The three of them stayed in the inn, and they said that the civet was Yang Zhi's brother, and opened a room, and the three of them had a good care; while the guy sent water into the room, Yang Zhi inquired with the guy and found out that there was a withered tree mountain less than seventy miles away from Cuijia Town, and now there was a gang of robbers, and the town was heavily guarded, just to prevent the robbers from mixing in.

Dry Tree Mountain, in the Water Margin, is a faceless and scorched territory, Yang Zhi asked the guy: "Do you know which robber is on the mountain?"

The guy was startled, looked around, and carefully reminded: "Guest officer, the disaster comes from the mouth, there are many ears and eyes in the dry tree mountain, there are some things that cannot be said, at least not in public, I heard that there are four people, the leader of the hero is called the flower monk Lu Zhishen, and he has killed three thieves in one go." ”

It's a monk again, or a flower monk Lu Zhishen, Yang Zhi no longer has the excitement he had just crossed, and pretended to be afraid and said: "That's to be careful, let the robbers kill in, that's the head of the people." ”

The guy went out with deep sympathy, Yang Zhi couldn't help laughing, got up and closed the door, turned around and asked Li Wanhua: "Miss Li, if you enter Dingzhou tomorrow, you can go south alone, there is no road guide in the Great Song Dynasty, even if you are a Liao person and a person from the Western Regions, you can walk around the territory at will." ”

Li Wanhua was also smart, and said with a sweet smile: "Are you going to break your promise and not send me to the Daimyo's Mansion?"

Yang Zhi nodded and said: "Now I am a wanted criminal in the Three Kingdoms, in addition, I am going to rob the Jin people's war horse, kill Yin Tianjian, and let out the evil spirit in my chest." It's not safe for you to be with me, even if you don't want to go to the South China Sea for the time being, you have to go to the Daimyo's Mansion to find a place to settle down. ”

The civet smiled and asked, "What are you going to do?"

As soon as Yang Zhi told him about the loose note with himself last night, the civet immediately understood what Yang Zhi meant: "You want to force Xiao Yixue to move, even if Hai Qingzhu really has nothing to do with him, or has been sent to the Daimyo's Mansion, as long as Yin Tianjian is exposed in Dingzhou, then Liao Guo will think that Hai Qingzhu is still in Zhuozhou." But as soon as you kill Yin Tianjian, it will make people think that Yin Tianjian has already obtained the pearl, I understand, if you want to rob the horse, you are going to plant it for the Jin people later. ”

Yang Zhi's idea is meticulous, if every step is successful, Jin Guo will cry, Li Wanhua asked Yang Zhi curiously: "Three hundred horses, how do you transport them?"

Yang Zhi showed a smile and said: "I don't want it, give it to Dry Tree Mountain, my goal is Haiqingzhu, whether it is in the Daimyo Mansion or in Zhuozhou, I will get it." ”

The two of them thought that Yang Zhi was talking about fun, but they knew that the civet was called out by Yang Zhi at night, leaving Li Wanhua in the room to deal with emergencies; the two walked briskly in the town, Yang Zhi came directly to a grocery store on the road, and the civet went in without a trace of difficulty, left five taels of silver for the store, and ran out with four buckets of paint. The civet looked at the wind, Yang Zhi wrote, successively wrote five walls, big red characters, Xincheng recently had 300 horses to be transported to Dingzhou, and then the two threw the paint and went back to sleep.

Yang Zhi found something on the road, and when he returned to the room, he asked the civet: "Have you killed a lot of dogs, when we were on the street, those dogs didn't even dare to bark when they saw you, and fled along the wall." ”

The civet cat said angrily: "You know this, I have been a butcher for a while, and I am still a butcher who specializes in killing dogs." ”

Yang Zhi woke up, the sun had found the window, the three of them settled the store money and set off, the civet cat specially circled around a few walls, only to see a sea of people, all of them watching the excitement. The civet cat parked the carriage on the side of the road, went down to buy two steamed buns, and then whipped out of the town and went straight to Dingzhou; Li Wanhua looked out the window and said with a smile: "When the news spreads, I am afraid that not only the people of Dry Tree Mountain, but also the Liao people will be tempted, and I am afraid that these 300 horses will really be difficult to reach the Great Song Dynasty." ”

Yang Zhi sighed: "Once the Jin State destroys the Liao State, it will definitely start a war against the Great Song Dynasty, and Song Huizong is seeking skin with the tiger; Zhongzhou Hall and Double Dragon Society, such a combination can be built in a short period of time, so everything is strange, and I am just icing on the cake. ”

The carriage entered Dingzhou, and found that although the city was tall, the vigilance of the soldiers was not as good as that of the native soldiers in Cuijia Town, only the officials and officials who collected taxes and inspected were still shouting loudly, there were no bulk goods, but the carriage from Daliao was the goods itself, and Yang Zhi had to pay a tax of one hundred taels of silver. The carriage slowly walked into Dingzhou City, Yang Zhi looked at the scenery outside through the curtains, and suddenly saw an acquaintance, Lu Qian, the Marquis of Yu in front of Gao Yu, was sitting on the second floor of a restaurant with a person, staring at the direction of the city gate.

Lu Qian handed Wang Xiong another glass of wine and said to Wang Xiong: "Relieve the fatigue, as long as the people over there come, we will be done." ”

Wang Xiong didn't answer, took the wine glass, and his eyes remained on the crowded street downstairs: "Brother Lu, you can't wait forever." Now everyone in the city and outside the city knows about the three hundred horses, maybe someone has an accident on the road, you say, this matter is so evil, not to mention the leakage of the news, and it has been made known to passers-by. ”

"Lord Wang, you and I don't need to worry about this matter, Yin Ye will take everything in front of the Taiwei, what we have to do is to wait, no matter how long we wait, until we wait until we are human. Lu Qian walked to the railing, stood between the two masters of the rivers and lakes, ignored the crowd downstairs and said: "I understand the resignation, he is very careful in doing things, and if he comes with the horses, he will definitely be able to do it." ”

Wang Xiong said with deep meaning: "This kind of thing is like crossing the desert during a war, there is no absolute thing, maybe the matter is suddenly exposed, the people of Liao know it clearly, but they are just hindering the identity of Cilie, pretending to be confused about some things, and Cilie himself is fleeing in panic." If the Liao people were chasing him, they would not consider staying alive. ”

Lu Qian hesitated for a moment, and wanted to send someone to report to Yin Tianjian, but he felt that it was not time yet, and the city gate suddenly rushed towards the restaurant, such a short distance, there was really no need to buy time. Wang Xiong and Lu Qian were both alert, because they recognized that the person riding the horse was Lu Qian's subordinate, the person who was sent to Xincheng County; ”

"What nonsense. Lu Qian suddenly wanted to sit down and take a good rest, he was busy for almost two months, spent a lot of manpower and material resources, and finally got a most unacceptable reality.
