At this time, Li Rufeng would be shocked if he heard their conversation. These are not ordinary horse thieves, they are clearly a group of rebel thieves. The leader is called a general and has jurisdiction over various battalions, including the Jingdong battalion. What's more important is that there are dedicated horse herders, and maybe there are workshops for casting weapons somewhere.
In fact, Li Rufeng was eavesdropping outside the window. After he took the opportunity to escape, he did not go to Fang Lingyan immediately because he found that Mr. Zheng was so secretive and his martial arts seemed to come from a famous master. There must be some extraordinary origin.
Moreover, although he wanted to leave, he had to know the outcome here before sneaking away. If Wang Yisi was really beaten to death, it would be kind to collect their bodies and send a message back. After all, it is not in line with his style to put others in danger for his own purposes. Even though Wang Yisi and the others are just a group of bandits, these bandits did not kill themselves when they could kill themselves.
Tuanfeng's pier is not far from the town, even at the end of the street. Li Rufeng hurriedly wrote a note and handed it to a fisherman by the river, asking him to deliver it immediately to Fang Lingyan from Jiangshanyue in Hankou. He turned around again and saw the two waiters in front of the butcher shop who looked like nothing was wrong. It was as if nothing had happened, but meat was still being sold, while two of Wang Yisi's subordinates were sitting next to the butcher's shop drinking tea, feeling suspicious. After staying in Tuanfeng for many years, he knew that Zheng Sanye's courtyard was behind this, so he quietly went around, climbed over the wall, found the house where they were, and eavesdropped outside the window. Fortunately, although Mr. Zheng is quite powerful in this area, he usually only brings a few assistants with him, and there are no guardians in the house.
It doesn't matter if you don't listen. Li Rufeng was really shocked when he heard this. "Chen Quanzhong, Xinghan Army, General, Jingdong Camp..." Suddenly he had an idea. At that time, Chen Youliang killed Xu Shouhui, proclaimed himself the King of Han, made his capital Wuchang, and later became Emperor of the Han. He was finally defeated by Emperor Taizu of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Yuanzhang. In this case, you are right, then Chen Quanzhong must be a descendant of Chen Youliang. He took the revival of the Han Dynasty as his own mission, gathered a group of people, established the Xinghan Army, appointed himself a general, and did unknown things.
Thinking of this, Li Rufeng became more and more curious, and immediately made up his mind to see how big a wave these rebels could make. He is not a foolish and loyal person, he just doesn't like the innocent people falling into miserable situations because of some people's selfishness. This was the case for him himself. During the Jingnan Campaign, his father served in the army, his home was occupied by a group of rebels, his mother was defiled, and his younger brothers and sisters died tragically. Only he escaped, and all this was because of the royal family. Caused by the struggle for power, one's own relatives suffered innocently.
After Wang Yisi and Zheng San finished talking about Li Rufeng, they talked about other tasks. The main thing was how to cooperate with the "Liantai Province" to sell the batch of tea to the Japanese pirates in exchange for a small amount of firearms. Of course, this also includes inquiring into government affairs, and responding to the upcoming investigations or even suppression due to the robbery of the tribute tea. Fortunately, he was not a general and did not have to worry about this annoying matter. He was secretly grateful.
If he hadn't heard these conversations, Li Rufeng would have almost forgotten about the government. This was obviously a major threat to this group of rebels. If they didn't deal with it well, they might be exposed and even lose all their previous efforts. He felt that he should do something Order something.
Suddenly, he thought of the Tianwan National Treasure. Yes, since Chen Quanzhong is a descendant of Chen Youliang, and Chen Youliang was previously a subordinate of Tianwan Emperor Xu Shouhui, then he might know something about the Tianwan National Treasure, and that's why he would value it so much. Jinshi Jing". But in this case, he had other purposes in the short term, and the batch of tea leaves must no longer be in Guanyin Mountain, so as not to lose the big for the small.
Just when Li Rufeng was struggling, he heard footsteps outside. He quickly ducked behind a pillar and saw a guy coming in from outside the courtyard, knocked on the door, and walked in quickly.
When Li Rufeng looked in through the small hole in the window again, he could only see the back of the guy. I saw Zheng Sanye looking at something at the boy, looking at it for a while and then handing it to Wang Yisi. The guy muttered softly for a while, then turned around to go out. Li Rufeng had no choice but to retreat, and he could vaguely hear the two people in the room laughing.
In this section, Li Rufeng didn't know what happened, but he had a vague feeling that something was going to happen. Unfortunately, there was someone in the courtyard, so I had to leave first. I gradually became uneasy. Could it be that my whereabouts had been discovered?
After all, Li Rufeng didn't expect that the fisherman by the river was from Jingdong Camp. As soon as he got the note, he copied a copy and sent it to Mr. Zheng, and then he slowly went to Hankou Jiangshan as Li Rufeng said. Yue, but when he arrived, he was already followed by the people sent by Mr. Zheng. Their mission was to kidnap Fang Lingyan and the others. This was what Mr. Zheng and Wang Yisi did after seeing the note. Secretly giving orders to a waiter, which Li Rufeng did not overhear.
At this time, Li Rufeng was drinking tea in the only teahouse in the town, watching a group of businessmen on the street downstairs pulling more than 20 boxes with horses, each box had two horses. What was in the box? ? He smiled self-consciously. What was in the box was none of my business. Wait, those horses seem to have been seen somewhere. He smiled again, aren't all horses like this? I really overthink it. As soon as he thought about it, he thought of Fang Lingyan. He wondered how she was doing and whether she had received his letter.
The group of merchants quickly disappeared on the street, and Li Rufeng finished drinking his tea. He took out a few coins and put them in the bottom of the bowl. He went downstairs and walked back to the butcher's shop. As he walked, he was thinking about something. His eyesight was not good enough, so he met Wang Yisi and the others head-on. This was just a town, and the bustling streets were not enough for him to hide immediately. However, the panic was only fleeting. Since he knew that Wang Yisi would not reveal his intentions first, he would definitely pretend to reunite with him after the chaos. And these were exactly what Wang Yisi thought of the moment he saw Li Rufeng.
As expected, Wang Yisi looked like he was overjoyed to meet again after a long absence. He took Li Rufeng's hand and looked up and down. "Oh, Brother Li, I'm worried to death. What you said about Butcher Zheng is really deceiving me."
The weasel paid New Year greetings to the chicken, but he didn't know that the chicken already knew what the weasel had done. Although Wang Yisi knew from the words of the fisherman that Li Rufeng had not left Tuanfeng, he did not expect that he eavesdropped on his words outside the window. I thought to myself: "This guy is quite honest, and he really came back to see us."
Seeing that Wang Yisi could pretend that nothing happened, Li Rufeng was a little impressed, and he also smiled and said: "Who says it's not the case? It's just bullying me. He actually dared to attack the three generals. He must have been subdued by the three generals." Alright?"
"That's right, haha... However, our general told us to be patient and bear with everything when we go out. After all, Zheng San is just a butcher and a brave man. It doesn't make any sense, so we let him go, like Li Why do you need to know someone like me like him?"
Li Rufeng was speechless by his high-sounding truth and could only nod his head and said: "That's right."
"Now, where should we go to wait for your friend?" Wang Yisi asked.
"This is really a problem. I have been searching in the town for a long time, but I haven't found it yet. Maybe they were delayed on the way and won't be able to come for a while. If the third general is willing to reward me, why don't we just play with him in this town? Whatever happens tomorrow, if there is no news tomorrow, we will find another way."
"That's fine, let's wait another day."
Li Rufeng did not know that Wang Yisi and Zheng San had already sent people to Hankou and suddenly rounded up Fang Lingyan and the other three, who were already on their way to Luotian.
