witch chaotic country

Chapter 662 One Step Ahead

At nightfall, Tan Yaoyu changed into men's clothing, disguised himself a bit more, and sneaked out of Tan Mansion with Bei Ning and others.

Although Tan Yaoyu could borrow his father's token to go out of the city overnight, but that was too eye-catching.

They hid near the city gate until dawn. The group didn't even ride a horse. They rented a carriage and pretended to be farmers nearby. They left Jiankang with the first group of people who left the city in the morning.

The few people looked around while walking, and after confirming that they were not being followed, they changed to fast horses at the post station and hurried on their way in the starry night.

Along the way, Tan Yaoyu's thoughts were chaotic.Red Dragon obviously has something important to hide from them.If not, how could the Fire Worship Sect use the people in Jiankang just for a "medicine man"?This is at the risk of exposing the identity of the side concubine of King Pengcheng.

Based on the information that Tan Yaoyu has so far, it is most likely that Ahura is seriously injured and urgently needs an adult "medicine man" to maintain his evil spirit.And Xingzhelou has already handed over the "medicine man", so the Fire Worship Cult had to save the red dragon.

If this was the case, Tan Yaoyu would not panic anymore, the internal strength of the Red Dragon was gradually lost after the golden needle sealed the acupoint, and now there is probably not much left.Even if Ahura really "sucked" the internal energy of the red dragon, it probably wouldn't have much effect.

Compared with Ahura, Tan Yaoyu is more worried about Zimo.Is it really just a coincidence that the counterfeit currency workshop and the robbery of the Red Dragon happened almost at the same time?Was it really not to divert Xingzhelou's attention?
When Yao Yu rushed back to Qiuchi with his head full of wild thoughts, he was slightly relieved to see that the city was still in order and there was nothing unusual.

Without delay, several people sneaked into the backyard of the Liang Mansion, and they were not noticed until they reached Liang Weng's bedroom.

Liang Weng's servants were startled when they saw Tan Yaoyu and the others suddenly appear, but they couldn't stop crying after recognizing the person who came, "Xian Ji, you are finally back. The Prime Minister is finally waiting for you."

Tan Yaoyu nodded slightly, told him "don't say anything about my return", and went to see Liang Weng in the inner room.

Although he had already made psychological preparations all the way, Tan Yaoyu's heart was still full of sadness when he saw Liang Weng's dejected face.

Qin Zhongzhi and Zhu Rong arrived one step ahead of Zhao Yu, and they were guarding Liang Weng at this time.

Yao Yu looked at Zhu Rong and asked silently about the situation. Zhu Rong shook his head at Yao Yu dejectedly, and walked out of the dormitory silently.

Tan Zhaoyu took a deep breath and held back the tears welling up in her eyes. She went to Liang Weng's bed and sat down, calling softly: "Liang Weng...it's me...I'm back... "

Tan Yaoyu called three times in a row, Liang Weng gradually woke up, stared at Tan Yaoyu for a long time, and gradually Yaoyu's face was reflected in his cloudy eyes.

"Xian Ji..." Liang Weng's call seemed to exhaust all the strength in his body.

At this time, Zhu Rong came in from outside the house with a bowl of medicine, but hesitated when he walked to Liang Weng's bed.

Everyone immediately understood that this might be the last strong medicine to hang their lives. If they really drank it, after the light came back, they would run out of oil and die.

Tan Yaoyu immediately turned his head to wipe his eyes.

Liang Weng felt that the power in his body was draining rapidly. He knew that his time was approaching, so he could only slowly move his eyes and look fixedly at the bowl of medicine.

Tan Zhaoyu understood Liang Weng's meaning, gritted his teeth and took the medicine bowl from Zhu Rong's hand, "I'll feed you."

Liang Weng showed a vague smile at the corner of his mouth, he swallowed hard, and drank half a bowl of medicine.

After drinking the medicine, Liang Weng fell into a deep sleep again.

Tan Yaoyu didn't know when the medicine would take effect, even though she was exhausted from traveling for days, she still insisted on staying by the bedside.

When the moon was in the middle of the sky, Tan Yaoyu heard a sound of clothes rubbing, she immediately woke up from a light sleep, and leaned over to look at Liang Weng.

Although Liang Weng's eyes were still empty and didn't know where to look, they were obviously brighter. He raised his hand tremblingly, as if he wanted to salute Yao Yu with fists. Tan Yaoyu grabbed Liang Weng's hand and said: "Save these vain gifts for the future. Do you still remember the five-year agreement with me. It's only the third year now, are you going to give up?"

Liang Weng knew that Yao Yu was trying to provoke him, but he showed a relieved smile, "Old minister... I have already lost this bet... You... the current Qiu Chi... is a hundred times better than the old minister's heart... just let it go." Hell...meeting old friends...veteran has no shame..."

Tan Yaoyu couldn't bear it anymore, tears fell like broken threads, "What nonsense are you talking about? Where is this going?! Just wait for me, wait for me for another two years, and I will show you how Qiu Chi dominates grand scene."

Tears flowed from Liang Weng's yellow eyes, "Old minister... I really want to take a look... It's a pity... I have to go first..."

He pointed vigorously to the lacquer box next to his pillow, and motioned for Yao Yu to take a look, "The old minister firmly believes... even if I leave... Qiu Chi will surely prosper... I have nothing to worry about... Only two people want to Give it to Xian Ji..."

Tan invites rain to open the box, and there are two pieces of parchment inside.One is the body deed of Yingyan's mother.The other is a confession, which is the confession of the counselor of Yinping County who was bought by Tan Chengbo.

"These two people..." Liang Weng took a deep breath when he said this, Tan Yaoyu hurriedly stroked his chest to comfort him.

"Both of them are locked in the West Side Courtyard of this mansion...From today...they will be handed over to Xian Ji..."

Tan Yaoyu nodded with red eyes, she didn't blame Liang Weng for hiding these two people.After all, Liang Weng is not sure how Tan Yaoyu will treat the people of Qiuchi, he always has a back hand to restrain Yaoyu.

Now that Liang Weng's death is approaching, he handed the two of them over to Yao Yu, which is enough to show that he really trusts Yao Yu.I believe that Tan Yaoyu will never be the faint king of the fish and meat people.

"One more thing..." Liang Weng had difficulty pronouncing it.Yao Yu fed him a few more sips of water, and then Liang Weng continued: "Xian Ji must be careful of the people around her..."

Tan Yaoyu was stunned for a moment when he heard the words, apparently not understanding Liang Weng's meaning.But Liang Weng seemed to be speechless.Yao Yu had no choice but to turn her head to look at Qin Zhongzhi who had arrived one step ahead of her.

Qin Zhongzhi hesitated for a while, and then said: "I have asked the servants in Liang's mansion. First of all, few people know the location of the water prison. Moreover, there is a mechanism in the water prison. The red dragon will be shot to death by random arrows."

Qin Zhongzhi sighed, "I don't know where the Fire Worship Sect learned these details, and rushed directly to Liang's mansion, injured Liang Weng, snatched the key, and arrested the only old servant who knew the way. Robbed."

Tan Yaoyu felt cold all over, "You mean...someone around me revealed these things to the Zoroastrian Cult?"

Qin Zhongzhi didn't answer, although he didn't want to think so, but at present, this is the only possibility.

Tan Yaoyu clenched his fists tightly, now only Yingfeng and Zimo are indistinguishable.Both of them knew about the situation in the Liang Mansion...but Tan Yaoyu couldn't accept it, because one of them betrayed himself.
