Farming and reading family

Chapter 701 Snake Staff

This is not the first or second time that the princess has committed robbery. If something really happens in He County, this gathering may be completely ruined.

Gao E thought about this possibility: "What if the princess is interested in someone like Ye Linchuan, and he wants to be her lover?"

"Don't mention it." Jin Ruyi became excited. "If Ye Linchuan knew that the princess was here, he would probably have this idea."

Gao E thought about it and agreed: "With Ye Linchuan fighting and vying for power in front, the people invited by Mr. Du may be able to escape the disaster."

"No kidding." Jin Ruyi's expression was serious. "I'm worried that if the gods fight, the little devils will get hurt. I've already figured out what happened last night. Those men in black were brought here by Miss Qiu. What if the person who tried to assassinate Miss Qiu refuses to give up?"

"Nothing will happen for the time being." Gao E guessed.

After all, all the Zhao family members are dead, so there is no need for them to be too drastic.

"Why do I feel like it's a big deal?" Jin Ruyi was worried.

Gao E felt that Jin Ruyi was very perceptive: "Even if the sky is broken, it can be mended and it will be fine."

Jin Ruyi was sure that it was a big deal.

Prince Bin listened to the noisy sounds at the banquet over there and thought that his sister would probably have another lover. He wondered who she would fall in love with this time.

"Your Highness, why don't you go over and say hello to the eldest princess?" Xue Hanyan reminded.

"My royal sister doesn't want me to disturb her." Prince Bin wanted to find Jin Ruyi, but he felt that Jin Ruyi would find him annoying.

In the past, it was always women who tried to please him, and he never thought that he could be annoying.

It seems that hiding one's identity is still useful, and it can give me a different feeling than before.

He walked outside the house, listened to the frogs croaking, and looked up at the sky.

The sky is clear now, why are there no stars at night?

Ye Linchuan wanted to find Jin Ruyi, or to confirm whether the woman was Jin Ruyi, but he was worried about being discovered by Miss Qiu's people, so he had to stay in the house.

Now that the Jin family is gone, Jin Ruyi has no one to rely on, and he can easily get his son back.

As the night grew deeper, Xu Boyan took a group of yamen runners out into the streets.

He did not ask anyone to check on the people who had stayed in the inn in the past two days, so as not to alert the enemy, and planned to take them by surprise at night.

When they arrived at the street with many inns, Xu Boyan opened the wax ball of snake-attracting incense, and everyone became alert.

Zhu Mo jumped directly onto the top of the wall. He was targeting people instead of snakes.

In a remote courtyard, Qu Zhonglai, wrapped in a tattered robe, was leaning against the wall to rest, holding a fine steel snake staff. Suddenly, the snake in his sleeve swam out.

"Xiao Hei, go to sleep." Qu Zhonglai touched the snake's head.

Xiao Hei, who is usually very obedient, just hesitated for a moment and then continued to walk out.

At this time, the snakes around all crawled out from the cracks in the rocks and walls.

Qu Zhonglai suddenly became solemn. He was good at controlling snakes. Could it be that there was someone in the county whose snake controlling skills were better than his?

Thinking of this, he followed the snakes out. He wanted to see what kind of master they were.

Some snakes had appeared around Xu Boyan and his men, but they were not very big. As soon as they crawled over, they were chopped into two pieces by the surrounding yamen runners.

But this situation is quite scary.

When Qu Zhonglai was about to reach the street with many inns, Feng became alert. There were more and more snakes around. What should the snake tamer do?

Could it be that they discovered his actions in He County Prison?

But he gritted his teeth and continued forward.

Suddenly he saw a flash of sword light and hurriedly raised his snake staff to block it, then turned around and hid in the darkness to escape.

Zhu Mo saw that the other party's martial arts skills were not weak and he was using a snake staff, so he thought he must be the person his master was looking for, so he chased after him closely.

Xu Boyan heard the sound of fighting and immediately ran over here.

When Qu Zhonglai heard a noise, he flicked his finger and a small snake popped out. Zhu Mo dodged the small snake in a somewhat embarrassed manner and did not hold the sword tightly in his hand, so the sword fell to the ground with a clang.

Qu Zhonglai saw Zhu Mo drop his weapon and attacked with his snake staff.

In a hurry, Zhu Mo pulled out the dagger tied to his calf to block.

Qu Zhonglai thought that even if the snake staff was not poisoned in time, it would still take half of the opponent's life. As a result, the sound of golden swords was heard, and the snake head of his snake staff was cut off.

He stared at the handle of the staff in his hand for a moment, then turned and ran when he heard footsteps getting closer.

When everyone ran over, they only saw the man's back disappear in an instant.

"Stop chasing." Xu Boyan saw someone chasing after him.

The best martial artist among them is Zhu Mo, and even Zhu Mo is no match for the other party, so it is useless for them to chase him.

"My subordinate..." Zhu Mo said that he was careless.

"Master." Bai Hao picked up the snake head on the side.

Xu Boyan glanced at the snakehead and said, "Take him back."

Although the person was not caught, it was confirmed that the death of the person in the cell was man-made.

As soon as Gao E got up, Lu Hao was waiting outside with a sad face.

"What happened?" Gao E quickly washed up. "Did you lose your money?"

"If it's just the money that's lost, it's easy." Lu Qingluo and Lianxin were the only ones in Lu Haokan's room. "Lord Xu asked me to ask my elder sister to go to the government office."

He didn't know when Lord Xu had targeted him, and he could lose his life if he wasn't careful.

Gao E still wanted to wait here for Zheng Xiaoshun to come with Que'er. Xu Boyan asked Lu Hao to come to her so early. Could something big have happened?

"Okay, I understand. You can go back first." Gao E looked at Lu Hao's distressed expression and said, "It's okay."

"Are you really okay?" Lu Hao was unsure. "Sister, you know I'm timid. Don't lie to me."

"Just leave quickly and don't get discovered, and everything will be fine." Gao E said unhappily.

"Okay." Lu Hao looked around and saw that there was no one around, so he left quickly.

At first, Lu Qingluo hated Lu Hao's timid and fearful look, but later he got used to it.

Gao E didn't eat breakfast. After washing up, she took Lu Qingluo and Lianxin to the county government office.

There were not many people on the street, but they were all shocked because they found a lot of snakes on the ground when they woke up in the morning. They thought it might be another natural disaster.

When Gao E arrived at the back court, Xu Boyan was eating and motioned her to sit down and eat with him.

"Let's get down to business." Gao E wanted to eat, so she could eat no matter where she went.

Xu Boyan signaled Bai Hao to bring the snake head of the snake staff.

Bai Hao handed a box to Gao E.

Gao E opened it and saw a metal snake head. He looked at Xu Boyan with a puzzled look.

"I used snake-attracting incense to lure him out last night." Xu Boyan said directly, "He ran away. This is a snake staff that Zhu Mo cut off. It was thanks to the dagger you gave him."

Gao E looked carefully at the lifelike snake head, which was hollow inside. She reached out to touch the teeth on the snake's head.

"Don't touch it," Xu Boyan warned. "I compared it with the wounds on the corpse. The spacing and size are exactly the same as the teeth on this snake's head."

"So... those people died because of this snake staff?" Gao E suddenly realized, "Then all we have to do is catch that person."

"It's easy to say. That person didn't stay at the inn. I've already ordered martial law at the city gates. I'll go back and see Miss Qiu before making any plans."
