"Well, you come to Wuliting outside the city. I'll wait for you here."
After Daoming finished speaking, his whole body exploded and disappeared without a trace. Apparently this was just his clone.
"Little Saint, please wait a moment, I will arrange things at home."
Li finished speaking softly and walked quickly outside.
After a while, I saw her put on a black outfit and came back with a baggage and a sword in her hand, "Everything has been arranged. Let's set off quickly. Don't keep us waiting."
Niu Xiaosheng nodded.
The two of them walked outside the door, and the old man guarding the door had already restrained a horse and was waiting.
Li Qingqing took the reins from the old man's hand and apologized to Niu Xiaosheng: "There is only one horse in the house, so I can only make do with it. Do you like to sit in the front or the back?"
"Back there."
Niu Xiaosheng felt that it was too awkward to sit in front and be held by a girl.
"That's okay."
Li lightly stepped on the stirrup, turned over, moved his buttocks forward for a while, then stretched out his hand to Niu Xiaosheng and said: "Come up quickly."
Niu Xiaosheng grabbed Li Qingqing's palm, jumped onto the horse with a slight jump, his movements were like flowing water.
When he sat down, he found that the saddle was a little crowded. The two of them were close to each other, feeling the softness in front of him. He suddenly found that his little brother was about to make a move, which frightened him and quickly calmed him down.
"Hold on tight."
Li Qingqing didn't have so many thoughts at this time. She reminded her, shook the reins with both hands, and the horse immediately rushed out along the street.
He didn't feel anything at first, but after running for a while, Li Qingqing frowned slightly and couldn't help but move his hips. Then he remembered something, and the tips of his ears suddenly turned red, and he didn't dare to move anymore.
Niu Xiaosheng was naturally aware of Li Qingqing's change, but there was nothing he could do about it. If it were somewhere else, he could still control it, but he couldn't control it there at all. He could only endure the soreness from the friction.
It's cool, while pretending that nothing happened.
When they arrived at the Wuliting Pavilion outside the city, Niu Xiaosheng jumped down from the top before the horse could stop. His legs were slightly weak and he almost lost his balance.
Li gently reined in the horse's head, his face turned red and he was covered in fragrant sweat.
The two of them tacitly agreed not to talk about what had just happened, and walked towards the pavilion together. A man wearing a silver star robe was standing on the top of the pavilion.
"Here it comes, come up."
Daoming waved his sleeves, and a stream of light flew out of his hand, then turned into a flying boat suspended in mid-air in front of him.
It’s hard to tell what kind of material the flying boat is made of. It has strange patterns shining all over its body and is about the size of a small fishing boat.
Niu Xiaosheng's eyes flashed with envy. He glanced at Li Qingqing beside him, and the two of them jumped on the flying boat together.
Daoming stood at the front of the flying boat, but he didn't see any movement. The flying boat roared, turned into a stream of light and rose into the sky, and instantly disappeared into the clouds in the sky.
Looking at the scenery that had become a straight line on both sides, Niu Xiaosheng discovered that the speed of this flying boat was countless times faster than Lu Xiaofeng's gourd.
"Little Saint, this matter involves the Zhou family. When we get to the place, I will conduct a secret investigation first. Don't come forward. Stay in the city first. I will contact you if anything happens."
Dao Ming turned to Niu Xiaosheng and ordered.
"Everything depends on my uncle's arrangements."
Niu Xiaosheng responded and said that he had no objection to this arrangement. After all, the main purpose of his trip was to get some credit with Dao Ming. It would be better to leave things like case investigation to professionals.
The speed of the flying boat was very fast. It only took half an hour to reach the state capital, and its speed also slowly slowed down.
Even Dao Ming did not dare to blatantly rush into the various county towns in the prefecture capital. He would be seeking death, so they found a place outside the city to land, and the three of them walked toward the city gate.
As they approached the city gate, Dao Ming handed over two directions to the two of them, "We will part ways here. After entering the city, you will wait for my news at the Osmanthus Blossom Tower in the city."
After the explanation, he turned around and blended into the crowd entering the city. He didn't know what method he used, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
"Let's go too."
Niu Xiaosheng said softly to Li.
Although the northern demons invaded Youzhou, they did not affect the people here in the city at all. People entering and leaving the city lined up in long queues, rubbing shoulders with each other.
Osmanthus Blossom Building is quite famous. After the two of them entered the city, they easily found the place by asking someone.
"Meal or accommodation for the two of you?"
"Get two rooms."
"How long will you two stay?"
"I don't know yet. I think I will stay there for a while."
"In this case, pay a deposit of fifty taels first, and any more will be paid back."
Just as Niu Xiaosheng was about to pay, Li Qingqing beside him had already handed a banknote to the shopkeeper.
The shopkeeper put away the banknotes, gave the two people two signs, and then shouted to the clerk working in the lobby: "Ah Liu, hurry up and take these two guests to the two rooms on the third floor that are still vacant."
"Okay."
The waiter put the towel on his shoulders, walked over quickly, bowed and said with a smile: "This way, please, two guests."
In the blink of an eye, three days have passed, and there has been no news from Daoming. Niu Xiaosheng practices in his room every day except for eating. He doesn't feel anything. Li Qingqing is not idle either. She goes out at dawn every day and comes back at night.
.
Niu Xiaosheng asked her what she was going to do, and she said she was going to get familiar with the surrounding terrain, various restaurants and inns, and listen to the conversations of the guests.
That night, Li Qingqing dressed in men's clothing and knocked on Niu Xiaosheng's door.
"Let's go, let me take you somewhere?"
"Where to go?"
Niu Xiaosheng asked curiously.
“You’ll know once you go there.”
Li gently pulled Niu Xiaosheng out and walked out. The night in the state capital was no different than other places. The streets were still brightly lit, illuminating half of the sky. The vendors and shops on both sides were still open and very lively.
Niu Xiaosheng followed Li Qingqing through the streets, and soon came to a lake. There were several huge flower boats parked on the water in the lake, and waves of coquettish laughter, curses and melancholy sounds came from the boats.
Li gently pulled Niu Xiaosheng onto one of the flower boats without changing his expression.
"Why did you bring me here?"
Niu Xiaosheng lowered his voice and said.
"I heard that this place is the most well-informed in the entire city. Let's sit down and see if we can hear some useful information."
Li Qingqing explained calmly.
It was also her first time to come to such a place, and she couldn't help but blush when she saw the women in cool clothes and the men with hands around her.
Niu Xiaosheng, on the other hand, looked around with interest. After all, it was his first time to visit the flower boat after time travel. He had seen this kind of scene in some costume dramas before. Now it seems that the pattern of those costume dramas is still small.
Some.
After a while, someone came towards the two of them.
