Chapter 257: The City Gate is in Turmoil
As soon as he got out of the tunnel, there was no timely light for a while, and Mo Shuyan couldn't help but reach out to cover his eyes, so as not to be too uncomfortable from the sun.
After a while, when his eyes got used to it, Mo Shuyan looked around and found that this place turned out to be a firewood house, and the person who opened the plank just now closed the plank very calmly, and then began to chop firewood on the side, as if everything was none of his business.
"Brother Yan, it's time for us to go." Jia Xu said softly.
The big guys all looked like they were ordinary, and Mo Shuyan was not too different, so he nodded and left with Jia Xu.
Walking out of the firewood room, the noise suddenly sounded in my ears, and several men who looked like little two walked back and forth, walking in and out with the leftovers or hot meals that they had picked up.
Walking out further, Mo Shuyan determined that this place was a restaurant, it was noon, the guests were full, although Jia Xu and Mo Shuyan and others walked in from the backyard, but the civilian clothes and disguises they were wearing did not make those spies hidden in the guests not pay much attention.
When he walked out of the restaurant, even Jia Xu breathed a sigh of relief, so that he could be regarded as getting rid of those annoying mice.
"Let's hurry up, that fabric shop is just another street, not too far from here, and when they react, I'm afraid it will be a little troublesome." Jia Xu said.
"In that case, it's better to go first."
Mo Shuyan doesn't have a good impression of these guys hiding in the shadows, but he doesn't have any disgust, but he still doesn't want to be noticed.
"Send two men to lead the horses, and we'll go first." Jia Xu commanded backwards.
"No."
Immediately, the two of them walked out of the entourage and walked quickly to the horse shop next to the restaurant.
And Jia Xu led Mo Shuyan and the remaining two entourages to the side and walked towards the city gate.
When Mo Shuyan and his party walked to the gate of the city, the two entourages also led three horses each to catch up, in order not to attract attention, Mo Shuyan proposed to lead one horse per person and go out of the city in batches, so that the goal would be smaller, and naturally it was also recognized by Jia Xu.
In the end, it was decided that Mo Shuyan and Jia Xu would go together, and the entourage would go out of the city in twos and twos.
The two entourages opened the way first and went out of the city first, but they were directly stopped by the soldiers defending the city, Mo Shuyan and Jia Xu could only stop to see why.
"Why can they go out of the city and we can't?" One of the attendants asked in a deep voice.
"They don't have horses, you have, so you can't get out." The defender explained.
"How can you travel far without a horse?"
"That's your business."
The soldiers defending the city were a little impatient, and their voices raised slightly: "Abandon the horse, let it go, don't think about leaving if you don't give up, and make trouble again, then it proves that you are an enemy spies, and you can be arrested immediately!" ”
"Who gave him the courage to defend the city like this?"
Jia Xu was a little angry, and wanted to come forward to argue, but was stopped by Mo Shuyan.
"Aren't you revealing your identity again when you go up like this?" Mo Shuyan asked in a deep voice.
However, Mo Shuyan didn't think so in his heart, and even had some suspicions, why he was just about to rush to Xuchang, and Hangu Pass couldn't pass, which made it difficult for Mo Shuyan not to think about Xu Zisheng, so Mo Shuyan simply stopped Jia Xu to see if this was a show, and if he continued to make trouble, there would always be some flaws.
However, there was not much calm at the city gate, and seeing that the two entourages had not left yet, and had stopped the rest of the people from entering and leaving Hangu Pass, the soldier defending the city suddenly became angry, and suddenly pulled out his sword and shouted angrily: "These two must be enemy spies, and they will all be taken." ”
As soon as these words came out, all the soldiers defending the city drew their swords and faced each other, and the gates of the city, which had been crowded, were suddenly empty, and those who went out of the city retreated, and those who entered the city also retreated, leaving only the soldiers guarding the city to surround the two retinues.
And the spies in the city gradually rushed over when they heard the sound, sighed, Jia Xu no longer paid attention to Mo Shuyan's obstruction, stepped forward, took out a token from his arms, and presented it to the soldiers guarding the city.
In an instant, the soldiers defending the city who drew their swords against each other were like frosted eggplants, and they knelt on one knee and bowed their heads.
The soldier guarding the city named Shou was even more remorseful, his intestines were blue, he knew that he was the uncle of Chang'an, and he didn't dare to stop him.
"The adults atone for their sins, and the little ones have eyes and don't know Mount Tai, and if they offend the adults, they deserve death."
The defender's body trembled, and his back was almost instantly wet with sweat.
Jia Xu saw that the crowd had gradually gathered around at this time, where was he still in the mood to punish this person, so he kicked the soldiers defending the city away, suppressed the anger in his heart and said: "Don't get out of the way quickly, after we leave, no one will be allowed to leave the city for an hour!" ”
"No."
Without being asked, the soldiers defending the city were overjoyed, and if they would not agree, they quickly retreated to the side.
"Hurry up, or those people will come." Jia Xu turned to Mo Shuyan and reminded.
Hearing this, Mo Shuyan hurriedly turned over and got on his horse, rode his horse and galloped away, and Jia Xu and Yiying's entourage also left, leaving only a bunch of people who wanted to go out of the city and enter the city here.
After Mo Shuyan and the others left, the soldiers defending the city dutifully fulfilled their promise, not letting anyone walk through the city gate, and announced that the city gate would be closed for a quarter of an hour.
Many spies in the city have not yet had time to arrive, and the spies outside the city do not know the identity of Mo Shuyan and others in disguise, so although everyone knows that Mo Shuyan and others have a big identity or a big identity backer, they don't know their identity.
But Mo Shuyan and the others, who left in a hurry, found that someone followed behind, obviously there are still some bold spies of art masters, who are unwilling to let them go, and can make the soldiers guarding the city of Hangu Pass admit the existence of it, no matter how you look at it, it is also a piece of fragrant bait, even if there is no gain, it is convenient to get that token in and out of Hangu Pass, and even Chang'an, this is something that many forces need.
However, Jia Xu did not panic at all and sent two followers to stay, and then led Mo Shuyan and the other two followers to leave.
Looking at at at least a dozen people behind him, Mo Shuyan was a little worried, although these are retinues, they are also lives, and they should not be used to break the queen, but at this time, they are galloping, and Mo Shuyan is not good to ask.
But it didn't take long for Jia Xu to suddenly slow down a little, and Mo Shuyan, who didn't know why, could only slow down, it stands to reason that he should have fled at full speed now, why stop? The doubts in Mo Shuyan's heart became deeper and deeper.
However, the reality did not give Mo Shuyan a chance to ask questions, because the two entourages who stayed behind before actually followed, and there was a lot of blood on their bodies, but no one followed behind, and the result was self-evident, Mo Shuyan's eyes shrank, and he finally realized the strength of these four entourages.
