Chapter 227

He forced himself to calm down and asked his subordinates to find an old hunter familiar with the mountains near Hejian to lead the way.

As for going to town?

No!

The location in the picture is outside the city, not inside the city. It's also a waste of time to go in.

But before that, he had to find out a problem. When did Meng Hun's people stuff these coarse cloth into the grain truck?

Not only did he wonder about this problem, but the cook in charge of transporting food was also confused.

In order to ensure the correct amount of grain, they will carefully check the grain truck every time they go to a place for repair.

Therefore, it is almost certain that there was no such strange coarse cloth on the grain truck before the last repair.

The retinue leader also knew this, so he didn't waste more in this regard, but scanned all the cooks with suspicious eyes.

He asked, "do any of you remember who approached these grain carts?"

This problem baffles people. A group of cooks can't help but face bitterly. There are too many people who can get close to the grain truck. Who still remembers.

One of the cooks was clever and asked, "if you report back to Jun ye, would it be when you were in the tea shop?"

There is a huge flow of people in a place like the post station and tea shop. It won't arouse suspicion if an ordinary looking person comes in.

But this was soon denied, and another Cook said, "you can't wrong people. When you repair, everyone is next to the grain truck. Where are the suspicious people? These things... Obviously came out of thin air..."

People in this era fear ghosts and gods. They often like to explain what they don't know with this divine reason.

The squire leader was upset and scolded, "nonsense, how can you believe the words of ghosts and gods? Think carefully, who is it?"

If no outsiders touch the grain truck and leave these things... Then the only reason is that the whole grain team has Meng Hun's insiders.

Come to this more reliable conclusion, the leader of the retinue has basically concluded the answer.

Many cooks shook their heads one after another, but some people suspected that it was Jiang Pengji who delivered tea, but this guess was not reliable, because in addition to Jiang Pengji, the landlady of the tea shop and the waiter also sent tea. Compared with the latter two, the former didn't seem to be close to the grain truck, so how can they stuff coarse cloth into the grain truck?

The cook looked at each other, nervous, afraid that the leader of the retinue suspected that they were ghosts.

The leader of the retinue scanned everyone's eyes and tried to find the ghost among them. Finally, everyone looked like an insider, and no one looked like an insider. He had no choice but to put this detail aside for the time being and prepare to transport the grain to the destination.

The old hunter who is familiar with the terrain is easy to find. After promising a lot of money, the other Party promised to lead the way.

But it's hard for those food carriers. The mountain road is steep and not suitable for food trucks.

Therefore, they can only give up the grain truck and choose to put the grain bag on their shoulders and send the grain up the mountain like a relay.

However, this mysterious joke seems to have just begun. Someone found a bamboo slip at the place where the map was drawn, which reads——

[that's very obedient, but your speed is disappointing. I can't wait to take the first step and send food to this place. It's a punishment for your inefficiency. Meng hunliu, the traitor of Meng family.]

Seeing the bamboo slips and a piece of coarse cloth pressed under them, the face of the squire leader turned completely black to the bottom of the pot.

At this time, a soldier hardened his head and asked him, "boss, what should I do now?"

Hu was breathing heavily from his head. Although he didn't carry food, the mountain road was steep, and he was wearing some heavy armor. Naturally, he was so tired that he was sweating heavily and his breath was unstable. "What else can I do? Follow the above words --"

Meng Da is still holding Meng Hun's hand. If they don't dare to do so, Meng Hun will be angry and kill Meng Da without stopping. They will cry at that time! For the sake of the little ancestor's life, they can only be obedient.

Fortunately, the destination shown in the second picture is not far from here. The old hunter told them that it would be there in about a quarter of an hour.

[ah! I've come quite soon this time, but I've left. It's interesting to see you delivering food. But I haven't seen enough. I want to see Meng Da and send food here. Meng hunliu, the traitor of Meng family.]

At this time, the squire leader was angry and hit his fist on the trunk beside him, making a dull thump.

The old hunter looked at the picture and said in fear, "this military master, this place can't go."

"Why can't you go?" The squire leader asked coldly.

The old hunter's hands trembled, and he wanted to cry without tears. He thought it was a beautiful job to lead the way, but now it's hard to do.

"If you tell Jun ye, this place is a bandit stronghold. I looked at it from a distance when I used to hunt. There are all murderous animals living in it... If I went to this place..." the old hunter hesitated and said the reason.

The retinue leader smiled coldly and said, "just take your way. Don't talk about other nonsense."

It's just a bandit stronghold. He has so many people that he can't deal with it?

However, he didn't understand one thing. Why did Meng Hun send grain to the bandit stronghold by name?

Is there an ambush there?

Thinking of this, Hu was uneasy from head to head and sent a clever soldier to explore the bottom.

The soldier came back soon and said, "the bandit stronghold is empty."

No one?

The squire leader was confused at this time, but he had to bite the bullet.

"However, my subordinates found this at the gate of the stronghold..." the soldier respectfully presented a piece of bamboo slips and coarse cloth.

Seeing this, the squire leader has formed a reflective uneasiness, for fear that it is something to play tricks on others.

When I opened it, it was Meng Hun's words again.

[the food is in the courtyard of the bandit stronghold, and Meng Da's little boy is in the place shown in the picture. Don't try to play tricks, otherwise his life will be worried. Meng hunliu, the traitor of Meng family.]

The retinue leader calmed down, smiled coldly and said, "shrinking turtle, coward!"

If he had not been afraid of Meng's majesty, how could Meng Hun confuse and toss these things?

Aren't you afraid of being surrounded and hanged by his soldiers when the two sides hand over food?

A greedy thing!

With a sneer in his heart, the leader of the retinue raised his hand, "you send food here, and some people will go with me to save the second husband."

Since Meng Hun is so greedy and afraid of death, it can be seen that the other party doesn't have much confidence in his hands.

If you take advantage of the situation to kill them by surprise, you will take Meng Hun's head back to work at that time, which is a great credit!

There was no intention to kill Meng Hun, but the clay figurine was angry when the other party killed him.

"Yes!"

Although he was tired from tossing, the soldier answered loudly with his head held high and full of momentum.
