The corpse shouted hoarsely,"Sesame seed cake!" Sesame seed cake!" He chased after them.
The beggar tripped on the ground and somersaulted. The corpse bent down and reached out to press his back. Little Beggar rolled to the side and ran again. The corpse couldn't stand up straight for a while. He stood up after a while. His legs were long and his steps were big. Although he was staggering, he was swaying like a drunkard. In just a dozen steps, he caught up with the beggar and grabbed the back of his neck.
"You…you stole my shaobing?" the corpse asked.”At this moment, how could the beggar dare to deny it? He could only nod his head. "You…you've already eaten?" the corpse asked again.”The beggar nodded again. The corpse stretched out his right hand and tore the beggar's clothes, revealing the skin on his chest and stomach. "Cut open your stomach and dig it out!" the corpse said.”The little beggar was scared out of his wits and said in a trembling voice,""I…I…I only took a bite.”
It turned out that Wu Daotong had been hit in the chest by Zhou Mu's palms and stabbed in the abdomen by the tall man's double hooks. He had fainted for a moment, but after a long time, he slowly woke up. Although his abdomen was a vital part, he was seriously injured and could not die for the time being. He could not forget that thing. Once he woke up, he found that the Golden Blade Stockade had left. He did not care about the serious injury in his abdomen and wanted to find the thing hidden in the sesame seed cake first.
He disguised himself as an old man selling pancakes and lived in seclusion in Hou Jianji. After living there for three years, it was safe and sound, but he couldn't find the original owner of that thing. When he heard the whistle, more than two hundred cavalry surrounded him. Although he didn't know that this group of bandits was coming for him, he finally realized that the situation was dangerous. In a hurry, there was nowhere to hide, so he immediately placed the item in the sesame seed cake. As soon as the tall man appeared, he stretched out his hand and said,"Hand it over!" Wu Daotong made a risky move and simply placed the sesame seed cake into his hands. As expected, the tall man was furious and threw the sesame seed cake away.
After Wu Daotong woke up from his serious injuries, he couldn't recognize that the thing was hidden in the sesame seed cake. He tore it open one by one to look for it, but there was no trace of it. Finally, he caught the little beggar. He thought that this Huanghua was so hungry that he would probably swallow the cake and food into his stomach, so he wanted to cut open his stomach to get the food. Unable to find a sharp blade, he gritted his teeth and pulled out a steel hook from his stomach. He turned the hook upside down and slashed at the beggar's stomach.
When the steel hook was pulled out of his abdomen, he felt a sharp pain. Blood gushed out of his wound. Although the hook had touched the little beggar's stomach, his left hand suddenly lost its strength. He loosened his fingers and the little beggar fell to the ground. Wu Daotong's right hand sent out the steel hook, but it stabbed into nothing. Wu Daotong fell to the ground with his head facing the sky. His feet stood up a few times before he was truly dead.
The beggar fell onto him and struggled to get up. He turned around and ran. He had been so frightened that he had only taken a few steps forward when his legs and knees were sore. He somersaulted and fainted, but his right hand was still firmly holding onto the sesame seed cake that he had only taken a bite of.
Not far away, six people were standing in a hidden place, watching the scene in front of them.
One of the more honest and muscular young men respectfully asked a young man in a snow-white robe,"Young Master, now that things have happened, should we?”As that person spoke, a trace of ruthlessness flashed in his eyes.
"No need! Continue watching! We only need to pay attention to these things. When they are singing, don't you like to watch others sing? Haha!" The youth in luxurious clothes smiled and said.
That's right, the six people hiding in this hidden place were Shi Zhongyu, Yi Xiren, and the others. That day, after Feng Qing Yang had dealt with that group of blind bandits, they had been hurrying day and night towards the Kaifeng Prefecture. Because Shi Zhongyu knew that the Darksteel Token incident would happen here, they had already set up camp nearby. These few days, Young Master Shi Zhongyu had wanted to visit the ancient brothels. However, after thinking about it, he was afraid that he would be delayed. Thus, he endured it and continued to wait there.
As expected, the heavens paid off. The scenes in front of him were just like those in Elder Jin's novels.
"It seems that Father and Mother are coming as well.”Shi Zhongyu muttered.
The faint moonlight shone on Wu Daotong's corpse and slowly moved to the little beggar's body. The faint sound of hooves could be heard from the southeast corner.
This time, the sound of hooves came very quickly. Just as he heard the sound, it was already close. The residents of Hou Jianji were already frightened by the twang of a bow. Hearing the sound of horse hooves in the quiet night, they couldn't help but tremble in fear, hiding in their blankets and trembling. But this time, there were only two horses, and they didn't whistle.
The two horses looked very strange. One was a famous steed with black fur from head to tail, but its four hooves were white. The other horse had black hooves and was snow-white. It was called the 'Black Hoofed Jade Hare' in the Horse Manual and was extremely rare in the Central Plains.
A white-clothed woman was riding on the white horse. If it weren't for the red flower on her temples and the scarlet ribbon around her waist, she would have looked like she was in mourning. A white-sheathed longsword hung on the red ribbon. The passenger on the black horse was a middle-aged man dressed in black. The longsword tied to his waist was also a black scabbard. Two horses galloped side by side.
In an instant, both of them saw Wu Daotong's corpse and the destroyed household items on the ground. They exclaimed in unison,"Eh?"
The black-robed man swung his horsewhip and wrapped it around the neck of Wu Daotong's corpse. The horsewhip was lifted a few feet, and the moonlight shone on the corpse's face. "It's Wu Daotong!" the woman said. Looks like An Jindao has succeeded." The man shook his whip and threw the corpse to the side of the road.""Wu Daotong died not long ago, and the blood on his wound hasn't coagulated yet.”The woman nodded.
The two horses galloped west side by side. Eight iron hooves landed on the bluestone floor, and the sound of hooves clattered like a galloping horse. The front and back hooves of the two horses rose and fell at the same time. They were extremely neat and beautiful. No matter who saw them, they would think that these two horses had been trained for a long time. Therefore, when they galloped, there was no difference.
The two horses ran faster and faster. Once they passed the suburbs of Bianliang City, the road was narrow and they could not ride two horses at the same time. The woman reined in her horse and let the man go first. The man turned his head and smiled. He spurred his horse forward, and the woman followed behind.
The two horses had extraordinary strength. According to the circumstances of Wu Daotong's death, they should have caught up with the Golden Blade Stockade's troops by now, but there was no trace of them. They didn't know that although Wu Daotong had died not long ago, the people of the Golden Saber Stockade had already left.
They rushed for more than two hours without stopping. The two dismounted and let their horses rest for a while. They mounted and set off again. When it was almost dawn, they suddenly saw a few fires rising in the distant wilderness. The two of them looked at each other and smiled, then jumped off their horses at the same time. The woman took the reins from the man's hands and tied the two horses to the trunk of a big tree. The two of them used light body martial arts and ran towards the fire.
These fires seemed to be not far from the plains, but they were actually several miles apart. The two of them glided across the grass like a gust of wind. As they approached, they saw a large group of people surrounding a dozen fires. They could faintly hear the sound of snoring coming from one place and the other. Everyone was holding bowls and eating noodles. The two of them had wanted to spy first, but there was no place to hide in the open land. They were about a dozen feet away from this group of people, so they slowed down their pace and approached side by side.
"Who is it?" someone in the crowd shouted. What do you do?"
The man took a step forward and cupped his fists."Is Stronghold Chieftain An not here? Which friend is here?"
The short elder Zhou Mu looked up and saw a man and a woman, one black and one white, standing side by side under the light of the fire. Both of them were middle-aged. The man was handsome, and the woman was elegant. Her clothes fluttered in the wind, and a long sword hung from her waist.
Zhou Mu's heart skipped a beat. Then, he thought of the two of them. He straightened his back and stood up. He cupped his fists and said,"So it's the Jiangnan Xuansu Manor's Manor Master Shi and his wife!”Then he shouted,"Brothers, quickly get up and salute. These two are the mighty Shi Manor Lord and his wife."”The group of men suddenly stood up and bowed slightly. Zhou Mu muttered to himself," Shi Qing, Min Rou, and her husband have no enmity with our Golden Blade Stockade. I don't know what they're here for so early in the morning. Could it be because of this?"”He looked around and saw no one else."Although I heard that the couple's swordsmanship is excellent, a strong man can't win against a large number of people. Why should I be afraid of him?”
