Chapter 46: Eavesdropping

Grabbing a piece of lamb chops in his hand, looking at Qin Wen's expression, Ge Teng said with a little mystery: "It all depends on luck, just yesterday a few Qi people in our tribe went out quietly, and I don't know what to do, when I came back, my brother I flattered a few words, and threw a spirit stone casually." ”

When Qin Wen heard this, he couldn't help but be stunned, the Qi people in the Ebihu tribe who traded the Spirit Eagle Stone went out last night, and this matter was very likely to be related to the Spirit Eagle Stone that Ening said, but he didn't expect that he hadn't asked in the depths yet, and he got the news so easily.

Seeing Qin Wen's somewhat contemplative expression, Ge Teng thought he didn't believe it, so he continued: "Brother, let me tell you, this night is usually out of the tribe, doing some things behind people's backs, as long as you deliberately pretend not to know, then extra money is absolutely indispensable." ”

Qin Wen nodded hurriedly, casually took a sip of the mutton soup brought to him, and said to Ge Teng: "Do those holy masters who come from Great Qi often go out?"

Ge Teng shook his head and said: "It's enough to go out once a month and let you meet for a while in the casino, but brother, those Qi people are generous, but if you are on night duty in your tribe, it is estimated that all the people you meet are people from your own tribe, even if you give money, you can't wipe off your face." ”

The two drank for a while, and saw that the mutton in front of them had been eaten, and there was not much wine left in the wine bag, and seeing that Ge Teng's face was also flushed, Qin Wen beckoned to settle the wine account, and then gave Ge Teng a silver ingot: "Brother, I just remembered, there is something to do in the afternoon, so I won't accompany you to the casino, these silver are the gambling books I lent you, and when I am free in the evening, I will come to you again." ”

Ge Teng took the silver and said, "Brother, you are so happy, okay, I will borrow your auspicious words, and this afternoon I will kill all sides, and when I win the silver, I will invite you to drink in the evening." ”

After the two of them got out of the tent, Qin Wen watched Ge Teng staggering into the gambling house, and he used his vitality to dissolve the drunkenness, and then walked towards the tribe of Ebihu.

Because he was dressed in a shepherd's clothes and wore a felt hat on his head, although his face was slightly delicate, no one else suspected it, and he walked around the Ebihu tribe, except for the big tent and a few other guards who did not go, and still had some understanding of the distribution of tents in the Ebihu tribe.

The big tent of Ebihu was in the middle of the tribe, and this Qin Wen could see it very easily, but as for the location of those monks who traded the Spirit Eagle Stone, Qin Wen was not clear.

After turning around, the sky gradually darkened, and Qin Wen had no familiar people to inquire about in the tribe of Ebihu, seeing that the people in the tribe were gradually becoming scarce, Qin Wen knew that if he was still here, he would most likely be suspected by the people who were patrolling, so he had to retreat in the direction of the casino.

As soon as he walked into the door of the gambling tent, he saw Ge Teng happily standing in front of the Pai Gow table in the morning, and his mouth was still chanting, Qin Wen saw his expression and knew that Ge Teng must have won the money in the afternoon, so he walked over with a smile.

Just when Qin Wen walked to his side, Ge Teng found Qin Wen, grabbed Qin Wen and said: "Brother, why are you only here now, thanks to your capital, I even won the principal and interest this afternoon, I didn't say anything, I will invite you to drink after playing two more games." ”

Qin Wen also took out some scattered silver taels, and followed Ge Teng to place a few bets at will, and after about half an hour, Ge Teng couldn't finish putting away the silver taels won on the table, and then walked out of the casino with Qin Wen.

The two of them still came to the tent where they had dinner in the morning, and Ge Teng returned the silver taels that Qin Wen had lent him to Qin Wen, and then ordered some more wine and food, and continued to drink.

This time he had to drink more than at noon, and when Ge Teng walked out of the tent, he was already staggering and full of wine, Qin Wen deliberately helped him into the tribe of Ebihu, the Lingshan tribe is a large tribe, and there are no soldiers guarding the small tribes, but soldiers on duty at night are set up on the periphery of the entire large tribe.

After entering the tribe, Qin Wen did not ask Ge Teng's tent directly, but the two of them staggered to the outside of a tent guarded by the sergeant at noon, and Qin Wen began to ask Ge Teng from a distance: "Brother, is this the tent you live in?"

Ge Teng squinted his eyes and looked at it, then shook his head and said: "This is the tribe's ordnance warehouse, my house is over there, and when we get to my house, we brothers will continue to drink." As he spoke, his fingers wandered in one direction.

Qin Wen took him to a goal, and after finding two tents in succession, Qin Wen got the tent where the monk who came to trade the Spirit Eagle Stone lived from Ge Teng's mouth, and after sending Ge Teng back to his own tent, Qin Wen slowly walked among the tribes of Ebihu.

Because when they were sending Ge Teng home just now, they had encountered several waves of soldiers patrolling the tribe at night, so they saw that Qin Wen did not ask again, Qin Wen looked at the tent where the monk who traded the Spirit Eagle Stone lived from a distance, it was still brightly lit, and occasionally a few laughter could be heard.

The location of their tent was slightly northeast of the tribe, and there were only three or five ordinary herdsmen outside, Qin Wen knew that the target he was standing in the tribe was too big, and there was no place to hide nearby, so he probed the location of the soldiers on duty at night, and then jumped out of the tribe of Ebihu.

found a hidden snow field on the outskirts of the northeast corner of the tribe, and then dug a hole in the snow, hid in it, and after making sure that the soldiers on duty at night could not find him, Qin Wen quietly used his divine sense to start exploring the periphery of the tent first.

According to Qin Wen's estimate, the monks in the tent who came to trade the Spirit Eagle Stone must be at least a monk in the Xuanshi period, and if he rashly used his divine sense to probe the situation in the tent, he would be discovered on the spot if he was not careful, and it would be extremely unfavorable to Qin Wen at that time.

On the periphery were soldiers from two tribes guarding the tent door, the cold wind was blowing from outside the tent, the two soldiers stomped their feet to keep warm after a while, Qin Wen's divine sense gradually probed into the tent, there were a total of four people in the tent, and they were sitting around the warm charcoal fire and drinking.

It may be because several people were a little drunk, so they didn't find Qin Wen's divine sense, but continued to drink and talk, Qin Wen, who was lying in the snow, also quietly breathed a sigh of relief at this time, and quietly listened to the conversation between them.

What these four people said was the official language of Daqi, and one of them said: "Come, drink, by the way, I'll have another piece of mutton, this time the four of us should be regarded as a great achievement, if you return to the church, it is estimated that you will not come back, when you first came, I felt that I must be tired of eating mutton every day, but I think I can't eat mutton here in the future, I am really a little reluctant." ”

As soon as his words fell, he heard another person laugh and said: "I see that you kid doesn't want mutton, but you think about the girl whose name is Qige, I wonder, your kid is not much better than me, why did you marry that delicate girl to you." ”

When Qin Wen heard this, he was already convinced that the Qi people who lived in this tent were the Qi people who came to trade the Spirit Eagle Stone, but from their words, he also heard that they were not ordinary caravans, they should still be disciples of a certain sect.

At this time, Qin Wen's heart suddenly flashed out of the Tianmi Sect that he had come into contact with, in the mountains where Aoyu and their spirit eagles lived, Qin Wen encountered Lu Ziyan and the two of them chasing and killing at that time, it was because of the Qinglong Dan Furnace, and now he was the Lingying Stone needed for the Qinglong Dan Furnace, could it be that the Tianmi Sect also needed this kind of Lingying Stone, so he came to the Lingshan Tribe to do business.

Qin Wen knew that this possibility was still very high, so he continued to listen intently, and a slightly old voice inside said: "There will be information from the sect in the next two days, I estimate that we will be given four good rewards, but Xiao Zhou, you should also be prepared to stay here." ”

Then the first voice to speak rang out again: "Why me? I've been here for three years, just like you, and I haven't made any mistakes, so why have you all gone back, so you left me here." ”

Hearing Xiao Zhou's somewhat unconvinced voice, the slightly old voice was not angry, but opened his mouth to explain: "This is the only place in the sect to trade Spirit Eagle Stones, I think the sect leader will never let the four of us go back at the same time, and send four more disciples who have no experience at all." ”

"You have the best relationship with Ebihu here, and he has the heart to match his qualifications to you, so it is most suitable for you to stay here and bring a few newcomers, but Xiao Zhou, don't worry, if the three of us go back this time, we will definitely continue to ask the general altar for instructions and transfer you back as soon as possible." ”

There was silence in the tent, Qin Wen knew that the other three were waiting for Xiao Zhou's vote, and after a while, he heard Xiao Zhou say with some frustration: "Didn't we get more than 100,000 catties of Spirit Eagle Stones this time, so many Spirit Eagle Stones are not enough to be used in the sect?

The slightly old voice heard Xiao Zhou's tone loosen a little, so he said with a slight smile: "This estimate can only be known by the high-level in the sect, to tell the truth, what are these hundreds of thousands of catties of spirit eagle stones, I have seen three or four times more spirit eagle stones than this in the altar of the sect." ”

Speaking of this, a somewhat weak voice sounded in the tent: "My brother has been a disciple on duty at the altar for ten years, according to him, our sect has been looking for spirit eagle stones for a hundred years, and it has not been interrupted, when this sect has not established a relationship with the Lingshan tribe, it is all in the Hu tribe to trade spirit eagle stones, at that time the sect leader once ordered that as long as it is a spirit eagle stone, no matter how many spirit stones, it must be traded." ”

Hearing this, Qin Wen couldn't help frowning slightly, this weak voice seemed to be somewhat familiar to him, as if he had heard him speak somewhere.
