Chapter 123
(40)

It's night, bright lights are everywhere, the roads are gradually less crowded, and the tranquility and comfort descend on this land.At least people no longer have to endure the torment of the scorching heat, which is the only consolation that nature can bring to the villagers of Xiahe Township.

However, for Bai Feng, in such a quiet night, wouldn't it be a waste of time if he didn't take advantage of the darkness to go back to Zhang's Pharmacy to discuss strategies against the enemy?
However, at this time, he and Murong Yan are being E Binghuan's disciples, being "protected" by Tuantuan in the Taiping Taoist Temple, and cannot escape easily.For this reason, they had to concentrate on studying the "Gold and Stone Essentials" in their hands to pass the time.

The two of them are in a fancy house.This is a house composed of two interconnected rooms, specially built for dignitaries with special requirements.For example, those who hold important positions and need to be guarded by others at any time, such people will live in the back room, and let the guards live in the outer room to wait for instructions at any time.

Including Bai Feng and Murong Yan, they were all given special hospitality by Sima Tu and temporarily lived in such a unique house.In name the Tao of Peace is to provide them with protection, but in fact, it implements "meticulous" surveillance.

Because the back room of the house has no door or window, it is completely closed.Those who need to enter and exit must go through the outhouse and pass the peace road guards outside the room to succeed.

Such careful planning seems to have killed all the plots in the bud.However, this did not allow the young swordsman to be caught without a fight.

Earlier, Ms. E Wu borrowed an encyclopedia about gold and stone from Taipingdao on the grounds of interest.In fact, it was Baifeng who was planning behind the scenes. He tried to find detailed records about "eating stones" from the borrowed "Golden Stone Essentials".

After figuring out the reason for "eating the stone", Bai Feng and Murong Yan deceived the Taiping Road guards in front of the door with the excuse of "returning the classics", and then walked to E Feiying's house openly.

Due to E Feiying's surly temperament, she often clashed with Taoists in Taiping Dao, so that no one dared to provoke her.Even the guards guarding the door of her room had to retreat three points, because they didn't know when Miss E Wu would criticize them for not obeying the rules, and make a huge mess.Therefore, there are generally few people coming and going in front of her room.

Taking this opportunity, Bai Feng found a perfect way to escape.

After reuniting with Miss E Wu, Bai Feng and Murong Yan are about to present a clever plan: Bai Feng borrows E Feiying's military uniform, and then goes to the back room to change clothes and dress up as Miss E Wu in men's clothes E Feiying took the Longming Sword and the string of copper bells, changed into Baifeng's original clothes, and disguised herself as the young swordsman.

Murong Yan saw that "Brother Feng" suddenly became half smaller than usual, while "Sister Ying" looked more masculine, she couldn't help laughing and said, "Brother Feng, can you really get away with it?"

"As long as no one else knows, 'Bai Feng' has left the Taoist temple." Bai Feng replied: "Sima Tu dares to set up an altar to pray for rain, then he must be sure that there will be heavy rain in the next few days. If If you don’t seize the time to plan, you will only lead more people astray, and you will never be able to escape.”

After hearing this, E Feiying said with emotion: "Baifeng, thank you for being so thoughtful. But, how many days have you not washed your clothes? It smells sour... Oh, I really wronged Sister Murong. , she still stays by your side all day long!"

"Hahaha...Miss E is deeply aware of righteousness, so she won't care about these trivial matters, right?" Bai Feng talked and laughed, not forgetting to keep an eye on the movement around her.

Until it was confirmed that there was nothing wrong with it, they split up into two groups and acted like a golden cicada escaping its shell.A group of people went back the same way, pretending nothing happened, and went back under the heavy "protection" of the Taiping Taoists, while the other walked towards the gate of the Taoist temple.

Putting on the "new clothes" with a rich fragrance and rich makeup, Bai Feng was still a little uncomfortable at first.However, when passing the guards in front of the gate, he quickly felt the benefits of the new identity.Because the Taiping Taoists in front of the gate didn't even have the intention to stop them, so they lowered their heads and greeted "Miss E Wu" to leave the Taoist temple.

Although it was a bit of luck, but Bai Feng still slipped out of the Taoist temple, and walked straight to the Zhang family pharmacy with all the information he had learned.The street was surprisingly quiet. Since he didn't bring a lantern for lighting, he could only move forward slowly relying on his memory and the faint light of the stars and the moon as a guide.It seemed that only the stars and the moon were left in the whole world, and it took a long time before we could see lights lit up in the distance.

Such a strange aura followed the young man all the way, so he had to be vigilant: Maybe there is some kind of evil person watching his every move in a dark place, so he can't tell for sure.

On the way close to the Zhang Family Pharmacy, Bai Feng suddenly changed direction and hurried away.After making a full circle around the pharmacy, he saw the right moment and quietly approached the wall of the pharmacy.He estimated the small earthen wall in front of him, and found that such a low wall could be easily climbed over by anyone. After climbing over this wall, he landed in the back hall of the pharmacy.

"It's so easy to sneak in?" Bai Feng murmured softly, then flew a broom from nowhere and galloped away in front of him.

Bai Feng dodged back subconsciously, and then glanced in the direction where the broom came from, and found that it was the medicine boy Xiaohu who was holding a small hammer and a gong.When the other party gathered all his strength and was about to beat the gong and scream, Bai Feng stepped forward to explain, saying: "It's me! Xiaohu, look clearly!"

"Miss E Wu?" Xiaohu put down the gong that was about to strike, and said, "Is it Miss E Wu?"

"No, it's me, Baifeng." The boy said as he wiped the makeup off his face.Seeing this, Xiaohu immediately understood the purpose of the other party's visit, and welcomed the other party into the pharmacy.

In the side hall where guests are usually treated, the lights are still on. It turned out that Zhang, Zhao Kuo and others were still studying the package brought back by E Feiying.

"Master, Mr. Bai is back!" Xiaohu said to the person on the cushion.

A young man in red clothes came in response and greeted, "I've seen you all!"

"This... isn't this my cousin's clothes?"

"Brother Bai, I didn't expect that your relationship with Miss E Wu would grow so fast!"

"Brother, what nonsense are you talking about! There must be some important reason for this, otherwise Mr. Bai would never come here so easily!"

"Little sister is right. Mr. Bai is extraordinary in martial arts, wise and strategic. He will never be the same as some young masters from aristocratic families who are full of makeup and only play tricks on weekdays!"

Several people talked and talked a lot, making Bai Feng dumbfounded.After some explanations, everyone suddenly realized.

After listening to Bai Feng's explanation, Zhang Yi couldn't help admiring: "The old thief Sima has long been suspicious of Brother Bai, but Mr. Bai still took the risk to find out information. He is really a strong man."

"With Master E as your backing, Sima Tu will never dare to act arbitrarily." Bai Feng replied: "Now we have to use the known information to set up a trap, and only wait for Taipingdao to fall into the trap."

"What is Mr. Bai's plan?" Zhao Xiaomei looked at him expectantly and asked.

"What I came up with is really not a clever plan. It's just using his own way to treat his own body..."

After hearing this, Zhao Kuo immediately said, "Brother Bai, please come quickly!"

"As far as I know, 'eating stones' are unique strange stones in Taipingdao. We can use these existing eating stones to make candle wicks, and then imitate the candles on the altar of Taipingdao to make exactly the same candles." Bai Bai After Feng talked for a while, the little girl interrupted as if she had understood the meaning of the other party.

"Then just wait for a heavy rain to come, then set fire to the altar, and let the 'fire of innocence' also burn on their heads! At that time, we will come out to testify against the evil deeds of the Taipingdao!"

Bai Feng looked at the younger sister and smiled happily: "Your younger sister is really smart, but we lack absolute physical evidence... Doctor Zhang, there is still a piece of the fire folder that Yan'er and I found in the wreckage of the medicine store that day." two?"

Zhang Yidao: "Of course, all of them are still kept! Could it be that there are... unburned eating stones hidden in it?"

As soon as the words fell, Xiaohu, who was watching the night in the back hall, suddenly knocked on the gong and shouted loudly: "Catch the thief! Come on! Catch the thief!"

Bai Feng swiftly snuffed out the candlelight on the low table, and then responded to Ajuan and Zhao Xiaomei's wishes and hid behind them, while the other two young masters followed Xiaohu's voice and walked out towards the back hall.

All they could see was a black figure scurrying back and forth between the ridge wall, up and down, and soon disappeared without a trace.
