Chapter 2240
Chapter 2240
Although Zhou man brought a lot of luggage with them, the heavy rain really didn't expect that there were cloth, gold, silver and jewelry inside. They should only use them. After all, they know how much they wear and enjoy him for more than a month.
At this time, the people who were talked about by the heavy rain were stationed not far from the town.
The night in the desert was a little cold. Jin quian took a sip of liquor, stood on the sand and looked at the lights in the distance.
Erge added a piece of wood to the fire, clapped his hands and walked to him. He also stared at the place and asked, "do you suspect they are there?"
Jin kui'an took another sip of wine, trying to suppress his heart's fire, but found that he seemed more and more angry.
He pinched the wine pot in his hand and said expressionless, "all the way, I was thinking about where I missed them. When I returned to the Desert Inn again, I remembered that we were in a hurry to catch up with them. We didn't spend the night in the Desert Inn or enter the town when we took this road, but directly went around and chased them with a fast horse."
"The people of the Desert Inn said that they had entered the desert without turning back or going out. Then the route we pursued was right. There was no trace of them along the way, which only showed that we came in front of them."
Every time he thought of this, he felt the same regret as fire. At that time, as long as he entered the town, he might find them.
Erge also has this doubt, but... "Are they still in the town now?"
Jin quian said, "whether you are here or not, as long as you can get their information."
He said: "I don't believe they can disappear out of thin air. As long as I know the time when they leave, I can roughly infer where they are now. I'm not afraid I can't find them."
He moved his fingers, looked at the scattered lights in the distance and said, "in fact, it's best if they're not in the town. The people there are not easy to mess with."
"Brother, the cake is baked."
Jin kui'an turned back to eat late food. After he turned back, a sand pile in the distance moved quietly, and the two discredited quietly returned to the town to report.
"... it's far away. We can't see clearly, but we listened carefully. There are a lot of people. It's estimated that there are dozens of horses, none of them have a car, and they don't have any goods. They are full of banditry. It's hard to provoke anyway."
The mayor drank a bowl of milk tea, frowned and said, "why did the bandits come to us? Why did they want to rob us?"
The investigator was not sure, and said, "it's hard to live outside, so he took a risk?"
The mayor glanced at him and said, "go and inform the brothers that they will meet at the entrance of the town tomorrow morning. Tonight, pick two more teams to guard outside. Once they get close, they will give warning immediately."
"Yes."
Jin kui'an knew the origin of the town and that his peers were in charge of the town, so he didn't do anything misunderstood. After dawn, he asked a person to go to the town to shout, indicating that they were passing by and wanted to have breakfast in the town before leaving.
The news reached the mayor layer by layer. The mayor glanced. Who believes they just came to have breakfast?
But the mayor let someone in, "just invite them to order three people. We'll send them out when we're ready."
Three people are enough to say anything.
Jin Kui, who originally wanted to find someone to inquire about the situation after entering the town, settled down. He couldn't afford time, so he took out a ingot of silver and put it on the table, ordered a pile of worthless breakfast and said, "brother Wu, I want to inquire about something with you."
The mayor looked at the silver ingot pushed in front of him, smiled and said, "it's easy to say, it's easy to say, distinguished guests are at the door. If you have anything to say, just ask. I'll answer if I can."
Jin kui'an asked, "did a team of more than 100 people come to the town some time ago, not a caravan, but officials of the imperial court."
He paused and said, "but there was a small businessman."
The mayor was slightly surprised, but he looked at the housekeeper calmly, "is there such a motorcade? I don't care about things in the town for a long time. I really don't know for a while. I'll let someone check it now, but why do you ask? "
He said: "this is the person from the Yamen. If something happens outside, in case it affects us..."
"Don't worry, brother Wu. It won't affect you. It's our grudge with them."
The mayor smiled, turned the teacup in his hand and asked, "have they done something in your hand?"
Jin kui'an said with a gloomy face, "they robbed some things from me. I have to get them back."
The mayor pulled the corners of his mouth and lied to ghosts. If other officers and soldiers were possible, how could Zhou man's children who love to enjoy and jump take risks to rob a group of horse thieves?
I'm afraid they have something that Jin kui'an likes, so they spend so much time looking for someone.
The mayor pondered for a while. According to the schedule, now people arrive in Shazhou early. They should have been halfway back in the heavy rain, right?
The mayor took a sip of tea and knew it.
So when the housekeeper came back from the outside and whispered a lot of nonsense in his ear, he said to Jin kui'an with a deep look: "there are really such a group of people, but they have already left."
Jin kui'an hurriedly asked, "how long have they gone?"
The mayor said with a smile: "for a long time, they only stopped here for two days. After careful calculation, they have left for more than 30 days. I heard that they are going to the western regions. At this time, their Kung Fu should be almost here?"
Jin kui'an was stunned, "how is this possible? We chased all the way and didn't see them... "
The mayor drank all the tea in the cup and said carelessly, "doesn't that mean they have gone far? I said, brother, your time is too long. For more than 30 days, the wind and sand in the desert have wiped away all the traces. If it weren't for something special, there's really no need to find it, otherwise you're going to catch up with the western regions? "
Jin kui'an was cold in his eyes, clenched his fist and said, "I'm already in the western regions, and there's nothing impossible."
The mayor's eyebrows jumped slightly. Then he remembered and asked, "by the way, where is brother?"
Jin kui'an pulled his mouth and said, "brother Wu, don't worry. My people and territory are outside the pass. I won't rob the territory with you."
Mayor:... Don't worry, OK? Those people should have gone out of the pass now?
It's really unlucky, although it has nothing to do with him.
The mayor thought about it and thought that he might lose a long-term partner, especially Zhou man. But he promised him that he would go back to the town to see him when the western regions came back. Maybe he could leave some more prescriptions at that time
On this thought, the mayor was too lazy to deal with him again. He waved and said, "brother, if the person you are looking for is far away, I won't keep my brother. There are many young people in the town. They are all young guys. I'm afraid they will get together and have an accident."
