Spying on the Enemy (Part II)
Meng Sanqian, who was lying on the bed, emptied his head, he was so tired of being alive. At that moment, there was a sound from the window, and he instinctively flicked up, gripping his sword.
"It's me." Li Chu glanced at Meng Sanqian.
"Why are you here?" Meng Sanqian was a little surprised by Li Chu's descent from the sky, but he was still happy in his heart.
"Is there anything to eat? I am hungry. Li Chu climbed into the window and did not directly answer Meng Sanqian's question, he has also been indulged too much by Meng Sanqian recently, and he no longer cares about any dignity.
Hearing his words, Meng Sanqian hurriedly found some food for the way and handed it to him, seeing Li Chu who was gobbling up, Meng Sanqian was a little happy for a while, he didn't expect him to appear.
"Now you can answer my question." Meng Sanqian looked at Li Chu, who had put down the food, and began to ask.
"I guessed that you would leave me, so I bought your men in advance, knew your course of action, and came over." Li Chu said it as a matter of course, and his face was also light. But Meng Sanqian was still full of doubts.
"Since you know I'm leaving early, why don't you just follow and come alone?"
"Even if I showed up at that time, you would find all kinds of ways and use all kinds of means to keep me, instead of that, it would be better to come directly to the destination to meet you, wouldn't it be a lot less trouble?" Over the years, Li Chu has also experienced all kinds of winds and waves, and he can see other people's behaviors very thoroughly, but Meng Sanqian made him a little curious.
"Clever." Meng Sanqian praised, of course, the smile on his face was also difficult to hide, it was really strange, he once suspected that he was a cheerful person.
"What is my mission?" During this period of getting along, Li Chu also began to show his personality.
"Follow me."
"Where do I live?"
"Live with me." Okay, it's you who dare to love it, Li Chu once wondered why he was here, and he guessed that his brain was pumping.
At night, the two argued about who slept on the bed and who slept on the cold bench, and in the end, Meng Sanqian used his power to successfully seize the opportunity to sleep on the cold bench.
In the middle of the night, Meng Sanqian saw that Li Chu had fallen asleep, and quietly left the inn, there was no one on the street, as for the residence of the companions, that is, on the street, as the leader, he also had to do something within his power, Meng Sanqian quietly approached the barracks, and sure enough, he saw the two people who were traveling with him.
"General?" Seeing Meng Sanqian's appearance, the two were still a little surprised.
"How's it going?" Meng Sanqian had a straight face, looking cold.
"It's a little strange, groups of people have come and gone several times, and a large number of soldiers have come in." The two observed Meng Sanqian's reaction while talking, and had to say that they were still a little timid, for fear that they would be caught accidentally.
"I know, I'll come over by myself in the future, you don't have to go to the inn to report the situation to me, it's too dangerous. A few other people, you should also go and inform me. Tell them to hurry. ”
After explaining, Meng Sanqian successfully sneaked into the barracks and checked the grain and grass, which was very sufficient, and it seemed that he had prepared it in advance. After that, Meng Sanqian quietly avoided the crowd on duty and entered the command camp. There was also a strategic map of the border pass on the table, and there was handwriting on it, which seemed to be discussing tactics. Hurriedly glanced at it, seeing that the time was almost up, Meng Sanqian quietly returned to the residence, looking at Li Chu who was still sleeping, Meng Sanqian smiled from the bottom of his heart.
The next day, Meng Sanqian went out for a trip, after all, he was here to travel, and it was too easy to make people suspicious if he didn't go out. As for Li Chu, he was forcibly left in the house by Meng Sanqian, he sneaked in last night, no one has seen him, and appearing now will only make people suspicious, it is completely unnecessary.
"Little Er, is there anything good to recommend? I'm new to the city, so I'm not very familiar with this place. Meng Sanqian asked Xiao Er when he was eating at the inn.
"If you want to talk about places worth visiting, then of course you have to go and see the city wall, from the city wall facing the country, see how beautiful the scenery will be." Xiao Er said proudly.
"Then I'll go to the city wall later to see if it's different from what I usually see." Meng Sanqian replied.
"But I heard that there will be a war in the near future, and the people may not be allowed to go up the walls, but you can also go and see first." Xiao Er's attitude is very good, and the analysis of the situation is also in place. At that time, this was not what Meng Sanqian wanted to hear.
"Then it may be inconvenient, it will add a lot of burden to the soldiers, well, by the way, I remember that there is a small river near here, and the scenery around it should be good." Meng Sanqian took the initiative to bring the topic.
"Little brother, you asked me right, I like that little river the most, not only the scenery is beautiful, there are few people, if you can swim, you can also swim twice, you can also find a farmer to borrow a horse, gallop on a field, that feeling is simply wonderful." Xiao Er said with an expression on his face, as if he was galloping on the field.
"And how long do I want to get from here to there?"
"It may take a long time, because this area is full of houses, staggered back and forth, it is not easy to pass through, after passing through the house, the road is also bumpy, extremely difficult to walk, if you need to walk, it will take at least three hours, even if it is horseback riding, it will take two hours, I think this time is not early, you better not go." Xiao Er's comprehensive words simply provided the information that Meng Sanqian wanted.
"Then I'll rest today and get up early tomorrow." Meng Sanqian yawned as he said and stretched.
"The guest officer is tired on the way here, and I see many passing guests like this."
"Well, you can help me make some more delicious food, so that I don't have to come down in the evening, and I won't have to trouble you." Meng Sanqian explained.
"Thank you for your understanding, I'll go to the back kitchen to get it for you now, and then bring it to you." After Xiao Er finished speaking, he felt that he was busy in the back kitchen, and it was really fast, and before Meng Sanqian finished eating, Xiao Er brought the prepared meal.
"Then the guest officer, you use it slowly, I'll be busy first." Meng Sanqian looked at the meal and remembered how Li Chu gobbled it up last night, and it was estimated that his eyes should light up when he saw this food.
Thinking of this, Meng Sanqian put down his chopsticks and went upstairs with the food.
As soon as Meng Sanqian pushed open the door, he saw Li Chu swallowing the remaining dry food, it seemed that he was really hungry.
"Why are you back?" Li Chu didn't feel that he had anything to eat, and continued to eat, feeling inexplicable at Meng Sanqian's smile.
"I remember that you haven't eaten yet, so I'll bring you some." Meng Sanqian put down the plate, in the end, it was the food of the inn, it was full of color, flavor and flavor, Li Chu was a little drooling, he had been excluded because of his background in Chu before, and all the princes and princesses tried their best to abuse him, and the most impressive thing at that time was that he couldn't eat enough food every day, so that he later developed into such an obsession with food so deep now.
"Don't you have to worry about being suspected?" Li Chu cared about Meng Sanqian while feasting, and the feeling of eating was really down-to-earth.
"You seem to be obsessed with food, huh? Every time I watch you eat, it's a gobble. Meng Sanqian didn't answer Li Chu's question directly, on the contrary, he remembered that he had known Li Chu for so long, and every time he watched him eat, he was gobbling it up, and he was a little curious about the inside story for a while.
"When I was a child, I was abused all the time, I couldn't eat, and then I developed a habit of gobbling up, and when I was hungry, I would be very restless if I didn't have food, and I sometimes doubted that food was my spiritual food." Li Chu said with a smile, although he hid some things related to his background, things are generally like this.
Looking at Li Chu, who usually had a serious face, but laughed when he said this, Meng Sanqian couldn't help but feel a little distressed, and didn't continue to ask. As if by tacit understanding, both of them remained silent.
I don't know how long it took, Meng Sanqian said, "You are ready to prepare, we will leave tonight." ”
"Things settled so quickly?" Li Chu was very curious about this question, they had been here for such a short time, and they definitely did not fulfill the purpose of coming, since they decided to leave, it proved that they were exposed.
"Hmm. As soon as it gets dark, you will be the first to leave, and as for the rest of the soldiers, I will look for them in the evening. Meng Sanqian still decided to send Li Chu away first, he wanted to ensure Li Chu's safety.
"Can't I go with you?" Li Chu was a little puzzled, this person obviously said that he would let him follow him, but he always hung himself aside at a critical moment, and he really couldn't understand this person's brain circuit.
"If the two of you are together, the goal is too big, I will go back with them directly at that time, and I will not come to the inn again, so you will go first when the time comes." What Meng Sanqian said was reasonable, and Li Chu did not continue to object.
In the middle of the night, Meng Sanqian and Li Chubing split into two routes, Li Chu returned to China directly, and Meng Sanqian went to find his companions.
There is no problem in finding someone, and the first few are also very smooth, but this last companion has brought a lot of trouble to Meng Sanqian. When Meng Sanqian found his companion, he was surrounded by a group of soldiers from the Qi State, and it looked like he was going to be taken back to the barracks.
There are only two paths in front of Meng Sanqian, the first is to give up this fellow traveler and go back by himself; The second is to rush up and fight, but this is just outside the barracks, as long as these soldiers shout, a large number of soldiers will come, and no matter how high their martial arts are, they will not be able to defeat everyone.
When it was a long time, Meng Sanqian still chose the latter. One of the soldiers was knocked unconscious with a slash on one side, and on the other side, a spinner kick knocked down several people one after another. But the soldiers' shouting kept the barracks lights on.
Looks like I'm going to plant it here this time. Meng Sanqian's consciousness was a little distracted, but this running god was attacked by a Qi soldier behind him, and a beating stick hit Meng Sanqian straight on the back of the head. Just as Meng Sanqian turned his head and was about to kill him, he saw a sword flying from behind his back, stabbing the soldier straight and splashing Meng Sanqian's face with blood.
And the person who stabbed this sword was none other than Li Chu.
Li Chu rode a horse, rushed into the crowd, and pulled Meng Sanqian to the horse, as for the other companion, he was also picked up by the companion who came with Li Chu on horseback, but fortunately, the soldiers of Qi did not chase after him, and several people left the border of Qi smoothly.
On the way, Li Chu rode a horse, Meng Sanqian sat behind, feeling that his brain was about to explode, he would definitely leave before this matter was changed today, and he would not cancel the task for the lives of a few people, he really didn't look like himself.
"I know I can't save it, why do I rush forward?" Li Chu still couldn't control the doubts in his heart and asked.
"I feel that I am too powerful, and I want to see if I can destroy the soldiers of Qi by myself and end this war." Meng Sanqian said weakly.
Li Chu knew that he didn't want to say it, so he didn't continue to ask. After all, everyone has their own secrets in their hearts, and breaking into that forbidden land will only hurt others and themselves, so why bother.
"Are you coming back to me?" Meng Sanqian closed his eyes and asked slowly.
"Could it be that I also fantasize about destroying the soldiers of the Qi State by myself?" Li Chu teased, he was originally going to go back first, but the more he thought about it, the more worried he became, he met a fellow traveler on the road, he confessed that the other companion was trapped, Li Chu thought that Meng Sanqian might also have a problem, so he rode a horse to save him, as for the reason he left for himself, Meng Sanqian died, and he had no chance to turn over.
