Mu Fei happily took the ice bead and the dagger. He was far more interested in the former than the latter. After trying it out, he put it directly around his neck. Mo Hu found a leather sheath for him to put on the latter.
, pinned to the waist.
Qin Yun still accepted the Wentian Sword. If he was still at the Qi Refining Realm, he might not be willing to take on this hot potato, but now that he has broken through the innate, he has the strength and ability to keep the treasure.
The night was deep, and there were fine snowflakes floating in the sky, making it increasingly cold and unbearable.
After the bloody battle, the people who survived returned to their earthen huts to rest, leaving only a small number of samurai on duty. However, I believe there will be no more danger tonight, otherwise it would be extremely bad luck.
However, Qin Yun, Lin Lang, Mu Fei, Mo Hu and others held private discussions in the room.
"Chapter 203: Arrival at Tokugawa. The White Lady is not dead, but she was seriously injured and will probably not recover for a long time..." Qin Yun told the truth: "There should be no more threats to us!
"
The White Snake is not dead, which is of course not good news, but Old Wolf is still happy: "It's good to be able to hit her hard. Fortunately, Brother Qin, you are strong and smart enough to scare the horse thief with just a few words, otherwise our losses today will still be lost."
Much bigger!”
If the White Snake had not died, the morale of the horse thieves would never have collapsed so quickly. Most of them are desperadoes who are not afraid of death. With so many people, once they start to attack fiercely, Qin Yun alone cannot stop the opponent's madness.
attack.
Therefore, Lao Lang believed that Qin Yun's lies were a clever strategy.
He is also a very decisive person: "However, the White Snake is quite powerful and has many allies in the south to help. In order to prevent accidents, we will give up most of our burdens early tomorrow morning and only bring the captured war horses and the most valuable goods.
Rush to Tokugawa Castle in Lu County!"
The south of Yanyun is very different from the north. Lu County is one of the vassal counties in the south. It nominally belongs to the Yan Dynasty, but it is basically no different from the vassal states of Du Li.
There are seven similar princes and counties, eight in Chapter 203. There are alliances and conflicts between them. Disputes are constant overtly and covertly, and several counties bordering Tiannan Prefecture often suffer from great losses.
Due to the invasion of the empire, a small-scale war broke out decades ago. The situation is still turbulent even now.
Lu County is located in the north, so it is relatively better. Tokugawa Castle is the seat of Lu County. It is safer.
Lin Kee Trading Company has a branch in Tokugawa Castle, so you don't have to worry about the threat of horse thieves when you get there.
After finalizing the plan, Lin Lang was about to leave. At this time, Mu Fei took out the wooden box he had prepared and handed it to him: "Manager Lin, it was us who got you involved this time, causing so many casualties to our brothers, and causing damage to your business.
This box of spiritual jade is my compensation for my loss, please accept it!"
He was generous in his move. You must know that in the south of Yanyun, spiritual jade is more useful than silver tickets and gold coupons, but it is difficult for ordinary merchant families to come up with a whole box of white spiritual jade as a reward gift.
Lin Lang shook his head and said sternly: "Mr. Mu, you are a distinguished guest of our Linji. No matter what you ask for help from us, we will do our best to help without any extra reward!"
To be a distinguished guest of Linji Trading Company, one must have an extraordinary origin. What he was talking about was also the rules of the trading firm.
Lin Lang insisted and refused, and Mu Fei didn't insist anymore.
Lin Lang then said goodbye and left, and then Mo Hu also found an excuse to leave.
Qin Yun and Mu Fei were the only two people left in the room.
Mu Fei pondered for a moment and said: "Brother, you saved my life today. We are sworn brothers, Jinlan. I think I can no longer hide my identity from you!"
Just as Lao Lang and Qin Yun had guessed, he indeed had an unusual identity.
Mu Fei is a direct descendant of the Mu family in Yanjing City, Dayan City. The Mu family has been loyal to the Yan Dynasty for generations. The current head of the family is Mu Tieyi, the general of the auxiliary country. He has led his army to fight against the Wu Clan army many times and has achieved great military exploits.
The military generals of Dayan are divided into three generals: Zhenguo, Zhuguo and Fuguo. Although the Mu family is small in number, but with the existence of Mu Tieyi's giant pillar, the Mu family can be regarded as a fairly famous family in Yanjing.
Prominent family.
However, something unexpected happened, and Mu Tieyi was suddenly framed. Emperor Longwu personally ordered him to be stripped of his official position and thrown into prison. As the saying goes, there is no egg left after the nest is overthrown, and the Mu family was suddenly faced with a disaster.
But at this time, there is no one to help in times of need, but there are many people who are adding insult to injury.
As the only son of Mu Tieyi, Mu Fei was unable to support himself, so he had no choice but to sell off his family property in a hurry and head to the south under the protection of retainers loyal to Mu Tieyi. As a result, he was repeatedly assassinated and intercepted on the way. He was escorted by a congenital strong man.
The old housekeeper also disappeared after a battle was interrupted.
If he hadn't met Qin Yun and Lin Ji Trading Company this time, he might not have been able to escape White Snake's pursuit, and many of his loyal retainers and warriors would have been lost in the battle.
As he spoke, the boy's eyes turned red.
Qin Yun couldn't help but ask: "Then what are your plans in the future?"
Even if he wanted to help, Qin Yun was powerless to do anything about what happened to the Mu family. He was just an inner disciple of the Tiancheng Sword Sect, and an insignificant collateral disciple of the Qin family. It was impossible to intervene in such a matter.
Mu Fei wiped the tears that overflowed from the corners of his eyes and whispered: "I plan to go to Tokugawa to join my uncle. He is a close aide of King Lu Yanyi. King Lu also has a close relationship with my family, which is enough to protect my safety!"
Qin Yun nodded and said: "I will accompany you to Tokugawa. If you find it difficult to establish yourself in Tokugawa in the future, you can come to Xuanwu City of Tiancheng Jianzong to find me. If nothing else, will I let you settle in Xuanwu City?
question!"
This is a just-in-case retreat. Who can guarantee that King Lu will not betray Mu Fei?
Thinking of his father who died young and his mother who was imprisoned in the palace, Qin Yun felt sympathy for the second brother in front of him and was willing to provide him with the help he could.
"Thank you, brother!" Mu Fei saluted gratefully.
"Since you and I are sworn brothers, don't be so polite in the future!" Qin Yun stretched out his hand to support him: "I'm really not used to it!"
Mu Fei smiled slightly, and a thrilling look appeared on his handsome face.
Qin Yun's heart skipped a beat, thinking that if his adopted brother put on women's clothing, he would deceive many men.
Suppressing the strange thoughts in his heart, he quickly said: "I will go to Lingyang in the name of Master. I will send you to Dechuan and then transfer to Jingnan County. After finishing the things, I will return to Dechuan to see you."
Mu Fei really regarded Qin Yun as his backbone and replied without hesitation: "I will obey the orders of my elder brother... When it was dawn, the light snow that had been falling all night finally stopped.
The reorganized team continued on the road, and the carriages laden with goods were abandoned. The caravan took all the horses and four light carriages with people on the road and hurried to Lu County as quickly as possible.
After two days and two nights of traveling day and night, the team finally entered Lu County, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
Lu County is doing well under the governance of Prince Yanyi. At least there are smooth roads on the plains, and cultivated farmland and farms can be seen on the roadside. Although there are not many people in winter, it is still better than the original deserted area.
The wasteland is much better.
After walking on the road for almost three days, the crowds became increasingly dense, and a majestic city standing among the rolling mountains finally appeared in everyone's sight.
Tokugawa Castle has arrived!
There are many merchants and horse-drawn carriages passing by on the wide official road, and from time to time there are cavalry teams with leather armors and weapons patrolling by. On both sides of the road are mostly residential manors, showing the prosperity that a big city should have.
After paying an entry fee, the convoy entered Tokugawa Castle.
After entering Tokugawa Castle, it was time to part ways.
Lin Lang reluctantly said: "Brother Qin, I know you are busy, so I won't invite you to sit in our forest. If we meet again next time, I will treat you to a drink!"
The guards of the caravan also came forward to say goodbye. They were used to seeing separation between life and death, and there was nothing pretentious about it.
Qin Yun clasped his fists in return and watched the caravan leave before continuing on the road with Mu Fei and others.
Mu Fei's uncle Wang's family was in Tokugawa South City. After making inquiries, the group spent a lot of effort to find his residence.
After being informed by the concierge, a middle-aged man with fair face and beard hurried out not long after.
Seeing this man, Mu Fei immediately turned over from his horse and fell directly into his arms, crying with excitement: "Uncle!"
"Fei'er!" The middle-aged man looked up to the sky and sighed, tears rolling down his cheeks: "My uncle was worried day and night after receiving your letter. Now that you have arrived safely, I can finally let go!"
He shook his head, lifted up his sleeves to wipe his tears, and said with a warm smile: "I'm so happy. You came all the way here. You must have been very hard on the road. Come to the house and have a good rest. I have prepared a room for you."
There are servants."
"Thank you, uncle!" Mu Fei wiped away his tears and let go of his arms. He turned around and introduced Qin Yun, who was dismounting at the same time: "Uncle, this is Qin Yun, my eldest brother who befriended Jinlan on the way. Thanks to him for repelling the White Snake.
, otherwise I won’t be able to see you!”
"White Snake? Could it be White Snake, one of the Four Bandits?" The middle-aged man was shocked and looked at Qin Yun with a strange look in his eyes: "How did you escape?"
Yannan Lu County was within the scope of activities of the White Snake Horse Thief Group. They had done a lot of robbing and robbery in the past and were well-known in Lu County. He really couldn't believe that the weak-headed young man in front of him could actually repel the White Snake!
He didn't know that Qin Yun almost killed White Snake, otherwise his jaw would have been shocked.
Qin Yun took a step forward, saluted the middle-aged man and said, "Qin Yun, Tiancheng Sword Sect, has met my uncle!"
He knew that the other party's surname was Wang, but he didn't know his name. He was neither humble nor arrogant as a junior... Thanks to Urban Baiding for the reward! (To be continued) rq
