Chapter 509 Kidnapping Fan Wencheng

Tang Daxuan, Gu Mancang and Houhou left Shengjing and headed for the fields outside the city.

Along the way, when there were fewer passers-by, Gu Mancang finally couldn't hold himself back and said, "How about we run away and take this opportunity to run back to Daming."

"No, I haven't found my brother yet." Tang Daxuan was walking in front. Hearing Gu Mancang's words, he turned back and denied.

"Brother, I'm anxious for you. What I mean is, how about we run away together after we find your brother?" Upon hearing this, Gu Mancang remembered that he had an older brother named Tang Ao, and said embarrassedly.

"Don't think about running away. We have to report back to the house every day. Besides, with our two legs, can we escape from Jianlu's control area?" Monkey shook his head and persuaded. He thought this was very unrealistic.

"Then why, aren't you just pretending to be a grandson in Na Fangu's house every day because you are looking forward to the day when you can move freely?" Gu Mancang looked at the monkey with dissatisfaction.

Tang Daxuan turned around and glanced at Gu Mancang again, and said with a bitter look on his face: "Pretending to be a grandson? How much do I pretend to be, but you don't want to please that fan dog. Every time I go out of my way to flatter him, just think about it.

I am ashamed of my ancestors."

When the other two heard this, they were silent. Previously, they relied on the strength of the grain storehouse to sustain the three of them through that period of hard work.

Now, relying on Tang Daxuan's humility, the three of them were allowed to move freely one day.

After a while, the monkey asked: "Daxuan, if you find your brother, have you thought about what to do next?"

Tang Daxuan had obviously considered it. He replied to the monkey: "I'll just say that he knows how to forge cannons, and let Fan Gou get the big brother out first."

"It's unrealistic. What if Fan Gou went to report Jianlu first, or asked some questions about cannon casting first?" Monkey shook his head and was not optimistic.

While they were talking, several wild dogs suddenly rushed out of a small forest next to them. They didn't even bark, but stared at them with their fierce eyes.

When Gu Mancang saw him, he went crazy with his teeth and claws for a while because of his size. The other two people also picked up stones on the ground and threw them at them to scare them away.

The monkey watched the group of wild dogs burrowing into the woods, and sighed: "They are all used to eating human flesh, and they want to eat us."

Tang Daxuan also said bitterly: "If I don't have any guys, I'll kill them and eat them."

After he finished speaking, he asked again: "Monkey, what do you think we should do?"

The monkey was silent for a while before replying: "Actually, in my opinion, escaping is unrealistic. Liaodong was killed by the Jianbu and there was no chicken crow for thousands of miles. With only two legs and a lack of food, it is impossible to escape.

There is only one hope..."

"Take Thief Fan as a hostage and run away?" Upon hearing this, Gu Mancang couldn't help but express his thoughts.

Tang Daxuan was shocked by his bold suggestion. Is this okay?

"Thief Fan's skills are not low, I'm afraid we are no match for him." Monkey also shook his head in denial.

"What are you afraid of? Several of his loyal servants were either killed by the Jianlu or the Ming army. As long as we see the right time and strike, we can keep them safe." Gu Mancang became more and more confident as he spoke.

Tang Daxuan didn't agree very much. He said to Gu Mancang: "Don't look at it on the surface that he trusts us, but in fact he is on guard against us. Not only are there many places in the house that we cannot enter, but now he has sent us out to find the person who made the cannon.

But they only gave me dry food that was too little for even one meal, and I had to go home every day to find out."

When Gu Mancang heard this, he sighed. The prerequisite for his method must be that the thieves trust them. It can only succeed without taking precautions.

"Unless we find the person who made the cannon and make this contribution for him, we can gain his trust." Tang Daxuan immediately added.

After hearing this, Monkey's heart moved, and he hesitated to speak, but finally did not say anything. However, because he was walking at the end, the other two did not see it.

At this time, when we arrived at the fields, there were many Han people in ragged clothes working in the fields in front of us.

The three of them looked at each other, then walked over to the Jianlu supervisor on one side, took out their badges, nodded and bowed to explain their reasons, and after receiving approval, they walked towards the group of Han people and loudly asked in Chinese if they knew anyone who could cast cannons.

As he got closer, Tang Daxuan saw that these people were all skinny and dying from hunger, but he looked at the three of them with hatred.

He sighed helplessly, took out his share of food from his arms, and then said: "If anyone wants to know the whereabouts of a person named Tang Ao, I will give him this share of food."

The eyes of the group instantly turned to the food in his hand, staring motionlessly. Unfortunately, no one spoke, indicating that none of them knew the news about Tang Ao.

Monkey looked at the group of people on the side, thinking that if he got to this point, would he not be able to hold on and explain his identity to Jianlu to change his stutter?

After a while, the three of them reluctantly left the group. As they walked further away, the sharp-eared monkey heard someone in the group saying: "When Master Wang arrives, it will be these people who

When a thief is crowned."

"It seems that the news of Master Wang's victory has spread throughout Liaodong." Monkey said suddenly.

Gu Mancang turned to look at the monkey, a little curious as to why he suddenly said this.

So the monkey told what he had just heard. Tang Daxuan on the side listened and suddenly said: "No wonder Jianlu couldn't find the man who made the cannon. It turns out that other Han people are just like us, and they have no idea about Master Wang's existence."

I hope. Let us Han slaves come out to look for us now, I am afraid that we will be closer to the Han slaves."

When the monkey heard this, he nodded secretly in his heart, isn't it because he has that hope?

The large-scale appearance of the Mongolian Tatars and the beginning of food rationing were all due to the victory of the Ming army.

Good things don't go out, but bad things spread thousands of miles. The boring chatter of the Jianlu people was heard by the Han slaves who understood the Lu language, and the news spread quickly, giving hope to the Han people in Liaodong and looking forward to the early arrival of Master Wang.

With this hope, no Han Chinese with any sense of shame would betray their dignity to Jianlu and abandon their ancestors.

The three of them stood in unison and looked to the southwest where Daming was, wondering when they would see the fiery red shirt.

In the past, I looked down upon those military leaders to some extent. But now, I am extremely looking forward to their appearance.

What they did not expect was that the hopes of the Han slaves in Liaodong would be severely dealt a blow not long after, thinking that the Ming army's victory was just a flash in the pan.

Tang Daxuan and his companions searched for many days, but there was no news about his eldest brother, and he couldn't help but feel depressed.

But someone in the capital just laughed because someone else was in a low mood.

After he finished laughing, he said: "Although those missionaries were respectful to me on the surface, they probably kept cursing me, the initiator, as Satan."

Xu Guangqi looked at him, shook his head speechlessly, and then said: "Master Hou, let's talk about business."
