Fenzhou, the county seat of Xihe County.
"Mr. Mo, how did you guys sleep last night? Are you all about to rest?"
The best inn in the county, the lobby on the first floor of Penglai Inn, Li
Tai asked Mo Chui while having breakfast with Tie Dan and others.
A total of thirty-two members of the Assassin Project were dispatched this
time. Most of them are students, and some are gentlemen from the physics
department of the academy. In any case, the gentlemen of the academy are older
than the students and have more experience in living abroad. To be richer, so
the students' food and daily life along the way are arranged by the gentlemen
such as Mo Huai!
"Haha! This inn is not bad, it's quiet at night, I just saw everyone was in
good spirits, I think we should have a good rest last night! After a while
after breakfast, we will leave, it is more than a hundred from Taiyuan
Mansion. The journey will definitely not be in time today. We will not stop at
noon, and strive to get a foothold in Qixian before dark, start from Qixian
tomorrow morning, and arrive in Taiyuan probably by the evening of tomorrow!"
Mo Chui smiled and replied lightly.
This time I led all the teachers and students to the north, and the "activity
funds" provided by the academy were quite sufficient. Before leaving, Yan Silu
specifically confessed to him that the teachers and students of the academy
must eat, drink and live well along the way. Don't feel sorry for the money,
this is what Yan Silu meant, and it was also what Li Zexuan meant!
Because the thirty-two people in this line are all elite members of the
Academy’s Assassin Project, they are the “baby bumps” of the Academy. This
time, the journey to the north is far away and the traffic has been
exhausting. The students have already worked very hard. Naturally, it is
impossible for the Academy to be here. They suffered from food and housing!
So on the way from Lantian County to Xihe County, Mo Chui took the people from
the college to live in the best inn, eating the most delicious food, in order
to alleviate the pain of the students on the road. !
"Well! Then bring some dry food, and strive to arrive in Qi County this
evening!"
Li Tai nodded and decided to say.
Although he is a student and Mo Chui is the husband, he is the commander-in-
chief of this northward operation, and he should naturally be the one who
makes the final decision.
Moreover, Mo Chui also recognized Li Tai's talent in engineering, so along the
way, he did not feel uncomfortable with Li Tai looking at the overall
situation and commanding and dispatching. On the contrary, he was willing to
help Li Tai check the gaps, because Li Tai Although he was born in a royal
family, he was born with a certain commanding ability, but after all he was
young, and he was not as rich as Mo Chui in terms of life experience. Often at
this time, he needed Mo Chui to come forward!
After the two agreed, Duguxin walked in from outside and whispered in Li Tai's
ear: "His Royal Highness, the final general has ordered the scout team to
clear the way first, and the rest of the army can move out at any time,
waiting for Your Highness to come out of the city and meet!"
Although Mo Chui had packaged the entire inn last night, and there were no
other guests in the lobby of the inn at this time, Duguxin, who was used to
staying in the army, had a strong sense of alertness, so he chose to use this
way of speaking. To avoid revealing the whereabouts of Li Tai and others!
This time, along with all the teachers and students of the academy, there were
also a thousand imperial imperial troops led by Duguxin and Dugu Feiying. As
this mission involved confidentiality, they did not alarm the local government
along the way. The county was only from the academy. People enter the city to
live in an inn, and a thousand forbidden troops are secretly stationed outside
the city. Under normal circumstances, Duguxin will take a few guards to
protect Li Tai, and Dugu Feiying will lead the army outside the city!
It’s not that Li Tai, Mo Chui and others are treating them differently, but
the students and gentlemen of the academy are definitely not as good as the
soldiers who have been working with them for many years. The chariots and
horses on this road are already very hard. If they were allowed to sleep in
camps outside the city like the Forbidden Army, it is estimated that most of
the people in the academy would have fallen before they arrived in Taiyuan!
"Hmm! Are the materials in the academy safe?"
Li Tai nodded and asked softly.
This trip to the north was mainly to build a telegraph relay station. When
coming out of Lantian County, three carriages of the college’s carriages were
loaded with machinery, parts and other materials needed to build a telegraph
relay station. Naturally, such important things cannot be brought. Enter the
city and bring them into the inn. If they are caught by a thief, they will be
blind after walking so far. Therefore, the supplies of the academy have always
been guarded by the forbidden army under Duguxin's all the way!
"Your Highness, don't worry, the supplies are all right!"
Duguxin replied briefly.
It is impossible to take away the supplies of the college if the enemy can
send five thousand soldiers and horses to kill all the 1,000 forbidden forces.
Otherwise, it is impossible to take the supplies of the college.
"That's good!"
Li Tai nodded. At this time, he had almost eaten. He got up and said to the
surrounding Tiedan, Meng Wenhao, Mo Chui and others: "Everyone hurry up and
eat and drink. After eating, go back to the room to pack things, and leave the
city together in half a quarter of an hour. !"
"Yes!"
Everyone whispered.
Not far away, the shopkeeper and the young man in the inn did not dare to say
a word or even look at this side because Duguxin and the people around him all
had swords in their hands. It was not good to see them. Lord of trouble!
Everyone in business understands that more is worse than less. The inn’s
shopkeeper ordered his servants to wait for Li Tai's group with care last
night, don’t ask anything that shouldn’t be asked. He only treats Li Tai as a
foreign county. The tyrants of a certain place pass by here, can they not
provoke them without provoking them!
Half a quarter of an hour later, all the thirty-two people from the academy
plus Dugu Xin and other people left the inn and walked out of the city gate.
As for the accommodation expenses, Mo Chui had already settled the inn
shopkeeper.
"The shopkeeper, what do you say these people are from? The carriages they
ride are all made by Qiquge!"
After Li Tai and others left, the inn Xiaoer couldn't help but ask.
"Perhaps which family's son is traveling~!"
Although the shopkeeper was also curious in his heart, he faintly responded to
Xiao Si's words, said.
"Hey! The plump juvenile just now must be the son of the big family, and the
person who just walked in is the guard of their house. It's just that I look
at the young man sitting next to him, it doesn't seem to be him. My servant!"
The young man squeezed his chin, guessing seriously.
"Slap~!"
It’s just that his voice fell silent, and the shopkeeper’s slap fell on the
back of his head. He just listened to the shopkeeper’s angrily roaring: "Are
you idle, who are you in charge of, and what is the source of it? Quickly lead
someone. The tables are cleaned and the rooms are tidied up!"
The little boy was in pain for a while, and quickly jumped to the side,
rubbing the back of his head and replied: "Oh! I'm going now!"
"Hey! Curiosity kills the cat, this kid will suffer sooner or later!"
The shopkeeper muttered to himself while looking at the young man's back.
However, his attention was quickly attracted by the pile of Tang Yuan on the
counter in front of him, which was the room money that Mo Chui had just paid
him. Penglai Inn is also the largest inn in Xihe County. There are nearly 50
guest rooms. Li Tai and his party booked the inn this time, and the room was a
lot of money for one night!
"What do they do? Just pay for the room!"
The shopkeeper picked up the pile of Tang Yuan and said with a smile.
"Yo~! Guest officer, are you eating or staying in the shop so early?"
At this moment, a big man with dark skin and coarse cloth short coat came
outside the door. Xiao Er hurriedly greeted him, but the big man ignored him
at all and walked straight to the shopkeeper at the counter.
"The shopkeeper, did you have dozens of teenagers staying in your inn last
night?"
The big man knocked on the accounting table, and looked at the shopkeeper and
asked in an authentic Guanzhong accent.
"Oh, guest officer, here is where we live, not a place to inquire about news!"
The shopkeeper's eyes narrowed. He listened to the accent of the other party,
and knew that the other party was probably from the capital area, but the
other party was dressed and dressed and didn't look like a rich person at all,
so he didn't bother to take care of it!
"Slap~!"
Unexpectedly, the big man took out a hanging copper coin from his waist,
slapped it in front of the shopkeeper, and said, "This is consistent money. If
you answer certain questions truthfully, a certain family would like to thank
you!"
For Tang Chu, whose prices are extremely low, the consistent money is
considered a huge sum of money in the eyes of ordinary people. The shopkeeper
is naturally rich, not bad for the consistent money, but by answering a few
questions, you can Getting consistent money is still a very cost-effective
business for him, but he is a little strange, isn't it too heavy for him to
hang so much copper?
Here, I have to say that since the establishment of the Yanhuang Bank and the
court personally came out to promote Tang Yuan, more and more people in Datang
began to use Tang Yuan slowly and gradually accepted the convenience brought
by Tang Yuan. , Almost no one would be willing to use copper coins anymore,
especially in the Guanzhong area. At present, it is basically difficult to see
copper coins in large transactions in many states and counties!
"Hehe! Good to talk! Good to talk!"
The shopkeeper smiled and reached out to take the copper coin that the big man
had patted on the table, and then said: "There were indeed a group of
teenagers and a few adults staying at this inn last night. Why did this guest
inquire about this?"
"Don't ask if you shouldn't ask!"
The big man glanced at the shopkeeper indifferently. There was no trace of
emotion or vitality in his eyes. He then asked, "How many people are there in
their party? How many are there in young people and adults?"
"Um, this...there are about thirty-eight people in total, of which there seem
to be more than 20 teenagers, um... the old man can't remember the exact
number. Among the adults, it seems that there are five or six guards of one of
the teenagers. !"
The shopkeeper recalled for a moment and replied.
"Five or six guards? Then do you know where they are going and what are they
doing there?"
The big man asked again.
When the shopkeeper heard the words, he waved his hand and said: "This guest
officer, you laughed, I'm just the shopkeeper of the inn, where do I know
this? And we come to the inn, but we never inquire about the secrets of our
guests!"
"Huh~?"
Hearing this, the big man instantly changed his face and showed a fierce look.
The shopkeeper was taken aback, couldn't help taking two steps back, and said
quickly: "This guest officer, the old man really doesn't know about this,
and... and the county government office is not far from our inn..."
The implication is that you'd better not make trouble here, or the county
government will send you over to jail for a while!
After all, the shopkeeper winked at Xiao Er who was not far away, and Xiao Er
nodded and cautiously leaned toward the door. He wanted to go to the county
government to report to the official!
"Humph!"
Dahan paused for a moment and snorted. He obviously noticed the actions of
Xiao Er behind him. It stands to reason that he can tie up both the shopkeeper
and Xiao Er at this time. But then, he will definitely be wanted by the
government. , He did not continue to struggle with the shopkeeper, but turned
and left.
As for what he said earlier, "Another heavy thanks", it is naturally
impossible!
"The shopkeeper, this person is definitely not a beloved person. I'm afraid
that the young man who just left is not in danger. Should we report to the
government?
Xiao Er went out to look, and saw that the big man disappeared on the street,
he hurried in and said to the shopkeeper behind the counter.
This young man is not stupid yet, he can see that the previous big man asked
Li Tai and his party's whereabouts to be unkind, so he suggested that the
shopkeeper go directly to the officer.
"Report your head, take care of your business, and get out of work!"
But the shopkeeper didn't think so. He was just a business man. He didn't know
Li Tai and the big guy just now. He couldn't guilty of offending the other
party for their side.
"Oh~! Yes, the shopkeeper~!"
Xiao Er rubbed the back of his head and left in surprise.

On the official road from Xihe County to Qi County~www.mtlnovel.com~ Twelve
carriages loaded with machines and parts necessary for the teachers and
students of the academy and the construction of the telegraph relay station
were escorted by more than a thousand imperial palaces and marched toward the
northeast. .
Now that the large team has left the county seat, there is nothing to hide
from the imperial army carried by Duguxin. This group of people looks like the
imperial army is escorting something to the north. Nowadays, there are heavy
soldiers on the northern border of Datang. The situation between the two
countries Suddenly nervous, there are usually many food transport teams
rushing north from Guanzhong, so it is not surprising that people on the road
see the team of Duguxin!
It's just that none of them knew that in that carriage, sat the current King
Wei and more than 30 teachers and students of Yanhuang Academy!
"Tiedan, Wenhao, what do you think the leader is doing now?"
In the carriage, Li Tai suddenly spoke out inexplicably.
The iron egg sitting opposite him frowned at this moment, paused for a moment,
and replied: "Before we left the academy, Master had already entered the
barracks. Should we now train soldiers in the Xuanjia Army?"
Meng Wenhao turned his head and looked at Li Tai. He didn't understand what Li
Tai meant when he mentioned Li Zexuan.
Li Tai sighed and said:
"Last time you went north to kill the locusts, the mountain leader was with
you, so even if you encounter problems like this on the road, the mountain
leader can solve it for you. But this time you went to the north to repair the
telegraph relay station, the mountain leader did not have time to do it again.
I am ahead, but in terms of strategizing ability, how can I be as long as the
mountain? It's good to go to Taiyuan. I am worried that if we go to Yunzhou,
if the Turkic people know our purpose, I am afraid they will not give up! I
always feel vaguely, we This journey will not be too smooth!"
