Chapter 155: Go to Devil's Cry Ridge

"Cousin, thanks to you for coming up with the plan to change the car." Li Gong walked over for some reason, his face was slightly blue due to the strong fear, and when he said this, there was obvious fear in his expression.

After the carriage left the official road, everyone, including Li Gong, was transferred to the Han family's truck according to Chen Ying's plan, and even Guo Wan and others got on the mule cart.

At this moment, the Li family's carriage was surrounded in front, and only a part of the goods were used to weigh the weight.

It's a simple solution.

But for now, it seems to have worked.

The three carriages were too eye-catching, and Chen Ying and Li Xi lifted the curtain several times, so that some people with ulterior motives knew the location of the female dependents. The Li family's convoy then became the main target of attack and was the first to be surrounded.

Of the scenarios Chen Ying predicted, this was not the worst. It's just that she didn't expect that there were still pursuers in the rear.

"Get in the car." Ye Qing glanced back at Li Gong and the others, with a rare sternness and reproach in his eyes.

"All in the car." She repeated it again, turning and moving on.

Li Gong was silent, turned around and got on the mule cart, and Guo Wan and the others quickly returned to the car.

"How long can you resist?" Chen Ying raised her voice and asked, while constantly observing the terrain and silently calculating the location of this place, which corroborated with the records of the mountains and rivers in her mind.

"A moment at most." Ye Qing turned his back to her and said calmly, reached into his waist with both hands and took out his weapon, and began to disassemble the cloth wrapped around his head.

They were two iron whips, the body of which was two fingers thick, and the tips of the whips were made into a hook-like shape, and the cold was cold.

She dragged the iron whip to the ground like those coachmen, and her deep voice was like the rubbing of iron tools: "Ma Laosan, catch the car." ”

The Jianghu man who was called by name immediately put away his long knife and sat back in silence in the driver's place.

"He knows the way, you follow him, and he will take you to Zhaoyuan." Ye Qing said the longest paragraph of the trip.

By this time, the long whip had been hung from her waist, her arms drooping, her eyes were fixed ahead, and the green cloth cloth in her bun was hunting in the wind.

Not far away, those rice heads also realized that something was wrong, there was no one in the carriage at all, and they seemed a little confused at first, but soon, they turned their attention to the seemingly ordinary Han family caravan that followed behind.

"We've been fooled!"

"Behind is the grain cart!"

The rice heads quickly shouted new slogans, and at the same time began to call the displaced people loudly, and the gray tide was gradually approaching in this direction.

Ye Qing took a deep breath, licked his lips, and reached out to hold the whip handle.

The cold and rough touch quickly swept away the hot flashes in her palm, and her eyes became indifferent.

"Devil's Cry Ridge!" A clean voice suddenly sounded behind him.

She quickly turned her head and looked at the girl who had leaned out of the car.

It was only then that she realized that the mule cart had not driven up the eastern side of the mountain as she had expected, but had remained parked in the same place.

"To go to Zhaoyuan here, there are at least twenty miles of mountain road to go." Looking at the gray crowd in front of him, Chen Ying seemed to hear his heartbeat at this moment: "You can only resist for a moment at most, and after a while, the mule cart will not be able to go far at all, and we will definitely be hijacked by the pursuers halfway." And the Devil's Cry Ridge is three miles to the west, and there is a moat after entering the mountain, which can allow us to resist for a while. ”

"A silver lining!" The Jianghu man named Ma Laosan was the first to react, and as soon as he said these three words, his complexion changed.

Chen Ying didn't notice the change in him, she just looked at Ye Qing intently.

To make everyone obey her plan, the first person who needs to be persuaded is Ye Qing.

Ye Qing was shaking his head at the moment: "The road is difficult to walk, there are few people, and it can't be stopped." ”

The mountain road leading to Devil's Cry Ridge was extremely difficult, and three of the four of them had to be left behind to catch the car, and the remaining one was powerless in front of these pursuers, fearing that he would die if he showed up.

"One of you will go to Zhaoyuan to deliver the letter, one will disturb the pursuers, and the other two will be responsible for guarding and chariots. The Han family also has two coachmen, who should be able to cope with the treacherous road conditions. Chen Ying spoke very quickly and made a dispatch, raising his arm to point to the displaced people in front: "When they come here, the people behind can shout 'This is the family of Lord Li of Dengzhou Governor', 'Robbing the family of the official will punish the nine clans' and other words to disturb the morale of the army, as long as they are in chaos, the rear pursuers will definitely be blocked when they come, and they can also buy time for us to get out." ”

A considerable part of the crowd are real homeless people, and they should not know the truth of the matter, and if they know that they are intercepting the family members of officials, they will definitely develop a fear mentality, which will make it difficult for those "rice heads" to drive, and chaos will also arise. And if this chaos can continue until the pursuing cavalry arrives, and the two groups of men and horses collide in one place, it must be even more chaotic.

This is what Chen Ying thinks is the most reasonable conclusion she has come to based on the information from all parties.

Ye Qing hesitated.

However, when her eyes turned to the mule carts, a trace of emotion quickly appeared on her indifferent face.

The plan to transfer flowers and trees was thought up by Chen Ying.

When she changed cars halfway, she had already received confirmation from Chen Ying.

At this moment, Ye Qing only hoped that this noble girl who loved to ask questions would be as smart and witty as she had shown before, and make the most accurate judgment.

"Go to Devil's Cry Ridge." She said, put away the iron whip without hesitation, turned around and boarded the front of Chen Ying's car.

She's gambling.

Just like the countless times in distress on the rivers and lakes before, gamble with intuition and instinct.

So far, I have never lost.

Ye Qing picked up the horsewhip and made a gesture.

Ma Laosi nodded immediately, and walked towards the mountain range not far away, apparently intending to hide in the middle.

The person after the embellishment should be him.

"Ma Laosi, after disrupting the pursuers, please think of a quick return to Penglai." Chen Ying opened her mouth abruptly, and as she spoke, her eyes were still fixed on the homeless person in front of her, her eyebrows furrowed.

Ma Laosi was stunned, looked back at Ye Qing, and waited for her instructions.

It seems that as long as Ye Qing does not agree, any of Chen Ying's plans will be difficult to implement.

Ye Qing was looking at Chen Ying.

The face that rarely had expression was slightly mixed with a hint of puzzlement at this time.

"In addition to Huang County, the nearest county seat from here is Zhaoyuan." Chen Ying expressed the worry in her heart, and her eyebrows became tighter and tighter: "When we left Huang County, those displaced people did not move. So I suspect they came from Zhaoyuan. And if my guess is true, then Zhaoyuan is not safe. ”

Ye Qing looked up at the sky for a while, as if he was thinking, and waved his hand to Ma Laosi: "Do as she says." After that, he tightened the reins with a "whew".

Ma Laosi received the order and quickly ran towards the direction of the mountains and forests.
