Chapter 894: Missing

The colleague in his Tiece Army was called Chen Song, who was the survivor of the Tiece Army in the Battle of Zhongli and the one who taught them swordsmanship.

Li Sanyu himself was one of the prisoners selected by Lin Yi in Tongshan Prison, and the reason why he was detained in Tongshan Prison was because the local county guard privately withheld the disaster relief money and grain and did not use it for disaster relief and misappropriated it for other purposes.

Li Sanyu's ancestors also secretly did some tomb robbery business, but what made Lin Yi value Li Sanyu was because even Li Sanyu's ancestors were quite chivalrous, and they generally only went to steal the tombs of rich families when their own or neighbors' lives were unsustainable. Occasionally, with some savings, Li Sanyu's ancestors did not spend much money for their own enjoyment, but used some poor children's treatment expenses.

Li Sanyu has been very poor for several generations, but there is a local medical center, but it often administers medicine for free to help those who look down on the disease, and the cost of which has always been paid by the Li family.

Li Sanyu's crime of stealing the treasury of the government is extremely serious, and according to the rules, he will be beheaded for public display, and his family will also be assigned to the border as slaves. But when Li Sanyu was arrested, the people were directly angry and the people were in turmoil, and the county guard was also imprisoned, but Li Sanyu was not beheaded, and was accepted in Tongshan Prison to serve hard labor.

Li Sanyu's own generation did not make a living as a tomb robber, but his ancestors also passed on some basic skills, he was not a cultivator before he was selected by Lin Yi to join the Tie Ce Army, but he also had quite a lot of martial arts, before the Tie Ce Army secretly built the lead room, he was also the first batch of the Tie Ce Army to successfully condense the yellow buds.

Chen Song was his commander in the Tiece Army, and this time it was different from the military affairs he performed, but when he arrived here, he was almost on the same road, Chen Song was going to a workshop in Qiaolu Town, and he was going to pass through Qiaolu Town.

But around sunrise today, he found that Chen Song had disappeared near the horse market.

The caravans passing near the horse market were a little messy, but Li Sanyu originally spoke with a local accent, and it sounded no obstacle to talking to people, so he quickly inquired that the caravan had also asked people about Chen Song before.

Tie Cejun's people are all wearing civilian clothes when they are out on business, and ordinary people don't know their identities at all, but Li Sanyu knows in his heart that the line that Chen Song has been walking has been going back and forth to this workshop twice, so if someone in the workshop leaks the news, then Chen Song's identity will naturally be exposed.

Li Sanyu locked on to his target, but he did not rush to approach the caravan that did not know the number of routes, he pretended to be a small merchant who went to the leather and dry goods market on the edge of the horse market to buy some furs and dried bamboo shoots and other goods.

It took him less than half an hour to wander among the merchants, and he was easily sure that there was something very wrong with the caravan.

This caravan is actually all accents in the Wuzhong area, silkworms are abundant in silk in the Wuzhong area, and as long as the people with the Wuzhong accent in the Badong County area go to the area on weekdays, nine times out of ten they are silk merchants, and occasionally they also do some cotton cloth business.

However, this caravan was not in the silk and cloth business, but they sold spices.

If it is the kind of high-quality agarwood, refined musk, sandalwood and other spices, that kind of spice is indeed very popular in the Western Regions, and the price is high, but the spices used by these people to trade are some spices used to accompany dishes. The price of these spices is not as good as some dried mushrooms in Patong County, and most importantly, this caravan did not carry much goods, with two wagons at the end and two wagons at the end and seven wagons carrying people.

Even if these people sell these goods at a good price, I am afraid that they will not be able to cover the labor money that these people have come from afar.

These people don't do any other business at all, and negotiating with people to sell these spices is also a dispensable lazy strength, as long as someone takes a serious look, the first conclusion is that this caravan is not a serious caravan at all, but has other plans.

And just looking at the looks of some of them, Li Sanyu felt that they had already done things here, and they had no patience to stay longer.

These people only sold a fraction of the goods next, and they were already preparing to leave.

During this time, Li Sanyu found that the people in this caravan were very guarded by the five carriages, and obviously deliberately did not let people approach the five carriages.

Except for the two or three people who were walking around talking about goods, there were sixteen or seventeen people who showed up, and most of them didn't look overly strong, but they all gave him a feeling of vitality.

In particular, the few people walking outside the five carriages were all equipped with exquisite scabbards around their waists, and they were obviously swordsmen who were good at using swords.

Li Sanyu hesitated for a moment, he first found a horse gang that did business with the party members, spent some silver taels to ask them to help him bring a letter, and then returned to the previous horse market.

In that horse market, he found the local man who had tamed the horse before.

"Brother, what's your name, I have a job I want you to do. He said hello and got straight to the point.

"What's the job?"

The man who tamed the horse looked at him suspiciously, "My name is Hu Benshan." ”

"My name is Li Sanyu. ”

Li Sanyu pulled the man who tamed the horse aside and whispered directly in his ear: "Don't make a fuss and don't make a noise, I am the person of General Lin of the Tiece Army, and now I have an important matter and I want your help." ”

"What!"

The man who tamed the horse jumped for a moment, but then came back to his senses, and looked at him with round eyes, as if he was questioning the truth of it.

"One of our brothers has a problem, but I'm afraid I can't handle it alone, I have asked the rest of the people to send a message to General Lin, but I am afraid it will not be safe. Li Sanyu took out a cloth bag from his sleeve and stuffed it into the hand of the horse-taming man, "You don't have to do anything, you just need to help me make a trip, and when you get to the Qanaba closest to the territory of the party, you go to the party people there and tell them that a military officer named Chen Song has fallen into the hands of a caravan with a Wuzhong accent, and he may have been killed or taken captive." ”

The man who tamed the horse only felt that the cloth bag was heavy, and it was obviously full of money, and he didn't believe it at first, but when he heard that he was asked to bring a letter to the party members, and he heard that it was such a message, he suddenly became nervous, and there was a trace of fear in the nervousness.

But in the next moment, he immediately stuffed the cloth bag to Li Sanyu, and said softly: "Brother Li, it is my honor to do things for your Tie Cejun and General Lin, how can I accept your money." Don't worry, it's this errand thing, I will definitely help you do it. ”

"It's not big, it's not small. Li Sanyu shook his head, let the man hold the cloth bag, and said: "You have nothing to do with our Tie Ce Army, and no one should suspect it along the way, but since there are people dealing with Tie Ce Army, I always feel a little dangerous, so before you arrive at Kareba, don't let people know that you are sending a message for our Tie Ce Army." ”

"Don't worry, sometimes I go to collect wild horses, and I go over there. The horse tamer patted Li Sanyu on the shoulder, "Be careful yourself." ”

"Then leave it at that. ”

Li Sanyu didn't say much, he saw that the caravan had already set off, so he directly said goodbye to the horse tamer and followed behind from a distance.

This caravan was unhurried when it was doing business, but after it set off, it suddenly changed its spirit, and the speed was extremely fast, and the drivers who drove it were also tired, and they all sat upright from a distance, and there was a solemn atmosphere.
