Chapter Seventy-Two: The mountain rain is coming, and the wind is full of buildings

1,000 taels a year is not a small amount. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 infoIn this era when a slave only needs a few dozen copper plates, gold and silver are more valuable, and the thirty slaves that Bai Mo bought before cost less than two taels of silver, and the income and expenditure of the treasury are even measured with copper coins, and it is too extravagant to use silver. Now Bai Mo's silver money from Hefu is only 5,000 taels when it is full, which is the money that He's family made a political investment in Baimo, and it is not a small amount for He's himself.

But now that his life is at stake, Bai Mo has no time to worry about money.

The moon is silent, and the moonlight is bright.

Bai Mo didn't dare to walk on the official road, and now he was trudging through the fields, bandaging his wounds while struggling to walk on the soft soil.

At night, it was only at the fifth watch that Bai Mo saw the gate of Fengjing City.

The armor soldiers on the tower of the city gate each held torches, patrolling back and forth, not daring to relax a little. Bai Mo was now covered in blood, and as soon as he arrived at the city gate, a soldier immediately asked, "The name of the person who came!" ā€

"Captain Baimo, please open the door!"

"Now the doors are closed, and they cannot be opened. You wait. ā€

"There are assassins outside the city! Now Bai must enter the city immediately, if Bai dies under the city gate, can you afford it? Tell your leaders to come out and talk to me! ā€

In the face of Bai Mo's roar, the armor soldier said neither humbly nor arrogantly: "Bai Tingwei, I might as well tell you directly, the Sprinkle family will not let you enter the city, it is for your own good, now there are assassins rampant in the city, Jin Wu and Qianniu Zhuwei are suppressing bandits, and the lieutenant personally supervises the battle, and the situation inside is much more severe than outside the city." Until all the Assassins are caught, it may not be possible to open the door at dawn. Bai Tingwei, you can wait outside the city first. ā€

"I have a waist card to enter and exit Miyagi."

"That's not a waist card for entering and leaving Fengjing City, you are a court lieutenant, in charge of the law, how can you not act according to the law?"

The soldier said very reasonably, Bai Mo had no choice but to ask him about the situation in the city.

"Sergeant, there are assassins in the city too?"

"What's more, there are crowds, wandering around, and what's even more bizarre is that they not only kill dignitaries, but also different assassins collide together, and even kill each other, and the lieutenant has found the corpses of many assassins caused by cannibalism. Tsk, once this incident passed, it is estimated that I will not even be able to keep the lieutenant's official hat. ā€

Bai Mo frowned and pinched his eyebrows.

In such a bad public security incident, he, the court lieutenant, may also be implicated.

Now he had to go into the city and have a look.

"Sergeant, what's your name?"

"The famous bear of the Sprinkle family."

"Have you heard the story of Li Guang killing Captain Baling?"

"I haven't heard of it."

"Legend has it that there is an ancient kingdom called Han Kingdom......"

"I've heard that the Han Kingdom, which is very close to the Chu State, has long been destroyed by our Great Jin."

"Bai is talking about the ancient Han Kingdom! There was a great general in the ancient Han state, named Li Guang, who went out of the city to shoot at night, and when he returned, he was not allowed to enter the city. Later, a thief entered the Han Kingdom, the Han army was defeated, and the King of Han summoned Li Guang to guard the border, and Li Guang wanted to let the Baling Lieutenant go with him. Ba Ling Wei Zhi, that is, he was killed by Li Guang in the army. In fact, Li Guang has such a high position, and his party also shares honor and disgrace with him behind him. ā€

"Bai Tingwei, are you threatening me?"

"Let me enter the city today, and you will be beaten with a stick at most. If you don't let me into the city, you can think about the consequences. ā€

Nothing to say for a moment.

A moment later.

"Open the door! Let Bai Tingwei enter the city! ā€

Only a small crack was opened in the gates.

Bai Mo squeezed through the crack in the door, and the gate was about to close.

The sergeant was very careful, Bai Mo really praised him in his heart, but now he didn't care about gossip, as soon as he entered the city gate, Bai Mo immediately galloped home.

He hadn't walked long before he saw a group of Kingo patrolling with torches. When Jin Wu saw Bai Mo, he immediately shouted, "Who is walking at night? Go home! If you don't go home, you won't be killed! ā€

"Bai is on his way home."

Those Jingo were obviously not satisfied with this answer.

Jin Wu gathered around, and the leader and Bai Mo saw each other's appearances clearly, and suddenly laughed and patted each other's chests.

It turned out to be an acquaintance.

When Bai Mo and Wei Yi were fighting on the street, it was this team of Jin Wu who took down the two of them, and the leader was called Wang Dashi, but he was not the chief official, but the real chief officer Li Yun was the only one who looked at Wang Dashi.

"Childe, how are you doing lately?"

"Do you look at my blood, like I'm well?"

"Haha, that's right, Childe wait a minute, come on, take him down for me."

Wang Dashi said, and two Jinwu came with ropes in their hands.

Bai Mo shook his head and said, "Lao Wang, Bai has something important to do, so I don't have time to toss with you here." ā€

Wang Dashi also shook his head: "In extraordinary times, do extraordinary things." Childe, where is your home? We'll send you there. ā€

"You don't know that I've been promoted to court captain?" Bai Mo sighed, oppressing people with authority, it was originally his most hateful behavior, but he used it twice tonight, "This is the waist card." ā€

Wang Dashi picked up the ivory waist card in Bai Mo's hand and looked at it, and sighed: "Bai Tingwei, in this matter, you have to show me the official seal to count." Now I can only say on my personal behalf that I believe in you. Tell me, where is your home? ā€

"Forget it...... I'm going to take a trip with you. My home is in Qingyangfang in the south of Guoya Pai, take me there. ā€

The two Jin Wu immediately tied up Bai Mo, and Wang Dashi also took the Jia Wuyi from Bai Mo's waist.

"Let's go, go to Qingyangfang."

At this time, Li Yun said: "Qingyangfang is in charge, so we can only inspect the official road." ā€

"Can that bunch of fangding be used for fart? Haven't you heard, those assassins are all high-ranking Jianghu people, so we have to go out to use a few of them. Wang Dashi said, glanced at Bai Mo, who had been tied up with five flowers, and whispered to Li Yun: "Xiao Li, can't you see it, this Bai Tingwei is also a Jianghu person." ā€

Li Yun said in a low voice: "Brother Wang, didn't we arrest him for the first time because of the brawl between the people in the rivers and lakes?" Is your skull broken? ā€

"If you don't say it, I'll forget." Wang Dashi patted his head, "We arrested him twice, will he hold a grudge against us?" ā€

"That's right...... Since he said that he wanted to go home, let's send him home safely. ā€

Wang Dashi scolded: "That's what Lao Tzu meant from the beginning!" You're going to get in the way! Brothers, walk, go to Qingyangfang! ā€

In this way, Bai Mo was escorted to his door by them like a prisoner.

Along the way, there were all Jingo patrolling the city, each with a vigilant face.

They could also sense that something big was going on tonight.

The rope on Bai Mo's body was untied, and he said goodbye to Wang Dashi and the others, and then returned home under the guidance of the servants.

"Nothing happened at home, right?"

"Returning to the old man......" said Kunlun Nu Defeng, "Dequan and Deshun are dead, and the ladies are fine, and they are now in the house, waiting for you to come back." ā€

When Bai Mo heard this, he completely lost his patience and ran into the house like a smoke.

He Cai, Qin Daji and Leng Yuyan saw Bai Mo coming back, and hugged Bai Mo together, the youngest He Cai was the eldest woman in the family after all, and she couldn't help crying, but she could already clearly see that tears were rolling in her eyes. Qin Daji cried loudly. Only Leng Yuyan was breeze, but her body was covered with bloodstains like Bai Mo.

"Are you alright?" Leng Yuyan took the lead in spreading his hand.

He Cai and Qin Daji also found that the old man was covered in blood, and they also spread their hands, and asked one after another, "Master, what's wrong with you?" Is it bandaged? Do you want to take some medicine? ā€

Bai Mo responded: "There is no big thing. But it is not enough to only apply medicine to the wound, and a few stitches are required. What about at home? How's it going at home? Are you all alright? ā€

He Cai and Qin Daji looked at Leng Yuyan in unison.

Leng Yuyan said: "Master, you come with me." ā€

Leng Yuyan led Bai Mo to the room of the Kunlun slaves, and the corpses of Dequan and Deshun were lying on the ground neatly, in addition to the two of them, there were also two men in black. But the furnishings in the house were as neat as the corpses, and it was not a place for fighting.

"Today's original duty is to follow all the things smoothly. The Assassin killed both of them before breaking into the courtyard. But at this time, it happened that I was admiring the moon in the yard. ā€

"So, you got into a fight with them in the yard?"

"The martial arts of these two assassins are very average. So, don't worry, the eldest lady and the second lady are fine, and I'm fine, it's just a false alarm. But what's going on over there? Why didn't Deyi come back? Also dead? ā€

Bai Mo snorted.

Leng Yuyan continued: "I was discovered. ā€

"What did you find?"

"I know martial arts."

Bai Mo waved his hand: "If you are discovered, you will be discovered." ā€

"Now the eldest lady must have a lot to say to you."

"Well, I'll go and crush her later."

"Bai Mo, I'll go and rob you of a healer."

"That's what I said."

"There's martial law outside, haven't you noticed?"

"No, be careful if they kill you like an assassin. Your man was brought back as a prisoner. I'm going to find Hecai, you have a good rest. ā€

Bai Mo left the room.

Leng Yuyan pursed his lips, didn't say a word, and didn't move his body.

Tears rolled down and fell to the ground.

Suddenly, Bai Mo rushed into the room from the outside, hugged Leng Yuyan, and gave a long kiss.

"Hmm......"

Leng Yuyan struggled twice, and then hugged Bai Mo's waist.

"Yanyan, thank you, I'm sorry."

Bai Mo said, wiping away the tears on Leng Yuyan's face.

Leng Yuyan opened her mouth and did not speak. Because now she must be crying when she speaks, and she doesn't want Bai Mo to hear her crying. She just wanted to say, I'm used to it, that's it.

Bai Mo nodded at her, and went to appease He Cai and Qin Daji.

The two of them were scared enough.

Tonight's Fengjing City can be described as full of wind and rain, and the city patrol Jinwu, Qianniu and Fangding, who were originally sleeping at home, were all pulled up and inspected until the third pole of the day, and then went home to rest in shifts one after another.

In the morning, the eunuchs of the palace scattered around the city to the homes of the ministers to deliver the edicts.
