Volume 1 The Secret Detective of the God of Medicine Chapter 69 The Manor Trap
Master Mi Tianyi moved the saddle and got on the horse and set off with the South China Tiger.
After the horse team left Xianning City, they took the highway that extended in all directions, and soon left Xianning City for more than 100 miles. I don't know what year and month Mi Shoubei had been here, he looked around, and said to the leader of the South China Tiger:
"Lao Hua, aren't we going to Huaibei? ”
Unexpectedly, Team Leader Hua said:
"Isn't that right? That's right. You should know that I am the general of Luofu, and I usually manage the manor for Luo Dashuai, so we have to go to the manor to deal with some affairs first, and then we can go to the Huaibei military camp on the road. ”
Mi Tianyi believed it and followed them straight to Luo's Manor.
Luojia Manor is three hundred miles away from Xianning, and this group of people rode fast horses, crossed mountains and streams, and walked for almost a day to reach the manor.
Luofu Manor is built in a valley, and the ancient castle built on the mountain can be seen in the distance, and the sunset is painted with the mysterious color of green and dark shadows. Beneath the castle were the long houses of the two chambers, which were located in a wide courtyard surrounded by greenery, and which could accommodate one or two thousand people. The houses are adjacent to the surrounding foothills and are covered by tall aspen trees, so there are no walls around them.
This manor was forcibly robbed by Luo Yingxiong more than 20 years ago.
The original owner of the manor was a hereditary nobleman of the Three Dynasties, and he owned this territory with a radius of 8,000 miles. It is a rich territory, with dense primeval forests, large and small rivers and springs, countless birds and animals, minerals in the mountains, and fertile fields for hundreds of miles. In that thousand-year-old castle, it was rumored that there were endless treasures, and some people even threatened to see the castle radiating colorful light on a full moon night in a certain year and month, which was very magical.
As the saying goes, the tree attracts many thieves, and this inestimable ancient castle, together with this territory with a prescription of eight thousand miles, has been targeted by a pair of thief eyes, and that person is Luo Yingxiong, the world's official in the world.
At that time, Luo Yingxiong was still a thousand generals from Wupin, serving in the Beiyang Army. Soon an opportunity came, Luo Qian led his team of 1,000 people to ride a stormy night, surrounded the castle in the manor, a terrible trumpet, thousands of wolf-like soldiers pounced on the militia guarding the manor, a mess of knives, like a rain of arrows from locusts, dozens of old and frail militia soldiers were in different places. This was followed by a bloody massacre of everyone in the castle and the house.
More than 600 men, women, and children, including the owner of the manor, together with the tenants and militia soldiers who rented the land, were slaughtered, and none of them were left.
Then the group of orcs drove hundreds of peasants from the fields to clean up the scene.
Then he sent troops to guard it, and overnight it became the property of the Luo family.
The whole Xianning City, and even the officialdom of Kyoto, almost all knew about the property that Luo Yingxiong had plundered by bloody crimes.
Of course, Mi Tianyi, the former garrison master, also knew it, so as soon as the horse team entered this manor, Mi Daren's heart was terrified, and he even felt an ominous omen.
In the past, it was the four generals of Luo Province who took care of this estate, mainly to go to the countryside to collect rent and manage an industry during the autumn harvest season.
Now there are only 20 family members left in charge of guarding it.
When the horse team entered the courtyard, a family member was responsible for tying the horses, and the Mauser spearmen stood guard in four directions, east, west, north and south, and the team leader Hua led Master Mi to a room in the east wing alone.
It was a special room, with almost no windows visible except for a sturdy iron door, much like a prison cell. There was a case in front of a wall, and the South China Tiger sat behind the case, and asked Mi to sit on a chair in front of the case. Heard the team leader South China Tiger say:
"Master Mi, I'm sorry, I should have taken you to the camp of the three armies in Huaibei, but Generalissimo Luo has explained that there is one condition that must be met before you go to work. ”
When Mi heard this, he was very surprised and asked:
"What conditions do you want me to meet?"
"Oh, no, no, no, it's not me who let you, but Generalissimo Luo asked you to meet his conditions, that is, before you go to the post and be promoted to the vanguard officer of the three services, you should marry your young lady to the Luo family's son Baylor as his wife, and you can only go to ......the post after you get married."
After hearing this, Lord Mi Shoubei suddenly had a feeling of being deceived, so he asked angrily:
"Is this what Luo Yingxiong said? Why didn't it say it in the letter? But I can tell you that even if my young lady marries in the future, she will never marry that beast Robelle, and even if I kill my daughter with a knife, I won't let the Luo family get her!"
"Okay, Master Mi, Lao Hua, I admire your righteous temperament. But what I want to say is that you, Master Mi, have been upright all your life and have been loyal to the emperor, but you still don't think that you have gained any benefits from this? Has His Majesty the Emperor rewarded you? Lao Hua advised you that you should change your temper. You think, five years ago, Master Luo wanted to cut off his relatives with you, and sent someone to talk to the matchmaker, but you sternly refused. At that time, your young lady was still young. But now, whose daughter doesn't get married? Whoever marries is married, so isn't it good to marry Lord Belle and enjoy glory and wealth for the rest of his life? Could it be that Miss Mifu will find a farmer or a beggar to call Hanako as her son-in-law in the future?
Mi Tianyi listened to the South China Tiger's lobbying, and felt that he was caught in the net laid by Luo Yingxiong, and couldn't help but be angry, so he stood up, pointed at the South China Tiger and said sharply:
"I, Mi Tianyi, didn't go to join the army to become an official and make a fortune, I agreed to Luo Yingxiong's idea in order to achieve loyalty to the emperor and fulfill my loyalty. Now it seems that you are setting a trap for me to drill, and I will tell you, tell Luo Yingxiong, you can't do it!"
After speaking, Master Mi was about to get up and leave, but he heard the South China Tiger laugh and said:
"What a dignified Mi man, the old man admires it! Do you want to leave?
Master Mi glared at him and was about to walk out, when he felt his body tremble, and the ground under his feet suddenly collapsed, and he fell down with the chair.
Under the ground is a dark well, and the sound of water inside can be faintly heard, and the well is ten zhang deep, and there is nothing to see in the black rumbling inside. This is a kind of news ambush, the dark channel switch is at the feet of the South China Tiger, as long as you step on it, the ground will collapse in an instant, and then it will squeak tightly.
"Hahahaha!" South China Tiger stood up, pointed to the place where Master Mi had fallen inside, and said:
"Master Mi, if you want to calculate, you are not Luo Yingxiong's opponent. Now, if you marry a young lady, you have to marry, and if you don't marry a young lady, you have to marry!"
When the South China Tiger walked out of this secret room, the iron door was automatically closed, and no one else could enter it except for Luofu's family and a few generals.
