Chapter Ninety-Seven: Successfully Mixing Out of Luoyang City

I didn't hear Sima Yi agree, I saw Zhang Meng stretch out his hand and hugged Sima Yi out of the sedan chair, and then came to the coffin on the carriage, gently put Sima Yi into the coffin, and ordered: "Cover the coffin!" ”

When Boss Huang heard this, he instructed the helpers to fasten the large and heavy coffin lid to the mouth of the coffin.

At this time, Sima Shi spoke: "If it is so airtight, the people inside will suffocate to death!" ”

Zhang Meng listened, laughed, and replied: "It's still my son who is anxious, don't worry, Sima Gongzi." The bottom plate of the coffin has been made a wind tunnel in advance, and the old man can't suffocate it. ”

At this time, the sky was bright, Zhang Meng saw that everything was ready, and instructed everyone: "The family of the old man Sima, all come over and put on mourning clothes, and then follow the coffin carriage on the road, all the way to the north gate, before I go to Beibi Mountain, when I tell you to cry, everyone will cry, cry mother, don't cry Dad!" Remember? ”

Everyone remembered the answers in twos and threes, and then, Zhang Meng ordered: "Open the courtyard gate and go on the road!" ”

At this time, there were not many pedestrians on the street, and some of Sima Yi's family members mistakenly thought that Sima Yi was really dead, so they couldn't help but sobbing and wiping their tears, but they didn't dare to cry.

Zhang Meng didn't say much, just took Ma San'er to manage the funeral procession back and forth.

When passers-by along the way saw it, some of them wondered: "This family, the time of the funeral was chosen so early." ”

The funeral procession dragged on for half a mile, and when Zhang Meng saw it, he shouted in a low voice: "Speed up your pace and keep up!" ”

Look at the north gate of Luoyang City in front, at this time the city gate has been opened, the drawbridge has also been put down, the sentry Wei soldiers with weapons are looking at this side, Zhang Meng saw it, and whispered: "Cry, cry loudly, cry mother, don't cry father!" ”

Ordered here, Zhang Meng didn't know how he moved his feelings, or maybe he remembered his father and mother before he crossed over, I don't know how they live now, anyway, at this time, Zhang Meng's throat and eyes were bitter, his nose was sour, and the snot and tears flowed down, and he couldn't help but open his long mouth and cry first, and his father cried one by one.

Gao Ling in the back was also infected by the atmosphere at this time, and when she heard Zhang Meng's cry, she complained in her heart at first: "Look at you, Zhang Meng, is it like words?" It's not your father and mother who died, what are you crying about? Complaining about this is true, she remembered her father and mother before she crossed over: "Just a daughter like me, but she suddenly disappeared without a sound, and she will never go back, and I don't know how they are doing there?" Thinking of this, Gao Ling sobbed and cried, crying a few times and moving her true feelings, letting go of her throat and crying.

As soon as Zhang Meng and Gao Ling drove like this, all the dependents of Sima Yi in the entire funeral procession let out a loud cry of grief at the same timeΒ·Β·Β·Β·Β·Β· The Wei soldiers guarding the north gate of Luoyang City saw it, and they all gave way and let the funeral procession out of the city.

Originally, the official sedan chairs gave way to the funeral procession, and the sentinels at the city gate would not stop the interrogation at all. It's all because Zhang Meng was careful in advance, for fear of interrogation by the sentry, so he prepared in advance, if the sentry interrogated, he would use silver money to open the way, and when it really didn't work, he would use a knife and shoot to go out.

Looking at the scene in front of him, Zhang Meng stopped crying, led the horses, pretended to touch and wiped his tears, and in this way, he got out of the north gate of Luoyang without any danger.

After leaving the north gate of Luoyang, I walked more than a mile in the direction of Beibi Mountain, passed through a pine forest, and came to an official road running north-south.

At this time, Meng Da had already arranged more than a dozen carriages, and stopped on the side of the avenue to see Zhang Meng escorting the funeral procession over, Meng Da came over and muttered a few words to Zhang Meng.

I saw Zhang Meng stop, turned his face and instructed Boss Huang: "Boss Huang has worked hard all night, and the two shifts of drummers are also tired. Zhang Meng won't say much if I'm grateful, it's all here, after Boss Huang goes back, thank you for me Zhang Meng. ”

When Zhang Meng said this, he instructed Ma San'er to hold a large package, stretched out his hand and handed it to Boss Huang, saying, "This is everyone's reward, Boss Zhang will take it back and distribute it to everyone." ”

After Zhang Meng finished speaking, he clasped his hands into fists and saluted the drummers around him, saying, "Everyone has worked hard, please follow Boss Huang back." ”

After Zhang Meng finished speaking, he turned his face and ordered: "The rest of the people, board the car immediately." ”

Seeing Boss Huang leave with the drummers and arrange for everyone to get into the carriage, Zhang Meng breathed a long sigh of relief, turned his face to Meng Da and said, "How about it, Meng Taishou, let's go on the road too?" ”

Meng Da listened, turned over his horse, and said, "General Zhang is urging behind, and I will lead the way in front." ”

Meng Da said this, bent down and stretched out his thumb to Zhang Meng for a pause, made a praising expression, and then said: "General Zhang, good job!" You can do whatever you want. It's amazing. With that, pat the horse and walk ahead.

Meng Da walked a few steps, then turned his horse's head and came back to Zhang Meng and said: "From here, I will go to Shangyong County, all the way to my henchmen's station, and no one dares to check anything." General Zhang just had to rest assured that he was on the way. If there are pursuers behind me, I'll deal with it. ”

Zhang Meng listened to it, handed over the words and said: "Meng Taishou can move forward with confidence, in case there are chasing soldiers coming from behind, don't bother Meng Taishou, Zhang Meng will discipline them and never return." ”

At this time, all the funeral personnel had already taken off their mourning clothes and packed up their ropes, and when they heard Zhang Meng's order, more than 20 carriages carrying hundreds of personnel from Sima Yi's family squeaked and marched on the official road from Luoyang to Shangyong County.

At noon, Zhang Meng arranged for everyone to eat a few mouthfuls of dry food on the side of the road, and then urged everyone to hurry.

Before leaving, Zhang Meng was afraid that Sima Yi in the coffin would make a mistake, so he came over to ask the two brothers Sima Zhao, who were guarding the coffin: "The old man has no sound inside?" ”

The brothers replied again and again that they didn't, but Zhang Meng was still not at ease when he heard it, so he came over and knocked on the coffin board with his hand, and asked, "Old man Sima, old man Sima, did you hear me?" ”

After calling several times and not seeing an echo, Zhang Meng felt nervous in his heart, and said to himself: "Don't really suffocate the old Sima Yi!" Zhang Meng muttered to himself, felt his head get big for a while, and muttered: "If you suffocate Sima Yi to death, things will be messed up!" Another thought: "There is nothing left to suffocate, and since then he has eliminated his threat to the Shu Kingdom!" ”

Thinking of this, Zhang Meng boarded the carriage, stretched out his hand to untie the lid of the coffin, and when he looked over, he saw Sima Yi like a dead pig curled up on a straw mat, sleeping soundly, snoring evenly, and he didn't even hear Zhang Meng's voice.
