Chapter 2604 Kill the Old Thief【2】
The next day.
Before midnight, everyone got up, ate dry food, and prepared to set off.
Fengzhuang leader also came over with his troops and said to Qin Sanlang: "Second uncle, we will go with you, but we haven't decided yet whether we will help you in the end. We have to wait for other people to send new information."
Meng Hong was angry: "You old man really doesn't know what's good and what's good. It's your blessing that our Marquis of Qin is willing to accept you. If you still dare to dislike it, believe it or not, I'll beat you to death!"
Head Fengzhuang ignored Meng Hong and only looked at Qin Sanlang, waiting for his reply.
Qin Sanlang agreed: "Yes."
Meng Hong, He Min and others were very worried after hearing this. They hurried over and whispered to Qin Sanlang: "That old man is too dangerous and it is not safe to carry him."
Meng Hong also told what happened last night when he tried Fengzhuangtou's skills but lost to him, and how the poisonous arrow failed to kill Fengzhuangtou last night.
Added another sentence: "Since he has a powerful antidote, he must be hiding a fierce poison. If he poisons you, it will be over."
Qin Sanlang: "Brother Meng, don't worry. As long as my cousin is here, their poison can't harm me. If you take them with you, you can keep an eye on them better, and the people in Dafeng Village will be safer."
He looked at He Min again and said, "Uncle He, I want to conquer them... My father and Grandpa He both said that doing many things involves taking risks. As long as the risk is worth it, this group of people is worth taking. risk."
After hearing this, He Min knew that he must take Fengzhuangtou and the others on the road, so he could only nod in support: "You are right, Uncle He listens to you, but I have to keep an eye on them personally to prevent them from sneaking up on you, right?" It’s not good for you.”
Currently, he is the only one who has this ability.
"Sure." Qin Sanlang nodded in agreement. After catching a glimpse of Master Gui coming over, he said, "My uncle and the people from the Eagle Food Gang will keep an eye on them with you."
After Meng Hong left last night, he met Master Gui again and told him about Fengzhuangtou and the fact that Old Thief Lu might be the crown prince of Emperor Fengai. They discussed some countermeasures together before resting. Down.
"Old He, let's go." Master Gui called to He Min, and the two of them took two groups of people, sandwiching Fengzhuang head in the middle, and set off together to pursue Old Thief Lu.
Although it was like escorting a prisoner, Fengzhuangtou was not angry, just because he also wanted to take the opportunity to see the second uncle's ability, so as not to fall in love with the wrong person and disappoint all his subordinates.
Qin Sanlang did not disappoint Fengzhuang leader. Just the fact that he was chasing in disguise shocked him... so many soldiers and horses were all hidden, leaving only the most elite thousand cavalry, divided into three groups, to pursue the old thief. .
Not only was he marching at an extremely fast speed along the way, no one dared to stop him, nor did he even attract much attention, just because Qin Sanlang had a lot of tokens, and those tokens were very realistic. Once someone asked, he would pick up one. The token said: "We are from a certain family. There is too much chaos in the capital. We were ordered to go to the capital to take our master's family out. If you don't want to annoy our master's family, don't ask any more questions!"
Nowadays, the world is in chaos, and everyone is afraid of getting into trouble. After seeing that the token is correct, they let it go.
It's just that Feng Zhuangtou is still not satisfied: "The method is too crude, and it can only be used in today's world. If the world is more peaceful, such tricks cannot be used."
Master Gui: "As long as it's useful. Besides, no matter what the world is, what methods should be used? If it were a peaceful and prosperous time, we Brother Mu would not use this trick."
After hearing this, Head Fengzhuang didn't say anything anymore. He just sent a message to the palace army under his command, asking them to send the latest investigation results quickly... He was about to catch up with the old man Lu Er. He wanted to kill Lu Er before the second uncle. Before the old man could find evidence to prove that it was a fake.
The ghost master watched him write the letter, and then used the unique method of the Da Feng Palace Army to send the message... The red-beaked carrier pigeon, this is recorded in ancient books. It has been optimized through dozens of generations of blood. It was specially used by the emperor to send messages to his confidants. The general sent the message. When Dafeng was destroyed, all the pigeon breeds were burned by the fire. Unexpectedly, the red-beaked homing pigeon was still popular in the world.
And this person exposed such an important communication pigeon in front of him. It can be seen that this person is facing Saburo, so he can feel relieved.
On the night of the sixth day of July, Qin Sanlang and others were only thirty miles away from the convoy of the old thief Lu. The scouts from the Death Soldier Battalion came to report: "Qin Hou, they should have settled in Laogu Village, but the people behind them are very powerful. , we didn’t dare to get too close, for fear of alerting the enemy, so we only figured out a rough location, and we had to send a letter wolf or a letter eagle to find out whether we were settling down in Laogu Village.”
Meng Hong hurriedly said to Ma Wu next to him: "Brother Ma Wu, quickly let the messenger eagle fly out for a few rounds. After we find out the position, we can take action as soon as possible."
Qin Sanlang shook his head to stop: "Xinying is not good, the target is a bit too big, the old thief will stare at the sky, and it is very likely that he will be discovered."
Since the army used birds to release poisonous insects, people in Chu are now wary of flying birds in the sky.
Meng Hong: "What should we do?"
When he was in trouble, Feng Zhuangtou came over, took out two porcelain bottles, and poured out the medicinal centipedes in the bottles: "This is a medicinal centipede. It is small in size, crawls quickly, and can find the smell of medicine. This is how Hu Guanzhu used this method to give medicine to centipedes." The news we sent, now we just need to put the medicine centipede back to find Master Hu."
"There are such good things in the world, it's amazing!" Meng Hong's eyes lit up and he asked quickly: "How to use it?"
Fengzhuang first explained how to use it, and also took out a special silk paper and medicinal needle. He used the medicinal needle to apply concoction on the silk paper and tattooed it with words, and then slowly stuffed the silk paper into the belly of the medicinal centipede.
Well, Meng Hong felt his stomach hurt when he saw it: "The person who came up with this method was the prison chief, right?"
Normal people can't think of such a method.
Feng Zhuangtou said: "No, this method was created by a man."
Well, as expected, the person who invented this method of transmitting messages was not a normal person.
Fengzhuangtou took out another piece of silk paper and asked Qin Sanlang: "Second uncle, do you have anything to say to Guanzhu Hu?"
Qin Sanlang was not polite and said directly: "Please poison Master Hu and kill the dead soldiers under the old thief first."
Fengzhuangtou frowned, but didn't say anything and just complied.
Once done, release the Medicinal Centipede.
As soon as the medicine centipede landed on the ground, it crawled towards the old ancient village... It had many legs and crawled very fast, and soon disappeared into the vast night.
"How long will it take to come back?" Qin Sanlang asked.
Feng Zhuangtou: "The journey is not far. If nothing unexpected happens to Guanzhu Hu, we will be back within two hours."
Qin Sanlang immediately said: "Meng Hong, pass the order and let everyone rest where they are. After an hour and a half, get up and prepare for action."
"Yes!" Meng Hong hurriedly went to do it.
Fengzhuangtou handed a medicine bottle to Qin Sanlang: "Open it in an hour, and the medicine centipede will come back after looking for it."
After saying that, he left immediately without saying any more words.
After Master Gui nodded to Qin Sanlang, he quickly followed Fengzhuang Head, but this time he was much more relaxed... Fengzhuang Head was able to take the initiative to help and gave Qin Sanlang the concoction that could control the medicinal centipede, proving that He has made his choice.
It is considered appropriate to capture this group of Da Feng Palace troops.
…
Old Thief Lu did not live in Laogu Village, but settled in a Guanzi five miles away from Laogu Village. A group of his men were hidden here, and it was safer to live here.
Traveling on a hot day, Old Thief Lu was very old, and his health was really struggling. After arriving at Guye Guan, he originally wanted to have a full night's sleep, but Luo Huiniang and Mrs. Cui started to quarrel again.
That's right, Mrs. Cui has become aggressive and arrogant now. She will make trouble with him whenever she is energetic, making him dizzy and blinded several times. If this continues, sooner or later, he will die from chest paralysis due to their troubles!
