002, look at tea (below)
The lord of Hongyuan City ordered someone to arrange the most comfortable room for the tiger baby to rest, and then sent the village treasure to Baixi Village to investigate, and before leaving, he also privately told the village treasure some things. After dawn, he sent someone to recruit soldiers to meet him again, in fact, he already knew in his heart that Yan Lingzhu had already run away, where could he still come to see him, but this was just for example.
Village Bao set off from Feihong City to Baixi Village and then returned, I am afraid it will take two days and one night, Huwa lived in the city lord's mansion, and also noticed that the living habits here are different from other places.
When Huwa was in Lu Village, the tribesmen only ate one meal a day, and the barbarian tribe ate an amazing amount of food, and when there was a shortage of food, it was possible to eat only one meal for several days, but one meal could eat a lot. When they arrived at Baixi Village, the villagers there ate two meals a day, at sunrise and sunset, and in between was a day's work.
However, in this city lord's mansion, people eat breakfast, noon, and evening three meals a day, and the city lord also handles affairs in the morning and afternoon, and eats and rests at noon. The tiger baby lives here, of course the city lord has to entertain her, but this is the little gentleman who said that he is practicing in Bigu recently, just send some tea.
So the lord of the city ordered people to serve tea every day, and sent the most precious tea utensils in the mansion. And Xinlan, a national worker and a monk of the Five Realms who lives in Feihong City, heard that another national worker came to Feihong City and lived in the City Lord's Mansion, and he also came to visit.
There are nearly 50 national workers in the Xiangmuro country, many of whom live near the national capital, some hold various positions, and some of them rarely show up in the cave house. Feihong City is so big, of course, there are several national workers living in the territory, among which this Xinlan is in the city. The monks have their own social circles that are different from ordinary people, and mutual visits are also a good exchange and confirmation machine, and it is of course normal for Xinlan to come when she hears the news.
But Xinlan didn't see the tiger baby, and she didn't even need the tiger baby herself to reply, so the Hongyuan city lord refused on his behalf. It is said that the little gentleman is in retreat for the secret method. It is not convenient to meet customers for the time being.
What are you doing in the City Lord's Mansion to comprehend the secret method? Although it is comfortable to live there, it is not a good place for retreat and cultivation, and Xinlan is also confused. But after thinking about it, it is likely that the city lord of Hongyuan asked the national workers to help him refine some kind of precious artifact, so he should not be distracted, Xinlan also left with a comprehension, and asked the city lord to convey his intentions.
After two days and one night, the village treasure hurriedly returned to the city from Baixi Village, and reported to the city lord's mansion after dusk. Not only did he confirm what had happened, but he also conveyed the words of the city lord to the current patriarch Lingbao. Between brothers, of course, it is convenient to say anything.
The city lord of Hongyuan took the village treasure to the door of the tiger baby's residence and politely asked to see him. Huwa replied in the house: "Lord of the city, this is your house, I am just a guest, why do you want to say anything to see, come in!"
After entering the house, Hongyuan and Murabao bowed to the tiger baby first, thanking him for his righteous action. not only guarded the villagers in Feihong City, but also eradicated the heinous murderers hidden in the city. After sitting down, Huwa asked, "Captain Cunbao, you have already seen Lingbao." What did he say?"
Murabao replied, "He told me about a qiē, starting from meeting you at the Shuangliuzhai Station. I also examined the corpses of the rogues and the ordnance they carried, and sure enough, it was the first military formation in Feihong City, and there was no one missing. Lingbao was surprised and honored. He knew that you came from an extraordinary background, but he didn't expect that you were still a noble national worker. ”
Huwa nodded and said, "Yes, none of them escaped." It's just that you ran away from a behind-the-scenes Yan Lingzhu, and you haven't found out his whereabouts, right?"
Mura Bao replied: "According to the inquiry, Yan Lingzhu crossed the Minshui after leaving the city, and there is no news of his whereabouts, maybe he has fled to a distant place, or even in the Xiangmur Country. ...... Little sir, I have a question, according to what you and Lingbao have said, it is not confirmed that Yan Lingzhu is related to Nongneng, and even if there is any suspicion, there is no evidence, why did he order you to intercept you and flee quietly? Isn't this a confirmed crime!"
Huwa pondered: "If you were him, are you sure that you are not exposed? And whether he is exposed or not, as a military advisor, he will be taken down and questioned." ”
......
Nongneng's original plan was to suddenly enter the mountains and change his outfit on the way to Shang'an Village, and quickly cross Baixi upstream to Baixi Village, which happened to appear at the time they had agreed with the Shangy people. After succeeding, he quickly returned, still emerging from the original road, and rushed to Shang'an Village before dark, so that no one could notice. The plan was flawless, but they failed to do it.
The army was lost halfway for no reason, and did not arrive at the next village at the expected time, Yan Lingzhu also realized that something was wrong after hearing the news, and immediately rushed out of the city to Baixi Village. When he arrived, it was the morning after the snow, and he didn't dare to get too close to the village, but he happened to see the scene of the villagers and the demon clan cleaning the battlefield in the distance, and the "Liukou" was obviously wiped out.
Yan Lingzhu only knew that Nongneng's plan had failed, and the entire army formation was finished, and at this time, the two sides had been fighting for three days, and the identity of the army formation was completely exposed. In such a long period of time, it is entirely possible for Baixi Village to capture the captives and interrogate a lot of inside information, ordinary sergeants may not know what he has to do with this matter, but the three leaders of the military array are clear.
How dare Yan Lingzhu think that Baixi Village didn't find out about him, so he hurriedly returned to Shuangliu Village, ordered someone to transfer the army to intercept the road, and then hid in the middle of the road to snoop, and found that Huwa set off to the city first, obviously to report the news, so he ordered the army to intercept and kill, and he ran back to the city first to pack up his things and slip away.
If Huwa is taken down according to his order, and the news is blocked and escorted to the military array to wait for him to interrogate him personally, I am afraid that it will take longer for the truth to be revealed, and even when Baixi Village sends someone to the city to report the news, then he will have enough time to dismiss his family and leave calmly.
Yan Lingzhu didn't know that Baixi Village didn't catch a single live interrogation, mainly because those pig-headed people were too violent, and even the injured rogues were found out and slaughtered on the spot. If he does nothing, he may only be removed from his post and investigated, and exiled to the border for a few years at most, but if he does so, he will be guilty of destroying the door.
But Yan Lingzhu didn't have time to think about it so much, anyway, he had already packed up his valuables and ran away first, as for Feihong City, even if it was a mess, it had nothing to do with him.
......
Yan Lingzhu must have something, but what exactly is going on can only be guessed, because there is not a single living mouth left in Baixi Village, as for how Nong Neng and the others know about the secret treasures of the Baixi Ying family, I am afraid they can only ask Yan Lingzhu. But in the past few days, the Hongyuan City Lord has not publicly ordered the arrest of Yan Lingzhu, of course, there is a problem.
After entering the house, it was always the village treasure who spoke, but the Hongyuan city lord never said a word. After hearing this, Huwa nodded and asked, "You are here to sue me about this? Is there anything else? I have lived in Feihong City for these days, but I haven't even left the door, if nothing happens, I should leave!"
The Hongyuan City Lord hurriedly got up and said, "Mr. Wait, I still have something important to ask for!"
He personally went out and came in with a pot, and personally made tea for Huwa, followed by a servant. The servant carried a plate, covered with golden velvet, the plate was not very large, but the servant looked a little struggling, put the things on the table and bowed out.
The tiger baby didn't stretch out her hand, and opened the velvet in the air with the method of imperial objects, and there was still a golden color underneath, which was actually a plate of gold. I only heard Hongyuan say respectfully: "Mr. Xiao is a master in the world, I am afraid that he will not look down on these mundane things." But I am a mortal person, and I thank you for what you have done for Feihong City. ”
Hongyuan is not a monk, and he has only been the city lord for two years, so it is estimated that it will be difficult for him to take out things such as magic weapons or heavenly treasures. Gold is indeed too vulgar, but vulgarity is also elegant, even monks and masters will not dislike it. The tiger baby also has it on herself, which is only a lot more than the plate sent by Hongyuan.
Huwa looked at the plate of gold, did not say to accept it, nor did she say whether to accept it, and then looked at Hongyuan's eyes and said, "Lord of the city, since you have something, say it." ”
Of course, Hongyuan didn't just come to give gold to the tiger baby, he said with some apprehension: "This matter is very important, and the lord of this city does not dare to make a claim, and plans to send Captain Cunbao to the national capital to report and ask the monarch what to do? ”
The damned ones are already dead, and those who want to escape have already fled, and what else can the monarch do with is nothing more than how to make it public. Huwa asked again: "Report to the monarch, and wait for the king's edict to be issued to the city, it will take at least two months, how does the city lord want to explain?"
Hongyuan replied: "I would like to temporarily announce that there are rogues who want to loot the village, and the patrol army has detected clues. When the army was pursuing, it was ambushed by the Liukou, but fortunately, with the help of the righteous people of Xixi Village, the Liukou was killed, but the military formation was unfortunately wiped out. ”
Huwa just looked at Hongyuan, but didn't speak. This made Hongyuan feel a little uncertain, and explained in a low voice: "The most elite army formation in Feihong City was wiped out, what kind of ferocious rogues did they encounter?
But at that time, there happened to be a powerful and superb national worker passing by, and the righteous man Lingbao was a guest in Baixi Village with several masters Beixi, Yunxi, and Shi Yu, and had the help of the demon clan who rushed to hear the news, so that the murderous rogues were eradicated, and Baixi Village also suffered a lot of casualties. In this way, you can barely explain.
When Mr. Xiao entered the city, he showed the tokens of the Kuomintang and the Communist Party, and many soldiers and civilians saw it with their own eyes, of course you came for this matter. Feihong City will publicly praise all the righteous soldiers, the fallen helpers and the dead and injured villagers, I sent the captain of the village treasure to Baixi Village, but also to discuss this matter with the villagers. ”
Huwa finally asked, "Oh, what did Baixi Village say?"
Mura Bao hurriedly replied, "Lingbao summoned the villagers and the patriarch of the demon clan to discuss, and he can also understand why the city lord made such an announcement. When they heard that Mr. Xiao was originally a member of the Kuomintang and was currently living in the city lord's mansion, they said that they would obey Mr. Xiao's orders, as long as Mr. Xiao nodded, they would have nothing to do.
