The old Zhangtou suddenly lost interest in exploring what this idiom is. He pulled back Agou who was in a daze and almost fell off the cart, and then carefully took out the wine bag again, brought it to his mouth and drank it lightly. A sip of spirits.
"Yijiazi, so fast..."
"The villain must have gone to Dafeng to kill Yama..."
"I don't know if he has ever practiced the Moon Raising Sword..."
"If you don't learn, it's actually a good thing..."
"..."
The scorching sun hangs high in the desert, reflecting the millennium.
A sentence of murmurs slowly became tuned, and the hoarse voice of Lao Zhang's head, like a broken gong, floated between the boundless Gobi and the sky, lonely and long.
"There are not many ways of Taoism, and the Nanchen runs through the Beihe River."
"Just one word, all the demons in the world..."
......
......
The next day.
Fengyuan, Princess Mansion.
"what?!"
Wei Changtian, who was flipping through the "Yan Luo Case" file, stared at Li Wutong who suddenly appeared, his eyes widened suddenly.
"The person is missing?!"
"Yes."
Li Wutong took a deep breath, nodded solemnly: "General Meng just sent a letter back, saying that Bai Youheng was indeed not found."
"No, do you think the military management is so loose?"
Wei Changtian blurted out and asked, "Shouldn't we be able to notice the disappearance of a big living person right away?"
"this......"
Knowing that he was wrong, Li Wutong was embarrassed to argue, but explained in a low voice: "The army retreated to Yuanzhou City in the past few days, and they need to march continuously."
"Bai Youheng should have found an opportunity to escape during the march. At that time, the crowd was so chaotic that he couldn't find it immediately. It was only when General Meng went to find someone that he realized that he was no longer in the army."
"..."
Looking at Li Wutong with a guilty face, Wei Changtian didn't say anything after all, but waved his hands helplessly.
If the person is missing, Meng Shi will definitely send someone to look for it, but the probability of finding it is estimated to be very small.
Wei Changtian didn't know why Bai Youheng escaped at this juncture, but presumably it wasn't because of the leak of news.
Unless one of Li Wutong and Meng Shi belongs to Bai Youheng.
It's just that now it's obvious that there is no way, and there is no time to verify these.
The most important thing right now is how to deal with "Yan Luo".
"Forget it, since the person has already escaped, let's do this first."
After sitting back on the desk full of files, Wei Changtian sighed and decided to temporarily put Bai Youheng's affairs aside.
But Li Wutong is still very worried.
"Young master Wei, didn't you say that this Bai Youheng has something to do with Yan Luo's matter? Does it really have nothing to do with him disappearing now?"
"The person has disappeared, so what if it doesn't matter?"
Wei Changtian shook his head: "Unless you can find him back."
"Okay! I'll send an order to General Meng to get him back at all costs!"
It was about the fate of the country, Li Wutong was of course in a hurry, and after answering one sentence, he ran away in a hurry.
Hehe, if you can find it, I will lose.
Looking at her back, Wei Changtian secretly complained.
He was just about to continue reading the file, but at this moment Chu Xianping came in from outside the house again.
"My lord, the spies from Yuanzhou just sent a letter saying that someone had seen Senior Zhang outside the city of Yuanzhou."
"Huh? Yuanzhou City?"
Wei Changtian was stunned for a moment, not knowing what old Zhang was doing there.
Let's talk about fleeing, but who would flee to the "enemy-controlled area"?
Is it really going to kill Yan Luo?That's why he came to Dafeng through Yuanzhou city?
Seemingly seeing Wei Changtian's thoughts, Chu Xianping took a step closer and said:
"Young Master, I think it is very likely that Senior Zhang is coming to Fengyuan."
"Is it?"
Wei Changtian pondered for a moment, then ordered:
"If that's the case, then first ask Li Wutong to borrow some guards and go along the road to meet him."
"It is estimated that they have just entered the Western Desert Gobi at this moment. If something goes wrong, I will collect the old man's body."
"Understood, son."
Chu Xianping nodded, and was just about to leave to arrange this matter.
But Wei Changtian stopped him suddenly.
"Wait, don't let too many people know about this matter, you go quietly to a serious bodyguard agency and ask them to send bodyguards to pick it up."
"Yes."
Chu Xianping understood Wei Changtian's consideration for acting like this, so he didn't ask any further questions, and quickly left the room.
Once again he was alone in the room, Wei Changtian frowned and looked at the portrait of "Yan Luo" on the file in front of him, and shook his head slightly after a long while.
"This thing doesn't look like Yama..."
"It's similar to the painting style of the "lucky beasts" such as Skylark, Huanglong, and Yingyu..."
Chapter 302 Encountering "Old Knowing" in a Foreign Country
An hour later.
Although he first came to Fengyuan and was unfamiliar with the place, Chu Xianping quickly found a small bodyguard agency with a small scale but a good reputation.
Looking up at the quaint signboard of "Shimen Bodyguard Bureau", Chu Xianping stepped into the main room, and soon an old shopkeeper came up to him.
"Young master, I don't know if you have goods to send elsewhere?"
"..."
Without answering in a hurry, Chu Xianping first turned around and closed the door, then took out a heavy bag of silver from his bosom and threw it directly into the latter's hand.
"Shopkeeper, I have a big deal here..."
"..."
Outside, the bustling noise was still there.
Inside the house, this uncomplicated transaction was quickly negotiated.
For 200 taels of silver, the Shimen bodyguard bureau will send fifteen bodyguards to go to the Gobi West Desert tonight to pick up Lao Zhangtou and Agou who came to Fengyuan secretly.
In the ancient times when there were no communication tools, this way of receiving people sounded ridiculous.
But in fact, if Lao Zhangtou really wants to come to Fengyuan, those two groups of people are basically sure to meet.
After all, there is only one commercial route across the Gobi, and as long as you follow this road, you will be able to find the old Zhangtou and his father with a high probability.
Of course, in such a remote place, there will inevitably be some villains like horse bandits.
And this is why Wei Changtian sent someone to pick him up.
"My lord, I will call the chief escort of this trip to come out to see you."
After putting away the old Zhangtou's portrait, the old shopkeeper shouted to the backyard with a beaming smile, "Boss Wang, come out and meet the customer!"
The chief dart is the "first person in charge" of a single dart order.
Before leaving the escort, the chief escort of this trip has to meet with the customer, and if the latter is not satisfied, he can change someone.
This is the rule of darts.
"Hoohoo!"
The curtain connecting the main room and the backyard was quickly pulled open, and a muscular man leaned out and walked out.
"Hehe, son, this is..."
The old shopkeeper smiled and wanted to introduce to Chu Xianping the ace escort of their escort agency, but who knew that the two of them were stunned at the same time as soon as they met each other.
"Chu, Mr. Chu?"
"Boss Wang?"
......
As the saying goes, there are four happy events in life.
After a long drought, there is a sweet rain, when I meet an old friend in a foreign country, when the bridal chamber is full of candles, when the golden list is inscribed.
For Wei Changtian, a young man who has no worries about eating and drinking, he probably will never have the chance to experience the first and fourth joys in his entire life.
And the third joy, he has already experienced it.
As for the only remaining second favorite, "Meeting an Old Friend in a Foreign Land"...it can only be said that the current scene barely counts.
"Boss Wang, why are you in Fengyuan?"
In a small restaurant not far from Shimen Bodyguard Bureau, Wei Changtian and Chu Xianping looked at the man sitting across from them with curious expressions.
This person is Li Suyue's "dead husband", Wang Gan.
"Well, this matter is actually quite simple."
Wang Gan pulled a wry smile from the corner of his mouth: "Young Master Wei, Young Master Chu, I don't know where to go after I leave Shuzhou, I just want to go to a place farther away to make a living."
"Later, I happened to meet the escort team of the Shimen Security Bureau on the road. They saw that I was good at martial arts, so they invited me to come to Fengyuan for a meal."
"At the time, I thought that it would be the same wherever I was alone, so I simply came here."
"At least this way..."
Wang Gan didn't finish his last sentence, but both Wei Changtian and Chu Xianping knew what he wanted to say.
Do you want to stay away from the sad place...
As the "pushing hand" behind Wang Qian's current situation, Wei Changtian's mood at this time is actually quite complicated.
But in that situation, he really had no choice.
It can only be said to be a trick of good fortune.
"Oh, Captain Wang, I'm sorry."
After pouring the latter a glass of wine, Wei Changtian's apology was sincere.
But of course Wang Gan didn't dare to accept this sentence of apology, and hurriedly put his hands on the cup and shook his head repeatedly: "Mr. Wei is willing to spare my life, and Wang is already grateful. Mr. Wang's words really make the villain extremely ashamed."
"Besides, the villain's life in Fengyuan is pretty good now, and the past... I have almost forgotten it."
Picking up the wine glass, Wang Gan lowered his head: "To tell you the truth, the two sons, the villain was thinking of marrying after saving some money a few days ago."
"..."
Marry again.
It's hard to say whether Wang Gan's words are sincere, or just to reassure Wei Changtian and Chu Xianping.
Of course Wei Changtian hoped it was the former, but the real situation should be the latter.
Shaking his head without saying anything, Wei Changtian and Chu Xianping also toasted, and the three glasses collided with each other, making a crisp "ding" sound.
