Huangxiu

Chapter 549 Pursuit
Ma Tianhe looked embarrassed.

Of course he knew that his request was too difficult for Chu Zhiyuan.

But this secret spy leader is too important.

Many secret spies are only known to this commander. Once this commander dies, it means that these secret spies will lose contact and be completely lost.

More importantly, this commander knew too many secrets of Dajing.

He also has the list and contact information of secret spies in Tianjing City.

Death would be troublesome, but the most frightening thing is being captured alive by Da Meng.

If all the secrets were revealed during the interrogation, all the spies in the entire city of Tianjing would be caught in one fell swoop.

Thousands of years of accumulation were destroyed in an instant. This loss is too huge and unacceptable.

Chu Zhiyuan said: "If we really get caught, we won't be able to get it back without enough bargaining chips."

"Prince..." Ma Tianhe reluctantly repeated the seriousness of the situation.

Chu Zhiyuan said in surprise: "It's okay for those secret agents to have a single line of communication, but there must be secret records, right? If something unexpected really happens, won't we give up on them?"

"If there is such a secret record, only the commander knows it."

Chu Zhiyuan frowned: "This kind of secret record should be kept by the emperor, or the head of the Supervisory Department."

"As far as I know, there should be no such secret record. He doesn't trust anyone but himself."

"Do you judge whether he is dead or alive?"

"It is very likely that he was captured by Da Meng. I hope that Da Meng does not know his true identity."

"Let's go to his home." Chu Zhiyuan said.

"Prince..." Ma Tianhe said, "The sooner the better."

"Only by visiting his house can we know whether he is dead or alive. If he is already dead, there is no need to make a fuss."

"...Yes." Ma Tianhe suppressed his anxiety, took out two masks from his sleeve and handed them to Chu Zhiyuan.

Chu Zhiyuan took them, handed one to Zou Fang and kept one for himself.

The three of them left the courtyard and came to the street of Sifang Pavilion.

The streets of Sifang Pavilion were guarded by guards, with one person every three steps and one guard every four steps.

After the three of them walked out of Sifangguan Avenue, they merged into the bustling crowd.

Then they put on masks and separated.

Ma Tianhe walked alone, turned right into an alley, passed through the alley and went around to another alley, and entered a house in the alley.

A moment later, Chu Zhiyuan and Zou Fang also rushed into the courtyard.

"My Lord, this is Old Xu's residence. This should be one of his courtyards."

Chu Zhiyuan nodded.

A cunning rabbit has three burrows. As the secret commander of Tianjing City, it is impossible that he has only this one residence.

The mask he wore was that of a plain-looking middle-aged man, and would not attract attention.

Zou Fang is also a middle-aged man, with the same ordinary appearance and inconspicuous appearance.

Even if you see these two faces, it is difficult to remember them.

Chu Zhiyuan closed his eyes.

Under the super-sensory cave lighting, the entire courtyard appears in my mind, from high to low, from outside to inside.

The footprints in the yard, all the traces, all the smells, linger faintly.

Chu Zhiyuan opened his eyes, entered the house, and pulled out a hair from the pit.

The hair is long, thin, tough and shiny.

"This is..." Ma Tianhe was surprised.

Chu Zhiyuan said: "This is a woman's hair."

Ma Tianhe was stunned: "Old Xu has a woman?"

"He has no woman?"

"Old Xu's wife is in Yujing City. The couple has a very good relationship."

“That’s strange.” Chu Zhiyuan pinched the black hair between his fingers, closed his eyes, and stimulated his super sense to the extreme.

“No way?” Ma Tianhe asked in surprise: “Old Xu has another woman here? ...It must be to hide his identity.”

Chu Zhiyuan opened his eyes and took another hair from the pit.

This hair was completely different from the previous one, it was thick, short and slightly yellowish.

He closed his eyes for a moment, then opened them: "The person is still alive." "Can we find him?" Ma Tianhe asked hurriedly.

Chu Zhiyuan raised his head and looked towards the east: "Let's go and take a look."

The three of them left the house quietly and entered the alleys, weaving in and out, passing through one alley after another, occasionally coming out to the main road and walking through the bustling crowd.

Finally arriving outside the East City Gate, Chu Zhiyuan stopped and looked towards the official road to the east.

"My Lord..." Ma Tianhe looked at Chu Zhiyuan curiously: "Not in the city?"

This is a bit strange.

If he was caught by the Dameng Tingyutai, he should have been detained in the city of Tianjing, not outside the city.

The most heavily guarded place is the Tianlao of the Ministry of Personnel of the Great Mongolia, or the secret prison of Tingyutai.

Chu Zhiyuan shook his head: "Not in the city, the two are in the same place, let's go and take a look."

Chu Zhiyuan continued forward, entered the woods nearby, and flew close to the treetops.

Zou Fang and Ma Tianhe followed behind him.

He ran more than thirty miles in one breath and entered the mountainous area.

The mountains stand tall.

Chu Zhiyuan stopped halfway up a mountain and looked towards the mountain opposite.

In the woods on the opposite mountain, there is a manor, hidden by the surrounding trees.

If you don't look closer, you can't see this small manor from either the bottom of the mountain or the top of the mountain.

"They are there." Chu Zhiyuan pursed his lips and chuckled, "It looks like they were not caught, but hid here on their own."

He had seen the hair of two people before and had a guess that the woman had captured Xu Jingwen, the secret spy leader of Dajing.

But this speculation was soon overturned.

After all, as the chief of Dajing's secret services, Xu Jingwen should have guards.

But in this small courtyard, there were no signs of guards or any signs of action.

So Xu Jingwen was not captured by this woman.

That is, the two of them left together and came to this villa.

As for why they came here, whether it was to avoid danger or for other reasons, we will have to wait and see.

Ma Tianhe asked, "Could it be that Old Xu realized that he was exposed, so he quickly withdrew?"

Chu Zhiyuan was silent.

Ma Tianhe hurriedly asked, "My Lord, am I wrong? What kind of trouble has Old Xu run into?"

"He was in a land of gentleness." Chu Zhiyuan said calmly, "I didn't realize he was in trouble...his confidante is no ordinary woman."

"unusual?"

"The master of the Phoenix Sword Sect." Chu Zhiyuan said.

Ma Tianhe was startled and asked in confusion: "Old Xu found a master from the Phoenix Sword Sect?"

He frowned immediately: "This..."

He immediately realized that something was wrong.

The Phoenix Sword Sect is one of the four major sects in Dameng, and it is the sect from which Emperor Li Hongzhao was born.

The status of the disciples of the Phoenix Sword Sect is not comparable to that of the four major sects in Dajing, and is comparable to the four major demon sects.

The disciples of the Phoenix Sword Sect are arrogant and look down on others.

Xu Jingwen is just an ordinary businessman in Tianjing City. How could he possibly charm a disciple of the Phoenix Sword Sect?
Don't be fascinated by the female disciples of the Phoenix Sword Sect, right?

When he thought of this, his face changed slightly: "My Lord, Old Xu won't do anything reckless!"

Chu Zhiyuan said: "The land of gentleness is the tomb of heroes. I hope he won't do anything reckless. Let's go meet him."

"I'm with the prince." Ma Tianhe said hurriedly.

Chu Zhiyuan shook his head: "I'll bring him here."

His figure flashed and slowly went away.

A moment later, he came again, carrying a burly middle-aged man in his hand.

This sturdy middle-aged man has a heroic appearance, a lion nose, a wide mouth, and an upright face.

Ma Tianhe stepped forward.

The burly Xu Jingwen clasped his fists and said with a smile, "Master Ma, how are you?"
