Xiaocao is indifferent, Wei Tingyu is happy, and there is still a miserable hapless guy.

He is also a very skilled person, and he can easily deal with a few high-ranking ladies and gentlemen with some servants, even if they face him head-on, not to mention it is just a sneak attack in the middle of the night to prepare medicine.

As a result, I stumbled just after climbing over the courtyard wall. If I hadn't reacted quickly enough to evacuate, I might have been told where I was. Even so, the current situation is not much better. There are more than one injury on the body, including bones.

The pain is corroding, so forget it. The body is still in a state of paralysis, which does not completely affect the movement, but it still feels stiff, not very flexible, and does not obey orders.

Fortunately, there was not one person who acted. Because of this incident, the two people standing outside quickly carried the person away without causing any more noise. At this moment, in another courtyard of the inn, there were only

When a small lamp was lit, the whole room could not even be illuminated. The atmosphere in the room was almost suffocating and depressing.

The middle-aged man with a beard is checking the unfortunate guy's injuries. The corruption has stopped. After all, he only broke in for such a short period of time and the amount of medicine he was exposed to is limited. Even so, black flesh and blood have appeared, with a small piece of obvious

The visible black bones were like carbon, and there was still a trace of blood oozing out. The paralysis of the body was not without its benefits, at least the pain was much weaker now.

The result of the middle-aged man's examination was something like "bone-melting water", and the wound was simply treated within his ability.

The man hidden in the darkness exuded a powerful aura that no one could ignore. Even if they couldn't see clearly, no one dared to look directly at him. They lowered their heads, wishing that even their own breath would disappear.

The man laughed suddenly, "It's interesting, isn't it?"

Originally, in their opinion, it was a very simple thing that did not require any technical skills. However, the result was a bad start and a tooth was broken. Although it did not hurt the muscles and bones, it was indeed very painful.

But if no one picks up the man, maybe it’s because he doesn’t need to, or maybe he doesn’t dare.

"There is such a master of medicine in a high school. Even if we can't use it, we should find out who he is and, more importantly, whether he will have an impact on what we want to do." He didn't sound angry.

"I won't go to the Imperial City now."

The others also remained silent as the leader abandoned his mission and wanted to find out what he was interested in.

Therefore, for the rest of the night, the entire inn was safe and sound, and nothing happened again. It even made people think that what happened before was really just a little thief with temporary malicious intent who broke in.

Wei Tingyu sat quietly all night, because he no longer threatened Xiaocao. Even if the unknown danger still existed, it could not make his heart waver again. It has to be said that although it was only a short three years, Wei Tingyu had definitely grown to

It was a terrifying situation. As long as Xiaocao was not involved, his inner strength was so strong that even among tens of millions of people, perhaps few could compare with him.

As the saying goes, "A person who stands in a wall and has no desires will be strong." A person who is indifferent to life and death, coupled with an absolutely smart mind, even if his body is extremely weak, is powerful beyond other people's imagination.

As for Xiaocao, she is the kind of person who always only focuses on the things that should be focused on. Other things have a sense of letting nature take their own course. They don’t flinch when encountering something, and they don’t pursue it when they avoid it. Therefore, after the incident, they didn’t want to

To investigate, although it is necessary to stifle the danger to avoid being passive, Xiaocao is also self-aware and does not touch things that are laborious and may not yield results.

In the morning, when An Ran had breakfast, Zhen Muchao still talked to her, smiling and carefree. She was unaware of what happened last night. It was not just her, but others too. Xiaocao did not let her know.

They knew the plan.

After gathering and gathering, we continued on our journey. Today's journey was much shorter than yesterday's. We estimated that we would reach our destination in the afternoon.

But I don’t know if it was because of what happened last night. Not long after setting off, Xiaocao always felt as if someone was watching them. In fact, they were not the only ones along the way. After all, they were still on the official road. Last night

Anyone staying at the inn may leave this morning, so there are people before and after, and occasionally you can meet people heading to the imperial city.

Therefore, Xiaocao is not sure whether it is an illusion or someone is really watching them. If it is the former, nothing will happen. If it is the latter, then it must be related to the person who broke into their yard last night.

Maybe it was because I suffered a loss at her hands that I came up with the idea of ​​doing something further.

Although it may be safer to return to the Imperial City at this time, it is only one day's journey from the Imperial City. Although it does not take that long to speed up, it is impossible to grow wings and fly back. If something happens, this section of the journey will

Anything could happen, there was no need, so Xiaocao chose to move on.

In comparison, Wei Tingyu and the others stayed almost until the "last", and "those people" followed Xiaocao. This can be confirmed. Wei Tingyu had people search the entire inn, and sure enough, some bodies were found.

Unexpectedly, these people should be people from the original inn. Apart from such things, Wei Tingyu cannot stand by and watch. In fact, the origins of this group of people are unknown. Who knows if they have any contact with the group of people who previously investigated the Qi Dynasty officials? If so

Contact is the best. Some disconnected clues can be continued. If it weren't so troublesome, it wouldn't be a headache if one wave hasn't been completed yet and another wave comes.

Wei Tingyu did not delay too long because of this. He left two people behind and notified Kaiping Guards to follow behind.

His speed was not very fast, so he almost always kept the same distance from Xiaocao, but this did not mean that he was unaware of the situation ahead. After learning that those people at the inn were so blatantly targeting Xuan

Son, Wei Tingyu couldn't help but frowned.

The behavior of this group of people is obviously completely different from those of the previous ones in the Imperial City. These people are obviously much more courageous. Of course, they may also think that they are so unscrupulous because they think they have not yet entered the Imperial City.

After leaving the official road, they were not far from their destination. However, Xiaocao was now sure that they were indeed being targeted. Not only that, after a certain distance, they would be given directly to them.

Stopped.

At this moment, Zhen Muyao and the others realized something was wrong belatedly. The servants guarded their carriage in the middle. Everyone was obviously scared, but they did not forget their responsibilities.

Zhen Muchao's face was solemn, and she looked at Xiaocao with some doubts. She didn't want Xiaocao to give her an answer or anything, but Xiaocao gave her the answer instead. After listening to Xiaocao's simple narration, Zhen Muchao

Cursing in a low voice, he looked at Xiaocao with a bit of reproach, "How can Sister Xuan face this kind of thing alone? If there is an emergency..."

Zhen Muyao has been naughty and mischievous since she was a child, and she is also very courageous. However, given the identity of the Zhen family, there is no real darkness and danger in her world. At this moment, she feels a little confused in her heart.

She was a little scared, but since her lover and friends were here, it was impossible for her to back down. She got up and got ready to go.

Xiaocao held her down and said, "They should all follow us today. It should be because I took the medicine and they are coming for me. Hao Sheng is alone. It is best not to have a conflict. Jian Shu is here, protect him."

, don’t get hurt. I’ll go down and have a look.”

"But……"

"Muyao, it's nothing to worry about. They are somewhat wary of the medicine on me. It's not clear what the situation is. I may not have a chance to escape. Listen to me." Xiaocao said without refusal.

.

Zhen Muchao's lips moved slightly, and there was a bit of unwillingness in his eyes.

Jian Shu next to him also pursed his lips. He knew that he, a grown man, had become a burden now. In the past, he had to protect him from afar, but now, he was upset because of his incompetence. - It was Xiaocao.

Sensing something was wrong, he made an excuse and asked Jian Shu to follow him through the traffic.

"I don't know which master was the one who took the medicine at the inn last night. My master is very interested in the research of various medicines. Please meet me."

Xiaocao glanced at the carriage curtain, then looked at Zhen Muyao, her eyes almost said, "Look, it's true," and "If you can escape later, you can go back to the imperial city directly."

Zhen Muchao is not the kind of person who is not clear-headed. He knows that now is not the time for "all kinds of disapproval", "Sister Xuan, be careful."

Xiaocao nodded, lifted the curtain of the carriage and went down, looking directly at the carriage following them. It didn't look like much outside, it was just bigger. Moreover, the guards around the carriage were all riding tall horses. Xiaocao had noticed it before.

This carriage, but these mounted guards do not exist, they appear out of nowhere.

The curtain of the carriage was hung up, with a layer of bead chains hanging on it. Xiaocao could only vaguely see the outline of the man leaning inside. Apart from anything else, he was a man with a strong sense of presence.

.

He didn't know what the other party was going to do, and Xiaocao didn't want to take the lead.

Comparatively, Xiaocao couldn't see the people in the carriage clearly, but the people in the carriage could see Xiaocao clearly and "looked at each other" silently, because they knew last night that there were no elderly people in Xiaocao's group.

People, so when I saw that the person who was "strongly taking medicine" was a young and beautiful girl, I didn't find it surprising.

No, it was still a bit surprising. After all, this was very different from the noble women he knew. Those women were delicate and arrogant. They usually raised their chins high and looked at people with their nostrils, but whenever something happened, they would immediately restrain themselves.

Nothing, only trembling, screaming in terror, and squeezing them to death is boring. But the one in front of me is different. This is a truly proud girl, unfazed by favors and humiliations.

He laughed suddenly, with a bit of a low tone, which I really wanted to hear, but unfortunately, Xiaocao was not a voice controler. Seriously speaking, because he was playing with knives and needles, Xiaocao might have some hand control.

"What are you going to eat? Why don't you invite the distinguished guests?"

The people standing far away outside Xiaocao's carriage immediately made a "please" gesture to Xiaocao.

Xiaocao walked over without hesitation, and when passing the carriage where the maid was sitting behind, she said, "Miss..." The maid opened a corner of the curtain, with fear, Xiaocao glanced over with a cold look, and the maid seemed to understand.

What she meant was that she shut her mouth obediently and lowered the curtains.

After walking in, Xiaocao discovered that the other party's carriage was at least ten centimeters higher than the usual carriage. She glanced at the horse pulling the carriage. Although she didn't know much about horses, the horse didn't seem to be very ordinary on the outside.

It's not eye-catching, but looking at its body shape, you can probably tell that it's a good horse, maybe of a very high grade.

It would be a bit inelegant to climb up on a stool without a footrest, especially if the person following her had no intention of helping her. It was not because of the difference between men and women, but because of fear and fear of what was hidden in her body.

Local medicine.

From Xiaocao's point of view, she really thinks too much. Xiaocao is a medical practitioner, not a poisoner. Even if there are some "evil" drugs, she will not get them on her body. It is not difficult for her at this altitude.

Just when she was about to go up, the man inside coughed, and the person beside Xiaocao couldn't help but trembled, and immediately knelt down and used Xiaocao as a meat stool.

There are some rules that Xiaocao doesn't challenge. She has accepted so many people around her. However, she never beats or scolds the people around her. The human stool is a bit of a challenge to her.

.

The man in the carriage got up and walked to the door. He put one hand on the door frame and stretched the other hand towards the grass. He was smiling and his eyes were as natural and casual as if he were looking at an old acquaintance.

Just as Xiaocao was about to step aside, the man smiled and said, "Girl, do you think he is not worthy of even stepping on your feet? Then there is no need to keep such a person."

As soon as he finished speaking, the nearest person on horseback threw a dagger, stabbed it into the back of the neck of the person kneeling on the ground, and penetrated the entire neck. The person covered his neck,

Without making a sound, he lay completely on the ground, blood dripping from his neck.

Being so caught off guard, a human life died in front of him. When encountering such a completely unreasonable person who did not take human life seriously, Xiaocao would naturally not blame this person's death on himself. Even so, he still endured it.

He couldn't help but close his eyes, and he couldn't quite control the emotion on his face, but it wasn't fear, but disgust, a disgust for not taking human life seriously.

The man on the carriage seemed to find it very interesting.

When Xiaocao took a closer look, the man who had just started to kill had already turned over, kicked the people on the ground away, and took the place of the human stool. However, he did not kneel down, but knelt down on one knee, keeping his body as tight as possible.

Press down.
