Lu Liang, Lu Fang and his party had already turned around and headed west.
Of course Lu Fang didn't know where he was.
Wu Gou's secret envoy in Tongchuan City tracked the three carriages at the Puzhou border, but all they saw were three empty carriages. Even the horses pulling the carriages were missing.
Of course, I can't help but yell.
Lu Fang rushed to Tongchuan City ahead of Ling Chai, which actually put those who were chasing him into a passive position.
Now, he has been tricked into trying to escape from his shell.
Even people like them can't help but feel a headache. They have no clue about the next hunt.
The sky is huge, and if they want to find Luliang and the others, they will undoubtedly have to look for a needle in a haystack. Unless Luliang and the others hit the county town themselves, it's almost the same.
But could Lu Liang and the others be so stupid?
…
Kyoto.
Royal study room.
The old eunuch knelt in front of Liang Hanmin's dragon case.
Liang Hanmin's face was very ugly, even ferocious and terrifying.
Clench your hands tightly.
Just now, the old eunuch reported to him another piece of news from the local Wu Gou An Tang. From Sanquan County.
"What are you going to do next?"
After a long while, Liang Hanmin said something.
The old eunuch put his forehead on the ground and said: "I have already dispatched experts to Tongchuan! Since Lu Fang was discovered by our people in Sanquan County, I think that his speed will definitely not be able to keep up with Ling Chai. By then... I will arrange it in Tongchuan."
The masters in Sichuan City can still catch them all in one fell swoop."
"Catch them all in one fell swoop..."
Liang Hanmin sneered, "What I'm worried about is whether Lu Fang will have arrived in Tongchuan City at this time and notified Lu Liang and others to leave. If he can do something like traveling two thousand miles in one night, he may not be able to do it a second time.
.And...there are many people in the world who would be happy to see Wu Gou make a fool of himself, right?"
The old eunuch didn't answer.
"Be prepared!"
Liang Hanmin paused for a moment, then continued: "It would be best if we could catch them all in Tongchuan City, but if they escape from Tongchuan...where do you think they will go?"
"Nishiyama Nogawa!"
The old eunuch replied without thinking.
Wu Gou, of course, also has their intelligence agency. They know everything about the Jianghu in various places, but they still have a general idea.
Apart from Xishan Yechuan, he could not think of any other place that would be more suitable for Luliang and the others to hide at this time.
Liang Hanmin narrowed his eyes, "If you are unable to catch up by then, I... will launch the Tongchuan Forbidden Army. It's time to dig out the cancer in Xishan Yechuan. But... you have to take care of Lu Fang's life."
Keep it.”
As he spoke, he spread his hands and said, "If I can obtain the manufacturing technology of such weapons, I will not hesitate even if the Xishan Yechuan becomes a river of blood and the Tongchuan Forbidden Army suffers all casualties!"
In his hand, there were several bullets and some shrapnel.
This was dug out by Wu Gou's people from the corpses of those in Luojiao County.
"yes……"
The old eunuch agreed and slowly exited the imperial study.
Liang Hanmin raised his hand to his nose, smelled it, and whispered to himself, "Gunpowder..."
It was not that there was no gunpowder in the Dayu Dynasty, it was even used in the military. However, he had never seen such a delicate and compact firearm that could destroy Wu Gou An Tang in Sanquan County.
You must know that although Sanquan County is only a county town, the person in charge of Wu Gou An Tang is also a martial artist of no less than fourth grade.
…
In the afternoon.
Lu Liang, Lu Fang and other large groups of people were resting beside a certain mountain road.
There is a very small village on the hillside here, with only a few scattered households.
There are mountains on the left and a turbid rolling river on the right.
After coming out of Tongchuan City, they occasionally rested at "stations", but the stations in these villages only kept two or three horses at most, and conditions did not allow them to change horses.
The speed of travel is naturally not as fast as when Wang Ergou took Lu Fang and Liang Siqi on their way.
Even if a man can endure it, a horse cannot.
There were men carrying fodder from the station to feed the horses while munching on dry food.
Lu Liang, Lu Fang, Lao Xu, Gao Shun and others were squatting on the ground.
Gao Shun said: "My boss, Mr. Xu, this is already in Jianzhou. I plan to go to Xishan Yechuan along the borders of Longzhou, Meizhou and Yazhou. These border areas are sparsely populated, and the government usually ignores them.
Yes, even the tax collectors are not coming. Although the road is more difficult, it is not easy for the canines of the court to find us."
Xu Jingnian nodded lightly, "You are familiar with the environment here, so you can make the decision. I only want the young master to reach Xishan Yechuan safely."
"yes!"
Gao Shun agreed with a very serious expression.
"Puch."
At this moment, Liang Siqi, who originally looked a little tired, suddenly laughed out loud.
Everyone looked at her.
There was a trace of shyness in Liang Siqi's eyes, she restrained her expression and said to Lu Fang: "You must not know where Jianzhou is, right? This is already within Chengdu County and borders Tongchuan County."
She just saw Lu Fang's blank eyes.
When it comes to Lu Fang, he is the best among his peers in terms of literary talent and martial arts. But this Lu Fang's crazy attribute...
Although she had seen it many times, she still couldn't help but laugh every time.
Lu Fang's face was a little embarrassed, and he secretly swore in his heart that he would have to memorize all the maps of Dayu in his head after the Xishan Yechuan.
Although you may still be confused about the direction, you won't be able to tell which part of Dayu you are in even if someone tells you a place.
This is really inconsistent with my "talented persona".
Then he looked at Lu Liang and abruptly changed the subject, "Brother, I haven't heard you talk about your plans after going to Xishan Yechuan!"
Lu Liang looked at Xu Jingnian.
In fact, until now, he is still not the leader. Whether it is the contact with the martyrs of the previous dynasty or anything else, Xu Jinnian has been managing it alone in these years.
He is like the horse driving the carriage, while Lu Liang and Lu Fang are the people sitting in the carriage.
Seeing Lu Liang looking at him, Xu Jingnian said: "Even if we can successfully reach Xishan Yechuan, the minions of the imperial court will definitely find us. I think what we should consider now is how to survive."
Speaking of this, he looked at Lao Xiao and others, his eyes seemed solemn, "If Liang Hanmin just sent Wu Gou, a watchman, or masters in the world to assassinate, with Lao Xiao and the others here, plus these
I secretly transferred the masters to Xishan Yechuan in 2015, so we can have room to compete with them. But what I am worried about is...the current rebel army is in a difficult situation everywhere. After Liang Hanmin determined to wipe out the rebel army, there have been many attacks one after another.
The rebel army has been suppressed. If he sends a large army to encircle Xishan Yechuan... In front of thousands of cavalry, the power of any master will become insignificant."
Everyone couldn't help but look a little solemn as they listened.
