[101] One night chaos
Ning Yunxi is going to the northern border, so there is no need for the person who originally wanted to send messages to Dongfang Yixuan. Although Ning Yunxi didn't say that, Xuan Shi thought very considerately, so he naturally wanted to surprise his master.
The road to northern Xinjiang is not easy to walk, especially in winter. The northerly it goes, the lower the temperature. At first, Ning Yunxi was just wearing a cotton jacket and cloak, but in the second half of the road, the cloak on her body had turned into a fox fur. If it weren't for the support of her supernatural powers, she felt that she must be on the way back at this time because it was really too cold.
It is cold and snowing. The winter in northern Xinjiang is as beautiful as a dream, but also as cold as hell.
"Miss Ning, there is a dilapidated temple in front of you. Let's go and rest. The horse is going to freeze and it's getting late." Because they all have superpowers, only horses are afraid of the cold.
"Okay." She also felt sorry for these horses, and they all looked at them losing several pounds.
At this time, they have reached the outer periphery of the northern border. After walking for a short period of time, they will reach the target city of Beili City, which is the northernmost city of Daxia Kingdom. Most of the year is in the cold winter.
The dilapidated temple is really broken. Not only does it have no doors, but the roof will also leak snow, but at least it can barely block the wind and is in the center of the entire road. So before Ning Yunxi and others enter, there was already someone in the dilapidated temple.
There were two groups of people in the dilapidated temple, one group of people had five, all of them were men, holding knives in their hands, wearing very thick clothes, and the aura was filled with obscure murderous aura, looking like people from the world, while the other group had three, two men and one woman, but the woman was dressed as a man, so it looked like three men, and the two groups sat at both ends of the dilapidated temple.
When Ning Yunxi and others entered, the most suitable place was the middle position. Xuan Shisi took out a thick cushion and spread it on the ground and said, "Miss Ning, please sit down."
Along the way, Ning Yunxi was taken care of in this way. She said no, but these people were still the same, so Ning Yunxi no longer refused.
After Ning Yunxi sat down, Xuan Shier quickly brought food and wine. The rest of the people were burning fire and the horses were fed. The division of labor was clear and the movements were very fast. He looked like he was not an ordinary person.
The other two groups of people watched it, and the five-man team looked more alert, while the three-man team was mostly curious.
With the fire, you can boil water and make porridge. Ning Yunxi drank two sips of strong wine and another bowl of rice porridge. Her whole body was warm and comfortable.
As for water and fire, although it seems to be using the water stone and the water in the water bag, it is actually the superpowers of Xuan Shi and Xuan Shi Si. Xuan Shi is the superpowers of fire, Xuan Shi Si is the water system, and the branches of the burning fire are derived from Xuan Shi Si's wooden superpowers. The three of them cooperated very well.
"This lady, I'll take the liberty to disturb me. I wonder if I can lend me a bowl of hot water. My brother is in poor health and I can't stand such a cold." The longer man in the trio came over with a little embarrassedly. As he said, afraid that the person would disagree, he took the initiative to say, "This is a little reward, and I hope the lady will not refuse." Then he took out a tael of silver.
If you buy a bowl of hot water for one tael of silver, there is no need to refuse such a business, "Xuan Shi, give it to him."
"Yes!" Xuan Shi took the silver, handed over a bowl of water, and said, "I'll give you the bowl."
"Thank you!" The man was very happy and walked back carefully with the water, and delivered the bowl of water to the mouth of the woman disguised as a man. The woman took a few sips and said, "Brother, I have enough of it, you can drink it."
They all came from the south, but they didn't expect that the north was so cold. Not only were they not prepared enough, but they were also unable to adapt. Even drinking a sip of hot water was a luxury.
"Brother is not thirsty, younger sister drink more."
The two brothers and sisters were deeply in love, but they ignored the person beside them. The man snorted coldly and looked at the two of them with a bit sinister look. However, the brother and sister didn't know anything and didn't pay attention at all. Ning Yunxi saw it accidentally, raised her eyebrows, but said nothing.
"Miss Ning, eat a cake, otherwise you will be hungry at night." Xuan Shi handed the hot cake that had just been baked to Ning Yunxi.
Ning Yunxi took a few bites and the taste was pretty good. "You guys eat too, and you can rest after breakfast." She always felt that the night would be uneasy, and she didn't know if it was an illusion.
"Um."
That night, five guards surrounded Ning Yunxi and rested. Ning Yunxi was lying on a blanket with one covered with her body. Although it was simple, it was the most comfortable one in the dilapidated temple. It made people look a little jealous, but no one said anything. Everyone seemed to fall asleep quickly.
But just as midnight was approaching, the man in the trio, who had been neglected, suddenly opened his eyes. He first looked around, as if confirming whether everyone was asleep. Seeing that everyone was closed, he quietly stood up and touched the place where the brother was not far away. He didn't know if he wanted to kill someone or be a thief.
In fact, while this person was moving, there were no less than ten people who woke up in the ruined temple. It was really interesting.
Ning Yunxi withdrew her gaze to look at the thief, but looked at another group of people in a very secretive way. She originally thought that those people were the so-called people in the martial arts world, but at that moment just now, she could say with certainty that those people were either assassins or killers. That kind of vigilance and murderous aura was not something that people in the martial arts world could have.
After a while, the thief seemed to have found what he wanted. While no one noticed it, he ran out of the ruined temple quickly. Except for the brother and sister who were unaware of it, the rest of the people regarded it as not seeing it and did not stop it.
In this way, about two quarters of an hour later, another five-person team also took action. They stood up quietly, then changed into black clothes, and rushed out of the ruined temple. I don’t know what they were going to do.
Ning Yunxi rolled her eyes speechlessly, and asked if she could sleep well.
Xuan Shi also whispered in a low voice: "Miss Ning, what should we do?" The guards were all awake at this time.
"Let Xuan Shiyi go and have a look." Xuan Shiyi is a earth-based organization and is relatively calm in doing things.
"yes."
Xuan Shiyi followed quietly. At this point, the ruined temple became completely quiet. Ning Yunxi closed her eyes and entered a shallow sleep state.
Xuan Shiyi followed the five people. About two quarters of an hour later, he actually followed a camp. There were not many people in the camp, about two hundred people, but there were many carriages. Xuan Shiyi looked at it for a while and then confirmed the other party's identity. He should have been escorting a small batch of food and grass to the front line, but he didn't know why these people were targeted by them.
Xuan Shiyi was a guard, but also a soldier. What's more, the one who was fighting on the front line was his master, so he would not let anyone take away this batch of food and grass. Even before the five people took action, they used their superpowers and terrain to capture all the five people.
"This superpower is really useful." Especially when he was doing traps and cover, Xuan Shiyi was quite excited. This was the first time he had fought against the enemy after he obtained the superpower. The effect was very significant. If he had no superpowers before, it would be difficult to fight with these five people.
Xuan Shiyi's superpower was only level one. After catching these five people, he was a little exhausted. After resting for a while, he dragged the five people back to the periphery of the ruined temple. After merging with Xuan Shiyi who was waiting there, he told the story.
Ning Yunxi slept pretty well this time, at least nothing happened in the middle of the night, but early in the morning, after the brother and sister woke up, the dilapidated temple became lively.
"My purse was lost. Who was it? Who stole my purse?" the brother shouted in panic. It seemed that the money he lost was also very important.
The little girl was also shocked and looked around. The first thing she saw was Ning Yunxi and her group, but Ning Yunxi ignored her at all and just ate breakfast quietly. The little girl was not too stupid. She finally found the problem: "Brother, that boy Hu Bin is gone. Did he steal your wallet?"
Hu Bin is their half-brother, but he is very unpopular and has to take it out, because after the great changes in their family, the only three of them were left. He wanted to get together and depend on each other for life, but he didn't expect that this kid was so vicious in his ill intentions.
"Several people, please disturb me. Do you know what you have found? Do you know when my younger brother left?" The elder brother almost immediately believed his sister's guess and asked immediately.
Ning Yunxi glanced at him and gave the answer unexpectedly: "Zi Shi." Now I go after him, I guess I can't catch up, unless the man stopped halfway.
"How do you know?" Before the elder brother could speak, the younger sister asked.
"I saw it." Except for the brother and sister, everyone saw it, there was nothing to hide about this matter.
"Did you see it? Did you see them stealing my elder brother's wallet?" the little girl asked in surprise.
"I saw it, but I don't know it was a purse." Ning Yunxi replied honestly.
When the brother and sister heard this, they didn't know how to react. Even Xuan Shi and others looked at Ning Yunxi with a strange look on their faces. Just forget it if you don't say it. Now it's so annoying!
"You, why are you talking now?" Sure enough, the little girl was so angry that she started to stamp her feet after she reacted.
Ning Yunxi curled her lips and said, "You are just asking now." She was a little careful when she was out and she dared to sleep so well. If she didn't learn a lesson, she might not know if she was killed in the future.
"You, you, you..." The little sister was so angry that she didn't know what to say. But the big brother gradually calmed down after panic and said in a deep voice: "Little sister, stop making trouble. Let's chase us now, maybe we can catch it back!"
"Hmph, brother, let's go!"
After seeing off the brother and sister, Xuan Shiyi and Xuan Shier dragged the five men in black in, and reported what happened last night again, including several more confessions.
"... They are all blue-level assassins from Yingke Tower. The mission this time is to kill all the soldiers of the grain transport team and then burn all the grain and grass. As for the hirers, they don't know." After Xuan Shier said that, he stood aside and waited for Ning Yunxi to speak.
"Take people with you, and then I will leave them to your master for handling." She has no intention of getting involved in such a national event.
"yes!"
During the last half day, everyone walked very smoothly, but when they reached Beili City, they were stopped outside the door because they had five people tied up and didn't look like some good people.
"Don't I look like a good person?" Ning Yunxi asked Xuan Shi and others speechlessly. Xuan Shi and others had a stiff face, and didn't know how to answer. In the end, Xuan Shi took out a token and silently handed it to the soldiers guarding the city. When the soldier saw the token, he was obviously stunned.
"Hello, sir, I have no eyes. Please forgive me!" The soldier saluted and said tremblingly.
"Can we go into the city?"
"Of course, of course, please, please!" That was the token of King Xuan. How dare he, a soldier, stop him? It's not that he is desperate.
After the group entered the city, they went straight to the General's Mansion, and then they were stopped again outside the General's Mansion, but this time they were not the guards, but a... girl?
"Where are you from? This is the General's Mansion. How can anyone enter easily?" The girl was wearing a red horse-riding suit, gorgeous and charming, looking just fourteen or fifteen years old.
Xuan Shi glanced at the girl, guessed the other party's identity, and said bluntly: "We are the guards of His Highness Xuan!"
Since King Xuan arrived in the northern border, he moved into the General's Mansion, which is Situ Yao's Mansion. The person in front of him was Situ Yue, the second lady of General Situ's Mansion.
"The King Xuan Guard? What proof do you have?" Situ Yue was stunned, but had no intention of letting go.
Xuan Shi didn't say anything nonsense and took out the sign directly. Situ Yue didn't know what she was thinking, but she wanted someone to show her, but Xuan Shi refused.
"It seems ok, but it can't be taken away." Their signs are all proof of identity. If the sign is in the right place, you must never leave your body. This is the rule.
"Hmph, do you know who I am?" Situ Yue was unhappy and looked at Xuan Shi with her nostrils.
Ning Yunxi wanted to laugh when she heard this. Such classic lines are so familiar.
"What are you laughing at? Are you laughing at Miss Ben?" Situ Yue was also a sharp-eyed person. Ning Yunxi just bent the corners of her mouth slightly and was discovered by her. But this is normal. Who made Ning Yunxi herself a girl who cannot be ignored?
"Miss, no matter who you are, we have proved our identity. I wonder if we can go in and meet the prince?" Xuan Shi spoke coldly, and at the same time, he stood sideways in front of Ning Yunxi. His attitude towards Situ Yue had become very cold.
"Rareless, how dare you talk to me like this?"
