Chapter 481 Where is the Assassin (Part 2)
Xiahou Yun returned to the tent, and Luo Bu, who was standing outside the tent, hurriedly met him and asked with concern: "Captain Xiahou, have you found General Shuzhi?"
"Finished!" Xiahou Yun finished this casually. Seeing that there were only Rob and two tiger guards outside the tent, he felt that the defense power here was too weak, so he approached Rob and said, "Guard Luo, there may be assassins under the ground. Go and call more and surround the tent. Once there is any movement, rush into the tent immediately."
"How could the assassin be underground..." Rob said halfway, and immediately thought of the real reason, and couldn't help but feel shocked. He lowered his voice and said to Xiahou Yun: "Is it because they were trying to sneak into the lord's tent through the tunnel?"
Xiahou Yun didn't say anything, but just nodded slightly to show his affirmation.
"Xiahou Captain," Rob saw that Xiahou Yun affirmed his guess and quickly said, "I'll call up people immediately, dig three feet into the ground here, and also dig out the assassin."
"Don't be fooled." Xiahou Yun stopped Rob and said to him: "General Shuzhi and the others are listening with bamboo tubes to confirm whether the assassin is hidden underground. However, even if we know that the assassin is hidden in the tunnel below, we cannot act rashly. If we alarm them when digging the tunnel, it will be difficult to catch them."
"I understand!" Rob quickly agreed, "I'm going to transfer a team of Tiger Guards to the guards here."
"Wait," Xiahou Yun called Rob again and told him: "It is inconvenient to fight in the tent. You can just let the Tiger Guards carry short weapons later."
Xiahou Yun walked into the tent again and saw that Han Zhan fell asleep again at some point. Because she could not confirm whether there were assassins under the ground, she did not dare to wake Han Zhan up. She just walked to several cases and sat down, pulled out a sharp sword and placed it on the case, staring at the ground vigilantly. As long as she found something was wrong, she would stab at that place without hesitation.
After waiting for half a stick of incense, a burst of rapid footsteps came from outside. Xiahou Yun guessed that Robu might have been brought over, so he quickly got up and lifted the curtain to look outside. Sure enough, he saw Robu commanding the people, surrounding the entire tent, and then unsheathed the bow and the stringed knife, looking like he was facing a great enemy.
"What happened?" Xiahou Yun's voice as he stood up, the footsteps outside woke Han Zhan from his sleep. He rubbed his eyes and walked out of the tent. Seeing that the tent was surrounded by a group of tiger guards, he was shocked and wondered why the tiger guards surrounded my tent. Is it because he was preparing to rebel? He quickly asked Xiahou Yun and Luobu, "Why are there so many people outside the tent?"
"Join the lord!" Seeing Han Zhan walk out of the tent, Rob quickly bowed to him: "Just just heard from the Xiahou School Captain that there may be an assassin hidden in the tunnel underground, and the young man led people here to protect him. If there is anything, he can rush into the tent to save the lord."
Han Zhan looked around and saw that there was no Dian Wei and Chen Dao except Xiahou Yun and Luo Bu. He asked quickly: "Where are Ziman and Shuzhi now?"
"Return to the words of the lord," Xiahou Yun replied respectfully in front of everyone, like a subordinate: "I just went to find General Shuzhi and told him what the lord was worried about."
"What did you say in Uncle?" Han Zhan asked curiously.
"He said that since the lord dreamed that the assassin came out from the ground, they might be hiding at our feet at this moment." Xiahou Yun quickly replied: "Now General Shuzhi is listening with bamboo tubes, trying to find out whether there are assassins hiding below."
After hearing this, Han Zhan nodded, pointed at Rob with his hand, and said to him: "Rob, you call my uncle over and see. I have something to ask him. By the way, if you see General Ziman, call him together."
Chen Dao and Dian Wei, who were busy, saw Rob running over and said that Han Zhan wanted to see him and did not dare to neglect him. He left a few tiger guards to continue monitoring the underground with bamboo tubes. The two hurried to Han Zhan's tent.
When Han Zhan saw the two of them appear, he asked directly: "Ziman, Uncle Zhi, what did you find?"
The two bowed to Han Zhan first, and then reported to him from Chen Dao: "Report to the lord, after careful monitoring by his subordinates, there were indeed people underground, with about five or six people."
"There are really people underground?" Han Zhan frowned and asked, "How did they hide in?"
"According to the subordinates, they should have calculated the location where we camped, then dug the tunnel here in advance, and then hid in." Chen Dao heard Han Zhan's question, and quickly expressed his speculation: "They were going to secretly dig the tunnel into the lord's tent in the middle of the night, and then drilled out from the ground to assassinate the lord."
"General Shuzhi, I don't understand," Han Zhan and Chen Dao finished speaking, asked in confusion: "How did the assassin lurking in the tunnel know where the tent of this marquis are?"
"This, this," Chen Dao was asked by Han Zhan's question, and he didn't know how to answer for a while. Fortunately, Dian Wei, who was standing by, promptly rescued him: "If you go back to the lord, I think the assassin hiding underground must have tools such as Si Nan, so that it can help them confirm the location of the lord's tent."
After hearing Dian Wei say this, Han Zhan suddenly remembered that he once named Dian Wei as the General of the Faqiu Central Army, and specialized in digging graves and digging graves. He should know more about such things than himself. He nodded and then asked the two: "Can you find the location of the assassin and dig them out from the ground?"
Chen Dao shook his head and replied, "Lord, don't say we don't know the specific hiding location of the assassin. Even if we know, we can't dig them out."
"Why?"
"If we break ground, the movement will be too great. We must alarm the assassins hiding underground." Chen Dao replied: "If the assassins escape, we will have no choice but to do anything to them."
"Uncle Zhi General!" Seeing that Chen Dao's opinion coincided with him, Xiahou Yun asked quickly: "What are you doing to let the assassin appear, and the lord will not be hurt?"
Chen Dao frowned and thought for a long time, then spoke to Han Zhan and said, "Lord, I have a plan, don't you know whether to talk about it or not?"
"If you have any ideas, just say it." Han Zhan couldn't help but feel panic when he saw that he was in danger now. Seeing that Chen Dao was still trying to keep him in a silence, he said impatiently: "Even if he said it wrong, I will not blame you."
"Since the assassin's target is the lord, we might as well make plans." Chen Dao saw that Han Zhan showed dissatisfaction and quickly said to him: "Let others pretend to be the lord and stay in the tent, and the lord first go to another tent to avoid it for a while. In this way, when the assassin emerges from the ground, he will treat the lord as the lord, so that the lord will not be in danger."
