Chapter 139: Twenty-four people
Jin Zihao immediately replied: "I will send someone to look for him right away. You can settle here first and wait for my news." After that, he strode out.
Zhao Fan stood up immediately after Jin Zihao left, "You three will rest here first. I'll take a look at the environment here. It would be best if you can temporarily settle here. If it's inconvenient to hide, let's find another place."
Wild Rose, Su Yunyun, and Xue Shenqiang nodded and stayed in the hall.
Zhao Fan walked out of the hall and looked around the entire courtyard. The door was made of teak wood and was three inches thick. The door was two meters wide and two meters high. The four characters "Youyou Xiaoyuan" were written above the eyebrow of the door.
The characters were originally dark green. Due to the long time and no one taking care of them, the color has faded in some places and looks very old. It may not have been lived in for five or six years.
Looking at the courtyard, it is more than 500 square meters. In the middle is a rockery, about three meters high, covering an area of about 30 square meters. Standing on the top of the mountain, you can completely see the situation outside the courtyard.
The courtyard wall is about two and a half meters high. It is bare inside and outside, without any objects to block it, and it looks a bit empty.
On both sides of the hall, there are five rooms lined up in a row, and each room has an iron general guarding the door.
Zhao Fan looked inside and outside the courtyard three times before entering the hall, where he saw Su Yunyun and Wild Rose muttering quietly, and Xue Sharpshooter holding a teacup in his hand, quietly in a daze.
Zhao Fan coughed lightly, walked slowly to the table, pulled up a chair, and sat down.
The three of them heard the sound of "cough". Su Yunyunmei stopped talking and looked up at Zhao Fan. Xue Shenqiang also put down the teacup in his hand and was about to ask, but Wild Rose beat him to it.
"What's the situation like outside? Is this place suitable for us to live temporarily?"
Zhao Fan smiled and said: "It is true that no one has been to this courtyard for many years, and it will probably not attract the attention of outsiders."
"The courtyard is very open and has a good view. The outer wall of the hall leads directly to a dense forest at the back. I don't know how big that dense forest is."
"According to the layout of this courtyard, you can hide in a short period of time. If you are discovered by Feiying Hall, it will still be difficult to escape safely."
While Zhao Fan was describing the advantages and disadvantages, Ouyang Huixian ran in panting, raised his eyes and saw Zhao Fan and the others, and said anxiously:
"Brother Fan, I thought Jin Zihao was lying to me, but I didn't expect that you are indeed here. Have Xue Meijiao and the others come back? Why didn't you see her?"
Zhao Fan grabbed the teapot on the table, poured a cup of warm water, and handed it to Ouyang Huixian, "Drink some water quickly, don't worry, rest for a while, Xue Meijiao will be back soon."
Speaking of Cao Cao, Cao Cao arrived. Xue Meijiao stepped into the hall. Seeing everyone there, she asked doubtfully: "Jin Zihao has surrendered to us?"
Zhao Fan smiled and nodded, and just as he was about to speak, Jin Zihao walked in with more than ten people, and he said respectfully:
"Brother Zhao, my brothers, a total of fifteen people, are all here. If you have any orders, we will do it immediately."
Zhao Fanrang stood up and stretched out his hands to invite everyone to sit down. Everyone was not polite and found a place to sit down first.
Zhao Fan glanced at the crowd. Originally, there were only eight people on his side, but once Jin Zihao joined and the fifteen people he brought, the entire hall was already overcrowded, reaching twenty-four people.
Zhao Fan cleared his throat and said with a smile: "Welcome brothers from the Flying Eagle Hall to abandon the darkness and turn to the light and join our team."
"No matter what you have done in the past, write it all off. From now on, we are friends and brothers. Let's join hands and work together to create a world that belongs to us."
When everyone who came to Feiying Hall heard this, the gloomy look on their faces was wiped away. It was true as Dharma Protector Jin Zihao said, Zhao Fan and the others were indeed extraordinary.
Zhao Fan then continued: "The main purpose of returning to Tiandu City this time is to get rid of Fei Ying Tang, or disperse them, so that Yi Tianba can no longer be lawless, oppress the good, and dominate."
"Flying Eagle Hall, everyone must be familiar with it. It has a wide range of influence. It has thousands of brothers. Yi Tianba is ruthless and has superb martial arts skills. He is definitely not a kind person. If anyone is worried or scared, stand up now and I will not embarrass you.
, and, by distributing travel expenses, you can go wherever you want, as long as you don’t do anything wrong.”
After Zhao Fan finished speaking, he glanced at everyone. After two or three minutes, no one stood up.
Zhao Fan nodded with satisfaction, "Brothers, since everyone wants to stay, let's discuss together what should we do next?"
"If you want to defeat the Flying Eagle Hall, you must understand the current situation of the Flying Eagle Hall. Which one of you will tell you first?"
Jin Zihao was the first to stand up and described in detail the internal deployment of the troops at the helm of the Flying Eagle Hall, the garrison situation of the five hundred officers and soldiers led by Lu Yansong, and the situation of the four city hall leaders who were secretly monitoring Lu Yansong.
Then, Xue Meijiao and Deng Hu supplemented, and Ouyang Huixian and Deng Wen also talked about some phenomena in Tiandu City.
Next, the fifteen people brought by Jin Zihao also recounted what they saw and heard.
Zhao Fan listened quietly to everyone's speech, carefully analyzed the various situations he faced, and thought about how to deal with them.
After everyone finished speaking, they looked up at Zhao Fan. Seeing that he had not spoken, they remained silent for fear of interrupting his train of thought.
After a while, Zhao Fan gradually became clear from the chaotic thoughts. He carefully considered the idea in his brain and felt that there were no big loopholes. Then he looked at everyone with a smile.
"Through everyone's description just now, the situation of Feiyingtang is very clear. This is how I think about it. If there are loopholes, please bring it up and discuss it again to try to come up with a feasible solution."
"Today, we have twenty-four people, which can be divided into four groups of six people each. Wild Rose leads the first group, with four members: Deng Hu and Feiying Cousin. Xue Shenqiang leads the second group, with members
Xue Meijiao and the four Feiying cousins, Jin Zihao leads the third group, member Deng Wen and the four Feiying cousins, I lead the fourth group, and the rest are mine."
"Do you have any opinions on the above grouping situation?"
Ouyang Huixian curled up his small mouth and said displeasedly: "Brother Fan, I have an opinion. Just let me lead a group. I will never let you down."
Zhao Fan waited for a long time, but she was the only one who had any objections, so he could only smile and said: "You want to be the team leader, that's great. You can lead the fourth team, that's fine."
When Ouyang Huixian heard this, he said sheepishly: "Let's forget it this time. From now on, I will lead the first group, and you must promise me."
Zhao Fan shook his head helplessly and said yes repeatedly, thus avoiding her messing around, and continued:
"That's it for the grouping. The second question is, what weapons are everyone good at and how many are they missing? Each group will make statistics now."
After Zhao Fan finished speaking, not long after, the results came out. Since Jin Zihao had already had the idea of leaving the Flying Eagle Hall, his hardcore subordinates who followed him were already equipped with the best weapons.
Wild Rose reported: "The first group includes four spears, one machete, and one soft whip. The weapons are intact." After the soft whip around her waist was cut off by Yi Tianba, after several days of repair, it was now intact.
Xue Shenqiang reported: "The second group has four long guns, two short guns, and one iron gun. The weapons are in good condition."
Jin Zihao listened to the answers from the first two groups and said: "The third group has four long guns, one red tassel gun, and one horn scimitar. The weapons are in good condition."
Zhao Fan smiled and said: "The fourth group, one long sword, countless copper coins, three long spears, the weapons are in good condition."
Su Yunyun said with a smile: "I'm a doctor. I don't usually carry any weapons. If you have extra, just give me a long gun."
Zhao Fan smiled faintly, "That's no problem. After tonight, I'll get you two tomorrow, how about that?"
