Chapter 137 The Lord, Xiang Bo and Bai Qi (2)(1/2)
"what happened?"
A group of masked swordsmen quickly walked ahead and chopped thorns with swords to clear the way. They did not dare to take the official road and chose a rugged mountain road.
Chen Baiqi took a look and grabbed Si Jiang while no one was paying attention. The two of them walked next to each other, biting their ears mysteriously.
Si Jiang really enjoyed her little secret gesture. He bent down, leaned close to her ear and breathed: "I coaxed them here. They don't know your identity."
As for how to coax him, Chen Baiqi didn't bother to ask. After all, Si Jiang had a cunning mind and could persuade anyone who wanted to kill him.
Chen Baiqi: "..." So actually he recognized her right away...
Chen Baiqi, who was deeply aware of how unreliable his disguise was, felt that he should engage in less dramatic double-espionage activities in the future.
Chen Baiqi observed the surrounding environment, including the bright moon, sparse stars, and weeds and trees all over the mountain: "You can stay out of my way for a while, and I'll go change back into men's clothes."
"Are you going to change back?" Si Jiang blinked, the moonlight seemed to be shining, and a wave of autumn water splashed out, and his tone was low, as if it was a pity.
Chen Baiqi and Si Jiang were always casual, so she rolled her eyes gracefully: "How can we find Su Fang when we come back? The mission has been completed. I estimate that if nothing happens, we can return to Qi State with Meng Changjun tomorrow.
"
Si Jiang winked and asked curiously: "What happened in Tianxiang Pavilion just now? A group of soldiers suddenly rushed out and surrounded Ruyi Square inside and outside. I was not allowed to speak.
No one is allowed to leave. If some people hadn’t evacuated from behind, I’m afraid we wouldn’t have been able to escape so easily.”
Chen Baiqi curled his eyes with a smile and asked in a strange voice: "Oh, how did you escape?"
Even if a unit of troops is withdrawn, since entry and exit are strictly prohibited, the necessary pass must be guarded and guarded.
As soon as Si Jiang heard this, he immediately smiled, and all the previously curious questions were forgotten, and he just talked about it.
He wouldn't say that Gou Er raked a dog hole and got them out one by one!
"If you don't tell me, I'll have to talk to you about what happened at Xiang Pavilion that day when I'm free."
With that said, Chen Baiqi was about to duck into the forest at night and change his clothes. However, he was suddenly snatched back by Si Jiang. She turned her head in confusion, but a hand caught her before she could react.
, directly lifted the mask on her face.
Chen Baiqi blinked subconsciously.
In the night, under the dim moonlight, a beautiful and white face bloomed in front of Si Jiang's eyes. Her eyes were like butterfly wings. She woke up from a sweet dream and saw a March flower. The flying flowers dispersed like smoke.
This is a face that is different from "Chen Jiao Niang's". It has long eyebrows and beautiful eyes. It is quite beautiful. It is obviously completely different, but it has an expression very similar to "Chen Jiao Niang's".
Si Jiang opened his arms to cover her face. She was like a baby bird being protected under his wings. She looked up, like spring water chasing green waves. He smiled: "You can't go back, right?"
She really didn't just change her face, but her whole person changed from beginning to end.
Chen Baiqi was stunned for a moment, and then he could only remain silent, not knowing how to answer him.
"That's all, go quickly, go."
Not wanting to see her in trouble, Si Jiang quickly returned the fox mask to her, then turned around to cover the front for her.
"It's true that we can't go back."
Chen Baiqi finally murmured and got into the forest, while Si Jiang still curled his lips and smiled, but I was afraid that only he understood at this moment what he was laughing about.
Not long after, the dazzling "Chen Huanxian" wearing a "Kilin Witch Doctor Robe" came online.
Her beautiful and slightly romantic blue robe was enough to make Si Jiang look sideways.
How could she, who had always been so low-key and only wore white robes, suddenly adopt the coquettish style of a high temple court?
Chen Baiqi did not explain, but said directly: "Let's go, let's go to the inn first."
"Mr. Mengchang has returned to the inn?"
"kindness."
Before talking about anything serious, Si Jiang changed the topic again: "What kind of magic is this, that you can change men and women like this?"
Chen Baiqi replied enigmatically: "Don't ask, you won't be able to learn it anyway."
Si Jiang: "..."
Has anyone ever told her that she will be struck by lightning if she pretends to be cool?
When they finally reached a gentle slope of shallow grass and low trees, they looked down at the dark and rolling hills behind them. Seeing that there were no pursuers below, they stopped and walked slowly.
Gou Er let out a big breath and turned around. It was too dark just now and he was walking too fast, so he didn't notice what was going on behind him. Now when he turned around, he vaguely saw Si Jiang standing with a slender figure.
, he immediately stepped forward to take a look and saw that it was really "Chen Huanxian". He immediately exclaimed in shock: "Huh? Huanxian, Brother Chen, why is it you? Huh? Where is the sister-in-law who was rescued by us just now?"
This dog's nature is to climb the sky and the earth, and it is getting more and more familiar with it. It dares to open its mouth and call it any name.
At the moment, he was still the attendant of "Chen Huanxian", but he dared to call her Brother Chen and her name, which was really audacious. But fortunately, he was very alert. After shouting, he realized that he had shouted too loudly, and immediately covered his mouth and peeked around, for fear of being caught.
People heard it.
Chen Baiqi said: "She completed her task and left naturally."
"Then what is her relationship with you?" Gou Er ran up and asked with bright eyes.
Chen Baiqi gave a long uh-huh, and replied reservedly: "She is a long-lost... girl."
"Chen Huanxian" and "Chen Rong" looked alike. This time "Chen Huanxian" disappeared and "Chen Rong" appeared without warning. It would inevitably arouse others' suspicion, so she simply found something for them.
It's easy to get along.
"Oh~ I wonder if my sister has a husband?" Gou Er asked again.
Chen Baiqi glanced at him suspiciously: "Shang Mo, why are you asking these questions?"
When Gou Er heard this, his face lit up with a smile, and he jumped up to her: "Well, that house, you... see how I am?" He only didn't say clearly: How do I match your girl?
Chen Baiqi was stunned. He really didn't expect Gou Er to fall in love with "Chen Rong".
Si Jiang crossed his arms and sneered: "Not very good."
Gou Er immediately jumped up, puffed out his chest and shouted, "I'm quite talented."
Si Jiang continued to insert the knife: "It's like a dog."
"You...you bully people!" Gou Er was anxious and wanted to talk to Si Jiang Haosheng for an argument, but Si Jiang knew martial arts and he couldn't beat him, so he could only bark and roar on the side.
When the other swordsmen saw "Chen Huanxian" appearing at the back of the team, they gathered around in surprise and asked her where she had been before. After learning that "Xiang Girl" was played by "Chen Rong", and "Chen Rong"
After it turned out to be the girl from "Chen Huanxian", everyone's eyes lit up.
They all asked if she had arranged the previous scene secretly, if their mission had been completed, and if "Chen Rong" had met the lord in Tianxiang Pavilion...
Chen Baiqi listened to a group of people talking to each other like fifty ducks, noisy enough that he felt a headache, and said: "Okay, stop arguing, there are still many things to do, don't gossip, hurry up
Hit the road."
When he saw "Chen Huanxian", his eyebrows dropped coldly, his dark eyes were clear in black and white, and his pupils were filled with cold steam.
Everyone fell silent for a moment and exchanged glances secretly.
Obediently, "Chen Huanxian", who usually looked as gentle as cotton and spoke softly, now looked as cold as ice, and indeed had the aura to kill and seize an army general, quite majestic.
——
Chen Baiqi and his party rushed to the inn without stopping. From a distance, Chen Baiqi saw the torches outside the pitch-black wall, winding like a fire dragon, and seemed to be heavily guarded.
They did not dare to get too close, so they only found a low wall not far away to observe the situation of the inn.
"Hey, why are we hiding here? Why don't we go up?"
"Don't make any noise. Didn't you see many Qin soldiers coming to the post?"
"With so many soldiers, do they really plan to put our lord under house arrest in Qin?"
"...Perhaps these soldiers were sent to protect our lord?"
Everyone stared at the speaker - where is your brain? Is it just for display?!
Chen Baiqi ignored this group of swordsmen whose IQs were often off-line. No matter how she looked at them, she felt something was wrong.
This post is located next to the south gate of the inner city. It is neither an important military station nor an ambush point. Even though Lord Mengchang is temporarily staying here at the moment, there is no reason to send so many troops here due to the current turmoil at home and abroad.
Is this place idle?
At this time, there was a slight movement from behind. Chen Bai raised his ears and saw Su Fang getting out of nowhere. He saw them at a glance, gave them a look, and led them to the depths of a remote alley.
, there was a faint light coming from the tile kiln of the house, illuminating a corner of the black wall.
He asked: "Have you found this place too? Has everything been settled?"
Seeing that he arrived at the inn first, Chen Bai knew that he had other special information channels, so he didn't ask any more questions and just said: "The token you handed over has been in the hands of the lord. What happened at this inn?"
Seeing that they had done everything well, Su Fang's stern expression softened a little. He said seriously: "I'm afraid things are not going well. There was a group of people who escorted the lord and the others to the inn and then left. I was thinking about it.
The guard was lax, and I wanted to break into the post station to meet my lord, but unexpectedly, before the arrangements were made, another group of troops came and surrounded the inn.
Those transferred from the imperial palace look like some of Ying Ji's fierce soldiers and generals."
After hearing this, Chen Baiqi couldn't bear to think more.
After leaving and returning, he was heavily guarded and prohibited from entering or exiting. Could it be that... Yingji was planning to go back on his word and not let Lord Mengchang leave?
There must be a reason for suddenly regretting something. What happened during the time when you left and came back again?
To be continued...
