Chapter 32: Do a Little Thing
3 Mo Qingzhi first took Xiang Junhao to hide in the firewood room in the corner of the courtyard far away from the main house, and then slowly sensed the situation inside with Lingqi. After a while, Mo Qingzhi said to Xiang Junhao: The actual situation seems to be consistent with the information sent, this is a secret base, and the people here are all wearing navy blue military uniforms, which are the same as the Yan family warrior military uniforms you found in the valley.
At this time, the main gate of the compound was knocked on, and I saw that the guards in the door opened the door in a secret language and let the people in, and the people who came were all wearing black military uniforms of the Yueshan Dart Bureau, and it seemed that they were all dart masters who sent darts, and the Yueshan Dart Bureau was opened by Mu Jia. After a while, more people in navy blue military uniforms led their horses from behind and came to the trucks by the courtyard wall, so the two groups of people began to tie the horses and pick up the tarpaulin. After a long time, the carriage was set up, and when everyone was about to set off, a few people came back from outside the door, and seeing the respectful appearance of the other navy blue warriors to one of the people in gray-green clothes and the polite appearance of the dart head, it seemed that this person must be the leader of the group of people in navy blue military uniforms.
However, Xiang Junhao was really surprised when he saw that the leader turned around and congratulated the dart head, that person was the one who surrounded and killed them in front of the collapsed mountain in the Valley of Ten Thousand Beasts in Xuetian, and was later rescued by Yan Zhihao alone. After everyone said goodbye, the carriages were quietly driven away from the compound by the people of the Yueshan Dart Bureau, and the courtyard gate was closed again, and everyone returned to the room, except for the few fixed guards and the one who left to clean the courtyard, everything seemed to have never happened. When the man finished cleaning most of the place and came to the firewood room, Xiang Junhao leaned out at the right time, took him hostage into the firewood room, and tied him up. The firewood house is in a corner of the courtyard, far away from the center of the courtyard and the gate, and the door is not in the sight of the guards, so it is extremely hidden to do things here.
At this moment, Xiang Junhao and Mo Qingzhi both brought a pair of masks that they bought on the way to disguise themselves, and then Xiang Junhao took out a steel short blade and compared the tip of the knife to the crotch of the person under the instruction of Mo Qingzhi. At the same time, he began to look through the lining of the man's military uniform, and sure enough, he found the embroidered word "Yan" inside.
Mo Qingzhi on the side saw that he was ready, so he changed his accent and tone and said to the man: My little brother has a bad temper recently, and it is easy to slip his hands, if the questions you answer are not the ones asked, then my little brother is angry and slips with one hand, you may be able to feel the seriousness of the consequences.
After that, he poked the tip of the knife downward to put some pressure on the kidnapped person, and the person looked like a brave person who had experienced this scene and immediately coaxed, and begged for mercy with a little bitterness: Two masters, you ask me to answer, I will not dare to hide it... Oh, don't slip your hands...
Mo Qingzhi continued to ask: First, who are you? Second, what are you doing here? Third, how many people are there here? Fourth, are there any of your people in other places? Fifth, what kind of goods did you just take away? Sixth, where is this batch of goods to? You think carefully about the answer, otherwise it will click you.
The kidnapped person came without thinking, and said: Back to the two uncles, we are the servants of the Yan Mansion in Shengjing, and came to Xuancheng with the five sons of the Yan family more than a month ago. As a result, the people who entered the mountain came out alive, and then Yan Wugongzi returned to Shengjing, leaving Liu Quan and us in this courtyard. This yard is mainly used for hoarding goods and transshipment of goods, and there are only about 30 people here on weekdays, often a group of people stationed and then escorting the goods to take a group of people, and so on. Manager Liu Quan also lived in Guangxuan Building with a few cronies, and the trucks were full of built swords, and I really don't know where they were transported...
Mo Qingzhi continued to ask: "Then who is Liu Quan Yan Zhihao? What do you have to do with Beiyue Iron Workshop? What are you doing with so many swords?
The kidnapped person replied happily: Manager Liu Quan is the housekeeper of Yan Wugongzi's small life, and the Beiyue Iron Workshop is the Yan family's industry, but it has never been publicized to the public. As for what I want to do with such a sword, I really don't know, I'm just an ordinary domestic servant, and I'm not even a Yanfu warrior. There are many things that only Liu Quan knows, and the other people here are almost half-understood, Liu Quan is suspicious and ruthless, and never sends a person to do all the work, if he doesn't do his job well, he will be punished. What the little one said is true, the two uncles spare their lives, spare their lives...
Before the man's words fell, he was stunned by Mo Qingzhi, and then made a gesture of retreat. Xiang Junhao asked worriedly: "Uncle Shi, when this person wakes up, he will definitely tell the others about being kidnapped, won't we be exposed at that time?"
Mo Qingzhi looked at him and said: We are not sinister people, he is just a miscellaneous person, we can't kill this person with a knife, right? In addition, this is their secret base, which seems to be loose on the outside but tight on the inside. I used Lingqi to explore and found that it was a bit complicated, and I rushed in rashly for fear that the gains outweighed the losses, what you said, you have to use your brains to fight! In addition, I guarantee that this person does not dare to tell that Liu Quan, and he said that the person is suspicious and ruthless, and if he knows that this person's life will definitely not be guaranteed.
Xiang Junhao suddenly realized a little and said: Then let's wait for work, lead them to take the initiative to take the bait, and counterattack in the battlefield layout we have chosen?
Mo Qingzhi smiled with satisfaction and rewarded him with a popping chestnut, and said: Yes, I have grown. Now that we have the information we want, we're going to withdraw to the inn and plan to lure the snake out of the hole.
After that, he quietly left the courtyard with Xiang Junhao, who was rubbing his head. After a long time, the kidnapped man woke up from the firewood room and rubbed his neck that was a little numb, and suddenly remembered that he had just been tied up and questioned, and his hair stood upside down and he brushed down in a cold sweat. After he got up, he cautiously looked out of the firewood room, and found that no one in the yard paid attention to him, so he tidied up his clothes and walked out of the firewood room, pretending to be lazy and yawning as if he had just woken up, and chattering about his backache. When several guards saw it, they joked with him, saying that they were going to report it to Manager Liu, saying that he was lazy to sleep when he was on duty and punished him.
There is an inn in the east of Xuancheng
Helan Xuanji waited anxiously in the inn for the two masters and nephews, and they both didn't come back after dinner. But she couldn't go out to find it yet, because the little brother who was entrusted by Mo Qingzhi sent someone to deliver the news, but told her not to run around and that the follow-up news would be sent. Finally, Helan Xuanji waited for the two teachers and nephews who had been out for a long time, but as soon as these two entered the store, Xiao Er followed closely behind them with a table of luxurious meals in the dining room, and the two teachers and nephews gobbled up the two regardless of the others. After the wind and clouds, Mo Qingzhi asked Helan Xuanji while holding the tea: Xuanji, what did the messenger say?
Helan Xuanji glanced at him, do you want to ask? Although he was a little grumpy, he still took out the letter and handed it to Mo Qingzhi. Mo Qingzhi quickly read the letter, and this letter was a supplementary information after the first news. The contents of the first in it were similar to what they had discovered, which could be regarded as supporting the authenticity of what the servant said. But the follow-up content is very critical, Yan Zhihao's housekeeper Liu Quan went to the shogunate this morning, but Mu Lingyun did not appear but Uri saw him, and he was very secret when he talked, and he didn't hear all the news, only knew that there seemed to be some goods escorted to Xuzhou by the Mu family's Yueshan Dart Bureau, and Uri personally sent Liu Quan out of the shogunate. Then the Yueshan Dart Bureau of the Mu family went to the mysterious courtyard and took away four truckloads of goods, and went out of the official road in the direction of Xuzhou at the south gate of Xuancheng.
Xiang Junhao asked Xiang Mo Qingzhi: Uncle Shi, have you seen this Mu family and the Yan family's snake and rat nest in a mess?
Mo Qing leisurely ate the fruit after the meal, and said to Xiang Junhao: Now I see that the Yan family is indeed the one who has returned to the Valley of Ten Thousand Beasts, and the other things about building weapons and joining forces with the Mu family to transport goods have nothing to do with us. But why they returned to the Valley of Ten Thousand Beasts, it was unknown if they had any plans for us at the time. Don't you want to fight back with a leisurely arrangement? Then you have to lay some bait for the Yan family to take the bait and clean them up on the battlefield we have chosen and arranged.
Helan Xuanji interjected and asked, "What kind of bait? Isn't it possible to send your junior brother out as bait?"
At this time, the messenger of the porter came again, and brought not only a letter but also a thing. The letter sent this time wrote: Liu Quan's return to the Valley of Ten Thousand Beasts was brought by himself after Yan Zhihao left, saying that he was going to target someone. In addition, I just followed the Yueshan Dart Bureau to the south of the city, and found that Yan Zhihao's eldest brother, Yan Youkuan, the deputy general of Yan Zhiwen, who is currently the chief soldier of Xuzhou, took people there in disguise, and then went to Xuzhou together. On the way, the porters caused a car accident and overturned a truck, and took advantage of the chaos to take a knife from the scattered weapons.
Helan Xuanji came to Mo Qingzhi and said: "Uncle Shi, according to the law of Tiansheng, the people are not allowed to make weapons privately on a large scale. Judging from the boxes you've seen before, there are thousands of blades, right?
Mo Qingzhi shook his head and said: Just a knife of unknown origin can't explain any situation, and today it was Yan Zhiwen, the chief soldier of Xuzhou, who personally sent someone to fetch it, indicating that this matter may be related to the army in Xuzhou. Yan Song was in a high position during his reign, and his protégés and former officials were all over the moment, they were in power, and they could backhand for clouds and hands for rain, and if there was no full evidence, they were likely to be bitten back.
Mo Qingzhi continued: For the time being, the matter of weapons has nothing to do with us, we don't need to create additional incidents, we only control the matter of counterattacking the Yan family's encirclement and stalking us and killing the big wolf demon, so that the whole thing is like a dispute between the rivers and lakes and the rules of the rivers and lakes are resolved, it will not make too much trouble, and it will not move the bottom line of the Yan family, after all, they will do it first, and the Yan family will not do anything to us in the future
