When Lu Zhengqiu entered the room, he brought back a basin of clear water, and the woman who called herself "Mr. Wutong" washed her cheeks with water and combed her disheveled hair a little, so she finally looked less like a beggar.

After washing away the dirt in the grooves of her skin, her original cheeks were also revealed, her complexion was a little pale, her lips were not as rosy as ordinary people, and there was a hint of haggardness under the dull color.

Lu Dongqing knew that this was the result of her year-round loss of energy and blood, and it was a symptom of the abortion of a movable fetus.And she actually embarked on the road of martial arts with such a serious problem. Once she drives the exercises and adjusts the meridians, those losses will be intensified and accumulated, and she will inevitably bear the doubled magnified pain.

If she hadn't been cruel enough to herself, she would definitely not be able to practice the kung fu she is today.

Lu Dongqing looked at her outline and was sure that she would not be too different in age from him. However, she didn't even disclose her name, let alone tell about her past experiences.

Calling such a woman Mr. is really awkward, so Lu Dongqing silently called her "Wutong" in her heart.

Wu Tong didn't care about her complexion, probably because she had been disguised for a long time, and her gestures were very flamboyant, informal.

When she washed her cheeks, her hands were like wild cats scratching at her face.

When she washed her hair, water droplets splashed along the hair strands.

Lu Dongqing stood aside and waited for her to raise her head before silently taking a step forward and handing over the towel.

Wu Tong tilted his head and opened his mouth slightly, as if surprised by his thoughtful behavior, he was stunned for a moment before reaching out to take it.

"It's been a long time since I've felt so refreshed," she wiped off the water from her head, and sighed sincerely from her throat, "I won't be playing a beggar anymore"

She wiped off the drops of water on her face, pulled a stool and sat down, holding her hair with her hands.

She has a leisurely expression, just looking at her appearance, absolutely can't imagine that she is being intercepted by the pursuers and is in danger.

Lu Dongqing was not as indifferent as she was, and said in a serious tone: "What are your plans next?"

Wutong turned to him and said in a natural tone: "I want to take you away."

"Me?" Lu Dongqing was taken aback, "I still intend to continue to track down the traces of the Demon Cult's envoy."

Wu Tong shook his head and said: "You don't have to chase after him. According to the information I got, he has already gone to Anyi, and he must have already entered the city by now."

Lu Dongqing was startled and said, "Anyi, the capital city?"

"That's right," the other party nodded, "Anyi, the capital city, is your hometown, but it's definitely not the place we should go now."

Lu Zhengqiu was listening to the two people's words, and said at this moment: "Actually, I have always speculated that the actions of the Demon Cult are related to the current imperial court?"

Lu Dongqing was startled: "Why does Master think so?"

Lu Zhengqiu said: "The first is the ban on martial arts that the imperial court is eager to implement. If it weren't for this ban that disintegrated the righteous way of martial arts, how could there be a soil for the spread of the wind. The nine years of decline of the righteous way just created the opportunity for the prosperity of the Demon Cult. Chance."

Lu Dongqing said: "That's true."

Lu Zhengqiu continued: "The second is the Northern Expedition nine years ago. I heard that after the prince was killed, Emperor Jian was in unbearable grief and his body was getting weaker and weaker. In addition to his advanced age, almost all the courts were handed over to his second son, King Yuchang. That King Chang had never made any meritorious service before he came out of the mountain. Without the help of martial arts people, he was ordered to replace the prince to lead the Northern Expedition. He still returned with great victory. Could his victory be too smooth? "

Lu Dongqing said: "Master, what you mean is that King Chang led the Northern Expedition, maybe there is a secret assistant from the Demon Sect?"

Lu Zhengqiu nodded, and said again: "The third is the news that Mr. Wutong just provided, that Nan Yanqi brought the stolen dragon blood vine to the capital. These three things alone seem to be coincidences, but they all point to the same A possibility that really bothers me."

After he finished speaking, he realized that the eyes of the woman on the side suddenly changed when he looked at him.

He cupped his hands and said: "If what I said is wrong, the girl should not laugh."

The other party just shook his head and said: "On the contrary, the possibility you mentioned happened to be my speculation. I searched for the traces of the Demon Cult everywhere, but I still couldn't find the leader and the backbone. But it is a blind spot. Now officers and soldiers are strictly checking when entering and exiting the city, and my beggar friends are absolutely unable to enter."

Lu Zhengqiu said: "I have heard this too. Since the tragedy happened nine years ago, the imperial city has been heavily guarded, which has reached a strange point. That's why the rumors of 'nine stars rising to the sun, the sky and the earth will fall' are particularly captivating. "

After hearing what the two said, Lu Dongqing looked even more solemn, and said to himself: "Could it be that King Yuchang really colluded with the Demon Cult...?"

The ancestor of the Si clan of the royal family of the Yu State was the descendant of the god Yu and a woman of the human tribe. He had the blood of a demigod. A part of it is left behind, condensed into the primordial spirit for its drive, to lead the state of China, and to protect the people.

It is unbelievable that the Human Sovereign, blessed by the candlelight, will join forces with the Youying demon in the northern border, like a torch jumping into an ice cave.

Dongqing frowned and said, "If Master's conjecture is true, the case nine years ago may also have something to do with the Demon Sect."

If the crown prince is killed, General Di is blamed, and the Zhenbei Army is disintegrated, it is a conspiracy planned by the Demon Sect and King Chang...

This thought took shape in his mind, and immediately brought back a raging memory. The flames burned the sky of Anyi city red, and also made his blood boil.

Familiar temperature appeared on the back of the hand.

He lowered his head, and found that he had clenched his fist at some point, and the master's hand rested on his white joints, like a clear trickle, soothing him and gently extinguishing the fire in his heart.

Lu Zhengqiu sat beside him, looked at him and said indifferently: "If this is the case, we should proceed with caution."

As soon as he finished speaking, Wutong's voice entered his other ear: "Master Zhengqiu is right. Fortunately, I found you in time. Our first task is to leave Yushan and get rid of the entanglement of the government."

She squatted on the ground and leaned half of her body under the bed frame.

Lu Dongqing asked in surprise, "What are you looking for?"

She dragged a bundle out from under the bed, and vigorously dusted off the dust on the surface: "That's what I'm looking for."

Untie the knot on the surface, there are several clothes inside, most of the fabrics are old, some are simply faded, but they are all washed clean and stacked neatly.

Lu Dongqing was even more puzzled: "This is...?"

"This is our life-saving straw," she slapped the dust off her hands, bent down to pick through the baggage, and replied as she picked, "There is no other exit from Wutong Town, so we all have to disguise."

Lu Dongqing stared at her back and asked, "Where do these clothes come from?"

She replied without turning her head: "Recently, a new crossing bridge was built in Lingquan Valley. There are many drug dealers coming and going. I stole a few from their carriages. You can pretend to be drug dealers and leave."

"how about you?"

"I will part ways with you so as not to attract attention."

Lu Dongqing frowned and said, "The people in the government probably already remember your appearance, and your situation is not optimistic."

Indus said nonchalantly: "Then lie to them again, I've already lied to you once, you don't have to worry about me."

She finally finished picking out the clothes, spread the results on the bed, put one hand on her waist, and said loudly: "These two are just the right size, let's take them."

Lu Dongqing took a closer look and saw that one of them was light red in color, with a wide hem and embroidered with a few peach blossoms, her eyes widened immediately.

"Wait a minute, one of these is clearly a woman's attire!"

"That's right," Wu Tong looked at him with a smile, "otherwise, how can it be called a disguise, one of you has to dress up as a woman."
