Chapter 296: The Dark Tide Rises
In the evening, Mu Shaoyou and they stayed in Pei County.
After Lan Zhenglong was killed, Wulong Dao also promised not to rob, and many bold traders also returned.
The arrival of the new county commander and the officials made Pei County regain its anger.
They stayed overnight in Pei County and continued their journey to Ru County the next day.
Soon, we arrived in Ru County in the afternoon.
Lu Bu took out the binoculars, looked at the back and frowned, "Brother You, someone is following us on horseback, like the person in Master Song's portrait, he has been tracking us from Pei County to us, and now he is less than two kilometers away from us. ”
Mu Shaoyou asked: "Is it riding a black horse, do you have a big knife on your body?" ”
When going out in this era, many people like to follow the back of the convoy.
The purpose is to be safe.
"It's a dark horse, and he also brought a big knife, and his outfit is very similar to what Master Song painted."
Lu Bu's expression instantly became solemn.
With a telescope, more than a dozen kilometers of affairs could not escape his eyes.
"Okay."
Mu Shaoyou smiled slightly, "Let Uncle Mao take the veteran to arrest him and ask him, remember not to hurt the other party." ”
There are coincidences in everything, arrest people first, and then let's see if it has anything to do with Leng Feng.
When the inquiry is clear, it's not too late to make a decision.
Mao Shi took a few veterans and galloped on horseback.
Two kilometers away, the big man frowned, and after years of fighting, he felt a little uneasy at this moment, and immediately rode his horse and galloped.
He found out that Mu Shaoyou's subordinates were extraordinary, so he didn't dare to get too close at all, and they were all staring at it from two kilometers away.
But how could this be discovered by his people, could it be that he has the help of gods and men?
Mao Shi: They have been chasing with all their lives.
On the carriage, Mu Shaoyou looked at it with a telescope, staring at each other's every move.
This person must be the person who was in Wulong Dao before, and the big man who killed those old bandits.
With such a powerful riding skill, he must be a battle-hardened character.
Could it be a subordinate sent by King Jing?
Soon, they disappeared from sight.
The convoy stopped.
Half an hour later, Mao Shi returned with a few veterans, but their clothes had been torn.
Mu Shaoyou hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "Are you injured?" ”
The veterans pointed to the soft armor and smiled: "Thanks to the soft armor of the childe." ”
Mu Shaoyou chuckled and breathed.
In order to prevent the veterans from being injured, they all prepared soft armor in advance before departure, one pair per person, just for fear of accidents.
Mao Shi's face was full of loss, "Childe, we chased into the woods, he ambushed us in the trees, if it wasn't for the protection of soft armor in advance, our brothers would have to ride in, but he was not comfortable, I stabbed him red, but I was afraid that he had a hidden arrow, so I didn't continue to chase, I was afraid that he would fight to the death." ”
"Uncle Mao, you did a good job, no matter what happens, safety is the first."
Mu Shaoyou nodded, "Hopefully, we have the initiative, it's a matter of time before we catch him, let's go." ”
The crowd continued on their way.
Soon came to Ru County before dark and stayed in an inn.
Early the next morning, after Mu Shaoyou finished his horse steps, the convoy was ready to set off.
But at this moment, a luxury carriage stopped in front of the inn, and a man with an elephant's belly came down.
Donglong City, the vice city of Qianzhou.
Last night, a team of people drove into the mansion quickly, led by Zhang Dashan in armor.
He dismounted directly, quickly came to the backyard, and hurriedly saluted the middle-aged man in a red-clothed official uniform, "My lord, the kid received the news that Mu Shaoyou has come to Qianzhou to do business." ”
Before the Chinese New Year, the imperial court issued an edict to denounce himself for his incompetence and demoted him from adjutant general to lieutenant.
From lieutenant to lieutenant, it took him a few years and tens of thousands of taels of silver.
Moreover, there are many rebels in various places, and he is not the only one.
If it weren't for Na Mu Shaoyou's dog thing, taking the villagers to catch Na Lan Zhenglong, how could it seem that he was incompetent and forced to be demoted.
These days, he has been holding back his evil breath, and he will definitely find an opportunity to avenge this revenge.
Not only him, but the lord of the state capital was also demoted and left, from the state capital to the state official.
Pei Yuanshao, the governor of Qianzhou, asked with a smile: "I also received the news just now, so what are you going to do?" ”
"It's very simple."
Zhang Dashan's eyes sank, and he continued to exude a murderous aura, "His people are all armed with weapons, we sent people to set up roadblocks to intercept them, and then stuffed bows and crossbows into their cars, so that we can catch him openly, and then in the prison, we have a thousand ways to kill this dead thing." ”
"Yes."
Pei Yuanshao snorted lightly, "But what's the benefit of doing this for us?" ”
"Of course there are benefits!"
Zhang Dashan shouted excitedly, "My lord, the kid and you were both forced to be demoted by him, as long as we hack him to death, we will take revenge!" ”
Governor Pei Yuanshao continued to shake his head, "But what's the use of revenge?" ”
"Uh..."
Hearing this, Zhang Dashan was in a fog for a while, and hurriedly clasped his hands into fists, "Please advise the governor." ”
"The official knows that you hate that dead thing, and the official hates the other party to death, but it's useless to kill him like this."
Pei Yuanshao had a gloomy face, "If we want to be reinstated, we still have to send silver to it and find someone to help say good things." ”
Zhang Dashan seemed to understand a little, "What do you mean, my lord..."
Governor Pei Yuanshao smiled slightly, "I heard that dead thing came to buy a house in Lanzhou City and earned millions of taels of silver, and now he has caused us such a big trouble, it's time to empty him." ”
Zhang Dashan instantly became excited, "Then I'll arrange it." ”
"Your method is too impulsive, and it can't be used until the end, and there are still people in the court watching him."
Pei Yuanshao waved his hand lightly, "I've already arranged it, if that dead thing is acquaintance, it doesn't have to die so ugly." ”
Zhang Dashan frowned slightly, "But I heard that dead thing has a very bad temper, not like a person who understands human feelings." ”
Pei Yuanshao's eyes instantly became gloomy, "If he is not interested, then use your method to make that dog thing obedient." ”
Outside the inn.
A fat man walked down from the carriage, dressed in a rich and noble atmosphere, as if he was afraid that others would not know that he was rich.
The shopkeeper hurriedly stepped forward and smiled, "It turns out that Master Zhu is here, hurry up, please inside." ”
The fat man didn't say a word, and took out a letter, "Go and get it to Mu Gongzi who stayed in your store last night." ”
The shopkeeper took the letter, ran to the house, and then came to the door of Mu Shaoyou's room.
"Zhu Tan?"
Looking at the name on the letter, Mu Shaoyou looked puzzled, "Who is this Master Zhu?" ”
I came here last night to stay overnight, and someone delivered a letter early in the morning, and I didn't know each other at all.
