1.6 Secretly crossing Chencang
Shi Jian has ordered someone to inspect it. He died by poisoning. A highly toxic sac made of fish bubbles, which is contained under the base of the tongue.
It's easy to want to die.
The county officials arrived in the afternoon. first saw the corpses all over the ground, and then saw the body of the chief who died of poisoning, and then listened to the details of the officials. Then put together the broken nine-song mandarin duck pot. There are both human and material evidence. The cause and effect of the incident are very clear.
Then he wrote the inquest document and brought it to Liu Bei for seeing.
The process is more or less similar. It's just that the person who committed suicide by taking poison was written as the mastermind. In fact, in Liu Bei's view, this may not be the case. However, he acquiesced to what the clerk said. And signed the seal of General Fu Han and Hou Hou of Han Linxiang. The documents are in duplicate. Liu Bei took one by himself. Leave it as physical evidence. If someone alters or rewrites without authorization, it can be used as evidence.
The officials of the center, big and small, as well as the county officials who came in a hurry, all breathed a sigh of relief.
Without waiting for the report to the county, he sent Liu Bei away.
The person who used the long chopstick to clamp the poisoned arrow was Sister Yan'er. If she is called a bear girl, she must have strength. She is the only one of the sisters who can dance the eight-sided two-handed sword into a snowflake with one hand. and proficient in dual-wielding. Both left and right hands can be used for both long and short lengths. Sword and shield, double sword, both strong.
The eight-sided Han sword is seven feet (160 cm) long. Heavy slash.
Six-faced sword. Usually five feet two inches (120 cm), heavy stabbing strikes.
It is said that when he was young, he only practiced his left hand. Later, I was shocked to realize that the left and right sides were gradually asymmetrical. The left side is large, and the right side is small. And he practiced his right hand hard. So on the left and right, you chase after me and fight bravely. Seeing that she was competing with herself all day long, Gongsun said: Why don't you practice two-handed swords?
That's when I woke up. So he practiced his two-handed sword skills without mentioning it. The cold comes and the summer goes by, and the stars change. It's finally a big deal. The left and right sides look horizontally as one, and the side looks flush.
The Linxiang convoy replenished the forage and drinking water, set off again, and went to Luoyang.
Ten miles to be traveled. Sister Wan'er asked: "Just because there is less wine in the pot?" ”
"Definitely." Liu Bei replied with a smile: "How big the flaws are. ”
"Where's the flaw?" Sister Yan'er asked.
"Without it, empathy. If I am the mastermind, even if I can rob the donation, how will it end? Liu Bei finally said the key.
"Well......" the seven sisters pondered.
The fourth sister Bi'er spoke up first: "But are you afraid that the great sage and good teacher will blame you?" ”
Sister Bi'er's eyes are blue, and her hair color is golden and white. It is a rare gold and silver thread. Because of the natural gray hair, the mother named it after the color of the eyes. It is said that he was born in the Kushan royal family, and why he was sold to the Central Plains, it is unknown.
"That's right," Liu Bei nodded and said, "Great sage and good teacher, I am also friends and foes." And being in a high position, how could he use swords and soldiers for more than 6,000 pieces of gold cakes. In my opinion, the great sages and good teachers are interested in all kinds of advanced creations in the countryside. And not money. Therefore, most of the people sent to ask for design manuscripts were never mentioned for money. When I was young, someone had the idea of making a fortune, and the great sage and good teacher gouged out one eye of the mastermind and made amends to me. Now there is the idea of donating money. Think about it, what should the great sages and good teachers do when they learn about it? ”
"Another eye?" Sister Xiang'er blurted out.
Liu Bei smiled and nodded: "The first time I gouged my eyes and warned." If he recidivists, he will be severely punished. In other words. This time, whether it is robbed or not, the mastermind cannot be handed over. Just don't do it. Let us all be burned in the fire. It's a hundred. When I go to meet the great sages and good teachers again. The matter has come to this point, and the great sages and good teachers can only let it go. ”
"If you seek riches, you will be put to death. Why is it not to blame for the murder? Sister Li'er, who had long yellow-brown hair, couldn't help asking. Sister Li Er is the youngest of the seven sisters, and her mother named her after her because her hair color was close to 'Li'.
Sister Yan'er explained: "What the great sage and good teacher value most is the master of Lingxiu Tiancheng. Don't let anyone wait in Taiping Road, and move the master at all. Therefore, this robbery, whether it succeeds or not, it is inevitable that you will die when you go back. But once the master is killed, there is no one in the countryside who is valued by the great sage and good teacher. I won't blame it. ”
Sister Wan'er also realized: "The only thing that a great sage and good teacher values is the master. If the master is here, in order to maintain the relationship between the two families, the great sage and good teacher will be severely punished. If the owner is killed, the hometown is no longer important. As the saying goes, the wood is already in the boat, and the great sage and good teacher will not kill the mastermind behind this matter. Because there is no need to explain to anyone, and there is no profit. Therefore, those who do this can only succeed, not fail. ”
Everyone woke up.
In other words, if you want the whole event to have a beginning and an end. Seeking money and killing must be done at the same time.
If you only seek money, whether you succeed or not, you will not be able to escape death when you go back. So from the very beginning, Liu Bei understood that the mastermind behind it would not give up easily. Even after eradicating the presumption, he never let his guard down.
Always be vigilant. This is how to find the clues at the banquet.
I don't know if the true and false duo is the mastermind behind it. or someone else.
In any case, it is always right for the Linxiang convoy to be on guard all the way. Until turning onto the county road, drive into the territory of Meiji County, where the Southern Xiongnu royal court is. The Southern Hun King Tu Teruo's corpse was ordered one by one, and he led the Southern Hun King to ride to greet him, and Liu Bei was a little relieved.
The reason why the attack site was located along the Northern Road may be to avoid the Southern Xiongnu.
The only mystery that Liu Bei didn't solve: how did the mastermind behind it know the route of the convoy?
This sent a letter to the two family members, and the family order was different. Be careful, don't be careless.
The king of the Southern Xiongnu also went to Luo with Liu Bei.
With him by his side, the road is safe.
Mixed into the Southern Xiongnu carriages and horses, the convoy was mighty, turned into the Linjin branch road, and continued south.
After crossing the Yellow River, you can enter the Oriental Road again, and you can reach Luoyang all the way.
The Eastern Province is the main artery connecting Kanchu with the entire Kanto region. Out of Guguan, along the Yellow River through Luoyang, Chenliu, Dingtao, Taishan, Linzi, Jiaoxi to the easternmost mountain of the Shandong Peninsula. Among them, Chenliu, Dingtao, and Linzi are all county seats, and they are the important 'Tongyi capitals' at present. The cars and horses on the road are rushing endlessly. It's very busy.
When he arrived at the ferry, Xiao Han had just passed a few days. The great river has not yet been frozen. The river is choppy, and there are still thousands of stone boats coming and going. Originally, it was also fast to rush to Luoyang by boat. Liu Bei insisted on crossing the river and taking the Eastern Road. Somehow.
The crowd asked, but Liu Bei smiled and did not answer. Just say that it is a convoy, so it is natural to take a walk on the big Han Chi Road.
And so he did what he was told. Cross the river and enter the Eastern Way. Cross Chenggao Pass and head to Luoyang.
Chenggao Pass, known as Tiger Prison Pass in the pre-Qin period. It was named after King Mu of Zhou who was named after the "Tiger" here. This pass is connected with Songyue in the south, the Yellow River in the north, and the mountains are staggered, which is a natural danger. It is the eastern gateway of Luoyang. It controls the water and land transportation from the west to Luoyang. Those who enter Luoyang from the east in the west must first take this pass.
Sure enough, it is a Xiongguan.
Liu Bei deliberately got out of the car and looked up at Xiongguan. I can't help but wander out of the world.
When entering the customs, there were already officials waiting here.
It turned out that three days after the departure of the Linxiang Shangji convoy, a paddle steamer fleet under the banner of Cui's caravan set off from Nangang and entered the big river, arriving in Luoyang a few days ahead of schedule. Zhang Xiaopang and donating money are all on the boat.
I see!
Everyone woke up. This is a plan to repair the plank road and secretly cross the Chen Cang.
More than 60 million donation fees have been entrusted to the Yellow Gate Order Zuo Feng, and the offering is forbidden.
It is said that His Majesty was very pleased. Recently, I asked when the Linxianghou would arrive.
