Chapter 5: The Nine Heavens Fairy Descends to the Dust (Ask for Collection, Ask for Recommendation Votes)
"If that's the case, Lord Liubao will lose two treasures!" Zhou Da smiled bitterly, "Miss Liu is recognized as a beauty outside the Saiwai, and she has a beautiful voice, and she is known as the Bailing. ”
"That's it!" Geng Xiaofan understood, and didn't ask any more.
When the convoy left Yanmen Pass, the speed slowed down, because the road was indeed potholes, and this section was still a canyon, although the mountains on both sides were not high, but very steep, which made people unconsciously feel a sense of depression.
Geng Xiaofan observed both sides, this is really an excellent battlefield for "ambush"! There is a road at the front and back ends, and the two sides are condescending, setting fire to arrows and throwing stones, no matter how many troops there are below, there is only one dead end!
Geng Xiaofan was secretly frightened, looking up at the mountains on both sides, as if he really felt that there were "thousands of troops and horses" in ambush above!
Fortunately, this canyon is not long, and it is only three or four miles, and the convoy walked out safely.
Out of the canyon, the road is much smoother, and the grass on both sides of the ancient road is also luxuriant.
Wrong! The grass next to the road seems to have been trampled down a lot! Geng Xiaofan couldn't help but get off the horse and observe.
There is a horse team passing by, and the time will not be long, Geng Xiaofan looked in the direction of the grass lodging, and his heart was tight!
The direction in which the horse team went was the high mountains on the side of the canyon!
Oh, my God! Someone really wants to fight an "ambush" here!
"What's wrong? Brother Xiaofan. Zhou Da also saw the abnormality.
"Brother Zhou, there is obviously a horse team passing by here, and I'm afraid there are quite a few of them. You see, the grass is all falling in one direction, and there is no return! Geng Xiaofan looked at the mountains on both sides, and it seemed that he felt good just now, and there were really "ambushes" above the canyon.
"Really!" Zhou Da secretly admired Geng Xiaofan's analysis.
"Brother Zhou, it is not advisable to stay here for a long time, let the brothers speed up, we have to leave quickly." Geng Xiaofan didn't care much, so he hurriedly got on the horse.
"Brothers, it's getting late, hurry up!" Zhou Da also turned on his horse, let out a long roar, and accelerated with the convoy.
Not long after, a square and square village appeared in front of me in the low-lying part of the grassland, and Liuquan Fort arrived!
Geng Xiaofan breathed a sigh of relief and looked at the village from afar. Indeed, as Zhou Da said, the scale of the village is not very large, but the site is really very good, surrounded by mountains on both sides, built by the mountain, the wall of the village is all huge stone piles, tall and solid.
What's even more pleasing is a lovely stream flowing slowly along the side of Willow Springs.
What a "fortress" that is easy to defend and difficult to attack!
At the gate of the village, people come and go, and there are horse teams coming in and out from time to time. Geng Xiaoxia guessed that this must be the castle owner looking for his daughter.
Sure enough, the convoy came to the gate and saw a bounty revelation, if anyone knew the whereabouts of Miss Liu, the lord of Liubao would thank him for a hundred taels of gold. If someone rescues him, the lord of Liubao is willing to give everything he can to repay him!
"It seems that Lord Liubao is really in a hurry. Brother Zhou, are you familiar with the castle master? I'd like to pay a visit and maybe I can help a little. Geng Xiaofan became interested in this "disappearance case".
"It's not familiar, but if you want to see it, I can still recommend it." Zhou Da actually wanted to inquire about the whole story again.
After meeting with the "teammates" who arrived earlier, Zhou Da led Geng Xiaofan to meet the lord of Liubao.
Liu Letian, the lord of Willow Spring Fort, looks forty miles away, with a strong figure, thick eyebrows and big eyes, a wide mouth and a wide nose, which makes people know that he is a bold chivalrous warrior at first sight. At this moment, he was anxiously pacing up and down the lobby.
"Lord Liubao, is there no news from Ling Ai yet?" Zhou Da saluted Liu Lotian.
"Zhou Yishi, I have a lot of worries, and there is no news for the time being." Although Liu Lotian was anxious, he still had self-cultivation and hurried back the gift.
"Lord Liubao, please tell me more about Miss yesterday's situation, and see if you can help a little." Geng Xiaofan followed Zhou Da's example and also saluted Liu Letian.
"Who is this?" Liu Lotian has never seen Geng Xiaofan.
"Oh, my name is Geng Xiaofan, I am from Brother Zhou's caravan, I just heard about Miss Liu, and I want to do my best." Geng Xiaofan said politely.
"Young Master Geng, please take a seat." Liu Lotian saw that he was dressed in a strange costume and had a unique appearance, so he didn't dare to be careless, and began to talk about his daughter's disappearance.
"The little girl had a whim yesterday and wanted to go hunting. I also told her that it was not summer yet, and there were not many prey on the grassland, so it was not a good time to hunt. But she didn't listen, and insisted on going, so I had to send three servants to go with her. The little girl will definitely come back before dusk when she hunts, but yesterday she didn't return until the palm lamp! ”
Liu Lotian sighed, "Since last night, many people have been sent to look for it, but there has been no news so far!" ”
"Lord Liubao, has Miss had any unusual reactions in the past few days?" Geng Xiaofan asked thoughtfully.
"No, she's always in a good mood these days. I was also happy when I left yesterday. ”
"Did Miss use to hunt a lot? Has she ever been out alone? Geng Xiaofan continued to ask.
"There are always a few times a year, and there are people who go out alone."
"Never spent the night out?"
"Never! That's why I'm worried this time. Liu Letian saw that Geng Xiaofan's questions were becoming more and more "professional", and he couldn't help but have confidence.
"What are the obvious features of Miss Liu, or there is a picture of her, no, is there a portrait?"
"She went out yesterday and wore a dark green jacket, portrait, portrait there! I'll send someone to fetch it. Liu Lotian recalled, and quickly instructed his daughter's personal maid Huan Ping'er to get the portrait.
After a while, Geng Xiaofan saw a beautiful "lady picture"! No, it should be a "fairy picture", Miss Liu on the picture is slim, exuding a fairy spirit!
Hehe, if Miss Liu really looks like the picture drawn, then he desperately wants to find it back and see him! Where is this portrait, it is simply "the Nine Heavens Fairy descends to the earth"!
"Lord Liubao, I haven't asked Miss Fang's name yet." Geng Xiaofan remembered another important question.
"Fei'er, Liu Fei'er." Liu Lotian hurriedly replied.
"It's a blessing or a curse, it's a curse that can't be avoided. Don't worry too much about Lord Liubao, I'll find a way to find it. Geng Xiaofan basically figured out what he wanted to know, got up and said goodbye.
"Brother Xiaofan, do you already have a plan?" As soon as he went out, Zhou Da hurriedly asked.
"Well, I have a guess." Geng Xiaofan nodded. "Lord Liubao sent so many people out, but there were no clues at all, which means that Miss Liu must have encountered a special situation."
"Special circumstances? What could it be? Zhou Da was puzzled.
"Brother Zhou, do you remember the grass in Taniguchi?"
"You mean, Miss Liu went to the top of the canyon?" Zhou Da's face was surprised.
"The grassland is different from other places, as far as the eye can see, and it is difficult for a few large living people to hide without being discovered. The Lord of Liubao sent so many people to find it, I guess there is only that place. ”
Geng Xiaofan explained simply, and began to arrange again, "Brother Zhou, lend me some money first, and I'll buy something." Also, you can help me inquire about the recent movements of the Huns. We'll see you later. ”
"Huns? Do you suspect that Miss Liu's disappearance has something to do with the Xiongnu? Zhou Da's face was incredible.
"Shall you inquire first? We'll talk about that later. Geng Xiaofan took the copper coin in Zhou Da's hand, turned around and ran towards the market.
