Chapter 166: Troubled Times
"Kill people and suck blood"
How is this possible? Brother Du is a very kind person. How could he do such a cruel thing?
Thinking about why I helped Brother Du in the first place, it was not only because Brother Du was wrongly accused, but also because Brother Du had once saved my life.
When Brother Du was forced into his own coffin shop by those who were chasing him, they directly attacked him with bows and arrows. If Brother Du had not risked his life to save him, he would have died long ago.
Could a person like this, who has experienced a tragic life but still helps strangers, really be an unforgivable evil person?
After a brief pause, Taoist Qi Heng said to the woman in front of him, "Yun Niang, did Xiao Huan see it wrong last night? Was the murderer and bloodsucker really Brother Du? Or does he have some difficulties? I think we must get to the bottom of this matter."
Ha! How could she be wrong? Now her daughter’s heart was almost entirely on that boy. She felt that the daughter might be wrong, but she could not be wrong about that stinky boy named Du.
As for the hardship, what kind of hardship could make a person suck the blood of his own kind? Even ordinary wild beasts would not do such a thing.
Yan Qiaoyun looked at the Taoist priest in front of him helplessly, and his words became more serious at this moment. "Brother Qi, I don't care what the boy's difficulties are. It is a fact that he kills people and sucks blood. So for Xiaohuan's safety and for my safety, I hope that Brother Qi, you will stop paying attention to that boy.
Brother Qi, you should stay in Yanchun Tower for the time being. I will find a way to go out of the city with you after some time. We can hide somewhere else and come back after the incident has passed. ”
Hearing this, Taoist Qi Heng looked at the woman in front of him in surprise and said, "Yun Niang, are you also going to leave Wuyun City? What about your family business then?"
Gently tucking a strand of black hair behind her ear, Yan Qiaoyun looked at the person in front of her with tenderness in her eyes, "It's just material possessions. Besides, I have found many suitable people to help take care of me over the years.
Besides, Brother Qi, you have been wanting to go back to Qingzhou for a long time, so how about we take Xiao Huan with us to visit your master's sect?"
Returning to the sect? Yes, I have been away for a long time. It is time to go back and take a look.
But he was still a little hesitant and didn't know how to face his senior brother. If he hadn't been so stubborn, Miss Chen Yue wouldn't have died. If Miss Chen Yue was still alive, his senior brother would have lived a happy life.
As for Brother Du's matter, alas! He was also powerless.
In order to save Yun Niang, they had a fight with the bastards from Badao Sect.
They were outnumbered and their own military strength was insufficient, so although they managed to escape, they also suffered irreparable damage.
But even if he was in his prime, what could he do? He was just a third-rate fighter in the underworld back then. He should not be able to help with the troubles that Brother Du encountered.
With a hint of loneliness in his eyes, Taoist Qi Heng said to the woman in front of him, "Okay, let's go out and relax together in a few days."
When Yan Qiaoyun heard the Taoist's agreement, a look of ecstasy immediately appeared on her face. In recent years, many people have expressed their love for her.
Some of them do it for their money and bodies, but there are also a few who are sincere.
But she had never paid any attention to these people. Ever since she was rescued by Brother Qi, and since they supported each other on the road to escape, her heart, Yan Qiaoyun, had been firmly tied to him and there was no room for anyone else.
A drizzle was falling from the sky. It was already the fifth day since Gu Nian'an returned to Wuyun City. After five days of investigation, he found nothing unusual in Wuyun City.
Holding an umbrella in one hand, Gu Nian'an walked slowly on the wide street of Wuyun City, opening his eyes slightly to look at the pedestrians passing by him.
Suddenly he sighed helplessly. The deathly aura surrounding them was gradually intensifying, and the sky above Wuyun City was already shrouded by a thick layer of deathly aura.
So what went wrong? Why wasn't there even any sign of it? Could it be that some extremely horrific natural disaster had befallen? If that was the case, there was nothing I could do.
While thinking, Gu Nian'an slowly walked towards the city gate. According to the itinerary of the Yanyue Sect, they would arrive at Wuyun City in the next few days.
But judging from the current situation in Wuyun City, entering the city would be tantamount to seeking death, so if possible he still wanted to persuade them, after all, the relationship between them was still good.
Arriving at the city gate, Gu Nian'an skillfully bowed to an old gatekeeper who was taking shelter from the rain under the city gate and said, "Uncle Wang, do you have any news about the matter I asked you to inquire about?"
When the middle-aged soldier saw that the person coming was Gu Nian'an, he quickly bowed and responded, "Mr. Gu, there is no news yet, but don't worry, I have already informed my colleagues, and I will notify you as soon as there is news."
"Well, then I'll trouble you, Uncle Wang."
After saying this, Gu Nian'an took out a ten-liang silver ingot from his sleeve and quietly handed it over.
He quickly looked up and glanced around, and found that no one was paying attention to the old soldier guarding the gate, so he quickly reached out and took the silver ingot from Gu Nian'an. After taking the silver, the old soldier named Wang weighed it slightly on his sleeve.
Well, it’s pure silver, and quite heavy.
After receiving the generous reward, the old soldier surnamed Wang smiled even more brightly, and then he bowed to Gu Nian'an again and said, "Mr. Gu, I will inform the brothers later. When I see the person you are looking for, I will definitely inform you as soon as possible."
"Okay, thank you Uncle Wang."
"No thanks, no thanks, this is what I should do."
Isn't that what he should do? After meeting this guy named Gu no more than three times, he has already received fifty taels of reward. Including the share to be shared with his companions, he can still earn at least thirty taels.
He would feel embarrassed if I didn't help him with such a simple task.
As for whether this matter will bring trouble to myself, it’s no big deal.
All he has to do is secretly tell the people he's looking for that person, and maybe he can get a generous reward for it.
After exchanging a few pleasantries with the old gatekeeper, Gu Nian'an turned and left.
Alas! "Uncle Master" "Du Yuming" "And the catastrophe that is about to happen in Wuyun City"
He is really troubled by all kinds of things now, but he can't find the key to break the deadlock for a while. This is really frustrating.
At the same time, in a village hundreds of miles away from Wuyun City, the people of Yanyue Sect were ready and preparing to set off.
At this time, Ye Jinxiu gently lifted the curtain and looked at the rain outside the carriage.
If we speed up today, we should be able to reach Wuyun City before nightfall. But there is no need to rush. There are still five days left before Wanjun's wedding. As long as we can arrive before her wedding, it will be fine.
Moreover, after arriving in Wuyun City, she had to find Young Master Gu as soon as possible. If he had not found his uncle yet, maybe she could be of some help. After all, she needed to repay the man who saved her child.
