"Catch them all..." Gordon looked at the young man's face and murmured the young man's words. An unknown light flashed in his small eyes, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
When these things fell into the eyes of the young man, Gao Deng was still puzzled by the appearance of the master from the Golden Sword Sect in Yanbei City, and he immediately said: "General Gao, let's not mention the previous incident in Mo County. I just want to ask the general a question."
The young man's words brought him back to his thoughts, but Gordon did not speak. He turned around and motioned for Old Chen to take the old doctor and leave first. With Mo Jun's kidnapping, how could Old Chen rest assured that Gordon would be left to face the young man alone.
But seeing his sharp eyes, Gao Deng instantly understood that his general wanted to talk to Mu Yi alone. He immediately walked to a corner of the room, picked up the old doctor who had already collapsed on the ground, and walked out of the room. He heard the noise and hurried out. The soldiers are coming.
Everyone saw the look in Lao Chen's eyes and knew the general's intentions, so they quietly retreated.
Hearing the footsteps of people leaving outside the door, Gordon turned to the young man, seemingly hesitant and silent.
"General, do you have something to say?" The young man saw Gordon's hesitant look and asked in confusion.
Thinking back to the scene of the young man rescuing each other in the patrol, and then to the time when he used the people as hostages to force the young man for the holy plan...all the things were happening before his eyes.
"You are just a commoner, so don't get involved in Yanbei's... matter." After a long silence, Gordon finally spoke.
As soon as these words came out, the young man was slightly startled. He did not think about it for a long time like Gordon, but he immediately showed a little anger: "What do you mean by the general's words?"
"These things in Yanbei City cannot be solved by you alone. Regardless of the martial arts level of the bandit leader just now, as you said, he still has many dead soldiers and killers under him. If these people all attack together, you can Can you handle it?" Gordon said in a deep voice.
This question made the young man's anger go away, and he fell into deep thought. Gao Deng's words did not have any derogatory meaning. He was just one person. Even with the help of Miss Jiang and others, he wanted to turn Yan Bei around with his own strength. Things are also extremely difficult to accomplish.
Gu Xiao, who was deep in thought, even though Gordon's words of persuasion temporarily disturbed his determination, still did not reveal the fact that he had discovered that there was a killer lurking outside the Yunlai Inn. This was only because of what Gordon had done in Mo County. Gu Xiao found it hard to believe that he was a general who would protect the country and the people.
Gordon looked at the young man's face, hoping that he would hear what he said. Seeing that his eyes were uncertain and he seemed to be hesitating, he knew that his words had an effect. He wanted to strike while the iron was hot and continued to persuade, but he heard the young man respond and ask himself.
"General Gao is known as the idiot general, but in my opinion, no matter the general's command when dealing with the bandits' attack, or his hesitation when he used the people to threaten me in Mo County, I can see that the general is not what the rumors say. The general is a stupid bastard, and he is not willing to ruin his reputation... What are you worried about in your heart? Why do you suddenly change your mind and persuade me? "
Unexpectedly, what the young man was hesitating and thinking just now was not considering whether to follow his own words of advice, but thinking about these things. Unexpectedly, in just a short period of time, the young man would see through the mask he had put on for many years. He was shocked, Gordon had to re-examine the boy in front of him.
This green shirt, the sword case on the back, and the long sword reflecting the moonlight in his hand suddenly reminded me of the secret letter in the evening...
"So it's you..." Gordon couldn't help but speak softly.
"What did General Gao say?" The young man could only hear the fat general in front of him muttering to himself, but he couldn't understand what he was saying, so he asked in confusion.
After regaining consciousness, Gordon raised his eyebrows and said, "Nothing, nothing, I just remembered the words of an old friend."
Before the young man could speak, Gordon stopped trying to persuade him to leave. Instead, he asked, "Now that you have let the bandit leader go, how do you plan to capture the bandit next?"
"This Gao Deng, who just a moment ago advised me to stay out of the matter, suddenly changed his mind to ask me..." The young man looked at Gao Deng's plump face and became more and more confused. However, for the sake of the people of the North, Gu Xiao had no time to think about it. Many, only turned the topic to the day of military regulations.
"May I ask General Gao, when will the military regulations be established?"
Hearing that the young man asked about military regulations, Gordon didn't know what kind of medicine he was selling in the gourd. He immediately raised his head, looked at the night sky through the broken tiles, and after sweeping the night sky with stars, he lowered his head and replied: "It's past midnight...
The day of military regulations is tomorrow. "
Hearing this, the young man nodded slightly: "There's still one day left, there's still time."
"Is there enough time? What's the point?" Gao Dengcheng's scheming man was also considered the best among Yanbei generals. At this moment, he couldn't figure out what the young man was going to do, so he had to ask.
"General Gao, I just want to ask, if you knew that someone in Yanbei City rebelled against the Qi Dynasty and surrendered to the Jin Dynasty, would you put aside your past prejudices and work with other generals in Yanbei City to capture the thieves?" Although the young man's voice was soft, his words were true.
Hearing this, Gao Deng became more and more convinced that his young man had seen the clues. He straightened his face and said, "That's natural. Before Qi Yun's big event, personal grudges can't be mentioned."
The young man replied with a smile: "It's good to have General Gao's words. I'll set off right now. General Gao just needs to remember that on the day of the military regulations, someone exposed the collaboration with the enemy in Yanbei City. Please help me, General."
After finishing speaking, Gao Deng frowned slightly, as if he was worried... Although he was puzzled, Gu Xiao only said that his knot was hard to get rid of, but he was also convinced that Gao Deng would never waver in the face of such righteousness. .
The hour had come, and the young man was thinking about the agreement he had made with the Fu brothers at the Yunlai Inn. He could not miss the time, and continued to speak to Gordon: "General, I still have an appointment, so I will leave now. What will happen tonight? I hope the general will keep it a secret. To prevent those bandits from coming again, it would be better to rush to Yunlai Inn overnight."
Gordon pulled back and said, "Okay, I will keep your words in mind, general."
The young man turned his head and looked at the headless corpse of the shopkeeper on the couch in the room. He immediately withdrew his gaze, mobilized his internal strength, jumped out of the medicine shop, and headed towards Yunlai Inn...
——
Although it is already the time of the child, if the Yunlai Inn is full on weekdays, at this hour, there will only be slight snoring coming from each room. But today, in the Yunlai Inn, even the common people and guards outside the inn can The entire army was disturbed by the shocking noise just now, but there was no sound at all.
In the room on the second floor of the inn, the Fu brothers had not removed their armor. They were sitting in the room with their eyes closed, undisturbed by the noise outside the inn.
After a while, Fukang finally couldn't bear his temper, opened his eyes, stood up slowly, gently opened the window and looked at the night sky, secretly calculating the time in his heart, and then said to the brother at the table who had not yet opened his eyes. : "Did we mistrust that kid? Seeing that the time has passed, he is still nowhere to be seen."
"The person who persuaded me before was also my brother. Why are you so impatient this time?" Although Fu Rui's tone was relaxed, he was also uncertain in his heart. Although he didn't know why General Wan valued him so much, that kid was just a fool after all. Afraid of embarrassing the big task.
Fukang didn't know what his brother was thinking. He was so anxious that he kept pacing in the room. But the more he acted like this, the more angry he became. He lifted up his cloak behind him and said angrily: "No wait, I have a tiring day. Why don't you care?" There are a lot of things, let’s go to sleep first.”
The two brothers were talking, but they didn't notice a slight sound outside the window.
Just as he spoke, he heard someone knocking on the door. Fukang suddenly turned around and met his brother's gaze. He saw Furui raising his hand to make a silent gesture, slowly stood up, lowered his steps, and walked to the door. Listen carefully.
The knocking on the door started again, a bit weaker than before. Although it was still noisy outside the inn, the knocking on the door was clear. Furui looked back and nodded slightly to his brother. Fukang understood and drew the sword from his waist to be on guard.
"Who is it?" Fury asked, trying his best to lower his voice.
A young voice sounded outside the door: "Father, second uncle, it's me..."
Hearing Xiaodouzi's voice, the two brothers in the room breathed a sigh of relief at the same time. When Fukang put away his sword, Furui had already opened the door, and Xiaodouzi's petite body flashed into the room.
"It's so late, why aren't you sleeping?" I saw Xiaodouzi looking sleepy. Maybe it was to avoid disturbing the guards outside the inn and the generals of the Yanbei Camp who arrived in the evening. When Fukang saw this, he quickly stepped forward to pick her up, caressed Xiaodouzi's head and opened her mouth sympathetically.
Xiaodouzi rubbed his sleepy eyes, as if he hadn't woken up yet, yawned and said, "Father, second uncle, the noise outside makes me a little scared... so..."
The two brothers thought it was Xiaodou who came to report the news, but unexpectedly it was the baby who was afraid. They looked at each other, Fukang stroked his beard and smiled and said: "That's simple, you
If you don't mind it, you can sleep in the room of your foster father and second uncle. With our two generals protecting you, you won't be afraid. "
After his brother finished speaking, Furui saw Xiaodouzi's eyes signaling, as if he was hinting to the two of them. After thinking about it for a moment, he knew what the girl meant. There were soldiers under Shan Bin's command both inside and outside the inn. Even if the girl was not part of the army, She must be under surveillance. My niece is extremely intelligent and must have something to say, but she is worried that someone is watching outside, so she just hinted at the two of them in this way.
Thinking of this, Furui immediately stopped his brother's words and pretended to speak loudly: "Brother, you are really careless. How can we let a girl live in the room where we two big men live?"
After saying that, he turned to Xiaodouzi in Fukang's arms and said, "How about this, your adoptive father and I go to your room to guard you and help you sleep?"
Xiaodouzi's eyes, as clear as lake water, met his second uncle's gaze, and his cunning light shone. He hurriedly responded, "That's the best. With you two generals protecting me, I can sleep peacefully."
Fukang realized later that he was still thinking about the young man's verbal "promise", so he hurriedly lowered his voice and said to his brother: "Is it possible that I forgot..."
As he spoke, he caught his brother's gaze, reacted instantly, and responded with a slightly higher tone: "Whoever asked me to take in my adopted daughter, let me and my brothers coax the child back."
Fu Rui laughed in agreement, opened the door, and followed his brother to the third floor...
Fukang held the baby girl in one hand and walked to the stairs. Out of the corner of his eye, he saw several sharp eyes guarding the door of the inn on the first floor, quietly staring at his two brothers. He couldn't help but fall in love with the adopted daughter in his arms. At such a young age, he is so attentive.
Maybe he heard the sound in the wing room on the second floor just now. The surveillance eyes below followed the Fu brothers up to the third floor, pushed open the door of the quiet room in the corner, and then took it back.
"Sir, why don't we go up to the third floor and take a look? After all, our general's order is to keep a close eye on the Fu brothers."
The guard in front of the inn lowered his voice and asked the captain next to him. What he received in return was not praise from the captain, but a low reprimand.
"Aren't you tired of living? You don't know what the tempers of the Fuji brothers are. General Shan's order is to keep an eye on this evil person. The two of them have neither left the inn nor done anything extraordinary. Going upstairs at this time is not to find anyone. Uncomfortable? What's more, the generals from Yanbei Camp have already entered the wing. If you offend one of them, you can make your own plans. General Shan will offend them for little people like you and me."
As soon as this statement came out, the soldiers guarding the side also felt that it was reasonable, so they turned back and guarded the door of the inn without saying anything more.
But on the third floor of the inn, the Fu brothers who pushed the door into the room were about to close the door for a moment, and saw a figure in a green shirt flashing across his eyes in the moonlight.
At this time, the windows in the room were closed, and the Fu brothers were wondering where the moonlight came from when they felt a chill on their necks.
