Chapter 10: Killing Machines Step by Step?
Thinking about it, Pei Zheng did not stop moving, walked quickly to the side of the man wearing Yicheng clothes, squatted down, pinched his mouth with his left hand, looked at it carefully for a while, and reached in with his right hand to buckle out a bloody tooth.
Pei Zheng got up and showed the tooth in front of Lin Xing's eyes: "General, please look, there is poison in the tooth, this is a dead man." ”
Lin Xing squinted his eyes slightly, and his breath fluctuated and said angrily: "These damn guys, they really dare to send people to intercept and kill the mission in the face of the world's disapproval, and when they return to Chang'an, they will definitely be asked to investigate this matter thoroughly by Your Majesty, and they must be punished by their entire clan." ”
"Brother Pei, thanks to you for this trip, if you hadn't noticed something wrong in advance, the mission would have said that it would have been a big problem. ”
Pei Zheng arched his hand and said: "The general doesn't have to be like this, this is a matter of humble position, and it is not enough to worry about." ”
Lin Xing adjusted his mind to calm and asked, "What does Brother Pei think we should do next?"
After experiencing two things, the city gate inspecting the materials and detecting the problem with the post station in advance, even the most dull person can feel Pei Zheng's extraordinary.
What's more, Lin Xing has made achievements in martial arts in this year, and served as a general in the Praetorian Guard, and his talent and IQ are much higher than ordinary people.
And smart people have always been good at making full use of the resources around them to achieve their goals, and it is natural for Pei Zheng to be relied on by Lin Xing.
That's why I asked.
Pei Zheng thought about it for a while, and brought up the old matter again: "Can the general allow the lowly post to change the route of returning south?"
Lin Xing's expression moved slightly, and he asked rhetorically: "The route that I will discuss with Master Wen is the shortest and best way to take, why do you think there is a problem?"
Pei Zheng bowed his head and said: "The specific reason is inconvenient to say for the time being, in short, there is a problem." ”
Lin Xing continued to ask, "Then what kind of route do you want to change?"
Pei Zheng was silent for a long time, and said seriously: "If the route chosen by the lowly post is not made public, it will be a way of life, and if it is announced, it will become a dead end. ”
Lin Xing frowned, shook his head and said, "It's hard for you to convince me like this, take a step back and say, even if I believe you, Master Wen will not be able to agree." ”
Pei Zheng sighed slightly: "I hope the general can consider it carefully, Lord Wen is a civilian official, and it is a matter of life and death for the mission, and the general has to decide." ”
Lin Xing's expression was solemn, and he said in a stern tone: "Brother Pei, it's okay for you to let Ben Jiang consider changing his course, but Ben Jiang doesn't want to hear you say this kind of provoking the relationship between Ben Jiang and Master Wen again." ”
Pei Zheng bowed his hand: "It's Meng Lang." ”
Lin Xing didn't seem to want to talk too much about this matter, waved his hand and said, "In addition to changing the route, you can also say something else." ”
Pei Zheng said with a serious expression: "The matter of the post station is over for the time being, the general can rest here for a while, and the rest of the humble duties can be dealt with." ”
After Pei Zheng finished speaking, he washed his hands and said to the three dogs and the mouse: "The rat found a rope and tied them up and threw them to the warehouse, and then I will interrogate them when I have time, don't forget to check whether there is poison hidden in the mouth, and if there is any, pull it out." ”
"Sangou, you go to report to Lord Wen, briefly explain the situation, and ask Lord Wen to arrange for some people to come and help quickly. ”
After Pei Zheng instructed the rats and the three dogs who looked dazed and at a loss, he arched his hand towards Lin Xing and said: "I want to search the post station to confirm whether there are any other dangers, and when the adults and them arrive, I also ask the general to let them wait outside for a while, and then enter the post station after the humble post confirms that there is no danger." ”
Lin Xing was slightly surprised: "The thieves have all been captured, is it necessary to be so cautious?"
Pei Zhengzheng said: "Be careful to sail the ship for ten thousand years, and dare not slack off." ”
Lin Xing thought for a moment: "There is no problem with the search, but it is cold, and they can't be let Master Wen wait outside for too long." ”
Pei Zheng smiled and said, "Don't worry, general, it won't take too long, and it won't necessarily delay Lord Wen and them to enter the post station to rest." ”
Lin Xing waved his hand and said, "Go quickly." ”
Pei Zheng hugged his fists, took a stick and knocked it and walked to the second floor.
After a while, Pei Zheng came downstairs with a pile of oil lamps and threw them on the ground.
"There is a drug hidden in the oil lamp, and when burned to a certain extent, it will emit a colorless and odorless smoke, the strength of which is unknown, and it should not be a problem to confuse most of the mission. ”
Lin Xing's heart tightened when he heard this, and he felt very happy, if this drug was not checked, he was afraid that he would be unconsciously enlightened.
If you fall asleep at night, and there is another team lurking nearby, won't the mission be destroyed?
"I've checked roughly, rat, you go upstairs and rummage through the cabinets to check carefully. ”
The rat who tied up the five people, pulled out the fangs and threw them into the warehouse, without saying a word, went upstairs.
Pei Zheng carried a wooden stick upside down and walked to the back of the main building.
A moment later, Pei Zheng returned to the lobby with a few crockpots.
"There are dozens of cans of fire oil in the warehouse, and if a fire breaks out, the whole station will be reduced to nothing. ”
Lin Xing had cold sweat oozing faintly from his forehead, and he could imagine the picture of his group of people being fascinated by the smoke, and the other party burned the bones of his group of people with a fire.
Pei Zheng confessed and stepped into the kitchen and firewood room.
"There was no problem with the kitchen, there was no poison, there was no drug, and the other party should have known that we would focus on inspecting the kitchen, so they didn't do anything. ”
"There are also more than a dozen cans of fire oil in the firewood room, well, and two bottles of poison, the intensity of which is unknown for the time being. ”
Pei Zheng walked out of the kitchen, placed two bottles of poison on the table, and walked to the last building of the post station, the stable.
"There is a problem with the forage in the post stables, it should be some poison that is specially used to poison horses, please ask the general to arrange for someone to throw away the forage and feed it with the concentrate we brought ourselves. ”
Pei Zheng said the discovery of the last stop, arched his hand towards Lin Xing and said: "General, the lowly inspection is over, the basic dangers have been eliminated, and it should not be a big problem to check in, but fortunately, Master Wen was not delayed to enter and rest." ”
At this time, the convoy was less than 300 meters away from the post station.
"Okay, Brother Pei, you did a good job, if it weren't for you, I would have been afraid that I wouldn't even know how to die, and I wouldn't be blind to death. ”
Lin Xing sincerely admired, in addition to fear, he only had to appreciate Pei Zheng, which could be described as surprised and happy.
What is surprising is that the enemy has so many means that it makes the hairs stand on end, and it is impossible to prevent it.
Happily, the scout team of Xin'an City is refreshing their opinion of him again and again.
Such a talent is in the right position, it is really a talent.
Until this time, Lin Xing's dissatisfaction with Pei Zheng's attempt to change the route completely disappeared, and he was even wondering if he should persuade Wen Feng to support the other party to change the route?
Pei Zheng's expression remained unchanged, and he bowed his head and said: "The general has won the award, even if he does not have a humble position, a person like the general who is blessed by heaven can also turn evil into good fortune." ”
The moment he lowered his head, a hint of joy flashed in Pei Zheng's eyes, he knew that this time he was really in Lin Xing's eyes.
All the hard work was not in vain.
In fact, what are the so many bizarre methods of the pursuers? Pei Zheng is not making a movie, where does he have such a keen sense of observation?
The drug in the oil lamp was stuffed into it by his own hands.
The poison in the forage was sprinkled with powder by pinching a golden gun.
The poison in the firewood room was also brought by himself, but he replaced the porcelain bottle that originally contained spices in the kitchen.
Only the fire oil in the storehouse and firewood room was provided by the post station itself.
Pei Zheng was the only one who searched the station, and the "facts" were there, didn't he have the final say?
The only possible loophole is the five people who were captured alive.
If nothing else, Pei Zheng will get the right to interrogate, and this splash can't make too many waves.
Even if he can't get the right to interrogate, Pei Zheng is not worried, the "facts" are there, unless Wen Feng and Lin Xing are crazy, it is impossible to believe the enemy and not believe him?
"I hope that after this incident, I can get the right to change the course. If you don't change your course, the chances of surviving are a little slim. ”
In Pei Zheng's sorrow, Wen Feng led a five-year-old child out of the carriage and into the lobby of the post station.
Lin Xing greeted him and briefly explained what had happened.
The next moment, more than a dozen people poured into the post station and threw all the dangerous goods into the snow.
