Lin Fengsheng heard Fu Da'en's words, and said angrily: "Under the nest, how can there be eggs? Zhang Stammering and a group of thieves are ambitious, if they are not exterminated in time, they will one day capture Olu City, and then he will naturally be unable to escape the blame as a magistrate, and what good end can he have!"

Mo Zhenshi and the others also nodded yes, Li Baohua is mercenary, crazy, and stupid.

Fu Daen sneered: "General, you are thinking too simply. Master Li secretly colluded with Zhang Jieba and other thieves, otherwise this gang of thieves would not have been so rampant, and most of the food and salary robbed of the righteous army was given to him by Zhang Jieba. ”

Lin Fengsheng shook his head and said: "The robbery of food and salary was not instigated by thieves, it must have been his other plan." This person is so bold that it is not impossible for him to use it in a future rebellion. "I can't help but be shocked when I think of this.

Mei Ruoxue said with a sigh: "Cousin, I think we should immediately restrain Li Baohua, otherwise he will be very troublesome if he rebels." Then we won't be able to go back to Beijing again. ”

Lin Fengsheng said: "You don't have to worry about this, now that I am waiting here, even if he really has the intention of rebellion, he will definitely not dare to act rashly." The first priority was to find evidence of his looting of the army's rations and to bring him to justice as soon as possible before he was alert. ”

Fu Daen bowed and said: "I am willing to atone for my sins and come forward to testify against Master Li." ”

Lin Fengsheng nodded and said, "Very good, I still have a few things to ask you." ”

Fu Daen said: "The general inquired, and he will never dare to hide anything, and he must know everything." ”

Lin Fengsheng motioned for several people to sit down, and said to Fu Daen: "Where is that batch of food and salary now, has it fallen into the hands of Li Baohua?"

Fu Daen said: "The general can rest assured that this batch of food and salary has not fallen into the hands of Master Li, and where it is hidden can only be known by the next person." When he returned to the city of Olu, he took the general to retrieve it, and the goods were returned to their original owners. ”

Lin Fengsheng and the others were relieved to hear this, since the food and salary did not fall into Li Baohua's hands, then there would be less trouble in treating his crimes. Otherwise, it will be easy to get rid of corrupt officials, but it will be difficult to recover food and wages.

Lin Fengsheng asked again: "Since this matter was instructed by Li Baohua, why did you kill the guards and escape from prison, is this also acting?"

Fu Daen shook his head and said: "No, there were nine officials who participated in the robbery of food and salary that day, and there were only two people who knew the burial place of the food and salary except me. The two of us had a lifelong friendship with me, and all three of us admired the general very much, and secretly agreed not to inform Lord Li of the location of the grain and salary, and planned to find an opportunity to return the grain and salary to the general. When he asked me about the whereabouts of the salary, I excused myself, and he must have seen some clues, so he tortured me, and I killed the guards and escaped. ”

Everyone couldn't help but glance at Fu Da En Gao when they heard the reason, and Lin Fengsheng said: "It's hard for you, I don't know where your two brothers are now and whether they are safe?"

Fu Daen showed a worried look on his face, and said: "Both of them were arrested and put on death row by Li Baohua's gang, and I don't know whether they are dead or alive." However, the general can rest assured that both of them are iron-clad men and will not provide the whereabouts of the food. ”

Mei Ruoxue said: "They are heroes, let's save them." As long as you are not caught for a day, and the two of them don't say anything, then there will be no danger to their lives. ”

Guo Xian'er nodded and said, "Yes, what Sister Ruoxue said is very true, you don't have to worry." ”

Fu Daen was a little relieved in his heart, and said: "I hope so, what I'm worried about is that Li Baohua will shoot a large number of people and go to the Qingfeng Ridge area to search." Although the place where the food was buried was hidden, it was difficult to guarantee that they would not find it. ”

Lin Fengsheng was also faintly worried, the amount of food and salary was huge, and it was really difficult to move far away with the strength of Fu Daen and the other three people, so it must be hidden near the place where the crime occurred. If Li Baohua really sent a large number of soldiers to search, he would inevitably be found. said: "For now, we can only rush back as soon as possible and immediately send someone to retrieve the food." ”

Everyone also had this thought in their hearts, Guo Xian'er said: "Senior brother, I'll go and prepare the horse first." Mei Ruoxue also said: "I'll go and ask Brother Miao to select a group of good players, and rush back with us." ”

Lin Fengsheng nodded and said, "Let's go, let's set off later." "Seeing that the two of them are so understanding, I am very happy. The two of them hurried forward.

Mo Zheng said: "Listen to it, in the clouds, the old cow's nose, let's go." As he spoke, he also joined hands with the head of the Xiting Pavilion to drive a large group of people.

Lin Fengsheng asked again: "Where did you hide the food, and why did you trick me into going under the cliff at that time?"

Fu Daen said apologetically: "The food and salary are hidden near the cliff, and it is inconvenient for outsiders to be present at that time, the reason why I deceived the general to go to you is to hope that the general will find out." ”

Lin Fengsheng said: "I also led people to look for it nearby, but unfortunately I didn't find any traces. Let's go, I'll rush back with me, and we'll get the food out in time." "I caught up with the big team at the moment.

Mei Ruoxue and Guo Xian'er had already prepared their horses, and the accompanying people had also been selected, so Lin Fengsheng instructed Miaole and Wu Weizi to lead a large group of men and horses to escort the food and salary, and then rush to arrive, and they must be vigilant on the way and do not allow mistakes.

Immediately brought Duan Zhengyu, Mei Ruoxue, Guo Xian'er, Mo Zhenshi and Xiting Daochang to accompany him, as well as Fu Daen and more than 100 good players, and the group rushed back to Olu City on horseback.

The group traveled day and night, non-stop, and arrived at the city of Olu at noon on the third day. The people ate some food in the city, and then went out of the city to the north and rushed to Qingfeng Ridge.

There was nothing to say all the way, and in the evening, when they arrived outside Qingfeng Ridge, Lin Fengsheng said: "Fu Daen, you will take us to take out the food and salary, and guard it for the time being." ”

Fu Daen responded: "Yes, general." "Immediately pat the horse and lead the way.

The group plugged into the path, and Fu Daen suddenly said: "General, wait a minute, you see that there is a fire in the woods!"

Everyone stopped their horses and looked, and sure enough, there were faint figures and fires in the woods, and more than a dozen people who looked like officials jumped out on both sides of the path, and said: "Officials handle cases, idlers don't approach!"

Lin Fengsheng looked at the outfits of several people, and knew that they were the officials under Li Baohua, it seemed that they were searching for food, and said angrily: "Come on, take these people down for me!"

More than 20 skilled heroes of the rivers and lakes swarmed up, and captured all the officials in an instant, and Mei Ruoxue and Guo Xian'er shot together to point their acupoints. A government official recognized Lin Fengsheng and the others, and couldn't help but change his face greatly, and he opened his mouth to breathe, Lin Fengsheng pointed out in the air, and his strength closed the dumb hole of the government official.

Fu Daen said: "General, Li Baohua really sent people to search here, I hope they haven't found anything." ”

Lin Fengsheng said: "Don't worry, even if they have found it now, it will be the food of the righteous army after all." At best, they can be regarded as meritorious in handling cases. Then he said, "Hide your horses in the woods, and walk with me to see them, and try not to show their sights." ”
