Chapter 111 Traces
"These robbers are so arrogant. I see that there are quite a few officers and soldiers in the city. What is the strength of the other party?" Chu Ye asked.
Commander Guo immediately replied: "The ministers and others have led troops to encircle and suppress them before. At that time, they brought more than two thousand people. Who would have thought that there were twice as many robbers staying in the stronghold? Tingfeng stronghold is surrounded by mountains. The place is narrow, and it is indeed a place that is easy to defend but difficult to attack."
"I saw that the situation was not going well and wanted to evacuate, but I didn't expect that there were robbers ambushing behind me!" Commander Guo continued.
When Chu Ye heard this, he felt very bad. He didn't expect so many people to gather in this area of the robber's cottage, so he asked, "Why hasn't there been a report on this matter?"
Commander Guo bowed his head and explained: "Although there are many robbers in Tingfengzhai, they will not invade the city. They just send a few robbers to attack the passing vendors. The ministers and others are only strictly guarded. The northern border Now that the war is in chaos and the situation is complicated, this matter has been shelved."
Chu Ye's face darkened when he heard the words, the situation here is indeed the case, not only those smuggling traders, but also people from the enemy country mixed in, it is understandable that Fengzhai didn't take the initiative to find trouble and they didn't report it.
"Although the situation is like this, how can I let these thieves mess with me!" Chu Ye said sharply.
Upon seeing this, Commander Guo immediately knelt down.
"It depends on the specific situation of Fengzhai, let's talk about it in detail." Chu Ye said at this time.
"According to my investigation, there seem to be nearly [-] people in Tingfeng Village, and eight of them are in charge. Apart from looting, they seem to be doing business by themselves," Commander Guo said.
Then he took out a map and marked the exact location of Tingfeng Village. Chu Ye couldn't help frowning when he saw it. This place was indeed more difficult to attack as Guo Hai said.
The opponent has set up defenses at the entrance, condescending, if there is not enough manpower to go there, I am afraid that they will be destroyed if they fail to break into it.
"You said that Zhao Peng is hiding in Tingfeng Village?" Chu Ye suddenly thought of this.
Commander Guo was also slightly surprised when he heard the words, and after thinking for a while to no avail, he said, "It's hard for me to make a conclusion on this matter. This Tingfeng Village is too mysterious, and it's unknown who is behind it."
Chu Ye looked at the map, and there were high mountains near Canglan, and it was freezing in the sky. If Zhao Peng was not in the city, he would only be in Tingfeng Village after thinking about it. Jing's means, maybe this Tingfeng village is already theirs.
"Recently, pay more attention to the situation in Tingfeng Village, and check whether there are people from the village in the city." Chu Ye ordered.
Guo Hai responded repeatedly.
"There is no need to worry about listening to Fengzhai. I have already discussed with General Yi, and he will bring troops here to meet him soon." Chu Ye said.
Commander Guo was overjoyed when he heard this. No one knows the name of General Yi. Thinking of the Zhenbei Army coming in person, why should the small village be afraid? I am grateful.”
"These are people who threaten the safety of my people in Dajing, as it should be." Chu Ye waved his hand.
After Commander Guo retreated, Chu Ye was looking into the distance, thinking about Zhao Peng.
"Liu Aiqing, let's go out for a walk." After thinking to no avail, Chu Ye planned to wander around the city.
The two came to the market in Canglan City, and since both Chu Ye and Chu Ye were dressed in very ordinary clothes, they were not worried about being recognized.
I saw that there were many steaming food stalls on both sides of the street, and it was so bustling here.
When Chu Ye walked past a stall, he was suddenly stopped by a stall owner.
"Young master, are you not a local?" The stall owner stepped forward and asked.
After hearing this, Chu Ye stopped and turned to look at him. The stall owner continued, "I have a lot of rare goods here. You might as well take a look, you can't buy them anywhere else!"
Upon hearing this, Chu Ye knew that the other party was just selling his products, and suddenly felt a little funny, but he still moved forward curiously.
This small stall seemed to be a grocery stall, and there were many strange things on it, but with Chu Ye's eyesight, he recognized many things of little value at a glance.
Suddenly Chu Ye's eyes moved, he picked up a pendant, and put it on his hand. Although the workmanship of this pendant is extremely rough, the oval-shaped spar hanging on it is a bit strange.
The inside is hollow, and some liquid has been injected into it somehow, and now the liquid inside has solidified to form a pattern, which looks quite delicate.
"Sir, you have really good eyesight! It is rumored that this pendant was left by a fairy..." The stall owner immediately bragged about it.
"When this spar is in a severe cold place, it will solidify like this inside. If it is in the south, it will melt inside to form another pattern." The stall owner said.
"It's quite interesting, I want it." After saying that, Chu Ye threw down the silver, took the pendant and turned to leave. The stall owner saw that Chu Ye had made such a generous move, and nodded and bowed his thanks repeatedly.
"Your Majesty, that person was talking nonsense just now." Liu Genghong reminded at this time.
Chu Ye just smiled slightly and said, "Of course I know he's lying, but I really like this pendant."
Just as Chu Ye looked around and wanted to go to the next place, suddenly there was an exclamation from the crowd beside him.
A figure suddenly tripped and fell beside Chu Ye. Liu Genghong immediately protected Chu Ye with his whole body, and led Chu Ye back a step.
Taking a closer look, I saw that it was a young woman in a blue dress, with a beautiful appearance and clear eyes. She was clutching her calf and sitting slumped on the ground.
At this time, Chu Ye signaled Liu Genghong to relax, came in front of the woman, stretched out his hand and said, "Miss, are you alright?"
The woman was slightly taken aback, and when she looked up to see Chu Ye, her pretty face couldn't help but turn slightly red, she turned her head away after a while, but still shyly asked Chu Ye to help her up.
"Thank you, sir!" The woman bowed her head to Chu Ye after standing up.
But before Chu Ye could say anything more, the woman covered her face and lowered her head and turned away. From a distance, Chu Ye seemed to see the other party looking back at him from time to time.
Seeing this, Chu Ye spread his hands helplessly, turned back to Liu Genghong, and thought to himself, "Is it because I am so handsome that I scare other girls?"
……
The woman who met Chu Ye just now, after turning a street corner, her footsteps suddenly became very fast, not as slow as before. After passing through the crowd, the woman came to a medicine shop.
The shopkeeper of the pharmacy said lazily, "What do you want..."
But when he looked up and saw that it was the young woman, he immediately got up from the reclining chair, bowed his head and cupped his fists respectfully towards the woman.
The woman didn't speak, just nodded slightly to him, and then walked towards the pharmacy, and the shopkeeper of the pharmacy immediately came to the door of the store when he saw this, and closed the door directly, closing in broad daylight.
