Chen Xu couldn't cry or laugh, and only after watching Ying Shiyan and the others walk away did he ask, "Brother Yu, have you heard about Ji Bu's whereabouts?" ”

Yu Wuya shook his head, and his face slowly became serious and said: "Now that there is a severe crackdown everywhere, I think Ji Bu must be hiding in which mountain range he dare not show up, Zijin and I have searched all over the Central Plains and have never found out the exact news, but Engong can rest assured, he can't hide for a lifetime, sooner or later he will show his fox tail, once he shows up, he can easily kill him, by the way, the last time he ambushed Engong with poisoned arrows in Hangu Pass, it was Zhong Lifu, I heard that he had escaped in Jiujiang County and didn't know where to go!" ”

"Sure enough, it's him?" Chen Xu's face fell silent, and after being silent for a long time, he sighed and said, "It's a pity that Miss Chu Yue died a tragic death, this revenge should have been avenged by me personally!" ”

"Why should Engong blame himself, let alone take risks, Zhong Liwu's heroic man is very dangerous, not only is his martial arts strong but it is said that he can shoot a three-stone hard bow, even if there is a musket and divine thunder, it can't be prevented, Miss Chu Yue saved Engong's life, and Engong also treated her well, so you don't have to take this matter to heart, not to mention that he is now hiding in Tibet like a lost dog, and it is estimated that he will soon be caught under the severe crackdown, and when the time comes, he will cut down to pay tribute to Miss Chu Yue's wish for Engong." Yu Wuya said with relief.

"Alas, what's the use of doing more when people die!" Chen Xu felt very uncomfortable.

"Engong, although we did not find out the whereabouts of Ji Bu this time, but there are some clues, two months ago we passed by a post house in Shangnan outside Wuguan, and heard a woodcutter who delivered firewood talk about one thing, not long after the assassination of Hou Ye, I saw some suspicious people hiding in the nearby mountain col, but we went to search, only found a cave and sundries discarded by eating, sleeping and discarding, it is true that there should be hundreds of people who stayed there for some time, but I can't inquire about more news, I guess even Ji Bu and others, It is also inevitable to transfer the place, this Taiyi Mountain, the mountains and ravines are staggered, the terrain is complex, and it may not be easy to find it in this vast mountain...... "Yu Wuya changed the topic and talked about some hearsay clues on the road.

Chen Xu pinched his chin and thought about it for a long time and said: "This clue is still very important, but it is indeed not easy to find, according to my guess, Ji Bu should have defected to the Xiang clan to rebel, why did he hide near Guanzhong?" ”

"Ji's Kunzhong originally lived near Guanzhong, and his reputation among the people was very high, this is their old nest, and he is also very clear about the terrain near Guanzhong, and the Xiang family is in the south, if he went to the south, maybe he would be recognized on the road, according to my speculation, Ji Bu may want to wait until the Xiang family raises troops and also take the opportunity to start an incident in Guanzhong, but he may have given up because of timidity!" Yu Wuya explained.

"Cowardice is impossible, these people are all knights who value their lives lightly, this guy dared to assassinate me in Hangu Pass, he must also be bold......"

Chen Xu pinched his chin and thought hard, in fact, if Ji Bu died with the rebellion, it would be worry-free, but this guy actually hid and didn't rebel, so he must find out and kill him, it is not too late for the gentleman to take revenge for ten years, he did not completely succeed in ambushing Chen Xu, and he also put his younger brother in, this hatred will definitely not be easy to forget like this.

Even if Ji Bu wants to forget it, Chen Xu will not give up.

That ambush not only killed Jiang Chuyue, but also killed nearly thirty of the guards and chariot drivers and the young men of the musket team in the palace, and injured more than 20 of them, several of which were seriously injured.

The Xiang clan behind the scenes has almost all died, so this account must be counted on Ji Bu's head.

If it weren't for the Ji brothers, there would have been no ambush at all, because the Xiang family wouldn't have been able to do it at all.

Therefore, Chen Xu decided to think of another way, he couldn't find it, but it didn't mean that others couldn't find it either, and mobilizing the power of the people would definitely find Ji Bu.

While the two were talking, Meng Yun and the others were all frozen with white faces and purple lips, and they returned from the canyon with a full load, each carrying a long list of five-colored fish in their hands.

Yu Wuya had long heard of the delicacy of the five-colored fish, so he didn't accompany Chen Xu to chatter, shouting that a group of servants who commanded the Hou Mansion began to set up the stove and set up the pot, kill the fish, prepare oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and seasonings to taste the deliciousness.

Chen Xu also cleaned up his mood and did it himself, and soon the river beach was full of fragrance, frying and frying to make a few pots of five-color fish with various flavors, Meng Yun and a group of people accompanied Chen Xu and Yu Wuya to start eating and drinking, and by the way, they played and drank, Ying Shiyan and Shui Qingrou, Meng Wan, Fan Caiying and a group of women also gathered on the other side to sit on the placemat and eat fish and laugh.

This kind of family fun scene has not been seen for more than a year.

After a picnic meal for an hour, after eating and drinking enough, he rested for half an hour and then set off to return home, Chen Xu immediately wrote a letter to send to Chen Ping after returning home.

Two days later, in the center of the front page of the new issue of the Daqin Metropolis Daily, a line of bold black letters was written with the news of the reward for the arrest of the bandit Shou Jibu.

"The Marquis of Qinghe will reward the first Ji Bu for the arrest of the bandits, the reward for those who are captured alive will be 100,000 yuan, the reward for those who get their heads will be 50,000 yuan, and the reward for those who have definite clues will be 20,000 yuan!"

As soon as this unprecedented reward came out, Xianyang suddenly shook, and countless knights who boasted of their high martial arts skills went out in groups to find Ji Bu, and with the spread of the newspaper, soon there were many people who knew Ji Bu in Guanzhong and Luoyang Wancheng and other places and began to act, there were hunters, knights, and Haoqiang, these people either single-handedly or in teams to inquire about Ji Bu's whereabouts and prepare to brush money.

Chen Xu believes in the power of money, and money has moved people since ancient times, once this news reaches the ears of the bandits who are familiar with Ji Bu, maybe a knife will solve this big problem.

The two of them are worried about each other, and it depends on whose strength is the fastest.

But at the moment, no matter from the status of the court and the people, or the size of the money bag, Ji Bu can't wrestle with Chen Xu, this is a completely unequal identity.

Chen Xu believes that this time he will definitely use money to smash this hero, who is known as a thousand catties of gold and is not as good as Ji Bu Yinuo.

Since the bounty was released, Chen Xu fell silent again, and now everything in Daqin has begun to get on the right track, and many things don't need him to point fingers, so Chen Xu's mind began to return to his old profession, and a lot of energy was spent on growing vegetables and grains, and he took a group of students and teachers of the Agricultural College to carry out farming demonstrations and teachings in various farms in the fiefdom all day long, grafting, cuttings, pruning, hybridization, castration of piglets, etc.

Only by continuously training a large number of officials who are familiar with the new type of agriculture to serve in the whole country can this new knowledge be disseminated throughout the country as soon as possible.

Of course, the research of the Academy of Sciences is also very important, and every few days he will go to the Academy of Sciences and the Academy of Engineering to give lectures, talk about the concept of looms and jacquard machines, and also put forward the tasks and goals of the reward, so that the craftsmen and students of the Academy of Engineering and the Academy of Sciences can study it.

Chen Xu has never seen the loom and jacquard machine in later generations, but it does not prevent him from knowing this thing, and he also roughly knows some simple principles, Daqin also has a more complex loom at the moment, but there is no clue to let it be naturally replaced for a very long time, it may take hundreds or even thousands of years, but with Chen Xu pointing out the research direction, this is a research topic with a clear direction, and it is no longer a natural development, just like smelting steel at the beginning, as long as Chen Xu told that iron ore can be melted with coal, Moreover, high-quality steel can be smelted by frying steel, so there are craftsmen who follow this idea to study and improve, and some results can be seen soon.
