Zuo Mengeng never let down his guard against Xu Yaqing.
It is easy to hide from an open gun, but difficult to guard against a hidden arrow.
The enemy on the surface, no matter how powerful, can still be aware of it.
If you can win, try your best to fight; if you can't, try to reduce losses as much as possible.
But Xu Yaqing is like a poisonous snake in the dark, you never know when she will bite you.
To deal with such an enemy, Zuo Mengeng's purpose is very clear.
Take the initiative and wait for Xu Yaqing to come to your door.
After receiving Zuo Mengeng's order, Zuo Fu and Zuo Gui got together and studied it carefully.
To be honest, the brothers were a little panicked.
Being on their own for the first time, they were both unsure whether they could complete the task.
But we can’t go to Zuo Mengeng and say we can’t.
Zuo Mengeng's power is growing rapidly, and there are gradually more capable people under his command.
At this time, if you don't work hard to stand out, you will definitely remain unknown in the future.
Since the day they ceased to be slaves, the eight of them have had only one thought.
No matter what, we must follow Zuo Menggengbo and have a glorious future.
Only if you do this task well will you have a future. Otherwise, you will never be able to hold your head high for the rest of your life.
"We have never been to Dongping, and we don't know the specific situation of Guo Yunbiao. Where should we start? Do you have any idea?"
Zuo Gui's eyes also darkened.
"Unlike the eldest brother, the second brother has also been to Liaodong. We have never even left Linqing. How do we know what it is like in Yanzhou Prefecture?"
Zuo Fu couldn't help but scratch his head.
"Then what should we do? Why don't we go there first and do it easier then?"
Zuo Gui disagreed.
"Don't act recklessly. It doesn't matter if you fail to fulfill the young master's instructions. It will make Xu Yaqing alert and run away. It will be difficult to catch her in the future."
Zuo Fu didn't have any ideas at all.
"Since Guo Yunbiao is a figure on the green forest road, he must be hiding in the pond. With our appearance as outsiders, we will definitely not be able to get in."
Zuo Gui said nothing, as if he had thought of something.
After about half a stick of incense, he made up his mind.
"Third brother, as the saying goes, it's all about the rivers and lakes. Now that Guo Yunbiao has a name on the Green Forest Road, even if it's just a pretense, he has to associate with the Jianghu fellows. There's no point in worrying about it here, why not go to the Green Forest Road? Senior, ask."
Zuo Fu asked: "Who should I look for?"
Zuo Gui has a clear understanding of Jianghu affairs.
"In this three-thirds of an acre of land in Linqing, of course I want to find the powerful Mr. Lu."
Mr. Lu Jingyuan, the chief escort of Changfeng Escort Bureau, is known to everyone in Linqing.
Lu Jingyuan has been an escort for more than 40 years without any mistakes, his signboard is loud, and his business is booming. The world admires him and gives him the nickname "Mighty on All Sides", which means that he can enjoy everything in the world.
When Zuo Fu and Zuo Gui came to Changfeng Escort Bureau, they happened to see a busy crowd inside and outside, with many people loading things onto the carriage.
Seeing a middle-aged man in a Chinese robe at the door, the two of them stepped forward.
"Excuse me, is Mr. Lu, the all-powerful and powerful man, in the house?"
The middle-aged man looked over and actually recognized the two of them.
"Ouch, isn't this Third Master Zuo or Fourth Master Zuo?"
Zuo Fu and Zuo Gui are unavoidable surprises.
"Do you know my brother?"
The man smiled and said: "Who on Linqing Road doesn't know the reputation of the Eight Tigers of the Zuo family? I heard that several of them went to the army and sought official positions. How did they come to the small temple of my Changfeng Escort Agency?"
With that said, he also introduced himself.
"My lord, Lu Tai, what you two are looking for is my father."
Lu Jingyuan is getting older and now he no longer works as an escort himself. His sons are in charge of the affairs of the Changfeng Escort Bureau.
Knowing this person's identity, Zuo Fu and Zuo Gui gave him away again.
"To be honest, brother, my two brothers have some affairs and would like to ask Mr. Lu for advice. If it is convenient, I would be very grateful."
After Zuo Gui said this, he gave the gift.
Although a box of Jingtai Zhai's four-color pastries is not an expensive gift, it is goodwill that someone from the officialdom came to visit and brought a gift.
Those who live in the world will suddenly become shorter when they meet those who live in officialdom.
Seeing that the two of them were so polite, Lu Tai knew that it was not a bad thing and hurriedly led the two of them inside.
"It's a coincidence that you two have arrived. If it had been a few hours later, I wouldn't have seen my father."
Zuo Fu thought of the luggage being moved at the door and asked, "Is Mr. Lu going on a long trip?"
Lu Tai did not hide anything.
"My father needs to go to Yanzhou Prefecture."
Zuo Fu and Zuo Gui looked at each other and secretly thought what a coincidence.
The Guo Yunbiao they were asking about was also from Yanzhou Prefecture.
The two of them followed Lu Tai all the way to the main hall, where an old man in his sixties was sitting.
Although his hair is gray, he has a majestic figure, a ruddy complexion, a broad mouth and a dignified appearance. He is playing with two iron galls in his hand, which shows his majesty in his youth.
"Father, the third and fourth masters of Zuofu are here to pay their respects."
Linqing's surname is Zuo, and Zuo Liangyu's family is famous. Especially recently, the closeness between the young master of the Zuo family and Zhizhou and Bingbeidao has been obvious to all.
When he heard that someone was coming from the Zuofu Mansion, Lu Jingyuan did not dare to neglect and took the initiative to greet him.
"The Changfeng Escort Bureau is a humble and humble house, and it is difficult to welcome distinguished guests. I have neglected you two gentlemen."
After the two sides met with each other, Zuo Gui got straight to the point.
"Old man, my two brothers are here on behalf of the rear camp."
This is to tell Lu Jingyuan that today's matter is not about the Zuofu, but about the military.
If it was a matter involving Zuofu, even if Lu Jingyuan didn't want to offend him, he could just pretend to be a snake. But if the military came forward, Lu Jingyuan would have to think about it.
Sure enough, after hearing what he said, Lu Jingyuan's expression changed slightly and he couldn't help but be more cautious.
"Two gentlemen, what did someone in the escort agency do? If someone breaks the law and violates discipline, the old man will never dare to cover it up."
Zuo Fu hurriedly comforted him and said: "The old man has misunderstood. It's not that someone in the house has done anything bad. My brother came here because he wants to inquire about some situations with the old man."
Hearing that he was here to inquire about news, Lu Jingyuan looked slightly calmer, but he still accompanied him carefully.
"You two gentlemen, just ask. The old man will tell you everything he knows."
Zuo Gui also realized that Lu Jingyuan did not dare to deceive, so he went straight to the point.
"The old man is a senior in the world. Do you know Guo Yunbiao, the Canglong of the North?"
As soon as these words came out, the faces of Mr. Lu and his son all became strange.
Lu Tai came forward on behalf of his father.
"I wonder why Fourth Master asked about Guo Yunbiao?"
Zuo Gui did not tell the truth, but mixed the truth with lies.
"Guo Yunbiao is involved in some matters in my back camp, Qian Zuo ordered us to understand it."
Who is Guo Yunbiao?
To put it mildly, he is a hero of the woods; to put it worse, he is a bandit.
