Chapter 52: The Grassland (I)
The third brother heard the laughter of the people here, and asked the people around him with some confusion: "What are they laughing at?" A killer replied: "I don't know, third brother." Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info" The third brother looked at the killer who went to serve the soup, and asked loudly: "Could it be that your kid did something embarrassing to make people laugh, right?" The killer hurriedly replied: "No, third brother, I just listened to you, and asked them for this pot of soup." The third brother looked incredulous, and kicked him down: "His daughter's horse, it must be your kid who is talking nonsense and making people laugh! Get out of the way!" The killer hurriedly got up, and did not dare to resist, so he hurriedly bent over to the side and sat down, bowing his head and not daring to say a word.
Here, Dugu Jian stopped everyone's laughter and said, "Okay, don't laugh, everyone." Don't arouse their suspicions. Zhang Linxin replied with a smile on his face: "Brother Dugu, who will be fine, you haven't seen it, they have all drunk the soup, so many rhubarb, they will suffer it tonight." ”
Dugu Jian said: "It's better to be careful in everything, Miss Li, let everyone strengthen their vigilance tonight, just in case." Li Yao also agreed very much, nodded and agreed, and then went to arrange for his subordinates to be on duty at night.
That night, the stomach of those killers was like a river and a sea, the feeling was indescribable, and one by one they found a hidden place to start solving the problem. But rhubarb is a good medicine for clearing heat and detoxifying, not that you can solve it once you go out of your favors, often just stand up with your pants up, and that feeling will follow one after another.
In this way, these killers have been fighting with their stomachs for most of the night, where is the time to take care of the caravan on Li Yao's side? Originally, the third brother wanted to take advantage of the night to quietly touch the closer place to take a look, but now he didn't need it, he himself was still squatting in the depths of the grass and exerting his strength! That smell, even Dugu Jian and the others in the distance could smell it.
In the second half of the night, they finally felt less pain in their stomachs, but they all collapsed and had no strength, lying on the grass that was still clean on the side, smelling the strong stench, but they didn't move, and just wanted to fall asleep. On this night, Dugu Jian and the others had a good night's sleep and recuperated their spirits.
Early in the morning of the second day, the sun slowly crawled out from the end of the ground, and Dugu Jian and the others also got up early. The group packed up and prepared to go. Dugu Jian came to the place where the killers were lying, led a few horses away, and said with a smile: "Several, thank you for escorting this way, I won't bother you on the road after this, we can just go by ourselves." Oh, and thank you for your horses. ”
Those killers wanted to kill him, but unfortunately they would have collapsed from exhaustion, and they didn't even have the strength to speak, so where could they stand up?
There was no tail behind him, and everyone's hearts were much lighter all of a sudden. The group walked out for another thirty or forty miles, Zhang Linxin rode on a horse, and looked at Dugu Jian with a smile, "Brother Dugu, I didn't expect your trick to be really effective, this time, they can't catch up even if they want to." Li Yao also asked with some curiosity: "Brother Dugu, how can you be sure that they will definitely eat what we give?"
Dugu Jian looked at the two of them and replied: "This is to thank Ge Yifan Ge Da Protector, after Master Tongwu and Master Yuhui cover us down the mountain, he will definitely have some doubts, but he can't be sure, he is worried in his heart that this is our plan to divert the tiger from the mountain, so he will definitely send someone to follow us and see our whereabouts." But if he wants to continue to search the mountains, he will definitely not be able to take care of these people who have been sent out. The grassland is so big, hundreds of miles are deserted, these people have been with us all day, not a drop of water, must have been hungry and thirsty for a long time. When they see the food we send, they will be suspicious at first, but when they see that we eat exactly the same food as theirs, it all comes out of a pot, then how can they bear it?"
Zhang Linxin and Li Yao nodded thoughtfully, Zhang Linxin smiled: "This time we finally have peace of mind, when the people sent by Ge Yifan find those few people who have collapsed, I am afraid that we will already be a hundred miles away, this vast grassland, and the direction is not easy to discern, and he will have no way to find us!"
Dugu Jian looked at the sky, looked back again, and said to Li Yao: "Miss Li, let everyone turn around and go northeast, pay attention to eliminate the traces left by the cart, and don't leave clues for the pursuers." Li Yao nodded in agreement, then turned the horse's head and went to arrange it to everyone.
Looking back at the killers who had diarrhea and collapsed, originally according to Ge Yifan's request, they were going to send a person to return to Datong every three hours to report to Ge Yifan about the movements of Li Yao and others, of course, every time they went back, Datong would also shoot one to replace him, and naturally there was no need at night. Therefore, early in the morning of the second day, they should have sent people back, but several of them have already become like this, and they have lost their horses, where can they return to Datong?
Until noon, Datong did not see anyone returning, and told Ge Yifan about the matter, he realized that something was wrong, and faintly felt that things were very strange, he called Lin Wenquan and decided to personally take someone to check, leaving Lin Wenquan to continue to search here.
Ge Yifan took more than a dozen killers, rode fast horses, and quickly chased north. One of the killers who led the way before was the last to come back yesterday to report the news, he followed Ge Yifan and pointed the way, and the group galloped on horseback. After more than an hour, he came to the place where Li Yao's caravan camped last night.
Looking at the extinguished fire left on the ground and the traces left by the tent, Ge Yifan became more and more sure in his heart that something must have happened to his subordinates. He reined in the horse's head and ordered: "Look around, if Qi Laosan and them are killed, the body must be near here." ”
"Yes, Dharma Protector!" a group of killers scattered around, looking for the corpses of Qi Laosan and the others.
After a while, a killer smelled a foul smell, followed the foul smell to the edge of a small dirt slope, and saw Qi Laosan and five other people lying in the grass, motionless. He hurriedly turned around and shouted, "Found it, Protector, they are here!" Ge Yifan jumped forward, and a few ups and downs came to him.
He covered his nose and asked, "What's the situation, why is it so stinky?" The killer shook his head and said, "Protector, my subordinates don't know either, and my subordinates also found this place because of this stench." Ge Yifan looked at the few people lying on the ground, reached out and touched Qi Laosan's snort, and found that there was still breath, and there were some doubts in his heart: "He didn't even die?" and went to look at several other people, and found that there were no wounds on the five people, and there were no traces left by the fight, and he was even more puzzled in his heart: "What's going on?"
