Bajiang County is very small, although it is the seat of a state, but there are few decent buildings in the city that are in tatters, the people under the rule of Manzhou are mainly Xie Man, that is, the Miao people of later generations, most of them are scattered to live in various mountains, and the location of its state and county is not very useful, so it is naturally difficult to develop into a big city and a big fu.

However, the mansion of the Song family is still worthy of their identity as the first family in Bajiang, which is a large mansion covering a wide area, with halls and pavilions, grandiose and magnificent, quite magnificent. The front yard of the mansion is the Assassin Mansion and the County Yamen, and the back yard is where the Song clan lived.

Song Chumeng and Song Wanyou took the three messengers into the house to settle down, and set up a banquet to entertain them, and asked them sideways during the banquet, only to know that the intentions of the three messengers were very different from Liu Guangye, and there was a faint momentum of opposing Liu Guangye.

It's just that after thinking about it, they became cautious again, they weren't sure whether these people were really coming to trouble Liu Guangye or pretending, and this kind of thing of officials protecting each other was not a patent in the officialdom of Barbarian Prefecture, so the two of them didn't dare to speak out about Liu Guangye's various atrocities in Manzhou for a while.

Song Chumeng was cunning, so he boasted about his "great achievements" in Manzhou for Liu Guangye in an appreciative tone, and Sun Yuxuan's face sank when he heard it.

These three people are not cruel officials, Hu Yuanli has a sense of justice, Ma Qiao was originally born in Shengdou Xiaomin, although he is an officer now, he does not regard himself as an official eunuch, they can't accept this kind of indiscriminate killing of innocent civilians, although Sun Yuxuan has been an official of the Criminal Department since Zhang Chujin was the secretary of the Criminal Department, but he is also the same as them.

Sun Yuxuan is a scholar from a scholarly background, in short, he is a nerd, and he is a stubborn nerd, so although he has memorized a belly of books, he has always felt incapable of handling official affairs in the Criminal Department, which has earned him the nickname of "difficult to write".

Since Zhang Chujin and Zhou Xing, the Criminal Department has always prevailed in the style of harsh punishment and harsh laws. Sun Yuxuan is a rare honest person among this class of cool officials. His style is also incompatible with these cool officials. Fortunately, his position is somewhat similar to that of the archives of later generations, and his authority is not heavy, so no one has coveted his position.

Now that they are out of Beijing with Yang Fan, their position is already contrary to the Yushitai, and when they hear about the evil deeds committed by Liu Guangye, they are naturally particularly resistant. Song Chumeng looked at his face and determined that the three of them really did not agree with what Liu Guangye had done. Only then did he signal to his nephew, and Song Wanyou vomited bitterness to the three Qincha.

The crimes committed by Liu Guangye in Manzhou were drenched in blood, and it was difficult to write about them, and the three of them could only hear righteous indignation, Hu Yuanli took the case and shouted angrily: "It's a loss of conscience!" History of the Song Thorn. Where is this Liu Guangye now? ”

Song Chumeng sighed: "Liu Qin went to the countryside early in the morning with the native soldiers assigned to him by the Assassin History. He never had to be a beak in his affairs, and he didn't know which village he went to today. ”

Yang Fan hit the horse like flying, galloping on the mountain path, a wild grass poking out of the grass on the side of the road was scraped by the horse's legs, swayed sharply a few times, and before it stopped shaking, Yang Fan's figure had disappeared away from an arrow.

Horses are good horses. The body is strong and graceful. The muscles are full and well-developed, and the neck is smooth and delicate. The body is beautiful and streamlined, and the horse's hooves with a large bowl mouth are very powerful when it runs, but it looks very embarrassed now, and its four legs are covered with mud, and its whole body is steaming, like a steamer that has just been uncovered, and even the horse's mane is soaked with sweat.

"No, if you want to hurry, you can't reach it, and if you hurry like this, it will have to die of exhaustion, and it will have to rest for a while, and it is better to have a stream to drink and ...... horses."

Yang Fan was tired, and the whip that he had habitually pulled down stopped abruptly in mid-air.

Yang Fan waited for the Xun period and Zhezhu in Yaozhou, and finally waited for the two of them, along with a big ghost master of Wuman.

The ghost lord is a sorcerer who is the chief priest of a tribe, and in an ordinary small tribe, the ghost lord is concurrently served by the tribal leader, like the leader of the barbarian girl who gave her wolf tooth necklace to Yang Fan is also the ghost lord of the tribe. And a large tribe of more than 100,000 people like Wuman, who has long been separated from religion and state, has a special candidate for the sorcerer who serves as the chief priest of important events in the clan.

Meng Zhezhu brought the big ghost master of their tribe here, and he actually wanted to preside over it and form a brother of life and death with Yang Fan. Yang Fan readily agreed to Meng Zhezhu's request, so under the auspices of the big ghost master, the two held a simple and solemn worship ceremony, breaking arrows as an oath and forming brothers with different surnames.

At the grand bonfire dinner held for them that night, Yang Fan asked Xun Qi about all the contents of the holy decree that Wu Zetian gave Pei Huaigu.

Yang Fan finally knew why Wu Zetian was so deferential.

Yaozhou Wubai and Wu are reversed, Feng of Lingnan East Road is reversed, and the slang of Lingnan West Road is also about to move......

Wu Zetian is not a stupid person, maybe her suspicions are more serious, but no matter what she says, she will not believe that just by relying on those rogue people, who have the ability and can afford the price, they can persuade many ethnic minorities such as Wuman, Baiman, Tanuki, Xie Man and so on to unanimously support their rebellion.

Obviously, those people in Yushitai are used to being domineering in Beijing, even if the officials are the prime ministers of extremely popular ministers, as long as they fabricate a crime of rebellion, they can only let them slaughter, these cool officials have developed the mentality that there is no one in their eyes, and they don't take the barbarians in their eyes at all, and they are unscrupulous when they go to the place.

Most of the places where the prisoners were exiled were inhabited by barbarians, economically backward, fierce people, and lacked royal Taoism, and these cool officials ate well in the capital, but when they arrived in these places where even the imperial court could only use grace and power, they blindly pressed with force, which was bound to anger these barbarians and cause a strong backlash.

The rebellion played by the Yushitai can be regarded as "true" so far, but this rebellion is not a plan of the rogues, but it is precisely this group of cool officials who have contributed to it. Wu Zetian was angry and hateful, fearing that the situation would be out of control, so she issued an order to Pei Huaigu and ordered him to kill Huang Jingrong on the spot as needed, in order to calm the turmoil in Yaozhou.

On the other hand, she gave Yang Fan a secret edict, urging him to rush to the various roads where the officials of the Imperial History Terrace went as soon as possible, to stop the indiscriminate killing of innocents and provoke a civil uprising, and to grant him the right to change the situation, so that he could kill people by order. This holy decree is the secret decree that Sun Yuxuan took on his behalf.

At the same time, Wu Zetian also sent messengers to the imperial historians who were inspecting the various provinces, and severely reprimanded them, ordering them to immediately stop the killing and prevent the situation from further expanding. It's just that these cool officials go to various provinces, travel between the state capitals and counties, and sometimes go deep into the mountains and mountains to arrest the wanderers, and the guards are confined to various restrictions on safety and travel, which may not be conveyed in time.

Yang Fan learned the truth, and the next morning he said goodbye to Kaoru and Oritake, and came all the way to the east. Oritake provided him with two horses, which he rode in turn, and yesterday when he passed by a mountain range, it happened to be raining heavily, and the mountain road was dangerous, muddy and slippery, and a horse stumbled and fell into a mountain stream, and only this one was left.

If there is another problem with this horse, I am afraid that it will be even more problematic to hurry, seeing that the horse is exhausted, Yang Fan did not dare to urge again, so that the horse gradually slowed down the horse's speed, and when it galloped to the mountainside in front, a narrow mountain road was even more difficult to walk, and the trees and vines on both sides of the road almost buried this path, and it seemed that it would not take long for the occasional pedestrian to pass here.

Yang Fan turned over and dismounted, took the reins of the horse and waved the sheath to chop vines and branches all the way to open the way, and was moving forward, suddenly noticed something unusual, just stopped, a long shadow suddenly bounced in the grass in front of him, Yang Fan was taken aback, only to say that it was a long snake, lest the snake be poisonous, and slashed at the long shadow with a knife.

With a knife fell, the long shadow broke off with a sound, and fell back into the grass with a click, but Yang Fan Dingqing saw that it was a rope.

How could there be a stumbling block in such a deserted place?

Yang Fan immediately knew that something was wrong, he bowed his back, and he wanted to run back, but at this moment, the strength of his whole body seemed to be drained, his eyes were blurred for a while, and he raised his head and fell to the ground.

A few people slowly stood up in the bushes, with green scarves wrapped around their heads, wearing left green cloth jackets, and their lower bodies were hidden in the bushes and grass, and their faces were painted with a few colorful oil paints, looking like mountain spirits and wild monsters that suddenly emerged from the grass.

One of them, a middle-aged man with dark skin, was removing a blowpipe from his mouth.

Yang Fan fell on the grass path, with a thin needle stuck in his neck, and a few strands of red thread used for orientation on the end of the needle shook gently in the wind.

With such a hair-thin blow needle, even the most astute beast in the jungle could not be alerted even when it flew through the air, let alone Yang Fan, who was exhausted from galloping all the way and had been attracted by the tripping horse.

Several men in green clothes with animal patterns painted on their faces walked out of the grass, and the man who had just shot the blow arrow glanced down at Yang Fan, and then at his tired mount, frowned slightly, and said in brute words: "We seem to have caught the wrong person, this person came from afar, not like the spy of the dog!" ”

The other said fiercely: "Whatever, it's Han anyway." Now that you've been caught, you'll kill to pay for your life! ”

After speaking, he slowly pulled out the waist knife from his waist, this knife is not long, only one foot has two, such a knife is suitable for use in such a jungle, and the horizontal knife is useless in this kind of place. The blade is curved outward, with two blood grooves on each side of the blade, as well as two patterns of striated nail prints, the blade looks unusually sharp, and the handle is not long, and it is fixed as a handle with horns.

"Xie Feng, don't mess around!"

The blower rebuked him and commanded the other: "Roll over him!" ”

The man agreed, squatted down and rummaged over the unconscious Yang Fan, took out a bunch of things, and when he unfolded the holy decree, the blower couldn't help but be moved: "This yellow satin is painted with a dragon?" This is the Divine Decree! I've seen it, that dog Qincha brought such a thing, broke into our stockade and killed people indiscriminately, and even Song Tingshi didn't dare to care about him! ”

Xie Feng said angrily: "I just said that it was their people, and it was true." This man may have sent some harmful order to the dog, and I will kill him! ”

As Xie Feng spoke, the sharp knife in his hand stabbed Yang Fan fiercely in the chest, and this time the blower did not stop him!

P: In the early hours of the morning, I sincerely ask for monthly tickets and recommended tickets for support from all of you who are still fighting the front line of the Internet!
