Qiao? Ao Wu tapped his fingertips on the armrest of the wheelchair and looked at Li Ruo from bottom to top.
The other party changed his clothes and shoes and arrived a little later than himself and Hang Shiqi. He didn't feel like he was being followed on the way, basically ruling out the possibility of being followed.
It's not like he checked in by chance. Liruo's ex-husbands left him a lot of money and a house, so he shouldn't need to stay in an inn.
So either this person had an accomplice nearby who told him his location.
Or, he had set his sights on me before entering the South Tower, and he came for him from the beginning.
However, at most the other party only knew that he had some relationship with the city lord of Lieyang City, and he probably did not recognize that he was the Wolf King of the North. Otherwise, he would not dare to get close to him, and he would not really regard Hang Shiqi as his servant.
"This inn is full, you can find another one." Ao Wu thought of this and directly kicked people out for the sake of peace and quiet.
"Our inn is not..." The doorman was about to say that our inn is not full. When he met Ao Wu's eyes, he changed his mind decisively: "It's full."
"It doesn't matter, my friend has booked a room for me in advance." Li Ruo seemed not to have heard the rejection in Ao Wu's words: "It's the second room on the west side of the upper room. Where is sir?"
They are in the third room.
Hang Shiqi was unhappy: "How come you are so haunted?"
Li Ruo glanced at Hang Shiqi and didn't say anything back. His quarrel with the boy would only affect the gentleman in the wheelchair's good impression of her.
So he looked at Ao Wu aggrievedly, intending to pretend to be pitiful. Unexpectedly, Hang Shiqi was the first to complain to Ao Wu with an expression even more aggrieved than him: "He glared at me! He is so scary, does he want to use it on me?"
What kind of evil magic is this? I won’t die, right?”
Liruo: "???"
Witchcraft is pure nonsense, but Li Ruo is indeed dangerous. Although it is not clear how the gang behind him operates, but if he threatens Shi Qi and himself... Ao Wu stared at the empty space, his eyes wide.
As it gets colder, neither he nor the people behind him can stay.
"Ah!" Li Ruo sneezed and rubbed the tip of her nose: "Why is it almost summer, but you still feel a little cold?"
"Let's go back. Master, your body is weak. You should stay away from such sick people." After finishing speaking, Hang Shiqi pushed his wheelchair back to the room without waiting for Ao Wu's consent.
"Huh, why is this guy so annoying? If he were here, wouldn't we have to take the disguise with us when we leave the room for the next few days?" Hang Shiqi closed the door and said angrily.
Ao Wu took off his coat and put it into the space: "No need, this person should have seen us before we were disguised."
"Huh? When?" Hang Shiqi didn't understand.
Ao Wu patiently explained to Hang Shiqi: "He obviously didn't just set his sights on us. Whether it was today's meeting in the south building or the inn, it was all planned in advance. Otherwise, do you think it was such a coincidence that he happened to live with us?
next door?"
"Ah?" Hang Shiqi scratched his hair: "Is there still a plan? Then our identities won't be exposed, right?"
"Then don't worry, he doesn't have much information, otherwise he wouldn't really treat you as my servant today." Ao Wu said and hung a cold jade bell on the window.
"Why hang a bell here? It looks pretty." Hang Shiqi reached out and touched the bell. The material was cold and it made a crisp sound when it shook.
"The cold jade bell is used for summons." Ao Wu said.
"Who are you summoning?" As soon as Hang Shiqi finished asking, he saw several figures falling in the yard and saluted Ao Wu: "Boss."
Familiar names are only used by people in the hunting team, but Hang Shiqi looked at the people in front of him and felt a little unfamiliar. He had never seen them before.
But the other party seemed to know Hang Shiqi, nodded to him, and called: "Sister-in-law!"
"Huh?" This was the first time Hang Shiqi was called that. He was stunned for a few seconds with his mouth half open, and said dryly: "I'm not..."
Ao Wu pinched Hang Shiqi's ears and stretched out his hand to hug him: "Don't bark, he doesn't like it."
"Yes." The spy leader responded.
Hang Shiqi leaned back comfortably. In fact, it wasn't that he didn't like it, but it was just awkward. After all, he was a man.
"Have you checked Li Ruo's information?" Ao Wu asked about business.
"Not many people pay attention to it." The spy leader said some things, which can be known by asking outside.
"Check it out." Since the other party is coming to your door, you still need to take precautions early. Ao Wu asked again: "How is the current situation in the north?"
"Commander Ao Jing announced to the outside world that you are in poor health and need to recuperate, but the Presbyterian Church seems not to be satisfied. Recently, they have been cooperating with the Chamber of Commerce to request to see you. The high priest came forward to temporarily suppress it. The Yunhu clan on the eastern front has recently begun to visit the border.
Defenses have been set up, but trade with the northern border has not been interrupted for the time being. The Fire Feather Clan on the western front has completely blocked the border. Information coming from over there said that the Fire Feather Clan has transported a lot of food and supplies to the border, and there may be a big move."
Ao Wu was not too surprised. The situation was similar to what he expected: "I understand. Prepare a carriage for me, four long-maned winged horses for the carriage. Also prepare two unicorn horses separately."
"yes."
There was a knock on the door behind me.
"I guess the healing priest is here. I'll go take a look while you chat." Hang Shiqi closed the door leading to the small courtyard, got up and walked towards the door.
Opening the door, he saw Li Ruo, half leaning against the door frame, standing at the door with a twisted posture, holding a plate of crystal clear rice cakes in his hand. Hang Shiqi's eyebrows knitted together: "Why is it you?"
Li Ruo didn't answer, stretched her neck and looked into the room: "Where is your young master?"
"I'm taking a shower." Hang Shiqi said nonchalantly, "You're not welcome here. Don't come out and be annoying."
But Li Ruo pushed him away and barged in: "It doesn't matter whether you welcome me or not. It's up to your young master to decide."
"Alas! I didn't let you in!" Hang Shiqi knew that Ao Wu was not really taking a bath, but he was afraid that he would bump into the spies and hear something he shouldn't hear. Seeing that Li Ruo couldn't stop him no matter how hard he tried, he became very anxious.
The ground gave Li Ruo a hand.
"Bang!" Li Ruo pushed back a few steps, leaned back, and accidentally bumped into the basin. Half of the basin of water used for washing hands was splashed on Li Ruo's clothes. He was originally wearing a thin white gauze dress.
, after getting wet, it becomes somewhat transparent and sticks to the body, and the color of the skin can almost be seen clearly. The plate of pastries in his hand also fell to the ground, and rolled everywhere.
"Even if you hate me, you can't push me against the basin on purpose!" Li Ruo wiped the water from her face and asked Hang Shiqi.
Hang Shiqi gestured at the place, angle, and distance where he just dumped the person, and concluded with certainty: "I just told you not to come in. It was obviously you who bumped into it on purpose."
"I want to tell your young master." Li Ruo walked inside with her arms wet.
Hang Shiqi just wanted to stop him, but saw the door being opened by Ao Wu. The spies were missing from the yard. Ao Wu was leaning on the door frame, still looking a little weak. He looked at Li Ruo, whose clothes were mostly wet, with a cold expression on his face.
Ask: "Tell me what."
Li Ruo puffed up her mouth and said angrily to Ao Wu: "Sir, I just want to come to visit you and give you some pastries I made, but your servant kept driving me out. Not only did he make some
He turned over my cake and poured water on me."
Good guy, it turned into splashing with water. Hang Shiqi rolled his eyes and listened to Li Ruo making it up.
"Correction, first, he is not my servant, he is my partner. Second," Ao Wu walked to Hang Qiqi's side, stood up straight, his laziness and casualness disappeared, and his fierce and murderous aura directed towards him.
Li Ruo came over: "Don't say it was just splashing water. Even if he throws you into the pool, I will only help him touch up when you climb up. If there is no problem, you can get out. I won't do it again without permission next time."
If you break in, you may not be able to walk out."
Li Ruo wanted to show his calm side, but he didn't know if he had splashed water to cool down his body. He was shaking violently, and when he opened his mouth, his teeth bumped up and down uncontrollably, and his brain became sluggish.
She screamed and wanted to run away from this man quickly.
He almost rolled out of the room, his movements unprecedentedly embarrassing. As soon as he opened the door, he ran into the priest who came to treat Ao Wu. His expression changed again, and he finally left without saying a word.
The healing priest looked at the rolling female flower snake and felt a little strange: "Who is this?"
"He lives next door and went to the wrong room." Hang Shiqi said casually, and moved a chair for the priest with great respect: "Grandpa Priest, please sit down first, I will ask someone to clean this place."
The healing priest came to treat Ao Wu's injuries as usual.
Ao Wu leaned on the bedside and closed his eyes to sleep, enduring the discomfort of forcibly speeding up his recovery.
The treatment process lasted for an hour, and by the end of it Ao Wu had a thin layer of sweat on his head. Hang Shiqi handed him a wet towel to wipe his face, and asked the priest: "How is his recovery?"
"His Royal Highness's body has a strong recovery ability. The internal organs have basically been repaired, and the recovery of the bones is better than expected. However, please try to stay in bed and rest as much as possible these days. Avoid strenuous activities."
"Thank you." Ao Wu nodded and thanked him.
The healing priest leaned forward in fear: "You two are the lord's benefactors, so there is no need to be so polite. This is what we should do."
"By the way, have you found the lord's son?" Hang Shiqi asked with concern.
Healing Priest: "I heard that there are already some clues."
The efficiency of the city lord was higher than Hang Shiqi imagined. One day later, Hang Shiqi and Ao Wu heard from the spies that the cave that Hang Shiqi mentioned had been found. The young master of the lord's family was still alive and was heading to the city.
Rushing on the side.
"Still alive?" Although it was a good thing, Hang Shiqi felt a little uneasy when he heard it: "You can't just pretend that Cocoon Rat is pretending, right?"
"I heard that I had it checked by a priest and it is indeed the young master."
Hang Shiqi breathed a sigh of relief and said happily: "That's good! Now the lord doesn't have to be sad because of his son."
The spy added: "The boss asked me to investigate Li Ruo's affairs, and I made some new discoveries. A large part of his money flowed to a chamber of commerce, and the owner behind that chamber of commerce was Yun Wulan's people. In addition, Li Ruo
Those ex-husbands who died have one thing in common: after their death, their bodies disappeared."
"The body is missing?" Hang Qiqi was very sensitive to this reaction: "Isn't it also taken away by the Cocoon Rat Orc?"
Ao Wu's eyes moved slightly: "Check again. In addition, now that the cave used by the Cocoon Priest to resurrect has been found, whose bodies are found? Which ones are dead, which are alive, and which are missing? You can find a way to deal with them. Come out with a list.”
On the other side, Li Ruo was kneeling in a dark room, begging the person on the other side of the curtain: "Can you change the target this time?"
"Change? Why, didn't you choose the target yourself?" A clear female voice came from the curtain. She sounded like she was only in her teens, but her tone was very mature: "You don't like it anymore?"
"That man was so scary, I could feel that he really wanted to kill me." Li Ruo still felt frightened when she remembered the feeling of being looked at by Ao Wu at the end.
"Oh? Why is it so scary? Tell me." The girl showed interest in her tone.
"Although he usually sits in a wheelchair and is very sick, when he showed his murderous intent, I couldn't even move. That kind of momentum was so terrifying. I have never seen such a terrifying person. And he was so scary. There is a boy who only likes that boy in his heart and is not unmoved by me at all. That boy also treats him very seriously, so I can't get close to him."
"Where can such a young man exist? Are you really sure that the relationship between the two of them is master and servant?" the girl asked, shaking her legs.
Li Ruo was stunned: "I don't know. I just saw one of them wearing a servant's clothes and the other in a wheelchair. They really don't look like masters and servants, but more like lovers. Oh, they are still disguised when they go out. It seems that they are afraid of being recognized by someone. But they are indeed very good-looking, especially the one in the wheelchair. He should be a noble with high bloodline."
"Tell me carefully." The girl confirmed with him as if she remembered something: "You said they arrived in Lieyang City three days ago?"
"Yes, I targeted them when they entered the city three days ago. They followed the lord's carriage. Later I heard that the lord sent a priest to treat the man in a wheelchair..."
"Does the boy you are talking about have white hair and blue eyes?" The girl sat up suddenly after listening to his description.
"Yes, do you know him?" Li Ruo raised his head and asked.
"Ha, it turns out they are hiding here and didn't go to the north. Why can't I find it no matter how much I search? He is not a young man. You have a good vision this time. The man in the wheelchair is the top in the continent... …”
Li Ruo: "Who are they?"
Girl: "Don't pry. The less you know, the less likely it will be revealed."
"But, do you still want to continue? That man is too scary, I really can't do it."
"Do you think you can still leave, Li Ruo? Don't forget, without me, you would still be a flower snake sweeping the floor in the Chu Palace." His tone became stern.
Li Ruo shrank his neck in fear: "Yes, but..."
"Well, since it's them, I won't make it difficult for you. You don't need to please anyone, you just need to monitor their actions in Lieyang City and find a way to keep them for me and don't let them escape. "This task is not difficult, right?" The girl jumped out of her seat and walked back and forth on the other side of the curtain with her hands behind her back.
"It should be, it's not difficult." Li Ruo breathed a sigh of relief and said uncertainly.
The girl nodded, her voice like a devil whispering: "Be good. This task is very important. Once completed, I will let you go free. If you fail, I will make you regret living."
