Chapter 1305: Someone is targeting
"Captain, it's not good!! one exclaimed.
"What's going on?!"
"Horses... My horse is dying!!"
Zhan Shan hurriedly flashed over to check, and found that this person's horse mouth was foaming at the mouth, panting heavily, and it seemed that he was breathing more and less breathing, and he was almost finished.
"Lang Zhong, hurry up!" Zhan Shan shouted.
"Yes, Captain!"
A mercenary monk with a green scarf on his head hurried over with a small box in his hand, it should be that Lang Zhong.
I saw that he had dark skin, a round face and a beard, a thick figure, a short robe, and a very capable appearance, looked at the horse's eyes and mouth, and said: "Captain, our horse may have eaten something wrong, and its physical strength has been exhausted, plus after running for a day, the loss of essence is serious, and we must rest immediately!"
As he spoke, he took out a packet of medicinal beans and a bottle of water, and skillfully fed the horse.
"You mean our horses have problems?!" Zhan Shan asked, his eyebrows raised, and his cold face was already filled with murderous aura.
"Yes, I have already checked several horses just now, and they all have the same symptoms, it is estimated that there is a problem with the forage they ate before leaving in the morning," Lang Zhong sighed.
When Zhan Shan heard this, he immediately let the horse team rest in place, and formed a formation, surrounding the carriage in the middle.
At this time, Chun Xidu and Wen Yuxiang had already come over, and when they heard this, they had different moods.
"Lord Xiangxian, it can't be that someone is eyeing the old man, right?"
"It's the horse that has a problem, and it's not a human problem, so don't worry. When the horse is healed, rest for the night, and set off tomorrow before it is too late. Wen Yuxiang said leisurely.
"This... Xiangxian, why don't you join the old man tonight?"
"No problem!"
"Well... Then the old man will be relieved!" Chu Xidu's face suddenly turned cloudy and clear, and he smiled again.
The two discussed with Zhan Shan, and felt that this place happened to be not very good on the side of the road, so the three of them shot together and moved the entire horse team to the stone pavilion at the foot of the mountain that Zhan Shan was optimistic about, rearranged the invisible formation, and set up camp.
It is located in a mountain col, with the shade facing the sun, and a small pond in front of it, which has good feng shui.
However, more than a hundred horses had problems at the same time, which made everyone's nerves tense, and they felt that this trip was quite a bad omen, and they all woke up their spirits and raised their vigilance.
Lang Zhong gathered all the sick horses together, sent the medicine beans to his companions, and asked them to help feed them, it seemed that the medicine beans were extremely effective for this symptom, and the horses finally slowly returned to normal breathing, but they were weak, their legs were weak, and they were lying on the ground wilting and lacking energy...
"Lang Zhong, our horses won't all be finished, right?" Zhan Shan asked after Lang Zhong.
"Rest assured, the captain, these horses do not appear to have been poisoned, but have eaten something particularly depleting of vitality, presumably puba grass, which I can smell from the horse dung. ”
"Pu Ba Cao?!, damn !!," Zhan Shan scolded when he heard it.
Anyone who has ever raised livestock knows that the grass is a kind of grass with a slight diarrhea, and the right amount is fine, but if it is excessive, it will definitely cause diarrhea, and it seems that someone must have added too much of the grass to the horse feed before departure, so that these horses could not withstand it when they ran here.
The horse's physical strength is severely depleted, and it has already injured the sperm, and it seems that recovery will also be a problem.
"How long will it take to recover?" Zhan Shan asked worriedly.
"Need... About three days or so. Lang Zhong said.
"Three days? no, it's too long, hurry up and heal!"
"Good!"
Zhan Shan told Chun Xidu and Wen Yuxiang the news, and Chun Xidu couldn't help but be a little anxious.
"Lord Xiangxian, we were a little late for the overland route, and now that the horse has a problem, this trip is too slow..."
"Don't worry! When the horse is ready, we can hurry up and hurry? Anyway, it won't be later in two or three days. ”
"It's... What Lord Xiangxian said was right, but this incident happened a little strangely, and now it has caused panic in the hearts of the people and seriously damaged morale. If we don't find out the truth as soon as possible, the old man is worried that there may be some moths coming out later!"
"Yes! This matter should indeed be thoroughly investigated!" Wen Yuxiang agreed.
So, presided over by Zhan Shan and Wen Yuxiang, Zhan Shan's subordinates and Chun Xidu's subordinates were interrogated respectively, and it took about half a day, but no problems were found.
The preliminary judgment is not that it was done by a mole, so the possible reason is that someone is eyeing the team of Chun Xidu.
Zhan Shan reacted at this time, thinking of what the Ring-Eyed Silverback Falcon had discovered, and thought in his heart, could it be that the Heavenly Machine Hall and the Zen Machine Hall had already known that something would happen to their team, so they couldn't follow it?
He immediately spread out the matter and said, Wen Yuxiang remained silent, and immediately called Jin Chanzi and asked him to explain.
"Don't worry, the people of the Zen Machine Hall are led by the old man's grandson Zen Yan, and they are here to escort the old man, as for why the people of the Tianji Hall also follow Zen Yan and them, the old man is not very clear. Jin Zenzi said.
"It's... Could it be that the people of the Heavenly Machine Hall had already discovered something and followed up?"
"Well, what you said is not unreasonable! However, people are just following, and they are blatant, not as if they have done something wrong, so it is not good to suspect them for no reason, right?"
Wen Yuxiang said on the side: "Lao Jin is right! Moreover, the cause of the horse's problem has also been investigated, it was caused by someone who gave an excessive amount of pu ba grass before departure, and the people of the Tianji Hall have always followed the people of the Zen Machine Palace, so now the main thing is to find out who did this and why they did it!"
"Senior, I can't find out who did it now, but according to the guess of the junior, this person must be eyeing the wealth of Chu Lao, otherwise, why is your horse team all right, senior, but our horse team has an accident?" Zhan Shan said.
Hearing this, Chu Xidu shrank cautiously, and exclaimed: "This person knows that the old man is accompanied by three scattered immortals along the way, and he still dares to make a move, so bold, it can't be some big power background, right?"
"This..."
A few people were slightly stunned, if this is the case, it will be a little troublesome.
Zhan Shan shook his head and said suspiciously: "It stands to reason that letting Lord Xiangxian take over is a temporary change of hexagram, and no one knows about it, and the addition of Lord Jin Xian and Zhida Zen Immortal is an extremely secret and accidental thing, and it is impossible for the other party to know." And..."
"And what?" asked Chu Xidu anxiously.
"Giving the horse a pu ba grass is a matter before setting off this morning, that is to say, the other party only knew that it was Lord Xiangxian who took the order at most, but he must not have known that there were also Lord Jin Xian and Zhida Zen Immortal joining our team. Zhan Shan analyzed.
"Makes sense!" Wen Yuxiang praised when he heard it.
"And what does that mean?" asked Czarsido.
Wen Yuxiang smiled: "If the other party only knows that you chose me to escort you and wants to rob you, then what will he do?"
"It's... If he thinks he can beat you, he will take this opportunity to rob. If he thinks he is defeated, he may look for foreign help..."
"Yes, he hasn't shown up yet, so he should have gone to find someone to help. But it takes time to find foreign help, so he gave your horse a dipa grass to delay your trip. ”
Wow...
Chu Xidu and Zhan Shan screamed in surprise, and their faces changed drastically.
It seems that someone is really eyeing him, and he has already made a move in advance, just waiting to find a helper, maybe he will kill him.
"Lord Xiangxian, what now?!" said Chu Xidu.
"Brother Chu, don't you rest assured! Didn't you say just now, the other party only knows that there is a scattered immortal here, but he doesn't know that there are also Lao Jin and Zhida, even if he really finds a scattered immortal helper, he can't compete with the three of us. ”
"Yes, the old man is now a big stone in his heart!Haha, the old man is trying to see who has the courage to come and touch your beard!"
"Hehe, a good show is about to be staged, Brother Chu, just keep your eyes open and watch. ”
"Lord Xiangxian, do you three scattered immortals want to prepare?"
"No, the old man was a little curious, what kind of treasure did Brother Chu bring this time, so that someone was willing to invite the scattered immortals to rob him?" Wen Yuxiang asked.
"This... The things that the old man brought were all picked up from all over the country, to be honest, even the old man himself was a little confused, and he didn't know what treasure he was found when he got it, and he wanted to catch up and rob it. Chu Xidu said vaguely.
Wen Yuxiang stared at him and said, "Brother Chu is such a shrewd person, it is impossible not to know what the reason is, right? You know, ordinary people will definitely not dare to move this idea, but if there is a heavy treasure to attract, it is possible to alarm the scattered immortals to rob!"
"It's... In fact, the old man collected a variety of treasures, and almost every one of them has something attractive. However, among the treasures this time, there are indeed a few rare things, which cost the old man more than half of his funds..."Chu Xidu gritted his teeth and said.
"Okay, stop! It's your secret, there's no need to tell it. The old man just wants to make sure that there is really a heavy treasure to attract people, if this is really the case, then the other party may send out scattered immortals to rob, we must prepare in advance!"
"Lord Xiangxian, the old man estimates that if there are really scattered immortals to rob, it must be for those treasures, please help the old man!"
"Of course, after taking your honorarium, how can the old man stay out of the matter at the critical moment? However, you must obey the old man's arrangement. ”
"No problem!
"Okay, let's go to the carriage and talk about it!"
Several people moved to the carriage and secretly discussed...
When night fell, there seemed to be fog in the mountains, the moonlight was a little hazy, and from the outside, all the people and things here had been shrouded in the invisible formation, and even the stone pavilion could not be seen.
Suddenly, a dark shadow slowly rose from the mountain in the distance...
