Chapter Seventy-Six: Lu Long Appears
The yellow beard was dull-eyed, his face was gray, and he had a long arrow stuck in his chest, and he couldn't live when he saw it.
Duan You tore off his yellow-bearded robe, connected several acupuncture points around the long arrow, stopped the bleeding, and asked, "That person is Yao Yi?"
Yellowbeard nodded, looking at Duan You, as if he still had something to say, his eyes hesitated, but he closed his mouth.
Boss You said: "Brother Yellowbeard, you and I have worked together, and we have some affection, so let's just say it clearly, Yao Yi is such a vicious person, how can you be with him, but why does he want to kill you?"
Duan You's mind suddenly had a flash of inspiration, and he asked Yellowbeard: "Did you follow him to Yangtho City a few months ago?" Seeing Yellowbeard nodding, he asked again, "It was he who made you avoid Yan Ji and the others and connect with the person in the city alone, and that person told you about Duan Bai and Duan Kui's home, who is that person?"
Yellowbeard was hesitating when an iron rod suddenly came to the ground and slammed it on his head, killing him instantly. Immediately, Du Qing's voice sounded: "Such a thief, kill clean!"
Duan Youyi waved out a palm, Du Qing flew out sideways, and saw Du Cunjiang fleeing in panic.
Duan You snorted coldly, a stone flew out, and Du Cunjiang staggered to the ground.
This sudden change was abrupt, and Yao Ren and the others didn't know it, but they saw Duan Feng jumping forward, kicking Du Cunjiang's waist, and said angrily: "It turns out that the spy is your uncle and nephew?"
A few months ago, Yan Ji, the general of Yao Qinguo, led people to attack Yang Tho Baa City at night, arrested Duan Bai and Duan Kui's family, and a masked man led the way.
In one day, accidents occurred frequently, Duan You couldn't think about them one by one, and saw that many people from the beggar gang had come down from the mountain, so he ordered Zhu Yuan to shout at the brothers to go up the mountain and invite Jin Xin.
Jin Xin wanted to leave. He and Duan You walked aside, took out a letter and handed it to Duan You and said: "This is a letter written by the head of the sect in the city lord of Yang Tho Ba City, saying that the ambition of our sect is in Jindi, and there is no intention to conflict with Yang Tho Baa City. β
Duan Youdao: "This is very good, why does Brother Jin want to come here to deliver the message?"
Jin Xin smiled and said, "I was originally in Jianye, and I heard that Brother Duan was here to help, so I came to congratulate you." With that, he drifted away.
Back on the mountain, Duan You announced that Tang Heizi and Tian Busheng were the main and deputy helmsmen of Chang'an, and then stood on a high place, reiterating the three iron laws of the beggar gang and the twelve gang rules.
The beggar gang conference is officially over.
At this time, the sun had already set, and Fuqu Muqian, Tuoba Leiyun and others said goodbye. Duan has an order, all the gangs, stay in Suwu Mountain, early tomorrow morning, go back to various places, not to stay, nuisance to the place.
That night, Duan You, Zhu Yuan, Yao Ren, Shi Kai, Yao Wudi, Yao Wandi, Duan Feng, and Tang Heizi gathered in the cave to discuss the matter, and it was agreed that Duan You, Yao Ren, Shi Kai, Yao Wudi, Yao Wandi, Tang Heizi, and others would go to Chang'an with Yao Ren, Shi Kai, Yao Wudi, Yao Wandi, Tang Heizi, and others; Zhu Yuan was responsible for dismissing the gang, and then rushed to Chang'an with Chen Bao and Chen Chang; after Duan Feng and the other disciples of Ruian Mansion returned to Gaogou Fort, they escorted Du Cunjiang and Du Qing with Duan Kui, Meng Xiaosi, and Cai Xiaowu to Yangtho City, and handed them over to the city lord Gao Qianshan. The two of them have been abolished by Shi Kai, and there will be no accidents on the road.
On this day, Duan Youyou and everyone arrived in Chang'an. But see Chang'an City majestic and majestic, a royal atmosphere, the city wall is four zhang high, can be counted in parallel, the moat outside the wall is three zhang wide, deep Xu. After entering the city from the north of the city, I saw palaces everywhere, magnificent. There are eight streets and nine mos in the city, merchants gathered, people are on the ground, and the scene of the capital of the dynasty is at the end.
When entering the city, Yao Ren, Yao Invincible, and Yao Wandi changed their costumes and dressed up as incarnators. Duan Youjian saw it, and said in his heart, it seems that Yao Ren's encounter is quite sinister. He hesitated and wanted to find a place to stay outside the city, but Yao Ren just said nothing.
A few people found an inn in the back, and as soon as they checked in, they saw two people coming straight to Yao Ren's room.
After a while, Yao Ren went to Duan You's room and said, "Senior brother, we can't live here, we have to go out of the city." β
It turned out that the person who came was a disciple of the Qiang Gang, Ji Manwei, whose identity was not exposed, and the official was an auxiliary general. When Duan You and Yao Ren entered the city, he happened to be near the left side of Luomen, and although Yao Ren had changed his appearance, he was still recognized by him at a glance, so he secretly followed with a personal soldier.
A few days ago, the prince Yao Bi ordered Yao Ren's father and family to be expelled from Chang'an City, and sent someone to secretly search for Yao Ren.
After a while, thirty or forty sergeants suddenly came into the inn, all riding tall horses, and as soon as they entered the inn, they closed the door, and the shopkeeper and the shopkeeper shrank into a ball.
Duan You was just about to prepare for the battle, but Yao Ren said, "It's the person who gathers Manwei." I saw Ji Manwei and three or four sergeants come in, hugged eight or nine sets of sergeant clothes, asked Duan Youren to change into them, and then went out and rode horses, surrounded by all sergeants, and went to the east of the Qingming faΓ§ade. He rode at the front.
There is a house in the north of the city that is idle, but he took Duan You, Yao Ren and others to the east gate. Duan You secretly admired this person's thoughtfulness.
As soon as I arrived at Qingming Gate, an accident appeared.
But seeing a large group of sergeants coming from outside the city, the first few people rode on horses, and the guards at the gate brushed and bowed, it was the prince Yao Bi, and among the people behind him, one was handsome and dignified, it was Yao Yi - Lu Long!
The people of Manwei had already dismounted and were on the inside of the city gate. Except for Ji Manwei, Duan You and Yao Ren all stood beside the horses, bowing their heads and hanging their hands. When he dismounted, Duan You had pinned the bamboo stick under the saddle and hid it on the side of the horse's back.
Yao Bi rode his horse slowly, and when he approached Manwei, he bowed and saluted. Yao Bi rode on a horse, looked arrogant, and said to Ji Manwei: "General Ji, you saw Yao Hong and sent him a message, and my father called me to serve in the palace. β
Yao Hong is the current crown prince, Yao Bi said this to him, nothing more than to show off his favor, he has replaced the prince to face his father's illness, and let him weigh the situation.
Ji Manwei hurriedly clenched his fists and said: "The prince is hard, there is a prince who is sick, the emperor is worry-free, and as for the prince, the last general has not seen him for a few days." β
Yao Bi snorted, and was about to call the horse to start, but Lu Long said: "General, the last general has a stomach, and it is inconvenient to dismount, please bear with me, I heard that you have a friendship with the thief Yao Ren, has he ever come to hide in your army? Among you sergeants, is there Yao Ren?"
Duan You was shocked in his heart, and thought: If he is discovered, he can't say anything, he can only kill Lu Long immediately and hold Yao Bi hostage!
Listening to Ji Manwei's sharp voice, he said: "General Yao, in front of many sergeants, what do you mean by your remarks? Please respect yourself!"
Lu Long smiled, Yao Bi had already ridden his horse, so he no longer entangled, and followed the entourage, and hundreds of sergeants rushed in and passed by.
After leaving the Qingming Gate, Ji Manwei led the team to the north. couldn't go far, Duan You suddenly called Manwei and said that he would not go to his mansion in the north of the city, and it was better to find a place outside the city.
Yao Ren also agreed with Duan You's meaning and said, "Yao Yi...... Lu Long, since he is already suspicious, he will secretly investigate, brother, we are indeed careless, you must not be wrong. β
When they arrived at a secluded place, several people took off their sergeant clothes, and after Manwei left, several people went around to the south of the city and found a dilapidated courtyard to live in.
In the hearts of a few people, they are much more down-to-earth. Yao Ren said with a smile: "I have become a child, and I live in this dilapidated house, but I am stable."
Duan You consulted with everyone and divided several people into three groups, each performing its own duties: Duan You and Shi Kai were responsible for dealing with Lu Long, Yao Ren, Yao Wudi, and Yao Wandi were responsible for dealing with Yao Bi, and Tang Heizi was responsible for receiving Tian Busheng and other Chang'an rudder gangs who came from Liangzhou, and inquired about the whereabouts of Chen Hua and Lu Hua.
At night, Duan You and Yao Ren left their residences, and outside Chang'an City, the five of them crossed the wall and entered, Duan You and Shi Kai went to Lulong's mansion, but Yao Ren and the three of them went straight to the crown prince's mansion - persuading the crown prince Yao Hong to take the initiative to serve the emperor Yao Xing. In this way, Yao Bi was able to leave the palace and return home.
When Duan You and Shi Kai arrived at Lulong's Mansion, they saw that the surroundings were dark and gloomy, and there were no sergeants standing guard at the gate. The two of them silently jumped in from the side wall, and after a few ups and downs, they fell on the ridge of the roof.
Once Lu Long entered the hospital, Duan You jumped down from the house, and one blow was sure to hit, and Shi Kai blocked the people around Lu Long. The two agreed that it would be best to capture them alive and kill them as a last resort.
After the hour, no one was moving in the house, and the lights in the houses were extinguished one after another, and there was silence all around.
Suddenly, Shi Kai poked Duan lightly and motioned him to look at a tree in the courtyard, but saw that at the branch of the big tree, a black shadow was clinging to the trunk of the tree, lying still.
Duan You had already discovered that there was someone on the tree, and knew that the person was earlier than him and Shi Kai, so he should have discovered them. That person has never been drunk, and it is very likely that he is also Lu Long's enemy, and has the same purpose as them.
Until dawn, before Lu Long returned home, the man on the tree slid down like a tanuki and jumped out of the side wall. Duan You and Shi Kai also evacuated, wanting to catch up and ask what was going on, but they didn't think it was necessary, so they kept going out of the city all the way back to the hospital.
Soon, Yao Ren and the three also came back, saying that they had met the crown prince Yao Hong, and Yao Hong said that he would go to the queen mother to intercede and serve the sick today. And said that the emperor should be very ill this time, the imperial doctors in the palace, the princes all have their own hearts, move around frequently, Yao Bi's heart to seize the heir, it is obvious that the entire Chang'an, has shown a trend of mountain rain is coming.
Duan You and Shi Kai stayed in Lulong Mansion for another night, but there was still no trace of him, and the person on the tree the night before was lying in wait for the night on a private house dozens of zhang away.
Duan You and Shi Kai left Lulong Mansion and searched for medical halls in Chang'an City to inquire about Lu Hua and Ling'er. After noon, he suddenly saw a gang of disciples with Tang Heizi coming sweating profusely, and hurriedly said: "Helper, Elder Shi, Lord Tang Helm asked me to report that Lu Long and Lu Hua went out of the east of the city this morning and went to the southeast, and Lord Tang Helm has tracked them down. I searched all morning before I found the helper and the elders. β
As soon as the two heard this, they hurried to their residence in the south of the city, rode their horses, and chased them southeast. (Go to Zongheng Chinese Network to see the genuine version of "Following the Absolute Ring")
