Chapter 197: Planning the Rescue
"What now?" asked the fat man in a low voice. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
"Let's see. Nanfeng said, the man fifty zhang away was dressed as a martial artist, he should be about thirty years old, sitting in the shade of a big tree, and there were several large bluestones not far from it.
"The man is dozing off, let's go around and restrain him. The fat man said.
"And then?" asked Nanfeng.
The fat man didn't answer, he only found that there was a chance to restrain the other party, but he didn't think about what to do after restraining the other party.
Nanfeng fixed his eyes into the distance, the man carried a single knife with him, and placed it not far away, the single knife was very ordinary, not a sharp weapon. Looking at the man himself, his appearance and clothing do not look like a master of hidden stunts.
The man was carrying no other items other than a single knife, no baggage, and no water urn or dry food around.
At this time, it was early summer, and the grass and trees in the mountains were vigorous, and there were inconspicuous trampling marks in the area where the man was, and the trampling marks were mainly concentrated between the position where the man was currently sitting and the pile of bluestones not far away.
"This person is just an errand runner, not a master, and the vent of the secret room should be in that pile of bluestone. Nanfeng whispered.
"I still don't understand, what are you looking for the vent?" asked the fat man.
"At present, Uncle Wang is likely to be trapped in the secret room, and it is unknown how long he has been trapped, but according to Li Chaozong's movements, Uncle Wang has been trapped for at least five days, if there is no food in the secret room, Uncle Wang is now estimated to be starving to death, if the vent is not very small, we can send food from the vent to the secret room. Nanfeng said.
The fat man casually pinched a thatch and put it in his mouth, "This is indeed a solution, but I think that since the Medicine King has taken refuge in the secret room, he should prepare food and drink inside." ā
Nanfeng shook his head, "Not necessarily, there are so many masters under the mountain to protect him, Uncle Wang thinks he can sit back and relax, this secret room should just be a warehouse for him to store things, not a place for him to take refuge, but he was forced to hide in a hurry." ā
"If there's no food in it, we'll have to send it in quickly, but don't starve this guy to death. The fat man said.
Nanfeng nodded, and then began to bow back, "Let's go, get out of here first." ā
The two of them carefully retreated, and when they reached a safe place, Nanfeng said, "We don't know how big the vent is, and we can't observe it from a close distance, once we restrain that person, others may be aware of it, so we can't touch him until we're ready, let's go, go out first and prepare to eat, and then start when we get ready to eat." ā
The fat man nodded in agreement, and the two detoured to the front mountain and returned the same way.
When they arrived at the county seat outside the city, it was almost dark, and the two of them found a food shop, and the shopkeeper made dry food overnight.
For the sake of insect prevention and moisture prevention, the vent cannot be opened very large, the food is naturally as small as possible, and the loose fried rice is the best choice, which is fried for dozens of catties.
There is also the soup, a pot of very thin rice soup, and I am afraid that it will not flow down, so I dare not make it too thick.
While the shopkeeper was cooking, Nanfeng borrowed a pen and paper, wrote down the situation outside, and Li Chaozong's invitation to Mr. Gongyu of Momen, and briefly told him what he would do later.
"Don't forget to write your name," the fat man came over with a rice bowl, "if you don't write your name, how will he know who sent it." ā
"It's going to have to be written. Nanfeng nodded, it seems detached to do good deeds without leaving a name, but in fact, there is a suspicion of selling fame and reputation to sensationalize, not to mention that the two of them have a plan, and they have to write it.
Nanfeng didn't have a surname, so he could only write his name, and after writing it, he handed the written letter to the fat man.
The fat man drank all the rice porridge, put down his rice bowl and took the letterhead, reading it column by column from right to left.
"If he burns the fire and smokes, do you really go to grab the bird cage?" The fat man frowned, Nanfeng wrote a rescue plan on the letter, because the two themselves were not capable of rescuing, they could only rely on external forces, Nanfeng's plan was to release the carrier pigeons in those wooden houses in front of the mountain, and invite the masters of the various gate factions to help, if Uncle Wang agreed to his approach, he would try to produce smoke in the secret room, and if Nanfeng saw smoke floating out of the vent, he would try to release those carrier pigeons.
"There is no other way, send the food in to treat the symptoms but not the root cause, and when Li Chaozong comes back, Uncle Wang will be unlucky, and only by inviting the masters of various sects can he draw salary. Nanfeng picked up the fat man's rice bowl and went to the back room to serve porridge.
When he returned, the fat man had already finished reading the letter, "Why did you still write my Dharma number?"
"We have to let him know that we did this, otherwise what if he only gives one pill when it's done?" Nanfeng sat down from the table.
"It's not going to be easy," the fat man pouted and shook his head, "Don't say anything else, just talk about grabbing the bird cage, if you touch the bird cage, those people in the rivers and lakes will definitely kill us both." ā
"There's no way around it, we can't beat people, so we can only invite people over. Nanfeng put down his rice bowl and took the brush again, "You go out to buy a candle and come back, this letter has to be sealed with wax." ā
The fat man nodded in response and went out to buy wax, at this time candles were very scarce and expensive, ordinary people used oil lamps, candles were not common.
The second letter was very few words, only a few words, which meant to tell Uncle Wang that they had seen the smoke and would find a way to release the carrier pigeon as soon as possible.
When the fat man came back from buying candles, the two of them lit the candles and used wax to fold the envelope into two wax balls the size of a finger.
After doing this, Nanfeng picked up the porridge bowl, but he didn't drink the porridge, but was stunned with the rice bowl.
The fat man put fried rice in his pocket, and filled the rice porridge in the water jar, and when he saw that Nanfeng hadn't eaten yet, he urged, "What do you want, eat quickly, eat quickly, and leave quickly." ā
It's okay if the fat man doesn't say it, but as soon as he says it, Nanfeng put down his rice bowl and frowns even tighter.
"What's wrong?" the fat man leaned in.
"Nothing, let's go. Southwind stood up.
The two left the food shop with dry food and rice porridge, and walked north, which was located in the hinterland of the Liang State, the city was not high, and the officers and soldiers did not defend well at night, so they jumped out from the northwest of the city wall.
There was a moon in the sky and a wind in the forest, and the two of them walked quickly and very fast.
"What the hell are you thinking?" asked the fat man, the two of them grew up together, and they couldn't be more cooked, and although the fat man didn't know what Nanfeng was thinking, he knew that he was definitely thinking about things.
"Once you do it, you will have a mortal enmity with Li Chaozong. Nanfeng said.
"It's as if you're a living enemy with Li Chaozong now," the fat man pouted disdainfully.
"I'm afraid of injuring my eldest brother. Nanfeng said, before Lu Pingchuan let go of the two, it must have caused the dissatisfaction of the Li family, Lu Pingchuan is still unknown, if Li Chaozong's affairs are bad, Li Chaozong will inevitably hate Lu Pingchuan even more, because if Lu Pingchuan had not let go of the two that day, there would not have been so many branches.
"The eldest brother should have led the troops to the battle by now, Li Chaozong can't scold the eldest brother before running into battle, besides, this matter was done by the two of us, what does it have to do with the eldest brother?"
Nanfeng still has concerns, but he is helpless, "Zhuge Chanjuan may also be on the mountain, if reinforcements come, don't take her too." ā
"So you're thinking about your wife?" the fat man looked suddenly enlightened.
"She's not my wife," Nanfeng Zhengse retorted, slowing down his tone, "But Zhuge Chanjuan is still good to me, before in Qilin Town, after that fire rain, she was worried about my safety and eagerly ran back to find me." There are also the two Taoists sent by the Yuqing Sect to arrest us before, who may have also been poisoned by her. ā
"You have a lot of ideas, you can figure it out yourself. "The fat man is lazy and lazy.
When he was on the way, Nanfeng had been thinking about how to make Zhuge Chanjuan aware of the danger and leave as soon as possible, and at the same time be able to rescue Uncle Wang, these two things were conflicting, because he couldn't get close to the small courtyard in the mountains, so he could only try to notify him on the periphery, and at the same time as notifying Zhuge Chanjuan, Li Chaozong and Wang Zhong would also be aware of it, and once he noticed it, he might be prevented from releasing carrier pigeons to rescue Uncle Wang.
It was the third watch when the two returned to Fengming Mountain, Nanfeng did not rush to approach the vent, but stopped from a distance, he has no aura cultivation now, he can't see at night, and he has to wait until dawn to do it, and the most important thing is that the carrier pigeons in those houses under the mountain will only be taken outside the house to breathe after dawn.
In the early hours of the morning, the south wind woke up the fat man, "Get up and discuss the details." ā
The fat man scratched the mosquito-bitten bullae on his face, "You say, I listen." ā
"After a while, leave the mouth alive, knock the man unconscious, and then pour the dry food and rice porridge into it as soon as possible, and immediately run down the mountain after seeing the smoke, and start to release the carrier pigeon together, secretly release it at first, and release it as soon as possible after being discovered, and don't stop when beaten, the more carrier pigeons are released, the more people come. Nanfeng said.
"Good. The fat man nodded in agreement.
"It's up to you to do it for a while, and when you hit, you have to make sure that you are stunned, and you can't be stunned for too long. The south wind admonished.
"What does it mean that you can't be dizzy for too long?" the fat man puzzled.
"I have to let him wake up and go back to report the news, I don't want the martial artists of the Liang State to block Wang Zhong and the others in Fengming Mountain, I have to let them find out about the danger and withdraw in time before the arrival of the masters of the various sects. Nanfeng said.
"You're for your wife, aren't you?" asked the fat man with a smile.
"Let's go, the hour is almost up, and everyone under the mountain is awake. Southwind stood up.
The two of them moved westward with the dry food, and when they reached fifty feet away, the fat man put down his pocket, and tiptoed to the man who was napping.
The wee hours of the morning were the most sleepy, and when the man heard the movement and looked back, the fat man was swinging his fist, and the big fist of the bowl hit the forehead and fell down directly.
Nanfeng trotted over with food, first tried the man's snort, and then came to the bluestone, pushed away a few large stones, and sure enough, found a hole in the mountain rock, this hole is the size of a cup, round, obviously artificially excavated, but at this time this hole has been blocked with a wet cloth.
Seeing this situation, Nanfeng's heart was half cold, it has been several days, and Uncle Wang may have been suffocated to death......
