Chapter 845 Everything Is Under Control
After discussing the business, Wei Tu will take his leave and leave.
He is on Qingtangwei's side, and he has other things to deal with, so he can't stay with Qin Shaoyou and others all the time.
In fact, even if he can stay around, Qin Shaoyou and Qin Qiaoer will persuade him to hide temporarily and not to expose him too early, so as not to let Dongchuanhou know that he is in their hands and there are hidden arrangements, which will arouse the suspicion of them again. suspicion and vigilance.
When getting up to send Wei Tu away, Qin Shaoyou thought of the spies Dongchuan Hou sent around the post station, and couldn't help asking: "Brother Wei didn't get spotted by the spies around here when he came, right?"
"No."
Wei Tu lifted his big sword on the door and put it on his shoulder, and said with a smile: "When I came here, I found that your place is not clean and there are many rats hiding here, so I made a small trick on them so that they can't see it. to me."
"Is it power words? The one that blinds the eyes?" Qin Shaoyou asked.
"no."
Wei Tu shook his head, patted the big sword on his shoulder, and let out a clanging sword sound.
"How troublesome is it to use Power Words? I used the back of my sword and knocked them all out."
Qin Shaoyou was startled.
Dazed with a sword? Is it so simple and rude?
However, it is quite in line with your burly figure and your fine tradition of "convincing people with virtue"... However, if you shoot such a big sword, are you sure you won't kill people?
Wei Tu grinned and continued: "Actually, even if you don't ask about this matter, I will tell you. After all, I have to ask you to help with the aftermath. Don't let these people wake up and realize that they were knocked out. "
"Brother Wei, don't worry, we will take care of it."
Qin Shaoyou rolled his eyes, thinking that this matter could be used.
Qin Qiaoer noticed this scene, so after sending Wei Tu away, she asked him, "Do you have any plans?"
"Sixth Sister still understands me. I plan to take this opportunity to further dispel Dongchuan Hou's suspicion and vigilance towards us."
Qin Shaoyou nodded with a smile, expressed his thoughts, discussed with Qin Qiaoer, and then called the red-clothed emissary to arrange the arrangement in the station.
After the arrangement was completed, Qin Shaoyou let out his blood and awakened the post officials and post pawns in the post station, as well as the spies and crows hiding around the post station.
As soon as these people and the crow were awakened, they immediately realized that something was wrong.
They quickly recalled that they were knocked out by a sneak attack instead of falling asleep on a errand. They were shocked and angry at once, fearing that it was the ghost of the messenger in red. When they saw it, they were surprised to find that the inn had become dilapidated. It sucks, like it's just been through a pitched battle.
As for their monitoring targets, those red-clothed emissaries, almost all of them were covered with blood, and many of them were wounded.
The spies suddenly felt one head and two big, and their minds were full of questions: How long have I been in a coma? What's going on here?
After Yicheng was surprised, he hurriedly found a messenger in red to ask about the situation.
The messenger in red is Zhu Xiucai.
According to what Qin Shaoyou and Qin Qiaoer taught, he said cursingly: "Just now, a group of spies from Qingtang and demons from the Black Lotus Sect teamed up to break into the post station and wanted to sneak attack us, but we killed them."
While speaking, he also pointed to several corpses placed in the yard.
These corpses indeed belonged to Qingtang spies and Black Lotus sect monsters. If you look carefully, you can find some remnants of Qingtang witch power and fierce evil spirit on them.
Qin Shaoyou and the others searched for the whereabouts of the Qingtang wizard in the city. Although they found nothing, they found the hidden Qingtang spies and the Black Lotus Sect demon.
After Qin Shaoyou and Qin Qiaoer decided to use the fact that the spy was knocked out by Wei Tu to make a fuss, Qin Shaoyou released the paper crane talisman and notified Cui Youxu and Su Jianqing to kill several of them with lightning speed. The spies of Qingtang and the monster of the Black Lotus Sect brought the corpse back to the post station and arranged it as a fierce battle scene.
After hearing Zhu Xiucai's words, Yicheng looked at the corpse on the ground again, and was startled. He hurriedly found an excuse, and ran to report the news to his upline.
The spies hiding around the inn also found out what happened by their own means - there were Qingtang spies and black lotus demons who came to the inn to attack the red envoys, and knocked them out in order to prevent these spies from warning .
There were also a few spies who probably discovered the arrival of these people and wanted to warn and resist, but they were killed in the end, and the death was miserable... their heads were broken.
These news were quickly gathered into the hands of Dongchuanhou.
In order not to make yourself look too useless and thus be punished, except for a small number of spies who reported truthfully and said that they passed out without finding anything, most of the spies said that they did see the Qingtang spies and The black lotus cult monsters approached the station, but before they could warn them, they were knocked down by these people with powerful evil methods.
Inside and outside the words, there is one meaning: it's not that we are useless, but the enemy is too cunning.
If it was just the red-clothed emissary who said that they had been attacked, Dongchuan Hou would still have doubts, but now there are not only the scene and the corpse, but also the spies he sent to testify.
Under such a combination of inside and outside, Dongchuan Hou was successfully fooled.
"Sure enough, as I expected, the Qingtang and the Black Lotus Sect really got mixed up. I let the red-clothed emissary investigate this case, and it was really a clever move. I let them bite dogs so quickly."
Dongchuan Hou was very satisfied with his ingenious plan to drive away wolves and tigers.
He didn't doubt that members of Qingtang and Black Lotus Sect would dare to attack the red-clothed emissary.
Those guys even dared to assassinate his son, and even dared to sneak into his marquis mansion to make troubles and attack the red-clothed emissary, what's so strange?
"The only pity is that I didn't kill all these red-clothed emissaries... No, it's not good to kill them all. It's easy for the court to suspect that I did it. It's better to keep a few alive and help me prove my innocence."
Thinking of this, Marquis Dongchuan suddenly flashed a fierce light in his eyes.
He was wondering if he should contact some people to pretend to be Qingtang and Black Lotus Sect, so as to increase the casualties of the red envoy.
After a while, he dismissed the idea.
"Don't worry, wait until the Red Clothes Messenger, Qingtang, and Black Lotus Sect continue to bite dogs. If the bites are not severe, it will not be too late for me to do it. This matter has to be discussed in the long run. No matter who you contact, you must not expose me... "
Because of this matter, Dongchuan Hou's evaluation of Qin Shaoyou, Qin Qiaoer and other red-clothed envoys dropped another notch. Although he was not negligent, he did not pay as much attention to it as he did at the beginning.
And this is exactly what Qin Shaoyou and Qin Qiaoer wanted.
Dongchuanhou is a fierce tiger entrenched in Qingtangwei, and it may snatch people and devour them at any time.
Before the reinforcements arrived, they had to find ways to reduce Dongchuanhou's suspicion and vigilance towards them. Only in this way can Dongchuanhou be dealt a severe blow at the critical moment and wiped out in one fell swoop.
In the next two days, besides searching for the soul of the Qingtang wizard in the whole city, Qin Shaoyou and the others were also investigating the babies born in the city in the past two days and the pregnant women who were about to give birth.
It's just that these two things didn't go very smoothly.
The situation encountered by the former was similar to the first day.
They searched in many places in the city, but only found some wandering ghosts, but they did not find the ghost transformed by the Qingtang wizard.
As for the latter, it is more troublesome to investigate than to find the soul.
If it is in other places, you can search from house to house with the identity of the red-clothed emissary.
But the situation in Qingtang Acropolis is different from other places.
People here are in panic because of the war. If they go door-to-door to search again, I am afraid that the suspicious babies and fetuses will not be found, and they will stir up civil uprisings first.
And Marquis Dongchuan would definitely not let go of such an opportunity to deal with them in a legitimate way.
At that time, even if Lu Bing wants to protect the calf, he can't protect him, so he has to grit his teeth and thank Dongchuanhou.
Qin Shaoyou and the others could only investigate secretly.
On the one hand, let Zhu Xiucai take a few red-clothed emissaries with agility, holding supernatural items that can distinguish breaths, flying beams and walls, sneaking into households to see if they have babies and fetuses of the right age, and for screening.
On the other hand, Su Jianqing was asked to go through the wall to transfer ownership in a spiritual state for screening.
In fact, Gu worms and paper figurines can also be used, but considering the people of Marquis Dongchuan, they are always watching them, fearing that too many hole cards will be exposed and cause suspicion, so it is useless.
Of course, Qin Shaoyou's [Debate] and [Wonderful Nose] also played a big role in the search operation.
"In the alley on the left, there is the sound of a baby crying. Write down the location, and let Xiucai and Jianqing come over to check later. Uh, wait, I smell the smell of the Black Lotus Sect..."
