Chapter 58 Chain Reaction
The Dongchang men, who did not know that the old nest had been captured, had approached Zhangping County after several days of rapid travel. The disciples of the Changbai Sword Sect led by Zhang Sijin had already arrived in Zhangping County.
They were rushing to the road very fast, and they were not afraid of being discovered by the spies under Mu Yixing. Because their identities were still in the world at this time, there was no need to worry at all.
As for Peng Zhenlei and Fang Xun, they were still quietly rushing to the road, just like the Dongchang men.
Because they asked Gu Daliang, a disguise expert, before coming, they were not too worried that they would be exposed, but just habitually hiding.
Speaking of which, the only thing that made Peng Zhenlei feel a little unsatisfied was that he could not recall Ye Bi and the Tie brother and sister before departure, so that there were no masters around him who could cooperate tacitly with him.
But he also knew in his heart that if it weren't for the separate investigation, he wouldn't have found Mu Yixing's traces.
There are gains and losses.
However, when Peng Zhenlei, Dongchang and others who thought they were secret enough entered Zhangping County, their whereabouts were still exposed.
Just as Bai Shier's intuition thought, this incident was a situation of luring the tiger away from the mountain from beginning to end.
All of this starts with Ye Bi being discovered by Mu Yixing's spies before.
When the subordinates were about to concentrate their efforts to kill Ye Bi first and boost morale, Mu Yixing, who was quarreled by them, suddenly had a plan in his mind.
So Peng Zhenlei "discovered" the spies' tracking in Zhangping County, and successfully tracked these spies and finally found Mu Yixing's "lain" step by step.
In fact, it is not to say that it is a complete deception. At that time, Mu Yixing was indeed in that somewhat dilapidated camp. Of course, it was to prevent Peng Zhenlei from not giving up without seeing the real person. However, I didn't expect that Peng Zhenlei would believe it so easily, which saved the last part of Mu Yixing's appearance.
After confirming that Peng Zhenlei left, except for leaving a few spies waiting here for Peng Zhenlei to bring a large number of men to arrive, the others quickly returned to their original strongholds with Mu Yixing and began to prepare. They waited for the spies to send back Peng Zhenlei to Zhangping County and took action immediately after the news came.
However, Mu Yixing obviously did not expect that Gu Daliang, the best disguise in the world, was also in Quanzhou Prefecture City at this time, and he did not expect that Gu Daliang would help Peng Zhenlei disguise. Therefore, before rushing to Zhangping County, Peng Zhenlei's whereabouts were not exposed.
But after entering Zhangping County, Peng Zhenlei was secretly secretly and revealed his identity when he went to Zhangping County to seek assistance.
When the yamen runners who had been bribed reported the news to the spies, they were still a little unbelievable, subconsciously meaning that the other party was just trying to cheat money. However, after repeatedly confirming that Peng Zhenlei came with the six-door captain token, they finally realized that this was true.
It is not too late to repair the sheep.
Although it was one or two days later than the original plan, the pigeons they released were soon in Mu Yixing's hands.
Immediately afterwards, with Mu Yixing's order, all the subordinates who had already assembled, as well as the "idle" killers like Wen Tailai, who had been summoned during this period, broke into pieces and rushed towards Quanzhou Prefecture City like the East Factory's men.
However, although they broke the whole thing into pieces, their speed of traveling did not slow down at all.
Mu Yixing knew very well that this adventure was to fight a time difference. He had to rush outside Quanzhou Prefecture before Peng Zhenlei discovered the truth and reality of the camp in the mountain. Before Peng Zhenlei sent a quick horse to deliver a letter to warn, he came to Santai Mountain and took back the treasure that originally belonged to him.
Of course, he never thought of escaping with so much treasure, as it would be a bit stupid.
But Santai Mountain is so big, it is enough that he just chooses a secret place to bury the treasures.
Of course, in order to make the court hawks who chased after receiving the news believe that he had taken away the treasure, he still had to take out tens of thousands of taels of silver from it and distribute it to the idle killers who were summoned by him, and design them to walk at the end and be caught.
...
"Mu Yixing? Snatch treasure?"
When Mu Yixing had completely thought about his plan after he successfully robbed, what he didn't know was that the main opponent he was facing, Zheng Yixiang, who was guarding Caibao, had already known his plan in advance.
Those who reminded Zheng Yixiang naturally guessed that Bai Shier, who was the plan to lure his tigers away from the mountain.
However, when he first heard Bai Shier talk about it, Zheng Yixiang obviously didn't believe it very much.
In his opinion, under the intimidation of the Jinyiwei's reputation, how could Mu Yixing, who had already fled in a hurry, dared to take the risk of returning?
And although he didn't say it, he looked down on Bai Shier in his heart.
In his mind, Bai Shier was just a lucky "little white-faced person". He leaned on Princess Xianyou's thigh and was nothing left.
So he disdained the reminder of such a lucky villain in his heart.
"I know Zheng Baihu thinks I'm exaggerating,"
The disdain on Zheng Yixiang's face was not covered at all, and Bai Shier could naturally see through what he was thinking at a glance. Fortunately, the moment he decided to accept Zhu Jinxuan, he was already prepared for the many misfortunes that came from it.
"But as the saying goes, 'I'm not afraid of ten thousand, just be afraid of what if.' It's not a bad thing to pay more attention these days. Even if my guess is wrong in the end, you have only worked hard for a few days. But if my guess is correct and you don't take precautions in advance, what consequences will be? I think Zheng Baihu should know better in his heart than me."
Although he had already prepared, Bai Shier was not Zheng Yixiang's father, so he naturally could not persuade him with great sincerity. His choice was more direct and effective, that was just two words.
threaten.
"snort."
Faced with Bai Shier's equally unhidden threat, although Zheng Yixiang was angry, she could only respond with an angry hum and did not say anything to fight back against Bai Shier.
Because Bai Shier's threat did hit his weakness, this batch of treasures should not be lost.
And he knew in his heart that what Bai Shier said was accurate was that news would be heard from Peng Zhenlei soon. If Mu Yixing really wanted to regain this batch of treasures, he would have to do it in these few days.
...
"Well!"
Just as Zheng Yixiang suppressed his anger and wanted to see him off, a Jinyiwei captain riding a fast horse came not far away, but he rushed like the wind.
"A bloody case occurred in the city. The secret prison of Dongchang was attacked last night. All five left-behind Dongchang fans were killed. If they were to commit Fang Ritu's whereabouts were unknown, they should have been rescued by the attacker."
After getting off the horse, he immediately knelt on one knee and reported to Zheng Yixiang.
"What?"
Knowing that the East Factory was only left with five people in the city, and the others were already following Peng Zhenlei to the south, Zheng Yixiang was naturally extremely shocked when he heard the news, especially after hearing the news that Fang Ritu was rescued, he exclaimed directly.
"It seems that in addition to Mu Yixing's group of evil wolves, there is also a poisonous snake hidden in the city."
Bai Shier was also very shocked by the news, but he was not as ruthless as Zheng Yixiang.
After all, he had guessed that what he had done this time was the plan of luring the tiger away from the mountain set by Mu Yixing. At this time, a poisonous snake that was waiting for an opportunity to attack appeared unexpectedly, it did not shock him.
However, he was still a little unhappy about Fang Ritu being rescued.
That was the star master of Tianyan Sect, who had spent a lot of effort to capture alive. He was the best object to force the Tianyan Sect to find out the secrets. However, his identity was special and he could not be exposed at that time, so he handed it over to the constables in the government office to take it away. But now the Dongchang was rescued without any information being interrogated, and he was naturally dissatisfied.
"You immediately rushed back to the city, went to the prison of the government office, and watched the actor who had been caught by me before."
However, soon he suppressed his dissatisfaction and thought of something more important. Then he ordered the captain who was kneeling on one knee without caring about Zheng Yixiang, whose face had turned dark beside him.
Fortunately, the captain on the ground was still smart and still knelt on the ground and did not obey orders. Otherwise, I was afraid that Zheng Yixiang would be able to attack him to death directly.
"It's been so late, I'm still thinking about the little power in your hands!"
Looking at the "indifferent" captain and Zheng Yixiang with a slightly slower expression, Bai Shier finally showed anger on his face.
"Cough. You immediately rushed back to the city, went to the prison of the government office, and watched the actor who had been caught by the white 'little flag' before."
Faced with Bai Shier's angry questioning, Zheng Yixiang just coughed lightly, and then followed Bai Shier's previous orders and ordered again. However, when he said the word "little flag", he glanced at Bai Shier beside him with a little pride and joy, and deliberately added accent.
"yes!"
The lieutenant, who knew that it was not suitable for a long time, had long been reluctant to continue to be caught between two Shangguans who could not afford to offend him. After hearing Zheng Yixiang's order, he immediately stood up like an amnesty, turned around, got on his horse, and rode his horse in one go, without any dragging, and his movements were extremely fast and beautiful.
"Hmph, I have warned you about Mu Yixing's possible actions, and I hope you can do it yourself."
Left a angrily hum and a warning, Bai Shier seemed to be unwilling to continue seeing the smugness on Zheng Yixiang's face, and turned around and left angrily.
"Phoa, what."
Looking at Bai Shier's leaving figure, Zheng Yixiang spat with disdain and cursed in a low voice.
However, when he turned his head, the disdain on his face turned into solemnity.
Although he looked down on Bai Shier and was very disdainful of Bai Shier, he did not dare to be careless about what Bai Shier said before.
He knew in his heart that whether he could make merits and receive rewards depends on the pile of treasures in front of him. If he was really unfortunately criticized by the crow, and he was taken back by Mu Yixing because of his neglect of defense, then his best result would be to die on the spot.
This will at least allow the old commander Chen Yanqing to be exempted from his responsibility for his years of friendship, so that his son can take over his position as a hundred households.
On the contrary, if he is still alive, he is afraid that demotion will be the lightest punishment.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but scold Bai Shier in his heart.
Since he had already guessed this plan to lure the tiger away from the mountain designed by Mu Yixing, he would tell Peng Zhenlei early to stop him from taking his people away, and he had to blindly take advantage of the plan.
Zheng Yixiang is not a fool, so after thinking for a moment, he thought about it and thought about the reason why Bai Shier did this.
Although I knew in my heart that there was a great opportunity to seize Mu Yixing, an important prisoner, and get the clues back, it was completely worth a try, but if we consider it from his own interests, the result would obviously be different.
But now he can only complain in his heart. Mu has been ready, and Peng Zhenlei has been away for several days. No matter how much he thinks at this time, he will not help at all. All he can do is to gather all the people he can gather, wait for Mu Yixing to come into contact, and at the same time put his hope on Bai Shier, hoping that he can really attack the other party from behind after Mu Yixing hits into contact, and capture Mu Yixing in one fell swoop.
...
The days of torture since he was arrested have caused great damage to Fang Ritu's body, so that when he left, he could only lie on Kang Jinlong's back.
Therefore, when the ten people in the martial arts world showed their greed, he could not do anything except worry.
However, just when he was anxious and even worried that he would die at the hands of these greedy people today, he was already a little desperate, but he did not expect that Kang Jinlong, who had always been a flatterer who was just a greedy person who was greedy for life and death, showed his cruel and sinister side.
Kang Jinlong first took the opportunity to kill a guy with the lowest martial arts skills and no companions, shocking the remaining nine people. Then he took advantage of the shock and vigilance that the nine people were still united to fight back, and threw out the silver that was allocated to the murdered person, and in one sentence, he sounded ill-hearted, but it still had the effect of being effective, which once again aroused the greed in the hearts of the nine people.
After doing this, in order to eliminate the last warning in the nine people's hearts, he took out the last few silver ingots in his arms and threw them into the middle of the nine people again. Then he carried the Fang Ritu who had been thrown on the ground by him, facing the nine people and slowly retreated back.
Just as the nine people before could feel the evil intentions hidden in Kang Jinlong's bewitching words, but they did not expose them, but were alert to the distance from other people or groups.
This time, even when Kang Jinlong left with Fang Ritu on his back, the nine people who could guess that Kang Jinlong would never really leave, still started killing and robbing after Kang Jinlong's figure disappeared.
