Along the way, Luo Zhang and Li Junxian led the people towards the Qilian Mountains, while outside the Qilian Mountains, Cheng Yaojin, Liu Renyuan, and Li Yifu came towards the Qilian Mountains with a bodyguard.
One is in a happy mood, and the other is anxious, forming a sharp contrast.
An hour later, Luo Zhang's team finally met Cheng Yaojin's men at the entrance to the Qilian Mountains.
Seeing that Luo Zhang was fine, Cheng Yaojin and Liu Renyuan breathed a sigh of relief. At the same time, they were also very confused. Didn't they say that the third elder of the Changsun family led the private soldiers of the Changsun family to chase Luo Zhang? Why is Luo Zhang intact?
The two of them looked at Li Yifu in unison. After all, it was Li Yifu who brought this news. Now that Luo Zhang is intact, they must ask Li Yifu what happened.
Li Yifu was also very surprised. According to the information he inquired about, it was indeed confirmed that the third elder of the Changsun family had led people to the Qilian Mountains. He also asked questions on the way and found that there was indeed a group of people heading towards the Qilian Mountains. But now Luo Zhang simply doesn't It's okay. Where did the third elder go? Could it be that he was not going to assassinate the Lord, but was instead leading people into the Qilian Mountains for hunting?
Luo Zhang naturally saw the surprise of the people in front of him. After looking at each other with Li Junxian, Luo Zhang pretended to be surprised and said: "Why are you running here? What happened?"
Li Yifu blinked and stepped forward, bowed and saluted: "Sir, are you okay?"
"What's wrong? What's wrong with me? What do you mean?" Luo Zhang continued to pretend not to know.
These words made Li Junxian almost laugh out loud. Luo Zhang was so good at pretending that he could tell lies without even blinking. He even had a strange feeling that the Luo Zhang in front of him was not a young man, but a man who was obsessed with officialdom. An old guy for many years, otherwise how could the young Luo Zhang be so calm and not surprised by changes? If it were some old guys, they might not be as calm as Luo Zhang. The only explanation is that they are freaks! evildoer!
Luo Zhang's words made Li Yifu even more confused.
"My lord, have you not met anyone from the Changsun family?" Li Yifu asked.
"People from the Changsun family? No, Commander Li and I went into the mountains on important matters. We came out just after we finished. We didn't meet any people from the Changsun family. We encountered many ferocious beasts in the mountains, but they were all gone. We killed them and put them in our stomachs!" Luo Zhang said with a smile.
As soon as these words came out, the people behind them couldn't help it anymore, they laughed, and they all touched their stomachs, as if saying, we ate a lot of the same thing, if we don't do this, they are afraid that they will really cheat!
"It's okay, it's okay. Since we didn't meet that old dog from Changsun's family, we're lucky. Come on, let's go back quickly. If we meet that old dog, we might be in trouble!" Cheng Yaojin glanced at Luo Zhang and greeted road.
Although Li Yifu is very puzzled, it is the best news that the adults are fine. Naturally, the safety of the adults is the top priority in everything. No matter how nervous you are, you can't be too nervous!
Naturally, Luo Zhang wouldn't explain too much to them. The others had already warned them before leaving the mountain, so there was nothing to worry about.
A large group of people came and left with a loud cheer. Although the trip was in vain, Commander Cheng led the team. How could the people below dare to say anything? Besides, they came here to protect the safety of their own country. Du Wei is fine, how dare he complain!
In front of the gate of Zuowuwei camp, Luo Zhang thanked Cheng Yaojin, and told Liu Renyuan to train well and then parted.
In Chang'an City, Changsun's family residence, Changsun Wuji frowned after receiving the news that Luo Zhang had returned home safely. For some reason, he felt uneasy and restless in his heart. This feeling became more and more serious as time went by.
I don’t know how long it took, but the seventh elder walked into his study and reported: "Master, I checked, no, the third elder and the two hundred private soldiers seemed to have disappeared, and there is no news at all!"
"What! How come there isn't? Didn't you send more people to investigate?" Changsun Wuji suddenly changed his expression.
"After checking, the last news is that the third elder led people into the Qilian Mountains and disappeared without a trace, never to come out again!" The seventh elder said truthfully.
"Impossible, those are two hundred living people, how could they disappear for no reason! Check again, send me people to check, we must find out their whereabouts, live to see the people, dead to see the corpse!" Changsun Wuji He ordered with an ugly expression.
Just as the seventh elder was about to leave, the second elder ran in and said: "Master, I just got the news that not long after the third elder entered the mountain, Cheng Yaojin took his people to the Qilian Mountains. Luo Zhang ended up with Cheng Yaojin. Come back!"
"Cheng Yaojin? Are you saying that the disappearance of the third elder is related to Cheng Yaojin? He sent people to kill the two hundred private soldiers and the third elder of my eldest son's family and rescued Luo Zhang?" Changsun Wuji suppressed his anger and said .
"This...can't be confirmed for the time being. It's just that someone saw Cheng Yaojin leading people to the Qilian Mountains after the third elder. As for whether they fought or not, it's not certain whether they were the private soldiers he wiped out!" The second elder hesitated and said. .
"It shouldn't be possible! I believe Cheng Yaojin wiped out the private soldiers, but he doesn't have the courage to kill the third elder. This matter cannot be taken lightly. The facts must be found out!" the seventh elder suggested.
"What Lao Qi said is right. You two should quickly send more people to find out the news, and send more people into the Qilian Mountains to search for clues to see if there are any traces of the third elder. Report back as soon as there is news!" Changsun Wuji took a deep breath. , forcing himself to calm down and said, he also knows that he cannot be chaotic at this time. His family is mainly in chaos, and the family is afraid of chaos.
"Yes, head of the family!" The second elder and the seventh elder agreed and left.
Seeing the two people leaving, Changsun Wuji picked up the teacup on the table and smashed it to the ground.
"Luo Zhang! Cheng Yaojin! Don't let me find evidence to prove that you did it, otherwise I will kill you even if I don't give up my life!" Changsun Wuji roared.
When Luo Zhang returned home, he didn't know that Changsun Wuji was furious about the third elder. Even if he knew about it, he would probably rejoice in his misfortune.
Just after returning home, Luo Zhang did not go back to his room. Instead, he took his eighteen riders and carried frames to the underground secret room.
Of course, what the Eighteenth Cavalry was carrying was the iron knot. Luo Zhang did not give these things to Li Junxian, he was all caught in the net. Giving them to Li Junxian was equivalent to blindness. This thing can only be effective here for him to slow down. Slow research.
There are quite a lot of iron eggs brought back this time, about 200 of them. Of course, they are all without lead wires, so there is no need to worry about their detonation. Otherwise, Luo Zhang would not dare to bring this thing home. Wouldn't that be? I would sleep on a powder keg at night, and it would be blown up to the sky by accident!
After placing the iron egg, Luo Zhang looked at the iron door on the side, and then he remembered one thing, that is, Hu Luanyao was still locked up by him. He almost forgot about this woman.
Counting the days, I'm afraid I'll be locked up for almost a month! I don’t know what happened to this woman!
Anyway, nothing happened today, so Luo Zhang asked someone to open the iron door next door and walked in.
What came into view was a woman in white with long flowing hair, looking blankly ahead, showing no reaction even when Luo Zhang came in.
This left Luo Zhang speechless. How come all of them turned into fools after being imprisoned? Why is that old guy Li Xiaogong so alive and kicking? Nothing can happen to this woman. The employer is planning to let her draw a map for him and lead the way. What should he do if he is so stupid?
"Hey, Hu Luanyao! I'm Luo Zhang, do you still remember me?" Luo Zhang stood in front of Hu Luanyao and waved his hand.
Before Luo Zhang could speak again, a notification sound came from his system.
"Hate value from Hu Luanyao +1000"
"From Hu Luanyao..."
Damn it, you little girl, you actually dare to deceive your employees and pretend to be dumbfounded?
Can a fool also provide hatred value?
I was almost deceived by you!
"Snapped!"
Luo Zhang gave Hu Luanyao a slap in the face without any warning, which made Chen Kuifeng behind him twitch.
He knew Hu Luanyao's situation very well. From the moment she was locked up, she yelled to get out every day, then she shouted to see Luo Zhang, then she became silent, and now she looks dull, even if she calls her, she doesn't respond. Chen Kuifeng But seeing Hu Luanyao being imprisoned like a fool!
He didn't expect that Luo Zhang was really cruel and actually slapped a fool. But even if Luo Zhang killed Hu Luanyao, it would be nothing to him. Anyway, this Goguryeo woman wanted to kill Luo Zhang and should have been executed long ago. She should stay here. Just a burden.
"Hu Luanyao! Stop pretending! Aren't you tired of pretending like this? Do you really think I will let you go if you pretend to be stupid? If you wake up, I might have a chat with you. If you keep pretending like this, then don't blame me for keeping pretending. You will be locked up until you really become a fool!" Luo Zhang stared at Hu Luanyao and snorted coldly.
"What? Is she pretending? How is this possible!" Chen Kuifeng said in surprise!
