Chapter 116: Tang Da is missing
Ye Feng and the others waited in front for a long time, but Tang Da didn't catch up.
Thinking of the eager look on Tang Da's face before, he always felt a little uneasy in his heart.
Under his advice, Vice General Hao sent two horses to probe the horse, and the horse went back to investigate the situation.
Tanma soon came back and reported that the place where they camped last night was now empty, and there was no trace of Tang Da.
Without dry food and water, where can Tang Da go?
Maybe he really had other important things to do, and left after meeting with the people of the Tang Sect in Shuzhong?
Ye Feng forcibly comforted himself like this.
But when he thought of the two camels that had died violently the night before, the two camel riders who had been killed last night, and Tang Da, who had suddenly disappeared, the uneasy cloud in his heart became bigger and bigger.
Perhaps, this is just the beginning, and the real danger is yet to come!
Ye Feng glanced at the camel that was leading the way at the front of the team and behaving more and more strangely, and couldn't help but think so secretly in his heart.
The team moved on.
When it was time to camp at night, none of Ye Feng and the others rested, but stayed vigilantly by the campfire, watching the sergeants on night duty come and go, patrolling around, preparing for what would happen like the previous two nights.
Zhang Fatzi and Xie Zhenliang sat beside him, accosting him without a word, Tang Da's disappearance and what happened two nights ago made everyone's mood very low.
They knew that Ye Feng's hearts were very worried at the moment, but they couldn't find any words to comfort them, because now they had the same feeling in their hearts.
The mouse, who had been silent, was half-lying by the campfire with his hands on his head.
From the very beginning, he didn't talk much, even when he was fighting hard in Devil City, he had such a leisurely look, as if he wouldn't pay attention to it even if the sky fell.
Zhang Fatzi said that he was a strange person, but Ye Feng felt that since he was a stranger, he would always have a strange temper, just like a camel.
The camel sat by the fire, staring blankly at the beating flames, not knowing what was on his mind.
In the past few days, he has spoken very little, and often he has not been able to say a few words throughout the day, and he looks worried, as if he is meditating with his head down at any time.
Ye Feng looked at him, he really wanted to talk to him and understand his current thoughts, after all, his rich experience in the desert was of great help to Ye Feng and them, but he hadn't thought about how to speak.
When he was hesitating, he saw Miss Cheng walking towards this side from a distance.
Ye Feng knew that at this time every night, Cheng Nianzhen would bring him a special pill on time and watch him take it.
Then the camel suddenly stood up and whispered, "I'll go and see if the horses have been fed." ”
With that, he turned and walked away.
The mouse jumped up suddenly, and left after him without saying a word.
The actions of the two of them seemed to remind Xie Zhenliang on the side, he stabbed Zhang Fatzi, who was sitting lazily on the ground, and said, "Let's go see the horses too?"
Zhang Fatzi was stunned: "What's so beautiful about horses? These days, you ride horses every day, and even your clothes are full of the smell of horses, haven't you seen enough?"
Xie Zhenliang glared at him and said, "Go and see how to feed the horses!"
Zhang Fatzi still didn't seem to understand, and muttered: "Naturally, there is a sergeant in charge of feeding forage, what's so good?"
Xie Zhenliang couldn't help but be a little angry, raised his head and glanced at Miss Cheng who came over, and then lowered his head and glared at Zhang Fatman: "Dead fatty, too lazy like a pig, are you going or not?"
Listening to his tone, it was clear that he was scolding Zhang
Fat people are stupid like pigs.
Zhang Fatzi followed his gaze and understood, so he stood up a little reluctantly, and walked away with Xie Zhenliang, while still chattering: "Go and go, why call others pigs, it's so vulgar!"
Looking at their departing figures, Ye Feng couldn't help but smile.
Of course, he understood that these people left under the pretext of leaving, just so that he and Miss Cheng could be alone and have the opportunity to whisper some words together.
There is no need to speak, but he can understand it like this, this may be a friend, Ye Feng felt a warmth in his heart.
However, this just shows that the matter between Ye Feng and Miss Cheng is now well known.
This made Ye Feng feel a little embarrassed in the warmth.
Cheng Nianzhen came to Ye Feng's side, looked at the few people who left suddenly, and asked a little strangely, "Why did they all leave all of a sudden?"
Ye Feng smiled secretly in his heart, it seems that Miss Cheng is too simple after all, and she can't understand this tacit understanding between men.
He didn't explain much, but said lightly, "They went to see how the horses were doing." ”
Cheng Nianzhen didn't ask much, sat down next to Ye Feng, stretched out his hand and handed him a pill.
Ye Feng took it and put it in his mouth, and it wasn't until he saw him swallow it that Miss Cheng showed a relieved look on her face.
Ye Feng asked casually, "Xiao Sanji and Old Man Fu are resting, right?"
Cheng Nianzhen nodded and said, "They have all rested, and now the have been guarding in front of their two tents, not leaving an inch." Little Sanji fell asleep as soon as he lay down, and it looks like he's really tired these days. I also came out when he was asleep. ”
Ye Feng also nodded, yes, such a journey is really too hard for children and the elderly.
Therefore, although they agreed not to sleep that night, they stayed here all night, in case anything unexpected happened like the previous two nights.
However, Little Sanji and Old Man Fu still need to rest.
Of course, there is also Miss Cheng beside her.
She is a weak woman who doesn't know martial arts, and she must be very tired from such a hard journey. But what she is worried about is still her own body, and she has to drag her tired body every night, and she can rest assured that he has taken medicine.
Ye Feng felt a little sweet in his heart.
"By the way, how has Old Man Fu's body recovered in the past few days?"
After listening to Ye Feng's question, a strange look appeared on Cheng Nianzhen's face.
She said with some hesitation: "Old Man Fu's body is recovering well, but it's ......."
Ye Feng looked at her with a look of wanting to say something, and asked, "But what?"
Cheng Nianzhen said: "The night before yesterday, when I happened to pass by Old Man Fu's tent, I vaguely heard two people talking in the tent. ”
Cheng Nianzhen and Xiao Sanji live in the same tent, and Old Man Fu lives next to them, living alone, and he should be the only one in the tent.
However, there is nothing to make a fuss about, maybe someone went to talk to Old Man Fu or something, it is not surprising.
But what Miss Cheng said next made Ye Feng feel a little strange: "At that time, the lights were obviously out in Old Man Fu's tent, and I thought that Old Man Fu had already fallen asleep. At this time, who will go to Old Man Fu to talk in the dark?"
So I lifted the curtain of the tent and poked my head to look inside, but there was no one else in the tent, only Old Man Fu himself. And he was already asleep, unresponsive to my actions. ”
Ye Feng was stunned for a moment and asked, "It can't be that you heard it wrong before."
Or is it that Old Man Fu himself is talking in his sleep?"
Cheng Nianzhen had a look of conviction: "Absolutely not, the two voices talked very intensely, like they were arguing, although they couldn't hear what they were saying, but the voices were clearly two completely different people." ”
Ye Feng felt a little strange at this time, if someone was really talking to Old Man Fu, why didn't he light the lamp and touch the dark, was he afraid that others would find out?
If there was really another person in the tent at that time, why didn't Miss Cheng see it? Could it be that the moment she lifted the curtain, this person had already slipped out from behind?
Then Old Man Fu must be pretending to be asleep? They are so sneaky and mysterious, what are they talking about?
Who is this person who is talking secretly with Old Man Fu?
Ye Feng pondered for a moment and asked Miss Cheng, "Did you mention this matter to Old Man Fu later?"
Cheng Nianzhen said: "The next day, I asked Old Man Fu who came to the tent to look for him last night. ”
Ye Feng asked, "Then what did he say?"
Cheng Nianzhen had a puzzled expression on his face: "He said that he had already slept as soon as it was dark, and he slept until the next morning, and no one looked for him at night." But that night, I heard two voices distinctly. ”
Ye Feng lowered his head and pondered.
In this way, if Miss Cheng heard correctly, then it was Old Man Fu who was lying! He didn't want others to know that he had a secret conversation with someone in the tent, what did he want to hide?
Ye Feng went through all the people in the team one by one in his mind, and he really couldn't think of who it would be.
Or, isn't this person who secretly went to see Old Man Fu his own person in the team?
Ye Feng suddenly had a flash of inspiration in his mind, he thought of the two camels that died violently the night before, and the two camel riders who were killed last night.
Could it be that this person who had a secret conversation with Old Man Fu would have come in from the outside? Could he be the assassin who killed people with a poisonous needle?
If it was him, then what did Old Man Fu have to do with what happened in the past two nights?
He remembered that when he was in Lanzhou City, the old man Fu Shuangling once said that he was the "chosen one" that their Fu family had been waiting for for generations, and it was his destined mission to lead him to find the ancient city of Loulan.
It seems that Old Man Fu shouldn't do anything unfavorable to himself, right?
Ye Feng was thinking wildly in his heart, and the expression on his face was also cloudy.
Cheng Nianzhen saw his face change, and he was worried, so he gently put his hand on his shoulder and said softly: "Don't think about it anymore, maybe, it is possible that I really heard it wrong for a while." ”
Ye Feng knew that she was just comforting herself, and smiled at her.
Cheng Nianzhen asked a little worriedly: "Are you really going to stay like this tonight without sleeping? You have to hurry tomorrow, can you support your body like this?"
Ye Feng sighed a little helplessly: "This is also a choice that has no choice, what happened two nights ago is too strange, now even Tang Da has left, and now it looks like it is about to reach the ground, such a thing must not happen again." ”
Cheng Nianzhen bowed slightly: "This person who used the poisonous needle may have been hiding around us all along, maybe Mr. Tang Da left to deal with him." ”
Ye Feng nodded, secretly looking forward to it in his heart, I hope Tang Da is safe and sound!
While the two were talking, they suddenly heard an exclamation from the stable!
In the silent night sky, this exclamation was extraordinarily abrupt, it was the voice of a fat man!
Something happened again!
