Concubine Chongxi: Binding the Medicine Jar to the Master

Chapter 195 Mo Li's amazing skill, subduing bandits

Silent.

Everyone seemed to be dumb, their mouths were all open, and their eyes were as big as loquats.

A piece of snow covered the branches fell, and with a soft sound, Mo Li moved his fingers lightly, and the silver thread as thin as fetal hair picked up the two chess pieces on the snow, and slid them back into the sleeves like strings of beads.

Slowly said: "If you give up such meaningless rebellion, you are willing to obey my orders, and I will cover you and lurk in Luoyi City. The fifteenth day of next month will be the time for you to make great contributions. After that, I would like to add officials Those who enter the rank will be promoted to rank, and those who do not want to receive a generous reward and return home."

These words, to these hopeless people, were like rain after a long drought. Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, but did they know whether it was rain or poisonous rain?
No one could believe it.

Mo Li smiled lightly: "I think you are familiar with the rumors about me, so you should also know that I don't like to lie, and I will never break my word. I found you, and I want to use your strength. You will definitely get the reward you deserve. Wouldn’t it be much better than your current situation?”

Bandits and reckless people are already imminent, and in this situation, they are even more tempted.

Someone couldn't hold back, and eagerly asked: "Really, really? You really didn't lie to us, Mr. Zhou?" After asking, the bandit leader gave him a blank look, and he had to shut up resentfully.

"Give me peace!" The boss waved a big knife, and when everyone shut up, he roared in a rough voice: "Zhou Shizi, don't think us rough people are easy to bully! The royal affairs are not meddled by us rough people!" Yes, we just want to save our lives now, and money is the best! Let me explain exactly what you want our brothers to do!"

"Since I tell you the truth, please take a step to speak." The waves were calm.

Everyone watched the two people walking together under the tree, discussing something in whispers, and couldn't help whispering.

Baili Jiuge is not worried at all. On the way here, Mo Li has already expressed his thoughts and made arrangements. Since today's trip is going directly to Huanglong, I believe these bandits Caomang will definitely agree to work !
Not long after, the two men finished their discussion, and Mo Li returned to Baili Jiuge with a smile as light as water.

And the bandit leader said to his subordinates: "We have no other way out, why not be loyal to the crown prince and take a gamble! But—"

The conversation changed, and he shouted: "Zhou Shizi, we rough people don't read martial arts, if your martial arts can pass our set test, brothers will be convinced!"

Try martial arts?Baili Jiuge rushed to the front of Mo Li subconsciously, and shouted: "He is in poor health and cannot use his internal strength for a long time, let me take over!"

"can."

"No."

Two voices sounded simultaneously.

The bandit leader agreed, but Baili Jiuge's slender body was brought to his side by Mo Li.

"Mo Li, what are you doing?!" Turning his head, he said angrily, his bright eyes were filled with incomparable worry and concern, reflected in Mo Li's eyes, and reflected in the soft light in his eyes.

"Silly Jiuge, don't worry about me, it's fine."

"How can I not be worried?!" Guess also knows that the reckless test of these bandits is no less than going up the mountain of swords and going down into the sea of ​​fire. Mo Li's body can't help it, so she should face it!

The bottom of the moon-like eyes swirls deeply moved, "Jiu Ge..."

He shot out suddenly, and touched Baili Jiuge's sleeping hole with his finger. Her eyes darkened and she fell asleep in his arms.

"Yuying." He called lightly.

Mikage, who was hiding in the dark, appeared and shocked the bandits again.Yuying remained silent, took Baili Jiuge, and helped her to sit on a chair not far away.

It wasn't until seeing this scene that Mo Li turned his eyes back and smiled lightly: "Your Excellency, please."

The bandit leader is a man of love, and now he said from the bottom of his heart: "Zhou Shizi treats his wife really well!"

Mo Li but smiled and said nothing.There are some things that don't need to be announced, Jiuge paid too much for him back then, he just wanted to spoil her all the time, and let it go on like this.

The bandit leader pointed to a tall wooden frame not far away, with a long thick hemp rope hanging from the top of the frame.

He said: "Zhou Shizi, if you can avoid Lao Tzu's three flying knives while hanging at that height, and you don't use hidden weapons, then we will listen to your advice this time!" Eye, once the son goes up, we brothers are not responsible for whether he lives or dies, you should think it through yourself!"

"It's okay." Mo Li acted as if he had never heard such words.

"This martial arts trial, I will accept it, and I am willing to bear everything."

With a light tone, without the slightest fear, there was actually a faint smile on that pale face.

This made everyone feel unbelievable... being hung on a wooden frame, already unable to move, they had to dodge their boss's best throwing knife three times.In the past, a brother wanted to fight for power, so he tried this level. As soon as he was suspended, he screamed regretfully and died under the first flying knife.

Faced with such a test that is almost impossible to pass, why does he not change his face?

The absent-minded state was spreading, and during the long silence, Mo Li had slowly come to the underside of the elevated bridge, and the bandit leader tied him tightly and hung him up.

Bright light flashed past the eyes, and the cold color woke everyone up.At the moment when I came back to my senses, I saw that the first throwing knife had already been thrown!

Mo Li looked at the galloping flying knife lightly, and instantly judged the location.It seems that the bandit leader couldn't bear to strike too hard, the first stab was his leg.

With a ding, the flying knife was kicked away, turned around and plunged into the wooden pillar next to it.

The people below breathed a sigh of relief.Fortunately, the knife did not stab the chest...

The bandit leader held up his knife again, and shouted: "Zhou Shizi, pay attention, the knife comes!"

Cold light flashes, lightning and flint.

This knife hit the front door, Mo Li's body was bound to death, it was absolutely impossible to hide.

Just when everyone was tense, a strong wind swept across Mo Li's eyes.When the knife came, he took advantage of the slight sideways face, concentrated his internal strength on his teeth, and bit the blade hard.

There were gasps one after another.

At this moment, Mo Li felt that his jaw was almost numb, his cold lips were pressed against the same cold blade, the corners of his lips were itchy, and blood flowed down from his long hair that was blown by the wind.

He still bit the blade tightly.

Finally, the remaining force of the knife was completely dispelled, and Mo Li's brows gradually relaxed. Looking down at the bandit leader below, he saw the color of shock and admiration in his eyes.

"Zhou Shizi, it's the last knife, what else can you do this time?!"

With a sharp knife, he attacked mercilessly.

This time, someone couldn't help exclaiming: "Heart!"

The knife pierced the heart!
Mo Li's eyes sank, and he grasped the time. At the last moment, he lowered his head, and hit the flying knife that was piercing his heart with the flying knife between his lips, and the flying knife hit the top of his head. on the hemp rope.

Three strands of the four strands of hemp rope were cut, and the last strand failed to hold on any longer, and broke completely with a bang.

The rope that bound his body was loose, and he fell to the ground as slowly as a tree leaf, lightly adjusted his lapel, walked slowly, and met the almost dumbfounded eyes of everyone.

Suddenly, a cold light flashed in front of his eyes.

A short knife was held in the hand of the bandit leader, and he attacked Mo Li, and he was very close in the blink of an eye.

Everyone was shocked.Didn't the three swords have already passed, why is there a fourth sword? !
But Mo Li didn't panic, suddenly shook his head, and threw out the flying knife from his lips!

There was another "ding", and the flying knife struck out the short knife in the bandit leader's hand, and both fell to the ground, ending everything with a crisp sound.

The bandit leader, who had lost his knife, clasped his hands into fists, knelt down and slipped to Mo Li's feet.

He did not hide the reverence in his eyes, and shouted: "Senior Zhou, there are a total of 270 brothers in my three towns and four villages, and only the eldest son will follow!"

Mo Li was still as calm as water and said: "Your Excellency, please stand up, there is no need to make such a big gift to me." As he said, he supported the bandit leader's upper arm with his own hands, and lifted him from the ground.

The bandit leader's eyes stared at Mo Li, shining brightly. Not only was he impressed in his heart at the moment, but he was also extremely moved by Mo Li's warm and courteous treatment.

Can't help sighing: "The powerful people all regard our brothers as reckless and inferior people. I have never seen the prince so willing to help me up with his own hands."

Mo Li smiled lightly: "Everyone can be Yao and Shun, there is no distinction between high and low in birth, so you don't have to underestimate yourself."

At this moment, a familiar whining sound floated into Mo Li's ears.He was slightly stunned, turned his eyes to look at Baili Jiuge, and in the blink of an eye, he had arrived in front of her like the shadow of the sun flying away.

"Jiu Ge, are you awake?" she asked softly, meeting her sleepy eyes.

This scene taught the bandit leader to see it in his eyes, his mouth couldn't be closed, and he nodded to himself after a long while.

He didn't miss Zhou Shizi's expression just now. He didn't expect that the person who didn't change his expression under the flying knife would change his expression because of his wife's whisper. These two people are really as rumored, they are deeply in love with each other.

At this moment, Baili Jiuge was still in a daze, she rubbed her eyes, but couldn't remember where she was, and just stared at the gentle and elegant face in front of her.

The voice that just woke up was also a bit thick: "Mo Li, where are we..." He murmured, but suddenly found that there was blood on the corner of Mo Li's lips!
Baili Jiuge suddenly woke up.

"Mo Li, are you hurt?!" She instinctively raised her hand to caress the corner of Mo Li's lips, but her little hand stopped near the corner of his lips.

He asked in a daze: "Mo Li, what happened... wait a minute, this is it!"

The eye-catching environment and the recklessness of those bandits finally reminded Baili Jiuge of everything.

Then she jumped up from the chair, rushed to Mo Li's side, and sneered: "You hit my sleeping point?! Did you use your internal strength just now? Why don't you let me face it? I don't want to look at it anymore!" It means that your body is damaged! Did you suffer internal injuries and bleed..."

"no."

Although Mo Li's face was a little pale, but not haggard at all, his eyes were piercing and bright, like a moon, like a falling flower, and more like a Gu that captured people's hearts, making Baili Jiuge fall in this tenderness In the ocean of comfort, the emotion is like a tide, and the intoxication is like madness.

"Look, Jiuge, it's not an internal injury, it's just a scratch on the corner of the lip. If you don't believe me, feel it."

"I..." I didn't dare to touch it, for fear of touching Mo Li's wound and causing him pain.

"It's okay." He comforted patiently: "Look, Yuying didn't say anything. If something happened to me, Yuying would have been unable to hold back."

"Mo Li..." Is it really as he said?

wrong!She clearly remembered that before she fell asleep, she heard the bandit leader say that she should hang Mo Li on a high place to avoid the three throwing knives!

Trembling in his heart, Baili Jiuge turned his face to look at the wooden frame, with a broken rope hanging from it, and a throwing knife nailed into the post...

Feeling agitated, Baili Jiuge scoffed, "I want to tell the truth!"

"Nine Songs..." She wanted to hear it, but he didn't want her to hear it.

Finally, the bandit leader came over and asked, "Your Majesty Zhou, you told me earlier that people have been arranged to pick us brothers up and leave safely and sneak into Luoyi. When will those people arrive?"

Because of the interruption of the bandit leader, Baili Jiuge couldn't ask any more questions.

Mo Li replied: "They will come tomorrow morning, take advantage of today, call back all the brothers who are away, clean up a little, and leave tomorrow morning." After saying that, he said: "Remember, the people who come tomorrow will be the first The owner is the owner of Lanzhuang."

"Lanzhuang?!" Baili Jiuge couldn't help exclaiming when he heard the name.

How could I have never heard of the name of Lanzhuang after I have been in the rivers and lakes for a long time?

It was a huge manor located in the Zhou Kingdom. It collected and cultivated various orchid varieties, monopolized the orchid trading market in various countries by means of almost dumping, and took away a large sum of money from countless noble families...

She also heard that Lanzhuang is not only a manor that exists for business, but also a place to sell all kinds of information. There are dragons and crouching tigers hidden in the manor, and there are many masters, and the owner of Lanzhuang, Wen Qiuhang, is even more...

"Oh!" Baili Jiuge exclaimed suddenly.

Lanzhuang owner Wen Qiuhang!This name... Wen Qiuhang?Qiuhang? !

Shocked: "Mo Li, your friend named Qiuhang, isn't it the owner of Lanzhuang Zhuang Wen Qiuhang?"

Mo Li admired Baili Jiuge's startled look, and replied softly, "It's him. I thought you'd already thought of it."

"Ah? I..." blushed, and murmured coquettishly: "It's not that I don't know that I'm nervous. Sometimes I react very quickly, and sometimes it's just like that."

Mo Li spoiled her and patted the top of her head, "Sooner or later you have to know, you will see Qiuhang one day. Remember not to mention the word 'wen', he just doesn't like this surname, so he asked me to call him Qiuhang .”

"This person is so weird that I thought his surname was Qiu!" Baili Jiuge nodded after saying something casually, "Okay, I'll remember."

"Hmm..." Mo Li turned his eyes and said to the bandit leader: "That's all I want to say. When I see Master Wen Zhuang tomorrow, just do what he said."

After finishing speaking, I saluted all the bandits again, "Thank you for your trust, then, I will go back to Luoyi first, and look forward to meeting you."

Baili Jiuge also clapped his hands, "Let's go first, trust Mo Li, it will be fine!"

The two looked at each other with a smile, and with the enthusiasm of the bandits and reckless people, they said goodbye and left.

As for Baili Jiuge, his mind was full of things about Qiuhang and Lanzhuang at the moment, and after thinking about it, he forgot about asking Mo Li how to avoid the flying knife.

When she remembered again, the two had already boarded the return carriage.She had no choice but to lie in Mo Li's arms, half scolding and half coquettish, and forced everything out of Mo Li's mouth...

The day when the two returned to Luoyi City was the fifth day of February in the year of Xin Chou.The snow in Luoyi City is gradually melting, the sun is shining in the sky, but the surrounding area is extremely cold due to the melting snow.

In the post palace, Baili Jiuge walked on the long embankment, his feet felt cold, and the coolness penetrated to his heart.

She hurriedly quickened her pace and walked towards the east wing.

This time when he came back to the post palace, Yu Feng, who was guarding the post palace, told the two that he had been secretly monitoring Han Chan these days according to the order Mo Li left before his departure.

But Han Chan's behavior was quite normal, like an ordinary little girl, without showing any signs.

Baili Jiuge knew that Mo Li could never let go of her doubts about Han Chan, and she always wanted to find out whether Han Chan was Gu Lingjun, and why she attacked Nine Colors Ganoderma lucidum... But she still didn't want to believe it , the person who saved him on the ruins of the Tower of Nine Deaths would be the evil Gu Lingjun of the Yin-Yang family...

Therefore, Baili Jiuge decided to dispel his doubts, and went to the East Wing to visit Han Chan and have a chat with her.

In the east wing, Baili Jiuge's cheeks were splashed with snow water falling from the tiles, causing her to shiver from the inside out.Breathing on her hands, rubbing her hands together, she pushed open the door.

"Han Chan, are you looking in the mirror?"

As soon as he opened the door, he saw Han Chan sitting straight in front of the bronze mirror with cicada flowers, combing his hair.Her skirt was not as long as Baili Jiuge's, it only reached below her knees, and the ring of silver ornaments under the skirt rang softly like wind chimes with her gently kicking calf.

Seeing such a scene, Baili Jiuge felt a sense of tranquility in his heart.The daughter's boudoir is always a safe haven. Although I don't have any boudoir, looking at it now, my heart is very peaceful and sweet.

So, how could Han Chan be the Gu Lingjun of the Yin Yang family?
"Jiu Ge, I'm combing my hair." Han Chan smiled and continued combing her hair intently.

Baili Jiuge also laughed, closed the door, and strode over, leaning on the back of Han Chan's chair with both hands, admiring Han Chan in the bronze mirror.

The person in the mirror looks so comfortable!Delicate and small melon-seeded face, eyes as crystal clear as moonlight pearls in the sea, and a crimson tear mole on the right corner of the mouth, highlighting a bit of mischievousness...

Baili Jiuge only felt that the chill in the mirror was indescribably pleasing to the eye.

Wait!

Suddenly a flash of lightning flashed through Baili Jiuge's mind. At this moment, because of a thought, the sky was dark for a while.

That crimson tear mole!

She desperately recalled the situation when she first met Han Chan, the two were lying in the ruins, she was lying on the right side, looking to the left, and then saw the tear mole on the corner of Han Chan's right lip that was red like blood...

The chilling mole is at the corner of the right lip!Just like the woman in the mirror!
No wonder I feel that Han Chan in the mirror is so pleasing to the eye.

Speaking of which... the heart is suddenly as cold as snow.The image in the mirror is reversed. So, the person sitting in front of the mirror at the moment has a tear mole at the corner of her left lip? !

The killing intent came so fast.

Almost at this moment, Baili Jiuge's face was reflected by the cold light of the cold weapon.

She gasped, and with all her cultivation, she jumped up and dodged backwards.
