At this time, Zheng Luxi finally realized that he regretted it.
However, he regretted that he took action too late. If he had gotten rid of these troublesome people earlier, he would not be in trouble now.
"Then, what should I do? Dad, you can't ignore me! If that little bitch succeeds, let alone the Gong family, we won't even be able to protect the Zheng family!"
Mr. Zheng Er naturally knew this truth. He looked gloomy and thought for a moment.
"Now, we can only kill first and then report."
"You mean?"
"If your uncle and Zheng Rongrong die unexpectedly now, everything will not be too late."
Narrowing his eyes, Mr. Zheng's tone was indifferent, not caring at all that the people being plotted were his own brother and niece.
Zheng Luxi was stunned, but after a moment, a different kind of fanaticism shone in his eyes.
"Yes! If they are all dead now, then the Zheng family will be ours! Leave this matter to me. Don't worry, Dad, I will definitely let them die on the road without anyone noticing."
Master Zheng closed his eyes and looked like a worldly master who was not stained by the mundane world.
Zheng Luxi thought about it and left quietly.
After the people left, Master Zheng opened his eyes again.
"Ah."
I don't know whether he was laughing at Zheng Luxi's stupidity, or sneering at his elder brother's fate.
No matter what happens outside, in the end, the Zheng family and the Gong family will fall into his hands.
Taking Zheng Rongrong to the family gathering was also a temporary decision made by Mr. Zheng.
Although people from Zheng Rongrong's group were happy about this, they were still a little worried.
The Zhao family, in particular, is worried about their niece's health and is afraid that she will encounter bad people on the road.
Fortunately, Lin Mengya had repeatedly promised that she and Long Tianyu would go with her, which made the Zhao family feel a little more relieved.
Before setting off, Lin Mengya and Long Tianyu also took the time to deal with everything that needed to be dealt with in Shangyang City.
This family meeting was held in Mocheng, which is close to the edge of the Zheng family's fiefdom.
She had a hunch that this family gathering would be able to determine the outcome.
She and Long Tianyu will go directly to the Bai family after the family meeting.
On the day before they left, they heard that Zheng Luxi had not returned home all night.
Now Mr. Zheng is even more disappointed with Zheng Luxi. After all, Xu Hu and Xu Liang's affairs are traceable.
Just because he didn't pay attention before, it doesn't mean that Zheng Luxi can really hide it.
Otherwise, Mr. Zheng would not have taken his daughter to attend the Family Meeting.
Lin Mengya and Long Tianyu were sitting in the carriage at the back.
They were surrounded by servants of the Zheng family. To be on the safe side, the two of them did not talk too much. The convoy traveled for a day, and when they arrived at the inn where they stayed for the night, everyone was a little tired.
Lin Mengya and Long Tianyu were assigned to an upper room. When she entered the door, she checked inside and out, and there was nothing abnormal.
Looking at her cautious appearance, Long Tianyu was in a good mood.
After closing the door, she hugged the person on her lap. Lin Mengya also pressed herself against his chest, asking the person to rub her sore waist.
"Didn't you say that Zheng Luxi would definitely take action on the road?"
Lin Mengya whispered against Long Tianyu's ear.
"Well, before leaving, the person responsible for monitoring him discovered that he sent someone to contact a group of bandits. It seems that he wanted to make it look like he was intercepted by bandits to cover up his true purpose."
"However, this inn has obviously been manipulated. If bandits were used to rob it, I'm afraid it would be unnecessary."
From the moment she walked in, she discovered potential problems with the inn.
Her nose was so sharp that she had already smelled the smell of gunpowder hidden in the air.
If Zheng Luxi wanted to kill people and silence them, then the gunpowder should have been ambushed in the stronghold of the bandits.
After all, whether in the Gong family or the Zheng family, things like gunpowder are strictly controlled.
The inn is in a town. Once it is detonated, the sound will be earth-shattering. Who will not hear it?
If you want to destroy the corpse and eliminate all traces, you can burn the inn to nothing.
Long Tianyu looked as usual, as if he wasn't worried at all that they might be blown up at any time.
"Just wait and see what happens."
Lin Mengya raised her eyebrows, nodded and said, "That's fine."
The two talked for a while, and then Zheng Rongrong sent someone to invite them.
After all, Mr. Zheng was worried about his daughter's health. He specifically inquired about the situation and asked the miracle doctor to take a pulse before returning to the house with peace of mind.
After the group finished eating and drinking, they all returned to their respective rooms to rest.
Lin Mengya and Long Tianyu were lying together in their clothes. Although both of them had their eyes closed, the movement outside never escaped their ears.
There was a slight sound of horse hoofbeats, and almost at the same time, the two people immediately turned over and sat up.
Long Tianyu took advantage of the situation, hugging him like an ape, and climbed up the beam.
Outside the inn, more than twenty fast horses with their hooves wrapped in cloth appeared.
They sneaked into the town quietly, and their goal was just a big fat sheep in this inn.
The bandit leader observed the inn, waved his hand, and someone immediately got off his horse and knocked on the back door first.
After a while, the door was opened wide, revealing a waiter who was hiding in the inn.
Thinking about it, this was not the first time that the boy had done something like this. After nodding towards his eldest brother, he signaled that they were ready inside.
More than twenty people immediately dismounted, leaving a few lookouts behind and rushed into the inn.
This is not the first time that these people have done something like this.
Since being secretly recruited by Zheng Luxi, the main reason is which big family the Zheng family values and if he fails to force them, he will let them do these murderous and exaggerated transactions in secret.
Over time, this group of people also developed their appetite and courage.
He became a villain who was talked about by everyone in the Zheng family fiefdom.
This time, they regarded it as the previous transactions and did not feel there was any danger.
When he thought about the money and women he wanted to get, the bandit leader suddenly showed a proud smile.
"Be smart with your hands and feet. We have to finish this deal before dawn!"
"yes!"
According to the old rules, before they "do anything", they would send people to sneak in first, and on the day of the operation, they would put drugs into people's meals.
They had figured out the situation of this inn before.
Therefore, they acted quickly. Some people went to the backyard to lead the carriage, and some went upstairs to kill people.
The bandit leader remembered clearly that the people named to be killed this time lived in the two easternmost rooms.
He kicked open the door loudly, and chopped into the quilt with the long knife in his hand.
No matter who he is, keep him now and separate his body.
The expected obstacle did not come, and the hand did not feel like a human being at all, but rather like - straw!
He immediately opened the quilt and saw someone inside, it was just a scarecrow.
His career of licking blood for many years has given him a strong sense of crisis like a wild beast.
He immediately raised his knife and swiped back, but before he could turn around, a long sword penetrated his chest.
Similar scenes were staged in every room.
In the silent night, this gang of bandits, who were running rampant and domineering, turned into confused ghosts.
Lin Mengya and the two of them were on the rafters, watching the secret guards finish all this, and then asked someone to make some noise.
On the street, a figure slipped past.
The man first lay down behind the alley and looked at the horses.
Then he took a few steps closer, pressed against the door, and looked at the situation in the yard.
Without anyone noticing, he quickly ran to the cellar.
Just when he took out the fire folder and wanted to light the hidden fuse, Suddenly, two figures appeared in front of him quietly.
"ah--"
The screams stopped suddenly because the person was knocked unconscious.
Lin Mengya immediately pulled the fire stick in his hand, eliminating the possibility of being blown away.
"Take people away."
Long Tianyu gave a low order, and a secret guard immediately came over and took over the man.
Just when the two of them breathed a sigh of relief and were about to leave, Long Tianyu suddenly changed his expression.
Lin Mengya didn't know why, but she felt a big hand hugging her tightly around her waist. She was dragged away by Long Tianyu as soon as she was light.
Those secret guards are all martial arts experts, and Long Tianyu is the leader among them.
They shuttled silently across the room, like night owls, untouchable.
Hiding her face in Yu's chest, Lin Mengya felt that his body had been tense since just now.
That was his reaction only when he encountered danger.
Even though she was curious, Lin Mengya didn't ask any questions.
She just obediently let him take her away and ran out of the town before his speed slowed down.
At this time, a special smell spread faintly from a distance.
Lin Mengya recognized this smell. When Feiye City was besieged and she tamed the little black cat, she smelled a similar smell from it.
It's just that here, it's a little weirder.
The secret guards protected them and hid in a forest outside the town.
A group of people from the Zheng family were waiting for them outside the woods.
However, they did not go out immediately.
"It's okay, you go first."
Long Tianyu calmly ordered his men, and within a moment, the secret guards disappeared.
Lin Mengya raised her head curiously and looked at him without blinking.
"He's from Fairy City."
It was rare for him to explain, and Lin Mengya just nodded.
"I know."
"You know? How do you know, but have you fought with them? Do they recognize your identity?"
He was a little anxious, and even his body became tense again.
Lin Mengya immediately reached out her hand and gently smoothed his hair.
"That's when I was besieged. Don't worry, they don't know who I am. It's just that the smell is somewhat similar to that of Xiao Hei."
After hearing what she said, Long Tianyu felt relieved a little.
Xiao Hei is the herding Gu beast. That little thing is very spiritual and plays very well with the two children now.
Only with its protection could Lin Mengya rest assured about the safety of her two children.
