Chapter 124: The King's Good Gift (I)

Zhuge Liang let go of his worries, and he realized that Corning had laid out a lot of things on this road. Red Lotus's eyes were already burning with eagerness, and if Bishop Tiao's missionaries saw this, they would definitely feel a sense of intimacy.

But at this moment, a panicked figure came in, and the guards wanted to stop him, but he stopped the guards with a shout.

"Something is wrong!"

Honglian was thinking about the future development blueprint, when she was suddenly interrupted by this person, and couldn't help but look at it viciously.

When the man got closer, he noticed the vicious eyes of the red lotus, and the three souls who were frightened immediately soared up, and immediately stopped shouting loudly.

Kang Ning glanced at Honglian with some dissatisfaction, but thinking that he was becoming like this for the blueprint of the future, he also accepted his unnecessary anger and asked instead, "Whose subordinate are you, and why are you making such a fuss?" ”

The man raised his head and glanced at the Red Lotus in confirmation, and when he saw that she was no longer pretty, he replied hesitantly, "The younger one is a member of the Red Lotus Sect. Just now, several of the villain's subordinates reported that when they went out to practice, they found the body of a group training. ”

Corning's eyes lit up with rage. Zhuge Liang stood aside and asked, "How are you sure that person is a group practitioner?" ”

"The villain originally wanted to join the group training, but the old mother at home did not allow it, and this year's drought made life not easy, so he didn't dare to travel far. But I've always longed for it. So intentionally or unintentionally, I will deal with some people in the group training. That person was a team leader in the team training, and he often borrowed wine to drown his sorrows outside because his subordinates were disobedient. The little one also likes the contents of the cup, and we get to know each other after coming and going. It's just that I'm a little different from him, although the training method of our Red Lotus Sect is the same as group training, but the training intensity is lighter, after all, the time we formed is relatively short. So when I went out drinking. I like to bring my brothers with me. So the villain's subordinates are familiar with him, and sometimes when they see his corpse today, they are all surprised and inexplicable. ”

Kang Ning glanced at Zhuge Liang, who immediately realized what the other party was worried about. Is this dead group drill directly related to what happened yesterday?

But what is obvious is that from the mouth of this Red Lotus Sect officer. It's unlikely to know exactly what's going on. After all, he was only a small team, and although he had ten brothers under his command, he did not know the whole story of yesterday.

In addition, I suddenly received the news of the death of an acquaintance today, and it is inevitable that there will be some changes in my heart, even if I know something, it is difficult to explain.

"You go down first." Corning said to the petty officer.

But that petty officer was not a reincarnated person after all, and he was not extremely afraid of his orders, but in the hearts of their people, Kang Ning, the sect leader, was a living bodhisattva. Didn't he help those who nearly died because of the drought to get through it?

Thinking of this, the little officer slammed his head on the floor with a thud, and immediately the bright red blood appeared under the beating candlelight.

Corning was surprised and said, "Why are you doing this?" ”

Unexpectedly, the little officer sobbed, looking at his five big and three rough appearance, he didn't expect that he was a lover.

But it's no wonder, who made the name of this land under their feet called Shandong? In this land, there are more men with such temperaments.

It's a local specialty.

Corning walked over and helped him up. The man wiped a handful of snow from his forehead and begged Kangning, "Master." You must avenge Brother Yang, he is a good person. His men often ostracized him, and he was courteous to them. When he drank with us, he often instructed us in martial arts. It's really hard to find such a good person. ”

Kangning raised his hand and swore to the sky: "The way of heaven is proof." Evil doers will have evil consequences! I, Kang Ning, recently swore that I would follow the principles of heaven to find out the real culprit and avenge the deceased! ”

The little officer quickly knelt down. Said loudly: "Thank you, Sect Master!" ”

Corning helped him up again, and suddenly became interested in this affectionate little officer.

He asked, "What's your name?" ”

The petty officer straightened up again, and a muffled voice of reply followed.

"My name is Wang Qinian."

How could Corning, who is familiar with all kinds of online articles, not know this name, but he didn't expect the duplicate rate of this name to be so high.

After a brief moment of surprise, Corning patted him on the shoulder and said, "I wrote down your name." Go back, I'll tell you if there's any progress on this matter. ”

Wang Qinian nodded, turned around and left.

Kang Ning said to Zhuge Liang: "Go and ask, why is the team leader surnamed Yang at odds with his men?" ”

"Whoa."

The instructors were quickly invited. Hearing that one of the team members was dying mysteriously during the team drill, Corning thought that it was related to the fact that they didn't pay attention to the way they assigned the team.

The instructors were a little afraid of this view, and they noticed the problems of this method and method when they were within the Huanglin Group. There are many times when it is unclear, sometimes it is a little careless and leaves a loophole, and sometimes it is time to pay attention to the left side and not pay attention to the right.

When they entered Kang Ning's house, Kang Ning was standing in the courtyard, looking at the corpse carried by Wang Qinian's men.

He pointed to the corpse and questioned all the instructors.

"You're not a stranger to this person, are you?"

All the instructors did not look at the corpse, but stood to the side tremblingly.

Sensing that something was wrong, Corning angrily opened the white cloth wrapped in the corpse. Then he roared loudly: "I ask you, are you familiar with this person." Why don't you keep quiet? ”

From these instructors, he smelled a habit of bureaucrats in later generations. This is the so-called static braking option that often appears in the face of certain tests or mistakes.

He didn't expect that Huang Lin would make this habit to the end of the Ming Dynasty.

In addition to further suspicion of Huang Lin's identity, Kang Ning wanted to correct the habits of these instructors.

He continued to roar loudly.

"The biggest suspect in this man's murder is his men. As far as I know, he and his men have always been at odds. I wonder how you put a bunch of thorns in his hands. ”

At this time, an instructor finally stepped forward and glanced at the man who was lying down.

"Ahh It's him! How could it be him? Impossible! ”

Kangning didn't expect the instructor to scream, turned around and asked, "Why can't it be him?" ”

The instructor replied, "He is one of the most prestigious petty officers in our regimental training. He is usually bold and has outstanding martial arts. Even if one or two have a grudge, it can't be his opponent. ”

Corning snorted angrily, "Fool, will you always be wary of your men? ”

The instructor immediately stopped talking and said no more.

Another instructor came out and replied, "My lord." Maybe we did have a problem when we were in detachment. At that time, considering the prestige of this person, his kung fu was excellent. Therefore, after appointing him as the team leader, the subordinates assigned to him are all thorns that other team leaders can't manage. Judging from the aftermath, his management ability is still very outstanding. Those few thorns, there was nothing to do. ”

"Didn't make a fuss?" Kang Ning looked at the instructor with a sneer, and asked in an unkind tone, "What about the pre-kick out?" ”

"Ahh

The instructor was speechless in astonishment. What happened before the group drills started, the instructors knew very well.

A group of regimental training soldiers under the guise of fighting grievances for their instructors. Trouble in the barracks of the regimental training.

The man at the head of the instructors immediately came out and replied, "That matter really has nothing to do with us, my lord. We didn't show up because we were afraid that the group would ask us to compete with the new officers on the spot, causing even more confusion and misunderstanding. So we waited until the situation was under control before we came out and said that the soldiers went back to the barracks. ”

"No, it's not." Another instructor interrupted the man's answer.

"What's wrong?" Corning asked with the instructor leader.

"Among those who made trouble that day, there were no men of the deceased. But they're all a bunch of thorns. It's so lively, even if they don't know, they should go back and join in the fun. ”

The head of the instructor said, "What's so strange about that? It shows that the management is still in place. ”

"Fart!" Corning scolded behind the instructor leader. "Even if Song Ci wasn't here, I could tell if his death was fake last night. That is, when there was trouble this morning. He's dead. Well managed, let your shitty fart go. ”

The instructor leader was silent, listening to Corning scolding his mother loudly behind him.

Zhuge Liang interjected at this time: "In this way, the reason why those thorns did not appear is probably because they need to hide themselves. Whoever needs to hide himself, the thorn in front of him is definitely not wanted. He said. At the same time, he glanced at the instructor who was the last to speak, saw that he also nodded with him, smiled and continued, "Then it can only be explained that they hid it in order not to arouse suspicion." That's what people like to do. ”

Corning went on to speak, "Then the problem is. When did this group of thorns have the ability to be the masterminds behind the scenes? Also, does the death of their team have anything to do with this matter? ”

"Ahh The instructor who was the last to speak cried out in horror. There was a tremor in his voice, far from the surprised voice of his colleague before.

Zhuge Liang walked over with a sneer and said lightly: "If I'm not mistaken." We had a tent for each team. Ten people. It has to be checked every night, this is to strictly enforce military discipline, and it will only bring all kinds of chaos. ”

"That's right."

"Then, no matter how stupid the night checker is, he will notice that there is one more person in the tent, unless, before that, there is one less person."

Zhuge Liang said as he looked at the dead man lying on the ground.

At this moment, no one continued to speak, only Zhuge Liang's cold voice was still echoing in everyone's hearts.

"I remember that the lord once said that in that part of Sichuan, there was later a form of drama called Sichuan Opera. Among them, the most talked about is the unique skill of Sichuan Opera, changing faces. ”

"Ahh

At this moment, everyone understood what Zhuge Liang was talking about, and they also knew why the instructor just now became frightened.

"Easy to cover the top bag. This...... It's unlikely. ”

The instructor was still a little incredulous, but Corning had already written a note and stuffed it into the letter box on the pigeon's feet.

The flapping of wings followed, and the carrier pigeon could discern the direction even in the night sky, but when he found the moving group trainers, he didn't know when.

Before the regimental drills left Qingzhou Mansion, they stopped to rest because it was getting late, and it was already late at night, and most of the tents were already sleeping soldiers. The snoring came and went.

But there was a military tent filled with whispers.

"I wanted to stop them from sending troops. I didn't expect this group of new officers to be really powerful. And that Hu Luguang is also very cunning. This is a good thing, not only did it not stop them from sending troops, but it also allowed them to send troops ahead of schedule. ”

"Outside the king. So what are we going to do now? I remember you said that the biggest goal of this visit was to take Kangning's place and take charge of the trade between the White Lotus Sect and the Black Cloth Society. But now that we are engulfed in the army, how can we ......?"

"Hey, I'm worried about this too." The person who spoke first lamented, "I'm really sorry for delaying your brothers to make a fortune." ”

"Outside the staff, where are you talking about this?" Several people said that they did not care, "At present, we still have the opportunity to escape at night and return to Qing' Prefecture to regain the rights that should belong to you for the outside of the staff." If we continue to go further, even if we can escape from the barracks, there will not be enough supplies to support us to reach Qingzhou Mansion. After all, military rations are managed in a unified manner. ”

"yes, outside." Another said, "Make up your mind." ”

At this time, there was a sudden fluttering sound outside the tent, which frightened everyone and quickly shut up. Until a group of soldiers on the night patrol caught the pigeon, and then said loudly: "Go and tell the commander, there is a letter from the son." ”

The person who was called Wang Yuanwai was about to make up his mind to leave, but suddenly heard a message from Kang Ning, and couldn't help but wonder: "The army has already been launched, do you need to say anything?" ”

A person beside him said: "It won't be the sect members of Dengzhou Mansion and Laizhou Mansion, let's raise things in advance." ”

"Possibly."

While they were still speculating, a flock of torches surrounded their tent. Hu Luguang's thick beard appeared in front of everyone, and he smiled and said, "Yo, it's dark and I haven't slept." Just right, talk to me. ”

Everyone didn't know what had happened, but they were very uneasy, and they didn't know how to answer for a while. saw a person flash behind Hu Luguang, it was Song Ci who was smiling. (To be continued.) )
