Chapter 143: Find a hiding place

"Okay, whoever finishes drinking first will be the big brother"

Xu Ran's eyes rolled, and he suddenly snatched the wine from Xiang Yu's hand with lightning speed, drank it all, and said with a smile: "Now, you are my little brother."

Xiang Yu frowned and asked, "What do you mean by this?"

Xu Ran shrugged his shoulders and said, "You are seriously injured and can't drink, so no matter what, I win, and you can be my little brother obediently."

Xiang Yu was suddenly so angry that his teeth hurt, and he said angrily: "I don't accept it."

Xu Ran immediately raised his eyebrows and said: "The eldest husband is full of words, how can he not talk without words."

Xiang Yu suddenly stopped talking.

In this way, Xiang Yu was fooled into a little brother by Xu Ran, but Xiang Yu was unconvinced, and the next day, Xu Ran asked with a straight face: 'Xiang Yu, do you know where Liu Bang is hiding'.

Xu Ran didn't forget the purpose of coming to Wu County, but it was to kill Liu Bang.

"Liu Bang's treacherous villain, after trapping me, he left the next day, I don't know where to hide" Xiang Yu heard Liu Bang, and he also hated itchy.

Liu Bang led the remnants of the army to join him, and he treated it sincerely, but he didn't expect Liu Bang to tell the Qin army that he was going to rob grain and grass, and he was ambushed by the Qin army.

When he came back, he found that Liu Bang had begun to rebel against his subordinates, and said that he wanted to avenge himself, Xiang Yuqi's teeth were itching, and if he hadn't been seriously injured that day, he would have killed Liu Bang directly.

And now when he heard Xu Ran talk about Liu Bang, Xiang Yu hated it so much.

"However, as long as he is in Huiji County, I will be able to find him, after all, the three thousand people he is carrying will have to eat, give me two days, and I will definitely be able to find out where he is hiding," Xiang Yu said.

"I found it, tell me, I'm going to do it myself," Xu Ran said in a flat tone.

"Can't be careless, no matter how much Liu Bang has two or three thousand men and horses," Xiang Yu said: "When I find Liu Bang's hiding place, after I am injured, I will lead the army to level him."

"Hehe, this matter, your eldest brother and I are enough to do it alone" Xu Ran said with a smile: "At least, I, as a big brother, have to convince you as a little brother."

"You want to go alone," Xiang Yu's eyes widened.

"That's nature," Xu Ran nodded.

Xiang Yu stared at Xu Ran carefully, feeling that the other party was even more arrogant than him, he looked at Xu Ran and said, "If you really don't bring a soldier and a horse, you can kill Liu Bang among thousands of people, I will be convinced of you, the eldest brother."

"A word is a certainty," Xu Ran smiled at the corner of his mouth.

"A word is a certainty," Xiang Yu nodded.

Subsequently, Xiang Yu ordered people to look for Liu Bang's traces, Liu Bang and his two or three thousand men, Liu Bang with so many people, need a lot of food every day.

Therefore, as long as you investigate whether the mountain villages near the mountains that are large enough to hide thousands of people have been robbed, it can be enough to investigate and narrow down the scope.

Not to mention, if you have the intention to find Liu Bang's hiding place, you really arrived early in two days.

According to the information brought back by Xiang Yu's subordinates, there is a stretch of mountain forest fifty miles east of Wu County, and several small villages at the foot of the mountain forest have been often robbed for a long time.

And according to the people in the village, every day at noon, in the middle of the mountains and forests, there is thick smoke, so Xiang Yu's subordinates guessed that it should be the fire hidden in the mountains and forests to cook.

Xiang Yu relayed the news to Xu Ran, so Xu Ran set off, led by a small soldier of Xiang Yu, and in less than an hour, he came to the place where Liu Bang was suspected of hiding.

There are two large mountains around it, covered with dense vegetation, with a radius of several thousand meters as far as the eye can see, and thousands of people are hidden inside, and it is not difficult to find them.

Around, there are also many villages.

"Right here," Xu Ran asked.

The soldier replied, 'My lord, this is it.'

"Let's go, let's go into the village," Xu Ran said.

The two rode horses and slowly entered the village, this village is not big, there are about 100 households, there are old and young, the two of them entered the village, and the people in the village looked at the two of them vigilantly, as if outsiders were not welcome.

"You go and ask, what is the approximate range of smoke from the mountains and forests," Xu Ran commanded.

The little soldier received the order, and immediately went to ask, and after a while, he ran over and said excitedly, 'My lord, they say that the place where the smoke comes from is on the mountainside.'

As he spoke, he also pointed to the mountains and forests next to him.

"Stop, you bandits"

"I'm fighting with you"

At this moment, a terrible shout came, heartbreaking, Xu Ran heard the voice, rode over, and saw about twenty men, robbing a family.

Some held rice in their hands, others poultry.

A middle-aged woman pulled the robber to the death, but was ruthlessly kicked away by a kick, and the middle-aged woman snorted and fell to the ground.

There were people around who came out to watch, but when they saw this group of robbers, they all dared to be angry and didn't dare to speak.

"I'll kill you if you're chasing," a man glared at with fierce eyes.

"Horse..."

"There are two horses in front"

"These two horses are enough for us to eat"

The twenty men were about to leave with the grain in their hands, but suddenly they found two horses in front of them, and when they saw these two horses, they were as greedy as a hungry wolf looking at a sheep.

The eyes of these people showed a thick look of greed, and they licked the corners of their mouths.

When these people found the horses and exclaimed, Xu Ran was also looking at these two dozen people, these people all looked similar, unkempt, yellow and thin, and their eyes were deep-set.

It was like not having eaten in days.

Next, more than two dozen people rushed over, still holding various weapons in their hands, and immediately slashed at the horses, which in their eyes were food.

Xu Ran's five fingers opened, and suddenly a violent wave of qi appeared out of thin air, if it was a storm, it would directly blow more than two dozen people to their backs.

These people didn't care about it, got up and rushed towards the two horses again, Xu Ran shook his head, and then condensed his internal force into a finger wind qi, which instantly pierced the eyebrows of these people.

Blood holes appeared in the center of the eyebrows, blood flowed out, and he fell straight to the ground.

The soldiers next to him were dumbfounded, completely unable to see how the more than twenty people died.

These more than 20 people have been wiped out by hunger, so Xu Ran killed them all.

Xu Ran got off the horse, picked up a bag of rice on the ground, as well as a few poultry, and walked in front of the middle-aged woman in the aisle, saying, "Auntie, the thing is returned to its original owner"

"Thank you, thank you, benefactor," the middle-aged woman took it, crying with joy.

"You can also go back to your life, it's enough for me to go into the mountain alone" Xu Ran turned his head again and said to Xiao Bing.

The little soldier nodded and said, "My lord, the little one will go back first."

Next, Xu Ran entered the mountain alone, walked towards the destination in the mountains and forests, and in about ten minutes, Xu Ran found people.

In one valley there were all people, about one or two thousand, each of whom was hungry and cold, and in a state of malaise.

These people are the remnants of Chen Sheng's army.
