Gao Qianshan immediately ordered, and Gao Yuefei personally ordered the list of sixty sergeants, and asked the captain general guarding the city lord's mansion to take Duan Kui and Deng Yu'er directly to the barracks.

After Duan Kui and Deng Yu'er left, Duan Youcai told the guess that the one-eyed ghost had come to Yangtho City. Gao Qianshan said angrily: "Such a despicable villain actually used this as a means to blackmail me, not to mention that Brother Bai and Brother Kui were kind to me back then, but they didn't know each other, and he didn't want to take them away!" asked Duan You again, "You said that your sister Ling'er might also come here?" Okay, okay, Fei'er, you immediately arrange it and inquire from door to door in the whole city." ”

Gao Yuefei was just about to go out, Duan You said: "Brother Yuefei, don't worry, it's important to save Miss." He also said to Gao Qianshan, "The one-eyed ghost is here, since he has caught a locust snake, he will bring a seven-legged colored snake with an antidote, and I intend to post a notice in the city, saying that the lady has a strange poison in her body, and there is a person who can cure it, and the one-eyed ghost is expected to come, this is one of them." Second, send soldiers to guard Uncle Bai and Uncle Kui's house, if the one-eyed ghost finds Uncle Bai's residence from elsewhere, it will just catch a turtle in Weng. Third, send people to search everywhere inside and outside the city, find Ling'er in the open, and catch the one-eyed ghost in secret, this matter must be kept secret, so as not to startle the snake and let it escape. ”

After such an arrangement, Gao Qianshan exclaimed: "Virtuous nephews and great talents, rare and rare!"

Early the next morning, there was a report from Pegasus, a soldier who guarded the list: someone unveiled the list!

The person who unveiled the list was not a one-eyed ghost, but a tall curly-haired man with a Liangzhou accent.

Duan did not return at night, and stayed in the city lord's mansion with the imperial doctor of Chu. After learning the news, Gao Qianshan immediately sent someone to invite the two to the front hall to discuss with Gao Yuefei, a total of four people.

After the discussion was completed, the gatekeeper came to report: the unveiler had arrived.

Duan You's head was wrapped in a scarf, his body was belted, he pretended to be a follower, and flew to the gate of the mansion with Gao Yue. When I saw that there were fifty or sixty people at the door, noisy and shouting, there were sergeants, and there were people who came to see the excitement, and there were eight or nine men with dark faces and Liangzhou people's dress, and the leader was with thick eyebrows and broad faces, big shoulders and thick waists, and he was holding the list in his hand.

As soon as the curly-haired man saw Gao Yuefei, he stepped forward and saluted: "Liangzhou Lu Wei, meet the general." ”

Gao Yuefei also saluted: "Brother Lu has come from afar to work hard, and my father is waiting in the front hall, please come in." ”

After Lu Wei and the others entered the door, Duan You took a closer look, and there were indeed no one-eyed ghosts among the eight or nine people.

The group arrived at the front hall and met with the city lord Gao Qianshan, and the imperial doctor of Chu told Miss Gao Xin'er about the symptoms of poisoning.

After hearing this, Lu Wei opened his mouth and said: "Listen to what the imperial doctor said, the poison in the city lord's beloved daughter is devoured by locusts and snakes, and we have a master in Liangzhou who can solve it, and this person is now in the Erhe River." ”

Gao Qianshan hurriedly said: "Hurry up and ask this master to detoxify the little girl." ”

Duan You couldn't help but want to laugh, this Lu Wei was too anxious, and without personally verifying it, he concluded that Gao Xin'er was poisoned by a locust snake!

Lu Wei looked embarrassed and said: "It is not difficult for this master to detoxify, but he has a heart disease, and he can only come after this heart disease." ”

"What's the heart disease?" Gao Qianshan said, "I can raise the power of the whole city to get rid of the heart disease of the masters." ”

"Good!" said Lu Wei, "the city lord is happy, this heart disease is removed, and it is easy for the city lord to get rid of it." Seeing Gao Qianshan smiling at him, he continued, "This person has a nephew, who was originally from Liangzhou Houliangguo, surnamed Duan Mingbai, who left his mother nine years ago and came to settle in Guicheng. Now his mother is lonely, looking forward to his son's heart, this master is an uncle, thousands of miles away, and wants to take Duan Bai and his family back to Liangzhou to support his mother, fulfill filial piety, and ask the city lord to complete. ”

Duan You couldn't help but laugh out loud. Lu Wei is really a master of making up lies, what he says is emotional and reasonable, and he is humble and polite, if Duan You didn't know what he meant, Gao Qianshan, Gao Yuefei and others would definitely believe it. At the same time, he secretly said in his heart, this Lu Wei is really powerful, and he can actually find out Duan Bai's name.

Gao Qianshan said: "This matter is not difficult, Baishan filial piety comes first, knowing that his mother is still alive, Duan Bai should return to his hometown to fulfill his filial piety, and also asked Mr. Lu to invite the master to come to treat the little girl, after the little girl recovered, I should order Duan Bai to return to Liangzhou." ”

Lu Wei said: "I also mean the same, but the master is not followed, he must see Duan Bai and his family first, and we will escort them away before they are willing to enter the city to treat Ling Yuan." ”

Gao Qianshan's face sank: "He is blackmailing!"

Lu Wei said: "I also refute him like this, but he is stubborn and does not listen. ”

Gao Qianshan said: "I'll go see him and promise in person." ”

He made it clear that he would not see Duan Bai and swore not to show up. Lu Wei spread his hands and looked helpless.

Gao Qianshan was breathless and speechless. On the side, the imperial doctor of Chu said: "City Lord, Miss's life is at stake, can you follow that master, quickly send Duan Bai's family here, hand it over to Mr. Lu, and go to see that master?"

Gao Yuefei also said: "Duan Baike has lived in Yangtho City for nine years, and his mother does not return to his hometown, because he is not filial, let him return quickly, there is nothing wrong, Sister Xin's life is important, father, give an order quickly." ”

Gao Qianshan sighed and finally agreed. Gao Yuefei said that I would personally summon him, and walked with Duan You to the outside of the hall. Lu Wei hurriedly said: "The general doesn't have to go in person, just let that little guy summon him, isn't the general going, Duan Bai still doesn't listen to the orders of the city lord?"

Gao Yuefei had to stay. In Lu Wei's eyes, Duan Younai is an inconspicuous little guy, but he is exactly what Duan You wants, when Duan Bai's family goes out of the city, Lu Wei will definitely ask the city lord to send someone to a safe place, and he can just accompany him.

Duan You went out of the gate of the city lord's mansion, just got on the horse, and suddenly saw a familiar figure probe in the corner of the wall, that is, he rode a horse to arrive, the man dodged to hide, Duan You shouted in a deep voice: "Meng Xiaosi, come here." ”

Meng Xiaosi was stunned, and then bowed: "I've seen Master!" It is Duan You's outer disciples who were accepted in Gaogou Fort.

Duan You asked, "What about Zhu Yuan?"

Meng Xiaosi replied: "Outside the city, follow the one-eyed ghost." ”

Duan You was overjoyed, and then asked a few words, only to know that Zhu Yuan took Meng Xiaosi and Cai Xiaowu, along the mark left by Duan Jing, all the way south, and when they reached the boundary of Yangtho City, they finally caught up with the one-eyed ghost and others. The one-eyed ghost and his entourage plus Duan Jing have a total of ten people, and the person at the head is Lu Wei.

Several people have been here for several days, sleeping in the mountains and forests outside the city, and people enter the city every day to investigate. Three days ago, the one-eyed ghost went out alone and traveled to the Erhe River to experience a Songkran Festival, that is, he could not come out of hibernation. Until early this morning, I suddenly saw Lu Wei leading people to ride straight to the city gate, but the one-eyed ghost and Duan Jing did not accompany him. Zhu Yuan immediately sent Meng Xiaosi to follow Lu Wei into the city, and he and Cai Xiaowu followed the one-eyed ghost.

Duan You immediately returned to the gate of the City Lord's Mansion, and did not get off the horse, let a soldier guarding the gate go to summon Duan Bai, and when he turned around, Meng Xiaosi had already taken out his horse from the corner of the wall, and the two of them rode quickly, and they quickly headed towards the north city gate.

More than ten miles out of the city, at the bend of the official road, two people suddenly came out of the forest on the side of the road, the locals were dressed up and holding sticks, it was Zhu Yuan and Cai Xiaowu.

After Zhu Yuan and Cai Xiaowu met Duan You, Zhu Yuan reported the position of the one-eyed ghost to Duan You.

The hiding place of the one-eyed ghost is in the forest at the next bend in front of the official road, and there are two or three hundred zhang straight roads in between, and there is an unobstructed view. Duan You saw it and secretly admired it, this Lu Wei or the one-eyed ghost was quite scheming, if the person here showed up and couldn't see Duan Bai, or Lu Wei gave a gesture, the one-eyed ghost could escape or hide.

Duan You frowned, thought about it, called Zhu Yuan and the other three, and after arranging it like this, Zhu Yuan jumped on his horse and rushed straight along the road.

After Zhu Yuan rushed out of more than 30 zhang, Meng Xiaosi and Cai Xiaowu also got on their horses and chased after Zhu Yuan, shouting in their mouths-

"Brother Duan Yuan, don't run, Brother Duan Yuan, don't run!"

"Brother Duan Yuan, Uncle Duan Bai told you to go back!"

.........

Seeing that Zhu Yuan had reached the turn in front of him, two figures suddenly emerged from the forest, also dressed as locals, holding two mountain-opening axes in one hand, laughing, the sound of pig iron grinding came from afar, Duan You was very familiar: it was the one-eyed ghost Erri Dunbari! The other person was Duan Jing.

Seeing Zhu Yuan hurriedly turn around, ride the horse back and run, the one-eyed ghost roared: "Boy, where to run!" An axe was thrown, hitting the horse's hind legs, and the horse neighed and fell to the ground.

Zhu Yuan rolled up, holding a stick, and fought with the one-eyed ghost to one place, and Meng Xiaosi and Cai Xiaowu arrived later.

Zhu Yuan shouted: "Little four and little five, you two sweep the formation, watch me fight the one-eyed ghost alone!"

During his time, he had already arrived at the horse, and saw that Zhu Yuan's stick made him fly up and down, and he was inseparable from the one-eyed ghost's double axe, and after appreciation, a stone flew out of his hand, hitting the one-eyed ghost's temple.

Before the one-eyed ghost fell to the ground, Duan You had already flown from his horse, touched his waist, took out two bamboo tubes, pulled them out and took a look, and the sound in the tubes was two four-legged colored snakes!

Duan You was overjoyed, he didn't care about greeting Duan Jing, and said to Zhu Yuan, "Tie up, hurry into the city to the city lord's mansion!" and immediately flew on his horse and galloped towards the city.

As soon as I arrived at the north city gate, I saw more than ten horsemen slowly coming out of the city, with eight or nine riding in front and two riding behind, one of which was Lu Wei. Dozens of feet away, Gao Yuefei led dozens of sergeants to follow on horseback.

In the middle of the eight or nine horses in front, it was the city lord Gao Qianshan and a big man riding on the same horse, Duan Bai and his wife on both sides each riding a horse, holding the child in their arms, obviously Lu Wei hijacked Gao Qianshan to escort him.

Duan You was furious, this Lu Wei was really hateful, he dared to hold the city lord hostage! That is, he accelerated his horse and rushed to the front, the stone in his hand had already popped out, and he was in the middle of the high mountain and the horse was on the back of the big man. Gao Qianshan's reaction was also extremely fast, and with a backhand elbow, he pestled the big man under the horse, and then a man next to Duan Bai's wife fell to the ground, and Duan Youfei was hit by a flying stone.

Duan Youlike entered the flock like a tiger, hitting the dog stick, and the middle ones fell off their horses one after another, and Duan Bai on the side protected his wife and children, waving a horse whip and whipping the enemy. Gao Qianshan fought with Lu Wei. Duan You didn't stop talking, and when Lu Wei approached, he was ruthless in his heart, and he poked straight through the bamboo stick, poof, and hit Lu Wei's ear acupoint, Lu Wei immediately fainted and was planted under the horse.

At this time, Gao Yuefei had already arrived with the sergeant, and Duan You said to Gao Qianshan, "The antidote is in hand!"

Gao Qianshan was overjoyed, and ordered Gao Yuefei: "Don't kill it!" and rushed to the City Lord's Mansion with Duan You.

Duan You wanted to stay alive, but Gao Qianshan gave a death order first, thinking that he was very angry and angry, so he didn't speak.
