After Li Shimin's knife failed, there was no confusion and incomprehension in his eyes. Behind him, the 'Nine True Illusions' once again converged into two chains and probed into the depths of the smoke.

And just after that, he heard a muffled grunt again, as if he was holding back the pain. Shaktimoto followed suit and swept into the source of the snort, causing a 'bang' explosion, mixed with the sound of the iron armor shattering and parts and fragments whizzing.

But at this time, Li Shimin's face was not at all happy. It's just because his pair of dragon sparrow knives only hit the first knife, and then several consecutive slashes failed.

But at this time, Li Shimin could no longer sense any qi in the red ink armor.

The next moment, a violent wind suddenly blew up, forcibly blowing away the smoke that had spread. Li Shimin found that there was no trace of the woman here.

"This woman should have used a magic weapon of the space transfer type, or a talisman—"

Yuan Tianhao said as he walked over from a distance: "I'm ashamed that I couldn't keep her." But I guess she must not have escaped far, and must be within this Tong Pass, no more than 500 zhang around here. In addition, I can conclude that whether it is a magic weapon, or a talisman, or a spell, she will not be able to use it a second time,"

He also made a move just now, and the first painful snort after the red ink armor turned into smoke was derived from Yuan Tianhao's spell.

Therefore, the process of the woman's escape, Yuan Tianhao watched the whole process, and he knew it all.

"It should be said that it is the poor monk who is ashamed! It is the poor monk who is careless and actually lets this woman sneak close to the side of the Taoist master. ”

Shi Benwu's face showed a slight look of shame. What he is now serving as Li Shimin's close bodyguard. But it wasn't until Li Shimin informed him with a spell just now that he was shocked to realize that his master's tent had entered the thieves.

This makes Shi Benwu simply embarrassed, he was also a famous master in the north before he became a monk, and after he became a monk, he was also the first King Kong Hall of Shaolin Temple, but today's gutter capsized and was regarded as nothing by a woman.

"But the knife just now, the poor monk is completely sure, and it has already hit her hard. ”

The last knife, Shi Benwu shot with hatred, so he was extraordinarily domineering and ruthless.

Li Shimin didn't mean to blame, he knew the woman's ability to hide, even the luxurious master group around the queen couldn't find this woman in advance, which shows how outstanding her ability is.

In addition, this woman's ability to escape is also first-class and powerful.

That is a helpless character even Zhang Zhongjian, of course, the former did not go all out at that time.

"Inform Yu Wendang and ask him to immediately block the city, temporarily prohibit entry and exit, and strictly investigate all the people in this Tongguan. ”

Li Shimin said as he removed the ink armor on his body: "Since the escape method she used can't go too far, then this woman must be in Tongguan now." ”

The reason why he had such confidence was that he had indeed been slashed with a heavy knife just now, and because one of his dragon sparrow knives had been smeared with poison, although it was not a particularly strong toxin, but it was difficult to remove it because the poison broke out quickly.

If it is a battlefield fight, or a head-on fight, this move may be a little despicable, but Li Shimin thinks about how he really doesn't need to abide by any rules for a sneaky thief who enters without telling him.

"Erlang, are you alright?"

Zhang Yurou also arrived later, hurriedly ran to Li Shimin's side, and stared at him nervously up and down.

But then she turned red and looked away. Only Li Shimin is completely naked now.

This made Zhang Yurou feel embarrassed, but in addition to this, she was slightly upset. I thought that the figure of the person I wanted was really not ordinarily good.

"I'm fine! ”

Li Shimin shook his head, and with the same embarrassment, he took out a set of clothes from the Purple Qi Qiankun Pagoda and put them on his body. Then he frowned and looked at the tub next to him,

"It's a pity that this bucket of good medicine—"

This is also 20,000 yuan, as his thunder refining body continues to deepen. The previous medicinal bath recipe could no longer help him recover from his dark injuries without hidden dangers, and he had to add more rare elixirs.

But the first time he tried a new drug, he was ruined by someone.

But what made him even more annoyed was that he had to spare enough energy to deal with this woman. The effect of his thunder refining body this time is almost equal to nothing, and the previous tempering and stimulation are far from reaching his limit, so naturally he can't stimulate his potential.

Zhang Yurou was relieved, but a layer of green air floated on her face.

The assassin actually lurked beside Li Shimin, and it was just when he was preparing to refine his body, which shows how dangerous the situation is this time.

She regretted a little, she shouldn't have left with Zhou Yu before. If she hadn't pulled Zhou Yu and wanted to try her dragon bone Dao soldier's ability, this incident would not have happened.

And then Zhang Yurou noticed the ground, the broken red silk threads.

"The Red Whisk Girl again?"

"The Red Whisk Girl? ”

Li Shimin laughed, and then said with a calm expression: "This woman is good at concealment, I think only those people who use Yuwen as their subordinates, they can't find them." Next, you have to work hard to pull out this red whisk girl. If possible, try to keep a mouth alive, and if you can't, it doesn't matter if you kill it. ”

Li Shimin believes that this woman must be related to the Duke of Chu State, and her status is not low. If you can capture it alive, you will definitely gain a lot. But he won't let his subordinates take extra risks. If you can't do it, then you have to kill it.

※ ※ ※ ※

Yuwen gave Li Shimin a lot of face, and as soon as he received his news, he ordered the closure of the inner and outer doors of Tongguan. Then the soldiers in the barracks poured into the streets, scraping the ground and pulling trees and roots, searching and inspecting every corner of the city. Whether it is in the sky or on the ground, even the private cabinets are taken care of one by one.

But to Li Shimin's and Yuan Tianhao's surprise, for a whole afternoon after that, they couldn't find any clues about the Red Whisk Girl.

"It's strange that we didn't even find a single trace of this woman's blood. ”

When everyone gathered in front of Li Shimin again, Shi Benwu said with a puzzled expression: "Speaking of which, the Sprinkle family is still a little confident in finding people. In the past, I practiced a secret method, and as long as I saw it, I could be prepared to sense it within five miles. ”

His subtext was that the red-whisked girl had probably left Tongguan. After all, Tongguan, plus the outer city and several barracks, is only three miles away.

Shi Benwu has even begun to wonder if he has really hit the red whisk girl hard.

If the latter can really only move to a place within 500 zhang of Li Shimin's tent, it means that this person can not only escape calmly after this, but also have the strength to clean up the traces.

Yuan Tianhao fell into contemplation: "I still don't think that she escaped from Tongguan." I didn't feel anything, but I felt it in the underworld. This woman must be hiding somewhere inside the coffin,"

After Zhang Yurou heard this, not only did her eyes light up: "It turns out that Mr. Yuan, you are also like this?" I don't know why, I also feel that the slut didn't leave around here. ”

She wanted to only talk about the martial arts cultivation of divine thoughts, spiritual sense, qi and machine induction, and Shi Benwu, which were still far inferior to their magicians, even if it was the so-called secret method.

When Li Shimin heard this, the corners of his lips twitched. I thought that Zhang Yurou was a quick three-grade magician, but now the foundation is not stable, where is the ability to sense the traces of the Red Whisk Girl.

This girl is just unwilling, she wants to pull out the red whisk girl and find her to settle the score.

After shaking his head, he called the people in charge from all directions to him and asked them one by one. And after only a moment, he also frowned, judging from the current situation, the red whisk girl may have fled.

But Li Shimin was also unwilling, you paced left and right in place, falling into contemplation. And just a moment later, out of the corner of his eye, he inadvertently saw a building,

"The official post also searched carefully, right?"

"Exactly!" A general dressed as a lieutenant bowed his hand slightly in front of Li Shimin: "There is a senior general over there who is in charge of the team, and I asked myself if there was anything missing, but the last general did not find anything abnormal." ”

Li Shimin unexpectedly continued to ask: "What officials are stationed in the post house now? Their entourage and even the cages have been thoroughly inspected and reviewed?"

"General Hui, now in the official post, there is only one driver stationed in the department, who is here to inspect the horses and armor in Tongguan. As for his retinue and salute—"

When the captain said this, he couldn't help but glance at Shi Benwu with a little hesitation: "I opened all the cages one by one, and the rest of the entourage also asked and compared them one by one according to the 'passing place'. ”

The so-called 'transit office', also known as the road guide, is a traffic certificate that must be presented when passing through the land and water passes.

In order to ensure normal commercial and trade exchanges, the Great Sui inspected travelers to prevent evasion of national taxes, evasion of servitude, human trafficking, etc., and continued the system of 'passing through the office' of the previous dynasty. It is stipulated that ordinary people are not allowed to move around the territory at will.

If they have such a need, they can apply to the government and then follow the prescribed route. Otherwise, it's not going to work.

In addition to the role of the pass, the 'pass' paper also records the individual's place of origin and appearance. In more detail, there are also painted graphics.

The lieutenant suddenly remembered that if the entourage of the driver was counterfeited, it seemed that it would be difficult for him to distinguish it.

However, when he searched at the time, Shakmoto was next to him. This big master who was by Li Shimin's side didn't seem to notice any suspicious clues.
