Chapter 676: One Arrow Reports that there are mineral crystals in the sinkhole
Lecheng, about 400 miles away from Wencheng, is easy for Yu Pu, plus rushing at night, it is a pedestrian without taboo, speeding all the way.
When he arrived in Lecheng, the sky was still gray and black, before dawn, and the city gate had not yet opened, Yu Pu simply crossed the city and sat down in a remote corner of the city, closing his eyes and pranayama.
Yu Pu made it clear that he would go to Lecheng, there are several reasons, one is that he made it clear, then the Que family may focus on themselves, and ignore Uncle Tang, and the next thing is to lead to this Lecheng, of course, last night's trouble, under normal circumstances, they should come to Lecheng with the battle, and Lecheng, I once heard them say that the Xin family here is a hedging contradiction with his Que family, therefore, if they want to come, it is impossible to be a few people, maybe it is possible to pour out of the nest, in this way, the Tang boss is more secure, as for what will happen in the future, Yu Pu does not dare to imagine, now this pass will go over first。
Yu Pu didn't think about whether he was doing the right thing or not, he did it recklessly, what would happen in the future, he thought about it as carefully as possible, but what the consequences were, it was fate.
Days, gradually became clear, in Lecheng, there were more and more people, routine, Yu Pu came to the grocery store, bought a map of Lecheng City, and took a cursory look, it was still early, Yu Pu simply came to Lezheng Street, this street is also the commercial street, choose an inn called "Lezhengju", check in.
After registering, Yu Pu did not enter the room, but in the living room of Le Zhengju, took out a pen and paper, wrote a note, then rolled it up, took out a piece of bamboo tip of the purple bamboo pill tube, cut it, put the paper note in, and then walked out of Le Zhengju, walked towards the end of Le Zheng Street, from the end of Le Zheng Street to "Le Yu Street" and then to the end, it is a big courtyard, the Xin family compound, right here.
Yu Pu put the purple bamboo roll and a signal fireworks set on a blank arrow, just under the wall of the Xin family's courtyard, a peep sweep, when no one, take out the red roar, take the arrow, a fly up, jumped into the air, hey, the arrow is aimed at the pillar of a big house shootout, the signal flare fireworks are everywhere, shoot out dazzling fireworks, all the way to the whistle, pop, is inserted on the pillar, suddenly, there are people who see, hear, strange screams, for a time the gong rang out of the people, and rushed to the place where the arrows were shot.
"What's going on, what's going on?" an old man in his fifties and nearly sixty put on his coat and ran out of his east wing.
"Second master, someone is shooting an arrow on the pillar of the conference room" A palace guard who was about to run ran over from the side.
"Oh, who is it, do you see it?"
"Nope"
"Take me to see it"
In front of the gate of the conference room, there have been dozens of Xin family's guards and house patrols, the second master looked up, only to see an arrow shot at the right pillar of the two pillars, the arrow has been submerged in the column, the fireworks burned part of the bamboo tube and the arrow shaft, the second master waved his hand, extinguished the spark on the arrow shaft, because the position of the arrow shot was slightly higher than the height of the person, the second master said to the guard who came with him: "Take the arrow down and give it to me"
The city guard went up one by one, held the arrow and pulled it out, and then the person turned over and landed, and then handed the arrow to the second master.
The second master took the arrow, he saw that the arrow was tied with a purple bamboo tube, so he took it down, although the bamboo tube burned some surface, but the purple bamboo is difficult to burn, the inside is still good, lifted the tube cover, poured out a roll of paper from the inside, the second master opened a look, only to see that it was written: "The Que family is gathering a large number of elite soldiers, ready to enter Lecheng"
When the second master saw the content, he hurriedly said to the onlookers: "Quick, go and invite the third master and a few more offerings to come to the conference room......
"Yes," the guards replied and dispersed.
The second old man also walked into the conference room, sat down in the room, took the note, thought hard, and after a while, the door flashed, and an old man of fifty-one and twelve came in, dressed in a white silk robe, playing with three steel balls in his hand, gray hair, but his spirit was unusually strong.
"Second brother, what's the matter? I heard that there are signal fireworks in our house, what arrows, what notes, what's going on?"
"I don't know, the third child, come and take a look at the contents of the arrow"
"What's on the arrow?" The third master hurriedly walked over and picked up the note in front of the second master.
"This should remind us, second brother......"
"I know this, but the question is who reminded us, what is the purpose of his reminder? Is the content on the paper note true, and what is the Que family gathering elite soldiers for?"
At this moment, as soon as the door of the conference room opened, five more people came in, the first three were all forty years old on a business trip, and the last two were about the same age as the second master.
As soon as the second master saw the five people coming in, he raised his hand and said, "It's just right that you guys came, come and have a look."
The five of them sat down, took the note, and the second master also expressed his doubts.
The eldest of the five people frowned, and said: "Second master, we should deal with this matter in this way, first, immediately send spies, with harriers, to Wenle official road, if this matter is true, they will definitely ride a carriage to take the official road, and the spies will definitely find out; second, immediately gather the elite guards, increase the guarding force of the 'sinkhole', our five worshippers, and the seven fine guards, all have to go to the 'sinkhole'; third, ambush the archers on the road outside the sinkhole......"
"What about our Xin Mansion?"
"Xin Fu don't worry, the Langque family will not attack the city, after all, there are Lecheng elite guards here, so if they want to come, there should be only one destination, that is, the sinkhole, but they can't be completely unguarded, the spies who greeted them on the official road are just to find out if they are coming towards Lecheng or going to the sinkhole......"
"You say, who shot this arrow, and what is the purpose of his message?" the second master asked.
"This doesn't matter anymore, what matters is what is on the note," the longest offering responded.
The second master thought for a while: "Well, Hu Xianfeng makes sense, okay, then do it like this......"
Yu Pu came back from the courtyard wall of the Xin family, walked and paced, and saw that there was a "Lecheng Service Store" on Le Yu Street, so he went in and bought a few sets of coats, underwear and underwear, and a few pairs of fast boots, and returned to Le Zhengju, and now he is waiting for the people of the Que family to come.
Entering his room, Yu Pu sat on the bed, and the peep was opened, and as soon as the peep was opened, a conversation voice had already entered the ears, which was very clear, and it should be the resident next door.
"Lao Dong, is it true what you said about the Tiankengeng?"
"Yes, this sinkhole is located in the northeast of Lecheng, where there is a plain pasture......"
"Can you tell us more about ......?"
"Oh, this sinkhole, it is said that the stone was completed hundreds of years ago, but the cave is deep, it is not as deep as the bottom, so there have always been adventurous people there, but there are very few people who come back, according to the brief description of the people who came back, the cave is intricate, and the 'compass' does not work, it is very easy to get lost, and it will lead people to have an illusion, it is difficult to return to the original way, it is extremely dangerous, but Rao is so, the adventurous people, those who have some cultivation, are still flocking to it, and they have gone to ......"
"Just ten years ago, a couple named Hu Zhi and Hu Cheng returned to the ground from the sinkhole, and they brought out a major news from the sinkhole so far."
"Isn't it the Heavenly Pit Crystal?"
"Yes, it is the Tiankeng Mineral Crystal, the two Hu brothers brought out the Tiankeng Mineral Crystal is not much, only seven, but these seven pieces are a sensation, so the Xin family, the first family of Lecheng, paid the Hu brothers, so that the two of them became the worship of the Xin family, and the Xin family got the support of the Lecheng City Lord, and the location of this Tiankeng has become the guard of Lecheng, with heavy troops, and the checkpoints are closed, and ordinary people generally can't enter the vicinity of the Tiankeng......"
"Now let's talk about the Que family in Wencheng, this Wencheng Que family, is the first family in Wencheng, they have several hunting teams, it is said that the ancestor of the Que family still has one person, who is already a Venerable cultivator, and there is also a guarantee team, they also heard about the sinkhole out of the mineral crystal, so they have been mobilizing, spying, investigation, and even with the Xin family has several battles, we all know that the location of the sinkhole does not belong to Wencheng, nor does it belong to Lecheng, that is almost a three-point character position with the two cities, but it is between the two cities, it is said that under the sinkhole, or a mountain cave, I estimate that it is an underground extension of the foot of Dai Yao Mountain, so, The battle for this place is not a matter of border city land, the city lord of Wencheng and the city lord of Lecheng can't come forward, so the two big families will collide first......"
"Old Dong, didn't you just say that the city lord of Dongcheng supported the Xin family, why did he retreat here again?"
"This is a matter at the political level, to be able to incorporate the sinkhole into Lecheng, of course, is what the city lord of Lecheng thinks, but the Que family of Wencheng came forward, and the city lord of Wencheng did not come forward, so the city lord of Lecheng will not be able to face it head-on, because, as soon as the city lord moves, the city lord of Wencheng will also move, at that time, it caused the matter of the two cities of Wenle, and the dispute between the two cities is always greater than the dispute between the two cities, you understand......"
"Oh, that's the case, Lao Dong, you go on......"
"yes, yes, what do we do next?"
"Let's do this, first go to Dai Yao Mountain, I brought a navigation telescope, we first learned about the Xin family's soldiers through the telescope, and then planned, now we have to complete the preparations, wind lanterns, hunting equipment, shovels, chisels, by the way, we also have to buy some antidote pills, there is a high probability of poisonous gas or something, Bigu Dan, Chuanyin Jade and so on"
"Well, we'll do it right away."
"Okay, let's go today......"
When Yu Pu heard this, he was stunned, there is still a sinkhole in this Lecheng, he hurriedly took out the map and looked up Dai Yao Mountain, sure enough, in the extended plain of Dai Yao Mountain, there is a black dot drawn, marked with the word sinkhole.
"It turns out that the Que family still has a venerable and guaranteed team, hehe, but this Tiankeng incident, their plans have been disrupted a little, this Tiankeng is the place where the two families of Que and Xin are disputed, if the Que family is led by themselves, towards Lecheng, and he just reminded the Xin family, then the Xin family is very likely to think that his Que family is heading for the sinkhole, and must gather people to go to the sinkhole, in this case, the two families may not fight in Lecheng, but if the Wencheng Que family arrives in Lecheng and learns that they are going to the sinkhole, will they also turn to the sinkhole? Well, of course I will go, and I will definitely go, and at that time, the people and horses of the Xin family were also in the sinkhole, so let's end it in the sinkhole, well, then it's decided, go to the sinkhole by yourself......"
