King Dingbei's snoring soon rang out in the bedroom.

Xu Yi closed the door for a while, but he didn't know where to go.

If it's okay on weekdays, it only takes half a day to get from Jiyang City to Jiangzhou City.

But now the road is blocked by floods, and it will take at least two days to get to Jiangzhou City!

Two days!

The daylilies are cold.

But now there is no other way.

Xu Yi quietly walked out of the City Lord's Mansion and began to wander the streets.

In fact, he was always on the lookout for carrier pigeons.

Everything that can be eaten in troubled times is basically eaten, not to mention carrier pigeons, not even a pheasant can be found!

Fortunately, the emperor paid off, and Xu Yi finally saw the carrier pigeon kept in the house at the door of a store.

"There is salvation!" Xu Yi smiled and rushed into the store, suppressing the surprise: "Boss, how to sell this carrier pigeon!" ”

"What do you want this for? Don't sell it, don't sell it, it's our owner's pet! ”

The shopkeeper saw that he was dressed ordinarily, and he didn't expect to be a rich man, so he simply waved his hand impatiently to chase away the customer: "I'm hungry, I dare to worry about anything!" ”

"Boss! I really want to buy it, and you can open it at any price! As long as I can get it! Xu Yi really needs this carrier pigeon, the man's eyes were red all the year round in the frontier, he clenched his fists and softened his voice: "Boss, you can help ask, accommodating!" ”

"Do you really have silver?" The shopkeeper looked him up and down a few times, with disdain in his eyes.

Seeing that he was shaken, Xu Yi hurriedly took out a few silver tickets from his chest: "Five hundred taels!" ”

The king of Dingbei has always been generous, and these guards who followed the king of Dingbei all had a lot of silver taels on hand.

If they want to, they can leave at any time and become a squire, but this group of guards is as affectionate and righteous as the king of Dingbei, so for so many years, they have been following the king of Dingbei.

Five hundred taels is not a small amount in these troubled times.

The shopkeeper's eyes lit up all of a sudden, and he put down the abacus in his hand: "Wait!" ”

After saying that, he ran to the backyard with a puff of smoke.

Xu Yi stood nervously in front of the counter and waited, I don't know how long it took, the shopkeeper finally ran back happily, and he stretched out three fingers.

Xu Yi's eyes lit up: "Three taels of silver? ”

Usually, a carrier pigeon is sold for a few hundred yuan, and the carrier pigeon that has been trained to the top, or those specially used to block birds, will be sold for a few taels of silver.

The old god of the shopkeeper shook his head.

Xu Yi scratched his head: "Thirty taels? ”

The shopkeeper sneered: "Think about it clearly, what kind of world is now, what we do business is about you and me, I will put it here at a fixed price today, three hundred taels, do you buy it or not?" ”

Three hundred taels!

Three hundred taels can be enough for an ordinary family for more than ten years.

Three hundred taels will make him bloody and kill the enemy on the frontier for five whole years!

Xu Yi's face instantly turned pale: "You are taking advantage of the fire to rob!" ”

"We have all said, doing business is about your love, I hope you can't take out the silver, let's not do this business, anyway, it's not us who need pigeons, you think about it yourself."

The shopkeeper sneered disdainfully.

He saw that this pigeon was extremely important to Xu Yi, so he dared to ask for such a price.

Xu Yi stood in place and was stunned for a long time.

Many images flashed through his mind.

But that thing was really too important to him.

If...... There is no point in keeping him alive either.

"Buy!" Xu Yi gritted his teeth and handed over three silver tickets.

The shopkeeper's eyes were smiling, he happily lit the silver ticket, and sighed: "From the capital?" It's good to always let it go, come here to suffer! ”

The carrier pigeon stood spiritually in the cage, Xu Yi ignored the shopkeeper, took the pigeon, and turned his head to leave.

Behind him, King Dingbei frowned and touched his chin: "Spend three hundred taels to buy a pigeon, just to ventilate the news?" ”

Who can make a brave and loyal general like Xu Yi willingly betray him.

King Dingbei still feels that Xu Yi has a hard time in his heart, but this does not change the fact that he is no longer the same Xu Yi as before.

King Dingbei sighed leisurely, took a shortcut and returned to the City Lord's Mansion one step in advance, and lay on the bed with his clothes again and pretended to sleep.

Xu Yi hid the pigeon in his sleeve, he came to the door of Dingbei King for the first time, put his ear to the door frame and listened carefully.

The snoring of King Dingbei was as good as ever, and Xu Yi breathed a sigh of relief.

He returned to the room that the city lord Xu had arranged for them to guard, and several of his brothers also fell asleep.

Xu Yi cautiously came to the desk, picked up the pen, and wrote laboriously.

He didn't know how to read before, but after following the king of Dingbei for so long, when the king of Dingbei was forced to read, he also learned a few words.

The handwriting on the paper was crooked, and when the ink dried, Xu Yi carefully blew the paper, and stuffed the remaining two silver tickets into the letterbox.

The pigeon fluttered its wings and flew away, Xu Yi stared at the figure of the pigeon for a long time, with a relieved face.

Outside the door, King Dingbei, who was squatting under the corner of the wall, continued to touch his chin: "Who is he sending a message to?" No, no, this king has to go and see! ”

The pigeon flies very fast, but the king of Dingbei is known as the wolf of the northwest, which is not in vain!

I saw that his fingers bent, and with a loud sound, a stone slammed into the pigeon.

The carrier pigeon fluttered its wings, but in the end it still couldn't stabilize its body and fell headlong.

The king of Dingbei stretched out his hand to take it, and the pigeon fell into his hand instantly: "Let this king see, for whom did Xu Yi, this kid betray this king!" ”

However, as soon as King Dingbei opened the letterbox, he was directly dumbfounded.

"What is this?"

Two crooked words on the paper, wait for me.

The ugly words are worse than their own words.

If it weren't for the fact that King Dingbei had experience in this area, he wouldn't even be able to guess what these two words were written.

"What are you waiting for him?" Could it be a code that you don't know?

But no matter what the code is, just destroy it first!

As for the two hundred taels of silver.

King Dingbei really couldn't understand why Xu Yi wanted to put the silver ticket in.

The more he thought about it, the more irritated he felt, and King Dingbei hesitated a few times, but in the end he still deducted the note and stuffed the silver ticket back.

He muttered to himself: "Maybe it's some code, but two codes, one of which was destroyed by this king, they shouldn't be able to connect together." ”

The carrier pigeon flew away again, but the king of Dingbei held the note, and he couldn't be happy.

He walked back with heavy steps, and at this time, on the other side, in the warehouse of the City Lord's Mansion, there were a few small rats, who were arguing with their voices.

Yan Ci 9: "Move the brown rice here first, and don't move the polished rice." ”

"Are you stupid? There is so much polished rice, and the dog surnamed Xu hides it here and doesn't give it to the victims! ”
