In Jiangnan City, the waiter carried a food tray to the second floor and knocked on the door.
"Guest, your meal is ready."
"Please come in."
The waiter pushed open the door and entered. Long Chen was sitting cross-legged inside, meditating.
The waiter came in, closed the door, and put the food on the table.
"Sir, there is news from Jiangtou Village."
The waiter in the store handed over the secret report. This waiter was from the West Factory, and he passed on all the information.
Long Chen received the secret report, which said that he had followed five people to Jiangtou Village and probably took a boat down the river.
Long Chen walked this route. As long as he entered the river, there were many places where he could go ashore, so he couldn't choose the place to ambush in advance.
"Let the brothers set up ambushes in Feiyu Town and Youlong Town, and be quick!"
The waiter immediately went downstairs to deliver the message.
The boat departed from Jiangtou Village. The river was so long that the followers could disembark anywhere. It was impossible for Long Chen to set up defenses along the river.
After leaving Jiangtou Village, the first place you arrive is Feiyu Town, and twenty miles downstream is Youlong Town. The water flow in this section is gentle.
If the followers come ashore in this section, they will be surrounded and killed.
If they don't come ashore, Long Chen will intercept the passenger ship. The gentle water is also conducive to intercepting and killing them.
After taking a sip of water, Long Chen immediately went downstairs, put a piece of silver on the counter, and Long Chen immediately rode upstream.
Soon, Long Chen arrived at Youlong Town.
This town is very lively, with fishermen fishing in the river and people doing business and farming on the shore, each busy with his own business.
This area has been controlled by the Zhou Dynasty, and there is no threat of war. You don't have to worry about war.
This is the time when the sun is shining.
Long Chen didn't wear a hat to protect himself from the sun, it would be too eye-catching.
When they arrived at Youlong Town, Long Chen entered a liquor store.
The bartender came over and greeted warmly: "Guest, what would you like to drink?"
Long Chen said: "Have a bowl of wine that will make you drunk."
The bartender smiled and said, "Guest, you can get drunk with the wine we have here."
Long Chen said: "I'll get drunk after just one bowl."
The bartender's eyes moved slightly and he said, "That's very valuable."
Long Chen took out a dozen coins from his sleeve and said, "I'll get drunk after just one bowl."
The bartender immediately took the money and said, "This wine is at the back. Guests can come with me."
Long Chen got up, went to the backyard, entered a room, closed the door, and the bartender said, "Young man, I have met King Wu."
Long Chen asked: "Is there any news?"
The bartender said: "Not yet, but it will be soon. I will definitely be here before noon."
Counting the time, if you don't see her by noon, she's gone.
In ancient times, message transmission was inconvenient. Even if a flying eagle could pass a message quickly, it wouldn't be much faster.
"Okay, you prepare a boat. If there is no news at noon, I will go to the river to intercept it."
The bartender immediately went to do it, and Long Chen was waiting in the backyard.
Feiyu Town.
He Juntao disguised himself as a fish seller and walked along the riverside carrying a basket.
A passenger ship with the word "zhou" written on the sail.
This was the boat on which the five people accompanying him were riding. He Juntao immediately walked to a stall, put down the basket, and said, "I'll give you this fish at a cheaper price."
The stall owner took one look at the fish and said, "If your fish is not good, I don't want it."
He Juntao glanced at the boat that was about to dock and said, "It's coming. Let the brothers prepare. Don't take action, just follow!"
Long Chen had ordered that no one should fight with his entourage, because their cultivation level was very high, and those from Xichang would die if they did anything to them.
The stall owner immediately said: "Okay."
He Juntao walked to the pier with a basket in his arms. The stall owner put down his sharp knife and went back to the house to greet everyone to prepare.www.81zw.????m
pier.
The Zhou family's boat slowly docked, and a group of passengers got off the boat.
He Juntao walked to the pier carrying a basket and shouted: "Buy some fresh river fish and take them back to your mother-in-law and children."
The passenger hurriedly walked down, saying as he walked: "It's so damn unlucky that someone died."
"That's right. Three of them died suddenly."
"Boss Zhou was the most unlucky to die on his ship."
"It's nothing unlucky. Just throw it into the river. Who cares if it goes beyond the boundaries of the Great Zhou Dynasty."
He Juntao felt bad. Someone died on the ship, maybe someone from his side.
After waiting for a while, no entourage was seen disembarking from the ship, and no one of his own was disembarking. He Juntao immediately grabbed a passenger and asked: "Brother, my brother came back by ship, why is he missing?"
The passenger saw He Juntao looking strange and asked: "What does your brother look like?"
He Juntao said: "There is a blue birthmark on my left ear."
The passenger's expression changed and he said, "Oh, your brother died on the ship. He suddenly vomited blood and died."
He Juntao secretly screamed that something was wrong, and something happened.
"Where is my brother's body?"
The passenger said: "It was thrown into the river. It scared away five people. Those five people were also very powerful. They actually jumped from Boss Zhou's boat to the Li family's boat."
That is to say, after they discovered that they were being followed and killed the spies, they changed boats on the river.
Their cultivation level is very high, so it is not difficult to change boats on the river.
"My poor brother..."
He Juntao pretended to sob and ran to the stall with the basket in hand.
The passenger shook his head and sighed: "What a miserable life..."
He Juntao entered the stall's room and immediately said: "Immediately Flying Eagle sent a message to Longzhen, and they changed to the Li family's boat and ran away."
His subordinates immediately flew to Longzhen to spread the word.
Youlong Town.
Long Chen had been waiting in the backyard, and the bartender hurried in and said, "They changed to the Li family's boat and may have gone down the river."
Everything is just a possibility and can only be inferred from the information and cannot be determined.
This interception mission is very troublesome and involves luck. If you happen to encounter it, you can intercept it midway. If you miss it, it means you are lucky.
Long Chen immediately went to the dock, and the bartender brought two people with good water skills on board.
A speedboat headed to the center of the river, waiting for passing passenger ships.
Long Chen waited until the end of noon in the middle of the river, and finally saw the Li family's boat.
This is a cargo ship, not a passenger ship.
Seeing the Li family's sail, the bartender was overjoyed. Long Chen jumped up and flew onto the Li family's cargo ship alone.
When the ship owner Li Wangcai saw Long Chen flying over, he exclaimed: "Damn it, why are there so many people who can fly today!"
Long Chen landed lightly on the boat, holding a three-foot wooden sword in his hand.
"This... hero, are you taking a boat or something?"
The boat owner Li Wangcai didn't know what Long Chen meant. If he said he was robbing the river, he was holding a wooden sword.
If not, why did you fly over?
This confused the ship owner Li Wangcai.
Long Chen didn't notice the dangerous aura and asked: "Five people boarded your boat on the way, where are they?"
Boat owner Li Wangcai said: "They... have landed."
Ashore?
Long Chen thought to himself: You are smart, change the boat halfway, and then go ashore halfway.
"Where did you land?"
Long Chen asked, and the boat owner Li Wangcai was startled and said: "In front of Zhangwu Village, we just got off the boat."
Zhangwu Village is about five miles away from Youlong Town. From Zhangwu Village to the south, you only need to go south for more than fifty miles to enter the boundary of Beiling City, where Tong Yuan is guarding.
The bartender rowed a boat over, but Long Chen ignored it and flew off the cargo ship, stepping on the river water back to the shore.
The boat owner Li Wangcai was shocked: "God, he can actually fly on the river water!"
