Emerald Unicorn in Plum Garden

Riding on the ancient road, Qi Zhuangzhu was anxious.I have been thinking about how far I am from Zhuang Yu and others, and how long it will take to catch up.He walked forward without daring to stop, for fear that he would not be able to catch up if he stopped for a while.Liang Jisheng's words lingered in his mind: the poison accumulated in your body will explode tonight.

It was that proud voice of disdain: "Hmph, I knew he would have this move, and everyone who should have left has left. Meiyuan is now an empty city, and I don't think you will be able to jump out of my palm again." Opposite the room A person standing in the center said: "Order to go down, get ready, and set off early tomorrow morning to catch him back." The person who took the order saluted and left the room.

The sky gradually darkened, and the owner of Yuzhuang and his party stopped in the wilderness.Chu Xiaodao: "Let's rest here for a while, fill our stomachs and continue on the road." In response, everyone took out dry food on the spot.It took only a moment for Master Yu and the others to set off on the road again, and the sound of horseshoes from far to near accompanied by the dust kicked up flew by all the way.

Glancing at the road ahead, the owner of Yuzhuang said: "There are towns more than 70 miles away, we can rush there overnight. We can also take a good rest for a while, otherwise, everyone will be exhausted before reaching Qi's Village." Chu Xiao They only responded lightly and did not say much. They didn't know that there was also a person chasing after them.

At this moment, General Lin of Xidu received the news of the elimination of Feixia Villa.Putting the letter on the desk: "Very well, pass on the order to wipe out all the remaining villas." After saying that, he waved his hand to the person who came to report and signaled him to retreat.After the people left, General Lin said to himself: "It's time to find Shang Mingzhao and the others for the next step."

The left eye in the inn was pacing back and forth in the room, and suddenly a figure jumped in through the window.Zuo Guan looked alertly, but a smile gradually appeared on his face: "Feng Tang, it's you?!" He stepped up to Feng Tang who was standing not far from the window, and patted him on the shoulder.

Feng Tang looked at him quietly, and realized that Feng Tang's mood was different from before, Zuo Guan said: "What's wrong?" Feng Tang opened his mouth and asked: "Zuo Kan, tell me honestly, do you know what happened in Feixia Villa? "

Zuo Kan's eyes were startled: "What happened to Feixia Villa?" He shook his head: "Well, I really don't know." Feng Tang took a deep breath: "Do you know, ever since Yu Zixin and Yu Zirong met Lin Zhihao , The imperial court sent a large number of officers and soldiers to start the siege of Jiudazhuang."

Thinking about what he said, he glanced left and said, "You mean Miss and Young Master conspired with General Lin? Impossible, Miss You Qi, she wouldn't do that. Feng Tang, please explain the matter more clearly .”

Feng Tang said: "Three days ago, we came to Xidu, and learned from the people of Master Chen Shaozhuang that you and Lin Zhihao took over. Today, it was reported that Feixia Villa was destroyed by the court yesterday evening."

Zuo Kan frowned and thought: "How could such a thing happen? Could it be that Miss and Young Master went to find General Lin, and he took advantage of it after learning about Jiu Dazhuang's situation in Plum Garden? But, he and Master Yu knew each other..." In one word, I reminded myself.Zuo Kan came to his senses: "It seems that this General Lin is not a kind person, and Miss has mistrusted others."

Listening to his self-analysis, Feng Tang said: "Zuo Kan, I believe that you are a person, there must be other strange things about this matter. I hope you can keep the matter of meeting you today as a secret and don't make it public. "

Looking left, he bowed: "Feng Tang, don't worry, I will observe secretly to see what's going on." Feng Tang returned the salute, turned around and jumped out of the window, disappearing.

In the courtyard, Qiongyi called out cutely: "Brother Han." Zhongqi responded to her while chopping firewood: "Huh? What's the matter?" Qiongyi squatted beside him: "Is Yun Zhouzi okay?"

Zhongqi chopped off a piece of firewood: "That kid's life is colorful and nourishing. He has Yueting and Yueji to accompany him, and he is always looking for someone for her little senior aunt."

Qiongyi blinked twice: "Looking for someone? Aunt Su's sweetheart is you, who else is she looking for?" Zhongqi stopped chopping firewood, coughed a few times: "You call her aunt, and me brother?"

Qiongyi showed helplessness: "Yeah, I have to call after my grandfather. He told me to call me Auntie, so I will be called Auntie. When you two get married, I will call you Uncle." Zhong Qi joined in Stepping forward: "Then you can call uncle now, and there will be sweets for you."

Qiongyi turned her face away: "Cut, don't lie to me. My lord always doesn't mean what he says, so I won't be fooled by you." After her words fell, laughter came from the side.They both turned their heads to look at the same time, at some time, Qingling and Ruan Er stood behind them.

Qingling stopped laughing: "Zhongqi, are you being too impatient, which makes other children start calling you uncle." Zhongqi clapped his hands and stood up: "Cough, isn't this just to tease the children."

Qingling stepped forward, putting her hands on Qiongyi's shoulders who had just stood up: "Qiongyi is not a child who is easy to deceive, please don't treat her like a child." Looking at Qiongyi, Zhong Qi had nothing to say. explain.

Ruan Er behind him said: "Has Feng Tang come back?" Zhong Qi shook his head: "Not yet, I've been gone for a long time." At this time, someone stepped into the courtyard door with a call: "Brother, sister Ruan Er , Sister Qingling." Seeing his appearance, everyone naturally asked him what he learned from Zuo Kan.

Before and after Feng Tang finished his complaint, he also made the same guess as Yu Zhuang and the others: "I'm afraid Yu Zixin and the others are being used by Lin Zhihao without knowing it." Zhong Qi frowned: "I don't know where Meiyuan got the news. I have to contact them immediately."

Ruan Er said: "How do you contact us? We have neither pigeons nor messengers here." Qingling smiled: "Yes, Gu Shen." Zhong Qi, Feng Tang, and Ruan Er said in unison, "Gu Shen?"

Qingling replied: "That's right, don't look at Shen Gu who doesn't talk usually, her skill is not inferior to my father's. Otherwise, how could she keep guarding this mansion in peace."

Zhongqi thought for a while: "We'd better tell Mr. Yun Lao and Uncle Shang about this matter in advance." Everyone agreed and went to Yun Xiaozi and Shang Mingzhao to discuss the matter together.

The discussions here are orderly, but the plum garden doesn't seem to be very organized. You express your opinions with each other.Especially Yun Zhouzi's voice was very loud, and Yueting was competing with him not to be outdone.

Tang Mengku stopped him in a low voice at first: "Yueting, Yun Zhouzi, you, don't, you are so noisy, don't..." Seeing that they didn't listen to persuasion at all, Tang Mengku slapped the table directly.The sky-shattering sound finally made the surroundings quiet.

Feeling that the rhythm of a leaf falling slowly could be picked up by his ears, Tang Mengku raised his hand and shook it violently: "Oh, hiss." Yue Ting looked at him with a little contempt: "It's useless!" Is it true that you are a scholar?"

Tang Mengku blew two breaths into the palm of his hand: "Okay, let's get back to the topic. After hearing what Qiushuang said, I guess that Meiyuan will inevitably face another disaster." Qiushuang asked: "Mr. Tang, what do you say?"

Tang Mengku analyzed: "Do you think, why did Zhuangzhu Qi come to the Plum Garden?" Li Mao took the conversation: "Didn't you say that you were threatened by Liang Jisheng?" This sentence led Tang Mengku to ask: "Why did Qi Zhuang come to the Plum Garden?" Will the villa owner be threatened by him? Is it because his martial arts are not as good as him or for some other reason?" He asked twice, reminding everyone.

Qiu Shuang was the first to react: "Master Qi must have been poisoned by him." Tang Mengku said: "Well, since this is the case, Liang Jisheng has no reason to let go of the opportunity to follow him. Now, he did not follow Liang Jisheng's words. , then Liang Jisheng must have known about our situation here."

Yueting said: "Oh no, Sister Yanran and the others are gone, Meiyuan is now opening the gate to welcome Liang Jisheng." In an instant, Li Mao's sense of crisis came to his mind: "Isn't it, this person surnamed Liang is still in Taizhou? "

Qiushuang glanced at the slightly disdainful eyes of the three little guys towards her, and said in a low voice, "Miss, you don't react so slowly, okay?" Yun Zhouzi sneered twice: "How did you survive to this day?" Yueting Answered Yun Zhouzi's words: "It is said that her luck is so loud."

Tang Mengku lowered his head and coughed lightly: "Forget about these things, let's think about what to do first. Brother Qi, what good strategy do you have?" Uncle Qi looked back and forth at everyone: "Liang Jisheng's martial arts is not a problem, What I am most afraid of is that if he brings a large number of people here, then we can be said to be alone."

Yueting walked around the table a few times with her little hands behind her back, and several people around her stared at her curiously.Yue Ji said: "Sister, have you thought of any ideas?" She stopped and said, "Brother Tang, when do you think they will come?"

Tang Mengku thought carefully: "Well, I don't think today will come tomorrow. They won't delay too long and let go of such a good opportunity." Yue Ting thought carefully about his words: "Yes, just follow Qi Xiaoshi Uncle said, then we should be ready to open the door to welcome Liang Jisheng and his arrival." With her words, everyone looked at each other.

After discussing, Yun Xiaozi said: "It is better to let Shen Gu rush to Meiyuan to report the news." Yun Zhan asked: "Father, what do you say?" Shang Mingzhao said: "Based on the route, they have to deal with The next target is Qijiazhuang. Why don't we have someone rush there directly, together with the people of Qijiazhuang to resist the court. In this way, won't Meiyuan be out of danger?"

Everyone nodded in agreement one after another, Feng Tang took the initiative to stand up: "Let me and Shen Gu go to Qi's Village, you are here to deal with Lin Zhihao." Zhong Qi watched this younger brother for a long time, raised his hand and patted his shoulder: "Feng Tang, thank you for your hard work." Yes. Take the Akabane Twin Phoenix Sword, this sword is yours from today, because I always feel that I have nothing to do with it."

Feng Tang smiled knowingly: "Can you really give it to me?" Zhong Qi smiled and said: "Of course, this sword can be said to have accompanied you many times in life and death, and the time in my hand is less than half of the time in your hand. Remember Take care of yourself and be careful.”

Yun Xiaozi admired: "You two brothers will definitely be famous figures in the Jianghu in the future." Feng Tang turned his gaze to Yun Xiaozi: "Senior Yun, don't you have a saying that fame is tiring. The juniors don't want to have What a prestigious name, I just hope that I can do my best."

Shang Mingzhao called out: "Gu Shen, make some preparations, you and Brother An set out for Qi's Village, if you encounter officers and soldiers on the way, try to avoid them as much as possible." After receiving orders, the two left immediately.

As night fell, the owner of Yuzhuang and his party came to the town.I randomly entered an inn in the town, and only stayed for an hour or two.Zhuangzhu Qi, who came later, looked at the street where the crowds had already receded, feeling very troubled in his heart.He didn't know whether Master Yuzhuang and the others were in town or if they were still on their way.While he was thinking hard, his feet gradually lost feeling.

Owner Qi, who hadn't felt anything yet, drove the horse: "Drive." At this moment, the feet on the stirrups were separated.The horse continued to gallop, and his body instantly fell off the horse's back, making a "bang dong", rolling twice, and the sound was even louder in this deserted street.

The sound of the horse's hooves didn't stop, and Zhuangzhu Qi rolled over to the ground. Looking up, he stared at the galloping horse and quickly disappeared under the night.Without a horse, Master Qi glanced at his unconscious feet and crawled forward resolutely.

Time passed quietly, and it was the time when Master Yu and his party left the inn.Step on the horseback and go forward in the night with the melting moonlight on your shoulders.The sky is shining with dawn.As soon as they left the town, the crawling Zhuang Zhu came into their sight. At this moment, he could no longer be said to be crawling, but wriggling with his arms.

Feeling that this person is familiar, Master Yu and Mei Fangzhi looked at each other in amazement, and they both got off their horses.Coming in front of this person, Mei Fangzhi turned him over: "Master Qi, is it really you? Aren't you in Xidu?"

The corner of Qi Zhuangzhu's mouth showed a comforting smile: "It's great to see you, I can't support you for long. Liang Jisheng is still in Taizhou. I was negligent and forgot to tell you this matter as soon as possible. Now, Meiyuan and Qijiazhuang... "
