24. Qi Shuai's anger

There is usually only one truth, but where did the thief go? Ye Sizhong and I returned to the barracks, puzzled. I asked him to issue a curfew, and then asked the Nine Ghosts to take a few people and sprinkle fluorescent powder all over the camp after the curfew.

The powder is so fine that it is impossible to see without looking closely, and is a common tracking method for ninjas, who have been trained to recognize it perfectly. I took a few people with me, and it was when I found footprints outdoors and on the wall that I chased them all the way to the room. But after a long time, I found nothing! Ye Sizhong asked suspiciously, where did he go?

I was thinking about another question: Why did the thief go to the room alone? After wondering for a long time, we asked, "What are the arrangements for the room every day?"

Ye Sizhong said: "Do you suspect that someone in the room is making ghosts?"

I shook my head and muttered, "No! I'm just asking. ”

Ye Sizhong asked again: "Important?"

I replied, "Important!"

Ye Sizhong patted the table and said, "Okay! I'm going to call the guys now! ”

About ten minutes later, the leader Liu Dasheng arrived at the barracks where we were. When I saw us, I was confused. I told him not to be afraid, and explained in detail the daily work of the guy.

That Liu Dasheng promised, thought about it, and began to talk in detail. Starting from getting up in the room in the early morning every day, washing and tidying up, cleaning vegetables, and washing rice, I have been chattering until putting out fires and cleaning up the kitchen in the afternoon. Rice and noodles are transferred from the warehouse once every six months, and vegetables are brought in from the market every three days......

I shouted, "Wait!"

Ye Sizhong and Liu Dasheng were both startled, and Ye Sizhong asked, "What's wrong?"

I looked at Liu Dasheng with a smile and asked, "Your last sentence just now, vegetable ......"

Liu Dasheng sighed, and repeated what he just said: "Eat vegetables once every three days, and go to the vegetable market in the west to buy directly!"

I interrupted him again and said, "How did the vegetables come into the camp?"

Liu Dasheng was stunned and said, "Naturally...... Naturally, it was pulled in by a box car. ”

I asked anxiously, "Where is the box now?"

Liu Dasheng pointed to the back and said, "Naturally, it's in the room!"

I turned around and asked the nine ghosts Masataka: "When you just checked, can you check the box car?"

The nine ghosts were filial and filial, and said for a while: "It seems to be ...... It seems to have opened and glanced at ......"

My heart suddenly understood, and I waved my hand and said, "Hurry up!" Guys! ”

Everyone hurriedly went out with me. When I arrived at the door of the room, I signaled that everyone should be quieter, so a group of people passed quietly, Liu Dasheng gently opened the door, and the nine ghosts Zhengxiao and Mo took the lead in sneaking in, and Ye Sizhong and I followed closely and went straight to the box car.

When I got there, I pointed to the door, and then to the ink. Mo suddenly understood, and gently opened the car door! Let's take a closer look at the lantern! Really! There was a little mouse, covered with a black felt, sleeping soundly in it......

The next thing is very simple, the little mouse in the box car is named Murong Qin, it turned out to be a little thing dressed as a man, only 16 years old this year, Xianbei relic.

The ancestor of the Murong family had been a general in the Yan Kingdom, and the clansmen were particularly good at intelligence taking, and they contributed to the Anti-Yuan War, but Taizong did not have a clear reward, but the clan has always had an unclear relationship with the East and West Factories. When it came to Murong Qin's generation, the Murong family raised this daughter alone, but he was born with a male temperament, and he was not at peace since he was a child, catching chickens and dogs every day, and pestering his father to learn the craft when he grew up.

A few elders in the family couldn't help it, so they picked up a few simple things from the ancestral intelligence kung fu and fooled her casually. Unexpectedly, this kid is extremely talented, and he can get his hands on things in the intelligence business! The adults in the family are also greedy for freshness, she learned the old, and taught the new one, and after coming and going, she even learned her skills without leaving ten! This kid was already high-spirited, and he was clamoring to go to the court to do things, "mixing up with a big official to be a big official".

The family knows that except for the Tang Dynasty, when Wu Cao was in power, there were female officials, but other dynasties did not have this practice, and the Ming Dynasty was even more not. But the kid didn't listen, so the family thought of a way, saying that you went to the barracks to report, and said that you had the ability, and if they accepted you, we would give you the idea of becoming an official. This child took it seriously, came to the Guangning camp and ran a few times, but was blocked by the porter, and then he was really annoyed, and sent a general to persuade him, saying that your girl's family, go back to learn a good female worker, and marry a good family.

I never thought that this Murong Qin was arrogant since he was a child, and said that if you don't believe me, I will prove it to you! So there is a story of her borrowing a vegetable cart every three days to sneak in and steal "intelligence".

Hearing this, everyone in the room laughed, and Ye Sizhong said breathlessly: "Little girl, you really broke a lot of old cases!"

The girl was not ashamed, but proud, and said with a high chest: "That's nature! Ben girl shoots! Hum! ”

We were all amused by her, and I asked her, "So what did you get out of it this time?"

Murong Qin proudly pulled out a bag from his arms and handed it to me, "I just touched one, and you found out!" It's boring! But this bag is so deep that I took out three boxes and found them at the bottom! ”

I took it with a smile, pinched it, it should be a letter, and gave it to Ye Sizhong. Ye Sizhong also smiled: "The letter was found in the house of the guerrilla general Yan Chongsi, guess which letter he wrote to?"

I smiled and said, "What do you look at people's letters?"

Ye Sizhong said with a lewd face: "Hey, if we hadn't caught this little girl, I don't know how his letter would have been circulated!" Check it out! It's good to blackmail him for a wine and dinner, it's a big deal......"

As he spoke, the smile on his face suddenly stiffened, and the more he looked down, the blackness on his face was almost dripping! Seeing that something was wrong, I asked, "What's wrong?" Ye Sizhong didn't say a word, held the letter, looked at me fixedly for a long time, and then slowly handed the letter to me, his hands trembling slightly! Puzzled, I took the letter, scanned it, and glanced back at him. He asked me in a trembling voice, "What should I do!?"

I stabilized my emotions and said to the Nine Ghosts Zhengxiao: "Take her and follow me!"

Ye Sizhong asked me, "Where are you going?"

I said, "Go find Qi Dudu!"

Ye Sizhong said hurriedly: "It's just ugly at this moment!" You are crazy? ”

I turned my head to look at him and said, word by word, "I have to go sometime!" Are you going or not? ”

Ye Sizhong clenched his fists, then stomped his feet fiercely, gritted his teeth and said, "Go!"

When our group arrived at the Qidu Governor's camp, the doorman stopped us. I repeatedly said that there was an emergency, but he just wouldn't let go. I pushed him away and shouted, "Dudu! In Xia Sun Qilan, there is an urgent report! ”

The doorman was furious, and was about to call for someone to push us away, but he heard Qi Dudu's voice coming from the house: "Come in."

I glanced at the doorman, who was also a chief, but without speaking, I led people into the courtyard and knocked on the door. The boss followed.

Qi Dudu was wearing an overcoat, sitting in front of the side hall, and when he saw us coming in with a gray-faced person, he smiled and said, "Why are you so flustered? Who is this? ”

I glanced at Ye Sizhong, he was also looking at me, seeing my eyes, nodded, and reported to the governor: "Enlighten the governor!" This is the thief who stole letters in the camp the other day, and today we have captured her. Just ......"

Qi Dudu laughed and said, "You are the thief?" What do you want? As he spoke, his eyes looked at me, meaning, that's it?

I arched my hand and said, "This is one of them."

Qi Dudu smiled again: "What about the second?"

Ye Sizhong and I glanced at each other again, took out the bag from his arms, handed it to Qi Dudu, and said, "This bag was stolen by this thief from the house of the guerrilla general Yan Chongsi......

Qi Dudu looked strange, took the bag, glanced at me, glanced at Ye Sizhong again, opened the bag, and said with a smile: "I'll see, what did Chongsi say!"

When he opened the letter, he looked down, the smile on his face gradually became cold, and when he finished reading it, he "snapped", slapped the letter on the table, and shouted: "Someone!"

The one who always thought he was going to drive us out, and hurriedly led people to rush up, and he was going to arrest us! Qi Dudu thought about it, sighed, and said, "Go down!" But it's the doormen. The one always thought that he had heard it wrong, and hurriedly said, "Governor, I'll drive them away!"

Unexpectedly, Qi Dudu was furious, pointed at him and said, "Get out!"

That one was always scared and ran away.

At this moment, I feel great sympathy for this old man. He has always loved soldiers like sons, but at this time, I am afraid that my heart is not only angry, or sad, but more wronged!

Qi Dudu looked at the ceiling for a while, picked up the letter again, looked at it, put it down, turned his head to look at Murong Qin, and asked kindly, "Where did you get this tip?" Don't be afraid, tell me well! I won't beat you, I'll reward you! ”

When Murong Qin heard that there was still a reward, he naturally said it 1510. It's right in every way, it's not a lie. The last disillusionment in Qi Dudu's heart was shattered, and he suddenly aged ten years old. After thinking about it, he pointed to me and Ye Sizhong and asked, "Who else has read this letter?"

The two of us arched our hands and said, "No."

Qi Dudu nodded and said, "You did a good job, I will naturally be rewarded!" This girl ......"

Murong Qin said with a smile: "Say that there is a reward, don't lie to me!"

Qi Dudu was silent, and I said, "The matter of the reward will be handed over to you!"

Qi Dudu nodded and waved his hand, but he didn't look at us, just lowered his head.

I knew he was upset, so I took the people with me.

Bidding farewell to Ye Sizhong and returning to the barracks, I asked Murong Qin: "Can you do intelligence?"

Murong Qin said: "That's nature!"

I nodded, this little girl's infiltration is really a must, I am afraid that it is especially above the ink, and besides, I am not sure whether she knows the contents of the letter, and I have to keep her and interrogate her carefully. So he asked her, "You have two choices." 1. I'll give you fifty taels of silver, you leave, don't make trouble in the future. Second, I have an agency that specializes in intelligence, and if you want to come, I will give you a chance. Pick it! ”

Murong Qin didn't want to think about it, so he jumped and said, "I'll choose two!"

I also laughed: "You're not afraid that I will sell you!"

She smiled arrogantly: "The person who can sell this girl has not yet been born!" I couldn't help but be angry, but she asked again: "What is written in that letter?"

I didn't answer, but my heart sank to the bottom.

The letter was written like this--Nilan Khan of the Black Carboniferous Department: Three months ago, your army and the Tumut tribe were defeated, which was not expected, but Qi Jiguang did use his troops well, and the defeat was not shameful. Recently, Qi Jiguang transferred the soldiers to Guangning for exercises, and the Liaoyang area is very empty. My lord told me that if the Khan raised an army, we would be restrained in the court. When the Khan wins, you and I will take what we need. Hope for a quick reply.

These words were signed half a month ago.

Ten days ago, Khan Nilan, the Black Carboniferous of the Tatars, replied: "Right!"
