Chapter 92: Arrows in the Rain

When I arrived here, I saw a pavilion on the side of the road from a distance, and there were many people standing around the pavilion, and they were holding a big umbrella.

If it is simply a transit of officers and soldiers, then the local officials will absolutely ignore it. It's just that this time is different, the officials and soldiers are the show girls who are escorted to the emperor, and the respect for them is the respect for the emperor, so the local officials are going to greet and send them off.

This place is a T-junction, and to the north is to enter Tunzhou City. There is no village near the T-junction, just an intersection, and there are more people coming and going, so there are several inns here that are specially used for tourists to stay in the hotel.

These inns are scattered around the T-junction, and because it is far from the city, they grow their own crops and vegetable fields. It has become a group of roadside shops that are not considered a village.

The pavilion is at the T-junction, which is also because some court officials often pass by, and the local officials want to greet and see them off, and if the officials do not enter the city, they will be sent here and build a pavilion.

When the group came to the pavilion, the officials came over, clasping their fists and smiling.

Yi Xingchen didn't know these magistrates, so he asked Gao Zhugan next to him in a low voice, and Gao Zhugan hurriedly introduced him in a low voice. Only then did I learn that the thin old man who walked in front was the local magistrate, surnamed Zhu, and there were also county officials such as the county magistrate and the chief bookkeeper.

Among the county seats under the jurisdiction of Tunzhou Prefecture, there is Qingyang County, where Tunzhou Mansion is located, and several governors of Qingyang County are coming, although the escort is a show girl for the emperor, but these show girls, because they are only for selection, do not end up in the palace, and there is no accompanying eunuch, so it is enough to express the respect of local officials for the emperor by the magistrate of the same state capital. Therefore, the prefect of Tunzhou Prefecture did not show up.

Zongqi hurriedly turned over, dismounted, stepped forward and bowed, and the fists he was holding were about to touch the ground. Yi Xingchen, Gao Zhugan, and Ai Donggua also turned over and immediately stepped forward to clasp their fists and surrender their hands, but the three of them just bent down slightly, after all, the other party was a high-grade court official. When several magistrates saw the flying fish clothes they were wearing, and the spring knives embroidered on their waists and hips, they knew that they were Jinyi Wei, and they were naturally full of spring breeze, and they returned the salute again and again, and invited them into the pavilion, on which a table of wine and banquet had been placed. In addition, there are officials of the county government who greet the accompanying officers and soldiers to drink and eat. The show girls in the car also had women who brought them meals, and they ate in the car without getting out of the car.

Entering the pavilion, the guests and hosts took their seats.

Na Zhixian accompanied Yi Xingchen and asked the names of the three of them, raised a toast, and said some words.

This is only when I started drinking, and when I had drunk three rounds of dishes and five flavors, and a few people were a little drunk, they opened the conversation. Zhu Zhixian drank a lot of wine, and he could speak well, he kept raising his glass to invite each other, and toasted frequently, drinking Yi Xingchen and the others to the point that their faces were red.

After eating until he was full of wine and food, Zongqi patted his bulging belly and said: "Oh, it's really enjoyable, thank you for the hospitality of a few adults, my stomach is uncomfortable, go to the thatched house." With that, he ran to the latrine next to the inn opposite.

Several civil officials smiled and shook their heads, in the end, it was a military general, it was really a bit vulgar, and this kind of thing was also said at the wine table.

Yi Xingchen looked at the general flag holding his stomach and saying that he was uncomfortable and ran to the toilet, he couldn't help but feel a pang in his heart, remembered the display of the hexagram he had calculated before, and quickly looked around, and then looked at the sky, the black pressure was gloomy, and he was even more worried, and said: "It looks like it's going to rain." ”

Zhu Zhixian came over with wine and said with a smile: "It's been cloudy for a day, and it's time to fall, what is Gu Yu called if there is no rain on a rainy day?" It's just that today's rain is only afraid that it will be a rainstorm, come, Brother Yi, you are a young Jinyi guard, and you have a bright future, brother, I hit it off with you at first sight, admired it tightly, and saw that you drank very well at a young age, even drank so much, even the general flag was already unstable, but you were nothing, you were really a hero from ancient times, come, let's have another drink. ”

Yi Xingchen needs to calm down now, so he didn't let go of the drinking just now, in fact, he didn't drink much just now, but when he said this, he seemed to feel arrogant. He smiled with the wine and said: "Thank you for raising the county lord, I used to be a fortune teller, and I ate under your hands, I didn't expect to be able to drink at the same table with the county lord today. ”

Nazhi County didn't even dare to say it, so he drank it all with wine.

Yi Xingchen was about to drink, but at this moment, it began to rain outside the pavilion.

Yi Xingchen couldn't help but feel nervous in his heart, holding the cup, looking at the rain outside the pavilion and saying, "It's really raining." ”

The officers and soldiers who were originally sitting cross-legged on both sides of the road to eat and drink, when they saw the rain, they quickly hid under the eaves of the roadside inns, but some did not dare to go too far from the vehicles, so they stood by the carriage with umbrellas and drenched in the rain.

The rain came very quickly, it was just a light rain, but in the blink of an eye, it turned into a torrential rain. The officers and soldiers and officials hid quickly, but they were also wet by the rain for several times, but unfortunately the wine and food on the ground were wet by the rain before they had time to clean up.

Of course, Yi Xingchen couldn't get drenched in the rain in the pavilion, but they felt that they were drinking all over their bodies, and after the rain, they were very comfortable, so they drank more happily.

Yi Xingchen held the wine, stood under the corridor of the pavilion, and looked around.

The heavy rain formed a thick rain mist between the mountains, covering the distant mountains in the rain, only the nearby inn could see clearly, and the vegetable patch behind the inn was violently attacked by the rain.

Zhu Zhixian saw that Yi Xingchen was only looking at the rainstorm outside, but he still didn't drink a glass of wine in his hand, so he poured another glass and brought it over and said with a smile: "Brother Yi, you haven't drunk your wine yet, come, brother will accompany you to have another drink." ”

Yi Xingchen hurriedly confessed, drank the wine in his hand, Zhu Zhixian laughed out loud, and said that the young hero, the future is terrifying, he picked up the wine glass and was about to drink, suddenly, he heard a whoosh, a sharp arrow shot from the rain curtain, drew a long water wire, drilled into the pavilion, and bang, the wine glass in Zhu Zhixian's hand was broken, and it was submerged in the rain.

Zhu Zhixian was so frightened that he screamed, and at this moment, the screams of the officers and soldiers and the officials were also heard in all directions. Everyone hurriedly looked up, only to see countless arrows coming from the rain, and the officers and soldiers standing by the carriage hiding under the eaves were hit by arrows one after another and fell to the ground.

And at this moment, the general flag leading the troops was squatting in the latrine, and the officers and soldiers were suddenly leaderless, and they couldn't imagine that under the peaceful and prosperous times, there were bandits who really attacked them, and they shot arrows, and there was no shield in their hands to resist. Those with slightly higher martial arts pulled out their blades and dialed, and those with lower martial arts fell to the ground with an arrow and died.

Zhu Zhixian was so frightened by the arrow that he shot that he collapsed to the ground at once. Everyone else was terrified and ducked under the table.

Yi Xingchen immediately said to Ai Donggua: "Take Zhixian with you, follow me, go to the vegetable field over there, quickly!" ”

Gao Zhugan and Ai Donggua didn't know what Yi Xingchen was going to do, but the eldest brother had an order, of course, he had to obey, but now the situation was urgent and there was no way to discuss, seeing that Yi Xingchen had already rushed into the rain curtain, so Ai Donggua grabbed Zhu Zhixian on the ground and rushed out of the pavilion. The high bamboo pole, which is good at light skills, caught up with Yi Xingchen in two ups and downs, held his armpits, and carried him to the vegetable field.

Yi Xingchen stood in the vegetable field and looked around, and saw a newly dug soil pit next to this vegetable field, which seemed to be ready to be dug for the manure tank, but it was only half dug and not yet completed, so it was just a soil pit that was not too deep, and he immediately said to Gao Zhupole and Ai Donggua: "Hide in the soil kang, quick!" ”

The three of them took Zhu Zhixian and hurriedly jumped into the pit and lay on the edge of the pit, at this time, the arrows were like rain, whizzing overhead. The county magistrate, the chief bookkeeper and others hiding in the pavilion have been shot like hedgehogs with random arrows. Died tragically in the gazebo.
