Volume 1 Cold Front, Troubled Times Chapter 0116 The undercurrent is surging

On the streets of Suining, a team of ten people was patrolling, they were wearing cyan armor, holding spears in their hands, their expressions were cold, their steps were neat, and their gestures carried a sense of slaughter, and they knew at a glance that they were well-trained elite soldiers.

Wherever the procession passed, people consciously avoided it, not daring to hinder or offend in the slightest.

At this time, a pedestrian asked suspiciously: "Strange, why did the patrol come to the south of the town? Haven't they always patrolled the north of the town?"

A person next to him said: "Hey, brother, haven't you been out for a long time? That team just now was not the Zhenbei Patrol, but the border army that had just arrived in Suining. Half a month ago, a thousand-strong border army escorted the people of the Medical Alliance and the Martial Arts Institute to Suining, and by the way, took over the defense of Suining. Since they came, the security of the whole Suining has also been much better, and in the past, some hooligans and gangsters and bullies were all sent to Guan Da Prison as long as they made trouble. ”

The pedestrian said puzzledly: "I can understand why the people of the Martial Arts Academy also need military escorts, aren't they masters?

A fur seller next to him suddenly interjected and said: "They are good masters, but they can't stand the crowd! At the beginning, they escorted the people of the medical alliance to Suining, but they were surrounded by the Xiban army halfway, and they finally managed to break out of the encirclement, but they were all injured lightly. If there is no border army escort, I am afraid that before they arrive in Suining, all of them have been intercepted and killed by the robbers on the road, and all of them will be killed and wounded. ”

The pedestrian asked in surprise, "Are the robbers and robbers of these years so bold, and they actually dare to intercept and kill the people of the Medical Alliance and the Martial Academy?"

"The situation is chaotic, and there are bandits and bandits everywhere who are not subject to the rule of the imperial court, and who among those thieves is not? It is not impossible to intercept and kill the people of the Medical Alliance and the Martial Academy. ”

The peddler pouted and said, "As long as the people of the Medical Alliance have serious casualties in Yunxia, the headquarters of the Medical Alliance will definitely be dissatisfied with the Yunxia Imperial Court, and maybe they will cut off their assistance to Yunxia in all aspects." Not to mention the Martial Academy, those robbers who killed the Martial Academy, not only could they snatch a large number of rich rewards reserved for the champions of the Martial Arts Guild in their hands, but they could also express their dissatisfaction with the monopoly of the Martial Academy by the wealthy families in Yunxia. As long as something happens to the people of the Medical Alliance and the Martial Academy, it will definitely seriously blow the prestige of the Yunxia Imperial Court and shake the foundation of Yunxia. ”

At this moment, several people in white robes appeared on the street in the distance, and when the border army team saw them, they couldn't help but stop, clasped their fists at each other, and took the initiative to avoid them. Several white-robed people were followed by more than a dozen warriors in different costumes, and they followed behind the white-robed people, as if they were protecting each other.

When the pedestrian saw this, he asked the vendor, "Are those from the Medical League?"

The peddler cast a respectful look at those white-robed people and nodded, "Of course, they are all senior physicians of the Medical Alliance, otherwise how could that fierce and vicious soldier be so respectful to them." Seeing that those people didn't, they were the masters of the Martial Academy and several sects, who specialized in protecting doctors. ”

The pedestrian asked, "The people from the Martial Academy are here to recruit students, and by the way, I understand the people who protect the Medical Alliance." But how can there still be masters of the sect to come to Suining? They really want to recruit disciples, they can completely go elsewhere, little Suining, even if the dragon is hidden and the tiger is crouching, how many seedlings are there?"

"Hey, who knows?" the peddler shook his head and retracted his gaze, and began to shout: "Good fur, fox skin, wolf skin, sheepskin, tiger skin!

......

Not far from the stall selling furs is a restaurant, which is called Drunken No Return.

Drunk and not returned, he has been open in Suining for three years, and his business has been thriving.

Today, the first and second floors are full, and the third floor is occupied by a dozen big men who call themselves merchants. At this time, the dozen or so big men were sitting around the two empty tables on the street, looking at each other one by one, silent.

On the stairs on the third floor, there were two big men, who were standing there murderously with machetes in their hands, scaring back the drinkers who wanted to go upstairs. The child in the restaurant was quite sensible, so he simply temporarily nailed a wooden sign on the side wall of the stairs on the third floor, which read: The third floor is full, and the rest of the guests stop.

After nailing the wooden signs, he smiled at the two big men on the stairs and hurried back to work.

Soon, a middle-aged man dressed as a wealthy businessman appeared on the second floor and walked straight to the third floor.

Seeing this, the shopkeeper who was busy next to him hurriedly stopped him and said, "Hey, guest officer, the third floor is full, please stay." If you want to drink and eat, you can come with the small one, and the small one will be arranged for you. ”

The middle-aged man glanced at him coldly and said, "The banquet I booked, I am full of dissatisfaction, I know better than you, go and get busy with you." ”

When the shopkeeper heard this, he quickly nodded his head and said with a smile: "Hehe, it turned out to be the banquet you ordered by the guest officer, so please do it." ”

As he spoke, he moved out of the way, and the middle-aged man snorted coldly and ignored him as he went up the stairs.

The shopkeeper watched the middle-aged man disappear on the stairs, revealing a strange bright smile, and he suddenly shouted: "Guest officer, the wine and food on the third floor will be served in a while, you wait for a while." ”

A guest on the second floor asked him in a loud voice, "Little Er, when will the dishes be served?" Uncle, I'm dying of hunger!"

The shopkeeper smiled and said, "The kitchen is cooking, it'll be fine right away, you sit down first, and the small one will be served to you in a while!"

"Little Er, hurry up! I've been waiting here for a long time!"

"Okay, well, right away, soon, soon, you wait a little longer!"

"Little Er, bring us a pot of tea, a pot of wine, and a pot of vinegar!"

"Eh, the little one will be brought to you right away!"

......

On the other side, the shopkeeper downstairs heard the words of the shopkeeper on the second floor, and suddenly summoned a guy not far away, stuffed a note into the guy's hand, and shouted: "You old man Li buy some chickens and ducks from there! Tell the old man that my two tables and nineteen guests are waiting to be served, and let him hurry up and send the chickens and ducks here, and they will be used in the kitchen." ”

"Yes, shopkeeper. ”

The guy nodded, took the note and hurried out, and in a pharmacy at the end of the street, he took the note from the owner of the pharmacy and walked to the market in the east of Suining Town.

The shopkeeper asked the man to look at the shop, turned around and walked into the house, stuffed the note into a small bamboo tube, tied it to the leg of a letter eagle, opened the cage and released the letter eagle.

At the same time, on the third floor, the middle-aged man dressed as a wealthy businessman was sitting at the head of a table, looking at everyone coldly.

Everyone's eyes stayed on him, with a serious and meticulous expression, as if they were waiting for him to speak.

The middle-aged man looked at a big man on the right hand side and said, "Chen Yi, you report first." ”

The big man named Chen Yi said: "I'm sure the other party is here in Suining, he is about fifteen or sixteen years old, and in the early stage of the Spirit Flow Realm, he is making a sword." ”

The middle-aged man looked at a big man on the left and asked, "Long Yi, where are you?"

The big man known as Long Yi said: "All the main roads in Xin'an County have been blocked by our people, even if they take a flying mount, the other party will not want to break through the siege and return to Yunjing. ”

The middle-aged man nodded, looked at a big man opposite, and asked, "Zhao Yi, can you be eyebrows again during this time?"

The big man named Zhao Yi was silent for a moment, and said: "There is no trace of this person in the three major villages, it is estimated that in other places in Suining, people of similar age have checked seven, seven, eighty, eight, and eight, and none of them matched." ”

The middle-aged man said coldly: "Perhaps, he is dressed in disguise, and you can't recognize him." ”

Zhao Yi didn't speak, and after a while, he said slowly: "That's true, I have sent someone to investigate all the foreign population in Suining, and there will be news today." ”

The middle-aged man frowned and said, "The one surnamed Li is willing to help?"

Zhao Yi said: "He originally refused, but then we arrested his family, and he gave in." ”

The middle-aged man scolded: "Reckless!"

Zhao Yi said: "The matter is urgent, we are short of manpower, and there is no other way. ”

At this moment, a family member hurried to the stairs on the third floor, handed the letter to one of the big men guarding the stairs, hugged their fists at them, and hurried away.

The big man guarding the stairs said, "Zhao Yi's letter." ”

Before Zhao Yi could speak, the middle-aged man said, "Bring the letter." ”

The big man who took the letter glanced at Zhao Yi, Zhao nodded, and he handed the letter to the middle-aged man.

The middle-aged man tore open the envelope, took a cursory look, and said to Zhao Yi: "The letter mentioned that there are many outsiders with Yunjing accents who have come to Suining recently, so you should go to him immediately and let him assist in the investigation." The lord said that if you can't catch that person and let the other party escape back to Yunjing, I won't come back, and my relatives will be executed together. Brothers, for the sake of you and my family, please do your best to complete the task!"

When everyone heard this, their faces turned pale, and they all clasped their hands into fists and said, "Yes!"

"Let's go first. Zhao Yi called the two big men next to him and hurriedly walked down the stairs.

"Let people serve the food, there will be no news from Zhao Yi's side for a while, let's just wait, and only when we are full will we have the strength to do things." The middle-aged man said to the two big men guarding the staircase.

"Little Er, serve the food immediately, third floor!" one of the big men shouted downstairs.

"Okay!" the shopkeeper replied, "Serving food on the third floorβ€”"

Soon, all the patrol soldiers began to gather in the north of Suining Town, and they divided into several groups and began to disperse around Suining with a clear purpose, searching some houses. Half a day later, even a part of the border army also joined the search operation, and even the three major villages also sent people to assist in the search, turning the entire Suining upside down.

It is said that there is a wanted criminal from Yunjing hiding in Suining, this person is extremely vicious, the crime cannot be punished, for the safety of everyone in Suining Town, the other party must be arrested as soon as possible, otherwise the consequences are extremely serious.

As night fell, Suining Town was still noisy.

Tuk Tuk!

There was another knock at the door of the North Courtyard of Suining Town, Zhang Teng shook his head helplessly, walked to the gate for the fifth time, and opened the door.

Outside the door were a few young men with torches and dressed as Zhuang Ding, and the first one said: "We are from Wang Zhuang, and we will assist the government in searching for wanted criminals, and please cooperate more!"

Zhang Teng shook his head and said helplessly: "Please, you are already the fifth batch of people who have come to search the house, and if there is anything behind, come in together!"
