Abandoned by the best children? I just take out the space

Chapter 1825 Who will save us?

Chen Changli immediately responded: "Shufang, follow me closely."

He held Wan Shufang's hand tightly and took a half step forward to protect her behind him.

Wan Shufang noticed his actions and her heart softened.

She was about to tell Chen Changli not to be nervous, but then she thought that Chen Changli was alert because he felt that the atmosphere in the town was not right.

She swallowed her words and followed him silently.

They thought that once they got to the outside of the magnificent building, they would be able to find someone to ask about the situation, but unexpectedly the building was empty.

Wan Shufang was extremely surprised: "Why is there no one here?"

Chen Changli also felt strange and his mind was in turmoil.

Suddenly he had a bad guess, and he hurriedly took Wan Shufang to the street where there were people just now, but found that the street was empty.

Looking at the empty streets, Wan Shufang gasped: "There were people here just now, how come they disappeared all of a sudden? This is too strange."

Chen Changli's expression was solemn when he heard this: "Something must have happened in this town, and the people in the town more or less know the truth, and are willing to cooperate with each other to fool outsiders."

"Then we have entered the devil's cave by accident." When Wan Shufang heard this guess, her heart suddenly rose to her throat.

Chen Changli's eyelids twitched slightly. He didn't know why, but looking at this empty town, he always felt that there was something he had overlooked.

But no matter how hard he thought, he couldn't remember what he had overlooked, and could only suppress the inexplicable emotion.

"Let's get out of here quickly." Chen Changli didn't want to stay here for long, so he quickly took Wan Shufang away.

This time they left the town smoothly.

Wan Shufang's heart unconsciously dropped before she left the town, but she didn't expect that she and her husband would encounter a group of assassins when they were about to approach the official road only half an hour after they left.

These people's moves seemed much more powerful, and they knew how to cooperate with each other. No matter how powerful Chen Changli was, he would be exhausted even if he brought Wan Shufang with him to deal with them.

Wan Shufang was very anxious, her thoughts racing. She wanted to use smoke to help Chen Changli, but she found that these people seemed prepared and would quickly retreat once they noticed her actions.

This went on over and over again, and the couple clashed with these people several times, and were almost captured by them the last time.

"Who are you? Why are you chasing us?" Wan Shufang was furious, with anger rising in her eyes.

It seemed as if these assassins hated the couple to their core and wanted to kill them, so they wouldn't waste any time talking to them.

Seeing that Chen Changli was almost injured, Wan Shufang was extremely anxious, but she had no better way. She could only take out some poison from the hospital space with the idea of ​​dying together.

"Evil villain, don't hurt my brother." At this moment, a long spear came at a high speed from a distance and pierced the person who was about to injure Chen Changli.

"Who came to save us?" Wan Shufang was extremely surprised.

Chen Changli looked confused: "I don't know either."

"You actually have helpers, how hateful." The assassins were even more shocked than the couple. The next moment, they rushed towards them with strong murderous intent and sharp blades.

But before he could chop down Chen Changli and his wife, a middle-aged man with a rough face rushed out from the jungle next to them. He kicked the knife-wielding assassin away, took his spear from the corpse with one hand, and rushed towards the assassin with great momentum.

He was an excellent marksman and the assassins were no match for him and soon died in his hands.

"Brother Cui? Is it really you?" Chen Changli took a deep breath and walked forward with Wan Shufang to thank the knight. He didn't want to see the knight's face. His pupils shrank slightly in shock, and after a moment, his eyes and eyebrows were filled with joy.

"Do you know each other?" Wan Shufang was very curious when she saw Chen Changli's delighted look.

"This is Brother Cui Shi. We met on the battlefield. At that time, Brother Cui was the one who helped us explore the way and helped us win the battle." Chen Changli introduced hurriedly.

Cui Shi was a chivalrous man who liked to travel around. He went to the battlefield because of the abominable deeds of the Quanrong.

Unfortunately, he was a refugee and had no household registration, so he could only secretly help Dajing’s military to detect the enemy’s offensive and never joined the army.

Chen Changli met him by chance, and later defeated the Quanrong with his help.

At that time, he was still thinking about asking for credit for Cui Shi, but he never thought that Cui Shi would leave without saying goodbye. He thought they would never meet again in this life, but he didn't expect that he would be saved by him today.

"I heard the sound of fighting before and thought it was bandits. I didn't expect it was you." Cui Shi was also very excited to see Chen Changli. He reached out his hand to hug Chen Changli and patted him on the shoulder. "It's been thirteen years since we last met, right?"

"Now that we meet again, you are still the same, handsome and extraordinary, and I can't take my eyes off you, but I have grown old."

As he spoke, he touched his face, his tone extremely melancholy.

Upon hearing this, Chen Changli quickly said, "Brother Cui, please don't say that. In my heart, you are still the same as before."

"Haha, I love that." Cui Shi smiled with his eyebrows curved, and then said, "Is this your wife? She looks gentle and has an outstanding temperament. She is a perfect match for you."

"But aren't you in Yongzhou City? How come you are here? After the chaos ended, I traveled around and wanted to go to Yongzhou City to find you."

"It's a long story." Chen Changli's face was bitter, but he quickly told the story again, emphasizing the strangeness of the town. "There is something very strange about that town. The people who were chasing us must have wanted to kill us to silence us, but my husband and I don't know what taboo we have violated."

"Hearing what you said, there is indeed a problem." Cui Shi frowned, as if thinking about something.

"Brother Cui, you have seen such situations when you traveled around the world." Chen Changli asked again.

Cui Shi shook his head: "I have never seen a situation like this where the people are willing to cooperate in doing something. I think there must be some interests involved that made the people pay everything for it."

After he finished speaking, he thought for a moment and said, "Don't worry about this, you two. Just follow me. I remember that it only takes an hour to reach a county town by walking along the official road."

"There is a county magistrate in the county. He should know something. If you go find him, maybe you can find out the truth."

Chen Changli quickly agreed, and then the couple followed Cui Shi to the county town to find the county magistrate to inform him of the abnormality in Xingyun Town.

The county magistrate was shocked and said, "Such a thing has happened under my jurisdiction. Come on, send someone to investigate. If there is someone behind this, he must be brought to justice."

He had a very good attitude and actively sent people to investigate the matter. Wan Shufang looked at him for a while and determined that he had no flaws, and immediately formed a good impression of him.

"Everyone, you might as well stay in the government office first. I will investigate this matter thoroughly and give you an explanation." The county magistrate said at this time.

Chen Changli politely declined: "My husband and I have other things to do and cannot stay here any longer, so I'll have to ask you to take care of this matter."
