Chapter 420 Danger (2)
Shopkeeper Zhen's face turned pale in an instant, and Shu Jin's sharp eyes made him feel inexplicably guilty, but he insisted: "This old man has worked in the Mei family for many years, and since he can work for His Highness, he will naturally act cautiously, old man I have already ordered people to check their details before I dare to do such a business."

Shu Jin squinted her eyes and sneered, flung her cloak and sat down: "Master Zhen, when doing business in this season, have you forgotten that His Highness ordered you not to open the stove? Can Tiao Ming accompany His Highness?"

Shopkeeper Zhen's heart skipped a beat, he naturally knew the Eighth Prince's order, and now he was at fault no matter what, but seeing a young man like Shu Jin speak so aggressively, he felt even more displeased, so he said in a stubborn voice: "Old man It's just for the sake of the master. After all, His Highness is in a difficult situation and always needs money to manage it. What's more, the Qimen Dunjia on that leaf mountain is the current head of the Mei family, designed by Mei Su, and the ability of the young master Mei Su. We have stayed in the Mei family for a long time. who doesn't know!"

When Shu Jin heard Mei Su's name, the scarred half of his face twitched slightly, he narrowed his eyes, and smiled sullenly: "Yes, no one knows what the young master Mei Su is capable of, except He is the overlord of the shopping malls, and he has the ability to observe the stars and watch the stars."

He paused, then suddenly asked: "Yes, is there anything unusual in that mountain?"

When Shopkeeper Zhen heard Shu Jin mentioning Mei Su, his strange expression showed a ferocious look again, but when he looked closely, he saw that Shu Jin had returned to that indifferent look, so he didn't think much about it. Just thinking about Shu Jin's question, then he suddenly remembered that someone reported yesterday that a guard was missing, but he didn't hear any business or traces of a fight. He suspected that the missing guard ran away secretly, so he blurted out: "By the way, the day before yesterday..."

But then, as soon as he met Shu Jin's sharp and sinister eyes, he remembered Shu Jin's threat that if something happened, he would be finished, and swallowed the words in his throat.

Seeing his appearance, Shu Jin frowned: "Shopkeeper Zhen, what did you say the day before yesterday?"

Shopkeeper Zhen hesitated for a while, then coughed lightly: "The day before yesterday, it snowed heavily in that mountain, and some mechanisms were covered by snow, and the old man was worried that it would fail."

Shu Jin shook her head when she heard the words: "There will be some impact, but not too much."

Shopkeeper Zhen smiled: "That's right, the old man can rest assured."

In any case, there was a guard missing in the mountains. Before the result was found out, it was natural to turn it into a trivial matter, and the special envoys of the Eighth Prince should not know about it.

"Go and sort out the information on the members of the Lu gang, especially the situation of Mr. Bai. I always feel that Mr. Bai is definitely not an ordinary person from the world." Shu Jin said with a frown.

At such a sensitive time, such sensitive Jianghu people came and made more sensitive requests. Although it seemed that it had nothing to do with their court, it was really a coincidence, and he had to think deeply.

"Yes." Shopkeeper Zhen felt displeased with Shu Jin's instructing him like this, but he was afraid of his identity, so he nodded and left immediately.

Watching Shopkeeper Zhen leave, Shu Jin's eyes flashed coldly: "Go alone, follow this old thing, don't let anyone find out."

A subordinate next to him immediately cupped his hands: "Yes!" Then he followed Shopkeeper Zhen and disappeared outside the door.

"Master Captain, do you doubt that Shopkeeper Zhen is not trustworthy, then shall we mobilize troops to surround Yecheng?" Another subordinate stepped forward and asked in a low voice.

Shu Jin narrowed her eyes slightly, and said coldly: "Although this person may not betray His Highness, but if he can betray Meisu for money, then he will also do some stupid things for money, such as this time the arsenal incident happened, His Highness has clearly sent someone to order that the stove is never allowed to be opened again, but he opened the stove for unknown martial arts practitioners."

"It has been snowing in Yecheng for so many years. If there is a problem with the mechanism, it is impossible for him not to know. He can tell at a glance that he must have remembered what happened in Yeshan, but he hesitated and evaded it because he was worried that the heavy snow would damage the mechanism!"

"The army outside the city?" The subordinate asked hesitantly, and His Highness gave them the token to mobilize the garrison in Yecheng City, and they can surround Yecheng at any time.

"Keep in touch, let's see the situation first." Shu Jin squinted her gloomy eyes, and muttered, "People from the Jianghu... Bai..."

This white word always makes him feel depressed, because it reminds him of one of the culprits who gave him endless humiliation in Huainan. He fell into Mei Su's hands and escaped after a narrow escape.

However, is the current Mr. Bai of the Lu Gang really Qiu Yebai? If he remembers correctly, Qiu Yebai has a lot of background in the world, so is it really a coincidence?

Shu Jin narrowed her eyes dangerously: "Send two more people to spy on the courtyard where the gangsters live!"

"Yes!" The other two also quickly disappeared.

Shu Jin pushed open the window, looked at the cornices and brackets in the yard not far away, reached out and lightly touched the scar on her face, her eyes gleamed with gloom.

Now that Qiu Yebai has taken refuge in the Du family and the Empress Dowager Lafayette, and has been promoted smoothly in the imperial court, if this person has really come to Huainan as Luzhulou Xiaozuo said, he will definitely let this person come and go!

"Immediately send people out to contact Ning Dong and Xiao Qi who are in the village, and let them immediately lead people into Yeshan to search and seize all the evidence. Don't worry about alarming the enemy. After all, the longer this matter drags on, the worse the result will be." Qiu Yebai gave orders to the rat in the room, and the rat nodded and left immediately.

She paused, then looked at Lao Chang again: "It's a time lag. Once the Mei family becomes alert, they will move immediately. There are three sword casting fields. We just brought more than 70 people, which may not be enough, Lao Chang I need you to go and notify me for support!"

Lao Chang immediately clasped his fists solemnly: "Yes."

Xiaolou also immediately said: "I'll go too, I'm the only one who is most familiar with the terrain, I can go in with Xiaofu to mark some places that need attention, and then lead Sister Ningdong and the others into the mountain!"

Qiu Yebai looked at the small building, hesitated for a while, and then nodded: "Okay, you have to pay attention to safety, Ningdong's martial arts are superb, and it will always be helpful to you."

Speaking of which, although Ning Dong doesn't know much about Qimen Dunjia, he is better than her, so there will be no big mistakes in such an arrangement.

Xiaolou raised his head and showed her a bright smile: "Yes, deputy seat, waiting for the good news from Xiaolou!"

After all, he and Lao Chang went out to chase the rats together and made preparations together.

After arranging all the things, Qiu Yebai just got up from the warm couch, gathered the clothes on his shoulders, and then looked out the window at the thick clouds with a slightly condensed expression.
