Chapter 187
Since leaving the main road a few hours ago, they have not walked on a very easy path, and the pace is much slower than at the beginning. On the other side, Lin Xuanzhong and the others both traveled lightly, although they had a different route, but if they had been on the road, it would have been reasonable to say that they should have arrived earlier than them, so the current situation is indeed a bit strange.
"Wait a minute, they walked two hours later than us last night, maybe the route is not familiar, and there is some delay on the way," it is a relief to everyone, although the middle-aged team leader said so on the surface, in fact, he was already thinking about what to do if an accident really happened.
Thinking that what the middle-aged team leader said was indeed somewhat possible, Zhang Qi and the others had no choice but to retreat to the same place and continue to wait.
On the side of the Fengyun mercenary team, Red Tears, Red Tears and Liu Lao were gathered together. Red Tears kept looking around, hoping to see the two suddenly appear from some corner, but unfortunately they didn't see any movement for a long time.
"Dad, Brother Qingfeng, why haven't they arrived yet?" Red Tears was more anxious than Zhang Qi, but like Zhang Qi, there was no other way but to wait.
"I guess they're still on the way," said Daddy Redtear, a little uncertain, "and they're two hours behind us, maybe a little late." ”
"But Dad, didn't you say before that the two of them should arrive before us?"
"That's when they are familiar with the route, maybe they got lost on the road overnight!" "Last night's night was indeed not good, but it was not enough for the two to not argue about the direction, the reason why Red Tears Dad said this is to make Red Tears feel at ease.
"Yes, Red Tears, maybe they're delayed on the road? Don't worry, we'll wait. The red medicine on the side followed with a word of comfort.
"Old Liu, what do you think?" may be because Red Tears listened to his father and sister too many words of comfort, and wanted to ask Liu Lao what he meant.
"Qingfeng Gongzi is a dragon and a phoenix, and the nobles have their own heavenly help, I think the head of the family is right, what happened to the two of them on the road delayed the trip!" Thinking that day Lin Xuanzhong faced Wu Long and Wu Yu's face did not change, and his face was masculine, Liu Lao couldn't help but praise him, and at the same time planned to use this to persuade Red Tears to rest assured.
Maybe it's because of the good words of Liu Lao, and Lin Xuanzhong's image in Red Tears' heart, Liu Lao's words are exactly what Red Tears wants, so Red Tears nodded with a smile after hearing it, "Then we'll wait." ”
Seeing that his words had a role, Liu Lao stroked his beard very proudly, and felt more and more that he had described it properly, but if Liu Lao knew that Lin Xuanzhong and Qingyi were arrested by Zhou Wuji and others, and they were humiliated in turn, and finally even said hard
I didn't dare to say anything angry, I really don't know how Liu Lao would feel. Time passed little by little, and waiting for a few hours was not a big deal for the two mercenary teams, but because of the Wu family's affairs, the two mercenary teams were in a hurry to go back, and all this kind of waiting became difficult.
At the same time, Zhou Wuji and the others had been happy in the tavern for a long time, and the capital that was posted upside down last night was all earned, and it didn't take much effort to earn dozens of jade stones to have fun with, and they could live happily for several days.
In addition, a day has passed since Wu Long's incident yesterday, and the news that Wu Long angered Jiang Ni and Nan Xiangyi has spread far and wide. After knowing that Wu Long not only spread wilderness in the territory of the Nan family, but also angered a person in charge of the black market, the relevant news spread in the jurisdiction of the Nan family for a while. It was more lively than many people discussing the war and the movement of fierce beasts, and everyone in the streets and alleys was waiting to see a good show.
This is the case in a place like the City That Never Sleeps, as long as there is special news about our young lady, it always spreads quickly. After the things that could have been private were spread, the Nan family would expand the matter for the sake of their own face and the black market, so it was good that the news that Wu Long was angry with the person in charge of the black market did not spread out, and as soon as it was spread, the Wu family was not just as simple as apologizing in private.
In this case, it was actually difficult for the Wu family to spare energy to investigate the ins and outs of yesterday's incident, and they just wanted to quell the rumors in the city as soon as possible.
Before, the Red Tears Daddy's speculation would not be wrong, after this incident, Wu Long may disappear from the Wu family in the future, Wu Yu's fate will only be worse than Wu Long, and the overall power of the Wu family in Donglin City may not be greatly affected, but everyone related to Wu Yu will be implicated, just like Wu Long now. Originally, those who loved to protect Wu Long, no matter how high their status was in the Wu family, would all plummet now.
Putting aside matters related to Wu Long, Lin Xuanzhong and the three of them have already formulated a series of plans after careful discussion. Now that there is hope of escaping, the mental state of the three has changed greatly. Although it still looks sluggish on the surface, it is actually pretended.
Of course, Qing Yi and Ming have no regrets, and it is still a fact that they have abdominal pain because of eating steamed buns. According to the results of the discussion between the three of them, Qingyi and Ming Buregret had to endure hunger as much as possible in the next two days, and the extra steamed buns were eaten by Lin Xuanzhong. In contrast, Lin Xuanzhong felt that he was very lucky, although the steamed buns were digested quickly in the stomach, he had nothing to do in prison, so he didn't worry about starving.
After having a plan to escape, the two are more worried about the people outside. If they don't arrive at the agreed place for a long time, they will definitely find out that the two of them have an accident. Thinking about Lao Zhang and Red Tears, they will still worry about themselves, Lin Xuanzhong really doesn't want to stay in prison for a moment.
But just now, Lin Xuanzhong himself had seen that a fifth-order martial cultivator couldn't even break the iron pillar, let alone him and Qingyi, so even though he wouldn't be poisoned, Lin Xuanzhong didn't have any thoughts of escaping, so he could only be anxious.
Qing Yi only cared about enduring the abdominal pain, although he was also worried about the people outside, but more energy was still on the plan. If he can be taken away by them on time, Qingyi will have to think more about some possible situations.
Time passed little by little, and from time to time the wails of some prisoners could be heard from afar, refreshing the three of them. Now Lin Xuanzhong is very glad to be locked up in such a remote position, otherwise he would really be killed by those people.
Two hours passed in a blink of an eye, and the middle-aged team leader was on their side, and after waiting for several hours in a row, everyone realized that Lin Xuanzhong and the two might have an accident. Now the people of the Fengyun mercenary team are not leaving, nor are they leaving, the middle-aged team leader and the red tear father are standing together, and there are Mo Lingyun, the red tears sisters, Liu Lao Zhang Qi and others next to them.
In the darkness of the night, everyone's face is solemn.
"If you are in a hurry to go back and go back early, I will find a way to solve Qingfeng's affairs?" The middle-aged team leader knew the difficulties of the red tear father, and he didn't want to see the opportunity to be delayed because of Lin Xuanzhong's relationship, so that their Liu family would be troubled by the Wu family.
"Qingfeng is kind to Hongyao, and I am kind to my Liu family, I can't ignore his affairs," Red Tears Dad is a person who values love and righteousness, and he naturally doesn't plan to leave when he knows that Lin Xuanzhong has an accident.
"The head of the family, the Wu family in the city is our henchmen, if we don't go back early, the people in the family may be in danger," Seeing that the red tear father wanted to stay to save Lin Xuanzhong, Liu Lao persuaded with a worried face.
It's not that Liu Lao doesn't want to go back to find Lin Xuanzhong and the others, but the current situation really doesn't allow it, in case before they go back, the Wu family in the city receives the news. Not only will the Liu family be in danger, but many members of the Fengyun mercenary team will be in danger.
"Old Liu, what nonsense are you talking about? That's not our fault, it's Wu Yu's own fault," Red Tears was dissatisfied with Liu Lao's statement, and immediately contradicted it.
"Red Tears, Elder Liu is your elder, how can you talk to Elder Liu like this," a majestic voice sounded, and a man with sword eyebrows in the Fengyun mercenary army looked at Red Tears with an angry face at the moment.
seemed to be very afraid of the person talking in front of him, and he wanted to glare at the other party, but after seeing the other party's fierce eyes, Red Tears quickly lowered his head and didn't dare to say anything. And this person is the second leader of the Fengyun mercenary team, no worse than the middle-aged team leader in terms of strength, and he has always been low-key, but obviously Red Tears is afraid of this person.
"Liu Er, Red Tears is not sensible, don't worry about her little girl," Seeing that Red Tears lowered his head aggrievedly, thinking of his grandson's marriage, Liu Lao was concerned about it, and he didn't expect that the Liu family might have to move out of Donglin City in the future, and his grandson's marriage could no longer rely on Red Tears, but first helped Red Tears say a good word.
I didn't expect Liu Lao to speak for Red Tears, Liu Er was even more angry, but out of respect for Liu Lao, Liu Er, as Liu Lao's nephew, didn't say anything more.
"Don't make noise, Qingfeng's matter is important," time is pressing, but others have to delay time, and Red Tears Dad can't stand it.
"I think it's better to think of a compromise solution," it was Mo Lingyun who spoke, Mo Lingyun also had a headache about the disappearance of Qingfeng and Qingyi, of course, this matter must be managed, now it is indeed time to press, they can find out the situation as soon as they send someone to find out.
"Lingyun, what good way do you have?" Hearing that Mo Lingyun had something to say, the middle-aged team leader hurriedly asked. All of a sudden, everyone looked at Mo Lingyun.
"The head of the Liu family really should go back early, Qingfeng and their affairs are equally urgent," after a pause, Mo Lingyun continued: "It is not necessarily good to go back to save Qingfeng, so if the head of the Liu family really wants to stay, he can let some people leave first." "Mo Lingyun's method is to take into account the actual situation at the moment, which not only fulfills the affection of the head of the Liu family, but also does not delay the search and rescue of Lin Xuanzhong and the others.
"Ling Yun's method is very reasonable, I think it's better to do it like this, Ling Yun, you take Zhang Qi and them back first, and then draw ten people to stay with me to find Qingfeng them. Nodding, the middle-aged team leader directly agreed with Mo Lingyun's proposal.
