Luoyang, in commerce, in a residential house. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

A white pigeon fluttered its wings and landed, and a man came out of the house, gently picked up the pigeon, took off the note tied to its feet, and then stroked the pigeon's feathers a few times before letting it fly.

"Sir, my lord's reply has arrived." The waiter came to Xu Yu with a note and handed it over respectfully.

Xu You opened the note and looked at it, and then his face was happy. Seeing this, Lu Xiang, a big man with a big figure who followed Xu You, asked eagerly, "Sir, what did the lord say in his letter?" ”

"Liji has already set off for Luoyang, I believe we will be able to complete this mission and leave Luoyang soon."

Xu You said as he put the note in his hand on the oil lamp and lit it, and the note immediately turned into ashes...

At this time, far away in Youzhou, on the lush official road, two horsemen galloped over.

"Huh, Brother Zhao! After a long day's journey, let's take a break! By the way, eat some dry food to fill my stomach first, I am almost hungry and fall off the horse. ”

When the knight surnamed Zhao heard this, he slowed down his horse's pace. looked at the sun that had moved to the center of the sky, promised to come down, and ran around for a long time, and the knight surnamed Zhao also felt hungry.

The two of them found a shade in the forest to rest temporarily, and the knight surnamed Zhao took a few bites of the dry food on his body, and then said: "Feng Bao, after the front, you will enter the territory of Jizhou, let's hurry up after eating, we have come too smoothly this way, I always feel that something is not very right." ”

The full name of the knight surnamed Zhao is Zhao Tai, and both of them are secret agents of the imperial court. This time I came to Youzhou to investigate, and I have obtained important information and am ready to return to Beijing to resume my life.

Feng Bao has only been in this industry for a short time, and he is also young. It's just that he is clever and has learned good kung fu to disguise, so this mission was taken by Zhao Tai's side, and it is said that this mission is his first mission after joining the secret agent organization.

The task was successfully completed, Feng Bao felt very relaxed, laughed and said: "Brother Zhao, we are doing this unknowingly, it is estimated that it is difficult to say whether they find it or not, even if they find out, we have been gone for so many days, they can still catch up with us, just rest assured!" ”

Zhao Tai is a person who has worked hard in the secret agent team for many years and has rich experience. The mission he completed in the past was not thrilling, this mission was too smooth, and he did not encounter any danger along the way, but he always had an intuition that told him that things were not so simple.

Feng Bao's words also have some truth, maybe he is really too nervous. Zhao Tai chuckled after hearing this and said, "It would be better if that were the case." ”

In Yuyang County, in the backyard of a magnificent mansion, a bearded man was sweating loess, holding a big knife weighing about dozens of pounds. There was a row of maidservants and servants waiting beside him. Some carry basins, others take towels. Look at this pomp, not half a point worse than those princes and nobles.

Not far away, the butler walked quickly through the courtyard with a note, walking in a hurry, his eyebrows locked, obviously encountering a troublesome matter that could not be solved.

"Master, the old slave has just received the news and has something important to report." The housekeeper came to the backyard and said eagerly.

"What's the other thing you can't talk about later? I want to come at this time. The bearded man did not stop, and said while dancing, his tone a little displeased.

"The lord really can't wait, something happened to Xu Wu!" The butler hurriedly replied.

When the bearded man heard Xu Wuer's words, he immediately stopped dancing the big knife, handed it to the family, and then took the towel handed by the maidservant and wiped the sweat on his face, and said to the housekeeper with a serious expression: "This is not the place to talk, come with me to the study." ”

In the study, the bearded man took the note in the butler's hand, and after reading it, he was furious and shouted: "This group of waste." When did this happen? Why do you only report it now? ”

The housekeeper was so nervous that he couldn't care about wiping it at this time, and hurriedly replied: "Counting the time of the quick horse report, it should have happened three days ago." ”

"Three days! You idiots. It's been three days since it happened, and now you report it to me and there's still a fart, and the person has already run away and disappeared! When the bearded man heard the time, he became even more angry, and picked up the inkstone on the table and threw it at the butler.

The butler couldn't dodge, hit the corner of his eyebrows, wailed, and blood flowed. Even so, the butler didn't dare to run down immediately, and stood aside with his wounds covered, blood flowing through his palms, all over his face, and he looked terrible.

Seeing the blood, the bearded man's anger finally calmed down a little, closed his eyes and pondered for a moment, then opened his eyes again, his eyes were wide open, exuding a cold color, and he commanded: "If you take something, you want to run!" It's not that easy. Send our best fast horse here now. Day and night, I rushed to Black Wind Village and Qinglong Village. Tell them to give me to guard me on the official road of Youji and Youhe, and if I see those two, I will be killed. ”

The bearded man had a low voice, and he spoke ruthlessly, like a terrible ghost who got out of trouble in hell, and it made people chill when they heard it. The butler agreed, and immediately went down to make arrangements.

There are only two roads leaving from Youzhou, one is the official road leading from Youzhou to Bingzhou, and the other is the official road leading from Youzhou to Jizhou. On the side of Bingzhou, there are many high mountains, the road is rugged and difficult, and it is very difficult to walk and more time-consuming, so Zhao Tai and Feng Bao finally chose the relatively flat road on the side of Jizhou.

When I came to the border with Youzhou and Jizhou, it was getting late. On both sides are mountains and forests, and they are sparsely populated. The two finally found an old hunter's house nearby to find a night, and finally avoided sleeping in the open.

Black Wind Village is a group of tough bandits at the junction of Youji. There are so many people that there are no less than thousands. Usually he makes a living by robbing past business travelers.

In the village, the big boss Zhang Xiong is holding his wife to drink and play with him. was in the happy place, the cronies of the guard outside the door suddenly came in and quickly came to Zhang Xiong's ear and whispered a few words. After hearing this, Zhang Xiong slapped the table and shouted: "His daughter is a woman, and he is finally here!" Lao Tzu waited until his hair turned white. Tell the brothers to take the guys and go down the mountain with Lao Tzu to chop them up. And what about the son of Orion? Ask him to lead the way. ”

Zhao Tai felt that the old Orion family looked at the two of them a little wrong since dinner. After many years of secret agent career, I have long known these skills in observing words and feelings. I was suspicious in my heart, and I couldn't help but secretly keep an eye on it.

"Squeak!" The sound of the door opening was very slight, obviously someone deliberately made the action very carefully, but it still woke up Zhao Tai, who was pretending to sleep.

By this time the night was very deep, and there was silence all around. The moon above her head hung crooked high in the air, like the scythe of death. Even though it's almost February, the night in Youzhou is still cold and windy.

Zhao Tai quickly moved to the window to check, and saw that the old hunter's son was leading his own mule and walking out of the door in full suit.

Zhao Tai knew that the situation had changed, and quietly returned to the bed to wake up Feng Bao, who was sleeping. Feng Bao slept quite soundly, and was suddenly woken up and couldn't figure out the situation, Zhao Tai whispered the situation in his ear, and immediately became sleepy.

"Brother Zhao, what should I do?" Feng Bao was a little nervous.

"We'll slip out of this window in a moment, I'll lead the horse, you go open the door, let's go quickly! Remember to move lightly and don't alarm them yet! "Zhao Tai has been in battle for a long time, and the arrangements are orderly.

"What if they find out and chase them out?" Feng Bao asked about his worries.

"Are your knives vegetarian? If you chase them out, what kind of situation will you tell them! Zhao Tai's face was hideous, revealing two rows of white front teeth, which was very penetrating.

The two of them walked out of the window with light movements, leading the horse to open the door, and their movements were very careful. Luckily, it didn't alarm anyone. The two of them walked out of the courtyard and led the horse for a short while, and only after a long distance did they untie the rags that were held on the horse's hooves, and then turned over and rode away.

When the old Orion's son led Zhang Xiong to arrive, Zhao Tai and the others had already walked for a while. The old hunter excitedly begged for a reward. Zhang Xiong didn't break his promise, threw a bag of money to him, and then led people to rush into the house of Zhao Tai and the others, and slashed at the bed.

Zhang Xiong made the first knife and knew that the situation was wrong. The knife went down, but there was no sound of flesh. So he shouted angrily, "Stop, stop! Stop. Then I lifted the bed and looked, and sure enough, there was only a thick quilt inside, and I didn't see half a figure.

"Female horse, leave a few people for me to slaughter the whole family. Others chased me, it was so dark, they were not familiar with the road conditions, and they couldn't run far. ”

The black bear touched the quilt and found that there was still residual heat, so he gave an order decisively. The thieves roared away, and a terrible scream was heard behind them.
