Chapter 32: This Bandit Is Not Ordinary
"That, can you let me take a look!" Chen Hao was also embarrassed to say that he hadn't read Lao Mozi's "The Legend of the World", so he could only make excuses: "I used to read "The Legend of the World" when I was a child, but when I grew up and started business, I forgot about it. ”
"I brought a copy with me, Brother Chen Hao, you can take a look. ”
Looking at "The Legend of the World", Chen Hao was a little speechless, isn't this the "Analects" of the earth. I have three provinces and three bodies, and friends from afar can be found from here.
If Confucianism and Taoism in this world say that it has nothing to do with the earth, Chen Hao really doesn't believe it at all.
"Chaoge, do you know who wrote this "Legend of the World"?"
Chao Ge shook his head and replied honestly: "I don't know! Anyway, "World Talk" has been circulating in this world for a long time, and it seems that "World Talk" has existed in this world since the beginning. ”
Chen Hao couldn't ask anything at first glance, so he could only wait for the Confucianism and Taoism Conference to see it. Let's see if we can find a clue back to Earth.
The carriage had gone for a while and then stopped.
Chen Hao was taking a nap, leaned forward suddenly, and almost hit the beam: "Coachman, what's the matter?"
"This man, suddenly a bunch of masked bandits appeared in the way. They were all armed with weapons and fierce eyes. ”
This is an official road, how can there be robbers, Chao Ge is a little afraid to catch Chen Hao: "Brother Chen Hao, this is an official road, how can there be robbers?"
"Don't panic, I'll take a look......"
Chen Hao is not a hero, but he has a system, although the system is a cheat, but it will never let him die.
When Chen Hao's feet fell to the ground, his eyes scanned the surroundings, looking at a group of people with fierce eyes, full of flesh, speaking in a flowing manner, holding a big knife in his hand and waving back and forth: "Hand over the money to buy the road." ”
"How much?" Since it is for wealth, it is easy to do, and when he goes out, he prepares a lot of silver taels.
"One hundred thousand taels of gold!"
The bandit leader swept his eyes and didn't give Chen Hao a chance to refuse: "Take the money to eliminate the disaster!"
Disaster ...... Eliminate the disaster, your sister, Chen Hao didn't have so much gold on him at all, even if he had it, he wouldn't give it.
A bandit leader who dares to ask for 100,000 taels of gold can't do anything.
"No money!" Chen Hao also let go, he wanted to see what other tricks they had.
The bandit leader seemed to have known Chen Hao's answer for a long time, and muttered: "I don't have any money, please go to the cottage with me, and then write a letter to your family, so that they must prepare the silver two ransoms within a month, otherwise it will be bad to miss this year's recommendation." ”
"Even if you kill us, our family won't be able to raise that much money. Chen Hao said bluntly.
"Then raise as much as you want!"
The bandit leader ordered: "Come, bring out the people inside." ”
Chao Ge was pulled out by a bandit, and when he saw Chen Hao standing there, he was a little scared: "Brother Chen Hao......"
"Isn't it just going to the cottage for a few days, it's okay to ......" Chen Hao's calm face made the bandit leader pay some attention: "You are different from other people who participated in the recommendation, you are not afraid!"
Afraid, what is there to be afraid of, he has a system, the system is in hand, where can he go in this world: "Chaoge, follow me,. ”
Chao Ge nodded, and grabbed Chen Hao's clothes tightly with both hands, for fear that he would be left behind.
The bandits searched out all the valuable things on Chao Ge or Chen Hao, Chao Ge looked at the ten taels of gold in the bandit's hands, which was all entangled by him, and it was taken away.
Watching the bandit walk away, Chao Ge gritted his teeth, his heart hurting.
Chen Hao, Chao Ge, and the coachman followed the bandits up the mountain.
The mountain has a well-known name, Longhu Mountain, three dragons flying and phoenix dancing, falling on the stone tablet in front of the mountain.
Chao Ge looked at it and whispered: "Strange!"
This voice attracted the attention of the bandits next to him: "What nonsense, let me go!" After speaking, he kicked Chao Ge fiercely.
"Ahh
Chao Ge looked at Chen Hao, and then looked at the fierce bandits around him, looking like he wanted to say but didn't want to say.
It feels as if there are countless hot pot ants lying on their stomachs in my heart.
Chen Hao glanced at Chao Ge and shook his head slightly.
Chao Ge immediately understood that now was not the time to speak, so he could only keep his head down and continue to follow the bandits.
They didn't know how long they had walked, and finally came to a cottage, Chen Hao and others were escorted to the dungeon, Chen Hao's eyes swept away, and found that there were more than 20 literati dressed as young scholars who were locked up in it.
When those people saw the bandits coming in, the cries rang out in their ears: "Can you spare us......
Chen Hao felt a little harsh, walked a few steps quickly, and was taken by those bandits to a no-man's cell.
Chaoge also came in, and as for the coachman, he was arranged to feed the horses in the stable.
As soon as he entered the cell, Chao Ge was a little frightened, looking at the dry grass spread on the ground, and from time to time rats and cockroaches passed by, and there was actually a skull in the corner of the cell.
I don't know how many years the skull is gloomy, there is actually a spider in the black eye socket, Chao Ge was so frightened that he hid behind Chen Hao, he saw a skull for the first time in his life.
"If you're afraid, don't look at it!" Chen Hao blocked Chao Ge's gaze: "It's good not to look at it." ”
"Brother Chen Hao, am I very timid!"
Chao Ge was a little crying, he was a Tang and Tang man, but when he saw the skull, he was actually scared like this.
"Normal, you are all not out of the door, you don't ask questions, you read poetry and books every day, and you are like children in this world. ”
"Brother Chen Hao, I want to tell you something, I remember hearing passers-by on the road say that in order to ensure that this recommendation can be held smoothly, the government has sent troops to suppress bandits. ”
"This Dragon and Tiger Mountain, close to the official road, is the most unlikely place for bandits. How can there be bandits?"
"Have you noticed that all the kidnappings here are the students who participated in the Amagi Recommendation this year, what ......do you think would happen if they were locked up here for a few months?"
Chao Ge seemed to think of something, and shook his head one after another: "How come, the bandits said that they just wanted money!"
"Innocent!"
If you want money, how can you let others hand over 100,000 taels of gold, 100,000 taels of gold, a poor scholar, even if you kill them, you can't get it.
Chen Hao felt that it was wrong from the beginning when the bandit leader opened his mouth to ask for ten taels of gold.
These students who are thousands of miles away and now dream of their dreams, where will they have 100,000 taels of gold on their bodies, even if they write to inform their families, how can they come and go for a month.
Those bandits committed crimes under the nose of Tiancheng, how could they let these people go out alive to report to the officials.
Moreover, there is one point that Chen Hao is very puzzled, more than 20 students disappeared on the way to Tiancheng, and the official mansion seems to have no movement at all.
It's weird......
Forget it, I don't want to understand the place, now it's better to think about how to get out of trouble!
