Chapter 397 Tracking
At this time, the donkey cart of the high-banner owner had already gone for a while, and Zhang Xiaohua was afraid of delaying her business, so she said, "To tell you the truth, your brother-in-law's team has already gone west from here, and it seems that they have discovered something. Useful clues. Moreover, I am not a thief who hijacked your niece, if you want to find your brother-in-law, you can go west."
After hearing this, Yu Deyi turned his head to look at the path to the west, walked slowly towards that side, but said in his mouth: "Since you are not a thief, how do you know that I am looking for a girl?"
Zhang Xiaohua laughed loudly, but said in her mouth: "Yes, this is what I want to tell you now. If you want to find your little niece, then you should not go west."
"Huh?" Yu Deyi stopped curiously and asked, "Why?"
"Because, that's the thief's plan to lure the tiger away from the mountain. Ximian is just a young man, but the real thief is riding a donkey cart."
"Ah?" Yu Deyi asked in surprise, "How do you know?"
Zhang Xiaohua said with a smile: "Just when I pulled you over, that thief came out of the village in a car, and he went straight to the east."
"Why didn't I see it?" Yu Deyi asked.
"Because I'm taller than you."
"This..." Looking at the masked man in front of him who was only a few fingers taller than him, Yu Deyi was speechless. This didn't seem to be a very accurate reason.
"Then why didn't you stop him? You are not good at martial arts alone, the two of us are enough, right? Or, if you chase after him, I'll report to my brother-in-law right away?"
Zhang Xiaohua shook her head, and said: "If I stop him, I can only save your niece, but no one else can. Besides, if you report the letter now, let alone when you come back, will you still find the thief?" It’s not easy for you to find his lair.”
Yu Deyi was also a smart person, so he immediately understood what Zhang Xiaohua meant, and said, "Then your Excellency means to follow that donkey cart? Just the two of us chasing it?"
Zhang Xiaohua secretly slandered: "Nonsense, do you think I want to take you there? If it wasn't for the fear that you might run into Lord Gao Banner just now, or that you would report the news to your brother-in-law who doesn't know the truth, I would take you. go?"
There was no expression on his face, he just nodded.
"There must be a lot of people in the thief's lair. You and I may not be their opponents. I think it's better to inform my brother-in-law first."
Zhang Xiaohua stared at him coldly and didn't speak.
Seeing this, Yu Deyi felt a chill in his heart, and immediately said: "Okay, since Your Excellency is very good at martial arts, then... well, I will risk my life to accompany the gentleman, and I will go to the wolf's den with you."
Yu Deyi understood that this man would definitely not let him go. If he didn't follow him, he might be killed immediately. The feeling of being grabbed by the back of the neck just now was very uncomfortable.
"Okay, that's very good. Brother Yi took the initiative to invite Ying, and I didn't force you at all." Zhang Xiaohua said with a smile: "Besides, brother is going here because of his niece? His heart is commendable."
Yu Deyi pouted secretly.
Zhang Xiaohua roared in a low voice, Sixiang Huanhuan galloped from a place outside the village, approached, Zhang Xiaohua floated up and said with a smile: "Brother Yi, get on the horse?"
Yu Deyi stared at the mule in astonishment, remained silent for a while, and finally asked, "Your Excellency, just...just ride this one? Can you catch up with that donkey cart?"
Zhang Xiaohua smiled and said: "Isn't it just a donkey cart? It's not a horse cart, why can't it catch up?"
There are also speechless, yes, didn't they just say donkey carts, using mules to chase donkeys is exactly the opposite.
After thinking for a while, he also put away the long sword, got on the horse, shook the reins, and the bay red horse galloped out.
Zhang Xiaohua also patted Huanhuan's bald horns, her four hooves were flying like crazy, and she followed closely behind the bay red horse without falling.
After walking for a while, Yu Deyi heard a voice behind him: "Brother Yi,
It's better to go slowly, chasing the donkey cart at this speed, we can catch up soon, we'd better hang at a distance, what do you think? "
As soon as Yu Deyi turned around, his eyeballs almost fell out. The ugly mule followed closely behind him, and the masked man was sitting cross-legged on it. Looking at the mule, he seemed to be able to do anything with ease. This, is this still a mule? ?
After Yu Deyi was surprised, he immediately put aside his contempt, obeyed Zhang Xiaohua's wishes, and slowed down the horse.
So, one horse and one mule walked slowly on the small road. Zhang Xiaohua knew what was left, but was it worthwhile? Since he arrived at the entrance of the village, he hadn't seen the donkey cart until Zhang Xiaohua tricked him into the small road. A little trace, where can I rest assured?
Can't help squinting at Zhang Xiaohua, thinking to himself: "Could it be that this guy's goal is me who is handsome and unrestrained?"
Thinking about it, I couldn't help feeling a chill in my heart.
But when he looked at that person, he didn't even look at himself. Instead, he closed his eyes, wondering what he was thinking, and he didn't seem to be interested in himself. I hope he was wrong.
Sure enough, after a meal, Zhang Xiaohua said: "This guy is really not ordinary cunning."
Then, the two continued to move forward, and when they passed the fork, Zhang Xiaohua didn't hesitate, and went directly to another south-facing intersection without hesitation.
Yu Deyi was shocked, how did this fellow know to go south?
Is it possible to stand tall and see far?
I'm not even a little shorter than him.
However, immediately, I realized in my heart that this guy is not alone, there must be his helper ahead, who has already made a mark on the roadside! Therefore, I no longer feel timid in my heart. Since I have helpers, I don't have to be a lonely hero like others.
All the way to the south, it turned out to be in the direction of Lu Town.
Moreover, this walk turned out to be two days long!
Fortunately, the high-flag owner on the donkey cart didn't take advantage of the night to travel, and he also stayed overnight at Xiaoxing, and most of the time he also slept or slept in the wild. But it's annoying, Zhang Xiaohua had to find a reason to escape far away, find a proper place to sleep, and wait until the next day to show up, but fortunately, Yu Deyi is also knowledgeable, knowing that he is far away from Pingyang City, He has nothing to rely on, he can only follow this mysterious knight, and it seems that this knight really has the same idea as himself, that is to save people, so he also obeys Zhang Xiaohua's arrangement very much, and does not run away or go forward to act on his own.
In the afternoon of this day, the donkey cart drove eastwards into a small road again, and the speed of the car increased significantly. Zhang Xiaohua was stunned, and then swept his consciousness forward. Sure enough, there was an extremely quiet village in front of him. Zhang Xiaohua was overjoyed, probably This is the destination of the high flag master.
Zhang Xiaohua said to Yu Deyi: "Brother Yi, hurry up a few steps, I think it's getting late, I just wonder if there is a place to stay up ahead?"
Yu Deyi was taken aback, and immediately looked up at the sky, very surprised, and thought to himself: "It's early in the day, where is it late? Could it be that this person is talking in his sleep? Seeing that he closes his eyes every day, he probably always sleeps at night. Insomnia."
He just said: "But listen to the heroes."
Zhang Xiaohua secretly smiled inwardly, and didn't speak to her. She patted the bald horns, and Huanhuan quickened her pace a little. Not long after the high-flag leader drove into the mountain village, both of them came to a place not far from the mountain village.
The village on the other side of the bare forest can be seen from a distance, Zhang Xiaohua pointed out with a smile: "Brother Yi, this mountain path seems to be dedicated to this mountain village, if there is no accident, the donkey cart has entered it. You said, since it is a special trail for walking, is it certain that someone will watch it here?"
Yu Deyi shuddered, shrank his neck and said, "Hero, can they see us?"
"Probably not, haven't we reached the end of the path? They don't have clairvoyance, right?"
After hearing this, Yu Deyi let out a long breath and said, "That's very good, but how about we go deep into the tiger's den next time, and obey the orders of the heroes."
Zhang Xiaohua looked at the very well-behaved Yu Deyi in front of her, how could she still look so arrogant in front of her a few years ago? Turning to look at the village in the distance, he said: "This is easy to handle, you can watch out for me here, I will go and have a look, if there is anything strange, or if there is any harvest, I will let you know. What do you think?"
"Ah? That's it." Hearing that Yu Deyi didn't need to be a lonely hero himself, he just had to beat the drums beside him. He was very surprised, and couldn't help but doubted in his heart: "This person eagerly deceived himself from Pingyang City. Let yourself be in charge? It's incredible, could there be some trap?"
Seeing Yu Deyi's hesitation, Zhang Xiaohua said: "Why don't Brother Yi go in by himself, how about I keep an eye out for Brother Yi here?"
Yu Deyi quickly smiled wryly, waved his hands and said: "Heroes, let's go in by ourselves. My martial arts are limited, so it's better to stay here."
That tone was far from the high-spirited one back then, Zhang Xiaohua was very surprised, hehe, that is, it was the same for anyone who was beaten up by a group of teenagers five years ago and lost his confidence.
After the arrangements were made, Zhang Xiaohua no longer rode the four elephants, but only performed lightness kung fu, leaped up the treetops, and leaned forward.
At this time, the owner of the high banner had already driven the donkey cart to the innermost part of the village, in front of a huge manor.
The gate of the manor was closed tightly, and the high flag owner was not surprised. He jumped off the donkey cart, walked to the gate, held the door knocker with his hand, and knocked rhythmically a few times, only to see a "know" from the door. When it was opened, a strong man poked his head out, saw Master Gao Banner, frowned and said, "Master Gao Banner, why are you here now?"
Master Gao Banner hurriedly cupped his hands and said, "Guan Qi, there are some mundane matters over there, but it's delayed, but today I came with something that the Lord needs, so please be accommodating."
After listening to Guanshi Qi, he looked at the donkey cart outside, and said with a smile, "It's still Master Gao Banner who is very powerful. He has completed the order given by the Lord so early. Come on, come to the corner gate, and I will open the door for Master Gao Banner."
The leader of the high flag arched his hands, went down the steps, and drove the donkey cart to the corner gate. At this time, the corner gate was already wide open, and a shadow wall in front was facing the corner gate. On it, a big tiger with white forehead and hanging eyes was staring vividly as he entered donkey cart.
