Chapter Ninety-Three: Qiusheng is missing
Shi Chen looked at everyone and was embarrassed to brush off their kindness.
Coupled with the fact that the injuries on his body really needed time to recuperate, Shi Chen nodded although he was a little worried in his heart.
"Okay, take care, everyone!"
This kind of thing is not given a task, and the skill book cannot be exploded.
After speaking, Shi Chen turned his head and walked towards the town.
As I walked, I suddenly felt as if I was missing something.
That's right, Qiusheng!
Thinking of this, Shi Chen patted his head, since Qiusheng came to him in the afternoon and said that he was going to join the war, he left again and disappeared.
It was nightfall, and it had been two hours since he left.
I didn't see Qiusheng for these four hours, and I didn't see Qiusheng on the front line just now, and I don't know where this kid went?
The more Shi Chen thought about it, the more uneasy he became, and turned around and walked to the entrance of the town, where the people in the town were nervously deployed, according to the tip, the bandit team was still less than half an hour away from here.
The sight during the day is not as good as at night.
Zong Shen was arranging for the villagers to tie torches everywhere, but there was not a trace of fire left in the real position.
At this time, seeing Shi Chen come out again, he couldn't help but feel a little strange.
"Little brother Wencai, why are you here again?"
Shi Chen said worriedly.
"Mayor Zong, have you seen Qiusheng?"
Zong Shen frowned, thought for a moment, and then shook his head.
"No, I'm resting all afternoon, shouldn't Qiusheng be with you?"
Hearing Zong Shen say this, Shi Chen's brows tightened.
"It's not good, Qiusheng told me in the afternoon that he wanted to join the war, and then he never returned, at this time 2 hours have passed, I'm afraid he went to the county seat by himself, and he didn't expect to find trouble with the bandits, and he didn't expect that the bandits would go out in the middle of the night."
Zong Shen looked helpless.
"Now that the bandit army is pressing the border, the defense of Taiping Town is not enough, I am afraid that I will not be able to spare the manpower to go to the county seat to find Qiusheng..."
Shi Chen also understood the meaning of Zong Shen's words.
At this time, Taiping Town undertook the task of fighting against the main force of the militia bandits, and it was the most critical and stressful place.
What's more, after suffering a fiasco during the day, the militia bandits must have hated everyone in Taiping Town.
Once the town of Taiping is captured, everyone will be greeted with only brutal slaughter.
Which is more important, Shi Chen can still tell the difference.
And Shi Chen himself is an injured number, don't say that it is difficult to travel more than 20 kilometers to the county seat, even if you fight a positional battle on the spot.
"Hey..."
With a slight sigh, Shi Chen turned around again.
The battle ahead is critical, and Zong Shen, as the mayor and commander, is reasonable, and he shouldn't bother him anymore!
Zong Shen also sighed slightly.
These two are good boys, but now I can only wish him good luck, after all, behind him, there are more important things guarded.
That is, homeland!
Thinking of this, Zong Shen's expression became resolute again, facing the front line of defense, and he was ready for battle!
And Shi Chen returned to the courtyard, feeling more and more uncomfortable.
Now I need manpower to go to the county town to find Qiusheng instead of myself, and this person can't be too weak, otherwise he will be sent to death at all.
Even if the bandit army pressed the border, Shi Chen did not believe that the county town would be completely undefended.
Suddenly, Shi Chen remembered Huang Xiaocui, who had disappeared for a day.
"Little Cui..."
"Little Cui..."
"Xiao Cui!"
"Huang Xiaocui! You come out for me! ”
Shi Chen's voice changed from a call to a shout.
I don't know where this soul tomb went?
He has already confessed to the Lord, but he is so willful.
"Whew!"
A cyan shadow flew from outside the house, directly smashed through the window paper, and landed smoothly in front of Shi Chen.
Then as soon as the blue light turned, a slender figure appeared.
It was Huang Xiaocui.
"Something?"
Her voice was extremely indifferent, and she didn't even call her son, where did she recognize a special magic weapon, obviously she had accepted a Lafayette back.
Shi Chen's heart was slightly bitter, but after all, he had a request from Huang Xiaocui, and the matter was important.
"Xiaocui, Qiusheng left by himself, and now he is missing, it is very likely that he went to the county seat, I want you to take a trip and help me bring Qiusheng back."
Shi Chen said eagerly, the concern in his words was difficult to hide.
"Good!"
Huang Xiaocui sensed the worry in Shi Chen's words, and didn't show Shi Chen's face anymore, and agreed very happily.
"Wait for me."
Before the words fell, Huang Xiaocui's body moved, and he turned into a green light and flew outside the house.
It seems that he hasn't seen it for a day, and this Huang Xiaocui's speed of controlling the Spirit Cultivation Tomb is a little faster, and it seems that his strength has grown a lot.
This Huang Xiaocui's growth is like a hanging, and even completely beats himself who won the golden finger.
Seeing that Huang Xiaocui agreed and acted quickly, Shi Chen couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
With Huang Xiaocui out of the horse, it is not a problem to easily clean up one or two hundred bandits, which is enough to bring Qiusheng back safely.
Shi Chen finally breathed a sigh of relief.
He lay back on his bed and began to try his best to recover his state.
He himself was prepared for the worst, and if the front line was lost, he would go to the front line and cast the six-armed magic phase, which should be enough to delay for a while.
At this time, Qiusheng was trekking through the mountains and forests.
He carried an old-fashioned bird gun from nowhere on his back, and iron sand and gunpowder sacs hanging from his waist.
At this time, he was almost arriving in Shicheng County.
In order to avoid revealing his whereabouts, he walked the whole time on the mountain road away from the avenue, and naturally he did not find the large army of bandits marching on the avenue.
"Whew..."
Qiusheng has been trekking for so long, and his body is already feeling tired!
So I found a rock, sat down casually, and prepared to take a short rest before setting off again.
The purpose of his visit to the county seat this time was very simple.
That is to kill Zhou Tianmin.
As the saying goes, if you kill Zhou Tianmin yourself, then the bandits will inevitably become a mess of scattered sand.
Even if someone takes over Zhou Tianmin's position, it will not be resolved in a day or two, and the internal change of power is not so harmonious.
It is more likely that there is an internal struggle within the bandit army because of the struggle for power and wealth, so that they have no time to take care of Taiping Town, and successfully delay the arrival of reinforcements from the provincial capital!
Of course, the idea is beautiful, but the implementation is difficult.
As the ruler of the bandits, it was very difficult to assassinate Zhou Tianmin.
This time, in order to prove himself, Qiusheng almost made a determination to die to carry out this task.
He wants to prove that he was born in autumn and will never be weaker than literary talent!
As my mind surges, my strength is recovering.
After resting for a few minutes, Qiusheng got up and continued to set off towards Shicheng County.
After walking for more than ten minutes, Qiusheng arrived at Shicheng County, standing on the hillside, but was stunned.
