Chapter 763: Visit
Five days later, in the early morning, at three o'clock, Quanyang Town, about thirty miles away from Canglongmen, was still pitch black.
In the past, the scouts of Canglongmen rarely appeared here, because this distance happened to exceed the thirty-mile patrol cordon that Xu Yang had set for them before.
However, at this moment, the eight members of the third squad of the Canglongmen Scouts, led by Wu Shixun, were clinging to the root of the wall, walking through a dark alley in Quanyang Town.
Dressed in nocturnal attire, they almost completely blended into the dark night, and the soft-soled fast boots under their feet made their footsteps indistinguishable.
At the end of the alley is the main street of Quanyang Town.
Out of this alley, turn to the right, is the only inn in Quanyang Town.
Compared to the darkness in the alleys, although the main street in Quanyang Town is also empty, it is somewhat light.
No, under the eaves of the inn, there is a dimly lit air death lamp.
The bean-yellow light, even if it can barely illuminate the signboard of the Lufeng Inn hanging next to it, but in this dark night, it looks particularly conspicuous.
The third squad of the Canglongmen scouts, who were clinging to the alley wall, had no intention of getting together under the dead wind lamp.
When they came to the fence of the backyard of the Lufeng Inn, they cautiously stopped their progress.
At this time, the two watchdogs lying in the backyard of the Lufeng Inn seemed to have noticed movement outside the wall.
Although the two watchdogs could not see beyond the fence, they stood up from the ground with great alertness, and then put their ears up, and at the same time bared their teeth and prepared to bark wildly.
It's a pity that at this time, a few meat buns fell from the sky, which instantly made them change their minds.
In the next second, the two watchdogs, who were originally going to bark at the sky, immediately wagged their tails and pounced on the fragrant meat buns.
But the consequences of gluttony are not very good.
A moment later, the two watchdogs, who had changed their stance because of a few meat buns, whimpered softly twice in their mouths like drunkards, and fell down softly.
Outside the wall, Wu Shixun, whose ears were close to the heel of the wall, breathed a sigh of relief.
In the past five days, their scout team has been fully dispatched to thoroughly investigate the towns and towns that Xu Yang passed through when he returned to Taiping Town, from near to far.
In the end, they locked their suspicions on a traveler who had lived in the Lufeng Inn for two months.
Without him, just because after some investigation, they found that this unknown traveler, although under the guise of purchasing medicinal materials, was wandering at the intersection leading to Canglongmen all day long, and the most important thing was that I heard that this guy actually kept a few birds.
Everyone was very busy during the day and had to sleep at night, so they decided to come over in the early hours of this morning to visit this foreign herb merchant and exchange tips on bird farming.
When there was no movement in the wall, Wu Shixun gently patted the shoulder of the guy behind him, and then took the two team members and jumped directly into the backyard of the Lufeng Inn.
Looking at the two guard dogs lying in the backyard, the corners of Wu Shixun's mouth twitched slightly, if he hadn't heard the little second man say that these two dogs were too greedy during the day, he could only take the risk of using other coercive means.
Immediately, Wu Shixun took out a dagger he carried with him and gently pulled out the latch of the back door of the inn.
After a few moments, they followed the stairs to the door of the last room at the end of the passage on the second floor.
Wu Shixun, who led the team to carry out this kind of capture task for the first time, exhaled softly, as if he wanted to exhale his slightly nervous mood with this breath.
After stabilizing his mind, Wu Shixun took out the dagger again and gently inserted it into the crack of the door, intending to concoct it in the same way.
It's just that Wu Shixun, who was on the arrest mission for the first time, couldn't have imagined that the guy who lived in this room actually did something on the door latch.
After a few fiddling sessions, he quickly pulled the latch open.
But the problem is that at the moment when the latch of the door was pulled open, I only heard a "bang", and the sound of a heavy object falling to the ground came from inside the door.
At this time, even if Wu Shixun had no experience, he secretly screamed in his heart.
The next second, I saw him slam the door open with his shoulder without hesitation, and then quickly rushed into the room.
Wu Shixun's reaction speed is not slow, but the reaction speed of the guy in the room is faster than him.
In fact, the moment he heard the heavy object fall to the ground, the so-called herb merchant, who suddenly woke up, subconsciously jumped out of the window facing the street.
The people who eat this bowl of rice only dare to close one eye when they sleep, and this escape route has been planned a long time ago.
This guy is indeed alert enough, and his reaction speed is also very fast, which caused Wu Shixun, who broke through the door, to pounce directly.
It's a pity that when he broke out of the window facing the street, this guy showed a look of despair.
Because at this time, his body was floating in the air and he couldn't complete the turn at all, but he actually found that under the window facing the street, there was a fishing net that had been stretched out, quietly waiting for his arrival.
At midnight, the eastern sky began to turn white, and then a red sun leaped from below the horizon.
In Canglongmen, Xu Yang has already started a busy day.
Today, on the day of his engagement to Miss Zhao, he still had to come to the kitchen of Huiweiju early in the morning to help.
No way, today's simple and not simple engagement banquet, some dishes are not done by the masters in the recollection, Xu Dawei is afraid that those guys will spoil the ingredients, so the clapper must be checked by Xu Yang himself.
In this regard, Xu Yang didn't dare to have any dissatisfaction, who called this his own engagement banquet?
Therefore, in the past few days, in order to prepare those ingredients, Xu Yang's legs have run thin, but he has no complaints.
Before noon, the kitchen of Huiweiju was already busy.
Xu Yang was busy on the side, reminiscing about the masters in the house, and no one dared to slack off.
Xu Yang, the engagement banquet of the big boss of Huiwei Ju, unless they don't want to continue to work in Huiwei Ju, otherwise, even if they borrow a hundred guts, they don't dare to make any restless moves.
In contrast, Liu Xiaohu, who was pulled by Xu Yang, looked depressed.
In the past few days, in order to purchase some special ingredients, Xu Yang has indeed been busy, but Liu Xiaohu has not been idle.
Because since the first day, Liu Xiaohu has been by Xu Yang's side.
So at this moment, Liu Xiaohu, who was washing vegetables on the side, couldn't help but squirt at Xu Yang, "Uncle, you are engaged, why should I be busy breaking my leg?"
