Chapter 129: Instead of Reserved and Waiting
Chapter 130: Instead of Reserved and Waiting
"Hall Master, if you want to do it." Zang Jin, one of the four heroes of the Eagle Hall who was sitting on the side, calmly suggested: "Although Ye Tao's kid is tender, it is impossible for him to have no capable people by his side. A man who becomes a governor before the age of twenty has a promising future...... I'm afraid there are a lot of ideas around me. They can only surprise when they are not fully prepared. By tomorrow...... I'm afraid it's not thirty people, it's estimated that there are more than three hundred. ”
Mo Leng said: "That's certain. Dongping and Yunzhou have a good relationship, and they have long learned from the Dai family how to raise eagles to deliver messages. Important military intelligence is instantaneous, much faster than ours. It is said that Ye Tao had eagle keepers around him a few years ago, let alone now. ”
Zang Jin was a little puzzled: "Although there are some ways to march and chess, Ye Tao is just a manufacturer of furniture, table clocks and so on." Although the Blood Qijun performed very eye-catching the year before last, in the final analysis, it was Dai Yun and Qiu Haohui who made us look away, and nothing happened to him. Isn't Ye Tao just a favored minister, a fortunate minister? At best, he can be regarded as a very powerful craftsman, how can he make the top 20 list? ”
Zang Jin's doubts are also the doubts of many others. Such doubts not only exist in Xiling, Chunnan, and Northern Liao, which do not know much about Ye Tao's deeds, but also exist in Dongping.
Mo Leng didn't think so, I'm afraid that those wise men of the Daoming Sect, the elders, put Ye Tao and that Tan Weixin on such a list, and they were more concerned about their potential. There are indeed geniuses like meteors in this world, there are stars who have been surrounded by stars since birth, and there are also many talented people who will collapse the whole system without their silent rotation and planets, but many people can do that because of their talent. But some people are different. They may not always catch people's attention, but their potential is amazing. If everyone is a container, some people have to empty themselves to make others notice their presence. But some people, a little bit of water, it will overflow other people's ankles, making people have to look sideways. Although the water will eventually slowly seep into the soil and disappear, it does not mean that there is no water in the container. Maybe it's just that the container doesn't want to pour out the water anymore.
Mo Leng finally made up his mind: "Lao Zang." You go and prepare. Gather your hands and raid tonight. ”
Zang Jin's eyes flashed, and he said, "Hehe, yes." ”
With Mo Leng's order, many people in the Eagle Hall hidden in the Wang family's manor moved.
Ye Tao finally couldn't eat a stable dinner. The news of his arrival in Ninghe Town soon let Lejia Baoshantang know, and the shopkeeper of Baoshantang, who is also the head of Lejia's branch, Leping immediately brought the cook, ingredients, and Luo Ming, the chief physician of Baoshantang's enshrinement place, together with two young people in the martial arts world who wanted to find an opportunity to serve the imperial court.
Ye Tao may not be so enthusiastic about Baoshantang's medicines. He doesn't pay so much attention to the martial arts people who want to join him, but he can't be indifferent to the authentic local food delivered to his door. He was rather pleased to receive the group in the rented yard.
The heavy chef with about four Ye Tao was by no means as bright-tongued as some chefs that Ye Tao had seen in his later life, and the fat man of Mu Ne was nervous and speechless after introducing some ingredients and dishes. But the Baoshan Hall worshippers Luo Ming and Feng Wei chatted extremely happily. Although Feng Hao did not want to become a doctor, he was expected to pass on his talent and the teaching he had received since childhood. The exquisite and transparent medical pharmacology made Luo Ming feel like she had met a soulmate, although the two were at loggerheads on some specific issues. But the pure academic exchange between the two people, who was also very graceful, was generally carried out in a friendly atmosphere.
The food is satisfying, and Leping of Baoshantang is even more satisfied with having a subordinate by Ye Tao's side who is proficient in pharmacology. Although they offered medicinal herbs to the royal family to establish greater fame for their Baoshantang, it was also their heart to serve the royal family. They knew that the Imperial Physician had doubts about whether or not to use this special recipe to disperse life, and they were afraid of taking responsibility. But if they can explain the origin of their confidence to this colt master, and can get the approval and support of the subordinates around the pony master who are proficient in medical science, then the matter should be more than half of the matter. Leping was not in a hurry, but at this sumptuous dinner, he briefly mentioned the problem of the vitality of the improved formula. Ye Tao's mind is not on this now, but he still expressed considerable interest, and agreed to visit Baoshan Hall in a few days to discuss the matter in detail. For this result, Leping and Luo Ming are already very satisfied.
While Ye Tao was receiving guests, Bi Xiaoqing didn't dare to be sloppy. He sent out to deliver the letter with a guard and a handyman. There were too few people under his command, so he really didn't dare to send more guards out. Although Han Dong took out fifty people from the only five hundred soldiers in Ninghe Town to patrol around the hostel where they were staying, if he ran into a more alert martial arts person, I was afraid that these people would also be blinded. Bi Xiaoqing had no choice but to fully mobilize the eleven people in his hand, eight people guarded all parts of the garden, and three people went out to patrol the guerrillas.
After the two young martial arts people were introduced to Ye Tao, they did not leave. Ye Tao was still a little unaccustomed to the fact that two young martial arts people wanted to join his own sect, and he didn't know if it was appropriate to accept two martial arts people at this time. Suo ** gave Bi Xiaoqing to deal with this matter. Bi Xiaoqing gave it a try. I asked again, and found that these two guys are really good. And the background is extremely innocent, it is impossible to have anything to do with Xiling, at this tense moment, in line with the principle of pulling the dishes into the bowl, the two of them were left with enthusiasm and skill, and settled down in a side room.
"Your Excellency, you'd better not rest too early tonight, and if you can hold on, you'd better be awake. When the guards arrive tomorrow, although they dare not say that everything is perfect, at least they have the bottom of their hearts, but now, just these ten or so people......" Bi Xiaoqing said to Ye Tao seriously.
Ye Tao nodded and said, "Just do as you say, I'll read in my room at night." ”
Staying up late is really an ordinary experience for Ye Tao. But in this era, because the lighting is always not so sufficient, Ye Tao has not been so interested in staying up late to catch up with work. Perhaps, it is also due to this era. The requirements for time are far less intense and precise than those of later generations.
Although Sophie felt that the atmosphere was a little tense, as if something was going to happen, she did not sit and wait for the dawn like Ye Tao, but lay on the bed and fell asleep. She is a smart girl, and with Ye Tao's connivance, she has always had a thoughtfulness for Ye Tao in her more and more flamboyant and charming personality. What if something happens. Don't let Ye Tao worry about herself, it's her judgment.
Not far from the courtyard, the staff of the Daoming Sect Eagle Hall had already been placed one by one. Compared to the weak defense in Ye Tao's courtyard, the lineup of Eagle Hall can be said to be luxurious. There were more than thirty of them. Although most of them were not very strong, it was more than enough to contain the equally poor soldiers of Ninghe Town who were cruising around. The only ones who were really ready to raid the courtyard where Ye Tao landed were Mo Leng and Zang Jin. Another "Four Ying" Jing Xiaochan and the four guys who came to Dongping with Mo Leng. What they needed was a surprise attack, not to kill all the people in the courtyard, Mo Leng was extremely confident in his own ability and that of his men, thinking that this should be enough.
The only thing that is not enough may be Mo Leng's determination. He couldn't make up his mind. Because he knew that no matter whether this raid was successful or not, Dongping would not have a good response. He is not one of those "warriors" directly under the Daoming Sect's main altar, those fanatics say that they want to be punished for anyone who appears on the list. will not hesitate to pounce on and bite. Naturally, the reasons for the people who must be eliminated are also different in the explanation of those who must be punished, and those reasons are so ridiculous in the eyes of those who are far more rational than fanatical in the Eagle Hall. Mo Leng wouldn't believe that Ye Tao was a demon from heaven, and he wouldn't think that Wei Xin was a demon girl or something...... But in this world. As long as there is a reasonable explanation, there is a different environment, there is incitement and brainwashing, nothing cannot be believed. Mo Leng looked at the sky. The courtyard where he was located that had been deserted for a long time looked a little bleak.
The sudden falling rain left a little chill on Mo Leng's face. Don't be cold. Originally, it was a weather with thick clouds and only occasional moonlight, which was perfect for raids and assassinations, but now, it was raining...... Is this providential? The thin streak of rain will largely drown out their footsteps, sweeping away their tracks, making their raids and subsequent evacuations untraceable......
Case. Mo Leng felt. Rather than being reserved and waiting......
"Zang Jin, Jing Xiao Chan...... Take two of you with you. Let's do it. Be careful. ”
"Yes, hall master." The two responded in unison, turned around and left.
"Xiaoguan, you can go too. It is enough to let the outside chaos for half a quarter of an hour. Mo Leng said to the other person who was waiting.
"Yes." In the dark, the guy named Xiao Guan left silently, his task was to start messing up the patrolling soldiers outside before the three of them raided, if he could attract the attention of Ye Tao's guards and lead a few, it would be ideal.
Mo Leng also jumped into the darkness, although he didn't feel that he really needed to participate in the raid, at any time, whether it was for himself or for the Eagle Hall, for the sake of the Daoming Sect, protecting himself was the first priority.
In the courtyard where Ye Tao was staying, the two young people who were new today woke up. Zhou Zhi grew up in the mountains since he was a child, and the method of practicing martial arts is very different from that of martial arts youth of the same age, according to a relatively easy understanding, his training since childhood is a combination of fighting and wild survival compound training, with extremely high alertness, for murderous energy, for any snooping are extremely vigilant. It was not the people of the Daoming Sect Eagle Hall who were still some distance away who woke up thoughtfully, but Bi Xiaoqing. When inspecting the yard again, Bi Xiaoqing, who was extremely depressed, unconsciously showed a trace of murderous intent......
Zhou Zhi woke up Wu Ping'an, who was arranged to be in a room with him. "Brother Wu, something is not quite right, it seems that Lord Ye's guards are guarding against something." Zhou Zhi said softly.
Wu Ping'an shook his head and said, "...... Does anyone dare to assassinate an adult? ”
Zhou Zhi thought for a while and said: "The lord obviously didn't bring guards and honor guards, and he was simple and obedient, but he suddenly had to show his identity to meet officials and local gentry, which itself is strange. ”
Wu Ping'an shook his arms and said, "Could it be ...... What does it have to do with the recent events in Ninghe Town? ”
Zhou Zhi nodded and said, "I'm afraid it is, but if something happens today, I'm afraid it...... It's dangerous. ”
Wu Ping'an, who was extremely nervous, said in a deep voice: "It is the opportunity for my generation to show his skills in front of adults. ”
The two of them are just young people who have just risen in the rivers and lakes. The rivers and lakes are an extremely realistic place, and in order to make a name for themselves in the rivers and lakes, in addition to having the ability, you must also have money...... This is also the reason why Meng Weichun Shen has been in an endless stream for thousands of years. Zhou Zhi came out of the mountains, and his most capable skills were not only fighting, but also hunting and cooking wild meat, if it weren't for his Lao Tzu who was Zhuo Mang's servant back then, I am afraid that his foundation would have to be investigated for a long time. And Wu Ping'an is no better, he is a person who grew up in Wujiazhuang, the most famous poor sect in the martial arts, and Wujiazhuang's greatest ability is not to fight, but to plant trees. The Wu family's fruits are selling well, but although the grain prices in Dongping have been greatly reduced in recent years, they are really a little nervous that the Wu family's fruit forests have to feed so many people. Joining the imperial court is the most realistic development route that these two young people who hit it off can come up with. Ye Tao has a character like Bi Xiaoqing by his side, which makes the two of them feel something.
Bi Xiaoqing is a disciple of Liu Meng, the head of the internal guard, and his kung fu is naturally not bad. With Bi Xiaoqing's background, even if the position of the head of the internal guard is inevitably impossible to hand over to Liu Yong and Liu Meng after the two brothers take up one after another, but with his identity and connections, he will be at least a general if he is released to serve in the army in the future. Putting a character like Bi Xiaoqing next to Ye Tao, and Bi Xiaoqing would actually agree, can only explain two reasons: first, following Ye Tao is more promising than the original development; Second, protecting Ye Tao is a more important thing than being a general, and Bi Xiaoqing needs to make such a sacrifice. No matter what the reason, if the two of them can get Ye Tao's attention and follow them all year round, with Ye Tao now less than twenty years old, as long as they can hold on for a few years, at most ten years, the money they can earn and the status they can obtain will be quite satisfying. Even now, when the two of them just came, the monthly monthly salary made their hearts beat for a while.
"What are you afraid of, Baoshantang is next door, if something happens, desperately. As long as you don't die on the spot, it's fine. Wu Ping'an's words made Zhou Zhi also make up his mind.
