Chapter 21 The soldiers are divided into four ways

This bowl of noodles took half a full stick of incense.

There were also a few diners in the noodle restaurant who came just to eat noodles in this half of the incense, and after confirming that the wind was calm, Chu Nan walked out of the noodle restaurant with Xiong Xiaomeng.

The streets, as ever, are lively.

This time, it was still Xiong Xiaomeng who walked in front, Chu Nan followed, and after walking for a short distance, the two saw Dafeng Restaurant.

Chu Nan subconsciously looked around Siye to confirm that no suspicious people appeared, and then walked to the narrow alley next to the restaurant according to the old man's instructions in advance.

After the reunion, Xiong Xiaomeng did not show a little relaxed look on his face, but asked curiously: "In my opinion, that uncle has no problems, why are you suspicious?" ”

Chu Nan took Xiong Xiaomeng's slender jade hand familiarly, frowned slightly, and said: "Anything is doubtful, if Huang Hong can have a traitor for the first time, he can naturally have a traitor for the second time." ”

"That uncle, maybe not from Ling Yuzong, but it may also be the work of your mysterious enemy."

"When you're out and about, don't trust others easily."

Xiong Xiaomeng nodded slightly, and between words, the two walked to the back door.

Before Chu Nan knocked on the door, the back door was opened, and when the old man saw this, he smiled and said, "It's really cautious." ”

"Come on in."

Inside is a small courtyard, although the sparrows are small, all the organs are complete, after entering the house, a long-lost atmosphere of wealth comes to the face, tea tables, wooden chairs, furniture and furnishings.

The old man first placed the snacks and fruits, and then poured tea and water.

After Chu Nan took his seat, he asked straight to the point, "What is Huang Hong's specific plan?" ”

The old man put the tea in front of and behind the table for the two of them, and then said slowly: "It won't be peaceful tonight, that business brigade will be subject to Ling Yuzong's key investigation tonight, and the general will also lead four henchmen to appear in some darker alleys intentionally or unintentionally." ”

"In this way, most of the masters of Ling Yuzong will aim at the general."

"And we're still here to recharge."

"At dawn, the general will spread out four henchmen, two of whom will walk with the general in the light, and the other two in the dark."

"The two people walking in the shadows are responsible for taking the initiative to attract He Lan over."

"At that point, it's up to you to see how your sword skills are, young man?"

Now the old man is most worried about whether Chu Nan can beat He Lan in the matter of catching and killing.

Although it is a girl's family, after all, it is the descendant of the upper three clans, and the killing power cannot be underestimated because of gender.

After hearing this, Chu Nan felt that the plan described by the uncle was a little rough, and said suspiciously: "Then what are you going to do next?" ”

The old man knew that there would be such a question, and said with a smile: "After nightfall, I will also appear in the streets and alleys, the general who guards the city remembers me, in the past, after I sold firewood, I would walk home in the afternoon, but today, I did not return home on time, this detail, will naturally be told to Ling Yuzong's people by the soldiers guarding the city." ”

Only then did Chu Nan feel that this plan was somewhat smooth, and the soldiers were divided into four routes, which could indeed consume a lot of Ling Yuzong's thoughts.

The old man brought up the old matter again, looked at Chu Nan solemnly, and said: "Whether this plan can continue to succeed completely depends entirely on your ability to take He Lan, if you are not He Lan's opponent, this plan is equivalent to failure." ”

Regarding Chu Nan's combat power, Huang Hong didn't know the details, Wang Dou was strong, but He Lan would be stronger.

Huang Hong speculated in his heart that Chu Nan could defeat Wang Dou, but not necessarily He Lan, if Chu Nan secretly attacked, he would probably be able to grasp fifty percent of the battle, if he couldn't succeed, the two would fall into a catch-and-fight fight, and at that time, the situation would be difficult to say.

Chu Nan didn't know how to answer Uncle's question, he and He Lan had never fought each other, but He Lan had seen himself shoot in Qingshou Mountain, and he would be alert to his usual knife posture.

Xiong Xiaomeng on the side took a sip of tea, this tea is not good, it is not in line with Xiong Xiaomeng's taste.

"He can beat He Lan." Xiong Xiaomeng said softly.

The sound was soft, as if the dust had settled.

The old man suddenly breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Okay." ”

"In this way, the two of you are here to recuperate, and I will go first."

After settling the two, the old man also had to take care of his own business.

Xiong Xiaomeng glanced at Chu Nan and asked in a low voice, "In this way, how credible is this uncle?" ”

Chu Nan silently pondered for a while, and said: "It's generally credible, maybe I'm thinking too much, and in terms of time, if he wants to harm me, he will already succeed." ”

Xiong Xiaomeng asked curiously, "Why is it roughly credible?" ”

Chu Nan smiled slightly and said: "It is not ruled out that the uncle wants to make a fortune on us and get some rare treasures on you, this is all a later story, no one is trustworthy until the dust settles." ”

"What is your own business is what you can do, and it is your own business."

Xiong Xiaomeng blinked slightly, her beautiful eyes shone brightly, and she smiled sweetly: "At a young age, it's deep enough." ”

Chu Nan gathered his breath and said: "There are still some hours before nightfall, I will inject you with Gang Qi first." ”

Xiong Xiaomeng wanted to refuse, but in recent days, she has also found that although Chu Nan has spent a lot of Gang Qi on herself, her own recovery of Gang Qi is also quite fast, and there are not many martial artists in the Star Gathering Realm who can have such attainments, and there are only a handful in the world.

"Well, tomorrow morning, it's up to you." Xiong Xiaomeng smiled.

If things don't go well, you have to count on the hairpin in Xiong Xiaomeng's hair to sneak attack.

……

The county watchman's house.

One mansion, two yamen, the county keeper has become an idler.

In the main hall, He Lan and the others received one after another notices.

After the caravan entered the city, He Lan sent a large number of men and horses to pay attention to the caravan, while leaving a few masters to accompany him, because Huang Hong was in the study next to him.

He Lan's expression was as usual, without the slightest fluster, this is the demeanor that the descendants of Ling Yuzong should have.

Whether the caravan was a suspicious tactic or someone was hiding in it, He Lan had to be careful because the pile was there.

One thing is the same as Chu Nan's analysis, that is, He Lan temporarily took charge of Yunshan County, and it was difficult to use the power to a convenient situation, and the ability of ordinary soldiers and servants was far lower than that of Chu Nan and Xiong Xiaomeng.

Therefore, some things that were originally natural will have to take some twists and turns at this moment.

On the other hand, Huang Hong in the study next door has a small posture that has nothing to do with himself, drinking wine, eating side dishes, and putting his legs on the copywriter at will.

The four henchmen with facial armor also found a chair at random and sat down.

If you compare the cultivation roots, Huang Hong thinks that he is not He Lan's opponent, if he is fighting his heart, dispatching troops to implement tactics, etc., He Lan is really not Huang Hong's opponent.

Before you know it, it's afternoon.

The general who defended the city paced back and forth at the gate of the city, and also let go of a lot of people, and gradually, there were signs of sunset, and the little general suddenly remembered the old man who sold firewood before.

He should have left the city and returned to his home in the mountains.

After realizing that something was wrong, the general who defended the city was not in a hurry, he decided to wait, at most a stick of incense, he tried his best to hide the panic in his heart, even he felt that why the old man didn't return home on time today...

The more I thought about it, the more wrong it became, and after half a burnt incense, the general defending the city said to his subordinates: "You guys will strictly investigate, and I will go back and report the situation." ”

The soldiers around were also keenly aware that the old man had not come out yet, and their hearts became inexplicably nervous.

The general defending the city picked up a fast horse and hurried to the outside of the county guard's mansion.

I was a little flustered all the way to the county guard's mansion.

After entering the lobby, he hurriedly waved his hands and said to He Lan and the others: "There is an old man who sells firewood, who used to go out of the city on time to go home, but today he didn't go home on time. ”

"I don't think there's something wrong, so I'm here to tell you."

After He Lan heard this, he subconsciously asked, "What kind of old man is he?" ”

The general who defended the city replied with a little nervousness: "About seven days ago, I carried dry firewood and sold it to merchants in the city every day, and returned home on time in the afternoon. ”

He Lan continued to ask, "Besides the old man, are there any other people?" ”

The general who defended the city replied truthfully: "Today, the old man was paid two copper plates and asked a young man who entered the city to find work to help carry dry firewood, and other than that, there was nothing abnormal. ”

"That young man is a poor young man, sweating profusely from carrying firewood, I am not at ease for a while, but I even drew a knife at him, scaring the young man to the ground, it doesn't look like we are actively looking for that young man."

The young man, the old man who didn't get out of the city on time.

A trace of suspicion flashed on Ling He Lan's face, and after thinking about it for a while, he responded: "You go and change into regular clothes first, and then go outside to wait, and soon there will be a group of people who will follow you to the city to search for the whereabouts of that old man." ”

The general guarding the city sank, and he knew that among the men and horses he was about to lead, there were masters.

"Yes."

He Lan glanced at the Dao Protector on the side, and the Dao Protector instantly sealed his hands, spreading out a vast ripple of True Yuan, and the people of the Ling Yu Sect who were hidden around the County Guard Mansion moved when they heard the news and began to converge.

"First a business caravan, then an old man, has dispersed our two groups, but we want to see when the one next door will come out of the study." He Lan smiled softly, and there was confidence in her beautiful eyes.

Soon after, the general who changed into his regular clothes came as promised and waited for the people to come, and after briefly describing the figure and appearance of the old man, he only saw one of them, and left the field of vision of the general in an instant.

It looks like something big is about to happen.

However, some of them were different from what the general of the city guard thought, and the men and horses he led only spent half an hour and half an hour to find the traces of the old man in the city.

The old man was wandering around, seemingly unconcerned about how he would spend the night in the city.

The general guarding the city subconsciously wanted to go up and arrest people, but the person behind him said softly: "Don't act rashly, follow him, if you can still see the young man who carried dry firewood for him today, then you will be a great achievement." ”

The old man, who was hanging out, glanced back slightly at his southwest direction, and the corners of his mouth not only rose: "Lao Tzu will play slowly with you." ”

A game similar to kite flying began.

The sunset is infinitely good, just near dusk.

Yunshan County, which is about to fall into the night, is gradually lively, with a surging flow of people, streets and alleys, and all kinds of cries and sales.

And Huang Hong also took four henchmen out of the study and walked out of the county guard's mansion.

This move naturally alarmed He Lan and others.

"Let's go, let's see what kind of tactics this general will use against us." He Lan smiled indifferently.

With that, He Lan set off with the protector and several guards.

Playing against a general for the first time, He Lan didn't know if it was a whim, or if she felt that it was quite a sense of accomplishment to defeat a general in a matter of strategy, in short, she was full of fighting spirit at the moment.

The county warden's house, which had been a little crowded, gradually became empty after dark.
