Liver into a martial arts legend: starting with Embroidered Spring Blade

Chapter 56: Conspiracy on a Rainy Night! [Seeking monthly ticket for follow-up reading]

Jiang Xuan and the other three had already seen Zhou Huaian's wanted poster, so they naturally knew what he looked like.

The man in black holding an umbrella who entered the room at this moment was Zhou Huaian, whom they had been tracking for several months!

Jiang Xuan and the other three looked at each other, then went downstairs again and sat back in their seats.

"Oh, here comes another handsome young man!"

Seeing the handsome guy, Jin Xiangyu's eyes began to light up again. She hurried over to greet him, looked Zhou Huaian up and down, then turned back to look at Jiang Xuan, and chuckled softly, "Why are they all so handsome? I don't know who to choose!"

Having said that, she still politely asked, "Sir, are you here for a meal or to stay overnight?"

Zhou Huaian ignored her and swept his eyes over everyone in the inn, frowning slightly, as if he didn't expect there were so many people in the inn.

When he saw Jiang Xuan and the other three, his expression changed slightly, but quickly returned to normal. He turned to look at Qiu Moyan and the others, his expression slightly relaxed, and said with a smile: "Madam, please prepare a room for me. I don't need food for the time being. I have friends here."

As he said that, he walked towards Qiu Moyan and others.

“So they’re all in the same gang!”

Jin Xiangyu immediately lost interest and said casually, "The guest rooms are full. We can't accommodate you."

"Then don't."

Zhou Huaian waved his hand.

Jin Xiangyu snorted softly, not wanting to pay any more attention. She turned around and walked towards Jiang Xuan with a smile, pretending to be resentful and said, "Sir, it's late at night. Aren't you going upstairs to rest? I've been waiting for you for a long time."

Jiang Xuan patted her butt and said calmly, "Don't worry, go upstairs and wait for me. I'll be there soon."

"Oh, you're so bad!"

Jin Xiangyu quickly covered her butt and jumped away, looking shy, but she didn't stay there any longer. She went upstairs while hooking her finger charmingly: "Then I'll wash up and wait for you in the room, you better come quickly..."

"Slut!"

Qiu Moyan snorted softly, turned around and looked at Zhou Huaian, his expression slightly relaxed, and said, "Are you here?"

"Well, thank you for your hard work."

Zhou Huaian smiled and nodded, then glanced at the people around him and said, "This is not the place to talk, let's go upstairs and talk."

"it is good."

Hearing this, Qiu Moyan and the others all stood up and walked upstairs.

Only the bandits and Jiang Xuan and his four companions were left in the guest hall.

"Mr. Jia, Zhou Huaian is here. Do you want to take action tonight?" Lu Xiaochuan suggested in a low voice with excitement flashing in his eyes.

Jia Ting narrowed his eyes slightly, but did not answer. After a moment's silence, he looked at Jiang Xuan and asked, "Master Jiang, what do you think?"

Jiang Xuan whispered, "Lord Jia, Zhou Huaian is quite powerful, and with that gang of robbers, if we act rashly, we're probably no match for them. I think we should try to hold them back and wait for Lord Cao to lead his troops before we act cautiously."

"Yeah, that makes sense."

Jia Ting nodded and said, "Let's do this. Find a way to hold them back. The border is closed anyway, so they can't go anywhere. Don't bother fighting them. We'll follow them wherever they go."

Jiang Xuan nodded and suggested, "Then I'll go check on them tonight."

"Well, it's up to you." Jia Ting did not refuse.

……

Late at night, heavy rain suddenly fell in the originally calm desert.

The inn doesn't keep people there, but the rain does. Now everyone is trapped in the inn with nowhere to go.

The group of horse bandits were still drinking and chatting in the living room, but their voices were not loud, and it was obvious that they were plotting something.

at the same time.

In the largest guest room on the second floor, Zhou Huaian and others also gathered together under the cover of the sound of rain to discuss in low voices.

After some greetings and introductions, Qiu Moyan looked at Zhou Huaian and asked, "General Zhou, the people have been rescued. When can we take the children out of confinement?"

"The sooner the better, let's get out tonight!" Zhou Huaian said.

"How can we go in such heavy rain?"

He Hu frowned and said, "Besides, every place is closed now. There are wanted posters for you everywhere you go. Those lackeys from the East Factory must have recognized you. It won't be easy to get out."

"don’t worry."

Zhou Huaian waved his hand and said, "The reason I asked you to meet up at the Longmen Inn is because there is a secret passage here that allows you to go out without going through the checkpoint."

"what?"

"There is a secret passage?!" Everyone was immediately delighted.

"No wonder you asked us to meet here. Where is the secret passage?" Qiu Moyan asked.

Zhou Huaian shook his head: "I only know that there is a secret passage under the Dragon Gate Inn that leads directly to the outside of the pass. I think... only Jin Xiangyu knows where it is exactly."

"That slutty bitch?"

Qiu Moyan frowned: "Do you think she will tell us the location of the secret passage?"

Zhou Huaian nodded: "I have already inquired about it. Although this Longmen Inn is a black shop, as long as you abide by the rules here, it can also be a place to exchange interests."

"The innkeeper, Jin Xiangyu, is greedy for money. If we give her enough money, I think she will tell us where the secret passage is."

"It just so happens that it rained heavily tonight. We can use the rain as cover to sneak out through the secret passage. Those lackeys from the East Factory will never find us..."

"Not always."

Suddenly, an indifferent voice sounded from outside the window: "Besides, if you leave, what should I do?"

"Who?!"

Everyone was shocked.

Zhou Huaian immediately picked up the half-broken arrow on the table and shot it towards the window, but before the broken arrow reached the window, it was grasped by a white hand.

sigh~
A black shadow flashed, and a figure appeared in the room, holding a half-broken arrow in his hand. It was Jiang Xuan.

"It's you?!"

"A lackey of the East Factory!"

Zhou Huaian and others' expressions changed and they were about to take action immediately.

"Wait a minute!"

Qiu Moyan suddenly stretched out his arms and stopped everyone.

"Miss Qiu?"

Everyone looked at her in confusion.

Zhou Huaian said in a deep voice: "This man is a lackey of the imperial court. He has heard our secret conversation and must be silenced!"

"General Zhou!"

Qiu Moyan quickly said, "I know him. I saved someone last time thanks to his help."

"what?!"

Everyone was surprised.

Afterwards, after Qiu Moyan’s explanation, everyone finally understood why they had been able to rescue people so smoothly last time.

It turned out that Qiu Moyan and this person had known each other for a long time, and it was all thanks to this person who deliberately held back that day that he was able to succeed.

Although Zhou Huaian had his doubts, he chose to trust Qiu Moyan for the time being. He bowed to Jiang Xuan and said, "I see. Thank you for your help, brother. Zhou Huaian expresses his gratitude."

Jiang Xuan ignored him and looked at Qiu Moyan, saying calmly, "Miss Qiu, since you know that it was only with my help that you were able to successfully rescue someone last time, why do you want to just walk away now? I'm afraid that's a bit unfair."

Hearing this, Qiu Moyan frowned slightly and said, "Then what exactly do you want? Also, didn't you say you wouldn't help? Why..."

"I can't help it. I'm a kind-hearted person."

Jiang Xuan paused and continued, "Besides, since I was chosen by Cao Shaoqin to participate in this matter, it is no longer up to me whether to take action or not. Cao Shaoqin asked me to come here to die."

"I now have only two choices: either kill you and return to the capital to claim my reward, or join forces with you and become a wanted criminal of the imperial court."

"What do you think I should choose?"

Zhou Huaian said in a deep voice: "In that case, why don't you come out with us?"

"In today's world, the imperial court is corrupt, the eunuchs control the government, and persecute loyal officials. Why would you work for the eunuchs?"

Jiang Xuan said calmly, "I'm different from you. You have no worries, but I still have relatives alive. What will happen to them if I'm gone?"

"Besides, I don't want to wander around the world like you, living a dark and hidden life."

"Then what do you want?" Qiu Moyan asked with a frown.

Jiang Xuan's face was calm, his eyes slowly swept over everyone, and he asked, "Do you want to kill Cao Shaoqin?"
