Finally showed up.

During the long waiting period, the three of them talked about the person who fled into the barracks, in fact, there were some speculations - the man was thin, agile and sensitive, and he walked on the ground when he walked on the wall, but he was amazing, but he was chased, but he didn't want to fight back, and he fled, obviously not confident in his ability to meet the enemy head-on, so he was like this.

The three of them, Luo Fugui and the little carpenter have seen the tiger, and the little carpenter has also heard the voice of Uncle Qiming at Wu Banxian's house, but Qu Menghu has not seen any of them, but he is the one who knows the most about the person last night.

After some communication, the three of them felt that that person could not be a tiger, nor did he look like Uncle Qiming.

In this way, it should be a third person, but it is inseparable from Uncle Qiming.

This kind of layout blackmail, in fact, is quite a thing, most people despise it, and they don't like to do it, presumably Uncle Qiming is the same, but he is shy in his pocket, needs to spend, and has to do it, so that person is very likely to be another apprentice of Uncle Qiming.

But in any case, the appearance of the tiger also means that it is Uncle Qiming and his party who are involved in this matter.

And if that's the case, finding them will be able to find out the whereabouts of the little carpenter master.

So when he saw the tiger, the little carpenter felt a burst of ecstasy.

But he couldn't move.

This is in the militia station, the place of the barracks, and the soldiers in it are all carrying guns, and if they are really going to make trouble, no one can escape.

What to do? Only waiting, waiting patiently, like a snake in the jungle, waiting for its prey.

The tiger forced into the barracks and never came out again.

waited until nightfall, and from the northwest gate of the barracks, two figures appeared.

One is a tiger, and the other is a thin man who used a stone last night to test whether the roof burden was filled with the ocean.

The two men left the barracks and searched around very cautiously before leaving.

They went straight east and went up Balipo.

At first, the two of them were very cautious, looking behind them from time to time, but later, they didn't worry anymore, walked briskly, and hurried away.

But they didn't know that behind them, there were three people, who were following from a distance.

Keeping an eye on people, the little carpenter won't, Qu Menghu is not familiar with it, and Luo Fugui is an expert in the industry, he didn't follow closely, because whether it is a tiger or another guy, he knows at a glance that it is a powerful character, if they find out, it must be a startling snake - in terms of head-to-head confrontation, the three of them are not afraid, the only headache is that if the two run separately, it will be really difficult to chase for a while.

So Luo Fugui followed for a while, but stopped, and then took out a gadget from his arms.

It's a small bamboo cage, a bit like a cricket cage, and when it is opened, out of it crawls out half a little thumb-sized bug, which is a bit like a wasp, but it is red, and the wings are a little wilted, which gives people a very strange feeling.

Luo Fugui muttered a few words in Miao language, and then blew on it, and the wasp insect that was originally wilting suddenly raised its head, a pair of compound eyes glowed, and then flapped its wings and flew forward.

With this thing, the three trackers slowed down and could keep their distance.

The little carpenter looked at the thing a little strange, and asked Luo Fugui: "Brother Luo, what are you?" ”

Luo Fugui was also frank and didn't hide it: "Red Peak Gu." ”

Yes?

The little carpenter looked confused when he heard this, but Qu Menghu next to him reacted.

He was originally the heir of a famous family in eastern Sichuan, he had received a good education and training since he was a child, and later traveled everywhere and was well-informed, so he asked directly: "Boss Luo, are you a Gu cultivator in Miaojiang?" ”

Hearing this, the little carpenter was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously looked at Luo Fugui.

Gu raisers, if they were elsewhere, maybe ordinary people would be at a loss, but in this southwestern place, from the toothless elderly to the bare-bottomed children, everyone knows about it, and no one knows that this group of Gu raisers who can play with snakes, insects, rats and ants in applause have appeared in countless legends in the mouths of the countryside, which is simply thunderous.

Since Luo Fugui opened his mouth, he was naturally prepared, he smiled calmly, and said yes, I am the Gu cultivator, the Qingshui River is in the same vein, and the descendant of Dunzhai Miao Gu.

After saying this, he said with a smile: "What, are you afraid?" ”

Qu Menghu laughed and said indifferently: "What are you afraid of, I am the same as your boss Luo, and it is the two little piglets in front of me that I should be afraid of." ”

The little carpenter also hurriedly said: "Yes, yes, Brother Luo is my savior, how can I be afraid?" ”

Hearing the two of them take a stand, Luo Fugui, who was originally a little guarded, breathed a sigh of relief and said to them: "I know that there are many rumors and criticisms about Gu cultivators in the outside world, in fact, we are also normal people, and we also have to eat, drink, and sleep, not nest in the wormhole all day long, grinding fangs, ready to harm people." ”

Qu Menghu smiled, and said Don't be careful, I'm just a little strange, it stands to reason that if you raise Gu people, there are more women, Boss Luo, you are powerful and domineering, and you are actually too, which really surprised me.

His tone was funny and natural, Luo Fugui couldn't help laughing, saying that this matter is not divided into men and women.

In a few words, everyone dissolved the knot in their hearts and continued to move forward.

This time, Luo Fugui controlled the rhythm of the march, he sometimes stopped, sometimes walked, sometimes squatted down, carefully checked the soil and weeds under his feet, and sometimes urged everyone to move forward quickly, not to stay too long.

In this way, they stopped and walked for almost two hours, and in the second half of the night, several people came to the riverside.

There was a raft by the river, and there was a man standing with an oil lamp.

The little carpenter saw Tiger and another man get on the raft and head downstream.

Although the Qianzhou River cannot be compared with those turbulent rivers, there are several bays, the water flow is strange, and there are many dangerous shoals, one is not careful, it is very likely to overturn directly, but the person who responded to the tiger forcing them is obviously a water expert, supported by a penny, but it is moving fast in the river, such as speeding on flat ground.

Seeing the three of them go on a raft, Qu Menghu was a little anxious and asked, "Do you want to leave people behind?" ”

They were two or three hundred meters away from the raft, and if they ran wildly, they actually had a chance to reach each other.

Merely......

Luo Fugui shook his head and said: "Fighting in the water, there are too many accidents, it is easy for people to escape, if they get away with someone, even if they catch one, they will be blind, and I feel that the person who came to pick them up is a master, and it is difficult to deal with - this matter is not in a hurry, with my Hongfeng Gu staring, within twenty miles, I can find it." ”

Qu Menghu was a little surprised, saying so powerful?

Luo Fugui said confidently: "Of course." ”

Since Luo Fugui was sure that he would be able to find the other party, Qu Menghu was not in a hurry, he looked back and forth, and then asked the little carpenter: "Do you know where the downstream is?" ”

The little carpenter worked for a period of time in Sandaokan, chatting with people on weekdays, and had some understanding of the geography of the mountains and rivers here, and said: "Go downstream, they are Qixingyan, Wulipai and Tiezhai Slope, and then go down, you will go out of the territory of Qiancheng......"

"Tiezhai Slope?"

Qu Menghu smiled and said that he went around and around, and finally came back here - go, the soldiers sent to Tiezhai Slope.

The three of them walked downstream along the riverbank, because the road was really not easy to walk, and the road was difficult, almost early in the morning, at dawn, they arrived near the Tiezhai Slope, and then, under a big banyan tree, they found the raft.

Sure enough, Hu Qiang and the others did come to Tiezhai Slope.

After confirming that this raft was the one that Hu Qi and the others sailed at night, Luo Fugui climbed up to the treetop of the big banyan tree like a monkey, whistling softly in his mouth, and after a while, the slightly reddened wasp insect flew over, "buzzed" overhead, and then flew towards the slope not far away.

Luo Fugui left the river with the little carpenter and Qu Menghu, crossed a large rice field, and walked towards the mountain.

After walking for a while, he stopped, rummaged through the grass, and found a stone tablet.

The stele is engraved with eight words - "Xu Fu's hometown, the living do not enter".

Seeing this, Luo Fugui couldn't help but take a deep breath and said to the two people next to him: "Oops, I'm in trouble." ”

Qu Menghu asked, "What's the matter, I lost it?" ”

Luo Fugui shook his head, and said that he didn't lose it, but he ran into something that was piercing - in front of him was Longwu Village, I don't know if you have heard of it? The people in this village, produced the famous light warriors in the Xiangxi Pole Army, the historical origin here is very ancient, it is said that the ancestral home of Xu Fu, a generous scholar of the Qin Dynasty, is here, when Xu Fu went to sea, looking for the elixir, brought a lot of people from here, I heard that the ninjutsu of the Little Oriental was developed from here......

The little carpenter hadn't heard of this, and his face was confused, while Qu Menghu sneered, saying that people here recognize relatives indiscriminately and brag about their ancestors' kung fu, which is simply terrible, and the world knows that Xu Fu is a native of Qi during the Warring States Period - Qi State, speaking of which, it should be the area of Shandong now, 108,000 miles away from here.

He didn't believe this, but Luo Fugui said seriously: "The legend is not necessarily true, but Longwu Village in Tiezhai Slope, I know, these people were used as pole soldiers in the former Qing Dynasty, and later when the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom was disturbed, many people joined the Hunan army and shined; Although it is now the Republic of China, they are all nested in the mountains, but the ferocity is very great, and I heard that many bandits on Xiangxi Road are all out of Longwu Village. ”

Qu Menghu's face became serious, and he asked, "Those few people are in Longwu Village now?" ”

Luo Fugui nodded and said yes.
