Chapter 165: The Iron Mask of the Slave
In the middle courtyard of the Wei Taipo Mansion, there is still a large stain of scarlet and stinking blood.
With Sima Wei's imprisonment, the corpses of the deceased have been completely collected without scruples. The courtiers walked into the Taibao Mansion with a feeling of affection to remember the deceased elders.
And when they passed by the middle courtyard, they would still stop and watch, and then they couldn't help but be angry: King Qinghe, you are the main general of this "action", and you are the king of the dignified county, why can't you even use the ability to stop a small murderer?
Sima Yaoji had been sitting in blood for nearly a whole day.
He was sad, he was afraid, he was melancholy, he was disappointed, he hated, he was helpless, he was numb, but, no matter what kind of emotions he had, he could never forget the way Boss Wei looked at him before he died.
There was no pain and regret in those eyes, but relief and relief, and even pity and pity?
He didn't want it, he didn't want to get that kind of gaze.
He would rather Wei Qian hate him than Wei Qian pity him. He needs a dying man, pity! But only now did he realize how precious that care from the deceased was to him.
He was once respected and admired by many people, and on this day, he was resented and despised by many eyes.
He wanted to shout to the whole world, he tried, he really used all his power to stop this tragedy.
But in the end, he could only cowardly pick up the old man who fell in a pool of blood, and cried bitterly, he was really a waste, a waste!
On the other side of Dazaifu, there is also a sad atmosphere.
However, there is one less Sima Yao and one more Pei Kai here. Although Sima Liang was also full of suffering, Pei Kai took Sima Yi to flee frantically overnight, and he was not caught by Sima Wei, who had a deep grudge and specially sent soldiers to hunt him down.
Eight-year-old Sima Yi was overly sad and unable to receive guests. Pei Kai simply received the visitor for him......
Luoyang City was in chaos, and Champion City was also turned upside down by Zheng Sheng. Zheng Sheng and his entourage of dozens of fast horses came with fierce momentum. The situation made the champion county dare not come forward, and the county magistrate Rui Cheng even sent a fast horse to report directly to Nanyang County for help.
By noon, the King of Shunyang, the Duke of Xinye, and the Nanyang County Government were all alarmed, plus the Zheng clan and Zheng Wen, people from all over the world gathered in the Champion City.
Zheng Sheng, who searched for a long time, but did not find any trace of Xun Zaimin and Mr. Ge, had to give up the search and apologize to others, so as to end the mess.
When he returned home, Sima Xin, who was originally serving the sick, was waiting for him. He delayed the filial piety of others, Zheng Sheng felt guilty and told him roughly what happened. Sima Xin pondered for a moment, "There is nothing wrong with what you did in this matter. handed over to the government, but it was troublesome. This is the best way to deal with it. But that Xun Zaimin and Mr. Ge, since they weren't caught, I'm afraid they have already fled far away, and you don't have to pursue them anymore. ”
Zheng Sheng agreed. After saying this, Sima Xin returned to Ju Valley.
Subsequently, Zheng Wen came to teach him again. Zheng Sheng repeatedly promised that he would not come nonsense in the future, so Zheng Wen let him go.
Send Zheng Wen away. Zheng Sheng decided to meet Wen Chong again. Although he promised not to pursue Mr. Ge and Xun Zaimin again, he always wanted to understand this matter more clearly.
Outside the detention cell, Zheng Sheng heard a painful wail, and Wen Xiaoting's angry shouts mixed with it.
Zheng Sheng knew that something was wrong, and hurriedly walked into the room, only to see Wen Xiaoting punching and kicking the man. The two guards couldn't stop her, but Qing'er and Sniff'er stood aside and coaxed Wen Xiaoting to cheer for her.
Zheng Sheng shouted again and again to stop, and finally stopped her, and couldn't help complaining: "Wen Xiaoting, are you enough?" For your sake, how have we all been tired in the past two days? You still beat people, why are you beating people? ”
Wen Xiaoting was panting, she glanced at Wen Chong angrily again, and turned away. Zheng Sheng reluctantly motioned for Qing'er to accompany her, and called Jiading to ask a doctor to come and check the injury for Wen Chong.
When he went out, Zheng Sheng asked Liu Wei'er: "What's the matter?" You're going too far! "Although the approach is not authentic, no matter what, Wen Chong is also a member of the Wen clan of Qian County, and he is Wen Xiaoting's nominal elder.
We asked clearly, and Wen Chong said that he had not returned to Qian County for more than ten years, and he was looking for friends in various counties in Yuzhou all the year round, and his life was in dire straits. He said that the head of the Wen family invited Xiaoting home, but he also lied to us. ”
The thought in Zheng Sheng's mind turned and turned, "This ......"
"Mr. Ge promised him that after the matter was completed, he would give him one million dollars for travel expenses." Liu Wen'er said softly, "Shizi, shouldn't this kind of person be beaten?" ”
Zheng Sheng understood at this time, and couldn't help but say: "It's time to fight!" I, I'm going to beat him too! Zheng Sheng turned around and walked back.
Liu Wei'er hurriedly grabbed him, "Shizi, if you go to fight again, something will really happen." ”
Zheng Sheng calmed down a little and replied, "Yes, I shouldn't have beaten him." Leave it to Xiaoting and let her vent her anger slowly. Tell the doctor well, save him, and let Xiaoting beat him again! Keep repeating this process. Zheng Sheng gritted his teeth as he said.
Liu Wen'er was speechless.
"Also, what Mr. Ge, don't let me catch you!" Zheng Sheng continued.
He couldn't forget that this person was behind the scenes. It's just a pity, his speed is fast enough, but Mr. Ge got away from the championship after learning about Xun Jaemin's plan. This is indeed a cunning old fox.
Na Xun Zaimin is also a little fox, and he probably escaped after noticing Ge's escape.
Only a poor sour scholar was left in the way.
Wen Xiaoting once again walked into the mental state that was first in time when she heard Wen's nightmare.
His eyes were blank, his face was like that of a dead corpse, and he did not say a word. Of course, the difference from before is that she practiced frantically during her martial arts training time.
Zheng Sheng asked Qing'er and Liu Wen'er to accompany her every step of the way, comforting her, for fear that she would have an accident.
The matter of the private treasury can only be suspended. That didn't last long, though.
On the third day, Zheng Sheng got Luoyang's flying pigeon biography. Before he could take a closer look, the Champion County actually sent someone to see him.
"We've found that 'Mr. Ge'." The little official said.
Zheng Sheng stood up in shock.
"He's gone insane, though." The clerk added.
Zheng Sheng's face changed instantly, "Could it be that your county magistrate is here to provoke me?" ”
The little official hurriedly explained: "Don't dare, don't dare, my family said it, please ask the prince to come over, and you will know the truth when you see it." ”
Zheng Sheng thought about it, took a few family members, and went to Champion County with the little officials.
The little official took the road and did not enter the county seat, but went straight to a village called Jiangjunli not far west of the county seat.
Zheng Sheng walked into the village with the little official, and he found that most of the villagers had surprised and shocked expressions, and he couldn't help but feel strange. Champion County is very close to Jiangjunli, and he Zheng Sheng is a well-known figure in the nearby township, and they won't know about the affairs of Champion County when he makes a big fuss. But why do they look like this?
Zheng Sheng was puzzled, and walked with the little official to a small courtyard in the village. This place has been controlled by the government, but there are still many villagers gathered not far away, whispering and pointing at the place, and talking about it.
Zheng Sheng met the champion county commander Rui Cheng again. Rui Cheng stepped forward and greeted Zheng Sheng: "Zheng Shizi, I haven't seen you for a few days, how are you doing lately?" ”
Zheng Sheng returned the salute: "Hello, County Magistrate Rui." That Mr. Ge, hiding in this place? ”
Rui Cheng gestured, and the little official handed over a piece of paper with blood-red characters. Zheng Sheng couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, "This? ”
"The son of the world, it is considerable."
Zheng Sheng took it and couldn't help frowning, the paper was the Zheng Zi paper he was most familiar with. The words are written in blood and ink.
Zheng Sheng only looked at the title and was even more surprised: "Self-regret book? Rui Cheng nodded.
Zheng Sheng hurriedly continued to look down. After reading the letter, he first looked at Rui Cheng. Rui Cheng said with a smile: "An Youde and others in Anjiashe have confirmed that this person is indeed Zhuge Xintao. It's just that this person has gone crazy and can't even speak, does Zheng Shizi still want to see him? ”
Zheng Sheng thought for a moment, shook his head and said, "No need." This, says it all. ”
Zheng Shizi rest assured, only the official has read all the contents on this paper. A certain guarantee, tight-lipped as a bottle will never be leaked. Please rest assured. ”
Zheng Sheng smiled: "Thank you, but how could he go crazy?" ”
Rui Cheng explained: "The courtyard here originally belonged to Guan Xianqiu, a villager in Jiangjunli. At the beginning of last month, Guan Xianqiu rented it to two strangers, Karma Nu and Tiemian. But now, the two men are also missing. ”
Rui Cheng called another old man, "He is General Lizheng Han Mao." Han Lizheng, you come to say to Zheng Shizi. ”
"Slave and Iron Mask are strangers, but they are very good people. Especially the slaves, she has a lot of strength and often helps the villagers. The county magistrate and the prince, they don't look like people who can do evil! ”
"Karma? Iron Mask? Zheng Sheng asked strangely.
"Yes, because the Karma slave is a Karma, and Iron Mask wears an iron mask."
"So you guys nicknamed people?"
"No, that's what they call themselves."
Rui Cheng had no choice but to interject: "Han Lizheng, I called you here, not to make you intercede for others. Tell Zheng Shizi about the situation of these two people in the past two days. ”
"Yesterday, as in the past, the slave helped the old man Guan in the south of the village carry water and took care of the three children for his neighbor Han Ruicong. No one heard anything strange in his house. ”
"And then Mr. Ge appeared here? And they disappeared without noticing? Rui Cheng said angrily.
Zheng Sheng waved his hand, "County Magistrate Rui, these two righteous men have helped me a lot, and I don't have to get to the bottom of it." Let's stop here. ”
"Then this Zhuge Xintao?" Han Mao asked.
Zheng Sheng looked at Rui Cheng, "It doesn't matter. He's gone crazy anyway. ”
Rui Cheng nodded, "Then let him fend for himself?" ”
"The old man looks at that man quite pitifully, let him live in the general, right?" Han Mao said.
Zheng Sheng nodded, put away the paper, and turned to leave.
"Zheng Shizi." Behind him, Han Mao stopped him, Zheng Sheng turned around, only to see Han Mao say with a little hesitation: "Iron Mask rarely shows up, but he must be a good person, he should just be seriously ill and can't see people." ”
At the top of Qingliu Peak, two people are stopping to look north. One person, a young woman. It's just that she has long hair that is slightly curled, and she has not combed her hairpin, which is not in line with the customs and looks very strange.
She walked over to the other person and said, "You... I miss her so much, why don't you go... See her? She also stammered and was not fluent.
The other man looked to the north, with a dark black mask on his face, and when he heard her words, he whispered, "I can't go to see her, after all, I'm not what I used to be." It's enough to know that she's good, and then to be able to stand not far from her and watch her often. ”
"Let's go, Karnu."
