One hundred and seventeen: Enter the city

In the martial arts, there is such a saying, that is, the practice of martial arts is a means of skillful creation, whether it is outside or inside, the purpose is to be able to become stronger, the heart demon oath is to bet on the unlimited potential of his future, if he violates the oath, he will one day suffer the curse of heaven -

Of course, this is all feudal superstition made up by the imperial court or religion, Yun Xingyan doesn't believe it anyway, so he said: "That's it, instead of swearing or something, I still believe in such a thing, and I don't need to threaten you with poison and those indiscriminate means, how can I trust you?" ”

"This ......"

Yi Yinyang pondered it again, took out a parchment map from his arms, and said: "This is the map of the Blood Hidden Sect's main altar, if I have the intention of rebellion, you can use this map to find the location of our main altar and exterminate it, I bet on the rise and fall of a sect, isn't this sincerity enough?" ”

"Well, Sect Master Yi can bend and stretch, it is really a big husband's doing! Xu Mad, put this picture away! ”

Yun Xingyan threw this map to Xu Mad, and then ignored him, and after throwing him a few pills to save his life, he said to him: "Go to Luoyang in three days, take my token and go to Wangbeilou to find the person in charge there, if I can't find you when I return to Luoyang, don't blame me for sending the map directly to the military department, do you hear clearly?" ”

Now that he is controlled by others, Yi Yinyang nodded and said: "Don't worry, the old man doesn't dare to bet against you with a faction of honor and disgrace, but ...... I have a reluctant request, if I do my best to help you, can the king let me ascend to the hegemony of the martial arts alliance leader? ”

"You're going to do business!"

Yun Xingyan said: "But you have to be clear, now you don't have the qualifications to talk to me about conditions, don't go too far!" ”

"Yes......"

Yi Yinyang had no choice but to nod his head, and then Yun Xingyan and Xu Mad left, returned to the river, saw Su Lie riding a horse and waiting here, and saw the two of them coming back, so he asked, "Lord Wang, Mr. Xu, where have you been?" It's easy for me to find! ”

"Don't worry, we just walked around the neighborhood looking for something to eat...... Seeing that you have brought so many things back, it seems that there is no need! Yun Xingyan smiled and pointed to the food box and wine dishes packed on the side, Xu Mad hurriedly opened the box at this time and picked up the wine jug and ate it himself, he was a rebellious man, coupled with the displacement these days, so that he had long forgotten his demeanor, Yun Xingyan didn't care about these with him, so he sat down, and after the three of them finished eating, they saw Su Lie say: "By the way, the lord of the Changle Gang promised to send us over the city, but now that the situation is chaotic, the closer to Luoyang's city defense, the more strict the defense, we will count Yucheng, It is also difficult to reach Kaifeng, the leader of the Changle Gang said, now the Sili generation is recruiting, over 18 years old, under 40 years old are recruiting targets, in the vicinity of Kaifeng is the most significant, if we take this road, I am afraid that there will be conflicts with local officials, so should we re-plan the route? ”

Yun Xingyan shook his head and said: "No need, since Kaifeng recruits troops, who can guarantee that there will be no recruits around Xuchang?" After Kaifeng, it will be safe to get on the boat, we don't need to make more trouble, Xu Mad, what do you say? ”

"The Lord is right!"

Xu Mad Zhengse said: "There are our disciples in Kaifeng Wangbeilou, at least we can ensure our safety when we take the boat, but now it is difficult on the road from Yucheng to Kaifeng...... Su Lie, didn't that gang leader ask us about our identity? ”

Su Lie said: "I asked, I said that it was two fellow villagers who wanted to go to Luoyang to join relatives and friends, and they came to Luoyang to seek development when they couldn't get along in their hometown, but they also offended people at home, and they were afraid that the enemy would chase and kill them, so they asked me to find him, and I found him, it's as simple as that!" He said that there will be a batch of rice and grain from the Changle Gang from Yucheng to Shangqiu tonight, and we can hide it in its ** city, and then this pass will be over, and the horses have the clothes I brought from the Changle Gang, and we will enter the city while it is dark after we change them! ”

——

So the three of them disguised, and in an instant, they entered the city, the Changle Gang used to be the underworld of the rivers and lakes, and now they have transformed into transportation, saying that they are the dart bureau, but they are not, because the dart bureau does not care about these fragmentary loose work, so the Changle Gang started these tasks to protect the nearby rice merchants, and the government saw that they were also happy to help.

In the evening, several people successfully mixed into the transportation team, and after entering the city, Yun Xingyan glanced at the notices posted on the side, most of the content on them were some encouragement to the people to actively respond to the call and rewards of the imperial court's conscription, which made Yun Xingyan very puzzling, the imperial court is now completely sufficient, but what is it to do to expand the army?

Although it was very puzzled, the big seal of the Yamen of the Ministry of War was stamped on it, and when Yun Xing was in the middle of his hair, an errand officer scolded him: "What do you see? Do you know how to read? Just watch it here? ”

"You're still glaring at me? Hey, I said, are you Changle Gang people cheap? used to be an enemy of the government, but now Lord Shi rewards you with a bowl of rice regardless of your previous suspicions, and you repay him like this? ”

Yun Xingyan was very helpless, thinking in his heart that the security of Yucheng County was not very good, but there were also cool officials, especially some low-level little people, who thought that they would be able to show off their might in front of the people if they were caught quickly, but they would not do anything with taxpayers' money, but they would be powerful in the fish and meat township, if it was Yun Xingyan three years ago, although he was as depressed as now, he would definitely pull out his sword and fight with them, but now that time has passed, that pure heart has long been dusty, so he just nodded yes and left......

After entering the city, the three of them came to the side of the wall to squat, Su Lie went to ask the messenger to ask for a bowl of tea for Yun Xingyan to quench his thirst, and now it was just after noon, the sky was in full bloom, and there was still a long time before the evening, so a few people sat here to pass the time, Xu Mad this guy sat on the side and watched a few old men play chess, and from time to time to give people guidance......

"How did you get off, vaulting horse, the vaulting general stepped on his car by the way!"

"And you, Cannon 9 Ping will kill him in one go, won't you stab him to death if you have a car there?"

"You ......"

"Enough!"

An old man said impatiently: "What a true gentleman who is silent watching chess, do you think you can't think of what you said?" The little rabbit cub is full of alcohol, and he is not ashamed to come here to watch the masters play chess! ”

"That's it!"

The old man on the opposite side stroked his beard and echoed: "It's too uneducated, if my son were like him, I would have whipped him with a stick!" But then again, this court has not been peaceful for decades, and it has been conscripted every year to fight every year, and the emperor said that it was to resist the invasion of the wolf clan and protect the people, but now? There is endless civil strife, today with the Yue Kingdom, tomorrow with the Shu Kingdom, who knows the day after tomorrow which princes are unlucky, hey, when will this be the head! ”

"Yes! Anyway, when your son died, didn't the court make up two acres of land for your family? The harvest has been okay these years, right? ”

"it, there are no young adults in the family, who is going to reclaim the fields? Do you want me, the old man, to go on it himself? It has long been sold for fifty taels and one acres......"

"Huh? That's a shame, it's such a nice place, and there's water next to it."

Xu Crazy listened to the old man and pulled up the short toilet in the family and lost interest, in the blink of an eye, it was night, several people were arranged to go to the rice warehouse to work, a few people symbolically moved a few bags of rice, and then went out of the city with the team, but the person sitting at the west gate to check the identity made Yun Xingyan have to be careful, he is Shi Da who has a festival with himself, I didn't expect him to come to Yucheng in person to supervise such a major event of grain collection, if he finds out, then they are in a catastrophe!

At the same time, on the other side, Twilight Rushuang was now spending Xiayi City with Xu Ling, looking at the half-burned city tower and the surrounding sky-piercing sword marks, he suddenly had a bad premonition in his heart, so he asked the city guards: "Dare to ask what happened here?" Why is the Xiayi Pass so dilapidated? ”

The husband of the garrison said: "Princess Qiyu Ning, two days ago, someone here forcibly broke through the pass, set fire to the city, and made a mess in the state capital, although the county order sent people to arrest it, but it was nowhere to be found, and it has now been handed over to the six doors to deal with this matter!" ”
