Chapter 5: Difficulty
About two feet high, the mottled city wall in disrepair, revealing the simple vicissitudes of life, this is Yangshan County, which directly governs dozens of villages such as Liushu Village.
Cars and horses hurried by, crowded in front of the city gates, and sometimes there were bursts of noise and impatient shouting.
Most of these people are wealthy gentry from nearby villages, and ordinary people cannot afford to use carriages and horses.
"Martial law!"
The gloomy color in Lu Chuan's eyes flashed, and he subconsciously touched a secret letter in his arms.
The letter contains very little, but it is enough to shake the earth.
The generals of the Suibei battalion colluded with the Liangzhou gentry to sell contraband to the northern grasslands, and even heavy weapons of the militaristic state, killing the good and risking the merits, ambushing and killing the Qincha, and plotting against the wrong!
One by one, one by one, are all capital crimes of the Yi Nine Clan.
This kind of thing is far from what he can participate in now, but it doesn't prevent him from hiding the secret letter and waiting for the opportunity!
Wow!
The horse neighed and screamed, and a startled horse shook off its hooves and pulled the frame and crashed into it.
Having experienced the unity of man and horse, no one knows better than Lu Chuan how terrifying the power of a horse is to collide, and he subconsciously wants to dodge sideways, but the women and children behind him exclaimed, which made the highly educated Lu Chuan hesitate for a moment.
"This dog's way of the world!"
Lu Chuan scolded secretly, shook his hand and shook off the wooden stick, made a mistake under his feet, stood in front of the carriage, raised his thin hands, grabbed the shackles with great precision, and burst into his mouth, "Bah!"
Da-da-da-da!
The horse's front hooves flew in the air, and before it kicked Lu Chuan's chest, it was grabbed alive and fell to the ground, throwing its neck and neighing, but under the comfort of the person in front of him, he quickly settled down.
"Ahem!"
Lu Chuan coughed twice, and under the cover of dust, he dodged and retreated into the crowd.
He still has human life on his back, and in this case, it is better not to be too eye-catching.
"Madame, Miss, are you alright?"
An old man who looked like a butler hurried to the front from the crowd and hissed urgently.
"Uncle Yang, we're fine, have we hurt anyone?"
In the carriage, there was a soft voice.
"Madame, Miss is fine, but the old slave was scared to death, fortunately no one was hurt, just now I saw someone stop the carriage, hey, what about people?"
Uncle Yang patted his chest, and then remembered the previous glimpse, but where was there still anyone?
"Forget it, it's good that you didn't hurt anyone, let's go into the city quickly!"
Another majestic woman's voice came.
"Yes, yes!"
Uncle Yang was too busy to respond, glared fiercely and fell lightly, and the horseman who had just arrived was about to follow the carriage, when he stumbled under his feet, but he stepped on a crutch, and couldn't help but curse, "Which conscienceless person does such a lack of morality?"
Saying that, regardless of whether he hit someone or not, he threw his crutch into the crowd with his hand, and the bluffing crowd dodged one after another, but they didn't dare to make a mistake.
The carriage has signs, although I don't know what the origin is, but it must be an official gentry.
Such a person, naturally no one dares to provoke easily!
"Lost your conscience?"
Lu Chuan lowered his head and muttered.
Crossing the street in shock, the people in the car don't even show their faces, what kind of world is this?
Even in this era, it is really not appropriate for family members to show their heads, especially the official eunuchs are very strict, but this kind of thing happens, no matter how you look at it, it feels incredible.
Even if it was a soldier who strictly checked the passers-by, he only made a slight inquiry, and then nodded and sent him into the main gate.
At the small gates on both sides, the people lined up in a long line, and the gap was clear, even if the main gate was empty, no one dared to cross the slightest.
After waiting for more than half an hour, before it was his turn, Lu Chuan showed the document he had received, and it was a local accent, plus the identity and household registration documents of Weibao Xiaoqi, and he entered the city without being troubled.
Lu Chuan, who was in a somewhat complicated mood, didn't notice that not far behind him, a carriage followed closely into the city.
"Hmph, this leprosy ghost can actually scare the horse, is he already in the product?"
In the carriage, a touch of coldness flashed on Chen Bin's white and chubby face, his eyebrows furrowed deeply, as if he had thought of something bad, he crushed the mat under his feet, and said in a deep voice, "Chen Wu." ”
"Young Master!"
Chen Wu, the entourage who followed closely on the side, hurriedly answered.
"Most of that kid went to the yamen to handle the recruitment paperwork, and he went to keep an eye on it, and he knew what to do, right?"
Chen Bin said coldly.
"Young master, don't worry, no matter what he does, he won't succeed!"
Chen Wugong said.
......
"In Lu Chuan, the small banner of Xiaoliang Fort, I came to Yamen to deliver documents and recruit township soldiers under the military order of thousands of households!"
Outside the yamen duty room, Lu Chuan handed over an official document.
"Wait a moment, sir!"
After checking that the document was correct, the scribe turned to the back hall with the official document.
Unexpectedly, this was an hour, and the scribe was not even seen turning around.
"What's going on?"
Lu Chuan's mouth was dry, and the tea on the table was long gone.
stopped a soap and asked, and his depressed brain jumped.
"It's noon, so naturally I'm going to eat, is it possible, do you have to go to work hungry?"
Lu Chuan was silent.
I have long heard that the darkness in the yamen is outrageous, and I never thought that I would encounter it myself!
To put it bluntly, he didn't give the so-called 'signing money', 'festival gifts' and other floating wealth gifts, so he sat on the cold bench for an hour.
"There is Lao, the eldest brother, please say a word!"
Lu Chuan handed over a piece of broken silver and said the appearance of the scribe.
"Wait!"
Soap Li checked it, about a tael of silver, his face eased a little, and he went to the inner hall.
This is more than half an hour!
During this period, if Lu Chuan hadn't eaten an iron food pill, he almost didn't hold on.
"Eating is so hard to rush, and you can't let people live?"
The scribe was late and complained.
"When I first came here, I didn't know anything, please don't blame the eldest brother, when this happens, Fengyang Lou will be drunk and rest!"
Lu Chuan handed over the silver and said in a sincere tone.
"Ha, everyone is doing things for the court, little brother, wait a minute, I'll go and do it for you!"
The scribe turned his face faster than he turned the book, took the silver without a trace, and turned to the inner hall.
What made Lu Chuan angry, but what he couldn't do was that he waited for nearly an hour, and he didn't see the scribe turn around.
"Oh, Zhang San, I suddenly fell ill in the afternoon and went to the doctor!"
Waiting left and right and waiting for no one to see anyone, and when he got such an answer, no one paid attention to Lu Chuan.
Asking where to go for medical treatment, or where Zhang San's family lives, is all about not knowing.
"Withheld the official document, this is to harm me!"
Lu Chuan took a deep look at the inner hall of the room, gritted his teeth, and finally did not break in.
Just like Xu Laogen was able to force the recruitment of troops to him, it was already a yamen of military discord, and if he caught a little mistake, he would definitely not be able to eat and walk around.
After more than two hours of waiting, he understood a truth.
It's all a lie!
What kind of tiger body shocked, the spirit of the king was exposed, and when he climbed high, heroes from all over the world gathered under his command to create a great cause, which is pure nonsense.
Don't say that the nine-grade master who doesn't know how to enter the stream, even if it is the scribe and soap in the yamen, they don't take him seriously.
......
Duty room in the hall.
"My lord, that kid is gone!"
A scribe said respectfully.
"Humph!"
Yuan Jiancheng smiled coldly, his eyes showing disdain.
"My lord, that kid is holding the recruitment documents of thousands of households, and when he comes to the county government to enter the file, he is just going through the motions, and he can't delay for long!"
The scribe said cautiously.
"Of course the official knows!"
Yuan Jiancheng smiled proudly and said proudly, "But he only has ten days to recruit thirty places, and if this official document is not issued for a day, he will not be able to recruit troops openly."
Even if someone is recruited in the end, as long as the official strokes the pen, there will be problems with the household registration of those untouchables, and no one will dare or go with him.
If he can't complete the military order, he will have to shed his skin if he doesn't die!"
"Your Excellency is clever!"
......
"Huh?"
Out of the yamen, Lu Chuan raised his eyebrows, pretending to be distressed and irritable, and came to a street corner for a moment, shaking his hand and raising a bag of lime powder behind him.
Boom!
Before the man could speak, his temple was struck hard, and before he could recover from his vertigo, there was a sharp edge under his ribs.
Experience has taught him that this is a razor-sharp dagger!
"Despicable ......"
The visitor let out a beastly roar in his throat, and was pressed back by a hand like an iron pincer.
Boom!
There was a sound like a bowstring tightening and scraping, which erupted from the collision between the two, and it was a martial artist who had entered the ranks, and the skin was like cow leather!
"Name!"
Lu Chuan twisted the dagger and said, "Answer after thinking clearly, stare at me for a long time, don't look for it!"
Chen ...... Chen Wu!"
The soul of the comer was in a hurry, and the tip of the knife and the body of Sen Ran told him what it meant to be ruthless, and immediately poured beans to explain the beginning and the end!
What's more, if you delay for another hour and a half, you won't be able to save your eyes!
Even if he is a martial artist who is blind, he is also crippled, and he has little value at all, and the end can be imagined.
It can only be said that he was too unlucky to meet a freak with special talents and no martial virtues!
"Chen family!"
Lu Chuan's face was ugly and abnormal.
He had heard that this person was one of the four pro-soldiers around Chen Jinnian, Chen Wu, a martial artist under the Nine Ranks, who specialized in serving Chen Bin's personal guards!
In the past few days, the assassinations of Chen Er and Zhang Wu, Xu Laogen's covetousness and suppression, Yuan Jiancheng's unscrupulousness, and Zhang Youlu's superiority all made Lu Chuan breathe a sigh of relief.
Today, it is even more difficult, which has put Lu Chuan at the critical point of the outbreak.
But even so, I had to endure it.
This dog's way of the world has long told him what it means to be unreasonable.
"Get out!"
With Lu Chuan's low shout, Chen Wu crawled and crawled out of the alley, as if there was a flood beast behind him, and he didn't even dare to say a word about the scene.
"Ahem, if you have the strength, these ...... of miscellaneous people"
Lu Chuan punched hard, smashing the wall with dirt and dirt, and forcibly endured a bad breath, walking from the other side of the alley as if no one was around.
The Chen family still has some scruples now, but once someone dies, what awaits him is ruthless obliteration.
Even if it's just a frame-up, as long as the person is dead, who will speak for the dead?
Even, if it weren't for Lu Chuan's unexpected return, and now he is carrying the military orders of thousands of households, the Chen family would have been a killer long ago!
Weak is the original sin, the ancients did not deceive me!
With a complicated and heavy heart, Lu Chuan had just come out of the alley, and a thin figure flew over, and there were a few coquettish voices.
"Thief!"
"Catch the thief!"
"Stop!"
Lu Chuan's perception was so keen, he didn't want to do much, but when he saw the person's appearance, he grabbed it and twisted it, and lightly clasped the person's wrist.
"Let go ......"
That person struggled, where could he get rid of the strength of a martial artist like Lu Chuan?
"Ahem!"
Lu Chuan flew up and kicked it into the alley, staggered backwards, and coughed violently against the wall.
"You ......"
The man's bones rolled around a few times, and he got up as if he was nothing, and when he heard the shouts that came, he stared at the bag in Lu Chuan's hand unwillingly, and quickly jumped into the alley.
The people who came after him saw that there was no one in the alley, and Lu Chuan withered to the ground again, so he had to stop with hatred.
