The vicissitudes of life Chapter 213 is not easy to calculate

Since that day, Xiao Er reported the enemy's whereabouts, Zu Zhenlin and the others stood still on the surface, but secretly guarded carefully, and the three of them took turns to be on duty at night, beware of nonsense and surprise. It was also from that day onwards that more and more men and maids found suspicious people, and when they were eating and staying in the hotel, they knocked on the side of them to find out if there were injured people living in the store, and whether there were two men, two women and four people living in the hotel. The guys followed Zhao Ting's instructions, to tell the truth, after those people got the news, they all left happily, it seems that Hu Tu is very generous, indicating that he will never give up this time.

Zu Zhenlin and the four of them did not act rashly, so as not to startle the snake, so that Hu Tu could perceive their intentions in advance, and when the time came, it would be difficult to be brought into a trap. They still ate and drank as usual, the practice time remained the same, and Li Cao recuperated with peace of mind, so after more than half a month, they finally began to act.

According to what the maid said, the two people who lived in Tianzi No. 3 Courtyard inquired about the situation of the four people, and then Zu Zhenlin and they paid close attention to it and found that since the two of them lived in the inn, they would walk in front of Tianzi No. 1 Courtyard every day, and they should be secretly investigating. However, the two men did not go out during this time, and remained motionless in the inn. Zhao Ting guessed that it might be because the four of them had been staying in the inn and had no action, and it was impossible for those who were monitoring to tell Hu Tu everything, and they would only tell if they found something abnormal.

After Zhao Ting and Zu Zhenlin discussed, they decided to lure the snake out of the hole, she went out and walked around the city at will, the enemy could not guess their intentions, and would definitely go to know Hu Tu.

According to the plan, after Zhao Ting had breakfast, she went out alone. Sure enough, after Zhao Ting left, one of the men also left the inn and followed carefully behind.

Zhao Ting walked the streets and alleys, and temporarily got up, went to a pharmacy, and bought some healing pills and herbs, in order to confuse Hu Tu and make him misestimate Li Cao's recovery from his injuries. After that, they went around the vicinity of the county guard mansion, indicating that they would have to stay in Zhaoyang City for a long time, and if they were attacked, they could immediately flee to the county guard mansion and ask for help. In the end, she walked all the way to the South City Gate, and looked at the city gate, making people think that the four of them would finally leave through the South City Gate. After such a toss, presumably the person who is watching will definitely go to Hu Tu to explain the situation, and then he can follow the vine and touch the melon.

After Zhao Ting finished doing it, she returned directly to the Suyu Inn, and when she arrived at the inn, it was already afternoon. Li Cao was drinking tea alone in the courtyard, and when she saw Zhao Ting coming back, she said with concern: "How is it, are you okay?"

Zhao Ting smiled and said, "It's okay, don't worry, he won't be in broad daylight and shoot on the street." How's your preparation?"

Li Cao nodded and praised: "Well, it's been done, Senior Sister Leng is really powerful, after Zhenlin put on the mask, it was like a different person, and he couldn't see the slightest flaw." ”

Just as the two were talking, Leng Xue came out of the house.

Zhao Ting said: "Senior sister has worked hard. ”

Leng Xue shook her head, indicating that it was not hard.

Zhao Ting knew her senior sister's temperament, so she didn't say anything more, and directly took Leng Xue's hand and entered Zu Zhenlin's room to see the effect.

Li Cao still did not move in the courtyard to prevent the little second maid from coming in by chance.

Zu Zhenlin finished changing his costume and turned into a middle-aged man with a dark face, if he wasn't a familiar person, he wouldn't have noticed anything wrong at all.

Zhao Ting had only heard about it before, but after seeing it with her own eyes this time, she couldn't help but praise: "Senior sister, you are really powerful, if it is two people of similar shape, after you change your appearance, senior sister, I am afraid that you can replace them, and no one will see through them." ”

When Leng Xue heard this, her pupils shrank, but then returned to normal, "It's not so exaggerated, there will always be different, and people who know each other can still find it." ”

Zhao Ting said casually: "Then it's good not to be with familiar people often." ”

Leng Xue agreed: "Yes." ”

Zhao Ting just mentioned it casually, had no other intentions, no longer dwelled on this issue, and said to Zu Zhenlin: "I think those two people who are watching will definitely go to find Hu Tu at night, there is no curfew in Zhaoyang City, they should not dare to wear the house and jump the ridge, but the night is dark and unknown, and it is still a little difficult to track, Brother Zu should be careful, everything is based on his own safety." ”

Zu Zhenlin was not arrogant, and said steadily: "Don't worry, I won't act impulsively." ”

When night fell, Zu Zhenlin quietly sneaked out of the courtyard and mixed into the vestibule of the inn, and before coming out, he had already learned through Xiao Er that the two of them were not going out, so he casually found a table near the door, ordered a pot of wine, three dishes, passed the time, and waited for the two to leave. However, as time went on, the two of them never came out, Zu Zhenlin had already drunk three pots of wine, and the dishes had been eaten, if he didn't move any longer, it would make people suspicious.

Zu Zhenlin thought about it, if he returned to the courtyard and let Xiao Er keep an eye on it, when the time came, the person would leave, and Xiao Er would come back and forth, and it would delay the time, and I am afraid that the person would have already disappeared. And the matter of disguise is the key for the four of them to get rid of nonsense, and they must not be leaked, and it is difficult to ensure that people will not see it when they have been in and out of the yard many times with such a look, which is really inappropriate. After thinking about it, he directly asked for a new room, a room that was convenient for observing the entry and exit.

Zu Zhenlin entered the room, didn't dare to be careless, and kept staring, but after a night passed, he didn't see a single figure, and he couldn't help but wonder in his heart Could it be that the other party would also be disguised, and he had already slipped out?

As a practitioner, although I didn't sleep all night, I didn't feel the slightest sleepiness under the operation of the exercises. After dawn, I washed up, came to the vestibule again, ordered white porridge buns and side dishes, and ate breakfast slowly to see if the two were going out in the morning. After eating, he was still nowhere to be seen, so he couldn't help but get up and walk to the backyard, wanting to investigate. When passing by the No. 3 courtyard, they pretended to glance at random and found that the two people were inside, and they couldn't help but be a little puzzled, didn't they plan to tell Hu Tu about Zhao Ting's movements yesterday? Or did they already tell them?

Zu Zhenlin returned to the new room, intending to stare at it again. At noon, I went to the vestibule to eat again, and this time I finally saw the familiar figure, which was one of the men who was watching.

Zu Zhenlin took out a piece of silver to settle the bill, so much that it was directly used as a reward, and under the gratitude of the steward, he left the inn. After the man had taken twenty or thirty steps, he quietly followed.

The man walked around the lively street, as if aimlessly, bought some snacks at a roadside stall, ate as he went, and finally crossed the three main streets and came to a restaurant. went straight to the second floor, sat by the window, ordered a few dishes, and had lunch.

Zu Zhenlin followed in, and had no choice but to have another lunch.

The man buried his head in eating, occasionally looked out the window, and after eating, he left directly and walked down the street again. It was not until dusk that he came to a temple of great scale and a constant stream of pilgrims coming in and out.

Zu Zhenlin's eyes lit up, and it seemed that this temple was likely to be a hiding place for Hu Tu. He followed the man into the temple, but he was disappointed, the man just wandered inside, did not go to the layman's dormitory, did not meet people in the main hall, and left the temple after putting on a stick of incense.

Zu Zhenlin followed all the way back to the inn and found nothing unusual. When night falls, sneak back to the courtyard again.

Zhao Ting and the three of them did not rest, and when they saw Zu Zhenlin return safely, their expressions relaxed.

"How is it?" Zhao Ting asked with concern.

Zu Zhenlin explained the situation 1510, "On the way back, I thought about it for a while, and I think that the person passed on Miss Zhao's yesterday when he was shopping at a roadside stall. ”

Zhao Ting nodded and agreed, "He really doesn't bother." ”

Li Cao said: "It seems that it is difficult for us to find him. Actually, the purpose of our coming out this time is to help you pick strange fruits, and now that the fruits are in hand, and my injuries are going to heal, why don't we get entangled with nonsense anymore and go back to the academy directly, what do you say?"

There was a young man who was drinking at the stall, he was fat, his face was red, his eyes were very small, and there was only one line, and he turned back and echoed: "He is not lying, it is indeed good." ”

The fat man had a gentle face, and he spoke with a smile, laughing so hard that his eyes were gone.

"Thank you. Zu Zhenlin nodded.

"It's okay, look at your appearance, you're going into the mountains, right? Me too, if you meet in the mountains, you have to take care of it." The obese man is familiar.

"Definitely. Zu Zhenlin smiled perfunctorily and didn't take it seriously.

The fat man smiled and turned around and chatted with his tablemate.

After Zu Zhenlin and Li Cao sat down, they ordered flatbread to satisfy their hunger, and then ordered a chicken, two vegetarian dishes, and two bowls of wine. This small stall sells wine in bowls, saying that although the wine is good, it is easy to get drunk, so the two of them want two bowls to taste first.

After a while, Xiao Er brought the meal and poured two bowls of wine. The dish is fine, not very brilliant. The wine is eye-catching, the wine is clear and transparent, and the smell is fragrant.

Zu Zhenlin couldn't help but take a sip, there was no strong stimulation, the entrance was soft, the mouth was sweet, and the aftertaste was delicious, "It's really good." ”

"Really? Then I'll try it too. After Li Cao finished drinking, he also nodded in praise.

Zu Zhenlin drank a bowl directly and shouted, "Little Er, another bowl." ”

Xiao Er was kind, and when he saw this, he reminded softly: "This son, although our wine doesn't feel like much to drink, but it has a lot of stamina, you drink so violently all of a sudden, it's easy to get drunk, so don't drink it." ”

"It's okay, pour another bowl, I'll drink it slowly. Zu Zhenlin said.

Xiao Er could only pour him another bowl.

Zu Zhenlin and Li Cao began to eat and drink at the same time, neither of them was considered to be a good drinker, and slowly began to turn rosy.

"This wine is really strong, so don't drink it. If you are drunk, it is not good to delay finding someone. Li Cao persuaded.

"Know, won't drink anymore. Do you say that anyone knows about the Golden Thunder Eagle?" Zu Zhenlin said a little vaguely.

"How do I know?" said Li Cao.

The man who was eating at the same table with the fat man came over and asked with a smile, "Dare to ask the two of you, but you are looking for a big eagle full of gold?" Oh, by the way, the head, mouth and claws of the eagle are all silver. ”

"You know?" said Zu Zhenlin in surprise.

"If so, then I just know. The man replied.

It's really hard to find a place to break through the iron shoes, and it takes no effort to get it.
