Chapter 213: Stratagem
After applying gold sore medicine and bandaging it simply, Li Fenglan continued to row. It's getting late, so I'm going to have to hurry back.
The wind was blowing, there was some wind and waves on the lake, and the boat was not moving steadily. This was not comfortable for Tang Bailing, but right now, the time on the ship was much more solid than his previous life. Having a friend who is true to oneself turns out to be this feeling.
Tan Wushuang had been waiting impatiently on the shore for a long time, and once wanted to drive back to Jiulian Village. When he saw Li Fenglan and Tang Bailing, his hanging heart fell back into his stomach.
On the streets of Hewu Town, Tan Wushuang carried Tang Bailing on his back and ran wildly, and Li Fenglan followed them. Tang Bailing, who was lying on Tan Wushuang's back, felt that his back was still a little wider and comfortable to lie on his stomach, and Li Fenglan's back was a little panicked.
When I returned to the house, it was already the middle of the night, Li Fenglan helped Tang Bailing change his clothes and medicine, and Tang Bailing had already fallen asleep. But the two of them didn't dare to sleep to death, and their identities had been exposed, in case someone killed them.
It wasn't until the third day of the day that they thought there would be no more danger, so they could take a break for a while.
Tang Bailing slept for a long time and only opened his eyes in the afternoon.
She leaned sideways on the head of the bed and said weakly, "Someone behind Jiulian Village should have signaled them to do this."
Li Fenglan asked, "Why are you so sure?"
"What about the two arrows?"
Li Fenglan patted her head: "I was too flustered last night, I was pulled on the boat." Fat Tan, you go and get it back."
Tang Bailing shook his head: "No need, I've seen those two arrows, they are one bow."
Li Fenglan was alert: "It seems that ...... Yeyu Xiaozhu intervened, but I don't know if they know that the person behind Futaba Village is me."
"Unsure...... But one thing is certain."
"What's the matter?"
"Xu Zhenbiao is still alive."
Li Fenglan nodded: "That's right, it seems that the mastermind behind the scenes has realized the danger, so he asked Ye Yu Xiaozhu to protect him. At least that's right for me to come to Jiujiang this time, but ...... My identity has been revealed, and I have to find a way to solve the current matter quickly."
"Don't rush in, they're prepared, and your current plan may be self-defeating."
"I know, but sometimes I have to be a little aggressive."
"What are you going to do?"
Li Fenglan thought for a little and said it like this.
…
In Qingyuan Town, Jiujiang, a man dressed in a scholar's son's clothes stood facing the window, looking at the endless lake, and the hand behind his back kept shaking the folding fan. A subordinate, dressed in a strong suit, walked up behind him, clenched his fists and said, "Mr. Chen, they have returned to Hewu Town."
After a long silence, the scholar said to himself: "The chess is one step away...... I'm in a hurry...... Where do they live in Riverwood?"
"Before the little ones could follow, they were stopped."
"How many?"
"Alone."
"Alone? Is your martial arts very high?"
"Yes, the swordsmanship is very powerful, she is a woman, she wears a red dress, her face is covered by a veil, and she can't see her appearance clearly."
"Tsk," he seemed a little distressed, "Li Fenglan, Li Fenglan, don't really force me to kill you." Spread everyone out, put a few stakes around Riverwood, and try not to get into trouble with anyone, and don't make any moves."
"Yes, my subordinates understand."
The subordinate exited the room, and Chen Ziju let out a long sigh of relief.
Li Fenglan has constraints, why shouldn't she?
Now, a small Poyang Lake, so many people have come in at once, and everyone seems to have a ghost in their hearts. He really wanted to cut through the mess quickly and remove all those uncertain factors.
It's a pity that you can't do that.
…
The houses in Hewu Town were empty, and the three people who were secretly stared at by the two forces disappeared without a trace overnight.
In a thatched hut on the edge of Poyang Lake, Tang Bailing was lying on the wooden bed with a pale face, and Tan Wushuang boiled some decoction and was pushing the door in.
"Sister Bailing, drink the medicine." As he spoke, he helped Tang Bailing up.
Tang Bailing coughed twice, took the medicine in Tan Wu's hands tremblingly, took a sip, and asked, "Where is Miss Li?"
Tan Wushuang shook his head: "I don't know, I went out early in the morning, and I wasn't allowed to follow."
"You Miss Li, you're still too soft-hearted."
Tan Wushuang said: "Actually, Li Fenglan, although she is naughty and has a lot of ghost ideas, she has no bad intentions, and she can be regarded as affectionate and righteous. I know why she didn't take me with her, just because she was afraid that something would happen to me and you."
"You're not afraid of something happening to her?"
"I'm afraid, the valley master has educated us that when we go out, we have to protect the girls, but Li Fenglan is different, she has a fast brain, I don't worry about what she does."
"But it's too reckless, just from the fact that I came back last night, I can't figure it out if I don't dare to kill her now."
"If you can't figure it out, don't think about it yet, anyway, she said she had a way."
Now, I have no choice but to believe in Li Fenglan.
Li Fenglan said before leaving, she prepared the boat, and once the matter became irreparable, the three of them left Jiujiang by boat, and these bad things in Poyang Lake were gone.
…
At noon, a piece of information spread among the bandits: Tourmaline died and was killed by Jiulianzhai.
The other water villages didn't understand: why kill tourmaline? Isn't it up to her to give advice?
Immediately after, a conjecture spread at the same speed: Jiulianzhai had already discovered the location of the secret treasure, so they killed the tourmaline, and they wanted to swallow it alone.
At this moment, not only the water bandits stared at Jiulian Village, but even those people in the rivers and lakes who had nothing to do with the water surface began to pay attention to them.
…
Cinnabar went to Futaba Village, but instead of looking for Li Tianbiao, he found the four Qian Wei.
"You're the cinnabar?" A square-faced man asked coldly.
Cinnabar smiled slightly: "That's right, I was the one who secretly helped you some time ago."
"What is the girl's purpose?"
"My goal is to take down the water bandits in Poyang Lake."
"For that so-called treasure?"
"I don't know who spread this story, I don't know what secret treasures are. Well, we have the same goal now, and we can join forces."
"Consistent? I don't know there's anything consistent with the girl's goals."
"You are for Xu Zhenbiao."
When the name was spoken, the money guards were obviously stunned. It stands to reason that there are many people who have heard of Xu Zhenbiao, but few people know that he is still alive. Who the hell is this woman? How did she find out about this?
Without waiting for the money guards to ask, Cinnabar smiled and said, "Xu Zhenbiao is in my way, and you ...... I don't know if you're going to kill him or if you're going to pay the bill, I don't care about that, anyway, our current goal is him, isn't it?"
The only woman in the money guard sneered, "Kill him, we won't be able to get the money back. Besides, Miss Cinnabar, your identity is too mysterious, we haven't heard of the Guigu Sect before, and what you have in your hands doesn't seem to be known by people who have lived in seclusion for a long time."
Cinnabar flicked his sleeves slightly: "In this world, everyone has secrets. I know you have concerns, so why don't you listen to my plan and then consider whether to cooperate or not?"
"Girl, please speak."
"Right now, there is one more force behind Jiulianzhai, if I guess correctly, it should be Night Feather Xiaozhu. They are protecting Xu Zhenbiao, and if you want to contact him, Night Feather Xiaozhu will be your biggest obstacle. Moreover, I don't even know where Xu Zhenbiao is hiding now. Although you are doing the work of a guard, you have a good way of stealth reconnaissance. The night after tomorrow, there will be another fight outside the Jiulian Village, and I will appear in their water village to contain them. And what you all have to do is to find out Xu Zhenbiao."
"And then?"
"I suggest you just find his location and don't do anything."
"Why?"
"The time of dawn is the darkest, and the man will not wake up, and the mind will be the least awake. And the day after tomorrow, it's not the dawn. The day after tomorrow is in full swing, and it seems to be chaotic, but the forces of all parties are dispatched in an orderly manner, and they will prevent the other party from finding loopholes. When the day after tomorrow has passed, it is best to wait for three or five days, when everything is settled, and these people will let down their guard to some extent...... This is a good time for you to make a move. Of course, this is my advice, whether you listen or not, it's up to you."
After saying that, Cinnabar turned to leave, and the four of them didn't even ask her anything, and watched her walk away.
When Cinnabar's figure disappeared, the square-faced man whispered, "Fourth brother, can you trust it?"
The man called the fourth brother shook his head: "It's hard to say, but judging from the first few contacts, she can kill us at any time." Let's listen to her first, and go to Jiulian Village the day after tomorrow."
"But...... We've been there two days ago, but we haven't found any of them."
"Look carefully, if you can't find it this time...... Let's go back to Chang'an."
This is very lonely to say.
…
Cinnabar did not go back, but went to Li's house.
Li Tianbiao looked anxious as he did yesterday.
Cinnabar looked at him like an ant on a hot pot, and rolled her eyes in disdain: "I don't have any concentration at all."
"Miss Cinnabar!" Li Tianbiao greeted him, "I heard in the morning that Tourmaline is dead!"
"Yes, it's dead."
"Are we struggling with the strength to fight again?"
Cinnabar sneered, "You've learned a lot smarter."
Li Tianbiao smiled awkwardly, "But there is a problem right now."
"Not enough people?"
"Yes...... They've broken with me in Jinhu Village, and they really don't have anyone left."
"Don't worry, there are three small water villages that hide their strength. You send someone to prepare a generous gift, and quietly visit them, so that they can gather men to assist you in the attack of Futaba Village."
"Why help us?"
Cinnabar rolled her eyes again: "You just let Jinhu Village lose their troops and let others take the lead, will people believe you?" This time, you Futaba Village will attack, you don't need to surround it, just attack head-on."
"Positive? The strength of Jiulianzhai should not be underestimated, and I am afraid that it will be ...... to do so."
"There was a big battle just now, and there were heavy casualties in Jiulian Village, and half of the masters in the water village were colored, you have nothing to lose here, the strength of the three small water villages is intact, and they can win the front. It doesn't matter if you can't take it, if you can't beat it, you can run, but Jiulianzhai can't run."
After a pause, he added, "Do as I say, otherwise, not only you, but also my life will not be guaranteed."
After speaking, he no longer paid attention to Li Tianbiao, and Cinnabar left the Li house again.
Even if Shuangye Village plus the three small water villages, it is impossible to beat Jiulian Village, which Cinnabar knows very well. The reason why Li Tianbiao did this was entirely because she didn't want to take Jiulianzhai anymore, what she wanted to do now was to create chaos, the more chaotic the better. As for what will happen to the Poyang Lake underworld in the future, it has nothing to do with her.
