Chapter 22: The Spy
Rewind time half an hour ago
It was raining heavily outside the window, and Shirou and his brother Shi Chen did not go to Qingshan Town as usual, both of them wanted to successfully refine their spiritual energy as soon as possible to become a veritable monk, so the two of them nested in their rooms and practiced hard.
Through Zhu Xinghan's on-demand, Shilang and Shichen have made leapfrog progress in refining spiritual power, and at this moment, the two brothers have successfully grabbed a grain of glass made of heavenly spiritual qi and dragged it in front of them, almost being able to enter the body for refining.
However, at this moment, a sharp "help!! startled Shichen and Shirou, and the aura that was about to be successfully dragged into the body was also defeated because of this trembling.
However, before the two brothers could get angry, a familiar figure flashed by the window, this was Zhu Xinghan.
The two brothers glanced at each other, and read a sentence from each other's eyes: Go and see!
Shi Chen and Shilang's speed naturally couldn't be as fast as Zhu Xinghan, but the distance between Lu Mansion and the town gate was not far away, so when the two brothers arrived panting, they happened to see Lu Huang rushing into the rain curtain.
Before the two brothers could figure out what was going on, Shilang was pulled aside by Zhu Xinghan, and after some explanation, Shilang took the ring and a precious talisman handed by Zhu Xinghan, and rode a horse to chase in the direction where Lu Huang left.
Lu Huang's speed is naturally faster than that of horses, so Shilang can be said to have never seen Lu Huang's shadow from beginning to end, but after all, this is the first time that Zhu Xinghan has begged him to help him do something, and Shilang naturally can't go back like this.
Not knowing what to do, Shirou simply lets the horses decide where they want to go, what if the blind cat runs into a dead mouse?
Walking all the way, the corporal has no idea where he is under the rain curtain in the sky.
Suddenly, the sound of chaotic horses' hooves came from far and near, which shocked Shirou's heart, and he could be regarded as seeing a living person!
Just as Shirou was about to find a voice to say hello, a somewhat familiar voice came into Shirou's ears.
"Give the old lady a little bit of cleverness for a while, who wants to get out of the basket, the old lady must pull out his skin!
"Yes!"
After hearing this voice, Shirou thought for a long time and didn't remember what he had heard there, so he simply stopped his horse and waited for the other party to leave, but Shirou only heard his voice and did not see him, and the other party did not even notice Shirou's existence because of the cover of the rain curtain.
In this way, Shirou spun around in the rain for a few more minutes.
Suddenly, the insects and frogs that were originally lively in the rain disappeared in an instant, and were replaced by a strong killing machine, and Shirou immediately knew that something was wrong!
The best thing to do is to get out of this place as soon as possible!
"Stop, whose subordinate are you, why have I never seen you?
With the sound of a scolding voice, Shirou could clearly feel a faint pain in the vital parts of his body, which was obviously someone aiming at his vital point, if he didn't answer well, he was afraid that he would die here today.
What should I do? What should I do? What should I do? Password? Wait, could it be a Qingshan thief? Take a gamble!
"Big brothers, take it slowly, I am Captain Li Chen's subordinate, and the code is: Qingshan will last forever. ”
"Li Chen's dead ghost person? Why haven't I seen you before? Forget it, since the code is right, it must be my own person.
The second boss gave an order, all the brothers went to attack Qingshan Town, you know the rules on the mountain, hurry up and keep up with the team, otherwise you know the consequences. ”
"Yes, yes, I understand, I understand!"
At this time, Shilang breathed a sigh of relief, if it wasn't for the fact that the two brothers almost joined the Qingshan Bandit, they wouldn't have known the code of the Qingshan Bandit, let alone that there was such a person as Li Chen, then today would be more than lucky, but this Qingshan Thief wants to attack Qingshan Town, and he has to find a way to inform Xing Han!
While thinking of a way to get out, he followed the Qingshan thief forward, relying on the rain curtain, Shirou's speed was getting slower and slower, but Shirou didn't dare to do too much, and the ghost knew how many people were behind him.
In this way, Shirou followed the large army for more than five minutes, and the bandits who kept coming out of the rain curtain behind him ruined Shirou's plan to get out of the rain screen several times.
Just when Shirou was extremely anxious in his heart, he suddenly covered his mouth from behind him, and before he could struggle, he was pulled off the horse.
"Shhh
After all, Zhu Xinghan was a fourth-level cultivator of the Qi Rank, and because of his natural and sensitive inspiration, he could pass by the Qingshan Thieves like an unpredictable prophet every time in the rain curtain.
After the two of them walked like this for five minutes, Zhu Xinghan finally stopped
"I found you, how did you get into the Qingshan Thieves' team? Come, I'll carry you away, and you tell me the cause and effect on the way. ”
"Here's the thing........ Until you get me out, that's how it happened. ”
"I see, I see, as I thought, Shirou, you have made a great contribution this time! Although you are in danger this time, you have saved at least half of Qingshan Town!
I thought something was wrong with Mother Wu before, but I couldn't say what was wrong there, and now I finally know!
Mother Wu made two fatal mistakes, the first was that she deliberately revealed that the Qingshan Thieves were about to attack Qingshan Town in order to prevent me from rushing to Lu Huang's aid.
Originally, it wasn't a big deal, and it was only a few minutes before and after, but she didn't know about me sending you out to send a talisman to Brother Lu.
Even though Mother Wu's words could be fooled with various explanations, she said: On my way back, I saw many Qingshan thieves, and the direction they were traveling should be this Qingshan Town.
According to the time you met Wu's mother, the Qingshan thieves should not have acted at that time.
In fact, it convinced me that Mother Wu was a spy or a member of the Qingshan Thieves, or the second fatal mistake made by Mother Wu, that is, the property that Mother Wu brought back!
If Mother Wu was not a spy of the Qingshan thieves, the galloping horses of more than ten people, the sound of the carriage loaded with property, and the loud voice of Mother Wu were not discovered and stopped by the Qingshan thieves?
After all, the place where you were stopped is not far from the road that Wu's mother walked, unless the Qingshan thieves are all deaf and blind, even if Wu's mother can get out of the way, those belongings will not be able to be brought back!
So I'm pretty sure that Mother Wu is a spy sent by the Qingshan Thieves!"
In Shilang's shock and Zhu Xinghan's reasoning, the town wall of Qingshan Town was already close in front of him, and Zhu Xinghan just jumped to the top of the wall.
At the moment when Zhu Xinghan boarded the city wall, more than a dozen bows and crossbows were all aimed at Zhu Xinghan, and they were not put down until they saw the faces of the people who came.
"Yasuo-sama, your friend has been rescued?"
"Yes, have you informed Steward Cheng?"
"Steward Cheng has been notified, and Steward Cheng has gone to the gate of the town with a large army of five hundred people. ”
"Okay, you continue to strengthen your vigilance, the Qingshan Thieves estimate that they will arrive here in twenty minutes at most, pay attention to safety!"
After Zhu Xinghan finished speaking, he jumped off the town wall again with Shirou and headed towards the town gate.
