Chapter 188 Finally did something human
"What?"
Mengzi pinched the man's mouth open, and a stream of dirty black blood flowed out from the corner of his mouth. "He had poison in his mouth. He bit himself to death."
"Oh, he committed suicide by biting himself with poison."
Mengzi's face was a little gloomy. Usually, these people were trained assassins. The other party actually sent assassins to follow them. The people behind them must be powerful. "Check every car carefully to see if there are any Tibetans."
"yes."
Qiao Yang looked at the dead man and couldn't help wondering, "How did Uncle Meng find him hiding under the car?"
"I was following behind a car just now and found water flowing out from under the car." Mengzi was not always walking in the front, but was patrolling back and forth. When he walked to the back, he found water flowing out of a car. He thought something was wrong and ran to the side of the car. Seeing that the driver did not behave normally, he guessed that there might be someone hiding under the car.
This allowed the team to stop and rest in order to pull out the "leech" that was attached to the car.
"Captain, we have checked other cars and found no one."
Mengzi was worried, so he checked again personally. Only after he made sure that there was no one there did he let everyone get on the bus and continue on their journey.
However, he did not go to the Northern Wilderness immediately. Instead, after arriving in the Northern Wilderness, he kept circling outside.
After the previous experience, no one questioned anything and followed Mengzi quietly until it got dark and it was too dark to see the road. Only then did Mengzi let them enter the northern wilderness and head towards the Tiger Camp.
"Uncle Meng, is someone following us?" Qiao Yang came to Meng Zi and asked in a low voice.
Mengzi nodded. He had not noticed it at first, but after the person hiding under the car hanged himself, the other party might have been anxious and slightly exposed his whereabouts.
"These bastards, I really want to kill them with one blow."
"We don't know how many people there are on the other side, so don't act rashly."
Qiao Yang held back his anger and said, "Don't worry, Uncle Meng, I won't be impulsive."
Mengzi let the team go first and he stayed behind. After entering the northern wilderness, it would not be easy for those people to catch up with them. However, the grain was very heavy and the carts would leave obvious marks on the ground. He stayed behind to smooth out these marks.
Mengzi's guess was correct. After those people followed the team into the northern wilderness, they lost their way because it was too dark. They wanted to track based on the traces on the ground, but there were no traces left on the ground. They could only continue to move forward in the direction of Tiger Camp based on the direction they had previously searched.
Mengzi hid in the dark and watched those people slowly approaching the team. He lurked behind them silently, like a cheetah lurking in the dark. He saw the right opportunity and quickly moved forward to cover the mouth and nose of the last person, and before the other person could react, he twisted his neck.
"Who!" The person in front heard the noise behind him and turned around quickly, but saw nothing.
"Everyone, don't disperse. Be careful in the dark."
"yes."
Just as he finished speaking, another person's neck was broken.
The body was dragged silently into the grass.
Just when Mengzi was about to attack again, he was discovered by the person in front.
"There's someone here, be careful!"
Mengzi swung the sword in his hand and slashed at the opponents. In less than a quarter of an hour, five people fell to the ground. A stream of blood spurted out from each of their necks. Their bodies fell to the ground and twitched continuously until all the blood was drained out and they died.
Mengzi put the bodies in an abandoned cave, covered them with wild grass, and set out to chase the team after he had packed up.
Number 4, who was guarding the gate wall, found a team approaching, so he led his men out of the gate, bypassed the formation, hid in the dark and observed the approaching team. After confirming that the people coming were Qiao Yang and his team, Number 4 came out from the dark.
"The Second Young Master is back."
Qiao Yang was frightened and glared at him angrily, "You are dead, why didn't you make any sound when you came out?"
Number Four curled his lips. He was just that alert, and he was still blaming him for walking without making any sound?
"It's getting late, you should go back first, Second Young Master."
Qiao Yang snorted and rode his horse back to the Tiger Camp proudly. If it wasn't so late, he would have gone to Su Ying to take credit for what he did so well on his first trip out of the camp!
Hu Wei hadn't slept the whole time. He knew his brother's character. Even though Mengzi was with him, he still couldn't help but worry.
"Commander, the second young master is back."
Hu Wei stood up from his chair upon hearing that, but after hearing the unsteady sound of someone coming up the stairs, he slowly sat back down.
After a moment, Qiao Yang came in excitedly, "Brother, your brother has completed the task you assigned to me. Zhang Liang exchanged all the money he earned from selling charcoal for rice."
Hu Wei nodded with a straight face, "Not bad, I finally did something humane."
Qiao Yang: “???”
"Brother, are you praising me?"
"yes."
"Commander, have all the rice and flour been put into the warehouse?" One of his men walked in and asked.
Hu Wei was a little confused. A few dozen taels of silver couldn't buy much grain, so he could just put it in the warehouse. Why did they ask him why? He stood up and walked out, and saw more than a dozen carts slowly being filled with rice bags. He stared at Qiao Yang in shock, "Did you go robbing?"
"Brother, please don't wrongly accuse me. I am a good person. These are all given by Zhang Liang. He said that we should bring back the rice first. As for the silver he owes, Yue can just use charcoal to pay him back."
How much charcoal does that take?
Hu Wei didn't expect that Zhang Liang was such a loyal man.
"Okay, where's Brother Meng? Why didn't I see him come back with you?"
"Uncle Meng is covering our retreat. When we came back, a few bastards secretly followed us. Luckily, Uncle Meng found them. Otherwise, it would be troublesome if they followed us back."
Hu Wei's face darkened when he heard this, "Those people really didn't give up."
"Brother, is the eldest prince of Chu really that powerful? He can't send troops to deal with us, right?"
Hu Wei didn't know, but he felt that it was unlikely that Chu would dispatch a large number of troops to deal with them. He was also aware of the friction between Chu and the Southern Kingdom over the years. The troops at the pass were not enough to deal with the Southern Kingdom. Even if they wanted to deal with them, they would never send a large number of troops.
However, the eldest prince has the support of a country after all, so they should try to avoid him.
"At the end of the month, after the charcoal trade, no one should leave the camp."
"good."
As the two brothers were talking, they saw Li Yong running over in a hurry, "Commander, something bad has happened. The governor of the North District has been injured."
Hu Wei was shocked and immediately left the Tiger Camp with Qiao Yang.
