Chapter 603
Why Liu Zhongxian didn't finish talking.
Because when he said this, he reached out and pulled out the knife on his chest.
Amidst the splash of blood, the old man fell on his back, but after a while, he lost his breath.
Yun Mantang walked over carefully, and after making sure that the old man was dead, he took the knife back from his hand.
Sheathing the knife, frowning, turned to look at Su Mo, clasped his fists and said:
"Brother Wu, I am grateful to you for saving lives twice today, and I am reborn with grace.
"I thought that even though I had nothing to repay, I should go along with me all the way.
"But now... I have something to do, so I can't stay here for a long time.
"This kindness can only be repaid in the future."
Su Mo glanced at Yun Mantang, smiled and said:
"Are you going to Qiuyu Village to save that Fairy Luodie?"
Yun Mantang nodded:
"Fairy Luo Die, known as a chivalrous man, now suffers from bad luck, but she can't ignore it.
"Furthermore... Li Zhao Li is unparalleled in benevolence and righteousness, and he has done countless good deeds. For the sake of a so-called small hall master's crowning ceremony, this group of people killed people and took away the white jade bottle of mutton fat.
"There's even blood feuds from the Zhou family.
"Zhou Chongming is my best friend, he lived and died in adversity, and he has shown me a life-saving grace.
"Now that he is dead, I can only avenge this revenge for him.
"No matter what, you can't call this group of people to be free and unrestrained!"
"Um……"
Su Mo pondered for a while, then smiled:
"Brother Yun really has chivalry in his heart, if it weren't for Mr. Wu who is still busy now, he would also want to go with Brother Yun.
"Now I can't go away.
"That's all I can do. I wish Brother Yun all the best."
"Thank you, Brother Wu."
Yun Mantang laughed:
"Speaking of which, I still don't know where Brother Wu is going this trip?
"If you don't die this time, you must find Brother Wu for a drink."
"My first stop on this trip is also Centennial City."
Su Mo never concealed:
"It's just that after the trip to the Centennial City, where it will go, it may be uncertain.
"Businessmen must run around in the rivers and lakes, how can there be a certain number?
"If Brother Yun's major matter is resolved early, you can come to Centennial City to find me for a drink."
"Well."
Yun Mantang immediately cupped his fists:
"The green mountains will not change, and the green water will flow forever. Brother Wu, let's just leave here."
"Please."
Su Mo cupped his fists and saluted.
Yun Mantang was very unrestrained, he left as soon as he said, holding his own sword, and disappeared into the darkness in a blink of an eye.
Su Mo looked at his back and pondered slightly.
Then gently waved.
Xiao He took a step forward:
"Son..."
"You take a few people, sneak around, and follow him.
"If Qiuyu Village really does what Liu Zhongxian said, then find a way to get the invitation back.
"I let the white tiger follow secretly, remember not to reveal your identity.
"But if there is a conflict, kill it all, and don't leave any head and tail.
"If you can't do anything, remember to protect yourself."
Su Mo instructed softly.
"Yes."
Xiao He nodded immediately.
Then he clicked on a few people, and then followed with that cloudy back.
At this point, Su Mo looked at the corpses of Liu Zhongxian and several other Tianfeng Twelve Shamans, and searched for them.
These people didn't have much property, not even a secret letter, they just found some loose silver, which made Su Mo very disappointed.
Finally, people dug a hole and buried the bodies on the spot.
"It seems that Yun Mantang no longer trusts Mrs. Xing."
Yang Xiaoyun came to Su Mo's side at this time, and said softly:
"Liu Zhongxian's last words still worked."
Su Mo nodded:
"After all, it's a coincidence, and it's hard for anyone to say what the mystery is.
"If it's true what Liu Zhongxian said, Mrs. Xing also wanted this Qingshuang Sword as a gift to the little hall master.
"The Zhou family's handed down treasure is handed over to Mrs. Xing, or to the Twelve Shades of Tianfeng, it makes no difference.
"I can count on Mrs. Xing to avenge the Zhou family... But in this way, I will not be able to vomit in the end after all."
"Then if it were you, how would you act?"
Wei Ziyi's voice came from next to his ear.
Su Mo smiled when he heard the words:
"It's that simple... I'll still go to Mrs. Xing."
Little Situ froze for a moment:
"Why? If Old Master Xing behaves the same as Tianfeng Twelve Demons, there may be many variables to go to him, right?"
Su Mo glanced at little Situ and said with a smile:
"Little Situ is really smart and can think of this verse.
"As far as the current situation is concerned.
"Old Master Xing has two positions.
"One is that he is not as Liu Zhongxian said, all this is just an accident.
"Then just do things according to Yun Mantang's original plan, and ask Mrs. Xing to avenge the Zhou family, and everything will come naturally.
"Conversely, if Old Master Xing has the same purpose as the Twelve Winds that day.
"That's a lot to do..."
When Yang Xiaoyun heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up:
"To drive away tigers and devour wolves?"
"Exactly."
Su Mo smiled slightly:
"The gift of the little hall master and the crown has not yet arrived, and the gift is the bargaining chip.
"It is expected that if Mrs. Xing really thinks this way, he will probably be searching for a way to find rare treasures..."
When he said this, his voice suddenly stopped.
He suddenly looked back at the several carriages behind him, and thought of Mr. Xing again.
He couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief, and continued:
"Now there are the mutton fat white jade bottles in the hands of the twelve evil spirits of the sky and the seven-colored night pearls.
"Using these two things, I persuaded Mrs. Xing to let him help deal with the Twelve Winds.
"For these two treasures, Mrs. Xing may still make a move.
"At that time, the Zhou family and Li Zhao's vengeance will naturally be avenged.
"However, those two things will also be in the bag of Mrs. Xing.
"So... we still have to see what kind of person this old Mr. Xing is?
"If he really kills people and seizes treasures, it's to give gifts to the little hall master.
"Then simply take advantage of the fact that they are both wounded, and suddenly attack and kill them all in one go.
"Even if your martial arts are not as good, then you can do something else.
"Anyway, as long as there is trouble, it's not difficult to act."
Little Situ quickly remembered these words in his heart, while Wei Ziyi pouted again and again:
"Then why didn't you tell that Yun Mantang?"
"Because I am not the same kind of person as him."
Su Mo smiled:
"If he showed everything today from his heart.
"Then he is a real hero.
"And I'm not...
"In my heart, everything in the world is not as good as three feet in front of me.
"I can do whatever it takes to achieve my goals.
"He might not listen to what he said.
"On the contrary, there may be conflicts for no reason.
“Differences in ideas cannot be reconciled.
"Then let him do his thing.
"After all, judging from Liu Zhongxian's martial arts, although the so-called Twelve Heavenly Wind Demons are not weak, they may not necessarily be superior to Daoist Mingyue.
"With Xiao He's support, if the opponent's martial arts are really beyond expectations, they can retreat immediately.
"On the other hand, it shouldn't be difficult to lead the white tigers to destroy them all.
"So, how Yun Mantang acts has nothing to do with me.
"I just have to get what I want."
These words immediately made Wei Ziyi speechless.
After chewing for a while, I felt that it tasted different, and I couldn't help but shake my head:
"Old Demon Su, you really deserve to be Old Demon Su."
Yang Xiaoyun smiled lightly:
"You are naturally different from him.
"He is a loner, but you have to think about the people around you.
"In my opinion, you are also chivalrous.
"If you can't even protect the people around you, you will be chivalrous and passionate, but you will cause disaster instead."
Su Mo smiled dumbly: "It doesn't matter, why should I be stingy with the so-called heroic name?
"I didn't expect to hear the name of the Jade Dragon Escort Bureau here.
"But I don't know, is it really what you and I think?"
Yang Xiaoyun shook her head slightly:
"Fortunately, they are about to arrive at Centennial City.
"We can start first and wait in Centennial City.
"Is it really what you and I think, you can tell at a glance."
"Ah."
There is nothing left to say after tonight, and in the blink of an eye, Tianming cleaned up the stove, extinguished the sparks, and continued on his way.
So far, it is not far from Centennial City.
There were more and more pedestrians on the road, and not long after noon, Su Mo and his party had arrived in front of a majestic city.
Above the top of the city hangs the three characters of "Hundred Years City".
There is a long queue in front of the gate, and it is very lively when entering and leaving the city.
Su Mo and his party obediently lined up for another hour, and then it was their turn to register, pay some money, and successfully entered the Centennial City.
The city is a bustling scene.
Su Mo and others got off their horses one after another and led the horses for a walk.
Mu Shanshan took a step first, and after a while came back, he had already found the inn where he was staying.
The name of the inn is Dongsheng.
It should mean the rising sun.
The shopkeeper was already waiting in front of the door from a distance, and when he saw Su Mo and others coming, he kept saying hello.
Su Mo smiled and chatted casually with the shopkeeper.
In the end, I asked for a large courtyard, and put the chariot and horses in, and used it as a place to stay for the time being.
After everything was tidied up, Yang Xiaoyun asked:
"When are we going to the Taiyang Restaurant?"
"Not urgent."
Su Mo waved his hand lightly: "Wait until the Jade Dragon Escort arrives and find out the situation."
If what Liu Zhongxian said is true, it took only a few days for the Jade Dragon Escort to arrive.
Who is this Mr. Xing, and whether he can help them investigate the clues of the blood lotus, or whether he can point them in the right direction is unknown.
If things are not harmonious, something is wrong.
Then this hundred-year-old city might not be able to stay any longer.
In order to avoid missing out on the Jade Dragon Escort, it is better to hold back for a couple of days.
Yang Xiaoyun nodded, feeling that Su Mo's decision was justified.
And Su Mo told Chen Dinghai to go to the teahouse near the gate of the city to keep an eye on him.
Let Lao Ma and others go out to inquire about the news.
On the one hand, he wanted to see the reputation of the Xing family, and on the other hand, he wanted to see if he could find clues to the Jade Dragon Escort.
As a result, there are a lot of news about the Xing family.
This Xing family is not simple.
It can be regarded as an overlord in Centennial City.
Old Mrs. Xing went out of the rivers and lakes in the past, relying on a set of "Twelve-way Gale Wind Knife", he insisted on making a big name.
Finally settled in Centennial City and developed the foundation of the Xing family.
So far, even though he does not have the name of the city lord, even the centenarian city lord is three points short in front of him.
However, Mrs. Xing is no longer in charge now.
The person in charge is his eldest son Xing Hao.
This person is said to be better than blue than blue.
In his hands, the Twelve Routes Gale Wind Saber is even more powerful, compared to Mrs. Xing, his saber techniques are even more wild.
Once it is cast, it is like a madman dancing.
Therefore, people in the rivers and lakes call it "crazy knife".
Mrs. Xing has two sons, the eldest son Xing Hao, the Crazy Sword, is famous all over the world.
The second son liked literature but not martial arts since he was a child.
I don't know anything about martial arts.
He is not well-known in the Jianghu, and has no achievements in the clan.
The only point of fame is that he suggested that the city lord of the centenary city open a school, where he acts as a teacher and teaches young children how to learn Chinese.
It makes the people very grateful for this.
Other than that, nothing else.
It's just that such a frail scholar named his son Xing Zhan.
It may be to make up for the regret that I don't know martial arts.
It's a pity that Xing Zhan's personality is exactly the same as his.
He likes to play with words and ink, but he has been reluctant to touch swords and swords since he was a child.
Therefore, the people in Baisui City said that the future of the Xing family still depends on Xing Hao's three sons.
The line of the second child is considered abolished.
There is no need to inquire about these news at all.
Just find a place to sit for a while, as long as someone is chatting, you can hear it.
As for the news about Yulong Escort, there is not much.
Some people know that the Jade Dragon Escort has only risen in the Jianghu in the past two years.
It is said that no matter what important darts they have, they can deliver them wherever they are.
So good deal.
Other than that, there is no more content.
Even the name of the Chief Escort's head, there are different opinions, which is not trustworthy.
Su Mo went through the news in his mind. He thought he would have to wait two days before news from the Jade Dragon Escort arrived.
Unexpectedly, before dark, Chen Dinghai would come to report.
"My lord, something happened to the Jade Dragon Escort."
As soon as these words came out, Su Mo couldn't help being taken aback:
"What happened?"
"It is said that at noon today, the darts they escorted were taken away."
Chen Dinghai said:
"A group of people intercepted and killed them at the intersection of Huiyang. After a chaotic battle, the bodyguards of the Yulong Bodyguard Bureau were defeated, and their escorts were snatched away.
"The bodyguards were seriously injured, and they were all healing on the spot.
"The news was seen by the passengers on the side at the time, and it only reached Centennial City in the evening."
Su Mo pondered slightly, then nodded slightly:
"I know, you go down first."
"Yes."
Chen Dinghai agreed, turned and left.
Su Mo glanced at Yang Xiaoyun so far, and Yang Xiaoyun said softly:
"The specific situation is unknown, so don't worry."
Su Mo nodded slightly:
"It's true that you shouldn't be in a hurry, but the Jade Dragon Escort is involved in a lot of things.
"Who is the bodyguard here is unknown.
"Therefore, I plan to go there in person."
"Then I will go with you."
Yang Xiaoyun said quickly.
Su Mo shook his head: "Huiyang Crossing is not too far from here, if I go by myself, I will go back and forth quickly.
"If it goes well, you won't need it in the middle of the night, and you'll already be back.
"You stay here, preside over the overall situation, and wait for me to come back."
"Um……"
Yang Xiaoyun exhaled lightly.
Although she told Su Mo not to worry, she was actually the one who was really worried.
Su Mo patted her hand lightly:
"Don't worry, if it's really dad and the others, then nothing will happen."
Yang Xiaoyun nodded repeatedly.
Without delay, Su Mo took a human skin mask that Xiao He had made earlier and put it on.
Changed clothes.
Go out from the back door of the inn, and look for the narrow alley to walk.
Under Fengshen's legs, he had already left Centennial City in a short while. The gatekeeper only felt a gust of wind sweeping past him, and when he searched the surrounding area, it was empty.
Can't help scolding:
"Where did the evil wind come from?"
Huiyang Road Crossing is less than thirty miles away from Centennial City.
Ordinary people naturally have to walk for a long time.
But for Su Mo, this journey is not serious at all.
It arrived in a short time, and when it arrived, the sky had not completely darkened.
There are still traces of fighting in this area, and there is dried blood left on the ground.
It can be seen from the traces on the side and the remaining broken tables and chairs.
This side seemed to be a place like a roadside tea shed and wine shop.
The two groups started their hands here.
Now the tea shed and wine shop have been taken away, the bodyguards were seriously injured, and I have never seen any trace of them during my journey.
It should be that they have found a new foothold on both sides to heal their injuries for the time being.
With this thought in my mind, I searched along the footprints and blood.
But for a while, in the middle of the mountain, I saw a ruined temple.
When Su Mo came to him, he never rushed in rashly.
Instead, he patrolled around.
Because of the Jade Dragon Escort, the Jinglong Club went to Donghuang to investigate in the tenth surprise.
Although the tenth surprise was entrapped by the sixth surprise, he was finally intercepted by himself and fell into his hands.
Later, Tenth Jing was also asked to write a secret letter, pretending to be still investigating the details of Donghuang.
But it's hard to say if there will be people from the Scaring Dragon Society around here, staring at them.
Turned around and saw no trace.
Only then did Su Mo come from the main entrance to the gate of the ruined temple.
As soon as he arrived, he immediately saw a group of people dressed as bodyguards sitting in the hall, looking at him.
Sitting in the middle is a middle-aged man.
With a big face and a dignified appearance, people feel a lot of security in their hearts at first sight.
Su Mo was taken aback for a moment, thinking that this person is very suitable to be a bodyguard just because of his appearance.
It's just that this person is pale now.
Seeing Su Mo coming, the group couldn't help but look a little nervous, and some even quietly put their hands on the handle of the knife.
The middle-aged man coughed violently at this time, and the group of people came back to their senses.
He let go of the handle of the knife, but looked at Su Mo with vigilance.
Su Mo cupped his fists slightly:
"Everyone is invited, the passerby missed Sutou, and happened to see this dilapidated temple.
"I want to stay here temporarily for a night. I don't know if it is convenient for you?"
"Don't dare."
The middle-aged man hurriedly cupped his fists:
"This temple is an ownerless thing, we just arrived first.
"Brother, just do whatever you want."
"Thank you."
Su Mo nodded slightly and stepped inside.
Sit down in a corner of the temple.
The middle-aged man glanced at Su Mo, but stopped looking.
The two parties lived in peace for a while.
Su Mo was thinking in his heart, planning to find this person to find out the news.
Just as he was ignoring it, he heard a severe cough.
Looking back, the middle-aged man suddenly spurted out a mouthful of blood.
"Boss Chen!!"
Seeing this, the bodyguards around immediately exclaimed.
When Su Mo heard this, he let out a sigh of relief and said:
"Brother, are you injured?"
(End of this chapter)
Why Liu Zhongxian didn't finish talking.
Because when he said this, he reached out and pulled out the knife on his chest.
Amidst the splash of blood, the old man fell on his back, but after a while, he lost his breath.
Yun Mantang walked over carefully, and after making sure that the old man was dead, he took the knife back from his hand.
Sheathing the knife, frowning, turned to look at Su Mo, clasped his fists and said:
"Brother Wu, I am grateful to you for saving lives twice today, and I am reborn with grace.
"I thought that even though I had nothing to repay, I should go along with me all the way.
"But now... I have something to do, so I can't stay here for a long time.
"This kindness can only be repaid in the future."
Su Mo glanced at Yun Mantang, smiled and said:
"Are you going to Qiuyu Village to save that Fairy Luodie?"
Yun Mantang nodded:
"Fairy Luo Die, known as a chivalrous man, now suffers from bad luck, but she can't ignore it.
"Furthermore... Li Zhao Li is unparalleled in benevolence and righteousness, and he has done countless good deeds. For the sake of a so-called small hall master's crowning ceremony, this group of people killed people and took away the white jade bottle of mutton fat.
"There's even blood feuds from the Zhou family.
"Zhou Chongming is my best friend, he lived and died in adversity, and he has shown me a life-saving grace.
"Now that he is dead, I can only avenge this revenge for him.
"No matter what, you can't call this group of people to be free and unrestrained!"
"Um……"
Su Mo pondered for a while, then smiled:
"Brother Yun really has chivalry in his heart, if it weren't for Mr. Wu who is still busy now, he would also want to go with Brother Yun.
"Now I can't go away.
"That's all I can do. I wish Brother Yun all the best."
"Thank you, Brother Wu."
Yun Mantang laughed:
"Speaking of which, I still don't know where Brother Wu is going this trip?
"If you don't die this time, you must find Brother Wu for a drink."
"My first stop on this trip is also Centennial City."
Su Mo never concealed:
"It's just that after the trip to the Centennial City, where it will go, it may be uncertain.
"Businessmen must run around in the rivers and lakes, how can there be a certain number?
"If Brother Yun's major matter is resolved early, you can come to Centennial City to find me for a drink."
"Well."
Yun Mantang immediately cupped his fists:
"The green mountains will not change, and the green water will flow forever. Brother Wu, let's just leave here."
"Please."
Su Mo cupped his fists and saluted.
Yun Mantang was very unrestrained, he left as soon as he said, holding his own sword, and disappeared into the darkness in a blink of an eye.
Su Mo looked at his back and pondered slightly.
Then gently waved.
Xiao He took a step forward:
"Son..."
"You take a few people, sneak around, and follow him.
"If Qiuyu Village really does what Liu Zhongxian said, then find a way to get the invitation back.
"I let the white tiger follow secretly, remember not to reveal your identity.
"But if there is a conflict, kill it all, and don't leave any head and tail.
"If you can't do anything, remember to protect yourself."
Su Mo instructed softly.
"Yes."
Xiao He nodded immediately.
Then he clicked on a few people, and then followed with that cloudy back.
At this point, Su Mo looked at the corpses of Liu Zhongxian and several other Tianfeng Twelve Shamans, and searched for them.
These people didn't have much property, not even a secret letter, they just found some loose silver, which made Su Mo very disappointed.
Finally, people dug a hole and buried the bodies on the spot.
"It seems that Yun Mantang no longer trusts Mrs. Xing."
Yang Xiaoyun came to Su Mo's side at this time, and said softly:
"Liu Zhongxian's last words still worked."
Su Mo nodded:
"After all, it's a coincidence, and it's hard for anyone to say what the mystery is.
"If it's true what Liu Zhongxian said, Mrs. Xing also wanted this Qingshuang Sword as a gift to the little hall master.
"The Zhou family's handed down treasure is handed over to Mrs. Xing, or to the Twelve Shades of Tianfeng, it makes no difference.
"I can count on Mrs. Xing to avenge the Zhou family... But in this way, I will not be able to vomit in the end after all."
"Then if it were you, how would you act?"
Wei Ziyi's voice came from next to his ear.
Su Mo smiled when he heard the words:
"It's that simple... I'll still go to Mrs. Xing."
Little Situ froze for a moment:
"Why? If Old Master Xing behaves the same as Tianfeng Twelve Demons, there may be many variables to go to him, right?"
Su Mo glanced at little Situ and said with a smile:
"Little Situ is really smart and can think of this verse.

"I just have to get what I want."
These words immediately made Wei Ziyi speechless.
After chewing for a while, I felt that it tasted different, and I couldn't help but shake my head:
"Old Demon Su, you really deserve to be Old Demon Su."
Yang Xiaoyun smiled lightly:
"You are naturally different from him.
"He is a loner, but you have to think about the people around you.
"In my opinion, you are also chivalrous.
"If you can't even protect the people around you, you will be chivalrous and passionate, but you will cause disaster instead."
Su Mo smiled dumbly: "It doesn't matter, why should I be stingy with the so-called heroic name?

So far, it is not far from Centennial City.
There were more and more pedestrians on the road, and not long after noon, Su Mo and his party had arrived in front of a majestic city.

The city is a bustling scene.
Su Mo and others got off their horses one after another and led the horses for a walk.
Mu Shanshan took a step first, and after a while came back, he had already found the inn where he was staying.
The name of the inn is Dongsheng.
It should mean the rising sun.
The shopkeeper was already waiting in front of the door from a distance, and when he saw Su Mo and others coming, he kept saying hello.
Su Mo smiled and chatted casually with the shopkeeper.
In the end, I asked for a large courtyard, and put the chariot and horses in, and used it as a place to stay for the time being.
After everything was tidied up, Yang Xiaoyun asked:
"When are we going to the Taiyang Restaurant?"
"Not urgent."
Su Mo waved his hand lightly: "Wait until the Jade Dragon Escort arrives and find out the situation."
If what Liu Zhongxian said is true, it took only a few days for the Jade Dragon Escort to arrive.
Who is this Mr. Xing, and whether he can help them investigate the clues of the blood lotus, or whether he can point them in the right direction is unknown.
If things are not harmonious, something is wrong.
Then this hundred-year-old city might not be able to stay any longer.
In order to avoid missing out on the Jade Dragon Escort, it is better to hold back for a couple of days.
Yang Xiaoyun nodded, feeling that Su Mo's decision was justified.
And Su Mo told Chen Dinghai to go to the teahouse near the gate of the city to keep an eye on him.
Let Lao Ma and others go out to inquire about the news.
On the one hand, he wanted to see the reputation of the Xing family, and on the other hand, he wanted to see if he could find clues to the Jade Dragon Escort.
As a result, there are a lot of news about the Xing family.
This Xing family is not simple.
It can be regarded as an overlord in Centennial City.
Old Mrs. Xing went out of the rivers and lakes in the past, relying on a set of "Twelve-way Gale Wind Knife", he insisted on making a big name.
Finally settled in Centennial City and developed the foundation of the Xing family.
So far, even though he does not have the name of the city lord, even the centenarian city lord is three points short in front of him.
However, Mrs. Xing is no longer in charge now.
The person in charge is his eldest son Xing Hao.
This person is said to be better than blue than blue.
In his hands, the Twelve Routes Gale Wind Saber is even more powerful, compared to Mrs. Xing, his saber techniques are even more wild.
Once it is cast, it is like a madman dancing.
Therefore, people in the rivers and lakes call it "crazy knife".
Mrs. Xing has two sons, the eldest son Xing Hao, the Crazy Sword, is famous all over the world.
The second son liked literature but not martial arts since he was a child.
I don't know anything about martial arts.
He is not well-known in the Jianghu, and has no achievements in the clan.
The only point of fame is that he suggested that the city lord of the centenary city open a school, where he acts as a teacher and teaches young children how to learn Chinese.
It makes the people very grateful for this.
Other than that, nothing else.
It's just that such a frail scholar named his son Xing Zhan.
It may be to make up for the regret that I don't know martial arts.
It's a pity that Xing Zhan's personality is exactly the same as his.
He likes to play with words and ink, but he has been reluctant to touch swords and swords since he was a child.
Therefore, the people in Baisui City said that the future of the Xing family still depends on Xing Hao's three sons.
The line of the second child is considered abolished.
There is no need to inquire about these news at all.
Just find a place to sit for a while, as long as someone is chatting, you can hear it.
As for the news about Yulong Escort, there is not much.
Some people know that the Jade Dragon Escort has only risen in the Jianghu in the past two years.
It is said that no matter what important darts they have, they can deliver them wherever they are.
So good deal.
Other than that, there is no more content.
Even the name of the Chief Escort's head, there are different opinions, which is not trustworthy.
Su Mo went through the news in his mind. He thought he would have to wait two days before news from the Jade Dragon Escort arrived.
Unexpectedly, before dark, Chen Dinghai would come to report.
"My lord, something happened to the Jade Dragon Escort."
As soon as these words came out, Su Mo couldn't help being taken aback:
"What happened?"
"It is said that at noon today, the darts they escorted were taken away."
Chen Dinghai said:
"A group of people intercepted and killed them at the intersection of Huiyang. After a chaotic battle, the bodyguards of the Yulong Bodyguard Bureau were defeated, and their escorts were snatched away.
"The bodyguards were seriously injured, and they were all healing on the spot.
"The news was seen by the passengers on the side at the time, and it only reached Centennial City in the evening."
Su Mo pondered slightly, then nodded slightly:
"I know, you go down first."
"Yes."
Chen Dinghai agreed, turned and left.
Su Mo glanced at Yang Xiaoyun so far, and Yang Xiaoyun said softly:
"The specific situation is unknown, so don't worry."
Su Mo nodded slightly:
"It's true that you shouldn't be in a hurry, but the Jade Dragon Escort is involved in a lot of things.
"Who is the bodyguard here is unknown.
"Therefore, I plan to go there in person."
"Then I will go with you."
Yang Xiaoyun said quickly.
Su Mo shook his head: "Huiyang Crossing is not too far from here, if I go by myself, I will go back and forth quickly.
"If it goes well, you won't need it in the middle of the night, and you'll already be back.
"You stay here, preside over the overall situation, and wait for me to come back."
"Um……"
Yang Xiaoyun exhaled lightly.
Although she told Su Mo not to worry, she was actually the one who was really worried.
Su Mo patted her hand lightly:
"Don't worry, if it's really dad and the others, then nothing will happen."
Yang Xiaoyun nodded repeatedly.
Without delay, Su Mo took a human skin mask that Xiao He had made earlier and put it on.
Changed clothes.
Go out from the back door of the inn, and look for the narrow alley to walk.
Under Fengshen's legs, he had already left Centennial City in a short while. The gatekeeper only felt a gust of wind sweeping past him, and when he searched the surrounding area, it was empty.
Can't help scolding:
"Where did the evil wind come from?"
Huiyang Road Crossing is less than thirty miles away from Centennial City.
Ordinary people naturally have to walk for a long time.
But for Su Mo, this journey is not serious at all.
It arrived in a short time, and when it arrived, the sky had not completely darkened.
There are still traces of fighting in this area, and there is dried blood left on the ground.
It can be seen from the traces on the side and the remaining broken tables and chairs.
This side seemed to be a place like a roadside tea shed and wine shop.
The two groups started their hands here.
Now the tea shed and wine shop have been taken away, the bodyguards were seriously injured, and I have never seen any trace of them during my journey.
It should be that they have found a new foothold on both sides to heal their injuries for the time being.
With this thought in my mind, I searched along the footprints and blood.
But for a while, in the middle of the mountain, I saw a ruined temple.
When Su Mo came to him, he never rushed in rashly.
Instead, he patrolled around.
Because of the Jade Dragon Escort, the Jinglong Club went to Donghuang to investigate in the tenth surprise.
Although the tenth surprise was entrapped by the sixth surprise, he was finally intercepted by himself and fell into his hands.
Later, Tenth Jing was also asked to write a secret letter, pretending to be still investigating the details of Donghuang.
But it's hard to say if there will be people from the Scaring Dragon Society around here, staring at them.
Turned around and saw no trace.
Only then did Su Mo come from the main entrance to the gate of the ruined temple.
As soon as he arrived, he immediately saw a group of people dressed as bodyguards sitting in the hall, looking at him.
Sitting in the middle is a middle-aged man.
With a big face and a dignified appearance, people feel a lot of security in their hearts at first sight.
Su Mo was taken aback for a moment, thinking that this person is very suitable to be a bodyguard just because of his appearance.
It's just that this person is pale now.
Seeing Su Mo coming, the group couldn't help but look a little nervous, and some even quietly put their hands on the handle of the knife.
The middle-aged man coughed violently at this time, and the group of people came back to their senses.
He let go of the handle of the knife, but looked at Su Mo with vigilance.
Su Mo cupped his fists slightly:
"Everyone is invited, the passerby missed Sutou, and happened to see this dilapidated temple.
"I want to stay here temporarily for a night. I don't know if it is convenient for you?"
"Don't dare."
The middle-aged man hurriedly cupped his fists:
"This temple is an ownerless thing, we just arrived first.
"Brother, just do whatever you want."
"Thank you."
Su Mo nodded slightly and stepped inside.
Sit down in a corner of the temple.
The middle-aged man glanced at Su Mo, but stopped looking.
The two parties lived in peace for a while.
Su Mo was thinking in his heart, planning to find this person to find out the news.
Just as he was ignoring it, he heard a severe cough.
Looking back, the middle-aged man suddenly spurted out a mouthful of blood.
"Boss Chen!!"
Seeing this, the bodyguards around immediately exclaimed.
When Su Mo heard this, he let out a sigh of relief and said:
"Brother, are you injured?"
