Bureau of Anomalous Biological Countermeasures Chapter 163: Go ahead

After speaking to Kong Hai, Cheng Yaojin turned to Qi Guoyuan and said, "Brother, the fourth brother should have stayed with you for two more days. However, there are still a lot of things in the capital. Here, Lao Cheng, I will take them away. After the New Year, I will talk to the emperor and ask him to transfer you back to the capital. The old gate of the Ministry of Punishment is almost over, and you just come back to pick up his stall..."

Qi Guoyuan was somewhat surprised when he heard that Cheng Yaojin didn't even enter the city, so he had to rush to the capital. He pulled Cheng Siye aside and said in a low voice, "Fourth brother, the emperor's will asks you to investigate the attack of the Japanese envoy to the Tang Dynasty, and the sudden disappearance of the county officials and people for no reason. Just leave like this. Now, what if the emperor is to blame?"

"What do you care about that?" Cheng Yaojin laughed, ignoring the envoys and officials around him. After gently kicking Qi Guoyuan, he continued: "I also issued an imperial decree for your fourth brother back then. How many times have you respected Lao Qi? Now that you have changed Li Yuan, you know that you are afraid? Brother, what are you afraid of, the little prefect of Hongzhou?"

Speaking of this, Cheng Yaojin smiled and looked back at several envoys and monks sent to the Tang Dynasty, and then said to Kong Hai: "Tell those Japanese people, and now they will follow this king to Chang'an City. There are high mountains and rivers along the way, so let them not move...

Kong Hai has already heard the conversation between Cheng Yaojin and Qi Inspector, but he is still a little surprised by the quick temper of His Royal Highness King Lu who said he would leave. He hurriedly explained to Cheng Yaojin: "Your Highness, is this too hasty? The envoy to the Tang Dynasty also brought a gift from Emperor Saga to His Majesty the Tang Emperor..."

"Who cares about your three melons and jujubes?" Although Cheng Yaojin didn't care, those tributes weren't for him after all. After thinking about it for a while, Lao Cheng said to Qi Guoyuan again: "Old Qi, I will take them back with the four of them first. You work harder, load up the tributes they brought from the Japanese, and send them to Chang'an... "

When Lao Cheng spoke, his subordinates had already come over. He even asked to bring all these Japanese people to the carts of their own team. Guangxiao and Guan Wuming looked at each other and didn't say anything, waiting to see this His Royal Highness King Lu thought. what to do. Qi Guoyuan wanted to persuade him a few more words, and he knew the temper of his fourth brother. At the moment, he could only laugh bitterly, and said to Cheng Yaojin: "Fourth brother, brother, I can't persuade you. No matter what, I don't dare to die again. There were more than 100 people when they set off from the Japanese country, and now there are only one left. That's it. If there are any more casualties, the emperor will not be able to explain it."

"Don't worry, fourth brother, I have a good idea." After Cheng Yaojin laughed, he said goodbye to Qi Guoyuan. After riding his high-headed horse again, he ordered the rear team to change to the front team and head towards the road where they came. After Qi Guoyuan sent someone out for dozens of miles, the two brothers said goodbye. When he was about to leave, Inspector Qi couldn't stop asking his fourth brother to be careful with these Japanese envoys to the Tang Dynasty.

It was completely dark by this time, although the team had been lit with torches. However, on the official road, it still looked gloomy. The envoy to Tang and the monks from the Japanese country recalled what happened the first two nights after leaving Fuzhou. Looking at the officers and soldiers in front of and behind him, they all looked like monsters in human skins. When one by one was so frightened that they shivered, they just waited for when they burst into madness and swarmed up to eat them.

At this time, Cheng Yaojin rode his war horse to the carriage where several monks from Kong Hai were. Using the torches of the soldiers around him, he looked at the appearances of the monks on the carriage, and smiled at the monk Guangxiao next to Kong Hai, and said, "Lord Cheng, I seemed to have seen some acquaintances just now, this is not Master Guangxiao. In recent years, you often go to the place where the prince is built, Lao Cheng, I thought I had seen the wrong person. You know, you monks are all bald, and they look about the same..."

"His Royal Highness King Laolu has bothered." Guang Xiao smiled slightly, and continued to say to Cheng Yaojin: "I have some personal friends with Master Kong Hai, and this time I was here to greet him, but I didn't expect such a bad thing to happen. I can't imagine that such a trivial matter will work for you, His Royal Highness King Lu, it seems that the monk really has some fate with His Highness..."

"Right, of course we are destined. In my last life, I might have left your children in the well. In this life, I'm going to repay the debt..." After Cheng Yaojin laughed, he was about to continue talking nonsense. At that time, the scout in the distance ran back. After whispering a few words in Lao Cheng's ear, Cheng Yaojin nodded after listening. He didn't say anything, just waved his hand to signal the scout to leave.

After watching the scout run away again, Cheng Yaojin laughed and said to the monks in the carriage, "This time, Lao Cheng, I have slowed down a few monks, but the emperor's doubts do not dare to delay. You and the envoys to the Tang Dynasty can only eat, drink and rest in the car. If you want to pull it, you can endure it at the end. We have three people who can stop and urinate..."

When he said this, Cheng Yaojin paused, then turned his attention to Kong Hai. After laughing, he said to Kong Hai: "Master Kong Hai, I have something to tell you in advance. The king's order was to bring a few envoys to the Tang Dynasty to arrive in the capital safely. On the way, someone suddenly wanted to intercept and assassinate. When the time comes, I will not be able to talk about the words of the Tang envoy. It is really urgent. I can only save Lao Cheng. If something happens, I will leave you monks on the way. Don't hold grudges against me..."

"Everything follows fate. It's really at an emergency. It's good for His Highness to keep a few envoys to the Tang Dynasty." After a slight smile, Kong Hai continued to Cheng Yaojin: "Monk, I was originally the translator of several envoys to the Tang Dynasty. In the event of a crisis, even if the monk's life is used to save a few adults, that's what it should be."

Cheng Yaojin said before that it was for Kong Hai, but now he said the same thing. At the moment, even Guangxiao and Guan Wuming couldn't figure out what Cheng Yaojin was going to do. With the words of Monk Konghai, Cheng Yaojin laughed again, and then ordered his soldiers to deliver food and water such as wheat cakes and cooked meat to several carriages.

While the two of them were eating and drinking, the scout just now ran back. This time, the Tang envoy and a few monks were sent in the carriage to face Cheng Yaojin and said: "His Royal Highness King Lu! The villagers in the village ten miles away suddenly disappeared. The scout who was supposed to be handing over to me also disappeared. There may be changes, please take precautions early, Your Highness."

"People in a village are missing..." Cheng Yaojin frowned and said to the scout, "You don't need to inquire about the news anymore, just follow the army to guard the king. Flag! Notice! The former army, we will not take this road, and diverted to bypass the village. The whole army will move forward with extreme speed, if anyone dares to stop the king's way. No matter the reason, just kill it..."

After Cheng Yaojin gave the order, the flag board next to him quickly passed to the front team. At this moment, the scout who had just come back to guard behind Cheng Yaojin suddenly changed his face.

Seeing that this was about to be slashed on the head of King Lu, the sergeants around Cheng Yaojin suddenly roared, and then chopped the scout off the horse with the sword already in his hand. After the scout fell to the ground, he didn't receive any impact. After shouting a word, he jumped up from the ground again. The ape-like agile pounced towards Cheng Yaojin's back.

Just as the scout jumped into the air, several more guards slashed swords at the scout's body. Just as he fell to the ground again, the guard on a fast horse behind him held a large knife, and the blade slashed back at the scout's neck from bottom to top. down.

Cheng Yaojin himself seemed to have nothing to do with it. He continued to ride his horse and said to himself, "Do you really think Lao Cheng is not prepared for anything?"
