Chapter 2656: accident

Although the subordinates on both sides are very dissatisfied-after all, no one can sleep well after being tired for a few days, but in the middle of the night, when the dream is in full swing, they are awakened and rushed. Wait.
However, everyone has nothing to do.
On one side are the well-trained guards in Jinyi, on the other side are the guards who are tied to protect their own clan chief.
Everyone could only get on the horse with grievances, bracing their spirits, and under the order of Li Bu hurt, everyone began to ride their horses forward.
In the night, horseshoes are rolling out on the endless grassland like thunder from the sky.
However, they did not run for long.
When the hour was approaching, there was already a faint, almost invisible morning light on the horizon ahead, but the grassland was still pitch black, and you could only faintly see the silhouettes of people flying around. Everyone tried to spread out as much as possible. , The gap between horses and horses is very large. After all, if you drive in such a dark night, you will bump into it if you don’t pay attention.
And the sharp-eyed Li did not hurt, and saw a faint light in the dark night where he could not see his fingers, almost out of reach.
It's the fire!
There was a rapid inhalation sound around him.
Turning his head to see, it was Xie Jiaojiao.
Her eyesight is also very good. When she saw the light in front, she immediately turned her head to look at Li Bu hurt, met his eyes, and said, "Did you see it too?"
"..."
"That should be our people."
Li Bushang didn't speak, only clenched the reins, and continued to ride the horse.
The grasslands are different from ordinary cities. There are people walking everywhere. In this vast expanse of land, there are almost no people who dare to drive in such a dark night.
The only thing that can be thought of is naturally the team of the patriarchs of the five great families in White Dragon City that they came this time to meet and protect.
After galloping forward for a while, everyone saw it.
What appeared in the front was not a point, but a fire. It should be a lot of people holding torches. There was a campfire on the ground, and the group of people and horses could be seen faintly gathering there.
Li Bushang waved his hand: "Speed ​​up!"
Everyone responded: "Yes!"
Ma Yuanju on the other side also urged everyone, and everyone rushed hard.
The sound of such heavy hoofs naturally alarmed the people in front of them. They immediately sent a small group of men and horses to ride over and were about to ask. Xie Jiaojiao already said, "It's us!"
The people immediately heard her voice.
Loudly: "It's Miss Xie!"
"Our people."
"Also, there are people sent by Han Dongwei!"
Already here, Li Bushang also let everyone slow down, so as not to bump into anyone in the dark night, and a horse and horse ride in front slowly, there are two horsemen and horses holding torches, obviously guards .
The fire flickered, shining on the man.
Without hurting him, Li saw the man's red hair under the fire.
He thought it was caused by the surrounding flames, but when he approached, he realized that the man was really a faintly red hair, and his facial features were extremely deep. He was illuminated by the fire light above his head, and the shadow cast by the high brow bones was almost obscured. Closed his eyes.
Can only faintly feel that this person's eyes are very bright.
Li Bu hurt Ce immediately.
The man also rode his horse and paced over, and his eyes hidden in the shadow looked up and down Li Bu hurt, and said, "This is--"
Ma Yuanju, who was on the side, came immediately and bowed his hand to the man.
"Master Murong."
"Uncle Ma."
"This one is the Jinyiwei commander sent by Emperor Yan Guo to protect the safety of the patriarchs with us."
"Oh……?"
The man raised his eyebrows slightly, and then looked at Li without hurting him.
Her thin lips were pursed in a curve that seemed to be a sneer.
Said: "It's really a young hero."
As he spoke, the flames flashed, and Li Bushang could see this man clearly. He was probably in his twenties and nearly thirty years old, with a high nose and deep eyes, a little hook on the bridge of his nose, and a deep contour, which made his face show through. A little bit demon.
Listening to Ma Yuanju's name just now, this person should be Murong Qiuming, the Patriarch of the Murong family who personally participated in the negotiation of offering the city.
He was old-fashioned when he said that he was "a boy born as a hero," but he himself was only this age.
and--
He is a fool.
However, since he was a patriarch, Li Bushang still bowed his hand in a salute: "I have seen it."
Murong Qiuming also bowed his hand to him and said, "I have seen it."
After that, he looked at Xie Jiaojiao, who was almost parallel to Li Bushang on horseback, and said, "Jiaojiao, you really shouldn’t run around with Uncle Ma and the others. There are so many dangers on the grassland, and the human heart is even more dangerous. Running around, what if you hurt yourself?"
"..."
As soon as he said this, everyone who heard it subconsciously frowned.
This statement obviously meant something.
However, what he was referring to was definitely not their own people, the only outsiders here, that is, these brocade guards.
Li Bushang looked at him coldly.
But Xie Jiaojiao said immediately: "Brother Qiu Ming, I can protect myself."
Murong Qiuming said, "The elders are also worried about you."
"..."
"If something happens to you, how can we explain it to your foster father."
He said this again, and it made people feel that there was something in the words.
Ma Yuanju naturally heard it too, and felt that the surrounding Jin Yiwei exuded an unpleasant aura. He coughed slightly and said, "Mr Murong, where is our Patriarch?"
Murong Qiuming used his long chin to face his back and said, "It's there."
"That's good,"
Ma Yuanju said: "The villain must go to see the Patriarch immediately. It would be great to be able to meet everyone so quickly. Let's take a break. Maybe tomorrow we can set off to Handongwei."
As he said, he was going to ride the horse.
However, under the firelight, Murong Qiuming's mouth turned up a little.
Coldly said: "This, I'm afraid it will not work."
"Uh?"
Upon hearing his words, Ma Yuanju immediately took the reins and turned to look at him. Li Bushang also subconsciously frowned.
"why?"
"Because of an accident, we will not leave."
Xie Jiaojiao immediately opened his eyes.
She murmured: "I, I had a foreboding that something was going to happen last night, so I urged everyone to hurry up and join you, Qiu Ming, what's the accident?"
Murong Qiuming glanced at her and sighed.
"Your premonition is really accurate."
This time, Li Bushang spoke up, and he said, "What happened?"
Murong Qiuming raised his head, looked at him coldly, and said, "Cheng Ye, the head of the Cheng family with us, was killed last night!"
