Chapter 102: Undercover
Lu Yunzhou watched No. 1 walk towards the north, so he waited quietly in the tree, and it was not until No. 1 was about to leave his field of vision that Lu Yunzhou carefully jumped to the next tree, trying not to make any sound, so as not to alarm No. 1 in front of him.
Lu Yunzhou hung far behind No. 1 all the way, followed carefully, and saw that No. 1 had been going in the direction of the north of the city, and the houses he passed by gradually changed from high-door houses to single-door courtyards, and then to low thatched houses, and the streets also changed from spacious and tidy to gradually becoming narrower and dirtier.
The situation he saw along the way made Lu Yunzhou feel quite familiar, and when he thought back to it, he remembered that on the first day he came to this world, he had visited Lan Shiqi's residence, and the streets near Lan Shiqi's house were lined with such a simple and dilapidated scene.
"Brother Lan's family lives in the northeast of Linzi City, and that area is about the slum area of Linzi City, so it seems that most of the places where this number is going are also the northeast area of Linzi City!"
The farther north went, the more desolate the surrounding scene became, with low thatched huts interspersed with shacks leaking on all sides, and even beggars lying in the streets, shivering with snot and snot.
Under the hideous night, it all seems like a hell on earth!
Lu Yunzhou saw No. 1 knocking on the gate of a courtyard.
This yard is surrounded by a fence, and there are several thatched huts in the yard, and it seems that the situation is already a "rich family" in the vicinity!
The way No. 1 knocks on the door is very rhythmic, three scenes and two short, as if it is passing some code.
Soon, a big man walked out of the courtyard.
Lu Yunzhou hid in a big tree not far from the courtyard gate, from his point of view, he could overlook the entire courtyard, Lu Yunzhou saw that the man carefully opened the door a crack, and after seeing that it was No. 1, he quickly let No. 1 into the door, and then closed the door immediately.
Lu Yunzhou saw the two of them walk into a thatched house, the lights of that room were quickly turned on, someone walked out of the house, and woke up the people in the other rooms, as the lights of all the thatched houses were turned on, everyone was woken up, walked out of the house one after another, and quickly came to the room where No. 1 was located.
The whole time, no one made the slightest sound, and it was clear that these people were all very trained.
Lu Yunzhou roughly counted the number of people, and found that there were more than forty of these assassins who came out one after another!
Lu Yunzhou was a little surprised, but he didn't expect that there were quite a lot of people left in Xueyan!
When he was in Shenchi that day, more than 20 assassins had been killed by Lu Yunzhou and others, and last night in the Blood Swallow's nest downstairs in Magnolia, Lu Yunzhou saw with his own eyes that Mrs. Lan swept away all the assassins in the entire Blood Swallow stronghold!
Originally, Lu Yunzhou thought that even if there were assassins left by luck in Xueyan, they were like No. 1, each hiding in different places in the city.
But unexpectedly, it turned out that the main strength of the blood swallow was hidden in this almost forgotten corner of the slums!
Lu Yunzhou saw that all the people of Blood Swallow had walked into the thatched hut in the middle, so he closed his eyes and listened attentively.
“…… I have already discussed with Duan Ergongzi, during this time, we disguised ourselves as the guards of Duan Mansion and hid in Duan Mansion......"
This is the voice of No. 1, Lu Yunzhou had heard it by Shen Chi that day, and was deeply impressed by his voice, and at this moment Lu Yunzhou can also be completely sure that the strong man who poured the night incense is No. 1!
But what surprised Lu Yunzhou the most was not this voice, but what was mentioned in the No. 1 mouth - Duan Er Gongzi!
In the Duan Mansion, there was actually someone who colluded with Blood Yan?
“…… I don't understand, why do we have to take refuge in the Duan Mansion, we are also safe here, and our identity on the surface is only a dock laborer working as coolies, and the government will not guess our identity......" An assassin asked, a voice that Lu Yunzhou did not recognize.
However, when he talked about dock workers, Lu Yunzhou remembered the dock workers he saw at Lan Shiqi's house that day.
It seems that many of the assassins of the Blood Swallow were disguised as dock laborers and hid in Linzi.
It also makes sense to think that there are many dock laborers, and most of them have a strong body, and the assassins of the Blood Swallow will not look very abrupt in it! These dock laborers are not usually taken seriously by the human rights nobles, and as long as they don't cause trouble, no one will care about them at all. In addition, the group of dock laborers is large and complex, many of them are refugees who have fled the famine, escaped criminals with cases in their hands, or slaves bought by wealthy businessmen.
“…… No, the situation is different now, last night, Lady Lan raided our stronghold downstairs in Magnolia, and all the companions in that stronghold survived! If I hadn't happened to go to Duan Ergongzi's place last night and escaped, I'm afraid you wouldn't have seen me......" No. 1 said in a deep voice.
“…… What, how could Mrs. Lan suddenly find out......"
“…… That stronghold is so secretive, how would Madame Lan know that there is a traitor among us? It can't be ......"
“…… And what about the chief? Isn't he ...... too?"
Lu Yunzhou heard a lot of talk in the thatched hut, and it was obvious that this news surprised all the assassins.
“…… The leader was in another stronghold last night, and escaped a catastrophe, and this morning before I returned to the stronghold downstairs in Magnolia, one of our companions, who was undercover under Mrs. Lan, suddenly hid in the crowd and made a gesture to me, I understood that something was wrong, so I immediately went to inform the chief, and the leader immediately decided to evacuate all the personnel of our other two strongholds in the city...... Shortly after we left, Madame Lan led the men into the two strongholds, and they moved very quickly...... In short, the current situation is very unfavorable for us, the leader has taken the companions of those two strongholds into hiding, and there will be no more action in the near future, and he has instructed me to find a way to transfer you...... The leader said that Tian Dan was only afraid that he was already aware of our plan and began to pay attention to us now! In case that, from now on, the leader will not appear again, and everything will be up to us ......" Number One answered the assassin's question.
Lu Yunzhou, who was hiding in the shadows, was shocked, Xueyan had been operating in Qi Country for many years, but he didn't expect that even Mrs. Lan's subordinates would have their people!
Originally, Lu Yunzhou also planned to tell his second brother Qi Ting what he saw tonight, and asked him to bring troops to end the stronghold of Blood Swallow, but now it seems that he is afraid that there will be people in the city defense army of Linzi, and it is very likely that there will be people from Blood Swallow!
Even if Qi Ting only led the Qi family soldiers to act, it was inevitable that the news would be leaked due to some actions.
It seems that this matter can only be figured out by Lu Yunzhou himself!
