Shi Guida's mission is very simple, go to Qinghe County to capture an alien hidden among the eunuchs.

Eunuchs are a big trouble in the local area, these people come from all over the world, voluntarily castrated, hoping to enter the palace as a slave, and one day they can soar, but the palace can not accept so many people, almost every year to prohibit self-castration, and even send troops to expel them, and those caught will be sent to the frontier.

The eunuchs had no choice but to flee outside Beijing, but they had nothing left anyway, and they were even more emboldened, and they often gathered on both sides of the official road in hundreds, even thousands, to intercept passing vehicles and pedestrians, to ask for money and money, and to disperse in a hurry when they saw the officers and soldiers.

The most widely circulated story here is not who grabbed the most things, but that someone was elected to the palace, and someone was promoted by relatives and friends who advanced to the palace, and had food and accommodation in the capital, and lived the life of a rich man......

Shi Guida led thirty lieutenants and fanzimen out of the city, all the way south to the border of Qinghe County, made a simple arrangement, sent his subordinates to intercept everywhere, leaving only four people around, changed into beggars' clothes, prepared to blend into the group of eunuchs, quickly captured the target, and then retreated.

As for the eunuchs, it was not under his control, and he never asked why they had to be captured alive and not killed.

"Zhang Yi, nicknamed Prince Dan, is thirty-two or thirteen years old, relatively tall, with a scar on his forehead, and must be captured alive." Shi Guida explained the task to the four people around him.

One of the four was Huo Shuangde, a close eunuch sent by the factory to assist in the arrest, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, I have already arranged it, someone will lead the way later, and it will never be wrong to point out who catches whom." ”

The other three didn't have names, and even Huo Shuangde didn't know how to call them, so he could only glance at them one by one when he spoke.

The three of them nodded at the same time, expressionless and silent, they were either dumb or did not like to talk.

They are all strangers, for this arrest task, Xichang was specially seconded from the palace, Shi Guida was not sure if he had the power to control these three people, and he tried to be polite when he spoke.

"It's best to have Mr. Huo lead the way." Shi Guida was even more polite to this eunuch.

"The great work of getting the hand, Shi Baihu, you are lucky."

"It's all up to Manager Huo and three colleagues to carry, as the saying goes, it's good to enjoy the shade under the big tree, so I'll rely on you." Shi Guida really didn't know what to call these three strangers.

Yiren still just nodded, Huo Shuangde laughed, and then frowned slightly, "Brothers who grew up together, why is there such a big gap in life?" ”

Shi Guida smiled and said: "Hu Guiyang has been a maverick since he was a child, and he has never been a person from me. But he is indeed bold enough and lucky enough, so the scenery is still now. I don't have the surname Hu, and I have long broken off the brotherhood with him. ”

"That's right, he's just bold and lucky, but how long can he be bold? Luck can still be by his side every day? He is walking a dead end, he doesn't know it, and he still runs to the end, how ridiculous is it? Forget it, don't mention him, Shi Baihu is a person who understands, let's go? ”

"Please lead the way."

Huo Shuangde recognized the way and looked at Shi Guida and the other four, "No matter how shabby you are, you don't look like beggars, no way, try to bow your head and put your hands in your sleeves." He looked at his hand again, "I don't look like it, alas, I've been away from here for too long, and I've gained a lot of weight." It's a pity that I can't make a public appearance, otherwise I would scare the people here to death. ”

Huo Shuangde looked proud, and Shi Gui immediately said, "Manager Huo has to promote at least a few people back to the palace on this trip, right?" After this incident, Manager Huo's reputation is even louder. ”

"Haha, that's of course, you can't let them lead the way in vain, I don't care about reputation or anything."

Enjoying Shi Baihu's praise, Huo Shuangde led a few people to turn onto the path and enter a ruin.

It was supposed to be a small town, but after being deserted, it was occupied by hordes of eunuchs, and a large number of shacks were built in the ruins, which were still ruins in the distance, and the occasional smoke rose to indicate that it was inhabited by living people.

A thin boy like a monkey suddenly popped out of the roadside and said with a smile: "Third uncle, you are finally here." ”

Huo Shuangde was taken aback and said angrily: "Who is your third uncle?" ”

"Hehe, my father said that when I was a child, I played with the third uncle in the mud, and I was called a brother, shouldn't I call 'third uncle'?"

"Monkey cub less nonsense, what about your father?"

"Third uncle come with me, what do you call these adults?"

"Don't call them adults here, you don't need to know them, just know me. Why haven't you grown up? Seems to be shorter than when I left. ”

"My father said that I will grow back, I think it's good, grow a little smaller, and be a plaything for the third uncle to relieve boredom."

"Phew, I'd rather have a real monkey." Huo Shuangde was stern in his mouth, but he enjoyed such words very much in his heart, and he couldn't help but hold his head high, and he didn't look like a eunuch than Shi Guida and others.

In a simple shack full of foul smell, the father of the little monkey, the old monkey, was wrapped in a broken bed and shivered, as soon as he saw Huo Shuangde, he immediately had to stand up, and even tried several times without success, so he had to kneel down and say: "Manager Huo is here, please sit down, alas, I don't have a clean place here, a small stick, kneel on the ground and give Manager Huo a stool." ”

The little eunuch agreed, and immediately knelt on the ground, "Please sit down with the third uncle." ”

Huo Shuangde covered his nose, "Forget it, I don't have time to sit idle, take us to find someone." ”

"It's too early, the man hasn't come back yet, wait another half an hour, he's always been punctual." The old monkey put the pillow on his son's back, "Don't look at the little stick is thin, it's not small, and it won't let Manager Huo fall." ”

"Half an hour...... Huo Shuangde sat down slowly, moved twice, and said with a smile: "Don't say it, it's quite stable." ”

The little stick laughed, and the old monkey laughed too, and said to the four people at the door: "I don't know what to call these distinguished guests, I'm here...... Or sit on me. ”

The old monkey turned over and was about to kneel, but Shi Guida hurriedly said, "No need, we are martial artists, it's okay to stand for a while." ”

The old monkey and Huo Shuangde reminisced about the old days, flattered to the fullest, and found that he should be called the third uncle of Mr. Huo, and the little stick was called the third grandfather.

No matter how nice the flattery is, there are times when he gets tired of hearing it, Huo Shuangde finally remembered that he was just assisting in the arrest of people, not the real chief, so he pointed to Shi Guida, "This is Shi Baihu from the West Factory, don't look young, he is deeply valued by the factory officials, he is responsible for this arrest, you will answer whatever he asks." ”

The old monkey was about to flatter again, and Shi Guida hurriedly arched his hand and said, "I really have a few things to ask." According to the news you sent to Xichang, the Assassin's name is Zhang Yi, who calls himself 'Prince Dan', and hides among you, saying that he has killed three Inhumans in the capital. ”

"Yes, he said that he is the only descendant of the gods, so he is the 'prince', and he takes Jindan day and night, so he is called 'Jindan Prince', referred to as 'Prince Dan'. He also said that in ancient times, there was a prince Dan who asked someone to assassinate Qin Shi Huang, but he didn't succeed, and he wanted to inherit the will or something. ”

"What a crazy guy."

"Everyone said so, so no one believed him, so I had a lot of hearts, and let the little stick secretly follow me, and found that the prince Dan was really holding the red jade and sucking it, and he could fly the eaves and walk the wall."

"If you say no, you don't, I can't keep up." The little stick said with difficulty.

"Don't speak, beware of the flashing of Mr. Huo." The old monkey scolded, then turned to the guest, and smiled all over his face, "Later, I deliberately tricked him, he said that the three people he killed were Huang Erxian, Tong Feng and a nameless fool. I remember Tong Feng's name, and his uncle, Yang Shaopu, left only a few months ago. So I asked someone to go to Beijing to deliver the letter, and Manager Huo really brought someone here, he really trusted me so much, I didn't know how to repay it. ”

"Don't come to this set, wait until you confirm that it is really an alien and capture it alive, there will naturally be your reward, and you don't need to wake me up now." Huo Shuangde understands very well that it is the old monkey who needs to be "repaid".

Shi Guida continued to ask, "Does Prince Dan use weapons?" ”

"I've never seen him use a weapon, but he often plays with a small box in his hand."

"Receiver." Shi Guida understood as soon as he heard it, and believed a little more, "Is there anything he particularly hates or is afraid of?" ”

"I really didn't pay attention to this, but he wasn't afraid of getting dirty, and he picked up and ate the steamed buns that fell on the ground for almost a day, and he didn't care about the stones in them."

This is not a weakness, Shi Guida didn't ask any more, turned to the three strangers, and whispered: "The boss's order is that he must be captured alive, if this person is really an assassin, his skills must be extraordinary, please deal with the three carefully." ”

All three nodded at the same time.

"It's almost time, little stick, go outside and see if Prince Dan has come back."

"Yes, please ask the third grandfather to move his buttocks."

"Respect the butt? My ass has been promoted. Huo Shuangde smiled and slowly stood up.

The little stick ran out of the shack with his hands and feet, and soon came back, and whispered, "Come back, brag to a bunch of guys in the 'dormitory'." ”

Shi Guida said to Huo Shuangde: "Please wait here for a while." ”

"Wait for the good news." Huo Shuangde watched a few people leave, and he was not worried about the arrest, "To tell the truth, I can only take one person back to Beijing this time, you are too old and sick, the palace will not want it, just a small stick, he is very clever, and he may be able to mix up in the future." ”

The old monkey knelt on the ground and kowtowed, "The third uncle is very kind, and the Hou family will be a cow and a horse in the next life." ”

Huo Shuangde smiled and said nothing, the more miserable the person in front of him, the more comfortable he looked.

The only intact wall in the ruins that shelters from the cold wind, known as the "sleeping palace", is a gathering place for the eunuchs when they have nothing to do, and the bonfires are constantly burning to provide some heat.

The stick pointed at a man standing by the campfire and whispered, "That's him." ”

The man's clothes were tattered, but his face was flushed and his eyes were bright, which was very different from ordinary eunuchs.

Shi Guida couldn't get any closer, and nodded to the three Inhumans who accompanied him.

Each of the three took out a red pill, pressed and rubbed it with both hands, and the palms quickly turned red, and then spread out, approaching the bonfire from different directions.

The little stick asked curiously, "What does it mean to paint red palms?" ”

Shi Guida stared at the so-called Prince Dan and whispered: "That's the pill of the West Factory, which can make Yiren unconscious." ”

"Oh, the West Factory is really amazing, I hope I can go to the West Factory in the future."

"Factory fathers like children, behave well, you have a chance."

The little stick smiled on his face, "I'm going to attract the attention of Prince Dan and provide you with a chance." ”

Without waiting for Shi Guida to agree, the little stick ran to the bonfire, knelt on the ground for a long time, and carried a person on his back, which did not affect his pace.

"Prince Dan, are you telling the story of murder again? I don't believe it. The little stick shouted from afar, and sure enough, it attracted the attention of Prince Dan.

"It's not a killing, it's killing a stranger, if you don't believe it, go to the capital to inquire."

"You don't have to go to the capital, there are three dogs in the capital here, with red drugs on their paws, they want to capture you alive, and you have the ability to show us!"

Shi Guida was frightened, and finally realized that this was a trap.
