Chapter 21: The Valley of Ten Thousand Flowers
The two rested in the monastery for the night.
There were many people who stayed up all night tonight, and after Zhang Chu entered the city, he ordered the Haizhou Mansion to fully cooperate and be sure to capture Tang Yun.
Naturally, the Haizhou Mansion would fully cooperate, and they sent almost as many people as they could to search for it throughout Haizhou City.
Unfortunately, nothing.
They also came to the monastery, but the monks knew nothing about the fact that the two uninvited guests had infiltrated the monastery. What's more, those little officials who came to look for it were also absent-minded, just looking for them casually in the temple and leaving.
The next day, the search outside the city did not stop.
Zhang Chu was furious, but the anger did not make him lose his mind. According to the hundred horsemen who escaped, Tang Yun appeared in the house of the Evil Dragon Gang, and later disappeared without a trace while taking advantage of the chaos.
Zhang Chu knew that Tang Yun might have something to do when he came to Haizhou. The four gates of the entire city were sealed off last night, so it was absolutely impossible for him to leave the city.
In other words, Tang Yun is still in Haizhu City.
Zhang Chu's judgment was not wrong, because Tang Yun really had no way to leave Haizhou last night. However, he miscalculated the speed of Haizhou's actions.
Because in the capital of God and in the place, in fact, there are two different concepts. The gods have the Imperial History Tower, as well as the Sixing Temple, and countless pairs of eyes are staring. Therefore, most of the officials working in the Shendu Yamen were conscientious and did not dare to make the slightest mistake.
Because the hundred horses were instructed by the emperor, the government fully cooperated with the hundred horses and did not dare to relax in the slightest.
But Haicheng Mansion has long been used to being casual, and suddenly so nervous, many people are not used to it.
Haicheng is a port city, and the traffic is also extended in all directions. Many caravans were carrying goods and were waiting in line outside the city gates early in the morning. They had to hurry up and deliver the goods, and they couldn't afford to neglect the sea.
Baiqi originally ordered Haizhou Mansion to conduct a stern search at the city gate, but what they didn't expect was that it was such a trivial matter, and Haizhou Mansion encountered serious obstacles.
Since many things in the city are controlled by large and small chambers of commerce, even the people in charge of the investigation can't withstand the pressure of the chamber of commerce.
This is also a helpless thing, after all, according to the orders of the hundred horsemen, any batch of carriages, every corner must be carefully checked, but this is obviously impractical.
Not to mention that the efficiency is not high, the key is that many carriages are loaded with salted fish.
Fish, for many places, is not a staple food, but it is also an important dish. Ordinary marine fish is difficult to preserve, and can only be stored for a long time by marinating salted fish.
As a result, fresh sea fish has become a very precious thing.
Yizhou is actually not far from Haizhou, and there are many counties along the way, so these sea fish must be transported there as soon as possible. As long as you keep it fresh, you can get a good price.
Therefore, in the case of inefficient inspections, many short-tempered businessmen began to scold. Under pressure, the Haizhou government also had to speed up inspections.
Once you speed it up, it gets sloppy.
Tang Yun and the old beggar hid in a pile of fish and left.
They all smelled of fish, and they secretly left halfway through.
The old beggar pointed to the distance and whispered, "It's not far away, I still remember that place." ”
In the distance, there is a rolling mountain.
This mountain is really a little high, and from a distance, you can't even see what is in the distance.
