At this moment, Zheng Luxi finally regretted it.
But he regretted that it was too late to take action. If he had gotten rid of these hindrances earlier, there would not have been so much trouble now.
"Then, what should I do? Father, you can't leave me alone! If that little bitch succeeds, we can't even protect the Zheng family, let alone the Gong family! "
Second Old Master Zheng naturally knew this. He thought for a moment with a gloomy face.
"Now, we can only act first and report later."
"You mean?"
"If your eldest uncle and Zheng Rongrong die now, it's not too late."
Second Old Master Zheng narrowed his eyes and said indifferently, as if he didn't care that the people being schemed against were his own brother and niece.
Zheng Luxi was stunned, but a moment later, his eyes flashed with a different kind of fanaticism.
"Yes! If they all die now, then the Zheng family will be ours! Leave it to me. Father, don't worry, I will definitely let them die on the road without anyone knowing. "
Second Elder Zheng closed his eyes, and once again assumed the appearance of an otherworldly expert untainted by the mundane world.
Zheng Luxi thought for a while and left quietly.
After he left, Second Old Master Zheng opened his eyes again.
"Ha."
No one knew whether he was laughing at Zheng Luxi's stupidity or sneering at the fate of his eldest brother.
No matter what happened outside, the Zheng family and the Gong family would eventually fall into his hands.
It was also First Old Master Zheng's temporary decision to take Zheng Rongrong to the aristocratic family meeting.
Although Zheng Rongrong's people were happy about it, they still couldn't help but worry.
Especially the Zhao family, they were worried about their niece's health and that she would meet bad people on the road.
Fortunately, Lin Mengya repeatedly promised that she and Long Tianhao would go with her, which made the Zhao family feel a little relieved.
Before leaving, Lin Mengya and Long Tianhao also took the time to deal with everything in Shang Yang City.
This aristocratic family meeting was held in Mo City, which was close to the edge of the Zheng family's fief.
She had a hunch that this aristocratic family meeting would be a success.
And she and Long Tianhao would go directly to the Bai family after the meeting.
On the day they left, they heard that Zheng Luxi didn't return for a whole night.
Now, Old Master Zheng was more and more disappointed in Zheng Luxi. After all, there were traces of Xu Hu and Xu Liang.
He didn't notice it before, but that didn't mean Zheng Luxi could really hide it from everyone.
Otherwise, Old Master Zheng would not have brought his daughter along to participate in the Noble Clans Conference.
Lin Mengya and Long Tianhao sat in the carriage behind.
They were surrounded by the servants of the Zheng Family. To be safe, the two of them didn't talk too much.
The caravan traveled for a whole day. When they arrived at the inn where they would stay for the night, everyone was a little tired.
Lin Mengya and Long Tianhao were assigned to a superior room. After entering the room, she checked the inside and outside of the room and found nothing unusual.
Looking at her cautious look, Long Tianhao was in a good mood.
After closing the door, he put her on his lap and Lin Mengya leaned against his chest, letting him massage her sore waist.
"Didn't you say that Zheng Luxi would definitely make a move on the road?"
Lin Mengya whispered into Long Tianhao's ear.
"Yes, before he left, the person in charge of monitoring him found that he sent someone to contact a group of mountain bandits. It seems that he wants to make it look like he was intercepted by the mountain bandits to cover up his real purpose. "
"But this inn has obviously been tampered with. If he used the mountain bandits to rob it, I'm afraid it would be an unnecessary move. "
From the moment she entered the door, she discovered the potential problem of the inn.
Her nose was so sensitive that she had long smelled the smell of gunpowder in the air.
If Zheng Luxi wanted to kill people to silence them, then the gunpowder should be hidden in the mountain bandits' stronghold.
After all, regardless of whether it was the Gong Family or the Zheng Family, things like gunpowder were strictly controlled.
The inn was in the town. Once it was detonated, the sound would be earth-shattering. Who wouldn't hear it?
If he wanted to destroy the corpses, he could burn the inn to ashes with a single fire.
Long Tianhao looked as usual, as if he wasn't worried at all that they might be blown up at any time.
"Let's wait and see."
Lin Mengya raised her eyebrows and nodded. "Okay."
After they talked for a while, Zheng Rongrong sent someone to invite them over.
Old Master Zheng was worried about his daughter's health, so he specially inquired about the situation and asked the divine doctor to take his pulse before he returned to the room with a peace of mind.
After the group of people finished eating and drinking, they all returned to their respective rooms to rest.
Lin Mengya and Long Tianhao were lying together in their clothes. Although their eyes were closed, the movement outside had never escaped their ears.
A slight sound of horse hooves was heard. Almost at the same time, they immediately turned over and sat up.
Long Tianhao took advantage of the situation and climbed up the beam with him like an ape.
Outside the inn, there were more than 20 fast horses with hooves wrapped in cloth.
They quietly sneaked into the town, and their goal was a big fat sheep in this inn.
The bandit leader observed the inn and waved his hand. Immediately, someone turned over and got off the horse, and knocked on the back door.
After a while, the door was opened, revealing a hidden servant in the inn as a spy.
It was not the first time for the servant to do this kind of thing. After nodding to the eldest brother, he signaled that they were ready inside.
More than 20 people immediately got off the horse, leaving a few lookouts, and flashed into the inn one after another.
It was not the first time for this group of people to do this kind of thing.
Since they were secretly recruited by Zheng Luxi, it was mainly because the eldest master of the Zheng family took a fancy to a rich family. When he failed to force them, he would let them secretly do this kind of killing and robbing business.
Over time, this group of people also grew their appetites, and they grew bolder.
They became evil bandits in the fief of the Zheng family, and everyone's face changed at the mention of their name.
This time, they also regarded it as the previous business, and did not feel that there was any danger.
At the thought of the money and women in his hands, the bandit leader suddenly showed a smug smile.
"Be quick. We have to finish this business before dawn!"
"Yes!"
According to the previous rules, before they "did" the business, they would send someone to sneak in first, and on the day of the operation, they would put knockout drugs in the food of others.
They had figured out the situation of this inn before.
Therefore, they acted quickly. Some of them sneaked into the backyard to get the carriage, and some went upstairs to kill people.
The bandit leader clearly remembered that this time the person who was ordered to be killed lived in the two easternmost rooms.
He kicked the door open and fiercely stabbed the long knife in his hand into the quilt.
No matter who he was, he was sure that his body would be separated from his body.
However, the expected obstruction did not come, and it did not feel like a human at all, but more like — straw!
He immediately lifted the quilt, only to see that there was no person inside, but only a scarecrow.
After years of living on the edge of a knife, he had a strong sense of crisis like a wild beast.
He immediately lifted the knife and swept it behind him, but before he could turn around, a long sword pierced through his chest.
Similar scenes were playing out in every room.
In the silence of the night, this group of tyrannical mountain bandits became confused ghosts.
Lin Mengya and Long Tianyu stood on the beam, watching the secret guards finish all this, and then asked someone to make a little movement.
On the street, a figure slipped over.
The man first lay down at the back of the alley and looked at those horses.
Then he took a few steps closer, stuck to the door, and looked at the situation in the yard.
While no one was paying attention, he quickly ran to the side of the cellar.
Just when he took out a match and was about to light the hidden fuse, two figures quietly appeared in front of him.
"Ah —"
The scream stopped abruptly, because the man was knocked out.
Lin Mengya immediately pulled the match in his hand to prevent the possibility of being blown away.
"Take him away."
Long Tianyu ordered in a low voice, and immediately a secret guard came over and took the man.
Just when the two of them heaved a sigh of relief and were about to leave, Long Tianhao's expression suddenly changed.
Lin Mengya did not know why, but she only felt a big hand around her waist tightly, and her body became light, and she was dragged away by Long Tianyu.
Those secret guards were all good at martial arts, and Long Tianyu was the best among them.
They silently shuttled through the house, like night owls, and no one could catch up.
Hiding her face in Long Tianyu's chest, Lin Mengya only felt that his body had been tense since a moment ago.
That was the only reaction he would have when he was in danger.
Although Lin Mengya was curious, she did not ask.
She just obediently let him lead her away. It was not until they were out of the town that his speed slowed down.
At this moment, a special smell faintly spread from afar.
Lin Mengya recognized this smell. When she was besieged in Feiye City, she smelled a similar smell from the little black cat when she subdued it.
But here, it was a little more strange.
The secret guards protected them and hid in the woods outside the town.
The people of the Zheng family were waiting for them outside the woods.
However, they did not go out immediately.
"It's okay, you go first."
Long Tianyu calmly ordered his subordinates, and in a moment, the secret guards disappeared.
Lin Mengya raised her head curiously, and looked at him without blinking.
"They are people from Immortal City."
It was rare for him to explain, and Lin Mengya just nodded.
"I know."
"You know? How do you know? Have you fought with them? Did they recognize your identity? "
He was a little anxious, and even his body became tense again.
Lin Mengya immediately reached out her hand and gently stroked his hair.
"It was when we were besieged that time. Don't worry, they don't know who I am. But this smell is a little similar to Blackie's. "
Hearing this, Long Tianyu was a little relieved.
Blackie was that Gu Mu beast. That little thing was very intelligent, and now it played well with the two children.
It was also because of its protection that Lin Mengya could rest assured of the safety of the two children.
