Chapter 17 Rescue (2)
Chu Sheng walked around the wooden table, walked to the edge of the bed, and prepared to check it out.
He felt that the injured man had woken up.
"Since you're awake, why close your eyes and pretend to be asleep?"
After Chu Sheng asked slowly, he quietly looked at the injured man on the bed.
The man's body, which was originally lying, slowly turned straight, and his head was pillowing on the head of the head towards Chu Sheng. He slowly opened his injured eyes. He saw him holding up with one hand and leaning obliquely against the head of the bed.
"Can you pour me another glass of water?"
The man made a simple request to Chu Sheng with his hoarse throat.
Chu Sheng turned around and did not immediately ask him why he came to the Chu Mansion. Instead, he silently picked up the kettle and prepared to pour him a glass of water.
"No need, I am a vulgar man, just take the pot over, it's easy to drink it like this." The man pulled the corner of his mouth.
Chu Sheng handed the kettle like this. After the man took it with his trembling hands, he raised his head toward the kettle like a knight in the martial arts world and poured it down.
Gudu, Gudu, Gudu.
The cold water quickly overflowed along the corner of the man's mouth and flowed along the chin to the wound of the broken arm.
"Cough! Cough!"
I don’t know if I was drinking too quickly and choked my throat, or the water flowed to the gauze wrapping, seeping into the wound and being stimulated by pain.
After a while, he finally calmed down, put down the kettle, and wiped the water stains on his mouth.
"Ha... Now I'll just use one to make you laugh." The man smiled self-deprecatingly.
"Now you are awake and you have drunk water. Should you tell us what you know?"
Chu Sheng asked calmly.
"My real name is Zhao Er, and I am a small leader of the Beidi Caoyun Gang branch. This time I came to Qingfeng City to accompany Brother Chu, Chu Yunfei, to visit his relatives.
He had taken care of me in the gang before when I was in trouble. I returned this time and I was a favor to him, but I didn't expect..."
"I didn't expect anything?"
When Chu Sheng saw him pausing for a moment, he asked afterwards without continuing to speak.
"Ha...we are about to reach Qingfeng City, and a group of bandits nearby robbers rob us.
At first, we thought that, just ordinary little thieves, had no eyes hit him.
Unexpectedly, among this group of bandits, there were two strong men of the same level as me. I could not resist it at that time and could only let Brother Chu escape first.
Later, a bandit leader with a mysterious level had a tiger-headed sword tied on his back, carrying Brother Chu from a distance, using his profound light skills, and with the power of the branches, he seemed to be in the air and rushed towards me.
I knew I could not do anything. In order to save my life, I exchanged one arm for one of the people's flaws, injured his eyes, broke through their siege, and escaped.
Later, for some reason, there was a riot in their rear and they did not pursue me, and for some reason.
You also know what happened later."
Zhao Er told everything he knew in one breath, picked up the kettle and drank it all in one breath.
He put down the empty kettle, glanced at Chu Sheng and Chu Tianxiao, and continued.
"Now, no matter whether you want to rescue yourself or report to the officials to notify the government, I'm afraid I can't help anyway."
"Since that's the case, where did you encounter bandits?"
"I don't know the specific location and name, I only know that it is on a hill full of pine and cypress, and there is a conspicuous red maple forest next to it."
"Dad, do you think that there is a Fenglingkou there? It seems that Hongrongling is right next to you."
Chu Sheng thought for a moment, looked at Zhao Er leaning against the head of the bed, and asked Chu Tianxiao.
"It seems to be there, if I remember correctly."
Chu Tianxiao thought for a while before answering.
"Okay, please keep resting. Since you were injured because of my cousin's affairs, we should be responsible for you."
"Then Zhao thanks Mr. Chu for his kindness and kindness, and is willing to leave me in the mansion to disturb him for a while."
Chu Tianxiao walked out first, Chu Sheng followed closely and closed the door and walked into the courtyard.
"Yuesheng, how credible is this person's words?"
Chu Tianxiao took a few steps and stopped at a rockery.
"Dad, I think I have to look at this again.
After all, he said that there was a warrior of the meditative level who wandered to the hills near our Qingfeng City, and ordinary people would doubt it after hearing this.
What's more, those of us who understand the tricks, such warriors at the level of meditative thoughts, are not so easy to recruit."
Chu Sheng expressed his thoughts with a calm expression.
"If this matter was left before, I would be a little skeptical. After all, in Qingfeng City, there is only General Cheng who is the strong man at the level of meditative thought.
But now the world is in turmoil and wars are everywhere, and no one can predict what will happen in the next moment."
Chu Tianxiao shook his head helplessly.
"Dad, let me handle this for now. I will handle the matter at hand first, and then turn around and see how it is?"
"There is nothing more than this now. There is no manpower left. It seems that this Qingfeng City can't be stayed anymore. We must make more plans as soon as possible."
As the current head of the family, Chu Tianxiao also began to make up his mind to start to find a way out for the family.
"My son, I will deal with this matter temporarily. After tomorrow, I will go to several markets outside the city to inquire and see if there is any news."
"Okay, then you go first. I will handle the matter with Mr. Wang here, so you don't have to worry."
Chu Tianxiao stood still, watching Chu Sheng walk away slowly, and he also turned to another room.
Chu Sheng walked into his room at this moment and took out several martial arts in his hand one by one.
Looking at one of the techniques called Phantom Step Techniques, which was also the technique that Zhao Bo recently gave him.
After he took it out, he immediately exhaled the panel.
"Phantom Body Technique..." Chu Sheng narrowed his eyes. He remembered that this body Technique was considered the top three-rate existence. "It seems that this is the basis for exploring the bandit's nest this time."
He quickly took the secret book, put on a coat, took a long knife hidden under the table, rented a carriage from outside, drove the carriage himself, and hurried out to Qingfeng City.
Although Chu Tianxiao said that he didn't care about this matter, he still ordered his servants to arrange for someone to go to the government to inform the prefect, and asked Uncle Zhao to go to the military camp and ask General Cheng if there was any new news.

"drive"
On the other side, Chu Sheng drove a carriage and headed out of the city quickly, and the surrounding scenery was rapidly regressing and galloping.
After a while, he arrived at the foot of a mountain, tied up his carriage, walked into the forest, and passed through the green woods and saw a clearing area.
The open space is full of tents, with a slight scent of fireworks. There is a desk in front of the tent, and there are various mountain specialties placed on it.
Chu Sheng determined a direction and walked forward.
