Chen Liu looked at Tian Wen in surprise and asked in confusion, "Shopkeeper, if things take too long, I'd better go."
"A stall as big as Zuixianlou cannot leave you."
Tian Wen smiled and shook his head, "I have to do this, no one else can do it. By the way, the carrier pigeon I sent out will be sent to the Ma family compound if there is a reply."
After saying that, he took out a key from his sleeve and put it on the counter. "When ten radishes come back, you can ask the guys to make their own living. Just lock the door for me. Selling money these days is enough." If you divide the silver, it will be the last bit of my heart."
After Tian Wen finished speaking, he turned around and walked towards the backyard without waiting for Chen Liu to speak again. Looking at his retreating figure, Chen Liu was stunned for a long time, and finally raised his hand to wipe the tears from the corners of his eyes.
"Hey, shopkeeper, I'm afraid we've hit a snag."
Tian Wen returned to his residence and changed into ordinary blue cloth clothes.
Then Tian Wen took off the beard on his face, and it turned out to be a fake beard.
After taking off his beard, his whole appearance has changed a bit. Even if someone familiar walks towards him, it may be difficult to recognize him at a glance.
Tian Wen found another long sword from under the bed, took it in his hand and looked at it carefully, stretched out his hand to gently stroke the hilt, and sighed.
"I thought I would never touch you again in this life, but I didn't expect that I would have to let you, an old friend, go with me."
After saying that, he picked up his sword and walked out of the yard quickly.
Tian Wen walked along the street for about a mile, and there was a courtyard next to him.
Tian Wen didn't knock on the door, just opened the door and walked in.
There was a man in green clothes sweeping the floor in the yard. Seeing him come in, he asked very politely, "Master, who are you looking for?"
Tian Wen raised the sword in his hand and said loudly, "There is one river in the world, two rivers in Dacang, three sheep celebrate the Taiyue, and the four seas celebrate together."
As soon as these words came out, the man in green was stunned.
After a brief moment of astonishment, the expression he looked at Tian Wen became much more respectful, "May I ask what I call you?"
Tian Wen looked at this person, nodded slightly, and said loudly, "Princess Zhaoning's royal guard, Tian Wen."
As soon as he announced his home address, the man in green didn't speak anymore, but put his little finger in his mouth and blew a long whistle.
Soon four or five more people rushed out of the house.
The leader was a red-faced middle-aged man. He looked at Tian Wen. He was stunned for a long time before he came back to his senses. Taking a step forward, Doctor Liao knelt down on one knee and said, "Greetings to Guard Tian, Ma Han is willing to obey your orders."
Tian Wen nodded, this was exactly the result he wanted.
"Get ready. Follow me to Qingniu Mountain. The princess's mentor, Lord Lotus, may be in trouble."
Mahan stood up and clasped his fists again, "There is no need to make any special preparations. I will follow the princess' instructions and be ready to go. I can set off with you now."
Tian Wen nodded with satisfaction, "Okay, come with me."
Tian Wen's guess was correct, the Lotus Leader was indeed in a bit of a panic at this time.
If you can't go back from the steep slope, you have to find another way.
She was also smart, following the traces left by Liu Rumei and Ma Biao to find the location of Longyan.
Finding water in the mountains meant half the chance of survival.
After drinking some water, eating some dry food that I brought with me, and resting for a while, it was after noon that the scene became a little more alive.
The leader of Lotus Hua called several of his female disciples over.
"Jasmine, take the people and continue to find a way out. Remember to try not to act alone."
"It's limited to three days. Regardless of whether you find it or not, you must come back to me."
The strategy of the Lotus Master was right. The large group of people conserved their strength and sent small units out to find a way out.
But what she didn't expect was that the situation was much more serious than she expected.
After lunch, Ma Biao asked his men to continue resting while he hid in a small forest and stared at the opposite side.
In fact, he was also very worried, because he was only guarding a point on the Dragon King River for several dozen miles. If he crossed the river from other places, he would have no choice.
At this moment, I heard some movement behind me, and the Marshal Ma who was sent to deliver the message came back. Zhou Quan and dozens of others followed behind.
When Ma Biao and Zhou Quan met, they felt quite sympathetic to each other.
The two of them each stretched out their right fists, lightly punched each other, and then looked at each other.
Everything is in this slight smile.
"Commander Ma, Miss Liu means to trap the Lotus Master in the mountains as much as possible."
"With so many people, you have to look at the deployment."
Ma Biao nodded, glanced at the reinforcements he had brought, and suddenly saw Chen Dayong and the others.
He hurriedly pulled Zhou Quan two steps aside and lowered his voice and said, "Why did you bring the people here?"
"They are villagers from Hetou Village. The head of the village named Chen Xiaobei insisted on coming, and His Royal Highness also agreed."
"By the way, let them stay back when making arrangements."
Zhou Quan pointed behind him again.
"More than a dozen miles further, there is a narrow path there. I think it should be the only way to enter the mountain."
Ma Biao immediately understood what Zhou Quan meant, and he nodded with a smile.
"Okay, I'll do as you say."
While talking, Ma Biao and Zhou Quan came to Chen Dayong.
Ma Biao said very politely to Chen Dayong's armful of money, "There is something important, and I need your help."
Chen Dayong was very happy when he heard that he was assigned a task, "Okay, but I will follow the instructions of Military Advisor Ma."
Ma Bian pointed behind him in accordance with the thoughtful words just now, "Did you pass through a small intestine trail where you came from?"
Chen Dayong nodded, "Yes, yes, there was a period."
"That's the only way out of the mountain. The Dragon King River is so long. If we miss something, they have to go there."
Chen Dayong understood that he was going to guard the path of the sheep farm.
I remembered what Chen Xiaobei and Chen Dachun told me when I arrived, safety first, and staying away from Longwang River is always a good thing.
"Okay, then let's go back and guard the narrow path."
Seeing Chen Dayong lead the people away happily, Ma Biao gave Zhou Quan a thumbs up.
Zhou Quan's expression was not as relaxed as expected, "Okay, let's get down to business."
"Sima Wushuang has been captured. Sooner or later, the Imperial Master will know. Once he takes action again, it will be a fight to the death."
Ma Biao nodded, "Yes, Sima Wushuang is just a chess piece sent by the Imperial Master to test. The real killing move is not in Qingniu Mountain, but in the capital."
Zhou Quan nodded, and he fully agreed with Ma Biao's views.
"The prince also wants to unite with the princess. Only by trapping the Lotus Cult Master, the princess might sit down and have a good talk with the prince."
"After all, blood is thicker than water, so it is possible for the prince and the princess to join forces."
