Chapter 328
Song Huiyue squinted her eyes and looked forward, and saw the shape of the house in the darkness, the corners of the eaves were upturned, and the bell was shaking silently in the wind——the copper core inside was taken away, it was the same as the hall fell silent.

After almost thirty miles, she finally finished walking and reached the place she wanted to go.

The fire light was very weak, just a little bit of light flowing from the gap, but this was enough to make Song Huiyue jump for joy and feel more motivated.

Where there is fire, there are people, which is enough to prove that there are still people trading in this market, but it has become an underground market, and the people and things inside are not visible.

She walked forward quickly, and the weeds on the road gradually became less and less. As she walked, the grass disappeared, and even the roots of the grass were stepped out. The outline of the land became clearer and clearer to her. But intact.

She had to think about how to get in.

At this moment, she stopped suddenly, turned her head and looked around - just now, she clearly heard a sound different from wind blowing grass in her ears.

dangerous.

The underground discussion market is inherently dangerous. These shady businesses and huge profits are enough to make anyone take risks. They can't see the light, and they can't see strangers, especially Song Huiyue, who has an unknown origin and has never shown up in Dingzhou. people.

Her intuition told her to back up, but before she could start running, four figures suddenly emerged from the weeds.

The four of them were all big men with fierce eyes, and they were very vigilant, so they knew without thinking that they were the gatekeepers of the court.

The leader stared at Song Huiyue, without saying a word, just waved his hand, and the other three rushed forward with knives. Run to the boundless wilderness.

The grass outside Dingzhou city has no flocks to eat, it can be as tall as half a person, and it is dry and fallen. The stems and leaves are all knotted together, and she stumbles when she runs. She doesn't look back, she just burrows into the dense grass , Every step made a "rustling" sound.

The four big guys were chasing after him, Song Huiyue was nimble and just burrowing around, she didn't expect that she would have such strength at this time.

There was a sound of breaking wind behind her, she bent down to avoid it, the blade brushed against her scalp, she straightened up like invulnerable and continued to run, the person chasing her thought that this person was crazy and a headless chicken , Blindly plunged into the messy haystack.

But Song Huiyue was sweating profusely, but she didn't run around. After twisting and turning, she got out from the haystack, rushed to the quarry, and knocked open the door of the quarry.

The four gatekeepers stopped in astonishment, and everyone who was laughing and chatting in the discussion room also fell silent, looking at her silently.

Song Huiyue let out a long breath - once you come in, you will have a chance to explain.

She took a step inside and glanced at the situation inside.

The bargaining place was originally open-air, and there were not many places with a roof, but now it is completely closed, and the stalls are marked one by one on the ground, and there is an oil lamp every two stalls, and the merchants present are from the Central Plains. , there are also aliens.

A young and capable man in a blue round-neck robe walked out quickly, gave the four people outside a hard look, and then closed the door.

As soon as he moved, ten thugs armed with knives and long sticks rushed out from the dark, and surrounded Song Huiyue together.

"Little lady, sit down first." The young man winked, and immediately two thugs stepped forward, one on the left and one on the right, supported Song Huiyue, and brought her to the room where the documents were stored.

There was a table in the room with three top chairs, and two thugs pressed Song Huiyue on one of them. The young man sat in front of the table and scanned Song Huiyue from head to toe with his eyes.

Song Huiyue panted heavily, and feebly raised her hand to pat the hay on her body, wiped off her sweat, and looked down at her hand, which was covered in plaster.

Then she lost her strength and rested her breath against the back of the chair, only her eyes were not idle, looking at the face and expression of the young man.

"Who are you?" The man said in a bad tone.

Song Huiyue tore her mouth open, her tongue was stuck in her mouth, unable to move, she struggled to say a word: "Water."

The man raised his hand to the people around him, and someone immediately stepped forward and poured her a bowl of cold water.

Trembling, Song Huiyue picked up the bowl and brought it to her mouth. Even if there was arsenic in the bowl, she would drink it right away.

She was so thirsty, this bowl of water was sweet rain, which made her from dying to half dead in an instant.

Putting down the bowl, she let out a long breath, and replied to the man: "I am a military household with the army, and I want to do business."

"You are very courageous," the man raised his eyebrows. He has a shrewd appearance, and when he raised his eyebrows, he immediately showed calculations. "Who told you to come here for business?"

He leaned forward and approached Song Huiyue: "Or, who sent you to die?"

Song Huiyue couldn't even lift a finger: "There is no one, there is a sign on the side of the road."

The man lowered his eyebrows, thought about it carefully, and really remembered a sign, then laughed, and sighed again: "You are so brave, you dare to come in without our Hu family's post."

Song Huiyue chuckled: "I don't know what the Hu family is. If I knew that you guys are so fierce, I wouldn't take my life as a joke. The journey has exhausted me. I just want to earn money. Very, very A lot of silver."

She said it calmly, but it was actually because she was exhausted. As soon as the heat passed, the sweat turned into cold sweat, and her clothes stuck to her body, making her hands and feet cold, and even the breath she exhaled from her nose became cold. of.

Once the spirit is exhausted, the person becomes completely weak.

It was still quiet outside, as if she was waiting for her end, occasionally there were a few voices, which were also vague.

Because of her understatement, the man also relaxed his tense body and leaned back: "Listen to your accent, are you from Kyoto?"

"Yes." Song Huiyue didn't hide it.

"If you don't stay in the capital, what are you doing here in our remote place?" the man continued to interrogate.

Song Huiyue replied: "The family is broken and the family is dead."

When those tragic and vigorous past events came out of her mouth, there was only this light sentence, and she said it without emotion, it was just an answer.

The man was obviously stunned for a moment, and his voice slowed down: "What kind of business do you want?"

Song Huiyue regained her momentum, untied the money bag from her waist, and put it on the table: "I only have two coins, is there anything I can afford here? Anything is fine."

The man opened the money bag, poured out two strings of tightly tied copper plates, and looked at Song Huiyue again with admiration: "You should sell cooking cakes on the street with your money."

Song Huiyue laughed lowly: "If your brain falls on the cooking cake, you will never be able to get it out of it for the rest of your life."

The man bent down and took out a large bag of jerky from under the table, which weighed about five or six catties, and pushed it to Song Huiyue: "My name is Hu Jinyu, and I'm a junior of the Hu family. I'll accept the money from you." , don’t come in the future.”

"My name is Li Yue." This is the name she made up when she was in the military household. "Thank you, little master. I will come again next time."
