Wang Fugui sorted out the detailed information about the "driving pile" and sent it back to Changling.

"It's a loss of conscience!" Yin Shenglin said.

"Driving piles is a kind of secret construction technique in the ancient Central Plains Continent, and the process is terrifying and evil! It is the burial of people, especially children, alive in the construction site before the construction project begins, with the aim of ensuring the smooth running of the project. This phenomenon is found in large numbers in Neolithic and Shang Dynasty sites. Legend has it that Lu Ban also expounded the theory of driving piles, he believed that when people break ground in a place, it will destroy the feng shui of the place, and it will also anger the ghosts and gods there, so that accidents often occur during the construction period, and the living people are buried on the construction site, which is equivalent to the sacrifice of ghosts and gods, similar to the custom of using living people to sacrifice to river gods and mountain gods, hoping to reduce the accidents that occur in the building. The raw piles that were buried alive became the patron saint of the building, maintaining the stability of the building. ”

According to legend, when the Qin Dynasty was building the Great Wall, there were rumors of "driving piles", that is, the officials of the Qin Dynasty buried the workers who built the Great Wall alive under the Great Wall to sacrifice. Legend has it that Fan Qiliang, the husband of Meng Jiangnu, was buried alive under the Great Wall for sacrifice, so Chen Lin, a great genius in the late Han Dynasty, wrote in "Drinking Horses and Caves on the Great Wall": Jun Du does not see under the Great Wall, and the bones of the dead support each other.

Yin Shenglin was very angry: "This kind of death, it's good not to turn into a ghost and bite these turtle grandchildren, and the guardian god?" This kind of thing has happened in our Dou Kingdom before, but now the law has expressly prohibited it, and the people of Xiliang are too ignorant of what to do, so they will prepare an army of 50,000 first, and I will go and burn their new palace. ”

"Don't worry." Liu Dehao said: "The key to the problem lies in the mysterious gang of Eternal Silence Liangcheng, we might as well wait for Wang Fugui to find out." Li Runrin has already arrived in Lingcheng, and they are about to go to Xiliang. ”

……

Ju country.

"Young master, the Tai Hospital has developed a home remedy that can save the country."

Shao Shu said, "It's great that my father is saved."

"Young master, there is a medicine in this home remedy that is not owned by Ju country."

"What are you talking about, and where can you get it?"

"The name of this medicine is Silver Scale, which is the snake skin shed by the Xiliang White Sand Snake that grows in the Xiliang Desert. The desert environment is harsh, and this object is extremely difficult to find. The Imperial Doctor said.

Shao Xi immediately summoned all the courtiers to the court to discuss the matter.

"Young master, no, never! Although this Xiliang borders on the country of Ju, it can go from Judu to Liangcheng and then to the Xiliang Desert, the road is extremely long, in case the young master ...... The old minister is not worried about the safety of the young master, but this Ju country is so chaotic now, I don't know how many pairs of eyes are staring at you, the young master! "The old courtiers of the Ju Kingdom did not recommend Shao Wei to go to Xiliang, after all, it was too dangerous.

"If something really happens to me, and my brother Shao Jiang, my father has no shortage of heirs."

"But you are the only son raised by the Queen of Ju, and you are the only young master of the Ju Kingdom! It's okay to send someone for this kind of thing, so why do you have to go in person? ”

"My father's illness cannot be delayed, I don't feel at ease when I hand it over to others, I have to go by myself!" Shao Yu said: "Of course, I will easily pretend to travel, and come back when I get the silver scales."

"Okay, the old minister will arrange the young master's itinerary and send someone to Liangcheng in advance. Young master, you must take care! ”

At this time, the Black Kingdom was also discussing the matter of going to Liangcheng, and the one they sent was Jin Yitian, the son of King Ji.

"Shizi, be careful all the way, I have already arranged it in Liangcheng, it will take two days and nights to arrive, in the middle you will rest in a small inn on the side of the road, and after arriving in Liangcheng, you will go to a place called Ximen Inn, and our people will answer there."

……

Lingcheng.

"General Wang, Miss Xu, this trip to Liangcheng is dangerous, but you must be careful." Zhang Shaoyun said: "If you come to Lingcheng, I hope to forgive me for not taking good care of the place."

"It's too late for us to thank General Zhang. Although Liangcheng is far away, fortunately, someone has already gone to answer first, don't worry, we will definitely find out the heinous organization of Eternal Silence Liangcheng. Wang Fugui said, "Let's go."

Li Runlin received an urgent report from Changling and returned to Beijing overnight, so he did not accompany Wang Fugui to Liangcheng.

"You said that you have to let General Li toss this trip, it's not easy to come to Lingcheng, and you have to go back just now."

According to the report, Kong Geng, the main culprit of the rebellion who escaped, showed his traces. Presumably Li Runlin went for this, Kong Geng assisted Tong Wen in rebellion, and he was a key criminal in the imperial court, and the degree of insidious and cunning of this person was comparable to Tong Wen. Only sent General Wang Jixiang alone, and the thief king was afraid that he was not very at ease. ”

"yes!" Xu Yan said: "Seeing that the new emperor is about to ascend to the throne, we must clean up all the disasters. They deal with internal problems, and we solve external problems. ”

"By the way, General Zhang, which inn are we going to?"

"The message from my subordinates said that it was the West Gate Inn, near the West Gate of Liangcheng. Your horses are fast, and they will be there in two days. ”

"Send you a thousand miles, you must say goodbye in the end, General Zhang, there will be a period later."

"Goodbye, General Zhang."

"Have a nice trip."

……

The southern border of Ju country.

Shao Xi asked the general Qi Ying who was entourage, "General, where is this?"

"Back to the young master, we will leave the country of Ju immediately, we need to be more careful."

"I heard that the old palace of Xiliang Kingdom is too dilapidated and narrow, and the people of Xiliang are building their new palace, but is there such a thing?"

Qi Falcon said: "It was about half a year ago, a feng shui master of the Dou Kingdom came to Xiliang and said to his face that the feng shui of their palace was not good. Unexpectedly, only one day later, a large hall in the old palace suddenly collapsed, and it is said that a little prince was stoned to death, and Xiliang began to build a new palace. ”

"We have no diplomacy with Xiliang, but I know that the people of Xiliang are fierce and brave, but why can't they be strong on the Central Plains Continent?"

"The last general doesn't know. The last general only knew that it would take two days to go to the Ximen Inn in Xiliang, and we had to find a place to rest halfway. ”
