Early the next morning, Xiao Jing left Quanxi County as promised.

The county ordered Lord Wan to see him off in person, and the courtesy was very thoughtful. After saying goodbye to the two sides, Xiao Jing first walked fifty miles north, and then turned to the southeast in the afternoon, and when the sun set down, the group was not far from the official road in the east of Quanxi County.

"President, didn't you say before that we listened to someone's advice and went north?" At the regular meeting in the evening, the monkey scratched his head and said, "I heard that there are a lot of bandits in the east, will it be a little ...... for us to go here?"

Before he finished speaking, his face suddenly stiffened, and Jian Yuning, who was sitting next to him, took over the conversation with a smile: "Brother Xiao said that there must be his considerations when he walks here, what kind of excitement are you making up for a while?" If I were you, I would listen more, think more, and take less stubble, and I'm afraid that I won't be able to learn anything by Brother Xiao's side? ”

After discovering that this girl was following the team all the way, Xiao Jing thought of a way to pretend to catch her inadvertently, and pretended to scold the monkey for this.

Xiao Jing could have sent people back, but Jian Yuning, who didn't leave, took out his hard work to finish the work of him and Xia Hanxue, and finally got the opportunity to move forward with the team.

was robbed by the people around him, the monkey looked at Jian Yuning innocently and a little stupidly, who knew that the girl also glared at him without showing weakness, and the puffing appearance was very cute.

One is reluctant to let his sweetheart get into danger, and the other has to follow in vain, this pair of people is also quite interesting.

Xiao Jing automatically ignored the small movements between the young couple, and smiled: "Listening more and talking less is indeed a good way to learn, but now I want to hear your opinions...... Why don't you talk about Sister Yuning? ”

Jian Yuning, who never knew what stage fright was, chuckled: "That person can just say it, if it's not right, Brother Xiao doesn't want to laugh." ”

After getting Xiao Jingyunke, her big eyes rolled and said, "Lord Wan may have asked Brother Xiao to go to Hongze County out of some kindness, I have also inquired before, there are indeed many bandits from here to the east. However, another possibility cannot be ruled out, that is, he is playing tricks and trying to avoid the important and let us leave the most important places...... Am I right? ”

Xiao Jing nodded approvingly and said, "That's the truth." Although they were very respectful to me, the uncle of the Xia family, they were also very guarded, because everyone knew what I was doing. If Hedong is really a puddle of mud, then before I confirm the situation with my own eyes, even I can't be sure that Wanda is the lotus flower that comes out of the mud and is not stained...... It's better to be careful in everything. ”

He glanced at Jian Yuning, then at the somewhat cramped monkey, and said, "However, there may really be danger on this road, aren't you afraid?" ”

Jian Yuning glanced at the monkey and said with a smile: "The monkey is bold, Brother Xiao also knows that he gritted his teeth in the black mine and never obeyed the dragon's lair in the Longtan tiger's den, and now there are so many guards following, what is he afraid of?" He didn't want to go east before, mainly because he was nervous about me. As for the people themselves......"

As she spoke, she sat down beside Xia Hanxue with a smile, hugged her arm and said, "With Brother Xiao and Sister Xue'er, who loves me the most, what is there to be afraid of?" ”

"Just you can talk. The girl's family is so sharp and sharp before she gets married, and she will be able to pay it back in the future? Xia Hanxue nodded on Jian Yuning's head with a smile, and said with a smile: "However, it seems that our little Nizi can't wait to get married, no, she will say good things to her husband's family before she passes the door...... If you don't go back to see Jian Yuanwai, see if you can talk about this family business, and save the Jian family's sister from thinking about it day and night. ”

"Sister Cher!"

Jian Yuning, whose cheeks burned red, fell into Xia Hanxue's arms, ashamed and refused to come out.

Xiao Jing also chose to turn a blind eye to the very childlike picture in front of him, and only after Jian Yuning sat back beside the monkey shyly did he say: "Actually, Sister Yuning's words are just one of them. If I'm right, the worst hit is still north. ”

"Huh?"

Jian Yuning and the monkey's eyes looked at him in unison, as if seeking answers.

Xiao Jing sighed and said: "The so-called virtual is real, the real is false, the mirror newspaper has been sold for so many years, these people are by no means frogs at the bottom of the well with closed eyes and ears, can you not know what place we are looking for?" Can you know that the more words flash, the more they can arouse the curiosity of others? That's what the rhetoric of the Wanxian Order means.

However, this guy seems to have been instructed to do so, but fortunately he is tactful enough to know what to say...... You think, if we insist on going east, we will almost certainly encounter bandits, and we may not be able to visit anything useful, and then we will not listen to anyone, and he will not have the slightest responsibility; If we 'naively' went to the north, this false and real strategy was not his idea at all, and he took advantage of this to sell good with the Xia family, why not? ”

Xiao Jing patted the monkey on the shoulder who had fallen into deep thought, got up and said proudly, "Don't you want me to go to the north first?" That's fine, so it's his wish! I would like to see if some people can hide those things that are not visible in broad daylight! ”

The next day, the team set off again.

Although it had been decided to make a plan, Xiao Jing still sent people to the north, hoping to get more information in this way.

And just like that, the time came to noon.

Because it was wild, the group had to bury the pot to make rice. The aroma of food wafted out, and the scouts on the periphery sent a warning that a group of bandits was approaching!

Xiao Jing, who was sitting on the side chatting with Xue'er, suddenly came to his senses. He got up, stretched, whispered to the people around him, and then walked to the periphery with a few guards, quietly waiting for the arrival of the "guests".

I'm afraid you won't come!

In order to collect information comprehensively, it is necessary not to stick to traditional methods, and in many cases it is possible to find other ways. Most of the bandits are local snakes, and it would be quite useful to catch a few and use them as "tongues" to ask questions or something.

As for security...... There's nothing to worry about at all.

Counting the lurking and those in the team, there are now nearly two hundred Xia family guards nearby. These hundred battle elites can fight against the same number or even more of the Beihu Khan tent guards, and the country bandits of hundreds of people can only deliver food when they come, and they will eat them to the point that there is no residue left.

Xiao Jing looked around: Well, the bandits must be trying to launch a surprise attack from that reed field, right?

What happened after a stick of incense confirmed his suspicion:

With a loud shout, a large number of people rushed out of the reeds!
