Yang Kai and Xu Gang quickly packed up the belongings they were carrying, and the two of them came to the courtyard to see that the innkeeper had already fed the three horses with forage. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Ding Qian took out the silver in the inn and settled the store with the innkeeper.

The innkeeper took the silver handed by Ding Qian and said, "Guest officer, I didn't say to leave yesterday, why did I suddenly remember to leave." ”

Ding Qian said: "The shopkeeper, I wanted to stay in your inn for a few more days, but first, this war has started, and there is no business to do in the chaos, and secondly, you can also see, my little brother was injured by the darts of the county lord of Yinhua because of a quarrel with the county lord of your place, so we have to leave here quickly, lest the county lord of Yinhua come to the inn again to find trouble, and we ordinary people can not afford to provoke the county lord." ”

The innkeeper smiled and said: "I see that there is a big county lord pressing, and the matter is over, you can rest assured that you will stay here for a few more days, and besides, you are in the horse trading business, the more you fight, the more scarce horses are, and you can make a lot of money if you get it right." ”

Ding Qian sighed and said: "Alas, whether to make money or not is a trivial matter, mainly because I am afraid that the silver will not be earned, and it will not be cost-effective to throw my life here, and no matter how much silver I have in my head, it is not for others to prepare." ”

The innkeeper nodded and said, "Okay, you can really see it." As he spoke, he lowered his head and rummaged through the drawers, trying to find broken silver for Ding Qian.

Ding Qian hurriedly stopped and said: "Shopkeeper, my brother has been injured in the past few days, and you have been affected by decoction and soup, so you don't need to look for a few pieces of broken silver." ”

The innkeeper smiled when he heard this: "Thank you so much, welcome to come again next time." ”

Ding Qian nodded and said, "Okay." With that, he came to the courtyard and walked towards the city gate with Xu Gang and Yang Kai leading the horses.

The innkeeper chased after him and waved his hand and said, "The three guest officers are going slowly!" Standing there, I saw Ding Qian's three people walking away, then I turned around and walked towards the courtyard, came to the courtyard, patted my head, and said to myself: "No." With that, he walked out of the courtyard and ran towards the county king's mansion.

The innkeeper trotted all the way to the county king's mansion, but was stopped by the soldiers guarding the gate and said, "Who dares to go to the county king's mansion casually." ”

The innkeeper panted and said, "Master Jun, the little one is the shopkeeper of the Ruyi Inn, and there is an urgent matter to report to the county prince." ”

The soldier said, "What's the matter?" ”

The innkeeper said, "The three I found seem to be spies. ”

The soldier said: "Do you say that whoever looks like a spy is a spy, I see that you old guy still looks like a spy, get out!" The prince of the county has no time to deal with you. ”

The innkeeper stiffened his neck and said, "I can tell you, if this spy escapes, it will be your guilt." ”

The soldier scolded: "Fart, there are many spies there, I see that you old guy is obviously trying to trick a few people into appreciating honeysuckle." ”

At this moment, I only heard someone in the courtyard: "Who is making a noise outside the door?" With the voice walked out of a man dressed as a forty-year-old county prince, the soldier hurriedly bowed and said: "Report to the county prince, this old guy lies to the public and has bad intentions." ”

The prince of the county said: "How can he lie to the public, and how can he have bad intentions." ”

The soldier said, "Lord Jun, he said that the three spies found in his inn. ”

The prince of the county waved to the innkeeper and said, "Come, you come close and speak." ”

The innkeeper hurriedly took two steps forward and said, "Lord Jun, the villain really found three spies." ”

The prince of the county said kindly: "Oh, this spy hat can't be buttoned casually, it will kill the head." ”

The innkeeper said: "Lord Jun, in this blue sky and white day, how dare the villain open his eyes and say nonsense, those three people are indeed the traitors of the Great Song Dynasty." ”

The prince of the county said: "Then this prince came to ask you, on what basis did you say that the three guests who lived in your inn were spies. ”

The innkeeper said: "Lord Jun, these three people came to the small inn four days to stay, their registered identity is a horse dealer, but they came for three or four days, and they didn't see them go to the man to buy horses, but one of them often goes out to go around, today they suddenly said that they want to leave and go back to their hometown, but when he came, he said that his hometown is in Yanzhou, so if you want to go back to Yanzhou, you should go out of the West Gate, but they went directly to the south gate, running to the direction of Xiongzhou, which is the territory of the Great Song Dynasty, At this time, the two countries were in danger of fighting, and it was too late for others to evade, but they risked their lives to run there, obviously to pass information back. ”

The prince of the county heard that the innkeeper was vigilant, and the analysis made a lot of sense, and he stretched out his hand and gave the soldier two big slaps and said: "Bastard, this shopkeeper obviously has an important situation to report, but you do everything you can to stop it." As he spoke, he turned to the guards who followed him and said, "Everyone hurry up and get on the horse, go to the south gate with this prince to capture the Great Song Dynasty spies, and catch a reward of silver for three mornings and one hundred taels." ”

When more than a dozen guards heard this, they jumped on their horses, followed the horse of the county prince, and rushed towards the south gate of Youzhou City.

When he came to the south gate, the prince of the county did not dismount, and asked the centurion who ran over: "Did there be three horse dealers dressed up and go out of the city just now?" ”

The centurion said: "Lord Yujun, there is." ”

The prince said, "How long have they been?" ”

The centurion said: "It can run for about ten miles." ”

The prince of the county scolded: "Bastard, why don't you check carefully, those three people are spies, hurry up and lead your people, get on the horse and go with this prince to chase the spies." ”

The centurion hurried to the wall, took his horse, jumped up, and shouted to his thirty soldiers: "Brothers, get on your horses." Go out of the city with the prince to chase the spies. ”

More than 40 people chased out of the city gate.

It stands to reason that Ding Qian, they went out of the city first, and the county prince couldn't catch up at all, but first, Yang Kai was injured and didn't dare to hit the horse and run away, and secondly, Ding Qian, they didn't expect that the innkeeper would recognize their identity and run to the county king's mansion to report, so they didn't gallop quickly.

The three of them were talking and laughing while letting the horse trot, and at this moment they suddenly heard the sound of horses' hooves like thunder behind them, Ding Qian looked back and saw the dust flying, and said in surprise: "It's not good, there are soldiers and horses chasing after you." ”

Xu Gang said disapprerovitically: "It's impossible, eighty percent are passing by." ”

Ding Qian shook his head and said, "No, it's better to be careful." Come on! As he spoke, he urged the war horse to gallop forward, and Yang Kai and Xu Gang also hurriedly beat their horses to follow.

The Liao army shouted behind him: "Spy, stop, if you don't stand still, you will open your bow and arrows." ”

Ding Qian and the other three didn't say anything, just stuck their bodies on the horse's back and whipped the horse's buttocks fiercely.

However, although Ding Qian and the others fled first, the prince of the county and those guards rode all good horses, and soon caught up, seeing that the distance between the two sides was getting closer and closer.

Xu Gang took off his bow and arrows on his horse and came to a rhinoceros looking at the moon, and "swishing" sent out three arrows to shoot down three horses running in front, which is called shooting people and horses first.

Although he shot down three pursuers, the others still chased after him, and the one who ran in front was the prince of the county.

Xu Gang pulled out three more arrows and shot them with a "whoosh", but Nazhi was pulled away by the prince of the county.

The prince of the county laughed and said: "Southern barbarian, carving insect trick, but Er'er, hurry up and get off the horse and surrender, spare you and don't die." Otherwise, when this prince catches up, he will divide your five horses. ”
