The four gatekeepers trembled.

None of them are stupid people, this kind of battle, they must not admit that they have a relationship with Guo.

However, Bai Xiaowen has such eyesight, with the frequency of his heartbeat, breathing, and pulse, he can see who is lying, and his words are as sharp as a blade. In a few words, he locked the main master, the city gate official of the north gate, Deng Shouxian.

"Deng Shouxian, if you cooperate now and confess, I can spare your life. If you delay the arrest of the thief, I will definitely punish you for the crime of fornicating with the Yellow Turban, this is a major crime of extermination, you think clearly!"

"Don't think I can't find out! If you don't confess again, I'll transfer the soldiers guarding the north gate to inquire, it's just to spend more time!"

Deng Shouxian's body trembled, and he knelt down with a puff:

"Lord Assassin Shi, the humble position is just a moment of confusion, and he accepted Guo Cai's gold beads, so he was allowed to go out of the city at night......"

Bai Xiaowen snorted: "He is not the only one who goes out of the city at night, right?

"Yes...... There was ......"

"It's the same tonight?"

"Yes, it's the same tonight, at the second watch, Guo Cai personally took more than ten cars out of the city. ”

Wang Lie on the side said angrily: "As a city gate official, you actually allow chariots to enter and exit the city gate at will, in case there are thieves hidden inside, how can it be good?

Deng Shouxian hurriedly defended: "My lord, every time I check it, I confirm that it contains corn goods, and then I am allowed to let it go, and I will never dare to let the thieves into the city." ”

Bai Xiaowen said in a deep voice: "Every time Guo Cai goes out of the city, when will he come back?"

Deng Shouxian hurriedly said: "It's about four watches." ”

Bai Xiaowen silently calculated the time and said lightly: "I already know." Liu Yi!"

"The last general!" Liu Yi was agitated and came out to clench his fists.

"You take the people of your headquarters and ambush at the north gate of Xiangping City. When Guo Cai's convoy enters the city, be sure to hold it!"

"Yes......"

agreed, Liu Yi was still a little lacking in confidence: "Childe, as you said, Guo is the Yellow Turban thief, maybe he will know some demon methods, in case he gets away with it......"

Bai Xiaowen nodded slightly: "I will send the Eastern Ying Crow Girl under my command to help." This crow girl is a master of the Dao Sect and has strong means. Even if the Yellow Turban Demon dares to play tricks, he won't be able to get any benefits. All you have to do is bring more soldiers and horses. ”

"Obey!" Liu Yi secretly worked hard in his heart, this was the first major event since he surrendered.

Bai Xiaowen looked at Deng Shouxian: "Your family is in Xiangping City, right?"

Deng Shouxian's face was as white as paper, and cold sweat was dripping on his forehead: "Yes...... begging Lord Shi to spare his life, the humble position is just a moment of confusion, and he will never dare again!"

Bai Xiaowen snorted: "I will allow you to make meritorious service and return to the north gate immediately, and pretend that nothing has happened." Guo Cai will inevitably come back from the north gate, and when you answer, don't make a flaw. As long as you earn him into the city, I will spare you the death penalty!"

Bai Xiaowen added in his heart, the death penalty can be avoided, but you still have to be punished heavily, at least you have to spit out the oil and water you have looted over the years.

Deng Shouxian was overjoyed, and hurriedly kowtowed: "Thank you for your humble position!"

Bai Xiaowen stood up and looked around the hall.

Everyone bowed their heads in awe.

"If you want to capture the Yellow Turban thief, this matter is related to the safety of Liaodong, Youzhou, and even Hebei, and you can't take it lightly! Except for Deng Shouxian, the other three city gate officials are not allowed to leave without permission, Liu Yi, you send more people to watch these three people!"

"Yes!" Liu Yi replied awe-inspiringly.

Bai Xiaowen said again: "The stakes are very high, I want to come to the scene in person." Wang and Bing can go back to bed. ”

Wang Lie and Bing Yuan are both smart people, and they almost rejected at the same time.

Bing Yuan said: "The son wants to come to take the thief in person, and the two of us should follow, how can there be any reason to go back to sleep in peace." ”

Bai Xiaowen nodded and said, "Okay, then it's hard work." ”

In fact, Bai Xiaowen just wanted Wang and Bing to follow, not that they could play any role, but to avoid leaking the news.

These two people are talents who have just been recruited, and Bai Xiaowen does not treat them like he treats the three city gate officials.

Fortunately, both of them had clear eyebrows and eyes, and they did not go back to "go to bed" stupidly, but expressed their intention to follow, so that if the news leaked, it could at least prove that the two were not accomplices in the Yellow Turban - don't think that there is no need to clear the suspicion. Bing Yuan was still a little apprehensive at this time, after all, he and Guo Cai had some intersections.

Liu Yi led the elite soldiers of the headquarters and secretly ambushed at the north gate, the city gate official Deng Shouxian stabilized his mind and continued to be on duty, while Bai Xiaowen took two scribes to observe secretly in the dark at the north gate.

Delifa followed Liu Yi's side, about two hundred meters away from Bai Xiaowen. At this time, the "Dongying Crow Girl" transformed by Deli Law is still a trick for Bai Xiaowen to use his summoning methods, which can ensure that Bai Xiaowen's identity as the second son of Yuan Xi is less questioned.

This time it dragged on for a long time, and it wasn't until the fifth watch that Guo Cai's convoy slowly returned.

Deng Shouxian replied cautiously and did not show any flaws.

Guo Cai didn't expect that in the middle of the night, he had already been exposed, and the city had become a tiger's den in Longtan.

When Guo Cai entered the city, Liu Yi gave an order, and hundreds of elite soldiers shouted, threw nets and hooks together, and immediately took down Guo Cai and others.

Guo Cai does know some Taoist skills - this is the information that Bai Xiaowen secretly threw out his insight and saw.

However, Guo Cai was lucky, and did not decisively cast the spell, and when he was taken down by Liu Yi, he shouted that he was not guilty.

Liu Yi would not be polite to him, and tied Guo Cai and more than 20 members of the convoy with cowhide ropes to ensure that they had no ability to resist.

Bai Xiaowen breathed a sigh of relief.

However, the suspicion in his heart was deeper.

Guo Cai was captured without much resistance...... I'm afraid this is a point. ”

"The key to cracking the dragon pattern gold box is not on him. ”

"Otherwise, there is no way to explain the difficulty of the 'Mystery in the Box' quest and the Gundam A-rank Hero Branch!"

Don't think that the A-level hero branch can be passed with your eyes closed, this represents an extremely high difficulty, and the awakened person who has the ability to pass the A-level hero branch is definitely one in a million - to be precise, even the strong teams in the first division may not be sure to break through this difficulty when exploring the spirit world.

Bai Xiaowen interrogated Guo Cai overnight. He vaguely felt that the key to the dragon pattern gold box should be in the Yellow Turban Thief outside the city.

You know, Guo is the leader of the spiritual specialty type!

If such a leader can be instructed to act as a dangerous inner line to raise food and supplies for the army, then among the Yellow Turban thieves outside the city, there must be a stronger and higher-status commander.

Especially when Bai Xiaowen contacted the disappearance of Zhang Jiao, the chief boss of the Yellow Turban Army, the great sage and mentor, there was even more speculation in his heart.

"Guo Cai, I already know your details. Let me ask you, where is Zhang Jiao?"
