Six hundred and fortieth chapters relentless pursuit(2/2)
My mother-in-law is very powerful. There are so many guards in the Grand Theater and she didn’t stop me. You need to bring more people and be careful."
Lin Jue nodded and said: "Don't worry. Someone is here to take Miss Qin back to the Grand Theater to rest. Miss Qin, post a notice that the Grand Theater will be closed for one day today."
Qin Xiaoxiao said: "No, the performance is ready. I will perform on stage when I get back. I will not miss the theater. I, Qin Xiaoxiao, still understand these principles. After the tickets are sold, the audience will enter. Refunding tickets and suspending performances will affect the theater.
Reputation and business..."
Lin Jue smacked his lips and nodded: "Okay, you can decide for yourself."
After a moment of burning incense, Qiba rode a big horse out of the gate of Xiangguosi mansion and galloped along the wet long street after snow. The group went straight north, followed Maxing Street from Fengqiu Gate out of the inner city, and crossed the Wuzhang River to Qing Dynasty.
Huiqiao walked out of the North City Gate and soon found himself on the official road of the North City covered with heavy snow.
Bianliang City is located on a flat plain. After exiting the north city gate, you can see thousands of miles of flat land, covered with heavy snow, and almost no trace of human habitation. Looking back at the capital city behind you, and then at the snowfield in front, you will see a population of 100 people behind it.
There are tens of thousands of prosperous super cities, but in front of them is a vast snowfield that is deserted and deserted. They are simply two worlds.
These seven or eight cavalrymen were Lin Jue and others. Although Liang Qi didn't quite understand what was going on, the military advisor was going to save people, so he couldn't do anything, so he also asked to come. Lin Jue couldn't resist him, so he had to agree. The remaining
It was Lin Hu and a few skilled guards at home. It seemed that there were not many people, but Lin Jue knew that relying on more people was of no use. Bai Yushuang's martial arts was extremely high, and no matter how many people there were, it might not be effective.
It's just a matter of having a few more manpower to search for traces and deliver news.
Just before going out, Lin Jue made a rough judgment. If Bai Yushuang wants to bring Bai Bing back to Mobei, she must leave the city directly from the North City Gate. After leaving the North City Gate, go all the way north, cross the Yellow River and go north.
This is the correct route to Mobei. But at this moment, standing in the vast snowfield outside Beicheng, Lin Jue was a little undecided.
"Uncle, where are we chasing? I don't know if they have left the city. If they didn't leave the city at all, wouldn't we be blind?" Lin Hu asked, riding his horse and standing next to Lin Jue's horse.
Lin Jue frowned and said nothing. He really didn't know if Bai Yushuang and Bai Bing had left the city. Maybe they were hiding in an inn somewhere in the capital. He had been very anxious just now and his head was hot, but now he calmed down.
"Brother Liang Qi, what do you think?" Lin Jue said.
Liang Qi thought for a while and said: "Generally speaking, if there is trouble in the city, you can't stay too long. Didn't Miss Qin just say that the old lady made a big fuss in the theater? If it were me, I would be afraid that someone would
Reporter, you have to leave the capital no matter what. Even if you sleep outside the city for one night, it is safer than being in the city. Because it is a prison there, and once you are searched, you will not be able to escape."
Lin Jue nodded and said: "That's what I said. He must have left the city. If he left the city, he must have left through the north city gate. We don't have to doubt anymore, let's go and chase him!"
Lin Jue shook his cloak, whipped the horse, and the horse rushed out. Everyone whipped to follow, and seven or eight horses rushed out along the official road with mixed footprints through the mud and snow.
The road was trampled by cars and horses and was extremely muddy. After all, it was the official road leading to the capital. When people from the surrounding areas entered the city, large cars, mules and horses had to go. Although there was no one at the moment, it was still muddy and trampled.
That's all, the most terrible thing is the biting wind coming from the north. After the heavy snow stopped, the weather did not clear up. The howling north wind blew against our faces, and everyone riding on the horse felt as cold as ice. The horses also seemed very cold.
It was laborious, breathing out white air, and making whining sounds from time to time.
Under this situation, the traveling speed was very slow. It took more than an hour to walk more than ten miles. However, there was still no trace. Just when everyone began to wonder if they had made the wrong decision,
A large cart carrying sweet potatoes to the city came up on the official road ahead. The driver was an old man. When he saw several horses speeding towards him, the old man consciously pulled the cart to the side and got out of the way.
Lin Jue stopped his horse next to the bullock cart, breathed heavily and asked, "Old man, where did it come from?"
"Old man, I didn't break the law. I was delivering sweet potatoes to a wealthy family in the city." The old man was startled.
"Don't be afraid, husband, we are just asking something. Did you meet two women on the road? Two women, one old and one young?" Lin Jue said with a smile.
"An old woman and a young woman? Oh, I seem to have met two of them. They look a little strange. They are freezing to death on a snowy day, and they are wearing very thin clothes. I am afraid they will freeze to death outside tonight." The old man said hurriedly.
.
Lin Jue was overjoyed and inquired about Bai Yushuang's appearance in detail. Although Lin Jue didn't know Bai Yushuang's appearance, Lin Jue was very familiar with the girl's appearance and dress described by the old man. Lin Jue still knew Bai Bing's dress.
Moreover, the described appearance is quite similar. This time, everyone including Lin Jue suddenly felt energetic. After all, chasing an uncertain target, some people were murmuring in their hearts. They had not seen any trace for so long, and they were also a little discouraged.
.But now that the target appeared, I immediately felt energetic and energetic, and my energy level also improved a lot.
"May I ask my husband, where did you meet them?" Lin Jue asked.
"That's far away. It's still over the Ershili Bridge. It's been more than an hour. I guess they are far away now. They are heading north," the old man replied.
Lin Jue was surprised and speechless. These two people must have been too fast. After receiving the news, he immediately set out to chase them. They had already walked such a long way. But it didn't seem surprising. Both master and disciple had extraordinary abilities.
Martial arts practitioners live in the bitter cold mountains of Mobei, so they shouldn't have much trouble with such terrain and weather. The speed of martial arts may be much faster than those like me riding horses in the mud and snow.
.
"Thank you, father-in-law." Lin Jue took out a piece of silver and presented it to him. The old man was pleasantly surprised. He didn't expect that he would have such good luck today.
"Farewell." Lin Jue waved his hand and everyone moved their horses forward. The old man suddenly shouted: "Wait a minute!"
Lin Jue turned around and smiled: "What?"
The old man pointed to the curve in front and said: "Are you going to chase the two of them? I'm afraid it won't be possible to chase them like this. It will be dark even after more than ten miles, so you may not be able to catch up. There is a small road ahead, and a big car can't catch up.
You can't walk, but you can definitely walk on horseback. That road can save you the twists and turns, and it's at least five or six miles away from the Twenty-mile Bridge. You can go straight across from the path, just ahead of the three trees.
The path to the right is the one we country folk usually take."
Lin Jue laughed loudly, cupped his hands and said, "Thank you, father-in-law. I understand. I also need to speed up. This ox cart is so slow that it may not be able to enter the capital even after dark."
The old man smiled and said: "You are not afraid, old man. You can enter the city even after dark."
At that moment, Lin Jue and others rode forward. Liang Qi said with a smile: "It seems that money is still useful. This old man pointed out the path only after he got the money. If I don't give money, I guess he won't tell me."
Lin Jue smiled and said: "That's natural. It's called if you are good to him, he will repay you. This is how it is between people. If you do good to others, you will be rewarded. You don't know what he will repay you, but you will definitely not suffer.
.”
Liang Qi laughed loudly and thought to himself: "Military advisors are still naive. There are not many people in the world who repay kindness with hatred. What's the good of being kind to others? Didn't you tell us that this world is a world of the jungle, and strength should speak for itself? Do you believe it now?
