Chapter 277 Dark Rapids
Lord Bao and his party came to Shangqiu City. Many officials knew the news and came to the front of the city gate in advance to greet Lord Bao. At this time, someone quickly flew to the front of Lord Bao's sedan chair. "Your Excellency, there are many Shangqiu officials in front of you, you see..."
Lord Bao lifted the curtain of the sedan chair, "Okay, let's stop the sedan chair. I also want to see these officials!"
With an order, the sedan chair landed. Lord Bao came out of the sedan chair and looked at the front. The dark was full of people. The four arresters accompanied him, and several heroes were also accompanied by them. Lord Bao came to the front of the team and looked around. These officials had been waiting for a long time. Lord Bao asked the team to be outside the city first. If you are stationed, you won't go inside. It's not easy to arrange because there are many people. The little head of the army is in charge here. The rest of the people all came to the front of the gate. These officials rushed to this side like a tide and knelt down one after another. "Your Excellency, we welcome you to enter the city!"
Lord Bao looked at whether these officials had their own selfishness, "Everyone is free to take care of themselves!" Get up!"
These people all stood up. Lord Zuo, the magistrate of Shangqiu, named Zuo Shouyi, quickly came to the front and smiled, "Lord Bao, I have been waiting here for a long time. I know that you must go through Shangqiu when you return to the capital. We have prepared it for you in advance. Please come to the city with me. We will climb with the adults. Let's talk!"
Lord Bao looked at his eyes, as if there was something wrong. Lord Bao had been in officialdom for a long time and knew these things very well, and he was also very accurate. He could see other people's thoughts at a glance. At a glance, Zuo Shouyi's eyes seemed to be a little murderous, and he knew that things seemed to be a little bad. But in order to know the truth of the matter, I must go out myself to find out the details. Even if it is the Longtan Tiger Cave in front of me, I have to break through! Looking at the other officials, these people looked like they were smiling! Lord Bao understood*. I feel that there must be something in it. Is this called salute before soldiers? I'd like to see what tricks they are going to play!
Thinking of this, Lord Bao called Zhang Feng over and lowered his voice and said to him, "Zhang Feng, tell the 3,000 elite soldiers that they must closely monitor the movement around them!" If something happens, you must be cautious. I just found that the eyes of these people are a little different, so I assert that something may happen when we enter the city, and you must be prepared. In case something really happens inside, you should keep calm outside. I think even if something happens, they I dare not do anything to us! At least for the time being, we are safe!"
"Your excellency, what's the better way to prevent these people from entering the city together? In that case, won't we have a much better chance of winning?
"No! As soon as this attracts their attention and scares the snakes. We can't ruin a big deal because of this. If so many of us come in case we enter and be knocked at the door and beat the dog, our situation will be very dangerous. I always feel that there is an unspeakable power hidden in this Shangqiu City! This time we enter the dangerous place, we must adapt to all kinds of changes!"
Zhang Feng nodded and was about to leave when Lord Bao stopped him again. "Zhang Feng, you still have Zhao Yun, Wang Yu and Ma Xue left outside the city, just in case something happens to us, you are solely responsible for the matter here, and you can act on your own! Remember? In addition, pick another 100 strong soldiers for me as my guard and follow me to the city!"
Zhang Feng nodded and went to prepare. The rest of the people, Lord Bao, Tao Yuan, Yuer, Wang Yanling, Liu Ruyan, Sun Qiniang, Beixia, Nanxia, and Xiaoxia Gu Xiaoyi, entered Shangqiu City. Lord Bao wanted to take some guards into it. Which one dared to stop him? These officials snored, like stars holding the moon, and took Lord Bao and others into Shangqiu City...
First of all, I came to the post station in Shangqiu. These post stations are all prepared for the officials who come and go. Others can't live. After staying at the post station, Lord Bao said, "Lord Zuo, I'm not used to so many people. I should go back. There is no need to go back because of my arrival. Just have some of your backbone officials stay. Let the rest be scattered. I don't like a lot of people, which makes me upset!"
Zuo Shouyi quickly gave the order. All the people who should disperse dispersed, and there were only a few people left. There were only a few magistrates and guards. Zuo Shouyi said, "Lord Bao, you are very tired all the way. Why don't you take a rest here now and look at the sky. It's still early before dinner time. You can rest first. At night, the villain What do you think of arranging it for Lord Bao in person?
Lord Bao nodded, "Okay, then bother Lord Zuo and several guard adults!"
These people went down together. Lord Bao saw them leave, went back to the room with everyone, and then said to everyone, "I think there seems to be an unspeakable power hidden in this Shangqiu city!" We should be more cautious!"
Everyone, look at me. I look at you. I don't know why Lord Bao said this. Tao Yuan asked, "Your Excellency, I didn't see anything?" Where is the power of estuary? Why can't I feel it at all?"
Lord Bao smiled and said, "Ha ha, with my many years of official experience, when we were outside the city, their eyes were a little wrong, especially this Lord Zuo. I think there must be something in their hearts. We are really in high-rums when we come back this time, but I think they have other meanings! Anyway, it's not a bad thing for everyone to be careful and enter the first-level combat readiness state and prepare for a war at any time!"
Everyone nodded and immediately ordered their 100 strong soldiers to patrol the surrounding movements in turn, find everything and immediately return it, but the inspection must be hidden, not only to make others feel absent-minded, but also to make others feel that you are indifferent! But I always remember in my heart and try to find out the situation! And you must keep an eye on everything around you! Don't relax!
Order to pass, everyone will do it, and then everyone will study the countermeasures in the room, what will happen, and how should we deal with it! Lord Bao said, "Everyone here can do martial arts. I may become a drag on everyone. If something happens, please remember that I am absolutely safe. Even if they want to attack me, they will not kill me, because my use is much greater than yours, so I won't die. You can Let go of your hands and feet to do things, and you must find out the root cause here, so as to general!"
Bei Xia said, "I agree with the adult's statement. Why don't we take a pre-emptive and send a few people around first to check which house to check to see if there is anything unusual in Shangqiu, so that we can prepare early!"
What Beixia said is reasonable. This task was given to Beixia and Nanxia. The two old chivalrous men were thoughtful and assured that there was no accident, so the two of them went, and the rest of the people stood at the post to accompany Lord Bao, waiting for their news, and also protected the safety of the adults!
The singular Beixia and Nanxia, after leaving the station, looked at the sun. It's still early, and there are still a few hours before dinner. Beixia said, "Brother, this task is very difficult. We have to act separately. I'll go to the magistrate's office and go to guarding the lord's house. They all It's the protagonist singing here. Let's see what the protagonist is saying behind it. Do something!" Jiang Hua nodded and was about to leave when Beixia stopped him again, "Brother, we may have been surrounded by eyeliners! Our every move may be in the sight of others. We can't go out like this. We have to pretend to be two people who go out to buy things!"
As he spoke, Beixia took out five taels of silver from his pocket and deliberately amplified his voice, "Brother, I don't know if there is any interesting place in Shangqiu or any delicious food. They all say that it is the closest to the capital. Let's go out and have a look!"
"Brother, don't go. Lord Bao is resting at the post station. Will he be worried when we go out?"
"Alas! Don't worry, Lord Bao will sleep and won't wake up for a while! Let's go out at ease. They are all tired and don't want to go out for a walk here. Then we can go by ourselves and have nothing to say to them!"
"What you said makes sense, so where are we going? We don't know where it's lively!"
"Alas, let's take a walk and have a look. If the money in your hand is not spent, it's really not willing to go!"
