Song Xin heard clearly all the conversations between the Soochow envoys, and he told Zhao Da what he heard.
Zhao Da sneered: "I didn't expect Lu Ze to be that pawn. I've long heard that he is a powerful character, but he looks so ordinary."
"Why do you recognize him, sir?"
"I've never met him, but I've heard his name for a long time. My colleague who was once promoted to the rank of school cavalry with me died in his hands, and I almost died that time," Zhao Da said in a low voice.
"Haha, that can be considered as enemies on a narrow road." Song Xin laughed softly.
"Enemies meet on a narrow road, and it's really interesting to talk about school affairs in Song Dynasty."
Song Xin accidentally said another word that did not belong to this era, and said quickly: "Listen to them, there are people in Xiling who are supporting them."
Zhao Da turned over and said, "Well, we need to inform Wenpin of this news in advance and make preparations in advance."
"Then I'll go immediately."
Zhao Da said: "If you leave like this, it is tantamount to telling them that you are from the School Office, and you have to find a way to leave the team first. I have an idea, but I'm afraid you will have to suffer a little."
...
Early the next morning, when everyone was breaking camp, there was suddenly a noise in a corner of the camp.
I saw Zhao Da yelling almost close to Song Xin's face: "You are a slave, I took you in kindly, but you repaid me with kindness! I'll beat you to death, you slave!" As he said this, he pushed Song Xin away. Pushing him to the ground, he rushed forward and beat and grabbed him. Song Xin also looked angry. He gritted his teeth and fought with Zhao Da while greeting Zhao Da's ancestors in Bingzhou dialect.
When many people heard the scolding, they stopped what they were doing and looked up. More people were curious and gathered around.
Zhao Dazheng grabbed Song Xin by the collar, pulled him up and shook him angrily.
Song Xin, on the other hand, had a look of anger and grievance on his face, clutching Zhao Da's sleeve tightly and arguing awkwardly.
Then Song Xin was pushed to the ground by Zhao Da, but he still looked unconvinced and aggrieved, and awkwardly said in Bingzhou dialect: "I...I...don't!"
Zhao Da's face turned pale. He went up and kicked him again and again, beating him randomly. Everyone couldn't stand it anymore and hurriedly came up to dissuade him. Zhao Da was pulled by several men, but he still wanted to kick Song Xin with his legs.
"Say! Where is my wallet!?"
"How do I know!? I didn't take your wallet!" Song Xin retorted while blocking Zhao Da's fists and kicks. However, in the eyes of everyone, he only resisted and did not fight back at this time. He was obviously guilty.
"What's the noise!?" The team leader heard the commotion and walked in through the crowd.
Zhao Da did not dare to take action at this time. Instead, he walked to the team leader and pointed at Song Xin angrily and complained loudly: "Sir, this slave's hands and feet are not clean!"
"What's up with him?"
"He stole my purse!"
"I didn't steal!" Song Xin stood up stubbornly, but was pushed to the ground by Zhao Da. Song Xin looked unconvinced and aggrieved, and shouted in a crying voice: "I...I...didn't !”
Zhao Da's face turned pale. He went up and wanted to kick Song Xin a few more times, but he was grabbed by the team leader and swung backwards, almost falling down.
"We haven't asked clearly about our team's rate. If you do anything again, I will kill you!"
Zhao Da was immediately frightened and his voice suddenly dropped.
But he still accused: "No? Then why is my purse under your sheepskin!? This money was used for my mother's medical treatment, and you stole it?!"
The team leader took the money bag from Zhao Da, looked at it, turned his head and asked Song Xin: "Are you a Di?"
"I am a Di!"
The team leader was already full of discrimination against the Di people and the Huns. When he heard about Song Xin's theft, he immediately believed him, "Humph, you cheap slave, how dare you come here to steal!"
The team leader directly identified Song Xin as the thief without asking why. This surprised both Song Xin and Zhao Da. The excuses they had prepared to deal with the team leader's cross-examination were useless.
"You...you wronged me, I didn't steal it!" Song Xin said stubbornly, crying in grievance.
Song Xin looked clumsy and unable to argue, which made everyone laugh.
The team leader didn't believe it at all and asked with a sneer: "How much money did he steal from you?"
"This is my money bag. I found it under the sheepskin where he slept." Zhao Da angrily took out a money bag.
The team leader took a look and said: "The evidence is conclusive, but I think you are still young, so I won't kill you. But you can no longer follow us."
"Yes, drive him away! Drive away this dog!" The surrounding civilians and soldiers also echoed.
Although her heart was filled with joy, Song Xin still prayed: "Sir, if you leave me here, how will I survive?"
Team leader smiled and said: "Then it has nothing to do with me. If you are lucky, maybe there is a village nearby that can take you in. But hey, look around."
Everyone looked up and saw a group of wolves vaguely visible in the distance. This group of hungry wolves had been following them all day.
At this time, Zhao Da saw the wolves and seemed to feel a little sorry. He said, "Sir, you can just hit him with a few sticks. If you throw him here, wouldn't you let the wolves eat him?"
The leader of the team sneered: "Stealing in the army should be severely punished. In normal times, it would cost at least dozens of military sticks. Now the leader of the team has exempted him from punishment and given him a chance. As for whether he can survive or not, It’s up to him.”
Zhao Da looked at Song Xin with a little guilt on his face. It seemed that he was regretting his impulsiveness and making too much noise.
He said in a very low voice: "Hey, if you don't steal again..."
The team leader immediately interrupted him, "Why, do you still want to keep him? If so, don't follow him."
Zhao Da was shocked: "The villain didn't mean that."
Seeing his conflicted and guilty expression, Song Xin secretly gave this man a thumbs up, "This acting is so awesome."
"Okay, let's break up. Let's set off." Team leader was very impatient and said to Song Xin: "Just go west, there may be a village. If you dare to appear in my field of vision..." Team leader After a pause, he patted the crossbow beside him, "Have you seen these crossbows of mine? Get out!"
"Yes, Di slaves, get out!" The civilian husband and soldiers also echoed.
Song Xin's face turned pale, feeling aggrieved and frightened, "Please, please, let me follow..."
At this time, the Soochow spy who was carrying a sword came over and asked about the cause of the matter and said: "Let's set off quickly. Can you afford to delay the trip? Get rid of this kid quickly!"
"This man's heart is so cruel. If he doesn't let me follow them, he really wants me to die in the wilderness." After everyone walked away, Song Xin saw that there was no man's land for hundreds of miles around. It's freezing cold, surrounded by wild animals, and there's no food or water. Ordinary people may not be able to survive the whole day.
Watching the large group of people go away, the look of despair on Song Xin's face slowly disappeared, revealing a smile. At this time, the wolves behind him had already surrounded Song Xin, circling and testing him.
"You beasts, you are really bullying the weak and afraid of the strong." After saying this, it instantly sank into the ground, leaving only a group of dazed wild wolves.
....
Two days later, the baggage team arrived at Xiling City in Jiangxia County in the evening, where Wenpin's Chinese army was located.
As soon as they entered the city, everyone felt the chilling atmosphere, and the soldiers patrolling the streets looked nervous. The baggage team encountered cross-examination from time to time. Fortunately, the team leader often came to Xiling and had some acquaintances, which saved a lot of trouble.
Not long ago, Zhang Fei raided Wang Yu's troops and beheaded more than 700 people. The remaining soldiers fled back to Xiling City, bringing back fear of the enemy.
Although Wenpin strictly ordered his soldiers not to spread the news that Wang Yu was defeated and beheaded, this matter could not be concealed and spread among the soldiers.
The secret envoy Lu Ze winked at the sword-carrying man, and the man took the school's token and left the team first.
But he didn't realize that there were already seven or eight pairs of eyes staring at him behind him.
"Zhang Hu, go tell the captain to keep an eye on the boats coming and going on the river, especially the small boats."
"promise!"
The person who spoke was none other than Song Xin. He came here a day in advance and discovered that Hua Xin had sent Wei Tong to Xiling. A large net has been opened here, waiting for the secret envoy Lu Ze to get in.
Song Xin ordered Zhang Hu to go to the riverside to report the news. He dispersed the others while he quietly followed the man carrying the sword.
It was obviously not the first time for this person to come to Xiling. He was very familiar with the terrain here after walking through the streets. On the contrary, if Song Xin didn't have the help of spiritual consciousness, which is equivalent to turning on the mini map skill, he would really be thrown away by him.
The man finally got into a narrow alley, but Song Xin reached the entrance but did not go in. He raised his hand and waved towards the watchtower not far away. The soldiers upstairs had already been watching Song Xin and began to wave the small flag in their hands. At this time, dozens of soldiers emerged from nowhere, led by Zhou Zhong and Liu Mu.
The man carrying the sword walked into a dilapidated courtyard, with only an inconspicuous thatched house inside. Usually this place is used as a gambling house by the gangsters in the city, but now it has long been abandoned.
Zhou Zhong and Liu Mu followed the instructions of the soldiers on the watchtower and surrounded the courtyard in two directions.
When he arrived at the door, Liu Mu took the lead in attacking and kicked open the courtyard door. The soldiers rushed in with a roar. I heard exclamations coming from inside the hut, and then several disheveled guys with weapons in their hands rushed out and collided head-on with Liu Mu's men.
These soldiers were obviously not as good as the school officials in the school office, and they actually let one person break out of the human wall. But when he reached the door, he was hit in the face with a fist and fell on his back.
"Take it down!" Song Xin followed and walked in. Two soldiers immediately pushed the man to the ground.
Song Xin kept walking and rushed straight to the hut, his consciousness firmly locked on the guy who took away his sword.
Before he reached the door, he happened to see the sword-carrying man get rid of a soldier and rush out. At the same time, he took this opportunity to pull out the long sword on his back. He cut off the weapons of several people in a row, and for a while he became a trapped beast.
"Is it you?" As soon as he saw Song Xin, he recognized her immediately.
"It turns out you are really from the school office!"
Song Xin stretched out his hand and said, "Your waist badge and long sword should be returned to their original owners."
"Hey, do you think we are unprepared? You idiot, the adults are already on board at this time!"
Song Xin's eyes narrowed, his figure flashed, and he punched the man carrying the sword on the cheek. The man was knocked dizzy after being beaten, and then the world in front of him turned upside down, and he fell to the ground with a thud.
Song Xin put away his long sword and his belt, and said to Zhou Zhong: "Take them back to General Wen's shogunate and wait for their fate. Liu Mu will follow me to chase Lu Ze."
