Huang Hanming said with a smile, "So I guess the reason why they did this is to leave Black Mountain City without us noticing!" ”

Hearing this, Li Baosheng frowned, "Huang Hanming, if you say so, doesn't that mean that Su Mazi is not Su Chuanxin?" ”

Huang Hanming nodded, "If Su Mazi is Su Chuanxin, then he shouldn't play so many tricks, after coming out of Sujiazhuang, he shouldn't go to Lijiazhuang, but go directly in the direction of Black Mountain City." ”

Li Baosheng waved his hand, "No, maybe they are worried that they will be discovered by us on the road south of the city?" ”

Huang Hanming shook his head, "How is this possible, as long as they walk in the woods, the chances of us wanting to find them are simply too small, or even none." ”

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.

"Li Baosheng, think about it, there are so many woods on both sides of the road, and there are only three of us, if the three of us go to search separately, even if we see them, I am afraid we will not be able to catch them.

But if we don't search separately, then the three of us can only search one side, and the other side will not be visible at all.

So, if we want to find them in the woods, it's basically impossible. ”

Li Baosheng turned his head to look at Huang Heming, and said with a smile, "Huang Haiming, why are we looking for them in the woods, it takes so much effort, and the grasp is not big, I think it is better to guard directly at the city gate, as long as they dare to enter the city, then they will definitely be seen by us, isn't it safer?" ”

Huang Hanming shook his head, "Li Baosheng, even if we are guarding the city gate, have you ever thought about this, they may go to the city from the south city gate, and maybe they will also enter the city through the west city gate."

As I said just now, the three of us can't be separated, and if we are separated, we can't catch them, even if we see them.

So we can only defend one gate, and if they set up a gate to enter the city, then how can we see it? ”

Li Baosheng frowned, "Huang Haiming, didn't you say that they would enter the city through the South City Gate?" ”

Huang Hanming sneered: "Li Baosheng, don't forget, what we guessed at first was that they were going in the direction of Lijiazhuang and were going to enter the city through the West City Gate.

If they do do it, think about it, can we stop them? ”

Hearing Huang Hanming's words, Li Baosheng was stunned for a moment, and his brows furrowed: "Huang Hanming, do you mean to say that I didn't see them at the West City Gate, because they had already entered the city from the South City Gate?" ”

Huang Hanming hurriedly waved his hand and said with a smile, "Li Baosheng, this is just speculation ꓹ Just like you just said, there is no evidence, just random speculation." ”

Li Baosheng nodded and said with a wry smile, "Although this is just your guess, but now that you think about it, it seems that there should be such a possibility." ”

Speaking of this, Li Baosheng's tone paused, and then he said slowly, "Huang Hanming, if it is like what you said, after they ran from the broken temple outside the south of the city, they ran along the woods on the side of the road towards Sujiazhuang.

At first I wondered why they came to the edge of the woods on your side instead of the other side of the village.

If you follow your explanation, this is all clear, because the woods on the side of the road are on the side of Lao Su's house, and the reason why Su Mazi and the others rushed here is not because they want to go to Lao Su's house, or to go to a place like Lijiazhuang, but because, as you just said, they want to return to the city from the South City Gate.

If that's the case, then everything should make sense, they just walked through the woods on the side of the road to the south of the city, and you accidentally saw it.

Of course, maybe you saw them and they didn't see you, and although your position is not very good, after all, it is night, and you are wearing dark clothes, and if they don't see you, it is very likely. ”

Huang Hanming frowned, "Li Baosheng, do you mean that the place they are going to is not Sujiazhuang, nor Lijiazhuang, nor the town we are coming to now, but they want to go back to Black Mountain City, isn't that so?" ”

Li Baosheng nodded, "Huang Hanming, it should be right, think about it, if they go like this, at least the route can be explained."

The woods on the side of the road are very long, and they can basically lead to the south gate, and if they keep walking along this forest, they will definitely reach the south gate. ”

Huang Hanming frowned, "But, if you explain it like this, who are those people you see when you sell baked cakes in Lijiazhuang?" ”

Li Baosheng waved his hand and said with a wry smile, "Maybe it's just a few passers-by, not the Su Mazi we are looking for." ”

Huang Hanming shook his head, "However, those people who buy baked cakes are really suspicious, didn't you think that they were Su Mazi and the others?" ”

Li Baosheng sighed, "Of course I've thought about it, but you have also seen that we have been walking here in the direction of Lijiazhuang in Yangzhou, and we have not seen any news of Su Mazi and others, so I think that maybe the people we see are really just ordinary people." ”

Huang Hanming waved his hand, "Li Baosheng, just because of the guess I said just now, do you think that these people we are looking for are not Su Mazi and them?" ”

Hearing Huang Hanming's question, Li Baosheng hesitated for a moment, and then slowly shook his head, "Huang Hanming, this is just one reason, the most important thing is that you have also seen that I have been guarding from the direction of the West City Gate, and you have been guarding the fork of the official road leading to Lijiazhuang, I believe that if they come to this side, even if they are not discovered by you, they will definitely not be able to escape my observation." ”

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.

"But, Huang Hanming, you also saw it, we didn't wait for anything, whether it was the fork in Lijiazhuang leading to the official road, or the road leading to the West City Gate from the official road, we didn't find Su Mazi and the others.

As you said, it's very likely that they didn't really come this way, but walked along the woods outside the South Gate, preparing to return to the city through the South Gate, maybe this was their real intention, right? ”

Hearing Li Baosheng's words, Huang Hanming frowned, "Li Baosheng, although I am guarding the fork in the road leading to the official road in Lijiazhuang, I don't dare to guarantee that I have seen all the places.

I was not far from the edge of the woods, and there was a large area of woods behind me, and it was impossible for me to see them if Su Mazi and them had passed through the depths of the woods.

Therefore, it is also possible that they went to the West Gate, and we cannot vent them. ”

Hearing Huang Hanming's words, Li Baosheng shook his head, "Huang Hanming, even if they pass through the depths of the woods, you can't see them, but there is only one road at the West City Gate, and they want to rush to the West City Gate to enter the city, how can I not see it?" ”

Huang Hanming frowned, "Maybe just like we just said, you think you are hiding in hiding, but in fact, they have already seen you, so you don't dare to enter the city by hiding in the woods, so naturally you can't see it!" ”

Hearing this, Li Baosheng frowned, "However, when I left the West City Gate, the city gate was actually about to close, and if they don't enter the city again, I'm afraid they won't be able to enter the city again that day." ”

Hearing this, Huang Hanming sighed, "Even if they know that the city gate is going to be closed, they know that you are guarding outside the city gate, even if they can't enter the city that day, it is impossible for them to risk being discovered by you to enter the city?" ”

Li Baosheng's face changed, "Huang Haiming, do you mean that when I left, they were still hiding in the woods?" ”

Huang Hanming smiled bitterly and waved his hand, "Li Baosheng, haven't we already said it, these are all speculations, and they can't be taken seriously." ”

Hearing this, Li Baosheng reacted and said with a wry smile, "Huang Hanming, although these are all guesses, but now that I think about it, it seems to be true." ”

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, let's guess again, if they really hide in the woods outside the West City Gate, after I leave, do you think they will enter the city?"

Hearing Li Baosheng's question, Huang Hanming shook his head, "I don't know either!" ”

Li Baosheng frowned, raised his hand and slapped Huang Hanming, "You guy, you have said that it is a guess, why don't you even dare to say anything?"

Hurry up and give an answer, or don't blame me for being rude to you! ”

Huang Hanming rubbed his shoulder that was hurt by Li Baosheng, "You are not a good person, you are so ruthless, it hurts so much." ”

Hearing this, Li Baosheng immediately laughed and waved his fist, "Huang Haiming, do you know that my fist is quite powerful, and there are few people who are my opponents?" ”

Huang Hanming waved his hand, "Count you awesome, it's always okay, right?" ”

Li Baosheng shook his head, "Definitely not, I have to say an answer?" ”

Hearing this, Huang Hanming smiled bitterly and nodded, "Li Baosheng, after you left the West City Gate at that time, in fact, they also had two choices, one was to see you leave and immediately enter the city through the West City Gate.

And the other choice should be to see that there are people in the yamen at the West City Gate, Su Mazi and they are timid, even if you leave, but they still dare not enter the city, maybe, because they saw you leave the West City Gate, this is also a possible thing. ”

"Leaving the West Gate?"

Li Baosheng frowned, and suddenly exclaimed, "Huang Hanming, do you mean that they are not going to enter the city through the West City Gate?" ”

Huang Hanming nodded, "I think so, if I were them, I would see that there are people from the Yamen guarding outside the West City Gate, and the people guarding are still the people who once chased after them."

In this state, no matter how bold Su Mazi is, he will definitely be afraid.

So I guess that maybe when you were guarding the West Gate, when they rushed to the woods outside the West Gate, and when they found you, they didn't even dare to stop, they immediately turned around and ran. ”

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.

"Li Baosheng, if they enter the city from other city gates, it may be a longer distance, but even if they are tired on their legs, it is better than being caught by you, right?"

After hearing Huang Hanming's words, Li Baosheng lowered his head and was silent for a long time, and after a long while, he raised his head to look at Huang Hanming and sighed.

"Huang Hanming, if you say this, they may really leave the West City Gate because they are afraid......

Speaking of this, Li Baosheng's tone paused, and then he said slowly, "After they left the West City Gate, maybe they returned to the outside of the South City and prepared to enter the city through the South City Gate?" ”

Huang Hanming nodded, "That's right, there is such a possibility, if they are ready to return to the city from the South City Gate, we really can't stop them." ”

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.

"Of course, in addition to returning to the city from the south gate, they may also choose the direction of the north gate.

They came from the direction of the south city gate, and if they were afraid, it was also very possible to go directly to the north city gate. ”

"North Gate?"

Li Baosheng thought for a while, and then nodded slowly, "That's right, if we go back to the direction of the South City Gate to block them as we said at the beginning, wouldn't they be caught in the net when they go back."

I think they're going to be worried about that too, so if they go to the North Gate, it's really a very good thing. ”

Huang Hanming waved his hand and sighed, "Li Baosheng, in fact, they will not only go to the North City Gate, maybe after they see us guarding the city gate, they will decide not to enter the city first and return to Lijiazhuang, or if Su Mazi is Su Chuanxin, they will also very likely return to Sujiazhuang directly to hide." ”

"Back to Sujiazhuang?"

Hearing this, Li Baosheng's brows furrowed, "If they really return to Sujiazhuang, if we want to find them again, I'm afraid it will be really difficult?" ”

Huang Hanming sighed, "Yes, think about it carefully, if they went to the West City Gate, and then happened to see you waiting at the West City Gate."
