Selfishness

After learning that Patriarch Yao had been taken away, Su Yun and Ying Qijiu began to search everywhere, constantly searching, but found nothing.

"Little master, Miss Ying has sent a letter, but Patriarch Yao's whereabouts have not yet been found."

We are physically and mentally exhausted from the recent incidents, and even Anfeng is full of tiredness and worry.I continued to look at the various information sent back from the Eagle Hall, and speculated where Patriarch Yao was.But now it is only known that Patriarch Yao disappeared after he went to the temple to offer incense, and the cronies who went with him also disappeared.This temple is in a big mountain, even if the Yao family sent a lot of troops to search, but the mountain is too big after all, a search would be futile.At the beginning, the people of Eagle Hall were concentrated in the towns near the mountains. We guessed that even if they hid in the mountains, it would not be too long. Where the food was scarce and the conditions were simple, and there were constant searches by the Yao family army, the risk would be great if they stayed for a long time.So the people of Eagle Hall have been monitoring the town to see if there is any suspicious person, but so far nothing has been found.In addition, we also speculate that the rest of the princes and kings did it. They have the strength to avoid the Yingtang's eyeliner and the Yao family's defense.But how can there be no trace?In this regard, we also speculate whether it is the work of their internal forces, but according to the investigation, the internal forces are all in the hands of their uncles and nephews.

"If it wasn't done by outsiders, it could only be done by Patriarch Yao himself." I muttered in a low voice, but An Feng with sharp ears still heard it.

"Is it a play directed and acted by Patriarch Yao?" An Feng said in surprise, muttering while lowering his head in thought.

"I'm just guessing, maybe Patriarch Yao hid himself in the mountains, and then asked someone to pretend to be a thief to deliver a letter to Yao Chan."

"Although this mountain is huge, after searching for so long, there is no trace at all. How are they going to hide?"

"The guards directly under Yao Chan are searching for the mountain, but that doesn't mean that there are no Patriarch Yao inside."

"First of all, the number of people hiding must not be many. If there are too many traces, there will be more traces. Maybe one or two cronies of Patriarch Yao. But if the number is small, there will be fewer people to take care of Patriarch Yao. Patriarch Yao is a spoiled young man. If you let him hide in the mountains for so long, hiding here and there, will he not get sick?"

I thought carefully about what Anfeng said, and it really made sense.This Patriarch Yao is the only child of the Yao family, this is the only child in this life, the Yao family has looked after him very luxuriously and comfortably since he was a child.And it is really difficult to let such a person hide in the desolate mountains and search carefully at all times without leaving any traces.

"Anfeng, how many ways are there to leave the temple?"

"You can go down the mountain from the gate, and then pass through Anhe Town at the foot of the mountain. Or go down the mountain from the back gate of the temple, and pass through a small mountain village. We have people watching these places, and even the road after that is checked by the Yao family army."

"Could it be that Patriarch Yao has been killed and buried in the back mountain?"

"Patriarch Yao went to the temple on a temporary basis, but he still brought his guards with him. Not to mention that the temple itself has guards from monks, but those cronies are all first-class masters. Can you kill them without a trace? "

"There are people out there, maybe there is that master who can do it."

"If Patriarch Yao is really killed, who will benefit?"

"Patriarch Yao and Yao Chan are the only ones who can inherit the Yao family, but Patriarch Yao was supported by Yao Chan, why should he do this now? And I don't think Yao Chan is a treacherous person, and he will definitely not kidnap the queen of Patriarch Yao Make such a request."

"There are still quite a few people in the Yao family. Could it be a collateral lineage without inheritance rights?"

"But those people don't have the military power of Yao Chan, nor the monarchy of Patriarch Yao. How can they kidnap Patriarch Yao without being discovered?"

"Sure enough, the Xiao family, Chu family, and Yuan family are the most suspicious. Only they may have a stronger intelligence network than Yingtang, and the ability to make Patriarch Yao disappear easily."

"I think so too, but the most important thing is Patriarch Yao's whereabouts. Even if they did it, where did they hide him?"

"The nearest to Yao's house is Xiao's house, will you go there?"

"Impossible!" I subconsciously vetoed An Feng's opinion, which shocked An Feng, so I had no choice but to explain, "Xiao Han is not the kind of person who likes to sneak around. You have to pass through many places. So far, there is no information at all."

The weirdest thing about this thing is that there is no trace at all.Even the dead will leave traces, but Patriarch Yao, a living person, has no news at all.We didn't, and I guess others didn't have much news, at least Chen Hui's big firm didn't get any news.I guess everyone in the world is wondering.

"Little master, news came from Princess Sheng just now. It is said that people from the three major schools are all looking for news about Patriarch Yao, but they have not obtained any valuable information." The other two lines belong to Yuan Ming and Chu respectively. wall.

"They are also wondering about Patriarch Yao's whereabouts, but more, I guess they are curious about how we will deal with Yao Chan."

"According to the spies' report, Yao Chan will arrive in Zhonghu City in at most three days."

As expected, Yao Chan arrived in Xiguan two days later.

I looked at the Yao family's army shouting below and said: "General Yao, you and I have agreed not to fight anymore, right? I know your difficulties, and I don't want to make things difficult for you. Just stay outside Xiguan, I won't fight. "

Yao Chan looked at us, and slammed the sword on the ground, leaving a deep hole, then turned and left.Every day, the one hundred soldiers would yell and curse hard under the city gate, and when I was in a good mood, I would let the Mohist army yell back.Sometimes the quarrel is ridiculous. If you want to say that this is a war, you may not believe it.So ten days later, Yao Chan received a letter asking him to make an actual attack. If he procrastinated, he would cut off Patriarch Yao's tongue and deliver it.Helpless, Yao Chan started to shoot arrows towards the city wall of Xiguan, so I had to let the soldiers hide, and occasionally shoot a few arrows into the distance - to avoid Yao's army shooting.

But even with such an attack, the group of thieves were still dissatisfied and insisted on letting Yao Chan attack in person.So I had to act with him, and fought with Yao Chan for most of the day every day. During this period, Yao Chan continued to guide me in martial arts. Compared with Old Kezi, he was much more reliable.

We acted every day, and occasionally I pretended to be injured and escaped, all in order to give more time to those who were looking for Patriarch Yao.However, the people who searched outside did not send back any news, but the thieves became anxious and demanded that Yao Chan must attack Zhonghu City within three days.
