When Han Mu said this, he had a joking smile on his face, but his little eyes couldn't help but look at her secretly.

Gu Junruo's face burned slightly, and he didn't know if it was a brain twitch or something, so he replied directly: "Yes, otherwise what do you think I am for?" ”

Han Mu's heart was beating violently, the smile on his face was dull, and he looked at her in a daze.

She confessed, she confessed, she actually confessed!

Xiaobei and Xiaochan both looked at him a little nervously, Xiaobei clenched his fists and secretly cheered, up, up, don't be afraid!

Xiaochan was also very nervous, but she was disdainful, and couldn't help muttering: "It's our young lady who said it first, and my uncle is too cowardly." ”

Han Mu couldn't hear any other sound in his ears, he clenched his fists a little nervously, looked down at Gu Junruo's smiling face and was about to respond, a shout interrupted him, "My lord, my lord-"

Han Mu turned his head expressionlessly and looked at Ding Si who was rushing towards him.

Xiaobei and Xiaochan also turned their heads, staring at Ding Si who suddenly ran out menacingly, and even the soldiers on the side couldn't help but complain.

Ding Si felt the murderous aura, his footsteps paused, he first looked left and right suspiciously, but didn't find anything abnormal, and hurriedly stepped forward to report, "My lord, I found the mark left by Changgui on the side of the road ahead, and the mark is a bit strange." ”

"What's weird?" Han Mu went to see him.

The officials of the county government have their own set of communication methods, just like in the army.

Ding Si led them to see a large rock on the side of the road, half of which was covered by vines, and on the other side there was a sign that was almost invisible.

Han Mu looked confused, "What can this sign represent?" ”

Ding Si pulled away half of the vines, and a few people saw that there were still marks on the part covered by the vines, and there were quite a few, three of them.

Ding Si pointed to the explanations marked one by one, "This is the beginning, Changgui and they should be chasing Chen Jian in this direction, and this direction is Zhaojia Village." ”

"This is the second one, he chased the target and came back, met on this road, and went in that direction."

Everyone looked in the direction he pointed, and then they saw that there was actually a path overgrown with weeds.

Immediately, a soldier stepped forward to check, and after a while, he said, "There are traces of trampling." ”

"The strange thing is that the third mark, this direction points to the front, or the direction of Zhaojia Village, but it carries a danger signal, everyone is going in that direction, why is Zhaojia Village still dangerous?"

Han Mu frowned, "Didn't you finish?" ”

"But there are marks on it, Chen Jian brought eleven people when he went to Zhaojia Village, and he also brought eleven people when he met on this road."

Han Mu stared at the polygonal symbol he pointed to, a very small lump, written on a line, if he hadn't pointed it out, he would have thought that it was a curved line when drawing a line because the stone was uneven.

Han Mu rubbed his forehead, "This is the symbol you agreed upon, is it right?" ”

Ding Si said confidently: "Absolutely! ”

Han Mu groaned, "Arrest Chen Jian first, only if he is caught, it will be possible to uproot Chen Guo's fine work in Yi County, and there may be hidden in other places in the Great Zhou." ”

Listening to the confessions of the three killers, Chen Jian's identity is not low, and he will leave Yixian every year to go to other places, obviously he has not only planted a fine work in Yixian.

Gu Junruo also felt that it was more important to arrest Chen Jian, but, "If you arrest someone, it won't be of much use for me to go, it's better for us to divide the soldiers into two ways, I'll go to Zhaojia Village to have a look, you go to arrest people, and then go to Zhaojia Village to find me when you arrest people." ”

Han Mu was also afraid that she would be in danger, and the killers around Chen Jian were not weak, although he was confident that he could protect her, he was not afraid of ten thousand.

So he immediately nodded, "Okay, you go to Zhaojia Village to wait for me, no, Zhaojia Village is in danger!" ”

Han Mu finally remembered that something was wrong, frowned and stared at the mark on the stone, "Zhaojia Village is in danger. ”

"But it doesn't say what the danger is, and it's precisely because Zhaojia Village is in danger that I need to go even more," Gu Junruo said: "Chen Jian wants to arrest it, and it is urgent to do so, and we can't ignore the people of Zhaojia Village, so we must divide the troops into two ways." ”

Han Mu pursed his lips and didn't persuade again, he is the county commander of Yixian County, and it is his duty to protect the people of Yixian County, if Gu Jun is his wife, he naturally has a responsibility.

You can't know that Zhaojia Village is in danger and abandon them, right?

Han Mu thought for a while, and said to Ding Si: "You take a soldier to escort your wife to Zhaojia Village, be cautious, if there are too many opponents in the village, hide first and go back to the county government to rescue the soldiers." ”

He looked at Gu Junruo, "Don't take any chances. ”

Gu Junruo bowed, "Don't worry, I know the truth that the son of a daughter can't sit down." ”

Both of them guessed that the danger Changgui said might be that there were people left by Chen Jian in Zhaojia Village, and there might be a lot.

Therefore, as long as they quietly investigate, hide first when they find danger, and go back to the county seat to move the rescue troops, then it should not be a big problem.

Han Mu repeatedly advised, "Don't act rashly when you find Chen Guoren, you must pay attention to safety." ”

Gu Junruo nodded and waved him to hurry up.

When they were far away, she looked in the direction of Zhaojia Village and covered the marks on the stones, "Let's go, be faster, maybe we can reach Zhaojia Village before sunset." ”

"Yes."

Han Mu left the horse to Gu Junruo, she turned over on the horse, kicked the horse's belly and trotted, and everyone followed and galloped forward.

The rest of the road is very quiet, this road is said to be an official road, in fact, it is also overgrown with weeds, only the rut is a slightly flat dirt road, and there are weeds in the middle, and the horse steps on the grass forward, and the speed is quite fast.

It's just that it's so quiet, not only is there not a single person along the way, but even the birds seem to be calling less than elsewhere.

The closer to Zhaojia Village, the more strange this quietness became, Gu Junruo restrained the horse, Ding Si also felt uneasy, and the soldiers who followed were even more so, Shi Chang took the initiative to say: "Madam, I'll take someone to the front to investigate first." ”

Gu Junruo nodded, "Okay." ”

Shi Chang immediately took two people to take the first step, Gu Junruo and them were one step behind, but they still headed towards Zhaojia Village.

After walking for about a quarter of an hour, they saw the houses in Zhaojia Village from a distance, as well as the smoke from the stove......

Gu Junruo frowned, staring at the few cigarettes and frowning, his intuition was not quite right, "Is it time to cook?" ”

Ding Si glanced at the hour and said to Gu Junruo: "Now the sun goes down late, and dinner is late, and it is the time for weeding and fertilizing in the field, so it is generally not so early." ”

Gu Junruo tightened the rope, and the cooking time of each family in the village was actually about the same, so every time the cooking smoke floated, it was a dozen or twenty together.

And the smoke is not that big.

Could it be that Zhaojiacun really fell into the hands of Chen Guo quietly?

But it's Qi that is closer here.

Gu Junruo frowned, and simply dismounted: "Let's go, let's avoid the news in the forest first." ”

"Yes."
