515. Money is hard to buy mourning
I took a sip of tea and was about to speak, when suddenly I heard a tinkling in my ears, I thought it was a system sound, but unexpectedly, it seemed to be a bell sound.
I also wondered, is it a horse? Generally, this bell is hung in front of the carriage, which is also human nature.
But the bell was brittle and ringing, not at all the ordinary horse-hung luan, and if it was a horse-hung luan, it should be accompanied by the sound of horses' hooves, but now it is not.
So I put down the teacup and looked into the distance, and there was a hideous-looking villain, who looked different from normal people, and had a face full of hair, which looked very terrifying!
"Li Kui?" I said in surprise.
Guo Jia smiled: "This is not closed at night!" ”
"Don't take it at night?"
"Eight hundred miles expedited." Guo Jia said lightly, "Usually people who are in a hurry for 800 miles are called not to collect at night, that is to say, they deliver important official documents, and they are all lined up with a fast foot, who is in a hurry during the day and at night." ”
After asking carefully, I learned the ins and outs, and it turned out that this had to involve the emergency military intelligence express.
Now the transmission relies on the post station, there is a post station every 20 miles, once the official document of the demand transmission is marked with the words "immediately fly", according to the rules of the request 300 miles per day, in case of emergency, 400 miles per day, 600 miles, the fastest up to 800 miles.
When sending emergency documents, each post station uses fast horses, so that although it is not a thousand miles of horses, but each horse is desperate to run, and it can also be a thousand miles a day, "six hundred miles urgent, eight hundred miles urgent" is used to indicate the level of urgency of the situation.
Then sometimes if the horses are too late, they have to run people, of course, the speed of people running is not fast, but extremely strong, in the process of transmitting military information, once someone stands in the way, even if it is the emperor's son, he is hit and killed, then he deserves it!
This is a rule since ancient times, military intelligence express, related to a country's national fortune and national lineage!
People who retire in various posts are generally called "post ding", "post husband", or "post pawn" and "post subordinate".
Judging from the title, their status is relatively low, and the post men on the land road are also suffering, they are under the scorching sun, in the cold winter, in the pouring rain, without exception, they have to carry a paper bag, hurriedly galloping on the post road.
And now Li Kui is playing the identity of Yiding, running wildly all the way, wearing a red pepper-like hat on his head, and the red felt on his head is upside down to his forehead, and he is thrown on both sides.
The hat strangled Li Kui's thick forehead and chin, and the tips on his head were still played, looking similar to Western clowns.
Combined with that demonic face, it looks as scary as a ghost from hell.
The surrounding people, seeing Li Kui's appearance, one by one, as if a mouse saw a cat, they dodged one after another, you must know that the person who was killed by the "night does not collect", the death was in vain, and he could not pay a penny, and even if something went wrong with the military situation, the whole family would have to be implicated.
People saw Li Kui pretending to be a night and dodged one after another, and their expressions were extremely exciting, which made people stunned and dumbfounded!
Li Kui ran quickly, wearing green soap, with leggings under his legs, which were sturdy, exposing the tendons and lines on his legs.
He also carried a letter basket on his back, and one hand was tightly attached, revealing a few chicken feathers, which were wild pheasant tail feathers, long, very obvious, and the color was strangely fresh, but there were three of them.
I hurriedly said: "Strategist, this chicken feather is called ** Mao Urgent Letter, and the two chicken feathers are called Baili Urgent, what do these three mean?" ”
The military advisor smiled slightly: "Three roots are life-and-death emergency military affairs, or Your Majesty's personal order!" ”
I clapped my hands: "Okay, worthy of being a military advisor, such a clever plan!" ”
"Run fast, don't collect at night, and don't rest at night, tsk, Li Kui won't deal with people verbally, but as long as he has this outfit and this evil face, who dares to stand in his way?!" The eldest brother also praised him.
On Li Kui's elbows, ankles and body, there were ten bells hung, so all the way over, the bells rang.
When ordinary people see it, they will generally dodge, unless it is a cage.
After asking Guo Jia, I found out that Li Kui was no longer in the tea pavilion, but he was sweating behind the tea pavilion, his face was smeared with mud, and then he ran in place and sweated profusely.
Surprisingly, after Li Kui ran in, the two guards immediately hid to the side, stretched out their heads to look, and had no intention of blocking them.
The young guy laughed: "Thanks to our fast hiding, we can't afford to mess with this character!" If this really hits, it will kill you in vain! ”
The old guy muttered: "If you do this, he won't be better there!" Running at such a speed, sooner or later the blood will spurt out of the cavity! ”
The little guy stretched out his head and glanced at it again: "People go away!" Brother, you're right, it's better to be our guards, down-to-earth, come here in the morning to stand for a while, and go home in the evening, there are mother-in-law and hot kang heads at home, as well as silver, how down-to-earth, how real, and relaxed! ”
The old guy rarely responded, and said with a smile: "Do it well, when you made a living, your father begged me, and I agreed!" ”
"Yes, you are a senior, I will invite you to eat and drink when I go back!" The little guy laughed.
The old and the young, look happy.
And on my side, there are still a few people who haven't entered, including the military advisor, the eldest brother, and me and Jin Lian.
I was about to go out, but then my eldest brother stood up and walked straight over.
I don't know where the eldest brother found a plain clothes, he was wearing plain clothes, holding a mourning stick, and walked all the way.
The rest of us were the three who followed.
I saw the eldest brother enter the city gate, and immediately hugged the old guy and cried, the eldest brother was choked up and speechless, if I didn't know the truth, I really thought that my father had gone.
Of course, my dad is gone here, at least I don't have any impressions.
"Uncle, my father is ...... Let's go! As he spoke, the eldest brother burst into tears.
The old man was stunned, and suddenly he thought of something, and the old man also cried: "Hey, young man, hurry up, get up...... What's going on, how can you just leave...... I've got to go, I'm ...... This ......"
Lin Chong knelt on the ground, kowtowed three times, and wiped his tears while crying.
As the old saying goes, filial piety is full of streets, which is the traditional virtue of the Chinese nation.
The filial son wears linen and filial piety, as long as he sees an acquaintance, he goes to kowtow to report the funeral.
It doesn't matter if the other party is a master or a boy, you have to kowtow.
The eldest brother cried, "Look at this...... Say no, it's gone, just these two days......"
"Alas, we were drinking together two days ago, why ...... now" The old man stomped his feet and cried as he hugged the wall pillar.
"Uncle, I went in first when I was born late, and there are several more!"
"Go, go......" said the old man with a wave of his hand.
The little guy here looked puzzled: "Uncle, who is leaving?" ”
"Huh?" The old man froze, and didn't react for a while, "yes, who is leaving?" ”
He hurriedly ran out and shouted at my brother's back, "Hey, who's gone!?" ”
The eldest brother had long since disappeared, and the old man came back, still crying as he walked: "Who, who else can it be, reporting my funeral, maybe it is my old brother's son...... I think that at the beginning, when I was your age, there were many brothers in the barracks, and now there are several of my old buddies, alas...... A few days ago, a few old buddies were chatting and eating together......"
As he spoke, the old man began to cry again: "Our brothers said that no matter who leaves, everyone else will go to see it off...... It's hard to buy a mourning before the soul with money, I ...... I really don't feel good about it......"
The little guy began to persuade, and all kinds of good things were said.
And outside the door, I said to Guo Jia: "This is definitely not my eldest brother's idea, Feng Xiao, it's your attention......"
Feng Xiao didn't speak, shaking the folding fan as if thinking about his own business, and after a long time he said, "It's my turn." ”
