women sleeping next to each other. She opened the curtain and walked out of the carriage, sitting next to Xu Qingchen.
Xu Qingchen asked: "Aren't you going to sleep?"
"How can I sleep? Tell me, what did you ask?"
Xu Qingchen shook his head and said disappointedly: "He was killed before he said anything."
Ayana was surprised: "Killed? What do you mean?"
"Those archers were killed with three arrows... Before he died, he said that he was indeed related to what happened nineteen years ago, but Boss Yao... it was not him who killed him."
"Perhaps it was a quibble before death?"
"It's possible."
"Why did those archers kill him? Weren't they protecting him?"
Xu Qingchen replied: "Maybe it's not protection, but surveillance. It's just that I don't understand why they didn't kill Qin Zhiyang at the beginning, but only did it when we came to the door. Moreover, those killers were not interested in me and had no intention of killing Qin Zhiyang." I mean to take action."
Ayana pondered for a moment: "Could it be that... I have the ability to kill, but try not to kill him unless we find his head?"
"It's possible... I'm slow in thinking, but I think you're right about one thing."
"What's up?"
"The relationship between Ye Yu Xiaozhu and the mastermind behind the scenes is not monolithic. Tell us that the name Qin Zhiyang should be part of Ye Yu Xiaozhu's plan."
"Why are they doing this?"
Xu Qingchen shook his head again, lifted up the black robe on his body, and wrapped Ling Han in, protecting her from the strong northwest wind. He replied in a low voice: "I can't figure it out either. Let's wait until we meet Miss Li and let her think about it."
"Hello."
"What's up?"
"Go and apologize to me in person tomorrow."
"I see."
