Chapter 378, search on
For a few days.
Ye Guoming and Tongtou took two captains and more than 100 soldiers from the square and followed the direction of Meng Ting's escape that day to the east gate, like sweeping the cave, and have searched back and forth several times. They also expanded the direction of the search from south to north with the east gate as the center, within this range. Each family was turned over by them, and even the whole city was searched by them, but they couldn't find any trace of Long Fei and Meng Ting. The two people seemed to have evaporated from the world.
In the past few days, the two have hardly slept soundly. When they were tired and sleepy, they sat in a chair and rested for a while, and then went to search, and the soldiers they brought were also replaced by the second batch due to fatigue.
Even with the strength of the two, they are extremely tired at this time. As long as it is the drag of internal injury on the body, otherwise with their age and internal strength, they will not be tired for a few more days and nights. As long as the copper head does not dare to rest because of the heart of Long Fei, and the copper head does not rest, Ye Guoming cannot rest.
The two supported it until this time.
In fact, with Ye Jingzhong's excellent medical skills and good recovery ability, their internal injuries have gradually improved and have little impact on their actions.
However, although the internal injury can recover quickly with a strong body, the vitality will not recover so quickly, and the vitality will lead to the loss of internal force before it recovers, so the two will be as tired as they are now.
"Bronze head." Ye Guoming looked at the crumbling copper head standing on a high wall and shouted, "After our careful search and screening and your intuition, other areas have been excluded, leaving only this area, but we have searched twice in a row, but we still haven't found anything. If we continue to search, it will disturb the lives of civilians. They will have opinions. This area is all the houses of Song Chun's powerful millionaires. If they are angry, even Zhu Taishou will have some scruples.
Because the two have been in trouble for several days, the name has not been polite as before, and it has become a direct name.
The area mentioned by Ye Guoming is a large area connected to a bustling street connected to the east gate of Songchun City, where the houses are all shops of large businesses or rich people live.
The copper head stood on the wall, squinting and staring at this tall building. For a while, he muttered, "I always feel that Long Fei should hide in this place. This place makes me feel like a labyrinth. If you want to hide someone, this place is the best choice. "
"But we have searched this place twice, but we still haven't found any." Ye Guoming frowned and said, "If you search again, you will become a nuisance to the people. Maybe Mr. Zhu won't let us search again."
"Yes!" The copper head grabbed his hair in distress: "This is exactly where I can't figure it out. Did we still miss something?"
Ye Guoming tentatively said, "Why don't we scatter the army? As long as we set up checkpoints at a few gates, we won't be afraid that they will fly out."
Tongtou also thought about the feasibility of this method. Just as he was about to agree, he suddenly shocked and scolded himself, "How stupid, I can't imagine it."
jumped off the ground and said to Ye Guoming with an excited face, "I thought of the reason why we couldn't find anyone. His grandmother, we also missed a place without searching?"
Ye Guoming said, "Where is it?"
The copper head said, "Underground!"
Ye Guoming suddenly realized and suddenly became energetic: "Yes! Every underground building in this rich family must be extremely complicated. In addition to the kilns for storing food, there must be underground buildings such as underground tunnels that save lives. We almost missed it. So where shall we start?
The copper head pointed to a large street through the rich area: "Let's start from this side near the East Gate."
"Good!" Ye Guoming responded loudly. He knew that although Zhu Tong decentralized himself to search the whole city in the name of arresting assassins, no one in the city dared to have any objections, but he could not search endlessly. It was the limit to search twice. This third time would definitely make some people have opinions, so this third and the last search After that, whether Long Fei was found or not, he could only pause the search and change to other ways to find someone.
Knowing the importance of this search, Ye Guoming also attached great importance to it. He recruited the soldiers to his side and ordered them to go down in a low voice, and then led some soldiers to the east gate with the bronze head.
As soon as the two took the soldiers not far, they saw several carriages full of medicinal herbs from the other end of the street and walked towards the east gate.
As soon as the copper head moaned, several soldiers immediately went up and stopped in front of the carriage.
The first carriage was a manned carriage. When it saw someone blocking the road, it hurriedly stopped the carriage. The carriages connected to the back with medicinal herbs were also forced to stop. They lined up on the street and occupied most of the street. The medicinal materials almost twice as high as the carriage covered the street where the carriage stopped as cloudy.
A young man sitting on the chariot lifted the curtain, whispered a few words to it, and then listened attentively and kept nodding his head. The people inside seemed to be telling something.
Suddenly, the young man jumped out of the carriage and walked towards the bronze head and others. He stood in front of a captain who blocked the way and bowed down and said, "Masters, what's the matter with stopping our carriage?"
A captain named Zhang Heng said to the young man, "We are the people in the patrol room. The two generals behind want to check your vehicles of medicinal materials to prevent any taboos from being stolen out."
Jiading shouted at Zhang Heng and said, "Little man Ding Chajie, gathers the chief of the guard for drunkenness. This is just because of the shortage of sub-numbered medicinal materials in Liusha City and urgently need a large number of medicinal materials, so we will transport a batch to the emergency first. This car is full of medicinal materials, and there are no taboo items. Please check it clearly!"
Zhang Heng said seriously, "Brother Ding's name is like thunder. We know each other, but this is the order of the superior. It is difficult to violate the military order. Brother Ding, please forgive me." After saying hello, the soldiers will take action.
Ding Chajie hurriedly stopped and said, "Wait, wait, how about waiting for me to discuss with the main family before the two generals to take action?"
Zhang Heng said, "Our general's order will be implemented immediately. I dare not neglect it."
Ding Chajie said anxiously, "Just wait a while."
Zhang Heng said, "For the sake of your drunken gatherings and often give porridge to the people, we will search the car in half a minute."
Ding Chajie hurriedly ran to Ye Guoming and Tongtou and saluted respectfully: "Two generals, we have always been doing business in peace and did not offend Song Chuncheng's law. Why did the two generals search our carriages transporting medicinal materials? Is there any misunderstanding?"
Ye Guoming stared at Ding Chajie and did not answer immediately.
Ding Chajie also looked at Ye Guoming, with eager expectations and did not retreat at all.
After a long time, Ye Guoming said lightly, "There is no misunderstanding. Today, whether it is a car or a sedan car coming out of this street, or even a little blue man, will have to be searched. This is the rule of the superior. There is nothing I can do. Chief Ding, the guard should go back and tell your master, lest he really have a misunderstanding."
Ding Chajie had no choice but to run back to the carriage and whisper a few words respectfully to the carriage.
After a while, Ding Chajie lifted the curtain of the carriage, and an old man in his 70s came down from the carriage holding Ding Chajie's hand.
Although this man is not young, his square face is still white and smooth, with red faces and few wrinkles. If he hadn't seen his silver hair and white beard, he would have almost thought he was just a young man in his thirties.
The old man shook off Ding Chajie and held his hand, and walked to Ye Guoming and the others trembling with a crutch.
When Ye Guoming saw the old man, he hurriedly got off his horse and walked towards the old man.
The copper head was unknown, so he hurriedly got off the horse and followed.
Ye Guoming bowed to the old man and said respectfully, "Mr. Jin."
The old man held his crutches in his hands and looked at Ye Guoming without returning the gift. He smiled and said, "Who do you think it is? It turned out to be Ye Xian's nephew. How has Ye Lao always been good?"
Ye Guoming said respectfully, "Uncle is fine. Lao Jin misses Lao. Jin is not at home to enjoy happiness. He still has to escort the goods at such an old age."
The old man sighed and said, "I have been sitting at home for a long time. I feel depressed and want to go out for a walk. By the way, I will go to the sand city to see how the business of the subcolon is." He turned his head and looked at the copper head and said, "Which general is this?"
"I've met Mr. Jin!" The bronze head bowed and saluted, "The boy is called the bronze head, not the general."
The old man laughed and said, "Little brother is cheerful."
Ye Guoming immediately introduced the old man, "He is my friend, his name is Tongtou." Turning to Tongtou, he said, "This old man is Mr. Jin Zurong, the owner of Song Chuncheng's largest medicinal materials business. He often gives medicine and porridge to the people of Song Chuncheng. He is a famous good man in Song Chuncheng!"
The copper head was awed and bowed to Jin Zurong, "The boy just lost his respect!"
"Ha ha..." Jin Zurong smiled and stretched out his hand to help the bronze head and said, "Ye Xian's nephew is joking. Mr. Ye has good medical skills and saves lives and heals wounds. He is the great good man of Song Chuncheng's Wanjia Buddha. The little old man dares not be it."
"I admire Mr. Jin very much!" Ye Guoming smiled and said, "Uncle often said that temporary good deeds are nothing, but Mr. Jin has been giving porridge for more than ten years. Many people in Song Chuncheng survived because of Mr. Jin."
"Ha ha..." Jin Zurong smiled and changed the topic: "Two virtuous nephews set up cards on this street with sergeants. I don't know what's going on?"
"This is it!" Ye Guoming's face became serious: "The copper head sent his friend Long Fei to Song Chun for medical treatment. A few days ago, the robbers attacked Song Chuncheng. Long Fei was captured by pirates in the chaos. In order to save Long Fei, his little nephew took the order of the eunuch to lead troops to search the whole city. Today, he happened to find it here."
"Who is this dragonfly? Is it so important?" Jin Zurong doubted, "It's worth the order of the prince to search in person!"
"He is not an important person!" Tongtou smiled bitterly and said, "He is just a patient of Mr. Ye. This time he has suffered a complete disaster!"
"Oh!" Jin Zurong said, "No wonder you have to search the vehicles that come and go. This is right. Please search these cars as well."
Ye Guoming was embarrassed to say, "Whether it's a friend or a position today, I can't help but be polite. I hope Mr. Jin will forgive me!"
Jin Zurong laughed and said, "That's right. You're welcome."
Ye Guoming waved his hand, and the more than 100 soldiers walked over and carried down bags of medicinal materials piled up as high as a hill in the carriage. When moving each bag, they carefully pinched whether the medicinal materials contained in it were real.
Copper head and Ye Guoming stood next to watch in case there was a missed place.
