Chapter 209: Returning Home Tired
After Wang Dasheng collected his troops, he did not return to Bianliang immediately, but returned to Bianyangcong's mansion with Xiao Wuzhong and others......
Knowing what happened today, Xiao Wuzhong was afraid that the secret of his defection to the Mengyuan court would be leaked, so he asked Wang Dasheng with trepidation: "General Wang, you said that the girl secretly peeped at us today, will it ...... The secret of the bronze cannon has been known to people outside?"
Wang Dasheng paused for a moment, and then said coldly: "She will peep at us today, and she only discovered this secret by accident, right? Now that General Ben has killed her, this secret will naturally not be leaked again......
"If that's the case, it's great, thanks to General Wang coming to inspect today......" Xiao Wuzhong didn't know the relationship between Su Jia and Xiaojia Villa, and naturally he didn't expect Xiao Family Villa to send someone to follow this level. And even if it is, when the time comes to ask the whereabouts of the people, Xiao Wuzhong can still lie that Wang Dasheng of Bianliang City did it.
Wang Dasheng thought for a while, and then said to Xiao Wuzhong: "If there is nothing to do, you can go down first...... You just need to remember that on the day of worship, arrange for Bian Yang to transport the copper cannons from the adults to Bianliang, and you will have to go back to your mountain villa to participate in the worship day. β
"Yes, the villain must live up to the general's trust!" Xiao Wuzhong replied, and then slowly retreated.
Wang Dasheng glanced at Bian Yangcong, who had been standing beside him, and then asked: "Lord Bian, today this general was originally here to review the bronze cannon, but he didn't expect to encounter the tracking of the old enemy, and he was physically and mentally exhausted. I wonder if Lord Bian can arrange a proper place to stay, and General Rongben and his subordinates can rest for the night tonight?"
Bian Yang heard that Wang Dasheng was going to spend the night here tonight. So a flattering smile immediately appeared on his face and said: "General Wang spoke, what is the difficulty in arranging accommodation? No problem, you and your soldiers must have a good night's rest tonight, General Wangββ"
Thereupon. After Bian Yang answered, he immediately went out of the room to arrange the matter......
The rest of Wang Dasheng was alone, still staying in the hall and thinking deeply, his expression was cold and solemn, and he seemed to have some doubts.
At this time, a soldier leader outside the door reported coming in, and Wang Dasheng heard it. Turn back now.
The soldier leader ran in front of Wang Dasheng, and Wang Dasheng immediately asked, "How is it, I asked you and your subordinates to investigate the matter." Have you all found out?"
The team leader immediately replied, "It's only partial...... Today in the stable, where Zuihou blew up the thief with a copper cannon, a total of thirteen incomplete charred corpses were found. But as for whether it's a man or a woman, it's still impossible to tell the ......."
"Thirteen corpses?" Wang Dasheng asked again. "Could it be that when General Ben sent his men to search for that thief in the roof groove? Isn't there a single one who counts how many of his men the general sent at that time?"
"Back to the general, noβ" the leader continued, "that girl's martial arts were so terrible at that time that our whole team was focused on how to deal with that girl, and we didn't even bother to count how many of your subordinates you sent at that time. Moreover, at that time, the war horses and chariots at the stable were very chaotic, and they were uneven side by side, even if you counted them carefully. It may not be possible to immediately count how many people you sent at that time, general. It's the incompetence of his subordinates, and I ask the general to forgive meβ"
"It's not your fault either. It's General Ben who is too negligent......" Wang Dasheng continued, "At that time, I cornered that thief, and all I was thinking about was how to kill her, and I didn't pay attention to how many subordinates were sent at that time......"
The soldier leader thought for a while, and then continued: "But we can see clearly later, before attacking with copper cannons, the general asked us to pull away the war horses and chariots next to the roof trough, and only a bare roof trough was left in the middle. We didn't see anyone come out, and the power of the bronze cannon was so great that two shells went down at the same time, even if the thief could use the Escape Technique, it would be too late. So the subordinate thought to himself, that girl should still be killed by the copper cannon, after all, there is no chance of surviving in that situation......"
"But I can't let go of my heart, that girl is not simple, since she dares to break into the Prime Minister's Mansion alone, she can escape from my hands, martial arts and courage are not simple, in that case, I will never want to choose this kind of nest death......" Wang Dasheng said coldly, "I have a hunch, that girl is still alive......"
"But at the scene of the shell explosion, we didn't find the girl's figure, didn't we?" Even if we used light skills, we should be able to find out......" The leader followed and said, "It's impossible to survive in that situation, it's the general, you think too much, right?"
"Maybe......" Wang Dasheng first sighed rarely, and then resumed his indifferent tone, "But we still can't relax, we must continue to strengthen the vigilance of the place where the copper cannons are stored tonight, even if that girl is really dead, it can't be ruled out that there are other people who will cause trouble from it, so don't take it lightly, understand?"
"Yes, General, my subordinates will arrange manpower and continue to strengthen the guard!" After receiving the order, the leader immediately retreated from the hall.
Wang Dasheng was left alone in the hall, and Wang Dasheng silently looked at the murals on the wall of the hall, and his heart seemed to be unable to calm down.
"With her guts, did she really die like this?" Or did she ......" Wang Dasheng has always been entangled in his heart whether Su Jia is really dead......
Night is gradually falling, and until now, there are not many pedestrians on the streets due to the riots that are taking place in the streets today. The ruins destroyed by the copper cannon are still there, and from time to time there are brief cries of bereavement. Many ordinary people even watched from the ruins of the copper cannon, and because there were still many Mengyuan soldiers patrolling nearby, the common people did not dare to stay here for too long - everything that happened today was really unpeaceful......
Only the horse shed was not inspected by Mengyuan soldiers, after all, thirteen charred corpses were found here, even if they were taken away, probably due to taboos, no soldier was willing to stay in this place to patrol......
In a confined space, there was a faint sound of breathing. However, compared to the previous instability, the voice at this time was much calmer. It's Su Jia, and she's still alive. At this time, she curled up in a confined space, slowly relying on the remaining internal force, and used the cold spirit magic to help herself heal and recover - it seems that she was forced to the dead end of the horse shed by Wang Dasheng today, and Su Jia still managed to escape.
I felt that I was almost recovered, and I found that it was dark all around, and I realized that it was already dark. Su Jia tried to slowly stretch her legs and feet, and then prepared to come out of the confined space.
Open the canopy of the confined space. The place where Su Jia was just now turned out to be the lower part of the cage seat driven by the person in the carriage.
It turned out that when Wang Dasheng sent troops to surround the stable where he was today, Su Jia had already thought of a strategy. She made a small opening in the back of the tent's roof trough. and killed the men sent by Wang Dasheng first. She knew that Wang Dasheng was exhausted at that time, and it was impossible for her to risk her life and come to the house alone to fight herself. The only quick way to solve yourself is to blow up this roof with a copper cannon. And around the horse shed is the war horse chariot used by the Bianliang army. Wang Dasheng will not let go of his plan easily. These messy carriages will definitely be pulled to a safe place first, and if they use their light skills to escape, Wang Dasheng will also be able to find out at the first time. So Su Jia took the first step, and while the carriage was still very messy, she took advantage of the chaos to get into the airtight empty box at the bottom of the carriage cage. After Wang Dasheng's soldiers pulled these carriages to the safe area, they followed them to the safe area, so the bronze cannons ordered by Wang Dasheng were naturally "empty cannons". It was just that the empty house was blown up, leaving only the corpses of thirteen Mengyuan soldiers that Wang Dasheng had killed by himself and did not pay attention to.
Although this way of hiding is a bit "nesty". But there was no other way to plan at that time, and Su Jia couldn't think about it anymore. Jihua's success can be regarded as another time that Su Jia was in danger and escaped from death.
After Su Jia opened the canopy at the lower part of the cage seat, the whole person crawled out of it. Although she was physically and mentally exhausted at this time, she still had the strength to return to Xiaojia Villa.
Su Jia jumped down from the cage seat and first held the handle of the ghost knife with his right hand, for fear that there would be Mengyuan soldiers patrolling around him or even Wang Dasheng himself. Su Jia squatted down slightly, and then looked around in the hazy night.
Su Jia was very lucky, there were no Mengyuan soldiers patrolling around, it seems that Wang Dasheng thought that after killing himself, he took his soldiers to "return home".
Su Jia breathed a sigh of relief for the time being, but she didn't dare to stay longer. She slowly stood up, and after adjusting her body, Su Jia immediately performed light skills again and ran in the direction of the outside of the city.
Because Wang Dasheng thought that he had killed Su Jia, and the soldiers and horses under his command who had strengthened their guards were concentrated in the place where the copper cannons were stored, the security on the entire Lingguan City tower was not strengthened much, and Su Jia still easily went out of the city to avoid people's eyes.
But for Su Jia, it can be regarded as a sigh of relief, leaving Wang Dasheng's sight, Su Jia can finally let go of her previous worries. Today in the battle with Wang Dasheng in Lingguan City, life and death went back and forth several times, I am afraid that Su Jia will never forget it in his life......
But Su Jia can't be idle now, she must hurry back to Xiaojia Villa, and tell Xiao Juxian, Xiao Senior, Xiao Tian, and Xiao Bo the news she knows today. And I went out to follow Xiao Wuzhong for a day today, and I didn't say hello to anyone, the people in the villa, especially Xiao Tian, must be worried about themselves now. Thinking that he acted alone without saying anything to Xiao Tian today, it was the same as breaking into the Prime Minister's Mansion that night in Bianliang, Su Jia had countless guilt in his heart.
However, Su Jia doesn't have to think much about it now, she must speed up her pace when her internal strength is about to run out, and it is important to return to Xiaojia Villa first......
At this time, the Xiaojia Villa ......
It was already night, and Xiao Tian still didn't find Su Jia's figure. He has always cared about Su Jia, but he is also anxious at this time, Xiao Tian thought to himself, if he can't see Su Jia for a day, then Su Jia must have an accident.
Xiao Tian was alone in the room, packed his bags, carried the plum blossom sword, and prepared to leave the house.
"Ah Tian, where are you going?" Zhang Xiu asked worriedly when he saw that his son was about to pack up and go out without saying a word.
Xiao Tian paused, and then said to his mother: "Mother, the child is going to find Jia'er-"
Zhang Xiu heard it, Xiao Tian was still worried about Su Jia, although he didn't quite approve of Su Jia in his heart, but seeing his son so worried, he could only sigh and say: "Hey, it's night, Miss Su is still missing, where can she run to at this time?"
"It's not back yet, Jia'er must have had an accident, so the child is going to find her now-" Xiao Tian continued to say firmly.
Seeing Xiao Tian's resolute look, Zhang Xiu continued: "Silly boy, you didn't find Miss Su in the daytime today, and now you go outside to look for it at night, how can you find it?"
Xiao Tian thought for a while and continued: "I heard Xue Cui say today that Jia'er has been following Senior Brother Xiao Wuzhong in the morning. But today, I saw Senior Brother Wuzhong leave Xiaojia Villa, but I never found Jia'er. If that's the case, Jia'er must still be quietly following Senior Brother Wuzhong. Senior Brother Xiao Wuzhong has always lived in Lingguan City, as long as the child goes to Lingguan City, he will definitely be able to find Jia'er!"
"But Ah Tian, you have never been to Lingguan City...... "Zhang Xiu continued, "What's more, no one in the villa has ever gone to Lingguan City to see Xiao Wuzhong, how could you find Ah Tian?"
Xiao Tian didn't care, all he was thinking about now was worrying about Su Jia's safety, so he said without hesitation: "No, Jia'er is alone in Lingguan City, and she hasn't come back so late, something must have happened, I must go to Lingguan City to see Jia'er!" After answering, Xiao Tian was afraid that his mother would say a few more words about Su Jia, so he immediately ran out of the room......
The night gradually deepened, and there were not many other disciples in the courtyard of the villa, Xiao Tian stepped from one staircase to another with one arrow step, and with all the worries about Su Jia in his heart, Xiao Tian quickly ran to the gate of the Xiao family villa.
However, as soon as he arrived at the gate, a familiar blue figure on the stairs made Xiao Tian's heart fall halfway - Su Jia was back. Under the hazy moonlight, Su Jia dragged her tired body and slowly walked along the stairs - Su Jia had exhausted her internal strength, and she didn't even have the strength to go up the stairs with light skills.
Through the moonlight, Xiao Tian saw a hint of haggard on Su Jia's face. Xiao Tian, who was full of worry, saw it, and immediately stepped forward in a few steps, and arrived in front of Su Jia, so he asked urgently: "Jia'er, ...... you Where the hell have you been today?"
Su Jia was still panting slowly - this was the second time Xiao Tian had seen Su Jia so tired and weak since Su Jia was injured by Lu Huan's "Soul Snatching Palm". Xiao Tian knew very well in his heart that Su Jia must have encountered something unusual today.
Su Jia stopped, slowed down for a long time, and then responded: "I'll talk about this later...... Ah Tian, take me to see your master Xiao Juxian and senior Xiao, something terrible has happened, I have to hurry up...... I have to hurry up and tell Senior Xiao...... "Su Jia is so tired that she can't speak."
Seeing Su Jia tired like this, Xiao Tian was embarrassed to ask anything more. Without saying a word, Xiao Tian was worried that Su Jia was too tired physically and mentally, so he immediately stepped forward to help Su Jia. Thinking that she had just escaped from the entrance of life and death in Lingguan City, and now that she had returned to the villa, Su Jia was relieved to see Xiao Tian caring about her so much......
"Aunt Xiu, I saw Ah Tian and he came back, it seems that he helped that Miss Su back......" Xiao Tian's house, Xiao Qi, who knew some of the situation, said.
"Didn't you say you went to Lingguan City, why did you come back so soon?" asked Zhang Xiu.
Xiao Qi continued: "It seems that Miss Su came back by herself, Miss Su seems to be tired, and Ah Tian also went over to support Miss Su. β
"It's good to come back if it's okay......" Zhang Xiu was relieved a lot after knowing that his son was safe, and at this time, he didn't care whether he was prejudiced against Su Jia or not, and then asked, "By the way, where are Ah Tian and that Su girl now?"
Xiao Qi replied, "The two of them...... It seems that she went to Master's place, as if Miss Su has something to tell Master. Ah Bo and several other senior brothers also went, it seems that Miss Su is following Senior Brother Wuzhong today, as if she found something in Lingguan City, and she looks a little anxious......"
"Hey, these children, it's really worrying......" As a mother, Zhang Xiu sighed softly, as if she had a lot of thoughts in her heart...... (To be continued......)
