Returning to the room and sitting down again, Changsheng began to ask the visitor about Zhang Shan's recruitment of new troops. The reason why he asked these questions was to confirm how much this person knew about Zhang Shan and Zhang Mo.
What Ling Changsheng didn't expect was that this person actually knew some of the details of recruiting soldiers, answered them fluently, and knew everything about them.
Hearing what this man said, Chang Sheng took the opportunity to think quickly under the pretense of thinking about how to supply military supplies next. The reason why this man came here pretending to be Zhang Mo was undoubtedly to confirm whether he knew about the existence of the Dragon Vein Map.
Although Zhang Mo and I don't get along day and night, we know each other well. If the other party pretends to be Zhang Mo, he will take a lot of risks, and a lot of preparations must be made in advance. At least he must be familiar with Zhang Mo's words and deeds before meeting him. No flaws will be revealed later.
The Dragon Vein Atlas incident occurred a few days ago. This person did not have enough time to observe and imitate Zhang Mo's words and deeds. There is only one reasonable explanation for why he knows Zhang Mo's situation and the recruitment situation very well, and that is that this person originally Lurking next to Zhang Mo and Zhang Shan.
There is such a spy hiding around Zhang Shan and Zhang Mo, but Zhang Shan and his sister know nothing about it. This is a terrible thing. If you let this person go, it will be equivalent to laying a huge secret behind Zhang Shan and Zhang Mo. Hidden danger.
At this moment, the officer who had been sent out to buy fruits came back and brought back some fruits.
In order not to alert others, Changsheng did not dare to show any abnormality, so he washed the fruits himself and delivered them to the visitor.
It's already difficult to find out that the other person is not really Zhang Mo, but the most difficult thing is to weigh the pros and cons and make a decision in a very short period of time, because there are pros and cons whether you keep this person or let him go.
The relationship between Changsheng and Zhang Mo is not a secret. Zhang Mo was originally his uncle, and later he was granted marriage by the emperor. The relationship between the two became very subtle. Later, Changsheng was not in a hurry to speak, and hid his love by eating fruits. Embarrassing, in fact, eating fruit to cover up his embarrassment is just an illusion to confuse the other person, and its real purpose is to buy himself time to think.
From the current point of view, the purpose of the other party's trip should be to determine whether he knew about the dragon vein map. However, if you just simply confirm whether he knows about the dragon vein map, the price the other party has to pay seems to be a bit high, because sooner or later he will have to meet the real Zhang Mo. As long as he meets Zhang Mo, he will wake up and know that someone has impersonated Zhang Mo. Moreover, the counterfeit person knows Zhang Mo's situation very well. By then, the two of them may deduce that the counterfeit person is lurking next to Zhang Mo, and may even guess who this person is.
This is extremely disadvantageous for the counterfeit person, because when that day comes, this person will no longer be able to lurk around Zhang Mo. To put it bluntly, the other person pretends to be Zhang Mo and comes to meet him today, and the price he pays is that he will not come to see him again in the future. He can no longer lurk around Zhang Mo, and all the previous efforts will be in vain.
The dragon vein map is extremely important to the Japanese, so the Japanese want to confirm that the dragon vein map has not been leaked at all costs. It seems reasonable to think so, but he still feels that the price paid by the other party is a bit high. To know someone who can imitate Zhang Mo A lifelike person will be of great use in the future. It is such a pity that it is exposed and wasted so easily. You cannot deceive yourself and others into believing anything that is not in line with common sense.
Under what circumstances would it be reasonable for the other party to come over to see him despite exposing his identity? If you think about it carefully, there are two possibilities. One is that the Japanese already know that the Dragon Vein Map has been stolen, the real map is in his hand, and the other party came here for the map. Another possibility is that the Japanese did not know that the Dragon Vein Atlas had been switched, and came here to confirm that he did not know about the matter and kill him.
Both of these possibilities are possible, because the Dragon Vein Map was originally in the hands of the Japanese. He was not sure whether other Japanese besides Iga Mitsuko had seen the map. If so, it would be over and the secret would definitely be exposed. . To take a step back, even if no one has seen the map, and there are experts among the Japanese who have a sharp eye and find out through certain details that the map is a forgery, it will be over.
As for what kind of situation it is, it is still unclear. It needs to be further confirmed by the person's next words and actions.
After eating the fruit, Changsheng stood up and said, "Uncle Master, Master Ni asked me to prepare the magic weapons for the eight real people who were escorted earlier. Let's go to Taiping Inn to get them back."
"I'm a little tired from traveling during the day, so I won't go there." The visitor said casually.
"Oh," Changsheng asked, "Uncle Master, how long do you plan to stay here this time?"
"I came here just to see you. I am busy with military affairs. I will leave early tomorrow morning." The person said.
"If you don't go, I won't go either. I'll have someone go get the magic weapon back." Changsheng turned around and went out. After walking out of the courtyard, he first spoke loudly and asked the night watchman to inform the kitchen to prepare dinner, and then hurried to the rest room. One is located in the east courtyard.
At this time, Yu Yi was chanting sutras behind closed doors. She could hear Chang Sheng's footsteps and knew he was coming. She got up and opened the door before he knocked.
"After they escaped from Dali Temple Prison a few nights ago, you followed them. When they escaped, did they go straight to the west or to the northwest?" Changsheng asked in a low voice.
"Towards the northwest." Yu replied in a low voice.
Chang Sheng frowned after hearing Yu Yi's words, "Is there a big locust tree along the way?"
"It seems so." Yu nodded.
Changsheng's heart became heavier and heavier. When the other party escaped, he didn't forget to take a look at the area where the big locust tree was. If he couldn't see the body, he was bound to become suspicious. Once the other party became suspicious, he would do everything possible to confirm it.
"Go to Taiping Inn to find Song Cai and bring a few things back. Yang Kai should be there too. If he is there, ask him to send the things to my room." Changsheng didn't dare to worry about someone peeping from a distance. After staying too long, he turned around and left.
Chang Sheng was thinking quickly on the way back to the backyard. He had previously denied that he knew the Dragon Vein Map. This move might make the visitor suspicious, suspecting that he had noticed something strange. However, on second thought, it probably wouldn't be the case, because even if the Dongchuang incident happened, , Takeda Mayumi will never tell the truth to the Japanese, because Takeda Mayumi knows very well that once he tells the Japanese that the map is in his hands, the Japanese will definitely be disadvantageous to him.
Back in the room, the two continued to sit and talk to each other. The visitor rarely spoke actively. Most of the time, Chang Sheng was talking. In order to numb this person, Chang Sheng did not show it in an embarrassing and blunt manner, but complained to him, just He said that he was physically and mentally exhausted from holding two jobs, and that he couldn't stand the intrigues in the officialdom. If he hadn't stayed in the Ministry of Household Affairs to provide military supplies for the new army, he would have stayed away from the court and returned to being a leisurely cloud and wild crane.
Not long after, the food was delivered. Even though he was worried, Changsheng still managed to eat two bowls of rice. The visitor didn't eat much and only drank a few mouthfuls of rice porridge.
At the second watch, Yang Kai came back and brought back a baggage. The baggage naturally contained less important magic weapons selected according to his requirements.
Changsheng did not open the baggage, but put it on the chair next to him, then stood up and said, "Uncle, it's getting late. You should go to bed early. I live in the north room. If you need anything, you can call me anytime." .”
"Don't hurry," the visitor got up and walked to the bedside, opened the bag, took out a wooden box and came back, "Not long ago, I got a string of Liuzhu. According to the holder, it is the peach of the Nine Heavens Immortal Peach. The cores are connected in series, and each peach core has Tai Chi patterns on its own, and the fragrance is fragrant. I give it to you."
Changsheng was shocked when he heard this. There must be something strange about the box in this person's hand, and it is very likely to contain a deadly hidden weapon.
Even though his heart was tense and solemn, Changsheng still pretended to be curious and reached out to take it, "Nine Heavenly Immortal Peach?"
In order to prevent the wooden box from facing him, Changsheng opened the box "impatiently" without waiting for it to be in front of him. What he didn't expect was that there was no hidden weapon in the box, and it turned out to be a string of strange peach stones. There are twelve Lian beads in total, corresponding to the twelve thunder gates of Taoism.
"But the smell is so fragrant?" the visitor asked casually.
Changsheng took out the string of flowing beads and sniffed it, and there was indeed a strange aroma.
While sniffing, Changsheng discovered that this aroma was not a single aroma, but a mixture of various aromas. The source of the aroma should come from some plants and trees he had never seen before. As for the function of the aroma, currently There is no way to feel it yet.
Although he didn't know what consequences this strange aroma would bring, Chang Sheng already knew that the other party's trip was not just to confirm whether he knew the dragon vein map, but had other intentions.
As long as the other party has other intentions, the matter cannot be resolved. The other party will not leave until he achieves his goal, and no matter what purpose the other party has, he cannot let the other party succeed.
Thinking of this, he stopped hesitating and instead took the initiative to take action, "Uncle Master, this is indeed..."
Before he finished speaking, Changsheng took action...
