A knife in love

Chapter 210

When the two of them met their eyes, they both showed surprised expressions.

Zhuyue saw the opportunity very quickly, winked at Li Qiufeng, and walked lightly in the direction of the stone archway.Li Qiufeng followed behind her, feeling suspicious.

After the two walked out of the stone archway, Zhuyue didn't stop until they were under two big trees, and said, "Why are you here?"

Li Qiufeng didn't know what kind of medicine was sold in the moon-chasing gourd, so he thought for a while before saying: "I originally chased southward, but I heard that someone was going to challenge Sha Yiming, the owner of Shajiabao, so I wanted to see if this was the case. Which foolish person is so bold that he followed a group of people from the rivers and lakes to come here to have a look."

When he said this, he glanced at Zhuyue, and said: "Didn't you go to investigate the hiding place of the Liusheng clan, why did you come here?"

Zhuyue said: "That's right, I was indeed going to track down the injured killer. This man is really cunning. Although he didn't notice that I was following behind, he turned around and went to three small strongholds of the Liusheng family. I Seeing that he was meeting with several Liusheng family killers, but he never showed up to make trouble. He confirmed that no one was following him, so he rode a horse and ran towards here along the main road.

"After he got on the horse, I didn't dare to get too close. Fortunately, I made some tricks on his horse and put the 'vine incense' used by the Yagyu clan for tracking, so he didn't get rid of him. This man fled After reaching the bottom of the mountain, I saw many martial arts masters gathered there, so I abandoned my mount and went around the valley. I judged the direction he was going to escape in the valley, so I took a step ahead, and only found a big house when I arrived here. I hid in a big tree, and saw someone walking over with a horse from a distance. At that time, the distance was far away, so I didn’t recognize you. Later, I accidentally stepped on a small dead branch on the tree, and was killed You noticed it. But I saw that you were too frightened and hid out of sight, so I knew you were not from the Yagyu clan, so I felt relieved. The injured killer rushed here afterward and was taken into the house I know you are not from the Yagyu family, so I came out to see who it is, but it turned out to be you."

Li Qiufeng turned his head to look at the house behind the stone archway, feeling suspicious in his heart, how could Shajiabao be related to the Liusheng clan in such a mysterious place, could it be that Sha Yiming and Liusheng Zongyan had colluded long ago?If this is the case, I'm afraid that Murong Danyan's challenge to Sha Yiming has a lot of meaning behind it.

Zhuyue saw him groaning silently, and then said: "Is this house the Shajiabao you mentioned?"

Li Qiufeng nodded and said: "That's right. Shajiabao is a very mysterious place in the Central Plains Wulin. It is regarded as a forbidden place in the Wulin. Few people dare to come here to make trouble. But the injured killer fled all the way here, and was arrested Someone took him in. I am worried that Sha Yiming, the owner of Shajiabao, has some kind of collusion with Liusheng Zongyan in private, if that is the case, with the help of Shajiabao, it will be even more difficult to deal with Liusheng Zongyan."

Zhuyue's complexion darkened, and he thought for a moment and said, "Liu Sheng Zongyan is cautious. After knowing that Zhu Ju and I have fallen out, he will immediately evacuate his lair not far from the imperial mausoleum. Since 12 years ago, Liu Sheng A family entered the customs in a large scale and worked hard in various parts of the Central Plains. I don’t know how many hidden strongholds there are. In addition, Liu Sheng Zongyan also set up undercover eyeliners in the provincial governor’s yamen and various gangs in the rivers and lakes. He knows everything well. In the past few years, he has been in frequent contact with Fusang wanderers along the coast of Fujian, and the two parties seem to be discussing a major event. If the Shajiabao you mentioned is really a pawn laid by Liu Sheng Zongyan long ago, there is nothing wrong with it. Strange."

Li Qiufeng said: "When you were with Liu Sheng Zongyan, didn't you hear him mention this place?"

Zhuyue shook his head and said: "Although Feihua and I have always been by Liu Sheng Zongyan's side, Liu Sheng Zongyan never let us intervene in the secret matters of the clan. The internal rules of the Liu Sheng clan are very strict, and things that should not be asked Absolutely don’t ask. Kogoro Morita is regarded as Yanagyu Zongyan’s most important assistant in the clan, so I’m afraid he doesn’t know much about these confidential matters.”

Li Qiufeng's head was full of wind and clouds, and he was thinking hard about the relationship between Shajiabao and the Liusheng clan, but he couldn't find any clues after much deliberation, so he shook his head and said: "I'm afraid things are not good, let's leave this place temporarily , make another plan.”

The two walked down the hillside along the way they came.Zhuyue walked and said: "You didn't fight with others, did you?"

Li Qiufeng shook his head and said, "That's not true. But I was planning to do something just now, but luckily you were the one who came out in the end."

Zhuyue smiled and said: "I saw you hiding all the time, and I knew you were not from the Liusheng clan, so even if I showed up, you definitely didn't dare to make a loud noise and alarmed the Liusheng clan, so you just showed up openly. You had the intention to kill, but luckily you didn't do it. Your lingering poison has not been cleared, so if you can do it, then don't do it."

The two chatted and talked, and soon they saw the fire piled up by the gangsters below the mountain.It's just that the fire has been reduced a lot at this time, and most of the people have already rested.

Li Qiufeng knew that many people in the group knew him, and he didn't want to cause more troubles, so he led the group around every month and walked towards the way he came from.

The two walked for more than a mile, but they heard the snorting of horses.Then someone asked, "Brother Li?"

Li Qiufeng recognized Xiao Zhanpeng's voice, and hurriedly said, "Exactly. How are Brother Xiao and Miss Ma?"

Li Qiufeng walked over quickly with Zhuyue, but saw that Xiao Zhanpeng had already greeted him.After the two met, they told each other about their situation.It turned out that after Li Qiufeng left, another three or four groups of martial arts people rushed here.Xiao Zhanpeng didn't want to meet these Jianghu figures face to face, so he tied the horse to a tree by the roadside, and he and Ma Dongqing each found a clean place to sit down and rest.

Li Qiufeng said: "I arrived at Shajiabao, but something was wrong, so I didn't go into Shajiabao to investigate, so I rushed back."

Seeing Zhuyue following Li Qiufeng, Xiao Zhanpeng asked in surprise, "Brother Li, this girl is..."

Li Qiufeng turned his head and glanced at Zhuyue, and said to Xiao Zhanpeng: "This eldest sister is one of Liu Shengzongyan's most capable subordinates..."

Before he finished speaking, Xiao Zhanpeng was startled.But Zhuyue laughed tremblingly and said: "Why is the eldest sister not the eldest sister, it makes me old."

Xiao Zhanpeng saw that this woman had a demonic look and spoke frivolously, and his suspicions became more intense.Seeing Xiao Zhanpeng's suspicious face, Li Qiufeng was afraid that he might have misunderstood him, so he hurriedly said: "Now she has broken with Liu Shengzongyan, and she wants to deal with Liu Sheng's clan with us, brother Xiao don't have to doubt it."

Xiao Zhanpeng knew that Li Qiufeng was cautious. Since he believed in this woman, he probably had his reasons, so he nodded and said, "What's the next step, Brother Li?"

Li Qiufeng pondered for a while, and said: "Shajiabao is very likely to have colluded with Liu Shengzongyan..."

Xiao Zhanpeng let out an "ah", and at this moment, Ma Dongqing, who was a few steps away, also let out a soft cry.Li Qiufeng was startled, and said, "Miss Ma, what's the matter?"

But I heard Ma Dongqing say: "Maybe I got a cold tonight, and my head hurts..."

Li Qiufeng and Xiao Zhanpeng walked quickly to Ma Dongqing's side, and saw Ma Dongqing sitting on a stone with his head on his knees, his body trembling slightly, as if he was in quite pain.Li Qiufeng said to Xiao Zhanpeng: "Brother Xiao, you should send Miss Ma back to Liu's shop, find an inn to stay in, and then hire a doctor for her. Dragons and snakes are mixed here, and the assassins of the Liusheng clan may also be lurking around. Once you make a move, Miss Ma might be in danger if she stays here."

Ma Dongqing wanted to raise his head, but he seemed extremely uncomfortable. He only lifted half of his face, then lay down again, and said in a trembling voice: "I know that Hero Li has good intentions, but I also know the way back to Liu's shop. Hero Xiao still Stay here, give Li Daxia a helping hand, and I will ride over by myself."

Although Xiao Zhanpeng was unwilling to leave, but seeing Ma Dongqing in so much pain, he had no choice but to say to Ma Dongqing: "Miss Ma, let me take you back."

Li Qiufeng walked quickly to the side of the road, unhooked a horse, and led it to Ma Dongqing.Xiao Zhanpeng helped Ma Dongqing get on the mount, and led the horse over himself, and said to Li Qiufeng: "You two wait here for a while, and after Xiao has settled the horse girl, he will come to meet you."

After Ma Dongqing was helped onto the horse by Xiao Zhanpeng, he curled up on the saddle, obviously in extreme pain.Xiao Zhanpeng didn't dare to delay any longer, so he flew on his horse, bowed his hands to Li Qiufeng and Ma Dongqing, then took the reins of Ma Dongqing's mount, and walked eastward slowly.
