Lu Yu pulled out the broken army sword like lightning, and combined with the short sword in his left hand, he used the snake sword.

When arming himself in the camp, Lu Yu thought of the Zimu Sword, which he had seen in movies before, and it always had an unexpected effect in some cases.

And the most suitable for use is the snake sword among the seven swords of the Yin Fu.

Compared to Long Wuzhi's sword move, Lu Yu's snake sword was even more domineering and ferocious, not to mention, he used two swords to use this sword move. But seeing that the white mangs of the double swords in his hands skyrocketed, the speed was so fast that it was dazzling, and when it was connected with the sword in Long Wuzhi's hand, the dinging sound was endless, which made the Mu brothers feel at a loss, and it was difficult to intervene for a while.

The two of them were shocked, secretly thinking that Lu Yu had really shown mercy to the sword in front of the emperor that day, just looking at his current offensive against Long Wuzhi, even if there were no two of them pestering Long Wuzhi to fight hundreds of swords, Lu Yu alone would be enough to kill him.

And this is also Lu Yu's carefulness, after all, he has never seen this dragon wuzhi's skills before, let alone fought with him, and he doesn't know his strength, so he has to let the two Mu Shi consume a wave of his physical strength, and he will wait for the opportunity to enter from the side.

What's more, he also had to use this matter to test whether the Mu brothers were sincere to him.

Long Wuzhi was shocked, and tried his best to block Lu Yu's dozens of swords, but he heard the "hissing" sound constantly, and the clothes on his body had been torn in several places, and he didn't know the depth of several places, but he couldn't control the blood that flowed out.

When he was secretly thinking about the horror of this person's swordsmanship, he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his right wrist, and it turned out to be Lu Yu's left short sword slashed. The long sword in Long Wuzhi's hand could no longer be clenched, and he suddenly came out of his hand. shouted "My life is over", and there was a heart-rending pain in his chest again.

The Broken Sword has pierced into Long Wuzhi's heart.

At this time, Long Wuzhi saw clearly the sword that belonged to Lu Yu's identity representative, and when he looked at him with wide eyes, the rope in Mu Chuan's hand quickly tied his hands to the trunk, and Mu He even covered Long Wuzhi's mouth and nose hard, until the two of them also kept panting, only to find that Long Wuzhi had been out of breath for a long time.

Mu He carefully confirmed it again before saying to Lu Yu: "General, he has lost his breath." He also said, "The general's sword move just now is not so terrifying, my brothers and I can't leave him with hundreds of swords, and the general will kill him before he has twenty swords." ”

Lu Yu knew that he had taken a big advantage, if it weren't for the fact that the two of them and Long Wuzhi had spent so long, he would not have been able to fight back, and he would definitely not be able to solve him with only a dozen swords. At this time, he realized that the broken army sword was still inserted in Long Wuzhi's chest, and stepped forward to pull it out, but saw that the blood on the sword quickly flowed from the tip of the sword to the ground, and after a while, there was no trace of blood on the sword.

Before he could speak, he saw that the eyes of the two Mu clans had widened, and they praised this sword one after another.

Lu Yu scolded with a smile: "Hurry up and find out if there are any tokens on him." ”

Mu Chuan and Mu He searched Long Wuzhi's body and found a silk book and some silver taels. Lu Yu took the silk book and looked at it, thinking that this must be handed over to Master Fan of Pingqiu, so he took it into his arms and said to the two of Mu's family: "The day is about to dawn, we will immediately set up this place as the scene of robbery and murder and then return to the camp, pay attention to the injuries on your body after you go back, so as not to let people find out." ”

The so-called silk book is a kind of silk silk as the carrier of writing, because there is no paper in this era, so the materials used to record are mostly bamboo and wood books, animal skins, oracle bones and silk books.

Of course, the more important text should be cast on the tripod, which can only be done by the monarch.

During the Warring States period, the written language was not unified, and each country still had the writing habits of each country. According to records and archaeological research, the Warring States script can be divided into two major systems: the "Six Kingdoms Script" and the "Qin State Script". The Six Kingdoms script refers to the scripts of small states such as Han, Zhao, Wei, Qi, Chu, Yan and Wei, and Zhongshan. Although the Zhou Dynasty already had Jin script as the official script, the strokes of the characters among the six kingdoms were simplified at will, and the shape and structure were very chaotic. The script used by the Qin people was closer to the Jin script of the Zhou Dynasty, which was called the seal in later generations.

The writing of this era is a headache for Lu Yu.

The three of them designed Long Wuzhi's death as a scene of murder for money, in this era when there were no surveillance cameras, and it was a wilderness, and there was no proof of death, which just helped Lu Yu solve the tricky trouble afterwards.

After sneaking back to the camp, it was already dawn. Lu Yu hurriedly changed out of the samurai suit on his body, and was about to lie down and squint his eyes for a while when he suddenly heard someone calling his name in his ear.

It wasn't until Lu Yu woke up that someone was calling him that he sat up suddenly, but he saw Wei Cong standing in front of him. Secretly thinking about his carelessness, I just closed my eyes and I don't know how long I have been asleep?

"What time is it?" Lu Yu yawned and asked lazily.

Wei Cong looked confused, and asked inexplicably: "What time is it?" The general refers to ......"

Lu Yu hurriedly changed his words and asked, "What time is it?" ”

Wei Cong replied: "It's been a moment, and I've been waiting for the general for a long time, and when I saw that the general couldn't afford it, I took the liberty to break into the camp tent and ask the general to surrender." ”

Lu Yu waved his hand and asked, "Isn't it time to go?" ”

Wei Cong nodded and said, "Yes, even the princess is waiting for the general, and she wants to ask the general for instructions......

Lu Yu was startled, he didn't expect Wei Mingji to get up so early, so he was busy letting Wei Cong go out and order the team to leave immediately.

But what happened next made Lu Yu break out in a cold sweat again. Because when he saw the samurai uniform he had changed, he threw it on the ground casually, and he hadn't even dealt with it!

Suddenly, there were thousands of grass and mud horses galloping in Lu Yu's mind! He slept for at least an hour, and it was impossible for Wei Cong to enter the camp tent when he just woke up, that is to say, at least he couldn't be honest enough to look at Lu Yu from the moment he entered his camp tent without finding such a conspicuous samurai uniform on the ground! It's still a bloodstained samurai suit!

But since Lu Yu woke up, Wei Cong never squinted, nor did he express doubts in front of the samurai uniform on the ground, it seems that this person is not just a simple samurai leader. Lu Yu put on his armor in the numbness of his scalp, thinking that he might have to kill another person.

As he expected, as the team passed through the dense forest, the spies found the scene that had been processed and the body of Long Wuzhi.

Accompanied by Wei Cong, Lu Yu got off the horse and stepped forward to inspect the "scene".

This glance was startled, because what he saw was even more embarrassing than the scene arranged with the Mu brothers, the clothes on Long Wuzhi's corpse were already in tatters, and the corpse was even more miserable, and there was hardly a single intact part of his body, as if he had been attacked by a wild beast.

Wei Congyu reported: "The waist tag and clothing have confirmed that it is indeed Mr. Long, and the traces of the fight at the scene seem to be at least three people, including Mr. Long." Mr. Long's valuable things are gone, so the initial guess is that the bandits should be here to make money and kill him, and after the bandits left, two more wild wolves attacked Mr. Long's body. ”

Lu Yu secretly exclaimed that Wei Cong's observation power was very powerful, and the traces of the fight had been rearranged, and he still showed the number of people.

I only heard Wei Cong say again: "Mr. Long's skills are rarely seen, but the people who can get a seat in the Xinling Monarch's Mansion are often not simple, and I believe that they are at least comparable to that Ximen Hou." ”

Lu Yu took over and said, "It can be seen that the skills of those bandits are not simple. ”

Wei Cong nodded in agreement: "It's really not simple, I guessed that Mr. Long should have been hit by a sword in the chest, but later he was bitten by a wolf and damaged the wound." And the sword, though deadly, looked like it was suffocating, or rather suffocating to hasten his death. ”

Lu Yu broke out in a cold sweat, and asked calmly on the surface: "How can you see it?" ”

Wei Cong said again: "If the sword in the chest is directly fatal, then the corpse's face will not be so swollen, and if it is a wolf attack and death, it will not be like this." The most probable cause of Mr. Long's death due to suffocation was his swollen face, which was dark purple in color. He sighed and said, "There are still many phenomena, but the face has been bitten by a wolf, and the weather is cold, and the corpse has not appeared corpse spots, so I judge that Mr. Long's death will not exceed four hours." ”

Lu Yu's little heart thumped when he heard this, and he felt that this Wei Cong was simply a forensic doctor on the spot, remembering that when he and the Mu brothers arranged this "scene" together, the sky was not very good, so although it looked like a robbery scene in the eyes of ordinary people, and then accidentally suffered from a wolf's bite, this Wei Cong could still see so much from it, it seems that this person cannot be underestimated. If he connected his bloodstained samurai suit, it would not be difficult to surmise that this matter had something to do with him, but now that he didn't make any moves, could this person have other plans?

Immediately, he sighed: "Mr. Long has already reported to me yesterday that he will go to Pingqiu first, but I didn't expect to suffer such a catastrophe as soon as I left. ”

Wei Cong approached Lu Yu and whispered, "I have a proposal for the lowly position, I don't know if I can say it." Seeing that Lu Yu nodded, he said: "Since there are not many of us, the humble position proposes to cremate Mr. Long first, take him to Pingqiu, and then ask someone to send him back to Xinling Jun's Mansion." ”

Lu Yu glanced at him and nodded, "That's the only way." ”

At this time, Wei Mingji also sent a maidservant to inquire. Lu Yu arrived in front of her carriage and told her "truthfully" about the matter.

Wei Mingji frowned and asked, "This dragon affairs came out on the first day to run errands, and there was an accident, I believe that Xin Lingjun will definitely lose his temper when he knows about it, and send someone to investigate." ”

Lu Yu secretly believed that Lingjun knew that this matter should be a few days later, and by then Long Wuzhi had turned into a pile of ashes, so let him check it out.

On the surface, he pretended to sigh and said: "How to say that this matter has something to do with the villain, I originally wanted to send two people to accompany him, but Long Wuzhi insisted on going to Pingqiu alone, if it weren't for the villain's heavy responsibility to protect the princess, this matter must be investigated by the villain, and it would be a fair thing." ”

Wei Mingji said: "The general doesn't have to worry, this princess can testify that this matter has nothing to do with the general, and it is inherently dangerous in the barren mountains and mountains." ”

Lu Yu nodded and said, "I heard the samurai talk about this area just now, but the princess, please rest assured, the villain will definitely ensure the safety of the princess." ”

Wei Mingji glanced at him sideways and scolded him softly: "I didn't see you take action last night?" ”

Lu Yu smiled awkwardly, and pretended to be sincere: "For now, I ask the princess to forgive me, and I will condemn the villain after I get to Pingqiu." ”

After a few more perfunctory words to her, he found Wei Cong again and said to him: "Since there are wolves and bandits in this area, it is inconvenient for us to stay for a long time, so we must protect the princess on the road as soon as possible." ”

Long Wuzhi's matter was delayed for more than an hour before the team was back on the road.

According to Wei Cong's report, the team will need to "camp" in the wild for one more night, and will not be able to reach Pingqiu until noon tomorrow. Lu Yu couldn't help but sigh that after 2,000 years, from one city to another, only a private car and a long-distance bus can be quickly reached, and no matter how far away it is, it is nothing more than trains, bullet trains and planes. Before these means of transportation, people could only rely on horses as the fastest means of transportation, and not the average person had this treatment.

And you also have to learn how to ride a horse.

A heavyweight figure like Princess Wei Guo, who either takes a private jet when he goes out, or doesn't even have to go out, can directly send an email on the Internet to complete things, but in this era, he needs to be escorted by a large team, which is a waste of manpower and time.

Just what I have experienced can already be written into a thick book that can be studied by a group of experts for a long time.

I secretly laughed that I didn't know how to enjoy it, after all, this kind of "treatment" through time and space is really not something you want.

Unconsciously, it was close to dusk, and after setting up the camp, Lu Yu found Muhe.

Mu He's face was excited, thinking that there was a new task, but he saw Lu Yushen mysteriously take out an object from his arms, and when he saw that it was the silk book that he took from Long Wuzhi's body last night, he asked, "Why didn't the general destroy this book?" ”

Lu Yu smiled and asked, "Are you literate?" ”

Seeing that he was confused, Lu Yu smiled embarrassedly again: "The characters of General Ben's hometown are too different from the characters of Wei State, so I asked you to see if you could distinguish them." ”

Mu He nodded and said: "The words are naturally recognized, but this book is a confidential thing at a glance, and the general actually looks at it with the villain, this..."

Lu Yu interrupted him and said, "Since they are already their own people, then I believe you, what's so strange about this." ”

After speaking, he was about to open the silk book, but when he saw that the silk book was folded into a rectangular shape and sealed with fire paint at the junction, he couldn't help frowning, because if he wanted to open the silk book, he would destroy this fire paint. This fire paint is irregular in shape, as if sealed with wax, and it is stamped with a seal, and after careful study, it is seen that it is the word "Wuji". Xinlingjun's name is Wei Wuji, and it seems that this silk book is indeed entrusted by Xinlingjun to Longwu.

When Mu He saw him studying the silk book, he asked, "Since the general has obtained this silk book, why doesn't he open it to know its contents?" ”

Lu Yu sighed, and was about to use a knife to cut through the fire paint, but was stopped by Mu He: "Actually, you don't need to use a knife, the villain has a special potion on his body, and he can break it directly." Lu Yu thought that he couldn't read it anyway, so he directly handed over the silk book to Mu He. I saw that after he took the silk book, he looked at the fire paint for a while, held it to his nose and smelled it for a while, and then took out a small bottle from his arms, pulled out the cap, poured some transparent liquid from it on a small handkerchief-like cloth, and covered the fire paint with the cloth.

Lu Yu smelled a faint smell of alcohol, and thought to himself that this should be alcohol.

The silk book was finally opened.

Mu He looked at it for a while, and suddenly his face changed greatly and he frowned.

Lu Yu asked, "What is written on it?" ”

Mu He took a deep breath and read: "Today, Lu Yu was ordered by the king to escort the princess to Handan to visit Mrs. Pingyuan. ”

After reading it, he muttered to himself again.

Lu Yu knew that this Xinling Jun would definitely not send just one Long Wuzhi to spy on him, and now he learned about another guy named Fan Xin, but he didn't know who it was? Immediately, he asked Mu He: "Among the warriors or guards, is there a person named Fan Xin?" ”

Mu He shook his head and said, "Just now, the villain was thinking about the warriors in the team, and there was no one named Fan Xin. But I don't know if any of the guards have that name. ”

Lu Yu frowned, thinking that he might have to ask Wei Cong about this matter to find out. I suddenly thought of Master Fan in Long Wuzhi's mouth, is it called Fan Xin?

Suddenly, he had a plan, and sighed again.

Mu Hedao: "The general doesn't have to worry, my two brothers will definitely help the general find out Fan Xin." ”

Lu Yu sighed: "Now I am not looking for this Fan Xin, but I just wanted to restore the fire paint on this silk book, but unfortunately I was too anxious just now, and I directly dissolved the seal." ”

Mu He said: "This matter may not be difficult, the villain just looked carefully at the seal, the fire paint should be made of rosin mixed with cinnabar and another spice, it smells a little pungent, like the sap of a tree." Although it is a secret method, the villain has the confidence to make an identical one. ”

Lu Yu was overjoyed when he heard this, and he had also studied seal carving, but the real fire paint was the first time he had seen it, and if he wanted to forge it, he also needed certain materials, but he didn't expect Mu He to do it. He immediately asked, "Do you know how to make this kind of fire paint?" ”

Mu He nodded and said: "It's better for the villain to find the eldest brother and let him make the fire paint, and the villain has seen the seal, so he is responsible for copying the word Wuji." ”

I have to admire the ability of the two Mu family to never forget, and they are good at this kind of "spy" handiwork, which shows that these two people are not as simple as Lu Yu felt before. First of all, the assassination techniques that the two of them learned, their understanding of the terrain, and their ability to forge this kind of secretly made fire paint and seals prove that the beauties of the samurai sent by Yan Guo in the previous round must have ulterior motives. It's a pity that Wei State can't be defenseless, as the two of them said, who will give away the real warrior expert to others?

It's a pity that the sword competition in front of the emperor, the warriors of the Yan State were defeated in front of the Wei State, and they could not be reused, so they could only be given to some nobles as bodyguards. And those swallow girls were rewarded casually.

It's just that Wei Mingji's trip to Handan this time must have a task, why did the Mu brothers get this kind of escort opportunity?

Mu Chuan asked puzzledly: "Since the general already knows the contents of the book, and it is not good for the general, why don't you destroy it, but reseal it?" ”

Lu Yu said: "I just don't know anything, the misfortune of Long Wuzhi was solved by the 'bandits', and I personally handed over this silk book 'intact', wouldn't it be more proof of my innocence?" ”

Mu Chuan asked again: "If you find Fan Xin mentioned in it, will you also remove it?" ”

Lu Yu said with a smile: "I'll talk about this later, maybe that person doesn't need to be killed, maybe he can still make good use of it, let me make good use of it." ”

At this time, the fire paint on the silk book has been resealed, Lu Yu took it and took a look, although he did not have the ability to forget, but because he had long wanted to forge this fire paint seal, so Lu Yu had also carefully studied it before opening it, and by the appearance in his memory, what he made with the Mu brothers was almost the same as before, and he couldn't help but secretly admire these two brothers in his heart.

The two were about to leave, when Lu Yu remembered something and asked, "What is your impression of that Wei Cong?" ”

Mu Hedao: "This person is said to be a patriot, working for Longyang Jun, being an upright person, and having some prestige among the warriors and guards. ”

Mu Chuan said: "I think Wei Cong is a bit old-fashioned, he looks like a creditor, and I have never seen him smile." ”

Lu Yu laughed out loud and said to the two, "It's okay, you guys go down." ”

That Wei Cong really kept a straight face, like everyone owed him money. This kind of person must be two extremes with Ximen Hou, completely opposite. Ximen Hou can pinch out a sycophant at will, while Wei Cong can shut up until he is old after saying what he should say. It turned out that he was actually Longyangjun's person, and it was arranged by King Wei, which means that Xinlingjun should have known that he had sent a dragon to come later, presumably in addition to monitoring Lu Yu, he should also play a role in counterbalancing Longyangjun.

Now, perhaps, it is just for the mysterious Fan Singh to appear.
