Confused country poison concubine

Chapter 199: Hostage (3)
"Young master is so accurate!" Qinglian immediately clapped her hands and laughed, looked at her master reverently and said, "Can Qinglian go and pick up the prey for the master?"

Mei Su withdrew the light crossbow, nodded towards Qinglian, said with a smile: "Go."

"Yes!" Qinglian pointed her toes, and jumped out nimbly. The seemingly delicate girl's martial arts were not weak at all.

Mei Su put an arrow on the light crossbow again, and said calmly: "Although the bird has sharp claws and long wings, if it is injured, it will naturally not be able to fly high, not to mention there are countless snares waiting for her."

Ting Yun suddenly remembered the bloody coat sent by Zhengyang's people today, and was a little puzzled: "How do you know that the 'bird' must be injured?"

He had heard that there were three targets. Of course, the only one that his master really planned to keep alive was the right master.

Mei Su showed a half-smile expression: "If I say, is it intuition?"

Although the news found in Li's house was that Zhou Yu was injured, but his wound was on his arm, presumably the wound he ordered people to shoot arrows in the cave, and the blood stains on the hem of the bloody clothes seemed to be injured on the lower body, the size of the bloody clothes Only a woman's slender figure can wear it, if the bird is not injured, who else could it be?

Ting Yun was startled, then laughed: "The Patriarch's intuition has always been very accurate."

Villagers carrying firewood and fishing for home lined up at the entrance of the village. A slightly slender young fisherman was wearing a bamboo hat and carrying a burden between them.

The old man beside him saw that his figure was tense, and he looked very nervous, so he couldn't help tugging at the hem of his clothes, and lowered his voice to warn him: "Gua Wazi, relax a bit, this appearance is because you are afraid." Don't others know that we have a problem here!"

The boy lowered his head so that people couldn't see his appearance clearly. Seeing what the old man said, he tried his best to relax his figure.

Soon, it was their turn to check. A soldier came over and looked at them coldly. While picking up the things in their burden with the spear in his hand, he said, "What's your relationship?"

The old man laughed and said, "Old man... the old man is this kid's old uncle."

After that, he stepped forward and quietly stuffed a dime to the soldier, and said with a smile: "Master, my sister is lying on the bed and is seriously ill. We just got some herbs back, please do me a favor, let us Go there earlier, the old man is afraid that the decoction time will be delayed."

During the search, in order to find some oil and water, some soldiers really dawdled and refused to let them go. Now that the soldier saw that there was a lot of money in his hand, he was happy and rummaged through their things again, but it was only two loads of fish. I didn't find anything wrong with it, so I waved my hand to let them pass: "Go."

A villager who had been waiting for the inspection for a long time but hadn't passed yet saw that the people behind him had passed, and suddenly yelled dissatisfiedly: "Old Panzi, isn't your widow and old sister just a married daughter? Come nephew, why haven’t we heard of it.”

While chewing betel nuts, he watched coldly the team leader who inspected the team. Hearing this, he suddenly remembered what he had heard about the thief changing his face this morning. He walked over vigilantly, looked at the old man coldly, and finally stopped Seeing that the young man kept his head down, he asked, "You are the old man's nephew, so let me ask you, what is the old man's name?"

The young man was stiff all over, still bowed his head, but did not speak.

The team leader narrowed his eyes, became more suspicious, and put his hand on the sword on his waist: "Why, you don't even know the name of your old uncle?"

The old man called Old Panzi was also a little flustered, but he still smiled and said: "My lord, this nephew of the old man was born with a burnt head. He was sent out by my sister to be raised by someone. I heard that my old sister was dying, so I came back from the next village to check, and he doesn't speak much."

After finishing speaking, he couldn't help but kicked the young man with his head down viciously: "Idiot, you still haven't said hello to the official."

However, this kind of explanation obviously did not satisfy the squad leader. Instead, it made him more vigilant, and with a wink, he signaled the surrounding subordinates to surround him. At the same time, he drew out the sword in his hand and pointed at the young man: Take off your hat, at once!"

The boy trembled instantly, suddenly without saying a word, he threw the thing on his shoulders at the captain.

The team leader didn't expect that the other party would attack when they said they would attack, and suddenly his face turned pale with fright, and the sword in his hand immediately slashed at those burdens mercilessly. Immediately, the goddess scattered flowers and scattered them all at a glance.

The dried fish in the burden flew around and suddenly caught fire. Once the fire started, the smell of dried fish suddenly became unbearable.

The soldiers here have not experienced the trap they fell in when chasing Qiu Yebai before. They never thought that the dried fish would be a hidden weapon, but they were subconsciously scared away by the instantly ignited dried fish.

The boy immediately took advantage of this opportunity and fled out desperately.

Old Panzi didn't expect such an accident to happen, he was already so frightened that he fell to the ground.

The team leader regained his composure and immediately screamed: "It's that thief, catch him, catch him!"

After saying that, he immediately held the sword in his hand and led a group of gathered soldiers to swarm out, chasing after the boy in the direction where he was fleeing.

A group of villagers were stunned by the changes in front of them. They only felt that there was chaos in front of them. They were all ordinary and honest villagers. Wherever they had seen such a battle, they were so frightened that they immediately picked up their belongings and rushed towards the village. They flocked and made birds and beasts scatter.

The rest of the soldiers had long since lost their mind to check one by one. After a while, there was no villager at the entrance of the lively village.

"Report to Patriarch, the target has appeared and is being rounded up!" Qing Lian suddenly rushed in from the door with a wild goose in her hand, and excitedly said to Mei Su.

"Congratulations to Patriarch, you have a great plan." Hearing this, Ting Yun said to Meisu with a smile on his hands.

Mei Su was startled for a moment, and then a cheerful smile flashed across her face that was always moody and indifferent: "I didn't expect this Haidongqing to be so impatient, but it's not like her, and Let's talk about it in detail."

Just now Qinglian went to pick up the geese shot down by Meisu, just seeing what happened just now, she smiled proudly: "Originally Qinglian wanted to help, but seeing that the Zhengyin guards have already led people to chase them went out, so the slaves rushed back to report the matter to the Patriarch."

Afterwards, she told Mei Su in detail what she saw just now.

I just don't know why, while listening to her statement, Mei Su's face changed from joy at the beginning to doubt, then to gloom, and finally to a kind of helpless but joyful complexion. look.
