"A strange tree with many copper coins hanging on it."

It turns out it’s really a tree!Senior brother, he did not fool himself.

Feeling inexplicably relieved, Xie Lingyun decided to find an opportunity tomorrow to apologize to... No, he should apologize first, who made him so fierce in the first place!

.......................

On the branches under the moon, everyone in the team fell asleep, except Fang Rong, who was in charge of patrol.

After circling the carriage again and again, determination finally appeared in the man's eyes.

He quietly got on his horse and flicked the whip in his hand.

Snapped--

The sleeping horse did not wake up with a whip and run wildly. Instead, it continued to sleep standing up without noticing.

Ok?

Fang Rong's expression changed, and he whipped the horse pulling the cart with two more whips until the skin was torn apart, but it still had no effect.

The sound of breaking through the air suddenly sounded, and the man hurriedly ducked to avoid it.

But the Willow Leaf Guards attacked him one after another, and within a few breaths, Fang Rong was forcefully forced off his horse.

"The escort chief always uses a long knife, but I forgot that hidden weapons are what you are really good at."

Except for Xie Lingyun, who had just woken up and was still confused, the others in the team had already tacitly surrounded Fang Rong.

"Did you know that it belongs to Marquis Changle?"

"I know"

"Know? I know you are still so confused!"

Yu Sheng said angrily: "The Marquis has thousands of followers, do you think you can really run away? Fang Rong, Fang Rong, not only are you seeking death, but you also want to kill us too!"

"..."

The man's face was filled with sadness. To be honest, he didn't think he could escape from Wu if he snatched the treasure.

But, I can’t bear it anymore, I don’t want to bear it anymore!

There were no words to beg for mercy, nor was there any use of martial arts to break out of the siege.

Fang Rong just turned around and walked towards the carriage like a man possessed.

"Fang Rong, Fang Rong, Fang Rong!"

When the third shout ended, Yu Sheng waved the willow leaf dart with a livid face.

The sharp blade sank into his vital part. Fang Rong's eyes widened, and he finally stretched out his hand in the direction of the car in vain.

"Baby, me, my baby."

With a thud, the man's body fell to the ground.

Two people quickly took the body away and buried it, while Yu Sheng unscrewed a small gourd and shook it under the horse's nose.

"Xi Lu Lu——"

While stretching out his hand to comfort the painful horse, Yu Sheng smiled at Tangtang, who poked out her little head in a daze.

"There was a bit of a dispute, but it's okay now."

"Go on to sleep, the night is still long."

....................

After all this fuss, Tangtang was probably the only one who could continue to fall asleep.

Coming to Yu Sheng's side in silence, Xie Lingyun stared at him without saying a word.

“If you have anything to ask, just ask.”

Yu Sheng sighed: "I'm sorry to involve you, but if I didn't nod at that time, Fang Rong would probably get angry on the spot."

It doesn't matter if Fang Rong is the only one, but the situation is delicate at that time. Once Fang Rong takes action, everyone else will probably follow suit.

"Senior brother, could it be that the remaining two missing people..."

"yes"

"What is in the carriage?" Xie Lingyun asked angrily and fearfully.

"Haha, didn't I tell you before - that's a money tree!"

Chapter 019

What a money tree, I think it is an evil thing that can harm people!

Suddenly remembering that the little girl was still sleeping in the carriage, Xie Lingyun hurriedly wanted to take Tangtang out.

But before she could get close, several bodyguards stopped in front of the carriage with expressionless faces.

"Junior sister, come back."

Yu Sheng shook his head and said: "The rules of the team are that you can only get on the bus when it is your turn to water."

After a pause, he added: "Of course, that little girl is an exception."

Tangtang is harmless to humans and animals, so there is no need for everyone to be on guard against her. Xie Lingyun thought this was what his senior brother meant.

Of course Yu Sheng did mean this, but thinking further, if Tangtang couldn't hold back his curiosity and something happened... a person who was deeply seduced by evil things but could not do any harm. Isn’t the person who lifts the water the perfect waterer?

"I don't want to get in the car. Is it okay if I ask Tangtang to come down?" Xie Lingyun stamped his feet and said bitterly.

"..."

After a moment of silence, Yu Sheng nodded tiredly to the several escorts.

They looked at each other and finally chose to respect the authority of the escort leader and silently retreated.

At this moment, at that moment, Yu Sheng tried to shirk his duties in every possible way, refusing to fulfill his duty of watering the water. Naturally, the people in the team were distracted.

But today he was willing to work together and share the pressure, and everyone recognized this escort leader again.

"Tangtang, Tangtang!"

Xie Lingyun shouted loudly outside the carriage, and finally the little girl got out of the carriage, rubbing her eyes.

"Thank you sister, what's going on?"

"Come, let's sleep in a spacious place today."

Letting Tangtang rest on her lap, the sleepy little girl quickly fell asleep again.

Xie Lingyun's heart was in confusion. She stared at Yu Sheng and said a few words silently.

You shouldn't have accepted this escort!

Yu Sheng twitched the corners of his mouth, unable to even smile bitterly.

It really shouldn't be accepted, but this is not a question of whether it should be accepted or not. Fu'an Escort Bureau has no choice at all.

.............

"what--"

Because she was called up before dawn to continue on her way, and because she was woken up twice last night, the little girl was not in good spirits today.

Being held by Xie Lingyun and sitting on the horse, Tangtang yawned continuously, her little head nodding downwards.

"Guard head, it's almost time."

After being reminded, Yu Sheng nodded slightly and looked past his junior sister's face and landed on Tangtang.

"Tangtang" Yu Sheng said with a kind smile on his face: "Uncle, I have something to ask you."

Xie Lingyun looked at Yu Sheng in disbelief. She already knew that these people had bad intentions in calling Tangtang, but, it was her senior brother who said these words!

"It's none of Tangtang's business, let her go, I'll stand up for her!"

Impossible, the remaining road will have to be watered at least twice.

One time for Tangtang and one time for you. I can't let her go.

"Junior sister, until now, you and I can't change anything."

Yu Sheng said seriously: "Don't be impulsive. Your three-legged cat skills will only harm others and yourself."

Yu Sheng said this when they met in Qulan Town. At that time, Xie Lingyun was only angry after hearing it.

It was only then that she truly understood the meaning of this sentence.

"..."

Looking at the little girl who was dozing off and about to fall asleep in his arms, Xie Lingyun said in a deep voice: "Senior brother, can you let me come first?"

"Yes, but you must hand over all 33 willow darts."

Xie Lingyun handed over the weapon without hesitation, because she felt that even without the willow leaf dart, she could destroy the evil thing with her bare hands.

How could Yu Sheng not know what his junior sister was thinking?

He handed over a few pieces of cloth without even mentioning the need to think through the consequences.

"Cover your eyes and ears, and try not to look or listen."

After saying that, Yu Sheng finally showed a wry smile on his face.

"Humph!"

Xie Lingyun snorted coldly, held the watering can, and got on the carriage with great skill.

..............

The eyes were covered, the ears were plugged, and the watering can was thrown aside casually.

Xie Lingyun stretched out his hand and quickly touched the branches of the money tree through the cloth.

Zhiya...is it really Zhiya?

Why is it shaped so much like a hand?

Xie Lingyun had goosebumps all over her body because she felt her hand being grabbed by another hand!

He suddenly took half a step back, and a crashing sound sounded.

It seemed that the branches and leaves were stretching, accompanied by the crisp sound of metal collision.

Even though his ears were blocked, Xie Lingyun could still clearly hear the sound.

My mouth is dry and my heart is pounding.

She pulled apart the cloth in front of her eyes as if possessed, and pulled open the cloth covering the money tree.

The thick branches are like arms, with five branches in front of each arm.

Thin red threads were strung together with copper coins, and there was exactly one coin under all the branches.

Whoa, whoa-

The arms are shaking, the fingers are wagging.

Whoa, whoa-

Coins collided with each other, and the sound was indescribably sweet.

"Junior sister, water it!"

There was a roar outside the carriage, it was Yu Sheng.

"Water, come out immediately after watering!"

Xie Lingyun bit the tip of his tongue suddenly, picked up the kettle and poured some water on the evil thing.

She didn't even have time to cover her head with cloth. She jumped back and fell to the ground in a state of embarrassment.

............

Helping the little girl first was the greatest help Xie Lingyun could do. By the next day, the heavy responsibility of watering still fell on Tangtang's young shoulders.

"Junior sister didn't cover the cloth well yesterday. Tangtang, you can water the tree as soon as you enter the carriage. Remember, water the tree as soon as you enter the carriage!"

Yu Sheng said these words over and over again, and the little girl's ears almost became calloused.
