Chapter 776: Auspicious Imperial Immunity
The night was dark, and the sound of the husband's bangs gradually faded away in the lonely night sky, but the already quiet compound suddenly became commotion.
Although it is not the best time to kill people and set fires, it is enough for this group of skilled "thieves".
Gao Ying put the green scarf on her face, slashed forward with her palm, and said softly: "Let's go!" ”
After Yang Fan and the others were arrested and put in prison, the thoughtful Gu Zhuting immediately returned to the compound they rented, so that Yang Fan's people could quickly hide to avoid being discovered that the arrested person had anything to do with this house, and immediately discussed countermeasures with Gao Ying, Lan Yiqing and other people who knew the purpose of the trip.
The idea of revealing their identities and asking Fangling County to release people was quickly vetoed by them, but in addition, they didn't have a more haode way, they discussed and discussed, and everyone unanimously decided: rob the prison!
Although this would still cause a stir in the place, they did not care too much at this time, and they were prepared in advance, and before closing the city gates, they had already sent their horses out of the city, and hid them in a dense forest six miles outside the city, and left as soon as they had robbed the prison. If they want to go out of the city, the low walls of Fangling City are certainly not a problem for them.
Gao Yingqing masked her face, holding a sharp blade in her hand, led a group of female tigers to rush in front, and the other hundred horsemen were in charge of breaking off under the command of Huang Xuchang and Xu Liang, they just rushed to the front yard of the dilapidated mansion, and they were blocked by a group of people, one of them asked angrily: "You are dressed like this, who are you planning to rob?" ”
Hearing that familiar voice, Gao Ying was stunned, and took a few steps forward by the faint moonlight to take a closer look, Gao Ying couldn't help but shout: "Captain Yang!" You've been released? ”
……
When the sun on the horizon of the sky spewed out a brilliant morning glow, dyeing the entire sky red, more than 20 fast horses were galloping lightly on the mountain trail to Zhushan County.
The green leaves of the weeds shimmer with sparkling dewdrops. Because of the kicking of the horses' hooves and the trembling of the ground, the crystal dew either splashed out or rolled down slowly, and splashed into the dust one by one.
Yang Fan and the others went out of the city overnight, and at dawn, they had already rushed nearly half of the distance and were about to arrive in Zhushan County.
In Fangling County Prison, the cell door opened, and an old man dragged a rice bucket and walked in weakly.
He knocked on the rice bucket and just wanted to shout "open the meal". When I suddenly saw the situation in prison, I couldn't help but be a little stunned.
Their cell here was not very large, there were only a few cells in total, and the situation was clearly visible through the fence, and the cell on the right was full of six people last night. Why is it so empty now?
As soon as the couple in the innermost cell saw someone coming in, they immediately shouted, "Cell boss." Something happened. Something's wrong! ”
The old man hurriedly put down the rice bucket and rushed over to ask, "What's wrong?" What about the people in the cell next to them? ”
The two unkempt prisoners told him what they were talking about, and the old jailer, who was walking half-dead, was so shocked that he sprang out as if to report to the cell boss.
In less than half an hour, the county order, the county officer, the chief bookkeeper, the county lieutenant, the squad leader, and the cell leader ....... Suddenly, a large group of people came, and the county magistrate He Haijiao thought that the light in the prison was dim, and specially asked a few jailers to light torches and carefully investigate the cell where six prisoners were originally held for a long time.
There are two large footprints on the ground. Five feet long and three inches deep, the shorter ones could lie in it and sleep in a bed.
Heels, soles, toes...... It is clearly recognizable, as if a giant once had a foothold here.
He Xian Ling squatted on the ground, looked at it carefully for a long time, and got up and said to the two prisoners: "Tell me carefully, what was the situation last night?" ”
The two prisoners were both merchants, and they had already practiced with one face and two lips, and they had just rehearsed again in front of the jailer, so they did not panic.
It was still the talkative merchant who opened his mouth and said to He County: "Last night, the two of us were sleeping soundly, and suddenly felt a golden light, piercing our eyes, and woke up involuntarily. When I opened my eyes, I saw a gold-armored god, three feet tall, ten girths wide, holding a golden pestle, and his whole body was shining.
That's right, it's the Golden Armor Godman! Yes, the golden-armored god-man was standing in that position, and the six prisoners in this cell were all prostrated at the god-man's feet, as well-behaved as a cat. My two brothers believed in my Buddha the most, and when they saw that the god was the same as Vedata, they quickly knelt down and chanted Amitabha! ”
The other slowly interjected a sentence and said: "The man of God did not speak, and a voice like a bell sounded in our hearts, and the man of God said, although we have committed a crime, but we are devout to the Buddha and have the heart to repent, and my Buddha sees it in my eyes, and specially sends a man of God to enlighten it!" ”
"Oh?"
He Haijiao blinked, as if he believed it or not. He didn't know if there was a real auspicious rui in the world, but as a beneficiary of Xiangrui, he knew very well that the auspicious rui he had made at the beginning was fake.
He stayed in the hot spring soup for many years, and accidentally noticed that the parts of the fruit that were exposed to sunlight and those that were blocked by other things for a long time would form a completely different color.
At that time, it was the most frequent time for auspiciousness in all parts of the world, so he moved his mind, cut the word "long live" with black paper and pasted it on the golden peach, and when the golden peach was ripe, he removed the paper mold, and sure enough, two words appeared.
It was by this means that he was able to release a county magistrate, and today he heard these two prisoners talk like a lotus, and of course he did not believe in this miracle in his heart.
He Haijiao asked, "What about the six people?" ”
The prisoner followed Yang Fan's words to teach him: "Those six prisoners witnessed miracles with their own eyes, were influenced by the Buddha, and were willing to practice with the great god Veda, so they were taken away by the gods. ”
The corners of He Haijiao's mouth twitched twice, and then asked, "Then why did you let go of such a good opportunity?" ”
The prisoner sighed and said, "The two of us have a father and a mother, a wife and a son, and the fate of the earth is not over, and the man of God said that we will be released soon, if we sincerely wish to the Buddha, as long as we go home and fulfill our filial piety to our parents and our responsibilities to our wives, we will one day get the right results." ”
He Haijiao's eyes were cold, and he said, "Really? If you lie, you will destroy the Nine Tribes! ”
The two of them immediately swore and swore to reassure, He Haijiao pinched his chin and thought about it again, turned around and squatted down beside the giant's footprints, took a closer look again, and looked up at the skylight above the cell, and a strange touch swept through his eyes.
Seeing him stand up, Shu Chen, the chief bookkeeper, hurriedly came to him and said in a low voice: "Ming Mansion, the lower officials think this matter is ......."
He Haijiao raised his hand, stopped his voice, and said in a subdued tone: "There is no doubt that this is an auspicious rui!" This is because my Holy Son of Heaven exercises benevolent government, so the heavens have sent auspicious fortunes! This auspicious rui appeared in my Fangling County because my Fangling County is honest and honest in governance, and this matter needs to be reported to the Son of Heaven! ”
"Yes, yes, yes!" Shu Shushu stepped aside in amusement.
He Haijiao turned his head to look at the two prisoners, and said: "The Son of Heaven once issued an edict, if there is an auspicious report in various places, the local government shall not conceal or block it for any reason, and the person who finds the auspicious rui must be immediately sent to the capital, whether the auspicious rui is true or not, will be screened by the imperial court, and the local officials who find the auspicious rui must send personnel to escort them, and those who find auspicious rui will stay in the museum along the way, and they will be treated according to the five officials." ”
What He Haijiao said is true, Wu Zetian did make such a holy decree, although she has ascended the throne later, and she is a little tired of frequent auspicious reports, but this decree has not been canceled.
When He Haijiao said this, he paused slightly, and said in an aggravated tone: "Hehe, as long as what you two say is true, then you will be blessed......
The two merchants hurriedly swore another gamble, and assured that what they said was true. He Haijiao nodded with satisfaction, turned his head and ordered: "Seal the prison and wait for the Beijing to send someone to investigate." These two people who found auspiciousness were sent to the hall first, and the official will arrange for someone to send them to the capital as soon as possible! ”
The county magistrates have all said so, and naturally no one in the officials dares to say anything uninterestingly, and only the current one is right.
He Haijiao left the cell, and as soon as he returned to the county yahou house, he immediately sent someone to summon his brother-in-law, Lin Er, and whispered to him: "Find a few hard-mouthed craftsmen, and put a few layers of bricks on the ventilation hole above the cell to make it smaller, otherwise when someone comes to the capital, they will find that our prison system is not in accordance with the rules, and they will inevitably be reprimanded!" ”
Lin Bantou knew what was going on, so he hurriedly agreed and hurried to make arrangements.

When Yang Fan visited Fangling County, he already had a general understanding of Zhushan County.
Zhushan County is more than 140 miles away from Fangling County, famous because of Huangzhuling, Huangzhuling is in the north of Huangzhu County, and the bamboo color on the mountain is yellow, so it is named. Li Xian, the king of Luling, lived on the Huangzhu Ridge, and the surrounding area of the Bamboo Ridge was listed as a forbidden place, and ordinary people and hunters were not allowed to set foot in this mountain, and it was the residence of military households around the mountain.
Because of the protracted care of King Luling, the families of these military households have been taken over, and these military households have settled here on the imperial grain, and it has been fifteen or sixteen years so far, which can be regarded as taking root here.
More than ten miles below Huangzhuling, there is a Huangzhu Town, Yang Fan decided to settle in Huangzhu Town first, and after further understanding the situation in Huangzhuling, he first got in touch with the King of Luling who was trapped in the mountain, and then decided on the action strategy.
However, in this era, the population movement was not large, and now without the help of that circus as a cover, even if more than a dozen of their stout men suddenly appeared in the town, it was enough to attract attention, not to mention that there were many young women, so Yang Fan decided to let them split up and live in the villages around Huangzhu Town.
In this era, the information is not smooth, these people are dressed as husband and wife or brothers and sisters to live in various villages, and the news cannot be summarized in time to the town or the garrison generals on the mountain will not be noticeable, and when the town's Lizheng or the mountain guards find out the suspicions, they are afraid that they have already taken the king of Luling and left.
Therefore, when Yang Fan was about to arrive in Huangzhu Town, he agreed with them on the contact method and location, and then asked them to go down to different forks in the road and go straight to the countryside around Huangzhu Town, while he and Gu Zhuting went directly to Huangzhu Town under Huangzhu Ridge!
