Chapter 34: The Savior
Shen Zhiming became more and more jealous of the upstart. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
He has served in Leizhou for no more than six years, and he knows very well what kind of people are from this poor mountain and bad water in Leizhou, they are like uneducated savages, the law is completely ignored, no matter what identity you have, how much power you have, any contradiction will eventually resort to force.
He was originally waiting for that "Lord Jiang" to be severely frustrated, and sure enough, he immediately heard the news that some mountain people had gathered to make trouble at the Prefecture Pastoral Yamen. He waited with great interest for the misery to come back from his eyeliner, but unexpectedly, the kid was fooled in a few words, and he got a wave of coolies for nothing!
Unexpectedly, this person really had two strokes, Shen Zhiming became more and more convinced that he was the mainstay of Taiwei Wen's faction, and immediately wrote to Liu Xiang to inquire about the situation. Will there be a reply to the letter sent to Kyoto for a while and a half, but he is already secretly thinking about how to get rid of Jiang Qiao, but in addition to solving the civil unrest, this person also went to Qingfeng Temple, and then he couldn't go out!
Thinking of being forced by him in bed, this person kept saying that time was urgent, and it was out of helplessness to make a decision, but looking at his current behavior, he didn't care about the flood in Weicheng at all. Shen Zhiming gritted his teeth with hatred, and decided that they were just trying to humiliate himself.
Thinking that he was a dignified member of the frontier, but he was played by a yellow-mouthed child, Shen Zhiming became more and more annoyed, and vowed to let Jiang Qiao confess in this Leizhou.
Who knew that this kid was always so unexpected, and after a few days of stuffy lockdown, he actually made such an earth-shattering thing!
In the loud sound that resounded through half of Leizhou, Shen Zhiming, who came back to his senses, tore up the impeachment that had just been written, and the words "Prince" and "His Royal Highness Yining" were still rare in the shredded paper.
Moving mountains and reclamation of the sea, that is the power of the gods, people rely on the gods to survive, so the gods set up temples and worship them devoutly. Daqi is a country that believes in God, and the people are willing to endure suffering because of God, and always keep hope. If hope is not exhausted, they will never succumb to suffering.
But in their simple conception, the prayer for God is only to be fed, clothed, healthy, and safe, and no matter how greedy they are, they are only asking for wealth and power, and that's it. No one has ever dared to have the power of God.
So when Jiang Qiao took out those things that were not very strange on the outside, but were said to be able to blow up the foothills of the mountain, all the people who were busy on the side of the mountain, including Jiang Tao and Lin Sanchun, laughed at him for being crazy.
And what's even more slap in the face is that the first two really failed, they didn't even make a sound, and a puff of green smoke slipped out of the thorn and it was over!
Jiang Qiao was also a little dumbfounded, there was a rush in his heart, and he was in danger under the attention of everyone before he held a cold expression, with a strategizing posture, but his palms were quietly sweating.
Lin Sanchun covered his face and didn't look at Jiang Qiao, Jiang Tao was quite kind, sensing the embarrassment of the scene, he coughed dryly and wanted to hand him the stairs, so he said: "The adults are afraid that we will be tired, so I deliberately found an excuse to let the big guy rest, and now that we are rested, continue to be busy!" ”
"Wait." If you lose it, you will lose face, Jiang Qiao looked at those in his hand, and decided to fight ruthlessly, "Don't get close yet, hide away, run as far as you want!" ”
"Don't make a fuss!" Lin Sanchun couldn't stand it anymore, and directly pulled Jiang Qiao's sleeve, and was about to drag the person away, and muttered in his mouth: "Look at where the rain has gone, His Royal Highness is still waiting for our good news in Weicheng!" ”
Jiang Qiao grimaced, grabbed Lin Sanchun's hand on his sleeve, and said in a deep voice, "I'm not messing around. Look at the river, Leizhou is still like this, Weicheng is probably already in danger, according to your burning method, I don't know how busy it will be, it must be too late! ”
Lin Sanchun grabbed his hair frantically, raised his eyes to look directly at Jiang Qiao, and said with the same seriousness: "Your Highness originally only came to Weicheng to curb the plague, and she rejected Liu Xiangkeng's proposal to kill the sick husband. Now, in time for the heavy rains for months, His Highness has taken over the affairs of controlling the floods. If Weicheng can't be saved, Wanzhou will also be implicated, and when His Royal Highness returns to Beijing, he will face the reproach of the civil and military officials. ”
"I know." Jiang Qiao didn't dodge, so that Lin Sanchun could see the firmness in his eyes.
The Adam's apple moved up and down, Lin Sanchun raised his arm, and spit out a sentence with some difficulty: "All members retreat, the farther the better!" ”
Lin Sanchun was the highest-ranking general present, and Jiang Tao was his brother with a pair of pants, he saw Lin Sanchun compromise, and immediately signaled his officers and soldiers to evacuate the people, and retreated until Jiang Qiao, who could not see the side of the mountain, and did not stop.
His Royal Highness believes in Jiang Qiao, he should trust His Highness's judgment. Lin Sanchun retreated quickly, while staring at Jiang Qiao's gradually blurred tall and thin figure.
Confirming that everyone had retreated very far, Jiang Qiao held the soil explosives that he had worked so hard to get, estimated that he would put one at a similar distance, and then put another one after walking for a while, and when the last one was placed, Jiang Qiao exhaled heavily, as long as there was an explosion, the one next to it would be affected and exploded, so he didn't need to ignite the fire one by one, but ......
You have to make sure that the explosives are okay.
There was an inexplicable eagerness in his heart, and he no longer wasted time thinking about things he couldn't be sure of, and put his hand close to the torch for an introduction. After finishing the order, he didn't stop for long, he decisively ran towards the forest that he didn't have time to cut down, and then immediately entered the space.
Jiang Qiao was still a little stunned when he threw himself on the grass, his palms were cold, and for the first time he wanted to find some ghosts and gods to believe in, so that he could ask them for their blessing now, instead of being so anxious alone.
"Roar~"
The Tiger King lazily walked over and sniffed him, his tail curling a red fruit in his face, and a grunt slipped past his mouth.
"What is this?" Jiang Qiao picked it up and saw that the fruit was still a little like cherry tomatoes, the color of the skin and flesh was the same as that of the tiger brother's tail, and the red was like fire and blood.
The Tiger King ignored him, walked out to the hillside with his coquettish cat steps and wagged his tail to bask in the sun, and after a while yawned pleasantly.
Jiang Qiao squinted his eyes, rubbed the fruit on his clothes and ate it in his mouth, without hesitation.
This time the change was quick and gentle, and the pain he guessed did not hit, but the whole person was a little lazy.
He lay on his back on the grass, and the first time he got the space, the feeling of being connected to the blood of the earth returned. There was a barrier in his mind that was shattered by a nameless gentle force, Jiang Qiao touched the copper coin around his neck, knowing that until now he was its true owner.
"Roar~" Brother Tiger glanced at Jiang Qiao and shouted majestically.
Obviously, it was still the same roar as usual, but Jiang Qiao had a feeling of being in touch with it. Because he clearly heard the other party calling him "stupid".
After half a second, Jiang Qiao walked over and touched Brother Tiger's tail, and said in a low voice, "Thank you, Tailed Fire Tiger." ”
Receiving the white eyes of the tiger brother's contempt, Jiang Qiao grinned, using his newly acquired ability to close his eyes to perceive the scene outside the space.
There was chaos at first, then there was light and color, and he was the first to see a ruined forest, with broken trees, rocks, and a few clusters of flames burning tenaciously.
Ecstasy suddenly rose in his heart, Jiang Qiao knew that the explosives must have been successfully detonated!
Coming back from the excitement, several people appeared in his line of sight one after another, with anxious faces and mouths moving to say something, but unfortunately he couldn't hear the sound. But a cursory thought about it shows that they must be looking for him. The explosion was so loud, and he was the one responsible for igniting the fire, and the lead was not very long, if he hadn't held the space in his hand without fear, he would have been blown up.
Jiang Qiao waited patiently, and after this wave of people checked it again, they went to another place. He cautiously probed around to make sure that no one was there, and then bent down decisively and grabbed a handful of black ash and smeared it on his face and body.
Thinking that the last time was in the forest, as soon as he appeared, he was pressed to the ground by Ah Jiang's guards, ate a mouthful of muddy water, and completed the reunion with Ah Jiang in embarrassment.
If he had this ability at that time, he would definitely play in the coolest way, but it's a pity......
As soon as he sighed, Lin Sanchun rushed over quickly, grabbed Jiang Qiao's sleeve, looked ecstatic and flustered, and it seemed that he almost didn't howl.
"I ......"
"I know you're excited and nervous."
"You ......"
"I know I'm amazing and blessed."
"Your Highness......"
"We," Jiang Qiao's tongue swirled around in his mouth, and his eyes flashed with an inevitable light, "We will be able to go back soon." ”
Lin Sanchun suddenly had a little itchy hands, looking at Jiang Qiao's bastard scoundrel appearance, all admiration and worship turned into the desire to beat him. If it weren't for the deep memory of being picked up by Jiang Qiao last time, he would have done it now!
"Jiang Qiao." Jiang Tao's eyes were also mixed with a little admiration when he looked at Jiang Qiao, and asked him a little stammering: "You, did you still have that thing before?" Did you do it yourself? Can you still do it, that ......"
Jiang Qiao looked at his blushing face, and knew the expectation implied in his words, so he replied seriously: "It can be done, but there is still a long way to go for combat." ”
After all, he can't even guarantee the success rate, and the power of the earth explosives is also unstable. What's more, on the way to the battlefield, it is very likely that it will suddenly explode, allowing the enemy soldiers to defeat Daqi without blood.
The two soldiers present showed disappointed expressions, but soon stared at Jiang Qiao with bright eyes full of hope, like a hungry wolf staring at fat.
Jiang Qiao's hair stood on end, and he kicked them away one by one, rubbing his arms and walking towards the side of the mountain.
"Her Royal Highness the Princess is really wise and knowledgeable." The two of them watched Jiang Qiao's back go away, and they invariably raised the highest respect for Princess Yining.
The mountains were not completely blown up, but they blew up the gap in Jiang Qiao's budget impartially, and the water of the Wei River rushed to the sea, and Jiang Qiao felt that the sound of the water was so beautiful for the first time.
The mountain people who helped to find Jiang Qiao gathered through the rocks in a place, and looked at Jiang Qiao's eyes in shock.
"You...... What are you? A man asked him hesitantly, looking very nervous.
What is the problem? Jiang Qiao was speechless for a moment, but a few thoughts quickly turned in his mind.
So the simple-minded people of Leizhou saw that this person's face was holy, as if he was a visitor from outside the world, and said in a gentle and firm tone:
"I am the savior who assists the king in reviving the Great Qi."
The colorful auspicious clouds are already there, and now he is just about to become a great hero of the world.
Jiang Qiao looked at Weicheng from afar across the Weishui, as if he could see the old city wall of Weicheng, as well as the delicate pale green figure on the city wall.
