Chapter 192: Heading to Qingzhou
Dong Ping saw Li Qingzhao trotting all the way over, his heart also trembled suddenly, and he jumped off the platform, and wanted to ask her some details.
"Brother Dong Ping, I just heard that Xiao Wei has disappeared for two days!" Li Qingzhao said excitedly: "Look, are we going to send someone to find her!"
"Two days?" Dong Ping frowned, and said in a low tone: "No, I haven't received any news from the dark guard recently, if Xian Mei is kidnapped, that person will definitely not be able to hide the dark guard's eyes!"
Thinking of this, Dong Ping's heart became more and more uneasy, this secret guard was formed by letting Yan Qing be in charge a month ago, and selecting the most flexible and agile elites in the army who had been trained in reconnaissance skills for many years.
As for their equipment, not to mention, Dong Ping doesn't believe it, at present, someone can sneak into the city without him, and they can also rob people from a hundred Condor crossbows!
It can be said that the rapid reaction capability and reconnaissance capability of this unit are among the best in the world at present.
In case something happens to Nangong and her, can that person take people away from this force?!
"Don't worry, nothing will happen to her."
Dong Ping looked at Li Qingzhao with an anxious look, and his face sank, his right hand supported his chin, and his eyes were thoughtful.
After being silent for a moment, he still said: "Okay, Brother Zaixing, Yun Yin, you and I will go out of the city, and each take five hundred cavalry to search for a carpet within a radius of a hundred miles!"
"Order!" Yang Zaixing and Shi Bao clasped their fists with their hands and said loudly.
"If there is no clue, bring someone to Qingzhou to meet me." Dong Ping paused and added.
Li Qingzhao said eagerly: "Brother Dong Ping, you better take me with you, no matter what I say, I am more familiar with Xiao Wei."
Dong Ping hesitated for a moment, but nodded and said, "Okay, you go and choose a fast horse, and the four of us will set off!"
"Inform everyone, everything in my absence has been according to Director Zhu's orders, and the training will be as usual!"
Dropping this sentence, Dong Ping stepped onto Zhao Yeyu, lifted the gilded double guns, and galloped away from the city with Li Qingzhao, Shi Bao, and Yang Zaixing.
When Dong Ping went out of the city, he searched all the way along the mountain road, and his cavalry was also not idle, and entered the village with Dong Ping, asking about Nangong Wei's whereabouts from door to door.
Unexpectedly, I went out for dozens of miles, but I didn't find anything, and I was about to go outside Yuncheng County, I was busy for most of the day, and it was almost dark, and it was still a bamboo basket to draw water.
Gritting his teeth, Dong Ping still didn't give up, and still decided to continue to move forward.
Dong Ping saw that the carpet search was useless, so he ordered all the cavalry to go to Yang Zaixing.
"Brother Dong Ping, it's about to set sunset." Li Qingzhao looked at the nearby paths and bushes, frowned and said, "Do you want to find a family to rest for one night first?"
Dong Ping nodded, and said indifferently: "It's okay, early tomorrow morning, we will go to the Qingzhou area."
"Qingzhou?" Li Qingzhao looked blank and asked, "What are we going to do there?"
"I look at today's incident, I'm afraid it has nothing to do with Wen Huanzhang." Dong Ping lowered his voice and said, "No matter what, we have to go and find out."
"Besides, we will take Qingzhou the day after tomorrow anyway." Dong Ping smiled and said, "No matter what happens, Wen Huanzhang will have to tell the truth obediently."
Li Qingzhao also nodded, and suddenly, she seemed to find a bright light not far away.
"Brother Dong Ping, there are lights there, let's go over and ask."
Dong Ping raised his head and looked into the distance, and said with a smile: "No problem, anyway, I have hoped to live in this environment since I was a child."
"Why?" Li Qingzhao asked with some confusion.
Judging from Dong Ping, who was once so young to be a capital eunuch, he must also have a prominent family background, right?
How could you have wanted to live in this poor and remote place since you were a child?
Dong Ping didn't rush to reply, just smiled and shook his head.
Soon, the two of them were getting closer and closer to the house.
At this time, the two of them saw clearly that this was a simple house, and a few wisps of cooking smoke came out of the gray chimney on the roof, which looked a little lonely under the light of the remnant sun.
The house is clearly visible from the trail and is made of simple thatch and planks, but judging by the traces left by the years above, the house is at least a hundred years old.
Dong Ping jumped off the horse from a distance, and saw that the two old men had already come out, so he arched his hand and smiled: "Disturb the second elder, we missed the hotel because we were in a hurry, if we can have a house to rest, Xiaosheng is here to thank you."
The old man stroked his beard, smiled and said, "It's okay, it's okay, if you don't think the humble house is shabby, please go into the old man's house for the night."
Dong Ping returned the salute and followed the old man in.
At the same time, Tokyo, Taiwei Mansion.
Gao Yu saw that Wang Yu had arrived in front of him, put away the long sword in his hand, and said calmly: "What, what's the matter?"
Wang Yu was silent for a moment, but still said in a low voice: "Lord Taiwei, I have been by Zhao Ji's side for several years, and this time I went to Shandong, which was originally a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!"
"Oh, then why did Zhao Ji come back alive?" Gao Yu sneered.
"It's Dong Ping." Wang Yu's eyes were completely gloomy, and he said in a low tone: "I was about to start, but I unexpectedly found Miss Chen."
"Chen Liqing?" Gao Yu frowned and said, "How is her task accomplished?"
"Miss said that she was going to Liangshan to lurk and prepare to assassinate Dong Shuang." Wang Yu said: "After I reminded Miss to pay attention to her safety, the most terrifying thing happened."
"I saw with my own eyes that Dong Ping didn't do anything, just raised his hand and aimed it at Zhao Ji, and he passed out in an instant......" Wang Yu had a serious look on his face, and stated the events of that night as they were.
"My lord, let's not assassinate him." Wang Yu said in a low voice: "Zhao Ji has something left over from Shen Yun's old thing, I have tried, and there is no way to kill him with a sword."
After Gao Yu heard these words, he just sneered: "Heh, that old immortal is still so in the way, when I figure out the power of the jade seal, the first one to get rid of is him!"
"As for that Dong Ping, there is no use value anymore." Gao Yu snorted coldly: "After he gets rid of Shi Wengong, ask Cheng Liqing to solve him together!"
Wang Yu saw that Gao Yu was so calm, and he didn't have anything to say, and informed Gao Yu of some top-secret information in the palace and the capital, and then went back to the palace to command the forbidden army to practice.
At this time, Dong Ping was a little worried.
Looking at the bowl in front of him, thinking back to what he said just now, Dong Ping couldn't lift his chopsticks a little.
Listening to what this old man said, their family used to be the people in the Jizhou area, and they were originally Han people who stayed in Liao, and they lived freely.
But a few days ago, the Liao lord suddenly attacked the people in Jizhou, and there were hundreds of households that were directly destroyed.
And their secrecy work is quite hidden, and there is not even a single news about this matter, if this old man is not rescued.
"By the way, old man, what about your children?" Li Qing looked at the four pairs of dishes and chopsticks in the room and asked in a low voice.
The old man sighed heavily: "Our family finally escaped from the city, but was chased by the Khitan cavalry all the way out for dozens of miles, and the two sons of the old man were killed by the Khitan thieves in order to save us, alas."
Speaking of this, the old man wiped the corners of his eyes, obviously in tears.
"If it weren't for Xiao Daxia and Mr. Xu who came forward to save us, how could we escape to the house left by our uncle!" The old woman cried.
When he heard these words, Dong Ping's brows furrowed slightly, and he quickly stretched out again.
"It's all my fault, and I'm sad to mention the two of you." Li Qingzhao hurriedly stood up and brought a cup of tea to the two old men.
"Okay, it's all gone, it's nothing." The old man wiped his eyes, cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks first, and then smiled and brought the two to the room.
Seeing that there was only one room, Dong Ping suddenly felt a little embarrassed.
"Young man, seeing that you are also rich and noble, I can only grieve you two for the time being." The old man smiled a little embarrassedly and said, "The old man has a small place here, and there are not many rooms."
Dong Ping just smiled: "It's okay, there is a place to live, but we are not husbands......"
"Okay, I'm tired too, and the two old people should rest early." Li Qingzhao said as he smiled and waved his hand to the old man
Dong Ping frowned, and didn't say anything, just made a bunk on the ground, then turned off the light and lay down, never saying a word.
"Brother Dong Ping, have you slept?"
"How?"
"Can you tell me what you said earlier? Why do you want to live in this mountain? ”
Dong Ping smiled: "You must think that I have been the son of a rich and noble family since I was a child, right?"
"Isn't it?" Li Qingzhao suddenly became interested.
"Hehe, what a family, I'm just a loner."
"Huh?"
"Since I was eight years old, I have lost everything, and only that one girl has always been with me."
Dong Ping smiled bitterly: "If I say that I have been studying all over the country for nine years, and I have been wandering the rivers and lakes, and this capital prison is mixed up by me in two years, do you believe it?"
"Really...... It's true? Li Qingzhao was also a little incredulous for a while: "Brother Dong Ping, are you so powerful?"
"Is it amazing, how can it be no matter how powerful?" Dong Ping put his hands behind his head, looked at the night outside the window, and said with a sigh.
"Before I was twenty years old, I was alone in this world for so many years, and when I calmed down, I saw that no one was by my side, and I was still alone."
"Even the girl who used to be with me all the time has now left me."
Dong Ping sighed: "If I had a choice, I would rather be an ordinary person in this mountain with my family at the beginning, watching the sunset and sunrise with my lover every day, isn't this kind of day bad?"
"Of course, it's different now." Dong Ping smiled again and said, "I have these brothers and sisters who share weal and woe, and I am very happy to have you by my side."
Li Qingzhao gritted his teeth, but still said in a low voice: "Brother Dong Ping, you ...... You really take me ...... Shall we be your sisters? ”
Dong Ping smiled: "Of course, we have always been a family, is there anything to doubt about this?"
Sighing softly, Li Qingzhao just turned around, his eyes a little empty and confused.
The next day.
"Then we'll go."
Dong Ping took the reins of Zhaoyeyu, waved his hand to the rear, and said with a smile: "Thank you two for your kindness, come to Dongping City tomorrow to find Director Zhu, he will explain everything to you."
After speaking, under the old man's blank expression, Dong Ping had already gotten on the horse and walked away.
Dong Ping and the others spent half a day rushing to Qingzhou, and searched for several hours nearby, seeing that it was almost dark, but there was still no clue.
"That kid is really, where the hell did he go?" Li Qingzhao pursed his lips and said, "I've found several villages, but there is still no progress."
"Big brother!"
Well?
Dong Ping looked to the side and saw that Yang Zaixing and Shi Bao had already rushed over with 1,500 people.
"We haven't found any clues, how are you doing?" Yang Zaixing asked in a hurried tone.
"Not good." Dong Ping looked at the Qingzhou city not far away, but suddenly smiled and said: "Since they have already come, if we don't even enter the city, won't we be a little bit out of his face for Wen Huanzhang."
