Chapter 456 Fubao: I’m really angry!
After Xu Lao Er came back, Xu Lao Da and Xu Lao San went to check under the trees on both sides and even checked a large area around them.
Boss Xu, who had the sharpest observation skills, also sighed at this moment.
However, it cannot be said that there were no discoveries.
At least, Boss Xu was certain that the person had chosen these two trees on the roadside to set the trap. Furthermore, the person must have set the trap shortly before their arrival, so that it wouldn't be triggered by someone else.
Thinking of this, Boss Xu immediately looked towards the high places on both sides of the road.
When he looked over, he actually discovered something.
"Second brother, you have good eyesight. Look at the hilltop in the southeast. Is there a person there?"
Boss Xu gently tugged at Boss Xu's sleeve and spoke in a low voice.
Xu Lao Er got the hint from his eldest brother and immediately looked over. Then he nodded and said, "Yes, there is a person, holding a piece of red rag in his hand!"
"That's right!"
Boss Xu smiled and said, "The other party is cooperating. The people on the mountain are responsible for observation, and then they use the red cloth in their hands to send signals. Then, the people who are stationed here set the trap. The target is us!"
This section of the road is a straight road, with only a turn ahead, and then you can see Anshun County. Therefore, such a short distance is enough for the person who set the trap to escape calmly.
Similarly, the person in charge of lookout also has enough time to leave.
The other party is still standing there watching, and ninety-nine percent of the time he thinks that even if they find him, they won't be able to catch him.
And this is indeed true.
"Can you see what that person looks like?"
"Brother, do you think I'm a god?"
Hearing his eldest brother's question, Xu Lao Er rolled his eyes.
"It's a pity that I don't have a telescope with me, otherwise I would be able to see it clearly!"
Boss Xu sighed.
They were too far away from the southeast hill, and if they charged in that direction, the people on the hill would have plenty of time to escape.
As a result, as soon as Boss Xu finished speaking, Second Xu rushed to his horse and took out a telescope from the bag hanging on the horse.
This was one of the spoils he seized at Huangfengkou.
He had originally intended to bring it back for the kids at home to play with, but he had thrown it into his bag and forgotten about it later. If Boss Xu hadn't mentioned it, he would have really forgotten he had a telescope in his hand.
Taking out the telescope, Xu Laoer immediately aimed at the small hill in the southeast.
By rotating the barrel of the telescope at high speed, Xu Laoer could quickly see what the person standing on the mountain looked like.
However, when he saw the person standing on the small hill in the southeast, Xu Laoer let out a long sigh.
"What's wrong? Did you see clearly?"
"I see clearly!"
Xu Lao Er put away the telescope in his hand, sighed, and said, "That man is dead!"
"What?!"
Hearing what Xu Lao Er said, Xu Lao Da and Xu Lao San both widened their eyes.
Boss Xu even snatched the binoculars from Old Second Xu's hand and looked over.
In terms of eyesight, Boss Xu was indeed not much better than Boss Xu, but through the telescope, he could still roughly see the people on the top of the mountain.
He is indeed dead!
The person who seems to be standing on the hillside is actually hanging from a tree.
"Want to go check it out?"
Xu Lao Er looked at his eldest brother.
Boss Xu shook his head and said, "No!"
"This is clearly leading us over!"
Boss Xu shook his head decisively.
Although it is impossible to confirm why the man was hanged there, it is 99% likely that the trap here did not work, so these people used other means.
If they go to the hillside over there, they will probably be attacked by such attacks along the way.
It is easy to dodge a spear, but hard to guard against an arrow from the dark.
As the old saying goes, you can't get a tiger cub without risking it.
But in reality, they didn't need to face these attacks directly. Since these people had already taken action, they would eventually confront them.
Rather than letting them dominate the battlefield, it is better to leave these people alone.
"Let's go home!"
Boss Xu got on his horse and told Second and Third Xu to get out of the way.
No matter what conspiracies and tricks you have, as long as I don’t follow your steps, what can you do to me?
Xu Lao Er and Xu Lao San didn't think much about it. Since their eldest brother said so, it meant that this way of doing things must be more reliable.
The three of them set off again, but this time, they did not gallop on their horses, but moved forward slowly.
After all, no one knew what other shady tricks these treacherous villains would resort to. If they used the same trick again, who could guarantee they would be able to detect it in advance?
…
The three of them walked slowly. The journey that should have taken only half an hour took them more than an hour before they finally returned to Lingshui Village.
The one who is most happy about Xu Laoer's return is Erbao, because his father is back too!
Yesterday, when Boss Xu and Old Man Xu came back, Dabao really showed off in front of Erbao for a while.
Especially since Xu Laoer brought back a lot of gadgets, Erbao was so happy that he ran to Dabao to show off.
Just when Xu Lao Da and Xu Lao Er were watching the two guys making as much noise as fighting cocks and had no idea what to do, Fu Bao showed up and simply suppressed the two guys.
"Brother, where's my gift?"
After Fubao subdued his two older nephews, he looked at his second brother happily, with an expression that said, "I have done a great job, reward me quickly."
“Yes, yes!”
Xu Lao Er immediately took out the two daggers he had seized and handed them to Fu Bao. "Here, these two swords, one belongs to the Little Prince of the Northern Barbarians, and the other belongs to the King of the Northern Barbarians. Take a look, do you like them?"
"like!"
How could I not like it?
Fubao is a woman who is determined to become an emperor. How can she be decent if she doesn't have a decent weapon in her hand?
"Little sister, you don't know how miserable I am, your second brother!"
While Fubao was happily waving his dagger, Xu Laoer started to play the victim, telling the story of how he encountered a trap on the road and was almost killed.
When Fubao heard his second brother say how close he was to the thread, he felt terrible.
She could imagine how close it was to escape death!
After all, she had seen movies and TV dramas about this, and there were similar reports in later real life.
"I'm angry, really angry!"
Since coming into this world, Fubao likes his current family very much and loves everyone in the family.
But there are always some people who keep causing trouble for them. Why?
Bullying?
Okay, then I’ll let you know what real bullying is!
She, God's darling daughter and most beloved child, is really angry!
