After Liu Rumei finished sighing, she whispered, "Arrange the manpower and secretly keep an eye on this Chen Xiaobei to see who he associates with."
Liu Ce bowed, "I will make arrangements right now to monitor Chen Xiaobei at twelve hours a day."
At this time, Chen Xiaobei returned home, met Cui Hongyu, and told him that he was going to take Liu Rumei and the others up the mountain.
Cui Hongyu looked very anxious, "Husband, can you bear it if you keep going up the mountain? Why don't you tell them and go tomorrow?"
Chen Xiaobei shook his head, "We are all here, so how can we not go? By the way, no matter if I come back today or not, you must not go into the mountain tonight. If I don't come back by noon tomorrow. You guys Going further into the mountains, I will leave some marks along the way.”
Chen Xiaobei made a gesture on Cui Hongyu's hand and told her that the symbol to be left behind was > to indicate the direction in which she was heading.
Cui Hongyu nodded, "I've written it down. You should also pay attention to safety and don't let others notice. You mark it secretly and make it look like you are mysterious and want to do something bad."
Because he was going into the mountains with Liu Rumei, Chen Xiaobei didn't bring a crossbow, but just took a water bag and set off.
Along the way, Liu Ce seemed to be particularly concerned about Qingniu Mountain. After walking for a while, he pointed and asked questions, as if he wanted to learn more about Qingniu Mountain.
Of course, Chen Xiaobei said everything he knew about his questions.
While talking and walking, time flew by quickly, and the distance also went by quickly. Soon they arrived at the place where Yang Zhi and the others were ambushed.
Chen Xiaobei didn't hide anything and pointed in the direction of Calabash Valley, "I was collecting herbs there, and then I ran into Yang Zhi who was unconscious."
Liu Rumei waved his hand, and Liu Ce immediately led the people to scatter around, looking up, down, forward, left, and right for a long time, and then came back when he saw the sun was heading west.
Liu Ce pointed to the small steep slope in front and said, "There are traces of an ambush there, and there are also traces of people staying under the cliff." He pointed to Hulu Valley, "There are also traces of blood there."
After introducing these, he changed the topic, "But one thing is very strange, that is, there are messy footsteps near the mountain temple. They should be taking the back route, but there are no traces of fighting there."
Hearing this, Liu Rumei also frowned, "That shouldn't be the case. This is clearly a posture of killing them all. How could they let them go in the mountain temple?"
Suddenly she raised her eyebrows and said, "I understand, because of the traitor."
Liu Ce also slapped his thigh, "The only explanation is that the traitor must have reached some kind of tacit agreement with the ambushers, so he let them go."
Liu Rumei nodded, "Yes, find out who is alive or who brought them out, then everything will be clear."
Liu Ce bowed and said, "I'll arrange for someone to go check it out right now. Besides, now that the people in Tianzhu Country can't be counted on, what should we do next?"
Liu Rumei's expression suddenly turned grim, "Some people are in the first year of junior high school, and some have to be in the fifteenth year. They destroyed the Suzaku Gang, and we can't spare him."
As he spoke, he looked at Chen Xiaobei in the distance, his eyes full of meaning.
"Miss, do you count on him? What can a few country folk do?"
Liu Rumei smiled slightly, "I think this Chen Xiaobei is a bit interesting. If we keep an eye on him, we will definitely gain something."
When Chen Xiaobei returned home, it was completely dark.
Cui Hongyu seemed very happy to see him back, and hurried to Luo for dinner. Today's dinner included a fish.
Chen Qiaoer patted her chest and said in a show-off manner, "Brother, brother, I helped my sister-in-law catch this big fish."
Chen Xiaobei smiled and tapped her head, "Yes, Qiaoer is the best."
Cui Hongyu said with a smile, "I'm so lucky today. I caught several big fish in one net. We kept the biggest one to eat ourselves and put the rest in the pond."
Chen Xiaobei looked distressed, "Don't do this kind of rough work in the future, just leave it to men. Just be as beautiful as a flower."
Cui Hongyu felt filled with happiness after hearing these words. He knew that this was Chen Xiaobei's concern from the bottom of his heart, and it was true.
After dinner, Lidong came back and brought Chen Xiaobei good news.
Two hundred taels of silver plus the ingot of gold can buy five scimitars, five spears, two bows and a bag of arrows.
"Brother Xiaobei, this is already the lowest price. I..." Lidong hesitated, and it was obvious that he also felt that this thing was too expensive. He only spent more than two hundred taels of silver to get something like this.
But in Chen Xiaobei's view, two hundred taels of silver buys ten weapons. He can accept this price. "It's okay. Brother Lidong, these are enough. I will distribute these things to the team members tomorrow. I will have to hire someone later if I have a chance." Come on, coach, teach them well."
…
At this time, Yang Zhi and Yang Bo were walking aimlessly on the streets of Xiaojia Town. The two of them were gliding about. From the county seat to Xiaojia Town, it could be said that they were blind.
It was expected that Liu Rumei would not admit it, but then again, they could not provide any evidence and everything was based on conjecture.
"Brother. What should we do next?" Yang Bo looked confused.
Don't say he is confused, in fact Yang Zhi is also very confused now.
"Let's stay here first. We still have to find a way to find the surviving brothers!"
"Yeah, I don't know where Third Master took them."
"With the nature of the third brother, he will definitely trace the whereabouts of his enemies!" Yang Zhi said with full confidence, but at this time he did not know that his third brother Latour had already died a violent death.
The next day, Chen Xiaobei got up early and took advantage of the cool weather to go to the river to catch two nets.
After waiting for a long time to get the net down, there was still no movement. Finally, Chen Xiaobei lost his temper and stretched out his hand to pull up the net.
There were only a few three-inch-long fish in the net.
After catching two nets in a row, both were like this. Chen Xiaobei was a little discouraged. It seemed that he was not having any luck today.
That's all, I went home to make fishing nets. I came back with so many nets, but I haven't started to modify them yet.
Just as he arrived at the door of his house, there was a rush of footsteps, and Chen Xiaowen ran over, "Brother Xiaobei, that weirdo is awake!"
Chen Xiaobei hurriedly put down the fishing net and followed in a hurry.
When he arrived at the scene, he was a little surprised and surprised by the scene in front of him. Lardo was staring straight at the roof, as motionless as a sculpture.
Chen Xiaobei coughed twice, and Lardo slowly retracted his eyes, glanced at Chen Xiaobei, and then closed his eyes again.
"If you want to kill or chop me into pieces, please give me a good time."
It turned out that he regarded me as his enemy. Chen Xiaobei smiled lightly and said, "Your name is Lardo, and Yang Zhi is your brother, right?"
