The God-Level Prodigal Son of the Tang Dynasty

The two Japanese spies had suffered a lot these past two days.

Ever since they learned about Zhao Chen's whereabouts from Zhao Chen, they had been guarding the gate when leaving the city.

Dare not leave for a moment.

This is something that really can’t be helped.

They didn't know which restaurant Zhao Chen and his party stayed in, and they didn't even know when Zhao Chen and his party would leave here.

In order not to let their little money go to waste, they had no choice but to choose the stupidest method and keep guarding the city gate, waiting for Zhao Chen and the others to appear.

The heavy snow in the past two days almost buried them.

Last night, a Japanese spy almost froze to death on the roadside. Fortunately, the sun came out early today.

Otherwise, they would really die here.

Asshole, that boy couldn't have lied to us. The snow has started to melt today. Why hasn't Zhao Chen shown up yet? A Japanese spy scolded, with a fierce light in his eyes.

Wait a little longer. This is the only way from Lizhou to Shacheng. Zhao Chen and the others will definitely show up. Another person advised.

If the Lord hadn't been worried that intercepting Zhao Chen here would cause too much noise, we wouldn't have to endure these hardships.

After all, this is the Tang Dynasty city. If we intercept and kill here, it will definitely attract the official uniforms to pursue us. By then, none of us will be able to escape.

When we discover the traces of Zhao Chen, we will report it to the Lord. By then our mission will be completed. Please be patient for a while longer.

Hey, look, a team is coming out.

The two were complaining to each other when they suddenly saw a group of people walking out from the direction of the city gate.

There were not many people, just a few dozen people.

However, these people looked tall and powerful, and they were obviously not ordinary people.

Is it that Zhao Chen?

the person asked.

I don't know yet, let's see again! someone next to him replied.

Your Highness has an order to stop at the city gate. A voice came from a distance, and then Wu Xu got off the carriage.

Heard what they said, Your Highness.

It should be that Zhao Chen! From a distance, the Japanese spies heard the word Your Highness and were sure that it was the King of Han, Zhao Chen, who was in the carriage.

They had never seen Wu Xu, but they also knew that there was a woman accompanying Zhao Chen.

The person who walked out just now was a woman. Obviously, this was consistent with the news they had received.

You report the news to the Lord immediately. I will continue to monitor them secretly and keep in touch at any time.

good.

The two Japanese spies separated, and one of them left quickly towards the official road to the north.

The other person continued to stand where he was, and after Zhao Chen's team moved forward, he slowly fell behind.

Little did he know that when his accomplices left, two Xuanjia Army soldiers dressed as ordinary people had already followed them.

Sir, Japanese spies are following us.

Our people also followed another one of theirs. Qin Sanpao, who was riding the carriage, said to Zhao Chen in the carriage.

I know. Zhao Chen responded.

In the carriage, Wu Xu looked at Zhao Chen and asked in a low voice: When are you going to take action?

That depends on when the Japanese take action. Zhao Chen replied casually.

The sudden appearance of the Japanese people actually surprised Zhao Chen.

Not many people knew about his coming to Lizhou, and he had not told a few people about his plan to continue going north.

How did the Japanese know this?

Thinking of a series of things that happened to him recently, including Qianzhou Gunpowder and Quanzhou Japanese Ronin, it seemed that there was an invisible giant hand behind them secretly controlling everything.

Zhao Chen didn't know that the emperor asked Zhang Ji anything in Quanzhou at that time.

Zhao Chen also wanted to interrogate Zhang Ji that time, but before he could, Zhang Ji was already ordered to be executed by the emperor.

As a result, now Zhao Chen just feels that these things are connected, but he doesn't know where to start investigating.

There are still more than two hundred miles from here to Shacheng, and there is a thirty-mile mountain road in the middle. If you want to ambush, you must choose that place.

According to our daily traveling speed of fifty miles, we will enter that section of the mountain road in about two days. Wu Xu pointed to the map on the table and analyzed the time and place where the Japanese might intercept and kill.

Then what do you think we should do? Zhao Chen asked Wu Xu.

Wu Xu thought for a moment and pointed at the map: Since we know that there are people ahead of us to intercept and kill, the safest way is to turn back now and let the army in the city escort us.

Since the Japanese people came to intercept and kill us in the Tang Dynasty, their number must not be large, otherwise they would have been discovered by the border troops long ago.

If there is an army escort, the Japanese will definitely not dare to act.

When we get to Cheng Chumo and Qin Huaiyu, it will naturally be fine!

You also said that there are not many people in Japan. Since there are not many people, why don't we kill them. Zhao Chen said with a smile.

I think it's too dangerous, and we don't know how many people there are. The soldiers of the Xuanjia Army

Life is also difficult to protect. Wu Xu was a little worried.

Although there should not be many Japanese people, the lives of the officers and soldiers of the Xuanjia Army are also life.

If you really fight, it is inevitable that there will be occasional injuries.

You underestimate Qin Sanpao and the others. A few Japanese people can't hurt them. Zhao Chen smiled lightly.

Night came soon, and Zhao Chen and others set up camp on the official road.

The Japanese people following the team also huddled in a forest and stared at this place from a distance.

Sir, Xiao Li just sent news that the Japanese man was resting in a deserted village tonight, and then released a carrier pigeon. It should be to inform other Japanese people about our news. Qin Sanpao said to Zhao Chen.

Zhao Chen nodded: Did the carrier pigeon intercept it?

Intercepted, but our people can't understand Japanese characters and can't decipher it.

Go and catch the tail behind him and ask him. Zhao Chen pointed in the distance behind him.

Soon, Qin Sanpao came back with the Japanese spies who looked panicked.

What are you doing!

Let me go! The Japanese spy was numb at this moment. He had been with people like him for so long, and they had always known about his existence.

What he didn't expect even more was that the young man who had asked them for a fortune to tell them the news was actually here.

Who are you? The Japanese spy looked at Zhao Chen with fear on his face.

It doesn't matter who I am, what's important is that you help us translate the meaning of this letter. Zhao Chen handed the secret letter just intercepted by the Japanese spies.

When the Japanese spies saw the secret letter, their expressions changed drastically.

Then he shook his head violently: I don't know, I can't understand.
