Hearing Lao Zhangtou's words, Li Baosheng nodded, "Old man, after the four of them converged, did they keep walking forward with the carriage, or did they leave the convoy?" ”

Old Zhang Tou shook his head, "No, they didn't leave the convoy, but kept walking forward with the convoy, knowing where the villain couldn't see, they were still walking behind the convoy?" ”

Hearing this, Li Baosheng couldn't help frowning, "Old man, you mean that they are not separated, right?" ”

Lao Zhangtou nodded, "No!" ”

Li Baosheng turned his head to look at Huang Hanming, "What do you think?" ”

Huang Hanming smiled bitterly and shook his head, "It seems that our investigation is in the wrong direction, and these people should not be the people we are looking for." ”

Shopkeeper Zhou also smiled and nodded, "Yes, these people just want to go to the caravan in the distance, and I don't think it's like the people you are looking for." ”

Li Baosheng hesitated for a moment, then slowly shook his head, "Shopkeeper Zhou, but I think they are very suspicious, do you think what they are doing is not suspicious?" ”

Shopkeeper Zhou shook his head, "Two poor masters, although what they did looks suspicious, but if you think about it, it seems to be normal."

So I don't think these people are necessarily the people you're looking for. ”

Huang Hanming suddenly said, "Old man, think about it again, after the four of them converged, didn't you hear a word of what they said?" ”

Lao Zhangtou nodded, and said with a wry smile, "Two poor masters, yes, although it was not far away at that time, there was the sound of carriages pressing on the road, and others shouting loudly, and the voices of these people were deliberately low, so they couldn't hear it." ”

Huang Hanming frowned, "Didn't you hear a word?" ”

Lao Zhangtou shook his head, "No, I didn't hear anything, I just saw a few of them converge, and Xiao Lao'er didn't know anything else." ”

Hearing Lao Zhangtou's answer, Huang Hanming hesitated for a moment, and then asked slowly, "Old man, since you can't hear their voices, what kind of performance did they behave when they just converged?" ”

Speaking of this, Huang Hanming's tone paused, but then, he didn't wait for Lao Zhangtou to answer his words, and continued to speak on his own.

"For example, they seem very close, or, just some new people, old people, think about it, what kind of people do they look like?"

Hearing Huang Hanming's question, Lao Zhangtou lowered his head and thought about it, and then said slowly, "When that person caught up from behind, the little man had actually been paying attention to him, so he could see it clearly.

The man chased after him from behind, and then, before he could get closer, the man in front of him had already met him.

Looking at the performance of both of them, the villain thinks that they should have known each other for a long time, and the relationship should be very good. ”

Hearing Lao Zhangtou's answer, Li Baosheng was immediately overjoyed, and hurriedly asked, "Old man, after these four people meet, will they catch up with the carriage as soon as possible, or stay away from the carriage?" ”

Hearing this question, Lao Zhangtou thought about it carefully, and then said slowly, "Two poor masters, if you don't say it, the villain really didn't pay attention, after the two of them met, it seemed that they deliberately moved away from the carriage in front." ”

Speaking of this, Lao Zhangtou's tone paused, and then he said slowly, "The two poor masters, their performance is like what they say can't be heard by the people in front. ”

Hearing Lao Zhangtou's answer, Li Baosheng sighed and said slowly, "Of course, what they said is a secret, how can it be known to the people in front of them." ”

Huang Hanming looked at Lao Zhangtou and asked slowly, "Old man, are you sure that they didn't separate from the convoy until you couldn't see them?" ”

Old Zhang nodded, "Of course, until you can't see them, these people are still talking behind the carriage." ”

Li Baosheng frowned, "Old man, how far away did you last see them from you?" ”

Hearing Li Baosheng's question, Lao Zhangtou waved his hand and said with a smile, "The two poor masters, in fact, it is not very far, you may not have been to the west of the town." ”

Speaking of this, Lao Zhangtou's tone paused, but then, he didn't wait for Li Baosheng to answer his words, so he continued to speak to himself.

"Two poor masters, from here out of the west of the town, in fact, not far away, there is a forest next to it, and this road turns to the edge of the woods, standing there is no way to see me."

Hearing Lao Zhangtou's answer, Li Baosheng frowned, "Old man, if you say so, the woods shouldn't be far away, right?" ”

Old Zhang Tou nodded, "Of course it's not far away, the woods are just west of the town." ”

"That's true!"

As soon as Lao Zhangtou's words fell, Huang Hanming suddenly spoke, "Old man, are you talking about the woods you are talking about, standing on the road outside, you can see the woods outside the town?" ”

Lao Zhangtou nodded, "Poor master, you are right, it is the forest outside the town, if it is daytime, standing on the street outside, you can indeed see that wood." ”

Hearing Lao Zhangtou's answer, Huang Hanming frowned, "Old man, if you are talking about that forest, doesn't that mean that the bend you said is very close to us?" ”

Lao Zhangtou nodded, and said with a smile, "Of course it's close, if it's far away, it's dark in the morning, and before they turn into the woods, they can't be seen anymore." ”

Hearing the conversation between the two, Li Baosheng turned his head to look at Huang Hanming and asked in a low voice, "Huang Haiming, have you seen that wood?" ”

Huang Hanming nodded, "Of course I saw it, you may not have paid attention, but if you pay attention, you can see it." ”

Li Baosheng nodded, "How far is that forest from the edge of the town?" ”

Hearing Li Baosheng's question, Huang Hanming frowned, and said with a wry smile, "Li Baosheng, I also took a casual look at it at that time, and I really didn't dare to say how far the woods were from the outside of the town.

Speaking of this, Huang Hanming's tone paused, but then, he didn't wait for Li Baosheng to answer his words, so he continued to speak to himself.

"Still, I think it's about 200 steps!"

"Two hundred steps?"

Li Baosheng frowned, "That's really close!" ”

Huang Hanming nodded, "It seems that this forest is very problematic, they didn't separate at the beginning, maybe they just wanted to wait until they went to the woods, and they were leaving from the woods." ”

Li Baosheng nodded, "Huang Hanming, what you said is indeed possible, if they are separated as soon as they leave the town, this is too attention-grabbing."

But if they went to the woods and a few of them were going to the woods, others didn't pay much attention to it, and even if they saw it, they thought they were just going for convenience. ”

Huang Hanming nodded and said with a wry smile, "Maybe they already knew that there was a forest outside the town, so they planned all this." ”

Li Baosheng waved his hand, "Huang Hanming, in fact, there is nothing to plan, as long as they leave from the woods, there should be nothing to do in this matter." ”

Huang Hanming turned his head to look at Lao Zhangtou, and asked with a smile, "Old man, can't you see the distance they went to the woods at all?" ”

Old Zhang Tou shook his head, "I can't see it, the villain can only see the movement outside the woods, as long as they turn the corner in front, they can only hear the sound, and they can't see their shadows." ”

Huang Hanming nodded and asked with a smile, "Old man, then think about it, apart from you, is there anyone else who is likely to see them in the woods?" ”

Hearing Huang Hanming's question, Lao Zhangtou shook his head with a wry smile, "Two poor masters, this seems unlikely, it was only two o'clock at that time, and everyone was sleeping at home during that time, even if there were people who got up, I am afraid they were also cooking, how could anyone go to the woods?" ”

Li Baosheng sighed, "That means that as long as they go into the woods, it's impossible for us to know what they're doing, right?" ”

Lao Zhangtou nodded, "Two poor masters, if it's summer and everyone gets up early, maybe someone will go to the field and see their caravans, but now in this season, I'm afraid no one can see it." ”

……

Li Baosheng and Huang Hanming left the inn and walked towards the west of the town.

Sure enough, as Lao Zhangtou said, as soon as the two walked out of the town, they saw the courtyard wall of Zhang's house that Lao Zhangtou said.

As Lao Zhangtou described, this courtyard wall is not at right angles to the official road outside the town, but oblique, if someone comes out of the town, as long as they don't look back, they really can't see Lao Zhangtou behind the courtyard wall.

The two of them took a closer look behind the courtyard wall, and sure enough, they found some footprints, and they knew in their hearts that these footprints should be Lao Zhangtou's.

Leaving the courtyard wall and standing on the official road again, Li Baosheng pointed to the woods in front, "Huang Hanming, it seems that the woods that Lao Zhangtou said should be the woods in front." ”

Huang Hanming turned his head to look at the woods in front of him and sighed, "Li Baosheng, I really hope to find clues in the woods in front of me, and then follow the clues to catch these hateful guys." ”

Li Baosheng smiled and waved his hand, "Huang Hanming, you think beautifully, if it was that simple, we would have caught him yesterday." ”

Hearing Li Baosheng mention yesterday, Huang Hanming remembered yesterday's cowardly appearance again, and couldn't help but sigh and clenched his fists.

"If I see them again, I will never let them go, I must let them taste my power."

Li Baosheng patted Huang Hanming on the shoulder and said with a smile, "Huang Hanming, you are right, to deal with these hateful guys, you must use thunderous means." ”

Speaking of this, Li Baosheng suddenly smiled, "Huang Hanming, do you know that when facing the enemy, the more afraid you are, the more powerful the enemy will be." ”

Speaking of this, Li Baosheng's tone paused, but then, he didn't wait for Huang Hanming to answer his words, so he continued to speak to himself.

"Huang Hanming, when I was young, I remember one time, a couple of kids older than me bullied me."

Li Baosheng turned his head to look at Huang Hanming, and said with a wry smile, "Huang Hanming, I was really scared at that time, really, I didn't have any thoughts of resisting at that time, I just wanted to run home and hide, and then I ran, but the next day, they still bullied me."

Huang Hanming, when I saw that they were coming to me again, I was even more scared, and I almost didn't dare to see them in person. ”

Hearing this, Huang Hanming shook his fist hard, "Li Baosheng, to deal with this kind of bad guy, you must use your fists to let them know how powerful you are, otherwise, they will bully you."

These hateful things, they just bully the cowardly, and if you are bold, they will not dare to bully. ”

Hearing Huang Hanming's words, Li Baosheng nodded, "Huang Hanming, you are right, finally one day, I can't bear it anymore, so I will start with them." ”

Huang Hanming asked with a smile, "Li Baosheng, you are enlightened, tell me quickly, how did you do it?" ”

Hearing Huang Hanming's question, Li Baosheng grinned, "Huang Hanming, I know where they usually find trouble for me, so I hid a wooden stick there in advance."

On that day, there were only two of them, one of them came to grab my clothes, and the other came to hit me in the head.

Huang Haiming, you don't know how nervous I was at that time, I saw them coming, turned around and ran.

They thought I was trying to run away like I had done before, so they reprimanded me loudly from behind and pretended to chase me from behind.

I ran to the place where the stick was hidden, and jerked it out and stood it in front of me.

Huang Hanming, I still remember very clearly, those two guys saw the wooden stick in my hand, their faces were full of shock, as if they didn't expect me to use the wooden stick against them. ”

Huang Hanming gritted his teeth, "To deal with this kind of bad guys, you can only use wooden sticks and fists, and they are willing to be obedient." ”

Li Baosheng nodded and said with a smile.

"Huang Hanming, you are right, it is true that only fists and wooden sticks can make them obedient."

Huang Hanming turned his head to look at Li Baosheng, and asked with a smile, "Li Baosheng, tell me quickly, what happened after you took out the wooden stick?" ”

Hearing Huang Hanming's question, Li Baosheng sneered, "What else can happen, I took out the hidden wooden stick at that time, you don't know, when the wooden stick is in my hand, my heart seems to be very steady, I originally felt that the two people opposite were terrible, but after having this wooden stick, my courage suddenly became a lot bigger."

I remember very well that when I saw them rushing towards me, I immediately picked up a stick and struck at them.

They didn't expect me to do it, and naturally they didn't have anything in their hands, so they suffered a big loss, and I repaired them with a wooden stick. ”

Huang Hanming asked with a smile, "Li Baosheng, you repaired them this time, are they honest?" ”

Li Baosheng shook his head and said with a wry smile, "Huang Hanming, how can it be so simple, don't forget, there were only two people who came at that time, and by surprise, these two people were beaten by me, how could they suffer this loss?" ”

Hearing this, Huang Hanming turned his head to look at Li Baosheng, and asked with a smile, "Li Baosheng, then tell me, are they coming to you again for trouble?" ”

Li Baosheng nodded, "Of course, there are more than a dozen of them, but two of them were beaten by me, how could they be convinced?" ”

"A dozen people?"

Huang Hanming was taken aback, "Li Baosheng, do they have so many people?" ”

Li Baosheng nodded, and said with a wry smile, "There are only a lot of people!" ”
