Chapter 298

Following the scholar's finger, Bai Hu's eyes flashed, and after a few glances he asked, "Are you sure you ran that way? You should know what this is, right? You should also understand the consequences of lying, right?"

The Jinyiwei waist badge was placed in front of the scholar. It was clearly engraved on it: Jinyiwei Qianhu.

The scholar's face was trembling slightly, and he was trembling even as he spoke, looking as if he was extremely frightened.

He did not reply immediately, but hesitated for a few breaths, seeming to be thinking. Then he nodded heavily and said affirmatively: "Sir, I can see clearly that he did run in that direction!"

Pointing in the same direction both times, the covered-faced white tiger's eyes flashed, he nodded, and without saying a word, he chased directly in the direction the scholar said, disappearing in the blink of an eye.

Acting is not real. It doesn’t matter where you pursue it.

It wasn't until the white tiger's figure disappeared for a long time that the scholar pretended to look back in fear and tiptoed toward the darkness.

Walk a little distance to make sure no one is following you. He immediately circulated his true energy and chased Zhao in the direction he left.

Zhao Jiu, who was running in front, knew that his goal had been achieved when he sensed the third burst of true energy. He simply slowed down, covering up his true energy and ran slowly outside the city.

The scholar behind him noticed that the person in front of him was missing shortly after crossing the city wall. His heart was shaking slightly, and he hurriedly increased his speed and ran out of the city.

But after running for some distance, he still couldn't see anyone. He frowned and looked around. The woods were dense and lush, and he was a little unsure.

I simply stopped and looked around the top of the tree several times, but still found no one.

Now he was so panicked that he didn't dare to waste any more time. He hurriedly landed on the ground and searched the surroundings carefully. His steps were so gentle that he made almost no sound.

"Rustling"

The scholar turned his head cautiously, but found nothing. At this time, there were fluctuations of zhenqi on his side. He was so surprised that he had to push out a palm in a hurry.

The two strands of zhenqi collided, and the scholar stepped back three steps, crushing his feet heavily before he could stabilize his body. No longer caring about anything else, he immediately drew out the soft sword from his waist and carefully responded to every move around him.

Judging from just now, the other party is at least a first-class man, and he is only a second-class man. If it were not the barbarian but the Qianhu of Jin Yiwei just chasing after him, then he would definitely die.

The wind blew, the leaves moved slightly, and a shadow flashed past under the moonlight. The scholar's soft sword moved, but in vain. He turned around and slashed several times, but there was still nothing.

"Hmm." The voice sounded, and he felt that there were people all around him.

tread!

There was a sound, and the scholar relied on instinct to draw a sword backwards, but unfortunately it was dodged. When he thought about making another move, a hand was already expanding in front of his eyes.

Life and death were at stake, and he didn't care about anything else. He shouted in a panic: "I'm not here to catch you, but to protect you when you return to Beihu!"

The palm stopped an inch in front of him, and the sharp energy almost touched his face, but it stopped abruptly. He was so frightened that he took two steps back. He lost his footing and almost fell down. Fortunately, he was not distracted and he stabilized his body by changing his steps.

Putting away the soft sword, under the bright moonlight, he finally saw clearly the vicious and bloodthirsty face of the other party. The scholar personally asked: "Are you the Hu man who escaped from the Bianzhou prison?"

Zhao on the opposite side nodded and said "Huh".

"Great!" A smile appeared on the scholar's face and he said eagerly: "Come with me, we will take you back to Beihu."

Zhao just didn't move, shook his head and pointed at his face, making continuous whining sounds.

The scholar couldn't understand what he meant, so he could only persuade him nicely: "Don't worry, our purpose is the same, which is to protect you when you return to Beihu!"

But Zhao was already shaking his head, pointing at him, tapping his own face, and then pointing at his face.

"oh!"

Now the scholar understood that he was asking about his identity! After thinking for a while, he explained: "I am the person you paid to hire, and there are experts coming with me. I will take you to see her now. Our purpose is to send you back to Beihu!"

Zhao, who was standing opposite, made no move for the first time. After hesitating for a long time, he nodded cautiously and motioned for him to lead the way.

A look of distrust.

But this look convinced the scholar. After all, he is an escaped person, so it would be wrong to just trust others casually.

"Okay, okay! Just follow me from a distance." The scholar nodded and said.

Zhao just nodded and still motioned for him to lead the way.

The two of them were in front of each other, with a large distance between them. The scholar walking in front could not clearly see Zhao Jiu behind him, and could only vaguely see a shadow following him.

Because I didn't use my true energy, I ran for who knows how long before I reached the city gate. When the scholar walked in, Zhao was already waiting for him in the shadows.

Understanding the difference in realm between the two, the scholar didn't say anything and walked toward the restaurant.

As soon as he entered the door, he excitedly waved to Wu Sheng's old mother and said with a smile: "Mom, the barbarian has been found!"

"Oh?" Wu Sheng's mother was stunned.

Before she could say anything else, the scholar opened the door, waved in the distance, and said with a smile: "Come in, this is what I call a master."

Two gentle footsteps sounded, and Zhao entered the room like the wind, pulling the scholar in by the way.

After closing the door, he just looked up at Wu Sheng's mother for a few times, then turned to stare at the scholar suspiciously. That way seems to say: Is this a master?

The scholar waved his hand and introduced: "A person cannot be judged by his appearance. Although he is old, he is actually a little master! Do you think he is a master?"

Hearing this, Zhao nodded and found a chair to sit down.

On the other hand, Wu Sheng's mother looked at Zhao Jiu, suspicion flashing in her eyes. After hesitating for a moment, he asked the scholar, "Is this the barbarian? How come he can understand us even though he can't speak a word?"

"Woooooooo!" Zhao on the chair waved his fists and gestured with writing gestures with anger on his face.

Seeing this, the scholar hurriedly found pen, ink, paper and inkstone and pushed them in front of Zhao Jiu. Picking up the pen, Zhao scrawled on the paper and wrote: I can not only listen and speak, but also write. Otherwise, how could I sneak into Southern Qi?

Wu Sheng's mother and the scholar looked at it again, looked at each other and nodded. There is indeed nothing wrong with this!

"Why did you come to Bianzhou?" Wusheng's mother then asked.

It took a while to finish writing. The paper said: I didn't come to Bianzhou. My mission was to go to the capital to kill someone. As a result, I was caught by the Jin Yiwei and sent to Bianzhou.

Daqing is a scapegoat! The two of them curled their lips, but they also said that if the barbarians did not assassinate the emperor, why would they go to Jiangnan to set fire in their idle time?

It turns out that the emperor himself set the fire and framed it on the barbarians. No wonder people go to great lengths to make people mute before beheading. This is the basis!

The two asked a lot of questions one after another, and Zhao's hands were almost numb before they nodded and stopped. Seeing that the two of them didn't speak for a long time, Zhao knocked on the table and wrote the last three words.

I'm hungry!
