After listening to his words, Sima Wushuang and others immediately cheered up.
"Yes, the Taoist priest is right. Qingniu Mountain is a hundred miles away, and we will definitely be able to find new roads."
"Yes, up the mountain."
Everyone was noisy and ran towards the top of the mountain along the way.
After watching them walk away, Chen Xiaobei called people down, pulled up Sun Jian's body, and threw the rest into the ditch nearby.
"This is the murderer of Lidong. I have to take his head to pay homage to Brother Lidong."
After hearing Chen Xiaobei's words, Zhang Qian couldn't help but respect him in awe.
A mountain man has such chivalrous and courageous spirit, which is indeed worthy of admiration.
After waiting for a while, Chen Xiaobei stood up again and was about to go downhill when Zhang Qian stopped him, "Hey, brother, what do you want to do?"
Chen Xiaobei pointed to the distance, "I'm going to retrieve Brother Lidong's body."
Zhang Qian shook his head, "Brother, how could you not have your good brother? Why don't we have our good brothers? Ma Xiaoyi and the others were also killed in the wilderness."
"But, we can't take risks now. If we rush in and are ambushed by them, the situation will be passive."
"What do you mean?" Chen Xiaobei looked at him doubtfully.
Zhang Qian thought for a while, "I'll take two people to follow them and see where they are now."
"Don't worry, I will definitely help you bring Lidong back."
Chen Xiaobei hesitated for a moment, but finally nodded in agreement.
Zhang Qian and others are highly skilled in martial arts and can deal with each other when they encounter them, but he can only rely on the serial crossbow.
"Don't worry, I will definitely guard this place and never let anyone escape." Chen Xiaobei promised, patting his chest.
Thousands of miles away at this time.
Fengjia Town.
Liu Ziming had been calling for Ma Biao for a long time.
As soon as he saw Liu Ziming, he wiped away his tears and said, "Commander Ma, I have sworn a poisonous oath to the Marquis. Even if the Marquis does not give me a soldier, I will find the second son's coffin, otherwise I will... …”
Ma Biao patted Liu Ziming's shoulder lightly, "The reason why the Marquis didn't send someone to you is because he didn't want more people to know."
"Think about it, if this matter spreads, how much impact it will have on the reputation of the Marquis."
"That's why Mr. Hou spared no effort to transfer me back."
Liu Ziming nodded, "Master Ma, I understand."
"Come on and tell me what happened that day in detail."
Liu Ziming took Ma Biao out of Fengjia Town, came to the place where he was fascinated, and explained the matter in detail.
Ma Biao nodded repeatedly.
"Obviously you have been targeted for a long time. Which inn are you staying at?"
"Just, stay at that Gaopeng Inn."
Ma Biao nodded.
"You all wait here while I go."
Ma Biao beat Ma Rufei and returned to the town to the door of Gaopeng Inn.
Seeing that there was business coming to the door, the young man enthusiastically greeted him and helped him hold the horse.
Ma Biao walked into the inn, and the innkeeper, a dark-faced middle-aged man, came out with a smile.
"This man, please stay in the hotel."
Ma Biao nodded and threw out a piece of silver, "Come and have sex."
The shopkeeper was overjoyed and stepped aside, "Please come this way."
The shopkeeper took Ma Biao to the backyard, climbed to the second floor, and opened a guest room.
"Master, do you think this room is feasible?"
Ma Biao walked in with both hands, and the shopkeeper enthusiastically introduced behind him, "This room is transparent from north to south. It has sunshine during the day and no mosquitoes at night. I guarantee your satisfaction."
Ma Biao suddenly turned around, and a long sword was already placed on the shopkeeper's neck.
The shopkeeper was so frightened that he trembled and shook his hands wildly, "Master, you and I have no enmity in the past and have no enmity in recent times. Why are you doing this?"
"Let me ask you, a horse team stayed here overnight two days ago, pulling a coffin. Do you remember it?"
A trace of surprise clearly flashed in the shopkeeper's eyes, but it only flickered.
But even the slightest change in expression did not escape Ma Biao's eyes.
"I just want to know who you sold the information to?"
Looking at Ma Biao's cold eyes, the shopkeeper still wanted to pretend to be stupid, "Sir, I remember the cavalry team you mentioned, but they stayed for one night and then left. I don't know anything else."
I don’t know anything else. This sounds okay, but there is a problem. Ma Biao said coldly, "It seems that you know that something happened to them."
I.
The store manager also instantly realized that he had said the wrong thing and simply kept silent.
Ma Biao pressed his sword forward again, "If you don't say anything, don't blame me for being rude."
"I know, that person has a tough background. Are you afraid of getting into trouble?"
"Then let me tell you, those coffins contained relatives of the emperor. Did you commit the crime of killing the nine tribes? Did you offend him or the emperor? You should think carefully about it yourself."
Upon hearing this, the shopkeeper knelt down with a plop.
"It's a small confession, a small confession, it's all my fault for being confused."
Seeing him speak, Ma Biao took back his long sword and sat on the chair, "Tell me what's going on."
"The sun hadn't set that day, and the horse team carrying the coffin took up residence."
"When it was almost time to have dinner, Mr. Xue came. He gave me a piece of silver and asked me to secretly find out when the cavalry would set off tomorrow. I pretended to deliver water and heard them discussing that they would set off at dawn. Try to get back to the capital before dark."
"I told Mr. Xue."
"I don't know what happened next."
Ma Biao nodded, "Okay, then who is this Master Xue you are talking about?"
"Oh, his name is Xue Dahai. He is a gangster from our Fengjia Town. He makes a living by reselling information."
"I shouldn't be greedy for a moment and earn his money."
After listening to his words, Ma Biao stood up and said coldly.
"Take me to find this Xue Dahai. If what he says is different from what you said, then you will die."
"I don't dare, I don't dare lie." The shopkeeper was so frightened that he didn't even dare to speak out, and took Ma Biao out of the inn.
Walk a short distance along the street and turn a corner.
The shopkeeper pointed to the house at the end of the alley, "Xue Dahai lives there."
Ma Biao nodded, "Go and call the door."
The shopkeeper came forward tremblingly and knocked on the courtyard door several times, "Master Xue, Master Xue, are you awake? I am Gao Peng."
After shouting several times, there was finally a response from the yard.
"Old Gao, your name is Hun'er so early in the morning."
With a shout and a creak, the courtyard door opened, revealing a big, bald head.
"Lao Gao..." Xue Dahai said something, and Ma Biao raised his leg and kicked the kid hard on the chest. Xue Dahai was caught off guard, took a few steps back, and fell onto his back with a thud.
"You bastard..." Xue Dahai cursed and was about to stand up when Ma Biao's sword was already on his neck.
The boy was so frightened that he trembled and immediately changed his face, "This man has something to say, something to say."
