That night, Ruyi thought she couldn't sleep, but she didn't expect that she fell into a deep sleep not long after washing and lying down.
After being robbed, she never slept soundly, even though she was very tired, tired and sleepy.
Maybe that young man gave her a sense of security, so she slept until dawn and felt much more energetic.
After simply washing up and walking out of the room, the young man ordered someone to bring breakfast.
"Sir, could you please send me to Xuzhou?" Ruyi said after finishing half a bowl of wontons and seeing that the other party had no intention of asking where he lived.
"Xuzhou?" The young man didn't expect it.
Seeing his reaction, Ruyi thought for a moment: "But it's not convenient for the young master to go there? Then you can send me to Yecheng."
Although this place can be regarded as Ye Cheng's territory, it's not entirely.
Ruyi remembered that after Gu Yan took the initiative to show his goodwill, people outside Yecheng voluntarily gave up dozens of miles of territory, but her mother did not let Lan Shouyizhen, who was in charge of Yecheng, take over.
Therefore, if it is inconvenient for the person in front of me to go to Xuzhou, I can send her to the gate of Yecheng.
It should also be possible to ask Yecheng guard Lan Yiquan to escort her back to Xuzhou!
"It is indeed inconvenient to enter Xuzhou City, so let's go to Yecheng. But are you sure you can go to the city gate?" The young man asked with some worry. His subordinates came to report it. There were too many people outside at midnight last night.
There are many quacks.
This morning, people from the world were coming here one after another, and the young man was hesitating whether to tell the young man in front of him about this.
After hearing this, Ruyi shook her head slightly. She was not sure. She had heard her mother and her second brother talking about Yecheng's defense situation. It was the same as in other cities before.
But later, because of the Yangli Prince Qi Weisheng, after careful consideration, he felt that Yecheng was slightly more stable than other cities, so almost all the capable people here were transferred to Xuzhou City.
The soldiers and horses have also been secretly transferred to Loucheng. Now Yecheng's military strength is also empty.
Therefore, this is also the reason why I asked this person to escort me to Xuzhou.
"Little brother, you have to hurry up and I'll make some arrangements later." Seeing her reaction, the young man thought for a while and then got up and walked out.
When he got outside, his men immediately came forward without waiting for him to greet him.
The young man took out a token from his arms and handed it to one of his subordinates: "Go and call me a hundred, no, three hundred people, who can fight."
The subordinate who received the token hesitated for a moment before accepting the order and left quickly.
"Sir, are you going to such a big fight just because of an unknown boy?" The other man next to him couldn't help but said. After speaking, he looked at his master anxiously.
The young man was not dissatisfied: "Don't worry about his identity or not. He was the person I saved by chance. If I can't protect him, will I be able to hold my head high in the future?"
"My subordinates overstepped their bounds, please punish me." The subordinates clasped their fists and knelt down on one knee to admit their mistake.
"Okay, get up. Don't be careless this time. Don't underestimate the enemy." After the young man finished speaking, he turned around and entered the room again.
Hearing him say that he had ordered people to find helpers, Ruyi stood up, clasped her fists and saluted him solemnly: "Thank you so much, I'll write it down."
Although she has been dressing up in men's clothing these years, she is not walking around like her two brothers. Therefore, in this situation, Ruyi really doesn't know how to express her gratitude.
I felt that whatever I said was false, it would be better to wait until I got back to my parents to talk about it. My parents would definitely thank each other again.
As for herself? For a moment, she really couldn't think of anything suitable as a thank you gift. She could think of how to repay her later.
"Master, it's not good, they have surrounded the inn." The door suddenly opened.
After hearing this, the young man walked to the window, opened it a little and looked out. Sure enough, there were some people outside the inn holding weapons. He recognized one of them. He was the innkeeper. At this time, the innkeeper was looking towards this place with someone.
He pointed at the position of the window and said something.
"Sir, if not, you can leave first. Their target is me, but I know they won't kill me." Ruyi followed him just now and looked outside. Seeing such a situation, she didn't want to injure others.
When the young man heard what Ruyi said, he smiled and said, "In the eyes of my little brother, am I someone who is greedy for life and afraid of death?"
"But, there are too many of them." Ruyi didn't know what to say.
There were only a few people seen through the cracks in the window. It didn't take much to think about it. There would be many people in other places, otherwise the subordinate wouldn't have said that they were surrounding the guests.
So far, Ruyi has only seen three of the young master's followers.
One of them had just been ordered by him to recruit helpers.
Then there are only three of them. No matter how high their martial arts skills are, they can't stand against the opponent's large number of people!
"Who are you, stop, don't move forward." The attendant at the door warned sternly.
Immediately afterwards, there was the sound of a weapon being unsheathed.
"Are you sure they won't kill you, right?" The young man suddenly asked.
Ruyi nodded, but didn't understand why he asked like this, but she saw him stretching out his arm towards her. Before she could react, she saw him raising his leg and kicking the window, holding her waist, jumping to the window and stepping on the tiles.
The film swished forward.
The people below came out shouting, and some were scolding them not to shoot arrows while chasing them below. The scene was a chaos.
The young man blew a whistle, Ruyi thought that this should be a signal he was sending to his followers.
Ruyi was led up and down the rooftops, feeling annoyed again. She was urged to leave by the fake 'Uncle Leng', and she didn't even have time to bring her short crossbow.
They took her without even searching her body, otherwise, the disguised bag would have been discovered.
Seeing that there were no buildings not far ahead, he heard the rapid sound of horse hooves. This must be the bad guy chasing after him on horseback. Ruyi thought and did not turn around to look.
She didn't dare to move for fear of affecting the young master who rescued her.
In fact, she just wanted to say, let her down and she can keep up on her own.
She also practiced Qing Gong, and she wasn't particularly good at it, but she could still run on such a high roof.
When the young man heard the sound of horse hooves, he turned his head slightly and looked down, then suddenly jumped down with Ruyi in his arms.
After Ruyi reacted, he realized that he was already on horseback.
There was indeed someone chasing after him on horseback, but the horse he was riding now was obviously more powerful. This wasn't the bad guy's horse, but his own mount. Ruyi thought of the whistle he had made before.
Ruyi cheered on the horse in her heart, and insisted on reaching the city gate as soon as possible. As long as she could enter the city gate, and then close the city gate in time to keep these people out, could she also persist until her mother took her?
Someone is coming?
However, dozens of people also holding weapons suddenly appeared in front of them.
The young man reined in the horse's reins, looked at the people chasing behind him, and then looked at the people blocking the way in front of him, and whispered in Ruyi's ear: "Little brother, you, or rather your family, have caused a lot of trouble. Look at this battle.
