Chapter 414: The Guide
"Oh, it's fine." Since the other party was not a robber who came to connect, Lin Lao Wu naturally would not tell the other party the reason why he was in this place at this time, so he smiled casually, thinking in his heart why the people on the mountain had not arrived at this time.
"Alright? Hehehe, who's there? The person didn't care, just smiled, and suddenly raised his hand and shouted in the distance behind Lin Lao Wu, as if he had found something.
"What?!" Lin Lao Wu was shocked in his heart, and he hurriedly looked back, and said in his heart - could it be that the robbers are hiding in the dark to monitor their side?
Looking back, the place where the man pointed was a small mound, the mound was overgrown with weeds and shrubs, and it was moving under the blowing of the mountain wind, Lin Lao Wu was a carpenter, not a hunter, whether someone was lying in ambush there with his eyesight could not tell.
"Where? Do you see who it is? Lin Lao Wu hurriedly asked the person in detail.
"Right there, it disappeared in a flash, and people didn't see it clearly, but they were wearing official clothes." The man pointed to the small mound again, preaching with little certainty.
"Wearing official clothes? , impossible, how can there be people from the official family in this place? Lin Lao Wu was suddenly confused, and his heart was nervous - yesterday, when everyone was discussing countermeasures, someone did propose to report to the official and ask the people of the government to intervene to save people, but this proposal was quickly vetoed, because first, Meilong Town is located in a remote area, nearly fifty miles away from the county seat, the so-called Tiangao Emperor is far away, and the influence of the local big families is much greater than that of the government. provoked the eyes, the king of heaven dared to fight), and recruiting that group of people not only couldn't help much. On the contrary, it may be to invite a group of vampires, and the robbers have already made it clear that they are seeking wealth rather than life, in this case, why bother to find people from the government and cause trouble in vain, in case the robbers misunderstand and it is not good for Tiantian, wouldn't it be self-defeating? So the final decision was to spend money to avoid the disaster and do it according to the conditions offered by the robbers. Since no one went to Qingyun City to report to the official, it is impossible for the officials of Qingyun City to appear here for no reason, of course. It's normal for officials to go to Meilong Town on errands, but it's not good in the morning, it's not good in the evening, why do you have to be here at this time? If the robbers find out and change their minds, won't that kill people?
"Uh, brother, how do you look nervous? I was shocked, didn't I do something that I couldn't let the official know? The man asked after looking Lin Lao Wu up and down again, and at the same time moved half a step back. A look of increased vigilance.
Seeing the other party's reaction like this, Lin Lao Wu couldn't smile bitterly, he looked like a bad guy anyway, right? Let the other party say this, as if he really did something as a prisoner.
"I said man. If there is something to do, you and I don't know each other, you don't care what I do. "Lin Lao Wu is not a good-tempered person, and his heart is not happy. If you are not in the mood to talk to irrelevant people, if you are mistaken by robbers that you are not alone, wouldn't it be a trouble?
If ordinary people heard Lin Lao Wu say this, it would probably be a secret scolding. blamed himself for being nosy, and then pulled his feet and left, but this person was not angry, haha, he smiled, looked around again, and took half a step forward, "Brother, don't be angry, look at you like this, are you waiting for someone?" ”
"Uh, what do you mean?" Lin Lao Wu was stunned when he heard this, and his suspicion suddenly rose - for no reason, why would he ask himself such a question? Isn't this person a real Orion? Subconsciously taking a step back, he distanced himself from the other party, and at the same time blocked the wooden box on the ground behind him. "Hehe, don't be nervous, I'll just ask, are you from Meilong Town, are you here to pick up a child named Tiantian?" The man shrugged, spread his hands to show that he had no ill intentions, and continued to ask.
"Yes, I'm here to pick up Tiantian, are you?" Lin Lao Wu's heart was shocked, and he finally guessed the true identity of the other party, the look of vigilance in his eyes was even worse, the muscles of his whole body were tense, and he was ready to do it at any time.
"Hehe, it seems that I guessed correctly, okay, since I'm here to pick up people, then come with me." The man grinned, gave an order, turned around and walked in the direction he came from, took two steps, and saw that Lin Lao Wu was still standing there stupidly, and urged again.
To keep up or not to follow?
Lin Lao Wu muttered in his heart - the other party's purpose is obvious, if there is an ambush on his side, he will either have to jump out and arrest people now, or follow them secretly, or give up the original plan, stay where he is, and jump out to arrest people? The other party is just a little minions leading the way, and it is useless to catch it, but it will be unfavorable to Tiantian; Secretly tracking, the other party will definitely prevent this hand if he uses this trick, and it will be easy to be discovered; Abandoning the original plan? That's not to mention. Therefore, unless there is a first-class master here who is strong in martial arts, can fly eaves and walk walls, and is good at stealth tracking, don't want to make the kidnappers suffer, but don't talk about Qingyun City, even if there are a few in the entire Yuzhou? This shows how cunning this gang of robbers on the mountain is, and if they follow each other, God knows what kind of danger they will have.
But now that it's come to this, can I not go? Anyway, I finally met with the group of people who tied up Tiantian now, if I gave up the opportunity because I was afraid of danger, how would I explain to Qiu Ju when I went back?
Thinking of this, Lin Lao Wuyi gritted his teeth, picked up the wooden box on the ground and quickly followed--is it a blessing or a curse, it is a disaster that can't be avoided, it's a big deal to throw more than 100 catties there!
Turning around, seeing Lin Lao Wu follow, the man stretched out his right thumb to Lin Lao Wu and made a 'good man, brave enough' gesture, and then continued to move forward, both of them stopped talking, just walked with their heads bored, so walked for about a pillar of incense, the terrain on both sides of the road became more and more complicated, that person stopped, looked back at the back, stuffed the little finger of his right hand into his mouth, one long, two short and three sharp whistles pierced through the empty mountain forest.
Soon after the whistle sounded, there was also a whistle in the mountains and forests, two long and one short, and the whistle responded to each other, as if they were asking a question.
It's so professional
Lin Lao Wu couldn't help but sigh in his heart, a group of bandits actually know how to use whistles to transmit news, this must be the experience accumulated after how many years of doing this? (To be continued......)
