Chapter 27 Meeting
At Xiangcheng Station twenty miles away from Gusu City, a carriage drove into the station.
Xiao Chenping walked off the carriage, and the postmaster greeted him respectfully, "Young Master Xiao!"
Walking to the backyard of the inn, Xiao Chenping saw Xiao Yunque practicing his steps on the plum blossom stake. Bai Quan was observing whether Xiao Yunque's pace was wrong.
Xiao Yunque saw Xiao Chenping walking into the backyard and jumped off the plum blossom stake.
Xiao Yunque bowed and smiled, "Qi'er has seen the young master!"
"Young Master!" Bai Quan wanted to salute, but was stopped by Xiao Chenping.
"Old Bai, your injury has not healed yet! There is no need to salute you! I am here today to see how your injury has recovered!"
"I'm just a little breathless after I've been active for a long time! The rest is fine! These days, I've been burdened by the Skylark and take care of me, the rude guy!"
Xiao Yunque approached Bai Quan and said, "Master, what are you saying? Could it be that the idle disciples are not taking good care of you?"
"Cough cough!" Bai Quan coughed awkwardly, "Okay, Yunqiu, please go to Yicheng's place to get some ingredients and treat the young master well at noon!"
Xiao Yunque smiled and said, "Yeah! OK! Young Master, I'll go and do my job first!"
"Go!"
"Young Master, please come inside!"
Entering the main hall, the two sat on the couch on the ground.
Bai Quan said casually, "Young Master, I heard that Yan Wuling was killed by Nan Xunmo?"
"Well, it was just a matter of birth not long ago. However, Yanshan was rescued by the remnants of Jiulongtang. Now I don't know where to escape!"
"Yanshan is just a young man! Without the help of others, he would never escape far! Isn't anyone looking for him?"
Xiao Chenping held his cheek with his left hand and placed his right hand on his knee and gently tapped it, "The demise of Jiulongtang was just an accidental incident, but he happened to encounter the rebellion of the remnants of the South Vietnamese. In fact, this incident was just a head-on confrontation between the Jiangzhou family forces and the gang forces!"
Bai Quan sighed, "I can only say that Yan Wuling is in trouble! Once upon a time, he was also a person, but unfortunately he was too unlucky to establish good relations with those aristocratic families and ended up like this!"
"Has Lao Wu been back recently?"
"Fifth brother, I have not come back since he was summoned by Taigong a few days ago! He sent a message back yesterday, indicating that he would come here on Sunday!"
Xiao Chenping lowered his voice and said, "Well! Lao Bai, pay more attention to whether there will be strangers nearby! In a few days, people will come. Then you can meet up to go to Xisha Pavilion in Gusu! Taigong has other arrangements!"
After Bai Quan noticed Xiao Chenping's eyes, he looked up at the roof and made a neck cut. Xiao Chenping shook his head.
The person in the room seemed to notice something strange and jumped off the roof.
This man was about to jump over the wall and leave, but he was kicked off by one person. "What? He's here, he still wants to leave?"
Xiao Chenping and Bai Quan heard the sound and walked out together. When they came to the courtyard wall, they saw Lao Wu stepping on the man in black under his feet.
The two shouted in unison, "Old Fifth?" "Fifth Brother?"
Lao Wu put his hands on his hips and joked, "Ahhhh! You two are really, how can you let this slut leave? If it spreads, will I still have the reputation of Chen Lao Wu?"
"Huh? Why didn't you move?" Lao Wu looked at the man in black under his feet and bent down to take away the man in black's face towel.
I saw the black man’s eyes wide open and black blood was overflowing from his mouth.
Lao Wu smacked his lips and said, "Do you want to be so cruel? Now he is working so hard to find out the news."
"Okay, find someone to deal with the body! Let's go back to the house!"
"Okay!"
As soon as the three of them left, the man in black who had died trembled his fingers twice, then got up and climbed over the courtyard wall.
When the man in black left, the three people hiding behind the wall were considered to have truly left.
Back in the main hall, Lao Wu sat on the couch, but when he thought that Xiao Chenping was still here, he sat upright again.
Xiao Chenping asked, "Lao Wu, why did you suddenly save me!"
The fifth brother said proudly, "Young Master, I am the star chasing king Chen Bin! A hundred miles a day is just a size distance for me!"
When Xiao Chenping saw Chen Bin's serious look, he smiled and said, "Okay, don't sit down. Look at you, you're almost chatting with the Chinese New Year tricks like this!"
Chen Bin stretched out his head and looked at himself, "I'm like playing tricks like this?"
Bai Quan laughed aside, and Chen Bin looked at Bai Quan, "Old Bai, you laugh so hard! I brought good wine from Gusu."
Bai Quan covered his stomach and smiled, "Lao Wu, hurry up and wash your face, you will know!"
Only Lao Wu's loud voice was heard, "Damn it!"
"I think he must be drunk too much from Mingyuelou and was teased by the girl there!"
Xiao Chenping's right eyebrows hopped twice, "Hey, Lao Wu is still going to a place where love and beauty is so old, I'm really worried about his body!"
"Young Master!" At this time, Xiao Yunque walked in from outside, "Are you going to the private room in the front yard or having dinner here?"
Xiao Chenping thought about it and said, "Let's be here! Everyone just happened to have a meal together!"
"Okay! I'll make arrangements now."
Xiao Yunque went to the kitchen and told the manager that he went to the inn at the inn and took a small jar of Shaoxing wine from Lao Wu's room.
As soon as she walked out of the inn, Xiao Yunque saw the guards at the inn driving away a down-and-out boy. For some reason, her head suddenly hurts, and her chest hurts.
"You are a stinky beggar, don't look at where this place is! Can you come to the place? We are the official post! If you don't get out of here, be careful that I will beat you to death!"
The down-and-out boy patted the dust on his body and was about to leave. He hadn't eaten for several days and was so hungry that he couldn't walk. He thought there would be a place to help the poor in Guanyi. Unexpectedly, what he had seen in Guanyi was fake, and he was so naive.
"Wait!" The down-and-out boy heard the girl's voice shouting from behind.
"Give it to you! Take it!" The girl was like a lotus from the water. Although she was not stunning, she made people feel incomparable. The down-and-out boy felt a move.
He took more than a dozen copper coins given to him by the girl, "Thank you!"
When the girl left with a smile, the down-and-out boy saw the jade pendant hanging around the girl's waist, his originally blank gaze became sharp.
The down-and-out boy held the copper coins tightly, then quickly left the Guanyi. He came to a secluded place, and the down-and-out boy wiped away all the dust on his face.
This down-and-out boy was Yanshan. Yanshan escaped from Gusu and ran all the way here, finally getting rid of the search of the palace soldiers.
Yanshan Changshu whispered and knelt on the ground, "Uncle Yan, I finally saw the master of Yin Yuepei! I pray that you will be in heaven and make her safe in this life! Shan'er will definitely become a man who stands tall and upright, and I will definitely let those who betray us pay the price they should pay!"
Yanshan put the copper coins in his arms, looked at the position of Guanyi, smiled, and headed far to the west.
Chapter completed!
