Chapter 138 The trace of the enemy has been discovered
Hiding in the deep mountains and dense forests, Chu Sanlang also felt unsafe.
He knew that the trouble he was causing this time was huge, bigger than the sky. It is no exaggeration to say that from the moment he robbed the great-grandson of the British Duke, he had provoked the entire Tang Dynasty’s powerful class and the Tang Dynasty’s invincible military.
.
Although the countdown to his life was destined to begin, he still wanted to take a few more breaths of air.
So Chu Sanlang decided to move. He wanted to change to a safer and more private place.
No need to guess, Weinan County is now surrounded by soldiers and horses from the imperial court like an iron barrel, and countless people are searching for him all over the mountains and plains.
At this time, their foothold was only more than twenty miles away from Ganjing Village. Chu Sanlang felt that it was not safe enough. If there were enough people on the other side and they used a wide-net search, it would not take much time to find this hiding place. It would only take three or two days.
It was exposed.
Moving overnight is the most correct choice. It is best to move outside Weinan County in one fell swoop to highlight the encirclement of the imperial troops.
At that time, you will have escaped. This delicate and stunning beauty in front of you, you can't help but enjoy it.
Seeing that the villain refused to give her clothes, and feeling Qiao'er trembling in her arms, Cui Jie's original fear suddenly disappeared. She didn't know where the courage came from, and suddenly said loudly: "You can't bully others too much! How can the child deserve this?
This disaster."
"Isn't it just a hostage? I am the daughter of the head of the Cui family in Qingzhou. In terms of origin and weight, I am no worse than a child. How about you keep me and send the child back?"
"Although the great-grandson of the British Duke has a noble status, he is also a big trouble for you. The revenge of the British Duke is not something you can bear. How about sending him back and me staying?":.
Qiao'er was startled and subconsciously hugged Cui Jie tightly and said, "Auntie, I won't leave, I want to stay with auntie."
Cui Jie rubbed his head, forced a smile and said, "Be good, Qiao'er, listen to your aunt."
Chu Sanlang looked at the two of them indifferently, unmoved by Cui Jie's proposal.
Cui Jie said something and gradually became less afraid. She looked directly at Chu Sanlang bravely and said: "You may not care about your life, but it is not bad to live for a few more days. Let the great-grandson of the British Duke be released."
, it will only benefit you, and will do no harm."
Chu Sanlang sneered: "I have a big bargaining chip in hand, why should I let one go?"
Cui Jie glanced at Qiao'er in her arms and said, "Because this chip is hot, you should understand what I mean."
"If I was afraid of burning my hands, why would I have robbed you in the first place?"
Cui Jie said coldly: "Ask yourselves, do you regret after kidnapping us? You cannot bear the anger of the British Duke. You may not care about your own lives, but what about your family members?"
Mentioning his family, Chu Sanlang's expression couldn't help but become a little angry: "Women, you'd better keep your mouth shut and don't make me murderous!"
Cui Jie bravely looked directly at him: "Sending the child back will do you no harm at all."
"I need you to teach me how to do things? If the imperial soldiers and horses really surrounded this place, it wouldn't be unfair if I dragged you on the road before I died." Chu Sanlang laughed.
Cui Jie's heart sank when she saw Chu Sanlang's resolute expression and no intention of compromise. She knew that no matter how much she persuaded or angered him, Chu Sanlang was determined not to let Qiao'er go.
Cui Jie had no choice but to take the next step: "Well, the child is very cold now, can you give me some clothes? It won't do you any good if he gets cold."
Chu Sanlang said coldly: "Bear with it, this is not your wealthy mansion, and you can't give me anything you ask for."
"It's okay to light a fire in the house, right?" Cui Jie said unwillingly.
Chu Sanlang sneered: "What are you planning again? Are you afraid that others won't find us when you light a fire deep in the dark forest? Let me tell you, if we are discovered, it will be impossible for you to survive. I will definitely do it before I die.
Kill you."

Lao Wei held a knife and led nearly twenty people from the Li family, hesitating on the rugged mountain road.
In this era, there were actually no roads at all in the mountains. The mountains and forests were all natural and sparsely populated.
You have to open the road yourself. Use a woodcutter to open the road, and chop it with each step, splitting the thorny jungle, so that the mountain road can continue.
Old Wei was already a bit old, and his body was not as strong as his younger counterpart. When he reached the mountainside, he was gasping for breath from exhaustion.
Buqu kindly suggested resting where he was, but Lao Wei flatly rejected it, gritting his teeth and continuing to open the way without giving up.
One of the soldiers couldn't help but said: "Mr. Wei, have we taken the wrong road? You see, this place is sparsely populated, and we have to use hatchets to open the way. This means that no one has been here at all, and it is impossible for bad guys to hide here.
here."
Old Wei sneered and said: "What does Guapi know? You are still young. The road in the mountains and forests is not seen with the eyes, but with the heart."
"What do you mean?"
Old Wei narrowed his eyes, looked around, pointed to an arm-thick elm tree not far ahead, and said, "Look at that tree."
"What?"
"From the bottom up, the third branch has signs of bending. Do you see it?"
Buqu couldn't help but argue: "There are many wild beasts in the mountains and forests, maybe they are passing by..."
"Look again, how high is the third branch from the ground? What kind of beast can get that branch? Unless a bear stands up and breaks the branch."
Bu Qu looked at it carefully and said, "About shoulder height... right?"
"That's right, shoulder height." Old Wei smiled slyly and said, "Does it look like someone raised his arm when passing by and broke the branch in order to clear the way? Is that reasonable?"
Bu Qu added: "Maybe it's really a bear that stood up, or maybe it's a woodcutter from a nearby village?"
Old Wei nodded: "Yes, any possibility is reasonable, but we cannot deny that this is a clue and a hope. It is better than looking around like a headless fly, right?"
The tribesmen were silent for a moment, and had to admit that Jiang was indeed smarter with age. The older he got, the more sophisticated he became. Old Wei's meticulous thoughts and observant eyes were indeed incomparable to young people like them.
"Weinan County must have been turned upside down. Wu Shaolang's son was kidnapped, and the gangsters couldn't escape. This place is more than 20 miles away from Zhuangzi. Four gangsters took a woman and a child and walked here based on their physical strength.
This is the limit, so I chose this mountain to search, not a random target."
Old Wei narrowed his eyes and patted Bu Qu's head: "Boy, don't underestimate your physical strength. In terms of experience and experience, you are still very young."
Buqu laughed: "That's right. If you can find Fifth Young Master's son, Mr. Wei, you will have made a great contribution. I will thank you in person, and we brothers will also take advantage of it."
Old Wei looked startled and sighed: "My old man... I haven't seen my old man with a golden face in a long time. Back then, I followed my old man out of the clouds and gave an order. We killed the enemy and charged into battle, sweeping thousands of armies... Think about that.
This period of time seems like just yesterday..."
There was a sudden pause in his steps, and Old Wei squatted down.
The tribesmen became nervous and put their hands on the handles of their knives: "What's wrong? Are there any wild animals?"
Old Wei shook his head and stared at the ground solemnly.
The tribe members looked curiously, but could not see any traces, but Old Wei stared at the wet mud in trance.
"Mr. Wei, what are you..."
Old Wei ignored him. After a long time, his face suddenly broke out into a smile. He pointed at a dent on the ground and said, "Look, what is that?"
Buqu looked at it carefully for a while, shook his head and said: "It's just a dent..."
Old Wei laughed, took off his shoes, and brought the edge of the sole close to the indentation. The tribesmen suddenly discovered that the curvature of the edge of the sole matched the indentation perfectly.
"This, this is..."
"These are shoe prints that I couldn't erase in time, haha, I caught them after all." Old Wei smiled happily.
Looking sideways at Buqu with a relaxed expression, Old Wei smiled and said: "Boy, tell me, do wild beasts wear shoes?"
"No, it won't be..." Buqu couldn't help but argue: "Maybe it's a woodcutter from a certain village?"
"No, it can't be a woodcutter," Old Wei said with a smile: "I didn't pay attention when I came here. Didn't I find shoe prints along the way? I only saw shoe prints here. What does it mean? It means that someone deliberately removed the shoe prints on the road.
Erase it, leaving no trace, except this one part."
“Who’s so sneaky that they need to erase their shoe prints?”
The people opened their eyes wide, and their expressions gradually became excited.
Old Wei looked up at the distant mountain top that fell into the clouds and mist, and said calmly: "I guessed it right, I am a veteran, but I am not old." Provide you with the fastest updates and free reading.:.
