Long Lin was very happy to see the Bird King back safely.
The Ghost King and the Bird King walked together, following behind Long Lin.
As he was about to reach the door, the Ghost King looked at the Bird King and said with a smile.
"Coming back so late, I guess you haven't eaten yet. I'll go to the kitchen and make you something to eat and drink."
The Bird King looked at the Ghost King with a hint of surprise.
"If you can? Come on, have some."
"Okay, I'll ask them to get you some."
The Ghost King finished speaking and walked directly into the distance.
The Ghost King was already very familiar with every part of the county government.
With the Bird King by Long Lin's side, there would be no impact if he left temporarily.
When the Bird King stepped into the room, Long Lin pointed to the seat next to him and motioned for the Bird King to sit down.
"Your Highness, please remain standing."
The Bird King felt that he was not qualified to sit here.
"Sit down, you've worked hard all the way, why are you still standing? Sit down and talk."
Long Lin spoke again, and Bird King sat down in his seat.
Long Lin smiled, the Bird King was still the same as before, no change.
"King Bird, did you encounter any danger along the way?"
The Bird King was stunned for a moment, and in his mind, he immediately thought of the terrifying strong man in black. Although there was no fight, the posture of that strong man had been imprinted in his heart.
"There was no danger. I escaped in time without taking action."
Long Lin nodded after hearing this. Although he didn't quite understand what he was saying, just stay away. There was only one person in the Bird King. If something happened, he might not even be able to find a place to collect the bones.
"You should rest for a while. When you feel better, tell me what happened after you have been walking for so long."
"Your Highness, I'm not tired. I'll talk now."
"No rush, you drink some water first. The Ghost King is going to get the food and wine. We will drink and chat later."
In Long Lin's heart, he actually wanted to understand urgently.
But at this time, he felt that he should be more considerate of his subordinates.
Although these people were arranged by his father to protect him, people's hearts are full of flesh and blood. Only by being kind to others first can you get kindness from others.
Of course, some people are wicked, and our ancestors are people who have lost their conscience. These people will definitely only get more evil in return.
...
The Ghost King took some wine and food and came to the house. After several servants put down the wine and food, they decisively left the place.
The Ghost King put down his drink and walked outside.
Long Lin poured himself wine. He had eaten and was not hungry.
"King Bird, eat it while it's hot. Don't wait for it to cool down."
"Then...your highness, I will eat it."
After the bird king finished speaking, he picked up the chopsticks and started eating.
He also poured himself some wine and drank a little while eating.
The Bird King ate very quickly and put down his chopsticks after a while.
"Your Highness, okay, I'm full and I can talk now."
Long Lin sat up straight and nodded.
"Your Highness, after I followed those people away, I followed them at night and rested in the dark during the day. I originally thought that these people would not go too far, but I didn't expect that I would follow them all the way and reach Daizhou directly.
.”
"Goed to Daizhou?"
Long Lin raised his eyebrows and said something confused.
Now, he completely understood why the Bird King had been gone for so long.
He had always thought that the Bird King was following those people in Shizhou. Unexpectedly, he would go to Daizhou.
"Yes, Your Highness, you went to Daizhou."
Bird King replied firmly, took a sip of wine and continued talking.
"They guarded the box very strictly along the way. I couldn't do anything on my own. In order not to disturb those people, I could only follow them all the way. After arriving in Daizhou, these people drove into a huge courtyard.
middle."
When Long Lin heard this, he nodded.
He had an impression of those people, and when he acted in the middle of the night, he had the impression that there was something wrong with these people.
Out of curiosity, he let the Bird King chase him.
I originally thought that with the Bird King's skills, he would be able to return in a few days, but I didn't expect that it would take so long.
"Is this courtyard very big?"
When the Bird King heard this, he immediately nodded firmly.
"It's very big, it can be said to be very big. The courtyard is overgrown with weeds. It doesn't look like someone lives there all year round, but it is such a huge courtyard, and those people live in it.
I originally thought that these people would just stay temporarily and continue on their way after resting, but this time, these people did not, they just stayed in the courtyard and put the boxes in the house."
Long Lin picked up the wine glass and took a sip.
"In a compound, boxes are put into the house. Are they strictly guarded? If they are negligent at this time, you will have a chance."
After hearing this, the Bird King smiled bitterly and shook his head.
"Your Highness, I originally thought the same. I thought these people should have arrived at the place and they would definitely not guard the box as closely as before, but they didn't. They were even more strict than before.
In this way, I stayed outside every day and waited for a long time. From then on, nearly twenty waves of people came one after another, all with the same boxes and the same people. The densely packed carriages all drove into the courtyard.
middle.
The whole row of houses was almost filled with boxes, and there were more and more people there, so I could only be cautious and become more cautious."
Long Lin was stunned immediately. What happened?
What's going on? How come so many people transported the boxes there at the same time? Is it a private businessman? A transfer station?
"Then what? Did someone change the box and transport it away?"
After hearing this, the Bird King looked bitter and shook his head.
"No, Your Highness, something strange happened after that."
"Oh? What kind of strange thing?" Long Lin was very curious.
The Bird King took a deep breath and sighed.
"After more than twenty waves of people arrived, the originally large courtyard began to look less spacious, and all the rooms inside were basically occupied, either with boxes placed or people living there.
A few days later, one night, suddenly, several people came from outside. These people wrapped themselves up tightly. After arriving, they spoke a few words to the people inside, and then walked directly towards the house.
"
After the Bird King said this, he paused and looked at Long Lin.
After hearing this, Long Lin asked immediately.
"Who are they? What did they say?"
"They are Huns. They are all talking in Huns. I didn't understand them."
After the Bird King finished speaking, Long Lin's expression changed instantly.
"What? Huns?"
"Yes, if these people hadn't spoken, I probably wouldn't have been able to hear them, but it's definitely true. They were speaking in Hun dialect and were not from the Central Plains. Although their voices were not high-pitched, I still heard them."
Long Lin was stunned on the spot, his eyes gradually narrowed.
If it was the Huns, then he probably knew that the Huns must have come here to buy those weapons.
If you want to buy weapons, you must first send the money.
This transaction has been going on for many years, and the people behind it and the Huns must be very familiar with each other.
The answer to what is in those boxes is probably already coming out.
