Yuan Tianzun Chapter 51

Chapter 51 Suspected soldier

A Zhuangzi about 20 miles away from the city. As the intelligence location of the Jin Empire in Licheng, this Zhuangzi has always been very inconspicuous.

A main room in the village, the decoration is quite simple.

"My lord! My lord! There's news." The middle-aged man in black robe pushed the door open and rushed into the main room with a face full of excitement.

"Guo Liu, didn't I tell you? When you come into my room, knock on the door first." The evil young man who was standing in the room practicing his sword withdrew his sword with a 'shua' sound.

Turning around, he looked at the middle-aged man in black indifferently.

Seeing this, a trace of fear flashed in the eyes of the black-robed middle-aged man, and he even lowered his head: "My lord, I won't dare to be humble next time."

The black-robed middle-aged man was also quite aggrieved.

This main room was originally my own residence, and I have developed a habit of directly pushing the door.

"I hope there will be no next time." The evil young man's voice was cold: "Tell me, what's the news this time?"

"It's about Wu Yuan." The black-robed middle-aged man breathed a sigh of relief, and continued: "The informant placed by the humble job just learned the information from Wu's internal affairs. They just rented a big ship, and the ship has not been transported. cargo, but passenger ships."

"Passenger ship?" The evil young man's eyes were fixed: "Where are you going?"

"Nanmeng!" said the middle-aged man in black robe, "I sent someone to find out from the owner of the boat that this boat will sail down the river in these two days, from the Nanlong River to the 'Nanyun Canal'. From Wanqiu Daze to Nanmengfu City."

"Wu Yuan?" Xie Yiqing asked young.

"Probably yes." The black-robed middle-aged man nodded: "Before, although the Wu family occasionally sent people to Nanmengfu City, they never chartered a big boat. This cost is not small."

The evil youth nodded: "When will we leave? There is news."

"Then Wu Yuan practices in seclusion every day and does what he wants, so it is difficult to determine the exact departure time at the moment." The middle-aged man in black robe said with a wry smile.

The evil young man frowned slightly.

If the time cannot be confirmed, it will be difficult to ambush in advance.

"However, once the boat sets off, the travel time can be roughly confirmed." Seeing this, the middle-aged man in the black robe continued: "Moreover, the boat will stop at the 'Mingxiang Wharf' of the Nanyun Canal halfway to replenish supplies."

He lowered his head and said no more, waiting for the decision of the evil young man.

Half a sound.

"Their departure time is uncertain, and they leave the city. They are the most vigilant when they first set off, and it is inconvenient to do anything." The evil youth opened his eyes and said softly: "I will ask Senior Sister Yu for help, and arrange some people to assist me. Let's do it around the Mingxiang Wharf of the Yunyun River."

"Fight, kill that Wu Yuan in one fell swoop."

"Your subordinates, choose some smart and capable people, and set off with me to Mingxiang Wharf tonight." The evil youth ordered.

"This subordinate understands." The middle-aged man in black robe nodded repeatedly.

Transfer people?

As long as he doesn't let himself go, and most of the strength of this stronghold is withdrawn, the middle-aged man in black robe has no objection.

On the contrary, if the task fails, and the higher-ups investigate, he can take the opportunity to dump all the problems accumulated in the past on the evil young man.

The middle-aged man in the black robe was about to step down.

"By the way, you will also go with me on this mission." The voice of the strange young man was indifferent.

The second day.

Licheng, Wu Mansion Intermediate Court.

Wu Yuan, Gu Ji, Wan Qin, Wu Xiong and other guards, Wu Qiming and a large number of people gathered here.

"Yuan'er, we are going to Nanmengqianli. You must pay attention to safety along the way." Wan Qin asked.

"Mother, I just went to Nanmeng Mansion to verify my strength, and I will naturally come back after everything is over." Wu Yuan said helplessly.

In the past two days, Wan Qin has said it many times.

The mother is worried when the child travels thousands of miles.

Besides, going to Nanmeng this time will pass through several counties, and the round trip is more than a thousand miles away?

"Brother Wu, I'm grateful to you for taking care of me this way." Wan Qin glanced at Wu Yuan, then looked at Wu Xiong at the side.

"Haha, sister-in-law, don't worry."

Wu Xiong was wearing civilian clothes and carrying two short guns on his back. He was straightforward: "With me here, you don't have to worry about Wu Yuan's safety."

He swears by it.

"Patriarch." Wu Yuan looked at Wu Qiming.

"The news that you have become a special recruit of the martial arts academy has been sent back to the clan." Wu Qiming said: "The clan sent a letter, I hope you can find time to go."

"Master?" Wu Yuan frowned slightly.

He has no liking or dislike for the head of the Wu family, but he insists that more things are worse than less things, so he doesn't want to go.

"Although I am independent from the Wu family in Licheng, I will always be a family with them." Wu Qiming looked at Wu Yuan and sighed: "When the time comes, if you really have time, you should go there."

"Okay." Wu Yuan nodded, and he also understood that he had nothing to do with the main sect.

But there must be something involved between the two branches.

Maybe, the chief sect has ordered to come to Wu Qiming.

Go by yourself, so what?

Nanmeng Wu family, after all, is just a medium-sized family in Fucheng, comparable to the Luo family in Licheng, how capable can it be?

Everyone communicated.

"Lei Tao, let's go first. You can turn back when the boat enters the canal." Wu Xiong said to another Wei Wuzi who was wearing heavy armor.

"Yes." The mighty Wuhanzi said solemnly, and gave an order: "Let's go."

Wow! Wow!

I saw him leading a group of people, filing out, walking out of the middle courtyard along the gate, and walking towards the outer courtyard.

There are a total of twelve people in this team, ten of them are wearing 'City Guard Armor'.

A young man was wearing a martial arts school uniform. He was about the same height and build as Wu Yuan. He even had a similar face shape. He also wore makeup and lowered his head. At first glance, he looked like Wu Yuan.

There is another person, whose attire is similar to that before the ancient era.

Soon, this team disappeared from everyone's sight, and the gate of the middle courtyard was closed immediately.

"Wu Yuan, this is a suspicious soldier arranged by the county guard."

Wu Xiong said with a smile: "The 'Supervision Division' in the county has noticed that many forces are secretly spying on your whereabouts in the past few days. Although the possibility of real action is very low, we have to guard against it."

"So, we let out the wind, and you will go to Namco by boat."

"The stand-in will be careful all the way, try not to show your face, and board the boat directly in a carriage." Wu Xiong said solemnly: "When their boat sets off and attracts the attention of all parties, we will pretend to leave the city and ride to the city eighty miles away. 'Qinglong Beach', there is another boat prepared by the sheriff for us."

Wu Yuan nodded slightly.

I don't care much about assassination.

After all, with the talent currently displayed, it is very rare for the hostile forces of Hengyunzong to send second-rate masters to assassinate.

Send first-class experts? The probability is extremely small.

However, it was beyond Wu Yuan's expectation that the county guard Jiang Dongque could make such a thorough arrangement, and he couldn't help but praise "careful" in his heart.

How can there be an idiot who can be a sheriff?

Everyone waited for another hour.

"Wu Yuan, let's leave through the back door in batches, enter the 'Yang Mansion' next door, and then ride out of the city on horseback." Wu Xiong said.

Wu Yuan has nothing to do.

Actually, all twelve of them have changed their outfits. They are all knights of the rivers and lakes, and their makeup has also changed.

Even, Jiang Dongque arranged six more ordinary city guard sergeants to accompany them.

In this way.

There are already suspected soldiers. The original group of twelve people has been changed to 'eighteen people', which will minimize the possibility of exposure.

As Wu Xiong expected, the boat on which the suspect soldiers were boarded left, and a group of 18 of them left the city without any disturbance at all.

Such a team of knights is very common in any of the seven states of the Central Plains.

"Don't begrudge the horsepower, speed up, and strive to arrive at Qinglong Beach within an hour." Wu Xiong said: "At that time, we will board the boat and set off directly. It will be faster than the boat of the suspects, and it will be the safest."

"good."

"Let's go!" A group of eighteen people galloped along the "official road".

This official road was established during the heyday of the Chujiang Empire. The ground is solid and thick, and a post station will be set up every few tens of miles.

Together with the prefectures, counties, and counties within the territory.

Ensure that information can be delivered as quickly as possible!

Since Hengyunzong has fully ruled the land of several prefectures, in terms of the degree of control over the place, it is better than that at the end of the Chujiang Empire.

Along the way, occasionally you will encounter convoys and pedestrians.

But when encountering Wu Yuan and his cavalry, they would give way one after another.

As long as it's not an idiot.

When you see a team of knights with all the members riding the 'Xishuang Big Horse', you know that it is very difficult to mess with. You must know that a Xishuang Big Horse is worth hundreds of taels of silver.

"With such a fast speed, even if there is someone there, there is a high probability that they will be thrown away." Wu Xiong's laughter echoed in the wind: "However, Wu Yuan, your riding skills are not weak."

"Not as good as you, Uncle Wu." Wu Yuan laughed.

He has no experience in riding a horse. However, a powerful warrior has a high degree of body control, and with a little adaptation, he can rival some powerful knights.

"but!"

Wu Yuan was calm on the surface, his eyes kept scanning the sides of the road: "There is no sign of being followed, why do I always feel that someone is staring at me?"

After his spiritual sense reached the Dantian Palace, Wu Yuan's perception has become extremely sharp!

...almost three thousand meters above the ground.

A large light blue bird with wings spread about two meters is constantly circling and soaring.

Its body looks like a big eagle, and the color of its whole body almost blends with the color of the sky, making it difficult for people on the ground to notice it!

Only those pair of cold eyes glowing with black light, looking down, staring at the straight official road at high speed, like little members of the cavalry.

"Dongzhou Birds and Birds Record": Among the mountains where Dongzhou and Minzhou meet, there are strange birds whose feather colors change with the seasons, which are indistinguishable from the color of the sky. , It can travel thousands of miles a day at an extremely fast speed, and the world calls it an 'invisible bird'.
