Chapter 54: Preparations for the Fierce Battle
Nie Feng and the others changed cars and horses, and finally arrived in Fengyang City on the evening of the third day. In the inn room, he meditated and rested for more than an hour, and then, leaving the two brothers to wait for Xian Wenjie and them at the inn, he hired a carriage and quietly rushed to Longhu Town--- Zhang Yanming's lair to investigate the enemy.
As soon as Wei Maosheng of the New Emperor Sect rushed to the Xiangbei Branch, a middle-aged fat man who claimed to be the master of the Jiang Hall came out to greet them and reported: "General Wei, I just heard clearly about my subordinates, it was Zhang Yanming from Longhu Town who tied up Rong Lei and her master. ”
"Oh, it turned out to be that greedy ghost, Zhang Yanming, who once took our guns and didn't seriously help us, why did he tie them up, you know?"
"It seems that a year ago, Nie Feng and Rong Lei kidnapped him, and then let the Tianshan Divine Woman poison him, maybe he took revenge with a grudge."
"Oh, no wonder our ambush in the Rong family in Xiangbei will be seen through by Nie Feng and them, it should be this kid who revealed it to Nie Feng."
"Mr. Wei, what should we do next?" Master Jiang asked.
Wei Maosheng thought for a while and said: "Let's go to Longhu Town to visit Zhang Yanming first, probe his tone, and see if he is willing to sell Rong Lei to us, if he toasts and does not eat and drink, we will exterminate his commander's mansion." ”
"Dad, we've been on the road for so long, why don't you rest first?" Wei Fanmin said with concern.
"Min'er, the task is urgent, if Rong Lei is rescued by Nie Feng, then we will be busy again." Then he instructed: "Master Jiang, arrange for all the brothers to eat, after eating, all the brothers will go to Longhu Town with me, and we must first give Zhang Yanming a dismissal." ”
In the dungeon of Commander Zhang's mansion, Zhang Yanming laughed wildly and said, "Old woman, for more than a year, you have made it easy for Commander Zhang to find?" Commander Ben, I've been worried about a year, you poisoned me, since it disappeared on its own, from this point of view, I still admire you, you tell Commander Ben, how did you do it. ”
"Zhang Yanming, since my master is kind to you, and you are fine now, why do you still arrest us?" Rong Lei said calmly.
"Miss Rong, you are so forgetful, right? Have you forgotten how you and Nie Feng ruined my wedding a year ago, and locked me in the cellar for mosquitoes to bite. Then he smiled lewdly and said, "A year ago, you forbade me to marry Tailor Liu's daughter, but today, I will marry you in place of his daughter, and your little face is much more beautiful than Tailor Liu's daughter." After speaking, his big hand touched Rong Lei's pretty face.
Rong Lei was tied with her hands and feet, unable to move, her face was flushed with anger, and she said viciously: "Take away your dirty hands, if you dare to touch the slightest cold hair of this girl, I will let you die without a place to hide." ”
Zhang Yanming smiled evilly and said: "Rong Da Beauty, don't be stubborn first, tomorrow night is the night of you and my cave room, and then I have my own way to make you obey me." Then he said to the goddess, "Old woman, you had better persuade your apprentice to obey me obediently, or else you will suffer from it." ”
The goddess was lying on her side on the ground, her hands and feet were also tied, she looked at Zhang Yanming, smiled and said: "If you dare to touch my little cold hair, the poison on your body, when it attacks again in a month, the gods will not be able to save you." ”
"Old woman, you treat me as a three-year-old child, so easy to fool, sue you, I have already gone to the provincial hospital to check my body, and I am fine. You still think it's your dynasty, old woman, thank you for giving me the opportunity to seek revenge on you. Zhang Yanming laughed out loud after speaking.
Then Zhang Yanming said: "Don't think that Nie Feng will come to save you, my subordinates have been following you for several months, and finally let them seize the opportunity that Nie Feng and your special combat team members are not by your side." Sue you, Nie Feng is having a sweet lingering relationship with his cousin in Wuchang! With that, he left the dungeon with a smug smile.
When he was far away, Rong Lei asked, "Master, what's the matter with your poisonous insects?" ”
"I actually thought that he could change his ways, so I gave him the antidote in twelve times, who knew that this guy actually held a grudge."
"Master, I don't know if Feng'er has slowly followed the secret mark I left." Rong Lei said worriedly.
"Don't worry, with Feng'er's wisdom, he will definitely come to our rescue soon. Let's close our eyes and keep our spirits open, let's find a chance to deal with Zhang Yanming's dog thief! The goddess comforted.
Nie Feng hid on the roof and observed the surrounding situation, eavesdropping on the conversation of Zhang Yanming's subordinates, and when he heard that Rong Lei and the master of the goddess were locked up in the dungeon in the back garden, he was secretly happy in his heart, and slowly groped his way to the backyard.
Nie Feng looked down on the roof of the backyard, and saw that the backyard was full of guards, not to mention two or three hundred people, he thought: "It seems that Zhang Yanming suffered his own loss last time, and now he has already taken precautions, it is difficult to rescue his wife and the goddess master safely by himself, and he has to go back to Fengyang to wait for Xian Wenjie and them; Then think of a well-thought-out plan. ”
At this moment, Nie Feng saw Zhang Yanming walking out of a secluded room. Nie Feng thought, "That room should be the place leading to the dungeon. I don't know how the lady and the goddess are doing now. Nie Feng followed Zhang Yanming to his conference hall on the rooftop.
As soon as Zhang Yanming entered the chamber, he laughed and said: "Second brother, you and the brothers have worked hard, I am going to have a cave room with that Miss Rong who looks like a fairy tomorrow night, anyway, she has already worshiped me a year ago, although we were all fooled by her at that time, but I will let her obediently obey tomorrow night." ”
"Congratulations, Commander." The crowd said in unison. Then the one who was called the second child by Zhang Yanming said: "Big brother, do you have any good way to make that beauty comply." ”
Zhang Yanming whispered in his ear, and then, laughing, said: "Second brother, this time you tied up Rong Lei and the goddess, you have contributed a lot as the conductor, tomorrow night, the good thing of the eldest brother, you have to take the brothers to cooperate." ”
"Big brother, don't worry, I guarantee that Miss Rong obediently throws herself into the arms of the eldest brother." The second said proudly.
Nie Feng couldn't hear the plan that Zhang Yanming whispered to the second child, but he was sure that he had to rescue his wife by tomorrow night at the latest, otherwise, she would be in danger.
Nie Feng was about to leave the Commander's Mansion when suddenly, a guard came to report to Zhang Yanming and said, "Commander, General Wei of the New Emperor Sect at the gate is asking to see him with a large group of people. ”
Zhang Yanming was shocked when he heard this, and pretended to say loudly: "This group of new emperor sects that are still haunting come to this commander at this juncture, and I don't know what to do. If it weren't for them, he wouldn't have a grudge against Nie Feng, you go out to report, just say that the commander is not feeling well and will not see the guest for the time being. ”
The second brother hurriedly stopped and said, "Big brother, this is absolutely not good, there are too many members of the New Emperor Sect, we can't afford to provoke it!" Big brother, you'd better go out and deal with it, right? ”
"Okay, give the second child face, I'll go out to greet you." Pretending to be very angry, he said. In fact, he was also afraid of the New Emperor Sect in his heart, and he just wanted to establish some prestige in front of his subordinates.
As soon as Wei Maosheng saw Zhang Yanming come out, he said straight to the point: "Commander Zhang, don't talk about it, I have nothing to do but go to the Three Treasures Palace!" As soon as Wei Maosheng arrived, he gave a dismount and Zhang Yanming.
Zhang Yanming secretly scolded in his heart: "What an arrogant old man." But he said with a smiling face: "Mr. Wei, I don't know if you are always here, please sit down inside and talk, if there is anything I can help, I will go all out." ”
Wei Maosheng said as he walked into the commander's mansion: "Commander Zhang, my godbrother near the Rong family was plotted by Nie Feng a year ago, did you reveal it to Nie Feng?" ”
Zhang Yanming's heart trembled, and he hurriedly smiled and said, "Chief Wei, how dare I reveal the news of your New Emperor Sect to Nie Feng!" Someone must be to blame me. ”
Wei Maosheng said with a smile: "Commander Zhang, don't be afraid, I'm not here to mention old accounts with you, I came today on the orders of Taizun to mention people." ”
Zhang Yanming pretended to be confused and said: "General Wei, I don't know which brother in my commander's mansion Taizun likes, you just open your mouth, why do you need to come in person, I will send someone to your Xiangbei branch." ”
"Don't pretend to me, don't you know that Rong Lei and Nie Feng are the people we have to be Taizun?" Wei Maosheng said angrily.
Zhang Yanming glared at the second child beside him, and lied with a busy smile: "Mr. Wei, you don't know, I was poisoned by Rong Lei's master a year ago, and it hasn't been completely removed yet, so I will send someone to arrest them to detoxify myself, and after tomorrow night, my poison can be completely cleared, can you come back to mention someone then?" "Actually, Zhang Yanming has his plans, although he doesn't dare to offend the New Emperor Sect, it is impossible to hand over Rong Lei to them so easily.
Wei Maosheng glanced at Zhang Yanming, and said in a softened tone: "You just leave that old woman, I want her apprentice." ”
"Mr. Wei, don't you know, if I don't threaten the goddess with Rong Lei, she won't help me detoxify at all. Therefore, I also ask Mr. Wei to be accommodating for one day, and I will definitely give Rong Lei to my own hands when I arrive. Zhang Yanming continued to lie.
"Okay, I'll believe you for the time being, and I'll come back tomorrow night to ask for someone." In fact, Wei Maosheng also has his own abacus, trying not to be an enemy of Zhang Yanming; You don't have to spend money, you can overwhelm Zhang Yanming with momentum, why not, anyway, it's the same if you come to mention someone tomorrow night, forgive him and don't dare to play any tricks.
When Wei Maosheng was leaving, he reminded: "Commander Zhang, I can know that you arrested Rong Lei, and I believe that Nie Feng will definitely be able to find it, so please be careful of Nie Feng, if he rescues Rong Lei, then Taizun will blame you, and I won't be able to protect you." ”
Zhang Yanming pointed to the guards around him and said, "General Wei, don't worry, if Nie Feng dares to come, it will be difficult for me to let him fly with wings." ”
When Nie Feng heard this, he already had his own preliminary plan, he followed Wei Maosheng and them, and after knowing their whereabouts, he quickly rushed back to Fengyang City.
