After wearing a book, the sickly tyrant only acts like a spoiled child in my arms

Chapter 137 Task Assembly
In order to avoid the problem of enemies coming to the door and mercenary organizations all at once, many mercenary organizations do not have a foothold for living in groups.

They will only be assembled together if the task requires it.

The mercenaries are not just squatting in the organization and waiting for the mission to come.

He may be a middle-aged man who sells buns on the street, or he may be a beggar. In short, they are all from poor backgrounds, desperate, and most of them are alone.

When the mercenaries of the Ten Thousand Arrows League heard people on the street saying that Baixing Building had invited a girl from the Spring Breeze Garden today, they knew that this was a signal from the leader of the alliance to gather.

After receiving the news, the mercenaries of the Wanjian League will rush to the nearest temporary stronghold as quickly as possible.

The temporary stronghold is different every time, and is determined by the first mercenary who receives the news.

There are also various ways of marking. There are footprints to mark the direction, the toe of the shoe to indicate the direction, and even singing folk songs about the direction to send out signals.

However, there are only about two hundred mercenaries of the Ten Thousand Arrows Alliance in the imperial capital, and those who are more active are familiar with each other, so they can understand the marks at a glance, and they will clear the marks before leaving .

Soon, nearly ninety people gathered in a ruined temple.

Because it was not a signal for emergency assembly, not all of you were present, and those who rushed over were all voluntary trips for this mission.

In the ruined temple, at first glance, there are only seven or eight beggars huddled inside, and there are a few thin and light men squatting on the beams, but you have to look carefully on the beams to find their figures.

There are still some people squatting in the woods outside the ruined temple, and they are very cleverly hidden. If you don't pay attention, you won't be found at all.

At this time, a person jumped down from the roof of the hole, and whispered, "The leader's mission note is here."

"Pay attention to the manpower of the Linglong Palace. They may have set off before us. Half of us will make trouble for them and delay the time. The rest will follow me."

After briefly explaining the task, everyone consciously started to stand in line.

Another experienced beggar came out from the corner, spit out the dead grass in his mouth, and acted as the consul of the other team. He clapped his hands, and everyone looked at him and listened to him, " Brothers, the Linglong Palace is ours."

After the sound fell, he jumped straight onto the beam.

In the next moment, several figures followed him and jumped onto the beams, but he jumped forward one step earlier, and fell out of the hole in the roof.

Someone on the roof of the ruined temple learned two bird calls, and someone blew a whistle on the other side, and the men and horses ambushing outside the ruined temple separated and followed the team.

They don't know what the task is for the time being, but there are two consuls, just follow anyone, and they will naturally know what they should do by then.

It was only a short while before the ruined temple was crowded with people, but at this moment only the cold wind blowing through the ruined roof could be heard, making a whistling and cold sound.

Everything was restored to its original state, and there was no trace of someone being there at all.
-
Yan Yunxiao and the others had already traveled for nine days, and there was constant wind and snow along the way. Fortunately, there was only light snow, but the temperature dropped and it became colder, especially at night, Su Jiu'er's cheeks were flushed from the cold.

They didn't bring much luggage with them, so everyone would stop at night and rest in the inn.

However, Yan Yunxiao did not follow the route back to the imperial capital, but instead took a shortcut, so that the location he passed would be remote, but it was indeed much closer. Capital time.

On the other hand, this rushing attitude gave King Qi an attitude of being in a hurry, which made him uncertain of Yan Yunxiao's mind for a while.

Yan Yunxiao picked up the curtain and got out of the carriage, and was about to turn around to lead Su Jiu'er, but saw her jump out of the carriage and landed on the ground firmly after her.

"Laifu Inn."

While rubbing her hands, she read out the name of the half-sized inn, and then she buried her head and rushed into the dimly lit room.

There is a charcoal pot burning in the inn, and the smoked room is very warm, at least much warmer than the outside.

As soon as Su Jiu'er entered, she let out a long breath, and her tense face relaxed a bit.

It can't be said that she is very afraid of the cold. She used to like skiing and other outdoor exercises, but these days she has been sitting in a carriage, and she has no time to move her limbs and relieve her shins.

Curled up in the carriage every day, motionless, feeling cold and boring.

Maybe it was a bit late, there were no people drinking and eating in the inn, only a waiter was wiping the table, and there was an old man in his 50s on the counter who was tapping his abacus and calculating the account book, and for a while, only beads could be heard There was a crackling sound of being beaten.

It wasn't until Yan Yunxiao opened the heavy door curtain and came in, followed by several military guards behind, that the sound of their uniform steps woke up the old man who was making plans.

He raised his head and took a look. Seeing so many people, he came out to greet them with a smile, and asked, "Good evening, guest officers. Are you going to be a top student or staying at the hotel?"

Yan Yunxiao went to the counter and took out a gold ingot, "Get some of your special dishes, and a few pots of hot wine."

Just looking at the aura of this group of people, the old man felt a little scary.

Those people in the back are all straight, with stern faces, but the one who pays is even more sharp-eyed, with a breathtaking aura in his eyes, which makes people dare not look directly at them.

He hastily lowered his head to collect the money, and repeated his voice should be, "Okay, okay, sit down first, and the good wine and food will be served soon."

They run an inn, and they have never seen anyone in the Jianghu, but they have to be more careful when dealing with such people.

Just as she was about to turn around and leave, she heard a soft female voice say, "I want another room, and some hot water. Send it to my room."

Yan Yunxiao and the old man turned their heads together, and their eyes fell on Su Jiuer's face.

The old man seemed to have just noticed that there was a little girl beside these men.

She was wearing a white satin thick velvet lined cloak, and a cloak hat on her head, revealing only a small face that was flushed red from the cold. He opened and closed, and asked again, "Can you be faster?"

The old man is still a little puzzled. How can such a juicy girl get mixed up with these big men? Could it be that she was arrested?
But look at the way this girl ordered casually, how comfortable she is, she doesn't want to be kidnapped at all.

He quickly dismissed his thoughts, nodded quickly and said, "Yes, I will fix it for you right away, girl, you go to the room and rest first."

After speaking, he gave Su Jiuer a key and explained the location of the room to her.

She said to Yan Yunxiao, "You guys eat first, I have to wash up first."

After speaking, he went up the stairs without looking back, his small steps were very cheerful.

Yan Yunxiao pursed his lips and smiled involuntarily when he saw it. After looking away, he found that his subordinates were all looking at him with incredible eyes.
