Dozens of guards drew their swords at the same time, with a solemn expression on their faces.
A knight on a red horse came after him, dressed in a gray coarse linen coat and dressed as a groom.
Ding Yuanlang frowned, and said to himself: "How could it be him, is there really an accident?"
He commanded as he hit his horse: "You stay here and do not move, the helmsman himself comes forward to inquire." ”
After the horse galloped a few dozen paces, the two met, and he lowered his voice and asked, "What's the situation?"
The man dressed as a groom said in an anxious tone: "As soon as you left, Hall Master Feng asked me to prepare my horse, and ordered the guards to prepare for departure, and go with him to the garrison of the Eastern Thief General. ”
Ding Yuanlang frowned: "Do you know what the person surnamed Feng is talking about when he goes to see the thief?"
The man shook his head and said, "I don't know, but the surnamed Feng whispered after getting on the horse, saying that this time it must be a great achievement, I don't know what you told him, but I am sure that he is going to find a thief to tell the adult." ”
Ding Yuanlang chuckled in his heart, no wonder he always felt that Feng Xingxian was wrong, it turned out that he had become a traitor, and once he told the thief the truth, these people, including Ye Yunyang, Ge Zhengliang and himself, would have to die.

"How long have they been gone?" he asked again.
The groom replied, "About a quarter of an hour." ”
This person was placed by Feng Xingxian's side a while ago, and he was responsible for finding out Feng Xingxian's details, but he didn't expect it to come in handy so soon, if he hadn't come to report the news, he would still be kept in the dark.
He took a deep breath: "If you go after it now, you should be able to catch up, and you will return to Zhendong Hall immediately, as if nothing had happened." ”
Ma Fu said with some worry: "Why don't I follow you to chase the surnamed Feng, one more person has more strength, there are forty or fifty guards he leads, which is higher than your guard specifications, even if you can catch up, you may not be able to leave him behind." ”
Ding Yuanlang shook his head: "One more of you won't make much difference, I will try my best to take the method of sneak attack and kill the surnamed Feng at the first time, but when the time comes, I will escape from Nanshan single-handedly, and I will not affect the people who stay here." ”
The groom nodded: "Alright then, you be careful. ”
Ding Yuanlang waved his hand to the guards dozens of meters away, they quickly rushed over, and he ordered: "Brothers, there is a very tricky matter that we need to deal with at the moment, if you don't make it, you will have to lose your lives, if you don't want to go, you can leave now, I Ding someone will never force it." ”
Forty guards made a statement together: "I am willing to follow Master Ding, and I will not hesitate to go up the knife mountain and go down to the oil pot." ”
Ding Yuanlang was very pleased and said: "Okay, then follow the helmsman to chase a team of people, and I will tell you how to do it when the time comes, go!"
"Yes!"
More than ten miles in front of them, Feng Xingxian pointed to the path next to the main road and said, "Let's take the small road, we can save an hour." ”
The team turned to the path together, and ran towards the camp of the eastern thief without slowing down.
Twenty minutes later, Ding Yuanlang led his team to this place, and he found that the horse's hoof prints that had followed all the way were gone, and a subordinate who was good at tracking pointed to the path and said, "Helmsman, they are taking this road." ”
Ding Yuanlang beat the drum in his heart, he was not very familiar with the terrain of this generation, and he could barely get lost by chasing along the main road, but if he changed the path, no one dared to guarantee what would happen. Since the other party abandons the main road and takes the small road, it means that the small road will be relatively close, and if you still chase along the main road, you will definitely not be able to catch up.
"Is there a problem with changing the path?" he asked the man.
The man groaned for a moment, nodded and said, "I promise that there is no problem, we will still follow the horseshoe prints, and as long as there is no big river ahead, we will not lose them." ”
"Okay, keep chasing, pick up the speed. Ding Yuanlang gritted his teeth and said.
Half an hour later, a shallow river dozens of meters wide crossed in front of them, and together with the rocky river beaches on both banks, the total width was more than a mile, and no trace could be found after barely wading through the river.
As the minutes passed, Ding Yuanlang was anxious, and his subordinates searched carefully and found a narrow road in an inconspicuous place, with clear horseshoe prints on it.
Although they had found the right direction, they had already been delayed here for more than ten minutes, and the possibility of catching up with Feng Xingxian was further compressed.
Ding Yuanlang's face sank like water, and he kept urging everyone to speed up, but the path was narrow and rugged, and many places could only be ridden by one person, so it was not easy to accelerate.
But he still refused to give up, until he was less than ten miles away from the camp of the Eastern Thief King, he still couldn't see Feng Xingxian in his sight, and his heart fell to the bottom. He explained in a deep voice: "If you can't catch up after a while, don't go back to Rongyiru, go directly to Ge Zhengliang, the owner of Xingping Rudder, and tell him that I will definitely keep my mouth shut, and he will know what to do, remember to stay in Xingping Rudder, and never return to Rongyirudder, have you remembered?"
Everyone said in unison, "Remember." ”
With the last bit of hope to continue to chase forward, he no longer believed that he could stop Feng Xingxian before he entered the camp, the only hope was that the eastern thief would not be in the station, so that there was still a glimmer of life, he could sneak in and kill the surnamed Feng, break through if he could break through, and if he couldn't break through, he would cut himself off.
Of course, he knew very well that this was a good wish, and if it was confirmed that Feng Xingxian had seen the thief general, he would flee north as soon as possible.
After walking three miles further, he saw a number of people in front of him, as if something had happened.
When he went up to check with trepidation, he was surprised to see Feng Xingxian and the guards lying on the ground, their deaths extremely hideous, they were all poisoned by the highly poisonous blow arrow in the neck.
He told his subordinates not to approach, and he immediately stepped forward and asked, "What's going on, isn't this Hall Master Feng, how could he die here?"
The highest ranking of the group of people surrounding the dead body was a captain, and seeing Ding Yuanlang wearing the badge of the helmsman on his chest, he replied respectfully: "We don't know what's going on, an hour ago, the brothers on the lookout saw a team of people coming, and then they saw them fall off their horses, and they felt that something was wrong and reported to the Lord of the Incense on duty, and the Lord of the Incense sent me to check, and when I arrived here, I found out that it was the Lord of the Feng Hall." ”
Ding Yuanlang carefully observed each dead corpse, everyone died with a flying needle in the neck, this flying needle is a blow arrow used by the Nanban poison witch, which can put dozens of people to death at the same time, at least dozens of blow barrels must be fired together, ordinary poison witches can't accurately hit people who are running on horseback.
Ding Yuanlang wondered in his heart, why did the other party kill Feng Xingxian, if it was a vendetta, it would be too coincidental, right? But if it was to help him solve the trouble, who did it?
With doubts, he left the scene quietly and rushed to Xingping with his subordinates.
Ge Zhengliang was already in a hurry, he knew that Ding Yuanlang went to find Feng Xingxian today, if the awakening mission was successful, Ding Yuanlang would come back to resume his life, according to the time calculation, he should have appeared two hours ago, but there was no one until now.
Ye Yunyang said in a calm tone: "Lord Ge Helm is a little restless, Lord Ding Helm is a person with a stable personality, there should be no problems." ”
Ge Zhengliang sat down and said: "I'm not worried about Lao Ding, but worried about the surname Feng, all kinds of signs indicate that he has the intention of rebellion, if he attacks Lao Ding on the spot, the matter will be serious, and we will be uprooted." ”
Ye Yunyang frowned: "It's not that serious, even if Lord Ding Helm is subdued by him, he won't confess to us, I believe he can do this." ”
Ge Zhengliang shook his head: "Lao Ding doesn't confess, we don't mean that those people can't find out, they will first investigate people who are close to Lao Ding, me, Wei Chengwu and Jin Changyi will all be listed as suspects, with the foundation of the three of us here and their own wit, it is not a problem to get rid of suspicion, but the other party is not stupid, and will definitely do everything possible to sabotage our plan, causing our years of hard work to be in vain." ”
At this time, a voice sounded outside the door: "Third child, it turns out that you don't have confidence in me, nor do you have no confidence in yourself, but you are worried that the plan will fail." ”
Ge Zhengliang's face was happy: "The boss is back." ”
Ding Yuanlang walked in with a dusty face, and Ge Zhengliang let out a sigh: "You are finally back, do you know how worried I and the envoy are, it seems that the surname Feng has already been done." ”
Ding Yuanlang shook his head: "It didn't work, and as we were worried, he had betrayed the Han and was willing to be a thief in the southern mountains, he promised to be good on the surface, but as soon as I left, he couldn't wait to find the eastern thief to tell the informant, so dangerous." ”
"What, what the hell is going on?" Ge Zhengliang asked, and Ye Yunyang was also anxious to know the answer.
"Here's the thing......" Ding Yuanlang repeated the details.
After listening to his words, Ye Yunyang and Ge Zhengliang glanced at each other, and both swallowed a mouthful of saliva at the same time, the one surnamed Feng really became a traitor, but who killed him at a critical moment?
The three of them began to analyze, listing various possibilities, but all of them were denied one by one.
Like Ding Yuanlang, they don't quite believe that Feng Xingxian is just in time for the vendetta, for those of them who are lurkers, the so-called coincidence is simply a kind of self-deception, if they believe in the coincidence, it is impossible to live in the thief's den until now, let alone get mixed up like a fish in water.
At this moment, Jin Changyi broke in in a rage and said to Ding Yuanlang: "Big brother, you are too uninteresting, since you sent a killer to help Yuan Xingbang get rid of the disobedient subordinates, why don't you tell me in advance, I also sent a killer without knowing it, and the killer came back and said that the target person had been killed." ”
Ding Yuanlang raised his eyebrows: "I didn't send a killer." ”
Jin Changyi slapped him on the shoulder: "It's not who you are, but the killer you sent is much smarter than what I was looking for, killing people with highly poisonous blow arrows, why didn't I think of it." ”
"It's really not me, I've been focusing on Feng Xingxian these days, where will I have time to care about Yuan Xingbang's affairs. Ding Yuanlang's eyes suddenly widened: "Second brother, what did you just say, you said that Yuan Xingbang's men died from poisonous blow arrows, is it a blow arrow used by poisonous witches?"
Jin Changyi saw that he was not joking, nodded and said: "It was the poisonous witch blowing the arrow, the two incense masters of the white horse rudder and a school captain were shot in the neck by a poisonous needle during the banquet, and the three died on the spot, Yuan Xingbang took the opportunity to install his cronies, and he has firmly grasped the power of the white horse rudder in his hands, if nothing else, the people who opposed him before will swear allegiance to him." ”
Ye Yun raised his brows and frowned, this was too strange.
