Chapter 353: Someone Eavesdropped
"We don't know. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info a month ago, General Yuan left Jidan City and went here. But three days after General Yuan's departure, you sent another message asking for help.
In other words, General Yuan disappeared on the way here, and when we investigated, we found no trace of it, which is very strange. Therefore, I have come this time specifically to investigate this matter. I wonder if General Xiao has any clues? Yuan Shanjia said.
Her eyes shot straight at Xiao Yi, with a slight deep meaning, and the sun shone on her gaze, refracting a scorching light.
"It's strange! How did it disappear halfway through? Could it be that someone from the Van Dan Kingdom made a move? Xiao Yi obviously didn't notice Yuan Shanjia's vague gaze, and lowered his head in thought.
"The Van Dan Kingdom suddenly strengthened its attack in those days, which made us anxious and sent another letter to Jidan City."
"I don't know who did it. But what is certain is that General Yuan was accompanied by a team of more than 100 people, plus grain and grass, and disappeared together, without the slightest sign. Yuan Shanjia's expression did not move, and he said, constantly emphasizing that Yuan Tian disappeared without a trace of it.
She didn't notice anything different from Xiao Yi's expression, "I want to ask General Xiao if he found anything different during that time?" ”
Xiao Yi shook his head, his face did not change, and his face remained stiff. Despite his agitated tone, the muscles of his entire face were solidified, as if this was his true colors.
"Except for the sudden intensification of the offensive of the Van Dan Kingdom, there is nothing special. If there is something special, it is that General Ben has been waiting for General Yuan's arrival after sending out a distress letter. But I didn't wait, and then I sent three or four letters in a row, all of which disappeared, and the person who sent the letter was gone. ”
"Therefore, General Ben thought that General Yuan was not ready to support this side. Or maybe it's over there in Jidan City, something bad is happening too. ”
"How so?" Yuan Shanjia was taken aback and surprised, "Mr. Lin always replies to the letter." Did someone on the road kidnap them too? ”
Gone without a trace? That's impossible. Uncle Shi said that he sent a letter to Qingchengguan, and he also specifically said about his father's disappearance, hoping that they would help find clues.
But now this Xiao Yi actually said that he didn't receive a reply, either the letter was robbed on the way, and the messenger was killed, or there was something wrong with this Xiao Yi!
Moreover, if the person who sent the letter was missing, why did the next few letters not say anything about it?
When Xiao Yi heard this, he couldn't help but widen his eyes, like a copper bell, his breath was a little unstable.
If it is as you say, then there is only one possibility. It seems that this matter was undoubtedly done by Van Danguo. It must be that they want to cut off the support of Qingcheng Pass and take Qingcheng Pass in one fell swoop! ”
Yuan Shanjia looked anxious, and seemed to feel a little tricky, "But the matter of General Xiao sending people to Qingcheng Pass must be kept secret." How can it be known to others? Isn't it ......."
Yuan Shanjia didn't finish speaking, but looked at Xiao Yi with a burning look.
Xiao Yi's eyes flashed with a dangerous light, revealing a fierce look, "It seems that some of the general's cronies have betrayed." ”
He slammed the table hard, as if with some grief and indignation. "Damn it! Don't let General Ben find out that it was the bastard who betrayed General Ben! General Ben is going to have him torn to pieces! ”
He roared helplessly.
"General Xiao, now it's the right thing to find out the spy first, if there is a spy among your cronies, then he must also know some clues about General Yuan.
In this case, if General Xiao finds any clues, please let us know in time. Yuan Shanjia said solemnly.
"When General Ben finds the spies, the roar of torture, if he finds any clues, he will definitely tell you." Xiao Yi nodded and agreed, and the muscles on his face were even stiffer, as if they were angry and became a little distorted.
"Thank you very much General Xiao for your cooperation." Yuan Shanjia hugged his fists.
"No, it should be General Ben who thanks you. If you hadn't arrived in time this time, our Qingcheng Pass would have been broken. Xiao Yi looked at Yuan Shanjia gratefully, but there was a faint trace of evil in his eyes.
"This is what we should do. After General Yuan disappeared halfway, we always wanted to send people to support, but the Red Turban Thieves kept harassing Jidan City, so we couldn't be distracted, and in the end only we came to investigate General Yuan's affairs. Yuan Shanjia and Xiao Yi mediated, deliberately ignoring that trace of evil spirit.
Xiao Yi raised his eyebrows suspiciously, "What is the red scarf thief?" Snitch? ”
Yuan Shanjia nodded, "Yes." At the junction of Jidan City and Xiayang City, there was originally a bandit's den. A month earlier, the bandits had suddenly descended the mountain, calling themselves the Red Turbans, and had recruited a large number of displaced young men to form a large team. After General Yuan disappeared, he occupied Xiayang City. ”
Xiao Yi was quite surprised, "I didn't expect this to be the case!" ”
He frowned tightly and sighed, the whole person seemed to be more than ten years old, and it looked a little vicissitudes.
There was even some silver hair on his head, which contrasted with his dark skin. "Now it's really an internal and external trouble! Presumably, Mr. Lin does have difficulties on his side, and it is normal that he can't divide many troops. ”
"By the way, haven't you asked your son's surname yet?" Xiao Yi changed the subject.
Yuan Shanjia said: "Don't have a long name." General Xiao called me Chang Le. ”
Xiao Yi nodded, and sighed again, "You don't have a place to live yet, General Ben will immediately ask someone to arrange it for you." "Someone! General Ben remembers that there were many courtyards vacant before, right? ”
The old man who walked in and thought he was an old man, dressed in a kudzu robe, leaned over, "Yes, General." ”
"This man is a veteran who has lost his family, but he can't go to war again, so he asked him to do some chores for General Ben." Xiao Yi looked at Yuan Shanjia and looked at the old man and explained.
Yuan Shanjia nodded and casually admired, "General Xiao is merciful. ”
The moment she saw the old man, she seemed to feel a hint of danger. But it was fleeting, like raindrops into the sea, and there was no more movement.
"Go down with the king. Tomorrow there will be news, and General Ben will inform you. ”
The visitor took Yuan Shanjia to a house not far from the barracks.
The house is not particularly large, just a small courtyard, and there are only five rooms in total.
It was dusty inside, and it was supposed to be a house left by the militia who had died in battle, a little dilapidated, and it could shelter from the wind and rain.
It took everyone half an hour to clean the house and barely accommodate people.
He also packed up the things left by the previous owner and put in order what could be used.
After all, they want to live here for a while, and they always need some living utensils.
Ran Zhu's brows moved slightly, and he was a little dissatisfied with his surroundings.
These things are left behind by dead people, and it is really not good for young lady to use.
And how can more than 30 people live in such a small courtyard?
"Childe, let's go ask for another yard." Ran Zhu suggested.
Of these five courtyards, the young lady lives in one, and there are only four left.
If you want to live 34 people, you have to live 8 people in each room, or even 9 people, and you can't live at all. Do you want them to sleep in the yard?
Yuan Shanjia looked at it and nodded, "What Ran Zhu said is right......
Qi Li hurriedly said: "No need, let's just set up a tent outside, gather together, and it's safer." ”
They carry everything they have with them for camping, and it is not particularly troublesome to set up a tent.
After Qi Li finished speaking, he beckoned his subordinates to unload their household belongings, put them together in twos and threes, and began to set up tents.
In fact, apart from the fact that there is no bed, this tent is good to sleep on, and it is also mosquito proof.
Others set up tents outside, and Yuan Shanjia pulled Ran Zhu Feiwen into the house.
"Uncle Fei, have you found anything?" Yuan Shanjia asked.
She kept the windows and doors shut.
When Qi Li saw it, he voluntarily guarded the door for them.
"There's not much to discover for the time being." Fei Wen's eyes were a little hesitant, but he didn't express his doubts.
Yuan Shanjia noticed it, but he didn't ask directly, but continued: "I found that there are some spies in this city. When we went up to the castle tower, I always felt that a gaze was always following me, staring at me with creeps. ”
Fei Wen frowned, "Why didn't Childe say it at that time?" ”
"At that time, it was not appropriate to talk about it." Yuan Shanjia shook his head. If you say it at the time, it's useless.
There are so many people below, how can they be found.
Fei Wen thought of the scene at that time, and he was also silent.
"Uncle Fei, I suspect that there is something wrong with that General Xiao." Yuan Shanjia said to Fei Wen again.
"Indeed, Childe and his subordinates thought of going together." Fei Wen was stunned for a moment, stroking his sword.
He also felt that Xiao Yi didn't seem to be a general, except for his appearance, his behavior was a little weird.
Suddenly, Yuan Shanjia's ears moved.
A2 told her that someone was eavesdropping on the other side of the wall next to the bed.
Yuan Shanjia was facing away from the bed, and her eyes sank.
was careless, and didn't even find out at the first time.
However, if there is a problem with this General Xiao, he knows that we suspect him, and he will definitely react as soon as possible.
Fei Wen was also stunned, obviously also heard Jia Er's transmission.
Yuan Shanjia glanced at Fei Wen slightly, asking him not to show his flaws, and then instructed Ran Zhu: "Ran Zhu, send a message to Mr. Lin, I'm worried that this General Xiao won't let us go easily." It is very likely that General Yuan's affairs also have something to do with him. ”
Ran Zhu and Yuan Shanjia have always cooperated tacitly, and as soon as she heard it, she knew Yuan Shanjia's plan.
"Yes, Childe." She should arrive, pull the door open, and go out.
Fei Wen is also an old fritter, his eyes have not changed in the slightest, and he looks the same as normal.
"It is true that a message should be sent to Mr. Lin, and it is better to ask Mr. Lin to send some people over."
"I guess it's hard. The Red Turban Thief won't give up easily. What's more, we hit He Xun's left and right hands hard before, and he will definitely not easily extinguish the fire. ”
"How?" Yuan Shanjia asked, pouring the bitter tea into his mouth.
The tea was sent by Xiao Yi not long ago, and although it was not moldy, it was not a good tea.
"Sure enough, as Miss expected, the carrier pigeon was shot down not long after it took off." Ran Zhu said.
She didn't use a rear gray harrier, but an ordinary carrier pigeon.
After putting the letter in the bamboo tube on the pigeon's feet, she hid in the corner and watched, and it was not long before the pigeon was shot down and picked up by a man in brown.
The man covered his face with his sleeves and bent over, unable to distinguish his height or appearance.
