Chapter Ninety-One: Suspicious?
"Come in first, you two, and at the speed of this carriage, in half an hour you will pass a post station. It was still five years ago, and now I don't know if it's still there. ”
Grandmother Gao said goodbye, and the two of them followed, Hu Xiu just watched coldly, did not follow in, and still lay on the board outside.
He was just about to fall asleep, but he was not drowsy at all due to the sudden braking, and now he didn't even have the heart to look at the surrounding scenery.
Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, the post station is not far away.
The army stopped, and it was almost noon, and the eyes of the sun were gradually rising to the height overhead, and the exact time was unknown.
Gao Chenghui and her maid Xiaocui got out of the carriage, the post station can open a room temporarily, and the identity of Hu Xiu's patrol envoy has been pushed to the whole country.
The chief in the post station looked at the token handed over by Luo Chenyi, and did not say anything superfluous, and immediately asked people to open two rooms and prepare two buckets of hot water, which were used for the girl's bathing.
As for the change of clothes, Camellia's figure was not much different from Gao Chenghui, so he gave her one. As for the maid, there are only small servants who have servant clothes, and our Wu Mi handed over the clothes in distress, and his servants' clothes were all given by Hu Wangfu, I don't know what to feel sorry for...
Gao Chenghui and the maid went up, but Hu Xiu didn't go far, just standing under the post house. There must be problems with them, such as why they knew about Hu Xiu's team and intercepted it accurately.
The convoy of people on the official road is full of people coming and going, so it's not too suspicious to be sure that Hu Xiu is among them.
His great-grandmother also stood there with him.
"Grandmother, did you find something?" Hu Xiu also reasoned about the coldness that Grandmother Gao revealed, and guessed that there was something wrong with any of these two people.
"There's something wrong with the girl in the Gao family."
Before the grandmother could finish speaking, a bird flew out of the post station and flew into the sky at some point.
"Grandmother..."
Hu Xiu stopped his grandmother's next move, although he didn't know what method he would use to knock down the bird that flew high, but he was sure that she had that ability
"Why not wait and see what happens? In the face of absolute strength, any conspiracy and intrigue are pale and powerless. Knocking down that bird on our side will only startle the snake and make them alert, so it will be difficult to start, and we should come up with a plan to lure the snake out of the hole. ”
Hu Xiu watched the bird fly away, and smiled secretly, if there was no great grandmother, he would definitely knock the bird down, for fear of causing unnecessary trouble.
But since Grandmother Gao is here, there is nothing to be afraid of, Hu Xiu probably has an idea, Grandmother Gao's power should have reached the ninth order, even if it doesn't, it must be the peak of the eighth order, and the old man who follows her should also be around that strength range.
Someone is a big backer, if you are still afraid of anything, it is not too cowardly.
The girls were really slow to take a bath, and they were waiting for the post station to feed the emperor and the military horses, but they hadn't come out yet.
Just thinking that they could come out at the right time, this thought was really spiritual, and it really made people call out.
Grandmother Gao smiled and stepped forward to take Gao Chenghui's hand, and Yu Zhipan talked. This is what Hu Xiu said to his grandmother in advance, and asked him to set Gao Chenghui's words.
Hu Xiu stood in the back, not moving, probably not moving, listening to useful news.
But the more I listened, the more I felt that something was wrong, and the two of them actually got into a conversation. coincided, both of them ran away from home, and the great grandmother Hu Suyun didn't need to say much, she flew over from the imperial city with a bang.
And two days ago, that is, on the third day of March, Shangsi Festival, Gao Chenghui and her maid Xiaocui went out of the noon gate on the grounds of You Chun, because Hu Xiu reported the news a few days ago, and they naturally knew that Hu Xiu would follow this road.
Taking advantage of the fact that the Gao family had not yet reacted, they followed the official road and walked for two days, and then walked the carriage less than an hour away, and now the Gao family still thought that their eldest daughter had been kidnapped.
Yu Zhi talked for a while, but they hadn't talked about why they knew where Hu Xiu was, this was always a doubt, they weren't going to ask, if they really wanted to explain, it would only expose the identities of some people.
Hu Xiu glanced at Xiao Cui meaningfully.
Hu Xiu also fed exclusive feed on the three white-scaled horses, and they ate differently from other horses.
Got into the carriage again, followed the official road, and still walked south, Shen Shi made rice, Hu Xiu got off the car, and deliberately ate some big pot rice with them.
Not to mention it first, the heavy salt taste in the mouth was unbearable, and Hu Xiu suddenly regretted it a little and forgot to bring Uncle Baal. Big meat buns and his egg broth, I'm afraid it will take a long time to eat it again.
After eating this meal, you can't waste it, it's time to set off again, and this is also a thought in my heart.
I couldn't bear to be uncomfortable, and then I got into the carriage, just to watch this Xiaocui's every move, but no matter how I looked at it, I couldn't feel that there was anything wrong with her, just like a normal girl, she should smile and be full of vitality.
If there is a difference, there must be a ghost, luring the snake out of the hole, this strategy can work anywhere, Hu Xiu had an idea in his mind.
It was night, and I happened to miss the last post station before the sun set, and there were still more than 20 miles away from the next post station, Hu Xiu waved his hand and set up camp.
In fact, as long as Hu Xiu was willing, he turned his head, and the carriage ran for a quarter of an hour, and he could return to the post station in the previous place.
But if you do that, how can you lure the snake out of the hole, Hu Xiu is not stupid. Gao Chenghui and her little cui maid, but after the great grandmother came, they stopped the carriage.
They didn't know how terrifying the two old men in the carriage who seemed to have no abs in their hands were.
If they had been brave, they might have been able to act tonight, but they wouldn't have to be afraid. If you are not afraid of their actions, you are afraid that they will not act.
One night passed, Hu Xiu also sat in the carriage all night, sleepless all night, slightly closed eyes, revealing a slit, in fact, all paying attention to Xiaocui.
Gao Chenghui leaned on her shoulder, and she tilted her head as if she was asleep. No one came to snoop, and no one came to attack at night.
As for why he knew that no one came to peep, the emperor and the army, there were people on duty every night. When I got up the next day, I tapped the number of people, and there was no one less, and no one encountered anyone peeping at the situation.
Hu Xiu couldn't help but be suspicious, Xiaocui had been in the carriage all the time, and there was no time to ventilate the news, could it be that he was too suspicious and made a mistake?
Hu Xiu shook his head, impossible, even if he was wrong, Grandmother Hu Suyun would definitely not be wrong, there must be something wrong with this Xiaocui.
For two nights, Hu Xiu did not give up, and every time he deliberately walked past the post station, slept in the suburbs, and lured the snake out of the hole with his body.
But they didn't succeed, the soldiers were nothing, they were all in the military tent for the night, whether they were at the post station or in the suburbs.
Whether it was stationed near the post station or not, it made no difference to them, but it hurt a few women in the carriage.
Shi Ling'er, the maid and the black killer are okay, they are already accompanied by martial arts, at most the insects quarrel at night, and the others have no effect on them.
Gao Chenghui was the most miserable, he was like escaping the famine for two days, but he finally got on Hu Xiu's carriage, and he couldn't rest steadily.
As a result, she had to sit and sleep every night, there was no soft bed, no soft pillows, and none of the orders were given by Hu Xiu, and she had already lost her temper. I don't know why she, as the eldest daughter of the Gao family of a family of military generals, didn't even practice martial arts.
The rest of the female dependents, except for Lamu, have a very unstable life every night. Lamujin deserves to answer her words, I am the daughter of the god of plants and trees, others have been more or less bitten by insects flying from nowhere, but she has not had a single time, and her life is very moist.
Hu Xiu knocked all this in his eyes, gritted his teeth, and had a horizontal heart, just this night, if he can't attract the enemy, then he won't continue to experiment like this.
He was afraid that these girls would not be able to hold on.
That night, Hu Xiu sat next to Gao Chenghui and chatted with her, and her temper has become more and more unstable in the past few days.
scolded Shi Ling'er, and scolded the others who sat closer, except for the great grandmother Hu Suyun, who really inherited the temperament of a military general, and did not inherit the ability to be a military general.
Hu Xiu couldn't help it, this was the last day, and he was afraid that she would make something wrong, so he gave up his life to accompany the gentleman.
Suddenly, there was a noise outside, and Hu Xiu's eyes lit up, and he really couldn't help it.
"Grandmother, stay here first, I'll go out and have a look." With that, he lifted his roof and jumped out of the carriage. Pay attention to the rhetoric, it is to stay here, not to keep, and if the words are not appropriate, it will also arouse suspicion.
Hu Suyun understood, "Xiao Mingzi, accompany my great-grandson to take a look." ”
"Yes." The old man who had been on the carriage replied softly.
At this time, the carriage was brightly lit outside, and hundreds of torches were held high.
Not long ago, the emperor and the army were on night patrol, naturally carrying torches, and through the light of the torches, they happened to see several black shadows moving not far away.
The soldiers were all experienced and unfazed, and each made a gesture not to disturb them. Silently pretending not to see it, after pretending to finish the inspection, he turned his back to them and walked towards the barracks, leading them towards the barracks.
Sure enough, without waiting for the emperor and the army to go far, no one of them could hold back, and they rushed towards this one by one.
But how can this make their sneak attack successful, the Emperor and the Army, as the Praetorian Guard, do not have a unified weapon, these dozen people are in a formation, one by one pull out the long knife or short sword at the waist, or other strange weapons.
The battle of Yu is together, shouting "kill"! The sneak attackers were also shocked, and most of the people who had killed people had a murderous aura on their bodies.
Usually it is not revealed, but if you want to move it in earnest, you can reflect the importance of this qi.
In the face of the emperor and army that rushed up, this group of people who attacked first were dressed differently, not a regular formation, it could only be mountain bandits.
I saw that they took a step back in fear, and looked closely, and there were at most fifty or sixty people here, and there were only a dozen or so people on the other side.
There was a lot of ruthlessness in my heart, Made, there are four or five times more people on the other side of them, even if they use human life, they can pile you to death!
This spirit of the newborn calf is not afraid of death, and the people of the emperor and the army are ecstatic, isn't this just like the leeks sent up.
In just a few breaths, the emperor and the army slashed more than 20 people in a row, and the group of people realized that something was wrong at this time, and they were about to run, but where could they let them run!
The military camp of the Emperor and the army also heard the movement in the back, and the sound was so loud in the silent night that everyone could hear it.
Hundreds of emperors and soldiers immediately left the camp, and those who stayed behind were the ones who guarded the camp, and the scene of hundreds of people holding torches high and rushing here was magnificent.
The few timid ones who were scared instantly collapsed to the ground, and then their heads were cut off.
……
PS: In ancient times, it was common to set up a post station every thirty miles. To put it simply, a post station is a place where the servants who received and delivered official documents and the visiting officials rested and changed horses on the way.
So it's naturally okay to take a bath, but as for Hu Xiu's 1,000 private troops to live in, it's a bit wishful thinking.
