Chapter 176: I met an acquaintance again
Regarding the sudden disappearance of Hua Wushang, Liu Zhengjing didn't dare to think about it, and every time he thought about it, he felt empty. Maybe I haven't deliberately looked for Hua Wushang in the past three years, and there are also psychological factors at work.
"Why did this Shakou Town suddenly increase its troops, is there any news?" Liu Zhengjing asked about the information of Shakou Town by the way, the three northeastern states and Daqin have been fighting, but there has been basically no war in the direction of Shennu Prefecture in the past three years.
Daqin couldn't see the face of the Shennu State cavalry at all, even if there were occasional troops who wanted to make war merits to enter the Shennu State, they would be surrounded and eaten by the elusive grassland cavalry, and once a large force entered, they would be forced back by the primitive and effective ancient weapon of mines. There are also heavy losses if they can't get heads.
Moreover, the strategy of Great Qin has always advocated the maintenance of stability in the direction of the Goddess State, and I wish that the Goddess State would not cause trouble to them, so the past three years have been the same as Liu Zhengjing estimated at the beginning, and they have been peaceful.
Now the town of Shakou is suddenly under martial law, which is somewhat abnormal.
Sun Fangfang said: "I know that according to the officers on the inspection mission, this time it was someone from above, chasing and killing a fugitive, not targeting merchants, but this time the person who came was valuable, and the local bureaucrats had to tighten trade inspections." ”
Liu Zhengjing was a little puzzled, "What fugitive, is there any news?" ”
"It is said that he is a heinous traitor of the Warlock Association, it seems that his name is Hu Zhe, and his specific identity is not clear."
Warlock Guild, Hochul?
Liu Zhengjing felt that this name was a little familiar, and he remembered who this person was, when the Nine Trials were held, there was only one person from the Warlock Association, and it was Hu Zhe.
The children of the Nine Trials of that time, all those who could be called elites, had a reason to die, and this Hochul seemed to have a story.
Only four people survived the Nine Trials, Jiang Qiancao, Qin Zhi, Jiang Zhan, and this Ho Zhe.
Now this Hochul has become a fugitive again, which is a bit interesting.
"Do you need me to check it out?"
"No need, it's none of our business if the dog eats the dog." He didn't want to cause more trouble, now that the Hundred Flowers Society had all gone underground, since this matter involved Hu Zhe, it also involved the core disciples of the Nine Sects, so there was no need to risk being targeted to investigate irrelevant things.
"Arrange a place for us to stay and rest here tonight."
Sun Fangfang looked at Liu Zhengjing and the three of them, and stopped talking.
"One suite is all it takes." Liu Zhengjing is used to it, Xiao Qiao doesn't sleep if he doesn't coax, and Zhou Yiyao doesn't know when she starts and has to squeeze with them, which makes Liu Zhengjing not easy in the past three years.
Otherwise, he may really can't help but revisit Xiao Qiao, without him, just a normal man, who coaxes a flower girl who is beautiful and fragrant all day long, and Ren Juncai can't do it.
The next day, Liu Zhengjing and his two daughters came to the convoy early and waited for departure.
Tongjiao was disappointed to see the three of them, and Tongling was very happy.
The convoy drove into the desolate and ancient Xisha Road on the rising platform.
The weather is clear, with views of the high mountains on both sides of Saisha Road, as well as the desolate neighbours, oases and scattered villages.
Although Xisha Road is a mountain road, it is also compared to the Shennuzhou Plateau and the Western Plateau, the middle mountain road is not narrow, the narrowest place is several kilometers, and the widest can be nearly 100 kilometers.
After the convoy traveled for most of the day, it repaired next to a hut, where there were also several restaurants and guesthouses, and the convoy did not go to spend money, because the charges for the supply points on the half of the road were as expensive as the sky.
Liu Zhengjing and the three of them also got out of the car to repair it, and spent three Daqin coins to go to the public toilet. The reason why it is so expensive is that it is willing to fight and suffer, which is specially used by rich people, and most drivers solve it on the spot, but Xiao Qiao and Zhou Yiyao are not very convenient.
Tong Ling was reluctant to spend a hundred Qin coins just to go to the toilet, and walked towards the woods not far away, Tong Jiao helped to look at the wind, and looked at Liu Zhengjing several times.
Liu Zhengjing pretended not to see the eyes of the copper horn, and looked down on people, his two big beauties, he didn't want to peek.
Suddenly, there was a scream from the copper bell in the woods, and the copper horn jumped into the forest vigorously in a few jumps. In the realm of a high-grade samurai, he and his sister are both warriors, and Tongling is a low-grade samurai.
The other men also rushed into the woods, these men were all warriors, and there were two samurai, and the others were all martial artists.
The caravan that dares to run this line can't have any strength.
Liu Zhengjing and the three of them also slowly entered Shunlin to check the situation.
Brass Bell was looking frightened and red, and the others searched the woods with weapons.
Someone peeked at her peeing.
Liu Zhengjing was speechless for a while, he really has a good mouthful.
The forest is not big, but more than 20 people have been looking for a long time and have not found anyone.
"Sister, are you mistaken?"
"No, there is indeed a Taoist figure...... It's in this meadow. After saying that, his face turned red again.
Liu Zhengjing glanced at it, and the grass that the copper bell pointed to had a human-shaped clearing, and there were water stains next to it.
The corners of Liu Zhengjing's mouth twitched, it doesn't necessarily mean that people want to peek at you, maybe people are lying on their stomachs, you are forced to wash people's faces, right?
With a move in his heart, Liu Zhengjing slowly approached Zhou Yiyao and Xiao Qiao, opened a musical instrument box in his hand, and took out a long instrument, this instrument is called bassoon, which is one and a half meters long.
He handed the big pipe to Little Joe, "Little Joe, look and see if anyone is playing hide and seek in this woods." ”
It's certainly not a musical instrument, and there's a baguette hidden in it. In the past three years, Liu Zhengjing has also taken great pains to prevent Xiao Qiao from abandoning his cultivation, and has tried every means to let her cultivate.
Xiao Qiao's eyes lit up, he took the big tube, put his fingers into the tube and closed his eyes, and the spiritual elements began to diffuse.
After a while, Xiao Qiao opened his eyes, with some doubts in his eyes, "There are elemental fluctuations here, why haven't you found anyone?" ”
As he spoke, his slender hand stroked the big pipe in a ring.
Liu Zhengjing looked at her movements full of black lines, "Qiao, we don't care about masturbation......" was accidentally learned something indecent by her.
It's hard to take children nowadays.
"You look again and see if there are any unusual flowers and trees or something?" Liu Zhengjing taught in a low voice.
Little Joe closed his eyes again, and after a few seconds, he opened them, "Found it." ”
"Stab him." Liu Zhengcheng said.
Xiao Qiao held the big pipe, and with a slight force, Liu Zhengjing's powerful hearing heard a muffled snort, and following the sound, a figure fell from a tree not far away, and it didn't move when it landed.
This alarmed the people in the woods, and the copper horn rushed over with the guy, punching and kicking, but was stopped by the copper bell.
"Stop fighting, he seems to have passed out." Copper Bell is a little embarrassed, after all...... People have also suffered unjustified disasters.
Liu Zhengjing looked at the movement in the distance and asked in a low voice, "Are you using too much force?" ”
Xiao Qiao shook his head again and again, "It's just that we usually play games so lightly......"
Liu Zhengjing slowly approached with another musical instrument case in his hand, and looked through the crowd, and the person lying on the ground was Hu Zhe, who Daozhou had seen.
At this moment, Hochul's face was pale, his hair was messy, and there were several wounds on his body, which looked very badly injured.
This Hochul was also unlucky enough, probably hiding in the grass to avoid pursuit, but he didn't expect to be smacked in the face.
His hair is still wet, and Liu Zhengzheng's nose is very smart, and he is really hammered.
"He was badly injured...... Brother, what about the medicine? Tongling didn't know whether he was kind-hearted or guilty, and he wanted to save him.
Tong Jiao was indifferent, and said solemnly: "The injuries on this person's body are not simple, there are fire and gunshot wounds, I'm afraid it's a trouble." Let's go, let's leave it alone. ”
Tongling was very stubborn and insisted on saving, and a person carrying Hu Zhe, who had fainted, walked towards the convoy, and did not listen to Tongjiao's advice.
Liu Zhengjing looked at this scene and felt that this girl was a good person, when they wanted to take a ride, it was also this girl who saw Liu Zhengjing and the two girls were pitiful and soft-hearted and agreed.
Tongjiao was worried about the trouble, so he asked the convoy to leave early, and Hochul was put on the lead car.
The back of this kind of large truck has basically been converted into a bed, which is convenient for the driver to rest in shifts, and it is also wide.
Liu Zhengjing and the three of them did not have any extraneous branches, and got into the car behind them with the intention of watching the play.
He felt the convoy was in trouble.
Sure enough, the convoy stopped after less than half an hour. Liu Zhengjing poked his head out and saw six off-road vehicles in front of him, three in a row, blocking the road tightly and facing him.
The vehicle on the opposite side stopped, and a group of gun-wielding Daqin soldiers walked down, waving their hands to signal the caravan to stop for inspection.
Tongjiao got out of the car and respectfully greeted him. Liu Zhengjing heard Tongjiao say politely from a distance: "Several chiefs, we are a caravan of the Northwest Group, and there is nothing contraband." As he spoke, he shoved something into the officer's hand.
Unexpectedly, the officer had a righteous face and shook off the hand of the copper horn, "No matter what the group, you have to stop and check." Then he waved his hand inexplicably for the sergeants to go and check.
A hint of panic flashed in Copper Horn's eyes.
More than two dozen sergeants walked to the convoy. The officer walked to the head car himself, and Tongjiao's face was sweating. Tongling sat in the car, looked at the officer who opened the door, and showed a polite smile, "Sir, there is no one in the car, it's all some bedding." ”
The officer ignored the copper bell and said coldly, "Get out of the car!" ”
Tong Ling's face was ugly, and he looked at Tong Jiao, who shook his head slightly. Copper Bell had to get out of the car.
The officer got into the van, looked at the back of the cab, and then jumped out of the cab and fired several shots into the sky, "Found it!" Get ready for battle! ”
The sound of loading bullets was continuous, and the group of sergeants quickly lowered everyone in the convoy to the ground, and the movements were crisp and neat.
This group of sergeants is a samurai at the lowest level!
Liu Zhengjing squatted down with Xiao Qiao Zhou Yiyao at the beginning, holding his head and not moving, but he was not targeted.
All the sergeants took control of the rest of the convoy and pointed their guns at the lead car.
Two more people stepped out of the off-road vehicle in front.
Liu Zheng smiled, another acquaintance, Jiang Zhan.
Interesting, is this considered a narrow road? I didn't expect there to be a windfall.
