Start from the thief

At dusk, Zhao Yushu watched Lan Ling carry her luggage, get on an ox cart, and leave the west gate before the Liaoyang City gate.

Although only a single word was exchanged between the two, Lan Ling would go to Linhuang Prefecture first and use her own strength to take care of everything before Zhao Yushu's arrival. When he had resolved the affairs of Liaoyang Prefecture, he would at least have a safe place to stay and as much help as possible.

Words like living and dying together are not suitable to be said between two people who understand each other.

The wolf girl's kick was very heavy. Even with Zhao Yushu's abnormal recovery ability and Assassin's continuous bloodsucking, it took him a day to recover. He was no match for him in a head-on confrontation.

He didn't have many chances, and he had to get rid of Xiao Peipei before the wolf girl arrived.

Zhao Yushu used the money he had begged to buy a few pancakes, and limped along amid the sound of curfew drums and the scolding of the officers. A look of embarrassment mixed with the joy of eating the pancakes was so great that even a real beggar could not tell the real one from the fake one.

The wolf girl has received four letters, each of which is from Xiao Peipei asking her to go back, but the wolf girl is unmoved.

The power of a mere letter is still too weak.

Wolves are both calm and crazy when hunting, and these two consciousnesses are enough to overwhelm all interference in the brain.

The wolf girl's silhouette kept flashing in the sky above Liaoyang Prefecture, at a speed so fast that most people would feel dizzy when they saw it. She had now changed her train of thought, and her nose kept twitching.

If that thief thought he could get away with it by smearing the smelly stuff all over his body, he would be underestimating the reputation of the wolf girl.

Although this city is full of dirty and smelly beggars, beggars also have a range of activities, and they like to gather together. If there is a beggar with an obviously smelly smell who leaves the group and keeps moving to a clean place, then it is naturally a big problem.

But this direction?

The wolf girl felt a hint of anxiety. This anxiety came from those letters, but also from a trace of resistance deep in her heart that she herself could not detect.

Ever since the fight with that thief, a subconscious part of me started to loosen.

Shaking her head, the wolf girl closed her eyes, took a deep breath in the night wind, moved her body, and ran towards the north.

In his previous life, Zhao Yushu had watched many spy and police films, and even Death Note: Elementary School Student had at least a thousand episodes. He thought he knew a lot about anti-tracking, but he didn't know that what he learned from books is always shallow, and his little tricks had been seen through by his senior sister.

The only chance now is that the two of them are far enough away from each other, the wolf girl is still in the south of the city, and he has already arrived outside the government office.

If he was fast enough, he might be able to get rid of Xiao Peipei before the wolf girl arrived, and then continue the sequel to The Fugitive.

The premise is that it is fast enough.

Xiao Peipei's irritation was growing. The exterior view of the hall was perfect, but she felt like she was being stared at by a poisonous snake all day and couldn't find the snake. This feeling was extremely terrible.

What’s even more frustrating is that once the wolf girl runs away, there’s no way to call her back.

"Go look for her again. When you find her, pass on my order and tell her to come back immediately!"

Xiao Peipei looked at the dark night sky outside the house and gave orders angrily, and dozens of servants under his command dispersed.

"What's the noise outside?!"

As soon as she sat down, Xiao Peipei heard a commotion outside the door. If she was not a cultivator, it would be fine, but she had open ears and could hear it even from dozens of feet away.

She was the favorite concubine of the Liao Emperor, but according to regulations she was not allowed to live in the palace in Liaoyang Prefecture when the Liao Emperor was away, so she could only live in the government office.

The government office is naturally not as big as the palace, and it is not quiet outside. It is already a curfew, but there are still people running around outside without knowing the consequences.

"Sir, there is a mute beggar outside who refuses to leave and has had a conflict with the boys. We are trying to catch him."

"court death!"

Xiao Peipei was feeling anxious and had no place to vent her anger, so she lifted her skirt and walked out quickly.

The gate of the government office opened with a bang. Xiao Peipei saw at a glance a beggar with a lame leg who ran faster than a rabbit. He was always able to dodge sticks and fists by a hair's breadth while being chased by a group of yamen runners, and he kept screaming "ah ah ah".

"Go away!"

Xiao Peipei shouted loudly, and the bailiffs hurriedly retreated. Then the imperial concubine stretched out her hand, and the beggar's whole body was suspended in the air, and then he flew towards her involuntarily.

Xiao Peipei pulled up a cruel smile and clenched her five fingers in the air. The next moment, this beggar would turn into a pool of blood rain.

Then she froze.

The beggar raised his uncontrollable hands, pulled back the hair covering his face, pulled out a hairpin from thin air and pinned it on his bun, then smiled at her.

"hello."

The spiritual power disturbed the night breeze.

The wolf girl rushed to the government office and saw a woman who was still breathing but not far from death. The other party had the ability to kill her directly, but chose to leave her alive, as if to let her tell the wolf girl something.

"Tangren! He is Tangren!"

Blood foamed continuously from Xiao Peipei's mouth. Her vital parts were pierced by the sword. She stared at the wolf girl with vicious eyes: "Why didn't you come earlier!"

The wolf girl showed no reaction to the condemnation, but instead looked at the wounds on her body with great interest.

Several of the wounds were caused by the same weapon as the ones on the back of her hand, enough to ensure that she had no chance of survival.

Just in case, Zhao Yushu even used Chengying to hit her. Even if the Great Perfection of External Scene could suppress the Red-Powdered Skeleton, the Heart Poison could also restrict her tightly.

"At least you are a perfect outdoor scene."

The wolf girl looked at Xiao Peipei with a half-smile: "Can't you hold on for just a moment?"

"Kill him! Wolf girl, I order you to kill him! No matter where you are, we will fight to the death!"

Xiao Peipei looked at the gradually deepening bloodshot in the wolf girl's eyes, issued a final command, tilted her head, and died.

The wolf girl stood up, tilted her head and thought for a while, then stood there for a whole incense stick of time. Then she let out a sigh, moved her feet, and disappeared.

Zhao Yushu let out a long sigh as he watched the wolf girl leave only a few feet away from him.

Xiao Peipei was not easy to kill. If she hadn't underestimated her enemy and been caught off guard, she could have been killed in a one-on-one duel, but it would not have been so fast.

After all, she is the woman of the Liao Emperor. In addition to her terrifying cultivation, she also has several good treasures.

Unfortunately, even with Zhao Yushu's full firepower, she still couldn't last more than ten moves before being defeated and killed.

But Zhao Yushu was not feeling well either. In order to kill Xiao Peipei, he only attacked and did not defend, and almost took all of Xiao Peipei's dying counterattacks. The wounds on his body were more serious than the kick from the wolf girl. It was not that he did not want to run, but he really did not have the strength to run.

So he decided to take a gamble. After changing his dirty and smelly clothes, he smeared some of Xiao Peipei's blood on himself, and then hid in the shadow of a corner not far away. At such a short distance, even the wolf girl couldn't clearly distinguish his scent.

As for keeping Xiao Peipei alive until now, it was just to observe what happened to the wolf girl.

As she spoke her last words, Zhao Yushu clearly saw the blood in the wolf girl's eyes.

Brainwashing?

It is impossible for the Liao people to have such incredible power.

For no reason, Zhao Yushu recalled an old memory.
