Chapter 448: Two Groups
"Did I hear correctly?" Xu Ping'an raised his eyebrows. "Are you here to help us?"
Why did he feel like he was listening to a fairy tale?
The big boss behind Baixintang actually said he would help them.
Did he really hear it right?
Being questioned, Huangfu Cheng was not angry and nodded, "You heard me right, I am here to help you. Are you surprised and delighted?"
Xu Pingan shrugged, "There were no accidents or surprises, but there were shocks.
But I don’t think so.”
They dare not trust people who are not their own, and they may not even know if they are being cheated.
What's more, they are hostile forces and have fought each other to the death before.
Huangfu Cheng shook his head, "Are you sure?
So you're planning to fight her one against thirteen and then go join her?
I'm telling you, don't be naive. They're not ordinary people, but dedicated warriors trained by Beiling. If you face them, two fists are no match for four.
I was afraid that if you didn't make it up, you would all be killed halfway up the mountain."
Beiling dead soldiers?
Xu Ping'an narrowed his eyes. He didn't believe that the other party would be kind enough to tell them this.
He must have other intentions.
No wonder the young lady hadn't sent any news out. It turned out to be because the other party was too powerful and they were no match for them.
Xu Ping'an's face was gloomy. "What do you want?"
"If I say I am trying to please your eldest daughter, you will definitely not believe me." Huangfu Cheng shook his head:
"So I found an excuse for myself. Want to hear it?"
Xu Ping'an, "..."
This person is so confusing.
"explain!"
Xu Ping'an's voice was a little hoarse. He wanted to see what tricks this man would play.
"They are going to transport a batch of supplies back to Beiling today, and my goal is to rob this batch of supplies and not let them transport it back to Beiling. Is this reason acceptable?" Huangfu Cheng curled the corners of his mouth slightly.
Kill two birds with one stone, what a perfect reason.
Xu Ping'an looked him up and down, assessing how much truth there was in his words.
Huangfu Cheng didn't say anything and let him look at him.
At this moment, a thin man appeared not far away.
He was very fast. Before Xu Pingan and the others could react, he was already in front of Huangfu Cheng:
"My Lord, they are about to go down the mountain."
Huangfu Cheng nodded and turned to look at him:
"Did you find any trace of Madam Xu in the mountains?"
The thin man shook his head, "No.
From last night till now, nothing unusual has been found on the mountain, and there has been no disturbance.
I didn't see any trace of Madam Xu either.
The security there is very tight. Even if Madam Xu managed to escape, she would probably have found a place to hide and wouldn't dare show up easily."
Huangfu Cheng waved his hand and asked him to continue monitoring the movements on the mountain.
After arranging all this, Huangfu Cheng looked at Xu Ping'an:
"So, are you sure you want to cooperate?
I can assure you that if you guard here, you will never be able to stop them. They never come in or out through here. They have built a secret passage that leads directly to the mountain.
Do you want to follow me to the exit and ambush them first, and then go up the mountain to rescue them?"
The location of the entrance and exit of this secret passage was found out after he sacrificed many talents.
Xu Ping'an and Xu Pingnan looked at each other, and the answer appeared in each other's eyes.
"How can I trust you? What if you stab us in the back?"
"I want to stab you in the back, but there's no need to go through so much trouble." Huangfu Cheng shook his head, a hint of sarcasm on his lips:
"If I yell here, how many people do you think will come down and kill you?"
Xu Pingan was speechless for a moment and could only shake his head:
“You win!”
Huangfu Cheng chuckled, "I still want to be your son-in-law of Yuancheng. Do you think I dare to cheat you? Let's go, let's play a trick!"
There was a hint of calculation in Huangfu Cheng's eyes.
Xu Ping'an rolled his eyes. It was too early to become the son-in-law of Yuancheng.
…
Lin Mo found what he was looking for and just happened to see these people driving the carriage away from the secret passage.
Looking at the team of sixty people, a dark light flashed in Lin Mo's eyes.
Even with half of our men missing, it shouldn't be a problem to take this hill.
However, the mountain is heavily guarded, and it is impractical to attack from the bottom.
You can consider splitting your troops into two groups and attacking from the secret passage and the foot of the mountain at the same time to catch them off guard.
Thinking of this, Lin Mo quickly caught up with the carriage in front.
She had to find out how they got in and out of this secret passage.
Looking at this old secret passage, Lin Mo could only sigh that these people really spared no effort.
Lin Mo followed the carriage into the secret passage, but did not notice that the prison cell had already discovered that she was missing.
The person in charge of guarding the cell was originally supposed to bring food to Han Ting.
After all, Han Ting is still useful to them. If he starves to death, it will be of no benefit to them.
But he didn't expect that when he entered the deepest part of the cell, he found that the lock had been broken and the person was no longer in the cell.
"broken!"
The guard threw the food in his hand aside and rushed out immediately.
"Something happened, Han Ting ran away!"
"Quick, seal off the surroundings, don't let him escape, quick!"
…
Just when the mountain was in chaos, Lin Mo followed the carriage out of the secret passage, and at the same time figured out how to open and close the secret passage.
Hiding in the space, she looked at the scenery below the mountain and let out a breath of foul air.
This place is so remote, who would have thought that there is a secret passage leading to the mountain.
He looked around, found a direction and prepared to leave to find Xu Ping'an and others.
But after she took a few steps, she saw Xu Ping'an and...
Lin Mo's pupils shrank slightly, Huangfu Cheng.
How could Xu Ping'an be with Huangfu Cheng?
Seeing them staring at the carriage, Lin Mo's heart skipped a beat.
No way, they want to rob the things in this carriage.
Fool, this carriage is full of stones, what are you robbing it for?
Wouldn't it be better for the Third Prince to stay in the disgusting Beiling?
Looking at the two people who were ready to make a move, Lin Mo became anxious.
She quickly dodged to a hidden place to the side, and after making sure that there was no one around, she immediately came out of the space.
Then, when they made their move, he would appear behind them in time, put his hands on their shoulders, and lower his voice:
"Don't move!"
"Who?" Xu Ping'an was shocked. He reached out to touch the sword and turned his head.
When he turned around and saw Lin Mo, he was delighted, "Young Madam."
"Shh!" Lin Mo shook her head at him, silencing him.
Huangfu Cheng didn't expect to run into Lin Mo at this time. He raised his eyebrows and said, "What a coincidence."
Lin Mo rolled her eyes at him.
What a coincidence?
Now is not the time to talk. If she could talk, she would like to ask him why he is here and why he is mixing with her people.
It must have been this guy's idea to come here and rob these carriages.
He actually dared to target her people and let them take risks with him. Very good, she would remember it!
Huangfu Cheng got himself into trouble.
Seeing the carriage ahead about to go away, Huangfu Cheng frowned and said, "It's time to take action. If we don't, they'll take away the supplies.
They are going to be sent to Beiling, and we can’t let them take it away.”
As he said that, Huangfu Cheng was about to get up and chase after him.
"Don't go!"
Lin Mo pressed her hands on his shoulders again, applying a little pressure so that he couldn't move.
"Let them transport it back."
Lin Mo's face was full of meaning.
Huangfu Cheng was unable to move. He frowned, and finally gave up struggling. He could only watch the carriage go away.
It seems that it cannot be intercepted now.
He could only find another place to intercept them. He would never allow these supplies to be transported to Beiling.
Lin Mo glanced at the carriage going away and lowered his voice:
"Walk!"
Then he turned around and walked in another direction.
There were people on guard near the entrance and exit of the secret passage. If they talked here recklessly, they would definitely be discovered.
After making sure that the surroundings were secretive enough and not easily discovered, Lin Mo took the initiative and directly asked Huangfu Cheng why he appeared here?
Xu Ping'an glanced at Huangfu Cheng and directly repeated his previous remarks.
Lin Mo glanced at him up and down:
"Is it that simple?"
"How complicated would it be otherwise?" Huangfu Cheng looked aggrieved:
"Isn't this just trying to please you?
After all, that little girl really listens to you, her sister-in-law, doesn't she?"
Lin Mo sneered, "I'm not a three-year-old child.
Do you think I will be fooled by your words?
Huangfu Cheng, you know they are from Beiling, but you still prevent them from transporting supplies back to Beiling. What do you want to do? What is your relationship with the Beiling royal family?
"If I say I have a grudge against their master, the Third Prince, and I can't stand his power, would you believe me?" Huangfu Cheng shrugged.
"Mrs. Xu, no wonder that little girl's eyes light up when she talks about you. You have such a vicious look."
Lin Mo rolled her eyes and said, "Stop flattering me, it's useless."
But at this moment, a calculation flashed in Lin Mo's eyes:
"Don't worry, sending the things in the carriage back will not only make the Third Prince vomit blood, but also make him feel disappointed.
But are you interested in cooperating with me to take down their hideout?
There are only a few dozen people up there now, so it's perfect for a one-shot deal, don't you think?"
Huangfu Cheng looked up and said, "Madam Xu, I like your suggestion.
Tell me your plan.
If you want to take down his lair, I don't mind being tricked by you once, after all, that's what I want to do next."
He guessed that he was plotting against him, and Lin Mo was not surprised at all.
The fact that Huangfu Cheng was able to break through the siege and inherit Baixin Hall, and use their hands to eliminate those who were unfavorable to him, proves that he is not a stupid person.
And she likes to cooperate with smart people. Lin Mo's lips curled slightly:
"Divide the troops into two groups!"
