Rebirth of the ghost concubine of the confused country

Chapter 157
Zhai Yonghui glanced at Uncle Feng Yang, and saw that he was small, very thin, and about 50 years old, so he was a little worried. He looked suspiciously at Dai Tiancheng, his eyes full of doubts.

Dai Tiancheng saw that he looked at him like this, so he smiled and said, "Don't worry, my lord. You can see that this man is thin and small, but he has good physical strength and endurance. I only found him after inquiring."

Uncle Feng Yang also hurriedly said: "My lord, don't worry about my work. I have been born and died in the desert for many years, and I am familiar with every grain of sand in this desert. Don't worry, my lord."

After hearing this, Zhai Yonghui felt relieved, and looked around the people and horses again, and saw that there were about two hundred people, each of them had several water bags on their horses, and the clothes each person wore were also thicker than There are more on weekdays.

Sure enough, everything is ready.

He frowned, then waved his hand and said loudly, "Let's go!"

Only then did the team march towards the snow field mightily.

At this time, a black figure flashed over the opposite eaves, and after Zhai Yonghui's troops left, they also quickly left in another direction.

The man's lightness kung fu was very good, and soon he arrived outside the wine cellar two miles away in Huizhou. When he arrived here, he first squatted down and looked around, then covered his mouth and let out a cuckoo cry. There was also a burst of birdsong in the dense forest.

At this time, he slowly stood up, and after a while, several people came out of the wine cellar.

Shen Sheng, the leader, asked: "What news can I find out?"

"My lord, Zhai Yonghui is heading to the desert with his men. It seems that he has been tricked by us and is going to chase our men in the desert."

The man in black whispered.

After finishing speaking, he looked around, and continued: "The girl whom my lord asked my subordinates to stare at is now captured by Zhai Yonghui."

"What? She was arrested by Zhai Yonghui?"

Same time, another place.

A group of people were crawling on a hill, watching Zhai Yonghui's men and horses pass by them from a distance.

The leader was wearing a silver mask, though through the mask, he could still see the darkness in his eyes.He watched Zhai Yonghui's people pass by quickly with cold eyes.After a while, he said in a cold voice: "Pretend to be a merchant and follow them."

"Yes."

The people behind immediately agreed and went to prepare.

At this time, Zhu Zixin, who was still in the back house of the magistrate, was sitting in the room frowning. The wound on her neck looked serious, and there were uneven openings on the wound. As a result, the wound is very ugly, and the oozing blood has solidified at this time, and it looks a little black.

It added a ferocious look to her originally delicate and indifferent temperament.

However, she didn't care about it, and sat on the chair by herself, but her ears kept paying attention to the movement outside, and she stood up nervously if there was any trouble, for fear that the demon would come back suddenly.

As soon as Zhai Yonghui left, she carefully looked at the layout of the yard through the cracks in the window, and found that there were many guards guarding it. With her current physical strength, it was impossible to escape.

That's why she was so anxious.

Just like that, the sky gradually darkened unconsciously.

At this time, a woman's voice came from outside the door: "Brother guard, I'm here to deliver food to the girl inside, can you open the door?"

"Go in, she's inside!"

The guard said and pushed the door open.

Zhu Zixin raised his head nervously, and sure enough, he saw a maid walking in with a food plate, and said, "Girl, let's eat something!"

Zhu Zixin gave her a wary look, and then looked at the food. She couldn't believe anyone now, for fear that someone might poison the food, after all, this is a strange place.

The maid seemed to see what she was thinking, smiled and said: "Miss, don't worry, the magistrate went out in the afternoon. He heard that he was going to arrest someone. He probably won't come back in the next few days. You You can sleep and eat in peace."

"Really?"

After hearing this, Zhu Zixin's eyes lit up suddenly, and he asked hastily.

Seeing her appearance, the maid couldn't help but smiled and said, "It's true!"

Zhu Zixin was still a little skeptical and didn't dare to eat that meal. However, after being hungry for several days, his stomach was already growling. How can he not be greedy now when he sees delicious food?

So, she had to keep reminding herself not to eat in the temptation of delicious food.

The maid seemed to understand her thoughts, smiled and said: "If the girl is still worried, then the servant will take a bite, so you can rest assured!"

As he said that, he was going to get the chopsticks. Seeing her actions, Zhu Zixin naturally no longer doubted her, picked up the chopsticks and said, "No need!"

Then he ate it in big mouthfuls.

Obviously, what Zhai Yonghui confessed before he left was that the food was quite delicious, not only were there two side dishes, even the rice was made of high-quality rice.

In the past few days, Zhu Zixin had expected to eat such a full meal, so she quickly ate all the food.

Seeing that Zhu Zixin had finished eating, the maid came to clean up the dishes. Zhu Zixin didn't seem to realize that there was still a person standing beside her until then, and she smiled a little embarrassedly when she remembered how she was eating just now.

The maid also gave her a kind smile, and then went down with the food tray.

Zhu Zixin had a full meal and felt much more comfortable than just now. Thinking that Zhai Yonghui would not be able to come back for the time being, she immediately relaxed a lot and had leisure time to appreciate this room. She looked around the whole room. A dresser, made of mahogany, opposite to the dresser is a bed, which is also made of the same material as the dresser, with hollowed-out wooden patterns, which looks pretty good. The pink veil covers the bed, which looks blurry.

You can tell at a glance that this room has been carefully furnished.I didn't expect that Zhai Yonghui, who seemed to be careless, would actually do these romantic things.

Thinking of this, Zhu Zixin picked up a doll on the bed and admired it. The doll was made of a whole piece of cloth, and the black hair seemed to be dyed with ink.

There are two groups of red blushes on the face, which also seem to be dyed with natural dyes.The arms and legs are very thin and very small, but the body is especially big. The whole doll looks only as big as a palm, but it looks very cute. It seems that it was made by a person who is not familiar with female reds, because the stitches are very is thick.

Zhu Zixin put the doll back on the bed, thinking, so this room was inhabited, no wonder it was cleaned up so neatly, but who was that person?Where is she now?
Thinking of this, Zhu Zixin suddenly felt cold all over. Could it be that the man died?

If not, according to the layout of this room, Zhai Yonghui should be someone who attaches great importance to it. How could he give up this room to himself?
With doubts in her heart, Zhu Zixin couldn't sleep any more, and looked around carefully, but she couldn't sleep anyway, so she might as well find something to do, and when it was midnight, she was thinking of a way to escape.

Zhu Zixin thought so.

However, at this moment, her ears moved sharply.

Someone is peeping out the window!
With the thought in mind, Zhu Zixin quickly blew out the candle on the table and hid himself behind the curtain.

At this time, as expected, the window was gently pushed open, and then, a figure jumped out.

The man entered the room, looked around, and then called softly: "Girl, girl, don't... don't be afraid... I... I'm here to save... to save you."

"..."

Hearing his voice, Zhu Zixin felt relieved and walked out from his hiding place.

From the man's stuttering Central Plains dialect, she heard that he was actually the boy who showed her the way in the caravan during the day and later gave her water.
"You...you came to save me?"

Zhu Zixin asked uncertainly.

The man nodded and said, "Follow...follow me...."

After he finished speaking, he went to climb the window again, when a voice suddenly sounded outside the door: "Who is in the house?"

As he said that, the knock on the door rang quickly.

Zhu Zixin turned pale with fright, pushed the boy and said, "Quick, hide!"

The young man nodded, and Zhu Zixin replied: "There is no one, brother guard, it's midnight, how can there be anyone?"

"Open the door quickly, if not, don't blame me for being rude!"

The guard was unmoved and shouted loudly.

"I'm coming!"

As Zhu Zixin said, he deliberately messed up his hair and undid two buttons of his clothes. Then he walked to the door and opened it. He pretended to yawn and said lazily, "Brother guard...you... ..."

"Step aside!"

The guard didn't wait for her to finish speaking, he pushed her away and walked in.

After looking around in the room, no one was found, so he asked, "Someone obviously said something in this room just now, saying, where did you hide him?"

"I'm wronged, brother guard, who else is here besides me? I'm afraid you heard it wrong!"

Zhu Zixin had to bow her head under the eaves now, she couldn't help but said cautiously, at the same time, her eyes looked around the room from time to time, just now, when she turned and walked towards the door, she didn't know that the man was hiding to where.

Even she herself hasn't seen it now, it seems that he is pretty good at hiding.

"Strange, could it be that I really got it wrong?" The guard searched the house and found nothing, so he said to himself.

Zhu Zixin stood behind him, absent-minded all the time. Hearing what he said, he said just now: "Who said it wasn't right? In the dead of night, everyone is sleeping. You work so hard to stand guard. You can forgive me for occasionally being distracted. .”

Hearing what she said, the guard couldn't help turning his head to look at her, and said, "I didn't expect you to be able to talk, well, since there is no one, then I will go out. You can also rest."
