Wuxia: I Know a Little Too Many of Them

Three days later.

Outside the west gate of Guijun County.

The sun is rising, its rays are shining brightly on the river, and the willow shadows are swaying.

Along the moat, there were crowds of people and it was very lively.

Beside one of the large and luxurious carriages, a group of people were saying goodbye, adding a bit of sadness.

A few feet ahead of the carriage, Chu Tang stopped on horseback with a serious look on his face. From time to time he glanced at the farewell people and then looked at the sky, feeling a little impatient.

Today is the day when Su Hong's daughter sets off for Qingcheng.

In three days, everything that needs to be prepared is ready.

In order to increase his momentum, Su Hong asked Chu Tang to bring all the detectives from his squad in the county government.

Chu Tang couldn't refuse the offer, so he could only let them go on the road together.

In fact, Chu Tang was not willing to take so many people on the road. He felt that too many people would be a burden.

If possible, he would even be willing to take Su Hong's daughter straight to Qingcheng with one person and one horse.

However, it is said that Su Hong's daughter Su Qingyue has been in poor health since she was a child and cannot practice martial arts. She is just an ordinary person and has always been soft and weak. Therefore, Su Hong sent her to Wutong Academy in Qingcheng to study and practice.

No, when she went out, she couldn't travel lightly. Not only did she have to take a slow carriage, she also had to load a large cart of luggage, and the horse couldn't even run.

In addition, there is a maid accompanying her to take care of her daily life.

This is not the rhythm of rushing. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is going out for fun!

For this reason, Chu Tang had to bring his own troops.

At least there are more people, and some people can be assigned to help take care of Miss Su’s daily life!

Chu Tang was a little angry about this.

Originally, this mission was not a smooth one, but now I saw a large group of people. They were so conspicuous that they were a big target. I didn’t know what might happen along the way.

Furthermore, he also had some objections to the delicate Miss Su.

But he hadn't seen each other before, and today was the first time.

The so-called meeting means just meeting such a person, but not the face.

Just because even if she said goodbye to her father now, Miss Su, who was dressed in white, had her face covered with a layer of white gauze due to the presence of outsiders, so that no one could see her face.

She is completely like a lady, and she doesn't have the coolness of a daughter of the world at all.

However, her maid Xiaoyou came to take over things with him these days, and the two of them had a little friendship.

As a personal maid, Xiaoyou was standing next to Su Qingyue who was like a weak willow supporting the wind, gently supporting her young lady with both hands, as if she was afraid that she would be blown away by a gust of wind.

Maid Xiao You looks about fourteen or fifteen years old, with a round face. She looks very lucky, but she does things very quickly.

As for Su Hong's daughter Su Qingyue, Chu Tang found out that she was only sixteen years old this year and was still a little girl.

Looking at her figure, she is petite and frail, so the rumors that she is in poor health are not groundless.

Today, only her father came to see her off. After the two talked for a while, the maid Xiaoyou helped her get into the carriage.

After Su Hong saw his daughter behind the curtain of the carriage as a child, he walked towards Chu Tang in front of him.

Upon seeing this, Chu Tang quickly dismounted.

"Boss Chu, I'll leave this trip to you!" As soon as he arrived, Su Hong gave Chu Tang some face and bowed to him.

After Chu Tang returned the courtesy, he said: "You must do your best when it comes to your responsibilities!"

Su Hong thanked him again, pointed at the sky, and said, "It's getting late, so you can set off."

Chu Tang nodded, said "take care", got on his horse, and took the lead in crossing the moat.

The carriage started slowly and followed.

Outside the city gate, Su Hong stood in the morning sun and did not move for a long time until the group of people disappeared.

Less than a mile out of the city, Chu Tang rode up to Zhou Xiang, who was also riding slowly, and said in a deep voice: "Brother Zhou, I'm sorry to trouble you, just do what we agreed before!"

"Okay!" Zhou Xiang agreed, called the two catchers, said goodbye to Chu Tang, and galloped forward, and soon disappeared.

Chu Tang then pulled the horse's head back, came to the side of the carriage, slowed down, and walked parallel to the carriage.

There were several riders and horses in front and behind the carriage, acting as front and rear guards.

On this trip, including Chu Tang, a total of fifteen police officers were dispatched.

Among them, there are four warriors from the third realm. In addition to Wu Yi and Xu Feng, there are also two other warriors from the fourth realm of their own class.

In addition, there are ten second-level agents who are accompanying them as odd jobs.

To be on the safe side, Chu Tang arranged for Zhou Xiang to lead two second-level detectives as vanguards to explore the road ahead.

The two parties agreed to be within half an hour's journey as a response.

Once something happens or something unusual happens in front, Zhou Xiang will send someone to report it so that the people behind him can be prepared.

The reason why Zhou Xiang was assigned this important task was because after spending time with him, Chu Tang found that he was extremely shrewd, cautious, and flexible, making him the perfect candidate to explore the road.

In order to ensure safety, Chu Tang transplanted the tactics he used in Shixian County to this team——

Hidden weapons, drugs, etc., nothing is missing.

In fact, he even brought a lot of Pogang Crossbow arrows. It would not be an exaggeration to say that he was armed to the teeth.

When Chu Tang mentioned these requirements to Su Hong, the other party was not only surprised, but also satisfied. Without saying a word, they all agreed!

The arsenal was insufficiently prepared for some items, so Su Hong also ordered people to go outside to purchase them. In short, he responded to all requests.

He also fought hard for the safety of his daughter.

Even with so many preparations, Chu Tang was still not at ease and was cautious enough to send Zhou Xiang out to explore the way.

And he stayed with the carriage every step of the way, acting as a guard.

If his status hadn't allowed him to do so, he would have even wanted to sit in the carriage and be the personal bodyguard of the eldest lady of the Su family.

Not to mention Chu Tang carefully looking around, but the scene inside the carriage——

The maid Xiaoyou's round face was filled with concern as she helped her young lady take off her veil and said, "Miss, it's too hot. I'll help you put away the veil and put it back on when you want to see people."

The veil was taken off, revealing a beautiful face that could be both angry and happy.

The eldest daughter of the Su family has eyes as bright as a spring, eyebrows like mountains, a nose like a flying peak, a mouth like a cherry, and skin like jade. Every part is just right, and together they create a face as beautiful as a fairy.

But at this moment, her sickly white skin showed a trace of fatigue, and her petite body leaned on the beautiful purple backrest of the carriage.

Xiaoyou said distressedly: "Miss, are you feeling unwell again? Do you want to take medicine?"

Su Qingyue shook her head slightly, lightly opened her red lips, and said, "No, I'm just a little sad to say goodbye to my father and mother."

Her voice is like an oriole, clear and sweet.

But if you listen carefully, you can find some flaws in it.

This is a truly sick beauty!

After picking up the beauty fan that had been prepared in the carriage and fanning her little house with a light breeze, Xiaoyou said excitedly: "Miss, you also met the head of our county government, Mr. Chu, right now, how about it?" I told you that he is very handsome and not a tough guy, but you still don’t believe me!"

Su Qingyue looked calm and said, "I'm in such a hurry that I don't have time to see more."

Xiaoyou pursed his lips and said, "He is right outside. How about I lift the curtain so you can see clearly?"

"Don't!" Su Qingyue quickly stopped her, a trace of uneasiness appeared on her pretty face, "How can a girl stare at a man?"

Xiaoyou disagreed: "What's the matter? Women who practice martial arts still walk around the world and compete with men as usual?"

Su Qingyue said angrily: "Are we women practicing martial arts?"

"I am!" Xiaoyou patted her chest, "I have practiced breathing!"

Su Qingyue couldn't laugh or cry: "You only have one level of cultivation and are at the bottom of the martial arts world. How dare you say that?"

Xiaoyou was unconvinced: "Don't think Yi Jie is not a warrior! If anyone dares to offend you, young lady, I will beat him up too!"

"You are said to be fat, but are you really out of breath?" Su Qingyue rolled her eyes with bright and dark eyes.

"Miss, you said I'm fat again!" Xiaoyou said with an aggrieved smile, "Miss, it's all your fault! Madam asked someone to make meat soup for you to make up for the soup. You couldn't eat it, so you asked me to help you eat it! I don't want to be fat. It’s so difficult!”

Su Qingyue stretched out her weak and weak hands, and pinched the maid's fleshy face with her slender fingers, and said with a chuckle: "You are greedy, and you blame me instead?"

Xiaoyou rubbed his round face, snorted and said, "I will never help you eat meat or soup again!"

Su Qingyue smiled sweetly and touched the other person's head again.

The two grew up together since childhood and went together wherever they went. Although they were master and servant, their relationship was very deep.

Xiaoyou glanced around and suddenly said: "Miss, I overheard the master and his wife mentioning Bantou Chu."

"Huh?" Su Qingyue's beautiful face showed confusion.

Xiaoyou said: "The master said that Captain Chu is an unparalleled genius!"

Su Qingyue nodded slightly, her beautiful eyes shining, and said: "A twenty-year-old Fourth Realm warrior can indeed be described as a genius."

"Miss, do you think so too?" Xiaoyou was excited.

"What are you excited about? It's not about you!"

Xiao You said: "Miss, you read a lot and are well-informed. You say he is a genius, so there is no doubt about it. Miss, what do you think of him?"

"What's going on?" Su Qingyue was stunned.

"What do you think of Bantou Chu?" Xiao You said bluntly.

Su Qingyue frowned slightly, as if the clear lake water was wrinkled. She stared at Xiaoyou and asked, "Xiaoyou, did you hear what my father said?"

Xiaoyou was a little frightened and said uneasily: "The master and his wife said that Captain Chu is suitable to be the son-in-law of the Su family..."

"What!" Su Qingyue was stunned at first, then anxious and embarrassed, with a bit of resentment on her pale face, "What the hell! My father actually... How is it possible! Me... It's impossible for me and him of!"

"Miss, don't be impatient. Don't be so impatient! The master just mentioned it, and he didn't really want you to do anything. We are not in a hurry, we are not in a hurry." Xiaoyou took his young lady's tender hand and said Touch and comfort.

Su Qingyue was in a panic, and her face was also anxious. Although she was not as pitiful as a pear blossom in the rain, she had the fragility of a lotus flower that could not withstand the cool breeze, making people want to hug her and comfort her.

Xiaoyou was well aware of his young lady's temperament, so he had no choice but to comfort her and did not dare to irritate her any more.

After a long while, Su Qingyue calmed down, her brows were still filled with worry, and she said in embarrassment: "How come my father has such bad ideas!"

Xiaoyou helped explain: "The master may want to find a good man who can protect the young lady's life."

"I..." Su Qingyue shook her head, "Xiaoyou, you know, I have a sweetheart!"

Xiaoyou smiled bitterly and said, "Miss, you're not my sweetheart, I'm just admiring you."

"Anyway, you can't listen to what my father says!" Su Qingyue said angrily.

Xiaoyou nodded repeatedly: "Okay, okay! If you don't listen, you won't listen. Isn't it okay for us to have contact with Captain Chu? But he is really handsome, not inferior to your so-called sweetheart. What's more, he is highly skilled in martial arts. When he arrived in Qingcheng, many outstanding women fell in love with him."

"None of my business!" Su Qingyue's small nose moved slightly and she snorted coldly.

"Don't regret it!" Xiaoyou said without politeness.

"I'm so sorry for you!" Su Qingyue patted her on the head, "Other people don't know, so you still don't know my situation? I can't practice martial arts, and being too involved with martial artists will be of no benefit to me or him!"

Xiaoyou thought of her young lady's body and felt sad, but she didn't dare to show it, so she had to comfort her: "Miss, you are still young and there is still hope. Haven't you been looking for a famous doctor to find a magic medicine for you? One day, you will definitely be able to Cure you!"

"Xiaoyou, you are so kind!" Su Qingyue held the maid's hand tightly, "I know you are just comforting me, but I feel much better."

"Miss, I..."

"Okay! You don't need to say anything. Xiaoyou, I want to read a book. Take out that book of poems and read it to me." Su Qingyue changed the topic.

Xiaoyou opened the small box next to him and took out a book that looked like he had been reading it for a long time. He muttered: "Miss, how many times have you read this lousy poem, are you still not tired of it?"

Su Qingyue carefully opened the book and said softly: "This is Mr. Qin's poem. You will never get tired of it no matter how many times you read it."

As he spoke, his voice faded away, lost in the poetry.

Seeing this, Xiaoyou shook his head and said nothing.

The carriage moved forward.

Xiaoyou leaned inside the carriage, shaking his body, gradually becoming sleepy and confused, not knowing why.

I don’t know how long I walked, but suddenly, the carriage stopped and the people in the carriage leaned forward!

Xiaoyou suddenly woke up.

The carriage has stopped!

"What's going on?" Su Qingyue put down the collection of poems gently, her face full of doubts.

"I'll go ask!" Xiaoyou wanted to lift the door curtain and lean out.

"Wait!" Su Qingyue stopped Xiaoyou's movement and pointed at her little face, "Veil!"

Xiaoyou reacted, hurriedly found the veil, helped her lady put it on, then opened the door curtain and jumped out of the car.

Su Qingyue was the only one left in the car waiting quietly.

Not long after, Xiaoyou jumped on the carriage again and got in, looking slightly panicked.

"Xiaoyou, what happened?" Su Qingyue asked.

She was awake all the way. They had only traveled for more than an hour, and they probably only walked less than thirty miles. There was no reason to stop the car before it was time to stay in Dajian.

Xiaoyou said worriedly: "Miss, Captain Chu told me that the people who went to explore the road came to report that someone was robbing a few miles ahead and robbing an escort agency."

"Robbery on official roads?" Su Qingyue was surprised, her bright eyes full of disbelief, "Are they crazy?!"

To commit robbery in broad daylight on an official road less than thirty miles away from the county town, you have to be very brave to do it!

In other words, how poor do you have to be to take such a risky move!

No matter how you look at it, this is unusual.
