The full moon was in the sky, and Uncle Xu stared at the night without saying a word for a long time. After a long time, he called Zhong Lei and Gu Shengchao to his side and said, "This matter is important. The escorts must continue to be sent. We can only work separately."

"How to do it?" Zhong Lei asked eagerly.

Xu Bojian said resolutely: "Without further delay, you take three fast horses and rush back to the Wuyou Escort Bureau without eating or drinking all the way. Explain the matter to your old boss and let them contact the officials to strive for a crossing.

Get through it.”

"Uncle Xu, where are you?" Zhong Lei was worried.

Uncle Xu smiled bitterly: "The escorts have to be sent. Even with my old bones, we can't tarnish the reputation of our escort agency."

Zhong Lei said helplessly: "Our hearts are not united, and I'm afraid there are some internal collaborators. Uncle Xu should be careful." After he settled in, he chose three fast horses and returned quickly.

Uncle Xu led Gu Shengchao to find the masked woman and said, "You two should also leave quietly while it's dark. I have a map here. Just follow the route above. Remember not to cause trouble along the way."

, as long as we arrive safely." He gave Gu Shengchao another small bag of broken silver and warned: "Don't wrong this girl on the way, you must protect her."

Gu Shengchao was very moved. He also learned about the importance of this woman at the Changqing County Government Office. Uncle Xu clearly trusted him by entrusting him with such a heavy responsibility. He solemnly said: "Don't worry, Uncle Xu, I will definitely

Protect this girl and deliver her safely to fulfill your mission."

Uncle Xu personally led two horses, and Gu Shengchao and the woman got on their horses. He gave Gu Shengchao half a talisman and said: "When we get over there, if the two talismans match up, it's a deal. You take the banknote."

Come back and deliver the errand, I guarantee you will get fifty taels of silver from this trip."

"Take care." Gu Shengchao greeted Uncle Xu with his hands, and he and the masked woman rode into the endless night. He knew that the burden on Uncle Xu was not light, and the masters sent by Longhu Village and the Ministry of Punishment would definitely come again

Keeping an eye on this team, not to mention not knowing who their insider is, is the biggest hidden danger.

The two of them drove non-stop all night, and it was almost dawn. Gu Shengchao saw that the masked woman could no longer hold on, so he dismounted his horse to rest and let the horse graze in the grass on the side of the road. The woman sat under a tree and leaned against the branches to take a nap.

As the sun rose, Gu Shengchao woke her up and the two of them continued on their way. Not long after, five tall horses rushed over from diagonally and blocked the two of them.

The leader of the group held up his hands and said, "Young lady is frightened, please follow us back."

Ancient Sage Chao stepped forward and said, "You're welcome, what if we don't come back?"

The man raised his eyebrows, showed his sword in his hand, and said disdainfully: "Anyone who dares to stop me will die!"

The masked woman was a little timid, and the mount seemed to understand her thoughts and kept retreating. Gu Shengchao rushed over on horseback. The five people, taking advantage of the large number of people, also showed their weapons and rushed towards Gu Shengchao. They were about to cross.

At this moment, Gu Shengchao's internal power burst out, and he launched the "Five Soul Array". Five flying swords shot out from the Dantian, passed through the chests of the five people, hung in the air with a "clanging" sound, and then disappeared into Gu Shengchao.

Dantian.

The man in the lead had already cut half of it with a single sword, and a big hole had been pierced through his chest. His hand lost its strength and the single sword fell down. The five horses carried their respective masters and ran towards the distance.

"Thump, thump..."

From time to time someone stumbled and fell off his horse.

The masked woman looked frightened, but did not speak. She just followed up slowly. The two rode horses and rode forward in silence without anyone speaking. Gu Shengchao checked the map, confirmed the direction, and followed the route on the map.

It was almost noon and I passed by a small town with only one inn. With no choice, Gu Shengchao booked a guest room with a rear window near the corridor and asked the waiter to deliver food to the room.

Gu Shengchao closed the door and warned: "Now that we are both fallen people in the world, you don't have to be polite. I didn't sleep all night last night. After eating, I went to bed quickly. I have to continue on my way at dawn."

The woman raised her head and wanted to ask a question, but she regained her composure in an instant. She lifted up her veil and only exposed her mouth to eat. Her red lips were so beautiful, and her skin was as white as snow. Gu Shengchao was afraid that the woman would misunderstand him, so he took one look and buried his head in eating. He was a lonely wanderer in his childhood.

He is used to eating voraciously, and he is already full as soon as the woman starts.

"I'm going to sleep first." Gu Shengchao locked the door bolt and lay down on the ground behind the door.

The woman knew his intention immediately, and fearing that someone would sneak in and attack her, she got up and took the mattress from the bed and handed it to Gu Shengchao: "Wrap it up, be careful of catching cold." The woman hesitated for a moment and whispered: "Actually, you can sleep on it

I won't mind if it's on the bed."

The woman spoke in a soft voice, with a hint of girlish shyness in her tactful tone. She was not as confident as Ding Ying, for fear that others would not hear her.

"No need, this is good." Gu Shengchao took the mattress and wrapped it around him and fell into a deep sleep. Because of his special experience, he was more alert when sleeping. He vaguely heard the woman going to bed. He tossed and turned, unable to sleep, and even sighed several times in succession.

Voice.

Gu Shengchao didn't know how long he had slept when he suddenly heard footsteps outside. He looked carefully and saw that there were four people. Through the crack in the door, it was already dark outside and there was light shining through. He got up and came to the bedside. The woman undressed

While lying down, he gently pushed the woman to wake up and whispered: "Don't make any sound, just follow me."

The woman knew that this was an emergency, so she got out of bed and simply arranged her hair. Gu Shengchao opened the back window and saw no one around, so he waved to the woman to come first. The woman came to the window and held it with one hand, then jumped out lightly.

She had obviously practiced kung fu. Gu Shengchao had already roughly judged it through her aura, so he was not surprised. The two went to the stables to lead the horses out, and heard someone in the inn exclaiming: "No, they ran away.

Chase quickly."

The two got on their horses and galloped away. The moon was bright and the stars were sparse, the road seemed to be covered with a layer of white frost, and the horses could see clearly as they galloped all the way.

About the end of the ugly period, the horse under the woman's crotch suddenly slowed down. Gu Shengchao was puzzled, but he saw the woman curled up and twitching on the horse, and her breath began to become disordered. Gu Shengchao had felt this strange aura before.

There was once a woman sitting in a carriage. He quickly grabbed the reins of the horse and wanted the horse to stop, but saw the woman swaying a few times and about to fall off the horse.

Gu Shengchao didn't have time to think too much, he jumped up from his horse, hugged the woman tightly and stood aside. Horses are the most humane, they will stop on their own and return to find their master if their master is not on their backs.

The woman's body kept trembling, as if she was afraid of the cold. Gu Shengchao sat aside and held the woman in his arms. He took off his outer robe and covered her body. After a cup of tea, the woman gradually regained her composure.

, even though the veil covered her entire face, Gu Shengchao could still feel that she was looking at him. Sure enough, the woman said "thank you" and stood up, returned the robe to him, then got on the horse, like

He said as if nothing had happened: "It's okay, let's go!"

Gu Shengchao dressed neatly and got on his horse, and the two of them rode slowly together. Gu Shengchao became more and more curious about the woman. Most people couldn't bear their temper and would have asked questions long ago, but this woman never explained or defended herself, and even

He never asks why, and keeps silent about what should be said and what should not be said, and what should not be asked, leaving people unable to figure it out.

It was daybreak, and there was a fork in the road ahead. Gu Shengchao took out the map and looked at it. He should choose the road on the right and continue walking. He would reach a town at about sunset. However, the other party came suddenly yesterday, and he had to be on guard. He asked: "Excuse me

Girl, besides the escort agency, does anyone else know where you are going to go?"

"Someone knows." The woman said without hesitation.

"Is it much?" Gu Shengchao asked.

"Not many, at first I couldn't surpass five people." The woman looked at the morning glow and said with a wry smile: "Maybe it has increased now!"

Gu Shengchao hesitated and said, "If that's the case, let's take the left path. Maybe we can get rid of them."

The woman had no objection, turned the horse's head and drove to the left first. The woman's ability and decisiveness in doing things made Gu Shengchao admire him.

The road on the left was overgrown with weeds and obviously inaccessible. The two of them walked for nearly a whole day without seeing any human beings, let alone an inn that could provide meals and rest. The two were hungry and drank some water when they passed a stream.

Fortunately, it was almost sunset, and there was smoke from the kitchen in the distance, so the two men hurried over.

The village is not big, with only a dozen households. The sound of horse hooves attracted the attention of the children, who ran out to watch. Especially the masked woman's dress surprised them even more.

"Who among you can provide accommodation and food? We have money and we won't eat your money in vain." Gu Shengchao asked.

A child stood up and asked, "Are you really going to give us money?"

"Here, we can discuss where your adults are." Gu Shengchao said with a smile.

"Follow me." The child was very courageous and led the two of them to their home.

The yard of this family is not small, but the house is low, and you can touch the thatch on the roof without raising your toes. However, in this remote village, such a house is considered relatively good. The owners are a couple in their thirties.

, the four children in the family were a little acquainted with outsiders. Only the third child, the extroverted one who brought them here, surrounded them curiously and kept asking questions.

Gu Shengchao and the male host agreed on the price, took out his wallet and took out a piece of silver and gave it to the other party. The male host's eyes shone as he held the silver and happily prepared it according to Gu Shengchao's request. After a while, they

They found a room, cleaned it, and allowed Gu Shengchao and the two to live in it. Food was brought in, and hot water was also prepared.

"You go out, no one is allowed to come in without my instructions." Gu Shengchao ordered.

The male host nodded and bowed and retreated. Gu Shengchao stood up and said, "I'll go to the door first and guard it while you wash up. I don't know when the next time will be."

"Thank you, sir." Everyone loves beauty, especially this woman. From her words, it is obvious that she has a good impression of Gu Shengchao.

Gu Shengchao sat at the door and waited until the sunset faded and night fell. The room was lit with candles and the door was opened. The woman said politely: "Sir, please come in. The food is almost cold."

"It doesn't matter, I promised Uncle Xu that I will take good care of you on the way, and this is what I should do." What Gu Shengchao said was true. He was a little worried about Uncle Xu and the others, but they were out of reach, and worrying about them was of no use.

The two of them finished their meal and prepared to sleep. This time, Gu Sheng was so unexpected that he put the candlestick next to the bed and lay down with the masked woman. Although the masked woman was surprised, she accepted it calmly, and the two of them slept together in their clothes.
