The carriage is a carriage after all, and it is still a drive, pulling the three of us out of the city just when we heard the sound of galloping horses' hooves behind us, and we didn't need to look to know that it was Brother Xiaowu who rode his "sweaty BMW" to catch up.

I'm afraid the horse is not young, to this is already panting, sweating down the neck, straight nose, the three had to turn over and get out of the car, Yuanmei took a cloth bag from the car and carried it behind her, and whipped it at the horse's buttocks, the empty carriage rushed straight into the darkness, and the three took the opportunity to get into the woods next to the avenue, squatting in the grass and looking out.

Sure enough, Brother Xiao Wu followed, whipped his horse, galloped past us, and chased the carriage.

With the experience of the last time, I knew that he must still be following people, so no one moved, sure enough, half a cigarette, a team of people and horses ran from a distance, Xiao Wu Brother also turned over and came back with a dejected face, two groups of people gathered in one place, Xiao Wu Brother scolded angrily: "He, he, fuck, boiled, boiled, boiled, duck, duck, fly." ”

Xiao Liuzi uncharacteristically did not speak, but stepped back, and then a young man stepped forward and said: "Commander, the people from the central government will come tomorrow, what should I do?" ”

It's good that Brother Xiaowu didn't listen, but when he heard this, he raised his slap and slapped it on the speaker's face, scolding: "He, he, fuck, yet, yet, not yet, you, you, this group, rice, rice bucket." ”

At this time, Xiao Liuzi came out from behind the crowd, pretending to be out of breath, and asked with a smile: "Commander, then shall we arrange a sentry post tonight?" ”

"Ann, Ann, arrangement.."

"Everyone, listen well, and according to the original plan, they will return to their posts and take shifts. ”

"Arrange a fart!" ”

"Ah, Brother Xiao Wu said, there will be no checkpoints today, let's go back and rest early." ”

After hearing this, a group of people dispersed in a hurry, Xiao Liuzi was really a good flatterer, there was no trace of embarrassment, Xiao Wu Ge turned over and got on the horse, he led in front, and the crowd gradually disappeared on the avenue.

When I couldn't see the figure, we got out of the grass and headed in the direction of Longchang, I always felt that something was not quite right, but I couldn't think of anything, so I simply asked the second master boredly: "What's the situation with your face?" ”

"Damn, don't mention it, it's not Brother Xiaowu's eight calves who beat him, but fortunately, Zeng Weiguo said that he wanted to live, just these two slaps, and scared the sycophant half to death, and it was a trumpet, and it was pinching people, for fear of killing the second master and me, they couldn't pay the difference." ”

"Then we have to thank Captain Zeng."

"That is, when I look back and see him, I will definitely thank him for his eight ancestors..."

As she was talking, Yuanmei suddenly stood up and said, "No! ”

I was talking to the second master, she suddenly had such a voice, startled, looked at her in a daze, I don't know what was wrong, Yuanmei shook her head, and the three of them got into the woods again, it was still the mound where they slept at noon, everyone squatted on the ground, Yuanmei whispered: "Who do you guess will be the person who will arrive tomorrow?" ”

"This is not nonsense, it must be Zeng Weiguo and the little Japanese son." ”

"But according to my calculations, they have to be about ten days behind us, how can they suddenly speed up?" ”

This sentence stopped everyone, including Yuanmei herself, this place is not Beiping or Chongqing, there is an airport, it is said that sitting on that thing, from Beiping to Chongqing, it will not take half a day, although I have never believed it.

If you are taking a car, it is possible to suddenly advance the progress, but this is a mountain road paved with stones, and many places can't even call the road, at most it can only be regarded as a beast path, not to mention a car, even if people walk, it is full of dangers, and if you are not careful, you may roll down the mountain and fall to pieces.

In this way, we can only rely on horses and footboards, then it is categorically impossible to suddenly arrive here several days in advance, we take a short approach, do not sleep, do not eat, in order to lead them by ten days, they have a large team, to eat, sleep, to deal with all the cottages along the way, no matter how you think it is impossible to arrive at the same time as us, then this problem is strange.

The three of them lowered their heads and thought for a long time, and the second master pulled his head and said, "It doesn't matter who the is, let's go first, anyway, things are there, let's go first, first come, first served." ”

Yuanmei shook her head and said: "No, if it's only one day, we take a hot potato first, rather than that, I'd rather not go, anyway, Zeng Weiguo would never dare to enter Longchang without us." ”

I understood what Yuanmei meant, either retreat or simply not go in, all in all, things must not fall into Zeng Weiguo's hands, I asked her: "What do you mean?" ”

"Don't go, since there is no secret post tonight, we will enter Autumn City early tomorrow morning, we must find out what the so-called central government is, if it is a liar, it's okay, if it is really Zeng Weiguo and them, we can only make another plan." ”

After hearing this, the second master and I couldn't help but be stunned, but there was no reason to refute, to be honest, we played enough with Brother Xiaowu and his gang this time, this beam is completely unraveled, if it is found again, although it is not said that it is difficult to fly with wings, it will definitely be inevitable A vicious battle, just thinking about this is a headache.

But what Yuanmei said did make sense, I sighed and said, "According to the order of noon, you two will sleep first, two hours per shift, and when the sky is a little brighter, we will go straight to Qiucheng." ”

The second master will stop doing it, and said: "Let me do anything, can you stutter first?" ”

Yuanmei unloaded the cloth bag from behind, after opening it, it was full of oil paper bags, peeling off the oil paper, it turned out to be sauce beef and a three-yellow chicken, as well as a gourd rice wine and a few glutinous rice balls, the second master saw these, as if he had seen relatives, tears came down, his left hand ripped off the chicken leg, his right hand pinched a piece of beef, and the left and right started to eat happily, the food looked like gluttony in the world, I swallowed saliva when I saw it, and I also went up to tear the chicken neck, and slowly tasted it while drinking wine.

This rice wine has great stamina, the entrance is sweet, but after a while, I will be dizzy, fluttering, I thought that I would be on the first shift at night, I didn't dare to drink more, I pecked a few bites, ate the chicken neck, watched the second master full of wine and food, lying on the ground and snoring, Yuanmei cleaned up the mess, I was alone with the sword leaning against the big tree, on the first shift.

The insects in the woods screamed together, occasionally the breeze blew, the shadows of the trees swayed, the leaves rattled, it was really a good place to sleep, the night passed quietly, the morning was not yet dawn, I was woken up by Yuanmei, the three of them buried their bags under the mound, only brought some emergency things, by the rising morning light, went straight to the autumn city.

Arrived in Qiucheng, the sky was already bright, but the hour was still early, there was no one on the street, the three of them went straight to the security group, there was a restaurant that also made morning tea not far from the security group, at this time it had opened the door to welcome guests, the three of them went in, went directly to the second floor and picked a box with a window, from the window to see out of the door of the security group, gave the shopkeeper an ocean, told that today we have packed this box, can not let other people in, the shopkeeper nodded happily, immediately ordered someone to send some tea and snacks, three people sat and ate slowly, But his eyes are always fixed on the pedestrians coming and going below.

A pot of tea was drunk, and only then did someone report to the security group one after another, although they couldn't be named, but they were all familiar faces, these people went in and received their orders, and began to work up and down, wiping, sweeping, moving in and out, it seems that it is to meet the so-called high-ranking officials in preparation, and some people are running in and out, either carrying fruit in their hands, or dim sum tea bags, it is really lively, Xiao Wu Ge personally supervised the battle, standing at the door, pointing fingers, but there is no trace of joy on his face.

It's no wonder that the duck that flew to the beak was the most uncomfortable thing, and it was still running from his security group, it was really embarrassing to say it, the golden fortune boy became a yaksha ghost who wanted people's lives, how could it not make people angry?

Besides, this central official will arrive soon, how to explain it? If this is to blame, it is inevitable that he, the head of the security regiment, will be dismissed, and if he can't get it right, he will have to be brought to justice according to the charge of privately releasing thieves and handling unfavorable affairs, after all, the small leader of a local security regiment like this, the central government has 10,000 ways to kill him, and he doesn't need to ask to know that at this moment, his heart is fifteen buckets of water, seven up and eight down, and he is uneasy.

When they all packed up, Brother Xiaowu sent a few people, it seemed that they were going to meet at various crossings, so as to report the news in time, and waited until lunch time, and no one came back, and the security team sent people to carry buckets and rice buckets to deliver food and water, until the afternoon, the second master leaned on the stool and slept several times, and no one came.

Seeing that it was about to get dark, I saw a person leading a horse, and there was a person sitting immediately, both of them were dressed as usual, and they were both wearing a huge hat, covering their faces, the two came to the door of the security group, and the horse came forward to knock on the door, and after a while, the door opened a crack, and the horse led the horse into a thing similar to a document, which was dull for about a cigarette time, suddenly, the door was divided into left and right, Xiao Wu Ge stood at the door with someone respectfully, looking up at the one on the horse.

Yuanmei shouted softly: "It's coming", I hurriedly squinted my eyes and looked at the rider carefully, because the hat covered my face, I couldn't see who it was just by the figure, Yuanmei pointed to the horse and said: "That's the master." ”

I followed her fingers and noticed the person leading the horse, indeed, at this glance, the body shape and height are very familiar, but I can't remember who it is, Yuanmei said: "That's a woman."

I was so clever that there was a flash of lightning in my mind, and I couldn't help blurting out: "Zeng Rourou!" ”

The second master was also a clever and asked, "What is she doing here?" ”

Yuan Mei sighed and pointed to the bottom to continue looking.

In this way, the one who immediately was, if I guessed correctly, should be the young man with a bit of temperament who let me out, what does this mean? Zeng Rourou was demoted? But there's no reason to be so much worse all at once, after all, it's easy to be demoted and hard to be promoted, and how can she be so fast than Zeng Weiguo? What was the purpose of her coming so early?

A series of questions kept swirling in my mind, until I watched them enter the gate of the security group, I still couldn't understand it, Yuanmei asked something, I didn't hear clearly, and finally she slapped me hard, I turned my head, looked at her in a daze, and she asked again: "Is there any other way to enter?" ”

I thought about it, shook her head, she nodded, and ordered Xiao Er to have dinner, the three of them had their own hearts, bowed their heads and thought while eating, unexpectedly, it only took a cup of tea time, Zeng Rourou and they came out, Xiao Wu Ge nodded with a smile on his face, and ordered someone to go to inform the inn that had been booked to be ready, while ordering someone to bring the horse over, the young man turned over and got on the horse, this time it was Xiao Liuzi who led, Zeng Rourou stood next to him, and said some polite words, and the three of them turned around and left.

It wasn't until they turned the corner that Brother Xiao Wu hummed a little song, turned around and went back to the house, Yuanmei nodded and said go, got up and went downstairs.

I and the second master knew what she was thinking, didn't ask much, followed her downstairs, she asked the shopkeeper about the location of the largest inn in Qiucheng, Baiyun Inn, three people went out of the street and alleys, and came to the downstairs of the inn, dozens of steps away from the inn, I grabbed her who was going forward, dragged into the alley on the side, she looked at me inexplicably, I pointed to the door of the inn, at this time the inn was full of people coming and going, very lively, she looked at it for a long time and didn't see a reason, the second master said: " Look at those guys. ”

After speaking, he pointed with his hand, only to see a few men constantly swaying in the crowd, his eyes kept sweeping everyone in the past, if he didn't look carefully, he really thought it was a person who was loitering, it seems that Zeng Rourou still brought a few people, and looking at the size, walking posture and murderous aura in his eyes, I am afraid that they are all masters of a dozen or ten.

Yuanmei sighed, and turned around helplessly to leave, when the second master suddenly: "Huh"? A sound, we followed his gaze, but saw Xiao Wu brother alone walked to the bottom of the Baiyun Inn, he was carrying a brand new box cannon, the butt of the gun was also tied to a red silk, he was originally buried under the mound by the second master, as soon as he saw that he had a gun, a few soldiers who pretended to hang out immediately surrounded him, and was about to reach out to stop him, only to hear someone shouting upstairs, a few soldiers looked up, then nodded, dispersed again, and went to their own places, Xiao Wu looked at those people, hehe smiled, humming a little song, he walked into the inn.

Seeing this scene, Yuan Mei also sneered, and said to herself, what do you want, leaning against the wall on the side with her arms in her arms, but she didn't leave.
