Chapter 659 Find a way to enter the city

After the two came close, they only saw a few black shadows running past below, and the entire backyard of the inn had already seen open flames.

"Oops, someone set fire!" Bell was so frightened that his face turned pale.

"Let's go!" Nalan Ying hurriedly held the hand of the bell, and then turned out from the window,
At the same time, the latch was suddenly opened.

Nalan Ying's eyes sank, and she quickly struck out the burning candle, instantly turning the whole room into darkness.

"Quick!" Nalan Ying urged the bell to ring, and jumped off the window.

After a brief hesitation, the bell was also pulled down by Nalan Ying.

"Chasing, they ran away!" Suddenly there was an exclamation from others above their heads, and the two quickly ran towards the backyard.

He rushed into the stable, grabbed two horses and rushed out.

"They ran away!" Disappointed voices came from behind them, which were gradually drowned out by the sound of horseshoes.

When Nalan Ying and Ling Dang rushed to the gate of Fengqi City in dismay, it was just dawn.

"My lord, the city gate is about to open, shall we find a place to rest for a while?" Bell said as he walked to Nalan Ying's side.

Nalan Ying looked at the dark city gate, and saw that there were ordinary people lined up, waiting to enter the city.

"Bell? What are they holding in their hands when they enter the city?" Nalan Ying asked with a frown.

Ling Dang looked closely, and saw that everyone was holding something in their hands, which seemed to be very precious in their arms.

"Looks like Lu Yin!" Bell frowned.

"But we don't have a guide, will they let us enter the city?" Nalan Ying asked worriedly.

"Then what should we do?" Ling Dang looked at Nalan Ying nervously.

"Since it's here, let's settle down, and then we'll figure out a way!" Nalan Ying had no choice but to say.

The two rested for a while in a remote place, and when the city gate opened, the two walked into the long queue to line up.

As soon as the two walked over, they saw a green cloth carriage lined up beside them. There were a few guards outside, which looked like they belonged to a wealthy family.

Nalan Ying rolled her eyes, walked to the side of the guard and said, "Can this little brother help me?"

"What?" The guard looked at him coldly.

"Can I meet your master?" Nalan Ying said in a deep voice.

The green cloth curtain suddenly opened, revealing a part of the green robe corner inside.

"What's the matter with this young master?" A juicy little girl walked out from inside and looked at Nalan Ying with a smile and asked.

"I would like to ask your master for help, because Xiaotong and I forgot to lead the way when we went out, so there is no way to enter the capital, so I would like to ask your master to take us to the city!" Nalanying said sincerely.

"Wait a minute, young master, this servant will ask our young master!" The little girl nodded, then turned and entered the carriage.

After a while, the little girl came out.

"How is it?" Bell asked looking at the little girl expectantly.

"Our master said that you can go into the city with us, and when the soldiers interrogate you, you can just keep quiet!" the little girl said softly.

"Thank you!" Nalan Ying cupped her hands.

"My lord, you're being polite!" the little girl walked into the carriage after she finished speaking.

There were a lot of people queuing up, so they hadn't arrived at Nalanying and the others until noon. However, at this time, a group of carriages gradually approached from a distance, which made Nalanying and Lingdang feel embarrassed. He even chased after him.

The men were startled when they saw Nalan Ying and Ling Dang, and then they walked forward with their swords in hand, staring at Nalan Ying and Ling Dang covetously.

"It's fate for the two of you, you can escape from such a big fire!" A big man said, looking at Nalan Ying coldly.

"You guys set the fire?" Nalan Ying asked with narrowed eyes.

"Of course it's us. Our boss died miserably. Of course we want to find some people to be buried with him, and those people from the inn are just right!" the big man smiled coldly.

"You!" Ling Dang stared at these murderous monsters with reddened eyes.

"Back off!" Nalan Ying shouted coldly.

"Yes! Young Master!" Bell retreated behind Nalan Ying.

"Today's Encounter Road is narrow, we meet here again, let's die!" As he said that, the big man raised his long sword and stabbed at Nalanying fiercely.

"Stop!" The guards who had been guarding the carriage suddenly received an order to protect Nalan Ying and Bell.

"Shouting? Someone is looking for our Chen Family Escort today?" The big man said coldly.

"My lord, we are from Jiangsu and Zhejiang Chen's family, and we are in the cloth business. Our master said that these two young masters are the distinguished guests of our guards, so please give me some face!" the guard said to the big man respectfully.

"Jiangsu Chen's house?" The big man frowned.

"Good!" The guard nodded.

"Do you know that this is the man who killed our chief escort!" The big man pointed to the white clothed car next to him and said.

The guard turned his face to take a look, but before he could speak, he saw the curtain of the car suddenly opened, and the pretty little girl came out again.

"This bodyguard, our master has said that we will pay for this young master as much money as you want!"

Those men's eyes flickered and they looked at each other, the leading man sneered and said: "We are asking for an explanation for the escort, not for money!"

"Since this bodyguard has also said, it's not for money? Why bother chasing this young master so hard?" The little girl asked with a frown.

"Boss!" Several men frowned and looked at the man in the lead.

"It's almost time to come to us. After passing this village, there is really no such shop!" The little girl urged.

"500 taels of silver!" The man pondered for a long time before he opened his mouth.

Nalan Ying's eyes sank, and she gave the man a hard look, only to see that the man said with a guilty conscience: "We are going to pay the funeral expenses for the escort's wife and children, aren't we?"

The little girl took out a small bundle from the carriage and said, "This is 500 taels of silver! Take it!"

The man's expression froze, he secretly regretted that he had asked for less, and he said shamelessly: "This escort is still short of our brothers' wages, so you are kind enough to give it too!"

"Why are you so shameless!" Ling Dang scolded angrily.

"Young master, don't worry!" The little girl looked at the angry bell soothingly.

"Then according to Master Biao? How much more do you plan to ask?" the little girl asked sideways.

"There are seven of us in total. Each of us takes a dart trip, which costs 100 taels of silver. The total is 700 taels!" the man said greedily.

"700 taels? Master Biao has thought about it?" The little girl looked at him mockingly and said.

"Think it over!" The man glanced at his brothers and nodded vigorously.
