Chapter 795: Eyes in the Dark
The camp was full of laughter, but Zhao Xin's face was sad. Drinking one sip after another, there was no drunkenness in the stomach after a pot of wine, and the conversation inside could be heard occasionally, and the matter of the founding of the country seemed to be denied. Not only did he not build the country, Su Ren also gave Thorn the idea of guarding the caravan, from Jincheng to Shanshan, all the merchants who passed by needed to pay a 10% escort fee, which made the vulgar guys in the big tent very happy.
Someone came over to spread the word and asked him Zhao Xin to send the antidote to Su Ren's men. Zhao Xin got up and threw the wine gourd into the fire, the alcohol concentration of the wine was too low to burn, but it extinguished a small fire. Walking in the dark, Zhao Xin wrapped the fur of his whole body tightly, leaving only a pair of eyes. The cry of the night owl was miserable, and it went far and wide with the wind.
Zhao Xin did not lead the soldiers, and walked alone in the night, only the shadow followed behind him. Under a big tree, Zhao Xin stopped and shook his head to sober up, and after gasping twice, he rubbed his face a few times with his hand before continuing towards Su Ren's camp.
Hawking has been let go, and the people who were originally helped have all been released. Looking at this guy who came to deliver medicine, Hawking's eyes were full of anger, if it weren't for Gou Tianming and Shi Bao to stop him, Hawking could tear this guy in front of him apart. Everyone else is similar, they have suffered such a big loss, no one feels good, and now Su Ren is still in the hands of others, although he is a friend, he can't keep it for the sake of the more goods here, who knows what those guys can do.
Huang Shisan and Manniu wanted to break into the camp, but in the face of a few heavily armed horse thieves, the two of them couldn't get close even if they tried their best. The laughter in the camp was still there, but when it reached the ears, it was blown away by the cold wind.
Just now, under the tree where Zhao Xin went to Su Ren's camp to sober up, a black shadow came out of the forest, and after a blink of an eye, it disappeared again. This man moves so fast that no one can notice it if he doesn't pay attention. When everything went back to square one, Tsumi appeared under the tree with a lean man. I looked at the tree, it was thick and tall, in stark contrast to the low shrubs nearby, and it would take not a hundred years to grow such a tree here.
After looking around, Ah Xun said, "Can you keep up?" ”
The lean man smiled: "No one has ever disappeared in front of my winged tiger, the smell of that guy is very peculiar, like sandalwood but with the smell of musk, he must not be able to run." ”
Ah Xun sniffed with his nose: "Why can't I smell it?" ”
The winged tiger said: "You don't understand these things, naturally you can't smell them, don't worry that he can't run." ”
Ah Xun nodded: "Just follow, Mr. instructed, don't startle the snake." ”
"Understood!" The winged tiger agreed, and a cat's waist slipped into the bushes.
Ah Xun took a deep breath, this time he, as Su Ren's periphery, had already discovered the thorny human hand when Su Ren landed. However, out of trust in Thorns, he did not report to Su Ren, and watched the Thorns poison Su Ren's water source, and saw Thorns send people to wipe out Su Ren's men. Although he secretly did some help, so that Su Ren and a few people were not poisoned, this kind of negligence cannot be tolerated.
Su Ren hadn't come back from the thorns yet, and Ah Xun's heart was still in his throat. Su Ren was angry with him, what happened to him, he had already learned it in Chang'an back then. He knows very well what life means by death. It is said that those people in Maoling were not the first to go, not because they were released, but because they were dead and tired, and he knew many of them.
Sitting in the bushes on the side of the road, Tsumi took a break, and he wanted to see if the guy would leave something here when he returned. With his eyes closed, he took a nap while listening to the movement on the road. Soon, there was a sound of footsteps, and Ah Xun opened his eyes and took a look, but it was not the guy just now, but Hong Cheng. This chubby businessman has always been the object of their attention.
Hongcheng was sneaky, and instead of taking the main road, he got out of the thatched pile next to him. The fat body made him gasp constantly, and after peeking out of the thatched pile, the most eyes kept looking to both sides. The guy was careful and didn't slowly straighten up until he was sure there was no danger. After groping at the root of the tree, he didn't seem to touch anything, and Hong Cheng's face was a little anxious.
After touching for a long time and making sure that there was nothing, Hong Cheng turned around and quickly got into the pile of thatch just now. Ah Xun wanted to follow, but before he could get up, there was another sound of footsteps. This time, the footsteps were no longer handled gently, but more like normal walking, and Zhao Xin's figure appeared.
When he came to the tree, Zhao Xin pretended to sober up again, and immediately took it out again with one hand into the hole in the tree, and the expression on his face relaxed at once. Like Hong Cheng, Zhao Xin also looked around a few times to make sure that there was no one.
"Ahem, ahem!"
"Ahem, ahem!"
Hong Cheng's head came out of the thatch, and Zhao Xin followed him casually after discovering it. Ah Xun thought it was funny, the two of them were much easier than when they were connected. According to Su Ren's instructions, the connection between Tiangang and Earth is very complicated, and he doesn't know what the rest of the people he knows look like, except for the few people he knows, such as Zhiduoxing, Leopard Head, Flower Monk and the winged tiger just now. It is said that this is to prevent being caught in the net, and the two in front of them obviously have no such concerns.
After following the two of them for a while, they stopped by a small river. Ah Xun got as close as he could, and the sound of the river was a little noisy, but he also hid his whereabouts well, and the conversation between the two could be heard clearly.
"How? Didn't doubt you, did you? Zhao Xin spoke first.
"Probably not, my identity has always been a businessman, and I can trace it back to five years ago, when Su Ren was still in warm water, what about you."
Zhao Xin sighed: "This time there are some adventures, it is estimated that Su Ren has suspected it, and it will depend on you from now on." ”
Hong Cheng nodded: "Do you want to report this matter to the giant?" ”
"I've already sent it out, while waiting for the news of the giant, the two of us had better keep silent, so as not to make Su Ren suspicious."
"In a few days, I will go to Yumen Pass, and the King of Hutu will not move at all, could it be that the people sent by the giant have not been able to convince that there are a thousand guards here, and it will be even more difficult to go to the Western Regions."
"This is also a matter of no choice, I originally planned to use poison, but in the end I was denied by that thorn, if you use poison, even if you can't poison all of them, you can kill a lot, and then thorns and Su Ren turn their faces is what we want to see."
"Why do you want me to do that?"
Zhao Xin hurriedly said: "No, it's not easy to break into the caravan, in case we miss, we will completely cut off their whereabouts, which is even more unfavorable to us, after I go back, I will encourage Thorn to intervene in the caravan, even if Thorn doesn't want to do it, he can't help it." ”
The conversation between the two, Ah Xun heard it clearly, and many things in it were ambiguous, but Ah Xun could judge the plans of the two people. With these is enough, Su Ren has always seemed to figure out their purpose, but he didn't expect to get it here. The latter words didn't make much sense, and Ah Xun waited for Zhao Xin and Hong Cheng to leave before coming out of his hiding place. With these secrets, maybe Su Ren can let him go again.
Su Ren was drunk, drunk and unconscious. When Lao Heita and Hua Leopard handed over Su Ren to Huang Shisan and Manniu, their mouths were cracked behind their ears, and they laughed and told Huang Shisan: "Mr. Su's alcohol consumption is too bad, this is like a man, not even a woman." ”
Huang 13 glared at the old black tower. The leopard hurriedly accompanied the smiling face: "The two of you should hurry up and send Mr. Su back, it is windy at night, and Mr. has drunk so much wine, it will not be good if he is sick." ”
Thorns drank a lot, he was still clear, picked up the wine jug and poured another big sip, and said with a smile: "This kid pretends to be drunk and wants to run, is Lao Tzu really going to kill him?" ”
The creeper smiled: "The wolf lord and Mr. Su are friends, how can they do that kind of thing, but this time, we can be regarded as trapping Mr. Su, he won't ......"
"Won't anything? If you want his things, Lao Tzu only needs to open his mouth, and what is it to play with him? What's more, there is no one who killed him, how can he dare to win it with Lao Tzu? If Lao Tzu hadn't let him go in Shu County, he would have been a dead man by now, and he would have lied to Lao Tzu to go to the place where birds don't, what did Lao Tzu say? ”
"Yes, yes, what the wolf lord said is right, Mr. Su and the wolf lord are friends, don't worry!" The creeper hurriedly smiled.
Zhao Xin just heard this, opened the curtain and walked in: "The wolf lord and Mr. Su are friends, why don't you go to the Western Regions with Mr. Su, we got a lot of things from the Xiongnu, and it is useless for the Han people to buy the rest in our hands, it is better to follow Mr. Su to the Western Regions to sell it." ”
Thorn slapped his thigh: "Eh! The military advisor is right, why didn't Lao Tzu think of it? Su Xiaozi can't do anything else, he is absolutely the best in the world in business, so it's decided, I'll go to him early tomorrow morning to talk to him. ”
Su Ren got down from the back of the wild bull after leaving the thorn camp for half a mile, glanced back, and patted the back of the wild bull: "Let me down, Lao Huang will go to find timely rain, let him come to see me immediately, so many horse thieves are around us and don't report it, and inform everyone to set off overnight, it is not suitable to stay here for a long time." ”
"You!"
"It's okay, Thorns haven't intended to attack me yet, but it's better to stay away from them, the 30,000 horse thieves will be the focus wherever they go, and we'd better stay away from them to be safe."
Before Huang 13 left, Ah Xun suddenly appeared. This scared Su Ren a lot, and the wine woke up immediately, and he raised his foot and kicked Ah Xun's chest: "You still have the face to see me?" Say what's going on? Lao Tzu was almost killed by you, and if you dare to assert yourself in the future, you know the consequences. ”
Ah Xun bowed his head and knelt on the ground: "The villain is negligent, please punish Mr., but before he dies, the villain has important information to tell Mr." ”
"Hey!" Su Ren sighed: "Get up, I can't blame you for this, who knew that Thorn actually took in that Zhao Xin, if you have something to say, I still don't feel safe here." ”
