Early the next morning, a few people woke up, but they didn't plan to leave so soon. The old lady's medicine shop didn't have any more rooms, so they swept the lobby and spread out mats and mattresses for the night.
.Same as last night, Kisaragi-kun bought the food for them in the morning. After all, the wanted people were so arrogant that they simply fell into a trap.
I got up so early, firstly, because I really couldn't sleep because I had all these messy things in my mind; secondly, I had to clean up the medicine shop for the old lady, so I couldn't interfere with other people's business; thirdly, there weren't many people leaving the city in the morning.
, they are easy to recognize. It is best to wait until it is a little warmer at noon, when more people will come in and out of the town.
It’s a very short way to Qinglize from here. If you go a little further, you can get to Biliyuan. Lanling Town is on the edge of the county. People’s activities are relatively free, but if you leave the entire county, you have to be guarded by guards.
road. They discussed many plans on how to leave without being recognized, such as whether to go separately, how to separate, and how long to leave in between.
But no matter which one, there is a risk that one group will be detained alone. If the person in front is interrogated, will the people behind take advantage of the chaos and sneak away or will they line up obediently? If the person in front is exposed, how many people behind can still
Are you pretending to be nonchalant? If the group in front passes smoothly and the group behind is stopped, will the person who just escaped turn around or not? This is all trouble.
Especially as to why Xie Zhe was not wanted, it was really difficult to say. Xie Zhe took the slightly wrinkled paper and looked at Ling Huan and Han Shang for a long time. He suspected that it was drawn by the magistrate himself, because the recognition was like
Her gender is also unclear. Can we catch them with this thing?
"From what you said, it may be that she knows about the identities of Mr. Zhongli and Miss Ye, but she doesn't know Mr. Xie. Even if she knows, it doesn't matter, right? Think about it, Mr. Zhongli is a monster, so it is very difficult for him to be targeted.
A natural thing.”
"But what about me?" Ye Lingquan gnawed on the steamed buns bought by Ruyue Jun with a confused look on his face, "I don't know martial arts or magic, and I can't threaten her. Why should you remember me? Is it just for the sake of her?
Is it convenient for my men to find Han Sang?"
At this time, Ruan Xiang, who had been quiet until now, spoke again. She did not turn into a human form, and the voice came from Ruan Zhong beside her.
"Miss Ye's identity is also very special. She knows that you are from the Ye family. According to her greedy temperament, she will definitely try to use you as a bargaining chip to ask the Ye family for money."
"This, this person really makes me speechless! I don't know where she got the news..."
But no matter how much you complain, it's useless. It's better to think of more solutions. After thinking about it since last night, Kisaragi-kun finally came up with a plan that sounded pretty reliable.
"Let's go together." She said, "Don't think about dividing into teams or pretending who is who. The more you make up, the more mistakes you will make. If the guards become suspicious, any question will come as a surprise. Only a few
If we go together alone, we don't have to think about those ridiculous lies."
"Let's go together? But..." Xie Zhe still hesitated.
"Listen to me, I'll pretend to be out of town with you, so there are four of us. Then ask Miss Ruan Xiang to become a human, so that the body of the piano can be hidden. Can this be done?"
After that, Ruyue Jun glanced at Ruan Xiang sitting on the chair. She didn't know when she turned into a human. The little Ruan Xiang was startled for a moment, then nodded and said:
"It's possible. As long as it can exist in one form, the other can be temporarily hidden. But I can't move in human form for too long. My magic power is very limited and I haven't yet created a real entity."
"Sister-in-law, as long as you can pass that level, we promise to carry you away!" Han Chang slapped the table, "If you don't want to stay here, just come with us to Death Shadow Pavilion and don't think about your own way out.
Late."
Ruan Xiang agreed.
"Oh, then there are five people." Han Chang finished the last bite of the vegetable pancake and patted the crumbs on his hand. Lord Ruyue suddenly pointed at him and said:
"Master Zhongli——"
"how?"
"Do you know how to shapeshift?"
Everyone else suddenly looked at him, especially Ye Lingquan, whose eyes shone with anticipation. Han Chang frowned slightly and raised his eyes, his expression a little complicated.
"Yes, yes, but you won't let me change back to my original shape, right? That would be too blatant, and maybe it won't fit here."
"That's not necessary," Lord Ruyue waved her hand, "just change into a cat or a dog. It's better to be a dog, something more aggressive. Find a rope for Miss Ye to hold in her hand, and you can hide it from others."
Before Ling Huan said anything, Han Sheng refused.
"No way."
"There's really no need to discuss it? Isn't this for everyone's benefit?"
"Then I have another plan. Not only can I transform myself, but I can also transform others. I'll turn you into a cat or a dog, and then I'll turn you into a woman, which happens to be four people. What do you think?"
"?"
Ru Yuejun didn't know what to reply, but her expression was extremely confused. She might not be able to refute for a while. But there was a puff from Xie Zhe who was cleaning the table. When others looked at him, his face was clearly expressionless.
Lord Ruyue suddenly slapped his thigh: "You just reminded me, we can find another way."
"?"
This time it was Han Chang's turn to look confused.
There are more and more people on the street, and it is very lively in front of a row of stalls. Lanling Town is either big or small. Almost every resident can meet one or two familiar faces who are not famous, and there are more
Still strangers. Right now, there are five people who give the townspeople the latter feeling. They look like
Ordinary people you meet on the street wear simple and unpretentious clothes - the valuable clothes are put into a box, which is not big and not heavy, and a woman is carrying it. The woman always seems to be smiling, although she smiles
It's not that obvious, but looking at it more often will make people feel better.
She pulled a girl, who was slightly shorter than her. Although her hair was lighter than hers, she also wore the same hair, and the hairband was also tied very low, without a flower for decoration. They looked like
They are sisters. Behind them is a graceful woman. Her dress is clearly not glamorous at all, but she always has a special temperament. She has a dignified figure and looks beautiful every day.
Every step she took was gentle and generous. The back of her head was braided in thin low twists, and her hair was as dark red as ripe cherries in the sunlight. There was a girl in her arms, who looked about seven or eight years old.
She is well-behaved and quiet. She may be the woman's daughter or niece. Anyway, she shouldn't be her sister. After all, there is a big age difference between them.
Oh, there is also a man carrying luggage behind, maybe he is an entourage.
He seemed to be in a bad mood, but no one was looking at him anyway.
This is what they told the guards at the edge of the town: The sister is the woman's sister-in-law, the one in her arms is the woman's daughter, and the one behind is the long-term worker of the family. Although the woman would not have taken the initiative to introduce her, no one would have paid attention to her.
.They are not local residents, but come from nearby towns, and they want to go to another big city to find their husband before the New Year. He is doing business outside, and he can't leave during the New Year this year. They want to give him a surprise.
This kind of combination is not uncommon nowadays. Many men go to other places to work and will not come back during the holidays, but women who take care of their children at home will take the whole family to where their husbands are for the holidays. No, the Chinese New Year is almost here, like this
Families abound everywhere. The guards were not very wary. There was just such a person in front of them.
A similar team passed by, and there was also a woman with a pair of children, and an old man. These people did not encounter too much difficulty. The most stringent inspection was for combinations of one man and one woman or two men and one woman.
When they arrived, the guards didn't say much. After hearing the woman's skillful explanation, they didn't have any suspicion.
However, the eyes of one of the young guards were not honest. His eyes were always flicking back and forth on the woman holding the child. Although this was not a big problem, there were many people who turned around for her along the way, and women would also look at her more.
A few glances. Children are like this
Even at such a big age, the child still retains his charm, probably even if his fingers are not touched by Yang Chunsui. It seems that they have some wealth and do not dare to make things difficult. The woman just hugged the child who had slightly slipped down, smiled slightly, tilted her head,
The guard coughed twice and looked away.
"Go over there!"
"Thank you for your hard work, brothers."
The woman bowed slightly, the "sisters-in-law" nodded, and the five of them were about to leave. At this moment, another elderly guard shouted:
"stop!"
A few people had just taken a few steps when they suddenly froze and turned around in confusion.
"Let's take a look at that box! I heard that a piano was lost in the magistrate's house... It's not that I'm making things difficult for you, I'm just afraid that you will listen to the thieves' slander and secretly infiltrate the warehouse for them."
"Okay, of course no problem."
Lord Ruyue unloaded the box generously and opened it in front of the two guards. The old guard looked at it, and the younger one stretched out his hand and turned it over a few times. Ye Linghua frowned, a little worried that they would notice that he was there.
The clothes worn by the county magistrate. At this time, Lord Ruyue suddenly slapped the young man's restless hand and cursed:
"What are you doing! Are women's clothes so easy to find?"
Other people waiting for inspection poked their heads in the queue. Originally there were not that many people leaving the town, so they had to queue up. People had never queued up here before. Some people looked curiously. More
The people felt impatient and started urging them one after another. The old guard asked them to close the box and leave, and at the same time scolded the young man for his "cheeky hands".
Very good, perfect, perfect...
"Guys, please stay."
Damn it, it's not a good idea.
This polite voice makes people feel scared when they hear it. Because they are very familiar. Although the voices are different, the speakers are slightly neutral and have a lifeless tone. They must be those weird people wearing tattered black robes.
The magistrate's men really came. It was really unlucky that they had been walking openly and honestly for so long without arresting anyone. They had to hold it in here before they came out to attack people. Several people were a little dissatisfied and looked at the people facing them with resentment in their eyes.
The four or five men in black came. They were the most suspicious ones. Who dressed up like this in broad daylight?
"Lord Weiwei..."
The two guards saluted and took a few steps back after saying hello. For some reason, they felt that several other scattered guards also distanced themselves. It seemed that it was not just a few outsiders who found this group of people to be oppressive.
"Anything else?"
The woman stopped talking, and Lord Ruyue asked questions for her. Several guards stopped in front of them and lined up. One of the guards with his head lowered said:
"When we heard about your situation just now, we just felt that there were some discrepancies. Please take the initiative to confess, where are you going?"
Lord Kisaragi turned her head slightly and saw the guards behind her clenching their weapons unconsciously. Things were not going to go smoothly. Lord Kisaragi sighed heavily and took a step forward. Then, she took out a shiny weapon.
Silver bell.
"You're right, we are not relatives. As you can see, these are Huang Quanling, and they are important helpers in my mission. I feel that there is no need to explain wherever I go, so I just pretend to be a family.
What's the problem?"
The older guard relaxed a little, and the younger one also relaxed after seeing this. But the group of black-clothed guards seemed not to understand... No, it should be said that they seemed not to hear, and were indifferent.
"Why, do you suspect the bell is fake?"
"No, we have no intention of doing so." One of them tugged on the edge of the hood and whispered, "We also have no intention of going against Huangquan Twelve. But the others..."
