"Fifth Senior Brother, I'm afraid they were attacked last night." Li Xueyan frowned and analyzed to herself.
Chen Shaoxuan squatted down and carefully examined the corpses on the ground. He touched their pockets one by one, but did not find any clues.
"This Zhao Yuan is really not a human! He destroyed what he couldn't get, and actually sent people to hunt him down!" Li Xueyan had an intuition that Zhao Yuan did this, so she said angrily.
"It's not him!" After looking carefully for a while, Chen Shaoxuan suddenly said in a deep voice: "Although he is not willing to let Little Baoer leave, he will never kill him. Besides, he was so anxious to find Lijiacun last night, and then he
Chase towards Jinzhou. There is no way it could be him."
"If that's not him, who else?" Li Xueyan asked with a frown.
"I don't know, I'm afraid there is someone else!" Chen Shaoxuan's heart suddenly shuddered and became even heavier.
The unknown enemy is the most terrifying existence.
Chen Shaoxuan squatted down and carefully inspected the traces of the fight. Li Xueyan also started to wander around. After a while, her clear voice came from the front: "Fifth Senior Brother, come here quickly! There are traces here too!"
Chen Shaoxuan stepped forward quickly and saw that the grass there was crushed and several short trees were broken.
Following the overwhelmed grass, the two continued to walk deeper, but the traces of the fight became increasingly faint. Finally, Chen Shaoxuan's footsteps stopped at the top of a hillside.
I saw that the mountain road there was covered with messy footprints, and there were traces of sword scratches on the surrounding tree trunks.
Chen Shaoxuan's eyes suddenly tightened, and his heart trembled slightly. Such obvious traces showed that there were not just one or two people at all. And when they found out, except for the corpses of the previous men in black, where were Leng Changxi and the other three?
Still at a loss.
Sometimes there is good news when there is no news. Although they could not be found, Chen Shaoxuan breathed a sigh of relief in his heart and luckily thought that maybe they had left.
"Fifth Senior Brother, look here!" Li Xueyan walked to the edge of the hillside and suddenly called out to Chen Shaoxuan.
Chen Shaoxuan stepped forward quickly, glanced at the traces on the edge of the hillside, and his eyes suddenly shrank.
I saw that the trace was a mark made by a slip on the sole of the foot. Going down the steep hillside, a series of traces of being rolled over were left.
"Down here is..." Chen Shaoxuan narrowed his eyes slightly, with some calculation in his heart.
"It's Lijiacun!" Li Xueyan followed his words and it was not difficult to think that the bottom of the hillside was probably Lijiacun.
"Let's go back!" Chen Shaoxuan quickly stood up and ran back the way he came.
Li Xueyan followed closely behind.
After a while, the two of them returned to Lijia Village.
"Sir, why are you back again?" Ah Cai, who was walking towards the village entrance, saw Chen Shaoxuan leaving and returning, and said hello in surprise.
"Brother Ah Cai, what a coincidence, I was just about to find you!" When Chen Shaoxuan saw it was Ah Cai, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief. To be honest, he was really afraid that he would meet the stubborn old villager.
long.
"Young master, you are so polite! If you have any instructions, just tell me. If I, Cai, can help, I will do it without any hesitation!" Ah Cai is obviously a warm-hearted person, and his kind-hearted temperament is completely inherited from Aunt Zhang.
"I want to stay in your village for one more day. Is it convenient for you?" Chen Shaoxuan asked carefully. He knew that people in these mountain villages were afraid of trouble and had always discriminated against and excluded outsiders, so he didn't have high expectations.
I secretly thought that if that didn't work, I would have no choice but to sneak in.
Who would have thought that after hearing this, Ah Cai immediately opened his mouth and showed a sincere smile: "Oh, sir, what's the big deal for me! Okay, no problem, you can stay as long as you want! It's just a remote place like ours.
, I’m afraid I won’t be able to entertain you as well as the city!”
Chen Shaoxuan was infected by his hearty smile and couldn't help but reveal a faint sincere smile. This countryman was always so simple, so simple that it made people feel cute.
Thinking about it, Chen Shaoxuan took out another ingot of silver from his arms, handed it to Ah Cai and said, "If you bother me for one more day, I'm afraid the old village chief will be unhappy. Please help me deliver this silver to the old village chief, please ask him."
Take care of yourself!"
Chen Shaoxuan knew that if he said it was to be given to Ah Cai, he would definitely refuse to accept it even if he died. Otherwise, if he said it was to be given to the old village chief, he would have no room to refuse.
Sure enough, Ah Cai had no choice but to accept the money after being unable to shirk the offer.
"Then I will thank you for my father!"
"Brother Ah Cai, where are you planning to go?" Li Xueyan asked out of curiosity when she saw Ah Cai carrying a backpack on his back and seemed to be leaving the village.
"Oh, I'm going to town to buy some things. Is there anything you need to bring?" Ah Cai scratched his head and replied straightforwardly.
"No need, thank you!" Li Xueyan smiled at him and said politely.
"Since Brother Ah Cai is going to town, we won't bother you." Chen Shaoxuan handed over his hands, pulled Li Xueyan and walked towards the village.
After walking only two steps, I heard Ah Cai's hesitant voice coming from behind: "Um, girl..."
"Brother Acai, are you calling me?" Li Xueyan turned around after hearing the sound.
"Well, yes..." Ah Cai walked up to Li Xueyan with a blushing face, scratched the back of his head, and asked a little embarrassedly: "Um, girl, I have a question to ask you."
"Okay, Brother Ah Cai, you ask!" Li Xueyan has always been careless, but seeing Ah Cai's honesty and honesty, she also liked it, so she agreed with a smile.
"Well, what do you girls generally like?" After Ah Cai asked, even the base of his ears turned red.
Li Xueyan laughed out loud when she heard him ask this: "Brother Acai, aren't you going to buy something for the girl you love?"
"That, that, no, it was last night...a girl...Miss Leng..." Ah Cai couldn't even speak clearly when Li Xueyan smiled like this, and his face became even redder with anxiety.
As the saying goes, the speaker is unintentional, but the listener is intentional. Ah Cai's "cold girl" hit Chen Shaoxuan's heart. His heart moved slightly, and a flash of interest flashed in his eyes. He suppressed the excitement in his heart and seemed as if nothing had happened.
He asked: "The Leng girl that Brother Ah Cai just mentioned is..."
"That is a girl I rescued at the foot of the mountain last night. She accidentally rolled down the hillside..."
Before Ah Cai finished speaking, Chen Shaoxuan grabbed him by the collar and asked excitedly: "Where is she now?"
If it was just speculation just now, it is now confirmed. Chen Shaoxuan's heart was filled with heat. He couldn't wait for a moment and was eager to see Leng Changxi.
"Well, young master, let go first..." Ah Cai was frightened by his appearance. Why did this seemingly gentle young master suddenly become so excited: "She, she is recuperating at my home..."
