The distance from Mount Tai to Ningyang County is not that far, only two or three days.
Along the way, the two of them walked as the sun rose and rested as the sun set. Their walking was neither fast nor slow, and it was quite smooth.
However, something unexpected happened during this period.
What's going on?
Hit a pig!
While passing through a small canyon, I happened to run into a frightened wild boar. Unexpectedly, the pig did not deviate and ran towards Qi Dalang.
Who is not afraid of that impact?
what to do?
Climb a tree!
Yes, Qi Yu's first reaction was to climb a tree to escape.
The safest place is in a tree. Even if it is a sow, it is impossible to really climb a tree.
Unexpectedly, the pig was faster than Qi Dalang and actually arrived first and later.
Niang Xipi!
Climb quickly!
If you dawdle any longer, you will be pushed over by it!
However, the tree body was so slippery that even though Qi Dalang used his hands and feet, it did not leave the ground a foot.
"Bajie, I'm not a good cabbage, you'd better do it for someone else!"
However, the pig remained indifferent and continued its run!
Broken, dangerous!
Just when Qi Dalang was about to be climbed up by the fierce pig, Huang Fei, who was ready to go, started to move.
His movements are very fast and agile.
He didn't know where he took out a sharp tool like a sharp file. After turning over and jumping, he used the force to stab the wild boar's head and then straight into the brain.
Plop!
The second senior brother passed away.
Although this process was very stressful, the result was a near miss!
Fortunately!
After a while, Qi Yu regained his composure, and after repeatedly confirming that the pig was completely dead, he breathed a sigh of relief and sighed: "Brother Huang is really stronger than the pig!"
Huang Fei was stunned, then snorted coldly and didn't answer.
However, this incident also reminded Huang Fei that he should always be vigilant.
His duty is to protect Qi Yu's personal safety. If something happens to the rightful owner, the emperor will definitely hold him accountable.
Maybe, he will become a burial object.
Well, it's best to give him some means of self-protection, so that if he gets busy and fails to take care of him, he won't have the slightest ability to fight back.
Haha...yes!
Huang Fei smiled faintly, took out a small metal box about the size of a thumb from his arms, and handed it to Qi Yu's hand.
"This thing is given to you."
"what is this?"
"This is a pocket quiver that can be used for self-defense."
For self-defense?
It's a good thing!
No need to guess too much, as soon as you hear the name, you will know that it is some kind of concealed weapon, and it is also a small and mini version that is easy to carry.
Qi Yu took it and started playing with it.
Huang Fei introduced it: "There are some needles inside. When using it, you only need to gently pull the mechanism on it, and flying needles will shoot out." Then, he further explained.
Said: "Although the lethality of this hidden weapon is not great, it can buy you precious time to escape. Because of its light size, it is not easy to be discovered, so you can catch it unprepared."
Not very lethal?
I thought it was some kind of big killer, but unexpectedly it turned out to be a ticklish weapon!
However, this kind of thing is indeed very suitable for me. The dragon-slaying knife is powerful, but the key is that I can't dance it, so the practical one is the best!
Qi Yu thanked Huang Fei and then carefully put away the pocket quiver.
After this small episode, the two of them moved on.
At this time, Qi Yu didn't know that in the near future, this hidden weapon would bring him a turning point in his destiny. Of course, this is a story for another day.
…
Early the next morning, the two finally arrived at their destination, Ningyang County.
After stopping and taking a look, Qi Yu couldn't help but be stunned.
This is a mountain village built near the mountains. It is relatively densely populated, but it gives people the feeling of desolation.
Looking at the terrain nearby, we can see that there are winding mountains and mountains on all sides, making it a typical old mountainous area.
It's weird.
How could Princess Sichuan be attracted to such a rural place?
Yes, what is she here for?
Well, let’s not make random guesses first, and let’s understand the actual situation.
…
hiss!!
After Huang Fei completed four surveys, he suddenly blew a loud whistle into the sky. After a while, two people who looked like farmers came out.
"Master Qi, these two people are my subordinates..."
"Haha, they look quite similar..."
Yes, the true identities of those two people are internal guards.
After a cup of tea.
In a certain old house with three thatched houses that had been abandoned for a long time, Qi Yu was sitting and listening to the report of the secret guard.
Yes, according to Qi Yu's plan, he must first investigate Princess Sichuan's affairs and then search for her. The two matters have priorities and can be handled separately.
So, we need to first understand the actual situation here.
According to the information reported by the secret guard, the woman suspected to be Princess Sichuan did not leave this place after sneaking into it, but showed up every once in a while.
Generally speaking, the woman hid herself very well. The secret guards continued to track her for several days, but still couldn't find much clues.
In other words, the current monitoring effect is not ideal.
Why is this the case?
Huang Fei believed that there was probably a stronghold here that was unknown to people and could be hidden, so Princess Sichuan could cleverly avoid detection.
Well, that makes sense.
I remember that when she was in Yongchuan Mansion, she was very good at hiding things.
However, not only is this not the focus of the case, it has become a point of doubt.
Why do you say that?
The emperor said that Princess Chuan was currently in contact with some unknown force. The purpose of her visit was also to find out the matter. Who could she come into contact with while she was hiding in this remote place?
Could it be that there is a big shot hiding among these local farmers?
In fact, this guess is not true!
Because the secret guards had already checked relevant information in local households, and after verification, they learned that these local farmers are all aboriginal residents, and their backgrounds are very simple, and there is no vague background.
In other words, among these locals, there is no so-called big shot.
If this is the case, who is that unknown force? Where are they currently hiding?
In fact, it is not too difficult to solve this question. As long as we catch the woman who is suspected to be the Princess of Sichuan, we will know it at the first trial.
In this regard, Huang Fei said confidently: "Currently, the secret guards have already targeted everyone here. It is only a matter of time before they catch her."
Yes, for now, all internal guards who can be mobilized are deployed here, and all entrances and exits are closely monitored, so it should be foolproof.
This kind of containment is almost equivalent to catching a turtle in a jar!
That's why Huang Fei is so confident.
Qi Yu believed that it was definitely not as simple as it seemed.
How could Princess Sichuan sit still and wait for death like this?
You know, she not only successfully deceived the emperor, but also deceived Mr. Wenzhu who was lurking in Yongchuan Mansion.
Waiting for death is definitely not her style!
Suddenly, a bold guess arose in Qi Yu's heart: Maybe he had fallen into her trap to lure the tiger away from the mountain!
