Chapter 68: Each Bears a Ghost (Part 2)
With the silver and white moonlight on the horizon, Han Yu followed Shi Xin, a bandit with a goatee, bypassing the main road where he might encounter bandits, and instead walked along the rugged path that few people walked.
When he came to the thatched house of the big boss Yue Youchong, it was already dark at night, although the big boss Yue was righteous but suspicious, except for his cronies guard Tao San, there were no other bandits around, and the guard Tao San, who looked indifferent, looked at Han Yu and searched his body arrogantly, and only after confirming that he was unarmed, he turned his head and nodded slightly to Yue Youchong who was standing on the side.
Yue Youchong said to Han Yu that there should be officials and soldiers in Shiyun Village, but he would rather believe it or not, and he can't play any tricks.
"Brother Han, please!" Yue Youchong, the big boss, had a friendly smile on his face, and he was full of kindness and pulled Han Yu into the thatched house.
Han Yu, who walked into the thatched house, looked around quietly, although it is not spacious here, but there are a lot of books on display, the desk near the window is calligraphy and painting, the pen, ink and paper inkstone are neat and new, the ink in the inkstone is not dry, it seems that Yue Da often writes, on the counter near the bed on the right, several robbed guzheng bamboo flutes are carefully placed, it is obvious that there is a careful wipe every day, the eight immortal tables and wooden chairs that are quite exquisite are quite ingenious, and the whole house is decorated with a sense of elegance.
Yue Youchong invited Han Yu to sit down with a smile on his face, and said quite straightforwardly: "Brother Han doesn't have to see outside, since he is teaching and teaching the archery skills of the brothers, that is, the brothers in the village, it doesn't hurt to say anything!" He didn't rush to ask about the ins and outs of the matter, and didn't even mention whether the goatee thief had reported it to him, of course, this was done deliberately by Yue Youchong, because the more he wanted to get benefits during the negotiation, the more indifferent he became, otherwise it would only make the other party sit on the ground and raise the price, and Yue Da was very confident, since Han Yu invited the brothers in the village to come and spread the word, that is to say, there must be something to ask, and what was mentioned was only to make Han Yu subconsciously think that this news was not as valuable as he imagined, and he would say it eagerly.
It's a pity that Han Yu is not so easy to fool, he has never eaten pork and seen a pig run? Yue Da's mind naturally couldn't hide from him, and he didn't play it at all, but slowly pointed to the cultural and antiquities of the house, and the words and paintings were nonsense, with a posture of wanting to talk nonsense with Yue Youchong until dawn, Yue Da's master was nearly fifty years old, and his energy was naturally not comparable to Han Yu, and finally he couldn't help but break the deadlock and asked: "I heard that Brother Han once said that there is an eagle in the cottage to catch Sun Neiying, I don't know if this is true?!" ”
"It's coming!" Han Yu said secretly in his heart.
It seems that Master Yue has decided to compromise slightly, so he quietly straightened up, and said with a fist salute: "This matter is very important, and it needs to be considered in the long run!" "Han Yu has patience, since Yue Da is impatient, he continues to play Tai Chi, anyway, he has time to accompany Yue Da to spend slowly.
Han Yu's mind also couldn't hide from Yue Youchong, but the matter hadn't been done yet, and half of the words were said ambiguously, but here Tian shamelessly asked for benefits, this scoundrel's temperament is really a waste of talents, Yue Da said with a smile for a while: "Brother Han might as well draw a debut, and Yue Mou should think in the long run." He listened to how Han Xiaozi would open his mouth first, and he was interested for a while.
"After the matter is completed, please be sure to reward Miss Su to the next!" Han Yu looked calm, and said an astonishing sentence unhurriedly.
"Han Yu, you seem to have a bit of an inch!" Yue Youchong's face sank, and he said in a deep voice in an unkind tone.
Su Jin, the daughter of the governor of Xuzhou, who was robbed up the mountain, is not only a life-saving charm and cornucopia of thieves, but also has an outstanding appearance in twenty-eight years, and the three masters are all involved, but for fear of killing each other for a woman and brother, everyone tacitly raised Su Jin, as for the belonging, there is no conclusion so far, Su Jin was robbed to the bandits' nest for several months, and he really ate well and slept well, but he was still a virgin, but this does not mean that Boss Yue, Xiao Lao Er and Lou Lao San have forgotten Su Jin, but pay more attention to kindness, And Han Yu actually wanted to compete for the beauty they regarded as a treasure, this was obviously looking for his own death, if it weren't for Yue Youchong who could still use Han Yu, I am afraid that Tao San would have been called in and cut off the head of the thick boy in front of him.
Han Yu bowed slightly and smiled calmly, clenched his fists and said, "Don't worry, Master Yue, I'm doing all this for you!" ”
Yue You laughed angrily, and asked with a sullen face: "It's a good one for Yue, you said to listen to it!" ”
"The reason why I want Miss Su is because I learned from the chatting with the brothers in the village that Yue Da is in charge, Xiao Hu is in charge and Lou Zi'an is in charge of the third family and has affection for Miss Su, just because I am worried that I will break the brotherhood for a woman, in this case, it is better to reward Miss Su in Xia first, and cut off the thoughts of the other two masters, and when the big boss is placed in the next mountain, Miss Su will definitely return it completely, I don't know what the big boss Yue thinks?" Han Yu talked about it, since he learned the secret news of the village from the thief talk, he had already made a bamboo in his chest, and he was not worried that Yue You would not be able to take the bait.
"Don't be greedy for small profits, you must have big plans!" Yue Youchong didn't lose his mind, but instead sneered even more coldly, "Why are you doing such a thankless job?!" ”
"Just to survive!" Han Yu looked at Yue Youchong's eyes and explained a little helplessly.
What do you mean by that? Yue didn't understand! He asked knowingly, in fact, Yue Youchong knew very well in his heart that Han Yu had already guessed that half a month later would be his death, and if he killed the brothers in the cottage, he should not think about his life, let alone be put down the mountain, otherwise how could he win people's hearts, the bandits would never sacrifice their lives for a leader who did not value their lives, as for teaching archery, it was just a pretext, no matter how well or badly it was taught, it could not change the fate of Han Yu being killed.
Han Yu smiled calmly, stood up and hugged his fists and said: "Although I am stupid, I also understand that I owe my life in my hand, and the big boss will never let go of me, but I will always believe that the enemy of the enemy is a friend, and this official army should have a blood feud with me. ”
The big boss Yue Youchong's face was cloudy, which made Han Yu's heart hang unconsciously, if Yue Youchong couldn't take the bait, no matter how perfect his plan was, it would be in vain.
"If you want to live, this is the most credible!" A smile rose at the corner of Yue Da's mouth, and he agreed to Han Yu's proposal.
"Here's the thing..."Han Yu immediately informed the master Yue of the plan with Peng Li in detail, and would also add a certain analysis, since Peng Li planned to use him, Han Yu naturally used it unceremoniously, and everyone didn't owe each other.
The more Yue Youchong listened, the more frightened he became, his face became hideous for a while, he didn't expect Peng Li to make preparations with both hands before going up the mountain, and he didn't feel a chill in his back for a while, if the unsuspecting cottage brothers were suddenly attacked by more than 30 good men under Peng Li, whether they would be taken away Miss Su to go down the mountain is not yet known, but if the fish dies and kills Su Jin, I'm afraid it won't be long before the official army will kill the village, Yue Youchong doesn't want to die, so Peng Li must die.
At midnight the next day, hearing the chirping of partridges, Han Yu went to meet Peng Li as promised.
In order to gain Peng Li's trust, Han Yu selectively informed Miss Su of the situation where she was detained, because if he said it too accurately, it would arouse the suspicion of the very shrewd Peng Li, and Han Yu had already learned from Yue Da Boss that in fact, Peng Li had already sent someone to investigate the surrounding situation clearly, and let him investigate just to attract the attention of the bandits.
Looking at Peng Li's smug and calm expression, Han Yu sneered in his heart, but his face was still quietly acting on the spot, after receiving Peng Li's guarantee to save him and receiving a bag of more than 100 taels of silver, Han Yu retired with a thousand thanks.
On the third day, night gradually fell, Peng Li, who was afraid of a long night and a lot of dreams, was ready to make a move, and took a group of good hands to follow the route that had been planned, avoiding the patrolling bandits all the way, and came to the cave where Miss Su was imprisoned very smoothly.
