Noble First Daughter-in-law

Chapter 375 One suit, white monk robe

"Ok?"

Shang Ruyi suddenly came back to his senses, raised his head and met the concerned eyes of the two men looking at him, only to realize that he was staring at a money bag in a daze.

She shook her head hastily: "No, it's okay."

Yu Wenye frowned and looked at her: "Is it really all right?"

"Um……"

Shang Ruyi shook her head lightly again. Although just at that moment, her whole body seemed to be struck by lightning, and even her soul trembled a little, as if she was about to leave her body. Returning to calm, as if nothing had happened, and even a little inexplicable, why did I have such a strange feeling just now.

Shen Wuzheng looked at her for a while, then said softly: "Are you really all right? Little sister, your complexion is not very good-looking."

Shang Ruyi shook her head seriously again.

Seeing that his expression was as usual, the two reluctantly felt relieved, but it was Shang Ruyi herself who looked at the purse in Yu Wenye's hand with some doubts.

No matter how you look at them, they are all unfamiliar.

Moreover, I no longer have that weird feeling that my soul has been penetrated.

Strange, why do you feel this way about a money bag?

Yu Wenye fiddled with the purse again, identified it from left to right, and found that there were no other obvious signs, so he said: "I can't find any clues like this, I'm afraid I can only think of a way after returning to Daxing City."

Shen Wuzheng nodded.

But Shang Ruyi glanced at him, and his eyes deepened a little - the implication of his words was that he also tended to believe that the person in charge of the boulder smashing car incident this time was from Daxing City.

Indeed, if Liang Shide's men did it, it wouldn't be so troublesome. In the narrow valley, directly sending a large army to charge up, the result would be much more tragic than it is now.

But Daxing City...

There are so many people in Daxing City, besides Yu Wenyuan, there are many more dignitaries who have been prominent since the founding of the Daye Dynasty, and who is going to deal with them, especially Yu Wenye?
"and also,"

Just when the three of them were struggling to think, Mu Xian spoke again, his expression a little more serious than before, and said: "When my subordinates finished their investigation and went down the mountain, in the shade of the mountain, they found that there were piles of saltpetre, sulfur and charcoal. Mark of."

"what?!"

Upon hearing this, Shang Ruyi's face immediately revealed a look of shock.

The expressions of Yu Wenye and Shen Wuzheng also changed.

Mu Xian continued: "It seems that there should be a lot of piles, but it seems that they have been taken away by others, leaving only some crumbs to be discovered by the subordinates. I just don't know. Are those on the top of the mountain the same group of people as those who smashed down that big rock?"

Hearing these words, Shang Ruyi subconsciously wrapped the blanket around her body a little tighter.

Saltpeter, sulfur, and charcoal, what these things can do together is self-evident, and what's more, the location they were in before was a narrow valley.

If it is really the same group of people who did these things, then what they have to do is not only to smash their carriages with boulders rolling down, maybe they are also prepared, if one blow fails, they will continue to use those gunpowder, They must be put to death.

If that's the case—

Shang Ruyi raised her head subconsciously, and looked at the busy figures around her, including Yu Wenye's personal soldiers, the soldiers and horses brought by Dabo from Daxing City, and the troops attached to Wanggangzhai. In particular, she also saw the guards Beside the bonfire on the other side, Shan Tong'er was drooling at the bubbling hot porridge on it, these people, if not one of them was left, would all be lost in that narrow valley!

Who wants to do such a cruel thing to them?
Even at the expense of killing so many people?
Thinking of this, Shang Ruyi turned to look at the dignified Yu Wenye, who was looking at the bubbling flames in front of him, but whose eyes were always as cold as ice. He almost couldn't help asking him—who did you offend?

But she didn't need to ask at all.

Yu Wenye is the second son of Duke Sheng, especially now that Duke Sheng has become the prime minister of the new court, with great power in his hands, there is no need for him to offend others, there are many people who want to kill him.

Even his existence is a threat to many people.

At this time, Mu Xian said again: "Second Young Master, I want to lead another group of people along this road to see if I can catch up with that group of people—even if I can't catch up, I can go to find out in advance. Find the way, lest they set any traps ahead."

Yu Wenye thought for a while, and said, "Alright, you can go."

"Yes."

Mu Xian took the order, and immediately turned around and went down to order a few people. They rode horses and got into the dark night.

After a while, the gang leader made dinner, although it was just some simple porridge and side dishes, but after running in the rain for a day and experiencing such frights, they were already hungry, so they ate big mouthfuls , After dinner, it was past Xu time, and everyone found a place to rest.

Because he didn't bring a tent with him, he could only sit on the ground under the roof, so Yu Wenye asked someone to move the burning fire to one side, and after cleaning the steaming ground, he spread out a blanket.When Shang Ruyi lay down on it, she really felt a burst of warmth. The humidity of the rainy day didn't affect her at all, and it was very comfortable to cover her with a blanket.

She glanced at Yu Wenye who was guarding by the fire again: "You, don't you want to rest?"

Yu Wenye said: "I'll think about something."

"Oh……"

Shang Ruyi nodded, and didn't say anything else, just looked at him quietly.

Yu Wenye held the money bag on his chin with one hand, and stared at the fire with burning eyes. Although the flames were bubbling, it still couldn't melt the cold ice in his eyes, let alone see that the fire in that ice What kind of mood does he have hidden under his eyes.

I don't know how long it took, as if feeling her gaze, Yu Wenye turned his head to look at her, and said softly, "Go to sleep."

"Uh-huh……"

Shang Ruyi responded, as if she wanted to say something, but at this moment, tiredness came flooding in like a tide, she only felt her eyelids become heavy, and fell asleep after a while.

The dream was a bit messy and even more disturbing.

In her ears, there was another rumbling sound, as if the world was about to collapse.

Shang Ruyi thought in a trance that some huge rock was about to fall from the top of her head, but when she looked around, she found that she seemed to be in a magnificent and splendid mansion, and the huge roar was actually the gate. In the sound of being bumped!

She opened her eyes wide, watching the door tremble after being hit, and finally, the wooden peg couldn't withstand the heavy impact and broke suddenly!
The door was suddenly knocked open.

A group of people like wolves and tigers rushed in from the outside. They held swords in their hands, shining coldly in the night. There was even blood on the blade, emitting a strong smell of blood. It was obvious that they had just experienced a fight.

And the fighting hasn't stopped yet!
After these people broke in, they started a new massacre. The people around kept screaming and running away, but they were caught up by those people. One after another cold light pierced the night, and then there were screams and gushes. The blood that came out once again turned this gorgeous mansion into a Shura field of hell.

Shang Ruyi was standing in the middle of the Asura field.

The screams resounded in her ears, and the blood kept splashing on her body. It was as if her whole body was swallowed by a river of blood, and she almost forgot her own existence.

How could this be?
how come--

"do not want!"

At this moment, she let out a miserable cry, opened her eyes suddenly, bounced up from the ground, but slammed into someone's arms.

Shang Ruyi was dripping with cold sweat, opened her eyes wide in horror, and met a pair of doubtful eyes.

"Ruyi, what's wrong with you?"

"...?!"

Shang Ruyi was panting non-stop, and the violent heartbeat in her chest seemed to burst her chest. After a long time, she barely regained her mind from the shock of the nightmare, and looked up at the person in front of her—— It's Yu Wenye.

He was sitting next to him, protecting himself with his hands.

Shang Ruyi looked at her, her lips kept trembling, and after a while, she said softly: "You, I—"

Yu Wenye looked at her, and said in a deep voice, "Did you have a nightmare?"

...?
Nightmare?

Yes, it was a nightmare.

Shang Ruyi only felt that she was trembling badly.

That nightmare was not only a nightmare, but also a familiar nightmare.

She hasn't had such a nightmare for a long time, why did she suddenly dream of the scene that almost broke her heart this night?
Isn't she, has she chosen another life?

Seeing that she was in a cold sweat, and her expression was even more terrified, as if she hadn't escaped from the nightmare, Yu Wenye said softly: "It's all right, I woke up from the dream, it's already dawn."

"...?"

Shang Ruyi was taken aback again, and when she raised her head, she realized that the orange morning light had already appeared on the horizon, and the sun was about to come out.

One night, all passed.

She breathed a sigh of relief, and took another look at Yu Wenye, and found that his clothes were neat and his hair was not messy, so she said, "You, you haven't slept all night?"

Yu Wenye shook his head.

Shang Ruyi frowned, and was about to say something when she heard the sound of horseshoes in front of her. Looking up, it turned out that Mu Xian led the previous team back.

They went all night.

Seeing them coming back, Shang Ruyi didn't say anything, just got up immediately, straightened her clothes, and after Mu Xian let everyone go back, she immediately got off her horse, walked towards Yu Wenye, and cupped her hands at the two of them. He saluted and said, "Second Young Master, Young Madam."

Yu Wenye said: "Have you caught up with those people?"

Mu Xian frowned and said softly: "The subordinates are incompetent. Those people ran very fast. Although they tracked their horseshoe prints along the way, they still couldn't catch up with them."

Yu Wenye thought for a while, and said: "The other party came prepared, and if they can't catch up, I don't blame you."

After finishing speaking, he waved his hand: "After walking all night, go down and rest, we will start again in a while."

When Mu Xian heard the words, he didn't leave immediately. Instead, he looked at Yu Wenye, hesitant to speak, and even his expression was much more serious than before.

Both Yu Wenye and Shang Ruyi noticed that there was a difference in his expression, Yu Wenye said: "What's wrong?"

Mu Xian was silent for a long while, and then said softly: "Although I didn't catch up with those people, but on the way, my subordinates seemed to see a figure."

Yu Wenye frowned slightly, and a strange look appeared on his face.

He said, "Who is it?"

Mu Xian glanced at Shang Ruyi again, then lowered his head, and said softly, "That man is wearing a white monk's robe, as if—"
