On this day, the procession of seeing off the bride arrived at a county. This county is a mountain city with rolling mountains everywhere. Although the mountain road is difficult to travel, the scenery is extremely beautiful.
Staying at the inn in the mountain city at night made Mo Jinran feel better. Because this mission was very serious, it would not be very appropriate to bring small animals to the bride-to-be team, so neither rice grains nor rice noodles came with them, otherwise they would definitely like it.
of such a place.
As soon as he sat down and drank a cup of tea, Gu Hong received a carrier pigeon, and the letter the carrier pigeon carried turned out to be for Mo Jinran. The cold handwriting on it simply stated that he would not be able to meet her until later.
And Mo Jinran should be careful about Elder Su and Leng Xingzhuo.
Mo Jinran had met these two people. Although Leng Qing didn't write down what happened, he vaguely felt that something happened at the village. And the half-mentioned mention of Leng Qing and Ru Hong's marriage made Mo Jinran's heart twitch.
Got up.
"What's wrong? You started to feel dazed after reading the letter?" Gu Hong noticed the same thing about Mo Jinran and asked with concern. He was still in a large mood before, but after a while, it turned sunny and cloudy?
"It's nothing. Leng Qing said he would meet us later. He should have rushed back before we set off. I thought it was delayed because of his brother's indifferent marriage. Now it seems that he is in trouble!"
"Oh?" Gu Hong also thought deeply, but Leng Qing's identity was too mysterious. Even Yanye couldn't find out half of it, let alone Gu Hong? They didn't know where he came from, even the household registration.
There is no desolation, so desolation is in countries other than Canfeng, Yanchen and Tianlan.
But other small countries should not have such outstanding talents. Even if they did, they would have been clearly understood by the kings of various countries. Leng Qing did not show any connotation in front of others, but this was not the first time that Gu Hong and Xu Yi saw him.
, one can naturally see his noble temperament.
"Forget it, don't think about it, we'll find out when he comes back!" In the end, Gu Hong said this, and Mo Jinran was right to think about it. It's just worrying at this time, and the most important thing now is to be more careful. If Elder Su
If you harm yourself because of Su Shui'er, don't hurt the bride-to-be team or delay the trip.
This journey is vast, powerful, and full of dangers.
Just as they were thinking, there was a loud noise outside. Mo Jinran and Gu Hong looked at each other and walked out one after another. The prefect of the county ran in with a look of fear on his face and hurriedly shouted to protect the princess.
"What's going on?" Gu Hong asked sharply, it was really a test of decency for a prefect to do this.
"Report to the prince, it's a bandit, the bandit is here!"
"Bandits? This is an inn, how come there are bandits? Do they want their lives?" Gu Hong was a little surprised. He didn't expect the bandits to be so rampant.
"I don't know, I don't know! I just heard them shouting that they are coming to take the princess back and make her the wife of the village!"
"Pfft, Mrs. Yazhai!" Mo Jinran sneered. The tastes of bandits nowadays are getting higher and higher, and they even want princesses. "Um, are they from the nearby mountains? Do they often come here to rob?"
"No, no!" the prefect quickly denied. "They are not nearby, but a group of bandits from Eryang Mountain, five hundred miles away from here. They are highly skilled in martial arts and often robbed homes and houses. The imperial court sent people to encircle and suppress them several times, but nothing happened.
We were able to eradicate them completely, but we didn’t expect them to come here to kidnap the princess. Oh my God! It’s so scary!” This prefect was a weak scholar who was praised by the emperor for his outstanding literary talent. Therefore, although he did not pass the imperial examination, he was still praised by the emperor.
I was appointed to be the prefect, but my timidity really gave me a headache.
"Prefect, don't be afraid. Our brave and capable Ninth Prince has come again. Do you think they can still succeed?" Mo Jinran comforted the timid prefect. There is nothing wrong with being timid!
"What's going on?" At this time, Xu Yi also walked out of the room.
Mo Jinran quickly pushed him into the room: "Someone comes to protect Master Xu and all the others. The Ninth Prince and I will go out and take a look!"
"What's going on? Is there danger outside?" Xu Yi grabbed Mo Jinran. He was also a civil servant, so he would be afraid, but at the critical moment, he was still concerned about Mo Jinran's safety.
"Well, the bandits are here, don't worry, I will be fine!" With that, he pushed Xu Yi back again. Xu Yi didn't want to go back, but there was nothing he could do about it. He didn't know martial arts, so this would give Mo
Jin Ran caused trouble, gritted his teeth, said you have to be careful, and went back to the room. There were several civil servants in the room, who were also the envoys for this trip, responsible for negotiating diplomatic relations between the two countries with the Chen State, and protecting them.
Protecting their safety is equally important as protecting the safety of Princess Fuya.
When Mo Jinran and Gu Hong went out, there was already a fight outside. The officers and soldiers of the state capital were confronting each other on the outside. Most of the soldiers brought by Gu Hong were surrounding the houses on the inside to prevent any fish from slipping through the net.
Although there are not many robbers, they are indeed very brave and good at fighting, and they are definitely not showy.
"How dare you disturb the princess, you will be punished!" Gu Hong scolded sternly, and then he killed a bandit with a sword.
"What the hell!" A handsome-looking man who didn't look like a bandit at all couldn't help but swear. "Brothers, come on, kill this person first!" He pointed at Gu Hong. It seemed that Gu Hong was powerful.
aroused his excitement.
Some people are like this. The more they meet an opponent, the more excited they become. However, those rookies with weak martial arts skills often cannot arouse their fighting power. Moreover, they will become extremely excited when they see blood!
Mo Jinran couldn't help but draw out the soul sword. As soon as the sword was unsheathed, the cold light hurt people's eyes. Although she had no internal power for the time being, her moves could hurt people invisible. In addition, standing side by side with Gu Hong, the two of them
With people's cooperation, Mo Jinran couldn't be hurt at all.
The invincible combination of these two people soon attracted the attention of the bandit leader. He rushed over excitedly, with a bloodthirsty light on his face. Mo Jinran couldn't help but cursed pervert in his heart, and then he was extremely concentrated.
Fight with the bandit leader.
Soon, the bandit leader discovered that Mo Jinran had no internal strength. No internal strength meant lack of physical strength. So he started a time-consuming battle! Each move seemed to be teasing Mo Jinran.
This made Gu Hong very angry. Mo Jinran was his heart and soul. He was the only one who could fight, and everyone else had to step aside. So his attack became even more fierce, and his speed was twice as fast as before.
But the bandit is not easy to deal with. He is the type who gets stronger when he is strong. After being hit by Gu Hong a few times, blood oozed out from many injuries on his body, and she became even more excited. Her speed became faster and faster,
The moves are getting harder and harder!
Mo Jinran narrowed his eyes and felt that something was wrong with the situation. Bandits like them had been robbing homes all year round and doing things that cost lives. Compared with these officers and soldiers who were somewhat considerate, they were naturally more relaxed.
Seeing that someone had taken advantage of the loophole and was about to rush into the wing near Princess Fuya. Mo Jinran couldn't help shouting: "These are bandits. If you catch the bandits, the court will definitely reward you. If the princess is attacked,
Go, everyone will die!"
When the officers and soldiers heard this, it was not the case. Even if it was not for the reward, it was for their own lives, so the officers and soldiers who had been holding back just now started to fight hard.
The bandit leader raised his eyebrows and snorted coldly. He had been pestering Gu Hong just now, and now he was attacking Mo Jinran.
Mo Jinran knew very well that he could not defeat him without internal strength, and Gu Hong was also surrounded by several bandits now, so he ran away. She was not stupid, she wanted to escape to a place far away from Princess Fuya.
Although I was not very familiar with this inn, I saw a deserted and remote courtyard nearby. I thought there must be no important people living there, so I fled towards it. I also prepared the gold bracelets on my hands.
She had to make preparations, there were many people here, and the wristband fired out more than a dozen silver needles. She was afraid of accidental injury. If she went to a deserted place, she would definitely let the bandit know how powerful she was.
The bandit leader didn't think much about it, thinking he was playing a game of cat and mouse. He had been the king here for many years, and the officers and soldiers couldn't do anything to him, so he became arrogant and didn't even pay attention to the Ninth Prince.
.
"Where to escape?" he shouted, and caught up with Mo Jinran. He happened to be at the entrance of the remote courtyard. He grabbed Mo Jinran. Mo Jinran turned around and waved his soul sword. He let go of his right hand and replaced it with his left hand.
The big knife swung at Mo Jinran's neck, and Mo Jinran hurriedly dodged, but the speed of the left-handed bandit leader was too fast, and a large section of his hair was cut off, and the jade crown fell to the ground.
Mo Jinran's long hair couldn't help but spread out.
The bandit leader couldn't help being stunned and looked at Mo Jinran stupidly. "You, you are a woman!"
Mo Jinran quickly held her long hair. She felt that she was handsome enough, but why was she still noticed? So she refused to admit it. "Nonsense, this general is a man!"
The bandit was not in a hurry to fight at this time. "Humph! She is obviously a woman, but you want to deceive me? If I don't fight with women, you can leave!"
Mo Jinran couldn't help but be startled. Does this bandit bully the weak? However, she is not that stupid. She still wants to fight with him. She can escape if she can. So she ran away, but she didn't run very far.
I felt something was wrong, so I hid in the dark and looked at the bandit leader just now. I saw that his attention was completely focused on the remote courtyard. He walked in and seemed to be rummaging around for something.
Mo Jinran couldn't help but be confused, the boss lurked behind him.
Perhaps because she moved so lightly, the bandit leader didn't even notice her.
When the bandit leader searched the desolate yard for a long time and found nothing, he shouted behind him, "Are you tired after following me for a long time?"
Mo Jinran couldn't help but feel embarrassed. It turned out that she had been discovered a long time ago. "You, how did you know?"
