(828) (828) The city of the heart
ps: The weird increase is a collection.,Did I recommend anything? I didn't notice...... It's weird.
If Cen Chi was only out for a few months, such a meticulous arrangement would indeed make him worry a lot in life, so that he could devote himself to appreciating and comprehending the scenery on the road. But this is clearly not the case. Therefore, the delicate arrangement of the Prime Minister's Mansion has gradually become the most disgusting place for Cen Chi.
Today, because of the chance encounter with Chen Jiu on the road, an idea that Cen Chi had been shelving for a long time has been turned out again, and it has an unstoppable momentum of implementation.
Staying in the hotel, Cen would go into the guest room sooner or later to rest, and Fang Wu ordered a pot of new tea in the inn hall, tasted it slowly, and then went back to his room. When he reached the door, he was about to push the door, when he suddenly heard a call from the next room:
"Old-fashioned."
Fang Wu hesitated for a moment, then turned his steps and entered the next guest room.
In the room, Cen Chi was neatly dressed and sat upright at the table, facing the door, meeting Fang Wu's gaze when he had just walked in.
Fang Wu's face showed a hint of surprise and said, "I thought you had already rested."
Cen Chi didn't answer him on this topic, but just spread his hands flatly: "Sit."
Fang Wu sat down opposite Cen Chi and stared at Cen Chi for a while before saying, "Is there something wrong with you?"
"Yes." Cen Chi nodded.
Fang Wu's eyes drooped slightly, and after thinking for a moment, he raised his eyes and said, "Do you still want to drink?"
"More than that." Cen Chi finally ended the rhythm of speaking with only one word as soon as he opened his mouth, and after a pause, he continued: "Tell you something, I don't know if you will be annoyed."
Hearing his words, Fang Wu suddenly had a hint of consciousness in his heart, raised his eyebrows and said, "I always feel that your temperament is a little strange today, but I can't tell what the fault is."
Cen Chi suddenly smiled, and then said, "Your feelings are not wrong."
Fang Wu was slightly stunned. He didn't expect Cen Chi to respond to his words in this way.
Immediately afterwards, he heard Cen Chi say: "Today's me is indeed a little different from the past me."
"I decided to do something." Cen Chi put one palm on the table, flexed his fingers and flicked it gently, "Fang Cai." I'm still worried about whether you'll be angry because of this, but right now, I don't think I can care about your feelings. ”
"Could it be ......" Fang Wu suddenly stood up from the table, "The matter in the tea shed is not over yet?"
"That's just a joke." The smile on Cen Chi's face faded, "The joke is over. ”
Fang Wu slowly sat back on the chair, and was silent for a long time before he slowly spoke: "Actually, along the way, you have already started planning the next step, right?"
"Yes."
"When I entered the county seat just now. You say you're going to drink, but you've already made up your mind, right?"
"Yes."
"You're not just going to just flour this time, are you?"
"Yes."
"No one can convince you?"
"Yes."
"You're in need." The middle-aged Taoist sighed without saying anything.
"Old man, you don't use the right words. Crazy or not. There is only yes and no, which cannot be divided by quantifiers. Cen Chi picked the corner of his lips, "And, I'm not crazy yet, I know what I'm doing." ”
Fang Wu was not in the mood to chew the words with Cen Chi at this time, he just snorted a little coldly, and said in a not very friendly tone: "When I was in the tea shed." What are you still doing, why do you ask? Isn't it fun to play tricks?"
"People are not plants and trees, who can be ruthless, when it comes to the end, in fact, I will be a little hesitant." Cen Chi's gaze moved away from Fang Wu's face and fell on his hand on the table. Slowly, he continued: "However, you have actually expected this matter for a long time, so such a twist and turn can't be regarded as me playing you."
"Looks like I don't have much more to say to you." Fang Wu stood up again. It looks like he's ready to leave.
And it wasn't until he was about to walk to the door and was about to open it that he suddenly heard Cen Chi's voice floating, and the content of the words made him unable to dodge.
"Old Dao, don't forget what you promised Xiao Kuang."
Fang Wuhuo Ran turned around, his eyes condensed, and he stared firmly at the person sitting on the chair next to the table, but he didn't say a word.
Cen Chi was still sitting firmly on the chair, his expression was calm, and even the hand covering the table did not tremble in the slightest, he only added later: "You can not help, I just hope you don't stop it." If you don't want to see a scene, you can get drunk before me. ”
As soon as he finished speaking, there was a sound of footsteps outside the house, and more than one person came. And listening to the sound of heavy footsteps, the person who comes should be carrying a heavy object, so he has the strength to step forward.
"Guest officer, the twenty catties of bamboo leaf green wine you wanted, the small one was sent to you."
I'm afraid that I will send the wrong room, and the inn guy who brought the wine will directly show his name outside the door, and it can be regarded as the last time to inspect the owner with the goods.
"There's Brother Lao, send it in." Cen Chi greeted.
Ten pottery jars, each jar holds two catties, a total of twenty catties of wine. Bamboo leaves are green, the entrance is clear, there is a slight prickly throat feeling, if you are not drunk, it is really a good product in the wine at hand in your spare time. But if you drink this kind of wine until you get drunk and your stamina rises, you will feel quite uncomfortable.
This kind of wine is not easy to drink at banquets, but it is not cheap to sell, so it is not easy to promote among those drunkards who are bent on getting drunk, but it has become a favorite of literati and artists. A drink is refreshing.
This wine was originally quite harmonious with Cen Chi's temperament, but looking at the total amount of wine he summoned, it was a little different from that of ordinary drunkards.
signed the account book handed over by the guy who delivered the wine, and when the guy went out, Cen Chi looked at Fang Wu, who was about to leave but didn't really leave, and slowly said, "Do you want to get drunk?"
"It's good to be drunk." Fang Wu returned to the table, and just slapped the sealing of a jar of wine, he suddenly said: "Speaking of drinking, Gao Qian must be more opposed to you being so unrestrained than me, do you think he will accept the wine you toast him?"
"If you don't choose to toast, do you choose to toast a few women?" As soon as Cen Chi said this, he had already slapped open a jar of mud, and he didn't need a cup, he grabbed the bottom of the altar with his palm and began to pour it into his throat.
Cen Chi has been almost drunk for several months since he traveled west, not only because he is not a heavy drinker, but also because of Gao Qian's persuasion.
However, all the way to the past three years. It's not like Cen Chi hasn't drunk with the other two companions...... However, it is the first time that Fang Wu has seen such a way as today, if it is a high-potential field. Maybe he's already waving his arms to grab the wine.
Fang Wu watched as Cen Chi swallowed half a jar of wine in one go, and then lowered his hand and put down the jar, and said with a long breath: "It's a pity that it's a good wine."
Just when Fang Wu was quite puzzled by what Cen Chi said after drinking, he saw Cen Chi carrying the half jar of wine and going to the back of a screen on the side of the room.
After a crisp porcelain sound, it is the sound of "bang" running water.
Soon Cen Chi came back with the empty wine jar and threw it on the corner of the table, and then he slapped open the sealing mud of a jar of wine, but no longer carried the jar to the screen and poured it into the night pot, but splashed it in the room with a snap of his fingers. and he poured out half a jar of wine. He began to sprinkle the remaining half of the jar of wine on himself.
Soon, this originally neatly cleaned room turned into a rotten nest of two drunkards indulging in the drunken country in the dark, and the smell of alcohol was smoking. Too rich.
Cen Chi put down the second empty wine jar, and dragged the third wine jar to his hand, and at the moment before he slapped the sealing mud, he looked at Fang Wu, who was looking at him in a daze, and said, "You can get drunk, but I can only play with wine."
Fang Wushuang's eyes widened slightly and said, "What the hell are you doing here?"
――――
Check in on the first floor of the high potential inn, then go to the horse shed behind the inn to check the beans in the trough, and then go back to the hall on the first floor of the inn to use the drain. Only then did I return to the guest room on the second floor.
Gao Qian's room was next door to Cen Chi's room, and before he approached his room, he smelled a strong smell of wine in the hallway, so strong that it could no longer be called mellow.
Gao Qian has not been drinking for almost three months, and he has actually endured hard work, but for the appointment of the prime minister. There was no doubt that he would choose to continue to hold back, but this made him very sensitive to the smell of wine.
Realizing a certain situation, Gao Qian didn't ask anything, and directly pushed open the door of Cen Chi's room, and then he saw the two people lying on the table who were already drunk. Several jars of wine rolled down on the ground, and the residue of wine was spilled everywhere.
Seeing that the middle-aged Taoist Fang Wu slipped from the chair to the bottom of the table, holding the table legs and snoring, he was obviously drunk and unconscious.
Cen Chi, who could still sit firmly on the table, seemed to be lightly drunk, lying on the table with his face facing inward, his throat seemed to be humming some tune in a low voice, one hand stretched forward, and his fingers were hooked with the tether of a wine jar.
"Sir, what's the matter? Such overdrinking is harmful to the body. Gao Qian walked into the house, and the next step was to remove the wine jar in Cen Chi's hand.
Unexpectedly, his hand had just touched the edge of the wine jar, and Cen Chi, who was lying on the table with his face facing inward, suddenly turned his head, and at the same time, his hand that was just touching the rope of the wine jar bent his five fingers and grasped the jar more firmly in his hand. He stared at Gao Qian, word by word, and said as if he was drunk: "The old way is no longer good, you come to drink with me!"
"This is not good, the responsibility below is to protect Mr., not to accompany Mr. to drink and hurt himself." Gao Qian verbally refused, and tried to take away the wine jar from Cen Chi's hand again.
This time, he got it easily.
Because Cen Chi suddenly took the initiative to let go of his hand.
Gao Qian was slightly stunned holding half a jar of wine, and then he saw Cen Chi slap open the sealing mud of a jar of new wine.
"If you don't have anyone to accompany you, you may be more hesitant to pour yourself a drink." As soon as the words fell, Cen Chi lifted the wine jar, and poured it violently, and soon half of the jar of wine was empty.
Watching this scene, Gao Qian only felt a little frightened, and at the same time, he also vaguely realized that if he wanted to ask something from Cen Chi at this time, such as asking Cen Chi why he suddenly drank so violently, Cen Chi was most likely reluctant to say more.
- Actually, he should have been aware of a problem, but because he saw that Cen Chi's drinking speed was too intense, he had to find a way to persuade him to drink first, so he ignored the strange atmosphere hidden in the rich smell of alcohol.
Shifting his gaze slightly, Gao Qian refocused his gaze on the bottom of the table, moved a chair, squatted on the edge of the table, broke Fang Wu's fingers holding the table legs, pulled him up from under the table, and helped him to the side of the chair to sit down.
After a little hesitation, Gao Qian picked up the half jar of wine that he had just snatched from Cen Chi's hand, but instead of pouring it into his throat, he turned his wrist and poured all the wine on Fang Wu's face with the wine jar.
The wine is still mellow, but if it is not drunk in the stomach, but splashed on the face, the cold skin-friendly feeling is similar to water.
Fang Wu really came to his senses a little and his eyes were half-open. Before he could see who was standing in front of him, he heard a familiar voice coming: "Mr. Fang, what's wrong with you?" Why do you suddenly drink too much?"
Fang Wushu tilted his head and said, "Good wine should not be wasted." As soon as he said that, he stuck out his tongue and licked a few drops of wine hanging from his lips. It was just when Gao Qian poured wine on him to wake up.
Gao Qian sighed, and was about to ask again, when he suddenly heard the sound of the wine jar breaking from behind.
Immediately afterwards, Cen Chi's cough came.
"Ahem...... Ahem......"
The wine jar in Cen Chi's hand had been smashed into pieces, and the hand he was holding the wine jar was pressed tightly under his ribs at this time, coughing up a mouthful of blood, his lips were red, and the placket wet with wine soon became a dazzling red color.
Rao is high diving has several lives under his hands, and when he saw the scene in front of him at this time, he was still inexplicably frightened.
It's just because this qiē came too suddenly.
"Let you have a drink with me. You...... Cough...... You refuse to ......" Cen Chi's face gradually distorted and slightly hideous because of the pain that erupted in his body, he coughed for a while, and with great difficulty, he looked at Gao Qian, who was standing on the opposite side in a daze. Wheezing and said, "There's no chance...... You're just thinking about ...... There's no chance......"
The words "no chance" have two meanings in the impression of high potential.
An ordinary meaning, but just a miss of chance; There is also a special meaning, which exaggerates a sense of crisis.
But at this time, Gao Qian looked at the situation in front of him, and the four words "no chance" that came out of Cen Chi's throat hoarsely seemed to refer to drinking. It seems to vaguely reveal another meaning. However, with just the two people in the house who were intoxicated with drinking dreams, how could they move him to dive high?
Even if the strength of wine can strengthen people's courage and increase their reckless strength, he is the head of the ten generals of the Prime Minister's Mansion with high potential, and he relies on martial arts to defend himself against the enemy. Don't say that two drunken madmen, even twenty more drunken madmen, are not his opponents.
What's more, at this time, Cen Chi, who didn't know martial arts, was in a state of poison again, and he was already a wasted person.
Therefore, after Gao Qian was stunned for a short time, he turned around and looked at Fang Wu who was drunk and slumped in the chair. According to the knowledge of high divers. Fang Wu has martial arts to hide, but he almost never reveals it, so in this somewhat strange environment in the inn room at this time, the vigilance of the high-diving Fang Wu will be higher.
Another point is that if Cen Chi is really poisoned, then the only way to save his life is to find a way to make Fang Wu have no shots.
However, when he looked back at Fang Wu, he saw that the Daoist did not look awake at all.
The Taoist also seemed to see Cen Chi who was coughing up blood at this time, but in his drunken and misty eyes, Cen Chi was not coughing up blood, but spitting wine, so he just slapped the armrest of the chair indiscriminately, and shouted intermittently: "Just drink and vomit, spoil!" Waste ......"
"Mr. Cen is poisoned, Mr. Fang, wake up quickly, is there any way to suppress the poison first?" Gao Qian ignored Fang Wu's drunken nonsense, and just slapped his face with his hand while calling him.
At this moment, Gao Qian's love is still relatively calm.
However, sitting two steps away behind Gao Qian, Cen Chi, who was coughing up blood, looked at the scene in front of him and frowned. His spirit was still very clear, but his emotions were a little fluctuating, not because of the pain in his body, but because he was a little anxious about one thing.
The hesitation was only in an instant, and Cen Chi's figure deviated to the left and fell from the chair.
Hearing a muffled sound of "bang" from behind, Gao Qian's eyes turned around, and he saw Cen Chi fall under the table, and the situation was unknown.
Gao Qian had to let go of Fang Wu's side for the time being, and ran under the table.
"Sir!" Gao Qian squatted down at the table, grabbed one of Cen Chi's arms like he had just dragged Fang Wushi, and wanted to pull him up from under the table.
And at the same time as Gao Qian grabbed Cen Chi's forearm and lifted it up, he suddenly felt that the body under his hand, which should have become very heavy due to the poisonous coma, was suddenly as light as a flying feather...... Fly to him!
Falling off the chair was originally Cen Chi's control of his body and acting, not because of fainting.
So after his body hit the ground, the hand that was pressed under one side of his body had actually gathered his strength to support the ground. Just crouch down at the table and pull him again, and he'll leap to his feet.
If Gao Qian hadn't squatted down, Cen Chi might have been a little hesitant.
But Gao Qian really squatted down as expected, and Cen Chi would not give up this opportunity!
"Bang!"
Cen Chi used all his strength to jump up, like an octopus, hanging on Gao Qian's body, and pressed him to the ground.
Those who practice martial arts initially practice the next game. Usually practice standing, as for when squatting, the lower plate is still unstable, and the ratio between yes and no is a bit hanging. Cen Chi only had to gamble. According to what he knew, in the face of external attacks, most martial arts practitioners were not as stable as when they were standing, but they didn't know how accurate this routine would be on Gao Qian.
But apart from this opportunity, he couldn't find any other attack opportunities in the high dive.
So he can only bet!
"Old way!"
While pounced on the high dive like a wolf, Cen Chi roared.
When Cen Chi suddenly counterattacked, Gao Qian was surprised for a moment, but as the head of the ten generals of the Prime Minister's Mansion, he had received a lot of training, and he had also seen a variety of emergencies when he traveled with the Prime Minister. Therefore, in the face of the unexpected situation in the inn room today, he can quickly recover his calm mind and clearly smell a trace of danger.
What threat can a waste person who doesn't know martial arts pose to himself?
If it weren't for the Prime Minister's order to be there, he would have killed this scholar who suddenly became troubled. Just one palm is not too redundant.
As for the middle-aged Taoist, maybe he would have some tricks, but with only a pair of fleshy palms, it would be difficult to avoid his ten moves.
A sneer appeared at the corner of Gao Qian's mouth, from squatting to standing up, his figure was indeed unstable, but it was not so bad that he would be pounced on by Cen Chi, who had no martial arts foundation. Not only did he not fall. did not let go of the hand holding Cen Chi, but the five fingers were like a pair of pig iron pliers, suddenly tightened by three points, and the hand bone of Cen Chi's right arm was "Gege" softly, and it was constantly cracked.
And just when Cen Chi's right forearm was about to be broken off by Gao Qian, the sky suddenly swelled with a piece of white powder!
Gao Qian subconsciously closed his eyes. The strength of the five fingers of Cen Chi's arm slowed slightly, and then he smelled a faint aroma of flour......
It's actually flour!
Gao Qian realized that he had been fooled, and before he opened his eyes, the five fingers that were grabbing Cen Chi's forearm had already exerted force in advance. He had realized that this scholar who looked like a waste in his eyes was actually extremely sinister and cunning, and he regretted it a little. He should have been more ruthless just now, and directly abolished this person with one palm, instead of just fighting with one arm.
But his realization was half a beat after all.
At the same time that Cen Chi was snorting in pain beside him, Gao Qian also felt the coldness on his neck.
This coolness is thinner than a blade, so it also makes Gao Qian even more uneasy.
He vaguely remembered what kind of artifact it could give people a feeling, but he couldn't remember it very clearly......
This is because he used to watch this kind of object stalk to others, but today he is experiencing for the first time what it feels like to be wrapped around his neck.
"Die!"
A roar beside him!
The voice still came from the scholar who usually looked modest, gentle, thin, and sick...... Cen Chi!
"You!" The moment he opened his eyes in the white mist of high potential, he also roared angrily, like a beast falling into a trap.
But he only had time to roar.
Wrapped around the neck of the high dive is a silk string as thin as silk, but tougher than iron wire, if it were not for the blood on the string, the naked eye may not be able to see clearly.
But no matter what, once such a seemingly thin thread wraps around the neck of the high dive and is strangled in the skin with a certain elasticity, even if the high dive has a dagger hidden in his sleeve, it is impossible for him to swing the dagger to cut the neck and break the string.
What's more, Cen Chi obviously won't give him this opportunity.
The sharp pain of the fracture of his right arm and the colic pain of the poison under the ribs all hit his spirit, almost making Cen Chi faint, but he knew that things had only reached the most critical point of the instant reversal of victory and defeat at this time, and he couldn't relax a bite, so he didn't hesitate to bite the tip of his tongue, full of salty just to refresh himself with this third sharp pain closest to the brain nerves!
While fighting the pain, his relatively intact left sleeve danced wildly, and a little bit of white light flew through the gap, and with only one chance, he successfully wrapped around Gao Qian's neck.
He is like a young man who has never lassoed a horse, but with only one shot, he has caught a fierce horse that is going mad in anger.
This time, he's also gambling!
If he doesn't shoot on the right track, he will face a cliff with no place to die, and he will not have a chance to shoot.
Maybe it's too close, maybe it's another kind of providence that helps his hand, which usually only holds a pen and dances to write, suddenly has the ability to strike!
"Ka..."
Cen Chi flexed his left thumb and pressed the edge of the line in his hand to www.biquge.info a sudden pen and fun pavilion, and directly pressed it down. Then he let go of his hand.
Xingzi broke away from the control of Cen Chi's palm, but it did not become a dead thing, and after a slight abnormal sound, it began to automatically tighten the filament that was "spit" out of the box. But because the other end of the filament was wrapped around a person's neck. The weight of the box obviously couldn't hold a young man, so it could only fly upside down and stick to his neck.
Despite this, the silk threads in the box did not stop and continued to tighten, and the silk strings were stretched to the limit, and a metallic sound of machine springs grinding each other came out of the box.
The other end of the silk string had already streaked a deep streak of blood on the soft neck of the high submer's skin.
The Adam's apple was locked, unable to speak, the largest blood vessels in the neck and the breathing trachea were tightened, and there was already a void in the mind of the high submersion.
However, just before he was about to lose consciousness and Cen Chi was about to really succeed, the sound of the metal plate of the machine spring rubbing inside the line was close to his ears. Gave a hint to the high divers......
This should be regarded as Cen Chi's biggest omission in the whole plan of "strangling high diving".
But this mistake cannot be regarded as Cen Chi's omission.
Because even the officials of the Ministry of Industry who presided over the production of this box could not have expected that he was just a general in the Prime Minister's Mansion who could know the trick of destroying this artifact!
Gao Qian finally remembered what was wrapped around his neck. And where are its weaknesses.
He didn't hesitate any longer, and flew up and kicked Cen Chi out of the way by his side, and at the same time, one of his hands had reached into his sleeve and pulled out the sharp dagger that was tied to his forearm.
His other hand gripped at his neck, grasping the body of the box that spit out the strings, once he was sure he was in the right position. The short dagger that he was holding in his other hand was immediately cut horizontally!
――――
didn't wait too long, and the former imperial doctor Wu Ze came back with a bowl.
"I asked Jiang Chao, the rogue arrows were too rusty, so I thought about cooking this bowl of medicine to prevent the wound from becoming malignant." Wu Ze explained as he approached.
Lin Shan said with a smile: "Doctor Lao is bothered."
"It's only a day or two to bother." Wu Ze smiled indifferently. "Come into the house and sit down and drink again."
The two entered the room and sat down at the table, Lin Shan took the medicine bowl and blew the hot air, and then drank it dry in one gulp.
Wu Ze touched his chin and beard, pondered for a moment and said, "What do you think of drinking this bowl of medicine?" What are you drinking?"
After thinking for a while, Lin Shan said: "It's like drinking tea, it's a little bitter, but it's not difficult to talk about it."
Wu Ze said again: "Then how do you feel about drinking tea?"
"Tea is still tea." Lin Shan said calmly, "I think it's tea." ”
Wu Ze sighed and said, "It seems that only clear water is colorless and tasteless, and it will not change its essence."
Lin Shan thought for a while and said, "At the cost of losing my sense of taste, in exchange for the enhancement of my sense of hearing and smell, I should actually be able to earn it."
Wu Ze shook his head slightly and said: "This is pathological, it is not the same as exchange, you better be careful."
Lin Shan smiled and didn't say anything more.
Wu Ze pondered for a while, as if he had something to say, but he just stopped talking for a moment, and didn't really say anything.
"That's all I can do." Wu Xue didn't stay any longer, took the medicine bowl and got up and went out, only missing a meaningless sentence, "You can rest in peace, don't run outside to toss again, don't disturb your rest, I'll go first." ”
He originally wanted to mention the matter of the bloody duck, but in the end he gave up, because he felt in a trance that if he hadn't even mentioned this matter to Lin Shan, then he should keep his mouth shut, and it would be the most appropriate.
But for what reason did you hide the bloody duck from Lin Shan? Wu Ze is actually not sure what the credentials for his decision are.
Lin Shan got up to send Wu Xue out of the house, standing under the eaves and looking at Wu Ze's back as he walked away, he suddenly felt that he owed a lot to this person.
If it weren't for what happened three years ago, Wu Xue would still be comfortable in Kyoto, and he would not have been expelled from the Imperial Medical Bureau, and his reputation would have been ruined so much.
This kind of affection didn't linger in Lin Shan's heart for long, because soon two more people entered the courtyard, directing his spirit to another thing.
Jiang Chao and Shan Liang walked in together, looking at the stack of papers in Jiang Chao's hand, the handwriting was relatively sloppy, which showed that the writing speed was hasty, and it should be the result of the interrogation of the two rogues.
"The villaged office of the Liukou has been tried, please take a look." Jiang Chao was returning at the same time. handed the interrogation confession in his hand to Lin Shan, and then stood aside.
After waiting for a while, seeing that he was almost finished, Shan Liang on the side couldn't help but say, "My lord may be looking too highly at those rogues." It's just a bowl of oil and chili peppers poured down, and before the torture equipment is on the wheel, they are all recruited. ”
Lin Shan compared the two handprints and signed confession transcripts that were obviously different, and saw that the contents were roughly the same, and he said with a smile in his tone: "It seems that things are exactly as you said, and there is no trick in these two confessions."
After a slight pause, he added: "However, it is not superfluous to keep an eye on it, maybe the rogue also knows that we will confess before giving up resistance." If we had only left one alive just now, we might have preferred to die. ”
Shan Liang heard this. Only then did he realize that he was not thinking enough, and nodded hurriedly, with a sincere expression on his face.
Jiang Chao didn't participate in this conversation, he only waited for Lin Shan to finish reading the two confessions, and then asked: "Those two rogue who confessed." What do you decide to do about it?"
"I saw their attack just now, it was brutal and non-negotiable, presumably they were all full of crimes and blood." Lin Shan's eyes lowered slightly, and his gaze repeatedly scanned the number of lines in the two confessions, and then continued: "This kind of rogue, oppresses the good. Plundering the villages, bad habits have become a common practice, and they cannot be retained. ”
Jiang Chao arched his hand and said, "Take the order."
Lin Shan said slowly: "The stockade has also been handed over to you, and all the rogues will be exterminated, but the women and children will not be killed, and they will be clean."
Shan Liang on the side thought for a moment when he heard this. couldn't help but say: "Exterminate the bandit village, if there are women and children, I am afraid they will not be able to live, their husbands and families do evil, once they are without the protection of the village, even if they do not starve to death, they will be tortured by those who seek revenge." It's better to kill them all together. lest they be born with pain. ”
Lin Shan shook his head slightly and said: "These women and children, all of them are eaten and plundered, and what is it to repay them by suffering from birth." Let them see their own mistakes clearly, and let the ordinary people who have been violated by the cottage see the end of evil, which is much more valuable than directly killing these women and children. There are evil thoughts in the hearts of the people, and if good persuasion is ineffective, then it is necessary to use forcible deterrence. ”
Shan Liang was slightly stunned, for a while, he had a brother who couldn't tell whether it was wrong to kill all the people he had just built, and whether Lin Shan's idea of staying alive at this time was right.
Lin Shan took out the seals he carried with him, put them on the two confessions, and then handed them back to Jiang Chao, and then ordered: "After dealing with the affairs in the bandit village, hand over these two confessions to the Guanbei Prefecture, and the matter of material collection will be handled by the soldiers of the Guanbei County Government."
Jiang Chao took the confession and questioned: "Shouldn't this matter be notified to the county government of Shakou County?"
"The bandit village of 53 people, I'm afraid that the Shakou County Ya has already been deterred by the countershock, and I am a little worried that they will not be able to bear it." Lin Shan put away the seal he had just used, and said slowly: "I still make the county guards move, and I also prevent the county government secretary from being lax. If it's not for tomorrow, there might be another way to do it...... That's fine. ”
Jiang Chao had no objections, but he did not immediately take the order to leave, but handed over the confession with Lin Shan's seal to Shan Liang beside him, and the matter was also transferred.
Seeing that Shanliang walked away, Jiang Chao turned his gaze, looked at Lin Shan, and said, "My lord, let's go into the house and talk in detail."
The two walked into the room, watched Lin Shan sit down on the recliner first, and then Jiang Chao sat down on the stool next to him, sorted out the thoughts in his mind, and then slowly said: "Big brother, I also tried out the things you ordered before." Although those rogues are fierce, they will attack you suddenly, and in addition to their own inferiority, as you might expect, there is indeed another reason. ”
After a slight pause, Jiang Chao relayed the results of his second interrogation of the two rogues to Lin Shan.
The reason why Jiang Chao repeated the interrogation of the two rogues who had already confessed was actually in accordance with Lin Shan's orders. However, the two guards involved in the first interrogation did not know anything about it.
This is because the repeated interrogation is related to Lin Shan's search for his junior brother, and for this matter, only Jiang Chao knows about it in the current residence, except for Chen Jiu.
After listening to Jiang Chao's reply, Lin Shan fell silent.
Jiang Chao waited for a moment, and finally couldn't help but ask, "Perhaps...... Mr. Cen went to Shakou County, estimated the time, and now it is too late to find out. ”
"It's too late." Lin Shan sighed, slowed down his shoulders, leaned on the recliner with a little wilting, and said slowly: "I will order you to interrogate, in fact, I just want to confirm this matter, but there will be no other actions other than that." If you want to chase it, I'll let you chase it as soon as you leave the inn. It's too much time, even if I catch up with him, I don't have time to take him back to the Shimen school, so let him stay outside for another year! We must not let this delay the important events on our side. ”
Regarding Lin Shan's search for his junior brother, although Jiang Chao learned about it later, this did not prevent him from understanding Lin Shan's difficult intentions.
After looking for more than ten years, once I had a more accurate whereabouts result, I had to let it go...... Jiang Chao looked at Lin Shan, who seemed to be distracted on the recliner, and felt a little unbearable in his heart.
After thinking about it for a while, Jiang Chao said again: "Big brother, you can write a letter and make an appointment with Mr. Cen." I took this letter to Shakou County for a trip, and it didn't take long to go back and forth, whether it was fruitful or not. ”
"No need." Lin Shan shook his head, "I don't want to agree on anything with him other than taking him back directly." ”
