Chapter Twenty-Four: Old News of White Throat
The little two looked left and right, and his voice was softer.
"It's been a long time since anyone has seen General Shen go into battle to command," Xiao Er said, "At the beginning of this year, someone heard that it was the gold thief who invited a master to do a trick and captured General Shen's Yuan Shen——"
Mu Cheng smiled again, "Do you believe this kind of thing? ”
"Guest officer, it's one thing to believe it or not, but it's always the truth that General Shen doesn't come out behind closed doors, right?" The little second frowned and said solemnly, "Thanks to the fact that there is a Jian'an River in the north of our Jiangzhou, otherwise when Jianxi was forty-five years old, I wouldn't know what the situation was." ”
Before Xiao Er's voice fell, the proprietress over there had already screamed, and after a few clicks, she twisted Xiao Er's ears and went back.
On the road again, Li Yiru looked a little uneasy, he rode on his horse, looked at Bai Ling on the left, and then looked at Mu Cheng on the right.
"That little er's words just now sound weird."
"It's all hearsay, and it's not to be believed." Mu Cheng turned around and saw Li Yiru's brows tightly locked, and couldn't help but smile, "This is scared?" ”
"What scares the guts, how can the frightening the guts!" Li Yiru puffed out his chest, "I am...... I think that if the north is so dangerous, then we have to prepare well in Jiangzhou! Don't you fight unprepared battles...... Songqing, don't you say? Songqing? ”
Bai Ling came back to his senses, "What? ”
Li Yiru repeated Fang Cai's words again, and Mu Cheng also looked at it, "What do you want?" ”
"Hey, it's nothing," Bai Ling shook his head, "just in a daze...... After crossing Jiangzhou, will you go north to the boundary of Zhuozhou? ”
"yes." Li Yiru nodded.
"General Shen should have been stationed in Zhuozhou Mansion during this time," Bai Ling said softly, "Whether what Xiao Er said is the truth or not, we will know when the time comes." ”
Bai Ling looked at the road ahead, since she left the tea shop, she had been thinking about Shen Jichuan.
I haven't seen him for a long time, and I don't know what kind of scene General Shen is like now......
Not far away, the city gate of Jiangzhou is getting closer.
There was a long queue outside the city gate waiting to enter the city for inspection, and the three of them dismounted and walked together. For the sake of safety, several people's road guides were kept by Mu Cheng, and every time he arrived at the city gate, Mu Cheng walked in front, like a parent traveling with his juniors.
The walls of Jiangzhou Mansion look much taller and thicker than those of Huizhou Mansion, and today the walls are still under repair, and when you get closer, you can hear the sound of hammers pounding.
As soon as Bai Ling heard this, he looked at Li Yiru with some concern—but the young man didn't seem to be very affected this time, and he was looking around with curiosity.
Although the road conditions here are far inferior to those of the Huizhou Mansion, the soldiers standing at the gate of the city are much more majestic than the ones on the Huizhou Mansion.
"It's worthy of Jiangzhou Mansion," Li Yiru couldn't help muttering, "in the end, it's the place where the war was fought." ”
The team moved forward slowly.
As it approached noon, the sun began to burn overhead.
"Like you still have water in your water bladder?" Bai Ling wiped the sweat from his forehead, and turned to look at Li Yiru behind him, "I forgot to ask Xiao Er to fill my water bladder just now......"
"Ah, there is." Li Yiru easily took his water bladder from the horse's back and threw it to Bai Ling in front.
He looked ahead and noticed again a pair of stone tablets standing on either side of the gate.
The pair of stone tablets, one on the left and one on the right, looked like they were about three or four people tall, shining golden in the sunlight, quite imposing.
It was far away, and the words on it were still unclear, but now it was closer, Li Yiru squinted his eyes and read the words on the stele softly.
As soon as he finished reading the first half of the sentence, Bai Ling, who was drinking water, suddenly coughed violently - Mu Cheng immediately felt a cold neck, and half of his back was wet by Bai Ling.
Li Yiru and Mu Cheng looked at Bai Ling at the same time.
Bai Ling clutched at his throat, already coughing and blushing.
“…… Are you alright? Mu Cheng hurriedly patted Bai Ling's back, "Can you choke like ......this when you drink water?" ”
Bai Ling couldn't speak, so he had to wave his hand, coughing while signaling that he was okay.
When her breath calmed down, she glared at Li Yiru, "...... You...... What did you just say? ”
Li Yiru pointed ahead at a loss.
Following the direction of his finger, Bai Ling finally saw the stone tablet at the gate of the city not far away, on which were written two columns of sentences that she was all too familiar with—
*******
Do you avoid it because of good or evil?
Bai Ling was stunned, and then laughed dumbly.
Mu Cheng also turned his head to look, "...... What's wrong with this word? ”
Bai Ling raised his sleeves and wiped the water on his face and neck, "It's not much...... I just think it'...... It sounds familiar. ”
"Does Songqing sound familiar?" Li Yiru listened, squinted his eyes for a while, and then said for a long time, "It doesn't seem to be written on it, and I don't know who said it." ”
Bai Ling held his forehead, who else could ......
Lin Zexu!
An old man on the side looked over here, "Is it the first time you have come to Jiangzhou?" ”
"Huh." Li Yiru nodded, and he asked with some curiosity, "How did the old man see it?" ”
The old man laughed, "Guess, even if it's not the first time for you to come, you definitely haven't been to Jiangzhou in the past few years." Otherwise, how could you not know the origin of these two stone tablets......"
Bai Ling was stunned, and hurriedly looked at the old man, "Please also ask the old man to give advice." ”
The old man touched his beard and looked in a good mood, "What to teach or not, you foreigners don't know, I'll tell you about it, old man......"
The old man's words quickly attracted the attention of the travelers around him—apparently many people in the vicinity were also coming to Jiangzhou for the first time.
"When it was the third year of Shengming, Jiangzhou made a 'white throat' here, you know?" The old man asked.
Li Yiru shook his head.
"White throat," the old man touched his neck, "Lock throat wind, have you heard of it?" ”
Seeing that Li Yiru and a few people nearby still shook their heads, Mu Cheng said softly, "In the third year of Shengming, when the epidemic in Jiangzhou, many people had a high fever and swollen throats, especially white spots near the throat, so it is called white entanglement and throat locking. ”
The old man gave a thumbs up, "Yes, this little brother is well-informed at first glance." ”
Mu Cheng didn't answer, but the corners of his mouth raised.
The old man said again, "This white throat, there have been a few times in Zhuozhou Mansion before, and it was passed from the remnants of the gold thief who defeated the army earlier, and the gold thief is cunning, and deliberately left some sick soldiers to be captured by our Zhou soldiers, and the result was passed into our Great Zhou."
"When I was in the third year of Shengming, I heard that the disease in Jiangzhou was brought in by the blue-robed bandits who secretly colluded with the gold thieves at that time."
