Fu Yao pondered for a long time and said to the spy: "It is better to believe that this kind of thing is not to believe that it is not."

"This place is close to the barbarians, and people here do things, and it is not common sense to speculate. Who knows what they are going to do?"

The spy said, "Then we..."

Fu Yao thought for a while and said, "Prepare troops and encircle the Ping'an Coal Mine, and the encirclement is larger. You must surround it from a distance and do not alert the snake."

The spy agreed and immediately went to convey the order.

Half an hour later, the troops were ready to go, and Fu Yao personally led them to the Heping Coal Mine.

"Sir, something is wrong here." said the investigative team.

The head of the investigation team was carrying his luggage and walking out of breath. He whispered, "Why is something wrong?"

The man said, "I vaguely seemed to hear the neighing of the horse."

The chief official was slightly stunned: "The horse's neighing? Why didn't I hear it?"

The man said, "See in this direction, yes, yes, yes, that is the direction where the wind comes."

The chief officer closed his eyes and listened for a while, then nodded: "There is indeed a horse neighing. But... is there anything strange about this?"

The man said, "This is not the sound of the wild horses, it is someone who is driving the horse team."

The chief officer frowned and said, "So what?"

The man said, "Why are there so many people riding horses late at night? I think it's very likely that they are pursuers."

When the chief officer heard this, he immediately said, "Hurry, let's go."

When the people around him heard this, they immediately accelerated their pace and wanted to leave here.

However, not long after they left, the people behind them caught up.

The leader shouted: "Brothers, how do you walk? Where are your feet?"

The chief official turned around tremblingly and saw that the one who followed was not the pursuers, but a group of merchants.

When the people from the investigation team saw these merchants, they were immediately overjoyed and said, "Our horses are dead."

The merchant said in surprise: "All of them are dead?"

The investigative team nodded and said, "Yes, they are all dead."

The merchant was even more puzzled: "Why are all dead? Is something wrong?"

The people from the investigation team waved their hands: "Forget it, forget it, this matter is hard to describe."

The merchant said, "We still have some extra cars and horses here, otherwise, I will lend you a ride? We'll go all the way."

The people from the investigation team were overjoyed and hurriedly sat on it.

After getting on the bus, the merchants asked the people in the investigation team: "Are you here to do business too?"

The people from the investigation team nodded repeatedly and said, "Yes, yes, yes."

The merchants sighed: "The railway is broken? No train? It's really hard to leave."

The people from the investigation team nodded repeatedly.

The merchants also said, "Fortunately, we came from the second place of the wilderness. There was no train there yet? So we brought our own horses, otherwise it would be really difficult to leave this trip."

The people from the investigation team nodded repeatedly: "Yes, yes."

The merchants saw that the people in the investigation team seemed to be not talkative? After a few chats, they gave up after no response.

At this time, a person in the investigation team quietly walked to the chief officer's car and whispered: "Sir, something is wrong with this car."

The chief officer asked in a low voice: "Why is something wrong?"

The man said, "These people are obviously merchants? But why do they have no goods?"

The chief officer said, "What's the matter? Maybe they just sold out the goods."

The man shook his head: "These merchants traveled to and from the barbarian land and the Central Plains. They sold fur from the barbarian land to the Central Plains, and also sold the artifacts from the Central Plains to the barbarian land."

“The car is never empty.”

The chief officer was a little confused when he heard this.

He said to the man, "What's going on with these people in your opinion?"

The man said, "To the villain's eyes, these people are probably not good people."

The chief officer was silent for a while? He whispered: "Are they evil people?"

The man whispered, "At least not a businessman. And these people are obviously not a businessman, but they claim to be merchants? That would be very suspicious."

The chief officer said, "So, who are they?"

The man said, "The villain doesn't know, but... sir, please see, these people are all powerful, and many of them have scars on their faces. At least they have fought with people. Or, they often fight with people."

The chief official was shocked: "Is it a bandit?"

Then he shook his head again: "It shouldn't be. The prince once focused on managing this place. Whether it is work or business, he can get rich right here. There is no more land for bandits."

“There hasn’t even been a long time since there have been reports of bandits.”

The people around him nodded and said, "That's right. But... sir, will these people come from other places?"

The chief official took a deep breath: "It's possible. From the current situation, these people are probably bandits."

There are already many people from the investigation team gathered around me.

They all were worried and asked the chief officer: "Sir, what should we do now?"

The chief officer thought for a while and said, "Now, we can't alarm the snake. We have to pretend we don't know anything and wait for an opportunity to escape."

"I don't know when these people will take action. If they can wait until the day, we will be saved. There will always be someone here to pass by during the day, and we will run away directly when the time comes."

Someone around him said, "Since these bandits have already decided to follow us, will they wait until the day?"

The chief officer sighed, and then said in some annoyance: "Why do you have to follow us?"

No one around him spoke.

In fact, they knew why they had to follow them. It was nothing more than that these people dressed up and looked like rich people.

But... it was dark and dark, how did these bandits discover these people?

Today's incident is becoming more and more evil.

The chief officer sighed and said to the people around him: "It's over now, and there's nothing to say. Everyone is going to be on guard. If those people really want to take action, we can't sit still and wait for death. Even if we die, we have to bite off a piece of their meat when we die."

Everyone around him nodded and then clenched their weapons.

Suddenly, those who claimed to be merchants said, "Everyone, let's go and make some convenience."

The people from the investigation team were confused: "Go and make some convenience? You guys?"

The merchants said, "Yes."

The people in the investigation team were even more strange: "Is it convenient to have so many people together?"

The merchant smiled: "You don't know that there may be wolves in the wilderness. If you are alone, you will easily be taken away by the wolf."

The people from the investigation team said, "So that's it."

The merchants said, "So... we all went in groups. Do you want to come together?"

The people from the investigation team looked at each other, and their faces showed honey and smiled: "There is no need, we can't urinate in front of the stranger."

The merchant said, "Then we will meet again."

In fact, there were many people in the investigation team who were also very anxious to pee, but they didn’t want to go, they wanted to separate from the merchants.

Safety can make people break through physiological limits.

Merchants began to take away horses and vehicles.

This is normal. After all, merchants go to the toilet. What if the people from the investigation team ride their horses away? Then go chase them?

But the people in the investigation team don't think so.

They all sneered in their hearts: "These people are so scheming. In order not to let us escape, they actually took all the horses away."

The merchants quickly walked into the darkness.

They left and said in the darkness: "Everyone, let's go."

Then, their footsteps could not be heard.

The investigative team asked the chief officer: "What should we do now?"

The chief officer said, "What should I do? Of course I ran away."

Then, these people began to run away frantically in the darkness.

These people were very tired from running, and the ones who were the Feng family and his son were the most tired.

Feng Jia and Feng Xiaojia, two of them, had just come out of the coal mine. Although they had eaten something and had some rest, their bodies were still very weak. At this time, they ran forward desperately, almost running out of their internal organs.
