However, Yujuluo could think of those cliques, Turks, Khitans, and even today, they would like to die in battle.
"Send someone to respond immediately to find Wei Yunqi's whereabouts" Zhuo Junhou smiled bitterly: "Wei Yunqi is a loyal minister, dare to speak out, but it's a pity..."
"This place is more than a month away from the Eastern Capital, and it is too late. Fortunately, Bairen and Laosheng are in the Eastern Capital. They should have enough time to go!" Yu Juluo sighed slightly.
"What should I do?" Song Laosheng looked at Zhang Bairen. He was a rough man. Although his brain was good, he did not necessarily have Zhang Bairen's inspiration and knowledge.
Zhang Bairen began to search in his rucksack. After a while, he found a map and opened it slowly. After thinking for a while, he said, "Now there are two choices."
"The two choices?" Song Laosheng said.
"One is to wait and see. Let's find a place that must be passed by, set up an ambush in secret, and wait for passing pedestrians to show their clues." Zhang Bairen drew his finger across the map: "And this road is most likely the only way for those murderers. The rest Several roads were searched by soldiers of the Sui Dynasty. It may not be so easy to hide a living person in the past. Wei Yunqi is no ordinary person. The sudden disappearance of the imperial minister Yang Guang is bound to be furious. How dare these pass soldiers indulge?"
"This is a good way, what about the second way?" Song Laosheng said.
"The second way is to return to the place where Wei Yunqi was attacked, and then track down from the beginning, looking for clues. I am afraid that when Wei Yunqi finds it, the day lily will be cold." Zhang Bairen shook his head repeatedly.
"And here is the route that the attackers are most likely to pass." Zhang Bairen smiled bitterly: "This place extends in all directions, it's really hard to find."
"You and I act separately, if you find a clue, immediately reunite!" Zhang Bairen looked at Song Laosheng: "You and I meet here every noon."
Speaking of this, Zhang Bairen shook his head. The era without phones is really fucking.
Watching Song Laosheng walk away, Zhang Bairen frowned in thought, his fingers drawn on the ground, Liujia's strange gates were running, and he counted the missing people.
Looking at the hexagrams on the ground, Zhang Bairen slowly stood up and wiped the hexagrams on the ground with one foot.
"Although I am not very proficient in the way of divination, there is always a big chance." Zhang Bairen watched Song Laosheng drive the car away, and looked at the mountain road with a long sword in his arms, and walked towards the distant mountains.
Zhang Bairen can be quite sure that he and Song Laosheng are ahead of Wei Yunqi. The two sides are about two to three days away. He waits here for five days. If he does not find a trace of Wei Yun's rise, Zhang Bairen can only rush forward. He rushed to the border and judged Wei Yunqi's trace again.
Looking at a bluestone on the side of the road for people to rest, Zhang Bairen sat on the bluestone unhurriedly, squinted and meditated, gestating a sword fetus.
Time passed, Zhang Bairen just lay on the bluestone, lazily basking in the sun.
The sun in August is very harsh, but Zhang Bairen is not worried at all. His skin is too white, and the tan is a little more masculine.
There were countless business trips in the past in August, and they were all caravans, ranging from thousands to dozens.
Zhang Bairen looked at the caravan with pure and innocent eyes. From time to time, the caravan boss saw Zhang Bairen’s "pitiful" eyes and thought it was a begging child, leaving some food and copper.
Looking at the sparse copper coins on the bluestone, Zhang Bairen felt a little painful.
third day
There was a loud noise coming from far away. It was another big caravan, and it was still a very big caravan, with a total of three to five hundred people.
Everyone looked at Zhang Bairen on the bluestone, showing their curiosity. Zhang Bairen scanned the entire caravan with a pair of eyes. There were dozens of guards, and he didn't know if there were any strong bones.
"Stop!" Zhang Bairen suddenly spoke, and everyone on the way was taken aback. After seeing Zhang Bairen, he shook his head and continued on his way.
"I said stop!" Zhang Bairen took out the long sword under his robe, and supported him unhurriedly.
What is the long sword?
The long sword in ancient times is like the machine gun of the twenty-first century.
Although there are some people who rob them, but few dare to really show it.
Looking at the simple and simple long sword in Zhang Bairen's hand, the passing businessmen were suddenly shocked and stopped subconsciously.
"Where is your boss?" Zhang Bairen said, leaning on the blue stone, without urgency.
"Whose little baby actually swaggered across the market with a long sword, if he was caught by the court, he would lose his head" A guard teased Zhang Bairen.
In the crowd, a few men looked at Zhang Bairen, their pupils shrank instantly, and drilled into the caravan without a trace.
"The Da Sui Military Secret Mansion worked, and you obeyed the dispatch at a constant speed. If you dare to violate it, don't blame me for being merciless." A token appeared in Zhang Bairen's hand.
Looking at the dark token, and then at Zhang Bairen holding a long sword, the smiles on everyone's faces finally disappeared, and the atmosphere was dull. Several guards hurriedly shut up.
"Master, below is the big treasurer of this caravan, I don't know what the army master wants to check?" A middle-aged man leaned forward and stuffed a lot of silver in his hand.
Regarding the silver in front of him, Zhang Bairen didn't even look at it, but just looked at the caravan in front of him: "Who is in your caravan?"
"Returning Sir, there are Turkic businessmen, Weishi businessmen, and Khitan businessmen. We are going to leave the customs." The shopkeeper looked at Zhang Bairen's appearance and took back the money with an embarrassing smile.
"Go and take the Khitan, Turkic, and Wei people aside for me," Zhang Bairen said unhurriedly.
Listening to Zhang Bairen's words, the shopkeeper smiled bitterly, and once again presented a silver ticket, cursing in his heart: "This kid is young and has a big appetite."
"One hundred taels?" Zhang Bairen lowered his head and looked at the bank note.
Silver bills are not silver bills. Anyone who knows a little about history knows that Jiaozi only began to be available in the Northern Song Dynasty.
The banknotes in the Sui and Tang dynasties were not official banknotes, but were passed down by the nobles. The tokens made of deerskin were usually passed on among the nobles.
Looking at the banknote, Zhang Bairen put it away, and said without changing his face: "If you and I tell you, please do it quickly, so that you won't be involved later."
"My lord, you...this..." The shopkeeper was dumbfounded. You took all the money, but didn't provide accommodation. What kind of truth is this? There is no such thing as playing.
Looking at Zhang Bairen, the shopkeeper had no choice but to go down and give orders for a while. After seeing the caravan complaining for a while, dozens of foreigners came out.
Zhang Bairen looked at the goods of Turks, Wei Shi, and Khitan, and then said after a while: "The Khitan people stay behind, and Wei Shi and Turks return."
The two caravans breathed a sigh of relief and quickly returned to the brigade.
Looking at the seven or eight carts of Khitan people, Zhang Bairen took the long sword on the ground unhurriedly and walked over slowly.
Seeing Zhang Bairen coming, the atmosphere of the Khitan people instantly changed, and they couldn't help touching their waist with their palms, but they were stunned, forgetting that the knife was hidden in the goods.
Bandits are rampant these years~EbookFREE.me~ That caravan doesn't have knives.
"You better stay still, you have to believe that your sword is faster than your sword." Zhang Bairen's words are immature and innocent, but the words they say are creepy.
At this time, the caravan also obviously found that the atmosphere was not right, and everyone was in turmoil.
Zhang Bairen watched the crowd slowly approaching the carriage, ignored him, but entered the Khitan team with a long sword.
"Three waves of Qidan people have passed through these days, and you are the fourth wave," Zhang Bairen said casually.
"What do you want to say?" The leader of the Khitan caravan took out a tray, and placed tens of taels of silver in the tray: "These are small ones to honor the adults."
"Oh! An adult from the imperial court was robbed a few days ago, how many have seen it?" Zhang Bairen said unhurriedly.
"We are all good people. We have never seen any adults, let alone do things like housebreakers. Adults must not wrong the good people. These silvers are filial to the adults. Please let them go and let me go." The Khitan merchant leader His face humbled.
"Woo~Woo~Woo~" There were bursts of depressive whimpers in the cargo, as if thunder on the ground, and the knives flashed in an instant. Dozens of Khitan merchants drew their long knives from the cargo and slashed towards Zhang Bairen. Come.
"I thought that you were young and ignorant, and dozens of taels of silver would dismiss you, lest you lose your life. Who knows that there is a way to heaven and you don't leave, and there is no way to hell. If you cast yourself in, then you can't blame me." ferocious.
Ps: The college entrance examination has passed, and the years have passed. The feeling of the college entrance examination is getting more and more blurred, and it is farther and farther away from me. I still have lingering fears when I think of the college entrance examination. After three years of hard work, I hope that my friends will get good results in the exam, and I hope that all book friends will be named in the gold list. Work hard! Three years of hard work only for today!
