Chapter 233: The Man in the Dark
It was getting dark, and most of the people in Tianle Town had returned to their homes.
Originally, there would still be a night market at night in Tianle Town, but since the poison incident, the people here have become cautious, so they closed down very early at night.
Yi Han agrees with this, after all, if you haven't cleaned up for a long time, you really don't know how far things have developed.
However, after entering the evening, the army here will also carry out some necessary patrols in the town, so as to avoid some bad things from happening.
In the first half of the night, except for some inns and liquor stores with lights on, the rest of the houses had already turned off the lights and went to sleep.
At this time, the army's patrol team also drove into Tianle Town, and after the team of ten people was divided, these troops also began to patrol Tianle Town.
Although nothing unusual has been found for a long time, these troops are still very attentive, carefully observing every suspicious place when patrolling.
Since these soldiers were originally trained by Murong Ji, and now they have undergone Yi Han's special training, their quality is also quite high.
In such a state of patrol, those who are sent to monitor this place have to be a little more careful.
Of course, they don't have to go out at night to investigate, after all, there really isn't anything useful to detect here.
For now, they're only here because they've been ordered to stay here and investigate, or they'd have left here long ago.
But now they also like to do reconnaissance here, after all, they have money from above, and they have nothing to do here every day, so they are busy walking around.
For this kind of life, these people who were sent here still feel comfortable.
Of course, in addition to these people, there are some people with other purposes who have come here, and the purpose of these people has been said before, they are paying attention to those precious medicinal herbs on the Forgotten Worry Mountain.
However, since the last time they experienced the last time they released their momentum in the middle of the night, these people have learned a lot smarter, and they don't dare to go to the mountain of forgetting worries easily.
But if you can't go up to Forget Worry Mountain, you don't wait for these people to give up on coveting this place, but instead turn to a roundabout strategy.
They still left some people here to observe the situation, and the remaining main forces hidden outside bypassed here and tried to enter the mountain from the periphery, hoping to avoid the investigation of the pious and get some precious medicinal materials from the mountain and then leave here.
Of course, these people are not just for medicinal herbs, strictly speaking, they are a group of poachers, a group of poachers who will poach anything of value.
These poachers are nominally poachers, but they do the same thing as robbers, but for now they dare not do it here.
While the soldiers were on patrol, a figure in a robe appeared on the roof of the family's house.
But for some reason, this figure was standing there, but the soldiers on patrol ignored him and walked over directly.
Standing on the roof of this family's house, he glanced at the situation in the Forgotten Worry Villa from a distance, and this figure sighed helplessly in his heart.
"Hey, this task is really troublesome! Although the matter of the Principality of Chu Feng has been solved, it is still necessary to determine the situation of that kid!"
"It's better to say that it's just the tigress, but I don't know if the old beggar has left here?"
After a helpless sigh in his heart, this figure also disappeared in place, and at this time, thanks to the moment when this figure appeared, the figure who secretly lurked out and was ready to go out to connect was also under his protection and evaded the patrolling soldiers, and then ran all the way out of Tianle Town.
In fact, the figure standing on the roof just now had already been discovered, but he was just not interested in such an ant.
In fact, it is not difficult to guess the identity of this figure, he is the purple-robed man who stopped Qian Qian from rescuing Tianxing when he was in the martial arts arena that day.
Originally, he wanted to leave after Xiao Yao appeared and warned him, but after considering the task on his body, he still went to the Principality of Chufeng.
After dealing with the situation in the Principality of Chufeng, and living in the Principality of Chufeng for two months, and having made enough observations of the situation there, the purple-robed man was also ready to return to his headquarters and report to the people who sent him.
However, before going back, he still returned to the Duchy of Western Qin, wanting to inquire about the situation of Tianxing, after all, the biggest target of his operation this time was Tianxing.
It didn't matter if he inquired, he knew that Tianxing had arrived at the Forgotten Worry Villa, and his body was still recovering well.
In the few days that Liyang was lurking in Lu Ying's house, after getting the news, the purple-robed man also rushed to the outskirts of the Valley of Forgotten Worries non-stop.
In fact, this man had arrived here half a month ago, but because he was afraid of Xiaoyao's strong strength and perception ability, he also kept wandering far away from the periphery, and then pushed in little by little.
He never noticed Xiaoyao's aura as he advanced slowly, and that night he also felt the momentum of the religiousness.
After feeling this, his heart was somewhat drumming, after all, he also felt a clear warning aura from that momentum.
But after careful consideration, he found that this warning did not seem to be aimed at himself, so he was relieved to push back a little inward.
And another reason for being cautious was that he also saw Geraint bring Yi Shui and the others here, and Geraint stopped here for a while.
He is still very clear about Geraint, he is a disciple of Ouye Lianyi, although he is not as strong as himself, but he does not dare to say that he does not have a life-saving hole card on his body.
Therefore, the purple-robed figure was cautiously considering, so he naturally stayed here for a while, after all, he knew that it was better for him to lie dormant for a while if this situation was going on, and he also took advantage of this time to investigate whether Xiao Yao was still here.
Until this morning, when Geraint left with Yi Pian, he had completely figured out that Xiaoyao was no longer here.
After figuring this out, the purple-robed figure entered here at night, ready to carefully observe the situation here in Tianle Town, and then make the next plan of action.
As for why the purple-robed figure is so persistent, this is also related to the fact that he received a direct order, after all, if the order from above is possible, he will directly kill Tianxing.
Of course, the purple-robed figure also knew that if he wanted to kill Tianxing, it was not that simple, after all, he was still there, if he fought to the death, he felt that he would not be able to bargain with him for a while, and it would be difficult to guarantee that there would be any accidents at that time.
So just now, the purple-robed figure consciously used his breath to protect the person hiding in the shadows, although he didn't know who they were, but the purple-robed figure knew that these people would definitely cause some trouble, so he would have a good time to start.
After paying attention, the purple-robed figure memorized the route of the man's movement, and then walked around the town to figure out the terrain first.
Putting aside the situation on the side of the purple-robed figure, the figure on the other side also wanted to move southeast all the way after running out of Tianle Town.
After running all the way for a distance of about ten miles, he also came to a village that was burned to ruins, and this is the same village that Tianxing passed through before, and it was also burned by Tianxing to prevent the spread of poison.
Although most of the houses have been burned down, some of the houses that have been far from the village have remained, so they are a place to rest.
As soon as the figure came to the village, he headed for a large wooden hut in the woods at the east end of the village, which was used to store hay.
Just as this figure had just reached the edge of the woods, two figures immediately jumped down from the tree, and then surrounded the figure one after the other.
When he saw the two figures surrounding him, this figure also hurriedly said hello.
"Don't panic, it's me! Xiao Luo! Don't worry! I'm not followed by anyone, I've been paying attention. ”
With this figure's words, the two figures who jumped down also relaxed their vigilance, and when they saw that the person who came was indeed their accomplice, these two people also urged him.
"Let's get in quickly! The boss is waiting for you inside!" After a simple sound, the two figures jumped to the trees on both sides again.
didn't care about the location of these two figures, this person called Xiao Luo also ran all the way into the woods, and then after seeing the person guarding the door, he also entered the big wooden house all the way, and there was a burly man waiting here at the moment, and next to this man was a man with a strong appearance, and a man with a feminine appearance, it seemed that he should be the second and third in command.
These three people are the three leaders of this group, the middle is their boss is called Jiao Ye, the man with five big and three thick is called Sun Zhuang, and the feminine man is called Shen Yu.
After arriving in the room, Xiao Luo immediately came to the front of the three men, and then also hugged his fist at them.
"I've seen three masters! I've already figured out the situation. ”
After hearing Xiao Luo's words, Jiao Ye's faces were immediately happy, and then Sun Zhuang, who was in a hurry, hurriedly asked.
"Where the hell is that? Have you figured this out?"
After hearing Sun Zhuang's inquiry, Xiao Luo glanced at him, and then replied with some hesitation.
"I didn't figure out the specific location, but today, when I listened to Yi Tianxing tell everyone, I told me not to approach Forget Worry Mountain easily when I got home. ”
In addition, if you go around the mountain to find medicinal herbs, you must be at the foot of the mountain, do not go to the mountain, and he also focused on telling not to approach the northeast of the mountain. ”
Later, there was a person who said that he had been there, and there were a lot of snakes there, and he also agreed with Yi Tianxing's statement, and it was not easy to approach there. ”
