Not to mention that the Luyang County Magistrate Liu Ying and the county magistrate Ding Wu have begun to doubt the life and death of Zhao Yu, the second son of the township marquis's palace, let's talk about Zhao Yu's side.

After returning to Yuchang Village that day, Guo Da rebuked Wang Qing and others and ordered the latter not to leave the mountain village without permission.

If it were the past, the rebellious Wang Qing would have been furious, but this time, he did not dare to contradict Guo Da. Although he was full of anger, he did not have any attacks. Obviously, he also understood that if Zhao Yu had not come forward to save them this time, their group would have been sent to the vegetable market in Luyang County for questioning.

And the bandits in the entire village also saw this.

Although it is indeed not a glorious thing to obey a child in his teenage years old, Zhang Feng, Ma Hong and others have to admit that the "young" village leader named Zhou Hu is indeed more humane than Yang Tong. Even Wang Qing, who is so disrespectful to him, is willing to take the risk to rescue him.

But how to rescue it?

Chu Jiao once asked his adopted son Chu Yan privately, and asked about Zhao Yu and others the process of rescuing Wang Qing. Chu Yan said embarrassedly: "The adoptive father is not hiding it. It is just when he came back, Guo Da asked us to keep the secret for... for our new village leader. The child had already agreed at that time. If it was revealed to the adoptive father, wouldn't the child know his words but not trustworthy? The adoptive father only needs to know one thing. As the adoptive father guessed that day, Zhou Hu was very not simple, and his origin was even more simple. Ding Lu from Qudongtun just saw him and agreed to release Wang Qing."

Upon hearing this, a few surprises flashed in Chu Jiao's eyes, and he immediately said with a smile: "Okay, since you have made a promise and kept the secret, then I will not ask too much for my father."

Having said that, Chu Jiao still guessed a few points.

Although he could not guess Zhao Yu's exact identity at once, Chu Jiao also guessed some facts from Chu Yan's words: the child named Zhou Hu must be from Luyang County, and he was also a very famous person in the local area. Otherwise, Ding Lu and others who caught Wang Qing would not be so readily released.

Taking this clue as a premise, it was only a matter of time before Chu Jiao guessed Zhao Yu's exact identity.

Chen Zu, Wang Qing, Zhang Feng, Ma Hong, Liu Heimu and others were not so convenient. They were all curious about how Zhao Yu and others rescued Wang Qing, especially Wang Qing himself, who was the most surprised. After all, according to his understanding, Zheng Township, where he fell, was a special village with a population of nearly 1,500, and 70% of them were young and middle-aged people. Not to mention fearing the current Heihu Village, even in the heyday of the Heihu Village, people might not be afraid.

This is such a village. The little village leader who he refused to surrender came forward in person, but he actually allowed Ding Lu to release them obediently. There must be some secret in this.

But unfortunately, Guo Da, Chen Mo, Niu Heng, and Chu Yan all kept their mouths in front of this.

Maybe it was really boring to stay in the mountain village. Chen Zu, Wang Qing, Zhang Feng, and Ma Hong were idle and wanted to dig out this secret.

In the end, they decided to use Niu Heng, who they thought was the easiest to coax as a breakthrough.

At Chen Zu's instruction, he and Zhang Feng and Ma Hong invited Niu Heng to drink.

Speaking of wine, Yuchang Village does not store much wine, and there are only a dozen jars of the entire mountain village. After the bandits of Heihuzhai occupied the village, Guo Da distributed the wine to the leaders, and each person did not get much. Therefore, in a time when the wine was short, Niu Heng naturally would not refuse the invitation from Chen Zu and others.

However, Chen Zu and others did not expect that Niu Heng was the one who was a man who was not stupid. After drinking the wine of Chen Zu, Zhang Feng and Ma Hong, he wiped his mouth and turned his face openly and said, "That's my brother's secret. How can I, Niu Heng, betray my brother?"

Zhang Feng and Ma Hong were stunned on the spot, and even Chen Zu was amused.

The three of them, who claimed to be more intelligent than Niu Heng, realized that they had been deceived by a bull.

But I have also drunk the wine, so I can't let Niu Heng spit out the wine again, right?

Not to mention that the three of them may not be able to beat Niu Heng. Even if Niu Heng is willing to spit out the wine, can he still drink this wine?

So the matter was left alone.

Afterwards, Niu Heng told Zhao Yu about this as a proud thing, which made Zhao Yu feel funny.

He didn't expect that even Chen Zu was trapped in Niu Heng's hands.

A few days later, on a day approaching the end of August, Zhao Yu took Jingnv, Chen Mo, Niu Heng, Chu Yan and others down the mountain and went to Zhengxiang again.

This time Guo Da did not follow him, but stayed in the mountain village because Zhao Yu entrusted him to bring people to build some big houses in the mountains as barns so that after Dinglu sent people to deliver food, there was a place to store it. After all, September is approaching and winter is about to begin soon, so Zhao Yu naturally had to prepare the winter food in advance.

Before leaving, Guo Da reminded Chen Mo, Chu Yan and Niu Heng to protect Zhao Yu, and the three of them agreed confidently.

Along the road I walked a few days ago, Zhao Yu and his group came to Zhengxiang again.

Because they were wearing their hats like last time, they were naturally stopped by the local residents again.

In response, Zhao Yu explained in a rough voice: "We came here a few days ago, the old friend of Dingludingtun."

It is obvious that Ding Lu must have explained something after that day. When the local garrison heard Zhao Yu's words, he did not interrogate them like the previous time, but immediately called Zuxing, who was nearby.

Zuxing was Ding Lu's good brother and one of the few people in Zhengxiang who knew the details of Zhao Yu and others. He quickly walked to Zhao Yu and others, looked around vigilantly, and whispered: "Young Master Zhou, this is not a place to talk. Let's talk about it later when we enter the village."

"What's wrong?" Zhao Yu asked in confusion.

Zu Xing explained: "After that day, Ding Wu sent some county soldiers to come. At first, he deliberately found fault, but after my elder brother begged for mercy, he finally withdrew those county soldiers. However, the people in our village still saw county soldiers secretly monitoring... Have you ever encountered those county soldiers on the way of Mr. Zhou?"

Hearing this, Zhao Yu turned to look at Chen Mo and Chu Yan. Both of them shook their heads and said that they had never noticed it on the way.

“That’s the best.”

Zu Xing nodded and immediately took Zhao Yu and others to the gate, and took them to Ding Lu's house.

At this time, Ding Lu's wife Ma was sewing old clothes in the house. When she saw Zhao Yu and his group, she immediately came up happily, invited Zhao Yu and others to sit at the table in the house, poured water again. During this period, she explained: "Brother Ding is going to Zhengxiang today. Second... Master Zhou, sit for a while... Axing, go and call your elder brother."

"Okay."

In this way, Zhao Yu and his friends were drinking water in Ding Lu's house, waiting for Ding Lu to arrive.

Soon, Zu Xing led Ding Lu back, and there was another person accompanying him. Zhao Yu recognized him as Zheng Yong, the son of Zheng Township's head, at a glance.

With Chen Mo, Niu Heng and Chu Yan's slightly alert eyes, Zheng Yong walked to Zhao Yu several steps, carefully identified it, and then bowed and said, "Zheng Yong has seen the second young master. The second young master escaped the disaster that day, so he has finally opened his eyes to heaven."

Zhao Yu smiled and politely said, then said with a little meaning: "For some reason, my name is Zhou Hu now."

"Oh." Zheng Yong immediately understood and bowed and bowed again: "Young Master Zhou."

From the side, Ding Lu took a bowl of water from Ma's hand, and after taking a sip, he explained to Zhao Yu: "I was discussing with Zheng Yong about transporting grain to Master Zhou. When Axing happened to come to deliver the news, Zheng Yong must meet Master Zhou in person... By the way, when the master came, was he seen by the county soldiers outside the camp?"

Zhao Yu shook his head and asked, "Civil Ding is making things difficult for you to wait?"

"It can't be said to be a dilemma."

Ding Lu and Zheng Yong sat down at the table, then lowered their voices and said, "Ding Wu's attitude was a bit strange these two days. After that day, the next day he sent some county soldiers to the village to find fault. I thought he was retaliating against me, so I invited him to his house for wine and apologized to him. But when he was drunk, he began to ask me intentionally or unintentionally, asking, "Did Wang Qing's accomplices come yesterday?", and asked, "Did you have your old acquaintance among Wang Qing's accomplices?", and even later he even urged me, saying that he saw Jingnv when he was following the young master and others that night..."

He let out a sigh, shook his head and said, "Fortunately, Ma was smart at that time, and made a young girl cry in the inner room and relieved me of the siege, otherwise I really didn't know how to answer... I felt afterwards that he might have noticed something."

"ah."

When the Jingnv heard Ding Lu's words from the side, he covered his mouth in surprise.

Seeing Ding Lu, Zheng Yong and Zu Xing cast puzzled eyes, Zhao Yu smiled and told him about the night of Jing's disguised girl pretending to be a female ghost to scare Ding Wu and others. He heard it and felt funny that Ding Lu and the other two felt so funny that he couldn't help but fantasize about Ding Wu's appearance that was frightened and stunned at that time.

After laughing, Ding Lu shook his head and said, "I am frank, this is not a good idea... If the young master wanted to get rid of him that day, he just had to circle around the forest while the night was dark. Why let the girl Jing pretend to be a ghost to scare him? This will instead arouse the suspicion of my own family... I guess that Ding Wu probably began to suspect that girl Jing is still alive because of this incident, and even began to suspect that the young master is still alive."

Hearing this, the quiet girl sitting next to Zhao Yu showed an anxious look on her face. She didn't expect that what she thought was good would actually expose her and Zhao Yu's secrets.

Seeing this, Zhao Yu patted the back of her hand as comfort, and then explained to Ding Lu and the others: "I know that when Jingnu proposed this idea that day, I had already considered that there might be flaws, but that was a last resort... I understand that County Magistrate Ding's personality, he will not wait to be thrown away by me as you said. If he feels that he is about to lose, he will definitely take the risk and try to kidnap one or two people and force me to ask the truth. I don't want to fight him, so I let Jingnu scare him.

, scare him away... As for what you said, he might have guessed, it doesn't matter. Now we are hiding in Luyang, relying solely on Zhengxiang's help is not enough, it depends on the attitude of the Luyang County Government. If the Luyang County Government arouses hostility to me, we will definitely stay in Luyang County for a short time. Therefore, I took this opportunity to deliberately reveal the flaws to Ding Wu, see the attitude of the Luyang County Government, and see if they are willing to provide me with convenience and help. If not, then I have to make other plans in advance."

"I see."

After listening to Zhao Yu's explanation, Ding Lu and Zheng Yong suddenly realized.

Immediately, Ding Lu seemed to have thought of something and asked Zhao Yu: "Since that's the case, then when I wait a few days to transport grain to the young master, I don't have to deliberately hide my whereabouts?"

Zhao Yu asked in surprise: "Did he understand?"

Ding Lu nodded and said helplessly: "It's impossible to hide it. Those county soldiers are staring at Qudongtun day and night, and even Zheng Village also sent someone to monitor them. I discussed the food transport with Zheng Yong today, which is a headache for this matter... Although Ding Wu has removed the county soldiers outside, I know that he just noticed that we were loading food and deliberately relaxed the surveillance in order to track us and find the place where the young master is."

Hearing Ding Lu's words, Zhao Yu couldn't help but look up and down at Ding Lu.

He did not misjudgment back then. Ding Lu was indeed a bit of talent, but this guy was too bastard and couldn't be reliable at all. Until now he married Ma, he gradually took responsibility and was called a reliable man after Ma's advice.

Sure enough, men will only change after they get married.

While feeling moved, Zhao Yu thought for a while and said, "Yes...you just pretended not to know. I also wanted to see Ding Wu's reaction and the county government's reaction."

Hearing this, Ding Lu nodded and said, "Since that's the case, I'll just send a batch of food to you today and send the young master back."

Zhao Yu thought for a moment and nodded: "Okay."

On that day, Ma cooked some more dishes to treat Zhao Yu and others. There was not enough food and food at home, so Zheng Yong simply asked Zuxing to go to his Zheng Village to pick it up.

After drinking period, Zhao Yu could feel that Zheng Yong seemed to want to ask him some questions, but for various reasons, Zheng Yong did not ask in the end.

An hour later, after everyone was full of food and food, Ding Lu called dozens of villagers and ordered them to transport the grain in the granary to the grain truck.

Immediately, he led the team and went to Yuchangshan Village with Zhao Yu and others.

Facts have proved that Zhao Yu and Ding Lu's judgment was correct. Although the surveillance of county soldiers could no longer be seen on the surface in the Qudongtun area, in fact, Ding Wu secretly led people to monitor Zhengxiang. However, he and the county soldiers under him all changed into casual clothes of ordinary people, so they were not eye-catching when they were far away.

After the grain transport team in Qudongtun moved, Ding Wu immediately noticed it.

"It's still Mr. Liu who has great ideas."

He secretly praised the wisdom of county magistrate Liu Yi in his heart, and Ding Wu immediately led the county soldiers to quietly follow the team.

A few days ago, Ding Wu took advantage of Ding Lu's convenience of inviting him to drink and wanted to take the opportunity to make a mess, but in the end he was disturbed by Ma's family.

After returning to the county government office, Ding Wu told Liu about the matter.

Liu thought for a while and said, "If the second young master is really among the Yingshan gangs who sneaked into our Luyang and have contacted Zhengxiang, you might as well send someone to stare at Zhengxiang secretly... The Yingshan gangs crossed Yingshan and came to our territory of Luyang, and so far, no one has been looted by bandits to report to the official. I guess they must be short of food. If they were really the second young master, Zhengxiang might send someone to transport food secretly. If you stare at Zhengxiang, you can find the second young master's hiding place... Remember, don't make a statement."

"I understand the humble position."

Ding Wu nodded convincingly at that time.

On that day, while Zhao Yu and others pretended to be unknown, Ding Wu led several county soldiers to track the grain transport team and came all the way to the foot of Yuchangshan Village.

Not long after, Guo Da, who received the news, sent Chen Zu, Zhang Feng, Ma Hong and others to take people down the mountain and transported all the food transported by Ding Lu and others up the mountain.

Chen Zu, Zhang Feng, Ma Hong and others were very surprised.

You should know that when Guo Da ordered them to go down the mountain, he only said, "There is food at the foot of the mountain, and you guys will take it to pick it up." Chen Zu and others thought they were preparing to rob the caravans passing by, but they didn't expect that someone actually brought them food.
