Chang'an Fu

Chapter 14 4 Ambush

Li Yu can understand children's psychology, but it is not easy for him to make a conclusion about the final conclusion. If this matter is really caused by Zhang Chengyou's collusion, then it is not something he can keep

"Let's go" the man spoke, this was the first sentence he said after escaping this time

Li Yu nodded, it's time to go, they still have a lot of things to do

The two came to the big banyan tree that the child mentioned, and followed the child's instructions to find the mechanism that opened the stone wall. Following the previous path, the two of them quickly walked out of the shop and came to the center of the city.

"I didn't expect this tailor shop to have a secret passage leading to Zhang Chengyou's home," said the man named Chengzi.

"Clothing shop? Was this a clothing store?" Li Yu asked, "This secret passage doesn't seem to be newly opened. I think this clothing store is either opened by Zhang Chengyou or someone related to him."

"I have heard about the boss Chen of this clothing store. I heard that he came here from other places to do business. Usually, this store only entertains those who are rich and have a family background. My family has never been here, but I I met this Boss Chen by accident before." Chengzi explained, "Since the epidemic broke out here, those of us who didn't get sick were also arrested, but I never paid attention to this Boss Chen again."

"Let's not say whether Boss Chen came here because of the plague incident, but his shop has something to do with Zhang Cheng." Li Yu continued, "The most urgent thing now is to find a shop that no one will find out." Our place has a long-term plan, I think there might be their eyeliner outside."

"I do know a place, but they may not be able to find it," Cheng Zi said, "Follow me."

Li Yu followed him all the way to a woods. To be precise, this is not a woods, because apart from the few lush and tall trees against the backdrop of the illusion that this is a dense woods, actually walking in You will find that there is actually a sea of ​​flowers here, red, white, pink, yellow, Du Ruoshanjuan, Rose Mountain Daisy, and some even Li Yu can’t name them. They have different shapes and bloom in brilliance.

"I didn't expect there to be such a fairyland-like place here." Li Yu couldn't help sighing.

"This is the place where I used to come to collect herbs and spices," Chengzi replied, "We have to go a little further to where we are going."

As the two continued to walk forward, Li Yu couldn't help asking on the way.

"You said before that you collect spices, what are you doing? Spice master?"

"Not really, it's just my personal preference. I usually like to study some ancient books and play with these things."

"No wonder you told me in the secret room before that the censer contained tranquilizing incense. It turned out that you met an expert."

While the two were talking, Cheng Zi led Li Yu to a cave, "Here it is," Cheng Zi said, and led Li Yu inside, "When I came here to collect spices, if it was late, I would come to this cave to deal with it." Su, I've never met anyone else here besides me, I think it's safe"

Li Yu followed him to the cave. The cave is not big and not deep, but it is more than enough for a few people to live in. "This is a good place."

After the two sat down, they began to discuss the rescue strategy. Although Li Yu came here on order, since he came here behind his back, he didn't want to make too much publicity. Unless it was a last resort, he didn't Willing to find support from the garrison here

"When I was in Zhang Chengyou's residence, I heard from children that Zhang Chengyou would go out every once in a while, and it would last for three or four days. I think it's best for us to rescue them at that time. time"

"But..." Cheng Zi was troubled when he heard Li Yu's words.

Seeing this, Li Yu said, "I know what you are worried about. I also have the same worries about the things you are worried about. It's just that we have too few people at the moment. Although I am proficient in martial arts, once I am discovered, after all, two fists are no match for four hands, so In this matter, we can only wait for the opportunity and outsmart him. Right now, we still need to get in touch with the child, because only through him can we know Zhang Chengyou's whereabouts."

Cheng Zi was silent for a while, then nodded slowly, agreeing with Li Yu's point of view

After Li Yu saw Chengzi nodding, he went to the entrance of the cave and whistled outside. Before Chengzi could figure out what Li Yu wanted to do, a black spot appeared in the blue sky, accompanied by a loud "ah!" As the black dot moved closer to Chengzi, it turned out to be an eagle, and soon the eagle flew in front of Chengzi and stood on Li Yu's shoulder.

"This..." Cheng Zi was stunned for a moment, not knowing what to say.

"This is Whirlwind, my eagle." Li Yu said, turning his head to meet the eagle on his shoulder, "Whirlwind, I need you to deliver the letter for me."

Hearing what he said, the whirlwind immediately flew to the ground and looked at Li Yu with its head swinging from side to side, as if waiting for his order.

Just when Li Yu was planning to write a note for Cyclone to bring to Zhang Peng, he suddenly found that he had no paper or ink around him, and there was no place to buy it.

The Chengzi on the side watched this scene, and then he was relieved, "Do you need paper and ink? I have it" and walked into the depths of the cave

Seeing this, Li Yu glanced at Xuanfeng inexplicably, Xuanfeng immediately understood, and then immediately returned to stand on Li Yu's shoulder, just like this, one person and one eagle followed Chengzi and walked inside, Chengzi stopped in front of Li Yu, from Reaching into a hole in the wall and picking something up

Before Li Yu could ask, Cheng Zi took out a stack of papers in a short while, "Sometimes some new spice recipes pop up in my mind, because I am afraid of forgetting, so I will put some papers here, here, here You, oh yes, and" as he said that, Chengzi seemed to remember something and once again dug his hand into the small hole, and this time he took out another black mass

"What is this?" Li Yu asked

"Charcoal pen" saw Li Yu's expression of disbelief, and Chengzi explained, "It's actually charcoal. Blackened charcoal can write colorful characters. It's inconvenient for me to have no pens here, so I use this instead." "Seeing that Li Yu still looked dubious, Cheng Zi simply picked up the charcoal pencil in his hand and demonstrated it. Sure enough, a few large black characters appeared on the paper immediately. Recognized, so Li Yu took the pen and paper and began to write

Soon he wrote the note and called the whirlwind to come, and the whirlwind heard the call, came over, grabbed the already rolled letter paper with its sharp claws, and flew away

"Now we just need to wait for the news." After speaking, Li Yu found a place to sit down and rest

"You eagle is very spiritual," Chengzi sighed.

"Yes, he has been with me for several years. It was given to me by a friend of mine." Li Yu replied indifferently, and then asked Chengzi as if remembering, "Chengzi, this name is your full name." Well, I heard that group of people calling you that in the secret room before"

"My full name is Xiao Cheng. Because I live in the neighbors, they call me Chengzi according to my parents." When it was mentioned that Xiao Cheng's face dimmed instantly, Li Yu didn't ask any more questions. In a disaster, comfort is useless, because it has nothing to do with oneself, so it doesn't hurt or itch

"Sleep for a while, I don't think the whirlwind will come back so soon." After speaking, Li Yu lay down on the spot, but he didn't fall asleep, he was still thinking about what happened in the city

After an unknown amount of time, the familiar whirling sound of whirlwind came from outside the cave, Xiao Cheng got up when he heard the sound, it seemed that he was not asleep beside him, seeing Li Yu take the note from the eagle claw, Xiao Cheng asked impatiently

"Well, what did the letter say?"

"The child said that he overheard Zhang Chengyou talking to someone today, saying that he wanted to transfer all the people in the secret room to another place."

"No, I have to save them quickly." Hearing this, Xiao Cheng wanted to rush out to save them, but was stopped by Li Yu

"What are you panicking, wait until there is no movement in their house, and then we will sneak in to save people"

Hearing what Li Yu said, Xiao Cheng realized that he was too impulsive just now, and then he reacted and nodded in agreement with Li Yu's statement

Soon the sky darkened, and as the night gradually deepened, Li Yu looked at the sky and thought it was time

"Go, go."

The two of them walked along the way they came before. When they passed the sea of ​​flowers, Li Yu discovered that the difference from the daytime before was that this place was more quiet at night when it was illuminated by the moonlight. This is really a rare beauty. Place, Li Yu thought so while walking forward

Soon they came to the previous clothing store, and the two followed the road before and entered Xiao's mansion.

"It's surprisingly quiet, don't they even have a fortified person here?"

"The people in this city are dead and imprisoned, and there are soldiers guarding outside the city. Although it is useless, it can still make people feel scruples." Li Yu was thinking in his heart as he said this. alone did they really find nothing

Just when they were about to go to the study, Li Yu suddenly heard a noise, and just as he was about to draw his sword to fend off the enemy, a little man came out from behind the tree

"I knew you guys would come over tonight, so why don't you keep telling me?" It turned out that it was Zhang Peng.

Li Yu withdrew the sword in his hand, "I was thinking of doing things quietly at night, and I didn't want to bring too many people, but since you're here, come with us, if there's something that might help you." For example, distract the enemy , or as a hostage or something.Of course, Li Yu just thought about the latter words in his heart.

The three of them came to the study, and everything went very smoothly. Since there was no guard who came here before, Li Yu didn't think much about it, so he came to the secret room along the way.

After opening the door of the secret room, the people inside all looked at them in shock, Xiao Cheng immediately ran forward

"Folks, I'm here to save you, follow me quickly"

Those people didn't understand why they only thought that they could really escape, so they quickly got up and followed Li Yu and the others. Just as everyone walked to the study, torches were lit outside, accompanied by the sound of many footsteps, Li Yu Knowing that he had been tricked, he looked at the child, who also had a shocked expression on his face. It seems that he probably didn't know about it.
