Chapter 388: Murder and arson gold belt
Three days later, the shopkeeper of the Wenxuan received a letter, which did not have a word written on it, and the fire paint was complete. After the shopkeeper handed over the letter to Xiao Anu, he no longer asked, and he didn't even send someone to report to Zhang Ruyu.
If Xiao Anu was sent by a political enemy, as long as she returned to Beijing with this letter, it would be enough to make Zhang Ru break his bones.
However, the detective master of Nanzhen Fusi, whose daughter is a man, didn't even have time to think about it, so he went directly to the Datong Thousand Households Station with the letter.
She didn't notice that on the way back to the Datong Qianhu station, there were people following her in the dark.
It is true that she is a detective master, but she is not a Jianghu person, she has a position of the general flag, but she does not have the combat effectiveness of the general flag. In the words of later generations, she is a very thorough technical talent.
"Shopkeeper, unblocked." After the two unsurprising-looking young men said a word to the shopkeeper, they disappeared one after another.
The corner of the shopkeeper's mouth hooked up a smile, and then he gave a command to the little servant, turned around and walked into the side hall.
After entering the side hall, the shopkeeper looked left and right, and then walked to the corner of the wall and kicked the third row of bricks in the corner of the wall hard.
"Boom!"
After a loud bang, a large hole cracked in the ground, and the hole closed when the shopkeeper jumped down.
The sound insulation of this room is very good, and there are three layers of wall tiles inside and out, and the bricks are all large green bricks, which are of good quality and impermeable. So the sound inside the room was loud, but the sound outside was very small.
There is a dark passage underground, and there are four forks in total, and each fork has three roads, and the road at each intersection is two deaths. If ordinary people are not familiar with the tunnels, there is a chance that they will not be able to get out.
Walking through the last fork in the road, the shopkeeper got into a small hole, and then knocked on the door panel of the hole that was just enough for one person to lie down.
"Crunch!"
The door, which was as narrow as a dog's hole, was opened, and a bright light came from inside.
The shopkeeper crawled out on the ground, then stood up and patted the dust on his knees and chest: "This ghost place, it's really hard to walk, big shopkeeper, now that the situation outside is clear, why are you still hiding in this ghost place." ”
The shopkeeper of the Datong Wenxuan said as soon as he entered the door.
A middle-aged man was sitting at the table and pondering, and after hearing his question, he calmly said, "The situation outside is not as clear as you say. Now although Hou Ye has come to Datong, Hou Ye has not given us instructions. Not only could we not go out until the instructions arrived, but we also couldn't let people know that we were alive. ”
The shopkeeper of Datong Wenxuan cocked his thumb and looked admiring: "Sure enough, I deserve to be the big shopkeeper, anyway, my heart is not as fine as yours." Today, Hou Ye sent someone over, and someone handed over a letter to the wicked man of Hou Ye, but I don't know what the person who sent the letter did. ”
It's none other than Xie Lun who is hiding here.
After he secretly signed back from Tianjin, he took a few injured brothers to hide in this secret passage that did not see the light of day, except for the shopkeeper of the Datong Wenxuan who would come to deliver food every day, no one knew that they had arrived in Datong.
Xie Lun heard this: "Don't tell me about such things in the future, I'm not interested in knowing." Hou Ye trusts us to take care of this family business, I will sue you, it is best not to have any side thoughts. Otherwise, don't say it's Master Hou, I won't let you go first. ”
The shopkeeper of Datong Wenxuan said haha: "Okay, okay, okay, I know, you're still such a violent temper." I don't understand, doesn't Hou Ye's side really care about what happened on the Wenxuan's side, you have been hiding here for so long, and Hou Ye's side didn't send anyone to contact. ”
Xie Lun said lightly: "Master Hou is free of Lord Hou's plan, we are subordinates, as long as we unswervingly carry out the order, don't ask if you can, don't ask, know too much, it's not good for you and me." ”
The shopkeeper of Datong Wenxuan was bored with himself, and patted his head very depressedly: "Yes, you have the final say, you just pout, I'll go out to greet the guests first." ”
Xie Lun didn't speak, and waved him to leave.
Another Wenxuan guy who was almost killed in Tianjin opened his mouth and said: "Little second son, let people send two taels of Hengshui Lao Bai to come over at night, this day, my legs are tired." ”
The shopkeeper of Datong Wenxuan, who was called the second son, responded very crisply: "Well, so many brothers, one person and two taels." ”
After coming out of the secret passage, the youngest son continued to stand by the counter and squint as if he was fine, and no one knew what the shopkeeper was thinking.
On the other side, without the instructions of the General Altar, the low-level disciples of the White Lotus Sect, who were completely provoked by some of Zhang Ru's excesses, began to move.
It is not entirely true to say that they are low-level cultists, because these people who want to make a move are all people who have a small position in the church, but they are not high-level figures.
They hoped that through the rebel organization of the White Lotus Sect, they would achieve their goal of becoming kings and marquises.
Among them, there are many down-and-out scholars who are famous in the scientific examination.
Some people say that this is the most terrible thing in the world is the scholar, don't look at the scholar is weak, but he really kills people without a knife. With a slight wave of the fluttering pen, I don't know how many heads will roll to the ground.
This group of scholars who have a small status in the White Lotus Sect is doing what they are doing at the moment.
"Brother Du, I have to bother you to come up with advice this time." A white-clothed scholar smiled and bowed to another Tsing Yi scholar.
The scholar in Tsing Yi said modestly: "Brother Li is serious, this time we will work together, and everyone will make suggestions together." I don't know if Brother Li knows, how many people can participate in the big event this time? ”
The white-clothed scholar said: "Xiaolizhuang, Qingmuling, Black Mountain Pass and other places were slaughtered, which made everyone below panic, this time, I am afraid that there will not be many people." You said that we didn't ask the general altar, isn't it a bit reckless to do this! ”
Another brown-clothed scholar said disdainfully: "Brother Li is so timid, how can he achieve the great thing of the White Lotus." That Zhang Wenxuan and Jinyi Wei have always been the great enemies of my White Lotus Holy Sect. Now that I finally found out where Zhang Wenxuan is, if I don't wait to make some means, it will inevitably make the world look down on my White Lotus Holy Sect. ”
The scholar in Tsing Yi praised: "Brother Mu is right, Brother Li should not worry about the sky. We have nearly 10,000 people in our hands, and the court is not easy to handle us. The garrison of Datong Thousand Households is only more than 2,100, how can it withstand the impact of tens of thousands of people. What's more, these people are unarmed, if the soldiers and horses of the imperial court are killed, what will the people of the world think? ”
The white-clothed scholar snorted: "Li Moufei is cowardly, it is really our doing, I have not asked the main altar, I am afraid that the adults on the side of the main altar will blame." ”
The brown-clothed scholar said proudly: "Killing people and setting fire to the gold belt, building bridges and paving roads without corpses, isn't my old Taishan a great good man in ten miles and eight towns, but he offended a servant of the Ministry of Rites, and the whole family of one hundred and three people was left behind by the imperial court." If it weren't for the clumsy Jing running fast, I am afraid that I would have been separated from heaven and man forever.
If we succeed this time, it will be too late for the adults of the General Altar to be promoted.
If we can't kill this fang this time, it is not known whether we can go back to the main altar to restore our lives, and where can we take care of what happens after success or failure.
Brother Li is old and young, if he really doesn't want to mix, Mu will not be reluctant. Everyone is a brother, and each has its own difficulties, which is understandable to Mu. ”
The scholar in Tsing Yi said with a smile: "Brother Mu doesn't need to worry, Brother Li and you and I are all heart-to-heart, how can they abandon us." Besides, there is no way in the court, Brother Li's wife was humiliated by a traitor, and her soul has been in the underworld for a long time. Brother Li, a dignified man, has such a deep hatred, how can he let it go. ”
The white-clothed scholar sighed: "What the two brothers said, Li Mou is a dignified man, naturally he can't do something treacherous. also asked the two brothers to come up with a charter, and Li did his best. ”
The corners of the brown-clothed scholar's mouth hooked up a smug smile, in the hands of the three of them, there were the most white-clothed scholars, if the white-clothed scholars were not mixed, with the five thousand people in the hands of him and the Tsing Yi scholars, he really didn't dare to go against the regular army of the imperial court.
After smiling at each other with the scholar in Tsing Yi, the scholar in brown pointed to the location of the Datong Thousand Households on the rough map and said: "The Datong Thousand Households Office is located in the northwest of Datong, which is deserted, except for the garrison camp, you have to walk nearly twenty miles to see people.
Now Zhang Thief leads an army of 2,000 and 1, and the troops are stationed here, and the grain and grass are delivered every month.
Three days later, when the grain and grass reach the Datong Thousand Households, we must hurry up and surround the Datong Thousand Households within three days, and then send people to attack.
The terrain here is high, which is conducive to the bow and arrow attack of the people of the imperial court, so my plan is to instigate the old and young women and children to open the way in the first round, and those people may not be able to attack the old and young women and children.
After approaching, the young and strong rushed up, regardless of casualties, as long as they took the military camp of Datong Thousand Households, the day when we soared was just around the corner. ”
"Brother Mu, if the imperial army kills the people, wouldn't we have created a great slaughter!" The young man in white said with some hesitation.
"Alas, Brother Li, you can't say that, those who achieve big things are not informal, since they have to do it, naturally there will be deaths and injuries. Besides, those poor ghosts don't even know how to live every day, so it's better to die than to save some food. The scholar in Tsing Yi said disdainfully.
When it comes to those ordinary people, this scholar surnamed Du in Tsing Yi is very disdainful.
The young man in white stopped talking, but he knew a little more about his two comrades, and at the same time, he began to wonder if he was on the wrong path.
After a few people discussed, the young man in white returned home with a heavy heart, except for a pair of children and a blind old mother, there was only a hunchbacked old servant.
Once a wealthy family, now it has plummeted, which is why the young man in white joined the White Lotus Sect.
