Chapter 655: Phantom of the Border
Three glasses and two light wines, how can he be the enemy, and he will talk evil words.
Lin Bai said, "I want to hear the details", and Uncle Detian led the way. The two replaced the wine with tea, pushed the cup to change the lamp, and boiled three pots of tea before and after, before chatting in detail, but in the end, "The white tiger has long had objections." Evidence? Woman! ”
Originally, Lin Bai couldn't believe that the white tiger, who had always been frank, was also sad to pass the beauty pass, but after three pots of tea, he believed it. According to Uncle Tian Guo's intention and the clues provided, Lin Bai decided to strike first. I will go out of the customs to check the white tiger in a few days!
Uncle Tian Guo, the old fox, went out in person, but after tea, he took down the vengeful Lin Bai. His hand stretched out another inch into Jinyiwei's sphere of influence.
In order to avoid killing Feng and Cheng Li and others to stop him, Lin Bai's actions were not informed of the other leaders of Jinyiwei, and Uncle Tian Guo also really helped him, and asked Lin Bai to run on the grounds that there were traders in Shanhaiguan making trouble.
This matter was nothing, Uncle Tian Guo's position was far above Lin Bai, and he only proposed that it was Emperor Chongzhen who finally ordered Lin Bai to get out. However, because of the election of the main hall, now that there is this one again, Killing Feng's suspicion of Lin Bai has further deepened. He also wanted to see what kind of waves Lin Bai wanted to stir up at the border pass, so as to collect more reliable evidence. For this reason, Killing Wind did not interfere with Lin Bai's actions, and he had ordered earlier that other sects were not allowed to interfere in the internal affairs of Qinglongmen, so the other leaders had the right to perform official duties when Lin Bai went out of the customs.
The matter has been decided, and Lin Bai will soon usher in that day. One evening, Lin Bai and several guards left the capital at night and went to Shanhaiguan on horseback.
However, according to Uncle Tian Guo's arrangement, Lin Bai did not go directly to the Shanhaiguan guard White Tiger.
The new commander of the White Tiger Jinyi Guard, of course, is a happy event for the White Tiger Gate, and Shanhaiguan is far away from the court, so it is natural to celebrate.
Before Lin Bai arrived at Shanhaiguan, Baihu only returned to the customs one day before him, and returned to Beijing a few days ago to take up the post and arrange the affairs of the capital, and then Baihu returned to Shanhaiguan. For him, the biggest thing in the capital now is to investigate Qinglongmen! However, in order to avoid many inconveniences, although others left the capital, this control was still in their own hands. It's just that when I arrived at Shanhaiguan, under the support of all the soldiers, I couldn't help but feel a little arrogant, so I held a banquet for three days, delayed the duty, and finally led to the incident of Shanhaiguan traders making trouble. Fortunately, the situation was not serious, so Chongzhen endured it for the time being, ordered it to be rectified in time, and sent Lin Bai as the supervisor to supervise the matter.
The time when the white tiger got Lin Bai to arrive was three days later, so this night, Shanhaiguan was still immersed in a drunken dream. Because the so-called troublemakers have been arrested by the White Tiger. For Lin Bai, who lost Zhu Qing's protection, Baihu obviously didn't pay attention to it, even if he came as a supervisor, Baihu only needed to send the troublemaker, and Lin Bai could return to Beijing to resume his life, what could he do?
Lin Bai didn't give the white tiger a surprise attack. He felt that if he went to talk to Baihu about this matter now, he could only get Baihu to do business, and he didn't get any handle from Baihu, but he wasted a rare opportunity in vain, and let Baihu take precautions. All he had to do was to strike a fatal blow and catch the White Tiger off guard.
Therefore, when Lin Bai and his entourage arrived at Shanhaiguan in the early morning, they just looked at the scene of Baihumen's drunken dream and death in the camp tent from afar, and did not go to disturb it.
"General, look at the way they villains are proud! Obviously, we don't take our Qinglongmen in our eyes, General Qinglong has just been demoted, and the white tiger doesn't think about brotherhood to help each other, and he also took advantage of the weakness to enter, and took the command of the Jinyi Guard, and now he is holding a banquet to celebrate, which is simply lawless! Several guards couldn't stand it, and were about to rush into the tent to confront the white tiger.
Unexpectedly, he was stopped by Lin Bai, "Stop!" Don't be reckless! Lin Bai drank lightly, and then sneered at the soldiers who were drinking in the tent, "Let him be proud for a few days, and then he will be asked to return it twice and go!" Out of the customs! ”
Lin Bai said, and led the guards to sneak out of Shanhaiguan secretly.
Why is it out of customs? Of course, this is Uncle Tian Guo's idea!
Because Uncle Tian Guo told Lin Bai that there was a woman in the Qing military camp outside the Guan, and she would meet with the White Tiger every once in a while, as long as Lin Bai could use this as evidence, the White Tiger's attempt to conspire with the Qing army would be self-defeating!
But the secret residence called Sakura Lane is ten miles away from Jinzhou, and if you want to go to Sakura Lane to investigate the woman, you must pass through Jinzhou, and Jinzhou is now garrisoned by Iron Mask, and if you want to pass Jinzhou, you must see Iron Mask.
Lin Bai is not worried about the iron mask, the iron mask is guaranteed by Zhu Qing, Zhu Qing is kind to him, of course he will stand on the side of the Qinglong Gate, not to mention that Lin Bai is acting in the name of investigating traitors this time, the iron mask is a righteous person, and it is absolutely unbearable to be in the company of traitors, so he will naturally help Lin Bai. At that time, even if Baihumen resists at Shanhaiguan, Iron Mask can also lead troops back to help Lin Bai.
Therefore, Lin Bai did not have too many doubts about Uncle Tian Guo's strategy, and after coming out of Shanhaiguan, he firmly believed that he would be able to bring down the White Tiger this time!
For this reason, Lin Bai and his entourage rushed to Jinzhou non-stop after leaving Shanhaiguan.
During this period, he passed by the wolf's den and went in to visit the life-saving benefactor Cao Huachun. Although he did not explain this trip to Cao Huachun, Lin Bai was still too tender for Cao Huachun, because of this, Cao Huachun did not prevent Lin Bai from going to Jinzhou. According to the words of the wolf king Cao Huachun, "Hey, young man, it's good to teach a little more lesson!" ”
After Lin Bai left the wolf's den, Cao Huachun stroked the White Wolf King and shook his head and said, "This kid is not bad in nature, but he doesn't have the green dragon by his side, I'm afraid this time the fall will not be light, you still have to run......"
After the wolf king Cao Huachun sighed, the white wolf king went down the mountain......
Lin Bai and his entourage traveled day and night, rushed for a day and a night, and finally arrived in Jinzhou in the evening of the next day.
But to Lin Bai's surprise, Tie Mian was not in the house at this time!
Lin Bai asked the guards, and he was even more surprised to reply, "The general has gone to Sakura Lane to visit his friends!" ”
"It's Sakura Alley again!" Lin Bai thought silently in his heart, and after arranging for his guards to live in Jinzhou Mansion, he decided to go to Sakura Lane alone and secretly to see who the demon girl was who could subdue the two tiger generals of Jinyi and Wei so obediently.
Lin Bai left Jinzhou City and hurried to Cherry Blossom Lane ten miles away.
The so-called Sakura Lane is not an alley, but a valley. Speaking of which, this place is not a fairyland on earth.
In autumn, there is still smoke, birds singing and flowers, and flowing water...... Even though the passers are dressed modestly, they are never sloppy. It can be seen that this is indeed an elegant place.
After inquiry, Lin Bai learned that this cherry blossom lane just appeared, it was originally a farmhouse courtyard, and later because of the elegant environment, the merchants and visitors lingered here, so they opened up an alley, and then a woman came to the alley, not only the face was moving, but also played a good piano, settled here, made a living by playing the piano, and attracted an endless stream of merchants and surrounding soldiers, and because this woman loves cherry blossoms, the front and back of the house are planted with cherry blossoms, and add a different scenery to this place, and later someone proposed that this place should be renamed Sakura Lane. In order to prevent someone from taking the opportunity to make trouble, Tie Mian will personally visit Sakura Lane, and after coming and going, he became acquainted with the woman, and has been known as a friend so far......
"I want to see what the hell is sacred!" After Lin Bai heard this, he didn't believe it in his heart, so he left the horse in the alley post house and walked to the cherry blossom square alone.
The closer to the cherry blossom workshop, the more you can smell the fragrance of Chen Chen, and go up along the stream, cross a stone road, and actually hear the sound of the piano faintly, its lingering sound, fascinating. Lin Bai unconsciously quickened his pace and hurried eagerly to the end of the alley.
In front of a flower shop at the end of the alley, it is really full of cherry blossoms, in front of the house and behind the house, the flowers and trees are shady, and there are more night birds returning to the nest, inhabiting the courtyard.
"Dong ......" in the workshop a touch of the piano, sultry people's hearts, Lin Bai followed the prestige, the courtyard was already full of guests, all of them were listeners, from the back room to the outside of the courtyard, although at dusk, they did not want to return.
Seeing that everyone was so supportive, and was attracted by the sound of the piano in the workshop, Lin Bai couldn't help but squeeze in. When the crowd is gone, it quiets down. If it was in the past, in those rouge and vulgar places, Lin Bai would definitely not be so respectful, just shout, and others would give way.
But to put it quickly, since Lin Bai entered this courtyard, he did not have the urge to put on a shelf, but became polite like all the guests.
Lin Bai stood still, there must be a VIP seat in front of him, there were several people who had seats to sit, and the rest were all standing in a row from the inside to the outside according to the order of visiting, and the people who sat down seemed to be either rich or expensive, but they were not noisy, and the people who were standing, even if they were farmers Bai Ding, were not rude at all. It seems that they are worried that they will be despised by the woman on the stage.
The sound of the piano is fascinating, like a dream, looking for a soulmate. It's just that the woman stroked the piano all the time, and didn't look up at the crowd in the audience, until the song was played and everyone applauded, the woman slowly raised her head, pursed her lips and smiled, to thank the bosom friend.
Just between the gestures and smiles, Lin Bai, who has always laughed and talked about beautiful women, was stunned! Even when everyone dispersed one after another, he moved half a step, and his eyes followed the woman's posture, which caused many guests to hide their noses and laugh when they saw it, but no one said anything.
Just as the people outside were about to leave, the people in the VIP seats in the front row also stood up one after another, saluting respectfully and appreciating the woman who stroked the qin.
One of them is the iron mask, "The girl has a wonderful hand, and I am really fortunate to ......have three lives."
"The general is overrated, but practice makes perfect, and he has a soft spot......" The woman walked in front of the iron mask, bent down and saluted, and the moment she got up, she saw Lin Bai in a daze in the crowd! His face was also shocked.
Seeing this, Tie Mian hurriedly asked, "What's wrong with the girl?" ”
The woman motioned to Tie Mian, "The son in the back, but he's here to find the general?" Although Lin Bai was not wearing a military uniform, he was holding a sword in his hand, and at first glance he was a person who practiced martial arts.
When Tie Mian heard this, he couldn't help but turn around and look, and was suddenly surprised, "Lin Bai!?" When did you arrive? Obviously, the news that Lin Bai was coming to Jinzhou was also known to Tie Mian, but he didn't expect him to come back so quickly.
“…… Oh...... I ...... I just arrived, and I heard from the government that you are here, so I came over to take a look......" Lin Bai was stunned for a moment before reacting.
Tie Mian couldn't help but smile when he saw Lin Bai's appearance, sure enough, he was still the same, straight to the point, even if he saw a beautiful woman, he immediately showed it on his face.
"Come, let me introduce you to you, this is the cherry blossom girl from the cherry blossom workshop. I guess you've listened to the tune too, so you don't need me to say more, right? After Tie Mian introduced Sakura, he turned to introduce Lin Bai to Sakura, "He is my brother, Lin Bai, the general of the Qinglongmen." ”
"I've seen General Lin." After hearing this, Sakura hurriedly saluted.
This smile made Lin Bai stunned for a while, and it wasn't until Tie Mian reminded him that Lin Bai remembered to return the salute, and hurriedly bowed, "Lin Bai has seen the cherry blossom girl......
"Hee-hee-......" Looking at Lin Bai's stupid appearance, Sakura couldn't help but smile, and this smile blossomed in Lin Bai's heart.
However, Lin Bai didn't realize that this flower was poisonous!
