Chapter 8
Unfortunately, it was rainy for several days, Luo Qingchen went to the entrance of the village every day to wait for the caravan, but he never saw the caravan. I don't know if they changed the route or changed the business plan, or passed by. Here it is.

"Qingchen, how good is this? Our house has already been sold, and Aunt Liu has been asking when we will leave for the past two days." Mrs. Zhang lost her mind.

"Mother, don't worry. We don't have to follow the caravan when we go to the capital. There are many caravans on this road. It's just that it's been raining these days so we haven't passed by. When the rain stops, we'll go." Luo Qing Chen comforted Mrs. Zhang, and contacted her to buy two donkeys.

The next day, the rain stopped, and after saying goodbye to their good neighbors, the mother and daughter put their simple luggage on the donkey and left the small mountain village.

The sky was still cloudy, and the road in front of me and the trees on both sides seemed to be shrouded in light gauze and mist, which was as soft and pleasant as ink painting.

At first, Zhang Shi looked at the empty roads before and after, and she was a little uneasy, but Luo Qingchen told Zhang Shi about the prosperity of the capital, and pointed her to appreciate the scenery on the side of the road.

"Qingchen, how do you know what's going on in the capital?" Mrs. Zhang asked curiously when she saw that Luo Qingchen was talking about things in the capital in a clear way.

"I heard what others said, and I read some in books." Luo Qingchen smiled at Zhang Shi.

Although living in poverty, the Zhang family was born into a noble family, and taught Luo Qingchen to read and write in his spare time. Luo Qingchen grew up in a small mountain village, but naturally exudes a delicate and gentle air, which is not inferior to those masters at all. Lady.

It's just that in her previous life, Luo Qingchen lived in a small mountain village before entering Beijing, so she had less experience and a pure heart, which caused her to suffer a lot later.

Going to Beijing ahead of schedule, and this time it's not Xu Hongwen who took Zhang into the mansion as a concubine, Luo Qingchen doesn't know what unknown variables will arise.

What she can be sure of is that compared with the ignorant and ignorant little girl before, this time she embarked on a journey with less novelty and more experience and a calm state of mind.

Speaking of which, there were really few pedestrians on this road, and they only met three or two passers-by sporadically. It was not until late in the evening that they found a small mountain inn, which was old and small.

"Mother, let's settle down here tonight." Luo Qingchen got off the donkey, picked up her luggage, and helped Mrs. Zhang get off the donkey.

The mother and daughter entered the yard, and saw a large blue carriage with gold patterns parked there, and the sound of horses was faintly heard behind the house. It seemed that there were already guests here, and they were still people with status.

Luo Qingchen yelled a few times in the empty lobby, only then did the shop waiter come out unhurriedly, and said: "The shop is full, you should find another place to stay."

Where can I find another home in this wilderness?

Luo Qingchen discussed with the waiter in the shop: "Second brother, where do we two girls find a second place? It's not safe outside, and we don't want to pick anything. You can just find a place that is convenient for you. Tomorrow we will not short your rent."

"No, no, our store has been booked, haven't you seen the horses and horses outside? My son likes to be quiet, you can afford to scare the customers away by disturbing and yelling like this? Hurry up before it's dark. Let's go to the next one." Xiao Er waved impatiently.

How could Luo Qingchen go out like this?She thought for a while and said, "Second brother, why don't you take me to see the young man, who is away from home, I don't think he would be so unreasonable. Don't make things difficult for you, I will talk to him myself and see if he is willing to let me out of the room."

The waiter in the shop squinted at Luo Qingchen, lowered his head and went about his own business, cleaning the table and sweeping the floor, and ignored them at all.

Luo Qingchen had never seen a store with such a bad attitude. She grabbed the rag from the second-hand store and said, "You little girl, you are so tricky, you won't even lead me the way?"

Xiaoer curled her lips: "I've said it all, my son likes to be quiet, I don't want to scold you, I advise you not to make fun of yourself."

Luo Qingchen threw away the rag: "Anyway, it's only such a big place, I'll find it myself, and I won't bother you."

Mrs. Zhang persuaded: "Qingchen, forget it, people don't want it, we still..."

"Mother, it's getting dark outside, don't talk about villains, if we meet a wild beast, can we run or win?" Luo Qingchen said and walked upstairs, she guessed that the young man that Xiaoer said should be live upstairs.

Mrs. Zhang thought her daughter was right, so she packed her bags and waited downstairs.

But Luo Qingchen and Xiao Er's argument, still can't be heard in this palm-sized shop?
In the relatively best guest room upstairs, a young man in Tsing Yi stood by the window, taking a panoramic view of everything below, his deep eyes rolled on Luo Qingchen, and his lips twitched slightly.

Seeing his expression, an old servant next to him stepped forward and asked, "What is your order?"

"Are there many rooms?" Young Master Qingyue asked indifferently.

"Have."

"Give them a room."

The old servant was a little puzzled: "Didn't the master not allow the store to accept customers?"

"Didn't you see that she was determined to sneak in? Life and death are fate, this is what they asked for." After finishing speaking, the young master turned and walked away from the window.

The old servant was ordered to go out, just in time to meet Luo Qingchen who came upstairs and said: "Girl, my son knows what happened just now, please follow me."

The old servant gave Luo Qingchen a corner room on the first floor, and she asked the old servant to convey her thanks to the young master, and then welcomed Mrs. Zhang in.

While making the bed, Luo Qingchen said: "Mother, you see, sometimes things are like this, and those who say it's not allowed are often not in charge at all, just persevere, and see if their master can talk better."

Mrs. Zhang is also very happy: "Qingchen, you are really getting more and more capable. This is not like me at all. Maybe you followed your father."

Mrs. Zhang made a slip of the tongue for a while, afraid that Luo Qingchen would ask who her father was like before, and hurriedly said: "I really want to thank that young master, he is really a kind person."

"I don't think so, let's just pay the rent tomorrow. Since he doesn't like being disturbed, if we go to see him to thank him, he will be annoyed instead." Luo Qingchen knows that some big families always have something different taboo.

Maybe it was something on his mind, Luo Qingchen managed to fall asleep, but he didn't sleep soundly, and suddenly woke up in the middle of the night, when he opened his eyes, there was a fire outside the window.

"Mother, wake up quickly." Luo Qingchen woke up Mrs. Zhang, put the burden on her back, supported Mrs. Zhang, and rushed out from the door that was just on fire.

She was startled by this, and saw that the whole yard was on fire, the fire wasn't too big, but there were pinging, ping-pong, pong-pong, swords, swords and shadows, and it could be seen that one side was the man in black and the other was the young man who lived in the inn. people.

She didn't care about who they were, who was good and who was bad, Luo Qingchen helped the stunned Zhang and ran out of the shop.

As soon as they arrived at the door, there was a gust of cold wind, Luo Qingchen subconsciously pressed Zhang's head, and she also shrank her neck, a shining steel knife almost brushed against their hair with a "swish".

The person who attacked them was a man in black, who obviously regarded the two of them as a group staying in the inn, and when his first move failed, he withdrew his knife and slashed at the mother and daughter again.

Mrs. Zhang trembled in fright, and shouted, "Help—"

Luo Qingchen couldn't leave Mrs. Zhang to run for her own life, so she grabbed a wooden stick beside her and threw it over her head, the knife of the man in black was slashing at it.

However, the wooden stick did not block the chopping force of the knife. Luo Qingchen's hands were numb from the shock, and the wooden stick that was split into two fell down. Light dust split in half!

At this moment, a cold light shot down from the head of the man in black. When the man in black's knife almost touched Luo Qingchen, his eyes suddenly popped out, and he fell down straight.

Mrs. Zhang suddenly saw a dead body lying in front of her, she screamed in fright and passed out.

Luo Qingchen subconsciously looked in the direction from which the cold light came, and saw a light blue figure flying down from the second floor in the burning flames. His appearance, but such a light and butterfly-like figure shows that this person has extraordinary skills. Judging by his appearance, he should be the son who lives in the shop.

Luo Qingchen didn't have time to thank her, so she knelt down and patted Zhang's face: "Mother, wake up."

After yelling twice that Mrs. Zhang should not answer, Luo Qingchen pinched Mrs. Zhang fiercely with her right thumb, and Mrs. Zhang let out a sigh of relief and woke up.

"Mother, we have to get out of here quickly." Luo Qingchen helped up the limp Zhang Shi.

Mrs. Zhang was so frightened that her feet were so weak that she couldn't walk at all.Luo Qingchen was also afraid.

If she was a reasonable person, she would not be afraid, but there were all red-eyed villains in front of her, and she would not listen to her at all. The only way out was to run for her life.

Luo Qingchen stuffed Mrs. Zhang into a haystack nearby and hid first, then went to look for her two donkeys.

The shed where the horses and donkeys were tied was also on fire, and half of them had collapsed. The horses didn’t know whether they broke free and ran away, or were deliberately let go by the men in black. Only one donkey was still tied there, jumping again. It jumped to the ground again, screaming desperately.

Luo Qingchen stepped forward, grabbed the rein tightly, and finally dragged the donkey to the place where Mrs. Zhang was hiding, and helped Mrs. Zhang onto the donkey.

Just when Luo Qingchen was pulling the donkey to leave this place, he accidentally caught a glimpse of a man in black hiding behind a pile of firewood.That person didn't notice Luo Qingchen and Zhang Shi, he turned his back to them and raised his hand, obviously trying to throw a hidden weapon at the person opposite him.

Not far ahead, a light blue figure was surrounded by several men in black, moving around, with a brisk posture and sharp strikes.

The crackling of the burning wood, if you hadn't seen it, you would never have heard the sound from the hidden weapon.

If Luo Qingchen wanted to escape for her life, she had to quietly. At this time, the attention of both sides was on the fighting parties in the fire scene, and it was the best time for her to slip away.

However, if she doesn't make a sound, that young master will surely fall into the trap.

Luo Qingchen saw a stone right next to her feet, and said to Zhang: "Mother, wait a minute." He raised the stone with both hands and walked a few steps quietly, aiming at the person who set up an ambush, and threw it.
