Longevity begins with a dog

Chapter 21
"What's impossible?"

Xu Chong couldn't understand.

"I need to know what Fu Yuanlong did in Canglong County first."

Sun Yourong frowned and asked.

"Row."

Immediately, Xu Chong explained everything in detail from the beginning to the end, including the arrangements he made for the arrest.

"Not right!"

Sun Yourong said categorically.

"What's wrong?"

"The deadline he gave you should not be ten days."

"You will recover in ten days. Of course, it will take ten days to catch you. Is there any problem?"

"Because ten days is a cure, but it only takes five days to recover the ability to move freely!"

Sun Yourong lowered her head slightly, with deep doubts in her eyes, "After five days, as long as I don't appear in an open place, it is almost impossible for ordinary people to find me."

"Five days...my search plan is based on ten days. It's impossible for Fu Yuanlong not to know about it, but he didn't object."

Xu Chong's expression was a bit depressed, "It seems that his plan from the beginning was to wait for you to recover and continue to hunt and kill you, and he never counted on us at all."

I've done so much by myself, in the eyes of Fu Yuanlong, I'm afraid it's ridiculous.

"Not quite."

Sun Yourong denied again, "Of course he can continue to hunt after I recover, but in that case, the matter will return to the starting point, and his efforts for several months will be in vain, and what if I keep hiding? here?"

"He wants to monopolize the credit, and it's impossible to spend it with you... If you say that, he still has other ways to catch you!"

Thinking of this, Xu Chong broke out in cold sweat, and looked out the window suspiciously.

"Don't worry, if he had already shot outside, he wouldn't wait so long."

Sun Yourong gave a word of relief.

"That's good."

Xu Chong breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the words, and immediately frowned tightly, "What will be the solution?"

"I can't think of it either."

Sun Yourong shook her head, "But it doesn't matter, as long as I survive these five days, I can contact Taipingdao for help, and it is not impossible to kill him at that time."

"and many more!"

Xu Chong was startled and asked, "Why didn't you contact me before?"

"At that time, Fu Yuanlong was chasing him so closely that he never gave me a chance to deliver any news."

Sun Yourong replied, "When he was near Canglong County, he seemed to be delayed by something, so I was able to get out of his sight and sneak into the county."

"Delay? Is there such a coincidence?"

Xu Chong's eyes flickered, and his complexion became ugly: "Is it possible... that he did it on purpose?"

Sun Yourong was startled, "What do you mean?"

"You mean..."

Sun Yourong obviously thought of something, and her face turned ugly.

"The people in Taipingdao have a problem."

Xu Chong said categorically, "At least, the person in charge of Canglong County has a problem. Fu Yuanlong let you into the city, just waiting for you to ask for help!"

"..."

Sun Yourong was silent for a moment, and had to agree with this deduction, "It seems that that Anzi took refuge in Fu Yuanlong very early."

"Dark boy?"

Xu Chong's heart tightened, "Who? Does he know that you have looked for me?"

"I never thought of involving you, so naturally I won't mention it to anyone."

Sun Yourong glanced at Xu Chong quietly, "His name is Huo Tong, he lives in Huojia Village three miles east of the city, and he is one of the secret sons of Taiping Road in Zhanghua Mansion. On the surface, he sends firewood to rich families in the city. It’s actually responsible for delivering the message.”

"The last time I came to see you, I ignored the people on Taiping Road and told them through Huo Tong to meet at Zhanghua Mansion, but I was stopped by Fu Yuanlong halfway."

"After all, the timing is just right."

Huo Tong...

A stooped middle-aged figure appeared in Xu Chong's mind, "What realm is he?"

"Six levels of enlightenment."

"Huh? Only the sixth stage of enlightenment?"

"..."

Sun Yourong was speechless for a while.

In her opinion, when Xu Chong just started to practice martial arts, the second and third levels were the best, so why did he look so disdainful towards the sixth level?
"You don't need to do anything."

Fearing that Xu Chong would overestimate his capabilities, Sun Yourong quickly said, "I can give up asking for help and wait for the injury to heal with peace of mind."

"What about after you recover? Hiding in the Xu Mansion all the time, giving me a husband and a child?"

Xu Chong mocked unceremoniously.

"..."

Sun Yourong was ashamed and annoyed, it was the first time she met such a shameless person, "I can continue to escape!"

"Tch, are you sure Fu Yuanlong still has that patience after ten days?"

Xu Chong smiled disdainfully, "It's really impossible to catch a living one, I think a dead Taoist is enough for him to pay back."

Hearing this, Sun Yourong also reacted, and suddenly became a little Muggle, "What else should I do? I can't..."

Can't really stay in Xu's mansion to teach husband and son?

I promised myself, but Taipingdao didn't agree either.

Sun Yourong blushed pretty, and secretly glanced at Xu Chong.

"what to do……"

Xu Chong pondered for a moment, and suddenly came up with a bold idea, "Perhaps, we can use our tricks..."

.........

After dawn, Xu Chong replaced Liu Er and took up the duty of hunting again.

The two teams of people patrolling the street and standing guard on the city wall are also proceeding in an orderly manner.

In the evening, it was Xu's turn, but Sun Yourong was not found.

Nothing special after that.

As time passed day by day, Fu Yuanlong didn't show up again, as if he didn't take this matter to heart at all.

Day [-].

Supplies in the city began to run short, and the people complained.

Fu Yuanlong loved the people like his own son, and ordered the south gate to be opened in a targeted manner to maintain the daily needs of the city.

Seventh day.

A stooped middle-aged man dragged a cart and brought six bundles of firewood to Xu's residence.

It is the dark son of Taipingdao, Huo Tong.

When leaving Xu's mansion, Huo Tong found the mark, found a ball of paper in the soil under the tree, turned his head and went to the county government.

"Lord, please see."

Huo Tong respectfully handed over the slip of paper, "The handwriting is the same as last time, it's Sun Yourong."

Fu Yuanlong took it and took a look.

"Send a message to the water ghost, and at Maoshi the next day, the south gate of Canglong County will respond. '

In addition to a sentence, there is also a special symbol, like some kind of identity mark.

When Fu Yuanlong saw the word Shuigui, his pupils suddenly shrank.

"The water ghost is the leader in charge of all the dark men in Zhanghua Mansion."

Huo Tong explained, "This person hides very deeply. Every time we meet, he wears a coir raincoat and a bamboo hat. His real identity cannot be guessed."

"I know this water ghost...Four years ago when the governor was assassinated, the murderer left a message saying that it was a water ghost. At that time, he had at least the fifth level of Tongmai."

Fu Yuanlong remembered the records in the Xueyiwei file, and his face was not very good-looking, "This Sun Yourong, can you invite him?"

"Unable to judge."

Huo Tong shook his head, "Each generation of eighteen Taoists in Taiping Dao has intricate relationships behind it. This Sun Yourong has not been around for a long time, and I don't know where he came from."

"If it's just to get away, there's no need to invite such a big Buddha."

Fu Yuanlong touched his chin, "Is she trying to kill me?"

"Perhaps, it's a pity..."

Huo Tong raised the corner of his mouth, and said in a proud tone, "This news cannot be sent out."

"Oh, yes."

Fu Yuanlong smiled, and nodded in satisfaction, "If this is done, I will be able to become a member of the sixth rank, and it will be no problem to promote a small flag, and the big medicine you want is just a trivial matter."

"Thank you for your cooperation!"

Huo Tong's expression was excited, he wanted to continue to show off, and said: "The secret letter was found outside the house named Xu Chong, is it possible..."

"Stupid! If you changed places, you would leave such obvious traces outside the hiding place?"

Fu Yuanlong twitched his lips in disdain, "What's more, Xu Chong was the planner and executor of the manhunt plan, and he didn't miss the two houses."

Thinking of Xu Chong's rigorous and conscientious work, Fu Yuanlong felt even more satisfied.

In his opinion, Xu Chong was the only one in Canglong County who did things for him sincerely, and it was absolutely impossible for him to have anything to do with the rebels.

"That's what the lord said."

Huo Tong wiped his sweat and asked, "I don't know what the villain will do next?"

"It's hard to force Sun Yourong to this point, so naturally it's just a trick."

Fu Yuanlong hooked his mouth, and took out a small sachet from his bosom, "This is ecstasy incense, you should have heard of it."

"This... Sir, you want me to pretend to be a water ghost?"

Huo Tong almost cried.

Mihunxiang is the most notorious drug of the Xueyiwei, which is specially aimed at the strength of warriors. It only takes a moment for those who have been recruited to become inferior to ordinary people.

Powerful is great, but the question is how could he have the chance to drug Sun Yourong!

Even if you pretend to be a water ghost, you can't find such an opportunity, right?
"Ecstasy incense doesn't have only one usage."

Fu Yuanlong showed disdain, and said: "Put it close to your body and stimulate it with the strength of martial arts. Although the effect of the medicine is slower, it is more subtle and difficult to detect."

"The only downside is that you'll get caught too."

"But you can rest assured, when it is confirmed that Sun Yourong has fallen for the enchanting incense, I will let those ordinary people rush up and create a chance for you to leave."

As he said that, Fu Yuanlong took a deep look at Huo Tong, "I want to gain benefits, but I don't want to take risks. How can there be such a good thing? Don't forget, only the living Daozi can let me and you, get the best benefit."

Huo Tong struggled, and after a while, he gritted his teeth and took the sachet.

"A villain must live up to the expectations of an adult."
