Chapter 276 Tracking
After getting off the boat, Fang Buwei found that the rain had stopped. He looked up and saw that there were several skyscrapers that could already see the starlight. It seemed that the sky was about to clear up.
After leaving the shore and walking to the path of the forest farm, Fang Buwei slightly recognized the direction and did not enter the mountain, but continued to go south.
Fang Buwei walked vigorously, and the four guards and the transmitter were almost exerting their energy to keep up.
The more I walked, the brighter the sky became, and the vision became better and better. After more than ten minutes, the moon was already exposed in the west of the sky.
After walking five or six miles south, I stopped everyone.
At this point, the guards realized something was wrong.
A big road appeared a few meters away.
I took advantage of the moonlight and saw that although this road is also a mountain road, where are the trees on the nearby mountains?
The mountain is full of bare areas, with no grass on the edges. The road is full of gravel, and it seems to be crushed by a car, which is very hard. It is completely inconsistent with the scene of walking one foot and one mud pit in my imagination, walking three steps and one step at a time.
Several guards looked at each other, where were they running?
When on the boat, Director Liu also suggested that Fang Buwei, meaning that he would better find a mountain citizen to be a guide, but Fang Buwei claimed that he knew how to get there.
Qi Zhenjiang asked half-jokingly, saying that Fang Buwei was famous for not knowing the way in the secret service, and did the sun come out from the west today?
On the map, there is no such road leading to Hongjue Temple.
The guard leader reminded Fang Buwei, meaning he was lost.
Fang Buwei shook his head, glanced back and forth, and put his ear on the road for a minute. He made sure there was no movement within a hundred meters, so he picked up the flashlight and covered it with his clothes to avoid exposure, and then looked carefully at the road.
There are indeed carriage prints on the road. Although they are very light, they are obviously just passing by.
Monk Xuanku was already on the carriage up the mountain.
The reason why Fang Buwei knew that there was such a way was when the grain shop owner told his subordinates who delivered the food.
This road leads directly to Qushan Iron Mine. When you arrive at the iron mine, you can turn to the mountain road leading to Hongjue Temple. The road is paved with slag, which is easier to walk than the road leading to the mountain in this kind of weather.
This was laid by an iron smelting company that mined ores here. Two years ago, the ore was dug up and the iron smelting plant was withdrawn. The road was naturally abandoned and few people knew about it.
Fang Buwei couldn't guarantee that he could find it before, so he didn't say it out.
"I'll send someone to change the route of travel, and I'll leave someone to pick me up..."
Fang Buwei looked at the time and was less than two minutes away from the regular contact time. He immediately asked the sender to set up a radio station on the spot to send an order to Zhao Shirui.
If Zhao Shirui really passed through the forest, Fang Buwei would probably walk until midnight.
Since he found a better way, he must remind him that Zhao Shirui complained afterwards, saying that Fang Buwei deliberately cheated him.
Hiding on the side of the road, under the cover of several guards, the sender connected to the radio station and sent the instructions out.
Then Fang Buwei left a guard and made a special trip to wait for Zhao Shirui here.
He ran all the way, and when he was about to chase the abandoned iron ore, Fang Buwei finally heard the movement from the eavesdropping device. It was equivalent to the distance between the monk and Fang Buwei.
No one spoke, only the sound of horse hooves could be heard.
Fang Buwei breathed a sigh of relief.
He was afraid that Monk Xuanku would attack the world and run to other places.
When I walked around and stopped, whenever I arrived at a fork, Fang Buwei would stop and observe, for fear of taking the wrong path.
Fang Buwei was able to find the seal, which did not mean that Zhao Shirui could find it. There was no way, so he could only leave a guard to respond as soon as he arrived at the fork. When he went down the mountain, Fang Buwei was left with a transmitter.
At this time, Fang Buwei not only carried the radio station on his back, but also carried four sets of batteries in his hand, carrying a weight of up to 200 kilograms.
Even so, the empty-handed transmitter was panting like a dog.
After going down the mountain, I walked to the end of the slag road. When I was about to reach the official road, Fang Buwei stopped.
Monk Rami's carriage had just boarded the mountain road leading to Hongjue Temple.
After being soaked in the rain, the mountain road was not as slippery as usual, and several men were shouting and pushing the carriage upwards.
Fang Buwei turned off the eavesdropping device, listened to the sounds in the distance, calculated the distance, and the distance between the two sides was no more than one mile at most.
And this place is less than two miles straight away from Hongjue Temple.
After finding a hidden place, Fang Buwei helped the sender set up a radio station again.
A few minutes later, a slight noise came from afar, and Battalion Commander Zheng led a few elite troops to arrive.
Seeing the signal sent by Fang Buwei with a flashlight, Battalion Commander Zheng quickly leaned over.
According to Fang Buwei's request, Battalion Commander Zheng only brought one elite platoon, and the rest of the troops had been arranged in four directions of Hongjue Temple according to Fang Buwei's instructions. With just one order, the Hongjue Temple could be surrounded and scattered.
"Who are you sending this direction?" Fang Buwei asked, pointing to the location of Xishan Gate on the map.
Monk Xuanku's carriage was taken from the mountain road outside the Xishan Gate. Fang Buwei had given him care and asked him to be careful.
"Don't worry, Team Leader Fang, I arranged the battalion deputy. The lurking location is half a mile away from the mountain road, and the forest is high and the forest is dense, so the people on the carriage will definitely not be able to find it..." Battalion Commander Zheng replied.
Fang Buwei nodded and asked the sender to ask Zhao Shirui's specific location.
After hearing the report from the sender, Zhao Shirui was still moving forward at a speed of seven or eight miles away.
It was less than twenty miles away, and Zhao Shirui had just walked halfway through. Looking at the watch, it was only a quarter of an hour before the agreed time. It would be strange if Zhao Shirui could arrive on time.
When I heard the sound of the carriage wheels rolling on the stone road, I was obviously about to reach the mountain gate, so Fang Buwei was not ready to wait.
Fang Buwei asked Battalion Commander Zheng to take his elite troops to approach the west mountain gate and hide outside the courtyard wall. He chased him along the mountain path.
It took Fang Buwei five minutes to go two miles away. When he arrived outside Xishan Gate, the carriage had just entered.
The monk's bald head is the best logo, and Fang Buwei saw that he was the last one to enter.
Fang Buwei took a few quick steps and deliberately walked away a little further. He climbed up the wall and saw Monk Xuanku carrying a horse lantern alone, passing through the back hall and entering the backyard.
Fang Buwei walked around the wall and walked around from afar.
There is a row of Zen rooms in the backyard. Fang Buwei actually saw soldiers guarding the door?
Because there was too late and I was afraid of alarming the snake, Fang Buwei didn't dare to send people to the temple to investigate, so I didn't know who lived inside.
But with guards guarding the gate, the official position is definitely not low. Fang Buwei is not sure whether Director Wang is also in Hongjue Temple.
If you can avoid being alarmed, it is best not to be alarmed, as it will not cause any trouble.
Fang Buwei originally thought that the monk would enter the meditation room, but Xuan Ku carried the lamp and walked through the corridor between the two rows of meditation rooms and continued to walk backwards.
It is the most inner place in the temple, and it is the dormitory where monks live.
Fang Buwei lay on the wall and stared at Xuan Ku and pushed open a door before he climbed over the courtyard wall.
As soon as he entered the door, Xuan Ku turned off the lantern.
Is it time to go to bed now?
When Fang Buwei was suspicious in his heart, a man suddenly heard from inside: "Happy Master!"
Fang Buwei was shocked.
Is this person not Li Fengnian?
