Chapter 108: The Wanderer

"So many homeless!"

Zhou Jun reined in his horse, stood on the top of the cliff and looked at the homeless people who were congested in front of Qintong Pass like an ant colony, and said with a numb scalp. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

Chen Hai and the others traveled all the way east, and saw that there were many homeless people stranded on both sides of the road, and everywhere they could see the starvation on the side of the road, and the bandits on both sides of the road were also extremely serious.

This time the bandits and bandits were in front of Chen Hai and them, naturally they were killed to the point of being, and they had no power to fight back at all, whether they were surrendered or captured, Chen Hai and they were finally handed over to the local government and county to deal with, but they didn't expect that there would be so many displaced people stranded in front of Qintong Pass, standing under the high cliff and looking down, they saw that the homeless people who were as dense as ant colonies almost occupied the mountains and fields within dozens of miles on both wings of the gallop road in front of Qintong Pass.

Chen Hai made a rough estimate in his heart, fearing that there would be millions of displaced people staying in the ice and snow waiting to be fed.

Chen Hai was inexplicably brought to this other world by the Dragon Emperor Cangyu, and to be honest, he didn't care much about the fate of the people of Yanzhou from the bottom of his heart.

In recent years, the drought in Kansai has been very serious, not only the Wuwei military rule of the internal displaced people frequently rioted and starved everywhere, Chen Hai and their eastward march to Yanjing this time, all the way through Tianshui County, Tianxia County and Qintong Mountains and other places, what they saw was also the withering of villages and barren fields.

Seeing the hungry corpses on both sides of the road all the way, Chen Hai was also indifferent in his heart, and at this time, seeing so many homeless people gathering, all ragged, yellow and hungry, Chen Hai was also numb in the scalp.

At present, so many displaced people are blocked in front of Qintong Pass, so they naturally want to enter Yanjing through Qintong Pass to escape the famine.

At this time, it is not clear what the disaster situation is to the east of Qintong Pass, but judging from the reports circulating from all over the country, it must not be easy, and it is naturally impossible for the empire to open the pass and let a large number of displaced people crowd near the imperial capital, disturbing the order of people's livelihood, but the disaster relief and relief of the people in various places does not seem to be going smoothly.

Qintong Pass is built in the canyon, the mountains on both sides are more than 10,000 miles high, it is the only way to enter and exit Yanjing through the Qintong Mountain Range, and it is also the first Xiongguan in the west of Beijing, Chen Hai they chose a high cliff to climb up, see that the city wall is more than 100 meters high embedded in the stone gorge, not only the city wall is engraved with dense road seals, the steep walls of the stone gorge on both sides are also the spirit of the light shimmering, there are faintly endless road seals in circulation.

Qintong Pass looks very majestic, and it also sets off the homeless people under the city as small as ants.

No matter how many displaced people gather, it is impossible to have the ability to break away from Qintong Pass, which is in danger of not being opened, but the displaced people gather and do not leave, and the elite guards in Qintong Pass do not dare to send troops to drive them away......

"Look there!" Wu Meng pointed in a certain direction, asking Chen Hai and Zhou Jun to look over.

The six veins of Xuanyin, Wu Meng has already completed half of his cultivation, and his cultivation is about to enter the late stage of the Soul Realm, and the six veins of Xuanyin are connected with the eyes, nose, and ears, and each vein can greatly improve the perception of the six senses and the cultivation of the corresponding six senses.

At this time, Wu Meng's eyesight is stronger than Chen Hai and Zhou Jun.

Chen Hai destroyed the fish mark of the disciple who increased the perception of the six senses, and followed Wu Meng's point, and saw that on a hillside at the eastern foot of the road, there were more than a dozen black-robed people walking around in the crowd, and several people looked at them, as if they had noticed their existence for a long time.

It's the black-robed man again!

Chen Hai's brows furrowed, when they first fought in Jade Dragon Mountain, they had seen the traces of these black-robed people in the rebellious exile army, and then they pretended to be the Hexiang army to attack and seize Chishan City, and three black-robed people suddenly appeared to expose their identities, almost causing them to fall into a desperate situation from which they could never recover.

Chen Hai didn't expect that in the large group of displaced people in front of Qintong Pass, he would see these black-robed people again.

The black robes worn by these people are all left and short, and there are some differences with the costumes of Kansai, which are more special, and they all cover their heads and faces with hoods, Chen Hai can be sure that the three people before and after should be in a group, but Chen Hai can't figure out what they are and why they are always entangled with the homeless?

And Chen Hai still remembers that in the first battle of Chishan City, before Zhang Huaiyu and Li Xianghai led their troops to help, the three black-robed people first led more than 1,000 generals of the Hexiang Army to retreat south and fled from the north of Chishan City, and then the cavalry camp blocked the passage from Chishan City to Hechuan Ridge, and did not find the whereabouts of this team of men and horses, and this team of men and horses should have withdrawn from Lanchuan County to the east......

After the first battle of Chishan City, Chen Hai also reported the appearance of the black-robed man to the Dadu Protector General's Mansion through his uncle Chen Lie, and I don't know if the Dadu Protector General's Mansion has paid attention to it, in short, there is no response and feedback.

What do these black-robed people want to do, and why are they there?

"In the mountains where you black-robed people haunt, the nearby homeless people seem to be more orderly and organized, and it seems that they have a big plan in front of Qintong Pass!" Wu Meng's eyesight was outstanding, and he quickly saw that something was wrong.

Chen Hai also noticed that in front of the mountain ridge where more than a dozen black-robed people were infested, there were many homeless people wearing rudimentary animal skin armor, and some homeless people were on duty under the mountain with bamboo spears and spears......

A large group of displaced people gathered, as long as they did not wantonly attack the county and plunder the wilderness, Chen Hai and them, as guest soldiers in transit, had no right to interfere, but the road into Qintong Pass was blocked by the displaced people, which was the big problem that Chen Hai urgently solved at present.

Chen Hai was about to return to the camp with Zhou Jun and Wu Meng, and tell them all about what they had discovered, and see how his uncle Chen Lie, Ge Xuanqiao, and another deputy envoy, Dong Pan, dealt with the problem in front of them.

The edge of the giant bird's wings was faintly golden, and when you looked at it from a distance, you knew that it was not a mortal species, and there was also a blue-armored general riding on the back of the giant bird, flying towards them.

"Tu Ziji, the commander of the military school in front of the tent of the general of Qintong Pass, I have seen you, but you are going to enter the Wuwei envoy army of Qintong Pass?" The young general in blue armor leaped down from the giant bird, and bowed to Chen Hai and the others, perhaps Chen Hai was quite attractive because of his burly and brave appearance, and the young general Tu Ziji couldn't help but look at Chen Hai twice.

Qintong Pass is located in the hinterland of the Great Yan Empire, with only 10,000 elite guards in peacetime, and the general soldier is awarded the rank of general of the capital military captain, and he is the general of the Eighth Army of the Emperor Huben.

And the Qingjia general in front of him looked like he was only twenty-five or sixteen years old, and his figure was half a head shorter than the burly Chen Hai, but he was plump and handsome, and there was a porcelain-like luster on the edge of his pupils forming a faint halo, which was a sign that the twelve main qi veins had been cultivated and cultivated to the Great Zhou Tian Consummation Realm.

The peak cultivation of the Spirit Clearing Realm should be regarded as having a lot of strength in the army, but it seems that he should not be qualified to serve as a middle-level general like the captain of the Su Wu School.

However, what caught Chen Hai's attention even more was the Peng bird with blue and black feathers but golden mangs flowing around the edge, standing there with wings folded, even taller than the green cunning horse behind them, and standing in front of Chen Hai and them, the powerful aura revealed between the demon pupils was like that of a king, and it was slightly stronger than the green scale thunder eagle in front of his uncle Chen Lie.

When Yao Xing was in the Yao clan, he didn't care about the world and devoted himself to cultivation, even if he didn't erase part of his memory, he was not very familiar with the Tu family's disciples, who were also one of the eight clans of Yanjing, Chen Hai thought to himself, if this Peng bird was the mount of Tu Ziji, the Qingjia general in front of him, and Tu Ziji was young and could be a middle-level general, then his Tu clan status in the thirty-six princely clans, even if he was not the son of the family, was also an extremely important figure among the children of the Yan branch.

"Wu Wei marched to check Chen Hai in front of the tent, and I have seen Captain Tu," Chen Hai saluted, in addition to introducing Zhou Jun and Wu Meng behind him, he also checked each other's seals according to the rules, and couldn't help but ask curiously, "How long have so many homeless people been blocked in front of Qintong Pass?"

"After the autumn, the displaced people are gathering more and more. Tu Ziji said.

"It's been so long?" Zhou Jun was extremely surprised, and his voice was raised.

Qintong Pass is the main road for Yanjing to contact Yanxi Counties, Qintong Pass is less than a thousand miles away from Yanjing City, and the high-grade green cunning horses and black scale horses can run two times a day, and such an important pass has been blocked by the homeless people for two or three months!

Although the official letter and documents can be passed on by spirit birds, but the business travel has been cut off for two or three months, how big the loss is, and the guards of Qintong Pass or the imperial capital actually let such a situation happen and did not deal with it decisively, which is really surprising to Chen Hai and Zhou Jun.

But think about it, there is not enough time, and it is impossible to gather so many refugees and displaced people in front of Qintong Pass.

"......" Tu Ziji didn't want this embarrassing scene to fall into the eyes of the guests in Xijun, so he smiled awkwardly and said, "The homeless people are in trouble, and there has been no new will in the palace for several months, and the officials of the various ministries are arguing about how to deal with these homeless people, so we can only block the pass to prevent more homeless people from flocking to the vicinity of Jingshi......"

Looking at the newspapers gathered from all over the country, Chen Hai knew that the prefectures and counties near Jingshi had also been plagued by major droughts and locusts in recent years, and if the closure had only begun two or three months ago, it would mean that a large number of displaced people had already flocked to the vicinity of Beijing, and it should be that the vicinity of Jingshi was overwhelmed, and the officials of the various ministries decided to block the passage first, but this also meant that the vicinity of Yanjing was almost paralyzed.

It's just that there has been no will in the palace for months, what the hell?

There has been no decree in the palace for several months, who is the Hexiang army looking for to sue the royal complaint, and whose emperor's decree are they entering Yanjing to complain?

When Chen Hai and the others set off from Hexi County, they didn't think that Yanjing would be a mess.

But no matter what, how to deal with this mess in Yanjing should also be a headache for Ge Xuanqiao and his uncle Chen Lie, and Chen Hai could only take Tu Ziji to the camp first.

************************

Chen Hai's temporary campsite is a walled official post city 100 miles away from the homeless gathering area.

Before the soldiers and horses of Wuwei marched to arrive, this official post city was surrounded by tens of thousands of displaced people.

Although there are more than 100 post guards in the post village, but the weak soldiers are outnumbered, and Qin Tongguan did not send troops to relieve the difficulty at that time, so they could only close the walled city, or Chen Hai and they arrived, only to drive away the noisy homeless people.

Chen Hai rushed back to the post village with Tu Ziji, and saw his uncle Chen Lie accompanying Ge Xuanqiao and Dong Pan, the first seat of the Patriarch Hall, to stand at the head of the city and look at the displaced people in the nearby mountains.

"The people's grievances are so heavy!"

When Chen Hai climbed up to the top of the city, he saw Ge Xuanqiao looking at the direction of Qin Tong and said with emotion, while his uncle Chen Lie and Dong Pan were both frowning, as if they were deeply touched by the simple six words that Ge Xuanqiao said, and they were also deeply worried.

Chen Hai looked at the direction of Qintong Pass, which was blocked by heavy mountain ridges, and he couldn't see the displaced people in front of Qintong Pass, and he saw that the wind was clear and light before the mountain love, and he couldn't see any evil spirit.

"Tu Ziji, meet Uncle Ge!"

Tu Ziji stepped forward to salute Ge Xuanqiao.

Ge Xuanqiao looked at Tu Ziji fixedly, and asked hesitantly, "Who are you the disciple in front of the seat?"

"The family teacher Chen Xuanzhen knew that Uncle Ge was going to enter the imperial capital through Qintong, and specially instructed Ziji to treat Uncle Ge with courtesy. Tu Ziji said respectfully.

"Oh, it turns out that you are a disciple of the Crazy Dao Throne," Ge Xuanqiao seemed to remember something, and said with emotion, "I should have thought that you are a disciple of the Crazy Dao, and I want the Crazy Dao to be free and happy, but I owe you the favor of the Tu family, and it is estimated that in this life, I will only receive your Tu family's disciples to teach the Dao!"

Chen Hai was a little surprised in his heart, even if he didn't know which number one person Chen Xuan was really in the crazy way, but since he had intersected with Ge Xuanqiao's peers, Tu Ziji, the true disciple of Chen Xuanzhen's throne, was a generation higher than his generation, and it was really uncomfortable to feel shorter when he saw people, if he wasn't afraid that Ge Xuanqiao's eyes were too poisonous, it really couldn't be regarded as a wrong choice to worship and practice under him.
