"No..." Wandong shook his head slowly, feeling that his head seemed to weigh a thousand pounds.
"Then... that means General Wan and the others really haven't arrived at Yunzhong City yet. Could it be that they really..." Yue Zhong didn't dare to think about it, his face was completely overwhelmed by tension and worry.
The expressions of Tan Jian, Qiu Xing, and Liu Zhi were also gray and white. If the mission led by Wan Youqi really has any shortcomings, it will definitely be a heavy blow to them.
"Yao Ting, what... what should we do?" Yue Zhong was a little panicked and asked Wan Dong with a trembling voice.
Wan Dong knows his aunt Wan Youqi very well. Wan Youqi's talent and resourcefulness are definitely not inferior to Wan Haoxiong's. This is why she is so young and a girl, but she can serve as the right-hand man of Tiandu Kingdom. The reason for the important responsibilities of military generals. Wan Dong also knows that Wan Youqi and the others will never be in peace along the way, but he firmly believes that with Wan Youqi's ability, they will be able to avert danger.
After thinking about it, Wan Dong said to Yue Zhong, "Although General Wan and the others did not enter the palace to pay homage to the emperor, it does not mean that they did not arrive at Yunzhong City. Maybe there were some procedures that could not be completed for a while, and it was possible that they were delayed. Our top priority now is to determine whether General Wan and the others have arrived at Yunzhong City. If it is confirmed that they have not arrived, I will personally lead the Dingshan Guards to search for them along the way to Tiandu Kingdom. I will not stop until I find their whereabouts!"
After hearing what Wandong said, Yue Zhong and the others immediately had a backbone and were at ease.
Yue Zhong asked, "But Yunzhong City is so big. Finding someone is like looking for a needle in a haystack. Where should we start?"
Wandong said without hesitation, "General Wan and the others are envoys. According to the rules, they will stay at Guanyi. Let's start from Guanyi!"
…
"Wu Yichang, my brother has been in Beijing for many days and has lived here. I am grateful for your care. Come, brother, give you a drink!" In the hotel, there was a sumptuous banquet, and seven or eight people were sitting around the table. A closer look revealed that they were all high-ranking local officials, with Postmaster Wu surrounding them, drinking from their cups.
A small postmaster only has an official rank of seventh rank. If placed in a local context, he is just a county magistrate. He may not be able to serve tea and wine to these high-ranking local officials at the table. Son. But in this post, the little postmaster Wu is like a prince. His expression and demeanor are enough to compare with those first-class officials.
Wu Yichang was clearly used to such banquets. He was sitting among local senior officials, chatting and laughing happily, without restraint, and was able to cope with it.
"Master Zhang, what you said is obvious! If you can stay in our hotel, you are looking down on your brother. Come on, do it!"
Wu Yichang picked up the wine glass and drank it all in one gulp. He was very generous and attracted cheers from all the officials at the table. This made Wu Yichang even more excited, and his face turned red as if he had applied rouge.
Putting the wine glass heavily on the table, Wu Yichang stepped on the stool, his face full of excitement, and he patted his chest and said, "My lords, although your official ranks are higher than mine, you may not have the same connections. To tell you the truth, at least half of the civil and military ministers in the Manchu Dynasty were promoted from the local government. Which one of them has not lived in my hotel, and which one has not been friends with me, Wu Rengui? "
As soon as Wu Rengui finished speaking, the officials present nodded in agreement, and they all made flattering remarks, wishing that Wu Rengui would be drowned alive.
After some praise, another round of toasts was inevitable. Wu Rengui also had a large number of people, and he drank all the guests and drank happily.
Just when Wu Rengui was in high spirits, a worker from the post office walked in quickly and said to Wu Rengui, "Director Wu, there is someone outside who wants to see you."
"Meet me?" Wu Rengui burped and curled his lips drunkenly and asked, "What grade is he?"
The worker thought for a moment and then replied, "They are a few young people, they seem to be... no good."
"You bastard!" Wu Rengui got angry when he heard this. He kicked the worker three feet away and said angrily: "Are you new here? Don't you know my rules? An official of the fourth grade and first grade, Never seen!"
When Wu Rengui said this, the officials sitting with him immediately gave him a thumbs up and repeatedly praised him for being so arrogant!
Wu Rengui immediately felt a little carried away. He pointed at the worker and shouted, "Go! Give me my order and beat out those idiots who don't know how to die! Damn it, who do you think I am? Whoever wants to see you can do it!" See you? Go quickly!”
"Yes, yes!" The worker was kicked, but he didn't dare to be nagging. He gritted his teeth and rushed out. He probably remembered all the anger from this kick to the young people who wanted to see Wu Postmaster. .
Seeing the worker running faster than a dog, Wu Rengui couldn't help but feel proud and said, "These idiots, if you are polite to them, they won't make progress."
Not long after the worker ran out, there was a burst of fighting and screaming outside. The screams were so shrill that the adults sitting there were startled and stunned. They asked, "Chief Wu, this method of attack won't cause death, right?"
"It's possible." Wu Rengui replied casually while pouring wine for himself.
"Ah!?" Seeing Wu Rengui's normal appearance, several adults looked at each other in shock.
When Wu Rengui saw their shocked looks, he immediately burst into laughter and said, "Sir, I'm kidding you! Don't worry, the people under my command have a sense of proportion and will not cause any harm to anyone. At most, Let them stay in bed for a year and a half, doing little things.”
Seeing that some of the adults were a little distracted, Wu Rengui smiled and said, "Come on, let's continue drinking, don't let a few thieves ruin our fun. By the way, do you remember that there was a group of liars pretending to be the princess and general of Tiandu Kingdom today?" , come to my place to cheat on food and drink, right?"
"Remember, remember." Several adults nodded in agreement.
Wu Rengui drank a glass of wine with a sigh, and then said angrily, "You don't know, I regretted it as soon as I drove them away."
An adult asked hurriedly, "Why? Is it possible that they are really the princess and general of Tiandu Kingdom?"
Wu Rengui waved his hand and said, "That's not the case! With my piercing eyes, I can tell at a glance whether they are a princess or a general. What I regret is that I shouldn't have let them leave, especially those two little girls. What a charming person! Do you think I regret that I drove away the beautiful woman who came to my door like this?”
As soon as Wu Rengui said this, several adults present immediately showed knowing smiles. It is estimated that the beautiful figures of Wan Youqi and Shangguan Yunzhu came to their minds at this time.
"That's right! They pretended to be the princess and general of Tiandu Kingdom, which is a serious crime in itself. Wu Yichang can use this as an excuse to detain them. Hehe... As long as they are detained, what do you want? It's up to you Wu What does the postmaster mean?"
"Yes! I must have had a bloody brain at that time, so I just let them go. When I come back to my senses, where will I find them? Those two little ladies, one young cardamom, A mature and charming person, if they are put on the bed together, it will not be beautiful?" Wu Rengui seemed to really regret it, and kept patting his forehead. Looking at the claws scratching his heart, it seemed as if Wan Youqi and Shangguan Yunzhu had taken away his sweetheart with them.
"Wu Yichang, there is no need to be too upset. With your power in Yunzhong City, if you want to find someone, it's not a matter of just talking to him?" An adult comforted him.
Wu Rengui clapped his hands, and the annoyance on his face was immediately wiped away. He pointed at the official who comforted him and said repeatedly, "I woke up the dreamer with one word! How could I have forgotten this? This Yunzhong City is Two canaries flew into my territory, am I still worried about not being able to catch them? Hahaha... "
"Director Wu, if we find him, we will definitely let him go again."
"Of course not! If I find him back, I... Hehe..." Wu Yichang probably thought of a wonderful place, and his laughter flowed out, but he didn't know it.
boom!
Just when Wu Rengui was thinking about it, a black thing was suddenly thrown in from outside and hit their dining table with a loud bang. The table full of food was splashed everywhere. The adults had no time to dodge and were immediately splashed all over their faces.
Wu Rengui lowered his head and saw that the person who was thrown onto the dining table turned out to be a big living person, and it was none other than the worker who had been kicked by him just now. At this time, he was dying, with only the breath coming out and no breathing coming in.
"Which bastard is so brave that he dares to break into our hotel!?" Wu Rengui immediately became furious and looked out angrily.
Only five figures were seen, four in front and one behind, walking in slowly. The four figures walking in front were four heroic young people, but at this time, their faces were full of anger. Their eyes looking at Wu Rengui seemed to be spitting out fire, which made Wu Rengui couldn't help but feel angry. Trembling.
"You... who are you? You are so brave..." Wu Rengui pointed at Yue Zhong who was walking at the front, and was about to scold him, but before he could finish speaking, Yue Zhongbai rushed up and shook his hand. Wu Rengui's fingers suddenly twisted, and there was a crisp click. Wu Rengui's fingers immediately turned into two entangled twists.
With ten fingers connected to the heart, how can it not hurt? Wu Rengui immediately let out a scream similar to that of killing a pig, and a layer of fine beads of sweat instantly appeared on his forehead.
"Guan Gu! Let me ask you, is what you just said true?" Yue Zhong shouted sharply, his eyes full of murderous intent.
Under the leadership of Wan Dong, a group of five people came to Guanyi. They originally wanted to ask Wu Rengui and Wan Youqi if they had come to complain. However, they did not expect that instead of seeing Wu Rengui, they were surrounded by others.
With Wandong's temper, he would not give in, so the five of them beat him up. As soon as the five people came in, they heard Wu Rengui's regretful cry for letting Wan Youqi and Shangguan Yunzhu go. Their expressions continued to reveal a hateful and ugly look of lewdness. Yue Zhong and others How can you not be angry? (To be continued)
