Chapter 376: The Lurking Assassin
Watching the entire inn turn to ashes, except for the innkeeper and Xiao Er, everyone else was indifferent.
"My shop...... How can you say that if you don't say it's gone!"
The shopkeeper and Xiao Er hugged each other with tears in their eyes, and in the end they couldn't cry anymore, so they walked in front of him.
"This is a general, right? Can you do justice for me?"
Zhao glanced at the shopkeeper, then looked at the soldier who had just proposed to search the inn, and then said lightly: "I am the general of the western region, and this place is not within the scope of our western region." ”
The shopkeeper wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes and whimpered, "Please......"
"Well, since it's under my nose, I'll help you find out about it, so you and your people can get aside and rest first. ”
After speaking, he asked people to take the shopkeeper and Xiao Er to the side to rest.
Then, he walked up to the soldier and said, "Tell me in detail about the results of your search." ”
Soldier: "Yes! We found a lot of explosives in it, and it was in some hidden place, I asked the innkeeper, and he said he didn't know, so we suspect that these people have placed it." ”
With that, the soldier moved his gaze to a few people, and the corners of his mouth inadvertently raised.
He touched his chin and nodded, and then the soldier continued: "Then we went to the rooms of these people under the leadership of the shopkeeper, and found that there were a lot of hidden weapons in it, and some corners were also set up with mechanisms. ”
"What kind of mechanism?" asked curiously.
"It's a bit similar to the hidden weapon of the Tang Gate, there is a lead on the door frame, as long as you step on the lead, there will be more than a dozen arrows flying over. ”
Hearing this, several people couldn't stand it anymore, they didn't have any hidden weapons at all, and it was obvious that they were wronged.
Zhu Qingqing wanted to come forward to theorize, but was stopped by Xiaoxiao.
Xiaoxiao whispered: "Calm down, now that the enemy is outnumbered, it is not appropriate to be emotional." ”
Ni Tianwan on the side smiled with relief, if it was Xiaoxiao before, it would definitely be more emotional than Zhu Qingqing, but this is related to the safety of several people, and it is also related to the life and death of Su Sha.
Looking at Xiaoxiao's clenched fists, Ni Tianqiao knew that Xiaoxiao was forcing herself to calm down.
"Is there anything else?"
Soldier: "Tell the general, no." ”
He pondered for a moment, then glanced at the note in his hand with his spare eyes, "Well, call the shopkeeper of the inn to come over." ”
After the shopkeeper came over, he hurriedly asked, "Have you found out?"
"Not yet, but soon, before you answer me a question, what are you two doing while my men are searching?"
"At that time...... I and Xiao Er are all at the counter, and we won't dare to move until your men call us out. ”
"So you didn't show them the way, did you?"
"Lead the way, lead the way?"
He coughed twice, and then glanced at the soldier with his peripheral vision, only to see that the soldier's eyes just now flickered, and cold sweat was on his forehead.
"It's none of your business, you go back and rest first! I'll look for you again when I have the result." ”
After the shopkeeper left, he pulled out his knife and put it on the soldier's neck.
"If I'm not mistaken, you should be the ones who vomited, right?
I saw the soldier sneer, and then suddenly pulled out a dagger from his sleeve.
I thought it was going to assassinate him, but the soldier actually stuck a dagger into his chest, and the person who had just gone in to search did the same.
Faced with the sudden self-harm, everyone was stunned.
Xiaoxiao ran in front of the self-harming soldier with an arrow, and after a few seconds, Xiaoxiao shook her head and said, "It's dead." ”
He took a deep breath, then pointed to the corpses of the soldiers and said, "Search for me!"
Under Zhao's order, several soldiers cautiously searched for the corpses, and after about a quarter of an hour, the search was finally completed.
As expected, these people are indeed Fantu people, and tattoos of Fantu's national emblems were found on each corpse.
He sighed and said: "I actually sneaked into my army, it seems that Fantu is indeed a bit of a problem, thank you for the reminder of Miss Xiaoxiao." ”
With that, he threw the note that Xiaoxiao had just handed him into the fire.
Watching the note slowly being consumed by the fire, he sighed again, "Now that the inn has been destroyed, your things are estimated to be more than lucky, and the evidence that proves that you have nothing to do with the plague is estimated to be ......."
Xiaoxiao smiled: "Please rest assured, general, in fact, I just said that the evidence is in the inn, just to lure out the Fantu assassins lurking in your army, and the real evidence is actually on me." ”
After speaking, Xiaoxiao patted her chest and signaled that the evidence was in her arms.
"I see, Xiaoxiao, I remember you. ”
"Xiaoxiao is just a small person, if the general wants to remember, then please remember General Shusha, he is the person I admire. ”
For some reason, when I heard Xiaoxiao say that she admired Susha, a trace of loss seemed to flash in her eyes.
Then he called the shopkeeper and gave him a bag of gold.
"The matter is clear, it was made by an undercover agent who vomited, and this gold should be regarded as compensation, so you can do it yourself. ”
Looking at a large bag of heavy gold, the shopkeeper instantly showed a happy expression, "Gold...... It's really gold! The villain thanked the general!"
At this time, it was almost dawn, and Bai Jian and a few people found their bags in the ashes, but they were no longer there, and a few people were glad that they were going out with swords at that time.
After resting until dawn, several people walked to the west of the domain under the leadership of the leader.
Since it was the wolf cavalry that came with them, each soldier sat on one wolf, and the assassins who had just gotten rid of a few of them had just gotten rid of them, so there were a few more wolves.
In this way, a few people rode wolves and came to the border city in the west of the region in less than half a day.
The border city is on the edge of the desert, and after coming here, several people found that Yuxi was indeed living in dire straits, and the plague had spread here, and many people were infected with the plague.
Fortunately, a few people still have Ni Tian Weak, Ni Tian Weak simply checked some people in the west of the region, and found that the plague was a very common plague, so she prescribed medicine to prevent the plague to a few people.
He asked curiously, "Is this little girl's medical skills very good?" Do you know what the plague is in the city?"
Ni Tianwan smiled weakly: "There, the person who taught me medical skills is powerful, I only learned a little bit of skin, but I still know the plague in the city, it is typhoid fever, which is a very common plague." ”
After that, his eyes lit up, and then he found a pen and paper, and asked, "Then may I ask the little girl, do you know how to treat this plague?"
"Yes. Afterwards, Ni Tianqiao said some medicine names, "These are very common medicinal materials, all of them are boiled in a pot together, four bowls of water are boiled into a bowl, one bowl in the morning and one in the evening, and it will be cured in about three or four days." ”
He wasn't sure if the medicine would work, but he knew that there were no doctors in this border city, and now he had to give it a go.
