"It doesn't matter if we kill him or not …" They burned my home... Killed my parents-in-law... I was just left behind... I wonder why? " Aunt Li Yun said.

"So your husband, Qin Zhao, is not at the scene?" Wu Yuxue said.

"He's not here. He went on a business trip." Aunt Li Yun said.

"Do you know what kind of business trip it is?" Wu Yuxue said.

"Well," Aunt Li Yun thought about it for a moment, then nodded and said, "I remember now, I heard they're going to escort the relief money …"

Wu Yuxue was slightly surprised. "Money for disaster relief?"

Li Yun shook her head and said, "I'm not sure about the details. I only heard that he said that he had donated a lot of silver from several southern provinces. In addition, he had also received a lot of silver from the capital. "All the yamen runners have been dispatched, and my husband, Qin Zhe, is in charge. He said that he will be sent to all the provinces and counties of northern Anhui province, and will distribute it to those prefectures and counties that have suffered the most …"

"That's right." Wu Yuxue almost could not hold her anger in as she said coldly, "That's why they chose to keep you alive."

Hong Ye was stunned and said, "Why …" "What?"

Wu Yuxue said, "Because they want you to come and exchange the money for the disaster relief."

"Ah …" So that's how it is … What a fool I am... I didn't remember at all. " "So, they didn't kill my husband?" "Of course," I said. Wu Yuxue said coldly, "With Qin Zhao dead, they have no target to extort. How hateful."

Saying that, he suddenly stood up, scaring Li Hong who was beside him, and asked: "Mr. Wu, you …?"

Wu Yuxue shook her head and sat down.

This matter could not be rushed. It had already been proven that Fourth Young Lady Yun, the expert of the underworld who resided in Hangzhou, was a person who was in cahoots with Hu, Guo, and the others.

Hu and Guo were obviously related to the eighth grandfather as well. This way, the identity of this eighth grandfather could not help but arouse suspicion.

It was not easy to be certain that the Eighth Lord was their leader because of this speculation. However, the subtle connection between them was worth pondering over.

"Mr. Wu." Li Hong Shi's eyes flickered with tears and said, "What should I do now? Where should I go? "

Aunt Li Hong's words couldn't help but cause Wu Yu Xue to be shocked.

This was a problem. Just now, it was an angry and kind way of saving others. Truly, that was a problem. Now that she was saved, where should he place her?

"You … "Where is my home?" Wu Yuxue asked.

"Home …" When she mentioned home, the little woman couldn't help but tear up and say, "Didn't I just say that I don't have a home anymore …" They killed my family and burned my house... I don't have a home. "

Wu Yuxue thought for a while and asked, "Where is your family?"

Aunt Li Hong sighed, closed her eyes sadly, shook her head and said: "My parents are far away … … In the Nangong Palace... "Father is dead, and mother is still sick. I can't go back at this time."

Besides, she's a single young woman, and it's not like you can tell her where to go even though she's so far away, not to mention that the underworld isn't calm at all.

She was a target of the underworld, and now that she couldn't dodge in time, how could she expose her face?

What if the people under Fourth Miss Yun found out? How could they possibly survive?

Thinking about it this way, there were indeed a lot of questions, but just like how he thought, he was still stuck between a rock and a hard place.

As Li Hong Wu thought of this, she buried her face in her hands again and sobbed.

Wu Yuxue said, "Don't cry anymore. We can't go back for the time being. We have to think of a way …" As long as your husband is still alive, you're not afraid at all. Have you practiced martial arts before? "

"A little." "My father was a bodyguard earlier on. When he was young, he practiced using a floral knife, walking on quincuncial piles, and so on. After he got married, Qin Zhe taught me how to fly darts."

"That's good enough." Wu Yuxue said, "With your current condition, it is indeed not appropriate for you to walk around outside. How about this, I have a new friend in the Ning Country's estate, his surname is Bao, and he has a large mansion, his house is very large, I'll tell him about it, you can stay with him for the time being. While you wait for your husband's news, you take care of yourself as well. Is that okay with you? "

Hearing this, Aunt Li was naturally happy, good, and continuously expressed her gratitude.

Wu Yuxue thought that there really was no other way.

After a moment of rest, Li Hong Shi's spirit was uplifted. Since there was no enemy in front of her, she could advance and retreat with ease. She was led by Wu Yu Xue to the home of the dwarf Vajra Pak Yu.

Bao Yu was indeed surprised, but after being introduced by Wu Yuxue, she agreed without hesitation.

Baoyu had a lot of women, and at that time, his wife, Madam Feng, accompanied Aunt Hong to the back to bathe and change clothes. They had their own arrangements.

Inside the house, Bao Yu cautiously asked Wu Yuxue: "Brother, your business is my business. Even at the cost of his life, he had nothing to say. "There are only a few words that I want you to understand …"

"Please go ahead!" Wu Yuxue said.

"The Young Lady Yun Si that you mentioned just now." Bao Yu's voice suddenly became soft and said, "Brother, I don't think you really understand this woman …" But someone not to be trifled with! "

Wu Yuxue asked without batting an eyelid, "How is it not easy to provoke?"

Bao Yu, that cheerful person, suddenly became gloomy when she mentioned Fourth Miss Yun. She frowned with a cold face and kept blinking her eyes.

"This woman is a famous Infernal King. She killed people and set fires. Furthermore … She's got a lot of power, from Zhejiang to Jiangsu, including our province of Anhui. Whoever offends her will not have much luck. "

Chuckling, Bao Yu puffed out her chest and said: "Of course, brother, don't misunderstand. You think I'm afraid of her just because I said that. "In fact, we've never met, so it's not really a grudge …"

Wu Yuxue smiled and said, "But from today onwards, I'm afraid there will be a conflict between you two.

Bao Yu's expression changed slightly as he laughed heartily. He then picked up a cup of tea and started gulping down the tea. "I've decided on Shen'er."

Wu Yuxue saw this and knew what was going on. She looked at him and said, "You don't need to care about this matter. It's still too late to regret it. No third person knows that this woman is hiding in your house right now. "

Bao Yu lightly sighed, his face was covered in sweat as he said with a wry smile: "Brother Wu, you have really looked down on me, Bao Yu, I am really that timid. As long as you take care of old brother, I will do the same as you take care of the Sword Mountain and Sword Forest. "

Wu Yuxue said with a smile, "If you really have this intention, it's not in vain. Since I have already interfered in this matter, I cannot allow you to be implicated. Aunt Li Hong is just a pitiful woman, you and I are both chivalrous men in martial arts, we cannot just sit by and watch. You might as well send someone to secretly investigate Qin Zhao's whereabouts, so that he and his wife can reunite as soon as possible, so that they don't have to worry about it anymore. "

Bao Yu nodded and said: "That's good, I will send someone to Hangzhou early tomorrow to investigate this matter." No matter how well-informed Fourth Miss Yun is, she would never have thought that Qin Zhao's wife would be with me … However, it's best to be careful in everything you do. "

Wu Yuxue thought of the Eighth Lord, Guo and Hu; thus, she tried to ask for Bao Yu's opinion. Unexpectedly, Bao Yu had not heard of them at all.

Wu Yuxue also explained further.

This Bao Yu could be considered a character in the Ning Guo Manor. He was rich, but also had some sense of loyalty. He had his wife, Aunt Li, to protect Qin Zhao, so he was the most appropriate person to deal with.

And because he had a good relationship with the government, he would be able to predict what would happen to Qin Zhao and the relief payments. On one hand, it would make it easier for Hong Shi and his wife to reunite as soon as possible. On the other hand, it would allow them to take advantage of the calamity to understand the movements of the bandits and to come up with a countermeasure.

It was already late at night, so the two of them chatted about something else. Wu Yuxue then got up and bid them farewell.

When he returned to the inn and realized that the Eighth Lord had still not turned back, he was less concerned.

When he returned to his room, he was surprised to find that his room was lit. He clearly remembered that when he left with the Eighth Lord, it was not even dark, and there was no need to light the lamp.

However, he immediately solved this mystery.

It was because a faint shadow of a young girl could be seen on the side of the window — Lady Han's beautiful figure.

Wu Yu Xue's heart skipped a beat. She thought to herself that tonight wasn't an appointed time to study with her, so why did she come here earlier?

He took a step forward and lightly knocked on the door.

"You're back?" Miss Han asked.

Then the door opened, and Miss Han stood there with a coquettish smile.

Wu Yuxue was clad in a light purple dress that was almost trailing on the ground. She wore a green cape with jet-black hair, but what surprised her was that she actually tied a long sword behind her back. Her long sword's tail hung down.

"Sorry, I came in myself. You won't blame me, right?" She lightly rolled her eyes and said after blinking, "I've come to bid you farewell."

Wu Yuxue said, "You're leaving?"

Closing the door, they sat down in succession. Lady Han nodded slightly and picked up the teacup to take a sip.

"Maybe I don't have a life to read." She smiled slightly and said, "It was so easy to find such a good teacher like you, and then … However, perhaps I will be back very soon, and there will be a chance for me in the future. "

"Where are you going? "Why are you in such a hurry?" Wu Yuxue asked.

"I'm sorry, I can't tell you." Miss Han said.

Smiling, she winked playfully and said, "It's not far. If it goes well, I'll be back in a few days." Why do you ask? Hm? That's right! Why don't you come with me? "How about it?"

Wu Yuxue said, "I don't even know where to go, how can I go with you? You only said that. "

Lady Han smiled but didn't continue.

Wu Yuxue's sharp eyes swept across her and said slowly, "It must be very important for you to do it yourself."

"Not necessarily." Miss Feng said, "Just like every time I come to your place, is that a very important matter?"

"It's not the same." Wu Yuxue said.

"Oh, I see. You probably found out I was carrying a sword, but?" Miss Han said.

"That's right." Wu Yuxue said: "This proves that you are going to use force, and it is hard not to kill people."

"I don't easily kill people," Lady Han said.

"However, if you wish to kill them, then don't show any mercy." Wu Yuxue said.

When she heard this, Miss Han couldn't help but laugh. She looked at him and said, "You know me quite well. You seem to have socialized a lot in the past two days." Where did you go just now? "

Wu Yuxue glanced at her but did not reply.

Miss Han said, "I forgot again. I won't ask you. "I know that you have made quite a few new friends recently, some old and some young. You seem to have made quite a lot of friends."

Wu Yuxue was stunned.

Miss Han hurriedly explained herself, "Don't misunderstand. I'm not following you in the dark, I'm just guessing. "Just like this person …"

As he said "this one", he pointed at the house of the eighth grandfather with a slim jade stick.

"The Eighth Lord?" Wu Yuxue asked.

Miss Han lightly raised an eyebrow and said disdainfully, "Whoever cares if he's the eighth or ninth grandfather, this old thing is very strange." I suggest that you ignore him. "

"Why?" Wu Yuxue wanted to hear more and said, "You know him too?"

Miss Han shook her head and said coldly, "This person is sneaky. He's a mysterious person …" You should pay more attention to him. "On the surface, he looks like a businessman, but I think he has other plans. Maybe he —"

As he spoke to here, he suddenly stopped.

Wu Yuxue was alarmed at the same time. It seemed as if there was a strange sound coming from the roof, like the footsteps of a night walker. However, the sound was too soft, and it was hard to hear without paying special attention.

Miss Han reacted really fast.

Before Wu Yuxue could say anything, she waved her hand and turned out the light. At the same time, her left hand pushed out and the window opened where her palm hit.

At this moment, Miss Han's body had already shot out like a large bird.

Wu Yuxue originally wanted to go out and investigate, but seeing that Han Yunxi had already left, she didn't have to do anything else.

He knew that Miss Han had excellent lightness skills. With her out, this person would most likely not be able to escape her pursuit if someone was out watching.

Through the open window, he watched Han Yunxi's movements as she leapt forward. It was such a quick movement technique.

The moment his body moved, he pulled himself up. Next, he did an ingenious somersault, like a fallen leaf in a gale. With a poof of his sleeves, he was already on the roof.

It was dark in the house, but the yard was lit by the moonlight, and the night walker could not escape.

Wu Yuxue quietly waited for her return. Wu Yuxue was in awe.

Wu Yuxue ignited her spark and reignited the lamp, only to discover that Han Yunxi's expression was extremely cold. She silently sat down.

"Did you find anything?" Wu Yuxue asked with concern.

"He slipped away." Lady Han raised her head and looked at him. "Too fast. I didn't see him clearly. I only saw him wearing a large set of clothes."
