Chapter 354 - The situation is about to be chaotic
"Brother Mu, how are you today?"
Yan Qingchuan entered the carriage with the chill of early spring, but he spoke with a bit of guilt. If it weren't for the young man slumped limply in the carriage, others would have thought he was greeting him from a long-time friend.
Gu Xiao, who had no internal strength, followed the chilly early spring wind as he got into the carriage, and wanted to stretch out his hand to tighten the thick clothes around him. When he reached out, he had no strength, so he had to put down his hand slumpedly and help himself.
He mocked and said: "I drank three cups today to relieve the chill, and took a pill of Ruanjin Powder to make my whole body feel weak."
Gu Xiao had no other intention, but Yan Qingchuan, who felt guilty in his heart, heard it full of ridicule. He only sighed with guilt: "Brother Mu, why do you have to be stubborn?"
Gu Xiao smiled bitterly, but with an inference in his heart, he tried and said: "I'm not stubborn, I just can't help myself. But Brother Yan, if you don't move around in the army these days, but only stay by my carriage, is it against you, General Yu Gao?"
Appointment?"
"Brother Mu, don't worry anymore. I can't explain the reason to you now. I will let you know when the time is right." Yan Qingchuan could easily see through these tempting words.
Old Chen in the carriage also took over the words: "Brother Mu, it's not that you can't help yourself. You have always had a choice, but you are unwilling to follow General Gao's advice. This is why you have been trapped.
The reason for being in this carriage."
"Hahaha, Senior Chen is right. As the saying goes, if you don't listen to the old man's words, you will suffer the consequences. I asked the wrong question. Please ask Senior to punish me with three more drinks." Although the young man is physically weak, he has a pair of stars.
There was a cunning light in his eyes, and he actually opened his mouth to ask for a drink from Lao Chen.
Old Chen smiled and said, "As long as Brother Mu figures it out, it's not a problem if he wants to drink the world's best wines, let alone these military spirits."
After saying that, he took out the wine bag, filled the wine cup, and held it in front of the young man.
Gu Xiao carefully watched Lao Chen's careful manner when he was pouring wine, and his starry eyes showed a little light, but when Lao Chen filled the wine cup, he quickly covered it up and returned to his helpless and limp appearance.
He tried hard to open his mouth, put the wine cup to his lips, and took a sip with great effort. Just when he was about to continue to get some useful clues to Lao Chen and Yan Qingchuan, he heard the rapid sound of horse hooves outside the carriage.
Soon, Xu An spoke directly about the thirty-mile retreat.
Lao Chen usually only works as a medical officer, so he didn't find this sudden retreat surprising. However, Yan Qingchuan was stunned for a moment, and then his expression suddenly changed. He cupped his fists in salute to Gu Xiao, then opened the car curtain and walked out.
When Chen saw this, he realized what was going on. He glanced at the limp young man, confirmed that the properties of the Ruanjin Powder were still there, and followed Yan Qingchuan out.
Yan Qingchuan and Lao Chen temporarily retreated from the carriage for more than ten feet. Xu An seemed to have lingering fears about the young man's martial arts, and was still uneasy, worried that the young man could hear the conversation between the three of them, until Lao Chen said that the young man was poisoned by Ruanjin San and could not listen.
After a few people were talking, Xu An finally spoke.
"General Gao ordered me to invite you two to discuss it."
"Order the patrol to retreat thirty miles? The day of military regulations is approaching, and even Wan Jun can't stop the patrol general from entering the city. This Shan Bin is so brave, I don't know what his intentions are." Yan Qingchuan is a knight
The battalion commander, who was familiar with military discipline, immediately noticed something fishy.
"Commander Yan, please be patient. We still don't know the reason for this. Since General Gao has summoned us, let's go discuss it first." Lao Chen was calm and said frankly that it was powerful.
Xu An looked at the soldiers who had been ordered to retreat, and his heart became more worried. He said to the two of them: "Medical Officer Chen is right. Commander Yan, we'd better go see General Gao first and make long-term plans."
The three of them had made an agreement and rode away, but they didn't notice that the carriage curtain trapping the young man, more than ten feet away, seemed to be blown up by the wind and slowly fell down.
The young man in the car looked away from his previous limp appearance, his eyes were shining with starlight, and he took advantage of the slight gap to watch a few people. It was not until the three of them drove away that he lowered the car curtain that was partially opened in his hands.
During these days of being trapped in the carriage, Gu Xiao found that whenever Lao Chen poured wine, he was extremely careful, as if he was afraid that something in his sleeve would accidentally fall into the wine cup, so he guessed that if it weren't for the soft tendons in Lao Chen's sleeve,
Even if the antidote is scattered, it is something you don’t want to touch.
Lao Chen and Yan Qingchuan may not know it yet, but the boy is still paralyzed and unable to walk even though he takes Ruanjin Powder every day.
It's luck, but if you take the same medicine too much, the effectiveness of the medicine will gradually decrease.
Lao Chen and the other two didn't seem to notice, and they continued to feed the young man Ruanjin Powder according to the time of day. Until one day, the young man had completely calculated the time of Ruanjin Powder's effect, and wanted to take advantage of the time when Lao Chen came to give him the medicine again.
He took the opportunity to attack, but then he thought about Mr. Yun's whereabouts, so he resisted the desire to take action.
Gu Xiao, who had already had the strength to escape, still had to endure the pain of Ruanjin San every day, but he was more willing to suffer from Ruanjin San than to try to prove what he had speculated in his mind.
"Since it has been going on for so long, we might as well take a look at what happened. At worst, we can wait until we enter the city and then wait for an opportunity to escape. Then we can also search for Mr. Yun's whereabouts in the city. I just don't know if Miss Jiang and the others have already entered the city.
Beicheng." The young man murmured in his heart. Although his face was still pale and limp, the concentrated light in his eyes could no longer be concealed.
While I was thinking about it, my ears suddenly moved slightly, as if I heard something, and I hurriedly tilted my body again, returning to the drugged and powerless state.
The car curtain was quietly opened, and a man quietly got into the car while the troops were retreating outside. When he saw the person coming, even the young man couldn't help being shocked, and said softly: "Why is it you?"
The visitor was no more than a young man with a pair of big eyes, and he spoke urgently to Gu Xiao: "Don't worry, my dear benefactor, although the patrols on guard are vigilant, they are currently busy with retreating troops. I am small and there is no one around."
Notice that Sixth Brother has already met us outside. As long as we escape while the guard is not tight now, and get into the forest outside, no matter how many patrols there are, they will not be able to find us."
Looking at the messy little bean, all kinds of feelings came to her heart. Mo Jun was here. Her little body had to endure so much hardship to keep up with the marching pace of the patrol. At this time, the frost on her long eyelashes was still condensed.
Weirong, but still thinking about saving himself from trouble.
Unfortunately, I still have Mr. Yun's whereabouts to investigate. The current patrol is indeed the best place to investigate. If I leave here, not to mention attracting pursuers, Yan Qingchuan's intention of defecting to Gao Deng will no longer be possible.
may be known.
Thinking of this, Gu Xiao stretched out his hand to wipe away the mess on Xiaodouzi's face, and then he made up his mind and said: "Xiaodouzi, do you believe in your benefactor?"
"As for my benefactor, you are my benefactor from Mo County. Of course Xiaodouzi believes in you." Xiaodouzi replied hurriedly.
"Okay, if you believe me, try to enter Yanbei City first and find an inn to stay with the six brothers. I will come to find you after I finish my work."
Xiaodouzi was puzzled. His benefactor was so seriously injured in Mo County and was escorted all the way here by the patrol. Why did he open his mouth as if he did it on purpose? When he was about to ask a question, he saw that his face was pale and limp.
The helpless benefactor raised his palm lightly, and his pale face turned rosy in just one breath.
Xiaodouzi understood instantly and immediately said with a smile: "Xiaodouzi should have guessed a long time ago that my benefactor will not be captured by these bad guys because of his superb martial arts skills. It turns out that my benefactor has already planned it. This is good. Xiaodouzi will leave now.
So as not to ruin the great favor of our benefactor."
When Gu Xiao saw Xiaodouzi trying to stretch her head to look out, he couldn't bear it and wanted to keep her by his side. However, he then thought about the fact that there were two masters in the patrol, Yan Qingchuan and Lao Chen, and he had to relent.
"By the way, my benefactor, my sixth brother and I have also brought the wooden box and other things you hid in Mo County. After entering Yanbei City, if necessary, just go to Yunlai Inn to find us."
Xiaodouzi was about to get out of the carriage, but he seemed to remember his benefactor's belongings again. He quickly looked back and finished speaking. Before Gu Xiao could speak, he jumped out of the carriage, while the guards around him were still paying attention to the retreat.
, and got into the snow forest on the side.
At the beginning of spring, the snow started again, which seemed to be in response to the saying that auspicious snow heralds a good harvest. However, there was no good harvest atmosphere in Yanbei City. The sound of fighting and walking on the streets gradually made the people in the city feel a little panicked. Last time, it was like this
With the sound of fighting, the next day I heard that General Wan's mansion was confiscated. Now that I heard about it again, I really don't know what a big thing happened.
It was getting late, and a battalion of soldiers on the street walked hurriedly, with solemn faces, towards the city gate. The few pedestrians on the street saw them, and they all turned aside to avoid them. Only three people in an antique shop in the street and alley saw them.
These Yanbei soldiers looked at each other with joy in their eyes.
The three of them closed the door of the shop for a moment and watched the Yanbei soldiers disappearing away.
Talk loudly.
"Sir, I heard that Shan Bin, the commander of Yanbei, led his troops to bloodbath the Northern Territory General's Mansion just before Yuanri Festival. I think he was also acting on Emperor Qiyun's order. Now he is actually doing what you said.
By increasing troops at Yanbei City Gate, are they really going to betray Qi Yun..."
The person who spoke was dressed in snow. Who could it be if he wasn't Wang Heng, the young master of the Golden Knife Gate? The two people beside him were none other than Xu Mo, the sword guard elder, and the Jin envoy. Watching the Yanbei soldiers rushing towards the north gate, they couldn't help but
I wonder what method the Jin envoy used to make the dignified commander of the Yanbei Army switch sides.
The envoy of Jin smiled mysteriously and said: "Everyone has selfish motives... I am not worried about the lack of numbers but the inequality. Now that the prince knows my identity, the most important thing at the moment is not the accident in Yanbei City, but to try to find the solution first."
At that time, what is the fate of that picture?"
Wang Heng frowned slightly when he heard this. Although he had just verbally agreed to help, when it came time to help, he thought about Xiao Jiujiu again. His father and son had been sneaking into Qiyun for many years, and they saw that the defense plan and the liger were already there.
With some clues, this Jin envoy came. If he really succeeded, the father and son had to suffer for many years to make wedding clothes for others. With such thoughts, he spoke with embarrassment.
"My lord, what you said is true. However, I and Elder Xu have been investigating for many days, but we still haven't found any clues. That's why we gathered people in Yanbei City. With the current situation in Yanbei City, if we act arbitrarily, will we be able to alert the enemy?"
The envoy of Jin had been involved in the officialdom for many years and was a master of martial arts. How could Wang Heng's little thoughts escape his eyes? He sneered in his heart, but his words were full of sincerity: "What Mr. Wang said is absolutely true. I have a secret."
This method can relieve the worries in your heart."
"Oh? Your Majesty, please speak. Wang Heng is all ears." Wang Heng knew that the opponent's martial arts level was extremely high. He did not listen to his excuses and had no choice but to deal with him. He was still thinking about how to prevent the Jin envoy from taking the credit.
"Shan Bin is greedy for power. I promised him a lot of money to rebel against Qi and return to Jin. In Yanbei now, although Shan Bin has a high position of power, it is not enough to shake Yanbei City. Even if he raises his troops to rebel, he can only
The chaos of wild geese in the north is not enough for our Jin cavalry to break through the pass and go south."
