Liu Chan led Du Jie and his party to hurriedly walk towards the Junlai Hotel. The hotel was still full of people, and the boss looked at Liu Chan Although he was wearing a brocade robe, Du Jie and the others behind him were dressed as sergeants, and he didn't dare to slack off, so he hurriedly greeted him with a smile.

"A few military masters, are you going to eat and drink? Come on, come on, come on, please. "The boss is also a delicate person, since he is in business, he naturally has to greet him with a smile, not to mention a few sergeants.

Liu Chan scanned the entire hotel from the moment he walked into the hall, but he didn't see Zhang Yingying's figure at all, and he was even more worried, but he kept telling himself to be calm and calm.

Liu Chan looked at the smiling hotel owner, took a deep breath and asked calmly, "Boss, have you ever seen a woman eating wine here?" ”

"Woman?" The boss was stunned for a moment, thinking that there are so many people coming in and out here every day, how can I remember them! But he still smiled and said embarrassedly: "This, I have so many people coming in and out here every day, I can't remember it clearly!" I wonder what kind of woman you're looking for? ”

"Bold!" Looking at the boss's dishonest appearance, Du Jie snorted coldly: "Don't talk nonsense, what kind of woman is there, that's our wife, it's in your store, tell me where to go, if your wife can't find it, you all don't want to leave here!" ”

After Du Jie finished speaking, he glanced at the soldiers behind him, and the soldiers closed the door directly, standing on both sides of the door with spears in hand.

Originally, the boss was just a businessman, but in the traditional society of "Shinong Industry and Commerce" at that time, a small businessman naturally had no status, not to mention that he was still a sergeant who was yelling at him now.

Looking at the sealed door, Liu Chan didn't stop it, and still looked at the boss calmly.

The boss really panicked, and hurriedly apologized with a bitter face, "Master Jun, the villain really doesn't know who is the lady that Master Jun is looking for, let's make a small deal, and please be gracious to Master Jun!" ”

"Dare to be hard-mouthed!" After Du Jie finished speaking, he was about to order the soldiers to tie up the boss, Liu Chan grabbed Du Jie, he knew that he couldn't ask anything about such intimidation, so he looked at the panicked boss and begged for mercy calmly, "Boss, have you seen a woman who came in by herself, and then a group of big men came to drink with her." ”

These are what he heard from Pusan, and if he only asks the boss woman, the boss really can't answer at once, but with these obvious characteristics.

The boss was stunned for a moment, instinctively followed Liu Chan's words, and after a pause, the boss was suddenly overjoyed: "Yes, yes, yes, it is true that there is a young woman who just came here to drink, and not long after drinking, a group of big men seemed to know the woman, and then a group of big men sat down with the woman and asked for some wine." ”

"And then." Seeing that the boss didn't say anything about this, Du Jie shouted urgently.

was yelled at by Du Jie, the boss instinctively shrank his head, and looked at Du Jie helplessly: "They left after drinking." ”

"You!" Hearing that the boss said that there was nothing else, Du Jie was furious, and was about to have a seizure, when he was pulled by Liu Chan, who was frowning.

Liu Chan frowned and continued to remind: "What did they say during the banquet, or what did they say when they left?" ”

The boss who was originally exquisite, was stunned by Du Jie's yelling, but after Liu Chan's "gentle" reminder, he seemed to suddenly think of something.

The boss touched his head and thought hard about all the things that happened after the woman came today, and after a pause, he suddenly said: "Yes, I remembered, when I left, one of the big men also said to the woman, little sister, you go to the eldest brother like this, you are not afraid that he will worry about you!" But the woman didn't pay attention to what the big man said, and said that she wanted to go to the mountains with the big man to live for a few days, I really don't know anything else, the military master is gracious, the family all rely on this ancestral shop to eat! ”

"Little sister, big brother, on the mountain." Liu Chan glanced at the helpless boss with a bitter face, and then slowly muttered these key words in his mouth, and then remembered that Dao Pu San said that one of the big men was a nearby bandit.

Liu Chan dared to conclude that Zhang Yingying did go to the mountain with the bandits, "But why do you call Yingying a little sister, it seems that Yingying still knows them, what the hell is going on!" ”

Liu Chan couldn't think of an answer, but now was not the time to continue thinking about it, after all, it was a thief who was with Zhang Yingying, and he was still worried that something would happen to her.

Liu Chan calmed down, and asked Du Jie beside him, "Is there a bandit here?" ”

"Bandits?" Du Jie thought for a moment, and suddenly said: "There is indeed a group of bandits on the mountain at the junction of the north of the city and the Cao thief. ”

"Childe, do you suspect that Madame was robbed by that gang of bandits?"

"I'm not sure yet, but this gang of bandits is the most suspicious, so without further ado, take me there."

"Childe, we can't do it! That gang of bandits also has a hundred and ten people, so I'm afraid a few of us can't do it. Let's call the general and call the brothers to go together. Hearing Liu Chan say to go now, Du Jie hurriedly stepped forward to persuade.

"It's too late, you call someone to inform Uncle Wei, and the others will come with me now."

Liu Chan waved his hand, did not listen to Du Jie's dissuasion, and walked directly to the door of the hotel. Du Jie looked at Liu Chan's urgent appearance, and knew that he couldn't be dissuaded, so he hurriedly ordered one of the soldiers to go back to report the news, and the others followed Liu Chan with him.

Before waiting for the city gate, Du Jie ordered the soldiers to bring horses, the north gate of Hanzhong City is an important checkpoint to defend Cao Wei, even in the years when there is no war, the garrison is very strict, and the war horses have always been stocked.

Du Jie showed his waist card, and the guards brought the war horse, Liu Chan was not polite, and rode the war horse and Du Jie and his party went out of the north gate and ran north.

The further north you go, the more rugged the road becomes, and in front of you is the border pass, where the Han army is stationed, and to the west of the border pass is the continuous mountains, which became a natural barrier between the Han and Wei states.

Looking at the tall and continuous peaks, Liu Chan suddenly felt heroic in his heart, but this was not the time for him to be heroic.

After walking for a while, Du Jie took Liu Chan to the bottom of a high and steep peak, the whole peak was covered with a layer of verdant plants, like a green hairpin, which was actually steeper than the mountain peak next to it, and seemed to reach into the sky.

"Childe, the bandit should be on this mountain, this peak is the steepest around, legend has it that even the wild geese can't fly over, so it's called Luoyan Mountain, and then the bandits occupied this mountain, relying on the terrain to rob pedestrians, the general has also encircled and suppressed several times, but this place is too difficult to attack, not easy to encircle. Sometimes the Cao thieves called, and the thieves would help us fight the Cao thieves together, and later the general slowly became too lazy to care about these thieves. Du Jie looked at the mountain peak with steep eyes and explained to Liu Chan.

Liu Chan nodded, looking at such a steep peak, from the bottom of the mountain to the top of the mountain is smooth rocks, and couldn't help asking, "How can you go up such a steep peak?" ”

But before Du Jie could speak, he saw the grass and trees not far from the mountain moving, and now there was no wind, Liu Chan naturally saw it clearly.

Sure enough, after a while, two men were revealed, both of them holding spears, but their spears were not as smooth as those held by the soldiers, but very rough, as long as the iron on the spears was polished to a very bright light, apparently they had been made by themselves.

The two of them on the mountain had a straw robe split on their bodies, looking like chameleons under the cover of the same green peaks, they really couldn't find it if they didn't look closely, and the two seemed to have deliberately let Liu Chan and others find out.

One of them, a man with a spear in his hand and a weed in his mouth, looked at Liu Chan and the others under the mountain and said disdainfully: "What are you doing, don't you see that this is our territory?" ”

"What is your territory, you are just a bunch of bandits, our general is too lazy to care about you, and he really takes himself seriously." Looking at the arrogant bandits on the mountain, Du Jie snorted coldly.

The bandit didn't pay attention to Du Jie's words at all, spit out the weeds in his mouth, and then took out a big bow from behind him, drew the bow and arrows, and stared at Du Jie under the mountain with a sneer.

Liu Chan squinted at the movements of the bandits on the mountain, and felt bad, a whip was whipped on the buttocks of the war horse under Du Jie, the war horse was in pain, and the front hooves jumped up with a neigh, Du Jie hurriedly and subconsciously tightened the reins of the horse, and at this moment he only listened to "Oh! With a bang, a cold arrow landed impartially on the front hooves of Du Jie's horse.

Du Jie couldn't help but shudder when he looked at the cold arrow, if it wasn't for Liu Chan pumping the horse just now, it is estimated that this cold arrow would have fallen on the horse's body now, thinking of this, Du Jie couldn't help but nodded at Liu Chan gratefully, Liu Chan looked at the mountain thief with a heavy face.

The thief seemed a little surprised that he didn't shoot the horse, frowned, and then continued to disdain: "This time it's a horse, next time it's a human." Get out of here! ”

Liu Chan knew that there was no way to go on like this, looked at the bandits on the mountain, took a deep breath, and shouted: "This brother, we have no malice here, I am here to find my lady, if my lady is here, please let her come to see me." ”

"What's your lady or not, find a woman to go to the brothel to find it, we don't have your lady on the mountain, hurry up, I'm not afraid of you officers and soldiers." The bandit who had just shot an arrow on the mountain slowly took another arrow from behind him and put it on the bowstring, looking at Liu Chan and the others under the mountain, he said impatiently.

Liu Chan's face was cold, his dark eyes stared at the bandits holding arrows on the mountain, and at this moment, he saw the sound of horses' hooves coming from behind, and Wei Yan led a team of cavalry to hurry here.
