As the saying goes, the enemy in the dark is the most terrifying!
Because you know nothing about it, but it can be like a poisonous snake, staring at your every move coldly.
However, when this darkness dissipates, or in other words, the enemy reveals some clues.
For Xiao Han, there was nothing to fear in an instant.
After some arrangements, the "lucky" Wang Wu once again accepted the good job of infiltrating the enemy's interior. He walked out of the door with the wind rustling and Yi Shuihan heading for Nancheng.
After being whispered by Xiao Han, the horse gang leader also hurriedly stood up and left.
Seeing the two people leaving one after another, Xiaodong, who was waiting outside the room, immediately rushed in and asked Xiao Han puzzledly: "Master Hou, now that we know their den, can't we join forces with the man named Ma and knock on the door directly? Oh! Why bother giving me a famous assassination? By giving it away, won’t they know your identity?”
Xiao Han was drinking tea from a cup in the room. When he heard this, he rolled his eyes at the irritable Xiaodong and said angrily: "Are you stupid? Those bastards already know our identity! Otherwise, they will send someone to death The soldiers come out? Do you really think that our hiding is so tight that no one can notice it?"
"Huh? That seems to be what you mean..." Xiaodong blushed a little when Xiao Han scolded him. He just scratched his head and thought of something again. He said "ah" and asked urgently: "Since they know it's you, how dare they do this?" Do it openly! Doesn't that mean we are at odds with each other?! You asked Wang Wu to deliver the assassination, isn't this a meat bun beating a dog?"
Xiao Han was taking a sip of tea soup at this time, and he choked on Xiaodong's "beating the dog with meat buns". The whole mouthful of tea spurted out, making him cough and said angrily: "Ahem! What is beating with meat buns?" Dog? This is sending a sheep into a tiger's mouth... Well, this is wrong! Anyway, as long as you know, they don't dare to touch Wang Wu!"
"Why?" Xiaodong was quite puzzled.
"Because these people's identities make them have too many worries!" Xiao Han replied with a smile.
"These people? Lord Marquis, do you already know who they are?" Xiaodong was surprised and asked quickly.
"Hmph..." Xiao Han dropped the tea bowl and snorted coldly: "Although I don't know who they are, I can guess the identity behind them! Make plans when the world's general trend comes, and withdraw when the world's general trend goes away! Now, aren't there only a few companies that watch their rise and fall over the past few decades?
It’s just that I have no grudges against them in the past and no grudges in recent days! I really can’t figure out why they targeted me today! Therefore, what I asked Wang Wu to go there alone this time was just a test! Test their reaction!
If they had planned this for a long time, they would have done it flawlessly. Even if we went in to search, we wouldn't be able to find any evidence! If not, I will send them out to me just as I want them to hide them! "
"The Marquis is wise!" Xiaodong's eyes began to light up when he heard this. Although he didn't understand, what the Marquis said could be wrong?
"They'd better be tough. Then let's unite with the people from the Sanshui Alliance to attack them! Loot their nests! Kill their people! Finally, burn them all with fire. Even if we can't find them, we can't find them." We must choke them to death! So that others will know that we are not to be trifled with!"
Different from Xiao Han's idea of courtesy first and then fighting, Xiaodong's current thinking is still the same as in the military!
I don’t care who you are, but since I took the knife first, I’m sorry, either I will chop you to death today, or you will be hacked to death by me! Anyway, if there is no blood, the knife cannot be used back! One or two from the province thought I was easy to bully, and both wanted to come and take a bite!
"Dan Ding Dan Ding..."
Looking at Xiaodong who was inexplicably excited, Xiao Han couldn't help but pour a basin of cold water on his head: "You still want to unite with the Sanshui Alliance? Do you think they have the guts?"
"Ah? This..." A basin of cold water was poured down, and Xiaodong was indeed dead!
From the tone of the caravan leader's words just now, he could tell that this old boy seemed to be afraid of those people! Now let him help with the attack? It's really a bit difficult.
"Master Marquis, how about I rush back to Yangzhou immediately and call all the brothers over?" The little girl rolled her eyes and asked in a low voice.
However, Xiao Han frowned, and then waved his hand: "Don't worry, take a look and then talk! Take a look and then talk!"
————
Xiaodong didn't know what Xiao Han meant by "see and then talk". Similarly, Wang Wu didn't know why he came to deliver the letter.
While walking hurriedly, he looked down at the envelope in his hand. There were three big characters "Your Respect". He happened to not recognize the couple...
"This may be what Mr. Storyteller said about the war between the two countries. Let's declare the war first! Then I am the envoy now. When we meet later, I must be stronger. Anyway, I won't kill the envoy if we start a war..."
Wang Wu thought about it and straightened his back a little, but the storyteller might have forgotten to tell him: it seems that not many people follow the rule of not killing envoys! On the battlefield, there are far more people who chop an envoy into dumplings as soon as they meet him than someone who sends him back in full shadow!
Ahead is the Nancheng that the man was talking about.
For some reason, Wang Wu felt something obviously strange from the moment he set foot here.
Unlike the dilapidated houses that can be seen everywhere along the way, although the ancient houses here show the vicissitudes of life, they are by no means shabby!
Even Wang Wu, who doesn't know much about architecture, can detect the ancient meaning and exquisiteness contained in the high walls, the cornices reflecting the sky, and the red couplets engraved with regular script.
"Ahem, is there anyone?"
With his heart trembling inexplicably, Wang Wu gathered up his courage, walked to a door, and pressed the copper ring on the door hard.
"Dang Dang Dang..."
When the copper ring hit the wooden door, there was a sound of metal clanging, which echoed far away in the surroundings.
"who?"
After a long time, someone finally answered from behind the door.
Wang Wu, who was a little suspicious due to the weird atmosphere around him, finally breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the voice. Is there anyone there? No ghost? That would be easy! As a ranger, the last thing he fears is people!
"Me!" Wang Wu stomped on the door in a rage, and shouted at the top of his lungs: "My young master has a letter for you! Open the door quickly!"
"Zhizhi..."
The heavy door opened, but strangely it didn't make too much noise. Then a man who looked like an old housekeeper appeared behind the door. A pair of old but still energetic eyes scanned Wang Wu back and forth several times.
"Who is your young master?" After looking at Wang Wu thoroughly, the old housekeeper slightly cupped his hands and asked.
"Hey, are you pretending to be confused because you understand?" Seeing the old housekeeper's behavior, Wang Wu impatiently pressed the letter into his hand and said, "There is a letter here, read it for yourself!"
