Chapter 212 Ghost-faced General
Meng Yu raised her hand and said, "Uncle, see you in a few days!" Then she left.
She didn’t stay to wait for the result of how Pei Mingqiu would deal with these two people. She would know it in the future.”
Pei Mingqiu breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Meng Yu walk out without looking back.
He had no intention of keeping these two people, but facing Meng Yu, a six-year-old child, he didn't want her to see too much blood, even though this six-year-old child was a great martial artist.
Ruan Dong and Ruan Xi saw the murderous intent in Pei Mingqiu's eyes. They were not the kind of people who would sit and wait for death. Ruan Xi's right hand was broken, but his left hand could be used.
The two brothers immediately wanted to attack and hurt people.
But as soon as they stood up, they fell to the ground again, their bodies empty, without any internal strength left.
Such a sudden change shocked them beyond words, and at the same time a feeling of despair surged from the bottom of their hearts.
That little monster imprisoned their inner strength?
Before they could figure it out, Pei Mingqiu took action.
With two "chi" sounds, the sharp weapon pierced into the flesh.
Ruan Dong and Ruan Xi killed countless people, but they probably never thought that one day they would die in this wilderness.
Their wide-open eyes were their last expression before they died, shock, rage, disbelief, unwillingness...intertwined together.
They never expected that even after they had announced the name of Prince An, someone would still dare to kill them.
Pei Mingqiu sheathed his sword.
The two guards who had always treated themselves as invisible people came closer. The one on the left said in a low voice: "General, Prince An's men are here. Could it be that your whereabouts have been leaked?"
Pei Mingqiu shook his head: "They are not coming for me, they are definitely coming for the mother and daughter!"
The man on the right said angrily: "Prince An is becoming more and more lawless. He even sent two great martial arts masters to kill an ordinary woman. This is simply insane."
Pei Mingqiu said softly: "Deal with the body! Be careful where you go! After meeting with Principal Pei, we will leave as soon as possible!"
"Yes!"
Zhao Susu returned to the city. Luo Song and Luo Bai had already led people to chase after her for support. Luo Yu and the coachman sent her to the clinic, and Luo Liu protected her closely.
But her heart was in a knot, she was worried about Meng Yu.
There had never been a moment when she felt so useless as she did now.
Whenever something happens, A Yu has to stand in front of her.
And she turned out to be a mother who abandoned her daughter and ran away.
If anything happened to Ayu, she would never forgive herself.
But if it happened again, she would have to leave first. If she stayed, it would really end Ayu's chance of survival.
At this time, Meng Yu was returning to the city.
She actually wanted to get rid of Ruan Dong and Ruan Xi. If these two people attacked Uncle Zhao once, they would do it again. They were the kind of people who killed people without blinking an eye.
But how could she, a simple, innocent and cute little girl, do such a bloody thing?
After handing it over to Pei Mingqiu, if Pei Mingqiu doesn't do it, she will let Xiao Niuqiu do it.
Fortunately, Pei Mingqiu does things efficiently and effectively, without any procrastination, which is very good!
I don’t know who this person is. Maybe even the name Pei Mingqiu is fake.
I met them on the official road earlier. Their faces were covered with beards and dust, so I couldn't see their true appearance.
This time, they wore human skin masks again. They were so cautious, yet willing to help when they saw injustice.
The human skin mask was of extremely good quality. If it weren't for Meng Yu's superb medical skills, it would probably not have been discovered.
However, no matter who they are, it has nothing to do with me.
On the way, she met Luo Song and Luo Bai, and returned with them.
Zhao Susu finally breathed a sigh of relief when she saw Meng Yu returning safely.
In this small county town of Ningshan County, they actually saw several great martial artists, so Pei Mingqiu and the other two had to be more careful.
Although it was their first time in Ningshan County, they seemed to be very familiar with the place.
They didn't even go to the inn first, but went directly to Ziguang Academy.
A visiting letter appeared on the desk of the headmaster Pei Hongmiao.
Looking at the handwriting on the visiting card, Pei Hongmiao's eyes darkened a little, and he said to the servant: "Please ask them to go to Jingyun Pavilion, I will be there soon!"
Jingyun Pavilion is an attic in Pei Hongmiao's residence. It is three stories high and is a good place for quiet conversation.
Pei Hongmiao threw the visiting card into the stove where water was boiling, watched the flames devour it, and then got up and left.
The little boy was guarding outside the pavilion, and Pei Mingqiu's two followers were also waiting there.
Seeing Pei Hongmiao coming, the two followers bowed and saluted.
Pei Hongmiao nodded slightly and strode upstairs.
His steps were somewhat hurried.
There was only one room on the third floor. Pei Hongmiao paused as he looked at the tall figure standing in front of a painting.
The man turned around and bowed, "Uncle Master!"
Pei Hongmiao cast a scrutinizing gaze on him: "You, you are..."
Pei Mingqiu reached out and touched his face a few times, then peeled off a thin human skin mask. A more handsome face, completely different from the one just now, appeared in front of Pei Hongmiao.
He has sharp eyebrows, bright eyes, a higher nose bridge, and a more three-dimensional handsomeness.
Pei Hongmiao took a few quick steps to help him up, and looked him up and down: "Yun Zhang, it's really you! How have you been these years?"
"I'm fine! Master has lost a lot of weight!"
"My old bones are still strong, but you have grown taller and stronger!"
As he spoke, Pei Hongmiao's voice became lowered.
The two of them reminisced for a while, and Pei Hongmiao finally got to the point: "A few years ago, I heard that you were in the military camp. How did you get away? Have you left?"
Pei Mingqiu shook his head: "Uncle Master, have you heard of the Ghost-faced General? It's just a mask. If someone pretends to be me in the army, it won't be exposed!"
Pei Hongmiao's eyes were slightly stern: "That legend in the army, is it you?"
Five years ago, a ghost-faced general emerged from the Northern Army. It was said that he had come to the barracks seven years ago. At that time, the war in the Northern Territory was intense, and a large number of soldiers were being recruited. A man with a wounded face entered the barracks. He fought the soldiers desperately, charged into battle, and was unstoppable. Step by step, he was promoted from a soldier to a sergeant, a squad leader... a lieutenant, and a general.
But because he became extremely ugly after his injury healed, he always wore a ghost mask and was called the Ghost-faced General.
The ghost-faced general was called Pei Mingqiu. He once set a record of defeating an enemy force of 30,000 with only 5,000 men. Not only the Northern Border Army, but also the imperial court knew of his illustrious reputation.
"your face……"
Pei Mingqiu smiled and said, "The injury on my face was fake. It was just a disguise. My face is not suitable for appearing in front of people for the time being!"
"That's good!" Pei Hongmiao breathed a sigh of relief, but then became worried again, "The northern border is unstable, how did you find time to come here?"
Pei Mingqiu was laughing, but there was a hint of sarcasm in his laughter: "When you win too many battles, people will come to pick the fruits. I have been transferred to the Qingzhou military camp for more than a year. But it is precisely because I am free that I can leave. If I were in the northern border, there would be constant wars and I would be unable to get away!"
Pei Hongmiao sighed deeply. Although he was in such a remote place as Ningshan, he was always well-informed and he knew the situation in the court.
"What are your plans for coming back this time? If you need my help, just let me know!"
"Master, you have been staying in this small academy for more than ten years. Have you ever thought about leaving?"
