Chapter 129: The Black Shop

After a day's journey, all the guards and guys, including Qin Dong, were a little tired, and most of them fell asleep after a hurried dinner, and Qin Dong also went to bed early after washing.

Sleeping until midnight, Qin Dong faintly felt that the courtyard of the carriage and horse shop was full of people, but he couldn't lift his strength when he thought about it, his head was also groggy, and his body was not at his own disposal at all, at this moment he finally knew that something was wrong, but at this time he was powerless, and fell asleep again in a grogginess.

Early the next morning, Qin Dong, who was lying on the bed, suddenly sat up from the bed, immediately jumped out of bed, hurriedly put on clothes and shoes, ran out of the room, and ran to the courtyard of the carriage and horse shop to take a look, it's over!

The courtyard was empty, all the horses, carriages and goods on the carriage were all gone, Qin Dong's heart was cold, remembering the suspicion of this carriage and horse shop when he just moved in yesterday evening, at that time he was a little worried and suspicious, but he didn't expect things to be so strict, this carriage and horse shop was obviously a black shop, no wonder there were no customers when he came yesterday evening.

It doesn't matter if the carriage, goods, and horses are lost, it doesn't matter much, as long as the person is okay, there is no problem, Qin Dong immediately looked around, the two guards who were standing guard at the door of the carriage and horse shop were lying on the ground at this time, Qin Dong leaned over and touched the strong artery on their necks, fortunately, the person was fine, he was drugged like him, otherwise he would not be unconscious at the door.

With the help of Qin Dong, he found more than a dozen guards on night duty in the courtyard, these people were lying on the ground horizontally, and some of them sat on the pillar and passed out, but they did not lose their weapons and money. Everyone else slept in their rooms, and some of the bunks slept twenty or thirty people, and everyone slept soundly. All drugged.

Qin Dong woke them all up, and Peteaus and Gebuus, who were woken up, were shocked when they knew that the goods, carriages, and horses were all gone, and Gebuus was furious: "Bastard, this is a black shop, let's go find the boss here, I want to see what he says!" ”

Qin Dong stopped and said, "Don't go, the owner and the guys of the carriage and horse shop are all gone!" ”

Gebuus was stunned. Then he sat on the ground decadently like a dead father, muttering to himself: "It's over, it's all over." That's more than half of my belongings! ”

Qin Dong also blamed himself for being too careless, but others have calculations, no matter how closely they are guarded, there will be loopholes, and sooner or later there will be problems. For example, this time everyone was drugged. Qin Dong checked in the kitchen of the carriage and horse shop, and found some food that he hadn't eaten last night, he asked his guards to go outside to find a wild dog, the wild dog didn't react at all after eating the food, and didn't fall into a coma until more than an hour later, which surprised Qin Dong and the others, it seems that someone carefully designed this time, in order to rob this batch of goods.

After doing these things. Qin Dong suddenly found out why he hadn't seen Su He all along, and he immediately found a few guards and asked, "Where did Su He go?" ”

The guard replied, "Your Excellency." We haven't seen Lord Suhe since we woke up! ”

Qin Dong's heart trembled, his face changed a little, he was not suspicious of Su He, but worried that something had happened to Su He, Su He was the first person to follow him, it was impossible to betray him for such some goods, he immediately called a few guards: "You guys go and find Su He, see where he is, come and see me as soon as you find it!" ”

"Yes, sir!"

After arranging for someone to find Su He, Qin Dong ordered someone to arrange breakfast, this time all of them let others make breakfast, things have to be done, and the whereabouts of the goods must be traced, but the stomach must also be filled, and the more anxious it is, the more chaotic it is. He brought Peteus, Gebuus, and Afald to discuss the next thing, and the goods were lost, although Qin Dong lost a lot of money, but it was not to the point where he could not bear it, the key was that he couldn't tolerate others calculating him so much under his nose, and for Gebuus, the loss of the goods made him almost bankrupt, so the goods must be recovered.

Qin Dong took a sip of water from the cup and said, "Uncle, Master Gebuus, what should we do now?" Please also ask my uncle and Master Gebuus to come up with a way, we can't let these goods be lost in vain, right? ”

Peteaus turned his head to look at Gebuus and said, "Master Gebuus, we are not familiar with the place here, and you are a frequent visitor here, you should be familiar with the situation here, I don't know if you have any ideas, or who do you think did it?" ”

Gebuus was originally very decadent, but now when he talked about the goods, he immediately came to his senses, he frowned and touched his beard and said: "In Dirmit City, I have not heard of any force that does such a thing, and all our goods and carriages are taken away overnight, there is nothing left, and their number will definitely not be small, but I don't have a clue about it at all!" I think we'd better report it to the City Lord's Mansion, if something like this happens, the City Lord's Mansion should send someone to investigate."

Qin Dong and Peteus glanced at each other, Peteus nodded and said: "It's okay, Master Gebuus is more familiar than us, please come forward to meet the city lord in this matter, and let Alfald accompany you, what can you let him do for you."

Gebuus stood up and said, "Okay, leave this matter to me, you wait for my news!" ”

Qin Dong also stood up and said, "Master Gebuus, please wait a minute, please go to the City Lord's Mansion to investigate who the owner of this carriage and horse shop is!" ”

"No problem!" Gebuus said yes and left, and Alfald got up and followed.

After Gebuus left, only Qin Dong and Peteus were left in the room, Peteus said: "If you can stun all of us, and make the goods, carriages, and horses disappear without a trace overnight, the power of these people must be not small, it seems that if we want to recover the goods, I'm afraid we will encounter big trouble!" ”

Qin Dong nodded and said: "Yes, even the drug they use is very special, not only colorless and tasteless, but also has the effect of prolonging the interval of seizures, I believe that this drug will definitely not be a nameless drug!" Moreover, it is impossible for such a large shipment to be transported out of the city overnight. It must still be in the city, you must know that it is basically impossible to open the city gate in the middle of the night, unless the other party is a person from the city lord's mansion. The gates of the city could only be opened by order of the consuls, and as soon as we had breakfast, we sent men to look for possible places in the city where the goods might be hidden, and there were more than 200 of us, and each of us searched in different sections, and we did not believe that we could not find the goods! ”

Peteus thought for a while and agreed with Qin Dong's opinion, "Now it's the only way to go!" ”

At this time, his subordinates came to report: "My lord, breakfast is ready." Do you want to bring it over or do you just go to the hall and eat it? ”

"Let's go eat in the hall!" The two got up and walked out of the room together.

After coming to the hall, the guards and the guys had already eaten around the table, and after seeing Qin Dong and the two of them arrive. They all stopped talking and talking.

Halfway through breakfast, another guard walked in and reported: "My lord, we have searched every corner of the carriage shop several times, but we have not found Lord Suhe!" ”

After listening to the report, Qin Dong's heart became even more worried. He immediately ordered: "You go find some people who have already eaten and go outside to find them." Be sure to find Suhe for me! ”

"Yes, sir!" The guard saluted, went out of the hall and found a few men who had finished breakfast.

At this time, Charlie Cao and his little apprentice walked in from outside, only to see Charlie Cao with a look of annoyance and said: "The evening festival is not guaranteed, the evening festival is not guaranteed, I have been walking the rivers and lakes for many years, but I didn't expect to be plotted and drugged here, but fortunately I didn't suffer, Mr. Peteaus." Poor Dao heard that your goods are all gone? ”

Peteus nodded: "It's Daoist Cao, please take a seat." That's right, we've lost all our goods, we've lost our wagons like horses, and we don't know what bad luck has happened lately! ”

After a while, the little boy brought food to Charlie Cao, and Charlie Cao sat at Qin Dong's table, and the little boy went to eat at the table with the other guards.

Qin Dong asked while eating, "What does the Dao Chief think about this matter?" ”

Charlie Cao glanced at Qin Dong and said with a smile: "It's hard to say about this matter, if the goods are still in the city, it shouldn't be difficult for you to retrieve the goods, but if the goods have already left the city, even if you find the place where the goods are hidden, it won't be easy to get them back!" ”

No one around spoke, although the guards and guys were eating breakfast, but no one made a sound, they were all listening to Qin Dong's words, Qin Dong listened to Charlie Cao's words, and asked, "What do you say?" ”

Charlie Cao took a sip of soup and said: "The goods are still in the city, which means that the forces of the rivers and lakes did it, oh, you are not called the rivers and lakes here, but the dark world, with the strength of your subordinates, it should not be a problem to take back this piece of goods, at most a few people will die, but if the goods have already left the city, it means that there are official forces involved, or that it is the official forces themselves, you think about it, can you open the city gate in the middle of the night without an official background?" If you want to get the goods back, you have to deal with the local government! ”

Qin Dong is most worried that the local officials are the masterminds behind this matter, if this is the case, the matter will be troublesome, if it is not the local officials, but other forces, it is better to say, with the elite strength of nearly two hundred people under his command, all the bulls, ghosts, snakes and gods must obediently hand over the goods, otherwise they will wait to be destroyed.

Qin Dong agrees with Charlie Cao's analysis, and the most important thing now is to determine whether the goods are still in the city, and to send someone to inquire whether the city gate was opened last night.

After thinking about it, Qin Dong sent people to find a few Germanic people, these people are Goths who came over with Afald, the Goths are very widely distributed throughout Europe, and many Goths are mercenaries, whether in the Western Roman Empire or the Eastern Roman Empire, in the mercenary world, Goths are very popular, these can be seen everywhere in Europe, it is best to send these Goths to inquire about the news, they will not arouse the suspicion of others.

Not long after those people went to inquire about the news, they saw a lot of movement outside, "Tap, tap, go find a healer, go quickly!" ”

There was chaos in the courtyard, Qin Dong and the others turned their heads to look outside, "What's going on?" ”

At this time, a guard ran in panting and saluted: "My lord, we found Lord Suhe in a dilapidated uninhabited house nearby, he was seriously injured and unconscious at that time, and we have carried him back!" ”

"Quick, take me there" Qin Dong didn't eat breakfast, and immediately walked out, and when he arrived in the courtyard, he saw four guards carrying a man covered in blood on a simple stretcher, who was not Su He?

Qin Dong touched Su He's strong artery, fortunately, there was a weak pulse, he found that Su He had more than a dozen knife wounds on his body, the wounds were very deep, the blood loss was very strict, and it was really a miracle that he hadn't died yet.

"Get the doctor!" Qin Dong shouted.

Charlie Cao leaned over and said, "Let the poor road take a look!" ”

Qin Dong turned his head and said, "Will you heal your injuries?" ”

"I know a little bit about it!"

Qin Dong immediately stepped aside and asked Charlie Cao to treat Su He, the little boy apprentice quickly ran to bring a medicine box, after Su He was carried to the room, Charlie Cao first gave him a pulse, and then ordered someone to take off Su He's clothes and check the external injury.

After the inspection, Charlie Cao exclaimed: "My lord, this general under your command is really fatal, if it weren't for his excellent health, I'm afraid that someone else would have died a long time ago, thirteen knives in the body, but none of them were fatal wounds, that is, excessive bleeding, since I arrived here, I saw that some doctors here used needles and threads to suture the wound, and the wound recovered very well, so I also studied and pondered a little bit, apprentice, clean the wound for him, do you have any wine?" ”

"Yes!" Qin Dong immediately asked people to bring wine, and the little boy used wine to clean Su He's wounds, and the stimulation of alcohol made Su He sometimes clean and sometimes fall asleep, and after cleaning all the wounds, Charlie Cao began to stitch Su He's wounds with needles and threads.

Charlie Cao's technique is very skillful, it took more than half an hour to sew up all the wounds on Su He's body, and after doing this, he washed his hands and said: "There are still some herbs here in Poor Dao, but there are not many, only the amount of one dose, it will be packed in a clay pot later, boiled over high heat first, then simmered for half an hour, three bowls of water are fried into a bowl of water, and the soup is given to him, this medicine is taken for two days, three times a day, this medicine alone is not enough, Poor Dao has to go out of the city to find some herbs to come back!" ”

Qin Dong hurriedly saluted: "Then thank you, I will send a few people to look for it with you, after all, there are many people to find it quickly!" ”

Charlie Cao nodded in agreement: "It's okay!" ”

Before leaving, Charlie Cao also ordered Su He to boil some gruel and feed him to eat, supplement some nutrients, and boil a little fish soup for him to feed, which will help the recovery of the wound. (To be continued......)
