Chapter 20 This Inexplicable Familiarity(1/2)
Chapter 20 This inexplicable feeling of familiarity
"I don't need it, you can keep it for yourself."
Meng Jing said angrily, what does he want Jin Xiangyu for? Did he come all the way to this desert to pick up girls? Although Jin Xiangyu looks good, there are a lot of beautiful girls in the capital, and they are all gentle and considerate.
Moreover, he is here to do a mission, and he is here to gain cultivation points to become stronger.
Xu Dali sneered, touched his head, and then asked the soldiers who followed him to go out first, and then asked Meng Jing: "What does Master Meng need from me? Don't worry, for the sake of Ming Dynasty and Your Majesty, I, Xu Dali, will definitely do it."
Go all out without any sloppiness or hesitation.”
Meng Jing then stated the ultimate purpose of his coming here. Xu Dali could accept the seizure of the military talisman and was even very excited. As a garrison general, he knew the importance of the military talisman. As long as he could take back the military talisman and hand it over to the emperor, it is conceivable...
…The official road will definitely be smooth in the future.
But as soon as Meng Jing said that he wanted him to lead his soldiers to encircle and suppress the Dongchang army, Xu Dali's face instantly turned pale, and he said in an anxious tone: "Mr. Meng, don't be joking, he wants me to lead his troops to encircle and suppress Cao Shaoqin and the black-clad archery team."
? Doesn’t this mean that you have offended Governor Cao before you even entered the capital? Besides, aren’t you Jinyiwei and Dongchang together?”
"Everything in this world is like gambling. The greater the risk, the greater the benefit. Besides, everyone is dead. If you don't tell me and I won't tell you, how will Dongchang know that you and I did it?" Meng Jing laughed.
"Besides, Mr. Liu specifically asked me to bury Cao Shaoqin in the desert forever if I have the chance. The desert is ruthless and the wind and sand are eternal. As time goes by, these secrets will naturally be buried under the gravel forever, and no one will care about it for a hundred years.
"Meng Jing emphasized Mr. Liu's tone.
Xu Dali was uncertain, and finally he slapped his thigh hard and said harshly: "Grandma, I couldn't bear to let the child catch the wolf. In order to live a life of wealth and drunkenness in the capital, I did it! If I was really betrayed by Governor Cao
If we find out, the worst we can do is wander around the world with Mr. Meng."
"You bastard, you look like you're in need of a beating. You can see that you got some benefit. I'm so angry."
At this moment, Xu Dali felt very proud. Thinking of being able to work in the capital in the future, a bright smile appeared on his face involuntarily.
Qiu Moyan and Tie Zhu didn't want to talk to He Hu, but they squinted out of curiosity and glanced at Meng Jing who was eating vegetarian dishes.
The wind in Longmen blows all the time, and the wind and sand in Longmen cause the inn to sway, making many new guests of the inn anxious and worried about their future itinerary.
"Shopkeeper, Qianhu is out."
"..." Qiu Moyan took a deep breath to calm down.
"Maybe he's a wanted criminal!" Tie Zhu stopped scratching, because if he scratched again, it would be difficult for him to restrain his lust.
For two days, Meng Jing couldn't help but wonder if Qiu Moyan and others would come to Longmen Inn. You must know that the horses betrayed him and left him in the middle of his horse racing, just to wait for the opportunity to come to Longmen Inn earlier.
Meng Jing did not pay attention to the matter between Jin Xiangyu and Xu Dali.
"..." Qiu Mo was speechless. She unconsciously looked away from the people around her. Except for the black dealer who showed his greed and desire on his face, no one else was looking at the three of them.
One day later, Longmen Inn ushered in nice weather.
"What do you think?" He Hu narrowed his eyes and said.
Most of the people who dared to take the Longmen road and stayed at the Longmen Inn were not clean. Not long after, a group of black dealers who had just entered the customs and were preparing to resell goods moved in. When they saw the gold and jade, they immediately handed over the money to the other party, and then
He began to look maliciously at the lonely figure in the corner, Meng Jing.
"That's not the most important thing!" He Hu glanced at everyone in the inn and said as if he was trying to find out the truth: "Everyone in the inn except him, including us, is not full of luggage and never leaves half a step away.
, and what about him? In addition to the cloth bag on his chest, what else does he have? He is different from the rest of us. He is alone and does not care about his luggage, and he appears alone in the desert. It is really suspicious! This kind of person must have a lot of money, and he can buy it at any time.
Any supplies needed.”
Although the climate is cold, the sunlight is soft.
"Sir, please come in quickly. I thought it was a gust of wind. I'm sorry!" The waiter moved quickly to welcome Qiu Moyan and others.
"Why are you angry? It's dark outside, so you can understand if you don't pay attention!" Qiu Moyan said.
Tie Zhu snorted coldly.
If Meng Jing knew about it, he would definitely complain, brother, how could you guess so accurately.
But in order to prevent people from dying in the inn, Jin Xiangyu and Linglong immediately put an end to the idea of the gangster.
Watching Xu Dali and his hundreds of soldiers leave, Jin Xiangyu cursed: "Bah! Longmen is really a ruthless and unjust place. How many times have I accompanied this bastard? He actually switched sides in battle for a few thousand taels of silver!"
"Why is it raining? It's extremely unlucky to encounter the wind and sand in Longmen today!" He Hu said loudly.
…
"Look at that man!" He Hu glanced at the corner.
"Who are you doubting again? You are too suspicious, you don't have doubts everywhere you go, right?" Tie Zhu said angrily.
The waiter on the side said: "Boss lady, you actually need to put yourself in someone else's shoes. Thousands of taels! If it were me, you would too!"
Because the inn was stuffy and in a depressed mood, Jin Xiangyu kept shaking her cattail leaf fan with heat and irritability all over her body. When she heard the waiter's words, she immediately glanced at Xu Dali, who looked happy and walked out of the guest room, and Jin Xiangyu murmured.
Wandering around the world? I, Meng Jing, will never go out wandering with a rough guy like you.
"Does Master Meng know how many black-clad archery teams Cao Shaoqin dispatched?" Xu Dali asked.
"Are the guest officers going out of customs or staying in the hotel?" Jin Xiangyu's eyes lit up when he saw Qiu Moyan's pale face, and his words were charming.
"I'm not a heartless person like you!" Jin Xiangyu smashed the cattail leaf fan in her hand at the guy who was talking, and went back to the room depressed.
"Stay in the hotel, come and have a room in three rooms!" Tie Zhu said directly: "Then get some food, I'm hungry!"
At this moment, the situation outside the Longmen Inn was changing. Soon, heavy rain began to fall. A strong wind blew up in the desert, and the wind and sand covered the sky. The door of the inn was suddenly blown open by the strong wind, and the hurried waiters rushed to close the door.
Jin Xiangyu's sweet laughter stopped suddenly. What did she hear? Thousands of taels? This bastard took that person's thousands of taels of silver for free today?
Jin Xiangyu felt her heart bleed, as if all the money belonged to her.
"What the landlady said just now was slanderous." Qiu Moyan drank tea to moisten his throat and said, "We have to be careful here. This inn is probably not simple. The landlady just now moved with dexterity and must have martial arts skills!"
Seeing this, Xu Dali's smile remained unchanged, he squeezed Jin Xiangyu's buttocks hard, and said casually: "If you could make thousands of taels of silver every day, you would smile from ear to ear every day."
"Yes, I understand." Xu Dali calculated in his mind how many border defenders he would need to use if he wanted to completely annihilate the black arrow team.
Tie Zhu was speechless. He didn't bother to refute, and he couldn't refute. At this moment, he just hoped that the food would come quickly. He was really hungry.
"Don't you welcome passers-by?" Qiu Moyan, who was disguised as a man, said calmly.
"He Hu, what are you doing? Stop looking around." Qiu Moyan frowned and said in a dissatisfied tone.
Meng Jing was silent and added in her heart, if Eunuch Cao really wants to make trouble, I will push you out.
Immediately after Meng Jing gave some instructions, he asked Xu Dali to return to Longmen to prepare troops and horses, and when the time came, he would lead the defenders to encircle them.
"Hurry up!" Tie Zhu urged. He wanted to continue venting his complaints, but he saw He Hu secretly observing the people in the inn with a sly look on his face, so he sighed, knowing that his brother was about to start again.
Qiu Moyan's arrival made Meng Jing secretly happy, little assassin, you are finally here.
Everyone was watching Qiu Moyan and his party.
"Yes, yes, everything you said is right." Tie Zhu nodded and said, "As long as you don't cause trouble, everything will be fine!"
"Yeah!" Qiu Moyan was silent.
"Hmm... What you said seems familiar. Maybe he is an old friend I met before." Qiu Moyan said perfunctorily to He Hu.
Being alone is the best target for killing and intercepting goods. This is not uncommon for these traffickers who have been wandering around the borders all year round.
Meng Jing's martial arts skills are so strong that two hundred black-clad archers want to kill him. However, if he wants to kill two hundred black-clad archers on horseback in the desert, it is as difficult as climbing to the sky. If you are not careful, fish will slip through the net.
Xu Dali drank a bowl of wine and laughed heartily, then led all the soldiers to ride their horses and leave the Longmen Inn. Xu Dali's happy smile was like a child's, and he even forgot the original purpose of coming here.
"You guys take a peek. He is smiling alone at this moment. It is obvious that he is thinking of something happy... as if he knows our whereabouts..." He Hu spoke while fearing to pat the basket containing Yang Yuxuan's orphan next to him to alert the children inside.
We need to learn from his ability to observe things in minute detail.
"Nvxia Qiu, you should be alert and observe your surroundings when you go out, and don't relax no matter what. You come from a martial arts family, haven't your parents ever taught you?" He Hu said seriously.
"I don't feel it. Just stop being suspicious. Brother, please, how many people have you provoked along the way because of your inexplicable suspicion?" Tie Zhu withdrew his gaze and begged.
"Brother, how could you be so careless when traveling around the world?" He Hu said, "This person doesn't eat meat and only eats vegetarian dishes. This is also suspicious."
"It's doubtful that you dare to be in the desert alone!" He Hu said.
Groups of guests entered one after another, and the crowd in the inn gradually grew.
"You can see that he eats in an orderly manner. He is completely unlike us who are in a hurry and feast because there is nothing in our stomachs. This always shows that he is different from us..." He Hu glanced at Meng Jing with a serious look.
said.
Meng Jing is not omniscient and omnipotent, and he has no idea that Jin Xiangyu can eliminate disasters for him. Even if he knows, he will not worry about it. At this moment, Meng Jing is observing every wave of people entering the Longmen Inn.
Just when Meng Jing was suspicious, it was also when Jin Xiangyu complained and was dissatisfied with Meng Jing.
"That guy upstairs is my big client. You have to treat him well, or I'll ask Longmen Inn to change its owner!" Xu Dali suddenly became murderous, and Jin Xiangyu couldn't help but be shocked.
"Hey, why is Mr. Qianhu smiling so happily? What's the good news?" Jin Xiangyu changed his expression, walked lightly, and then leaned against Qianhu's tall body.
"Okay!" Jin Xiangyu reluctantly withdrew his gaze from Qiu Moyan's face and said softly: "No wind and rain in all directions can compare to the rain in our Longmen!"
Just as the door closed, a hand like porcelain jade pressed on the wooden door, and a voice came from outside the inn.
Tie Zhu's mind flashed through the bodies of brothel girls one after another, and he couldn't help but become obsessed with rowing. Then Tie Zhu gave himself a big mouth in his mind.
"What about you? Qiu Nvxia!" He Hu looked at Qiu Moyan expectantly, making Qiu Moyan a little embarrassed.
The strong Tie Zhu was slightly angry. His body was covered with rain and wind and sand, and he felt uncomfortable. In the past few days, he had been trekking through mountains and ridges on the loess highlands. He was already in a bad mood. When he arrived at Longmen and was about to leave the customs, there was a sudden strong wind.
To be continued...
