Lu Dashi continued, "They are waiting for the rumors to pass in Nanjun City, in fact, there is also a great danger, after all, outsiders have no identity in Nanjun City, and they will definitely be investigated, which is very unfavorable to them." ”

After listening to Lu Dashi's analysis, Guo Yi frowned and thought for a moment before he said slowly, "Starting from Nanjun City, there is still a long distance to the territory of the Shenwei Army, and it is not close to the Cao Gang station on the Huaishui River.

If they stay in Nanjun Town, they will be easily discovered. ”

Speaking of this, Guo Yi's tone paused, and he pondered for a moment again before continuing, "Actually, when they went to the Cao Gang, and then turned around to the territory of the Shenwei Army, they couldn't make much of a detour, on the contrary, they were a little bit of a way.

If this looks like this, will they go straight out of the city and go straight to the place where the Cao Gang is? ”

Lu Dashi smiled bitterly and shook his head, "Now we don't know what happened to Nanjun City, for example, did they rescue Ge Feiying and Zhang Nanhao, if they had already left, then, when did they save them, what kind of arrangements did Nanjun City make, and more importantly, how did Nanjun City's defense be?"

We are not clear about these key issues, and even if we make a reluctant judgment, it will not be very accurate.

Only by knowing the details of what happened can we figure out how to make their next move. ”

Guo Yi was about to speak, when there was a sudden chaos in front of the team, and then several soldiers walked quickly in front of Guo Yi.

"My lord, Nanjun City is urgent!"

Hearing the soldier's words, a cold sweat suddenly broke out on Guo Yi's forehead, and he secretly screamed in his heart, Lu Dashi's guess, I'm afraid it really happened.

Guo Yi calmed down and asked quickly, "What's the news in Nanjun City, hurry up?" ”

The soldier who rushed to deliver the letter hurriedly handed over a letter, "My lord, the details are on the letter!" ”

Guo Yi took the letter handed over, hurriedly opened it, and looked at it carefully.

Before reading the content of the letter, Guo Yi's face had become ugly, and after reading the letter, he immediately shouted loudly to his side.

"Send the order down immediately, speed up the march immediately, and be sure to rush back to Nanjun City as soon as possible!"

Hearing Guo Yi's order, Lu Dashi also sighed secretly in his heart.

It seems that what I was worried about has really happened.

Thinking of the consequences of Ge Feiying and Zhang Nanhao being rescued, Lu Dashi was also nervous in his heart.

With Guo Yi's order, the speed of the march suddenly accelerated, and the group hurried towards the direction of Nanjun City.

More than half an hour later, the shadow of the tall city wall of Nanjun City had already appeared in Lu Dashi's sight.

At the gate of the city, more than a dozen torches were lit to illuminate the city gate.

When the soldiers defending the city saw someone coming, they were about to come forward to ask questions, but they all approached, saw the person who was coming, and hurried forward to salute.

"My subordinates have seen Lord Guo."

Guo Yi waved his hand casually, and immediately galloped towards the city.

As soon as he walked in the door, Guo Yi suddenly reined in his horse, turned his head to look at the soldiers at the door, and shouted.

"All the soldiers are on standby outside the city, and the people in the yamen hurry back and take their places and wait for orders."

After saying the order, Guo Yi turned his head and glanced at Lu Dashi, and nodded, "Lu Dashi, you and I are here." ”

After giving orders to his subordinates, Guo Yi hit his horse and ran towards the city.

After Lu Dashi heard Guo Yi's order, he arched his hand to Li Zhutou beside him, "Li Zhutou, I'll go and take a look, say goodbye!" ”

Li Zhutou nodded, "You also have to be careful, in case those gangsters are still ...... in the city." ”

Lu Dashi nodded, and immediately hit his horse and chased after Guo Yi's back.

……

Thorn Mansion, inside the study!

Miao Shou'an, who looked thin, looked at Zhang Zhenwei, who was restless, and although he wanted to persuade him, he didn't know where to start.

This time, the gangsters threatened them with the sons of the two of them, wanting to exchange Ge Feiying and Zhang Nanhao.

For this condition of the gangster, it is impossible for Miao Shouan and Zhang Zhenwei to agree.

Even if it was their son, they would never dare to replace Ge Feiying and Zhang Nanhao, unless, they were not afraid of the accountability of the imperial court.

But although the two of them had decided to sacrifice their sons, Ge Feiying and Zhang Nanhao were still rescued by those gangsters.

Although Zhang Zhenwei was a little fat, pacing back and forth in the study, looking very clumsy, he didn't seem to feel this, he still sighed as he walked, and finally sat back on the main seat and sighed.

"Master Miao, I really miscalculated this time, I didn't expect those gangsters to be so cunning and calculate ...... to this point."

Speaking of this, Zhang Zhenwei's tone paused, and then continued, "By the way, Master Miao, there are enough people to search, right?" ”

Miao Shou'an shook his head with a wry smile, "Most of the personnel in Nanjun City have been taken away by Lord Guo, and suddenly such a big thing happened, the soldiers who defended it couldn't move, and they had to guard the city gate and city wall."

The only people who can use it are the people in the yamen. ”

Speaking of this, Miao Shou'an's tone paused, and then continued, "Now all the people in the yamen have been dispatched, and even the officials on duty have asked them to search the streets.

Now it's time to do your best! ”

Zhang Zhenwei looked at the dark night outside the door, and suddenly said, "It's better to let my family also participate in the search, Nanjun City is so big, one more person has more strength." ”

Miao Shou'an shook his head, "You can't do this, although those gangsters rescued Ge Feiying and Zhang Nanhao, who knows if they will come to have intentions for you, in case they transfer everyone away like Lord Guo, and those gangsters really come to the Assassin's Mansion, wouldn't it be bad." ”

Zhang Zhenwei sighed, "Can we only wait like this?" ”

Miao Shou'an smiled bitterly and shook his head, "After this incident happened, I have already sent someone to inform Lord Guo, hoping that he can come back as soon as possible and participate in this search." ”

Speaking of this, Miao Shou'an's tone paused, and then continued, "However, the people I want to deliver the letter come and go, and coupled with the time for Lord Guo to come back, I think if they want to come back, I'm afraid they will have to wait until tomorrow afternoon at the earliest." ”

After listening to Miao Shou'an's words, Zhang Zhenwei was silent for a long time, and a cold light suddenly shot out of his eyes, "Master Miao, have you already sent someone to guard the city gate?" ”

Miao Shou'an nodded, "Additional manpower has been sent at the city gate, but we don't know now, those people left Ge Feiying and Zhang Nanhao, whether they left the city immediately."

If they had gone out of the city at once, we had not received any news at that time, and the gates had not yet been sealed, I am afraid they would have fled. ”

"Hey!"

Zhang Zhenwei slammed his fist on the table with some annoyance, "These hateful things, if I catch him, I must ...... them." ”

Before Zhang Zhenwei's words were finished, he suddenly stopped.

There was a rush of footsteps outside the door, and it was obvious that the footsteps were not the footsteps of a person, because the footsteps of a person would not seem so chaotic.

Zhang Zhenwei raised his head and looked at the door of the study with some annoyance, and shouted.

"Who did you tell not to let people disturb us?"

As soon as Zhang Zhenwei's words fell, the footsteps at the door had already come to the door.

"Zhang Tingshi, it's too late!"

Looking at Guo Yi, who walked into the door quickly, Zhang Zhenwei was stunned for a moment, then he was overjoyed, stood up suddenly, and said with a smile.

"Lord Guo, are we still worried that you won't be able to come back?

I didn't expect you to come back so soon! ”

After hearing Zhang Zhenwei's words, a trace of embarrassment flashed in Guo Yi's eyes, if it wasn't for Lu Dashi's reminder, he probably wouldn't have received the letter now!

"Lord Thorn Shi, have Ge Feiying and Zhang Nanhao been rescued by them?"

Zhang Zhenwei nodded, and hurriedly said, "Master Guo, all the people you brought back have been brought back, right?" ”

Guo Yi nodded hurriedly, clasped his fists and said, "It's all brought back, they are waiting for the adult's order!" ”

When Zhang Zhenwei heard this, he hurriedly waved his hand, "Immediately send an order down and let them search the whole city." ”

When a guard waiting outside the door heard Zhang Zhenwei's order, he hurriedly answered and ran out quickly.

Looking at the back of the guard, Guo Yi was about to speak, but Zhang Zhenwei suddenly saw Lu Dashi behind Guo Yi, and couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, turned his head to look at Guo Yi, and asked suspiciously.

"Lord Guo, who is this person?"

Hearing Zhang Zhenwei's question, before Guo Yi could speak, Miao Shouan had already walked quickly to Lu Dashi and patted him on the shoulder.

"Zhang Tingshi, I know him, he is Lu Dashi, the head catcher of Huaishui County."

"Lu Dashi?"

Zhang Zhenwei was stunned for a moment, then suddenly remembered something, and asked with a smile, "Could it be that he is Lu Dashi who solved the case of Lord Miao's family?" ”

Miao Shouan nodded, "That's right, if it wasn't for him last time, I'm afraid my nephew's matter wouldn't be so easy to solve." ”

Speaking of this, Miao Shou'an's tone paused, and then continued, "What's more, Zhang Tingshi, have you forgotten those blades you found, if these blades are taken away by those gangsters, I don't know how many people will be killed!" ”

After hearing Miao Shou'an's words, Zhang Zhenwei looked at Lu Dashi carefully, and then nodded with a smile, "I really didn't expect that Lu Zhutou is a good hand at solving cases!" ”

After saying this, Zhang Zhenwei turned his head to look at Guo Yi, "Master Guo, you brought Lu Zhutou here, didn't you want him to help us solve the case?" ”

Guo Yi nodded hurriedly, "I'm ashamed to say it, if it weren't for Lu Zhutou's reminder this time, I'm afraid we wouldn't be able to come back so early, maybe we would have to rush to tomorrow afternoon." ”

After hearing Guo Yi's words, Zhang Zhenwei couldn't help but look at Lu Dashi again, and had some doubts in his heart.

Can this strong and strong man really think of this?

When Lu Dashi heard Guo Yi's words, he hurriedly hugged his fists, "I just made a suggestion, in fact, the main credit is that Lord Guo immediately made a decision, and believed in the words of the next, otherwise, the next is a great ability, and the army will not be able to come back." ”

After seeing Lu Dashi's words, Guo Yi was stunned for a moment, and then he was overjoyed.

This time he was able to withdraw quickly, and the main credit is, of course, Lu Dashi's.

can hear Lu Dashi say this, the biggest credit is not him, but his own main general.

The most important thing is that Lu Dashi is still very reasonable, if it weren't for himself, the main general, how could the army withdraw?

Thinking of this, even Guo Yi himself believed that the main credit this time was his own.

Zhang Zhenwei's eyes flashed with a hint of surprise, and then he stepped forward and patted Lu Dashi's shoulder, and said with a pun.

"Lu Zhutou, good job, you did a good job!"

Speaking of this, Zhang Zhenwei's tone paused, but then, he didn't wait for Lu Dashi to answer his words, so he continued to speak to himself.

"Ge Feiying and Zhang Nanhao were rescued by them, I don't know if you can get them back?"

When Lu Dashi heard this, he hugged his fists, "My lord, when were Ge Feiying and Zhang Nanhao rescued?" ”

Zhang Zhenwei thought for a while, "It should have been an hour ago, and the people in the yamen came to report that Ge Feiying and Zhang Nanhao were rescued. ”

Lu Dashi nodded, "After Ge Feiying and Zhang Nanhao were rescued, what arrangements did the adults make?" ”

This time, without waiting for Zhang Zhenwei to speak, Miao Shouan preemptively said, "After Ge Feiying and Zhang Nanhao were rescued, they immediately ordered the city gate to be closed and the city wall to prevent those gangsters from leaving the city. ”

After hearing the words of the two, Lu Dashi frowned, "If that's the case, then I believe that Ge Feiying and Zhang Nanhao haven't left the city yet." ”

Speaking of this, Lu Dashi's tone paused before continuing, "They should have hid somewhere in the city and hidden. ”

After listening to Lu Dashi's words, Miao Shouan nodded, "I think so too, so I have already asked people to search the city, I believe it won't be long before news comes over." ”

……

After Li Zhutou and Zhang Yidong returned to the yamen, they did not rush out to search, but called the official on duty to inquire about the situation at that time.

After asking about the direction in which the gangsters fled, he and Zhang Yidong took people to patrol along the street.

Where Li Zhutou could think of it, others also thought of it, and the inns and hotels where Li Zhutou passed were haunted by catchers and officials from time to time, proving that this place had been searched.

Li Zhutou walked all the way, constantly thinking in his heart, if the gangsters fled in this direction, where they would eventually flee.

The first place Li Zhutou thought of was, of course, the inn.

Because, the inn is the easiest place to accept outsiders, as long as there is silver, plus the guide, you can stay as long as you want.

Li Zhutou and Zhang Yidong searched several inns in a row, but still found nothing.

Out of the inn, Zhang Yidong said with some disappointment, "Where are these hateful guys hiding?" ”

Listening to Zhang Yidong's words, Li Zhutou thought in his heart, the inn can indeed hide from outsiders, but relatively speaking, it is also the place that is most likely to be suspected by the yamen.

Since those gangsters were able to devise such an ingenious plan, they naturally would not have failed to think of this.

Since they knew that the inn was dangerous, they probably wouldn't hide in the inn.

But if you don't hide in the inn, where can you hide in Nanjun City?

Just when Li Zhutou was puzzled, he suddenly looked up and saw a tall building in front of him.

After seeing this building, Li Zhutou's eyes suddenly lit up.

"Ci'an Temple!"

The tall building in front of it is the iconic building of Ci'an Temple, a 7-story tower!

Ci'an Temple is located in the westernmost part of the southern county town and is the largest temple in the southern county town.

Looking at the 7-story tower in front of him, Li Zhutou clapped his hands violently, hurriedly pulled Zhang Yidong beside him, and said with a smile.

"Lao Zhang, let's go to Ci'an Temple to have a look, maybe they are hiding in Ci'an Temple?"
