Chapter Ninety-Three: The Lonely Man

When the smoke on the West Gate Street of Shengzhou dissipated, Qiu Xuan, who was far away in the Yuzhang Imperial City Temple, fell into a deep silence. Doubts, shocks, anger, etc., have long passed, and now all that remains is Xiao Suo's loneliness.

"Let me out!" This was the first thing Qiu Xuan said to Abbot Huineng these days, and as for those angry roars, they naturally didn't count.

Abbot Huineng opened his eyes and looked at him: "The time has not yet come, right?"

said that it could last for a few months, and Abbot Huineng had no reason to let go now, he knew that Xu Chen still needed time.

Qiu Xuan glanced at him and said helplessly: "Something happened in the Tianliang Domain, the senior brother and sister have brought people over, and now the door is empty, I can't stay here for a long time." ”

Qiu Xuan didn't say anything in detail, and Abbot Huineng didn't intend to know, but replied with a slight smile: "If something happens to you, I think I should be happy!"

"You...... Alas...... That's it!" Qiu Xuan was excited, and then said solemnly: "I, Qiu Xuan, swear by the Dao Heart, and I will never deal with that 'Mandate of Heaven' in this life......" looked at the abbot Huineng who was still indifferent, and had to continue reading: "I will not tell others what I have seen and heard this time!"

"It seems that something big has happened!" Abbot Huineng looked at Qiu Xuan meaningfully.

Then with a wave of his hand, the nebula that filled the room disappeared in an instant, and Qiu Xuan stood tall and looked at Abbot Huineng.

"Farewell!" Qiu Xuan sighed lightly and turned to leave.

Outside Yuzhang City, the town of Wanjia is still quiet and serene, and under the afterglow of the setting sun, the smoke is wisps.

Under the willow tree outside the village, Ximenjing lay there peacefully, sleeping soundly.

Qiu Xuan flashed, glanced down at Ximenjing, and turned to look at the town not far away, his expression becoming more and more solemn.

Shaking his head, a blue light flew out from his wrist and landed on Ximenjing's abdomen. Gradually, Ximenjing opened his eyes, saw that it was Qiu Xuan, and stood up in shock: "Uncle Shi!"

Recalling the situation that day, Ximenjing was still trembling, and suddenly felt a lightness in his arms, and hurriedly groped for it.

The palms of the two hands were spread out, and they were empty except for a small golden sword and a small silver shield.

"This ......" Ximenjing's eyes stared at the palm of his hand, and his body trembled slightly.

"Let's go!" Qiu Xuan said lonely.

"But I ......" Ximenjing was in a sad mood, he had just become the head of the house, and he was still high-spirited for a while, and he couldn't accept the fact that he became a poor egg in an instant.

"Forget it, the token of the head is still there!" Qiu Xuan persuaded.

Ximenjing looked at the peaceful town not far away with indignation, recalling the strange purple light, and the resentment in his heart gradually subsided.

"Uncle Shi, what about the others?" Ximenjing asked when he saw that Qiu Xuan was alone.

Qiu Xuan shook his head painfully and sighed: "How can there be anyone else......"

"What?" Ximenjing was shocked, his heart was shocked, and he was about to open his mouth to inquire, but when he thought about what happened to him, the trace of disbelief that had just risen in his heart instantly subsided.

Since he, the head of Jindan Dajing, can be quietly looted, it is not difficult to accept some accidents from those little ghosts in the foundation building period.

"It seems that there are indeed many secrets in this wild place in the outside world!" This is the emotion in Ximenjing's heart at this moment.

"I can't say much about this matter after I go back, I will explain it to my senior brother!" Qiu Xuan said as he stared at Ximen Jing.

Ximen Jing nodded seriously.

Qiu Xuan and Ximen Jing went back with loneliness, and Shanyang County, the seat of Huaiyin County, also ushered in a lonely person.

Wang Zhonghe, the former envoy of Hedong Jiedu, and now the secretary of the military department, the imperial history Zhongcheng, the chief of the march of the east and west roads of Jiangnan and Huainan Road, walked into the county seat of Shanyang under the reflection of the sunset.

Wang Zhongsi had no reason not to be lonely, and the originally promising Hexi Jiedu envoy was taken by his subordinates, and he was also locked up in Chang'an for several months. Even if the Hexi Jiedu envoy was not what he wanted, now even the original Hedong Jiedu envoy is gone, and he was sent to the south to clean up the mess left by Li Lun. Whoever thinks that Wang Zhongsi should be lonely for a while, at least the soldiers accompanying Wang Zhongsi think so.

The small county town of Shanyang County is now crowded with defeated soldiers and horses, and the people and horses are noisy. Li Lun took the generals with him when he went to war, and now he is dead in the hands of the enemy, and the thousands of wounded soldiers who fled from Yang Shou gathered here, and there was no one to lead them, so he poured out the anger of defeat on the place. Smashing, looting and burning are inevitable, and the fast catch in the yamen is no match for these red-eyed Qiu Ba, and for a time everyone in Shanyang County is in danger, every household is closed, and the street is even more depressed. The local officials wanted to use the soldiers and horses who had arrived one after another in recent days to quell the chaos in the county, but without the commander's military order, how could these later generals dare to agree?

He can only control his soldiers and horses and not indulge them! But these more than 60,000 soldiers and horses, after people eat and chew horses, still make the small Shanyang County overstretched. Originally, the grain and grass allocated by the imperial court was not signed by the commander, and no one could move without permission, so the Taishou of Huaiyin County had to draw grain and grass from the county treasury to appease many soldiers and horses, but this year the south missed the spring ploughing, and there was not much grain stored in various places, and Huaiyin County could not last long now.

"Robber, you return my granddaughter's life!" Wang Zhongsi's war horse had just stepped into the gate of Shanyang County, and a terrible roar came immediately!

"Poof!" The muffled sound of fists hitting flesh and blood, followed by the sound of "clang" of iron hitting the ground, accompanied by the scolding and scolding of the big man.

"Ah...... Oh my God, open your eyes, the thunder has struck this beast!" the old man's bitter wail came.

When he entered the county seat, the depressed scene on the street had prepared Wang Zhonghe's heart. Now when he heard this sound, he immediately reacted: "Quick! Go and see!"

After saying that, he turned his horse's head and ran towards the alley on the side of the city gate!

The sound of hooves clicked, and the group quickly rushed to the scene of the incident. Before the murderer left, he was surrounded by Wang Zhonghe's own soldiers.

A sixty-year-old man fell to the ground on his back, sobbing silently, a clear collapse in his chest and abdomen, and a crude hoe fell beside him.

When I looked up, I saw a small dilapidated courtyard not far away, the door was ajar, and a motionless naked woman lay on the wooden bed in the house, drenched in blood......

"Which part of you are there?" shouted the leading man, looking at the cavalry that surrounded him, and pretending to be calm. The Han side is also a cavalry of a hundred battles, but it is far inferior to these people in terms of size and momentum.

Wang Zhongsi waved his hand, and then a person dismounted, quickly ran towards the old man who fell to the ground, took out the golden needle and began to heal the old man's wounds.

Immediately afterwards, Wang Zhongsi slowly moved his gaze to these people, and asked in a cold voice, "You did this?"

"You...... Who are you? ...... I want you to take care of it!, be careful that Lao Tzu will beat you to death!" The leading man scolded with some fear.

"I'll ask you again, did you do it?" Wang Zhonghe's voice was raised, and his voice became colder and colder.

The leading man trembled and trembled at the cold voice. But then he replied calmly: "That's right! It was made by Lao Tzu! What are you doing?"

"Okay! just admit it!" Wang Zhongsi said fiercely, and then the cold light flashed, and the big man's huge head flew into the air, and his big protruding eyes were full of surprise and puzzlement.

"Kill them all!" Wang Zhongji returned his sword to the sheath and ordered in disgust at the four guards.

"Yes!" the guards replied in unison, and in a moment, the flesh and blood flew away, and the murderers were in a different place before they could cry.

"Go and inform Huaiyin Taishou and prepare to restore the people's livelihood. And you, go outside the city and order the commanders of all armies to assemble at the camp at once, and if you don't meet the deadline, you will not be spared!" Wang Zhongji quickly gave the order.

"Yes!" the guards immediately dispersed.

"How's it going?" asked Wang Zhongsi to the man who was treating the old man.

The man shook his head regretfully and sighed, "My heart and lungs are injured, and I can't live." ”

When Wang Zhongji heard this, his face immediately felt like frost.

"This group of scum, when I killed the enemy, I didn't see them sell their lives, and when they dealt with the common people, they had a lot of strength!" The man who rescued the person straightened up, wearing a blue robe, which was actually dressed as a scribe, and glanced at the old man who was seriously injured and died, and scolded angrily.

When Wang Zhongsi heard this, his heart was full of anger, so he turned his head and said to the more than 100 guards who accompanied him: "You should immediately disperse now, go to inspect all parts of the city, and once you find the soldiers of the rebellious people, you will be killed directly!"

"Yes!" Wang Zhonghe's personal soldiers are all elites who have survived a hundred battles, and they only listen to the orders of Wang Zhonghe, and kill a few people, which is nothing!

"Dashuai, this situation is not easy to clean up now!" The person dressed as a scribe is the secretary of Wang Zhonghe, surnamed Han Mingzhi, and the son of the first place. Don't look at this person's failure to pass the imperial examination, but he is a practical talent, otherwise he will not let Wang Zhonghe, who is famous, take a fancy to him. Now seeing such a situation in Shanyang County, out of the intention of worrying about the Lord, he should also talk to Wang Zhonghe.

Wang Zhongsi nodded silently and said, "Li Lun is newly defeated, the morale of all armies is low, and it will take some time to fight." But it doesn't matter, we haven't encountered a more difficult situation than this, after listening to the strength of the rebels, we can deal with it calmly!"

Wang Zhongsi is worthy of being a famous general in a hundred battles, and these little things like the battle situation is not going well cannot disturb his mind.

"Alas......" Han Zhi sighed, and then said helplessly: "That's not what I'm talking about!"

"The ability of the big handsome is clear in the next one, the rebellion in Yangzhou is just a little petty people, Li Lun's kind of wine bag and rice bag, it is not surprising that he lost, as long as the big handsome is out, it will not take long to spread the good news. Han Zhi's expression was indifferent, without the slightest compliment, and after saying this, he turned to say: "What I am talking about below is the situation in the Chang'an court! The marshal was trapped in Chang'an for several months for no reason, and as soon as he came out, he was sent to the south to quell the rebellion by the errand of the envoy of the Hedong Jiedu. I heard that it was still Li Linfu's mentions, didn't the big handsome see anything?"
