Chapter 480 Where is the Assassin (Part 1)
Han Zhan lay on the couch, listening to the heavy footsteps from the patrol team outside the tent. He listened quietly for a while and vaguely heard the conversation between Dian Wei and Chen Dao. It seemed that the two were personally leading the team to patrol outside.
Han Zhan sat up and said to Xiahou Yun who was kneeling beside several cases: Yun'er, you go out and tell Uncle Ziman to take turns to work. There is no need to patrol together, otherwise you will lose energy when you are on the road tomorrow. Xiahou Yun agreed, got up, lifted up and walked out.
Luo Bu, who was guarding outside the tent, saw Xiahou Yun coming out of the tent and guessed that Han Zhan might have given him something, so he asked respectfully: Xiahou Captain, what are the lord’s instructions?
The lord asked you to take turns on duty in batches, one person is responsible for the first half of the night and the other is responsible for the second half of the night. Xiahou Yun glanced at Dian Wei and Chen Dao who were taking people around the big tent, and said to Rob: Those who are not on duty will go back to the tent to rest. Rob agreed and immediately ran to Dian Wei and Chen Dao not far away, conveying Han Zhan's order to both of them.
Seeing Xiahou Yun coming in from outside the tent, Han Zhan just asked casually: Yun'er, tell them everything about this marquis?
Yes, young master. Xiahou Yun replied: I have asked Luo Bu to tell them that one person is responsible for the first half of the night and the other is responsible for the second half of the night. Those who are not on duty will rest in the tent. After hearing this, Han Zhan did not speak, but nodded, then lay down again to rest with his eyes closed.
After receiving Han Zhan's general order, Chen Dao whispered to Dian Wei: General Ziman, you go back and rest first. Before the third update, Chen led a team to patrol here, which will definitely ensure the safety of the lord.
Dian Wei knew that Chen Dao had always been cautious in his work, so he did not object to his arrangements. He bowed to the other party with his fists, and turned around and walked back to the tent arranged for him in advance.
Time flies very quickly, and it is unknowingly the third update. Before Chen Dao sent someone to call Dian Wei, the latter had already crawled out of the tent. He asked Chen Dao in a low voice: Shuzhi, is there anything unusual?
No. Chen Dao shook his head and said: Don’t say there is no movement in the small village. Chen asked at the gate of the village, and no one has ever approached it. It seems that there will be no assassins tonight.
I heard from the military advisor that if the treacherous slander in the court wants to attack his lord, tonight is their last chance. Although Dian Wei is brave but not resourceful, he still remembers what Guo Jia said. Before dawn, we cannot relax our vigilance. Shuzhi, it is already the third update. You go back and rest first, and then I will take someone to continue patrolling.
Seeing the soldiers who were patrolling him, everyone was already tired. They felt that they might lose their energy when they asked them to continue patrolling, so they ordered people to transfer a group of new soldiers to Dian Wei to lead them. After all this, Chen Dao returned to his tent to rest with confidence.
While changing defenses outside, Han Zhan, who was sleeping in the tent, suddenly sat up from the couch. Although there was not much movement, he still woke Xiahou Yun who was resting at the desk. She quickly brought her sword to Han Zhan and leaned over and asked: Young Master, why have you woken up? What happened?
Yun'er, this marquis just had a nightmare. Han Zhan said in horror: I dreamed that someone was assassinating this marquis
Young Master, don’t worry. Xiahou Yun took advantage of the candlelight in the tent and saw clearly the cold sweat coming out of Han Zhan’s forehead. He sat down beside the couch, put down the sword in his hand, raised his hand to wipe away the sweat from his forehead, comforted him and said: There are Dian Wei Chendao and others outside the tent, and there is also my aunt in the tent. Even if the assassin has the ability, he cannot break into the tent.
They did not break in from outside the tent. Han Zhan grabbed Xiahou Yun's hand and said in a panic: This hou dreamed that seven or eight assassins all emerged from the underground.
What emerged from the ground? Xiahou Yun instinctively glanced at the ground, thinking that Han Zhan might be too nervous, so he had such a nightmare. He hurriedly said to Han Zhan: Young Master, this is just a dream. How could a person emerge from the ground? You can go to bed. I have me here, so there will be no trouble.
After finally coaxing Han Zhan to lie down again, Xiahou Yun thought about it more and more something was wrong, so he walked out of the tent with his sword. Luo Bu, who was dozing off outside the tent, saw Xiahou Yun coming out of the inside, and quickly asked: Xiahou Captain, what are the lord’s instructions?
Who is on patrol at this moment?
General Dian Wei! Rob replied.
Where is Uncle Chen?
Just returned to the account to rest!
When Xiahou Yun heard that Chen Dao had just returned to the tent to rest, he decided to go and ask him for a trip, tell him what Han Zhan was worried about, and see what he had thoughts. After walking a few steps, she thought that Han Zhan was sleeping alone in the tent, so she stopped and told Luo Bu: The lord is in the tent alone, so you should listen more to the movements in the tent.
Please rest assured, Luo Bu glanced at the lower curtain and assured Xiahou Yun: The younger one will definitely ensure the safety of the lord.
After receiving Rob's assurance, Xiahou Yun walked towards Chen Dao's tent with big strides. On the way, he met a team of patrol soldiers. Seeing someone walking independently in the village, the team leader was about to ask, but found that it was Xiahou Yun, so he quickly stopped and saluted her.
Who is outside? As soon as Xiahou Yun came outside Chen Dao's tent, Chen Dao, who had already heard footsteps outside, opened the curtain and walked out. After seeing clearly that it was Xiahou Yun, he asked in surprise: It turned out to be Xiahou Captain. You are here now. Is the lord who has any instructions?
Xiahou Yun hesitated a little, wondering if he should tell the other party about Han Zhan’s nightmare. But in the end, considering Han Zhan’s safety, she decided to tell the matter: the lord had a nightmare just now.
The lord had a nightmare?! Chen Dao looked surprised on his face when he heard Xiahou Yun say this, thinking that if the lord had a nightmare and you came to me, is there any connection? Although he thought so in his heart, he asked: Xiahou Captain, I wonder what the lord dreamed of?
The lord said that he dreamed that seven or eight assassins had crawled out from the ground and assassinated him. Xiahou Yun was afraid that Chen would say he was making a big fuss, so he hurriedly emphasized: It was because of this nightmare that the lord woke up from his sleep.
Unexpectedly, after Xiahou Yun finished speaking, he found that Chen Dao's reaction was beyond her expectations. Chen Dao shouted to the side: Here comes someone!
With the shouts, a Tiger Guard soldier with incomplete armor emerged from the tent next to him. He came to Chen Dao and bowed and waited for Chen Dao to give an order.
Chen Dao pointed at the other party with his hand and ordered: Go and find a long bamboo tube and a wooden hammer immediately. If this general is in urgent need, go and go back quickly. The soldier agreed and ran away.
General Shuzhi! When Xiahou Yun heard what Chen Dao ordered the soldiers, she was stunned. She couldn't help but ask curiously: What do you want to do with bamboo tubes?
Chen Dao did not immediately answer Xiahou Yun’s question: Xiahou Captain, don’t be impatient, you will know later.
Soon, the soldier rushed over with a long bamboo tube. Two soldiers were following him, one of whom was holding a wooden hammer. When Chen Dao and the three of them came to him, he pointed his hand at the open space and told them: nail the bamboo tube into the ground and leave a foot on the ground!
The soldiers agreed, and each of them held the bamboo tube, and the soldiers holding the wooden hammer started to hit hard. The sound of hitting the bamboo tube was very loud, and soon alarmed Dian Wei, who was patrolling nearby. He hurried over with a team of soldiers. Seeing the scene in front of him, he couldn't help but ask in surprise: Shuzhi, what are you doing?
General Ziman and Chen Da came to Dian Wei and whispered to him: Captain Xiahou said that the lord had a nightmare, and the assassin who assassined him suddenly emerged from the underground.
The assassin emerged from the ground. Before you finished speaking, you suddenly thought of a possibility and asked: Are you trying to pass through the bamboo tube and listen to any movement below?
That's right, that's what I thought. Chen Dao guessed Dian Wei's intentions, but did not hide it. Instead, he said truthfully: Logically speaking, it should be a big jar, but it is not easy to find a big jar in the army. Even if it is barely found, it will take a lot of time. If the assassin really lurks underground, we will surely alert the snake when we dig a hole.
When Chen Dao said this, he turned around and saw Xiahou Yun standing aside, and asked: Xiahou Captain, who is staying with the lord now?
Luo Bu was waiting outside the tent. Xiahou Yun quickly replied.
Hearing Xiahou Yun's answer, Chen Dao was so anxious that he stomped his feet: Xiahou Captain, if the assassins were really hiding underground, they might soon dig the tunnel into the lord's tent. No matter how many people there were outside the lord, it would be useless. You should go back to the lord quickly to protect the lord.
Although Chen Dao did not say too much to Xiahou Yun, with Xiahou Yun's IQ, after hearing the words between him and Dian Wei, she realized the seriousness of the problem. She quickly agreed and quickly headed towards Han Zhan's tent.
Dian Wei looked at Xiahou Yun's back as he left, and asked Chen Dao tentatively: Uncle Zhi, do I need to take someone to protect my lord immediately?
