Chapter 654: Small Town Crisis

Loushan Pass, Fenglei Town.

Qin Fei took more than a dozen guards, drove two flatbed trucks covered with canvas, disguised as a wholesale merchant from the north, and walked cautiously to the town.

"Dashuai, this place is only more than ten miles away from Loushan Pass, it's too dangerous for us to have such a few people, in case the army of the imperial court passes by and intercepts us, it will be over!"

Qin Fei took a big hat and said in a low voice to Xu Rui, who was dressed as a long-term worker on the side.

Xu Rui said in a low voice: "The matter is urgent, the more General Liu stays here, the more dangerous it will be, don't worry, I have ordered the whole army of the Apocalypse Guard to stand by, once there is a real emergency, reinforcements will be sent immediately." ”

Qin Fei shook his head helplessly: "That's what I said, but I just don't have a solid heart, you are our backbone, there must be no accidents, if you want to leave the adult here, he will definitely be able to keep the handsome and thoughtful." ”

Xu Rui sighed and said: "I want to leave and take the shadow maid to relax, the shadow maid has worked hard for so many years, it is rare to be able to relax for a few days, and if you want to leave, I owe him too much, I really can't bear to refuse."

What's more, I am a national candidate, I can't rely on others when something happens, and you don't have to worry too much, we can deal with this small scene ourselves. ”

As he spoke, everyone had already followed Old Butler Liu to the outside of the town, and the scout who went to explore the way was an old scout, and this time he also dressed up as a long-term worker and went around the town first.

"I'm back."

The scout pretended to be casual and leaned against the cart, fanning the wind with his hat.

Qin Fei lowered his voice and asked, "What's the situation inside?" ”

The scout said: "There is no abnormal movement, and no trace of the enemy has been found, but the mark said by the old housekeeper Liu was found outside the door of the inn, and Governor Liu should be in no danger, but the identity of Governor Liu was exposed, so I did not rush to contact him." ”

"Well done."

Qin Fei nodded, and quietly leaned into Xu Rui's ear to repeat the words of the scout.

Xu Rui was relieved when he heard this, and said in a deep voice: "Let's go, enter the city!" ”

Hearing this, Qin Fei hurriedly greeted him, and the guards immediately took action to escort Xu Rui to the town.

In recent years, as Galaxy Group has created huge business interests, other businessmen have been eager to try, and business as a whole has flourished in Dawei, and many new business names have appeared in various places.

Although Fenglei Town is not big, after all, it is one of the gateways to and from the capital with its back to Loushan Pass, and many merchants who plan to enter and exit Changxing City to do business will choose to rest here, so the town's market is a lively scene.

The crowd pretended to be merchants in the store, and walked through the noisy market towards the inn.

Looking at the lively scene around him, Qin Fei's heart gradually relaxed, and he said to the scouts around him: "Fortunately, it seems that they are all traders, and the army of the imperial court should not have controlled this place yet." ”

The scout nodded: "I've watched a few places nearby, everything is normal, there should be no problem." ”

Xu Rui pushed the cart and walked behind the two, on the surface he seemed to be doing the heaviest work, but in fact he was surrounded by the whole team in the middle, if someone released a cold arrow, the guards around him would use their bodies to help him block it.

After a while, everyone came to the vicinity of the inn, the signboard that read "Kexian Ju" was hung high, and the two Xiao Si were pulling the merchants from south to north at the door.

Steward Liu quietly came to Xu Rui's side and said: "Young master, the master is in the inn, he is dressed as an old man who went to Beijing to see a doctor, and the shopkeeper is pitiful, and he opened a small house next to the firewood room, and that place is not very attractive." ”

"It's hard for General Liu."

Thinking that Liu Yi had to suffer such grievances at his age, Xu Rui felt very uncomfortable.

He looked left and right, and saw that Xiao Si, who was soliciting customers, had noticed a few of them, and walked towards this side with a smile, as if he was planning to negotiate a good deal.

Xu Rui was about to give Qin Fei a look and ask him to beckon everyone to enter the inn in the name of staying in the inn, when at this moment, his afterglow suddenly caught a glimpse of the signboard hanging outside the inn, and he couldn't help but be slightly stunned.

Steward Liu noticed Xu Rui's expression and said inexplicably, "What's wrong with the young master?" ”

Xu Rui came back to his senses, pointed to the signboard and said, "When you came, was that what the signboard wrote?" ”

Steward Liu looked at the signboard, only to see that it read: "Luxu wine, five texts and one bucket", and said blankly: "Yes, this is what was written when I and the old man and I came here yesterday, is there anything wrong?" ”

Xu Rui's face changed when he heard this, and he hurriedly looked at the market behind him, as if he had confirmed something, and his eyes sank again.

"Qin Fei, let's go!"

Xu Rui didn't know what he thought, and whispered to Qin Fei.

Qin Fei's heart sank when he saw his expression, and he said loudly: "It's still early, it's better to go to the market to sell some leather goods and then stay in the store, brothers, cheer up, finish the work and buy wine for you to drink!" ”

This is a code that everyone agreed on in advance, which means a quick retreat.

Everyone was a little apprehensive when they heard the code, but they still quietly shouted in unison and pushed the cart back.

Xiao Er, who was about to walk in front of everyone, frowned when he saw this scene and stopped.

"Young master, we're almost there, what's going on?"

Steward Liu didn't know why, so he took Xu Rui's hand and asked in a low voice.

Xu Rui's face was gloomy, and he grabbed Steward Liu's hand and pressed it down, Steward Liu suddenly felt weak, and was dragged forward by Xu Rui like a dead pig.

"Young Master, ...... you"

Steward Liu's eyes widened and he looked at Xu Rui in shock.

Xu Rui said coldly: "Why did you betray Old General Liu and try your best to lure me here?" ”

Steward Liu shook his head with difficulty and said, "Young Master, what are you talking about, what kind of betrayal?" ”

Xu Rui snorted coldly and said, "Still want to quibble? Outside the door of the inn is written Luxu wine, is it a bucket of five texts or not? ”

Steward Liu nodded: "That's right, that's what my master and I wrote when we came yesterday, what's the problem?" ”

Xu Rui sneered: "The problem is big, Luxu wine is brewed twice a year, and it will deteriorate after five months, and the Luxu wine brewed in spring is twice as expensive as the Luxu wine made from fruits in autumn because of the use of nectar."

At present, it is only July, and the Luxu wine in the world is spring wine, at least ten wen and one bucket, and the one with five wen and one bucket written on the brand is clearly autumn wine!

The inn is busy, and it is possible to hang the wrong sign occasionally, but when you say that this is the case, do you think the inn that makes a living from it will hang up a wrong sign for two days?

This is clearly someone disguised as an innkeeper to lure me to the bait, but he is not familiar with the market and shows his feet! ”

"Young master, I really don't know, really, the master is inside, if you don't believe it, you can go in and take a look."

Old housekeeper Liu looked aggrieved when he heard this.

Xu Rui sneered: "Even now, you still have to be hard-mouthed, you look at such a lively street market, there are three sugar vendors alone, but why don't you see a child on the street?" ”

As soon as these words came out, Old Housekeeper Liu was stunned for a moment, where would there be a shortage of children running around in the usual bazaar?

Especially in front of some sugar vendors, there are often a group of children around to smell the syrup, and there are only adults in this market, not a single child, which is clearly fraudulent.

Old housekeeper Liu opened his mouth wide, and suddenly his face changed, and two lines of tears flowed from his eyes.

"Young master, it's too late, forgive the slave and the slave, forgive the slave and the slave."

As he spoke, a papier-mΓ’chΓ© ball fell from his other cuff, no bigger than his thumb, and it exploded immediately when it fell to the ground.

In an instant, the noisy bazaar instantly quieted down, as if time suddenly stood still, everyone stopped what they were doing, and in the eyes of Xu Rui and the others, the scene was extremely weird.

"I've been tricked, let's go!"

Xu Rui shouted, instantly shattering the peace of this moment.

When Qin Fei heard this, he immediately beckoned everyone to rush out, but at this time, whether it was the peddlers, pawns, or ordinary people, it seemed that they had suddenly turned into wild beasts, and everyone in the entire town took out the sharp weapons hidden in every corner and rushed towards everyone.

It turned out that this town was a huge trap, waiting for Xu Rui to throw himself into the net.
