Chapter 144 - calculation
Duan Qingming listened, his wise eyes flashed, and then nodded and said:
"Tiefeng, in this case, you first send someone to check in front to see if there is anyone living in this twilight mountain?"
Tiefeng took the order and sent someone to check first. At this time, the carriage began to walk all the way. Along the way, Tiefeng strictly followed Duan Qingming's instructions and drenched all the horse manure with water. Then, it is covered with thin snow. At this time, because the second snow was coming, the temperature in the mountain was getting lower and lower. Before long, the horse dung that had been drenched in the water really began to freeze!
When Tiefeng came back and told Duan Qingming all this, Duan Qingming just had calm eyes and didn't know what she was thinking!
All this was seen by Yan Lingyu. Although all this may not be useful, he only looked at it quietly, neither making a sound nor seemed to be ready to intervene!
Not long after moving forward, Duan Qingming heard the sound of the bodyguard sent out to return quickly. Soon after, Tiefeng came forward and reported to Duan Qingming through the window:
"Miss, the bodyguard sent to inquire said that there was a family living not far ahead!"
Duan Qingming was immediately happy when she heard this, so she whispered to Tie Feng through the window!
When Tiefeng heard this, he nodded repeatedly!
When we arrived near where the family lived, the carriage stopped on the roadside. Make an excuse to ask for water from the old man who is sweeping snow at the door!
The family was originally a hunter. His son went into the mountains to hunt and has not returned for several days. Leave only the wife and parents at home!
Usually, few people walk on this mountain road. At first glance, when they saw such a splendid motorcade, the old man enthusiastically invited them to enter the house to rest. After being politely rejected, the old man took out the water and casually asked:
"Brother, where are you going?"
The asked bodyguard drank the hand in the ladle and filled the bag before answering:
"Our lady has finished incense. She is going back to her home in Qi County!"
The old man nodded, said "hard work", and then turned to greet others!
At this time, the woman in the car also got out of the car. Because she was a woman, it was a young woman, the wife of the hunter, who came out this time.
Because they have been instructed in advance, these women drink water and get water very fast! Just then, suddenly, the widest carriage in the middle sounded, and a young lady was slowly walking off the carriage with the help of the girl!
The young lady is only about ten years old. Although her clothes are simple, she is elegant and graceful. She was wearing a hat and couldn't see her face clearly, and only a pair of clear eyes could be faintly seen. Like a pearl soaked in mercury, it is brilliant and wise!
That girl is Duan Qingming.
She got out of the carriage and thanked the family. When he left, he pulled out the hairpin on his head and inserted it into the young woman's hair!
That young woman is the wife of a hunter. How could she wear such a valuable thing? She blushed and quickly refused:
"Miss, this is too expensive to use, can't use it!"
Duan Qingming smiled, and between her lips and teeth, the sound was like a jade plate:
"A porridge and a water are all graces. I just want to express my gratitude. Please don't refuse! What's more, I have something to trust!"
The young woman suffered shyly as soon as she heard that she had something to ask.
Then, Duan Qingming thanked the family again and again, and then boarded the carriage and slowly left!
When he began to move forward again, Yan Lingyu, who had been resting with his eyes closed, suddenly opened a pair of dark eyes, looked at Duan Qingming with burning eyes and said:
"Do you want to attract those killers?"
When he said these words, Yan Lingyu was lying down. Because he had just pulled out the poison, his face was pale and he was completely blank. However, even if he is dressed in simple white and lying in the car with such a lazy look, his face still exudes a fascinating light, which is heart-pounding!
Duan Qingming couldn't help saying, "Demon." Then, he quickly turned his head!
When he heard that Duan Qingming did not answer, Yan Lingyu said lightly:
"It's useless for those people!"
Yan Lingyu knows his opponent very well, the character of that person, and the skills of those people in black, so he believes that Duan Qingming's efforts along the way are just useless tricks, which can only be useless!
My efforts all the way were rejected in one sentence. Duan Qingming was not annoyed. She only looked at the teacup on the small table and said lightly:
"It's definitely not possible to attract them. I just want to delay some time!"
Yan Lingyu smiled quietly. His direction was aimed at Duan Qingming's side face. He only saw the young girl's quiet face, delicate eyebrows, and a pair of cunning and extremely bright pupils. Obviously, it is a girl who is less than ten years old, but you can always see a kind of resilience of adults and tension that ordinary people can't reach from her!
At this time, Duan Qingming's eyes were looking at the vast snowy mountains outside the window. Her expression was focused and serious. With the faint light of snow outside the window, she stretched out half of her hand, white as jade!
Yan Lingyu looked at it and fell into a rare silence!
Or, being with her like this, no matter the road ahead is high and dangerous, it's a kind of enjoyment!
Seeing that the road ahead was difficult to walk, and the carriage bumped again. He only frowned slightly, but didn't say anything!
Feel the bumps of the carriage, Duan Qingming looked carefully at Yan Lingyu with some worry, and saw that the other party closed his eyes again. His long eyelashes were trembling rhythmically with the bumpy carriage, as if he were dancing elves!
Duan Qingming looked at it in a daze and almost lost her mind again. After a long time, she withdrew her sight and scolded herself not to be confused by this "master" watch!
Speaking of which, the farmer's doctor's medicine and acupuncture are still useful. At least, Yan Lingyu's face has improved a lot. It seems that the toxins on his body have not rebounded again!
Look at the sky. It was nearly noon. After a rush all the way, the bodyguards looked tired. Duan Qingming thought about it, and the journey was almost gone. So, the carriage was driven into a cave sheltered from the snow, and then let everyone eat some dry food and have a rest!
The second snow has begun to fall. On the mountain road, in a blink of an eye, snowflakes are flying and debris drifting away. Before long, all the traces of the carriage tracks of Duan Qingming and his party were flooded.
Duan Qingming asked people to set up suspicions around again, and then ordered Tie Feng to let people go out to guard. As long as those people in black drive their horses past, they can go back!
******
Besides, at the farmer's door, as expected, not long after Duan Qingming left, a group of people in black chased after him. When I saw a farmer, those in black who had already driven their horses, somehow got off the horse again and inquired about the news of that family! Ask if there is a carriage passing by!
That family is exactly the hunter family that Duan Qingming passed by. When the son is out, there is only an elderly couple and a young daughter-in-law at home. Because it is the heyday of Taiping and the rise of the world, they live without avoiding people.
Seeing someone inquired about the whereabouts of the carriage, the old man said:
"To tell you the truth, this morning, a group of carriages passed in front of my house. Later, they had breakfast with me, and then left!"
At present, it's lunch time. If you have been here today, I'm afraid that those people have already arrived in Qi County! Yesterday, because they set up an ambush around them, but Yan Lingyu was so vigilant that they dared not get too close for fear of beating grass and frightening snakes. Therefore, at that time, they only knew that there were officials living in this Jiuhua'an, but they didn't know that that person was Duan Qingming!
When the man in black heard it, he immediately became suspicious. At this moment, the old man's daughter-in-law pushed the door out and saw someone. She looked shy and quickly withdrew. The blue curtain flashed and drowned her figure, but the dark guard's eyes were different from ordinary people.
