Chapter 110: Snowy Divine Tomb
Most people often use kind, cute, and approachable words to describe Liu Jinlong, as the son of the thief king Liu Mo, he did not inherit the slightest bit of his father's domineering spirit. He was frail and sickly since he was a child, skinny and skinny, and almost died of illness when he was a child.
Liu Jianlong has been diligent and studious since he was a child, modest and courteous, and is most loved by the former emperor Yin Shenglin and the king of thieves. It's a pity that Liu Jinlong was less than ten years old, and the first emperor died due to state labor. After the new monarch ascended the throne, Dou Guo successively and Ju State, Xiliang and relatives, married to Ju State is Liu Jinlong's aunt, the old thief king Liu Dehao and Wu Nian's biological daughter, Wuge County Lord, and married to Yin's is the princess of Xiliang Kingdom, the youngest daughter of the old country lord Huang Linzheng, that is, the current Huang Guifei.
The other foreign nations are easy to say, only the black country is unwilling to establish diplomacy with the Dou country, and the big war of the black country and the Dou country has started again. Dou first joined forces with Xiliang to destroy Bei Chen, a vassal state of the Black State, and the two countries worked together to flank the Black State.
At this time, the political situation in the black country also underwent subtle changes. Jin Yitian, the weak and incompetent prince of the Black Kingdom, actually seized power and became the king of the Black Kingdom. After Jin Yitian ascended to power, he implemented commercial reform and military reform, which greatly increased the national strength of the black country, and the combat effectiveness of the black army was also greatly enhanced.
Emperor Yin Tingchang was suspicious by nature and did not want Liu Mo to stay in the court to interfere in political affairs, so he sent him to lead the imperial thief army to fight against the black country in the south.
The war has been fought intermittently for decades, and the prince of the year has become an old prince, and the emperor of the year is no longer young and vigorous. Liu Jianlong has grown up.
Being too kind and humble is not necessarily a good thing, everyone is afraid that he is the son of a thief, so naturally they will not bully him. But the animals don't reason with him, from donkeys, horses, mules, to cats, dogs and mice, Liu Jinlong is very popular in their eyes.
Therefore, there are always a lot of entourages around Liu Jinlong. At the age of seventeen, Liu Mo chose his son Liu Baohu as the son of the palace and inherited the family business, and Liu Zhenlong was arranged to go to the Beiling Mansion.
……
"This Beiling is the fief of the old prince Yue, the terrain is undulating, the north and south are long and narrow, and this north is simply icy and snowy." Zhao Yi, the prefect of Beiling, took Liu Jianlong and Zhang Zhanying through the winter snowfield and went to Fenghong. The case of Lian's extermination in Fenghong County was unsolved, and the imperial court was urging him tightly, so Zhao Yi had to go to Fenghong County in person despite the wind and snow.
Zhao Yi, Zhang Zhanying, and Liu Jianlong were in Beiling in the same year, and although the three of them had different official positions, they were all called brothers in private.
"Legend has it that wolves infested this snowy plain, and many traversers died here." Liu Zhenlong was followed by a black dog named "Black Bean", and the horses were already frozen, and their speed slowed down significantly. The black beans are jumping around, and when they arrive in the snowfield, they feel like they have found a home. The black beans were picked up by Liu Jinlong near Jingfeng County on the border of Dou and Heiguo, and he has been following him for three or four years.
Zhang Zhanying is the nephew of the old general Zhang Shaoyun, the son of Zhang Binglan, the head of the forbidden army, and has known Liu Jinlong since he was a child, and the two came to Beiling together. Zhang Zhanying is strong in martial arts, but simple-minded, and is mainly responsible for protecting the safety of the prefect and others. Zhang Zhanying said: "I have been here, and the way of life of people in several counties north of Beiling is nothing more than growing grain in summer and hunting in winter. They usually come to the snow to hunt rabbits, and wolves are often seen here, but as long as people are in groups and armed with weapons, wolves do not dare to approach. ”
"There hasn't been snow in Beiling in the past two months, but the snow on this snowfield hasn't melted at all."
"Descend the dragon." Zhao Yi asked: "After handling this case, you should also go back to Changling to have a look."
"Since my father arranged for me to come to Beiling for training, there must be a reason for him." Liu Jinlong said: "Besides, my father is fighting in the south, who will I go to see when I go back to Changling?"
"You don't understand this, your father seems to have asked you to come to Beiling to exercise, but in fact, he wants you to really master the ability to accept the imperial thief, and the war is a war, and you have to get the money from the imperial thief, right?"
"I don't have that much ability." Liu Jinlong said: "I have a headache in handling cases."
Fenghong County is located at the foot of the Snow Mountain, the Honghe River is from here, Fenghong Sword is quite famous, of course, Fenghong's agricultural business level is not bad. A month ago, the Lian family, a big family in Fenghong County, was wiped out, and the county couldn't handle the matter, so it was reported to the state. However, Liu Jinlong and others did not know the specific circumstances of the case.
Zhang Zhanying threw the wine jug to Liu Jianlong, and Liu Zhenlong took a sip to dispel a bit of the chill.
"Hey, you two white-eyed wolves eat alone again, and you don't share good wine with your big brother!" Zhao Yi said.
"You've become the prefect, do you still care about this sip of wine?" Liu Jinlong threw the wine jug to Zhao Yi. A group of soldiers who followed behind him watched the three commanders drink, and they couldn't get hungry.
"Over the mountain in front, there are more than a dozen mountains to arrive! Hold on, everyone! ”
Liu Zhenlong thought to himself: You might as well not say this.
Zhao Yi took out the cooked food in the paper package and handed it to Liu Jinlong and Zhang Zhanying: "The meat is okay, it's still hot."
Liu Jinlong took it, but he didn't have much appetite, so he gave the meat to the black beans to eat. The soldiers had to sigh that people are really not as good as dogs.
Two roads appeared in front of him, and Zhang Zhanying asked a local soldier: "You are from Beiling, you should have come here to hunt, right?" Do you know the way? ”
The soldier nodded: "Soldier head, the small one recognizes, recognizes." The road on the left is a flat road around the cliff, and it goes around this mountain, although it is gentle but the road is long. The road on the right is the way up the mountain, which has many cliffs and is more dangerous. If it's summer, it's fine, but now it's the depths of winter, and it's safer to walk on the road above than below. ”
"Then we'll take a few more detours and go to a safe place." After Zhao Yi finished speaking, he led his horse and walked forward.
The wind suddenly became stronger, rolling up a few pinches of snow, and Zhao Yi had to cover his face. Liu Jinlong suddenly shouted at him: "Brother Zhao!"
Zhao Yi replied, "What's wrong?"
"Don't ...... Don't look back, don't look back. ”
"Huh?" Zhao Yi felt a chill behind him, and he glanced at it with his gaze, and the wolves were staring at him behind him.
Leading the way is a silver-white wolf king.
The black beans barked at the wolves, Liu Jinlong stared at the wolf king, the wolves didn't seem to have the intention of attacking, but Zhao Yi was so frightened that he didn't dare to move.
"Archers prepare." Zhang Zhanying lowered his voice and said to the people behind him, looking back, the soldiers had already drawn their knives and prepared.
"Soldier head, get on!"
"Wait!" Zhang Zhanying asked everyone not to move, after all, the opponent is a beast. The commander did not give the order, and the soldiers did not dare to move, and the two sides confronted each other like this.
