(Recently, the wind of harmony has been very strong, and there are instructions above, beware of the candle...... Thanks to the generous rewards of book friends "My Heart Flying Weiwei", "shuiji820", and "Xu Mao"!)
Quack!
At dusk, twilight was four, and when I looked up, I saw a group of crows pressed by black, like a dark cloud moving very fast, flying all the way to the north. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info the latest chapter of the Holy Church
Ying Ning suddenly said: "Childe, these crows seem to be a little strange. ”
Because of the distance, Chen Jianchen didn't feel anything, and asked, "What's strange?"
Ying Ning was also a little uncertain, and shook her head: "I don't know, I just watched it just now, and there were some palpitations." "She has cultivated a golden pill, her Dao heart is quite stable, and she has a unique touch for unusual existences. To put it simply, the sixth sense comes out. Although it is not as good as those "professional" practitioners of divination calculations, it is still a good instinctive function.
Chen Jianchen's hand gently rubbed his chin, thoughtful.
Tudi Yingning's expression changed, and with a backhand from the blood sandalwood book, he took out the picture of "Eating Betel Nut Spring Palace", and said, "Sister Xiao Xie has something to say." ”
Unfolding the portrait, I saw the portrait figure sitting on the flat boat, the clothes half-undone, and the fragrant shoulders were exposed, which was certainly depicted very expressively—after all, the spirit is only a god, not a real person, a living person.
However, suddenly, there was a strange change in the portrait, and the flattering woman with affectionate eyebrows suddenly became dignified, and her body could still move, and she actually sat up straight.
In this way, it was as if the whole painting had come to life at once, and the woman in the painting was like an immortal, and she would walk down from the painting at any moment.
Immortal in the picture.
Chen Jianchen suddenly remembered such an allusion story.
The woman's whole posture and temperament have changed completely, and even the clothes on her body have been draped, and there is no trace of spring and light. Then her mouth moved, as if she was talking.
Chen Jianchen couldn't hear what the other party was saying, but Ying Ning listened very attentively - it was not yet night, and the yang energy was still in full bloom, but Xiao Xie couldn't show up casually, so as not to be corroded and hurt. The latest chapter of the Templar
After a while, after the unique conversation, Ying Ning rolled up the painting again and put it back in the book.
"Ying Ning, what did Xiao Xie say?"
Ying Ning looked solemn: "Childe, we may be in trouble." ”
Chen Jianchen frowned: "How do you say this?"
"Sister Xiao Xie said that those crows have a famous hall called Soul Hook Crow, which is refined by the notorious old demon of Montenegro with a unique method......"
Hearing that the matter involved the mysterious old demon of Montenegro, Chen Jianchen suddenly woke up his spirit.
"The old demon of Montenegro refines the soul hooking crows, and then sends them out to capture the yin soul, as well as some cultivators with relatively shallow mana, hook off the soul of the other party, and then send it back to the main altar of Montenegro for the old demon to dispose of, or eat it directly, or secretly make it into a puppet slave ......and so on."
Chen Jianchen raised his eyebrows: "So, that Black Mountain Old Demon has a special cultivation method, and he can even directly devour the Yin Soul to strengthen his cultivation?"
Ying Ning nodded: "It should be like this." ”
Chen Jianchen fell into deep thought-the old demon of Montenegro is the god of Montenegro, of course, it is under the jurisdiction of Yin Si, but that Montenegro is a big mountain located at the junction of Jiangzhou and Zhezhou, strictly speaking, it belongs to the subordinates of Jiangzhou Yin. In this way, Wang Chenghuang must be in the know, and when necessary, he may be able to ask him about the situation.
——Since "joining forces" to become a military judge, Wang Chenghuang has been included in his own camp, his identity and position are very different, and he will never dare to hide anything when asked him.
Ying Ning said again: "Sister Xiao Xie also said that her good sister, a female ghost named 'Qiu Rong', was captured by the soul crow and imprisoned in Montenegro, and the old demon of Montenegro said that she would be accepted as a ghost concubine. ”
If a person has a wife and a concubine, there will be ghosts as well. It's just that ghosts have no substance, they lack yang energy from their birth, and they can't have children or anything like that. The so-called ghost concubines, similar to slaves, often have to be tortured by their masters, life is better than death, and ghosts can't live in peace.
Chen Jianchen asked, "Xiao Xie, but please help save that Qiu Rong?"
Ying Ning hummed: "But I didn't promise just now." The latest chapter of the Holy Church" looked at Chen Jianchen with his eyes in full swing.
Chen Jianchen smiled and said, "Ying Ning, what do you think?"
"This mountain god does all kinds of evil, does evil, and is a hegemon, so it stands to reason that we should stand up and cut off a tyrant for the place; ”
She didn't want Childe to be caught in a dangerous maelstrom.
Chen Jianchen said: "I will be measured in this." At the moment, he told him some of the things he had to do with Wang Chenghuang.
After hearing this, Ying Ning cheered: "Childe, so you and Wang Chenghuang are good friends, or you can go and talk to him directly, since he is Chenghuang and is in charge of the affairs of Yin Si and a state, the old demon of Montenegro is also his subordinate, and he can easily punish him." ”
Chen Jianchen said: "That's what I mean. "There is Wang Chenghuang who came forward to suppress and govern the old demon of Montenegro, which is the most ideal way to deal with it, and he doesn't have to take action himself, there is no flaw.
But is it really that simple?
As soon as the thought turned, another layer of worry swept up.
...... Ignore this layer for now, and see Wang Chenghuang at night.
Sparkling!
At this moment, from another fork in the official road, there was the sound of horse-drawn carriages rolling on the road, which converged into a large area, and by listening to it alone, it was already possible to hear a queue of at least dozens of cars.
A short walk ahead, the eyes suddenly opened up, the face of the convoy appeared in the eyes without concealment, one after another, winding into a long snake formation, it seems, I don't know how many cars came one after another, looking at the direction they were driving, they were also going north to the capital.
One car after another, neither a horse-drawn carriage carrying passengers nor a wagon pulling goods, but a prisoner's cart!
Hundreds of prisoner cars, mighty and mighty, look like a kind of spiritual shock.
These prison carts, all of which are single-horsepowered, are pulled behind three prison cages, each of which holds a prisoner in white prison clothes, all of whom are chained and flailed, with scattered shawls and blood stains everywhere, and they have obviously undergone a light punishment.
There were three prisoners in a prisoner cart, so there were more than 300 in such a large procession.
Chen Jianchen couldn't help but gasp: Who are they? Why have all of them become prisoners? Or, where is there a shocking case going on in this vicinity, and even so many prisoners who have to be escorted to the north all at once?
You must know that ordinary prisoners are dealt with on the spot.
Looking at the officers and soldiers escorted again, there were more than ten black-shirted guards among them, riding high-headed horses with long leather whips on their fingers......
The huge procession of prisoner cars turned up, and the passers-by who were sparse on the official road hurriedly hid on the side of the road, not even daring to look up, and at the same time, they did not dare to walk on foot again, and they looked cautious and did not dare to breathe, for fear that if they walked around, they would be identified by the officers and soldiers as having fled with a weak heart or something, and at that time, it would be miserable.
Chen Jianchen and Ying Ning also stepped aside.
"You, look up!"
Suddenly, there was a burst of shouting, and two black-shirted guards came to Chen Jianchen on horseback and shouted arrogantly.
As soon as Chen Jianchen raised his head, he met four cold gazes like poisonous snakes.
Whoa!
One of the blackshirts pulled out a large stack of thick portraits from his bosom, and the other asked, "Where did you come from, a scholar, and where are you going?"
Chen Jianchen endured his anger and said, "Under Chen Jianchen, he is a student who went to the capital Guozijian from Jiangzhou Minghua Academy to study. ”
The black-shirted guard was obviously stunned, and his tone was calm: "Is there a road guide?"
Chen Jianchen took out the road guide book from the book, and the black-shirted guard handed it to him after checking it, and said with a fist: "The duty is in the body, and I am disturbed." ”
After a pause, he said to his companions beside him: "Old Wu, don't turn over the image, let's go." ”
The old Wu was a little frustrated and put the large stack of portraits back into his arms, and muttered: "It's a pity that I ...... a hundred yuan of money."
The prisoner wagons were huge and the wheels were sparkling, and it took about an hour or so to slowly move away, and when it was already dark, the officers and men who had decompressed the pressure lit torches, as if they were going to rush to the night.
When the convoy was far away, the pedestrians standing on the side of the road exhaled with relief and hurried back to their respective homes. Chen Jianchen suddenly grabbed an old man and asked, "This old man, Xiao Sheng wants to ask you, who are those prisoners?
The old man was dressed plainly, his forehead was full of wrinkles, he glanced at Chen Jianchen, and said: "They are the same as Gongzi, they are all scholars, I heard that there are several articles and poems in it, but isn't it because they violated the river crab law......
At this point, he suddenly thought of something terrible, as if he had been bitten by a poisonous snake, turned around and ran, as if there was a fierce ghost chasing him behind him.
Reader, Lexicon?
Although the information revealed by the old man was extremely thin and limited, Chen Jianchen suddenly became enlightened and had already guessed a rough idea - since the promulgation of the "Writing Law", in a short period of time, many literary prisons have been set off in various state capitals, and many scholars have been imprisoned or even beaten to death. ”
Among them, the old master Liu of Minghua Academy was brutally murdered, and Chen Jianchen was furious at that time, and he succeeded in one fell swoop. However, all the things I have seen with my own eyes before are not as impactful as the more than 100 prisoner cars that appear in front of me now.
Ying Ning asked inexplicably: "Childe, why are there people arresting scholars everywhere now? Don't they all say that all things are inferior, but only those who read are high?"
Chen Jianchen shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Because the emperor doesn't like to hear some words, he doesn't like to see some words." ”
Ying Ning's eyes widened: "It's that simple?"
Chen Jianchen nodded: "It's as simple as that." ”
"Hmph, just because of the problem of speaking and writing, and casually convicting people, this emperor is definitely not a good emperor. ”
The little fox was angry, and as for the disobedient words, she didn't care.
Chen Jianchen couldn't care about it, but now is not the time to talk about this, let's find a stable place to spend the night first, and find Wang Chenghuang to understand the situation.
