Chapter 1227 Tracking
Bai Xianghou said "Oh" and asked, "What's not simple?"
"The King of Heaven is about to capture the entire Hebei, and is ready to use troops to Fuhai Road next." Mei Niang frowned and said, "The war is now in full swing, and it is the time to use people. There are not many people in the rebel army who can really help the King of Heaven conquer the city and land. At this time, you have to transfer your second brother to the northwest. Your military power will be replaced by Lan Yinghou. Don't the second brother think something is strange?"
Bai Xianghou looked solemn, but he still said, "Maybe the king has other plans and wants to train Blue Eagle Marquis..."
"What does the second brother think?" Mei Niang sighed quietly: "If this is true, Mei Niang won't say much..."
Bai Xianghou said, "Mei Niang, since we are ordered to come, don't think too much. Follow the instructions of the Heavenly King, just take the stone and take it back and report it to the Heavenly King, and then we will complete our responsibilities."
"Second brother, do you think that stone is really that magical?" Mei Niang said softly: "The King of Heaven said that the six stones are related to the fate of Qin. As long as you get six stones, Qin will inevitably perish... But what is the function of the six stones, the King of Heaven did not tell us."
Bai Xianghou also looked puzzled on his face. After pondering for a moment, he said, "Lin Daier knows the existence of stone and knows that sentence, but he doesn't seem to know what tricks are there...!" Then he sighed, "Forget it, no matter what the function is, since it is needed by the Heavenly King, we will do our best to get it for the Heavenly King."
"But Lin Daier won't hand over it." Mei Niang said: "When she was unconscious, I searched for her, but didn't find the stone. If Lin Qingyuan really handed the stone to her, she would definitely carry it with her. Since she didn't find the stone on her, is it... Is it really as she said that Lin Qingyuan didn't hand over that stone to her?"
Bai Xianghou felt thoughtful. At this moment, the Jinlanghou finally walked over here. After a few steps away, he said: "What should I do next? Do you have any discussion?"
Mei Niang glanced at Jinlanghou and said with a smile: "Aren't you Jinlanghou full of wisdom? You can't even think of a way, how can we figure out a way?"
The Jinlang Hou did not look at Mei Niang and said to Bai Xianghou: "Bai Xianghou, we have been delaying for a long time in the northwest. The Heavenly King is afraid that he has been waiting in a hurry. If there is no news for a long time, he will be furious... Now that Lin Daier is in our hands, I believe she must know the whereabouts of the stone. If it is really not possible, she can torture the confession."
"Torturing and forcing confessions?" Mei Niang sneered: "What do you think with that woman's temperament, torture and forcing confessions can get from her?"
Jinlanghou also sneered: "No matter whether it is useful or not, you must give it a try..."
Bai Xianghou pondered for a moment and finally said, "Marquis Jinlang, there is no need to torture and confess. The stone is not on Lin Daier, it is very likely... it is on Chu Huan!"
"Chu Huan?" Mei Niang said in a little surprised: "Second brother, this is the stone handed down by the Lin family. Will Lin Daier hand it over to Chu Huan?"
Bai Xianghou said: "We cannot be sure whether Lin Daier knows the secret of stone. Maybe she just pretended not to know. Lin Daier is the last bloodline of the Western Tang royal family, and she must have the idea of restoring the country. Now she has no other forces to rely on. The only thing she can rely on is Chu Huan. If she really knows the secret of stone, she may not have made some deals with Chu Huan with secrets."
Jinlanghou's eyes lit up and he said, "Bai Xianghou said it right. Since the stone is not on Lin Daier, it may be on Chu Huan. Now that we have Lin Daier in our hands, we can use it as a hostage and force Chu Huan to hand over the stone."
Mei Niang sneered: "Do you think Chu Huan will be coerced so easily?"
"Maybe not, but you have to try it." Jinlanghou sneered: "If he really doesn't have the desire to be compassionate, he will watch Lin Daier die in front of him."
...
...
It was rainy and rainy in late autumn. After Chu Huan left Shuoquan, this was the second autumn rain he encountered.
This is a small town, and the town is not big, but as people return to their hometowns one after another, the town is also crowded and bustling. Although it is not easy to say that the traffic is full of traffic, it is also bustling.
"Sir, if it didn't rain, you might be able to find clues." In a teahouse, Qiu Ruxu whispered to Chu Huan: "But after these two rains, even if she left clues, she had been destroyed by the rain."
Chu Huan nodded slightly, his expression quite solemn.
Qiu Ruxue is worthy of being a famous swordsman in the world. His tracking ability is indeed not weak. Using the clues about Lin Daier provided by Chu Huan, he always has goals along the way.
However, after the autumn rain, the target was immediately interrupted. Fortunately, I asked someone to ask along the way, and I knew where Lin Daier left. After chasing the town, another autumn rain fell and the clue disappeared again. Chu Huan had no choice but to take his men into the town, wanting to search for it in the town.
This time, Chu Huan brought not many people. In addition to Qiu Ruxue, he only brought Ma Zheng and Liu Suifeng.
A figure appeared in front of the teahouse. He walked in quickly and arrived at Chu Huan's table. Chu Huan had already asked, "How is there any news?"
The visitor was Ma Zheng who followed Chu Huan to pursue Lin Daier, shook his head and said, "Sir, please ask around the town east as you told me. There was no whereabouts of Miss Lin, and no one saw the person in the portrait." He was rolled up a piece of paper in his hand. In order to find out about Lin Daier's traces, Chu Huan drew it himself and painted it according to Lin Daier's daughter dressed as a man. Although the painter still cannot achieve the vividness, the whole form is very clear. Chu Huan is confident that as long as someone has really seen Lin Daier, he will definitely be able to recognize the person in the painting.
Chu Huan suddenly looked disappointed. After a moment, Liu Suifeng also returned to the teahouse. Chu Huan looked at his face and knew that there was no news. After hearing Liu Suifeng said, "Sir, I have searched all the towns in the west, and there is no whereabouts of Miss Lin."
"It seems that he has not entered the town." Qiu Ruxu whispered: "Sir, Miss Liu is weak and is walking. I think she won't go too far."
"It has been five or six days since this, and there is no trace of her, and I don't know what she is now." Chu Huan was helpless. When he first learned that Lin Daier left without saying goodbye, Chu Huan was really annoyed. He only felt that this woman was really unreasonable and too willful. However, after searching for it for a few days, he was only worried at this time.
"Sir, can you use the power of the government?" Ma Zheng lowered his voice and said, "Just as long as you have an order, post a portrait of Miss Lin in the area where Miss Lin may appear, and then offer a reward to find someone. In this way, there may be more clues."
Chu Huan shook her head and said, "It's not good to have a lot of noise. I'm afraid it's more important to attract attention and cause trouble for her. What's more, she's determined to leave. If she sees her portraits posted everywhere, she's afraid she will run farther. She has been walking in the world for many years without any other ability, but she is still somewhat capable of hiding whereabouts."
Qiu Ruxue saw that Chu Huan had lost a lot of weight after a few days and looked a little haggard. He knew that Chu Huan had been worried these days and said softly: "Sir, there are many important matters in Shuoquan. Although Gongsun and others are here, there are still many political affairs that need to be handled by the adults themselves... If the adults can trust it, we will temporarily leave it to us for handling at this time, and we will do our best to find Miss Lin."
"Oh?" Chu Huan was stunned.
Qiu Ruxue said: "I am on the northwest ground, and there are still some friends. Although they don't make a big fuss, they can help find them together, and they may be able to get the whereabouts of Miss Lin."
Chu Huan knew that Qiu Ruxue had great prestige in the world. When he attacked Hulu Village, he relied on Qiu Ruxue to secretly summon a group of people from the world and came to a surprise attack behind the scenes. In the battle between Hulu Village, Qiu Ruxue could be said to have made great contributions.
His connections in the world are enough to be trusted.
While thinking, Qiu Ruxue's one-eyed eye flashed across a fierce look, and he lowered his voice without moving, "Sir, should you notice the table in the corner of the house?"
Chu Huan didn't go to see it, but pretended to pour tea by himself. He looked around casually, and glanced around the corner of the house, but after scanning, he could see clearly that a man in gray dress in coarse cloth was sitting next to a table in the corner of the house. He looked ordinary, but the man was obviously staring at Chu Huan.
Chu Huan kept thinking about Lin Daier until she didn't pay attention to this detail.
"This man has been around us since we entered the town." Qiu Ruxue looked as if nothing had happened, as if he was just chatting casually. "When we entered the teahouse, he followed him quickly. Although he was hiding, I'm sure he had been monitoring us."
"Supervise us?" Chu Huan chuckled, "Whose person is it?"
"I don't know." Qiu Ruxue whispered: "But so sneaky and cover-up, it's obvious that he is not a good person..."
Ma Zheng whispered: "Sir, should you arrest him and interrogate him?"
"There are many people here, don't do it." Chu Huan picked up the teacup, sipped it, and whispered a few words in a low voice. Everyone was calm and composed.
Soon, Ma Zheng and Liu Suifeng stood up and left one after another. After they left, Chu Huan got up. Qiu Ruxue settled the account and left the teahouse with Chu Huan.
It was raining and there were pedestrians on the street. Chu Huan and Qiu Ruxue both prepared oil paper umbrellas and walked onto the street. Many oil paper umbrellas on the street were mixed together. The two walked along the long street and soon turned into another street.
Before they knew it, the two gradually turned to a secluded road and then turned into an alley.
The two of them walked forward, crossed the alley, turned to the left, and soon, they immediately followed someone behind, with extremely light steps. Before they could leave the entrance of the alley, they dreamed that Chu Huan, who had just turned around, returned and suddenly appeared at the entrance of the alley.
The man was surprised, but saw Chu Huan holding an oil-paper umbrella with one hand and behind her with the other hand, with a cold expression beside him, Qiu Ruxue holding an umbrella with the other hand, and pressing the other hand against the hilt of the sword.
The man quickly turned around and wanted to leave. When he turned around, he found that two people had appeared at the other exit of the alley. Ma Zheng and Liu Suifeng did not have oil paper umbrellas, but were eyeing him and approaching step by step.
