Section 361 Honesty does not necessarily lead to loss
Zhang Jinren's crazy brain was awakened by a hard slap, and his arrogance was also scolded.
The other Yagami and cultists saw that the border army that searched the clothes did not stop at all during this period, and they did not return to concentrate on their work, and this time they took away all the good things hidden in the clothes and all the property in the money bags that had not been confiscated before, completely without fear, and did not pay attention to their threats and intimidation at all.
Seeing this scene, the people of the Moroccan Sect should have been even more angry, and they should have immediately displayed the crazy and ferocious side of the arrogant and accustomed cult brainwashers, and immediately started killing and looting, but in fact, they shrank in courage and stopped their coercive steps one after another.
The thunderbolt god Zhang Jinren jumped out first, and then shrank first.
It's really anticlimactic, and it's embarrassing.
Fortunately, he is thick-skinned, and he is a brainwashed psychopath, so he doesn't want a normal face at all, and that face can hold up the loss.
The Heavenly God Shen Gang, the Dunjia God Ying Ming, the Liuding God Xu Tong, the Giant Spirit God Shen Zhen, the Taibai God Huzhou Zhao Yi, and the Tai Sui God Gao Keli also sensed the strangeness and danger here, and scanned the surroundings vigilantly, and then their arrogance dropped.
The vicious ghost god category, the mourning god Wanli originally scolded the most fierce and arrogant, and his expression was the most terrifying and terrifying, but at this moment, his face was embarrassed and embarrassed, his eyes scanned the inn and the outside, and the insult involuntarily lowered his voice, and gradually disappeared.
When the rest of the sect members saw that the leader had withered, they immediately became timid and immediately shut up.
It is not that their conscience is awakened and they shrink back from shame. Their mentality is not normal, and it has long been distorted and perverted.
It's really the prestige that Cangzhao has established for more than ten years is too terrible.
The court is fighting, and they look up to the unattainable prime minister-level bigwigs against Cangzhao, and they only have to fall and suffer one after another.
Fighting at the border, the terrible Khitan army they feared like a tiger encountered Cangzhao, but they only lost their armor and covered the ground with dead corpses.
This is Cheongju. Not Gangnam.
With such a small number of menpower, they lacked weapons, had no strong reinforcements, were unfamiliar with the place, and fought against Cangzhao, and competed with the Qingzhou border army that could fight the Khitan elite cavalry all over the place. Even if you are good at drilling into the mountains and playing with your heart and eyes to fight mountain warfare, I am afraid that it will be a game of cat and mouse played by the border army that occupies all the advantages of the time, place and people, and it is difficult to have a good end.
The most important thing is that they are afraid that the border army will plot their property, so they are waiting for an excuse to eliminate them, so as to deal with the inquiries of Wen Chenghou and cover up the mouth of the world. If they dare to commit a forcible attack here, they are afraid that they will be ambushed and slaughtered by an unknown person, just as swift and terrible as the Liao army being raided and tortured in the willow forest.
Ultimately. They were frightened by the terrifying cavalry of the Liao army, and their psychology fell into a shadow, and when they encountered an abnormality, they were easily suspicious, and they were also afraid of the fierce attack of the Qingzhou army in their hearts, and they did not have the courage to really compete with the border army in Cangbei. If they are familiar and accustomed to Jiangnan, they may have the confidence to arrogantly provoke the battle.
The subordinates shrank, and hundreds of people surrounded a small border army, Yu Hou, who did not dare to enter. Neither is it a retreat.
Lu Shinang, the leading brother, sat and pulled, and he couldn't pretend/force to pretend. We are urgently thinking about how to deal with it, save face, and resolve the crisis.
At this time, the cute and amiable smiling face of the fat shopkeeper came again.
"Hehe, you have just come back from the north, and the evil aura dyed by the barbarian has not yet disappeared, and it is easy to be impulsive, and it is a strong man with strong blood, so you can make do with the fire. Something happened when the fire started, hehe, normal. Hehe, it's normal. Understandable. ”
Under the grateful gaze of Lu Shinang, the shopkeeper's words changed. Although he was still smiling, he opened his mouth and said, "If you didn't have a good grasp of the proportions just now, and really regarded Cangbei as your own backyard where you can exert your power at will, it would not be good."
You are heroes who dare to kill Liao dogs, not afraid of death, not sparing your life. The enemy and the heroes of the world dare not commit murder and cause trouble in Cangbei, you dare. Small can be admired. But the small shop is a serious business, and it has been stained with the blood of dead corpses and spread out, so it will not be easy to do business in the future. Therefore, if you want to compete with Hou Ye's subordinates, and want to try what is terrible about the jurisdiction of Cangbei Military Prefecture, it is best to have mercy on Xiao Ke, this person is not easy to survive, please go to the inn to make trouble. ”
Hearing this, the hearts of the people of the Mo Sect were on fire, and they were angry again when they were not convinced.
Lu Shisang heard the kindness of the reminder and warning implied in it.
The shopkeeper is euphemistically admonishing: Wen Chenghou's prestige is not blown out. There are many terrifying arrangements in the four military states of Cangbei that you can't see, which are used to deal with the invasion of the Liao army, and also to prevent vicious emergencies caused by the chaos and hidden dangers brought about by opening up. Doing your duty and being a horse dealer is the way to go.
When Lu Shisang was furious, he originally thought that anyway, the three gods had sent tens of thousands of horses and huge wealth and many weapons and equipment back to Jiangnan, and the Mojiao sect already had enough horses, and there was no need to go north through the pass of Ma Zheng's opening.
When he calmed down and thought about it, he couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.
Cheongju must indeed have something terrible to prevent, otherwise it would not be possible to be so peaceful, I am afraid that these people will either die or be arrested for their murder.
Dead is dead. The one who was arrested was afraid that he confessed his secret under Miki.
When the imperial court learned that the rebellion of the Mojiao sect seriously threatened the fundamental land of taxation, it would inevitably immediately dispatch officials and troops to attack the whole world, for fear that the great cause of the Mojiao would collapse before it officially began.
If that is the consequence, then he is a sinner of the Sect through the ages.
Considering this, how could he still sit still, and quickly got up and scolded his subordinates: "A certain Zhiwen Cheng Marquis is benevolent and generous, and he doesn't care about the reckless people in the countryside who can't think about it for a while and makes a fuss to vent his emotions, so he didn't stop you immediately." Now that it's been a fuss, and the fire that has accumulated in Liaogou has also been vented, what are you still staring at?
Why don't you retreat and wait honestly for a good rest after taking a bath and eating, and then return home safely? ”
The nine gods of Jiangnan suppressed the anger that had just risen, and also scolded their subordinates to disperse.
Seeing that the Mo sect had shrunk, Yu Hou did not continue to be aggressive, and became a statue again and quietly watched his subordinates inspect their clothes in batches.
Lu Shisang secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
The good things that Jiangnan Jiushen had privately hidden were also taken away, but the contents of the money bags that had been searched were saved.
Fortunately, it was not directly searched out of them in public, and the sect members did not know that the leaders were also hiding their secrets, and the face of the nine gods was not obvious. The prestige of these subordinates and the Church will not be affected. Nor will the Sect Master know that they are acting selfishly and unfaithfully.
Only then did they realize why the border troops did not press them down in public at the border pass and forcibly search them like criminals.
It turned out that he deliberately arranged someone to follow him to search for clothes in the inn, not because he was deliberately calculating, but because he was already taking care of their face.
Taking away the extra non-contraband is nothing more than a financial punishment for their disobedience and trouble.
This is much better than punishing them by asking them for their crimes. Otherwise, it will be difficult to ensure that the secrets of the religion will not be leaked under the punishment.
If you are somewhere else, the government will not be polite to you. He will directly take people and inflict corporal punishment, and by the way, he will take away and seize all his property.
With such a comparison, I feel that Wen Chenghou is indeed a good official.
Being able to manage the unbearable officers and troops and the chaotic and dangerous border passes to such an extent, Cangzhao's methods are indeed awe-inspiring and admirable.
Lu Shisang and the nine gods didn't dare to make trouble by chance, and they also figured it out, Yu Hou didn't force people into a desperate situation, and they let the border army loot their property.
Anyway, the best things that were plundered and handed over in the first place were collected by them.
There is nothing left for the subordinates. They also had treasures in their money bags, which were more than enough to cover the cost of returning to Jiangnan.
Yu Hou completed the search task, and before leaving, he handed a green jade plate to Lu Shinang.
"My family is handsome. The heroes who go north to get horses should not be treated badly. If you take this item to the Qianning military defense area and give it to the patrol defenders of the inn, you will receive double the number of horses from the Qianning army. This is compensation for your hard work. ”
When Lu Shisang heard this, he was stupid at that time.
Jiangnan Jiushen is also stupid.
As for the congregation, they are even more stupid.
The people have always been only exploited, troubled, and oppressed. They had never heard of the government compensating the people substantially and considerately.
This Wen Chenghou does not follow the rules, and his actions reflect the lofty and benevolent righteousness everywhere, and he is very particular, he is really that good?
That Yuhou may have seen that they were honest and performed well, so he deliberately nodded: "They are all northern horses." Welcome back. ”
After speaking. Walked away with his subordinates.
Only then did Lu Shisang come back to his senses and sighed. Carefully look at the cards in your hand, only to find that although it is like a round green jade, the weight is very light, the material is not stone, I don't know what it is made of, it is extremely exquisite and hard. One side is carved with a clear character, one side is a Zhao character, and there are mysterious patterns around it, which is obviously a special object for the Marquis of Wencheng to convey orders to prove identity.
Everyone has never seen such a strange thing, it should be an inimitable rare treasure obtained by the Cangzhao family. It's a pity that such a unique thing marked by Cangzhao can't be exchanged for huge wealth, and it has to be exchanged for a horse to give the sect leader an explanation, and a horse can go home early.
Soon to the south, there will be more than 1,500 horses, and the journey from the north to the south of the Yangtze River is too long, and the cost of this journey will be large.
Lu Shisang believes that Wen Chenghou will not use horses to deceive people, think about it or this extraordinary Hou Ye is safe and reliable under the rule, this inn treats people with integrity, and the jewelry exchange price is reasonable, so he simply exchanged everything except for the good things that are ready to be dedicated to the sect leader for silver, which is convenient to disperse and carry expenses along the way, and also to avoid the precious jewelry from being easily stolen by empty hands for a while, and everyone has become a dilemma Arima beggars.
After resting for a night, the next day, Lu Shinang, who was like an arrow, went south with everyone.
On foot, the road is not only one day to the military area of Deqianning.
Lu Shisang believed that Wen Chenghou also had an eye on it, and deliberately voted for an inn on the border between Qianning Army and Cangzhou before taking out the sign.
There is a large mountain near this inn, making it easy to hide or escape.
If Wen Chenghou is hypocritical and hypocritical, or if the Qianning army is greedy and harms them, they can avoid it in time.
The sign was handed to the head of the patrol guards.
The soldier checked the sign, nodded, and said, "You 777 people, right?" ”
It seems that it was notified early.
After getting the affirmation, the military man didn't bother and immediately rode away with the sign.
Lu Shisang asked the sect members to wait outside the inn to hide, only he and the nine gods of Jiangnan, who can fight their way out of the encirclement, waited anxiously at the inn for the result of not knowing whether it was good or bad.
It didn't take long for the earth to shake. The tea on the table rippled and became more and more agitated.
Lu Shisang has been working on horses in Liao for a year, and knows that this is a sign that a large number of war horses are coming.
His heart instantly tensed, with high anticipation and fear.
Hearing the roar of horses' hooves approaching the inn, several people could not sit still, ran out of the inn, and waited in anticipation from a position convenient for escape.
After seeing it clearly, the members of the Mo Sect, including Lu Shinang, all breathed a long sigh of relief.
It is a thousand horses that come under black pressure, and look at the running to know that it is indeed a northern horse, even if it is not good, it is stronger than the war horse raised by the Great Song Dynasty, and the Marquis of Wen Cheng is really true to his word.
There were only a dozen or so Song soldiers escorted.
War horses are well-trained, accustomed to running with the herd, in a safe area that is not a vast grassland, a good horse rider can control the horse herd if he controls the head horse, and it really doesn't take too many people to send it. It also proves that the Qianning Army is really carrying out the orders of Marquis Wen Cheng, and has no intention of murdering the horse collectors to seize the benefits of private distribution.
When the horse team came to the inn, the officer who took the lead shouted rudely: "Where is the horse collector?" ”
Lu Shisang smiled on his face, for the first time, he did not have the prestige of the people in the anti-sensory mansion, and stepped forward and hugged his fist and said, "Xiao Ke is here." ”
The officer didn't look at him carefully, but turned his head and asked the innkeeper who gave the sign and went with him: "But this person?" ”
The inspector nodded, "Back to Captain, exactly." ”
The officer said to Lu Shinang: "777 people, one for two." You've got it counted. ”
What do you pay off?
Absolutely more than 1,000 horses. As for less, what's the matter. It should be for the sake of safety and repay the Qianning Army.
With this in mind, Lu Shisang hurriedly smiled and said, "A certain family can trust adults. You don't have to count it anymore. ”
Unexpectedly, the officer frowned, and said in a soothing tone: "My Cangbei Army's military law is like a mountain, and everything must be done clearly and clearly." Don't be afraid, don't worry about anything. Take a good inventory and write a receipt. The official should go back and pay the account. ”
Belch?
Lu Shisang carefully observed the officer's expression and judged that it was not the high-sounding false statements that were common in official faces.
With this judgment, the number of horses must be enough, not to mention.
But Lu Shisang asked his subordinates to quickly distinguish between the two horses according to his words.
Sure enough, there are not many horses, but there are not many excellent war horses, but there are no crippled horses, and half of them are equipped with complete harnesses, although they are not good, they are convenient enough for the receiver to ride. That's already a huge asset.
If the receiver is really a horse dealer who is just seeking money, he has already made a fortune now, and there is certainly nothing to be dissatisfied with the disposition of the Qianning army.
Lu Shisang was not dissatisfied at the moment.
This result has exceeded his expectations too much, and it is enough for him to go back to the errand, how can he not be satisfied and complain about causing accidents again.
After receiving the horses, the Mojiao people immediately left the inn and rushed into Cangzhou to prevent the Qianning army from plotting again, and avoided the Cangzhou garrison, passed through the state and ran into Binzhou.
After Qingzhou and into the hinterland of the Great Song Dynasty, the horse team could not approach Tokyo as quickly as possible, and the horse team could not pass by such a huge herd, but must be dispersed, and secretly echoed from the remote place in the form of a normal horse dealer. Otherwise, it would be impossible to bring the horse back to Jiangnan. (To be continued.) )
