Not long after, a bowl of noodles was brought out by Hu Jing. Although it did not fully meet what Chen Yuan said, Chen Yuan tasted quite delicious when he was really hungry.

While eating, Chen Yuan also praised: "Well! It's delicious, much better than what my mother made! From now on, I want you to put me some noodles every morning."

Many women like to hear this sentence. After Hu Jing heard it, her face also showed joy. In a short while, Chen Yuan finished eating the noodles and did not even let go of the last two small ones.

Then he burped and touched his belly with satisfaction: "Have Bai Yutang and others arrived in the morning?"

Hu Jing shook her head: "I haven't come. I will definitely help guard the city now. Who is as leisurely as you, the shopkeeper?"

Chen Yuan looked outside: "It's coming soon. I guess they haven't had breakfast either. Do you have noodles in the kitchen? Go and give them a little more. Yelu Niegulu will come, so I'll give you a few more bowls."

Hu Jing snorted: "How do you know they are coming?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Bai Yutang's voice came from outside: "Brother Chen, it's so good."

Hu Jing looked up and saw that Bai Yutang and Yelu Niegulu walked in side by side. He was surprised and didn't understand how Chen Yuan could guess so accurately.

He said, "Master Bai Wu said it was too early? He was the latest one to get up in Wentong."

Yelu Niegulu walked very slowly because although his injury was not fatal, he could not do it without a month of recuperation without a month of injury. It was precisely because he was still injured that he had a certain degree of freedom at this time.

He sat next to Chen Yuan: "Haha, it is also an extraordinary skill to be able to sleep well at this time. Brother Chen, I really admire you more and more."

Chen Yuan smiled and said, "It is a blessing to be appreciated by the Ninth Prince."

Yelu Niegulu looked at Chen Yuan with a smile in his eyes: "Brother Chen, you might as well solve another problem for us."

Chen Yuan asked, "Please tell me the Ninth Prince."

Yelu Niegulu looked at Baiyutang, then looked at the inn, and then whispered: "Wentong is not big, so there must be not many places where people can hide. Apart from the military camp, it is this inn. I believe that as long as I go in and look at all the friends and coachmen, Yelu Shubao will definitely have nowhere to hide. It's just Brother Chen, Di Qing wants us to kill Yelu Shubao after he opens the city gate. We don't know at all now, what way will he open the city gate?"

Chen Yuan frowned: "Did the prince ask me to guess?"

Yelu Niegulu nodded.

Chen Yuan thought for a while, summarized all the information he received, and said slowly: "I can't guess the method, but the prince thought, can you really find Yelu Shubao in this inn?"

These words made Bai Yutang and Yelu Niegulu immediately stunned.

Chen Yuan continued: "If he is so stupid that he will hide in the inn, how could he be regarded as an opponent by the prince?"

Yelu Niegulu shook his head: "The key is that the whole Wentong seems to have no other place to hide except the inn."

Bai Yutang also agreed: "We asked the defenders, and this is very certain."

Chen Yuan smiled: "Since the military camp can dig a hole in the ground, it wouldn't seem difficult if Yelu Shubao digs a hole in another place."

When Bai Yutang and the other two felt that this made sense, but if they were really digging a hole in the ground, it would be difficult to find the person.

Bai Yutang was a little annoyed: "If my second brother was here, there would definitely be a way to find all the caves in the city. But now the Liao soldiers have already attacked the city, General Di Qing asked us to stare at Yelu Shubao. Now that he can't even find his shadow, what should we do?"

Chen Yuan shook his head and smiled: "This is just my guess, but I think if he wants to dig a hole in a hidden way, he must find someone who often lives in Wentong to help him dig it. The person will not cause suspicion when entering and leaving, and that person must at least have one condition. No matter what kind of noise is heard in his house, others will think it is normal, or he can cover up the sound produced by digging the hole."

Yelu Niegulu and Bai Yutang looked at each other and shouted, "Blacksmith's shop!"

The two ran away together, and Chen Yuan followed behind and shouted: "Two, please go slowly, I won't go!"

Hu Jing listened to Chen Yuan's analysis next to her and her eyes widened. She almost admired Chen Yuan a little: "Why do you think about things so quickly?"

Chen Yuan was very proud: "How about it? You are with a man like me who is so handsome and smart. Do you think that even if I don't know martial arts, it will make you feel safe?"

This is the truth. Chen Yuan resolved several imminent crises. Now Hu Jing really regards Chen Yuan as a man who can rely on.

But she just refused to say it out loud.

Hu Jing said nothing, pulled out his sword and placed it on the table, and slapped it very loudly.

She drew her sword and slapped the table in one go. Chen Yuan didn't react at all.

Looking at Hu Jing's tense face, Chen Yuan lowered his head: "It's me that I feel safe."

Outside the city, Xiao Yuanqiu's first attack has ended.

The first wave of attacks was just to test the strength of the defenders and the deployment of the four walls. At the same time, Xiao Yuanqiu also had another purpose, which was to tell the inner responders in the city that he had arrived and could act.

He is also a war figure who has been fighting all year round and knows that his troops are not good at this kind of attack, so if there is no change, he will still attack the city according to the plan he planned when he came.

What Di Qing did was to set a fatal trap for him in what Xiao Yuanqiu thought was the safest plan.

This is very risky. If you are not careful, Di Qing may have been playing with fire. The most critical part of the entire plan is to let Yelu Shubao open the city gate, but he still needs to be able to control the scale of the enemy entering the city.

The first thing to do is to find Yelu Shubao's traces and control all his actions under his nose.

Wentong City is not big, there is only one city gate, which makes Di Qing easy to defend.

Of course there is only one blacksmith shop.

The owner of the blacksmith shop was named Zhang, and no one remembered what his name was. He came to Wentong five years ago and after he set up the iron shop, everyone called him Datie Zhang.

Over the past five years, even the defenders have been replaced by several batches, but his blacksmith shop is still ringing every day. So no matter which general comes, he will not doubt that he has any problems.

When Bai Yutang and Yelu Niegulu walked into the blacksmith shop, the blacksmith Zhang just looked up at them casually: "Call the guest, are you trying to make weapons?"

Bai Yutang gave a wink at Yelu Niegulu and signaled that Yelu Niegulu would take a good walk in the shop, but Bai Yutang said, "Yes, please give us a knife, just a knife."

Blacksmith Zhang asked again: "How much fine iron is used?"

Knife is different from Knife. Although the sword is thin, it requires more iron because it is thin. The knife is different. Just use some of it on the blade. It is better to use more knifes and be more durable. If it is less, it can be wielded for a few days.

In Wentong, those people and soldiers who come and go to fight with swords should use more iron, while those who walk in the car often just carry a knife to give themselves courage, so it is best to save some money.

Blacksmith Zhang usually asks the guests before making a knife.

Bai Yutang smiled slightly: "We are leaving the car, just watch it and just hit it."

While the two of them were talking, Yelu Niegulu's eyes had already swept across the entire shop. The shop was not big, and it was separated by a curtain in the middle, with iron in front and sleeping behind.

The previous situation can be seen clearly at a glance, and there is nothing to doubt.

Yelu Niegulu looked at the curtain and said with a smile: "Boss, I'm very thirsty. I want to ask for a glass of water, but I don't know if it's convenient?"

After saying that, he walked behind the curtain without waiting for the blacksmith Zhang to agree.

The light from the corner of Bai Yutang's eyes was always observing the reaction of the blacksmith Zhang. Seeing that Yelu Niegulu lifted the curtain, the blacksmith Zhang's expression was obviously a little nervous, and he was even more certain in his heart at the moment.

Yelu Niegulu scooped a scoop of cold water from the water tank behind, drank it in two sips, then clasped his fists and said, "Thank you, boss."

Seeing that his expression was not abnormal, the blacksmith Zhang felt relieved: "You don't have to be polite at all."

Yelu Niegulu said, "Boss, please help us with the knife. I will make the money for you first. We will get it in the afternoon. OK?"

The blacksmith Zhang nodded: "Okay."
